After Oliver entered the dojo two figures crept out of a corner and nodded at each other before fading away.
***
" I'm here as promised miss reed " Oliver voiced out.
Seeing the combat hall dark...
' What's going on where in the world is Miss Reed ' he wondered looking around him but all he could see was pitch black and also he noticed the hall was unusual quiet.
A scary thought came to his head ' I'm I in an independent space '
Clatter! Clatter! Clatter! running footsteps sounded around him, while some materialized out of the darkness.
" Who the hell are you people? " Oliver asked taking a fighting stance.
A taller figure stepped out as a huge muscular figure walked out of the group.
" You're Oliver twist right? " The muscular man asked.
" It's me "
" Hahaha good good " The muscular man laughed. " Follow me "
" Why ?"
" Because I want you to "
" I'm not coming then."
A surprise look flashed in the man's eyes ' Why does he not even feel intimidated or perhaps maybe he doesn't know who I am '
" Hmph…hey lad do you know who I am? "
" No "
Puffing out his chest he raised his voice to the loudest " I am the second leader of the unknown "
" Mtchewww you're not even the first, it disappointing "
' GRRR, I'll fucking kill this brat ' He thought watching Oliver's unbothered expression.
" It best if you follow me now lad or I ---" The second leader didn't finish when a new voice interrupted.
" It won't be necessary" A feminine voice said as footsteps could be heard Miss Reed walked out of the darkness.
" Unknown leader " The shadows all bowed extremely shocked and scared except the second leader who opened his mouth to speak " lead… "
" Hold it " Miss reed interrupted turning to Oliver. " You did a good job apprentice"
" Thank you miss reed " Oliver blushed
' APPRENTICE '
Those surrounding Oliver including the second leader were shocked because Miss Reed never take apprentices even the mages barely see her ...and now she's taken an apprentice.
" So what happened here apprentice "
" Leader it not… what you… "
" Did I give you the permission to talk! " Miss Reed said glaring at him.
" He tried to take me away force fully " Oliver said pouting in a pitiful way.
" Is that so Mr wulfgar "
" Lea…"
" Get out of here before I changed my mind! " Miss reed yelled in one seconds everyone disappeared as the lights came back on.
' Just watch your back brat I'll make sure you pay for this humiliation and you too reed ' The second leader muttered in his head exiting the building.
Later on that day miss Reed taught him how to use a pistol, placing several bottles as targets Oliver took aim and due to his perception been high it always meet the bulls eye.
It six in the evening when miss reed released Oliver ...
Down the alleyway was Oliver whistling towards his apartment when he noticed the place was unusually quiet.
He paused looking left and right repeatedly to see if he was followed but no one was around him. Walking a bit further, he turned around but still there was nothing.
Just as Oliver was about to start heading for the apartment as quick as he could, a hand suddenly yanked him back ward.
" Hey lad surprised to see us "
" What...wh?"
Seeing this person Oliver immediately activated [ Partial transformation ]
Because all instincts were telling him to run... but he didn't reach one hundred and twenty feet.
When he fell again, Olivers eyes turned bright yellow as he slashed at the dark figured assilant who in turn grabbed his clawed fingers and broke them all at once.
[ - 5 HP ]
' Kkiiaarrhh ' He screamed in agony, still not giving up he kept running about to reach his apartment block when the figures appeared before him again.
" You can run but can't run from me forever"
" Who sent you "
" You'll know when you wake again " One of the figure said conjuring a large energy blast Oliver wanted to dodge but it seemed impossible.
' PHEW ' The energy blasted right into Oliver's chest.
Bang! Oliver landed twenty-five feets away hitting his head on a hard surface he passed out instantly.
[ Regeneration activated ]
The assilants who threw the blast walked towards Oliver's body dropping him on his left shoulder.
Oliver's face were smeared in blood, the blood from his chest... The second assilant snapped his fingers within seconds a car appeared in front of them ...in the car was the black man, the black man that kidnapped elizabeth.
" You're too late Kelly" One of the assilant muttered taking a sit behind the car so did the other after dropping Oliver in the trunk.
" It was easier than I thought" The assilant that kidnapped Oliver took off his mask it turned out to be one of the medicals that came to pick Paine up to the school hospital.
" Drive faster Kelly young miss will be waiting"
