714 Capture the flag (1/2)
”What!” Rokene snapped back. ”Are you not happy with me or something?”
Without realising it, Xander was giving Rokene a strange look and Amy quickly pushed him off to the side.
”No, of course we're happy.” Said Amy. ”As you know though, we're just a little cautious. After the scene yesterday, we're just a little worried that they might have sent someone to disrupt our plans. You understand, right?”
Amy said this as she approached Rokene and gently placed her finger on his chin and slowly started to run it down his chest.
'Oh, is she trying to charm him?' Xander thought.
However, when she reached the midsection of his chest, Rokene had grabbed her hand.
”If I was to allow a subclass to charm me, I wouldn't really be allowed to call myself a decedent now, would I? You guys don't have to be cautious of me, I'm from the Fifth family. I'm only second from the bottom of the barrel, just above you.”
The Fifth family, due to their weak ability, were mocked by the other families as well. If it wasn't for the fact that their leader was kind hearted, then there wouldn't be many who chose to be loyal to them either.
”Sorry about that, come on let's go.” Xander said.
”I don't need your pity.” Rokene said, as he saw the brief look Xander gave him. ”I am my own person, and just like Quinn did, I'm going to do what I want.”
Punching him on the shoulder, Erin gave him a smile.
”Then let's show the other teams who's boss.”
Once all the groups had been assembled, they were led into the forest. This forest was explored by a lot of the vampire kids and there weren't dangerous beasts inside it, from time to time, one or two might appear but that was all.
However, this area was a very well known area by the descendants, because it was where they had their lessons before. It seemed like the descendants would be relied upon more in this game than they first thought.
The groups were given an additional ten minutes to split up all over the forest. Then, just outside the forest, a computer system was set up, which had information with a tag on all the flag's keeping track of points. The teachers had spread out in the forest themselves, dividing themselves into two groups.
One group stood around the outside perimeter, it was the area the students weren't allowed to go past. While the other teachers were asked to look over the students in case anything serious happened.
A flair was shot up into the sky, signalling the game had begun.
”What do we do, should we attack or defend?” Amy asked.
”Why don't you fly up and check around to see if there is anyone coming our way?” Xander said.
”No, that will only make us a target.” Erin replied. ”And it looks like we won't need to do any scouting of our own.”
Looking at Rokene, he had summoned a black rabbit with a horn sticking out of it's head. It hopped off Rokene's shoulder and started to run off, soon it came back.
”There's a team not too far from here, He will lead the way.” Rokene said.
”Not too bad after all.” Xander said. Realising that it didn't matter if Rokene was strong or not, as this wasn't an event that relied on strength, but one that focused on using everyone's skills and teamwork.
When they eventually got close, Erin closed her eyes and she could see all of their positions. If anyone was hiding through the thick trees, she could see them.
After regrouping they came up with a plan and it was using Rokene's black rabbit. Judging by the auras, Erin could easily tell which was the strongest out of all of them. And the strongest would most likely be the decedent.
Although the decedent didn't have a flag of his own, that didn't matter. The black rabbit came out and the first thing it did was fire out an electric shock towards the decedent.
He blocked the attack easily, but it was never their goal in the first place. Soon after the black rabbit was off running at a great speed and was being chased, leaving the others behind.
Some of them were hidden, but Erin felt where they were quickly taking their flag, and the others positions were located with ease. They had captured all four of the flags and ran away with no trouble at all.
The four of them met up at a meeting point they had decided beforehand, but Rokene was nowhere to be seen. At that moment, ruffling through the leaves the black rabbit had appeared squealing to them all.
