Primal Outcasts

Chapter 2: Journey to Lemuria

It had been a few weeks since his fight against Bait for the first time, discovering his mysterious but dark power that seemed to have no control over it. That left Kuma thinking of what to do, he lives in Animal kingdom and he's happy but feels like something is missing and that's when he decided on something.

"I have decided what to do but I should talk to Dad first. It's the only way." Kuma mumbled to himself as He gets up from his remodeled bed and left his remodeled bedroom which got destroyed by Bait's machine army.

Kuma passed by few still destroyed rooms with animals still working on them, as he can hear them talking as he passed by.

"Yes right there. God can't believe Bait did this."

"I heard the chimera did the final blow but I think it's his fault."

"Yeah Maybe he provoked Bait to do this so we can see Him as a hero. What a joke."

"Could be... maybe mind control?"

"Sounds about right!"

"The guards laughed together as they get back to work."

He heard everything but he can't blame them, they know nothing about his kind as he walked away, quickly trying to get to the throne room as he didn't seen where he was going at the corner, where he bumped at the large person and bumped.

"Oh sorry! I didn't see you there!" Kuma said as his eyes widen as he saw a tiger shark standing there menacing with a spear at his right hand.

The tiger shark have a bit of blue skin with blank stripes with red eyes, a gray beard and a green vest with a green tattoo on his left arm and a bandage wrapping around the tail and a shark tooth necklace

"Oh! It's fine. It's hard to see around corners is it?" The shark said as he offered a hand to pick up Kuma.

"Oh nah it's my fault for running fast, sir" Kuma said as he got confused why the stranger was so nice to him but accepted the hand and get back up, and during the hand exchange, Kuma sensed a tingling vibe from the shark but quickly retreated the hand as he gets up. "Y-yeah I'm fine! I'm sorry, who are you?"

"Oh we haven't met yet right? You know General Max right? I am Laxus, known as the Commander Laxus who is under command of General Max. I just got accepted as the commander and work under General Max." Laxus said as he proudly claimed the title.

"Oohhh I heard he got a new Commander. So that's you Huh? Congratulations on making it... I heard he's a bit difficult." Kuma said.

"Oh he was. I'm sure he's just making sure I got it and all, since the war and all. And you are King's son yes? Kuma, right? Pleasure to meet you." Laxus said with a smile.

"Yes, that's me. Excuse me for asking but aren't you.... Little old for commander title? You look like you could be my Dad's age." Kuma asked nervously as hope he didn't offend the shark.

"Oh I get this a lot but we sharks age fast. Believe it or not I'm young at heart." Laxus said as he rubbed his grey beard.

"Oh really? I didn't know that. Well not judging! But excuse me I gotta go see my Dad. You know where is he?" Kuma said.

"He's in the War room talking to General Max. We're here to make progress in the war. Against.... Ummmm...." Laxus said as he tried not to say the word.

"My kind? Yeah I get that a lot." Kuma shrugged.

"No no it's not just yours. But others clans as well. " Laxus stuttered.
