Leo narrowed his eyes, "Come out, and keep your weapons down."

He grumbled, as Flame tilted his scythe on an angle. The faint rustling of leaves in the night was all that was breaking the eerie silence.

"Lousy bandits." Flame scoffed. Before he knew it, a rock came headed his way, Flame barely dodged it, as a tall boy poked his head out of the bush.

"Who're you calling bandit, bandit?!" He growled.

Leo frowned, "Wait, you think we're bandits?!" He lashed his sword angrily.

Flame narrowed his eyes, "We just beat off all those Crawlers. You're welcome!" Flame watched another head stick out of the bush.

"You beat them off, that's true, but we killed the Female Beta." The other boy smirked. "I'm Aaron, and that's Matthew. Leave our territory." They added not bothering to introduce themselves any further Aaron's steely cold eyes sent a strong glare. Flame frowned and lifted up his scythe.

"This isn't your territory, punk." Flame added as a big full moon covered the sky, sending its light splattering down upon them.

"You have no right to be here!" Matthew yelled. More growling was heard form the shadows.

"Run!" Leo shouted "it is the Crawlers they are here, and they will not stop coming until the city falls". The boys all scattered in different directions and they avoided the bloodthirsty Crawlers. The Crawlers tried to catch them with there huge red paws and beedy eyes looking sharply at there target.

Flame scrambled out of the crawler's way, Flame dodged another fitting blow from the Crawler, he shifted his scythe, and aimed a fitting blow to the Crawler's head. Leo used is power full ice to the Alpha down with a red ice block blowing up to the Alpha's face.

They dictated their carriers into being warriors. You guys want to work together said flame they nodded and went off to eagle academy to see if they could get in. The entree test was set and each of them went in
although Leo was the strongest, he appeared to be losing until he used those ice blocks of his bringing life to the battle.

Each of them were glad that they got in but eagle academy seemed to be, from the reports of the others a bit behind than the other academy's technology this seemed like disappointing news but then they learned why funds had been cut in the kingdoms due to war.
