Chase woke in his dormitory with a screaming headache. His whole body felt like it went a full twelve round boxing match with Chuck Norris. Needless to say he was really sore.

He slowly sat up in his bed rubbing at his temples in an attempt to massage away the headache that was currently pounding upon his brain. That's when he felt something either side of him. He looked to each side and immediately began to freak out. On his left was Chloe and Ember. On his right was Lisa, all in their nightwear. He immediately checked himself to realise that he was only in his boxers!

He immediately scrambled out of bed and noticed Brentwood snoozing on the chair next to his desk. The three girls were still sleeping softly on his bed, so he clambered around getting himself dressed. As soon as he did so he shook Brent awake.

Brent looked extremely confused and when his eyes focused on Chase he broke out a smile.

(Brent) Hey man how you feeling?

(Chase) Why the hell are they all in my bed? *points to his bed with the girls still snoozing peacefully*

(Brent) Oh they didn't want to leave you and also they are like totally head over heals for you.

(Chase) Damn it, look I'll be in the cafeteria. Tell them I left to clear my head.

Brent nodded and as Chase was about to leave he placed his hand on Chase's shoulder.

(Brent) Almost forgot, as you are our leader and everything Principal Dracula told me to give you this.

Brent hands Chase an envelope with Chase scrawled across it in black ink. Chase nods and leaves his dormitory and begins making his way to the cafeteria. As soon as he entered the room fell silent. He could hear whisperings from some students.

(???) I heard he is a leader of some really powerful team.

(???) I heard he can control some demons!

(???) Oh my God I really want to be on his team, they have the most awesome name too, the Riders! So cool!

Chase sighed and grabbed a tray of food before sitting down at a table by himself. He began digging in when his eyes landed on the envelope. Curiosity overtook him as he opened the letter.

Dear Chase,

I do hope you are well, the teachers and I were watching your progress in the forest and needless to say we were impressed. You seem to be a natural leader and therefore seeing as you are team leader it makes it necessary to acquaint yourself with the other leaders. I shall have a meeting set up tonight for you and them.

On a more pressing matter, it has come to my attention that last night during the trials a girl from a now expelled team was abandoned by her team. I will not expel her for those reasons but I would like her to join your team. Please meet me at my office at your earliest convenience.

Wishing you well,

Dracula.

Brent finished reading the letter and folded it up and placed it inside his jacket. He finished his meal and was about to get up when a hand grabbed his head and slammed it into the cold metal table.

His head was pulled back and a big, brutish Orc stood behind him.

(???) You think you're so special, well time to break you down little man.

The Orc grabbed Chase and flung him across the cafeteria and into the wall. As soon as he hit the floor three other Orcs began beating on him mercilessly. He could feel his anger taking over. In an explosion of hellfire the Ghost Rider appeared. The Orcs stepped back in fear.
