Beast Evolution



"Then we should begin immediately, it seems all the knights have been gathered," Selena said.

All the surviving knights were gathered in an open space in the academy and in front of them stood Alfred and James.

Alfred stood there looking at the knights gathered, before the attack the academy wouldn't be able to contain all the knights in the city.

"Reinforcements are on their way from the capital and they'll take at least a day on horse to get here so we'll have to protect the city in case of another attack, we have food here in the academy and they would be distributed soon as the city had been destroyed" Alfred spoke.

"I have a question?" one of the men there spoke.

"Yes," Alfred said.

"Were all the Intruders captured or killed?" the man asked.

"We captured two and one of them fled, but the rest are all dead," Alfred said.

"Uhmmm...what about Authur?" a young man asked in a low voice but he was close enough for Alfred to hear.

"Authur the head of the bullmar academy was gravely injured and he didn't make it," Alfred said with his head down.

"What!!"

"That's can't be!!!"

Mumbling sounds filled the academy as the knights were shocked at Authur's death, even though tons of knights died he wasn't supposed to be one of them and none of them knew what happened.

Kaan saw him on his way to Draco but he was too consumed with anger to know that Authur was barely clinging to life.

A female knight ran to Alfred immediately and whispered in his ears, "The king is on his way"

"What!! on his way here!!" Alfred shouted.

"Yes," the lady spoke.

"We need all the uninjured knights to assemble at the city gate, archers get in position on the city wall and the rest of the knights guard the gate," Alfred said immediately.

"What's wrong?" James whispered in Alfred's ears.

"The king is coming here" Alfred whispered back.

"Huh!! why?" James was surprised.

"How would I know, move out" Alfred shouted.

"We haven't eaten anything yet" a knight spoke.

"I know and I also haven't eaten anything, no one in the city has eaten anything since the battle started, move out, food would be delivered to you guys," Alfred said.

The few knights that were gravely injured were still in the medical center while the one that sustained minor injuries joined the rest of the knights at the city gate.

Alfred walked to where all the first-year and second-year students were, the third-year students joined the battle and a few of them lost their lives but they were already knights.

"Move back to your dorms till you are told otherwise," Alfred said and walked away immediately.

The students quickly moved back to their dorms, but a few of them waited behind, Lily refused to go back till she knew Ray was coming back for sure.

The nine of them waited for a while till the senior knights were quite far away then they followed Alfred and James behind, they were heading to one of the buildings in the academy, and Kaan and Selena were nowhere to be found.

"Are we supposed to be sneaking after the knights, we are supposed to stay in our dorms" Martha said.

"Shush...I wonder why the knights were sent to the city gate, is the enemy going to attack again" Crystal asked.

"Why would you think that, if they knew the enemy would attack again they would also be there," Gabriel said.

"But then again why are we sneaking after the knights?" Ivan asked.

"Wait, they are entering that building" Arya spoke.

"I think that where that guy is, the guy that is in Ray's body," Lily said.

"So somebody is in Ray's body and the main Ray is dead?" Crystal spoke with disbelief.

"I know it sounds crazy but I think there is a way he can be brought back to life, maybe they are trying to bring him back to life," Lily said as they moved closer to the building.

"Selena said it was dangerous and she wasn't going to carry on with it," Gabriel said.

"Then why are they hiding in that building," Lily said.

"I don't think they are hiding, we are the ones spying on them," Jack said as the group reached the door.

The door was opened just slightly cause the knights weren't expecting anyone to follow them, Lily peeped through the opening but she couldn't see anything as Alfred and James were at the other side of the large room.

"I can't see anything, we should open the door wide enough to stick our heads," Lily said.

"Leave that to me," Ivan said and the rest of them were surprised but they moved back a little and Ivan stepped forward.

Ivan held the iron door and slowly he moved it backward and forward and then backward and forward without making a single sound till the opening was wide enough for them to stick their heads in.

Lily, Arya, and Gabriel were the first three to stick their heads in and four figures stood at the end of the large room, Alfred, James, Selena, and Kaan.

The four of them were speaking to themselves but it wasn't loud enough for Ray's friends to hear what they were saying.

"I can't hear anything?" Arya whispered.

"Neither can I, we need to get closer to them " Lily whispered back.

"Closer to them, how do you expect us to get closer to them, we are lucky we haven't been caught" Gabriel whispered.

"But I was right, that guy has been released, I don't think they are thinking of bringing Ray back," Lily said, "I'm not going to sit back and do nothing"

Lily removed her head from the door and opened it fully, Gabriel and Arya quickly removed their heads, but even after Lily opened the door, none of the knights reacted.

"Are you mad" Jack spoke as he held her before she could enter the building.
