Trial

after enjoying their morning meal, nic and Charlotte began to go deeper into the cave.

the flames were getting less ferocious and after they had finish eating it had already died leaving only that of ash.

after walking for some time nic had finally came back to the opening in the cave wall, but looking inside he could see thousands more of the eggs than their were outside.

looking inside he could see that it had a strange blue glow, it gave the room light, but he couldn't see much else to the room because of the numerous amount of eggs.

nic did not hesitated and began to cut down the eggs, "DRAGONS FINAL BREATH" after cutting down four hundred eggs nic performed the attack once more.

Charlotte placed her hands over her eyes the moment nic said these words.

inside of the room the thousands of eggs started to burn, the smoke covered the entirety of the room nic was unable to see inside and was left without hope of entering.

"alright we will come back later" nic thought as he grabbed his sword and tightened his grip on Charlotte assuring that she would not fall.

she did not pay attention to nic and was playing with his horns, it seems that over time they would become more close.

...

"it's time for your trial!" a large gorilla beastman approached a cell of two silhouettes that were on the floor.

"finally" mion mumbled as he was tired of being kept in the cell.

the cells were dark and they were hardly fed they were lucky that water was falling from the roof our they would have already died.

the gorilla beastman was the prison warden of the southern prison, he wore a black leather suit as though he was a part of a bike gang, spikes can be seen on the shoulders, his body was big and muscular, and his head was that of a gorilla's.

"Get up, wasting the generals time is a crime that would be added to your trials" the gorilla shouted with its booming voice.

mion and dona forced their bodies to climb out of the cell, although they were only in the cells for a few days, the little scraps of food was only enough to keep them from dying, they were weak.

the gorilla did not waste no time and immediately began to place chains that bind their legs and hands.

"state your names" he said as he looked at the two of them.

mion who looked as though he lost a major amount of his fat looked at the gorilla, when they had first arrived they had already told their names to the gorilla, it seems that he chose to ignore them.

"Mion .." but before mion could finish giving his name the gorilla stopped him.

the gorilla then pointed at dona, she also gave her name but was stopped after she gave her first name, "it seems they have no interest in our titles" she thought.

*thug* the gorilla pulled a chain that was attached to both of their hands.

"follow!" the gorilla shouted as he pulled the chain and lead them to the exit.

they passed many other empty cell rooms as they left the area, after walking for a couple of minutes they came to stairs leading up a narrow path, at the end their was an enormous door and light could be seen protruding out of the gaps in the door.

they were dragged up the stairs and as they came close to the door it suddenly began to open.

they seen a majestic corridor, gold can be seen portrayed on every thing that was to be metal and paintings of many other beastmen sitting in a throne can be seen.

the corridor had many doors and although white was the color mostly seen, the gold and the paintings gave it a unique taste as though they were entering the home of royalty.

it was beautiful, the more they walked the more doors they seen, the doors were on both side of the corridor and were white with golden handles.

mion and dona did not notice that they were paying so much attention on the room that they were slowing down.

"what do you think your watching" the gorilla said as he pulled the chain with most his strength and pulled dona and mion to the ground.

"as I said, wasting the generals time is a crime" the gorilla then began to walk immediately after the two stood up.

after awhile of walking they finally came to another large door at the end of the corridor, this door was guarded by to large giraffe beastmen that were standing infront of the door.

one holding a spear and the other holding a large sword other than this they were identical, they were at the same height of the door, they reach that of twelve feet, although they were giraffe beastmen their necks were not long and was the same size as a normal humans neck, they were dressed head to toe in silver medieval knights armor.

the gorilla came to a stop at the door and stood at a salute infront of the door, the rhinos did not move

"permission to enter" he said as he waited for a reply.

"you may enter!" a voice was heard on the other side and the two large beastmen moved to the side as the door began to open.

he dragged mion and dona into the room who were busy looking at the two large beings.

they entered a room where their was one throne and an enormous opening behind, they remembered seeing the room, it was in the pictures they had seen in the corridors,but they did not pay attention to it but on the man who was sitting In the throne wearing a fox mask.

"sir I bring to you prisoners mion and dona" the gorilla reported as he stood at attention.

"crimes?"

"they intrude on our great lands without permission"

"unbind them they pose no threat to me"

the gorilla beastmen do as he was told he did not even question the one before him.

"you may leave then" he waved his hand and the gorilla left the room and the door shut behind him.

the room was silent as mion and dona looked at the mask man that was on the throne, a hand was to the side of his face, as he sat in the throne lazily.

"intruders are normally sentenced to a year of labor.." he began to mumble to himself but the room echoed his voice and break the silence.

mion and dona was pleased by what they were hearing although it is a year of labor it was better than what they thought would have happened to them.

but then he continued "but you all severely injured two of our beastmen, and wiped out my entire scout squad, not to mention damaging my forest" mion only known about the first but the rest he had no idea what the man was speaking about.

"Your.."

"speaking in the trial without permission a year of labor" mion was going to speak but was silenced by these words.

mion started to feel wierd as his thoughts started to feel clouded and wierd thoughts entered his mind, he thought that it was just because he was nervous and try to calm himself.

"TRIAL END!, your punishment shall be as follows" the mask man then stand and walked towards mion,

"you shall be a slave to the beastmen nation until the day you cannot draw breath, this shall be the perfect and most humane type of punishment that can be given dont you agree?" he said coldly as he stood before mion.

mion life flashed before his eyes, as royalty he known very much how cruel it is to be a slave, he dropped to his knees and wanted to say something but was unable to he was afraid of the man infront of him and he did not know why.

he then walked to dona "your punishment shall.." but before he could finish he could see mion darting for the opening, he turned his head and smiled under his mask as he seen mion jump out of the opening.

"perfect" he said, laughs soon can be heard on all sides of the room, as many beastmen appeared in the room including the Hellhounds squad, it was as if they walked out of the walls, dona was in shock as she did not know what was happening.

"brilliant performance my love, your gift is as splendid as ever"

"haha, that's our general for you"

"cant believe they thought that just anyone can see our general"

"what did you expect humans are just dumb creatures"

"ENOUGH!" he silenced the crowd, "Hellhounds chase him to the monster den immediately, my gift would not last long now that he left the room"

"Yes Sir"
