Now that the chimeras have become part of Xing, they've gotten used to the life. But, every good thing usually comes to a stop. Well so did this. Someone told the military that some chimeras were still alive and kicking. And what did the blue do? Went on the hunt for them.

Okay so this is the sequel. You guys probably remember how everything ended right? Well this will be a year later. You can see the preview in the extra chapter from the previous part. And I know it's says 'Greed' in the characters but he'll only arrive later =/

Anyway, on to the story.

Sorry for any grammar mistakes. See any I keep repeating, warn me. Enjoy the story.

Chapter 1


Now, after a good year has passed, the chimeras have all gotten used to the Xing way. They did their job as Ling Yao's bodyguards as well as Xing elites.

In fact, everyone in Xing loved them. They were a symbol that not only their kind can be so noble.

And although all of this, they never forgot their roots and friends.

"You guys remember what today is right?" Martel asked from the sofa.

"Yea, how can we forget?" Dorochet answered and looked in his half empty glass.

"It's the day Greed freed us from Laboratory 5." Roa said sitting at the dining table reading the news.

"Well if you wish, I could ask master to give you a day off. I'm sure he would allow it," Lan Fan said sitting across of Martel.

"Thanks, but no thanks. We'll be fine," the ox chimera said looking at the female bodyguard.

"No, no you need it. I insist," came a male voice as the owner stepped into the room.

"Well gee, we'd love to, but who'd watch after you?" the dog mixed male asked.

"I still have Lan Fan," Ling answered and smiled.

Just then, a small man came running in the room.


"Guys, you got another mission," he said and handed the non-chimera girl a scroll.

"And here we thought we had nothing to do," the only female chimera said sitting up.

"What's out mission?" the katana user asked as he kneeled in front of the emperor along with his co-workers.

"There will be a feast… for the Chang family… since May's birthday is toady… But during these festivities… other royal siblings will try… and assassinate her…" the ruler explained getting weaker and weaker.

"So you want us to protect her from assassination?" the dagger wielder asked.

"Yes *cough* *cough* *cough* The feats *cough* is this afternoon *cough*" he added before going into a coughing fit.

A helper quickly ran to him and gave him some medicine while the bodyguards walked out the double door.

"I see, well it's not uncommon. All of us have tried to kill the other to try and secure the throne," the prince explained.

"Even you?" the sword swinger asked.

"No not really. Unless locking Tao Dan in a closet counts," he said and laughed at the memory.

"Well anyway… Who'll be attending? Anyone we need to keep a close eye on?" Dorochet asked.

"Every royal chilled from the 50 hereditary clans will come. As for whom you should watch there are a few: Ai Fang a female with white hair. She is the eldest princess. Then there's Hu Li – a man with a scar across his right cheek. And last one is Meng Dai. He is the most ruthless one of all, thinking he's above everyone else," Lan Fan explained.

"And how does he look?" Roa asked.

"He always wears a black scarf around his head," Yao finished.


"Okay then. We each take one of the siblings while Fan takes May?" Martel asked.

"Sure, but who'll be watching the prince?" Bido asked (yes he's there)

"Don't worry about me. I won't even be attending," he answered a smile on his face.

"Huh? Why not?" the lizard chimera asked.

"My father wants me to learn some of the emperor's manners. He fears I'll have to take his place before I'm 18."

"Wait, they'll let you get the throne before that?" the white haired male asked.

"Yes, although my uncle was against it, due to my father's bad health, they decided I'll be emperor when he passes."

"Wow… well I don't know what to say?" the one mixed with man's best friend was surprised.

"Well we better get going. See you later Ling," the cold-blooded one said as she walked out of the room.


"Well we better get in position. I'll take the far left corner where May will be sitting. Dorochet you'll have to move around a bit, since Meng will never sit still. And if you smell anything wrong inform us immediately."

The said elite nodded and went to his position. The black-haired girl then turned to the white haired male: "You'll be watching Hu. He is mostly on the right side of the table. Make sure to keep him from adding any of his 'secret' souse to any of the food."

The large man gave a nod and took his place.

"Leaving me with the girl hm? Where's she usually?" the brown-haired female asked.

"Bathroom… She usually goes there every 10 minutes or so. No one knows what she does, but can't take anything to chance."

"So… stalk her to the bathroom?"

The warrior blushed a bit from shame, but nodded.

"I think I'd rather trade with the guys… But a job's a job. You owe me a drink," she sighed and ran off to her lookout.

"Good, everyone's in position. Now, the guests should arrive soon. Get ready," Lan said to herself and got to her spot.

After a min or so, the royals started coming and each took a seat. The table was mead for around 80 people so they had enough room. The last to enter was the youngest of all the children – May.


Well 1st one down. It was a bit boring, but had to be done. How do you like it? Think it'll be any good? Review and tell me. Thanks for reading
