I don't own anything, except for Lee. Sorry for the grammar mistakes. Enjoy.
CH. 9 'I don't believe it'
"This is impossible… those were some of my elite warriors. And she defeated them so easily… It's like they are not even human…" Lee though, as he looked at the chimeras.
"Uncle? The last trial?" Ling reminded.
"Oh yes…For the last one, one of you must be able to withstand high attacks. You must be able to defend your master with your own body. And like the other two trials, one or more can accept this."
"Finally my turn," Roa said and stretched his arms.
"Got get them tiger em or ox," Dorochet joked and smirked.
"Show them what you're made of big guy," Martel added.
"He can't seriously thing he'll survive this?" Lee said to himself as Roa stepped to the center.
Once the large man stopped at the center, a gate opened to reveal a man. He was almost twice as big as Roa. He had large biceps and a cocky grin on his face.
"So you little man I got to fight? They messing with me?" he laughed.
"Juts get this over with," Roa said and sighed.
"You little man want to get dead? I help with that," the man said and pulled his hand back.
After a second he pushed it forward and hit the 'little' man straight in the stomach. He was smirked, hence wasn't expecting Roa to just stand there.
"W-Wha?" he said stunned.
"Is that all you got?" the smaller man asked.
The muscled man shouted in anger and started hitting Roa, punch after punch. All the while Roa didn't show any sing of pain.
After the 32nd punch, the Xing man was exhausted and fell to the ground.
"IMPOSSIBLE! THAT WAS THE STRONGEST MAN IN MY ARMY!" Lee yelled inside his mind as his warrior fell.
"Whooo!"
"They passed another one!"
"No one's come this far!"
"They're not normal!"
"Can't wait too see the decision the royals made!"
"Of course they're getting accepted!"
The crowd cheered as the chimeras finished the last trial.
"Looks like the crowd loves us," the dog chimera commented as his friend joined them.
"Well it all depends on what the royals say…" the snake one said and looked at the family.
"They… passed… all of it…" Uncle Lee stated and looked with open eyes at the Amestriens.
"T-They did it… I… I'm so happy!" Bido shouted as tears of joy streamed down his cheeks.
"Yes and that means they deserve to become my bodyguards," Yao said.
"Father you agree do you not?" May asked and looked at her parent.
And what she saw surprised her and every other Xing.
The emperor was laughing. At first it was a smile, then a light chuckle and now he was actually laughing.
"I can not believe it… They passed all the trials… Even some of our own… could not do it. Yet these new comers… have finished in record time… They do not deserve to be bodyguards, but elite warriors of Xing!" he almost yelled and stood up.
And again, the crowd went wiled. Cheers were being yelled all over, shouts of 'congratulation' were shouted as some even threw flowers paddles.
"Is this really happening?" Roa asked as they heard the emperor.
"If this is a dream, don't wake me up," Martel said and looked at the crowd.
"Someone pinch me," Dorochet couldn't believe it.
"It is happening. It's not a dream," Ling assured as he joined the chimeras in the arena.
"You shall be given appropriate armor and weapons for your rank."
As the arena began to empty, the royal family and the chimeras gathered in the throne room. There, at the start of the stairs stood a man. He had a beautiful sword in his hand. And before the man three figures kneeled.
At the left was a small man, in the middle a woman and on the right a large man.
"Now, with the power wasted in me as the emperor of Xing, I gave you the rank of elite warriors as well as my son's bodyguards," he spoke and put the blade on each shoulder of each of the figures.
"Now stand, Dorochet, Martel and Roa," he added as they did what he said.
Martel wore a black and red Xing (japans) shirt and red pants. She had a piece of plated armor on her chest as well as two longer ones on her legs. She also wore a golden dragon head on her left shoulder.
Dorochet had a sleeves black top and a red scarf. He had black pants and two pieces of metal plates on his thighs, both arms and one longer on his right leg. He had a dragon head on his high boots (his knees).
Roa had a one sleeve (left arm) red and black shirt. He also had a dragon head (like Martel) on his left shoulder. He had black pants and a half coat over his left leg colored red.
As they stood with pride and honor, in the corner was a man. His eyes were filled with hate and envy. He was the only one that was not glad to have more warriors. Because now, he would need to worry about them defending Ling.
"You are a nuisance. And I will find out what you are," he said to him self as Lee exited the room.
