Chrome's P.O.V

"Here kitty kitty kitty." Chrome taunted as he was in a stare down with the beast, "I won't bite." the lion then charged at him but Chrome quickly dodged to the right and kicked it pushing it in one centimeters. Suddenly the lion swiped at Chrome to which he barely dodged it by a mere inch, "A little help over here!" Rexir nodded and shot at the lion. The amount of arrows that was sticking on the beast made it look like a hedgehog.

"Hahahaha!" Chrome tried to stifle his laugh but failed miserably as he saw the lion, he looked back at Grace who was currently tending to Stella; both of them looking at him with disapproval, "Well excuse you, have you ever seen a lion looking like a hedgehog before?" Chrome asked both of them to which they shrugged and stood back up.

"Why don't you just shoot the damn thing?" Stella asked to Chrome who was busy dodging the beast's attacks, "It would make it a lot easier!" When Chrome heard this he frowned and ducked down under the lion and went behind it. He immediately rode on the beast's back and was holding on to its mane as it tried to shake him off.

"What in Notch's name are you doing?!" Corona asked as Grace finished tending to her, "We need to kill that thing. Not ride it!" Chrome frowned once again and accidentally weakened his grip on the beast's mane so he flew back, and landed on his rear. Chrome was trying to tame the giant beast for he remembered his master saying that this Goliath Beasts are very scarce but are very strong. Able to tame one means you'll be able to fight an army and would help Chrome drastically with his mission. He then stood up immediately and climbed on top of a tree.

"Rexir!" Chrome called out grabbing the attention of Rexir, "Lure the beast towards here!" to which he nodded and put back his bow and pulled out his lance. Rexir stabbed the beast grabbing its' attention and chased him, Rexir running backwards thrusting at the lion to keep his distance. Rexir was able to lure the beast to where Chrome intended and he leaped down and on to the lion's back. He immediately went for the mane and grabbed it tightly as the lion was wailing about trying to removed Chrome from its' back.

"Tire it out!" Chrome ordered to four, "We'll get it run out of breath!" the four hesitantly nodded as Chrome was dead serious about this, they then started to distract the beast. The more Chrome rode the struggling lion the more he can hear its' thoughts until it was strong enough that can telepathically talk to each other.

"Get off of me!" The lion growled, "No! I'm gonna tame you no matter what!" Chrome thought as he heard the lion chuckle "If you want to tame me so badly then let's see if you can last for two hours." the lion suddenly stopped.

"Hold your fire!" Chrome ordered to which the four hesitantly stopped attacking the beast. "Why have you stopped us?!" Grace said as she was holding on a bottle of poison. Chrome didn't answer, the lion immediately run away Chrome still in on it. The gang was about to chase after him but Chrome suddenly shouted, "Two hours!" as the lad and the beast disappear from their sights.

"Pesky human." the lion growled as it was running through the forest with incredible speeds, the lion then made a sharp turn to the left causing Chrome's lower body to go the other way. Chrome gripped tighter and successfully prevented himself from falling out of the beast. As the lion was speeding along Chrome noticed that the arrows stuck in its flesh was slowly being pushed out. He checked the marks that the arrows left on the beast but there was no sign of any pierced skin. He just chuckled as he remembers his master saying that Goliath Beasts are enchanted by Notch and Herobrine themselves. That's why they were bigger than normal.

Grace's P.O.V

"Two hours!" Chrome shouted out to them as him and the beast disappeared from their sight, "He's crazy to think that he can tame the beast." Corona commented on Chrome's sanity.

"I just hope his alright." Stella worried, "Of course he'll be alright! It's Chrome!" Grace said trying to cheer up her rival. This is only one of the things that could get Stella and Grace to agree with each other, one them would be Chrome talking to a woman and both of them would glare at him, "It's weird though... why would Motor send us in a forest that was in the territory of that beast?" With that said everyone realize what Motor intended and there were two things: First, Motor wants them all dead and second, Motor wants them to kill the beast.

"That damn weasel!" Corona stomped on the ground to let her frustration out, "If we get back over there I'll strangle him." Corona was strangling the air to emphasize her intentions. The girls were just frustrated and were letting out their anger while Rexir was calm and looked like he was thinking of possibilities. They all stopped what they were doing and immediately crouched down as they were hearing marching and war drums being drummed.

"What is going on?!" Stella asked panic in her tone, "The Royal March." Rexir growled as he tightened his gripped on his bow.

"The Royal what?!" Grace said panicking taking over, "If they find us we are in big trouble!"

"I don't think they need that much soldiers to kill us." Corona said giving them another though, "I think they're here for the beast."

"The beast?" Stella repeated in a questionable manner, "The one Chrome was riding on as we speak?" to which Corona nodded and looked around intensely. They all suddenly tensed up as they heard the drums and marching even louder.

"All right men!" a loud and deep voice said, "We will slay this beast for the safety of our people!" he said loudly as the people with him answered with a loud and roaring 'Raah!". The man continued, "Forward!"

"Where is Chrome right now?!" Stella asked even more concerned and was panicking even more, "Calm down Stella, that crazy bastard will be here sooner or later with whatever he was trying to do." Corona said trying to reassure Stella, "Plus would he die so easily?" Grace said helping to reassure Stella.

"Hehe, I guess you two are right, he wouldn't die th- WATCH OUT!" Stella shouted at the end as she saw a bunch of arrows fly high in the sky as it falls down on their location. The group immediately ran and took cover from a very large tree for cover and protection.

"Is it over?" Grace asked which triggered Rexir to lean to the side of the tree and saw an arrow heading towards him, immediately he dodged it and shook his head to the side with vigor.

"You criminal scums!" the same loud and deep voice called out to them, "Surrender now and you'll be spared from death!" to which they all sighed and got out of their cover, hands raised to show they won't do anything funny, "Drop your weapons!" to which they complied immediately. The same man then ordered several men to take them prisoners. To which the gang's mind was intent on one question "Where is Chrome?". They were now currently heading back to the Tundra Kingdom and with would take them at least two hours to get to The Tundra Border and an hour more to reach the Tundra Kingdom, when they were now meters away from the Tundra Border, a loud padded footsteps and clanging of armor and weapons was heard as suddenly a blur came out of a bush with a roar. The soldiers than looked at the blur and noticed the lion who was now clad in armor and sitting on top of it was Chrome.

"Chrome!" Stella and Grace called out in joy as they saw him who looked a bit tired, "Let them go you Royal-pain-in-the-ass!" Chromed growled as the lion growled as well, the general laughed as he pointed his sword at him, "Charge!"

"Get 'em." Chrome ordered the lion to which he complied immediately and made a battle roar as it charged, Chrome started to use his revolver and was shooting at the archers. He shot six archers then reloaded immediately after reloading he relocated his attention to the soldiers holding his companions; he jumped off the beast and shot at them. Chrome then ran towards them after killing the soldiers and immediately started cutting the binds off of them.

"Let's go!" Chrome said, "We have to teach these Royal bastards a thing or two." to which they nodded and immediately took their weapons, "Take out the archers first! They'll be the only threat against Leo."

"Leo?" Grace repeated the name in a questionative manner, "That's the name he had. Don't ask me how I know his name." Chrome dismissed the question immediately as he shot at six more archers. With all the archers now gone they directed their attention to the lion now known as Leo as he was fighting the waves of soldiers who charging at him. Grace saw the opportunity and threw potions of harming and poison in the sea of enemies though Leo was finally getting overwhelmed with the sheer amount of soldiers charging at him, fatigue taking over.

Chrome's P.O.V

"Tch!" Chrome said as he bit his thumb, "We aren't gonna last long." he said as he shot at a knight nearing Stella. Chrome wanted to kill off as many knight as possible while still able to keep the pure ones alive. Chrome placed his revolver back in its holster and unsheathes both of his swords, he then quickly stabs any soldiers near their vital organs or decapitates them completely, he double checked to see any pure ones but there was none so he continued on.. He then saw a large circular shadow cast over the battlefield, he looked up and shielded his eyes to see but was vague as it just looked like a giant shadow. He then heard the same twitchy voice.

"Bombs away!" It was none other than Motor, he was throwing bombs supporting Chrome and his allies, "Ahahahahaha!" the twitchy and really fast laugh echoed as he throws more bombs at the Royal Guards, "Stop moving! So I can hit you!"

"Seems he had held a grudge." Chrome thought to himself as he continues on avoiding the bombs in the process, they fought with relative ease because of Leo being a distraction and Motor's assistance. The contraption Motor was in floated down until it touched the floor, he got off of it and saw Chrome walked towards him.

"So." Chrome started, "What's this?" he asked pointing to Motor's contraption.

"Ah.~" Motor touched his contraption, "This is a hot air balloon." he then removed his hands on the contraption, "A good way to travel." he added. Chrome looked back and saw the girls stomping towards Motor showing signs of anger.

"Why did you sent us to die in the forest?!" Corona asked anger clearly shown in her tone, "You will explain before I strangle you to death!" she threatened Motor.

"I assure you." Motor said, "I did not send with the intention of getting all of you killed, I simply know you can handle yourself in combat, the beast being the unexpected surprised but I know the Royal March would be here to hunt the beast."

"Let me get this straight." Grace started, "You sent us here to get what you needed and you knew the Royal Guards would be here to hunt down the beast so you can kill the Royal Guards?"

"Yup!" Motor exclaimed, "That is what I planned. Every details except for the beast getting tamed."

"Well that's very clever of you Motor." Chrome praised, "But I suggest you run away from the girls this instance." Motor didn't get what he said until he saw the girls charged at him, he immediately went to his hot air balloon and flew away. Stella was drawing out her bow to which Chrome stopped her.

"Don't." Chrome said, "We also need to get to his house anyways. So save it until we get there." to which Stella groaned in annoyance.

"What about this cat?" Corona asked pointing towards the beast, "We can't just put smuggle him in the city."

"Oh..." Chrome suddenly realized the size of Leo, "Well I guess someone wo- what?! You're so tiny!" Chrome looked at Leon who became really small to the point to the size of Chrome's hands. Chrome immediately took him and placed him on his shoulders, "I guess there's no more problem with that!"

Author's Notes:

Chrome tamed the Goliath Lion while seeing the true nature of Motor when holding bombs. How will their adventure fare when he now has a Goliath Lion on his shoulders. We will never know! (unless you're me)
