Chapter 0267

Xander continues to growl at my rogue but moves closer to me so I can lean on him. It looks morelike a lover’s gesture than him holding me upright which my ego appreciates at the moment.

“These two are gone, your highness.” A warrior I don’t recognize says somewhere to my left.

“This one is still breathing, but barely.” Mina’s dad says.

“Oscar and Skylar’s rogues are still alive, take them back to the holding cells. Give them justenough treatment to keep them alive. Have Doc Sylvia force their shift then collar them.” WarriorOsiston comes up from behind us.

All the other warriors have shifted and started with their assignments, Xnader and I remain in wolfform, I refuse to shift without something to change into, I don’t know any of these guys really and Idon’t like being naked in front of Sierra on a good day.

As if he can read my mind, Warrior Osiston looks at me. “I have a shirt for you Little One, Xander isblocking you, shift so we can talk.”

I don’t hesitate, I want to tell them what happened so I can get information in return. What the helljust happened? And why are hostile rogues so far into the King’s territory? I shift and grab the shirtpulling it on quickly, then Xander shifts next to me and it’s then that I realize all of the warriors werefully clothed when they shifted back.

“How do you do that? Shift without destroying clothes? That could be useful information.” I look upat Xander then to Osiston expectantly.

“It is something we will teach you how to do in Elite training, don’t worry. Now tell us whathappened. How far out did you guys go to train? Mina and Oscar know not to leave the territory withso few people, especially this side.” Osiston looks like he’s trying to hold back anger.

“What are you talking about? We didn’t go anywhere outside the territory…Sir.” I add as anafterthought with my slight attitude. I wasn’t going to let my friends get punished for a perceived lackof following the rules. “We came right here to train and this is where they attacked us.”

Xander looked from me to Osiston and back. “That’s not possible, there’s no way they got this farundetected.”

“As you can see it’s completely possible, they did just that.” I gesture around me. “We were heretraining when three attacked us. Two were waiting over there by the tree line.” I pointed to wherethe rogue I was fighting waited until he thought I wasn’t paying attention about twenty yards awayfrom where we are standing now. “The two extra seemed to be waiting for some kind of signal tojoin in. We didn’t hear or smell them until they were attacking. What’s going on and how did they getso close to the castle? Are Mina and Oscar okay?” I can’t see them among the other warriorscleaning up, but some have set out to run quick patrols to make sure there aren't any other rogueshere.
