<div class="bbCodeBlock-content">Rose glances over towards Jayde with a small glare as she says, "Try not to be late next time." Rose then stands up and tosses both Jayde and Serina some exercise clothing and says, "Get changed into these, you'll need them for the type of test and training we will be doing." Rose had undressed herself already prepared as she says with an evil grin, "Your first test will be an endurance exercise, we'll be doing two laps around the school." Normally that would be no problem around a normal school, but their school is a little bigger than normal schools as she says, "If you can't keep up with that, then you might as well quite now... Because this is only the first test out of many others..." Once the two of them were dressed she says, "Though just because you can't do the full two laps right off the bat, doesn't mean I won't take you in... Think of this more as an evaluation for potential growth, if I feel like you will improve quickly then you're in, but if I feel like you would only slow the club down, then you're out." She then leads them out of the school and towards the entrance, once they got to the entrance she then says, "By the way, when I said the school, I meant the entire school grounds." She grins and says, "We start now." She then starts to jog her way around the school ground instead of sprinting, since this was an exercise test, not a race.</div>

<div class="bbCodeBlock-content">Firis smiles softly towards Nyria and says, "Don't worry about it, I promise I will do everything I can to protect you. While we help Wolf investigate this world, but also make our way towards the exit. Hopefully we'll be able to learn more about this world, and maybe the person I saw on the digital board will explain a few things." Firis then holds her hand out and says, "Let get going, don't want the bad wolf to wait too long and get impatient." She grins at the joke she made in an attempt to cheer Nyria up. Once Nyria took Firis's hand Firis would help her stand up and then made her way over to where Wolf was as she says, "I believe we'll be as ready as we ever will be." Wolf glances over towards the two of them as she says, "Alright, follow me and stay close, if we run into combat, I want Nyria to hide someplace close by, but close enough so that we can quickly get to her in case an enemy sneaks up on us and spots her. We'll do this until we reach the exit." Wolf then heads through the door to the school and leads them safely out of the school and towards the city.<br/>
<br/>
As they enter the city several guards similar to the ones they ran into before could be seen roaming around, along with cybernetic dog like beings as well as Wolf then says, "It's time to move, lets get going, the city is crawling with enemies, we'll have to keep an eye out for any areas that would seem to be safe zones so that we can rest from time to time." Wolf then starts to lead them through the city as they would come into contact with enemies from time to time and start fighting the enemies. As they explored the city, they came across a group of soldiers who seemed to be guarding a path that they needed to get through in order to progress as Wolf then says, "No way around it, we will have to fight these guys in order to proceed." Wolf then looks towards the two as she says, "Nyria, once we start fighting, I want you to hide nearby, do not come out until one of us says otherwise." Once Nyria hid herself away Wolf then glances over towards Firis and says, "Ready? This will be your first tough battle, as this will not be like any of the others you have went up against." Firis nods and says, "Yea, I'm ready." Wolf nods as the two of them then rush towards the enemy as they spot them and called out, "Enemies spotted!"<br/>
<br/>
Wolf rushes forwards as she draws her sword and slashes through the closest one and proceeds to move forwards as Firis follows closely behind Wolf using and remembering everything that Wolf had taught her up to this point as she jumps up, does a spin and slices through one of the guards, and continues to move not giving them a chance to counter. As they start attacking back and using magic to strike back Wolf then says, "Zorro! Use Garru!" A gust of wind rises up from underneath one of the guards knocking them down as Firis rushes in to finish the enemy off and then quickly turns around as she says, "Arsene, use Eiha!" A dark shadow slashes through one of the soldiers killing them as the soldiers dissipate into nothingness as they die. Once the battle was though to be finished Firis was about to call out for Nyria, until Wolf had stopped her and says, "There is still one more." Firis glances back and notices a large soldier that looks more like a muscular brute who used too many steroids.<br/>
<br/>
Wolf then says, "Stay on your toes, this is going to be a rough battle!" The large soldier then starts to rush towards them as the two in turn rush towards it, with their speed they quickly started to slash at the brute little by little as the brute slams the ground sending a shockwave in all directions and knocking them backwards sending both of them flying in opposite directions. Firis then stood up and says, "Eiha!" A shadow emerges from underneath the brute dealing some damage to it, while Wolf stands up and says, "Dia!" healing Firis fist since to Wolf it seemed like she took more damage than herself as she then says, "Hang in there a little longer!" As the fight continues eventually the brute starts to rampage as if it had lost enough health and started to attack wildly as she Wolf says, "careful as you attack, someone who attacks wildly like this is harder to predict, close combat is not the best choice when dealing with someone who is attacking wildly... Garu!" A burst of wind hits the wild brute and in turn Firis calls forth darkness as the chip away at the brute until it finally collapses and disappears as the two of them breath heavily and sit down to rest as Wolf says, "This looks like a good place to rest for now, go ahead and call Nyria over."<br/>
<br/>
Firis nods as she turns towards the direction Nyria would have hid at as she says, "Nyria! It's safe to come on out!" As she rests she sits there catching her breath as she glances over towards a sign that seemed to be what the guards were protecting and guarding and then notices what was on the sign. Firis face suddenly went pale and she seemed to be shocked by what she was seeing on the sign as she says, "Why is his face on the sign?" The sign held the picture of a man who was the owner of the Legal Slave Trade system, an organization that was meant for those who wish to be slaves to sell themselves to people, but also still have their freedom. Such as if they didn't like the people who owned them, then they could reject them and choose to return to the slave trade to be bought by a new owner, or if the owner was reported to be abusive or forced the slave to do something they didn't want, then they would arrested for illegal slavery. The organization had to go through all kind of methods to make sure their slave system for those who wanted to be slaves to actually be legal in the terms of them still being free and civilians. However, for some reason it seems like the owner of that very company was on the sign and was being flagged as the Ruler of the city, the words surrounding him read, 'All Hail the Ruler of Slave City.' Wolf glances over towards the sign and notices Firis's reaction as she asks, "Do you know him?" Firis nods and says, "I do... But it makes no sense, why is he on the sign?" Wolf stands up and says, "Well, it looks like he is the ruler of this world... It also seems like everything you see around us, and how the world works is how he sees reality... By what the sign says, it seems like he sees the city as a city of slaves."<br/>
<br/>
Firis shakes her head and says, "That doesn't sound right, why would he see such a thing, he created the Legal Slave system for those who wish to be slaves legal with their own freedom, why would he see the city as a city of slaves? It makes no sense!" Wolf then shrugs as she says, "I don't know, perhaps if we ever come across his shadow, you can ask him yourself..." Firis was then confused as she says, "His Shadow?" Wolf nods as she says, "Yes, his Shadow, unlike most shadows around her a certain persons shadow is considered to be their "Alter ego", if you will. It's their true self and how they see themselves in their own world, think of the version you know of as a mask, and the shadow in this world is their true self." Wolf then stretches as she says, "Either way, we are able to proceed and because of your help we were able to determine who the ruler of this place is... The exist is close by." She then leads them a bit farther into the city as Firis was thinking about the man in the photo as they arrive at a building that would be very familiar to Nyria as it was the Maid Cafe that she works at and the moment they walked through the door a scene, skit, or play of sorts appeared before them showing Nyria's true desires.</div>
