Chapter 17: The Plot or the Plan

Flashback-Jarrid's perspective...well third person but still...

Jarrid walked down the dark hallway of the facility. Ever since the disappearance of those three older boys, there had been soldiers all over the facility. They had asked Jarrid along with all of the other students about anything they knew about...Tirent? Jarrid couldn't remember his exact name. To tell the truth Jarrid didn't really care about all of that, he just wanted to be with the few friends he had, Skeecher, Boris, and Bondairia.

He walked into the cafeteria dodging around a group of soldiers clad in steel armor one of whom rested his hand on his sword like he was trying to show it off. Jarrid snickered, those soldiers were always so full of themselves. But he knew that he would one day be much stronger then them, they didn't go to this school, they were just called in from the general public by the draft officers.

When Jarrid sat down he noticed a taller soldier talking among some other men, he was nearly bald, and had shining red eyes. His armor was shinier than the others and had gold trim along the edges. His cape hung behind him, giving him an air of power and control. Jarrid shuffled down the empty tables to hear what the soldiers were talking about.

At first all Jarrid could hear were words here and there. But as he got closer he was able to hear more.
"Once I am able to meet with the shade I can turn this school into the breeding grounds for my new army." said the guy with the cape.
"These people will become the test subjects for the mixbreed of two different species. Even the dragonkin will not be able to compete. " The man continued.

The man suddenly turned, Jarrid flinched back and looked back down at his food pretending to mind his own business.
'I have to get out of here!' he thought to himself.

Tirent was pacing back and forth.
"So your saying that Morgan is gonna make all the students into some sort of half breed?" he asked.
Jarrid nodded, "Yea, I know its weird but its true. I heard him talking. It may have already begun!"
Tirent sat down. It did make sense, that would explain why the students were more like prisoners, Morgan didn't want them escaping after his 'special treatment'. With warriors that can rival the dragonkin the Empire might be able to gain a severe upper hand. Nate had better be able to get the nomads to help, without them the dragonkin might be doomed.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Nate, Spindle, Gorgo and Isabelle trekked up the icy slopes headed back to the Roomadon tribe.
Spindle Gorgo lead, Isabelle walked behind him, and Nate and Spindle walked behind her.
Nate growled, "Now how are we supposed to gain their trust, we left them with their most valued magician, and are coming back with a Nephilum Vampyre? They'll think we killed her and allied with the vampyres!"
Spindle nodded, "Yes, we need proof of Sestial's deception. All though even with evidence, it will be hard to convince them traveling with a Vampyre," he said "No offence Isabelle." he added.
"None taken, I understand the situation, you need their allegiance to fight the Empire, and I would only hinder that requirement." she answered evenly

Nate thought for a moment,
"I must talk to Arrius. He knows the tribe well. You three should wait in the woods, I will go in and bring Arrius out, he may be able to help us."

When Nate found Arrius he was outside a hut polishing his two knives.
"Hello Nate! Good to see you! How was your journey to the Nephilum? Are they all dead? I haven't seen Sestial has she gone to her hut in the woods?" he asked.
Nate narrowed his eyes at the thought of Sestial,
"I need to you to meet me outside the village, make sure no one follows you." Nate said in a low voice.
Arrius frowned, "What has happened?"
Nate shook his head, "Not here, I will tell you lat

Once Arrius had gotten out of the city, Nate grabbed him and brought him to where Isabelle, Spindle, and Gorgo were hiding. As soon as he saw Isabelle, he stopped. He turned to Nate,
"What the hell happened while you were down there?" he asked alarmed.
Nate filled him in on all of what happened, Sestial's betrayal, Isabelle saving their lives, and finally their dilemma.
Arrius paced back and forth, his dark cloak swishing to and fro. He finally stopped,
" what if you were to have Isabelle make a promise not to harm them. There is an old ritual that the Roomadon use called The Blood Telling, that even a Vampyre and go through. If the person wishes to be trusted by the Roomadon then they go through this ceremony and what they say will be accepted as truth, for it is physically impossible to lie during this ceremony. But there is a catch. The person must be tied to stake of wood and have their arms cut, so that their blood can be used for the ritual. The Roomadon believe that if one has a blood connection there is no barrier of deceit that separates them. Isabelle can tell your whole story and they will believe it and accept the truth, your alliance will be saved. "

Nate smiled, "Good job Arrius, I knew you could help us."
Then he turned to Isabelle, "Will you do it? If you do you will be accepted by the nomads and the dragonkin, you can continue travelling with us."
Isabelle thought for a moment.
"It seems I have no choice. I will do this, for you." she said.

End of Da CHAHAPATAHHHH!!!!!!!!! :O :O :O
