Chapter 4
Roan's point of view.
After the two old foggies walks out of the room, silence spreads among the room.
Sniff- sobs- we didnt notice that the chestnut colored hair girl started crying.
For now, lets change the atmosphere. So I stood up, took a deep breath and said. "Alright... For now, lets introduce ourselves."
But the guy with the glasses said "Lets do that later, let her cry it out"
Hrmm.. I guess the girl cant talk while crying. 'Ugh, obvious mistake.'
A few moments later. The dude with the black hair and simple shirt stood up and looked outside the windows.
Looking outside its already sunset. It was morning to me like half an hour ago.
'Am I gonna get a jet-lag?' was the first thought came to me. Truthfully, I don't feel any kind of crisis at all. Its kinda like logging in into the VR game again. That sort of feeling.
"Do you think there's magic here at all?" Ask by the glasses dude.
I took a moment to think and said "I guess so? We got summoned here so... Yeah? And the old man said we can get half the magic and spell back home or something"
"Magic exists" Black hair dude said by the window. Glasses dude made an angry glare at him until he saw him pointing outside.
"I see, I thought you were being sarcastic. They're shooting fire out of their hands." Glasses said so.
Looking outside, I saw people with robes shooting red balls of lights onto a wall. Knight-like people with shining blades hitting dummies. 'Swords and magic huh? I guess we got that setting here.'
After our short interactions, the crying girl stood up. Clearly done crying. "Thank you, miss" she thanked the other girl.

"You sure you're fine?" She asked with a worried tone.
"I'm all good. How about you? You don't seem fine to me." Cry girl replied.
"I wasn't at first, but when the old man said we can go back somehow, I felt relieved but the long wait isn't really making me happy. Now I just want to know whats going to happen next."
I was about to asked their names before.... "Before that, can we introduce ourselves first?" Said the black hair dude. 'You took my line, yo.'
"Tristan. Tristan Denver" glasses- Tristan intro'd himself while pushing his glasses. Brown colored hair. He wears a shirt with "evoke it!" print design and khaki shorts. He feel's like the class reps in class.
"Roan Hiiro. You can call me Roan." With a nice tone. I intro'd myself. Now that I noticed. I'm wearing my uniform. Well, I was about to go to school anyways.
"Fianne Cellania. Just Fia for short. Sorry for the outburst earlier." She introduced. Looking closely, she's kinda cute. She's also wearing a uniform and it looks good on her. She has a modest chest. She's cute but.... not my type.
"Amelia Strauss. Ami should be fine. Sorry for... Crying earlier. I have no idea what was going on."
She introduced while apologizing. Looking at her she has a cute face, small body with a big chest. 100% my type!!
Let's remove those thought for now. Blackie's turn.
"My name is Raze. Razelux Valence." Simple with a clear voice. Looking at what he's wearing. He looks like an NPC Villager with those clothes, except for that face. I admit he's good looking but not as handsome as me though.
With that done, everyone now knew each other's name. Now the next question is....

"What do we do now? They said they're not forcing us but I doubt that. You cant let a freeloader do nothing, right?"
"We're more likely a hostage than a freeloader. They said they will protect us but I fe-" "Hold up. Dont talk yet."Raze got interrupted by Tristan.
Tristan showed his stone to us and put it on the table. "This stone seems like they translate our words. Before you guys say something important, put it on the table. We don't know if they have ears on the walls."
Oh crap!! Is what I thought, i just had the urge to throw it. If Tristan didn't mentioned that, I might have forgotten we were still holding onto this stones. And right now we are at an unknown territory. We're still not exactly 'safe'.
After everyone placed their stones on the table, the talk continued.
"Ahem, continue" Tristan urge.
Raze nod. "I was meaning to say that we shouldn't trust them easily. We still don't know what other intentions they have. Lets just stay vigilant."
"Agreed." (Tristan)
Everyone gave a affirmative nod.
"Well... They said they summoned us to ask for help to defeat some evil. And also, they did mentioned they are not forcing us to join the war. Thats good intention, right?" I said while recalling what the old men said.
Tristan gave gave it a thought for a second, his hand on chin.
"Look at a different view, Roan. They summoned us to be weapons. If we we refuse to be weapons then..." Tristan paused for a moment and looked at everyone.
"....Then probably as a source of new knowledge?" Fia answered.
"There's a high chances, yeah." (Tristan)
"But what if they didn't ask for knowledge, or even if they did and we refuse... What will happen then?" Amelia asked a question after Fia.
When she said that, I had few bad images inside my head and but shook it away immediately.
This is actually not good huh? I thought.
Silence came for moment. Tristan had an answer for that question but didn't say it out loud. He looked at their facial expression so see if they had the same thought. uneasy silence continued within the room and each of them had an idea but no one tried to speak their minds.
The three of us guys in the group stared at each other, waiting for anyone of us to speak.
Most likely we didn't want to say any frightening words to the girls.
'Should I say it? It will leave a bad taste if I say it for sure.' While I was in the middle of making a decision, blac- Raze spoke.
"I apologize for the words l'm about to speak. Something bad might happen. Probably they might put us on slavery. Or they may even dispose of us since we aren't any use."
Slavery!! Right, since this is a different world, most likely slaveries exist here. I only thought about being caged here forever or being killed. Being slaved is far worst.
The girls had an expression of fear and despair.
"I'm sorry for my words. Please calm down" (Raze)
"Don't cry, we'll be here for you two" (Roan)
"We'll think of something, don't worry"(Tristan)
Each of us tried to make the girls calm. It took a few minutes to finally made them calm.
"We need a plan. A countermeasure for those situations."

His Innocent Fox... BoyXBoy
Little snippet of the story below... Hope you enjoy!××Willowed_Wisp××××××××××××××××××××××××××××××××××××My breath hitches in my throat, as deep crimson eyes bore into mine through the inky, yet comforting, darkness, and a hand, pale and large compared to my own tiny little paw, begins to reach out for me. A tiny chirp of fear leaves my lips, as I scoot further back until my back hits the cold wall, and flatten my ears against my head." Come on Angel... We won't hurt you." The man soothes, his already thick voice, due to his sexy British accent, sounding thicker due to his long, ivory fangs that gleam silver in the Moonlight, as he tries to coax me out from under the bed.I shake my head violently, my nose twitching wildly, as my fluffy red tail curls around my dark brown paws, and I lower my head until my chin bangs lightly against the wooden floor. I realize, with a jolt of fear, that the Vampire is gone! Leaving Robyn and myself alone. My glowing amber eyes widen, as his hand suddenly whips out from my left, and closes around the back of my neck.I look to Robyn for help, my claws scraping across the floor, creating scratches in the polished wood, only to see the spot where he once was empty. I give a series of terrified yelps, as the man gently pulls me out by the scruff of the neck, and holds me up in front of him.My tiny, dark brown paws churn wildly in the air, my ears flat, and my tail waving around wildly, as he looks me up and down, and then pulls me into his muscular chest... Wrapping a small blanket around my wriggling body to calm me down.I begin to chirp and yelp softly, calling out to Robyn, as the man throws the corner of the blanket over my face, and everything goes black. One question rings in my head as I am carried from our home...××××××××××××××××××××××××××××××××××What is going to happen to us?
