Carter is sitting with the principal and as they look over the last holo report both agreed. Dante is more of a beast than half the things they go after. His ruthlessness in hunting them down if anyone with him gets hurt, is enough to stop some beasts in their tracks. However what is most alarming is how at times when they face off beasts at times just leave without conflict. That oddity is the present debate amongst them. Plus three of the main families have also taken an interest in this group of students that are hunting.

"You see what I am meaning sir?" Carter sighs as he motions to the holo playing "Those two just watched each other and the tiger backed down. When I asked him about it his response was nonsense." looking over Benjamin motions as Carter sighs "The tiger wasn't hunting us but protecting a child so after we realized it both of us went our own ways."

Benjamin motions looking at the recordings from the rest of the team and another one could see the child more clearly than Dante was able to. Wothout a doubt the two left without fighting and it wasn't until five hours later it showed up again. At that time Dante fed it some of the large reptile they had killed. They spent nearly thirty minutes together and while none interacted Dante had been talking.

Carter sighs and sits back rubbing his eyes. "Dante says if he talks to them he feels safer." he looks to the principal "I think maybe it is the pitch or tone of his voice that affects them maybe the simple fact he gave it food and never made a move towards them."

Benjamin looks over and thinks before he nods. "Have the families gotten word of these strange actions?" Carter nods his head reminding him of the rules for junior hunters about having to share their records "We will wait to see what the experts have to say before trying to come up with reasons."

Dante had gathered all of his combat group as well as his art friends plus Dal today. They had been going out every day for nearly three weeks and today is the day Dante was waiting for. He smiles as he is cooking while everyone is chatting and mingling together as the sun shines above them. It is days like this when he remembers his life before everything happened. Now he can share what his mother taught him all those years ago.

Dal gasps as she takes a bite and looks over in shock to Dante before he waves to everyone in his combat group. They all smile to the shocked expression of others. "This is real meat! How did you manage to afford this all?"

Cliff laughs as he smiles and nods in response to Dante. "As we hunt we can harvest our kills. For the most part everything we get we sell, so we all could get these compartments. The last outing we tracked down a Plains Bison and kept a large share of the prime meat to ourselves."

Xin gets up and bows smiling as she looks to everyone. "I think you all for this feast and will try my best to help you as much as I can, now and into the future." as everyone is laughing and a few are commenting as everyone is in good humor as she smiles to Dante "Thank you as well for my own compartment Dante since this makes things much easier for me."

Malcolm is pacing back and forth before he nods as the suits they ordered have come in. Now their gear is better than the standard gear the school supplies. "Let us see how big they feel after seeing our higher quality gear!" his group cheers out and quickly go about syncing it up and putting them on "The last three weeks we have been stuck in lectures however starting Monday we are back into a mix of practical fighting and lectures, we will show them our power then."

Carter looks over as Johnny is posting about a project reward and after he reads it he can't help but laugh. It appears that Malcolm has put in a request for a specially designed suit but none of the art students were interested in doing it. He made a school project with some credits for the winning design. "Now how did you get the art students on your side Dante?"

Linda is walking to where she heard Dante and his group is at. Once there she can see the large gathering and clicks her tongue as she can see him by a large grill. She does wonder how good he can cook. He had offered to cook for her while they dated however she never accepted, can he cook well? Brushing those thoughts aside she walks forward and several look her way as she stops with a few friends behind her. "Hello everyone, I am looking for Dante and curious if we could join as well?"

Most of them turn and look towards Dante as the others just wait to hear what it said since they are enjoying their food more. Dante looks up and after a moment tosses a bite in his mouth before he walks away as Xin takes over watching the grill. "Sorry but this is a reward, I won't invite you. However I can chat if you want to talk a bit."

One of the girls next to Linda scoffs at him. "You should thank her for speaking to you and asking us to join you!" Dante waves a hand at her and she glares going red "How dare you!"

Linda lifts a hand as she stops and smiles to Dante. "Sorry some of my friends are protective of me as I feel some of yours are towards you as well." Dante nod as several call out saying that is right "However what is this a reward for as there have been no school events recently?"

Dante looks to her and shrugs with a smile. "This is a reward for Erica getting placed in art expo in the city for one of her sculptures. Also is reward for success at finishing a task with my combat team."

Linda nods her head and smiles. "Well I congratulate Erica on her success and your combat team as well." she tilts her head towards everyone that looks back to him "However I am curious if perhaps you could spend some of tomorrow with me? I have something to talk to you about concerning your little combat team."

Dante was feeling okay until her last three words and shakes his head. "Honestly I will be busy tomorrow, we have permission to go to the expo to see her piece and the others there." he shrugs and turns looking over his shoulder "You should try going to the combat classes, you can talk to me plenty there."

Linda grits her teeth as she is in combat classes but not the advanced one as her scores were too low. Steadily more and more of the security squads are showing up in the lower ranked one as others are moving up to replace them in the advanced class. "I will see you then and enjoy your mushrooms."

Ben looks over and as he goes to call out Dante barks once as he stops and nods with a smile. Linda looks to this confused as one of her group laugh and motions after they walked away. "They are a bunch of mangy mutts. I don't know why you keep trying Linda."

Linda looks to her and sighs shaking her head. "Dante is too big of a fish. Those in the advanced class say a professional Patroller personally vouched for Dante to hunt with a squad plus gave him a hip compartment unit."

One of the others looks over and after a few steps shakes her head. "Aren't the hip ones the cheapest units, so how good of a reward is it?"

Linda sighs and looks to her. "Back units are cheapest while hip units are in the upper end. However the fact is the hip units are the most useful units so even a cheap one is a great boon." everyone falls silent as she stomps her feet as she walks "Who the hell does he think can replace me here?!"

Onya stretches looking around as Dante is back at the grill and smiles moving up to him. "So guessing we all have the weekend off from hunting but tomorrow we go into new dangerous waters huh?"

People are laughing as he nods his head with a smile. Erica steps up and hugs him as he gives her a few pieces of freshly done kabobs. "I was so nervous at first but with all of you joining me, I feel a lot better." she smiles and moves sitting again "They say at times big companies will pressure new artists. So these are as great as dangerous but with all you all there, I'm feeling happy and safe."

Jasmine looks over and nods her head. "We are there for you plus if you think about it you have twelve bodyguards as well." everyone laughs as she flexes her guns "I will swat down anyone who bothers your smile." Erica's ears go red as she just nods quickly and takes a bite as a few other strike poses too.

Dante sits back and relaxes as he feels a pair of hands start to rub his neck and shoulders. "Honestly when I first got out and came here I only cared about two people and a question." as people look to him he closes his eyes with a smile "Now I have a group I look forward to spending my time with and that is what matters."

Dal smiles as she looks them over before sighing as her friend had to decline and doesn't know the feast she missed out on. However with his group she feels this won't be there last weekend feast. Watching Dante get a massage she nods as that looks like a good idea and with him gaining a couple from other groups, he is starting to have a large group of friends. She still can't help but laugh as he has mostly girls around him but despite that, the poor boy still is single.
