Effects of the attack

The news of the attack on them is public knowledge and everyone is talking about how nine of the beasts were taken out and one being Dante himself. Many are running with the stories of a various reasons, causes, and attackers. The one common theme is none are mentioning the others that were attacked and hospitalized.

Carter is sitting there now getting pissed it has been days since he last heard from the damned principal. He had left to visit his family but stopped responding and many are starting to feel they know who leaked Dante's information. Looking over he gets a message and shouts shocked seeing the sender. "Make sure we are still participating."

He looks around as the area is silent after his outburst and he smiles some. "Sorry, just the captain of our team called me while I was lost in thought." a few mutter and some give condolences for the loss of his ace "I am here to confirm the participation of Supplementary Academy 92."

They look up and he can see their face is full of pity. "How many and team captain?"

The area has fallen silent and he turns and his eyes widen as Dante is walking forward with the Beasts flanked out following him as all of their eyes are focused. He walks straight up and looks to the person who is staring like they see a corpse. "I am Team Captain Dante Cross reporting with thirty-one members for the contest."

Carter looks to him and the others as he can't understand after how they looked just a few days ago. "What happened, you all were nearly dead?"

Dante looks over and smiles some patting his shoulder. "We animals know more about the world than humans." he waves as everyone moves and he starts off "Humans should worry about attacking us."

Everyone in the area is shocked and silent as Carter stares after them. "What have they awoken?" he looks over to others as they look to him thinking the same "I feel sorry for who they will face."

Dante is looking to everyone and sighs as he nods his head. "I will understand after Friday if some wish to leave the team. Honestly it is the logical path to avoid dangers as our jobs alone risk our lives but for some" he growls "people to also attack us like that is beyond even standard risks."

Several look between each other and him as one raises their hand. "I have been having fun hunting and hanging out with everyone but the hunting is already frightening." he looks around and sighs "I am sorry Dante but with people attacking us too I don't think I can do it."

Dante gets a soft smile and nods. "I am not upset or will shout at anyone. To be honest I am shocked so many showed up with me today." he looks to his hands and closes them slowly "I will do what I can to help those that wish to stop hunting and will be your friend no matter what. This was always by choice and I won't make anyone do it."

After twenty minutes pass people have accepted and come to terms with things as he is now leading eighteen members. Most had been having fun and trusted each other plus their gear but after the robot. The damage was done and the risks are too great in their minds. When Carter shows up they talk and Dante chuckles as they were requested to reduce how many participants they had. He says it will be eighteen plus him as Carter looks and nods.

Ben walks up and puts a hand on Dante's shoulder as he sighs. "I am sorry man I wanted to but if I hadn't been tied up with class, that robot would have destroyed me." Dante swats his shoulder with a smile "Least you are still you. I will be moving back to the dorms. I will feel awkward seeing you all hunting as I can't do it anymore."

Dante nods as he opens his hand and tosses a bite of meat in his mouth. "As I told everyone, once you are ready we will welcome you back." Ben nods and shakes his head with a smile "I likely will join up but I just need time to come to terms." Dante holds out his arm as Ben grabs it "Make them pay double for what they did man." Dante nods as they shake.

Tabitha walks up hugging Ben as he smiles to her and nods his head as she moves standing next to Dante. Those going over their gear plus items still in the contest are his remaining Beasts and are focused. "Dante, we will make this human world run in blood for the pains we suffered." he nods to Tabitha as she has tears in her eyes "They deserve no forgiveness."

He looks over as Janet smiles waving and he nods while she double checks her gear. He actually figured she would step out but after what happened, she seems to have had a change of heart. Maybe more precisely she has gotten a new goal and rage to match her leader. "Okay everyone we have just two goals being here." as they all look to him he nods "If able, find out who hit us." as they all nod "To show this world just what we are."

Ally is looking around as Edna asked her to find Dante. She finally finds the right staging area and comes in as she is one with access which she smiles from as she comes over then holds a folded unit out to him. "Dante inside of this is a gift from the head of R and D." he lifts an eyebrow as she shrugs "She literally just gave it to us before we left and said you have a head, shouldn't be too hard to solve."

Dante blinks a few times as he and those near him laugh as she joins in. "I swear that person is about as good at reports as I am at flying." Ally laughs at him and nods her head "However I will figure it out and thank you Ally." she smiles as he hugs her "Please, be safe I cherish you too much to lose you."

She nods and smiles whispering in his ear. "Both Edna and I have our suits so you should test me out sometime." he blinks and she smiles as she turns fleeing before he can respond "Best of luck!" Dante looks to the item and shrugs as he stores it for now. Something a crazy person made, he just hopes it isn't a bomb that kills him if he opens it.

Onya comes up and puts a hand on his side as he looks to her. "Dante, thank you for healing my body." he nods as he takes her in his arms "I don't know what you did, but I shouldn't be able to ever walk again. I felt it break me in several places."

Dante looks to her and leans by her ear and whispers. "I asked my mother to heal you like she had healed me many times. I am sorry for the pain you suffered and I had to cause but I couldn't let you be wounded Onya." she looks up to him as he nods "We will find out who hurt us and we will show them our mercy."

She holds onto him and after a few moments several others are holding him. He relaxes as his body shakes a few times but the rage calms down and he smiles softly. "Thank you everyone and once we are done with this contest. I will do what I can to make what you want come true."

Onya looks up and laughs saying she can't have hers. Several others laugh to this and he smiles nodding his head as she leans in and smiles. Janet laughs and says she can get her request as others look to her laughing. "Yes you would enjoy a nice candle light dinner and company." she blinks and others laugh "Miss Vanilla of our group." Several are now laughing as Dante is thinking how the hell does none of them realize before he smiles as he hadn't until she told him either.

He taps the holo then smiles seeing the Widows on the screen and shakes his head as it seems they all tried to be in the shot at once. Jenny speaks up as people start to move back seeing he and the others are okay. "I looked at the holo of the attack and I am at a loss how you are all standing. Especially you Dante, what the hell was that love tapping crap? You pull that again and I swear to everything I will personally beat you to death and back!"

Dante nods as he sighs. "I overthought the situation and went the worst path. However I am done worrying about some things so that will never happen again." as they all nod their heads he smiles "Also I feel this contest will be one to remember." he laughs as they do "But honestly are you guys going to be able to be here for part or just holoing it?"

Lisa smiles as she leans over. "We intend to be there for part of it Dante. We won't be there the entire time mainly because you now these last a full week?" Dante thinks and they laugh "You are the captain Dante so you should know at least this much."

Dante smiles and shrugs as he laughs and they all laugh and smile. "Well man, I know you will knock em out but try to not kill the good ones." he laughs to Dustin as the man gives a wave "I will be there in a bit as I have free time already."

Emily motions as he looks to her and she smiles. "Do a good job and we girls have already thought up rewards for you." with her wink and posture Dante's ears go red as she laughs "Bad boy having such thoughts!"

He closes it looking around and nods as he walks over to Onya. "Onya, I am going to do something with you." she looks up to him "Do you trust me?"

Onya looks up and nods as she has a serious look in her eyes. "I trust you without hesitation."

Dante nods as he smiles softly and puts a hand on her shoulder. "I haven't really done this before but I feel it will work." she looks to him "I will be lending Ta to you to fight with if you want."
