Tanji leaps up into the stands and says "I'm sorry! I have to do this!!" He stands and slowly cultivates his Overcharge Art.

The vampire says "You heard him. He's charging his ultimate attack. We have to hold on!" Two people, a ghoul and a hellhound then combine their fireballs. A stronger hellhound catches it then spin throws it at a Level 5 Blue-bot. It greatly injures it then the ogre blitzes towards the bot and destroys it with a powerful punch.

The vampire says "Carry on! There are 10 more coming. We have to finish them off!" The ogre roars and the group fire themselves up for the wave of robots. The vampire zooms across the battlefield with crazy high speed and punches a Level 4 robot in its head. He swivels around and kicks it in its knee. He steps back then grabs the remains of a robot arm. He ducks under a punch and swings it at the robot. The arm merely breaks but he does cause some low-level damage. He leaps up then uses the robot arm to choke it out.

He thinks "This is a realistic display of what would happen . This means I should be able to choke this robot out!" The robot slowly loses power and he smiles in happiness. He drops the robot to the ground then stomps on its head as hard as he can.

He jumps over another robot then punches a Level 4 bot. He grabs a lose hand off of the ground and makes the robot trip up on it. He then kicks it in it's chest area and grabs into its metal head. He places one leg on the brawny blue-bot's shoulder. He pulls as hard as he can and rips the head of the robot right off. A Level 5 robot approaches him and he throws the head at it. He then punches it in its stomach area.

The Level 5 robot seems minimally damaged then just swings its metal claws at him. He dodges but gets a small cut across his cheek from the wind. The ogre then slams into it and says "Go!!" He runs back and the ogre faces the massive robot.

The vampire meets another Level 5 robot that has been minimally damaged. Behind him, he sees 5 people, all heavily injured. He thinks "Oh no.." He rushes in to attack the robot but is grabbed off of the floor and slammed into the wall behind him. He coughs blood then is slashed across the torso. He is punched across the face powerfully and he drops to the floor below.

Blood splats onto the hay floor below from his mouth and he fearfully looks up to the massive bot. A punch dives down on him but he catches it. He pushes against the fist as hard as he can and screams in rage. The robot merely pulls back and stomps on his chest. His breastbone cracks on impact and he passes out.

Tanji sees and thinks "Oh no!" The blue ball starts making much more noise and he mutters "It's done.." He says "Everyone!! Move!!" The ogre dodges a punch from the robot then kicks in its knee. He leaps out of the ring and so do the 6 remaining students. He leaps into the open and overhead throws the ball into the ring. It explodes and heavily injures some robots but only moderately damages others.

He lands in the ring, exhausted and hopeless. He looks around and sees nothing but approaching robots. He is punched by a robot in the back then kneed in the chin. He passes out and the robots turn to the crowd. The ogre snarls and the hellhounds prepare their devilish flames. The two remaining werewolves snarl at the bots and the werewolf bots snarl back.

Several fireballs rain down onto the ring but pretty much nothing happens. The robots gain some moderate damage but still all stand firm against the students.

The werewolves leap in but one gets grabbed by the neck. He resists violently but is slammed into the ground and passes out. That same Level 5 bot gets punched in the face by the final werewolf. The werewolf sees the futile punch causes nothing and cowers away in fear. He is punched in the jaw and he spits blood across the ring. He is then slashed across his torso and kneed in the breastbone. He falls and passes out but the hellhounds have been preparing something. A massive ball of fire is cultivating and growing in the stands.

Mrs. Klawfield says "Such power.."

The fireball then turns into a powerful fire vortex that beams into the Level 5 bot and shreds it to pieces. They all then leap down and use their fire to their advantage. One hellhound waves a mass of fire at a Level 5 bot but pretty much nothing happens. The hellhound dodges a swing then heats up his hands. His palms are orange with condensed fire and heat. He grabs onto its arm and starts to melt the components. He rips it off then cocks back his hand, accumulating fire for a hellfire fireball. His hair and clothes flow from the fire absorption and he says "Explosive.. FIREBALL!!" He slams it into the Level 5 bot's chest, already causing some minor damages.

The fireball then releases all of its hidden power to cause a loud and strong explosion of fire. The Level 5 bot receives significant injury and is charred on the surface.

He takes the rare chance he has granted himself and tries to finish off the raging werewolf bot. However, it is of no use. He rushes in and collects fire around his foot. He goes in for a swinging kick but it is to no avail. The Level 5 bot merely catches his fiery leg in mid-air and slams him into the floor below.

He looks up in fear and thinks "How?!"

END OF CHAPTER

Chapter 50 - The True Shift

The Level 5 bot's metal body starts to restructure itself. It then starts to gain somewhat new components out of no where and gain even more size. It's strength increases further and further as well. The werewolf bot concludes it's slow and frightening shifting to reveal it's true form. The ogre behind and some other hellhounds all managed to take down the remaining bots. The last one stands tall and firm. It's head shape resembles a wolf with it's wolf snout and glowing golden eyes.

It's height reaches a new 8'4, way higher than even the ogre. The hellhound stands and thinks "This can't be possible!"

Mrs. Klawfield then gives her own input from the teacher's spectating room. "The True Shift of the werewolf bot. New technology from blue 20 years ago now almost perfectly duplicates the average Beta Werewolf and Raging Werewolf. They won't stand a chance."

The Level 5 bot roars as loud as it possibly can and literally shakes the ring. The vibrations tremble the supernaturals' bodies from their feet to their heads. Everyone has no possible clue on how to win this. The ogre takes the initiative and runs in at the werewolf. He leaps and cocks back his fist for a punch but the werewolf stabs it's hand through his stomach through the use of its long and sharp claws. The ogre coughs blood and grasps onto the robot's arm. He is slammed into the floor then knocked out with a head stomp. The hellhounds shoot many fireballs but they just hit the robot and steam off of its metal surface.

The werewolf bot grabs a hellhound's neck and holds them high. It kicks another hellhound in the head and kills it. To follow, it grips the hellhound's neck tighter then slams them into the ground. The hellhound coughs blood from the slam and passes out almost instantly after.

The three remaining hellhounds all look at the werewolf in uttermost fear. The hellhound that was fighting solo stands up and runs towards the werewolf bot on all fours. He flips forward then leaps up sky high. His claws cloak in raging fire and he dives down to deliver a deadly slash. His most powerful attack. He causes some light cuts on the robot but nothing more.

He is then kicked in the gut and knocked out with a simple hook. The werewolf bot turns then runs towards the remaining opponents. It grabs the remaining two with its two open hands and dashes across the ring. To finish off the battle, it slams both hellhounds into the ring wall and knocks them out.

Once the match is done, the werewolf bot steams off and slowly shifts back into its resting form.

Mrs Klawfield says "Much better performance than last year. We might be seeing our new stash of future City Troopers." The male teacher says "That kid. The lightning one. He did so well! He contributed greatly to the squad. Such amazing talent." Mrs. Klawfield says "Yep. The elixirs should have all the students up by now." The male teacher says "Yes. Let's head down now."

The two head down the pearly white steps into the arena's infirmary. The students are all fine and well. Many are confused and furious at the event. One werewolf speaks out and says "Hey! Why'd you do that! People could've died out there." Another werewolf says "Yeah. What if someone bled to death of what if a robot hit too hard." The group then start shouting at the two teachers and making them seem like villains. Mrs. Klawfield says "Quiet.."

The group continue shouting. Their own fear for their lives transitions to a harsh and violent anger. Mrs. Klawfield's eyes then glow golden as she shouts "Enough!!" The group quiet down then a werewolf gets mad. He says "I'm tired of this! I'm gonna kill you both!!" He rushes in and throws a punch to the woman's face. Nothing happens. He is grabbed then thrown up to the high ceiling above. He hits the roof then soars from the heights of the room. He lands and hurts his arm mildly but his lycanthropy heals the injury in seconds.

She says "This academy is not for the weak. The strong prevail and the weak get washed away. This is how it is in the academy and life in general. You can get washed away by being expelled, or by maybe even killed.." The group all make gasps of shock as Tanji thinks "This is really how they train City Troopers?! This can't be possible!"

She also says "You all also signed a bank of information, clearly stating that there is risk of death, that will not hold the institution accountable. You will be held accountable." Tanji goes back to the letter he signed and the bells ring in his head. "Oh yeah! I skimmed over the words too much! So the robots could kill people." She says "This is not an academy for weaklings! This is a place where we train the best of the best! The strongest of the strong to protect the whole of the Bludby State. We don't have nations like once before but small, dense states to protect. This requires strong people to protect it from interior and exterior threats. You think that's easy?!"

No one dares to disagree with her and go against her. She says "If any of you choose not to join us, You can leave!" About 8 of the group storm out of the medical centre, because they do not want to stay in the fear-striking academy. Tanji contemplates the choice but knows how much he's worked to get to this position.

He can't stop now. The teacher says "Now.. I congratulate the rest of you. You were not actually supposed to complete that test. The last time someone passed that test, they became a Town Lord. It was merely to gauge your strengths. A file will be delivered to your device, after this period ends and will give you detailed information on your strengths and weaknesses."

Tanji, reacts to the statement in surprise of their strategy. "Wow! They used fear and chaos to really bring out the most in people. A great way to gauge strength. I didn't go out last so I'll likely not do the best. Oh well.."

Some time passes and the group of students make their way out of the medical room and to their lockers. The golden light of the sun slowly starts to dim as evening is on its way. The warm atmosphere gives a calming sensation towards the new and improving students. Tanji opens his locker and gets his phone. He goes onto his forcefully downloaded Grimcrest Academy app to find the detailed log of info. It is in a brand new notification, displayed with his face profile.

"Tanji Bjornulfsson. Starter Fighting Grade: A+." The A+ is displayed with a lime green colour over a grey-blue background.

"A formidable fighter. Possesses some lycan abilities but also a versatile lightning-powered arsenal. Not only has Tanji been lucky with a mutation but used it to its full potential with several different lethal techniques. Not only has he got a significant range of techniques but also considerable raw power and speed. This together brews for an amazing fighter. To add, he managed to lead the group by advising them on what to do with the werewolf blue-bots. This also showcases leadership skills, required to be a successful City Trooper.

Strengths:

Raw Strength, Raw Speed, Techniques, Intelligence, Leadership Skills.

Weaknesses:

Stamina. Tanji was visibly exhausted after a few minutes at full power. Overexertion. The techniques Tanji uses are so strong that it's almost too far ahead of his physical strength. I advice that he strengthens and toughens his body up to match the high-level techniques he can perform."

Tanji thinks to himself. "Some good advice. Just because of Overcharge, I got bad rep for stamina. Whatever.." He closes his locker and loosens up his clothes to walk down the hall.
