Lachlan unsummoned the dragons to make his way through the portal, their large sizes wouldn't allow them to walk through the cave, let alone the portal. However, he was shocked to discover that the clouds were coloured by ants. Sure, they weren't able to make it through their defences, but it was still quite a surprise to come back to.
'This is Simon's fault isn't it?' Lachlan asked himself as he shook his head. There was no one else that came to mind which wouldn't have escaped, only Simon was seeking a challenge. That is unless others just kept their desire under control and didn't allow it to take control of their emotions until now.
Looking up one more time Lachlan saw Anne fly past and trailing right behind her was a cannon looking weapon. Lachlan had an expression of genuine surprise plastered across his face. 'Well, that was certainly unexpected, did think she was the type that's bloodthirsty for battles. But anyway, suppose I should help clean this mess up.'
Lachlan swiftly summoned all of his tames, their appearance surprised those in the orphanage. Everyone was currently hiding inside, staring at the window at the large ant horde above them. But when Lachlan made his way outside of the cave, they all turned their attention to him instead.
Their mouths were agape when Lachlan summoned all of his tames, especially the three new tames, three large and mighty dragons. Their appearances rocked their world and their steps literally rocked the ground, causing the building to shake slightly.
'Alright, we're going to make our way over to the main battlefield' Lachlan explained as he hopped on Aaron.
The dragons looked at each other before nodding, Orpheus spread his wings wide, casting a shadow upon the mountain as they thrashed downwards. A gust of wind blew from them, shaking tree leaves as he took to the skies. Luna followed right behind, her silky body slid across the ground before taking it into the skies using the slightest bit of water control to help her stay in flight.
Beaumont grumbled in annoyance before starting to run, its large body caused the ground to shake at every step. It charged through the trees like they were nothing, its defence allowed it to do so without any backlash.

The Rocs flew all around them, each of them keeping an eye on one dragon. They were analysing their new comrades, they needed to know how they do things so they can cooperate properly once they're on the field. Also, to get the advantage when they challenge them.
The group swiftly made it to the edge of the island before halting, Beaumont was still on the island. Looking looked at it as though it was slightly idiotic. 'Beaumont, what are you doing? I know you have wings, if that wasn't the case, I wouldn't have been able to tame you.'
Lachlan wasn't an idiot, he knew that he wouldn't have been able to tame Beaumont unless he had wings. If he didn't, then taming him would have been impossible no matter what he did. That's just the way human taming works, you can only take what you're compatible with.
'Oh, I didn't know that, also, I'd rather keep my wings as a trump card to our enemies' Beaumont explained in a deep and masculine voice, it almost sounded as though it echoed through Lachlan and the other tames' minds. It was unique, almost like an ancient sage despite being adolescence.
Lachlan nodded. 'Alright, since you want to keep it a secret, I won't have you show it. But; if you're not going to fly, I suppose the only other viable method of getting to the main battlefield will be by just jumping off the island.' Lachlan didn't want to force his tames to do anything they didn't want to do, especially since it had a rather decent reason.
'Okay,' Beaumont replied before leaping off the island's edge without hesitation. Its body pierced through the air like an asteroid, the wind created a loud ripping sound as Beaumont headed towards the group at a fast pace due to its body weight.
Finally, once he reached the ground, Beaumont landed and caused it to shatter. Cracks spread across the ground as entire chunks of land were ripped out of their normal position. Any buildings that were still standing near their island completely crumbled away.
Lachlan facepalmed as he didn't think Beaumont would do it. With Beaumont's control over elements, it should have been able to easily soften its land, maybe even take a chunk of land out of the island and use it to levitate downwards. But Lachlan didn't bother to question him about it.
Once Beaumont reached the ground he charged forward rapidly, his steps caused the ground to crumble but flourish at the same time. Where there was dirt, once Beaumont passed nearby it began to sprout grass and sometimes flowers.
Luna and Orpheus tore through the skies; Luna's slick body skimmed past the ants, but the roughness of her scales tore through their bodies like a hot butter knife through butter. Orpheus, on the other hand, just tore through them by using his mouth and claws, tearing them apart of biting them in half.
In the distance, the group was watching everything happened and were thoroughly surprised by how large the dragons were. Not only that, they could feel for themselves that the power the dragons wield was enormous and was comparable to their own strength.
Due to it travelling across the ground, Beaumont's charged was unchallenged; that was until he finally reached the main battlefield and charged at the already injured ant queen. Its body tore through the air as it leapt off the ground, its mouth encased the ant queen's head before chomping down firmly and swiftly.
The group watched it happened with their mouth agape, shock plastered across their face as they saw how swiftly Beaumont killed the ant queen. An opponent which even they had slight difficulties with; it was so easily beaten, and Beaumont didn't even have a scratch on him.
In the skies, Luna and Orpheus were tearing up the now clueless ants. Once the ant queen was killed, they were unsure of who to proceed with anything. They were left defenceless without the orders of their ant queen; slowly but surely the ant horde dispersed with a majority of it being killed by Luna and Orpheus who used their elemental control to slaughter them all.
"Hey, as you can see, I've tamed a few dragons." Lachlan reached the ground in the sky, still standing on Aaron with his arms crossed. "That big behemoth of a dragon on the ground is Beaumont, the one which looks like a Chinese dragon is Luna, and the big one which looks like a demon is Orpheus."
Orpheus looked towards the group in the skies and snorted, smoke burst out of its nose when it did it. Luna made her way over, she floated in front of the group and stared at the people her master called friends. She swiftly noticed who the stronger ones were before turning her attention to Phoebe and Joe who were making their way over.
Phoebe charged into Lachlan's embrace with a bright and warm smile, she wrapped her arms around Lachlan's masculine body and hugged tightly. "I'm glad you're back, seems you journey on the other side wasn't so bad either."
Phoebe let go and floated over to Luna, her hand glided across Luna's scales before brushing through Luna's silky and thick blue hair. "She's a beautiful dragon, I like her the most."
'Master, I like this one the most, she's friendly and certainly knows how to use her words. Also, she's rather cute' Luna responded in a calm and composed feminine voice. It was a gentle tone, akin to professional singers.
'Ha, I like the one with that battle-axe the most; a weapon only a true warrior would choose to showcase their power without even attack' Orpheus intervened with his rough but medium pitched voice. He sounded like a soldier while Beaumont sounded like the general.
'I like the girl the most as well, her tames all possess great defensive power, they're true warriors that use their bodies as shields' Beaumont responded with pride as he looked towards the two turtles floating around the sky. They all had a similarly shaped body to him, which is the only reason as to why he liked them so much.
'Alright, all of you can come back now. Aaron, Catastrophe, Calamity, and Disaster that includes you four as well' Lachlan commanded as they turned into a shadow and merged with Lachlan's. The dragon's shadows were all rather large in comparison to all the other shadows they've seen so far.
"So, how has everyone been so far? How's business been running?" Lachlan asked in a friendly manner as he floated in the air with his arms crossed. "Oh yeah, I also have something to show you all later, it'll be a great surprise. As for now though, let's go back to the island."
They all nodded before going back, Lachlan along with Phoebe made their way to the orphanage. Once they landed, Sarah burst through the doors and sprinted to Lachlan, charging right into Lachlan's guts with all her momentum. "Welcome back!"
Lachlan chuckled as he lifted Sarah up and held her in one arm. "That's right, I'm back see there wasn't anything to worry about now was there?"
Sarah shook her head vigorously. "Nope, because big brother is strong."
"Haha, that's right," Lachlan brought Sarah closer and gave her a quick kiss on the forehead. "Alright, prepare yourself because later we'll be going to the other world and taking a look at the thing I brought back."
"Okay," Sarah nodded before jumping out of Lachlan's arms and running back into the orphanage. She was currently hanging out with Sophie and a few other children, Maddy and a few other parents were there overseeing the whole thing so it was entirely safe.
Looking towards the usual tree Lachlan noticed Dylan was relaxing on the same branch as always. Lachlan turned to Phoebe, "I'll be right back, just going to check up on a friend." He disappeared from his spot after saying that before reappearing right next to Dylan.
"Well, how have you been so far?" Lachlan asked as he squatted down. Dylan was one of the first people he became friends with after the world evolved, not to mention he was a close family friend as well. Lachlan saw Dylan as another family member.
"Things have been going great: The parents are now inviting me to any barbeques and parties, I'm having a blast just relaxing up here with that wind stone you gave me a while back, and yeah, things are just going good," Dylan responded with a bright smile.
Lachlan was glad to hear that Dylan has finally managed to merge himself with the parents. He was also happy to see Dylan smile like he is right now, he hasn't seen such a smile in a long time, it brought some joy to his heart seeing him doing so well.
"That's great, just keep doing what you're doing; soon we'll probably start bringing in more people as we start up the school program, who knows, maybe you'll find yourself a partner. Also, just a suggestion before they do arrive, you should start training intensely, that way no students should pass you immediately, you don't want to be powerless if they decide to initiate a prank attack now do you?" Lachlan asked as he explained his plans. They were going to start up the school sooner or later, so he saw no setback in starting it now.
"Ha, I'll get on that then, who knows, maybe I'll be passing you in terms of strength," Dylan said jokingly as he lightly punched Lachlan's arm. "Once the school stuff starts, I wouldn't mind being in charge of discipline, after all, someone has to keep the students in line."
"Alright, I'll leave that to you then," Lachlan said as his voice faded away with his disappearance. Lachlan returned to Phoebe and Sarah, along with Maddy and Sophie burst through the doors. "Alright, seems everyone is ready then. Let's go."
The rest of the group was with them as well, they were currently doing small talk with each to waste the time before they go have a look at what Lachlan brought back. They had their expectations raised fairly high seeing how proud Lachlan was of it.
