[quote=KatherinWinter] "That is true." Vlad acknowledged. They would need a leader once they left the labs. Still he wasn't convinced that Alastair was telling him the truth. The boy wasn't the sort to resort to physical punishments. He held the whip out to his 'son'. "Prove it. Finish giving Lucy the 15 lashes she has left. Show me that your not just trying to save her from the pain of her punishment." [/quote] Alastair took the whip, I have to learn to take responsibility for my squad if not then I could become a tyrant and only punish my squad having them revolt against me, he took off his own shirt still half covered in cuts. If she or another one of them gets out of place I'll punish them but like I said I would receive this punishment If not I would be forsaking my word and then they wouldn't see me as a leader more of a dictator." Alastair said truth fully handing the whip back to him turning his back to Vlad keeping the solider stance he previously had, it was logical that the leader take the beating but he was very serious about them getting punishments from him if they were getting crazy he thought back to what he said to the other kid about breaking his arms if he ever makes a attempt to kill a teacher agin Alastair knew now that he had to keep his word on that none of them could get out of line without punishments from him anymore.
