Chapter 81: Help the Werewolf



Chapter 81: Help the Werewolf

The two werewolves were staring at each other, before they both slowly started to move up and down, seemingly waiting for the other to make the first move. As the group of teenagers looked at the two mythological creatures, they started to notice some small differences between the two.

The most obvious one was their difference in stature. The one that had just arrived was about one head shorter than the first werewolf and while it was also muscular, it seemed to be more lean compared to the other being more buff. The colour of their fur was also different, the bigger one clearly more black while the newer one was more brownish.

“Oh God, it’s another one of those monsters!” Innu shouted as he looked around at what had saved him from certain death. He was grabbing his chest as his already fast heartbeat became even faster, making him start to worry about suffering a heart attack.

The larger of the two creatures turned to look at Innu, yet the smaller one used that opportunity to leap in, almost tackling the larger one by the waist. It pushed it a small distance away, until the larger werewolf dug its claws into the side of the other’s ribs.

The small werewolf screamed out in pain and let go, though the wounds on its side started healing at a visible speed. Alas, before the smaller one could fully recover, the larger dug its claws into the smaller one’s chest and slightly lifted him up, before he began running until it had banged the other’s body into a tree.

The brown werewolf screamed out once more in pain, and snarled at the larger one, clearly struggling. Desperate, it used the tree to kick off with its powerful back legs, kicking the larger one’s chest, making him let go.

“These two really don’t seem like normal Altered.” Kai spoke his mind. “They seem more like two wild beasts who have met each other and are fighting over their territory.”

“Who the f*ck cares what they are?! This is our chance to get out of here! If we stay here, we’ll just end up as the winner’s meal, so let’s go!” Marie stated, before she turned around and started to head away from the fight. Innu followed right behind her, the high schooler had come too close to death already and he didn’t feel lucky enough to survive a third near-death experience this evening.

Xin hesitated, but just when she was about to run off, she noticed that the one person who had been dragging them behind a lot lately was still staring at the fight.

“Tom, come on we gotta get out of here! What are you waiting for?” Xin called out, grabbing his hand.

Meanwhile, Kai had continued paying attention to the fight between the two, making up his mind whether the better choice was to run for it or help the smaller one. Unfortunately, the werewolf whose identity he presumed to know, was not only larger, but had also proven to be faster and stronger.

The smaller werewolf was getting hurt far more often than his opponent. Although all their wounds were healing, with each hit one of the two parties was proving their dominance in this fight.

Just then, the larger werewolf had picked up the other by its legs and swung it into a tree, destroying it and greatly hurting the smaller werewolf.

Hearing the cries of the werewolf was hurting Tom internally.

‘I’m sure of it, that smaller werewolf…the reason why it didn’t attack us and went straight for the others…it’s you, right Gary?’ Tom thought. ‘You heard my cry, and came to save us… and now…you’re losing out to the other Omega. This must be the one who you were talking about. I’m sorry, I’m so sorry for thinking that that was you, that you might have attacked us before.’

At that moment, Tom felt Xin grab him.

“Look, we might not be friends, but there’s no way I’m leaving my classmate here to die!” Xin insisted, starting to drag Tom behind, yet she felt him resist as he pulled back.

“We can’t go now! That smaller werewolf saved us! We have to help him! Please, if we don’t do anything he might kill him!” Tom begged.

Seeing the look on the other teenagers’ faces, he could tell that all of them thought he was mad, for planning to help a monster. Even Innu, who had been saved by the smaller one’s action, only thought that it had been a coincidence.

Still, though, Kai had noticed Tom’s strange actions.

‘He keeps calling them ‘Werewolves’ instead of ‘Altered’ as if he’s certain that that’s what they are.

He also thought the big werewolf to be Gary before… However, If my guess is right, that larger one should be…and now he wants us to save him…could it be that he mistook their identities?’

Of course there was no way for Kai to confirm his thoughts, and as much as this situation fascinated him, he treasured his life far more than to satisfy his curiosity. Marie stopped waiting around and broke out into actual running, Kai soon following, along with Innu, and that’s when Xin started to drag Tom along with them, who couldn’t help but continue to look back.

“I’m sorry!” Tom shouted.

The group had run forward for a little while further into the trees, yet they could still hear the sounds of fighting going on behind them. It was then though, that they could hear panting, and the sound of growling getting louder.

“Don’t turn back, don’t turn back!’ Innu conditioned himself.

“It’s chasing after us!” Xin shouted, forced to look back because she kept dragging Tom along, and she could see that the larger werewolf was the one behind them.

‘No….it’s the other werewolf… does that mean Gary lost?’ Tom worried about his best friend.

When the werewolf was close enough, it leapt towards the group and its claws were reaching out towards Tom. It looked like it was about to reach him, but a few inches away from the high schooler’s face, he came to an abrupt stop.

Opening one eye as he noticed that the pain he had expected never came, Tom saw that Gary had returned, just in time to save him from the other werewolf. His best friend was covered in wounds which did not seem to be healing, yet he was still putting up a fight.

Seeing that the larger werewolf was about to attack, Tom decided to pick up a rock, and went ahead to throw it at the werewolf. However, before he could throw it, someone held him by the wrist.

“Don’t stop me, Xin! If you don’t want to help him that’s fine, but I have to help him get rid of that other werewolf!” Tom shouted.

“Don’t worry, you can leave that to us.” An unrecognizable voice said.

Surprised, Tom looked around to see that instead of the new girl it was actually a large man holding his wrist. He was covered in a trench coat, and not too far away from him was another person in similar getup. The pair of them wore black masks covering their faces, hiding their identity.

Pulling off the trench coat, the man revealed a strange jagged black armour. It looked like the type one would find in a museum, showing off how their ancestors had once fought, yet this one, despite the medieval look, had several weapons strapped on.

The most noteworthy one, was a strange sword that appeared to have been elaborately crafted.

As such, the next action confused Tom, as the man took out what looked to be a baton. He pushed a button, and the weapon began to emit electricity.

“Are you…Altered hunters?” Tom asked, unsure whether this was a good thing or a bad thing for his friend.
