It hadn't been too long since Gary had set foot in this place, the Wolf's Pool Club, yet he had found himself back here again and sooner than they expected.Not only was Gary present, but all of the core members from the Howlers were upstairs playing pool with each other.It turned out yesterday was an exhausting event for all of them. Although they had been able to defend the factory with ease, they were silent on the car ride back with each other.When they got home, they had all fallen asleep immediately. As for Gary, he had given his sister another surprise visit and stayed over.The thing was they had slept till midday, nearly all of them, until they had received a message from him for all of them to meet at the Wolf's Pool Club.It was closed for the day stating that there was a private work event and the whole place had been booked out."You should all enjoy today." Kai said, as he threw a small cocktail sausage in the air and caught it in his mouth. "Everyone did a good job ye
Thanks to his enhanced hearing, Kai was able to make out the sound of someone being at the door, even from downstairs in his office. Wondering who it might be at this late hour, he decided to take a break from the paperwork and find out. It was only when he was at the stairs that he noticed that the noise didn’t belong to a single individual, but a small group. Not fearing for his own safety, the Werewolf opened the door. “It's rare to see visitors at this time of night.” Kai stated as he got a good look at the three before him. After a slight moment of surprise from suddenly having the door opened from the inside, the visitors immediately bowed down. “W-we are so sorry for disturbing you late at night…sir.” A female voice stuttered.“Don't you think that's a bit much? He looks the same age as us.” A male voice spoke his mind. As a result, the boy received a kick from his female companion, making the other boy shake his head for ruining their first impression.“Your friend is righ
In the middle of the night, in a place like this, Numba didn’t expect to have to fight. Neither did he expect to get a door slammed into his face, and he wasn’t too pleased about it. His instincts were telling him to transform, as the person in front of him clearly had no good intentions coming here. The horns grew from his head and the shape of his feet were changing slightly already breaking through his shoes. “Who the hell is that guy?! Why did he do that?” Ian asked puzzled about the sudden intrusion.“I don’t know him, but we can be sure that he’s not a friend of the Howlers based on his entrance.” Izzy commented, as she started to transform as well. The hair on her head started to clump together, growing larger, turning into six separate hands.“Should I transform as well? Isn’t that overkill against just one guy?” Ian commented. “Besides, maybe this is just some sort of giant misunderstanding?”“Where are they?” The man in the Hawaiian shirt questioned them. “Where are the peo
During their time at the academy, the three Altered students had seen Gary transform his appendages many times. They still recalled how shaken up they had been seeing it for the first time, yet without realising it they had grown used to it. As such, seeing Kai and Olivia do the same during the gang war had not really phased them.Thanks to that experience, seeing Midwak to do the same and attack them with his deadly claws and strength, the trio hadn’t been frightened into inaction. Nevertheless, all of that changed now as they stared at his bestial form. From head to toe, it felt like they were staring at a wall of muscle.In his full Werewolf form, Midwak was around eight feet tall, his head only around a foot shy of touching the ceiling. His razor sharp teeth had bits of saliva dropping off its teeth onto the floor. Their natural instinct told the three Altered that they should run away, rather than face such a creature."They’re in full Altered form!" Ian shouted as he pointed at
Numba was reluctant to follow the orders from Kai. Who in their right mind would send away three Altered, much less if those happened to be talented AFA students? Sure, the Goat Altered had to admit that the grey Werewolf was faring better against Midwak than their trio, but… was that really the right thing? When he looked at the condition of Ian, who had been hit twice, most likely suffering internal damage, and the side of his friend’s face was swelling up, it became clear that the three of them were not really in fighting conditions anymore. Then there was Izzy whose shoulder was bleeding quite badly. Her clothes had already been dyed red, and would have to be discarded later.‘I don’t want to leave him on his own… but I need to look after my friends. They came along with me just to help out, I can’t let them die.’ Numba, almost closing his eyes, ran to his allies because if he could see what was going on, he thought there was a higher chance for him to jump in. He picked up Ian
In the first place, the chances of running into someone who would perhaps know Gary were low. Sure, he was a member of the Howlers, the gang that controlled the city, but that was exactly it. As far as they knew, he was just a member, nothing more, nothing less. Yet, their desperate pleas had been heard by a certain someone, and at the same time, the wounds on their body had caused a certain person to be interested.‘What are the chances that this crazy idea actually worked and we not only found someone who knows Gary, but can also help us out in this situation.’ Izzy wondered. The three of them were Altered from the AFA, so how much help could a random passerby actually be in this situation, but then again, now wasn’t the time to question those things.“I don’t know where he is, but I have his number. Let me text him… you said to tell him that he’s urgently needed at the Wolf’s Pool Club, right?” The stranger replied, as he was already sending a text.“Yeah, that’s correct. Can you a
A heavy figure had landed in front of them, causing a cloud of dust to rise up, like in a superhero movie. However, the group wasn't yet sure if the figure with the red, glowing eyes was a hero or a villain.“Gary!” Numba called out as he recognised the figure. Gary had noticed the others from above as he had been heading towards a certain location in his fully transformed state. He was in a desperate situation and didn't care about conserving his Energy, but when he saw the others, he still thought it was best not to frighten them with his full form, thus reverting to his Controlled Transformation."You're bleeding," Gary said urgently, mostly concerned for Izzy. "What happened?" He was surprised to see the three of them in the same city, especially since they were traveling with Olivia, but their injuries were a more pressing concern. The bite marks on their bodies were large and deep, causing Gary to worry.“We were looking for you everywhere!” Ian replied. “Did you get the text m
It was hard for one to look at such a sight, yet at the same time everyone there felt like they needed to. The entire pool club had been destroyed, the glass, the bar, every inch and corner. It was unrecognisable compared to the place it was once before.At the same time, there were markings of blood in every area, and the same could be said about Kai’s body. Deep cuts had been made, tearing through his skin, and a lot of blood had been lost. The others didn’t want to say anything, as they looked at Gary just standing there. He was looking at the whole scene for a few seconds, and then suddenly opened his mouth after the cry. “Call the hospital and get an ambulance here immediately!” Gary shouted. “One of you, go get some food, it's vital for him, and I’ll take him down!”Gary quickly rushed over to Kai, he first pulled the nail that was located in Kai’s chest and threw the piece of paper to the side, and soon got to work pulling out the other nails. “Wait… is he alive?” Ian asked.
