MONSTER HUNTING Without our master
We have been falling. It was like the departure was carried out in slow motion. Charlize extended her hand out and screamed Athena's name. Master Athena...her body was burning brutally. The poison was consuming her, the cloud around her filling with smoke. However, the demonic humanoid structure was slayed by her half-conscious state. It was a wreck, even for me.Suddenly, the feeling had returned.Dimensional transference. "Dane! Do not drift away!" She screamed in the fraction of the second left for us to land on earth.The vortex was unstable for some reason. And as we met the ground, the damp soil underneath our feet, we watched the vortex collapse with a bang.I tucked my head with my arms, watching white dust and glitter cover us up as the portal has been degenerated over our heads.Through sparkling material, I turned around, watching out for any danger or a predatory animal in this subcontinent.Looks like he landed in the safest place possible, away from monsters. We wer
MONSTER HUNTING Your power that scares you
How could this be true?It seems so unreal."Dane, you couldn't grasp how strong you've grown because of the Guild. Must be the difference in terrains which makes you feel this way. It's alright." She's right. Charlize knows the difference between the atmosphere of the Guild and earth. The main reason was that, Guild atmosphere is extremely competitive. I never felt the difference in my power amongst such good warriors. It was a dream, which ended all too well and quickly."Are you alright, Dane?" Holding my arm, Charlize asks as I nod softly."I'm fine, I am. It's just overwhelming." "Are you...sure you're not a monster yourself, sir?" The African dude suddenly asks, seeming scared and witless as he approaches us."I'm not. But did you even wipe your ass, Mister? Roaming around like that?""I did. With a leaf." "Huh. While we were fighting the monster?" Charlize was skeptical, so was I. "I am a clean pooper. But, moving on, I think the coast is nearby sir." I lift my eyebrow at h
MONSTER HUNTING Powerful duo, back in New York
~Author~Welp, because by the time the trio on a stolen military grade helicopter were gliding down on an abandoned helipad that evening, the monster transformations below on the floors look up. "Oi~" The monsters had cognition, broken linguistic skills and knowledge from their previous owners. The Tier of monsters, almost all fifty six of them, was tyrant. "Can feel...it." A monster croaked. Three other monster transformations on the same floor gaze up, dead and half eaten humans in their hands. Their height was around three meters tall, filling up the space between floor and ceiling. "Strong...force." The monsters speak again, taking a deep breath in through their dirty, wide nostrils. Strong force of the fire would always mean the meat of the Radge Hawker would be nutritious. Nutritious, on the basis of pushing the monsters up their rank.For now, the monsters were tyrant Tier. But after consuming the meat of someone with black force, they'll quickly gain every ability a monste
MONSTER HUNTING The abandoned city of New York
"How long," Climbing over another piece of fallen debris, Dane asks Charlize in a soft voice, "Has this city been closed for?""That, we have to ask Master Chen. She has been here for the past five months when you were unconscious. She knows better." Charlize answered in a soft voice as well. "Well then. We will ask her right away." Dane says, his curiosity was above the charts because he wanted to know what happened to his city. And where were all the humans at all."Liz, how did they keep the humans away from monsters? Is someone from the Guild helping them?" "I don't think so, Dane. The Guild is dealing with blaming from Humanity. Tier 3 master Radge Hawkers are being questioned every day.""Why is Dr. Chen allowed to stay on earth then?" "Because master Chen could never trigger that event even if she was a Tier 3. She has the special ability to hide her signature of Force from monsters. At least they can't sniff her out. That is why she has a public profession anyway." Dane mad
MONSTER HUNTING Slashing through like a storm
Dane whirred past the monsters at an incredible beast. He was as fast as the lightning, even in that speed, however, not missing to slash through each one of the monsters. To Charlize, the man looked menacing and handsome like the God of Death raining down on the monsters. It wasn't the time to think flowery, however. In no time, Dane had slain through hundreds of monsters in the thin pathway of one kilometer of length. "Phew..." the exhausted man sat down, but not as exhausted as Charlize felt simply by running behind him. "You...race like a horse. You know that?" The man chuckled, she found it sexy."You're simply lazy, metal girl. Well, how do we get inside now?" Dane asks. His eye catches the movement of a monster trying to rise from the ground as he slashes it into two pieces again."You're not even subtle about this shit." Said Charlize, Dane couldn't help but laugh. He let his sword mix into thin air, it was going back to it's realm. Dane sat on the ground, not worried abo
MONSTER HUNTING A hug will heal you
Dane walked past, but now that everyone rests assured that the strongest Radge Hawker was now against them. A sense of security spreads through their chest. Despite the blood he is drenched in, his human admirers began patting his shoulder as he walked by. Dane was taller than most, standing tall at 6' 4, he was a gentle giant who smiled all until he reached a room in the first floor. A ward which was empty so he could at least freshen up."Yo, Dane! You don't have clothes tho!" Charlize was in the room, assisting him as she had to use it after him as well. She knocked on the door after hearing no response.On the other hand, Dane was lost deep in his thoughts.The humans...they liked him because he was protecting them. Isn't that too one sided? He might be into altruism, but too much altruism will get him nowhere and he knows that it's his reality. "Dane!" He springs back to reality, Charlize has been knocking on the door for a minute or more.Turning the faucet close, he opens th
MONSTER HUNTING It's alright, we will be strong
Dane Artemas Summer and Charlize were the best at hunting monsters, but they had a big problem: they were super hungry at the end of the day. They couldn't enjoy their food because they knew the hard work of healthcare workers and felt sad about it. So, they only had a little bit to eat—just three slices of bread and a small sip of milk for each meal.That night, after a long day of hunting monsters, Dane and Charlize sat outside on the terrace. Charlize couldn't help but look into the abyss and ponder for the rest of her time beside the male. However, Charlize was curious why Dane was exercising so late instead of resting."Hey, why are you working out so late at night? Don't you want to get some sleep?" Charlize asked."Liz, I need to make myself strong. I have to be ready for any tough situation that may come my way," explained Dane, who was a skilled monster hunter. The most celebrated Radge Hawker.He believed that being prepared and strong was essential for his job. It wasn't j
MONSTER HUNTING An altruistic man
"Oi...look up the sky..." A man pointed towards the flying piece of eclipse through the night sky. Dane carried a huge Wal-Mart rack worth food and other canned things as he flew from over the barrier. He landed on top of the hospital roof. Indeed, it would crate havoc as within five minutes, the news spreads amongst all humans living up on the surface. Within the barrier. "Shit. This is a problem now." Charlize says."Nothing is a bigger problem than keeping them hungry, Liz. They will be fine." "I hope so. Go downs will have more stock somewhere.""Then we will get them all in here." Three days have passed by. Dane has used his day and night to bring in supplies from throughout the city. Fifteen million people have be fed everyday. The shortage of food will either make everyone kill each other or worse.Makio Chen had woken up. She groans at the commotion and sounds of people talking continuously from her third floor window. Makio Chen had been sleeping since three days to re

Old Man was murdered!
Seems like the Eliminator had noticed them! Upon seeing Alex and Dane rush up towards him, the monster shapeshifted into human skin bites its bottom lip. 'Why aren't we allowed to use our powers here again?' Asked Dane to Athena.'Because we don't want to cause panic within the audience. Besides, did i just hear that right? Old Man was murdered and was left to rot?''Yeah. That's the base of what Alex said. Besides, we're chasing it now. It's walking towards some little hallway. We hope we can catch up.''Right. Chadwick is coming your way too. Don't let the monster escape again. Even if we have to tear this place down with a fight, we will. That monster needs to be taken down at all costs.' Said Athena in their joint resonance.'Understood.' Replying to her instructions in unison, the group dispersed to corner the monster. To catch it and enquire a lot, lot things about it's species.'It's gone into the hallway. Dane has eyes on it.''You know it's going to disappear in a flash, rig

Old Man
"Might as well begin searching for him in the crowd if that's the case. If it can shapeshift...so should we. It's main target, is me." Dane concludes. Athena sighs as she tries to explain the situation to Dane."How do I know what is the real monster if I can't even sense it? This is a ridiculous job.""That's weird coming from you, Athena." Dane furrowed his eyebrows."Lady Athena seems different today. What happened to you, Lady Athena?" "Shouldn't I feel bothered that this monster is slowly becoming much untraceable and powerful than us? It's uncanny. It shouldn't be this way. Hunting is supposed to just...happen. All of this doesn't happen in Monster Hunting." Alex clicks his tongue at Athena's words."Well, welcome to the world of brains then. We use it to hunt, too." Dane wanted to laugh at how witty Alex had sounded. But he knew his own lover would be disappointed with him. Sulking in a corner and all."Whatever. Just let me know what are we doing to hunt this monster down."

Downgrading to trace
Dane was about to walk away when Athena quickly reached out for his arm. Looking over his shoulder, he spoke."I'm going to go there alone, Athena. No one can stop me. Not you either." "I know I can't stop you. He's got on our nerves for sure. But what you can do is let us on this mission as well. You, me, Charlize, Makio and Joule. Maybe Johan and Luke Crysalis too." "What about Chadwick?" Dane immediately enquired."Him too. Because we need to travel at the speed of light, to chase that monster down. Now, I know this monster looks like it likes to play games, but isn't that too much for a mere monster? I feel as if we're trying to hunt nothing.""You think it'll be an easy task because it's a bloody, low grade monster, Athena?" Turning around, Dane looked into her eyes. She nods softly."But weren't you the one who's told me 'never underestimate your opponents'?" "Right...thank you for humbling me." The woman was clearly annoyed. She walked past him while Dane lifts his head to l

Untraceable
"We've lost it! I can't believe we lost it!" Dane held himself back from punching or even stomping the ground for he could demolish the whole building, taking down the residents of it with himself. "You need to calm down, Dane.""The fuck I cannot, Dane. It's an important asset! A new kind that has become such a menace! You know how menacing lightspeed is yourself. And it's punches, it's fight is at least Athena's level."'Liz, I hope you're keeping track of where this monster goes, right?' 'You mean by seeing who it kills next? I'm keeping the face match on.''Okay. The moment you know it's killed someone...and drank their blood. Let me know. At this point, if it keeps killing monster hunters with powers, it'll grow undefeatable. I'm afraid even I—''What are you talking about? That's not the prophecy I know about you! Stop yapping like a child and come back here so we can send you back to where it'll attack next.''Yes.'"You heard her, right Chad?""Yeah. At times of dilemma, yo

A new Kind of monster
Furrowing his eyebrows, Dane didn't really get the signal from Dylan. Why would he need to a build a new counter attack in the robots if monster hunters were more than enough to end monsters?"It's simple logic, thick-skull. My warriors don't have resonances. Chimera do, not my warriors." Dane felt like the most stupid imp ever. Sitting down on the chair again, he questioned Dylan, yet again. "So what do you plan on doing with these?""Create stability. Some monsters could evolve to hide their resonances from us. But my warriors will distinguish them by their attitude. It's easier to find a monster in a crowd full of people than find a human in a crowd full of monsters." Dane jumped his eyebrows at Dylan Dian."That's very much true. And oddly...philosophical. Well, I give you permission to upgrade every single one of them and send them across the globe. Or do you test the prototype first?" "The latter, then the first suggestion. I'd send them without your permission or grant anyway.

Someone is fooling us
Around three weeks after the incident, the monster hunting headquarters was stable with minimal case reports recorded ever. There were barely any monsters emerging from the dead and deed. It felt...blissful."How many cases today?" To the beeping sounds of machines, Charlize asks as she sits over the cushion of a chair opposite to it. Munching on a small snack she could afford from a vending machine, she placed her legs on the desk and waited for the numbers to show up."45 since morning, huh? Well, it's evening already." Charlize then looked down at her lap."Or is this a sign that something big is coming, again? Like the calm before a storm?" "What are you mumbling to yourself there, love?" Dylan Dian speaks after hearing her from the distance. "Thank you for the tea, Dylan." The man chuckles at how she dismisses him. "It's not the calm before the storm. Trust me. This is...peace." Charlize stares into his grey eyes as he nods."Believe it or not. With the power we now have, mons

"Did you...hear her?" Holding the glass of champagne in his hand, Dane turned to the sound of her. She looked normal, but her heart was thudding out of her chest. Walking into his embrace as they view the ocean, breathing its mist, Athena waits for his response."I did. I am not shaken. This doesn't feel like new information for me. That power...it seemed alien in many ways." Explained he."I see. Even I couldn't...""Don't think about it, Athena. It's going to keep killing you until you finally realize how worthless you are.""You are forcing me to think about the same, Dane. Thank you for the word, too. Worthless." Athena scoffed. "But...don't you think we should start investigating?" "How would we do that if we can't even track where it has come from? The monster wouldn't open it's mouth even by a bit. It's...resisting every torture method, healing at the speed of light. No drugs work on it either because it isn't from earth. There are several earth element users who kept it locke

'So that is what you meant...alright.'He breathes calmly and runs his finger along the blade which glows black. The slash he made through the monster's chest defeated it, but it was kept alive. "I believe you are made of water as well. Let me manipulate your molecules to follow my command..." Dane's Force-Human form brought darkness to the clouds. His powers were...increasing. "I feel a nasty amount of Force oozing out of him. What did he do...?" Joule asked Makio Chen. The woman shook her head, having no idea of what she saw either. "I don't know what is going on, but it looks like Dane just won." Keeping his eye on the monster, Dane slowly turned his gaze to look at Athena. She just stood, recovered from her injuries as she stared at him. He flew towards her, slowly getting his human self back."Hi..." he slowly uttered to greet her yet again. They've been apart for a few days, but it felt like an eternity. "See. Like I said...it's just the beginning. This thing inside me...it

Revelations
The monster turned around, having had a layer of its back blasted off by Dane. It smirked, looking at his levitating figure with amusement like no other."So you are finally here...""Yes. I am. You called me here. You summoned me here...by hurting the people I love the most.""Oh? Her? You're talking about this...wimp?" Dane glared at the monster who picked up Athena again. The poor woman was already in pain, her muscles and bones shifting to recover. The monster crushes her again, almost bursting her head off. Dane couldn't tolerate her blood curdling scream. He went straight into the monster's face!However, the monster's speed was such a menace...even for him! 'This is bad...I can't risk getting you to take my form either. You don't have enough energy yourself.''You're a fool if you think I can't grow stronger. Did you forget I am literally a part of the universe? Let me stay still for a while, I will absorb some force for you.''You...can do that?''When I'm in shape myself,
