My Predator System Chapter 61: Bare necessities
The bear ran after her and Eden screamed running into the portico. They hurried through the hallway and it broke though the glass, chasing them."The cafeteria." He contended, the bear was no slow-poke, he could testify to that. He lured the bear further. It roared picking up speed and stopped at the open doors to the cafeteria when there was no sign of him. It recoiled in case of more humans and then walked in. Maks shrunk behind the door and it marched into the scattered cafetaria. Nudging metal trays down. He lured the cubs to follow. [ That's good ]He crawled out and shut the doors.[ Well done M.A.K.S. Your bravery has earned you a new animal ][ The Ostrich ] "Seriously." [ The ostrich is known for its speed and its tendency to roll in the sand and play dead whenever it is frightened.]... Eden Moore stepped outside hesitantly of the janitor's closet, it was quiet and the place looked like a crime scene. The doors were broken and the floors were littered with bloodstained

"Why would you ask?" She said in abrupt denial, a lump forming in her throat. He mugged, she was trying to make him look stupid."Because you've been stalking me like a creep?" He said and heads turned. He remembered the day he got the stomach flu and she had the camera flashing in his face. He was not afraid to cause a scene."All right, before this gets more embarrassing than it already is...I was only taking photos of you because...I have an art project and I needed a model. I guess I got carried away with...references." She let out hiding behind a history book. "I figured it would be better to take photos of you under natural circumstances where I...can...capture real emotion...""Like that one..." She muttered."What a relief." He said folding his arms. "Maybe find someone else and quit bothering me!"She bit her lip when he pushed past her and resorted to borrowing the books instead..... In the late hours of the afternoon. The mimic threw the battered merchant into the trash
My Predator System Chapter 63
Dom/Imago gazed at him for a moment, it did not care for his history with the host but the fact that he just referred to it as a despot would not go unanswered. ..."So, you think I'm a tyrant? Aye.""I guess you are. You can call me names, you can beat me up, but do not touch my sister!" He punched Dom and he fell over."I have no business with the child. More or less, your stupid feline.""Okay, Jess, go inside. I'll meet you there."He said and she limped inside the nursery with East. Peeping by the door."You don't stand a chance against me." Imago said. "Apologize now, evildoer before things get ugly.""Trust me, it will. I'm taking you on that fight." "It seems to me...Maks like you don't understand who exactly you are dealing with.""If that's what it takes to get you to take a hike! I don't owe you any apologies, because you've been bugging me for a long time now. You're the one who obviously needs fixing, I'm not afraid of you and if you want a brawl then you're getting on

"Yeah, sure, go ahead.""Can you fly without wings?""What?" He said in the heavy breeze. "Can you fly without wings? Like a sparrow or a hummingbird! That sort of stuff." He winced. "I never thought of that and I don't even plan on trying." He added sternly and she dropped her finger pouting."You're fun at parties." She muttered."Hey, the worst that can happen is a broken neck. Oh and my bills. Months of recovery. Which I don't have_time for.""Okay, just say when." She asserted and he mugged. They walked through the park where the dust storms plagued them the most. The trees were coated by dust and sunlight crept into their faces while they strolled. She marvelled at the webs covering the branches like canopies. "It's that time of the year yet? Nasty." A man grumpily swept patches of colorful latex on the floor by a cart while the officer wrote a ticket. They moved past a tree with porcupine quills embedded on it. Artemis kicked up a balloon with the back of her heel while s

"Venti? How dare you!? I am not a Venti!." Lightning crept through his veins and he held his breath when he struck again. Maks gazed at the maelstrom of dust, it looked like rushing dam water only dusty. He gulped and faced Tempest. "Technical question, is it the whole world? Or is it just one region?"His eyes blazed with electricity. "Because it seems to me like you can do a lot worse!" A gust of wind tossed, turned him, It dragged him in upside down. The hurricane beneath Tempest whipped like a helicopter as he spiralled around him."I assure you..." He read his library card. "Maks Anchorman."_and tossed it away. "That the world will know how truly DANGEROUS dust storms can be. Even the government won't recover from this.""Well la-di-da. This all sounds like some climate change propaganda."Tempest's eyes lit up. "You're not far from it my boy." Maks looked down and eyes rounded at the dusty tempest and the ghastly storm in the shape of horses leaping inside hungry for his do

He rubbed his head. "Nothing expensive, Vic."Victor blinked. "That's fine, it's nice to have a change of scenery though.""I guess." Maks reclined on the stairs. He turned edgy at Dom approaching. He tilted his head upwards with a smirk on his face. Maks's face twitched when he frowned."What's up, M*nnie Mouse?" He hollered and Maks stood up, Dom towered over him. "What do you want?""Whoa, watch your language, buddy, I just came here to apologize." He touched his chest. "I understand I haven't been very fair to you and I was kind of a jerk. But we can all look back someday and laugh."Maks looked unphased, there could be more of Imago's offspring living inside him for all he knew. "How's your head?""Fine." His ears turned pink. "Look." He raked his hair and Maks got a glimpse of the nasty scrapes on his temple. He had a bruise on his cheek and chin too. "I understand we haven't been on friendly terms a lot, so...I'm gonna leave you on a good note, I won't...bother you anymore."

Victor ducked and Artemis paled as quill grazed her arm. She tossed her seashell at one ready to fire again. They fled and turned to the flurry of quills that went flying back and forth. Beach-goers fled to their cars. Meanwhile, Maks floated on the surface of the water with his arms spread out in the distance closing his eyes and a sea turtled drifted around him underwater and zipped off. His eyes opened and he frowned at the swimmers moving past him. He watched the shoot-out agitated, ordinarily, there was no way porcupines could shoot quills like arrows. They were feral too. The real porcupines were in as much trouble as they were. Artemis tossed a rock, it rammed one over on its back and the others glanced at it shortly and reassembled hissing and gathering them like ants Victor saw a driver on a jet ski coming toward the shore at full speed and he drifted letting the jetstream of water blast them. The porpentines were repelled."Quick, how many of them are there?" She"Fift
My Predator System Chapter 68
He lurched at the sea urchin rolling away, a temperamental octopus blazed violently with colours and dragged by the rocks. Amid the rocks, the creature opened its eyes watching the strange silhouette meander. It crept out of its cavern going after him. He thought he heard a dolphin close by or an orca whale. He whirled around in the murky waters and caught its webbed hands in his grip. He grunted and it hissed trying to make minced meat out of his face with its razor-sharp teeth clattering like a piranha's. It had the face of an angler fish except it had no outgrowth, its eyes instead were two bulbs of glowing bacteria, it had the body of a woman, skin and a tail as coarse as a goliath grouper. It had arms. It made a piercingly loud sound like an alarm. More rose from the caverns. Maks stuffed its mouth with a rock and lanced it with its own fang, the others lunged at him and he spread out in the fashion of a Portuguese Man-of-War. They were hydrozoans. The groupies looked stunned

He shuddered. Those men didn't deserve to live, he clutched his pillow. The day after that was the time he started to realize that he could see dead people. These people were crooks, they sold him to a factory disguised as an orphanage home. Teagan's breathing was heavy at the women asking for his name. He had a hard time communicating, he didn't want to. They shaped him up by beating him. The worst he had was being covered with a sack if he mishbehaved and the tap running over his face until he gave in. He always had a hard time following routines. He lived with an abusive foster father named Randall Barton, his wife Alice and their adopted children, he trusted him to his word. He took care of him gradually until he started to get violent. He even employed the children to beat him up. He asked what was the point of adopting him. Unfortunately all he was good for was being a punching bag. The only good thing he learned was English. His imaginary friends translated and taught him to s

Teagan looked anxious, he slouched walking through the gates. The workers grimaced at him and BlackJack picked up speed. He ran to the house and he paled when he met Ares. "Where have you been!?" Keisha said."I just went for a walk." Teagan said twirling his hand on his leash."I know you went to...You're not allowed to step outside. Running away was completely stupid." Keisha said aware now and he blushed at Harley. "Yeah, I know, I just needed some fresh air. I'm alive aren't I?" He barked defensively. He was acting weird. He bloomed walking away faster. He couldn't handle criticism. He marched upstairs and the room was as dirty as it was before. He was repulsed. "You didn't clean yet?" He said to Keisha who relaxed on the couch.She dropped her magazine. "I'm sorry I said all those mean things about you.""We're cool. Just as long as long as you don't keep any weapons. No more pranks, not more antics." She said. "Clean this up.""Where are all the ghost workers?""They're on a

"Not that one, Chief. I was born in Nigeria, West Africa. The Igbos, a major ethnic group currently were looking for independence to become The Biafrans after the British colonialists united the tripod stands of the country, the east, north and the western region.The colonizers left eventually after the independence in 1960. There was a blockade and My father Festus Ebube Okoye who identified as a Biafran and my mother Catherine Nneoma Okoye starved along with the rest of our people. He was passionate about seperating from Nigeria. The Biafrans lost the war against the Nigerians ultimately and there was no secession. My father was wounded inside and out. We had to move here to save our hides. My father had a score with Ares to settle. They worked together in the past. He owed him his life and he wanted some kind of reward for aiding him."So Ares supports this kinds of stuff?""Yeah. He wanted him to "give him what rightfully belonged to him". His loyalty. My siblings were just 9,7,6

"N_no no, I'll show you." Teagan tossed BlackJack's dented log at the glass doubledoors and it shattered to pieces.Irma's jaw dropped. "You broke it, is something wrong with you?" She glanced at a broom by the door perking up and moving in a sweeping motion to gather up the glass. Irma glanced at Teagan who looked shocked. His expression changed. "See?""As dumb as that demonstration was, it's brilliant.""Really?...I mean yes. I'm more genius than any of you give me credit for." He gazed at his fingernails."You can hear them.""Yes." He said smiling proudly. "Okay then, what's he saying?" She asked and he blushed. Maybe she thought the ghost standing there was just a coincidence.Irma winced at the inappropriate words. "@#$¥ *&?@@@####. Why are you helping you f#cking bitch?""Okay, that's enough." She said alarmed. "It's a kid named Oscar...he's 19. Died trying to pull a stunt on a dirtbike and drowned in the pond.""Get inside, Teagan, you've caused enough trouble." Keisha f
Chapter 208
Over the days, Teagan moved around the house, he cursed at the workers and vandalized things, Ares didn't show the slightest interest or whether to kick him out. He was perplexed. Harley, Irma and Keisha were in their final year and they were going to college. And parties. He was left home alone with BlackJack whom he was afraid of. BlackJack was trying to approach him and he ducked throwing pillows at him.BlackJack grabbed a pillow chasing after him. He ran away past the halls and cried out when BlackJack placed his paw on his chest. "Stop." Ares said to him and he vanished. Teagan gazed at him through glassy eyes. Ares vanished too.... Ares was not even giving Irma a hard time as Keisha claimed to. He didn't trust her to her words anyway. He taught her to kick box and she was getting tired of doing the same moves all the time. She meandered around a sandbag punching and kicking.Teagan watched them from a boulder with binoculars as she lunged backwards.Irma tried the s

Teagan was afraid that she would shred them to pieces. Worst of all, Ares was coming home to meet him. He didn't like the looks of him. His aura made him feel things and see things he didn't want to see, yet he was easily drawn to the past, he relived it everyday in his head. That was why he wanted to stay as far away from Ares as possible.He lived with assassins too. Irma arrived with Harley in the house of Ares. Irma ducked at the box drifting over her head. "What are those?""Ghost workers, they agreed to work for Ares in death." "Until after death you mean?""They won't be leaving anytime soon, they can keep working for him if they want.""Oh my god. What if some of them try to kill him or you?""They won't. They have a contract." Harley said.Irma shook her head as they explored the house. "So this is where you live?" "Yes and No, I live with my dad, Eric. I just come here for visits.""So how is he?"Harley turned sad, he suffered 10 years of tragedy but the tragedy wasn't

"Will you come lie next to me?" He said.He groaned she laid back too hard. "Scooch." She could hear the fluids in his lungs while he was breathing. The place was so quiet. She would rather be anywhere else talking to a person than being her with her thoughts, but he was sick."I can feel the gurgling too, that's disgusting and don't even try to kiss me with that virus." She was content.He was feeling feverish and tried to make conversation. "My head hurts...""Mmm.""I'm sure letting you stay in bed with me is probably against hospital policy.""You're such a bad boy." She said sarcastically.They were together now and she did not want to infringe on their pact. "Can I use my phone?""That's fine, it gets boring in the hospital anyway." He said fatigued and he had a sense of Deja vu. "Please don't take pictures of me like this, I look sick."She typed. "It's fine. I just need it for my secret album. What do you think about #Marley?" She flooded the space with many heart emojis."Tha

"You need to stop playing games.""Really, you wanna talk game? You were trying to make me jealous with Irma." His eyebrows rose. "I wasn't.""What was that look. Really? When we were at that night club, you were staring at her. Like really staring."Irma exhaled. "Oh my god, you guys." She muttered rolling her eyes. "Yeah because we had a duet. I was nervous and I tend to look at people dead in the eye when that happens_Maybe I was jealous when you started feeding Dom orange slices.""Only because he was making rude advances. I had to protect myself.""You left me on the street after date night.""Yeah, you were having car trouble and I was trying to be friendly and to save money." She whispered. "You could have just said you were angry instead of shutting me out.""Oh." He said, he was unreasonable when it came to love and the reason why he strangely felt short was because she was still on heels. "I was wrong to have made you think that Dom and I could actually be a thing. But you

Will you stop this madness at once!?"Dom glanced at the burly old man dressed sharp, he held Horacio's hand, he was stained with mud and cheese. Dom roared drowsy from too much alcohol. Alberto spat on the floor. "Now, what is going on? You get off him.""Sorry, Tio, he locked Horacio up again and now he's harra_""What's going on?" Dom rose up. "She's been spending all my money on this useless son of a bitch." He yelled at Harley. "You won't even let me touch you!"Harley's eyes glistened at the name-calling. "Last time I checked, we were friends, not lovers."They were laughing at Dom. He just ratted himself out. She played him for a fool now."I do not care. You can keep all that he gave to you, Chamaca...it's yours." Alejandro said to Harley. "I'm very sorry."Dominic. What is this I'm hearing? You mistreat your brothers. And you let him!?" He shoved Rex.Rex spoke profusely in Spanish. "He threatened to take away my funding and to kick me out of the house. He's family and I'm g
