“What connection did that guy have with Crixes” I asked myself while stabilizing my breath, I always prayed that I shouldn’t have to go through that same experience again, this was because it made me feel so weak.After calming myself down, I decided that whatever it was, I would keep my eyes peeled, seeming as if there were so many secrets being kept under wraps from me, I would slowly peel away the binds that enclosed all the secrets and find whatever they were trying to hide, but I needed to take it one step at a time.This new experience reminded me of my need to get stronger, and now the best option was to train, now that I had a training partner, I knew that my speed of progression would increase.Since there were three days left before we would head out to hunt the Mutant, I decided to use all m time for preparations. So for the whole of the three days, I made up a routine.I would always be found cooped up in my room, undergoing training with the system or training with Sasha,
“That sounded really close, we have to get to him fast” Aiden said as we rushed toward where we had heard Major Kevin’s scream.As we arrived at the scene, Major Frank who was at the front paused and immediately went on guard as we followed suit, examining our surroundings carefully.“Cover me, I’m going in” He said to us, signaling for us to scan the surrounding for any sign of the enemy.Major Frank rushed to the body and bent down close to it before examining it cautiously, when he was done, he looked up but spotted nothing, it seems like whatever had done this had gone into hiding.“He’s dead” Major Frank sighed and got up, this allowed us to also move over and check the body.“It’s the same method of killing as that of the bat” I said after inspecting Major Kevin’s headless body, it was like his head had been sliced off and chewed like gum because I could see brain matter mixed with flesh on the ground.“He’s really dead” Aiden said with a look of shock.“How long has it been sin
“What the hell was that?” Aiden asked in fright after storming into the attic, he and Major Frank had heard the gunshots and had rushed here at once.“That was the thing that killed Kevin and I think you already knew that didn’t you?” I replied then turned to Major Frank who frowned at my question, his eyes squinted at the sight of the roof, instead of replying to the question posed to him, he walked to Cross and swiped some of the goo on his shoulder and then stared at it deeply before sighing.“Let’s go” Major Frank said calmly then walked toward the exit of the attic.“Hey I asked you a question ‘Captain’, I’ve put up with your bullshit for long enough, you better start talking before I make you, what is really going on and what was that thing just now?” I asked with anger while grabbing his arm.“Do you have a death wish? I said let’s go” Major Frank glanced at me with rage in his eyes.“Let me just make this clear to you, I don’t take orders from you, I’ve endured your crap for s
“No wonder he’s hunting you guys down and now that I’ve attacked it, I’m also now one of its targets, using humans as test subjects, how disgraceful, I knew it from the start, ever since I stepped into the base, I felt that something was off, how could you bear to use innocent victims for your selfish means” I said in anger, even though I was glad that I was right, I had to admit that I felt disappointed in the government, after all I used to be with them, they taught me almost all I knew and for me to find this skeleton in their closet, it unnerved me a little.“It was for the greater good” Major Frank said, his expression saying that he really though they were doing the right thing.“No amount of progress is worth sacrificing an innocent life, this apocalypse has made you all so mad that you’ve forgotten the significance of a human life” I was shocked by his words, how could he spout such nonsense.“In the process of trying to create a better world, we didn’t realize that we fell in
“Archie!” The soldiers yelled after seeing the spear pierce through the other soldier’s head.“Gugugrrr” After making some inaudible mutterings, Archie fell to the ground as the structure was pulled out of his head.Watching this scene made the two others tremble in fright, they tried to reach for their guns but their hands refused to listen to that order, they could only watch as a dreadful human figure walked out of the darkness into the light where they could see its full appearance.“Haa, so many memories” The figure chuckled with a grin while the soldiers stared at it with mixed feelings.The figure was pale similar to a dead human, he had two normal eyes which could not actually be called normal since they were red, there was also a bright eye on his forehead that stayed shut, and his black scattered hair which flayed to the side and his arms from which the spear extended from, only served to make his appearance more menacing.“Hey guys, what’s up?” The figure who the others rec
“I can smell you, wherever you’re hiding I will find you, hihiihi” The hybrid chuckled creepily while searching the room for Sasha, his nose sniffing around like a dog.‘Shit’ Sasha cursed in her mind while thinking of what to do, she couldn’t just sit her ass down for this creep to find her, who knew what kind of sick thoughts were going on in his mind, plus he was holding a bloodied knife which further worsened the case, for all she knew he could be a serial rapist killer or a serial killer rapist or a rapist serial….., it didn’t even matter, all that mattered to Sasha now was to get to safety.“I have to make a run for it” Sasha planned as she stared at the creep killer scanning the rooms for her, she had to make a run for it when his attention was elsewhere, he was already done searching most of the rooms, he was left with the kitchen and her room so if she was going to act, she had to act now.“Now” Sasha muttered silently and dashed out of the room toward the door, she was sure
“Haa, I was wondering when you would finally pop out, you kept us waiting” Ted grinned while gazing at us from a seat, surrounding him were his criminal hybrid goons.“Wow it’s such a nice cult you have there, I guess the saying that birds of the same feather flock together is true” Major Frank said to Ted who laughed, his expression so carefree and calm that it pissed me off.I looked around, we were clearly outnumbered but we were all calm because we had a plan underway that would change the tides of the battle, all we needed was time.“Did you leave anyone alive around here?” I asked trying to sound calm as I glanced at the bodies scattered around.“Oh all this was caused by that old geezer Mr. Greg, all he needed to do to save them was to come out and I wouldn’t hurt anyone, I killed one for every few seconds that passed, and in the end, he didn’t come out until all of them died, such a pity, they would have served as nice henchmen” Ted remarked with a sigh, his behavior shows tha
“I hope that you won’t die as easily as the others, you should provide some excitement” Ted smirked in his humongous form that towered over us like a giant.I stared at the huge figure first, taking in the view in amazement, Ted had transformed into his spider form but among the eight eyes that were on its head, there was only one that was open, the rest were closed for some reason, but I didn’t pay attention to it that much.“Let’s take things slowly, we have to act according to the plan, any slight mistake could result in our deaths” I cautioned the others while grabbing my sword tightly, I crouched gathering strength in my legs, I took in a deep breath and launched forward, my hands swinging downwards in a vertical motion striking onto the hard and thick limbs of my opponent.“Your sword looks nice, when I’m done skinning you alive like the others, I will be sure to add it to my collection” Ted said while deflecting my blade, I didn’t even realize that he was capable of speaking in
