In the midst of the desolate wilderness, the group stood, baffled by the sudden cessation of the eerie aura surrounding the stick they held. Scott voiced his concern, "Where is the demon? Why did it stop here in the middle of nowhere?"

Their attention was diverted as a powerful wind gathered, swirling into a tornado that churned up a cloud of dust.

"What on earth is that? What's happening?" James exclaimed, fear evident in his voice. Gradually, the wind subsided, revealing the enigmatic figure of a woman before them.

Clad in a luminous white gown, with cascading locks of hair and skin that seemed to radiate like the sun, she was a mesmerizing sight.

The group braced themselves for a potential confrontation, and Officer Stephen boldly asked, "Who are you?"

The woman's eyes gleamed as she responded, "You can call me the Pathfinder." Intrigued and perplexed, they inquired further.

"You seek to destroy Typhoon, don't you?" she inquired, her laughter echoing eerily, "It's an impossible

    Peter runs as fast as he can while checking the time on his watch; he must not be late. He tightly holds the cigarette pack in his hand. He arrives back at school, jumps through the fences, and peeks to avoid being seen by teachers and other students. He dashes straight to the rooftop, and there they are. "You are one minute late, Peter," Derek says, stepping on his school uniform, which they had taken when he was about to buy cigarettes from them. Peter breathes hard, "There are too many people, so I had to wait." Owen walks closer to him and gives him a hard knock. "What does that concern us? We warned you not to be late, and you were. You have to be punished for it." Peter goes down on his knees, "I am sorry, I'll be faster next time. I'll steal it if I have to." Raymond, the leader of the bullies, stands up from the boy he was sitting on, using him as a chair. He walks closer to Peter, who trembles as Raymond approaches and takes the cigarettes. "Go," Raymond says. Peter

Each student paused, captivated by this enigmatic sight.The narrator's voice resonated once more, filling the air with a tale of ancient lore. "Behold the king, the inaugural werewolf in human history," they proclaimed. "Once a beloved soldier of King Zeus, he commanded immense strength and an expansive army. Yet, in a fateful encounter with Hades, the lord of the underworld, he harbored ambitions of toppling the earthly order. His reckless pursuit almost wrought destruction upon the world itself.

    Peter's eyelids felt heavy, making it a struggle to open them. As he groggily regained consciousness, he noticed a faint beeping sound nearby, indicating that he was in a bed. However, it was clear to him that this was not his familiar home environment. He attempted to lift his hand, only to find it weighed down by an unseen force. With great effort, he tried again to open his eyes, and this time, they fluttered open, though his vision remained blurred and indistinct."Peter," a voice echoed beside him. He turned his gaze toward the source, but all he could discern was the vague outline of a person. Suddenly, a beam of light illuminated his face as someone adjusted a lamp nearby. Gradually, piece by piece, the scene before him began to come into focus.The person who had touched him spoke once more, asking, "Can you see me?"

    The AcheriThe air was bitterly cold, and darkness blanketed the night like the depths of midnight. A part-time worker, eager to return home to the warmth of his wife and young sons, was preparing to leave when the light bulb in the room flickered. He muttered under his breath, "What the hell," while searching for a bench. Despite his desire to ignore the disturbance and hasten his departure, he couldn't resist investigating further.

Irritated, he called out, "We're closed," and resumed his task, completely absorbed in his work. However, his concentration was abruptly shattered when a shadow loomed over him.Attempting to assert authority, he began, "I said we--" but as he turned to face the mysterious presence, a wave of weakness washed over him, rendering him paralyzed.

Sarah scoffed, reminding them, "We're still just teenagers, remember?"Peter and James exchanged shocked glances as Scott let out a heavy exhalation, suggesting, "Maybe we should tell the police." Sensing the futility of such a course of action, James murmured, "You know that's not a possibility." Frustration boiling over, Peter shouted, "Then what other option do we have? Should we follow that cryptic man's instructions?" Sarah intervened, managing to calm Peter down.Meanwhile, at a local bar, Derek and his friend Owen had managed to deceive the staff about their age, granting them entry. Seated in a circl

    As they appeared, they vanished back to the boat. Sandra raised the sword high, calling for the so-called siren to appear from the river."Bring us our friend," she demanded. The demon crawled closer, snarling at their bravery. Sandra scared it off with the sword's radiant light.Scott, preparing to fight, asked,"Where is Peter? We brought the sword as you instructed, now fulfill your promise." Suddenly the river rumbled, and Peter emerged from it, unconscious, dropped into the boat."Now, the sword," the siren demanded, and Sandra handed it over. She let out a hysterical laugh, revealing her demonic teeth. They looked at her with confusion."Why do you think I sent you to bring the sword? You never reasoned it; you will be hunted down one after the other until you get wiped out," the demon said.Kira bravely stepped forward, her sword sparkling."What do you mean?" she asked."The sword's owner forbids anyone from taking it.

    They all step back in astonishment as they see her. She glares at them and shouts, "Human! Despicable human!" They prepare to fight, but Kira intervenes, saying, "She is not here to fight." Sarah questions, "Then what is she here for?" The creature replies, "A test." Flying closer to them, she warns, "None of you shall pass unless you pass my test. Fail it, and you will turn to stone."They exchange glances, and Scott expresses his concerns, "I have a bad feeling about this." Officer Stephen agrees, "I don't think we can answer her question; it's better if we fight her." Kira urges them to reconsider, saying, "Fighting her means suicide. We have to undergo her test." She leans in and whispers, "I have an idea of the questions she might ask, and it's the same question she is well known for asking."They listen to what she has to say and then the creature presents her question, "Which beast has four legs, then two legs, then three legs but has one head?" They look at each other, waiting

    They stood in horror, trying to process the recent events as the sounds ceased. "Where is Peter?" Sandra inquired, though she already knew the answer. They rushed to the boat's edge, scanning the river, but there was no sign of him; he must have sunk. "Can someone please inform me of Peter's whereabouts?" Sandra asked again, struggling to accept the reality."What are those creatures, and where did they take Peter?" James asked. "They are called sirens. They possess the power to lure people with their voices," Kira explained. Overwhelmed by the situation, Sandra exclaimed, "What should we do now? We're unaware of their capabilities!" Scott reassured her, "Please calm down, Sandra. We will find a solution."Ignoring the warnings, Sandra impulsively leaped into the river, and the others quickly pulled her back. "Sandra, what are you thinking? Let's think this through," Sarah urged, holding her firmly. Suddenly, Officer Stephen transformed into a hellhound and discharged all his power in

    The unexpected journey

    The morning began with a refreshing breeze, and Peter felt excited about the day ahead. With no school to attend, Peter was determined to do something extraordinary. So, he decided to go jogging, which was quite out of the ordinary for him. He pushed himself to jog with all his might, thoroughly enjoying the experience. But to his surprise, he somehow ended up in the Hoodman cave."Oh, no, not again," Peter muttered, unsure of what he had stumbled into this time. Much to his amazement, all his friends were there, including the formidable Hellhound. "We just had a tough fight yesterday; I hope we're not here to face another bullshot demon," he uttered, remembering the recent encounter.The Hoodman stepped forward and unleashed what he called the "Typhoon." Confused and intrigued, the hellhound officer couldn't help but asked, "What is that?" Seeking an answer, he turned to the officer who happened to be present. "Officer..." James hesitated momentarily, trying to recall the name. "Step

    they explained to the girls what they had faced. Mike and Owen, unaware of the events from the day before, were also present at the school. Derek smiled at them, but Scott felt an urge to knock the teeth out of him. "Okay, what should we do before the chaos engulfs the whole world?" Kira asked. They couldn't find any solutions at the moment. "Even the Hoodman hasn't found a solution yet," Scott said. In a desperate attempt, they decided to talk to Derek, hoping they could reason with him. "Derek, you need to stop! Your actions are causing chaos in the world," Peter said, trying to reason with him, but Derek just laughed. "You took my powers away, and you think I'll sit idle?" Derek snarled at them. "If you keep doing this, we'll have no choice but to fight you," Peter warned. "Then come on," Derek challenged, rising to his feet and facing Peter. "Let's fight." Although Peter felt tempted to fight, the others managed to hold him back. "Let's meet the Hoodman; there must be a way out o

    On the second day, they arrived at the school, embarking on a serious discussion about the mysterious hellhound, which, according to them, explained Officer's unusually fast healing abilities. The atmosphere seemed harmonious and without any signs of trouble, until Sean unexpectedly double crossed them on their way back home."What happened, Sean? I hope you haven't come here to deal with another misuse of power," Peter inquired with a tone of authority.Nodding solemnly, Sean replied, "Have you noticed Derek's recent behavior?"Perplexed, they exchanged looks, urging Sean to continue. "He's been up to something fishy, something very discreet," Sean continued, causing them to eagerly await further elaboration."And what might that be?" Scott probed, his curiosity piqued."I'm not entirely sure, but Derek's involved in something dangerous. Every night, he sneaks off to the forest to meet someone, and I fear he may be getting into trouble that could lead to his disappearance," Sean divu

    Mike, after minutes of following Derek through the unknown forest, couldn't contain his curiosity any longer. "Where the hell are we going?" he asked.Derek assured him, "We will soon be there."Owen chimed in, seeking more clarity, "To where? Where is 'there'?""Just a little more!" Derek yelled, determined to keep them moving.Feeling hesitant, they refused to go any further. However, Derek demonstrated his supernatural power by effortlessly uprooting a tree with a single arm. Amazement filled the air as Owen couldn't resist asking, "How come you can do that?"With a knowing smile, Derek explained, "It's simple, it's a supernatural power, and you can acquire it too."Their excitement peaked, and they felt motivated to follow Derek again. After a few more minutes of walking, Derek came to a sudden stop. "He is here," he uttered mysteriously.Puzzled and intrigued, they eagerly awaited the arrival of this enigmatic figure. However, when the unknown being finally materialized before th

    Kira abruptly opened her eyes, convinced that she had heard a whisper calling her name. Feeling drowsy, she got out of bed and walked toward the window, where the voice seemed to originate. Despite the darkness of midnight, she couldn't see anyone outside.Thinking she might have misheard, she turned to leave. But then, the voice whispered her name again, echoing throughout the room. Certain she hadn't imagined it, she quickly turned back to the window and saw a figure, obscured by the darkness. She wondered if it could be her friend, so she grabbed her phone and turned on the flashlight. The sight made her scream in terror.*****The day at school proceeded as usual, but Derek's uncharacteristic silence caught everyone's attention. After observing him closely, Peter remarked to James, "Derek seems so calm and collected now. I think what happened last time knocked some sense into him.""Maybe, but who knows what he's plotting? Let's just be cautious," James responded. As the class end
