Scott remarked, "What did you just say? You will the world as a battlefield? You've got to be kidding me. Is all of this the result?"The monster growled from under the cloak, and his red eyes lit up as Derek spat, "What about you? What have you done? Just appearing here and there with your old damn stick."Peter stepped in and said, "Let's keep things calm, okay? And could you please be a little more gentle with the language you use?"Sandra, who was unaware of what was happening, was just watching them when her phone rang. It was her mother, and she excused herself to answer the call. Her mother's voice could be clearly heard while they were conversing, yelling and nagging. When she hung up and turned around, they continued to look at her with suspicion.She said less enthusiastically, "My mom called me to inform that there is a jailbreak in town, and animals are running wild," but to others, it's something more, something big that can jeopardize the town."What animal?" Sarah inqui
The clash between the hooded man and the monstrous figure intensified, as their claws clashed and their bodies contorted in an intricate dance of combat. Each blow landed with bone-shattering force, creating shockwaves that reverberated through the battleground. As they fought, the hooded man's cloak billowed around him, revealing glimpses of intricate tattoos etched across his body. The monstrous figure, on the other hand, had a menacing aura surrounding him, emanating raw power and darkness. Their battle echoed with a mix of guttural roars and grunts. Sparks flew as their claws clashed, creating a symphony of fury. The ground beneath them cracked and split from the sheer force of their attacks. Meanwhile, Scott and Derek continued their own battles against the horde of monsters. Scott, with his newfound powers, unleashed bolts of lightning that crackled through the air, striking down any creature that dared to challenge him. He moved
He ignored the unsettling sound and continued on his way, but abruptly stopped again upon hearing the rustling of broken trees. He paused, looking around, but there was no one in sight. Despite feeling certain that he was alone, he couldn't ignore the growing sense of unease. Suddenly, a low growl emanated from behind him. As he turned around, a scream escaped his lips. ***** Peter entered the classroom, as late as ever. The class was its usual noisy self, but today the noise seemed amplified, with everyone engrossed in their own conversations. "Did you sleep well?" James whined, fully aware that a restful sleep was unlikely after battling a horde of demons. "Yeah, I had pleasant dreams," Peter whined back, questioning the reason behind their incessant chatter. "We have newcomers," James informed him. "And is that really something worth gossiping about?" Peter retorted. "They're triplets," Sandra chimed in, sitting in front of them. "Triplets?" Peter rhetorically asked, curiosity p
Cerberus, the formidable multi-headed dog that stands guard at the gate of the underworld, is often regarded as the faithful hound of Hades, serving as his loyal pet," the hooded figure shared, his voice tinged with a mysterious air. The students, including Derek, were all present, their faces etched with a mixture of curiosity and trepidation. Scott, his voice filled with anguish, couldn't help but ask the burning question that plagued his mind, "So, they were the ones responsible for the attack on my father?"The air grew heavy with anticipation as silence settled upon the group. Sarah, her voice laced with determination, spoke up, her eyes fixed on the hooded figure. "If that's the case, how do we go about defeating them?" Her question hung in the air, each person in the room waiting for an answer.The hooded figure paused for a moment, seemingly collecting his thoughts before responding. "Not just anyone can take on such a formidable task, my young friends. The power required to o
The friends emerged from the cave, their hearts filled with determination and hope. They faced the approaching threat head-on, ready to fight for their lives. The night air crackled with tension as they squared off against the monstrous three-headed demon.Peter clenched his fists, his voice filled with resolve. "We won't let you destroy everything we hold dear! Prepare to face our united strength!"The demon responded with a bone-chilling growl, its eyes gleaming with malice. It lunged forward, claws slashing through the air, intent on tearing them apart.Scott summoned bolts of lightning, desperately trying to strike the demon's vulnerable spots. But the creature's supernatural resistance rendered his efforts futile. Scott gritted his teeth, frustration etched on his face.Derek in his full wolf form set in to kill it, he bolted at them but with just it one paw, he flew away hitting his back hard on the tree.Sarah darted and weaved, her movements graceful yet purposeful. She attack
Before you read this chapter, let me tell you something. When the night covers the day and everywhere is dark, turn off all the lights. Let the darkness dominate, and only the creeping in of the full moon. Then, light a candle and place it in front of a mirror. Say these words three times: "Bloody Mary." Prepare yourself for what you may see, but don't attempt it, as that's what Annie did the night she disappeared. **** Today is Saturday, so there is no school. Peter stretches himself out of bed. The morning sun illuminates the room. The events of last night replay in his head—what a long night. Just then, his phone rings and it's Sandra."Hello, good morning," Peter greets."Morning, are you free this morning?" Sandra asks."Huh, yeah," he replies."Let's go out for a date then," she suggests. Peter, the happiest being on Earth right now, eagerly replies, "Oh yeah, yeah!" He quickly got ready, making sure to wear his best clothes and splash on some extra cologne. As a clumsy pers
They both explained what the woman had told them. "It's exactly how it is in history," Kira said. "She claimed to grant their wishes and do the opposite." James, curious and knowledgeable about the tale, asked, "You seem to know a lot about this. Is there a way to fight this girl in the mirror?" Kira nodded, her expression serious. "It's simple. We have to perform a ritual and we need a mirror." Scott interjected, puzzled. "But how are we going to do that?" Kira reassured them, "I will provide some supernatural items. At night, we will place the mirror directly under the moonlight and chant her name. When she appears, we strike and kill her." The group nodded, understanding the plan. However, Kira warned them of an important detail. "But here's the problem: no one should see her face." Perplexed, they exchanged puzzled glances. "So how are we going to kill her?" Peter asked. Kira admitted, "I don't know. I said it was simple, but I don't have the answer." Sarah reminded her, "
The supreme demon sits atop his lofty throne, while his messenger stands solemnly before him, burdened by the failure of his assigned mission. The tasks bestowed upon him had been thwarted by a mere group of children. "They possess greater strength than we anticipated," he finally admits. Upon hearing this, an overwhelming rage consumes the demon, prompting him to rise from his seat and fix his intense gaze upon the messenger. The gaze alone paralyzes him, conveying the weighty implications behind it. "I... I will carry out your command, sir," he stammers, despite the demon's unspoken words resonating loudly through the silence. The messenger hastily departs, realizing that the time has come to summon the demon.As the final bell rings, the teacher exits the classroom, and the students pack up their belongings. Peter, who had been observing the newcomer Derek had attacked, periodically stole glances at him and his friend. Could Peter possibly be aware of their true nature? It seemed i
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
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. It has the power of invisibility, and anyone who takes i
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 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
