"We have less than twenty minutes left. Get ready." Joel said while John gave Wilson a pair of silver gauntlets and basic upper body leather armor, which he put on immediately. He simply pulled off his weather-worn shirt and wore the long sleeved leather shirt. It did not look like an armor at all.

"Damn. Dude is more ripped than you." Lee said, looking at muscular, grey haired Kong. Kong looked away, choosing to act as if he heard and saw nothing.

John looked at Wilson and nodded. It was just as he thought. He and Wilson were using the exact same size. He looked at Wilson's shoes and immediately shook his head. Seems like escaping from a Snow Tiger really smokes one's shoes. He could not help but wonder how the shoes were still even able to cover his feet. Shouldn't they have fallen apart?

He activated his space ring and brought out a pair of knee high shoes whose colors made it look like they were made of heavy metal. He extended the shoes to Wilson.

"Here, take this!"

Wilson looked

    "Song, estimated time?" King asked, whipping his head in Song's direction."t minus three minutes." Song answered."Alright. Everyone, listen up! Wolf leaders are prolly the most dangerous leaders because of their innately strong sense of....well, brethrenhood.." Kong started, his awkwardness when he said 'brethrenhood' made Lee chuckle. He continued."The late Great Jerry Chan's research states that they usually have telepathic or psychic powers. Or both. I can see thirty or so auras but they could very well be actually more or less, if there happens to be a clone ability there. There are snakes and birds but there are mostly quadrupedal beasts in their midst. Them having a wolf as their leader ensures that their ability to cooperate will be way higher than ours. So, the main goal right now is less about resistance and more about survival. We stick together and protect one another. No one goes farther than one and a half meters from the nearest person. One more thing, no matter what,

    A blurry shadow whooshed past them and a bloodcurdlng, soul-wrenching noise rang out behind them before their brains could even begin to register what happened.The noise made them to look backwards but all they saw was a blurry image and when it was gone, all the people in that small area farther from the crowd than others, who amounted to at least seven people, were nowhere to be seen. They were gone, clothes and all. Nothing was left, not even the slightest drop of blood and the only thing that told Jim, Wilson, the teenager, his sister, father and grandfather that there was more to it than met the eye was the huge pawprints that were now on the broken tar road.The teenager boy was shaken beyond words and like every other normal person, his legs turned around and began to move in the opposite direction."Matt, stop!" The old man managed to gain his bearings in time and grabbed his grandson by the arm to prevent him from running away.Jim looked around and saw that the over hundred

    Wilson's fist hit the gorilla's huge palm. A shockwave swept out from the impact, waking Jim from his daze.'What the hell was I thinking?' Jim immediately thought. How could he have so willing to die? He was still too young and even a virgin to boot. He had such a beautiful life ahead of him, why would he want to die in some nameless wilderness?He quickly retreated, increasing the distance between himself and Wilson. He looked around and perhaps because he was still a little too calm for someone who could die anytime, he noticed that most other one eyed beasts including the other monkeys, chimpanzees and a snow white baboon, avoided a certain range around the gorilla. He pulled the family away from the fight and stopped a little distance from the edge of that range. He looked at the monkey on the gorilla's shoulder that gripped tightly to the gorilla's fur and a thought came to mind.'What are the chances that the monkey had something to do with my willingness to accept death so eas

    There was no suspense, Lane was eaten alive, half cooked by the flames from the hyenas.Wilson took another hit to he chest. The gorilla stepped forward and a raised a mighty foot. Its intentions were obvious. He was going to stomp Wilson's upper body to a mushy mess. Wilson willed the pain and exhaustion away and forcefully opened his eyes. This was not the time to feel sleepy. This is probably that little thing's doing.He opened his eyes and instantly noticed the skies above him was covered. 'What is that? A foot? Oh no!'Wilson rolled out of the way as quickly as he could.*Boom*The ground seemingly exploded when the gorilla's foot made contact with it. Water splashed on Wilson just as he was standing up. And then he froze. Unable to move. He saw the gorilla's huge palms coming for him from opposite directions.Is this the end? No. Why? Because the palms suddenly paused. They paused so abruptly, Wilson felt like time had stopped. Wait, did time really stop?The wolf leader leape

    Jim, the old man and his family finally stopped running. They were panting and were too exhausted to go on. The old man wheezed and gasped as he fell face first on the snow with his butt slightly raised. He looked like he was a mouse that was being sent to the knackers. Jim stifled his urge to laugh and instead looked away."You know, you should not have abandoned your friend, right?" The middle aged man asked as he sat on the cold, hard snow. He, like the rest of his family was wasted both physically and mentally."Who? Wilson? Nah, he is not my friend." Jim was quick to deny it. He continued."He is an...um... acquaintance. An acquaintance born out of convenience and necessity. That's all.""Really? You guys seemed close. Like long time friends kind of close, you know." The little girl said."No, we are not. I already told you guys how we met, didn't I?" Jim said."Oh yeah, yeah, you did." The little girl's elder brother, Matt, was the one to answer. He paused, then continued; "You

    "He said that, there were over twenty one-eyed beasts, among which he could sense the residual aura of strength-related ones, fire and acid. He said there might be speed related ones as well from certain signs in the distance. Of course, there were no actual visible prints so, I'm guessing what he saw has something to do with his ability.Anyway, back to what he said. He said that there was also certain signs of mental waves or something like that. I don't remember his exact words. But he also said something else...." She paused for effect."Come on, don't keep us in suspense." Bar pleaded."There was a travelling bag and that he could sense very strong residual ice ability aura from it. He said the beast was most likely already dead and because someone was stingy or careless enough to store it in a travelling bag, that must be why the aura leaked and invited the one-eyed beasts to the large group of travellers." The lady mercenary said and everyone sighed and shook their heads."So,

    The soldier and Wilson entered the tent and walked directly into a small City. There were people around, food stalls, public toilets, entertainment houses and adminstrative offices, all tagged accordingly for easy identification."This is Tent City 201. If you want to know more, join the military. Follow closely." The solder said and entered a small building that was the only one without a tag, save for a warning that says 'Keep out!' Apparently, the person was too busy to make a more explanatory warning and so just pasted a generic keep out sign on the door.The door sign said 'keep out!' but the soldier entered and left the door open for Wilson, who entered without much thought.The place seemed desolate and as they walked further inside, their footsteps echoed as they stepped on the concrete floor.Later, after making several turns and entering through a couple doors, they finally arrived before a door that looked very different from all the other wood colored doo

    When Wilson woke up the next day, it was,precisely speaking, not even the next day. He had slept for two straight days and when he finally woke up, he felt refreshed. His body felt somewhat new. It was lighter than he remembered, his sense of sight and hearing was more sensitive and his mind was clear.He tried to figure out why and came to the conclusion that the reason was because he has been on edge for quite some time and it had been so long since he could relax completely.He remained in bed and thought about his adventure of the past couple weeks or months, rather. Maybe even he should be thinking in terms of years. At this point, he could not even be sure anymore.He looked around at the room's interior. The room was coloured in a blend of white and red. A lamp rested on a desk by his side, an an extension of the bed itself. There was a small wardrobe at the other corner of the room and a bathroom door only a few steps away by its side. The lighting was soft and gentle to the e

    Colt woke up and sat up."What.... I'm awake, ain't I?" He asked himself. He was sure he was awake. Were his eyes still closed? Or why was everywhere still black? He tried to open his eyes for several minutes. "My eyes!" He jumped to his feet. Or at least tried. As soon as he moved , he hit his head hard against something. He raised his hand to touch. It felt like concrete."Div? Platoon! China? Hey! What the f*ck are you trying to pull?" He yelled. His voice echoed back to him. He touched his eyes. They were open. Why was everywhere still dark?He panicked."Hello! Anyone? Where am I? Dad? China, I bet that is you. Come on, we can talk about this. The bomb thing was just a joke. I wouldn't actually try to blow up my friend." He tried to persuade. He crawled forward as he spoke."Chan!" He changed tactics and yelled. "I'm talking to you. Answer me. Chan! Chan!"**************Wilson woke up, feeling groggy. Like most other times, it took him some ti

  • Born To Fight   Chapter 142 - Colt's Attack.

    Wilson weaved through the thin blades of ice, like a veteran surfer through the water waves. He stretched his hand like before to grab the furious twin by the head just like he did with his brother. He had developed a liking for grabbing his opponents by the face. His fingers were only centimeters away from securing a firm grip when suddenly he felt a change in the air pressure, or was it temperature, behind him. It was hard to explain if he tried. All he knew was someone was now there. He abruptly pulled his hand back, ducked his head and awkwardly rolled to the side as quickly as he could, barely escaping a fatal knife stab to his jugular."Tsk!" It was Colt who clicked his tongue and retreated. He left Wilson and went straight for Fawn who was by now, utterly exhausted from fighting two people at once. She was bleeding from her arms and thighs and various other cuts to her torso. Her clothes were in tatters. Wilson glanced at Dash and was surprised to see him holding out bett

    "Sh*t! Zek is dead!" A voice spoke from within the smoke. It sounded muffled as if something was blocking the free passage of sound."F*ck! They discovered us. Rush in and kill them. The girl is mine." A female voice ordered from within the smoke. The third sentence made Fawn chuckle. That was Diva alright.Few seconds later, the swirling smoke of poison rippled."F*ck! Wind dude already joined them.""Just jump through, you idiot." The lady ordered again.Wilson did not wait for them to approach though. The team was still outnumbered, so in a bid to try and even the playing field before it could devolve into total chaos, he stepped forward and grabbed an idiot and forcefully pulled him in before the victim could react. Jim instantly three wind blades at him while Dash dashed towards him and stabbed him as quickly and in as many vital points as possible. The victim was dead before he could even make an impact."Minus two!" Wilson called out."Remainder se

    China yelled in frustration as he once again ran straight towards Jim. He had tried to send his near invisible poison towards Jim and the team over and over again but this dastardly Jim, who looked like a mock version of a businessman and never stopped talking, somehow managed to stop the spread of the poison. And what's more, he could not catch up to him either because he was way too fast for him, constantly waiting for him to close half the distance between them before boosting himself with his wind ability and running to the farthest corner again.As China neared Jim once more, Jim leaned slightly forward. His suit jacket fluttered a little. A sure sign of him harnessing his ability once again.China felt the slight sting at the back of his neck increase till his head started buzzing. A warning sign from Colt. As soon as he saw Jim blur out of sight, he immediately sprayed out his poison out of every pore of his body. A thick cloud of smoke instantly filled a meter radius

  • Born To Fight   Chapter 139 - Jim versus China.

    Noise abound at the Boneyard Arena in Bones Street in Tiger City, as the crowd of spectators cheered. Several teams had already duelled it out since morning and it was not only at this arena but in every other properly accounted for arena in Bones Street, Brawl Street, the seven Major Streets and even Horr's underground wrestling platforms.Never before had the officials of Tiger City paid attention to the wrestling competitions but now that they were planning to join in, they were more than willing to make their first intra city competition as memorable as possible. The competition hadn't even started properly, as that will only begin after the top 64 had been selected and broadcasted to the entire city. Even then, the preliminaries was already bumbling. Every body - individuals, gangs, organisations and even military schools - who dreamt of fame, recognition, money or just wanted to improve their skills, gathered a team of five at minimum and registered to take part in it.

    "Wilson! Wilson! Wilson, can you hear me?" Danny called. Wilson turned his head to look at him.Everyone thought he had a good reason for pulling attention towards him. They should have known better."You stink! Can you tone it down?"Dash and Gene Chang immediately scurried away from his side. This idiot seemed to like playing with death. It was best to stay away to avoid collateral damage. But Wilson did not attack. Instead, thin red smoke-like fumes, that Charlie, the instructor and Gene Chang had noticed emanating from him, reduced."Wilson." Charlie called. "Can you control it? You simply have to continue your thought process but slowly push it towards the direction you want it to go."Wilson nodded. For about a minute, nothing happened. Dash opened his mouth and spoke in a whisper, not wanting to break Wilson's thought process."He's taking longer than expected.""Yeah! It's not unexpected. High quality means high requirements." The instructor said.

    Wilson was short of words for a long time after his mother completed the story. He quietly hugged her. Everything she had done, no matter how selfish, she had done to protect him and cure him from the curse."Thank you mom. You are the best mom I could ever ask for."Silvia smiled and sniffled. Charlie glanced at them from his lying position on the grass and sighed. They were still not done. Come on. They were only separated for about a year or so. What was there to catch up on for so long.'They are hugging again.' He grumbled under his breath. 'I should download some offline games in case of another time. Uh! I'm so bored. Finish up, man.'He dared not say it out loud though. He was not stupid. A woman who had access to spatial magi-tech and could exonerate his father's name from the long list of deceased traitors was definitely not simple. She even had connections in Tiger City itself. He wasn't stupid enough to test her patience after a long awaited reunion

    Before Wolfe died, he had an illicit affair with his childhood sweetheart, Charlotte. While Wolfe was legally married and in love, it was all for the public's eyes. After all, he was a public figure and he cared a lot about how people viewed him. Maybe a little too much. If he hadn't, he probably would have married Charlotte instead.Charlotte was heavily pregnant when Wolfe jumped into the those outer worlders' ship. The knowledge made Wolfe's real wife, Monica feel betrayed. The invasion and resistance continued for a while and after some time, Monica and Charlotte met in a makeshift underground bunker while escaping for their lives. They got into a stupid fight with each other and insulted and cursed at each other. But Monica was quickly overwhelmed, she burst into tears and in a fit of rage and frustration, grabbed the bare soil beneath her and glared at Charlotte."Wolfe deceived me. He used me to boost his career. And while I suffered every night, he spent them in bed

  • Born To Fight   Chapter 135 - Silvia's Story Part 2

    "Some couple centuries or back, before the first invasion, your great great grandfather, I think it's two greats, was a well known modified fighter. He had the strength and grit. He was very popular for his sportsmanship and showmanship. When the aliens first struck earth, he was in the middle of the biggest fight of his career against a fellow fighter named Boxer. Boxer is the ancestor of the royal family. Grandpa Wolfe was the first person to deal a fatal blow to the alien ship. Of course, that's not what the history books say. Apparently, to further bolster their image in the eyes of the citizens of the kingdom, the historical records were altered, but the royal family and certain important families know the truth. That's why Tiger City was given its independence in the first place. As a tribute to our ancestor and to maintain a good relationship with us."Wilson blinked. He understood most of that. As usual, his observant mom noticed."We will go into details about that
