The fish-like monsters appeared out of nowhere busting through the walls pulling their victims into the ocean.
The fish-like creature has hands like humans at it also one of the reasons they can drag the people into the ocean easily.
But unlike the monsters who have many limbs surrounding their body that they saw earlier, this one has only two human-like hands and feet.
Not only it was dangerous there are many of them.
Now five thugs are been pulled into the sea, as they had never be seen again.
They wanted to get away but they can't move the boat because of these creatures as they are now like a fishing duck for them.

As Mike jumps onto the walls of the sinking ship.
He naturally grabs the pipes smoothly like his hands stick well onto the wall.
The way he climbs was like a na
He gritted his teeth tighten his grip on Sena and force his legs to move harder to run through water.But the distance between the fishes is not increasing.Sena covering his blindspot by kicking away the monsters that are lunging towards them but it would not take time for them to land a successful attack.The water reaches Mike's hip in an instant making it impossible to run anymore.(Shit!)Even with that, he manages to reach the end but the only thing he could see at the end is the vast ocean.(No way.)The ship is about to be sunken fully as their time is about to run out.Mike looks from left to right to find another way but there is none.(Don't stop!)He did not stop and look furthermore on his right until he saw the lifeboat where Carlo and others are inboard.
"Ray!"A fish monster pulled Ray into the sea and never seen again.Or so they thought...Mike put a heavy kick to Rin to push him at the side for him to not get grab by the monster.The monster saw its prey flew further away from its range.It showed a disappointed face as its prey got away.However, the monster immediately shifts its target to the one who is near him.*Chomp* Instead of grabbing the prey it bites it for the higher chance to not let its prey go away.The one who is bitten is no one other than Mike who can't react after using his full force kick.Unlike Leo, Mike is not really suitable for short-range combat he prefers fighting from the back that is why he can't react after using a full force kick. He is indeed fast but the fish is faster.He is bitten at his
[Why not lessen your sins?]A voice came from through his head.He somewhat doesn't understand where did it come from but he felt agreeing to the voice, unlike the last time when he resists a little.(I heard you last time but this time it's sure its weird hearing it. Is this what you called inner thoughts? Then if it is, there is something bad inside me like a K*rama trying to control my body. Gargh! I really don't know what's happening anymore!)Mike held his head as he scratching it wildly showing his frustration that he did not know a single thing happening in this situation.(Voice, I don't what you are but if this a situation where it's unavoidable to die at least I could save one life, isn't that what you want to say?) He asks the voice from his head.But it did not reply.(Oy! If your telling me to save someone then tell me how! How could I save someone in this situation that even I don't know if I could save myself!?) He shouted through his thoughts but the voice did not reply
(I wish this could work.)But before he could perform his actions Lucas pushes him to his back feeling the soft texture that sucking him.He knew what it was and surprised that Lucas could see that.As soon they are inside the bubble the two quickly gather their breath haggardly. It shows that they are not used to being in the ocean."*pant* What was that for!? I could save you if you did not stop me!" said Mike as he voiced his complaint to Lucas.Lucas did not listen to his complaint and quickly change the topic in panic; "It's impossible to escape with that pity strength of yours even if there's a gap we will die before we could find it! *pant*""But at least let me try to save you! Are you trying to suffer my soul after I died!?"As he starts an argument Lucas tried to remove the tentacle away from Mike's left leg. Even if they are inside the bubble the tentacle is still attached to him.Lucas brought a knife from his pocket and tried to cut the tentacle but it was futile."Listen,
*Mike's POV*Sinking into a deep, deep ocean. I flustered on what to do after this.As I can't from these fate like shackles I sigh looking high at the beautiful night sky.The dark night and the mist that swifts throughout the ocean limit the sight of any human, I who is underwater can see everything at the surface but in blurry images.Even with blurry sight, I could tell what's happening at the surface.It's only been a second ago since Lucas was devoured and I can't hold my breath any much longer.I panic and tried to look for a bubble but I can't find a single one near me.It's hard to find it because it looks transparent and it's like invisible from afar.Trying to remember Lucas's last words I think that I might fail him.'Mike! Live strong!'If I panic more I might lose focus holding my lungs that are about to explode as it can't handle it anymore.Putting my right hand to my chest where it's near to my lungs I tried to bare it more.I look up at the surface one more time.It w
*Ray POV*Mike saved me from the hands of the monster but he exchanges his life just for my life."Mike!"I shout and shout hoping that my voice reaches the below thinking that he might appear again."I can now sail the boat!"Hearing the shout of the boss's right hand Rin, the boat went into full throttle as the restrain has been removed."Oy! Mike is still there!" I tell that Mike might come back that we should wait for a little longer.But everyone just ignores me.The one who punches Mike into the ocean reply to me with an angry tone."That guy deserved it! He killed our friends! Even if he is alive I will not let him get him here!"Of course, upon hearing what he said I cannot hold myself to hide this anger any longer.I'm not used to hurting others a
*Mike POV*I was sure that I'm at the underwater ocean.But everything I could see is an empty black space, nothing but a void where no could know where they are.I could only look but when I tried to move nothing has changed no matter how many hours I walk.Stumbling into emptiness I thought that this was the afterlife.Trying to look anywhere isn't helping me a bit in this situation so I tried to close my eyes and try to hear anything.However there is no sound that even the sound of silence cannot be heard, I was like inside the muted television when I envision the possibility of where I am.After minutes had passed it was like days of waiting, someone suddenly appeared in front of me.Worm with a giant figure.A creature that similar yet different from another worm I encountered earlier.
*Still on Mike POV*Head!?A rotten hairy head was found inside the trashy chest.Gross... I covered my mouth immediately trying to hold down my vomit.This is disgusting, muggots crawling from the hole of its eye sockets sucking the rotten flesh like jelly.I lost my power from my knees and fallen to the ground while still staring at the chest.This feeling of being scared... I haven't felt this for a while since the ships sinking.Not giving me a break, the rotten head shakes and looks at me with its empty eye sockets.The head gives a loud shout that vibrates the air throughout the cavern.I'm was so terrified that I started to do my usual thoughts of complaints on everything.(If only I fight the thugs head-on at the street instead of running back and Impressing Ray! If on
Feeling his heavy head Mike groans in annoyance.His eyes are tight shut as he lies on something comfortable like fluffy flowers carrying his body.His mood is good as his mouth is grinning like having a peaceful dream.However, this was already ended when the sun's light shines on his closed eyes forcing him to wake up.Having annoyed by the light for a minute Mike wakes up from his slumber as he slowly raises his upper body.Scratching his head he yawns tiredly. Surprisingly this was his first time yawning for a long time.Opening his tight eyes he felt something different in his scenery. For a minute of thought, he remembers that he fell unconscious while talking to the man.Quickly checking his surrounding he notices that he's lying down on a group of leaves. Leaf bed if one would say.He's not in a room nor in a human settlement but in the open forest. Being disappointed for some reason he pouts.(Why the hell that
Mike continues what he is doing.Only moving his hand and arm the man only focus his eyes on what Mike is writing. Words form from one another as the man understood where the words are heading.Luckily Mike managed to encounter someone who has or can understand his language. One would say for years underwater he miraculously lands in his country but one didn't know that there are hundreds of different languages in the Philippines.He only knows the main country's language and international language so if he encounters different people he will surely die through miscommunication.What Mike is using right now is his main language because he heard the man just spoke the main language as he is.Moving on...=Where?= Mike firstly asks where he is.Based on his speculation this place a countryside where nature and humans are living in harmony while utilizing some of the modern techs but sadly even though he can't tell any further than this.
The scattered blood and weird substance united as one and flew towards the man's right eye as it pierces his eyeball as it reaches his brain."Gargh!" The man lost his grip as he quickly holds his right eye.That kind of small attack will pretty much deal a huge blow if one would use it right. And Mike uses that to his chance. Little did we know Mike also felt surprised that it actually works since he's not in the water that he didn't know if the weird substance will actually move.And that is still in testing mode.(But it works so it works! So who cares!?)The man was stunned for a couple of seconds as he deals with his damaged right eye.While the man was distracted, Mike steps his foot onto the ground to stand up as he balances himself leaning to the nearby tree. He suddenly feels dizzy for some reason.(I guess I'm running out of fumes.) thought Mike as he clearly feels his small amount of blood circulating through his body. Too
In the unknown field, countless trees surround the two.Blazes of killing intent surround the man as Mike guards himself towards the threat.Mike readies his stance as he forwards his remaining right weaponized hand. The other hand is broken into pieces as blood drips down soaking the soil in red.Using the big stake like a spear the man takes an action forward as he thrust his stake to Mike's abdomen.(I got no choice do I?!) blurted in compliant by Mike.In his blind vision light appears one after another everything in his surrounding has unique colors that he never has seen before. Looking at the man, his light is different from the others. His color is dark blue as it shines covering his whole side. This is his first time seeing something so bright and bigger than the owner of the light itself.Until now he didn't use his view of the dazzling stars since he can see anything and want his eyes to get used to the surface. One of the reasons
Filling up his stomach with a real deal food Mike felt satisfied for once in years of eating raw fish.Every bite feels worth it. He enjoys every gulp as he teared up from taste.While he's happily shedding some tears, a stake suddenly appeared at his back head.The stake is big as a whole tree log. Not only it's fast, it's faster than Mike had ever seen in his whole life, he can't even foresee what happened.Mike's senses are sharp like eyes are all around his body yet this ambush is something he can't see at all.*PIERCE*The stake pierces through Mike's head only leaving 1/4 of his face attached to his neck. The rest is all splattered gruesomely as his right eye hangs at the splinter of the stake.Blood flows everywhere leaving Mike falling in a thud without life. At his back, there's a man.Tattered clothes and a wounded body as battle scars are all around his body. This is the man who dived to drag a little corpse into the
Waking up he's now at the place where human's settlements could be near... The very surface. The Land!Through his excitement, he yells from the top of his lungs "I'm back, World!"Well, that actually happened but in reality. In the place where he actually is, that is...He's underground.Yelling loud like there's no tomorrow dirt flows into his mouth. Maybe the feeling of excitement or because the last thing he remembers when he passes out is that he's in the surface ocean not underground.One might say that any human in that situation will die because not only they can't move they can't breathe underground. If only it's an average human that is.What we're talking about here is Mike. The one who literally survive in the deepest part of the ocean. Pressure, lack of air, and facing a sudden unknown threat, Mike already face what you would call impossible.Mike lately notices that he's underground and quickly takes an action to get out
"Mike! Kid! Oy!" Imuthis shouts in concern when he sees Mike burning in pain.Numbers of signals keep coming to his head so he knew what Mike is feeling but not to the point he has a sense of pain, he's only ahead anyway.He can't get in nor can see what's actually happening inside because of the strange aura oozing out filling everything on the other side.The only he can do is wait patiently.Contradicting what they thought of this place doesn't give you a sense of pain immediately change after Mike experience the harsh torture of eating an egg and rice.As his body gets peeled off, his skin and hair started to regrow again and started to peel off again, this scene repeated until for an hour.As soon the pain disappears his body stops moving not showing an inch of life from his fragile self. The aura oozing around the place also started to disappear that Imuthis can now look into the other side.But even with that Imuthis still can'
(Come here, little one.) A cold as ice voice spike can be heard directly towards his mind like being pierced by a spike of ice.As a single month had passed since Mike being unconscious, he doesn't have anything much to do.His usual self is back as he got used to the shivering cold that flowing out from his body, even though it been a month there's no slight change from his temperature.Got nothing to do like a lazy child Mike's attention gets drawn to another place from the void.The dark grey part of this void, Imuthis's neighbor.He already forgot this existence or more like he doesn't want to go there. Since the last time he saw this place, this place looks more intimidating than ever like its very aura is oozing out hovering all over the place.Not to mention the size it expanded in such a short time. It's about to reach the size of the current Imuthis's place.Anyway, the dark grey area where the other chest is lying is now vas
(Wake up, little one.) A cold voice rang through his head.Waking up from the sudden cold spike vibrating through his body, Mike wakes up from his deep slumber only to find out that he's in the void where all most of the sense has been dulled.Immediately taken aback from what he felt like the cold shiver blocks all of his reason Mike bare fangs towards Imuthis who just pops out from behind."H-hoy! What's happening to you!?"Forming up a weaponize arms Mike tried to slice the floating up but only ended up falling down to his knees because of the sudden exhaustion. He breaths deeply panting as he tries to calm down his kicking instincts.After a couple of minutes Mike finally cools down but he still holds down his chest as he still trying to suppress the cold shiver coming from his body.He didn't know what's happening everything just started when he woke up from the sudden cold. He doesn't even know he woke from the cold or the cold just st
