"Yes. I am going out on a date to a party. This is my first date, so don't bother telling me about the warnings and the danger. I will cross the bridge when I get there." Jason said to his friend before parting ways with Max."I will be coming along with you," Max shouted back to Jason when the other lifted his thumb in acceptance."Hello, family. I am home." Jason shouted as soon as he opened the door. No one answered. He called out to them."Dad. Mom, are you guys home?" he asked, looking around the house. Everything seemed normal. "That's weird. They all work half-day. They should be here by now," he said to himself, going to his room. He dropped the back on the bed and was ready to take a shower when he heard the front door opening, and laughter rang throughout the house."Hello, guys. You freaked me out." Jason said, looking at the beautiful woman and man before him"Come one, son. Can't I take my beautiful woman out on a lunch date?""Sorry, but I just found it very rare not to
"It seems they were here a few hours ago" Jayer squatted down and checked on the prints on the ground. Miriam smelled the soil and nodded at Jayer, showing him leaving. "Let's go left." He said, and Frank looked at him, then at Miriam before nodding. They followed left, and sure that was the right track. The other prints were there to mislead them.They had walked for about three hours before reaching the end where the last track was seen."It ends here," Jayer said, looking at the print. It was the same as the others, but here, there were around four of them."How many do you think there are out there?" Frank asked, looking down. He was the one that trained Jayer, so he knew how well Jayer was versed in numbers and tracking."It should be five," he said, looking at the prints on the ground. It was like he could see invisible footsteps that others could not see."Then let's head to this residential area. Just as they walked a few steps, the hunters at the back were screaming as figur
"Let's go" he shouted as he ran through the backyard"Hey, what's happening?' Mike called on to him, but Jason didn't look back. He knew they would not hurt others but him. They were coming for him."What's happening?" Alicia asked while running along. She was a trained hunter and knew when there was danger. She knew there was one at that moment but didn't know what it was."They are called infernos. Very dangerous," Jason answered, jumping over the fence. He helped Alicia up and ran across the street while hiding. He turned around and could sense them after him. How could infernos be at the party? And there were many of them. What did they want with him? They ran to his house and hid inside the house. The house was fortified with special enchantment in his mother's place. The infernos or supernaturals would not enter. And he would not go out as well unless his mom allowed it."Why are they after you?" Alicia looked at Jason and asked. She was full of doubt. Being a trained hunter,
"Yes. You can date her. If you like her, what's the point of stopping you." Frank looked at his son and said. He had a meaningful smile, making Patrick wonder if the old man was scheming. Jason smiled when the grandpa okayed it. But his parents were not happy. They knew the old man, and he must've been planning something. The way he was looking at Jason was suspicious."Good night, Alicia," Jason said while the hunters walked away"What were you thinking?" Miriam scolded her son," you know that old man is not a good person. He must have planned something to allow you to date his granddaughter. You have to be careful," Miriam said but smiled after thinking for a while. Jason was confused. She was just scolding him a second ago. Why was she smiling?"That was cool. The look on Patrick's face was priceless. You know how to tease the man" Jayer was the man to say this time. "I could feel anger from him. It's like he didn't want me to be close to his daughter," Jason answered while sitti
No one in the room included the woman in a nurse uniform. By the time the police came, it was too late. The bodies were electrocuted. There were no signs of blood or struggle."What really happened here" one of the officers was shocked, looking at the lifeless bodies lying all over."It looks like an electric shock. How much power would cause this incident? It's weird," another officer."Did the cameras catch any of it?""No. It went all out. But a woman in a nurse uniform was last seen coming in here, but no one saw her among the bodies. Also, she didn't go out through the front door" the officer analyzed the situation for the head office."It's really weird. Well, let's get all the bodies away before it's analyzed by the professionals," the head officer said, taking his phone out"Hello. Frank. There is a case you should take a look at?""What is it, chief?' Frank answered on the other side. The guy never called him unless there was a special case"There is a case you should see."
He sniffed two auras coming from the guy. In a moment, his eyes turned green, just like his mother's, and he could see a shadow attacking the doctor. He gasped in shock, taking a step back. Doctor Maxwell as well saw him and was shocked. He could see the guy was a wolf, but he had an aura of a witch. That was new to him unless… he didn't get to continue thinking and stopped. Only one person could have that power. It happens once in a million years."Hello." He composed himself and answered"We are looking for my mom' Mas asked"Are you Mrs. Mapendo's son?" he asked, looking at Max and then at Jason. He hesitated for a moment before he went to them and closed the door behind him."Since you two are friends, then you must know about each other's secrets," He said, looking at Jason to ensure he understood what he was talking about. Jason nodded, and he proceeded."Then you know about supernatural," he said this and took the shiny bowl from his hands. He took it towards Jason, and it lit
"Will she remember killing all those people?" Max asked all of a sudden. The doctor looked at him and then at her body and sighed," She will have a slight memory of it but not as her doing it," he said and disappeared before them."Let's go home" Jason was strongest, so he carried Mrs. Mapendo to where they parked the car. They went home in the back of the car. The woman opened her eyes slightly when they were not looking and smiled sinisterly. When max turned to look at his mom, she had already closed her eyes again."Did you feel that?" Jason asked as he was driving on the abandoned forest road. There were no more cars in the area. Just them and the creepy sounds of the forest. They were surrounded by trees on both sides of the road. He could feel something invading his soul."No. What are you feeling?" Max asked, looking at Jason in confusion. They had been driving hours back home since they found his mom. She was asleep all along but with steady breathing. That put him at ease."I
The flames spread all over his body as he moved closer to Jason. He stopped limping and walked step by step toward Jason. He spread his hands on both sides, the flame emerging from his hands. His whole body turned into blue and red flames. He was consumed in the fire but seemed not to burn."You killed her. I told you not to hurt her," Max shouted strangely. He pointed both hands towards Jason and shouted. A stream of fire flowed towards Jason in full force. He didn't know how to protect himself in the situation. He turned and ran from the path of fire. Still, Max was not giving him a chance to escape. He threw fire after fire at him. Jason tried to call him out of it, but he didn't stop. He was totally crazy. He seemed not to care about anything. Jason was cornered, and e could not run anymore. When fire almost hit him, a green shield appeared out of thin air and shielded him. He looked around, confused, but he could not help but look at his hand. It glowed green.Max continued to th
The two were in their own world and didn't notice the looks threw at them. Soon, there was claps and applause as people shouted in happiness. That brought them back to reality" My friend is getting married" Leo was the first to react to them. He was so happy. You will think he was the one getting married insteadFour weeks passed in a blink of an eye as the two love birds get their vow exchanged in front of the people in the banker. They didn't have to register their marriage the situation didn't allow them to.With the celebration and gathering of the people loved was enough for themLater, they all resumed training. All this weeks, people were being trained by Miriam while she also made spells and protective talisman to help when they needed to escape when in danger. They didn't realize how powerful she was. There was something she was hiding. Worry was eating her up, sooner or later, she will have to reveal the truth to JasonHis powers were be
The one who was shocked the most was Miriam. She used a bit of her power to do a trick she had learned over the years. Camouflaging with the environment disappearing from the view of the enemy. It was a trick that saved her life so many times.What did she saw a shock in her life? She knew too well about some of the creatures. Those were her darkest secrets. But for how long was she going to keep them.Being out of danger for a moment, the group proceeded with their journey back to the shelter. It was hectic when they got back. The people in the room had fought. The reason nobody knew"Prepare tables. Get me the guns with the monkshood powder as well with the blue frame fire source." Miriam was at her wit when they got back.Seeing the people turning into wolves, some of the people were scared and ran to the end of the room. They had never seen a werewolf up-close. Though they knew of their existence, they never interacted, and if they did was a chase and
The group was getting overwhelmed. It was hard to run with the rest of the group incapacitated. Thinking of something, Miriam asked the young girl to let Jason down before performing a few hand seals. A huge light appears and then disappears. From where they stood, there was nobody.They vanished into thin air.The cloud and a few flying creatures appeared where they were in a few minutes, but there was no one. Not even their scent. It was like they never were there in the first place.A distorted voice was heard from behind a group of dark creatures"Where are they?" an old man appeared. He removed the veil over his face exposing his bare face. It was Frank, the Patriarch of the ancient hunter family. He looked like he was dying. His skin had deteriorated, and his face was becoming thorny.What was happening to him nobody knew other than himself"You are all useless. You have the key right under your nose, and you let him go. You have to fi
Then things started going south slowly. As they ran, sharp pains hit them. It began with Alicia trying to run further, but the pain was getting down on her. It was getting too painful to bear with it. Sweat had formed on her forehead. His eyes completely turned blue. She felt electrocuted and almost dropped to the ground. She tried to move, but her body seemed to have been paralyzed. She dropped with a thud alerting Jason and the others."Alicia." He shouted, running back. He let go of the girl's hand and tried to check on Alicia. She was turning. Her eyes were blue and long fangs were coming out. Even her claws were showing. She greeted her teeth in pain, but it was not enough."What's happening?.. What the heck… what's wrong with my daughter" Patrick approached them and asked. The sight before him terrified the whole of his body. In all his imagination, he had seen his daughter as a werewolf."What's happening to her is happening to me as well." Damian
It wasn't long before the group appeared at the front door. Making sure to spray the powder on the door, the group run in a certain direction. Patrick was at the lea with Miriam. They had worked together before. It was easier working synchronizing their movements. The rest of the hunters were behind them while Jason and his group followed suit.The young girl was close to Jason, not giving him space. It was good for safety, but Alicia was getting pissed. She could not understand the feeling. It was stronger over time, more so when Jason held her hand or showed concern for her.It was almost dark, and soon it will be way dangerous to run the street at night, but the group came prepared. Having hunted at night before, it was easier to do the same at the moment. Besides, they had the best night vision gear with them.Running through the streets, not alarming the enemy, the group appeared at the said location an hour later. It was quite a distance. Even if they had
Before Jason talked further with the girl, an announcement came"Listen up, everybody. Report just in. A group of people is stuck in an old building on the west side of town. It's quite a distance from here. We need volunteers to help with the rescue. We need ten people," Patrick announced, looking at the device in his hand.Jason looked at the people and then at the girl. He patted her shoulder, intending to go, when the girl suddenly held his sleeves, not giving him room to react. He was surprised and then confused. She looked scared"I have to go and volunteer. You will be safe here," Jason explained quietly why he was leaving, but the girl was not letting go of the shirt. She shook her head vigorously, but he could not understand."Can I get a piece of paper and pen?" Jason asked around since he could not let himself go. He had to listen to what she was saying. He felt he needed her, and she needed him. The brotherly love kicked in. He had always been
Damian had thoughts about her for years, but then she married Jayer, who unfortunately died weeks back. He could not bring himself to ask her out of bed yet. But he had that in mind. He wanted to do it many times but held back. For now, he had to stop and concentrate on whatever thing was attacking them. He has a long time to proceed with it."Well, we notice that the creatures are distracted but not for long. So we have been using it to cover our scents as we try to evacuate the trapped people in different buildings. But now, almost everyone has been caught in the soulless web. " Evelyn looked at the woman before them and answered she could not deny no matter how many years had passed. She is still as beautiful as ever.Jason stood between the group holding Alicia's hand, when he felt someone approaching him from behind. His senses were ever strong. It was hard for someone to attack him from behind. He turned just in time to see someone extending his arm to pat him on
"We don't have time for this. You, of all people, should know we need to work together now more than ever." Evelyn dragged her husband aside, reasoning with him. They have been through a lot even to get where they were.Patrick signed, thinking of everything."Dad. All these people are nice and good. They have not harmed me even after I killed Jason's father." Alicia approached her father, trying to reason with him. She had not seen him in weeks, and he had lost weight. They must've been through a lot. She looked around. There were hundreds of people in the bunker. Some were from high school. Some were the town people. It must've taken them long to get all those people to one place."It's okay, let them in" Patrick sighed and let his daughter handle everything. Alicia looked around and didn't see the figure she was looking for. "Dad, where is grandpa?" she turned around only to see a sour face. He didn't answer, but she could sense a murderous aura. There was an
"What's happening? What with all those people" Carly asked, peeping at the street before them. Hundreds of people were walking like zombies. Some were standing like a statue with total no movement."I think the town is gone. Everyone is dead." Max said, looking at the people before them. They walked to the street slowly, ready for anything. It was daytime but too quiet to be safe. Miriam held her Katana while the other had different weapons. The werewolves had their claws out in case of anything. Everyone was in battle mode—Ready for anything.The first person they met was an old woman. She was short and wore a woolen hat, a long green crocheted sweater, and an old walking stick still in her hand. She wasn't moving, just stood there looking down.It was Ms. Sally. She has a grocery store just around the corner. She was a nice older woman with no family, just living alone. It was a pity she was a victim of the evil infesting the town. Her face had no expres
