There were a lot of dangers that everyone needed to look out for in a Tier-3 town like Slough. The teenagers were being cautious, yet each one of them was quite confident in their own skills, believing that no matter what they would face today, that they would be able to deal with it.
However, that was limited to their own common sense. A werewolf had naturally not been one of the things any one of them had been prepared to ever see in their life, much less tonight. As such, they had all slightly frozen in fear from the mythological beast that had appeared in front of them. Before they could really react, they witnessed how that large mass of muscle killed a man in front of their very eyes without any effort whatsoever.
Tom immediately became watery eyed, and he could feel something warm soaking his trousers. trickling down his leg.
'Did I just...wet myself...werewolves have a sensitive nose… let's hope this will make me unappetising to eat...'
However, the beast didn't attack them outright, instead it started to dig into the dead person who was on the ground, ripping the corpse to pieces with its sharp teeth.
“Everyone, we need to get out of here now!” Kai instructed and he didn't need to tell them twice. Xin noticed that Tom was still slightly frozen, so she grabbed him, dragging her classmate alongside them. Now that he was no longer looking at the beast, he continued to run with the others.
“What was that? That thing didn't look like any Altered I ever saw!” Innu asked as he ran.
“Who knows, it might be the thing responsible for all those killings on the news!” Marie theorised.
At the moment the group was following Kai. Unfortunately, the park was large with big open fields. The impromptu group leader had a bad feeling that once the beast was done with his meal, that he would follow after them. At this late hour the chances weren't great for them to find someone else in the park that might catch the werewolf's interest.
Another howl resounded and Tom felt a gust pass him, before a blur of fur came out from his side. The blurry black object leapt and slammed into the werewolf's side, sending the two figures toppling through the woods.
Soon, both of them stood up, and the group couldn't believe their eyes.
“There are… two of them!” Xin cried out in despair.
