Chapter 11

It was late at night as we see Rick sitting on a box, while Adriana cuddled behind him with her arms around his shoulders. Rick was sharpening his sword, while there were others there. They were in a large warehouse as there was modified monsters moving boxes, machines and other objects around.

"Just watching them makes me tired." Said Adriana.

"Just be glad the good old doctor isn't making you move everything." Said Rick as a man in a long white coat approached them.

"Please, even with her magical abilities. Nothing would get done." Said the doctor as he was smoking a cigarette.

"Frankenstein, could not smoke that crap in here?" Said Adriana as she fanned away the smoke.

"If you don't like it, step outside." Said Dr. Frankenstein as he blew more smoke at her.

"Don't make me kill you." Said Adriana casually.

"Anyway, where are the others?" Rick asked.

"On their missions. But they should be back soon to help out. So it's just us." Said Dr. Frankenstein.

"Just us. Why don't you scram, while me and Rick can have some fun by ourselves." Said Adriana close to Rick's ear.

"Typical hormonal girl, can't control her urges in her nether regions." Said Dr. Frankenstein.

Adriana was about to point her wand at him, but Rick lowered it as he chuckled.

"As fun as that sounds, Adriana. We have to be professional about this. But maybe later. And Doc, try to be more tolerable with her. We are supposed to be a team." Said Rick as he stood up.

"At least one of you is reasonable. But very well. And how was your confrontation with your brother?" Dr. Frankenstein asked.

"Fun, until he still showed that he cares about me. But he's gotten better. And he's team's not that bad either. But they lack power." Said Rick.

"Hmm, interesting. I can't wait to meet them. I have some…creations I'd like to test on them." Said Frankenstein.

Frankenstein had some of his modified monsters push giant contains to him. Inside were giant modified monsters as Adriana was disgusted, while Richard looked at them with intrigue.

"If they are good as you say, I think they'll be great test subjects for my creations. I can't wait to test them." Said Frankenstein.

"I'm actually tempted to see what they can do. But have orders. Speaking of which, where's Tiffany? She should've been back on her mission." Said Richard.

"Ah, you know her. She was getting impatient of waiting." Said Dr. Frankenstein.

"Well, great. She went to go find him, huh?" Richard responded.

"Shall we retrieve her? She might draw too much attention?" Adriana.

"Nah, let her be. I rather have her go mad now than later." Said Richard.

Elsewhere in the city, a woman in her early twenties was perched on the ledge of a building. She had a hood over her head that cover her face, but she had a twisted smile on her face as she giggled maniacally.

"Soon, little ghost. Soon…" Said the woman.

It would be the next morning in a forest as everything was quiet. Until we see a giant dire wolf running through the forest as Garry, Iris and Isaac were chasing after them. Garry was running on foot as he took on a slim form that made him run fast, Iris was riding on an Egyptian griffon and Isaac was on a dirt bike version of his motorcycle with a tranquilizer gun in hand. He fired and hit the wolf with a dart as it didn't slow it down. We see that it had been hit by multiple darts as it kept on running with no signs of slowing down.

"Damn, it's still moving." Said Isaac.

"Holy crap, how many darts is this wolf going to take?" Garry asked.

"This wolf isn't from our world. It's from Jotunheim. It's going to need a different kind of dose." Said Isaac.

"So, what now? Because I'm starting to get tired of chasing it." Said Garry.

"Iris, can you restrain it with your sand or bandages?" Isaac asked.

"Mm-hmm." Iris nodded

"Garry help her. It's going to take me a few minutes for me to make a new dose." Said Isaac as he slowed down his dirt bike.

"You got it. Let's go, Iris!" Garry responded.

"Right." Iris replied.

Garry he then held his arm back and hurled his arm forward as it stretched far. His hand then grabbed onto the wolf's fur as it felt him grab on. Garry then jumped and flew over on top of the wolf as it stopped and tried shaking him off. He looked like he was riding a bull as he was hold as best as he could,

"Iris! A little help!" Garry shouted.

Iris flew low to the ground on the griffon's back as she jumped off and opened her sand jar. The sand flew to the wolf's feet as it trapped it's legs. Iris then held her right hand out as her bandages wrapped themselves around the wolf's body.

"Grab it!" Iris shouted.

Garry grabbed onto the bandage as he jumped off and pulled on them, restraining the wolf's as Iris stood on the opposite side where Garry was.

"Nice. I guess we wait for, Isaac. I hope he hurries." Said Garry.

The wolf then started moving again, but they both tightened their grip on the bandages.

"Easy, big guy. Oh, wait. It's girl." Said Garry as he looked down at the wolf's underside.

"Huh." Iris responded, surprised as well.

We see Isaac finishing up a new dose of tranquilizer on his motorcycle's back compartment as he had a hologram of Scarlet talking to him.

"Alright. You sure this will work?" Isaac asked.

"Have I ever stirred you wrong?" Scarlet asked.

"You got me there." Said Isaac.

Isaac then quickly reloaded the dart and them aimed his gun, while walking to get a good shot of the wolf. He was far away as there were trees in front of him. But then fired as the dart passed by the trees and hit the wolf on the side as it yelped. The wolf started to move as Iris and Garry kept their grip, until the wolf slowly passed out.

"Thanks, Scar." Said Isaac.

"Any time." Scarlet replied as the hologram turned off.

"Nice shot! Now, you won't be killing any more livestock around here." Said Garry as he poked the wolf's side.

"This things must have been hungry. Killing multiple chicken, pigs, cows from different farms in a week. I know it's a giant wolf. But shouldn't one cow have been enough for it?" Isaac asked.

Iris approached the wolf and placed her right hand on its side. She then gently moved her hand to her right as she could sense something.

"It was pregnant." Said Iris.

"What? Was it trying to feed her pups?" Said Garry.

"Can you sniff them out?" Isaac asked.

It would be moments later as they arrived at a large cave. Isaac had his tranquilizer gun in his hand as Garry and Iris walked in front of him. They then heard a growl from a wolf pup that was the size of regular dog. It was the oldest of the litter as the others looked afraid, while huddled together as the eldest protected them.

"Hey, buddy, easy. We're not here to hurt you." Said Garry.

But the pup attacked Garry as it was biting him, while Garry had his scales covering his body to protect himself.

"No! Bad pup! AAAAAH" Garry shouted as Iris approached the pup.

"Easy, we mean no harm." Said Iris as she placed her hand on the pups head.

The pup then calmed down as it took a liking to Iris, while it wagged its tail. Garry sat up, until the other pups playfully attacked him and were chewing on him.

"I think they like you." Iris giggled.

"You're tell me. It's a good thing that you're great with animals." Garry replied.

"This is one of many cases of other species of another realm entering our world. Someone is opening portals from Yggdrasil and letting these animals into our world. I wonder if they're linked to this?" Isaac asked himself in his mind.
