The Beginning ~ part 03 ~

Hannah's claws dug into the werewolf's face, ripping it's cheeks. Danny quickly jumped sideways as she covered him. The superhuman force of Hannah's sent the werewolf flying into a pine tree. 

But the werewolf was an elite rank. There was no way he could be killed by a level 12 player. The elite rankers were the ones who reached level 40 - 75. 

The werewolf quickly pushed himself up and the ripped skin of his cheeks pulled together and the wounds healed in an instant. 

"You cannot kill me, little girl! But I would like to see you try?" growled the werewolf at Hannah. "I know.. But I can try, can't I?" said the girl with a witty smile. 

*ZHONGG* 

A bolt of lightning struck the werewolf as Conor casted a spell by his staff. 

*Rawrrrr*

The wolf screeched in intense pain. Conor was standing some meters away, because he was going for a ranged attack.

 "If we attacked together, we may have a chance of defeating this motherfucking creature!" Conor thought holding his staff up to cast another spell at the werewolf. 

Conor's eyes lit up with a purple fire, as the tip of the staff started to produce a purple lightning. But before Conor pulled the staff down to cast the spell, the werewolf was in front of him.

The werewolf dashed at an immense speed and got hold of the staff. The werewolf quickly pulled its claw back and tried to pierce Conor. 

But before quickly ducked to dodge the deadly attack. "Fucking hell!! He's faster than light!," Conor was scared to death. One of the attacks from those claws may deal fatal damage to him.

Danny holding the large sword quickly charged at the beast just as he got up. The sword started to burst out a black flame. 

*AGHHHHH!!!*

Danny gashed the werewolf once again from the back and made another cut in it's back. The wolf gave out another shriek and furiously spun around trying once again to pierce Danny with its claw.

This time, Danny quickly counter attacked the beast and one of the beast's fingers got slashed off. 

[ Mana : 30/100 ]

The mana used by Danny was too much. Danny only had a few units to spend and he would be done for. But the anger of the boy told him not to stop until he reached the werewolf's head. 

The power of regeneration of the werewolf was unbelievable. But even that wasn't enough for regenerating the finger that fast. 

The werewolf was bleeding. Most werewolves travelled in packs but this one was alone. Even though it was an elite rank, it was hard to defeat Conor, Danny and Hannah together. 

"Why isn't this thing fighting back?" Hannah thought as she charged at the wolf again. The werewolf was an elite ranker, but it didn't show as much as an elite rank. 

Suddenly Hannah's claws lit up with a red fire and she started to scratch the beast furiously. Blood splat all over as the beast chest took a number of scratches from Hannah. 

Suddenly the werewolf tried to take hold of Hannah's neck, but she dashed back to avoid it. The scratches weren't doing any fatal damage to the werewolf. 

As Hannah attacked the beast, Conor tried to cast another spell on it. But it was too late. The eyes of the werewolf suddenly lit up with a yellow fire and the aura coming from the wolf got more and more powerful.

Suddenly the wolf charged at Danny with an immense speed and the claw of the wolf pierced Danny's chest and pushed him with his chest against the claw. The werewolf pinned Danny against the bark of a tree. 

[ HP : 19/100 ]

Danny started to spit blood out of his mouth, as the claws of the beast dug deeper into his chest.

[ HP : 10/100 ]

Suddenly Hannah dashed to the beast and smashed the beast's head with her long nailed claw. 

The nails dug into the skull of the werewolf. "RAWRRRRR!!! You BITCH!!!" screamed the werewolf as Hannah smashed it's head. The beast quickly got hold of Hannah's head and flipped her off into another tree about 5 metres away.

[ HP : 280/300 ]

Hannah's health decreased as Hannah hit the tree. Danny, who was pinned against the tree bark, was now lying on the ground unconscious. 

When a player reaches his or her health unit to 10, they get unconscious until a few more units are healed. 

Conor, who was shocked by the beast's attack, was now stuck in two decisions. To save his life and run or help his friend who was now dying. It wouldn't be possible for Conor to find such a person with a rarity such as the Hunter's system.

Conor quickly got his staff back, to charge at the beast. A staff was capable of both ranged and melee attacks. 

[ Mana : 40/100 ]

Lightning ran through the staff as he charged the staff with mana. Conor quickly tried to hit the beast targeting it's head. But the beast ducked and doged the blow. 

Suddenly, Conor changed his pace and quickly hit the beast sideways. The staff hammered the werewolf, as an immense electric shock ran through the werewolf's body. 

The force of the magical staff sent the beast flying into a branch of a pine tree and it smashed into a strong branch. The branch ripped through it's upper chest appearing through the other side. 

*RWARRRRRRRR!!!!!!!!* 

The cry of pain was now louder than ever. It echoed throughout the forest and the sound was ear bleeding. 

Suddenly they heard the sound of the police cars nearby. Since all the systems were hidden from society, there was no chance that they would be able to escape the police. 

"Conor, we have to go!! Let's leave!! The police!!" yelled Hannah as she ran to Danny to cover him from the werewolf. The beast was stuck into the branch of the tree, with the branch sticking out of it's chest. 

"The police must have heard the screams of this shit!! There's no possible way that they couldn't!!" thought Conor was looking at Danny, who was completely out cold. 

"Conor!! We need to go!! Hurry!!" screamed the girl again, who was trying to carry Danny up. "Wake up Danny! Wake up!!"

The beast who was stuck in the branch suddenly fell down, with the branch still lodged into its chest. The werewolf quickly got up and removed the branch, spitting out more and more blood as it did. 

"QUICK! SEARCH!! I HEARD FROM THIS DIRECTION!" 

A few people shouted inside the woods. It was the police!

If the players don't hurry, they might get shot or hunted by the police. Conor heard this and he was frightened to death. Even though they had the power, if they were hunted down by the police, all their normal lives will be ruined. 

Conor quickly ran to Danny and Hannah. He was almost out of mana. If all of them were out of mana, they would be helpless. 

"Quickly hold my hand and Danny's!" said Conor to Hannah, summoning his spell book. He opened the book and got hold of Hannah's hand. 

"TELEPORT!!!"

Conor casted the spell and a huge spark of light came from the book. Suddenly, all three of them disappeared. 

The police were getting closer and closer. Gordon, the werewolf who was fighting Danny and the others, was trying to get back up to his feet. But he was feeling dizzy. He had just been beaten up by a group of minor players.

"Something's there!!! Check it!!" 

The police yelled as they saw half of Gordon who was now hiding behind a tree. He was given the task to bury the girl in the woods, by the pack leader. 

But he was unsuccessful, because of the uninvited guests. His wound in the chest slowly healed up and he was good to go. The body was far from him now and if he moved there the police would catch a glimpse of him.

It was too worth the risk. He dashed back into the and ran faster and faster. 

"A body!! Over here!!! Come!! I've found the child!!"

A shout came from one of the police officers. Gordon could hear them. It was too late. Gordon alone could not stand against all the police officers armed with the firearms. 

But now, the girl had already been discovered. A human who once possessed a system, was now with the humans. The disaster was just unimaginable!
