My Werewolf System-Novel

Chapter 305 - Escape

The police force were already on the move once they saw that the fighting had started to settle down. They had been waiting for the moment when either of the Altered would finish the other off.

Altered, no matter what state they were in, were dangerous. There was no point losing police force’s lives over the current incident, and as for Sadie, she was being cautious for other reasons.

‘When that Wolf Altered howled, my foot started to hurt again. Was he the one that bit me? But according to the gathered DNA it should have been the deceased Billy Bruntin… not to mention his fur colour was different.’

‘Since when were there so many Altered in this sh*tty Tier-3 town? We will have to make a report to stay here longer after this.’ Sadie thought.

“Are you sure you want to do this?” Anton asked one more time before giving the order to his men. “You know that reporter from Channel Five is filming everything, right? If we do this, we will look like the bad guys.”

Sadie laughed at his comment.

“I don’t care about the public’s opinion.” She replied. “Whether we are the bad guys or not, we are simply doing our job. Besides, do you really think these people came here to protect the innocent?”

“No, this whole war certainly started because of the gangs in the first place. Those Howlers must have just seen the opportunity and decided to take advantage of it. No one cares for the people but us. They seem to forget because your men wear uniforms, but they have lives as well. They have families they need to go home to.”

It was then that the unexpected had occurred, the fight was over, but the Wolf Altered had taken both of them out of the area. That guy was most likely the gang leader, so Sadie had been sure he would stay back and protect his fellow gang members.

However, Gary had not simply left the scene, but he had taken Kirk’s body with him. Because of this, she needed to act fast. With her Altered form, she should be able to catch up to them and arrest them while they were weak.

The next second, a single wing sprouted from her back.

‘What the-?! What is wrong with me!’ Sadie was confused at her body not listening to her.

“Don’t worry about them, let's just deal with those in front of us. Let's protect the people like you said.” Frank attempted to cheer his partner up.

The single wing retracted back into her body, to the dismay of the woman.

The police started to charge in from both sides, and the Howler members were injured. If they were to fight their way out of this, it certainly would be difficult for them.

“Come on! We won’t be able to convince them to get you out of this one, we have to go!” Olivia shouted. She wasn’t sure if it was her own desire, or her just adhering to the Pack Rules, but she felt compelled to help the little rascals.

In her own group, they wouldn't get punished too much, not unless they had proof that they had murdered some of those that were dead, but most of that had been done by Damion.

The others got up, and stayed closely behind her. They ran forward and could see that police forces were down even the narrow streets to the other side. So instead, she decided to throw her whip out towards one of the shop’s doors.

It wrapped around the handle, and the next thing with her strength she pulled it completely off, and flung it to the side, throwing it in the distance towards the police.

“She's really good with that whip, huh? I mean she's doing things that are impossible, right?” Marie asked.

The others didn't really think about it much, but Marie was right. A special trait of the whip was that as long as Olivia could picture what she wanted to do with it, the whip would do exactly that. It would follow the image in her mind, giving her perfect control.

With her added strength and speed, it had made her a lot stronger than before. The group thought that they might have to barge through the crowd of people inside, but as they entered everyone stepped out of their way.

“There's a door in the back!”

“Come this way, we’ll try to hold off the police for you.”

It looked like they had gained the public's trust for getting involved and dealing with those creatures, more so than the police. Immediately, after the Howlers had entered, they stood in front of the door, trying to slow down the police in whatever way they could.

They followed what looked like the owner to the back door, who was drastically trying to find the key, on the chain of multiple.

“It's okay, old man, thanks for the help so far!” Olivia shouted as she booted the door open. They were now clearly on the other side of the street.

She ran out, and the others quickly followed behind her.

“We’ll send someone to pay for the door, I promise.” Kai said as he ran past with the rest.

They were finally on the other side, but still running, they thought soon the others would catch up with them. If the police force was to send a car after them, or someone spotted them, they would be in trouble. That was when a car was heard screeching around the corner.

It quickly reached the gang members and stopped. The door was immediately opened by Kevin from the inside.

“Get in quickly!”

Immediately, all of them jumped into the car, squashing into the back, while Olivia calmly opened the door to the front and got in. There were a lot of them, so it was a bit of a squeeze, but that didn't matter right now.

The next second, the car was driving off away from the scene.

“Whoa…man, my hands are shaking.” Tyler confessed behind the wheel.

“You’ve certainly earned your keep. Remind me to give you a bonus once we make it out safely.” Kai complemented the other.

“How, did you know… how?” Innu asked.

“You guys were all over the news. We were watching what was going on, and when we saw the police making their move, we knew we had to do something.” Suzan explained.

“But what about the wolf mask boy, should we drive around and try to find him?'' Tyler asked.

“He’s okay.” Olivia answered. “Trust me.”

——

At that moment, Gary didn't know where he was, but he had been leaping across shops or apartment rooftops, getting away from the area as much as he could. Eventually, when he could no longer hear the sound of fighting or other things.

He stayed where he was, an empty rooftop with hardly anything there, just a few lines of clothing that people had put out and not put away even though it was now nighttime. Gary carefully placed Kirk on the floor and could see the wound in his body.

His eyes were still working as it looked towards him.

“What…are you doing?” Kirk finally managed to utter out.

Right now, Gary was still in his werewolf form unrecognisable, but cancelling his Full Transformation, his face started to revert, tears flowing down his face.

“I’m sorry… I’m so sorry.”

As the fur started to disappear and the face went back to normal, Kirk could see who it was.

“Greeny?”
