My Werewolf System

Chapter 285 - You Can’t Die

Of course, the news spread around the area of Slough, and the public were quick to rush into their homes. Some took the news seriously, while others thought that perhaps the police were exaggerating or that this was just a made up story to have the people off the streets.

Whatever the case, the Grey Elephants didnʼt care because in the first place, their aim was to get another groupʼs attention, and that they certainly did.

“Boss!” One of the men in suits came running into his office, only to see that Damion was already standing, surrounded by some of his most trusted men.

“Speak!” Damion shouted at the man who had just entered.

“We keep getting calls from all our businesses from each of the areas! Itʼs definitely a targeted attack!” The man explained. Turning around, Damion picked something off the desk and the next second as he spun, he threw out a knife, hitting the man straight in the forehead and killing him on the spot.

“Thatʼs wasting my time with information I already know!” Damion scoffed. “We knew the Grey Elephants were going to attack us, but those weasels can’t even bother to do it themselves. For now, forget about all the other areas. We will protect Cipen and get rid of all those that are here.

“After today businesses will have no other choice anyway. Once we’re the only ones in town, they will come and go when this all blows over, and we will just take them back. You, tell me, have we heard any news from Kirk and the Cheetah Squad?” Damion asked.

One of the men gulped before answering.

“Yes, one of his men reported that he has almost annihilated the entirety of the Grey Elephant gang that was at their warehouse. However, none of their leaders were present when they arrived.”

Hearing this news, the Underdog gang leader smiled.

“Good, that means that their leaders are somewhere else, and will be personally coming over. The only question is who the f*ck is pulling their strings? … Ah, it doesn’t matter, I’ll find out soon enough, once I skin all their members alive. Tell Kirk to head to the other areas to clear them out as he makes his way back here.”

Going up to the wall at the back of the room, he looked up to a pair of red coloured small axes. His men thought of them as nothing but simple decorations and were wondering why their boss would grab them now of all times. They didnʼt exactly look regular, as their handles were covered in scales and the head itself was white, as if it was made from a type of bone.

Damionʼs weapon of choice had always been a pair of small axes. Perhaps because whenever he ended up using them, there would always be a mess, instilling fear in those who followed him, making them think twice about ever crossing him. And this pair was certainly quite special.

“I was hoping to solve the damned package situation before this, but these Grey Elephants just couldn’t cherish their last days on Earth. Pulling this stunt could get us all killed. Well, I’ll at least make sure they’ll die before us!” Damion murmured, as he walked out the door.

The man kicked the door open from his office and entered the nightclub floor, which had been open for a couple of hours. The customers inside were frightened and shaking. It looked like they had run inside away from the monsters.

Walking through, he had his men behind him, using more conventional and regular weapons, while some of them had none. Walking up the stairs to the high street, Damion kicked the door open as well, seeing the chaos unfold.

There were people screaming and running all sorts of directions. However, there didn’t seem to be any gang members out and about on the streets, at least not yet.

“Send out the small timers to the end of the streets. Tell them to stay there and kill them, anything that isn’t a panicked civilian. I doubt this will be the full attack, so if I were them, I would be waiting for us to get tired.”

In doing so, the newbies along with some younger members started to run out either side. One of those ‘lucky’ enough to help protect Cipen was Gil. However, he and his group didn’t get fair, until they encountered the beings the people were running from.

They looked like kids, only clearly deformed, their bodies resembling strange beasts more than human. The main thing, though, was how they were covered in blood and the street behind them had bodies as well.

One of the Underdog gang members pulled out his knife and one of the creatures ran towards him at a fast speed. The man slashed his knife cutting deep into the beastʼs hand, however, with its other hand, and its pencil-like nails that were similar to long mini drills, it repeatedly stabbed the adult in the side of the neck, making him drop dead on the ground.

Watching this, Gil panicked. He had been handed a baseball bat, so putting all his strength he swung from below, hitting the creature right in the rib, sending him off in the other direction. However, the gang member was clearly on his last legs and bleeding out.

The other gang members, despite having more than three times the number, were having trouble dealing with the creatures, and soon Gil heard growls near him. Looking up, he could see that the creature he had swatted away, was up again. The teenager was sure he had broken its ribs, yet the only sign of damage was black blood seeping out from its mouth as it was staring at him.

‘Sh*t Iʼm going to die here!’ Gil thought, as he placed his bat behind his head and was ready to swing it once again.

The small creature ran quickly, and the dropout swung the bat aiming for its head, yet it was prepared for him. At the last moment it stepped back, making him miss completely, leaving him open for its attack. The beast was ready to pierce both its claws right through the teenager’s soft body.

Having over swung the bat, there was no getting out of this one for Gil…

When he closed his eyes, ready to feel pain, he heard a scream in front of him. Opening his eyes again, he saw a red axe having cut right through the beastʼs arms, chopping them off. The next second, Damion used the other axe, slicing the beast’s head off, killing it on the spot.

“You… youʼre the one who claimed to know where Greeny was, right?” Damion asked. “I’ll have you accompany me. It’s too early for you to die.”
