View MoreAll eyes were on Olivia. It was a big question on their minds as to just who the enemy was that they needed to go against. There was a large amount of anger filling the room as one of their own had been badly hurt; they wanted to know where exactly to channel all of this anger."Wait, you can't go in there!" A voice was heard from outside. Gary remembered that it was the nurse who had brought them there.Moments later, the door slid open, and forcing themselves into the room were three young adults, ones that Gary had seen a few times before."What were you guys doing, where were you?" Bo shouted. "You guys are meant to be the leaders of this gang, so why the heck was Austin fighting on his own!"The three men who had come through the door were Bo, Felix, and Alfie. These were the three who would follow Austin everywhere when he was in school, and they continued to do so.They were some of the first members of the Howlers gang and even had worked at the Wolf's pool club for a while.

In Slough, one of the hospitals in Cipen had been rebuilt. It had been upgraded, allowing for state-of-the-art equipment to be placed in it. It was something that needed to be done to attract well-known doctors with great skills.The one thing that was missing from Slough right now was a large well-known university, so they could funnel students into the workforce. However, with the way things were, they needed to attract as many talents as they could outside of Slough, and convince them that it was the place to be.They had been doing a good job of that in many areas, but the hospital, in particular, was an important area for the Howlers gang. This was because Gary had a particular person that he was looking after, someone who had been asleep for a while now.Today, Gary was visiting the hospital along with Kai. The sun had risen as it was the start of the new day, but he wasnât here to visit his mother, he was here to see someone else.âI didnât think I would be coming here to see s
The flaming dart thrown by Stunker did something strange the moment it hit Austin. The fire burned brightly and started to spiral around as if it were being controlled, and when it did, the darts were going deeper into Austin's chest.Because of this, the darts were almost ripping apart his flesh, and blood was flowing out rather quickly from his body, causing large alarm bells to go off in Vere's head."AUSTIN!" she screamed.She tried to run to his side, but as she did, a hot claw came right at her face. She managed to pull back in time and lift her leg, her foot having transformed into a hoof. It whacked the man right on the chin, sending him back, but he managed to catch himself.Even with the strong hits and timing that Vere was able to pull off, these Altered were stronger than your average ones, and they should be, since they had come from a tier one city of all places."ARGHHH!" A loud roar came from Austin's mouth, and as he puffed his nose, his muscles expanded. When they gr
The restaurant had a lot of money put behind it, a lot of thought went into the architectural design. Even the glass was expensive that had been used, meant to even withstand regular Anti-Altered weapons. This was meant to be Izzyâs first success and everything was going well. Her hard work was paying off and now she was seeing it go up in flames, and soon afterwards being drowned. The wood, the furniture, none of it could be reused now. But she understood Austin had only done what needed to be done. As the water drenched everything in the room, it started to sink down into drains even lower compared to before.It was a safety mechanism that had been designed but the water was still going down at a slow rate and was reaching just below most of their knees. âI want every single one of their heads!â Izzy shouted. Her hair was transforming, stretching out like a frenzy going up against one of the attackers. It was the man with the flaming tale. He swung his tail creating a wall of fi
The restaurant was a relatively large space that could seat around five hundred diners, and the venue was fully booked up. Scattered around the area, there appeared to be around fifteen different people who were standing up at different tables.One of the men immediately noticed one of the guests trying to get up and leave, a woman. He promptly grabbed her by the hair and pulled her back, slamming the back of her head right through the table. It was clear that the strength of a human hadn't been used; it was something much more than that."Get rid of everyone that's in here!" The half-dyed red-haired man shouted.The man was known as Stunker, and he was one of the upper members of the Phoenix gang."Everyone will soon know that the Howlers gang isn't even strong enough to protect the people inside it!"Listening to Stunker's orders, all of them started to act, and not just that, nearly all fifteen of them began to transform into their Altered forms. One of the members had grown a thic
Both Kai and Gary were working hard to come up with a plan, but with the current plan, they would need to rely on Midwak, and he was still out of commission at this time.Instead, for the time being, Gary was focusing on a few things. For one, his sister Amy, as well as his mother. He had asked for increased security around his mother, and he would secretly keep an eye on his sister in the meantime.Since they were hitting everything that belonged to the Howlers, they would also assume that Gary Dem, a business tycoon that worked for them and an ex AFC fighter, would be on their list of targets.However, there was a chance that they wouldn't come for them directly and instead would target those around him.Amy was living a good life now; she had finished school and was getting ready to go to university. Surprisingly, White had chosen the same course as her in computer engineering.It was hard to say if this was Kai's doing, to have someone around her at all times protecting her or not
The information that Tom had found out was passed onto Kai, and now it was becoming clearer as to why Midwak and even Numba had struggled to catch whoever it was that had attacked them.Still, the main issue had persisted; they had no clue who was behind the attacks in the first place."This group." Kai tensed his fist, slowly banging it on the table. He had kept his anger in; otherwise, it would have been smashed in half. "The group is crazy enough to even do this to someone like NIRV. They must be confident that even if they were caught, they could handle the consequences.""Mythical type Altereds," Gary repeated, trying to remember the information he knew about them. "Most Altered forms are based on ancient beasts that used to live on earth, right? In turn, a lot of them look similar to the animals we still have on earth but aren't quite the same. But as for Mythical types, that's something more on the lines of what Austin has?"Gary knew his fair share about Altered's, that was be
Going up against any of the kings wasnât going to be good for them, and there was another worry in this battle. After fighting against a king, how would they recover, that was even if they won.Surely the other kings would be watching and waiting, ready to pounce on the opportunity to take the city and its resources; fighting against one of them wasnât just fighting against one of them."They had to have made this move now before we got any bigger," Kai said, rubbing the side of his chin. It was where the scar was from when he had been hurt by Midwak. It was something he often did when he felt a little stressed by the situation."So we need to find out why any of these guys would attack us, right? From the standpoint of them just worrying about us getting bigger, wouldnât Sin Ignis be the first choice since we're the closest city?" Gary asked.For the first time, Gary and Kai were thinking along the same lines."Itâs not just about who we think, though we need to know for certain. Say
Gary and Kai had just left the main office after their talk with Ashen, having learned what was going on and all the problems the Howlers were dealing with. Gary had seen Kai fall to his knees.He looked straight ahead, staring at the hallway that led to only the elevators as he proclaimed he had no idea what to do.It was the first time, the first time Gary had seen Kai like this."Kai, you've always been strong, always doing everything for the gang behind the scenes and have never been able to rest."As things have gotten bigger, you continued to take on that burden each time. It must have been getting to you, but we never saw it. And now with everything being attacked at once, you don't even know where to start."Walking over, Gary placed his hand on his shoulder."The answer is simple," Gary said with a smile. "We just need to find out who's behind this and pay them back ten times more. We don't have to worry about anything else."Gary's simple view allowed for a light to be seen
