My Werewolf System
chapter-159

The beast who still had the pocket knife stuck in the back of its head went after Kai, who had attacked it. There was currently no one around him but just him, and there were still a few grey colour members. Seeing how the beast had decided to focus on someone else though, they decided to make a run for it, some of them even running out of the door where the others had come in from.

‘Of course that would happen, but the only way for all of us to survive was for someone to have sacrificed themselves or become the bait, and none of them were going to do anything.’ Kai thought, as he eventually decided to turn around and run.

There was one good thing on their side fighting in the warehouse, and that was the several containers that were spread out everywhere. In some areas they were quite narrow, and they could also be used in other ways..

Up ahead, Kai had gone through between two of them, and then taken a right turn. The beast was quick to follow, and it looked like the small gap had slowed it down somewhat, but it was still incredibly fast. When the beast turned around the corner though, it was in for a surprise as an iron bar was swung right at its head, hitting it and causing it to fall on its back.

It was a strong hit and some black blood could be seen on the metal pipe.

“I don’t usually use weapons, but against a monster like you, I think it’s only fair to make an exception.” Austin said, looking down. Marie was standing a little behind him and peaked over his shoulder looking at the beast.

Behind the beast as well in the other direction was Innu, who equally had a wooden plank on him. He swung it down aiming for the beast's head, but before it hit, the beast threw out its arm, breaking it with ease.

“Crap, keep running!” Innu shouted, as he quickly jumped from side to side using the containers. He managed to use this to clearly jump over the beast without it hitting him, and continued to run with Austin who had Marie on his back again and the others.

While making this plan, the one thing Kai didn’t want them to do was split up. For if the beast found any of them alone, there was a zero percent chance for any of them to survive… apart from Gary perhaps.

When the beast got up, it could see the others running through a small gap. It knew with its larger body that it would slow itself down, so using its claws it dug into the containers, and started to climb up until it was now on top of the containers itself. With the open space, it was now easier for it to run and chase after them.

It went from container to container and could see them all from above.

——

Dealing with the other beast, Gary ended up using the same method, running through the containers on the other side.

‘I don’t exactly know how strong it is, and I can’t use my Drain Claws much either because I have a low amount of Energy, but I can’t just keep running either.’

After getting between two containers, rather than continue to run, Gary turned around, to see the beast in front of him. When seeing it up close though, and looking at his fingers, Gary couldn’t help but chuckle. It was a forced laugh to make him feel better about the situation.

“You call those claws? I’ve seen worse! I'm much more of a monster than you!” Gary taunted it. He charged in, and the beast tried swinging its arm towards him. The green haired teenager managed to duck down and avoid the hit and at the same time, its fingers had gone through the containers on the side. It slowed down its swing and it was stuck.

Gary saw this as his chance, as he swung a punch towards its chest.

‘Do I use Claw Drain now, try to do the most damage I can… or do I save my Energy, in case I need to do that!’ Gary contemplated what the better choice was, but in the end he couldn’t make a decision quick enough, and his punch connected with the beast’s chest.

Despite him having more than double his Strength, it had nearly done nothing, it looked like it hadn’t even flinched. It soon kicked Gary in the chest, causing him to fall to the ground.

[-5 HP]

[53/100 HP]

Before Gary could get up, he could feel the beast foot was on him. It was large and strong. No matter how much he struggled or grabbed onto the beast foot, Gary was unable to break himself free.

Next, one of the clawed hands had reached down for his head, and Gary managed to move it to the side, making it so that it hit the ground and pierced it. With its other hand, though, the beast had aimed at his prey’s ribs, and the teenager was unable to avoid that one while the foot was on top of him.

He could feel the sharp nails pierce his skin and go through his body, screaming in pain.

[-15 HP]

[38/100 HP]

[You are bleeding!]

[Your Health will decrease by -2 HP per minute until you’re patched up or healed.]

‘Damn it, I can’t die here! Take this!’ Gary thought.

Right now, he couldn’t afford to worry about his Energy, he needed to do something to get out. He had to rely on his powers from the system. Lifting his hand, Gary took a swing at the leg on top of him with both hands.

[Skill activated Claw Drain]

[-15 Energy]

[25/120 Energy]

Gary's hand transformed mid swing and his nails dug into the beast leg.

[+4 HP]

[+4 HP]

[46/100 HP]

[Your wound is healing]

Gary had yet to notice that his Claw Drain skill also helped heal injuries, like the one he had suffered from earlier, even if he didn’t have enough Energy to perform emergency healing, yet now wasn't the time to appreciate such a ‘life hack’.

In order to get its claws out from its legs, the beast took a step back. It looked like it was startled that Gary managed to actually injure him, but the high schooler knew that his transformation was only temporary. While Claw Drain had certainly done wonders for his Health, the same couldn’t be said for his Energy.

Getting up, since the beast was only partially injured, Gary decided to run, he ended up heading back to the main area where it was more open and there were fewer crates. He thought he might be able to see the others, but he couldn’t, all he could see were dead bodies on the ground.

“Arghh!” A shout could be heard from elsewhere. Gary could only imagine something was going on with the others.

‘I have to hurry… I have to help them!’ Gary thought as he quickly ran over to one of the already dead colour gang members. ‘I’m sorry, but I don’t have the luxury to care about the feeling’s of a dead guy, hopefully you’ll approve that your body will be used to get revenge on your killer.’

With that, Gary pulled up the sleeve of the shirt and bit into the human arm.
