My Werewolf System
chapter-523-30041322

Three large black vehicles could be seen heading out of the town of Slough, one more than what had entered. As for the destination, it was Rightdale, the Tier-3 town where Cardenez Electronics resided.

The new addition was the car in the centre, a long limo driven by none other than Tyler. He was nervous about the whole thing as he tightly gripped his hands on the steering wheel and looked into a camera that was on his dashboards.

Between the driver and the passengers the divider had been lifted to give those in the back their privacy. Nevertheless, Tyler was able to see what was going on through the screen on his dash, so he snuck a few glances from time to time.

‘Man oh man, every time we leave the city I get nervous. Especially at times when the others wear their masks since it almost always means we are headed for a fight. It doesn't help that there are strangers in the car as well.’ Tyler thought to himself as he shifted his focus back on the road.

In the car were the core members of the Howlers wearing their uniform and masks. Marie, Austin, Innu, Olivia and of course Kai, but they weren’t alone in the car. Harry and Will had decided to drive with them rather than in the cars they had arrived in.

“I have to admit that I am quite surprised that you have decided to come back with us.” Harry noted.

“Well, your situation is quite dire. Besides, I’m only doing what we would do if we had signed the original deal. There’s no point in having a percentage of your company without the factories that you have built up.” Kai replied.

There was a lot of tension in Will’s hands, indicating that he had a lot he wanted to say at this moment.

“The Freaks....they are an elite force of members that we have. They have the power to stop the other Tier-3 gangs from attacking. The problem is though, we have two major factories and a few small ones as well.

“Due to the constant attacks we have been getting from the other cities, the Freaks are either spread too thin, or we fail to move quick enough. I worry that the people you brought here are not enough.”

When asking for help from a leader of a gang, not just any gang but the leader of a gang that was in charge of a town or city, Will had managed a large force just like their attackers.

He was sure that the Howlers had to have many members to keep control over Slough, yet they had only brought over a handful.

“I can tell what you're thinking, our enemy has us outnumbered, so we have to be careful with how we use our members. Right now the Howlers are preparing. There is a chance that once they find out that we have decided to side with you, they’ll attack us in retaliation, either directly or by sending proxies like in your case. As such, our members need to be prepared to defend our town as well.

“Although I feel like that is unlikely. Either way they will be ready for when the real war against Notsburg will start. For the time being, I can assure you that we will be enough to deal with these Tier-3 gangs who are bothering your workers.”

Kai’s words sounded confident, but looking at the amount of members, Will didn’t share his confidence. From their body frames the sound of their voices when speaking to each other, every one sounded quite young. There were only two that felt like adults, the female whose name seemed to be Olivia, although he was unsure whether it was real or fake, and the large male with the pompadour hairstyle.

Will was worrying that Harry was putting too much hope into this group. On the entire drive, Kai’s face remained glued to his phone as he was writing to a certain someone.

“If I'm correct, one of the locations of the factory is in Whitley, while another is in Hightown?” Kai asked as he continued to type, not even looking at the other two when asking this question.

“That is correct.” Will replied. “We don’t know when the attacks will come, but those two gangs have proven quite capable in coordinating their attacks to launch them at same time. On top of that, their numbers are getting larger with each attack, and they have switched to a hit and run tactic. Because of it, the Freak’s are tired and are accumulating injuries. It's only a matter of time until they destroy everything in the factory.”

“Okay that makes things simpler then, we will head to Whitley right now.” Kai stated. “We will focus on protecting Whitley, don’t worry about the other factory.”

Now Harry was concerned. “If they attack the other factory with no support, the Freaks there will not be able to hold. Are you trying to say one is better than none?”

“You should trusty that one a bit more.” Olivia blurted out. She was the first to speak to the other two in the car compared to everyone else who was in. “If you want to save your company, I would trust him a bit more. That's all I'm going to say.”

The three cars finally entered Rightdale, due to it being a city rather than a town it was around twice the size of Slough with many districts, and quite a few cars on the road. Kai was already looking at the structures which weren't well built.

Because of the way the highways and roads were laid out a long time ago, transport was lacking and they were stuck in traffic even now. It would make sense with the size of the city and this level of traffic why it would take them so long to get from one factory to the other.

As well as overdeveloped buildings in small areas, it meant there weren't many places for them to build the large factories in the first place. Ideally the city could do with an underground subway system to allow faster travel and less traffic, but that wasn't a luxury that a tier-3 city could afford.

Eventually after going through the city they had gone on some open road, where the large factory could be seen up ahead. It was incredibly large and to walk around the whole thing it would perhaps take around an hour.

Once again, Kai could see why it was so hard for them to protect such a place as well. However he had witnessed some clever play at work. Surrounding the factory were broken abandoned cars which acted as a sort of makeshift wall. Then standing on top, and in front of the cars, were hired guards, gang members and members of the Freaks.

The wall of cars was a good 100 metres away from the factory itself. When entering everyone started to stretch, and it was safe to say that the strange appearance of the Howlers had caught the eyes of the other guards around the factory.

“What are they looking at us so weirdly for?” Innu asked as he locked eyes with one of the guards. “I mean they have the Freaks that are dressed up as clowns, right?”

“Yeah, I'm just thankful that I never made us wear something like those clown suits. I understand it's like a type of symbol. A uniform that people can remember and strike fear into the enemy eventually but why clowns of all things.”

“That should be obvious.” Austin said seriously as his arms were folded. “Clowns are scary.”

The words were said in such a deadly tone that no one knew whether it was a joke or not, and were too scared to make a comment.

“Speaking of.” Tyler called out as he leant on the car. The three cars were parked within the 100 metre circle, in between the factory and the wall of cars. “Shouldn't I wear a mask? You know, to hide my identity.”

“What for?” Olivia who was standing right next to him questioned him. “What benefit would someone possibly have from targeting our driver?”

This made Tyler sulk somewhat because he felt like his position was replaceable in the gang.

“Tyler.” Marie called out smiling underneath her mask. “You're a great driver. Usually I get car sick in cars but with you I never get car sick! I wouldn't want anyone else.”

Tears of joy nearly came out from Tyler's eyes. He had never met someone so sweet and Marie looked like an angel to him at that moment. If she wasn't in the gang, perhaps Tyler would have quit a while ago.

Right now, the group was waiting patiently for something to happen, an attack or some type of messenger to appear. Something did happen after around twenty minutes, the gates were being opened. Harry and Will looked at each other in confusion, as they weren't expecting any guests.

When the car stopped and Harry saw who got out of it, they were in for a surprise as three young students were seen.

“Numba!” Harry called out.
