My Werewolf System
chapter-714

Riding on the stolen motorbikes, Austin could see that there wasn't anyone chasing them, and the shadow fighter was leading the way, but as he saw there were no pursuers, he suddenly slammed on the brakes after escaping the hilly areas and was now on the road.

The loud screech from the tires and brakes caused the shadow fighter to turn around. They could see Austin just there in the middle of the road, and the fighter known as Sharkey was still hanging on with his arms around his back.

“What’s wrong?” The shadow fighter asked, pulling up right next to Austin.

“Vlad, I left that damned kid back there. That Killer guy and his boss, they know that he came with me. Who knows what they're going to do to him. I have to go back and get him.” Ausitn said, twisting the throttle of the bike, revving it up.

“Wait!” The shadow fighter shouted. “It’s already too late. The backup from the Scavengers gang will have already arrived by now, and if you go back, how are you going to deal with that person that’s on your back.”

“You take him.” Ausitn said, already pulling him off from his back. “You don’t understand, that kid is not a fighter. He’s only involved in all of this crap because of me. If something happened to him, how the heck am I meant to live that down.”

Underneath the mask of the shadow fighter, the mouth was moving quite a bit, and their eyebrows were furrowed.

“I can’t take him.” The shadow fighter stated. “I… I don’t have any money. In this city, because of the situation, they ask everyone to pay upfront before they will even treat anyone.

“Guys like that, they’ll just end up being left for the dead. Look, I’ll head back, and I’ll do everything I can to make sure your friend survives, I promise it. When you think that guy’s safe on your back, come to this location.”

Grabbing out a pen and a piece of paper, they wrote down a few instructions before throwing over a piece of card to Austin, who had caught it in his hands.

“I’ll leave it to you.”

Before Austin could say anything, the shadow fighter was already heading back in the direction they had come from, leaving Austin extremely worried for a number of reasons.

‘Why would they do so much for a stranger.’ Austin thought. ‘They don’t even know the Vlad kid, they don’t have to feel responsible like me, and honestly although the shadow fighter is strong, if they have to go up against that Viper guy, I don’t think they would win.’

Looking at Sharkey on his back though, he had no time to waste himself, and hurried off looking for the nearest hospital, with a thought at the back of his mind. How the hell was he going to pay for the operation?

Arriving at the hospital, Austin had parked right in front of it, where the ambulances were meant to arrive. He immediately got off and didn’t care as he rushed in carrying Sharkey on his back.

“Hey!” Austin shouted in the waiting room at the top of his lungs, causing everyone to freeze in the hospital. “I have a dying man here, someone get over here and help him!”

Several of the nurses were quick to work, as they got the necessary equipment to treat him and took Sharkey off his hands, but that was when a particular person, not a nurse but a doctor in white robes, approached Austin.

“I’m sure you know the rules, judging by the several wounds he has on his body and the condition he is in. He will require emergency help, which can be quite costly. You have the funds to pay for this?” The doctor asked, looking at Austin up and down.

Even though Austin looked older for his age, at most he could be classed as a university student, and what student would have the money to do such a thing.

“F*CK!” Ausitn said. “Someone is about to die, and all you care about is money!”

Ausitn was extremely frustrated, and he could see the doctor was already on his way to order the other nurses to stop. How could a place be so cruel? A flash of red entered his mind as he thought of threatening and forcing the doctors to work, but wondered what kind of situation that would create.

Instead he pulled out his phone, and made a call to a certain individual. When the phone answered, Ausitn said a few words.

“Kai… I need to pay for a hospital bill.”

Austin thought about saying more, about explaining the situation, but he couldn’t think properly at the time and no words were coming out. What he didn’t realise was that his tone of voice and his few words made Kai aware of how important the situation was.

“Pass the phone to whoever needs paying.” Kai said.

Ausitn did as said, and the doctor nodded his head a few times. A few words were passed back and forth, and the doctor eventually heard his phone ping, a notification from his bank.

When looking at his phone, his eyes nearly exploded out of his skull.

“Quickly, take that patient to the VIP room, we have to save him at all costs!”

With the problem sorted, the phone had been handed back over to Austin, and Kai could be heard on the other end.

“Hey, do you need any help? If you need the Howlers involved in any of this, just let me know. The gang is for all of us, we all help each other out.” Kai said.

“Thanks.” Austin said. “But I’ll deal with this on my own.”
