Chapter 13

Lycanthropos was still shaken from the event of yesterday night. He had been walking back home when he got that usual feeling that there was someone following him. He paused and turned around to look but didn’t see anybody.

The street lights were dim, so he could not see far into the distance, but his instincts were strong. He picked a metal pipe he found close by as a way to protect himself. His heart was racing, and his whole muscles activated for the fight.

But just as he was about to round the corner, two hooded men jumped from the roof. He docked so they wouldn’t hit him. He swung the pipe he was holding to hit the first man, but the first man bent down, and he missed the attack.

“We’re not gonna hurt you,” the first man said as he stood up slowly. “Please, calm down.”

They took off their black hoods, and Lycanthropos was shocked to see who they were.

Out of shock, he dropped the pipe he was holding. “Have you guys been following me? Why?”
