Chapter 347: A Trained Wolf

Chapter 347: A Trained Wolf

A group of more than a dozen people had appeared in a dimly lit underground car park that was filled with black vehicles, all with tinted out windows. As if that alone wasn’t shady enough, each one of them had a large black sports in their hand or strapped on their back, large enough to hold a pair of skis inside.

Of course, these men weren’t just a normal group of enthusiastic ski goers, but the inner circle of the Underdogs. The content of their bags was priceless for any normal salary worker, which was just more of a reason to keep it hidden from public eyes. Right now, these men were following behind Damion, who angrily paced towards the cars.

‘Why does it seem that all my problems started after I agreed to smuggle that damn package? Ever since it went missing, I have been haunted by problems everywhere. Since Greeny took out Kirk, I couldn’t even be happy about doing in Brandon. I just hope that NIRV guy really makes it worth our while for capturing that traitor and takes his sweet time extracting his Altered DNA.

‘And now we have more problems. I can’t believe it at a time like this. Someone has attacked every single one of the Underdog hideouts. Some of those places were being used to store other Anti-Altered equipment as well.

‘Who leaked the information?’

Thinking about his prisoner, Damion suddenly stopped, reminded of the other traitor. He had always been wary of a rat appearing in their midst, but learning that it was his own flesh and blood had stung more than he had ever been prepared for. Part of him didn’t want to believe it, but in hindsight it made sense, especially how those Pincers had managed to pinpoint every single operation of his after that night.

‘Well, with this group and our weapons, we should be able to take on any of them that come our way. Then I'll bring back everyone one of those damn Howlers that he thought were his allies, and force them to fight to the death for their freedom, including that damned brat of mine!’

When Damion finally reached his car, he let out a blood-curdling scream. This safehouse was something only those in his inner circle were privy to, yet someone had managed to sneak in and slash all the tires.

‘This is a private complex, no one should be in he-’

Damion’s thoughts were interrupted by something crashing down on top of the car. Quickly one of his trusted men pushed him to the side, just in time for the next second he suffered a large impact to the side of the head. It was a foot but not just a simple kick, it was a strong one, sending the man falling into the car parked next to it.

His head had hit the windscreen and had smashed the glass to pieces before falling to the floor. He wasn't going to be getting up any time soon to fight, yet his shallow breathing was a sign that he had at least survived.

Two more quickly went towards their leader, with one of them pulling him back and out of the way, as the other tried to intercept this enemy. They soon found themselves being hit by a strange circular device. It looked like a ball, but once touching their skin, a sharp pain was felt as it opened up and hooked four points into the person's skin.

Shortly after, a sharp electric current like a stun gun went through their whole body, only stronger, shocking them to the point where they had collapsed onto the floor.

‘It was worth waiting in that ceiling for the perfect time.’ Kai thought while he stayed crouched down on the bonnet of the car, using his new-found strength and claws to stay up above on some metal work.

Unfortunately, he had ended up unable to make use of the element of surprise. Both times Damion had been protected by his men. It was as if there was some force field, or magnetic pulse around him, that didn't allow him to be hit.

Either way, Kai thought fast and changed his targets to those next to him, taking them out one by one, using the Anti-Altered equipment he had obtained and beaten.

The sound of something swinging through the air had caught Kai’s attention, and quickly he rolled away from the strike, allowing for a bat-like weapon to smash the bonnet. Looking at what had almost hit Kai, he could see that it had gone right through the metal of the car, causing a large dent.

‘That's not an ordinary weapon. It must have given him some super strength or something, or it has some strange technology I don’t understand.’ Kai analysed. Either way, he quickly climbed back onto the bonnet of the car using one hand, and leapt with both his legs forward in the air, kicking the man right in the face, hitting him a great distance like before.

Looking towards the others, he could see one person had a type of crossbow in his hand, as he fired out a bolt, the teenager quickly rolled back allowing three arrows to miss him, and he was now on the roof of the car itself.

Kai had trained non-stop since that day he had lost his mother, and he was thankful for that. He had then used his experience putting himself in real fighting situations since making the Howlers with Gary. Now with his new body, he had reached a potential he had never thought he could.

However, he was currently looking at slightly less than a dozen remaining gang members, all with Anti-Altered weapons having been brought out. Sure they couldn't utilise the weapons properly like the Altered Hunters or his own father with his axes, drawing the special energy from them, but they were still strong weapons, nonetheless. Strong enough to have captured Gary.

“It appears that there is actually more of me in you than I ever thought.” Damion stated with a smile as he took out his axes. “You were born to rise to the top and take whatever you want for yourself… even if you have to take out your old man!”

“The last part is the only thing you got right!” Kai shouted, his heart rate increased. He had expected his father to have any number of emotions, be it scared, worried, or angry, yet for him to feel pleased about the teenager trying to take revenge just made Kai boil with anger.

Soon his forearms started to grow slightly as they bulged. So wide that it ripped his clothing. Now, clawed hands covered in grey fur could be seen, along with his fierce blue glowing eyes.
