Chapter 27

The three of them kept walking for another 10 minutes.

But weirdly, they didn’t see any water.

And there was a rot, disgusting smell in the air, like a seething mass of bacteria that had taken over the surrounding area.

The bird song that had accompanied them the whole way had also disappeared, and they are left with nothing but an eerie silence.

Something seemed off.

Eventually, the path led them to a huge cave. The cave stood 5 meters high and seemed large enough to fit in an army of people.

“This doesn’t seem right,” Balvina whispered to Janet, her face all serious.

Kass dragged Janet to his back and stared into the pitch–black cave, “We should leave, now.”

They were right. This wasn’t the right way to go.

Yet Janet suddenly felt the wind changing direction, bringing a strong, disgusting smell!

Something was coming at them from the cave!

“LOOK OUT-” Janet screamed and shoved Kass and Balvina to the side.

They fell to the ground!

And quickly jerked around to look at the gigantic animal that just dashed out of the

cave.‘

It stood there like a tower. Then a deafening howl came from its mouth.

Janet widened her eyes.

…What the fuc k was this?!

Standing before them was a 13 feet tall bear!

But its size was way larger than a regular bear. And it had unnaturally sharp fangs and long claws, making it looked more like a werewolf than a bear.

“What the fuc k-” Balvina cried.

“Bear’s variant!” Janet said hastily, “Someone transfused werewolf’s blood to them. Making them much stronger and fiercer!”

She had heard about those rumors before.

That deep in the back mountain there was an inhabitance of crazy, lethal bears.

One was enough to take down two werewolves.

But she always thought those rumors were made–up stories to keep kids away from the back mountain.

Until today.

Until that map led them down this path!

“On your feet!” Janet hissed, “It is about to attack!”

The bear’s beaming red eyes were on them. Then with a roaring howl, it jumped directly at Kass!

Kass rolled on the ground and dodged its claw. When he stood up again, he had shifted into a large black wolf.
