Chapter THEON

18

Days later, I was standing in the middle of nowhere, surrounded by trees on the outskirts of the city. It's late evening, and the sun is no longer in the sky. In front of me was a one storey abandoned house, and surrounding it were my Elites, armed with guns and knives, Everyone was quiet, staying as still as the wind while waiting for my signal, 1. on the other hand, watched the house intently, listening for the slightest movement.

"Did you do the surveillance as requested?" I mind linked my brother. "Yes. There's just one mutant in there.

"Good."

Within minutes, the house creaked again, and when I looked up at one of the upper windows, I saw glowing red eyes.

I ordered and the order had barely left my mouth before the upper window exploded in a shower of concrete and glass! Everyone cowered but because I was a few feet away, I didn't need to. As a result, I saw a black beast jump through the air before landing on its paws, two feet away from me. Although it had some black essence oozing from
