My Cerberus Girlfriend

Book Four: Chapter 11

Roger's heart was pounding with excitement and determination as he began to climb the tree, the golden apples just within his grasp. He felt the rough bark beneath his fingertips as he pulled himself higher and higher, energy pulsing through the tree.

But suddenly, the air was filled with a deafening roar, and a massive reptile monster emerged from the shadows. Its multiple heads hissed and snapped at the team, saliva dripping from its jaws. It was the guardian of the tree, and it was clear it wasn't going to let them take the apples without a fight.

"Hydra!" Rolf's eyes blazed with ferocity as he transformed into a werewolf, ready to take on the monstrous beast. The Cerberus women joined in, snarling and snapping at the hydra, determined to protect their team. Meanwhile, Roger continued to climb, his focus solely on the golden apples.

The hydra lashed out with its tail, sending Rolf tumbling back. But the werewolf quickly recovered, lunging at the monster's neck with his sharp teeth. The Cerberus women attacked from all sides, trying to distract the hydra from Roger.

As the battle raged on, the tree shook and swayed. Roger was getting closer and closer to the apples when suddenly, one of the hydra's heads accidentally breathed fire, igniting the tree.

Roger's heart sank as he realized he was trapped on the burning tree, the heat and smoke making it difficult to breathe. He could hear the sounds of the battle around him, but his focus remained on the apples. He had to get them before it was too late.

The hydra was distracted by the flames, thrashing around in confusion. Rolf saw his chance and lunged at the monster's exposed underbelly, tearing into its flesh. The Cerberus women continued to fight, biting and clawing at the hydra.

Meanwhile, Roger reached for the nearest golden apple, feeling a surge of energy coursing through his body as he grabbed it. He knew he had to get as many as he could, but just as he was about to grab another, a burning branch fell in front of him, blocking his path.

Trapped, with no way to escape the flames, the battle raged on around him. Rolf caught sight of Roger and roared with rage, fighting even harder to protect his team and save his friend.

The Cerberus women were putting up a fierce fight, but they were outnumbered and outmatched by the hydra. It was a brutal battle, with no end in sight. The flames continued to spread, and the smoke grew thicker.

Roger was starting to feel lightheaded, the smoke and heat making it difficult to focus. He reached out again, grasping for another golden apple, and felt a jolt of electricity coursing through his body.

But suddenly, a sharp pain shot through his side as the hydra spotted him and lashed out with one of its heads. Roger stumbled, feeling dizzy and disoriented.

As he tried to grab onto a branch to steady himself, his fingers slipped, and he fell. His body battered and broken, he was falling through the flames.

But just as he was about to hit the ground, he felt a sudden jolt. He had landed on something soft, something that broke his fall. He opened his eyes, and he saw Rolf standing over him, his massive werewolf form shielding him from the flames.

Roger grinned with relief. "Thanks…"

Rolf nodded and rushed back to the fight.

The Cerberus women were still fighting the hydra, but they were starting to tire. It was clear that they needed to come up with a plan fast before the hydra emerged victorious.
