Supernatural Tales: Welcome To Their World

Chapter 17: The Mall Part 2.

Julian's POV-

Things have just went from having a good time to literally just how in the world did I end up in this situation since as of now I am currently now grappling at the antlers of the wendigo that I had managed to avoid it's incoming charge. Now the only thing I could think of doing was holding on for dear life with the monster now attempting to try and fling me off from their back like a rodeo in the sense though in all honesty I would've expected this from the minotaur.

Though to my sudden surprise I would look up to hearing the sound of incoming stomping on the ground as there it was, the minotaur running forward on all fours and charging head first with its horns. And at that moment I was still holding onto the antlers of the Wendigo and so pulling on them had caused the creature to start swinging their claws around wildly which then lead to getting a quick slash at the minotaur but due to its large stature, it had still led to both of us being pushed back a great distance.

Once slamming hard against the wall my grip on the antlers soon became loose after the wendigo then collapsed to the ground. Thankfully it had took more of the forced impact from the minotaur instead of me which had also gave me enough time to make another run for it while I still could. My main and primary focus at hand was to get out of the mall and meet up with Selina and maybe make it back to the school grounds. For one I wasn't planning on to take action against the monsters considering there was now four of them not to mention the harpy and giant bear who could be anywhere.

As I continued to run on foot while looking at any sign of a nearby exit door or possibly the entrance to the mall, from above the harpy would be screeching at me and proceeded to try and dive downward to prevent me from getting any further as I immediately slowed down and almost fell back.

"Come on... let's be reasonable about this ma'am...or bird lady? I don't judge, if you don't kill me at least..." I spoke.

"Child of Ogre..." It responded again.

"Okay you're gonna have to reiterate on that please...?" I said.

"Your blood...so pure...so ripe..." It then croaked.

"That's pretty creepy for you to answer with." I remarked.

"With your blood....is the key to our master's salvation..." They said again sounding raspy.

"As much as I want to find out what or who you're talking about, I got to cut this conversation off.." I stated before immediately grabbing a piece of jewelry near me to quickly throw at the harpy.

Once it was distracted I immediately turned the other direction and bolted forward to keep on the move once again as to my right would be the bear just several feet behind me but on my trail following fast. By now my adrenaline was already kicked in and continuing to pump on throughout my system which was keeping me on the go. Even with the sense of the bear getting closer and closer to my side I was still looking forward and running as fast as I could almost to the point that I barely felt my legs. As well as how I wasn't really sure on where I was within the mall at this point since with all the running and switching from one direction to the next I was pretty much lost at this.

Only then feeling a sudden tight pain on my arm as I looked to see the bear already near my side and it's jaw clamped down on my right arm. Out of the pain and instinct to attack now, I then used my free left arm to strike several punches at its head. Though with one lucky strike I managed to get a hit at the bear in the eye with my hand somehow getting a bit deep for me to pull out it eye ball out. That was enough for the bear to let it's jaw open loose and for me to keep running while it was handling their injury. For some reason though even with the feeling of intense fear keeping my adrenaline active, another thrilling feeling began to come up after what I had did which was excitement. The same feeling I felt when being attacked during the tracks encounter.
