The end

Chapter 2

"No. No. No. No. Did you get that N -O." Kia says after I told them what I wanted to do. I didn't see what was so bad about trying yo catch a six foot tall monster and then experimenting on them to see what kills them. Not such a big deal.

"I'm not going to put my life on the line for one of your silly little plans Max." Meck said.

"But -" I started to complain.

"No buts Max. No means no." Cat said like she was scolding a little child.

"I'll go with you. Then you can all see the new fighting moves I learned." Zane said from my side.

" If we can catch one and experiment on it we might be able to change them back with an antitode. And therefore saving all of humanity." Cal  said. His brain always thinking of plans.

Everyone started to look at one another. Contemplaitimg what they should do.

"Fine" they all say at the same time.
A smile grows  on my face.

"Great! Lets go!" I say as I start looking for weapons.

***

Miya chose a katana to be her weapon and wears it on her back a weapon that can kill in a mere second.

Kia chose throwing knives. Their points sharp and deadly.

Cat chose what suited her name best. Catlike claws, dipped in poison leaving a person with five claw marks on their onces beautiful skin.

Shannon chose twin blades. One in each hand and her personallity changes.

Zane chose a sword. The silver tip , tipped in poison.

Meck with a bat in hands with jagged metal sticks sticking out of it.

Cal of course chose a simpler weapon. A bow and arrow.  Well
To him it was the simplest of weapons.

And I of course chose an axe. I just love the sharpend end. With each swing I can feel its deadly blow waiting to happen.

We're ready.

***
Our footsteps bounces against the empty hallway as we near the metal doors. The screeching sound of the rats are dying down meaning that one of theem found an unlucky human to feast on today.

Pressing the red button the doors slowly open with a creacking noise. Most people say 'Don't press the red button.'  But I just pressed it. No alarms go off. Lucky for us.

Stepping outside I breath the air for the first time in years. It would have been calming was it not for the white mess of flesh charging towards us.

***(P.O.V change)

The thing was charging at us and non of us moved. We needed to move. Yelling at the eight in front of me to move I take aim at the rat and let go. It hit one of its eyes and a white blood came gushing out of it.

Looking around I look for high ground. The chances that these things can climb was slim.

"We need to find high ground , it's not save on the ground." Just as the words left my mouth a strange howl left the rat. So hitting its eyes only slows it down. It came charging at us and it seems to have grown bigger. Like its anger was fuelling its veins.

Everyone took out there weapons and took up fighting stances. A person could smell their fear.

Why did Max want one of these? Did she even think about how to restrain one? Chances was no she did not.

"Well Max we can atleast try to find a way to kill it. Or have you thought of ways to restain it?"

She thinks for a moment before her face pales.

I'll take that as a no.

The rat was almost on top of us. Meck moved forwards and swung the bat. Hitting the rat in the face. White blood sprayed onto his face and clothes.

The rat let out a yelp and tried bitting at Meck.

He bit his arm and Meck let out a scream.

Zane took action to try and save our friend. He started slashing the rat trying to get its attetion away from Meck.

The rat held onto his arm not wanting to go. Probally loving the sweet tast of blood.

Cal took his bow and shot an arrow straight into its uninjured eye. It let go and howled in pain.

So the rats eyes are sensitive.

Zane moved fast and cut of the rat's head. White blood colouring the muddy ground.

A slight chuckle left my lips," Well Max I hope that you gathered info from this fight. 'Cause I am definitly not doing that again."

"Yes I have learned a few thing about this fight. It was quite fasinating Kia." She said.

"We need to look for high ground before that poor soul's last bone is gone. We also need to make sure that Meck's injury doesn't get infected."

They all nodded to my plan.

Looking around I see the base. A few trees in the distant and the muddy floor we are stepping on.

I would preffer the base , but that would be a waist since we came all the way out here to 'study' them. So the trees are the best option.

I started walking toward them and the rest just followed. Knowing that I studies surviving when I was younger.

Anamalistic growls were a few meters in front of us.

I think I found the place that unlucky human was walking because I still hear his cries of pain even with the dozen or so rats ontop of him. Eating him alive.
