The Godslingers 300: Chapter 9

Clark's P.O.V

"OWW!!!" I screamed in pain, clutching my head where Sophia had hit me. Truly, I did not anticipate that. I crumbled down to my knees and tried to endure the massive headache.

Sophia stood right beside me, and I stood up. "What was that for???"

She didn't get to answer because Melvin, who apparently had gone scouting, had seen something bizarre. It appears to be a snowflake outside, but the color is red. Melvin told us not to touch the snowflakes or else we get death.

Uehara looked through his telescope, while I looked at mine. I saw a bunch of mortals still in the streets slowly succumbed to their deaths upon contact with the red snowflakes. This is not good. It appears that the red storm contain some kind of super-evolved pathogenic that can kill within minutes to hours.

"This is bad." Uehara shivered. "Very bad."

"True that." I, Dan and Kyuseishu agreed.

Just then, when I looked at the window outside, I was alarmed, because from the red snowflakes, three figures marched towards us.

"Furies!!" Clark said in alarm. One fury charged through the front door while the other two flanked from the left and right. I decided to take the fury in the front, and Jeannette is with me.

"Ready?" Jeannette asked me.

"Ready." I replied.

Together, we charged at the furies right in front of us. The furies apparently had evolved too, with their vulture-like wings allowing them to travel at very fast speeds over distances.

I saw the fury coming close, and I slowed time down. The fury apparently is surprised to why is she travelling slower that she expected?

I decided to take a risk. I held my breath and opened the door to the outside and close it quickly. The fury is closing onto me in slow motion. I waited for the fury to come close and as it did, I quickly drew my sword and sliced the fury's right wing. The fury began to get unstable in flight, and fell to the ground.

I slowed time down. I always wanted to see how monsters go in slow-motion in real life, not just in movies.

The fury went down, and I stabbed the fury in the back, and the fury disintegrated.

I went back to the house, and quickly opened the door, get inside, and shut it. There, I gasped for breath since I had been holding it at my time outside.

"You okay?" Sophia asked. I nodded and stumbled. Sophia caught me as I looked at her. Wow, I could be having a romance right now.

"Yes, I'm okay." I told her.

I looked at the window, and I my stomach felt queasy, because there's a horde of monsters coming towards us, and the red snowflakes appeared to strengthen the monsters.
