A few days later in the same park, Liam was walking along the pathway leading to the lake. He looked around, checking on the condition of the trees and plants. A small boat was tied to the shoreline.
The traces of the latest fight were gone. It was said that a beast passed through a barrier and killed a few students. There were no clues about what it was or where it was staying, all the nearby cameras thawed due to the wild fire. Apparently Riley and Damon sacrificed their life to kill it, becoming overnight heroes.
He walked further ahead, looking for the exit to this place. Something caught his attention. He stopped in front of a tree. He felt a tingling sensation. Something inside him told him to move closer to the tree and look closely at the bark. He leaned towards it, trying to feel something, anything that could give him some answers.
"Why am I doing this?" he muttered.
