In just a few seconds, they reach the floor where the ghost of Jacob is. Now you may be wondering how I can see Jacob while the others can't. Well, it's simple, because I'm half-man-half-monster I can see him, but I can also see my teammates but also monsters like those slimes or others. People can see monsters, touch them, and talk to them in any language because the monsters' brains can perceive what they say to people in the language of monsters, quite simply, right?
I'm upstairs, and my ghost friend is standing by the locked door leading to the school forest. A door that is closed for a long time, probably this locked door is older than me or Mircea, my older brother who works as a shepherd. Jacob looks at me, and he asks me.
"Yeah... I forgot you cannot go through the walls and doors as I did."
"For an old ghost, your memory is like an old man who never attended school. Anyway, can you check if there are still those slime monsters there?" I say to Jacob who decides to go through the locked door and let me outside to think about an idea of how I could enter there.
While I waited for Jacob to return and tell me what to do, I glanced at the walls where next to the locked door and bars you see only in prisons or police stations. On one wall I notice a few scribbles that are written with a permanent marker, damn it knows why they haven't whitewashed those walls so far and decided to leave it that way. "Hitler was not a mistake. Stalin was one. " I read in my mind. Then another scribble said, "Florin Salam is the best musician in the world." which is not even because he is not a singer, he only sings manele and is one of the biggest thugs in Romania, damn he knows why they listen to worse songs than those of Cardi B. I see a kind of writing below the one with Hitler and Stalin, he said: "This school is a big dump." which is not wrong, knows why I agreed to come to this school instead of going to a better one, but probably the best reason I came here was that I have a classmate Jacob and that this school is not so stressful.
Finally, Jacob appears who walks through the barred door and tells me with a sad reaction, much like the one a father has when he discovers that their son is running away from classes.
"We got some problems. One of them is that there are just one slim, and second, there had to be three in that room, so the other two have found a way to exit this locked room and scramble into the high school."
"Great." I say to Jacob, now I am going to run around school to find those creatures." I say to Jacob while I am walking at the door and using my werewolf powers to open it.
I turn my right hand into a werewolf's paw with sharp claws in an instant, then use it to knock down this door. First of all, I look around to make sure no one is noticing me, or the surveillance cameras are off, and luckily for me, no one is on these floors, and the cameras aren't working because of Jacob. Four days ago, Jacob got bored and decided to play with those surveillance cameras, which didn't go very well because I don't know-how, he went into one of them to own it and ruined it, but he shouted at the one on the top floor, to my luck.
With just one blow of the werewolf's claw, I break the metal door into just two pieces. This metal part falls down the stairs and forms a loud sound that can be heard even from the ground floor, I immediately open the door, which was not locked, and enter the attic. There I noticed with my own eyes, a slime monster walking around the bridge and looking so harmless and cute, but I had to make a decision. if I eliminate this monster, it will multiply in a few days and flood the school, but if I capture it, then everything will be safe for you, but to do that I need some capsules that we use in capturing monsters. I turn to Jacob and tell him.
"Call Alexandra to deliver us three capsules."
"I already did that, Lydia." says Jacob to me.
"Good. Where she is?"
"On the road. In probably eight minutes are going to be in the back of the school."
"Great."
"What is the plan until then?"
"You stay here and protect the one slimy monsters while I am going to hunt the rest of them."
"Are you sure you can do it by yourself?"
"Of course I can. Those are slimy monsters, they cannot be compared with vampires, werewolves, or undead, right?"
"... Yeah, you are right." says Jacob, who stands to compare those monsters and seems insecure about him. One part tells me to trust his instincts, but the other part tells me not to trust Jacob because he is practically invincible. After all, no one can touch him, only someone who is like him, a ghost.
I immediately restore my right hand to my normal hand and go in search of those slime monsters while Jacob takes care of that slime monster so he doesn't escape upstairs. I go down the steps of that floor in a hurry, I pass those girls who wonder where it burns, and then I laugh at myself. If I wasn't in a hurry, I could have said a couple of bad words to them or throw a punch at those three, but I decided to leave them alone to laugh at me and I'll remember them in the future. I run down those stairs until I reach the ground floor, and there I decide to use one of the werewolf skills I acquired from that werewolf scratch that passed over me, detecting people with the help of the werewolf nose.
I start to smell the air for a few seconds, then I start to smell the stinky, disgusting, and sticky smell of those slime monsters, but I also started to smell some tobacco smells nearby, but I decide to ignore them and focus on those monsters like slime, which is located in different locations. One of them is upstairs, another is in the canteen. I start to do the calculations and think about which one to catch, then I decide to go after the one in the canteen because it is the closest. I walk down the halls downstairs in a hurry and notice how everyone I pass by looks at me for a long time, giggles at me, or wonders why I'm in a hurry because there's still plenty of time until the entrance bell rings.
In almost a minute, I arrive in front of the cafeteria doors, open them, and inside the room I notice a slime monster walking around the tables. I look around and notice two girls in a corner scared of that creature crawling next to them. I also notice the lady from the canteen who is at the counter and looking at that monster scared, frozen, and without the power to move any body movement. I go to that slime monster, take him in my arms and before he leaves, I look at those scared girls and tell them that the monster is a robot in the science club and is harmless. they start to look easier and leave the canteen, where I also go holding that slime monster in my arms and I go to the other one, leaving the lady who serves us the food that is as acceptable as possible, standing still and scared because of that slime. To reach that monster, I decide to take it up to other stairs that are not used so often.
I only came across two who were amazed at that monster I was carrying and I told them that this is just a project at the science club, they somehow understand and decide to let me go. I reach the floor where the monster is and run towards him while holding the compatriot of that monster or his brother, or what those monsters are called in the family.
They arrive in front of the classroom door, which leads to where the second slime monster is. I open the door slowly, take a look, and notice that the monster is alone in class and walking or crawling on the blackboard. I'm heading for that little slime monster, which is smaller than the one I'm holding now. I take him with my left hand and go with him as fast as I can to the third floor, where the bridge is. I walk up those stairs, the girls passing by look at me in amazement and ask each other what they are carrying, but I don't answer them and continue my work. I reach the floor and notice Jacob waiting for me and coming towards me. He tries to take one of them, but when he touches it he immediately realizes that he can't do it because he is a ghost and can't touch anything that contains life, only that doesn't contain life (sometimes) or someone who has it is a ghost. Jacob and I go to the attic with the broken door and leave those two slime monsters in the attic and wait for Alexandra to show up with those capsules to lock these slime monsters in them and get them to the base, where Hengar will decide what to do with them.
It doesn't take long and Jacob, passing through the walls of the high school to check if Alexandra is coming, he tells me that he arrived in front of the school, we had to take these monsters in the capsule. We were ready to go with those monsters, so we forgot that Alexandra, although she's a vampire, is also a wizard ... good enough for a beginner level.
Alexandra is instantly teleported to where we are. Then he monsters them with the help of levitation magic and teleports them back to the truck, where he locks those monsters in the capsules and she will transport them to the base, where she will either test them to see if they are truly inoffensive or send them to the laboratory of Romania Hunting Region, a laboratory where monstrous or supernatural things are sent for testing. I don't know much about this lab, but I've heard rumors that the appearances there are ten times harsher than the ones we give in this city or in this country.
Jacob and I hear the bell announcing that classes are starting and we go back to classes, at least me, because Jacob decides to go into another classroom to see how things work in that class. I head to my happy class to complete a mission, and when I was about to go down the stairs, I realize that the door to that bridge is completely destroyed. I decide to go back to that place and patch her calumea, so as not to notice that I destroyed it with the werewolf claw. I close it, put those bars on, then run as fast as I can to my class and pray to God that no one notices that the door is destroyed.
