The days trickled by slowly, large lines of defence surrounded the gate, armed combatants loitered in groups, tents were set up and firearms were loaded, Upon rooftops stood snipers, and fighter jets buzzed by.
the ammunition used was experimental, although it had been thoroughly tested it proved to be too expensive to manufacture in mass, it used carved crystals found within gates, the crystals were indeed effective against monsters.
Twelve people stood before the gate all varying in stature, these were the S ranked hunters, they emitted a powerful aura that pushed the air around them, one would collapse under the pressure emitted, they stared at the gate with anticipation, they were confident in their powers.
One man signalled from behind to move forward, without looking back they begun their March, it was slow and methodical the aura waved around them as they readied for battle, not even an inch away they stopped, one reached out finding himself unable to move any further.
They could not enter, confusion spread like the Black Plague, all parties included those miles away, chatter sprung amongst each other and the clacking of radios could be heard.
One of the men that stood before the large gate raised his fist and bought it down upon the red surface, his fist shattered upon impact his pulsating red hand now the centre of everyone's vision, he screamed a blood curdling screech.
