Chapter 3 - Beast Attack

After waiting for some time, grampa Morris finally came out of the hut and when the kids saw him coming out, they became happy and started greeting him until he arrive at the spot where he usually tells them a story with a teacup in hand.

"Grandpa Morris what story are you going to tell us today" asked Kelly excitedly.

"Haha, today I am going to tell you guys a story about how I became a beast hunter" replied grandpa Morris with a chuckle as he sipped his tea.

"Wow that is something you don't hear every day" said one of the kids.

"I wonder if grandpa Morris's story as a beast hunter will be very interesting like the others" said another.

"Of course grandpa Morris's story will be the best among the ones we have heard so far" replied Jace who found it hard to believe that the story that was about to be told by grandpa Morris won't be interesting.

"Now settle down kids, you know we don't have all day here" said grandpa Morris as he urge the kids to sit down.

Seeing that they've all seated, he let out a smile as he said.

"Today I am going to tell you guys the story of how I first killed a beast after becoming a beast hunter". Grandpa Morris takes a long at the crowd with a smile on his face before he continues on with his storytelling.

"You see back then when I became a hunter, I was very scared of going out on a mission with my squad since I am afraid of losing my life, and thanks to my luck, I have never faced any beast that is stronger than our team until one time that we were sent to wipe out an area that was occupied by some beast but who would have thought that among the beast that we were told to wipe out was a fang wolf which seen to be classified as a B-rank beast was there".

"I believe your team didn't find it difficult to get rid of it with you been the hero of the day right grandpa Morris" asked Jace after seeing that grandpa Morris has stopped speaking.

Grandpa Morris let out a loud laugh when he heard Jace's question before shaking his head as he said.

"How can a team of F-rank like us be able to kill it. We quickly requested for back up from the academy which took about an hour for the backup to arrive and before then a member of my team was killed by the fang wolf and if the backup was a little bit late, I would have also lost my life"

"BOOM BOOM"

Grandpa Morris was just about to continue with his story when the sound of something ramming into a wall could be heard.

"What is that" asked a kid.

Grandpa Morris quickly rose up with a frown on his face as he look into the distance before speaking.

"We will continue with the story another time but for now, it would be wise for you all to head back to your parents".

"Why are you chasing us away grandpa Morris" asked Jace as he don't understand why grandpa Morris was chasing them away and it was the same with the other kids.

"You lot better go reunite with your parents before you get eaten by some beast" replied grandpa Morris as he was still looking at the distance.

When the word beast was spoken by grandpa Morris, there was complete silence before someone let out a scream and the rest follow suit before they begin to run home. Seeing that the kids are already on their way home, grandpa Morris quickly went back into his hut where he turn on the transmitter before putting on a headset and begin to speak.

"Listen up everyone, it seems like we are been attacked by the beast and it would only be for five minutes before our defense will be taken down by the beast. The mothers are to get whatever that would be needed to survive during the time of escape. And as for the fathers, get ready to protect the city".

After relaying the message, grandpa Morris quickly sent an emergency message to the academy before picking up a big gun that has a green glow to it before walking out of the hut.

"I hope we will be able to hold on until the academy sent reinforcement" mutter grandpa Morris before walking out.

Meanwhile, after grandpa Morris has instructed them to go home, Jace and Kelly were finally able to get home before the information that was passed out was over and they met their mothers outside who seem to be waiting for them to arrive. After seeing that they are back, they quickly took them and started running in another direction.

"Where are we going to mother" asked Jace to his mother.

"Somewhere that would be more safer for us before the beast gets in" replied Mrs. Norman.

"Where we will be safe from the beast attack, why haven't I heard of it" asked Jace.

"Haha, there are many things in this place that you don't know like your father and the rest been retired hunters" replied Mrs. Norman.

"What father is also a hunter like grandpa Morris and the rest are still the same" asked Jace with a shocking look on his face.

"That's right Jace so you don't need to worry about anything okay" replied Mrs. Norman.

Jace was all smiles after discovering that his father was once a hunter and turn to look at Kelly who is running together with his mother as he said.

"Hey Kelly, do you know that your father is a hunter".

"Not really, why did you asked" replied Kelly.

"Don't worry, I will fill you in later when we get to safety since it won't be nice to talk at a time like this" said Jace with a smile before focusing his attention on the road before them.
