One of the reasons hunters are advised to stay close and keep communication was because of situations like this, where a small weak team would encounter something tougher than they could handle.
Right now the legion merged up with the hunters "E UNIT" to go out on a hunt. And this unit is being led by captain zayn, a tall muscular man in his early thirties who wields a shovel like weapon.
" OK guys ...we might not be able to handle this one...but I already called in informing them about the current situation...so we just gotta try to hang on until help arrives"...
Even as these very words left his mouth he wasn't he believed himself that they could last talk more of the team he led.
" we've gotta help Blair"...Mia shouted..
And almost instantly one of the men from the original "E UNIT" led by zayn had swooped into action running past everyone so quick it startled them all..
The man who had just ran past them was "Senior Jake", as he would like to be called. He was one of those respected few amongst the low ranked by the higher ranked units within the veteran frontliners. Several approach to recruit this man to their team had failed. His response every time would be
" I have a duty to protect the weak"
Making his way to Blair, he picked him up like a sack of potato and tossed him over his shoulder as he turned back to start running .But that's when the most unexpected thing happened.
The beast that was apparently far away from them had closed in far quicker than they could imagine. And with a single leap it had made it directly above the the two's heads landing right between the two parties.
At the back what the others could see was a huge 15 foot tall wolf like creature with tails that hard dreadful looking spikes attached to them..
They were all forced to take a step back. The idea of running suddenly became their last and most stupid option as they knew turning their backs would seal their fate.
At the front of the creature the two looking at it after Senior Jake had dropped Blair to the side as he knew this wasn't going to be an easy battle...
Blair crawling away as his leg was still broken
" Is that a wolf or a bear?"...Blair asked in a frightened toned...
" Those men weren't lying"...Senior Jake Said while gulping and drawing out his blades that had an awkward bend at the tip that made it look like a sickle..
" listen kid ....whatever you do don't leave my side".. Senior Jake said...
After seeing the man in front draw his weapon, as if in response to the challenge the wolf let out hot air from its nostrils and charged forward. Getting ready senior Jake was ready to use his speed to his advantage. He stood waiting for the right moment to move as he knew it required impeccable timing and calculation.
But just as everything looked like it was all planned out the wolf suddenly grew faster in speed and made a swipe aiming at senior Jake..
" Those claws are just too..i can't dodge this attack..its covering too much area...I'll just have to take the hit".. He thought to himself as he readied his sickle like weapon and crossed them making an X like shape ready to take the hit head on..
And then for a few seconds everywhere became silent. They just couldn't believe what just happened.
On the floor laid senior Jake's body...no ..half of his body as the other half flew to who knows where..
The weapons were sliced clean off like it was knife passing through butter ...
And just then the group of teens did the same thing that came to their minds.

Rodney turned and looked at the rest of the legion members and as if to confirm his fears. They all had the same expression on their faces.
FEAR...!
