Chapter 8 - Greater Mutant

Save The Dragon! - Chapter 7 "Greater Mutant"

United States of Muricka, State of Ohio, Nowheretown

*Sniff-Sniff*

A sizeable bipedal creature could be seen sniffing the fresh corpse of a teenage girl.

"Smell bad, Ren no likey," The creature said.

Reynard couldn't be called human anymore-no, he was a mutant, 7 feet tall with fur growing all over. His head now resembled that of a greyish-white wolf with teeth like a crocodile's, A pair of deer-like antlers adorned his head like a crown, and in his forehead was a third eye.

His arms were like an ape's, and eagle-like talons now replaced his once human hands. From his bottom, a lion's tail grew, and on his back, a series of jutting stone-like spikes were present. And his legs were now hoofed like a bull's.

The only thing that remained somewhat human, were his eyes, which were still emerald green and now shone in bioluminescent light... Though his third eye was red for some reason.

"I thought Mutants liked Playerid flesh?" I asked.

"Girl smell like narco, Me want good meat, not drug meat!" He clarified.

"I see... I guess that makes sense" Even mutated sub-humans knew better not to indulge in Narcotics, so what's stopping the humies?

Well, they are humans... There was no need for an explanation on their lack of self-preservation.

"Draco! Ren wants good meat! Give Ren meat!" He requested.

"Sorry bud, That's against the Twilight agreement. While I couldn't care less about the rules, I still have a reputation to uphold" I responded.

"Reputation where!?" The enraged Mutant questioned.

"Tch, I'll have you know that even the lowly beasts know of me!" I claimed.

"Whatever..." The Mutant muttered.

"... Meat where?!" Reynard demanded.

"Dunno" I lied.

"Just look around, I'm sure you'll encounter a dead body or two," I said.

"Zerggh... Draco is stupid unreliable" The Mutant complained.

With that finished, The Mutant leaped forwards with monstrous swiftness and started using his bestial senses to get hold of some good meat...

-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-

Fuck.

Shit.

Crap.

NoNoNoNo!

How the hell did this even happen?

A scene straight out of a low-budget horror film from the late 90's just happened!

Dan just decided to turn into a monster for some reason, then viciously attacked Sarah, His own damn sister, god-damnit!

'I thought this debt collection job 𝘸𝘰𝘶𝘭𝘥𝘯'𝘵 involve the mauling of a co-worker!' I complained.

Fuck me sideways, shit like that just doesn't happen in real life!

And that kid... he just ran off to god knows where after the whole Advent fiasco...

Speaking of the Advent, that shit felt like getting pegged by a chainsaw whilst having your insides burnt and frozen at the same time... Not that I would know the feeling...

Anyways, I also have this now...

I-It kinda hurt when the system lowkey called me a low-level grunt of little importance... But that was completely true, so I could only bear with it for now...

Speaking of bearing with it, THERE'S A GIANT BEAR-TIGER-ELEPHANT CHASING ME!!!

"Rargharahtra!" Monster Dan let out incomprehensible noises as he chased me across the street.

*Swoosh*

"...Huh!?" I said as a garbage can just barely missed me.

Monster Dan knows how to throw stuff!? SHIT!

"Raugh!" Monster Dan complained as he had somehow missed that shot.

I ran as fast as I could possibly could, but while I was faster than the average person, the current Dan was from an average person... He was mostly bear with a tiger face and a pair of elephant ears sticking out of his house... Though I said 'mostly bear' he did have fish-like scales instead of bear fur covering his skin.

'Shit, Shitter, Shittest!' I thought as my dumbass had somehow run to an alleyway corner with no path of escape.

'Why the hell did I use so much of my brain cells to describe Dan!?' It was natural selection at this point as instead of focusing on a way to survive, I had instead focused on explaining Dan's appearance to nobody in particular...

"Zehehehehe" Monster Dan smirked maliciously as he had finally caught up to his meal.

"Stop with the laugh and just eat me already" I sighed as I pulled out a pen from my pocket and started writing my will on a brick wall.

"Rargh!" Monster Dan barked as he very much agreed on that statement.

Though he still waited for me to finish writing my will. While Dan was a mutant now, the manners instilled upon him by boss K-Rod never went anywhere.

After a couple of minutes, I laid on the ground and put my hand on my chest.

"T-tell my mom I s-still love her!" I cried out as I closed my eyes waiting for the inevitable darkness.

But...

The strike never came, Dan was as silent as a statue...

I opened my eyes in curiosity but was then startled by a notification...

"I did what now!?"

-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-

"Now this good meat!" Reynard praised as if he was eating straight out of Gordon Bullsey's hands.

"Ren make sure ya mom knows ya love her!" The Mutant said to the traumatised Man as he ripped his fellow mutant's liver out and tossed it in his mouth, swallowing it whole.

"T-thanks" The Man weakly said as he shivered under the Mutant's predatory gaze.

"C-can I just leave now?" The Man requested.

"Sauwr" The Mutant responded as he ripped apart meat from the bones and swallowed it whole, It was currently impossible for him to chew with his new mutated teeth so he just opted to swallow 'small' meat chunks whole when eating.

"A-alright then, I-ill leave you to the meal, hehe" The Man chuckled nervously as he got out of sight as quickly as possible.

<20-25 Minutes later>

"Huh," Reynard realized.

"Meat goonnee? Draco! where meat go!" The Mutant asked.

"You ate it all, dumbass," I said.

"Ate it aaallll!? But Ren still hungry!" Reynard shouted.

"Yeah, and?" I questioned.

"..."

"Where did man who still love his mom go?" Reynard questioned.

"You let him go" I responded.

"Ren only let man go if Ren not hungry! Ren still hungry!" The Mutant complained.

"Ok" Whilst my scion had the 'Greater' prefix attached to his official classification, which meant he was way more naturally intelligent than the average mutant, he was still dumber than a bag of bricks...

I guess it was my fault though... should have contacted him after The Advent like the others with their Scions.

It is what it is, I guess.
