CREAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!
" Aaaaaaa!! "
The mother screamed and stepped on the pedal resulting in the sudden acceleration of the car ,the winged monstrosity after losing one of it's head , enraged suddenly roared and stared at the human coming out of the vehicle's sunroof carrying a shotgun with hate
Steven meanwhile only felt apprehensive and shook from the state for a while and yelled at the mother.
" Calm down woman!!! "
Swooosh
But he couldn't spare her anymore time as he had to look ahead at the sudden sound of the wind ,the flying pterodactyle with 2 heads dragging it's tried and suddenly closed the distance in an instant and nearly packed a hole in Steven's head, had he been a little slower on leaning back ,his head would be blown apart just now
VROOOMMM!!
Again speeding up the distance narrowed a bit before the creature regained it's stature, Steven aimed and fired at the creature's middle head
BOOOOMM!!!!
The shotgun's pellets flew out of the shell and shot through the creature's skin but didn't deal enough fatal damage due to the distance but
" Stop the car after 10 seconds "
THUK
The mother :" Huh? Wha?(looked at where Steven used to stand) AAAA!! (Sped up)"
Steven jumped off the car in the air right infront of the creature's chest
CREAAA!!!
The remaining heads , angered with one of the injured lunged at Steven but before they reached him
Click clack(LOADS SHELL)
BOOOM!!!!
In an instant the creature staggered in the air and fell down with Steven laying on the top, drenched in green blood that smelled like rotten meat he felt horribly disgusted at himself right now
" AAAA FUCK!!! "

Wiping himself while looking at the familiar notification screen Steven frown and mumbled

[ 3/3 ][CD-1 hr]
" Oh? "
' Xp, skills, levels , is this some kind of a gaming system ? '
Steven pondered to himself for a while before he shrugged it off
Screeech
Hearing the sounds of tire screeching, he turned to the car that stopped a few hundred meters infront of him, the mother then came out of the care while looking back at him and waving her hands like a hooligan
' She actually stopped '
****
Vrrrrrr
In the car
" It's a little late but...my name is Lina ,Lina Wolsman ,and this is my daughter Anna Wolsman "
The woman stated while driving, and to Steven's surprise he knew them in a way, Wolsman, that was the last name of the current secretary of defense
Steven proceeded to look at the woman incredulously
" Wolsman?...Mrs Wolsman,is your husband by chance Charles Wolsman? "
" That's right, he should be at the UN HQ today and that's where I'm driving us, Do you want to come with us Steven? "
Infront of such a question Steven's mind races fir minute, such an offer might not come again in his life ,being next to the secretary of defense in such a world wouldn't be a bad idea at all ,he had no family anyway since her mother cheated on his dad and his dad died 4 years ago, highschool will probably not open for a long time too so
" Why not? I'd be glad Mrs Wolsman"
" Okay then ,please continue to guard us "
" Mom I'm hungry "
Lina :" Anna Wolsman!! Now's not the time!! "
Anna grew small and sat back down on her seat while sulking
Seeing the dejected girl ,Steven took out 2 PITA chips and gave it to the girl
Anna :" Huh? "
Steven :" Eat up kid (with a thumbs up) "
Anna : (smiled back with a thumbs up)" Thank you Mr Smith "
Screeech!!!
Had it not been for his seatbelt he would've flown out and crashed on the windshield, Steven hurriedly looked at the front to see what caused them to stop so suddenly and he didn't like what he saw at all
Waa
Graaaa
Zombies, hundreds of them
Lina looked at Steven and Steven looked at her
Lina :" What do I do? "
Steven :{The line's not that dense}
Steven then reached for his shotgun again
" Ram them "
" WHAT? "
The zombies ,horde of them began to close in on them
" RAM THEM !"
Gritting her teeth, Lina stepped on the pedal and accelerated the car forward at the horde , Steven took the shotgun and again went up the sun roof and advised Anna
" Anna! "
CLICK CLACK
Anna looked up at his call
" CLOSE YOUR EARS "
BOOOMMM!!!
Anna :(covered her ears) " AAAAAAAAA!!"
Lina :" (Stepped on the pedal )"
The speeding car the rammed down the line of zombies infront and ran over them and those that attacked from the sides got blasted apart by Steven's shotgun

Feeling energy entering his body Steven continued to fire and after a few minutes
Clk clk
He had to throw the shotgun down, they were out of the horde's grasp now anyway
Going back inside the car he looked at the two damsels ,Lina looked half pale from all the carnage she had to cause and Anna was lying on the car's floor between the back and front seat
LINA : " Do you know anything about this whole level thing I'm hearing? "(In a panicked and rused tone)
Steven the gave her a short explanation based on what he knew so far while the latter drives the battered and bloodied vehicle
" So it's not harmful to us "
" Not as far as I know ,and you said you got a skill ?"
.....
" Mom you got powers??? "
Her kid excitedly asked coming out of the place where she sat
" It's called fortitude, apparently it can cause whatever I touch to harden by 4 times ,the bigger the object the more it will drain my mana whatever that is, it can be used 3 times a day "
" Fortitude hu-"
Swooosh
Before he could finish hearing the incoming sound of something Steven turned to his right and from the building came out a speeding object ,and in an instant said object rammed the car they were in and sent it flying
In the air ,seeing everything slow down in the rush of the moment Steven grabbed Anna and protected her and grabbed Lina's arm and yelled
" FORTITUDE NOWWWWW!!!!! "
