Chapter 3 - Survival of the fittest!

Commander Varun was leading the teenagers through a dark cave, and since the inside of the cage was dark he had casted a fireball to lighten up the place and it was surprisingly bright enough for everyone inside the cave to see clearly.

"Alright everyone, none of you might have ever hunted before but you will now. I want you all to be alert", Commander Varun said as they walked deeper and deeper into the cave.

Ryker was getting more and more worried the deeper in the cave they went as he was thinking, just why were these people in need of so much of them.

"Kricchhhhllllkkkkk"

Just as Ryker was thinking a loud terrifyingly awful sound was heard that bounced off the walls of the cave. "Everyone, prepare for battle", Commander Varun said and drew his great sword from his back. Many of the teenagers were in panic and were struggling to compose themselves, and while it was a little better for others it was clear that the teenagers were inexperienced.

Looking up, everyone could see multiple glowing red eyes a lnd soon the glowing red eyes came closer and then they could all see it more clearly as the fireball from Commander Varun was unable to see the top of the cave as it was simply too high.

"Holy sh*t, those are killer bats", someone shouted from the below and everyone was was now made aware of the creature's they were up against.

These bat's were a little over four feet long, with snow white skin and glowing red eyes, they help large bumps on their skin which game a more rough look to their appearance and the terrifying set of teeth in their mouth did not make these creatures look any better. The snow white bat's came swooping doing with their sharp teeth ready to kill, and soon people were getting injured left and right and within thr span of a few minutes over five people had died.

Ryker was inexperienced with the sword and had next to no idea how to handle it, but he had to be ready regardless. A bat came swooping down and he had swung the sword down, the bat had hit Ryker and sent him tumbling on the floor. It was charging forward and showed no signs of slowing down because Ryker was never able to injure the beast.

Ryker's mouth was bleeding and his body was sore, he wasn't used to such activities but he knew he had to if not he would die and in the hands of a beast no less. Ryker stood up but he wasn't charging in as he wanted to take a more defensive approach, the bat seeing this charged forwards as it seemed to be in a hurry to kill the prey in front of him.

"ARGHHHHH"

Ryker gave a battle cry as he had successfully used the speed of the beast against itself, just as the beast was charging towards him he had carefully aimed and had stabbed the roof of thr mouth kf thr bat and it let out a scream of pain.

"KKHHIIIIIEWWWKKKK"

Ryker wasted no time and tried to pull out his sword from the beast's maw, but he was unsuccessful as it was just too stuck inside the beasts mouth. The beast had clawed at Ryker's neck and drew blood while Ryker screamed in pain and grabbed the side of his neck, as he tried to apply pressure to it. The bat seemed to desperately want to pass the pain it wad feeling to someone else, and Ryker was unfortunately the closest person to it.

"No! No!! No!!! F*ck you all, l'm gonna live", a kid screamed and soon began running towards the entrance of the cave as fast as she could despite how weak her legs were.

It wasn't her fault to reacting this way as she was neither mentally nor physically prepared for this, so she couldn't help but responding that way as her expression was deathly pale with blood on her body. She seemed to have thrown her weapon away, as the was nothing on her.

The girl was running closer and closer to the entrance but just before she got there, the bat's had gotten her.

"HELP! HELP ME!! SOMEBODY PLEASE F*CKING HELP ME!!!", the young girl shouted as loud as she possible can and perhaps she had even injured her throat as she screamed.

Three bats had attacked her, one grabbed a hold of her neck, another one of the white bats had grabbed a hold onto her neck while the last of the three bat's had grabbed the girl's leg.

The three bat's lifted the girl in the air and began turning her body in the air recklessly as though she was worth nothing, and while this was on going the creature's were ripping her limbs away from her body gradually with blood flowing down her body rapidly.

"HELP ME! AHHHKIYNNNAAA", the girl's screams and pleads were heard throughout the cave. It seems no kne would be able to help the poor gi as there were still people who were fighting with these beast and trying their beast to injure and kill the bats who seemed to be hellbent on kill everyone of them.

Soon everyone in the room could feel heat radiating from a corner of the room and some of thr bat's were attracted to the heat, and charged towards the source of the light. Commander Varun was the one who was charging up his attack fireball, as he was ready to deliver.

The heat radiating from the fireball from Commander Varun was able to attract many of the white bats to him,and just as the bat's were coming at him rapidly he set it off.

Like a bomb the large fireball a little smaller than an elephant had gone off, around twelve of the white bats has been injured while many of the vile creatures were injured severely.

It might have been a good thing if not for the fact that several other students had perished while others were severely injured, it was a pitiful sight.

'Hahahahah, these teenagers will serve their purpose as cannon fodder. And the best part is we will be able to clear this cave and retrieve what we cam here for. What j came here for', commander Varun thought with a large smile on his face.
