"Fuck it! There is no time to act cowardly!" Aaron cursed and even felt disgusted at himself for thinking about his own safety while his girl is out there in this cruel world!
He decided to go with the second option, it is the fastest and only if he is fast enough will he be able to save his daughter! This is no time to act cowardly for the sake of protecting his skin while Nina might be out there fighting for her life!
He wouldn't have the face nor the heart to see his wife, Angelina, if he let their daughter die due to him taking the 'safe' path. He is planning on picking Nina first before searching for Angelina.
Angelina's work place is highly protected after all and he believe it would be able to hold on for a little while, at least until he save Nina and go there for Angelina and for that, he must be fast and brave!
His protective side naturally had to take over at this moment, and without any hesitation, he push onwards, his light shining through the fog.
Suddenly a humanoid dark figure appeared right before him, "Wha-!" Aaron exclaimed an attempted to stop the car or at least stop himself from hitting the unknown man!
Screech!
Bam!
No matter how hard he tried, he is unable to avoid running over this man with his car, quickly he exited the car to check upon the man.
"What in the world is this…?" Aaron is shocked by the sight, the blood is dark blue to the point of almost being black!
In all his years working in the medical field, he never heard of any humanoid creature with blue blood.
'Blue blood, strange whispers, disappearance of the sun and even humanoid looking creatures!' Aaron arrived at a terrifying conclusion…
Not only was the Earth being plunged into an eternal Everlasting Darkness due to the sun disappearance, now even strange creatures have appeared in this world! A creature that the human race had no record of have appeared!
'Nina is in grave danger!' Aaron's face turn unsightly as he quickly ran towards his car!
Right at this moment a black creature with glowing eyes suddenly leaped at him with mouth outstretched to the limit and sharp teeth that is unbefitting of any normal creature!
Aaron is unable to react on time as a result he was pushed off his feet! The creature's strength is quite commendable and its speed is terrifying!
Grrr!
With another growl he lunge at Aaron once more!
Determine to get a clear look at the creature he is fighting, he quickly used his torchlight to illuminate the beast charging at him!
"SSSSSS!" A ghastly screech sounded from the creature's mouth as it quickly used its arm to block its face from the light!
Aaron is stunned but he quickly regained his calm, the light only managed to distract the creature for a little while but it is still charging at him!
"Scram!" Aaron screamed and punch out with all his might!
Bam!
The punch connected and creature's head short back! Using this chance, Aaron stab towards its eyes with the torchlight, wielding it as if it is a knife!
Another terrifying screech sounded as the creature hissed in pain while blue blood spurted out of his damaged eyes!
"SSSS!"
Aaron is shocked as he heard this screech, while the creature he attacked is busy screeching due to the damage inflicted on its eye, Aaron heard another one! He is sure this is from one of these weird cursed creatures!
'Oh no! The one I hit earlier is not dead?!' Aaron is shocked, he remembered how his car had hit the damn creature and crushed it into a bloody mess… at least most of its body is destroyed!
'I have to create an opening… I can't fight both of them' Aaron set his sight on the injured creature, he only managed to injure it because of his unexpected use of light and managing to sneak attack him!
And he also realized that this creatures are tenacious as hell, how can a normal creature survive been crushed by a car and begin to move immediately?
Putting all these facts together, he wouldn't dare to fight these two at the same time, he will avoid confrontation with such creatures in the future unless he absolutely need to!
"Hah!"
Aaron kick the half blind creature on its abdomen, sending it skidding across the ground for a few moments but this little time is enough for Aaron to dash towards his car!
He quickly twist the car to start the car but to his dismay… the car only made a few noise before turning silent!
"Not now please!" His eyes turned red from anxiety.
He twist the key once again-
Nothing.
At this time, the mangled body creature is dragging its body towards the door while the half-blind creature is already charging towards him!
He tried another time!
But still nothing!
'Maybe I'll have to abandon the car…' Aaron is in despair as he continued to twist the keys, hoping that the car might start!
If this car is unable to start… his speed and defensive abilities will drop and he would have to face the two creatures head-on!
