Also a lot of people have been talking about trying to get a better artist but it seems impossible, have posted job searches and everything and still can't find anyone.

When Tom opened his eyes, he found himself looking at a bright white light.
“What happened? Where are we?” Tom asked, looking around to see Kai. “Where is Gary?”
“Who knows?” Innu shrugged his shoulders. “We followed you hoping to find him, but instead we nearly lost our lives. Do you have any idea how often I nearly died today?!”
On further inspection, Tom realised that he and his schoolmates were in what looked like a pol...
2021-11-18 14:03:44 +0000 UTC View PostAs expected, after the Altered Hunter had brought out his sword with the heated edge, the larger Werewolf became far more cautious. It leapt up onto one of the large trees and climbed it midway, continuously growling at the hunter, as if trying to intimidate him. However, what it was really trying to do was wait for its wound to heal. It seemed to take longer than other injuries. Even when the Werewolf stopped bleeding there was still a burn mark that remained on its chest.
The two strange people who Tom suspected to be Altered Hunters charged forward without hesitation. The others couldn’t believe that there were people like this that actually existed.
They had all heard about the Altered Hunters’ existence through the news every now and then, but the stories about them didn’t really seem realistic. As an organisation that seemed to be against the very existence of Altered, how were they able to match those superhuman people?
Right now, they w...
2021-11-17 14:43:24 +0000 UTC View PostThe two werewolves were staring at each other, before they both slowly started to move up and down, seemingly waiting for the other to make the first move. As the group of teenagers looked at the two mythological creatures, they started to notice some small differences between the two.
The most obvious one was their difference in stature. The one that had just arrived was about one head shorter than the first werewolf and while it was also muscular, it seemed to be more lea...
2021-11-17 02:39:21 +0000 UTC View PostThere were a lot of dangers that everyone needed to look out for in a Tier-3 town like Slough. The teenagers were being cautious, yet each one of them was quite confident in their own skills, believing that no matter what they would face today, that they would be able to deal with it.
However, that was limited to their own common sense. A werewolf had naturally not been one of the things any one of them had been prepared to ever see in their life, much less tonight. As such, they had al...
2021-11-16 15:01:08 +0000 UTC View PostAs soon as Gary saw those messages appear, he started to feel a change in his body. It began with his heart beat. Someone seemed to have put the intensity all the way to the maximum setting. When he checked his status in the system he saw that the BPM was constantly rising, already having surpassed 200 BPM with no signs of stopping.
It felt like his organ was trying its best to either burst through his chest or jump out of his mouth. The increased oxygen flow inside his body ...
2021-11-15 23:16:37 +0000 UTC View PostIt was only for a split second that Tom had taken his eyes off of Gary to look into the direction that strange howl had come from. He looked everywhere on the field for his best friend, even asking some of the nearby players but none of them had seen him disappear. Their focus had been on Blake and then on the wolf howl.
‘That definitely sounded like a wolf… Don’t tell me that was the other werewolf? Was that howl meant to be some sort of challenge? …please be safe,...
2021-11-15 15:47:41 +0000 UTC View PostThe look in Tom's eyes said it all. Gary saw the way he had been staring at him. No matter what had happened so far, his best friend had never pulled a face quite like this before.
‘Stop it! Stop it! Why are you looking at me like that!’ Gary thought.
At the moment, Tom wanted to reach out to Gary but his body froze up. He didn’t know what to do as it was the first time he had actually seen his best friend slightly change. Sure the other had told him what he was, but seeing ...
2021-11-15 01:40:38 +0000 UTC View PostMoments before the incident, up in the stands, Xin noticed something strange in the stand opposite theirs. One of the Eton High students had a hand-held camera in his hand, and was filming the entire match. Next to him was another student with a laptop who seemed completely focused on it and nothing else around him.
“Doesn't that look a bit strange? They’ve been filming since the start of the match.” Xin mentioned, as something was giving her the feeling that things wer...
2021-11-14 14:13:18 +0000 UTC View PostGary had already been doing well in the game without having to use charging heart. This was mostly due to the power of the moon; otherwise, he would have still fallen slightly behind the athletic students, but now with Charging heart active and the power of the moon Gary was at his strongest.
Since Blake had luckily managed to score a point, it was time for Westbridge to kick off the ball again.
“Coach Root, let me do it.” Gary raised his hand asking for permission.
With...
2021-11-14 02:17:33 +0000 UTC View PostBefore the match was about to start, Gary wanted to check on a couple of things. For one his growing headache that just wouldn't go away. He tried his best to hide it, as he didn’t want Tom to notice, else his best friend would just nag him even more, only worsening his headache.
[7 hours until the next full moon]
This was the reason for his headache, and this wasn’t even the first notification either. Around five hours ago a message had popped up informing him th...
2021-11-14 02:16:47 +0000 UTC View PostKai was walking up the stairs, looking at the black face of his golden rim watch. He could see that he still had a few hours until the match. All Westbridge students had been invited to watch their school’s Rugby team compete against Eton High’s and for certain reasons the high schooler wanted to make it back before it would start.
The reason why Kai had to worry about time was because at this very moment, even though it was a school day, he was at a different school. What’s more,...
2021-11-13 13:26:51 +0000 UTC View PostEton High had clubs just like every other school. There were a couple of students who had entered the Rugby club and had changed everything in the school. Although it was Sunday, they had a ‘special training’ to get ready for tomorrow’s match against Westbridge.
Out on the field there were two boys who stood in front of everyone rather than a teacher. They were tall, and had a small frame with both hands in their pockets. One had long red hair that was tied up in a ponytail and by...
2021-11-13 01:54:09 +0000 UTC View PostSix guys from Eton High had suddenly surrounded Gary and Innu and it was clear that they hadn’t come for a simple talk. However, Gary had instantly noticed that something was different about this attack compared to the last one. These guys were nowhere near as bulky and as it turned out, they were far worse in a fight.
‘They don’t seem to belong to the Rugby club. Were they just regular students at Eton High? Did I mess them up so badly that they’re now scared of me...
2021-11-12 14:42:47 +0000 UTC View PostWaking up the next morning, Gary was still thinking about what he could do to get stronger. He only had five more days left until the full moon and from what he had discovered his ways to get stronger were very limited.
The high schooler could try and increase his stats naturally in the gym, though there were two problems with that approach. For one, his Strength and Endurance had grown, so he estimated that it would take for them to grow, which was e...

It had already been an eventful day for Gary, but there were still many things he needed to do even after facing Billy. First things first, it was time to regain some Energy. To do that the high schooler visited his new favourite alleyway. The number of rats didn’t seem to have reduced, something he was actually thankful for.
His natural speed was slow, making it hard to catch the critter. Fortunately, Charging Heart allowed him to turn the tables. He could also catch sev...
2021-11-11 10:40:15 +0000 UTC View PostThe ‘Basement’ was a popular nightclub in Slough’s town centre, yet today its front door had a sign that read ‘Closed’. However, the guards around it were telltale signs that something was going on inside. Unbeknownst to the normal populace, the club was merely a front for the Underdogs, one of the town’s most successful gangs.
What’s more the Basement wasn’t the only shop that would remain closed that day. Damion Hawk had used his influence to make all the shops within ...
2021-11-11 03:27:50 +0000 UTC View PostThe police arrived at the scene and quickly went to work. The teaching faculty provided them with a classroom so that they could start taking the students' testimonies about the events that had occurred. Although none of them had outright been able to tell that it had been Billy Bruntin, the police were confident that it was him based on the few details they had received.
The only thing they couldn’t really figure out was who this hooded stranger was that had arrived and ap...
2021-11-10 14:23:07 +0000 UTC View PostIt took a second for Innu to realise that the hooded person was Gary, until he saw his green hair from the hood. Although he did text him like he requested, he didn’t think that his supposed gang leader would be so desperate to find such a person that he had come all the way to his school. For that matter he didn’t exactly recall telling Gary what school he went to.
‘Wait, does he think he can take on this guy? He wasn’t here when Billy came in and wreaked havoc!’ 2021-11-10 09:01:59 +0000 UTC View Post
Perhaps if Gary had been paying more attention he would have never allowed the other student to get a hit in that easily. The most surprising thing to Gary was how much it had hurt.
Endurance had always been his strongest stat and it had increased twice during his recent fights. On top of that he had the power of the moon helping him, yet that one strike had taken off nearly as much Health as Barry’s brick attack.
“I'm surprised someone like you is still standing ...
2021-11-09 19:03:34 +0000 UTC View PostAfter receiving the text, Gary immediately asked for more information. He needed to know whether Innu had actually run into or simply found Billy. Unfortunately, he didn’t get any answers. He wasn’t even left at ‘read’, making the high schooler start to worry.
Not knowing anything about his fellow gang member, Gary texted the only person who would be able to know anything about it, Kai. When he asked his upperclassmen where Innu would be right now, the answer was so o...
2021-11-09 01:01:33 +0000 UTC View PostGary still had three days of exclusion left, which meant that today was another day that he was technically free to do as he wished until practice time, while everyones else his age would be stuck in school. Most kids would have enjoyed this time off, yet he couldn’t.
For one, Gary didn’t want to worry his mother, so he had to keep up the ruse that everything was fine by leaving for school. However, even if that hadn’t been the case, the high schooler had far too much...
2021-11-08 14:15:30 +0000 UTC View PostDue to the events that had occurred, Gary had trouble sleeping. It was a little past midnight, and he had already received his usual message stating that it would be the full moon in six days.
'If I can't find a way to get rid of these markings, in six days time, both Barry and Gil could be in serious trouble.' was Gary's thought.
A few seconds later, after having this thought, Gary had received the other message about receiving stat points for successfully having gotte...
2021-11-08 01:20:32 +0000 UTC View PostToday was the second night that Tom had to stay inside the hospital. Following the advice of their school nurse, Tom had made an appointment and given his situation he didn’t have to wait for long. He had quickly been assigned a private room, though he ended up having to sleep over on Monday since the surgeon didn’t have any gap to get to him.
Tom didn’t mind that. The hospital staff had given him enough pain killers that he had easily slept until Tuesday morning. Whe...
2021-11-07 14:41:09 +0000 UTC View PostGary wasn’t sure how many times he had to close his eyes and just continue chewing, but eventually the message that he had been waiting for finally arrived.
[Your Energy has been fully restored]
[110/110 Energy]
The alleyway had been filled with rats that Gary could use, and after consuming the first one his Energy was being replenished allowing to catch more. Three rats later and his emergency healing finally kicked in, though it meant that he would have to eat...
2021-11-07 00:07:01 +0000 UTC View Post[You have been stabbed!]
[- 30 HP]
[70/100 HP]
[While your Energy is extremely low, emergency healing function is unavailable!]
[You are bleeding!]
[Your Health will decrease by - 4 HP per minute until you’re patched up or healed.]
Gary didn’t need the system to figure out that he had been stabbed, it was a memory that he would probably never be able to forget. The really worrying part were the messages following it. Unless Gary could someh...
2021-11-06 14:54:04 +0000 UTC View PostGary had left as soon as rugby practice was over, following an unexpected message on his secret phone from an unknown number. Given the content of the message it wasn’t hard to figure out who it was though.
[Kai gave me this number and told me to text you. He told me that the two of you have already talked about our little Billy situation and our upcoming tag team match. I’ll be waiting here.] The sender had attached his location on the map, marking his position.
Honestly, Gar...
2021-11-06 00:22:30 +0000 UTC View PostLearning a bit more from Kai about the other victims, it seemed like Billy had been going through his revenge list by order of those he had lost to. Which in turn meant that Innu was next.
‘From what I remember Innu is quite the strong fighter. He might be able to handle himself in most situations, but that’s with a human as his opponent, not against a werewolf.’ Gary thought. ‘It's also possible that he’s gotten stronger because of the moon like me, and to top that off, he’...
2021-11-05 14:18:48 +0000 UTC View PostAfter reading the message, Gary had worrying thoughts going through his head. Why would Kai bring up Billy now of all times? Had he somehow discovered that all of those recent murders might have been his doing? Or could he have encountered a hairy creature at night and linked the whole mess back to him?
‘Hang on, if Kai has actually found some lead on Billy, then that would be a great thing! I might finally be able to track him down and stop him before he can do any more ha...
