Beast Soul

"I called an ambulance!" Alphonso yelled out loudly as he rushed towards the three boys, and they turned to look at him. "Great!" Gerald gave a thumbs up, and Alphonso scratched his head with a silly smile on his face. 

"What do we do now?" Alphonso asked, curious as to what their plan was, seeing as they were now a short distance away from both the monster and Noah. "I guess we'll wait.." Gerald said as he stared at the group of people, who were getting anxious and their voices getting louder and louder. 

"Doesn't seem like a heroic thing to do.." Alphonso replied with a frown, and Gerald shrugged his shoulders. "Maybe. But then again, we really haven't manifested any superpowers either, so it's probably for the best."

"What the hell…." Back in the wrecked apartment complex, the girl who had been knocked out by the monster's attack raised her head and let out a groan as she got up from the floor, shaking her head furiously as though she was trying to get something out of her ear.

"Ow, my ears…" She said with a frown on her face. Her ears were ringing due to the impact of the monster's attack. She slapped her ears a few more times and then began walking towards the door, but right then..

"Oh my god!" Her gaze accidentally shifted towards the side of the apartment room, and her eyes widened in surprise and horror. She clutched her mouth with her hands and her knees began to shake furiously. 

The corner side of the apartment room was completely wrecked, with the bookshelves and desk all knocked over, and the floor was entirely drenched in blood.

The girl, whose hands were shaking furiously, slowly turned her gaze towards the bookshelf, she could see a human foot that was popping out from underneath the wreckage and she let out a gasp as she fell down onto the floor, her breathing getting more and more intense.

"Oh my god… oh my god…" She began to murmur under breath repeatedly, as her breathing continued to get more and more erratic. She then began looking around, her eyes filled with fear and caution. 

"I've… I've got to get out of here…" She whispered under her breath softly, as though she was ordering herself and trying to give her some confidence.

BAM!

"AHH!" A loud noise that shook the whole apartment made the girl scream out loudly in surprise, but she immediately pressed her hand against her mouth and suppressed her screams, afraid that whatever killed her boyfriend might come after her next if it heard her voice.

"Come on, you can do it," She repeated words of encouragement to herself, and after a few seconds, she got up from the floor and began slowly walking out towards the front door. 

Tap! Tap! Tap!

The girl stopped right as she was in front of the door. She then stretched out her hand in order to grab the doorknob, and saw that her hand was shaking uncontrollably. Nevertheless, she continued stretching it forward, and grabbed hold of the doorknob. 

She then twisted it slowly and then popped her head out of the small opening of the doorway and then looked out towards the hallway, trying to figure out whether or not it was fine to head out of the room. 

"It doesn't seem like there's anyone here…" She tilted her head towards both sides as she finished speaking, and found nothing. The hallway seemed to be completely empty.

Squeak!

She then pulled the door open wide, and the door opened with a small squeaky noise, which made the girl's eyes widen with terror. She looked out into the hallway once again, this time out of fear of getting noticed by the thing that had killed her boyfriend. 

Whoosh!

There was no sign of the monster, which made her let out a long sigh of relief. Fortunately for her, she hadn't been found out.

Tap! Tap! Tap!

She stepped out of her room and then, with a large intake of air and then breathing out, the girl began slowly walking towards the stairs. She wanted to escape from this cursed apartment complex as soon as possible. 

But right then!

Whoosh!

The girl didn't notice it as it was simply too fast for her eye to process, but outside of the window, a dark shadow was approaching the apartment complex with incredible speed.

WHAM!

Right as the girl was moving forward through the hallway, the wall that was right in front of her, exploded with a loud noise and sent her flying backwards. A large object had crashed through the wall of the hallway, shooting through the layers of metal and concrete as though it was just paper. It had even broken through another layer of wall, and landed inside one of the apartment rooms.

"GAH!" The girl coughed out loud as she got up from the floor, and found out that the wall had been completely wrecked, with a view of the exterior clearly visible to her. 

The floor in front of her had also been completely demolished, with the large pieces of metal and concrete blocking the pathway to the stairs. 

"Oh no, no, no…" The girl kept repeating the same thing as she clutched her hair and gritted her teeth. It seemed like the unfortunate circumstances that she had been caught up in had finally made her snap and break down.

Thud! Thud! Thud!

As the girl was having a mental breakdown, the floor began to bounce all of a sudden, and her attention immediately turned towards the opening that was made by the wreckage of the wall, which was where the noise was coming from.

Thud! Thud! Thud!

The girl watched in horror as the large figure of the monster with wings appeared through the opening on the wall, it's clawed and translucent wings stretched forward, and its eyes staring straight at the room inside of which the dark shadow had just crashed into.

"GRRRRRAR!" The monster growled loudly. It didn't sound like a loud growl, and it was definitely not the loudest growl that the creature has emitted, and yet the noise it made sent a chill down the girl's spine, making the hair on her arms stand up.

"God damn it…" Noah, who was the dark figure that had just been flung into the apartment complex by the monster, gritted his teeth as he slowly got up and shook his head, causing dust and small concrete particles to fall down from his hair and onto the floor. "I can't believe that even after all this time, I'm still getting my a** kicked by these creatures..." He said with an annoyed expression on his face.

He then looked at where he had landed and realised that he was inside of an apartment. He had crashed through the bed of whoever lived here, which gave him a soft cushioning for his landing, but the crash ended up completely destroying the bed, which was now in pieces.

"I sure hope no one is planning to continue living here…" Noah said with a bitter chuckle, and then focused his gaze on the monster, which was staring back at him with its bright red eyes.

"Well, then.." Noah said as he cracked his knuckles and began walking forward. "What the f*ck are you even waiting for? Come at me!" He said as he began running towards the monster, which growled loudly in response.

"Kyaaa!" However, Noah's feelings of excitement was cut short when a loud feminine shriek interrupted his thought process, and his gaze then turned to his side, where the voice had come from.

"Ah, sh*t!" Noah cursed out loudly, as a nervous look appeared on his face. "Don't tell there are still people in this building…" He whispered softly as his gaze then slowly shifted towards the monster, which had also turned its head, looking in the same direction as he was. 

"F*ck, f*ck, f*ck..." Noah bit his lips and stomped hard on the ground, as a gust of air burst out from underneath his feet, pushing him forward.

"Kyaaa!" The girl screamed once again as she saw the monster looking straight at her, and then immediately pressed her hand against her mouth, realizing her mistake.

"GRRAAAAR!" The monster roared loudly as soon as the girl finished screaming, but right then…

BAM!

Noah's figure appeared from the side. Moving with incredible speed, Noah immediately grabbed hold of the monster's waist, gripped on it tightly, and pushed it along with him and out of the building within a split second, leaving only a burst of air behind.

BAM!

Both Noah and the creature crashed down on the road with a loud noise.

"AHHH!" The girl, who realized that this was her chance to escape, immediately got up from the floor.. She knew that her exit was now blocked, and so she rushed to the nearest room, which had its door broken from the inside.
