*Time: morning*

rivers are hotspot for the monsters, they are often go to the river bank to drink, and even thought Neo didn't want to go there, he need to take a risk to get some water for there long travel.

while walking in the jungle, Alice saw a round white ball of fur, nibbling a piece of leaf, in the ground beside her,

"brother look a furat!" Alice swats down with her eyes sparkling in glee, as she petted the small furry animal, that didn't even seems to care that a human is touching him

"strange" Alex thougth, he often saw his sister playing with some small pet animal in the fortress, and what strange is that animal tend to be very obedient when she's around.

furats are new kind of animal that suddenly emerged from the surface of the world, because of the change in the ecosystem of earth,

they look like a mini hamster with overgrown fur. they are pretty harmless and often can be seen in places where water is present.

this tiny palm size creatures are very docile animal with zero attack power, but they are gifted with speed to avoid predators that are planning to harm or eat them.

Neo thought the reason why it didn't run away after being touched by Alice, must be because the furat didn't consider Human as a threat

the evolutionary often catch them as pet, because of how cute they looks and how easy to take care of one.

and seeing how excited his sister was feeling after seeing the furat, there's no doubt that Alice was smitten by the cuteness of the funny looking creature,

Alice pet the small furball with sparkling eyes "its to cute and obedient.... brother can i keep him?" she asked with pleading look, towards Neo.

"i dont know...but i think its not the rigth time for taking care of pets Alice, lets leave that furat for now, i'll will try to get you one when we manage to arrived in the Fortress. i promise " Neo said to comforting his sister.

"No!, i dont what to leave fluffy here" Alice said with determined gaze.

smilling bitterly, Neo didn't know if to laugh or cry, because his Sister even named the furat already, scraching his head, he decided to let her , keep the furat.

"fine you can keep it..but make sure you dont get distracted with playing with it." Neo warned.

"yey!".Alice yelp in joy, before grabbed the furball and started petting it more, as the furat continued on nibbling its piece of leaf.

seeing this Neo felt curious, why a wild furat was so docile, so he tried touching it for once's

but when his hand was about to touch the creature, it suddenly speed away from Alice hand and climb on top of Alice head.

"don't startle fluffy" Alice said angrily, before grabbing the furat in her head, to pet it back in her arms.

Neo retracted his hand while smiling bitterly, after ignoring the furat strange behavior, Neo proceeds on there way to the river,

the water in the river is crystal clear, maybe because the factories and its chemical waste that causes pollutions was almost gone. and after years of being filtered clean by nature.

but either way Neo filled all there water bottles with clean water, before standing up and walking away from the river bank, as soon as possible.

but when Neo and Alice was about to leave, the worst possible thing happened, and they encountered a group of monsters that migth be planning to have a drink in the river,

its a group of 3 saber tooth Hounds,bthat came from the other side of the forest, they slowly approached the River, and started drinking in the river bank.

saber tooth hounds are monster, that looks and as big as wild dogs, they have huge pair of fangs. and moves in an agile manner, this Monsters have a keen sense of smell.

seeing this Neo signaled her sister to be keep quiet, as they started to back away to avoid being spotted by the hounds.

while Neo and Alice are backing away, a hound suddenly pick up a smell and started sniffing the air, with a growl the other two hound also started sniffing the air.

"sh*t...they know we are here!"Neo mumured, he grabbed her sisters arm tightly as they proceed walking away. but then Alice accidentally stepped of a piece of stick.

*creeck*

the breaking sound of the stick, made the ears of the hound to twitch,before starting to look at the direction where the sound was heared, only to see Neo and Alice running away.

*graaaowl*

with a roar the hounds started sprinting towards Neo and Alice, seeing that they are spotted, Neo didn't waste more time, as he grabbed his sister and tried to escape.

"brother...im sorry !" Alice said, with teary eyes, she knew very well that her brother is having a hard time, because of her,

"its not your fault Alice. im the one to be blamed, because im not strong enough ... but... that will change.. rigth now.. i promise you that!" Neo said with voice full of determination,

"wha-what do you mean?"Alice asked in confusion, but Neo egnored his sister

he suddenly stops running, before putting Alice and his bag down on the ground, ad soon as he did so, he turned around and rushed towards the in coming hounds.

"brother noo!!!" Alice yelled in horror. when she realized that his brother decided to attack the monsters instead.

"haaaaaaaaa!!!" with a yelll, Neo raised his rigth hand to greet the first hound that is coming to his way, with adrenalin pumping to every parts of his body, he unleashed a punch directed to the hounds head,

*puchiiiiiik*

but instead of fist hitting the hounds skull, a black bone blade sprang out the Neo's rigth arm, it suddenly appeared and penetrated the monster head, to killing it instantly.

*Ding*"successfully killed a [F Class] (Saber Tooth Hound) +1 token"

having no time to be in daze, Neo pulled the blade rigth away from the hounds skull, before branshing it, to the other two hound that is about to jump to him, with a panicked horizontal slash.

*sliiiick* *sliiick*

with one lucky swing Neo manage to cut two monsters like butter with the help of the razor sharp bone blade

*Ding*"successfully killed a [F Class] (Saber Tooth Hound) +1 token"

*Ding*"successfully killed a [F Class] (Saber Tooth Hound) +1 token"

*chaaack* the bone blade retracts back to his forarms .after that a wound was left in Neo's rigth forarm which is about 5 cm long.

"haa, huu, haaa ,huuu..."enduring the new wound in his rigth forearm, while breathing heavily, Neo tried to calm his fanatically beating heart.

seeing the he somehow manage to eliminate all the threat, Neo checked his sister condition in the back. only to see that, his sister is just staring at him.

"(⊙.⊙)" Alice was looking at him in disbelief.
