"Kimmon!" Hearing his name, Kimmon was turning to Tae and was had enough time to catch something he throws right at him before the three of them were standing with their back to one another, facing the weird faces creatures surrounding while growling at them.
Kimmon was opening the cloth that was wrapping the things Tae threw at him and he could see a knife in it while still on guard. With a knife in his hand, ready to fight if they were been attack by them, Kimmon was whispering to Tae or Tee, since they both could hear him anyway.
"What are they? What do they want?" All three of them were being cautious and keep watch while at the same time they were moving, actually, Tae and Tee were moving to circle their own step that forces Kimmon to do it too. It gives Tae chances of observing the herd better.
"Angry black creatures. They were formed during black magic and survive from whatever that was, but they don't have any purpose and didn't know where to go, making them all angry and would kill whatever crossed them."
Hearing Tee, Kimmon was swallowing his saliva. That means, it was unexpected creatures with thousands of possibilities of what they can and can't, with no specific characteristic, unless you understand black magic, that is. They could be weak, or they could be super strong. 'What an opponent!' Kimmon thought.
It wasn't like he was been in a battle before. He might have one or two fight with a boy his age, or two, but to be in this kind of battle, he never was. But he guesses, being an alpha, upper-class alpha he was, the instinct he had as an upper-class alpha might have drowned the scared feelings he might have. He was thankful for it, and he could feel, his wolves were waking up too, growling inside him. Such a weird feeling, but refreshing, at a time like this.
The creatures were still growling at them, getting ready to attack, but they were like waiting for something Kimmon don't understand. But he thought they shouldn't attack first, that he was going with the flow. Tae and Tee knew better, he better not taking any rash action, which might endanger his own life. He didn't plan to end his life this early.
"Tae, are you done? We are running out of time." Tee was asking Tae who was still observing the herd at some point, and of course, Kimmon wouldn't understand that, like at all. A few seconds after, Tae had stopped, making Tee and Kimmon stop too.
"Now!" Tae was screaming and was jumping transforming to his wolves while at it, followed by Tee, making the first move in attacking the herd of the weird creatures first, taking Kimmon off-guard, though able to fight the attack that point at him, which at the same time, when they had moved, those creatures were moving to attack them too, jumping around.
Tae was jumping to the specific creatures, wolf-like, but it had a little bit long mouth almost like that of a crocodile and three-pronged tail with bright red eyes, which jumping at the same time attacking Tae's wolves.
Kimmon the only one in human form, which Tee had to cover for him too while keep attacking the creatures which keep coming at them until they stopped, suddenly.
Tae's wolves was standing tall, with one leg on the head of that wolves like creature which slowly turning to black dust starting from the pronged tail and was spread to the whole body. Kimmon was looking around, bewilderment with everything that happened.
All the other creatures were cowered and fall back slowly watching the death of their leader, and somehow, they were all bowing to Tae's wolves, shaking with fears. Tae's wolves then walking around coming closer to each of them making them take a step back and was looking on the ground, afraid to even looking at Tae's wolves angrily snarl at them, just like they were having some conversation Kimmon wouldn't understand of. But then he was glad the battle was over and that he survived it without any scratch. Somehow, he was proud of himself.
Once the conversation seems over, all of the creatures were leaving except for big fat bear-like creatures with sharp tooth and nails which then transformed into a cute squirrel?
Tae and Tee then transform back to their human form, taking back their backpack which they tossed aside once they were surrounded before and the squirrel was jumping on Tae's shoulder right away.
Before anything, Kimmon bark out the question right away, feeling impatient plus irritation since he didn't understand most of the things that happened. "Can one of you at least explain to me what had actually happened just now, and why that.....creatures were here?"
Kimmon was pointing to the squirrel, which he couldn't mention squirrel since he had seen the real form of it, big and ugly, turned small and cute? That ridiculous.
"Fine, we could have lunch before continue our journey, and we will explain it to you." Tee then walked to the corner which had fallen tree so that they could sit on it and took out their food from their backpack and had a bite of it.
Kimmon was just doing the same while keep looking at both of them, waiting. "Just like I said earlier, they were all black creatures that had been created by black witches for their purpose. Once the purpose had been fulfilled, they were already useless, and most of the time, the black witch would kill the creatures or let them die, but sometimes, they had slipped away and survived, that make them lives with no purpose but to be alive.
They don't have the desire like normal being, desire to eat, to rest, to mate, nothing, and the only things that could grow in them were angry, or some sort of feeling to belong to something or someone. However, they wouldn't do anything by themselves, but to be provoked on or to be lead on. That's why, when we were surrounded, Tae was the one observing them one by one, to find the leader, since Tae was good at judging. He makes the right decision, killing the leader means owning that position himself. So, Tae was reprimanding all of them to just live their life quietly and that if they ever attack innocent others, they had to face Tae."
Kimmon was blinking at the turn of events. So, now Tae was the leader of the black creatures in this woods? "And this, don't call him creatures. His name was Squ, and he could help us to show the way, especially when your signal weakens. And maybe we don't have to wait for your signal, Squ seems to know the place, well, suspected place of what we were searching for. Let's hope it was it then." Tae then continued.
Kimmon wanted to ask, yet Tee was standing up right away. "Squ, lead the way as fast as possible so, we could check whether it was the right place or wrong." Kimmon doesn't have a choice but to move right away when Squ was leading the way, fast ahead.
While at it, Kimmon had wonder, why don't he heard the voice today? 'Please don't let anything happen to the owner of the voice.' But then he wonders again, why would he care for someone he wasn't sure even existed? 'Ugh.'
