Chapter 473 Chapter 473
?Nexus let Tom go and he fell to the floor in exhaustion.The air was heavy with tension, the silence deafening. They were safe for now, but for how long? Nexus wondered.
Reaves grabbed Tiffany as soon as she and Madeleine entered the safe house and kissed her forehead. Soon Mike came running in, a notable gash on his forehead, but he wasn't poisoned.
Nobody said anything to anyone. They all understood the grave danger the were facing. Madeline set up a small barrier to protect them from incoming attacks. The barrier would not hold for long, but it would give them enough time to prepare for incoming attacks. Nexus?thanked her and placed a soft kiss on her forehead which makes her smile.
From the ground, rising up over the police station like a dome, the bluish green barrier shimmered and shimmered like a hologram. Sparks of lightning came wheezing out! Claps of thunder boomed from the outside- as the werewolves slashed and slashed.
Beneath the grounds of the police station, the earth shook with tremors, and it sent violent vibrations rumbling through the hearts of the inhabitants!!
BOOOOMMM!!
BOOOMMM!!!! slash!!
The angry snarls of the werewolves followed closely with every violent assault on the blue green barrier. With vicious sharps teeth, and unnaturally sharp claws, the pack of werewolves huddled together at the door- snarling, growling, and slashing violently at the entrance!
Flashes of green bounced off their teeth!
Sparks ignited from the claws! Above the din, through the clouds of dust and smoke, a single desperate cry rang out from behind the counter;
"It's not gonna hold!! The barrier's not gonna hold!!"
The rookie cop wailed. Thick beads of sweat dripping across his face, as he scampered on his knees, trying to retreat backwards;
"ALL UNITS, Brace for impact!! I repeat; BRACE FOR IMPA–"
But the last syllable was swallowed completely by the blast that followed.
A single clap of thunder boomed- more dreadful than the previous cracks. Instantly, the bluish green wall of mana dissolved, disappearing completely! A collective snarl of victory echoed from the army of the soulless werewolves.
All through the station, in their various hiding places, the hearts of the cops sank in their chests. Their balls dropped. And a select few began to piss themselves.
As the rest of the zombie werewolves poured through the broken barrier, the cries of his agony seeped through the hallways of the police station, filling the air with his pain.
Urgency cracked through the air like thunder. The army of hooves of pattered along the marble floors- and claws ripped through the sturdy walls. Without any remorse, the veteran officers, and smart hunters ignored the cries of their comrade.
The shadows of their fleeing forms fell forward- as they hurtled towards the back entrance in pounding footsteps.
"Who's that fool?!" one of the dozen whispered; "Why'd he do something so stupid?!"
"No doubt, some dumb rookie."
"Aye, chief! How many do you think got in?!"
The middle aged officer grunted; "Feel free to find out for yourself staff sergeant!!"
In a different time, they might have all laughed. But the thundering footsteps behind them kept them melancholic.
The entire building seemed to shudder under the pounding footsteps of the half-dead creatures. The shrill sounds of their roars came from their guts, and erupted from their jaws. Lightning sparks ignited from the tips of their nails, as they scratched the walls.
Over the stone white building, a thick cloud of terror had engulfed the officers within.
With their arms and shoulders ripping the air, the hunters shot forward- faces pulsing with desperation, racing towards the back exit! No one wanted to die! Not even for themselves! Across their tufted eyebrows, beads of sweat broke loose, and splattered into the air.
"Fuck this–" a hoarse voice rasped above the chaos; "I'm not dying for the James family!!"
In the courtyard,
On the southern wing of the police station,
A handful of grim faced men spilled out. Hot on each other's heels, they shot out of the rear exit, cursing, and panting heavily. Some of them hadn't run in over a decade. Some hadn't as much as jogged in two decades!
But the fear of sudden death had turned them into world class sprinters!
Suddenly, a cold mist descended upon the building.
In gentle rustles, it came wheezing from the north, triggering all hairs to stand on the fleeing cops. A single flash sliced over the duplex- crackling like lightning, brightening up the main entrance.
