I hurried my way to the subway where my team was in a bruised and battered condition but it wasn't anything my healing couldn't handle, though I sort of limped my way to the subway. I took some time to heal all the way.
After a while I had made to the subway entrance and something about it felt ominous. There was something radiating a dark power and I weary of what had happened to my team when they got by here. "Marie, I am by the entrance," I told her through the earpiece.
No response, it was all silent. I looked around and determined that there was no one or anything around me that would prove an obstacle in my way. I entered the subway down into the depths of this power. I treaded down the stairs until I reached the train areas.
A lot happened down here, blood was on the floors, pillars, stairs, trains and benches. I don't want to detail the grotesqueness in the trains just be notable that it is far beyond a horrible sight to bare. Besides the bloody scene, I noticed blood of a peculiar colour.
It was bright in colour and that it should it was distinct, meaning it was from an angel, most notably Tarius. There were holes on the wall as well suggesting that there was a conflict of some sort, but who were the participants was still yet to be known by us. I had to keep my guard up, knowing that there is a demon lurking around.
On the tracks were more blood and I jumped on to the tracks and followed the blood to where it ended.
Quite frankly where they went was actually far from the first train stop. It took me a while before getting in through a door the blood let to in the subway tunnels. I entered and got hit with the same ominous power in my face and I know something had gone. The dark corridor didn't help though it was but only dim.
What was up ahead wasn't just another enemy this was a threat. I opened my hand and then clenched it on to my gun that had materialized. Held the gun with both hands and walked cautiously through this corridor. One slow step at a time I had taken, I checked every corner and turn I approached. A chill went down my spine and had hoped that it was the demons that had human resemblance and not the Kanus.
The Kanus are large beasts that have no intellect and just use primal instinct. These beasts can be one to two metres tall and three to four metres long. Fairly large beasts. They outer skin is the hardest to penetrate since it three centimetres thick, making my guns useless. They have power but don't use they can only release from their bodies yet it doesn't impede them from creating havoc and killing.
To account for the unfortunate use of its power, it has razor sharp teeth that tear through flesh even its own. It has a large nose that has no other use but to smell aromas though it cannot tell one smell from another. I know you are asking what makes it so dangerous, its eyes. No, instead it senses movement near it and it loves it when things move around it.
That on its own accord had made me cold sweat drip down my face.
How could I possibly be afraid of such a beast? I know you're thinking that. Even the Sinister Twelve fear them because they are untamable, ravenous beast that want nothing else than to feast on living flesh.
Before I forget they are pretty much blind and they don't have the best smell. Their skin is so thick that feeling is quite difficult unless something is lodged in deep in their skin, afflicting pain on them. Leaving their hearing which compensates for a lot of their senses. Being quiet is the only option anyone has when the kanus roam around hunting their prey.
I clenched my jaw tightly and slowly backing away from the beast. While I did that I accidentally kicked something which caused it to slide consequently making a noise that was loud. 'Don't come here. Stay where you are.' I thought to myself looking behind me to see what I had kicked. It was a small fuse from a breaker somewhere down here.
The beast picked up on the noise and looked around. It followed where the last location the sound came from. I calmly stepped back carefully and picked up the fuse and threw it away in its direction. As soon as it landed making a sound, the beast quickly turned and lunged toward the area the noise came from.
A little relieved that it was gone I set forth and continued on my search for my team. Time flew by as I walked and took every one corner that I had come across. Feeling at a loss, I turned around only to find a pool of blood behind me. 'This could be it,' I thought to myself. I inspect the colour of the blood and it matched it the blood I had seen outside in the subway. I followed where I presumed it led to my team.
I followed the blood to its last pool. 'Fuck, this was my only lead to you. Where are the four of you?' I spoke under my breath. Then I had screaming down the corridor. I followed it the scream to its source and found Marie curled up in a corner. I walked to her and knelt by her side.
"Marie, what happened? Where are the others?" I asked in a whisper.
She did not respond to me. Though she carried on whimpering enough so that it did not call for the Kanus beast's attention. I reached out to place my hand on her shoulder, then I heard someone shout out my name.
"Captain, get away from her!" a man shouted. "That's not Marie, that's a demon!"
I jolted up and away from her, grabbed on to my gun and shot her in the head. She dodged it and sounded her frustration. Before I could comprehend what she said I heard something coming and it wasn't coming. The Kanus heard the gunfire and was coming.
A hand suddenly grabbed my arm and pulled me. Donny in front of me and urged me to run. We bolted away from the demon and pursued by the beast. We took every single corner -I followed Donny since he knew where he was going-, then right through a door. After running through Donny closed it right behind and kept moving forward since we had something to slow it down.
"Come on, this way Captain," he instructed.
"Would you tell me what is going on?" I asked him.
