My Werewolf System

Chapter 199: The Storm of the Red Gang (2)

There was a slight pause before the others answered, until Kai eventually spoke.

“Tom’s right.” Kai agreed. “Let’s just sit back and see what they want to do first. Depending on what it is, it still won’t be too late to try to resist them.”

Although Gary and his gang were complying with the red colour gang’s orders, the same couldn’t be said for a few of the other students. While backing up, a group of those from the Rugby club, as well as members of the Karate, Boxing, and other fighting clubs had gathered.

“There’s more of us than them.” John whispered.

The high schooler was a large light heavyweight boxer who was an upcoming prospect for the school team. There weren’t many talented people in Westbridge so teenagers like him stood out. His confidence though made him shine a bit more and people naturally followed him, like those in his club and others. “We have to act now, and together, while they aren’t suspecting it.”

The group of students around him agreed, as they all nodded, waiting to make their move. The red colour gang members were moving in closer, making the circle smaller and pushing them back. The gang members closest to John and his group consisted of five guys, and one of them held a baseball bat in his hand, constantly hitting into the palm of his other hand.

“Hey, you, step back! I said, step back!” The gang member shouted at one of the students who wasn’t exactly complying, one of John’s allies in the whole thing. Seeing as the one with the weapon was distracted, the boxer saw this as his opportunity to make his move.

“Now!” He shouted charging forward quickly, holding onto the bat with one hand as he pushed it down, and then threw a right cross punch, hitting the member right in the jaw and knocking him out.

Soon after, the group of boys behind charged out, trying to bombard and charge at the rest. After knocking out the first person, John was ready to go for the next. He assumed his boxing stance, using his arms to cover his head, and punched another gang member. It was a quick one two, hitting him with both hands, but the gang member didn’t fall.

‘Damn it, these guys’ bodies are quite well-built. Only if I get them by surprise and a clean hit will they fall with one or two hits.’ John realised.

Carefully, the boxer was trying to see what the rest of his situation was like, worried about how the others were doing. Just as he was about to turn around, from the corner of his eye, he noticed a bat swinging towards him. It wasn’t aimed at his head or body though, no, it was going for his legs.

It was too late to dodge, and the bat slammed into his legs, causing the boxer’s body to be filled with pain and for him to instantly fall to the ground. He wouldn’t be surprised if his shin was broken. On the way down, the member he had tried to deal with punched his face while he was open, and soon he could feel a rush of punches and kicks from other sides as well. The only thing John could do was turtle up on the floor, covering his head.

‘No…it hurts…it hurts so much… I thought we could do it… I thought maybe more would come help us once they saw what we were doing…where are the others?’ John was peeking through his arms and he wasn’t sure if he was seeing properly, but he could see a few people knocked out on the ground already.

“Enough!” A voice was heard, and the beating outright stopped.

Finally, John was able to lift his head, but he had done so slowly, scared to get hit again. His body was hurt, but he could still move due to the adrenaline rushing through his body. When looking at the students who were behind him, he could see that a total of eight of them were rolling on the floor in pain.

Standing above them were the red colour gang members, but the one he had seen on stage seemed to have descended at some point as well.

“Look at this! This is what happens when you pathetic bunch try to rebel against us! Did you really think none of us knew how to fight or something?” Riv asked the lot of them.

By now, the rest of the students and teachers had huddled towards the centre of the hall and were sitting down quietly, shocked and scared. That’s when John noticed something, why there were only eight of them injured, despite there having been a few dozen who had agreed to chase off the intruders.

“It would have been a good plan if everyone had acted at the same time.” Kai whispered. “Too bad, not everyone is as brave as him. In the end, people are scared, and it looks like they backed down at the last second. With how many members there are, it’s still best to sit and wait.”

An attack from a coloured gang on a school just didn’t make sense to Kai. There was nothing to gain from this unless they had done this due to a personal reason. Sure, they might cause some chaos here and there before leaving, after achieving whatever goal they might have, but most of them would come out of the situation just fine.

If their goal was Gary, Kai believed that there was a better chance for him to escape at a later time. Perhaps away from the eyes of the others. He was willing to bet that not even Damion knew what had been in the package… otherwise the gang leader would surely have kept it to himself.

Those that had attacked with John were dragged to the centre stage, displayed for all the others to see the consequences of their foolishness. All the students and teachers were looking at the nine high schoolers whose faces were beaten and bruised, but they were still concussed and groggy.

Each one of them had two members of the red colour gang behind them. Riv walked to the first person on the very end and squeezed their mouth together, pushing their lips forward.

“Tell me, who was the one who planned this little stunt of yours!” Riv demanded to know.

It was hard for the student to speak, but his eyes looked towards his left, at another student, which had given it away. Letting him go, Riv stormed to the next person who flinched as he approached them.

“Was it this one?” Riv pointed at the one next in line.

The student who had been asked shook his head, and Riv continued to go down the line until eventually he pointed towards John and after a brief moment of hesitation the student nodded.

“Hahaha, this is great. Not a shred of loyalty between you all. I knew who it was anyway, he was the only one who could actually fight a little.” Riv started to laugh. “During my time at school, I met plenty of people like you. It was a different era back then, but now it’s guys like me who reign at the top.”

For a second, when speaking, Riv looked back behind him, as if he was looking for someone among the crowd, before turning back towards John.

“Pull his hands out.” Riv smiled, his eyes filled with some sort of strange anger.
