My Werewolf System

Chapter 288 - Anti Hero

The police had been somewhat quick to respond, which was a little strange even for them. However, they had managed to go to most of the areas where the current troubles were occurring. Still, their tactics were questioned by many of the people who had been walking by.

For one of the areas, the police had surrounded the high street with cars, on all exits around in a circle. Simply put, they weren't letting these creatures get out from the areas. Hoping to minimise the damage to the outside, yet not a single one of them had entered the place themselves.

On the edge of the road, where the police cars had blocked the road, a large van had pulled up and on the side, it had the words channel five TV crew filmed. Immediately, coming out of the car quickly, was a cameraman, and a female presenter dressed in a suit. It was light blue in colour. She had short hair that was tied back, and a stunning earring made of diamonds.

Of course, like with most presenters for a TV channel, they were quite the looker. It always seemed to earn them more ratings, especially when Miss Kate Dar was on the scene. Immediately, she didn't shy away as the camera was seen rolling with the red dot, and got out her microphone, pointing it towards the officers.

“Officer, I’m Kate Dar from Channel Five News. I’ve come here hoping that you would be able to answer some of the public's questions.” Kate stated her reason for being here, and straight away the police officer looked nervous and the others standing around were wondering what to do.

The problem was they were already having trouble trying to stop the general public from entering. There were many still inside establishments and buildings held up, and their family members had appeared, hoping to get them out of such a dangerous place.

“Many videos of the strange creatures that are assumed to be crazed Altered have appeared online, but what the people want to know is what is your plan to get the civilians out of these areas.” The reporter pushed on. “As far as we know, none of the police have acted, and seeing what the situation is like it seems to be true. What do you have to say to that?”

As they were asking the questions, screams were still being heard from behind. Zooming in on the camera, they could see countless dead bodies, mainly men in suits who looked to have been protecting the people so far.

However, they were unable to put up much of a fight against the creatures, and now it looked like the crazed Altered were going for their next target. They were bashing against the door, trying to break the glass windows of the shops and more.

“HELP THEM PLEASE!” The group of people watching were shouting.

Once again, Kate shoved the microphone up to the officer's face.

“Look, we are here to contain the area of damage.” The officer replied. “And stop people like you from getting inside. This is the best option, if we go in and end up losing our lives, then these creatures will kill all of you as well!”

Some officers shook her head at the comment. They had been trained how to deal with press in certain situations, but they understood. The pressure was getting to them. They had been watching the creatures fight against what they assumed were gangsters.

They had the same set of weapons as the police officers, but they actually had more members and were quite skillful using their tools, yet they were still killed. Furthermore, they could see that the creatures seemed to be attracted to whatever human was closest to them. If they went in, they would just be sacrificing themselves for no reason.

At least they could get in their cars and create a barrier of some sort until a solution came to them.

“Are you saying that the police are incompetent to solve this situation? If the police can't solve it, then who can?” Kate asked.

At that moment, a hooded figure was slowly pushing people out of the way as they walked through the crowd of people. His head was held down, and he was dressed in all black. Eventually, he had got to the front and was just a little away from where the reporter and police officer were.

“Step back, this is a restricted area, no one is allowed past this point!” The police officer shouted, but it didn’t seem to slow down the stranger's pace.

Seeing what was going on right now, Kate pointed at her camera man towards the commotion, she had a feeling that something was about to happen.

“Let me through.” The voice said. It was slightly altered and when the hooded man lifted his head, the police officer could see who it was straight away. It looked like he was ready to yell, but before he could, his mouth was grabbed by a hand, and the next second he was kneed in the stomach and thrown behind him.

Two more officers stood in the robbed man's way, pulling out their batons. A swing was made, but it was easily avoided, and the hooded man quickly kicked the back of his leg making him fall, before spinning and hitting the back of his head.

The other officer went to swing as well, but the man was able to grab the person's wrist before he could swing it and twisted it on the ground. Before kicking him hard in the stomach as well.

“Get out of my way, you guys aren’t the ones that I’m here for.” The man stated, walking forward.

Quickly, seeing an opportunity due to the injured police officers, Kate, and her cameraman ran off through the gap, continuing to film the stranger. The rest of the police quickly regrouped, stopping the rest from charging in.

The next second, though, the hooded man pulled out two swords from his side as he was ready to charge in.

“It's an Altered Hunter.” Kate gasped.
