A Search For The Unknown

The lab

Even after the thing that was growling had stopped growling and it sounded like it had run off the large black dog stayed between Asher and the woods. The large black dog stopped barking and growling at the thing in the woods but stayed in a protective stance in front of Asher. A man started running toward them from somewhere inside the facility. The man ran up to the large black dog.

“So this is where you ran off to Fang. You know you shouldn’t run away when we are in the middle of your training. At this rate we won’t complete your training on time and they will sell you. Do you want to end up someone’s pet?”

The black dog looked up at Asher and then looked at the man who ran up to him and stepped toward the man but then looked at Asher as he walked away.

The man looked at Thomas.

“I’m so sorry sir I’m training one of the new dogs shipped in from the breeding facility and he got away from me. I promise I won't let it happen again. This one is a little more strong willed then the other new dogs, that's why I’m training him myself.”

Thomas looked at the dog and then at the man and smiled

“That's quite alright to be honest this dog might have just saved us from something, there was something in the wood growling at us and your trainee scared it off.”

The man looked at Thomas uneasily with a bit of concern on his face.

“Well thank you for being understanding , sir.”

Thomas looked at the dog again.

“Is this one of our special dogs from the witch breeders?”

“Yes sir, he is from the first patch of the dogs from the witch breeders, he was the one they had the highest hopes for him and strongly believed that he would be a success, but he has been very bullhead about me training him. He just doesn’t seem very interested in being trained by me.”

“Hmm then maybe you should let someone else train him. This dog is supposed to have magical powers. Maybe we should have a witch train him or someone with a more loving touch rather than your strict training. I think you should have a different trainer try with him if he doesn't improve then we will mark him as a failure and hope that the other dogs do better. I have high hopes for the witch breeder program and having security dogs with magic abilities.”

“Yes sir I will speak with the other trainers and see if one is of witch blood or if we have an witchs that are trainers to try training him and try to see if they can talk to him to see why he won't listen to me.”

The man started to walk away form the group as he walked away he whistled at Fang to follow him but Fang was staring at Asher. In his head Asher hears “I’m here if you need my help again that creature out there is dangers so stay out of the woods, I have to go back with that man

again but if you need me you only need to call for me.” The man whistled at Fang again, Fang turned and followed after the man.

Once the group reached the lab Asher and Eric were informed that they weren't allowed in the lab. Max nuged Asher and said “don’t feel bad I’m not allowed in the lab ether only the specialist who were brought here to work in the lab are allowed, a lot of top secret stuff is made in there and the winters don’t want any of their competition get a hold of there secret tech and recipes.”

“I find it weird that they don’t let anyone in the lab.”

“It's not that uncommon a lot of companies don’t allow people into their labs to stop their competition from finding out their recipes and technological secrets. Business is very cutthroat and all companies do whatever they can to protect their profit and productivity. It’s just how adults are you will learn one day unfortually.”

“If you say so, do you know what has happened here? Is there anything left behind from what the thing has done here?”

Max rubbed the back of his neck and sighed.

“No I don't, we have to wait for the head scientist to come out and talk to us, they are deciding right now if they will allow us to see their security cameras or not.”

Max goes to the door and pushes a button on the door and looks up at a camera on the wall.

“Hello you guys, I’m here with the hunters to see what has happened at the lab, can you please send out the one who is going to talk to us about and show us what the supernatural creature has done here and the damage it has caused.”

After about a half an hour the door a tall man in a lab coat walks out. The man has black hair that sticks out everywhere, he has dark bags under his eye that are a piercing yellow. He looked at the group and his eyes stopped on Thomas.

“Hello little brother, I apologize for making you and your friends wait. We are very busy right now and there was a big debate about how much we should allow the hunters to see and to know about what goes on here. I hope you understand and the wait wasn’t too much of an inconvenience for you.”

“It is alright brother, we understand that you are very busy right now with a big deadline coming up. Plus we sprange this tour on you and I am also aware that your lab is not working at full power with the damage the spirit has caused to your facility. Thank you for taking time from your busy schedule to see us and to show us what damage has been caused here.”
