The Werewolf Hunter

Asia 1990 Several Asian children gathered at a fun park playing happily around a village Market in Asia. Some held traditional masks, other children were running around the park playing hide and seek, while the rest of the children played games in the park to win wonderful prizes. The fun park is a game reserve where families come to play games, In exchange for cool prizes. And also meet new friends. The park has been in existence for some years and was created for the community to come together and have fun once in a while. “ Baba !! Baba!!! , I want to also play.” Jane called out the attention of her father in her cute tiny voice. Baba, who was completely lost, thinking of how his family would feed that day with the little money he had in his jean pocket, wasn’t aware that they both had stumbled into the fun park. Jane dragged her father’s white shirt, pointing to the direction of the game arena where the happy children were set with their bows and arrows, ready to compete for cool gift prizes. Jane was just seventeen years old, happy, and jovial. She was still trying to figure out her purpose in life. Jane’s father saw how elated she was about the bow and arrow game, but knew there was no money on him to afford the game tickets. So he replied to her in a sorry but calm tone; “ Jane my baby, you know the tickets are expensive. I don’t have that kind of money now, but why don’t I get you ice cream .” He replied to Jane with a smile appearing on his round face, trying to dissuade her. Jane’s happy mood changed into a sad one. She felt sorry for her Dad but still wanted to compete with other children for the cool prizes to be won. Jane knew she could win the bow and arrow game contest. She had been helping Baba to hunt for bush meat, using a local bow and arrow she made herself.  So Jane sadly walks behind her dad, agreeing to the ice cream he promised to buy for her, to suppress her desires for the bow and arrow game contest. Jane and her father eventually got to the ice cream stand. “ Jane baby! “, He loved to add the baby to Jane’s name, whenever he was calling out for her presence. Jane’s father noticed there was no reply from Jane and realized she was still sad. “ Jane baby! What flavors of ice cream do you want? I’m buying you two large ones. “At least he could afford them, '' Baba thought in his heart. But there was still no response from Jane, who had been following him behind. Jane’s father suddenly looked back to know why his daughter wasn’t talking, but couldn’t find his only precious child.  Jane’s father was worried, looking around the huge market. “Please did you help me see my baby Jane? “ Baba asked the ice cream seller. Jane’s father got a terrible stare from the ice cream seller. The ice cream seller was worried about Baba’s mental health. Thinking Jane’s father was a lunatic, and so the ice cream seller hurriedly pushed his ice- cream truck away from Jane’s father. Baba searched around the whole fun park, only to find Jane participating in the bow and arrow game contest. Jane’s father was surprised and angry at how Jane suddenly found herself there after his pleas to her that he didn’t have that kind of money for the tickets. Jane had seen an unused ticket laying on the floor close to her when she and her father were walking towards the ice cream stand at the fun park. She happily picked up the unused game ticket and hurried up toward the bow and arrow game competition. Several kids had been playing to win cool prizes but lost. It was Jane’s turn to draw the bow and arrow to strike it toward the tiny red dot on the hard wall, which rested close to where the game man was standing, frowning and speaking to Jane in a harsh tone. He was quite rude and didn’t care to take notice of any child’s name. He didn’t like children and was just doing the game business for money. “ Take your shot!!!” The game man yelled. The game man felt Jane stood no chance, since other children failed woefully. Besides, the wall was very strong for any plastic arrow to penetrate through the wall without breaking into two halves. Jane’s father quietly watched closely as Jane was about to shoot at the red dot on the strong hard wall. Jane patiently waited, closing her eyes and then counting from one to five in her native dialect. Jane closed her eyes again and said some inaudible words, before releasing the arrow toward the red dot. Her force was quite weak, as it channeled towards a big teddy bear. Jane, her father, and others who were inquisitive about knowing the outcome of Jane’s participation lost hope and each of them scattered about their businesses.  “ Look!!!”, A small child shouted out for Jane to look back at the strong wall. The arrow had touched the big teddy bear and then went with aggression towards the red dot, breaking the wall it was in. The big teddy bear fell into the prize pool for Jane to collect her gift. There was an uproar of excitement and applause from observers and soon the man organizing the game shockingly handed the big teddy bear to Jane. “ What kind of child is this? “ The game man murmured within himself. Jane’s father, who had been watching his daughter from afar off, yelled out to everyone’s hearing and then he happily rushed to pick Jane up, Hailing her. “ That’s my daughter!! Jane baby !!!, That’s my daughter!!!.” Baba continued praising his daughter, forgetting that he was initially angry with her.  Jane smiled as her father lifted her, calling her a warrior. She tightly held the big teddy bear and refused to give anyone to hold it for her.   DOWN AT THE WEREWOLF CAVE WERE GAIUS THE ALPHA WEREWOLF AND HIS PACKS HABITED Gaius angrily stomped around his Cave, disturbed and yelling at himself. “ No way !!, this is impossible!!!!.” He growled aggressively. “ How can she be this powerful ??, others failed but she was able to break the walls with a plastic arrow??” Gaius felt this puzzle was too hard to solve as he kept on cracking his brain, finding it hard to comprehend. Soon he got tired of moving around the cave. His wolf feet throbbed in pain and then he tiredly sat down on his messy throne, which was covered with human skulls, blood, and a bad stench that rocked like feces, in the whole cave and could make you throw up. “ Could this be the vision I had ?” Gaius thought to himself. He became more worried, because the more he thought about the vision, the more he partially sighted Jane’s flaming face, from his monitoring right werewolf eyes.  This caused him a throbbing headache, which constantly became even worse, the more he thought about the vision. Gaius growled aggressively, still in his human state though.  Gaius was half human and half wolf, whenever he decided not to fully turn into a wolf.  His feet were like that of a wild wolf, but his body was that of a human being. Except for his right eye which was permanently a wolf's eye. Tiger, who was Gaius’s trusted werewolf bodyguard, became troubled about his master’s countenance and then he spoke to Gaius – his master, with concern as to why he was downcast.  “ My master! My lord! The Alpha of every werewolf that still stands !!!” Tiger praised Gaius, hoping for his anger to calm. “What is it that troubles you??, Tell me so I can destroy it for you.” Tiger spoke again. Gaius soon got calm by the words of Tiger and decided to speak up. But then his monitoring right werewolf eyes flashed the partial image of the vision. Gaius saw Jane’s flaming face all over again. This time, Gaius couldn’t stand the vision, as the headache became even worse. He sprang up in anger, growling and attacking everything and anyone he could lay hands on. Including Tiger who got slashed in the face mistakenly by Gaius’s sharp claws. Tiger wasn’t disturbed by his painful wounds because he knew his wounds would heal up in a couple of seconds. What he was more worried about was his master’s sanity. “ Find me, this young girl !! I must destroy her before she destroys my plans .” Gaius howled with authority. “Get every in-for- mation about her and bring it to me !!!” He roared like a lion again. “ She won’t spoil my plans of taking over the human race. She must be eliminated fast! ” Gaius spoke. The vision flashed again before Gaius's right werewolf eye, which disturbed him so much that he couldn’t control his powers. He became weak, not aware of his environment.  Gaius’s head throbbed yet again causing him confusion. Gaius wasn’t aware of himself anymore, He couldn’t control himself as he would change into several personalities at the same time, without knowing it. Part of Gaius’s powers and abilities, which made him an Alpha werewolf, and superior to all werewolves were the power to mimic a human’s personality and even that of animals. Deceiving people who knew the actual being he took the form off. But this time around the vision made Gaius lose control of his transformation powers.  Making him change into several forms, which puzzled his bodyguard. Gaius changed into a werewolf, an owl, an old man, and finally the angry game man that held the bow and arrow contest at the fun park for children. Tiger witnessed this and tried to get into his Master’s head to calm his Master. But this vision was so real and dangerous, so much so that he wasn’t able to get into Gaius’s head to calm him down.  Tiger remembered how disturbed Gaius, his master, was years ago and knew that something big and dangerous was coming. Something that could destroy all the werewolf packs, hindering their plots against the human race. He needed to act fast!
