Chapter 2 : Growl the beast
The morning after the spread of the source. There was a guy who is angry all the time. The name is Growl. He’s like a wild animal and growling when he laughs. That is the origin of his name Growl. When he was a kid he was being beaten every time. Day and night non stop. It is because his father is a drunk man. His body adapted to this daily routine and got immune until he becomes numb and no senses with pain. In addition to that he grew strong with the power given to him by the source. When his father came home he irritates him and started beating him again and again. Growl started to laugh and that angers his father more. It is his coping mechanism, laughing while being beaten. He is hurt, inside but tolerant to physical pain. His father’s arm was bleeding, Growl doesn’t have any scratches, unlike in the past he is easily bruised and bleed. His father grabbed a knife and tried to stab Growl but the knife did nothing. It shattered like a glass, his skin was too tough.
Growl: Are you done father?! (Saying it while laughing like a growling animal)
His father surrender and leave with shock.
His father screamed! A monster! Help!
Growl laugh continuously, he punched a hole in their house’s wall. His father ran, the alcohol lost its effect in an instant. Growl destroyed the house and left.
That day the news spread and his named made known.
Out of rage, beaten and anger he destroyed anything that he wants to destroy. Robbing the bank and kill people mercilessly. Even the cops can’t do anything.
He is a beast and Growl the beast was born.
Some of the source’s host becomes an ordinary monster they are just rampaging because they have no ability to think and the source power is to much for them to handle. All they can do is destruction. They are the low level monsters produced by the source!
Growl encountered several of them and was attacked, with only one swing of his knuckle he smashed one low level monster and the other ones are now intimidated.
Growl wiped and beat every monster that he sees. Chasing them 1 by 1 until none of them exist in his sight. Once done he laugh.
Growl: I love this feeling, the adrenaline rush. I want more! More! More!
He was not satisfied from the fight. Growl walk away searching for satisfaction. While walking he bumped into a group of thugs.
Thug: Hey what are you doing? Are you blind?
Growl: Why?! Do you have a problem? (He laugh again like an insane person)
Thug: Do you want to die huh?!
Growl: Try me you moron!
Thug: Surround him!
Growl: 1, 2 ,3, …… 20? You are not enough!
Thugs: Let’s see what you’ve got!
One of them punched him on the face but the attacker broke his own arm. Half of thugs attacked him together. Some of them have knives. Growl did nothing, he was just standing and laughing. They are shocked because of his tough skin. Their knives can’t pierce into his skin. One of the thug drew a gun. You’re a dead men! Says the thug and shot him. The bullet bounces back, he is a bullet proof. Are you done? Growl shout at them. It’s my turn now!
He crabbed one of the thugs head and threw it to the 5 who was about to escaped. The thugs are running and scattered. Growl is now hunting them. 1 by 1. They’ve reached different corners of the street. Screaming for help. People runs and the street are in chaos. One of the thugs left. It reached X’s yard.
X is currently watering his plant then suddenly on the wall a person fell down. X’s reflexes is so fast the person almost hit him but he evades quickly.
X: Hey! Are you ok sir?
It was the boss of the thugs. Help me, hide me!. A monster chased us. He is not a human. A beast! My, my men. They are all dead! Hide me! Please!
X: What do you mean a beast? Calm down and tell me everything.
The boss of the thug is Steve, he told him everything. We can’t do anything we should hide! You should hide!
X: Interesting eh? (Saying while smiling)
Steve: What do you mean? He is so strong and tough! (The boss is scared and shaking)
Suddenly a sound of heavy foot steps are getting closer and closer.
Growl: Where are you rat? You can run but you can’t hide from me!
X: Is that him? The Beast that you’re saying?
Steve: Yes, please be quiet , hide me, I’m begging you.
X: Let me face him.
Steve: What? Are you deaf? I told you it’s a beast! No one can stop him!
X: You leave I’ll be the bait. (Well I don’t want my house being destroyed after all though)
X grabbed a stone and jumped over the wall of his yard. When he see Growl mid air he threw the rock at him and shout! Hey you! You’re so loud!
