Chapter 568

Several blinks, pinches and deep breaths were let out, from everyone who stood at the side, because they could now tell that the fight was over, but it was hard for them all to believe. Every step of the way, every second during the fight, they felt like their fight could have come to an end. "Gary, he really won the fight against that monster," Ian said out loud. "Honestly, Gary is pretty amazing, I…don't even understand what happened, his body, how was it even able to heal at that speed? It was almost like he got a second wind." Numba said. The members of the Howlers, although surprised, didn't have too many questions, because they knew that Gary wasn't an Altered, but this mystical thing called a Werewolf and they understood very little when it came to the subject surrounding that. "That's just how our boss is." Innu said, looking at his back starting to shrink. Gary was reverting to his human form as well, conserving his energy but he still had plenty to turn back into a Werewolf if need be. "He seems to always get the job done somehow." With the fight calming down or seemingly over, they were wondering, what was Gary going to do now, what was he going to do to Midwak. The AFA students who had entered later, not no longer needing to fight, were looking around and truly taking in the scene in front of them. They were starting to feel sick, as they saw the dead bodies around, ripped apart and ruined, it was the same for the other side of the room. They had realised during the fight that Gary Altered form was similar to Midwaks, and many of those around them, there was no question based on what they saw Gary do, that this was all Midwak's doing. 'Is Gary going to kill him?' Izzy thought. 'He has to be, right? It's not like the police can just lock someone like that guy up, and leaving him alive means risking that he might come back for revenge.' While everyone was worried about what Gary was going to do next, Olivia had run over to the young boy who was on the floor. The axe that was in Austin's chest had fallen out at some point, and she could see there was no wound there. "Hey, are you asleep?" Olivia asked, in an annoyed voice. "Answer me." Austin opened his eyes. "I'm awake… I saw Gary kick that guy's arse, so I thought I deserved a little bit of rest." If a regular Altered's chest had been pierced by that axe, they would have been done for, but it seemed that Austin's Mystical Altered self was proving to be far more resilient than the others had given him credit for. "Midwak, is it?" Gary said as he walked over to the Werewolf on the ground. "You wanted to kill me, and take over my Pack." Gary then kneeled down, and placed his hand around the other's throat, gripping tightly. "You hurt one of my members, you put him out on display to get my attention, to bring me here, right? Well, you did a great job. I'm here now, and I'm going to make you pay for everything you put me and my group through." While holding his head up by the neck with one hand, Gary held out his other hand, transforming it, with his nails elongated. With one thrust, he would end Midway's life, and put an end to this entire mess involving the Scatterbugs. "Gary, wait!" A voice shouted echoing in the whole room, coming from the doors, and as every turned around their eyes started to light up. "Kai!" Marie called out. "What are you doing here? Shouldn't you be in the hospital?!" "I'm fine." Kai replied, as he had a serious look on his face and walked forward, hurrying to Gary's side. Gary waited, until the three Werewolves were looking at each other. "Gary, you exceeded my expectations." Kai praised their leader. "I trusted you would do a good job, but I was sure you would need a bit of extra help. I even asked Harry Cardenez to lend me a chopper, all in an attempt to make it in time to assist you. "Well, so much for arriving like a hero and have you owe me one. What's more, seeing since you did all of this on my behalf, I guess I'm the one who owes you one."

Gary's grip loosened around Midwak's neck as he saw Kai was up and moving and even joking around. Still, the green haired teenager noticed that Kai seemed to have some difficulty speaking, his jaw just wasn't the same as it was before. He wasn't even wearing a mask due to how much of a rush he had been in, making the large scar on the bottom of his entire mouth visible for all to see. "Gary." Kai said, placing his hand on his shoulder. "As the one who suffered the most from what that piece of shit did, I know more than anyone that he shouldn't be forgiven… but I think it's in our best interest to keep him alive." Listening to this, the others were left with their mouths wide open. How could they let Midwak live? He was the most dangerous, even more dangerous than the rest of the Scatterbugs combined and based on his personality he would surely come back and attempt revenge. "The Scatterbugs are a large gang, and with nobody else around, he's the only one who can take over." Kai went on to explain. "If we send our people, it will just end up as a large-scale war. There will be those that won't be willing to listen to us, even if we subdue the Scatterbugs, there'll be countless infighting. "But if Midwak joins us, and is part of the Howlers controlling the Scatterbugs for us, just like Olivia has done with the Pincers, there will be less of a pushback, and if anything, Midwak is strong enough to deal with any problems that might arise by himself." Kai did have a solid point, but Gary had never considered the possibility of taking over the gang. Admittedly, his 'plan' had only involved getting there, and deal with the Werewolf 'somehow'. Still, now that Kai mentioned it, the Omega was the only one left from the Scatterbugs' higher ups. He was the only one who knew the establishments and the relationships with the people and more. Taking over a Tier-2 city was impossible for a Tier-3 gang for more reasons than just a general lack of strength. "As if I would comply!" Midwak laughed. Gary was surprised at his reaction. Not that he was particularly interested in sparing him, but with Kai, his primary victim, being the one to vouch for him, to still resist the opportunity to safe his own hide… "Aside from the gang aspect, there is another reason to keep him alive. He is like us, but unlike us he knows far more about what it means to live like this. We have no idea when we might stumble upon someone like him in the future, but that information might be crucial in learning how to deal with others. Next time, we might not be as lucky as today." Gary had also considered that, and it was the major reason, why he hadn't killed the Werewolf outright. His Werewolf System, as useful as it was, unfortunately kept most things secret from him, but Midwak had admitted to knowing things about his evolution and more. The chance to question a real Werewolf was invaluable for them, especially since they had no idea how many were out there. "As an Omega, he doesn't belong to any Pack, so why not invite him to ours? With the rules, we can ensure he won't do anything stupid." Kai further coaxed Gary. Hearing this, Midwak broke out in laughter, sounding like a madman. The action was clearly hurting his throat, but he showed no signs of stopping. "You pups really are cute, but let me be the bearer of bad news!" Midwak eventually let out amidst his laugh. "Your Alpha here might have defeated me, but he's not strong enough to force me to join your Pack!" ***** For updates for MWS and future works, please follow me on my social media below.
