《My Cerberus Girlfriend》Book One: Chapter 30

Advertisement

Roger rammed the van through the security guard gateway and drove toward the warehouses. Since there was no guard at the gate, he didn’t have the patience to get out to open the gate properly. Whatever Medusa was up to, he needed to stop her quickly.

He parked the van between two warehouses and jumped out. He rushed toward the back and opened the tall double doors.

The Cerberus stepped out from the van. Good thing she could fit inside the vehicle and her weight didn’t slow it down.

“Ah! It’s raining!” Cilla cried.

Roger pulled the duffle bag toward him in the back. “You hate water?”

Labda shook her head. “We haven’t felt rain for centuries.”

“God! I hate it now!” Katina complained.

Roger pulled out a shotgun and loaded some buck shots into its barrel. He placed it on his back and took out an assault rifle with a scope on it.

Next, he picked up a rocket launcher and smiled at it. This will totally blow the rock man into pieces.

After he placed it on his back, the ground shook below his boots.

“What is that?” Cilla asked, looking around.

Another thump vibrated through the wet concrete ground with the sound of thunder. It tremored so hard, the van shook, and it sounded like it was getting closer and closer.

“Maybe its thunder,” Katina suggested.

Labda glared at her. “Preposterous!”

Roger almost fell off his feet during another quake. It was louder than ever now.

Across the other side of the warehouse distinct, a few buildings exploded as a dark figure rose over the destruction. It rose taller and taller, making Roger dropped his mouth.

The thing appeared to be a giant fish-man, stomping through the buildings. He was making the entire ground shake as he walked, and he was heading toward the city.

“What the hell is that thing?” Roger shouted.

The Cerberus’s heads glared at the marching sea beast.

“It’s the Cetus!” Labda exclaimed.

Roger turned to her. “A what?”

“The biggest mother f**ker who ruled the sea in Greece,” Katina explained.

“He is a Titan, defeated by Perseus,” said Labda.

“You mean the Kraken?”

Katina glared at him. “No! Cetus is his name! Are your ears full of rainwater?”

“But you said Perseus defeated him.”

“Yes, but the monster’s name is Cetus,” Labda corrected.

Roger rubbed his forehead. “Oh.”

“Why did you think the monster is the Kraken?” Cilla asked.

“I saw a movie once with my friends called the Clash of the Titans. Perseus is in it, and he fought the Kraken to save Andromeda.”

“His real name is the Cetus,” said Labda. “Whatever mockey you heard from the humans, isn’t true.”

Roger knew Hollywood movies were never true to the original source materials. Giving a monster a different name meant making him sound more recognizable for the audience. Just an excuse to get more money. “How do we stop it?”

Labda rubbed her hand down her face. “We can’t….. He is immortal.”

Katina stared at the monster, now rampaging through the city. “Sorry, but your home is pretty f**ked now.”

Roger glared at the monster. He wasn’t the type of man who would give up easily. “Did Perseus used Medusa’s head to defeat the creature?”

“Yes,” Labda answered. “How did you know that?”

Roger smiled. “The same thing happened in the movie.”

Cilla clapped her hands cheerfully. “Great idea, sweetie! We take Medusa’s head and use her to turn the Cetus to stone. That will stop the monster!”

Katina grinned at Roger. “Good job, man.”

Roger held up his assault rifle and loaded it. “Let’s find her now before it is too late.”

After the Cerberus pulled the warehouse door open, Roger stepped inside, aiming his rifle to stay cautious. Half of the warehouse was empty, but not entirely. A television set sat in front of a couch, surrounded by boxes and pieces of trash. It looked like a homeless man was living inside the abandoned house.

Katina, Labda, and Cilla strolled around as they sniffed the air.

“This is definitely her lair,” said Katina. “The bitch’s scent is everywhere.”

Roger approached a table where a city map laid. He picked it up and glanced at it. “Hey! Over here!”

The Cerberus approached him.

“What did you found?” Labda asked.

Roger held up the map toward her. “Look, it’s the map of the whole city. I think she planned to summon the Cetus in the bay.”

Labda narrowed her eyes at the map. “The x mark must be the location where she went to. Summoning the Cetus there is a good spot.”

Cilla pointed her finger at a marked circle around a small island near the bridge. “What is that place?”

Roger flipped the map and looked. “Alcatraz. It used to be a prison island before the city decided to shut it down. Now it is a National Park for tourists.”

“But why did Medusa circle it?”

Labda rubbed her chin. “It could be her next destination. Maybe to watch the monster from a safe distance.”

Roger nodded and folded up the map. “Then that is where we will head too.”
