《I don't want to be a hero》Chapter 32: From horror to horror
Advertisement
Have you ever seen a werewolf scream? let me tell you, with all those teeth, yellow eyes and hair all over the place, it looks scary as sh-t
I didn't know what to do at the time, surprised by not only meeting something out of a horror film but finding out it was panicking
The thought of my own problems slipped my mind and all I could think about was how I could stop her from panicking. It looked really scary you know? What if it went on a rampage or something, how could I stop a f-cking werewolf alone?
So I went to her side and started petting her head. Maybe not the best idea under the circumstances, since it was like going to a moving truck to stop it, looks nice on paper but is it incredibly dangerous
Luckily, it kind of worked, since 5 minutes later she finally calmed down. She just hugged her legs while hiding her face behind them
"Are you ok now?"(Me) said while still petting it head
It simply nodded but didn't say a word
"What is your name?"(me)
Awkward silence
"Megan"(Meg) said while still hugging her legs and hiding her face
I was a little surprised after hearing her says her name since I didn't know werewolf could talk! Well, not really, but with all that hair I didn't know if it was a boy or a girl
"So Meg then, I am Sara. Nice to meet you"(me)
"Mhm"(Meg) said while staying in her shell
More Awkward silence
Hey! don't expect me to suddenly become an expert at persuasion!
I did pretty well by stopping her panic state!
Sadly, I was stuck. I wanted to see if we were trapped in our room or if we could look around. On the other hand, I couldn't leave her alone after how she acted, I wasn't a monster(even if the werewolf kind of was)

So what did I do?
I threw her out of bed. Since she was half wolf and not half cat, she hit her head when she fell down, but I felt a little accomplished of what I did, besides, her attitude pissed me off a little. It not like she was the only one with problems
"Hey, why did you do that!!"(Meg)
See? she looked more lively after being thrown out of bed
By the way, I regretted it a little the moment I did it. Think a werewolf is scary? Imagine looking at one that is pissed at you
Still, I don't know how I did it considering I was 6, but I managed to put up a brave front without sh-tting my pants
"Stop moping around Meg! We have more important things to do!"(Me)Acted all piss off and intimidating
It was more like acting tough than actually being tough, but being in front of a werewolf forced me to do it or else I was going to get eaten
"Like what?"(Meg) said while acting a little confused and surprised
So I guess it worked to some extend
Now, what did I say next? I kind of just went with the flow. I was improvising more than an actor that forgot his lines in the middle of a play
"Like finding out where we are, you moping around won't get us any answers"(me)
"Fine! let's look around!"(Meg)
Yay! It worked, but Meg got a little mad at me. At least, I didn't become werewolf snack
"Ok!"(Me) Said while acting like I knew what I was doing
Now that I think about it should I consider an acting career? I think I did pretty good then, and it's not like it was the last time I had to bluff myself out of a situation

Mmmm, Maybe I will look around a little bit
Anyways, I went to the door and after realising it had a panel and an image of a hand with a wristband touching it by its side, it didn't take a genius to figure out how to open the door
So I gave it a try, and moments later, the door opened just like that. So after the door opened itself, me and meg went outside the room to see what was out there
And let me tell you, it was like horror film number two
Seriously
But it changed from the cliche werewolf horror movie to one like Freddy
In case you don't know the classics, it is about a guy that hunt you in your dreams. First, everything looks fine, but suddenly, something goes totally wrong and a dragon comes out of nowhere and eats a guy
Well, the situation outside was exactly the same
First, outside the room, was actually a bigger room(since it had a ceiling) with a big playground in the middle and a lot of small doors and some big doors on the walls. They lead to other rooms like ours and facilities like dinner or the classrooms
Now, you are probably thinking, that looks more like another type of horror films like Saw, right?
But the thing is, the first thing we notice wasn't the playground or all those doors, or that the place had a ceiling
The first thing we notice were the kids playing on the playground
Like in a Fredy movie when he invaded a dream, at first, everything looked fine
Just a bunch of kids playing around happily and all that. Some kids were reading books, others were playing with the monkey bars, others were just chilling, etc
Good dream
Then, when you started to pay more attention, came the stuff of nightmares
A lizard thing playing catch with a guy with a bionic arm, a girl with seriously buffed legs playing catch with a panther and a boy with bionic legs, and who knows what else
Because I didn't dare to find out, I just closed the door and went back to bed
You can say something is wrong with a place when a kid finds the safest place there to be a small room with a werewolf in it.......

World Step (Rewrite)
This is a rewrite of my story World Step. Though, in reality, this is my first serious draft. The shadows grow deeper on the planet of Whorrl even as a dark, and ancient ritual takes place within the depths of The Abyssal Mouth—a chasm of both fortune and calamity. The story follows Quintin, a Grandmaster Martial Artist from Earth, as unforeseen elements conspire against him from the depths of space. *No Harem *Strong MC, but by no means does he go through enemies without injury or at least learning something. *Throw on [Horror], and possibly [Psychological] elements. *Dark Fantasy with some [Grimdark] leanings. Notes: this will be a place where I endeavor to rewrite and fix issues. With that in mind, expect revisions, edits, and other things of that nature.
