Chapter 2
As I was thinking about the future in front of me again appeared a screen.
Gods' Playground has started! Players are now able to participate. Good luck little mortals.
"So it has started"
The next moment I hear a roar of a beast outside.
I cautiously approach my window and look and try to spot it.
"It's there, this fucker is some kind of boar, but being that big he could probably crush me like a stick."
It looks like a boar but it has pitch black fur and from his mouth rises some big fangs.
Boar outside is walking around sniffing ground, maybe I left a fragrance when I returned from my car?
He is approaching the car.
"no, no, nono, Hell no! This pig is now charging at my precious car!"
"throttle throttle... Crash."
"Ah my little car now doesn't have right front door" sniff.
"I will have revenge for this you stupid monster."
"Come to think of it, it's 12 am now but even so in this flat I live for 4 families there should be other people right now..."
"or maybe outside" I talk to myself as I hear loud scream.
~~~~
Change of POV to Old lady neighbor:
As I walked towards my home I surprisingly spotted a boar.
But hey isn't he too big?
Oh, no, why is it charging at me?!
"AAAAAAAHHHH"
I cry as I try to dodge.
"What the hell is going on? Is it connected to that message from before?" clueless I stand from where I jumped and try to run toward my flat.
It crashed into the trash can but it didn't stop it.
It looks confused because I dodged?
But after a second he spots me again and charges.
"Fuck!!!"

I'm only ten meters from my door.
But won't it crush it when he crashes into it after I close it after me?
As I check how far is it behind me is the worst time in my life...
I toppled on a pebble.
"Aurghh!"
I cry as I slide by rock pathway.
~~~~
Return to Thomas POV
"She toppled, how can you topple in life-death situation?"
"Ah this lady can't even run away. What a pity that the monster boar is right behind her" I say as I see the lady pierced by elephant like fangs although smaller.
"It must've hurt a lot" I tremble.
"Pity I couldn't save her, If I have gone there we would be both dead by now."
But as it weights about 200kg and is fast then it should be worse in turning.
I should be able to dodge it just before he crashes into me, and slash it side with my makeshift spear.
"Looks like other neighbors won't come outside for now to fight it, maybe they are scared or just preparing, but this is my chance."
"Don't think I can't even beat a boar in front of my house!"
I step outside my apartment and quietly step down the stairs leading to outside door.
Placing my ear right next to the door frame I can hear it gurgling sounds.
"Does this monster eat human flesh? No way."
I better hurry.
I carefully open the door so to not make much sound, but as I open it halfway it hears me.
"Shit, must it have so good hearing sense?!"
No choice then, I charge.
Now that I'm in front of it, it sure looks scary for a boar.
Just as we almost crash into each other, I jump sideways while pressing my spear to the right with all my might.[/size][/color]

Slash
I managed surprisingly to tear of some flesh of it but my arms are numb from the shocking counter force.
"Come here! You bitch!"
I turn the same moment and charge again, the monster is too slow to turn and I have an opportunity
Crack...crack..shatter
I kicked it's leg with my reinforced boot and luckily broke it, looks that it is a weak spot.
"Weak leg bones huh? Better this than no weakness."
The boar is hurt, now that one of it's leg is broken it slowed down, but not enough to stop being threat to me, it looks angry as hell.
"Let's end it, come on you monster!"
I charge again and step to the left, monster due to hurt leg can't turn that fast and he falls.
Best possible situation has happened.
Beast is defenseless.
This is my chance.
I look at my spear that barely hangs on from just one hit, and steel myself, this will be my first kill in life.
I rise my spear high to the sky.
Gurgle...gurgle
Monster is making incomprehensible voices.
He asks me to be spared.
"You should do that before you killed my neighbor and tried to do same to me. DIE!"
I pierce neck of the boar and blood flows unceasingly.
I did it.
My first step.
As I look at dead body in front of me excited, familiar screen greets me, as I feel sharp pain in my whole body.
I drop to my knees but keep my consciousness
CONGRATULATIONS! By killing monster in front of you, you registered your wish to participate. You are now a player.
