5 The Snakes Attack

"Captain!!" Rosemarie exclaimed hysterically as Jake got hit by a powerful punch of a Bigfoot when he was about to attack another Bigfoot. Jake immediately slammed to the ground after getting punched, he previously used his flight ability nonstop.

"Ugh!" he made a little scream as he slammed very hard to the ground, he also fainted shortly after.

"Cih!" Jade said stressfully, she looked very angry and sad at the same time because of their great loss, she then decided to come over to Jake in order to take him closer to her and Rosemarie, both of these girls were the only ones who still 'not being defeated' yet now.

Jake, Shawn, Cole, Cheryl, and Chandler, all fainted due to their respective very bad injuries, they faced more than 30 Bigfoots and this was what the result was. Jade and Rosemarie were still 'safe' because their positions were always the safest ones, Rosemarie's current skill didn't allow her to be in a real fight, so her teammates always protected her, and a similar thing happened to Jade, but the difference was Chandler was the only one who protected her.

"Miss Jade!" Rosemarie then shouted as Jade left her and their fainted friends to come over to Jake.

"Just focus on protecting them! I'll get Captain!" Jade replied so quickly. Yes, all of their friends were behind Rosemarie's back and being protected by her, although it was very clear that she wouldn't be able to protect them at all, she still did it, as well as Jade, she didn't care about anything, including the fact that there were more than 30 Bigfoots near her, she just wanted to take Jake closer to her and the others.

"U-uh?!" Rosemarie's attention then turned to some Bigfoots that were smiling at her, she looked scared because of this, moreover, one of the Bigfoots approached her afterwards.

"S-stay away! Don't you dare to c-come closer!" Rosemarie exclaimed while stepping backwards, she tried to be fearless, but she couldn't really do it. The Bigfoot didn't care about what she said, the monster kept getting closer to the girl with the same big smile.

"H-h-huh …?!" Rosemarie got more scared when the Bigfoot tried to reach her with its hand. The girl couldn't move to other spots because her friends would be in real danger if she did it.

"I told you to not come closer! S-" the girl wasn't able to finish her words because the monster immediately held her body and lifted her to the air.

"Aaah! Let me go! Help!!" Rosemarie exclaimed hysterically as she was being lifted to the air. The Bigfoot also held her quite hard, so it was hurting her a little bit.

"This girl is mine," the Bigfoot said afterwards.

"As if we will just let you get her just like that. You're not the only one who wants her by the way," another Bigfoot spoke, apparently, some Bigfoots wanted the same dinner.

"Rosemarie!" Jade shouted as she turned to Rosemarie and realized that her friend was in danger at the moment, she was still several meters away from Jake, and the situation was so messed up, Rosemarie needed her help very badly, but she couldn't ignore Jake just like that.

"Huh?!" Meanwhile, at the same time a Bigfoot just attacked her with its punch, Jade succeeded in avoiding the attack but unfortunately, that was not the only Bigfoot she had to face, another Bigfoot with its own attack then attacked her just a moment after she succeeded in avoiding the previous attack.

'Sh*t, I forgot there must be some Bigfoots that are coming for me,' Jade thought. Another attack from another Bigfoot then came for her, but once again she succeeded in avoiding the attack. She was so good at fighting, but if she had to face so many Bigfoots at the same time, she still had no chance to win and she knew this very well.

'What should I do?! I can't win against these ugly monkeys, I also can't save anyone around me. Sh*t! Where are Blake, Curt, and Aksel?!' She continued, she got more stressed. More attacks from more Bigfoots were then coming for her, almost all the Bigfoots were attacking her at the moment, she absolutely was about to lose, but the girl kept fighting, although she could only avoid all the attacks. 

Eventually, she wasn't aware of an attack coming for her, she got kicked by a Bigfoot and thrown away quite far, she got defeated after fighting so many Bigfoots without using any weapon and without using her ability, she fought them very well even though her battle with them only lasted 20 seconds long.

"It's over," the Bigfoot that kicked Jade said to the other Bigfoots after she got kicked by the monster.

"Go … just leave me here, don't mind me, you can save yourself, just become invisible and run, search for the others and get together with them …" Aksel told Curt while trying so hard to take his pain.

"To be honest, I bet they all are dead, we're probably the last ones who still survive," Curt replied, he was still running away from the Bigfoots while carrying up Aksel, he kept running even though his distance with the Bigfoots kept getting closer and closer.

"W-what?! What happened?!" Akse asked, he was shocked to hear what Curtis had just said.

"Blake came to help me fought the Bigfoot we were facing, I and he succeeded in defeated the Bigfoot, but just shortly after, about forty more Bigfoots appeared near us, some of those Bigfoots approached us, but most of them went in another direction, both I and Blake were sure that they were coming over to Captain and the others, if so, it's almost impossible that Captain and the others would win against more than thirty Bigfoots, so like I said, we're probably the last ones who still survive, you saw what happened to Blake earlier," Curt explained it all to Aksel.

"F-forty …? No way …" Aksel said in disbelief, he then turned his gaze to the Bigfoots that were chasing after him and Curt.

"Curt, just leave me here, I have no hope to be alive for any longer, but you do, save yourself, at least become the only one who survives, you're the only hope that we and the other Martians have right now, please," Aksel continued, he didn't feel any pain anymore after knowing the situation.

"I can't!" Curt exclaimed.

"Why?! Just become invisible, it's not that hard! Curt, do it!"

"Man, if I become the only one who survives, I'll have no hope to be alive either! I don't know what to do without at least one of my friends, I don't want to be alone as well! Also, if I become the only one who survives and eventually I have the chance to learn things about these monsters, it'll be useless either way, our spaceship had been exploded and shattered into pieces, I can't go back to Mars, I also won't be able to communicate with The Martians since we didn't have a chance to save our communication tools. There's nothing I can do if I become the only one who survives, it'll be just a useless thing," Curt finally explained his reason to Aksel, he looked sad and helpless.

"It won't be a useless thing! I'm sure you'll find a way to communicate with The Martians! You'll find a way back to Mars as well! Just survive first! Please, you're the last hope, save the Earth from these monsters, save the human race!" Aksel spoke, he tried so hard to make Curt sure that he told him the right thing to do.

"Dude, stop talking about such f*cking bullsh*t," Curt responded so quickly afterwards, he became way more hopeless.

"No! I'm talking about the truth! Believe me! At least there must be a way for The Leaders to know that one of us survives, don't be hopeless! Please! Don't you have to get your first kiss first with your dream girl before you die? Why do you want to give up on that?!" Aksel was still trying to make Curt change his mind.

"Man, we're about to die, no more dreams for us," Curt replied, he then decided to stop running because his mind was finally admitting that they had no more hope at this point, it was useless to keep running, his mind finally accepted the fact that in the end, they would die because of these Bigfoots.

Aksel was being silent after Curt stopped running because he thought he was about to become invisible, but instead, Curt was inhaling-exhaling, he was preparing himself to meet his death.

"Curt!! What are you doing?!! Just become invisible, now!!!" Aksel exclaimed hysterically and very loudly after he realized that Curt wasn't about to use his invisible mode, he was very panicked because they were only 2.5 meters away from the Bigfoots, it was too close and still too dangerous even though some trees blocked them from the monsters.

Surprisingly, Curt then released Aksel then threw him away with all of his energy, so Aksel was thrown quite far because of that and of course, being slammed to the ground again made him feel super great pain.

"AAAAAARRRRGGGGHHH!!!" Aksel screamed afterwards, he previously almost didn't feel the pain anymore even just a little bit because he argued with Curt, but this time he really couldn't take the pain anymore, it was really hurting him very badly.

"I'm so sorry, Aksel, you're gonna die in seconds anyway, and I just wanna die peacefully without hearing your words right in my ears, so I threw you away, I'm sorry once again," Curt said to Aksel so helplessly, he then closed both of his eyes and focuses in inhaling-exhaling again afterwards.

This was really the final seconds for both of them, and in the middle of this final moment and in the middle of his super great pain as well, Aksel was being approached by a 1.5 meters-long black snake, he unintentionally then turned his attention to the snake without stop screaming in his pain, and just shortly after, the snake left him in a very fast speed, the animal also couldn't be seen just a moment later because of how fast its run.

'Sigh, this is quite useless, I still can't find peace,' Curt thought, Aksel's scream kind of annoyed him to find peace so that he could die peacefully just like what he had said previously.

'Curt …' Aksel's attention then turned to Curt, he mentioned his name on his mind, but he couldn't do that with his mouth because he couldn't stop screaming in pain.

'Curt …' the boy repeated it because he saw a Bigfoot was about to hit Curtis with its powerful punch, and the monster was only 1 meter away from Curt.

Some Bigfoots were approaching Aksel, and the rest were only several centimeters away from the Bigfoot that was about to attack Curt.

But, suddenly and surprisingly, deadly snakes in great numbers then came very quickly to help Curt and Aksel, the snakes were also very variative in terms of sizes and species, they were all attacking all the Bigfoots and made the monsters very shocked and panicked.

The snakes appeared from different spots, some appeared from trees and some from the ground, but wherever they appeared from, they all were attacking the Bigfoots so wildly and none of them was doing the same thing to Aksel and Curt even though Aksel was also very shocked, panicked, and scared of these snakes and their sudden appearance. The boy thought he also would be attacked by the snakes and he was so scared of that because he was scared of so many animals, including snakes, but the snakes act like they didn't even see him, as well as Curt, and they surprisingly saved both of them.

Curt opened up his eyes shortly after this snakes attack, he also looked shocked, panicked, and scared, but after he realized that the snakes had no intention to hurt him nor Aksel, he immediately approached Aksel, he also made sure to not step on any snake and hurt them.

"How can these snakes appear very suddenly and where did they come from?!" Curt asked Aksel after he was near him, Aksel then shook his head as a response of "I don't know", he couldn't talk at the moment because of how great his pain was.

"Oh, Lord, I'm so sorry, Aksel, I really am the most idiot person ever," Curt continued. He looked sad because he felt guilty.

"Oh, right, let's just get out of here, apparently there are still dreams for us," he said immediately after.

"Please take the pain, if you can't, just faint already, but don't die," Curt told Aksel before he carrying him up again.
