Chapter 7: Battle's end

The lion released an ear deafening roar that caused shockwaves to spread out. A pressure spread out which made it hard for everyone to breathe. Ryan started trembling as he looked at the menacing lion. The cranonian leader pulled himself onto the lion and looked at Ryan.

The lion crouched down and it's eyes were stuck on Ryan's figure. Although the lion was big, all big things had one thing in common. They were slow so Ryan got ready to dodge. This was probably one of his worst predictions because the lion pounced on Ryan.

All Ryan could see was a purple flash as a paw appeared in front of his chest. The paw smacked him to the floor and then got placed on his chest area as he laid on the ground. The lion started applying pressure to Ryan's chest.

Wikkie and Willy appeared by Ryan's side and slashed at the lion's face. The lion stood still with his paw still on Ryan. Before their swords could hit the lion, a staff appeared and blocked their paths. The staff pushed them away and did a quick spin.

The staff then bashed into both of them, which sent them both flying. "Time to kill the first rat," the cranonian leader said as the pressure to Ryan's chest increased. Cracking sounds could be heard alongside Ryan's screaming and the leader's laughter.

A gunshot was heard. Silence followed. Soon Ryan could feel drops of liquid falling on his face. Five more shots were fired and everyone looked at the source. Rebecca was pointing a pistol at the leader. Caylin and Cassidy was next to her.

The cranonian leader had four holes in it's abdomen but it didn't seem to be fatal. The lion had two bullet holes too. There was one on it's left cheek and another on it's leg. Rebecca firmly held the gun and started speaking.

"Retreat and I will spare your life this time," she said. The leader looked at Rebecca with fury in it's eyes before saying something to the lion in their own language. The lion took It's paw off of Ryan's chest before running out of the underground parking space.

A sigh escaped out of Rebecca's mouth. That was a really dangerous situation since there were no more bullets left in the gun. Clifford, Vaughie, Dawg and the Ai managed to finish off the last few Cranonians and everyone took a breather.

Ryan felt his chest. He could breathe quite fine but something felt wrong. He looked at everyone around him and decided to keep this to himself. After a quick rest, all eyes were on Rebecca. Why was she in the possession of a gun.

Rebecca wasn't eager to tell everyone about her private life but she did anyway. The Dawson family that she was born into was a military family that has raised countless generals and commanding officers. Her grandfather was one of the highest ranked officers from her family.

Her grandfather has retired but he still has lots of connections and their basement were filled to the brim with weapons. Rebecca stopped her story there and asked that everyone grant her wish to keep the rest private.

"As long as it doesn't bring us harm, you can have as much secrets as you need," Willy said and Rebecca nodded. Willy got in the truck and started the engine. Everyone got in and off they went to their first destination.

They finally knew the importance of good equipment and thus they decided to go to the closest police station, which was Nyanga Police Station. Ryan really wondered who the person was that named all these places.

Unfortunately there wasn't any time to think of this. Dawg and Ryan went into the police station to search for any good weapons and the others scanned the area for anything weird. The police station was deserted too.

Ryan looked around the place and it was quite messy. He followed behind Dawg with his sword ready. Dawg firstly went to the head office. According to him, the best weapons would be those that are used as evidence in murder cases.

Unfortunately, the place was messed up badly, with documents scattered all over the floor. Dawg started looking through the drawers but Ryan decided to walk around the station to see what he can find.

Ryan found himself at the prison cells and there he saw a gruesome sight. As he walked past each cell he noticed that all the prisoners were dead. To be more accurate, they were shot multiple times. He noticed that one of the prison cells were open.

He saw someone lying on the ground in a suit. It was only when he saw the face that he realized that it was a cranonian. It looked different though. It was smaller than the other ones and it was actually wearing something.

Ryan noticed all the bullet holes in it's body and deduced that it must've been the same people that shot the other prisoners. He was going to turn around and leave when a glint of green light caught his eye. Ryan though about the hero, Green Lantern, and went towards the light.

Unfortunately, it wasn't a ring, it was a watch. He took it from the cranonian's cold hand before walking back to the police station entrance. Ryan found a disappointed Dawg and it turns out he only found some ammo and there was nothing else.

Ryan told him about what he saw at the prison cells but kept quiet about the watch. It was obvious that there were already people that came here to collect weapons. Wether that was a good or bad thing was something neither of them could tell.

They went back to the others and Dawg gave the ammo to Rebecca. They were luckier and managed to find a hotel that wasn't too far. It was then that Ryan realized what he smelled like and gave Rebecca a thumbs up.

He could take a bath and after that, he wants to take a look at that watch.
