Three men clad in white with a red cross over their chest and a white cloth covering their face, making it hard to miss them in the night, chased after what can only be described as a grotesque werewolf that had shed all its skin and multiple tumors growing from different parts of its body.

The oldest of the three lured it away from civilization herding it to the woods where they can slaughter the abomination for that was what the ORDER did.

"All for humanity" the oldest said as the 2 with him replied. Dimitri had been sent out to protect and teach than the 2 super rookies. What better way to teach than leave them alone to battle, after all they'll learn if they don't want to die he muttered to himself and chuckled as he imagined it.

After several minutes they finally cornered the wolf.

"Go kill it"

"understood" the two rookies responded in unison. The first Valor shot at it from a far with crossbow. As the second Salazar charged at it with a sword in hand aiming at its neck, the sword cleaved through the monsters neck neatly, well that was what was supposed to happen sadly the sword moved a few inches and got stuck.

Salazar and Valor then exchanged eye contact transmitting the same thing to each other "we are screwed". The wolf came into the moon with a huge grin on its face finally they could see the true face of what they were fighting and of all the wolves and variants it could be it just had to be a wendigo. A wolf that massacred its pack for power and got cursed for their troubles turning in to a mass of skin and tumors in the shape of the wolf it once was,for the werewolves who value loyalty creatures like these are marked as kill on sight, the sad part is these creatures got the power they wanted making them stronger even better regeneration and skin so thick very few things could peirce through.

Dimitri noticing the situation wasn't as ideal as he thought immediately moved to fight with his trusted Spear in hand. He fought against the wendigo as the 2 rookies immediately hid, after all although they were called rookies they knew the state of things.

You see members of the order enjoy greatly in all human countries they can kill anyone for no reason and take anything from a store without paying of course not all do these things but if they did no one would complain as the order is seen as this strong group of humans who would rise above all and help humans dominate the world without ever giving up and winning fights they shouldn't just like in the books, those in the order know the truth, the actually strong humans don't exceed fifty, the only re humans have a huge territory is cause the other old ones felt bad for us and gave us the territory and the presence of the immortal monarch who leads the order is able to deter the other weak races.

Salazar and Valor after asking for reinforcement check to see the fight and... The wendigo was feasting on Dimitri yet none of the two were shocked, although Dimitri has this aura of being strong so most people don't truly fight him and let him win as in reality the rookies were all individually stronger than him, sadly he met a monster who would fight till the end.

Tsk. Clicking his tongue, Salazar realized that rather than chasing the wendigo it had been luring them here.

"Run now my little ones," the wendigo said in its screeching, deep, hoarse voice, "I Need to build up a little sweat, hehehehehehehhe"

The two boys happily obliged and run, without looking back, deep down they both new it was hopeless but when the other option is death, you grab on to any thing no matter how slim or in this case nonexistent the chances maybe.

They run without stop their bodies completely forgetting to remind them it was tired but even without looking back they could hear a bone chilling laugh that didn't seem to get closer or get further away from them no matter how much energy they put into running they distance between them and the wendigo never changed since it was just happily playing with its food.
