Target Found

Emmy had carelessly jumped out of the bus and started running in a random direction not caring if he had injured himself or not, Jone was held between his armpit. After getting out of the main road, he turned left and started running straight in the hallway of two tall buildings, people look at him as he was running with a white dog in his hand, some thought he might have stolen the dog and the owner is running after him, but they couldn't see anyone so they just ignore him and walk off.

Running out of the long hallway; Emmy entered another street where he could see more people, they all had their phone out streaming the net, many of them were walking with their phone, some were standing while some sat on the street metal chair. He stopped running and started walking like a normal person, he could hear the whispers of the people and it seems like they were watching something interesting online.

"Hey, come and look at this."

"Is it the amazing dog's feat?"

"I guess you've seen too."

"That dog is an interesting one."

"The boy that owns the dog looks weak, if I get my hands on him; the dog will be mine."

Hearing what the people were saying, he started walking faster and used his hood to cover Jone's white body so others won't see it, but it was already late.

"Hey, isn't that the fighting dog." An adult man shouted; he was coming from the front and had seen Emmy used the hood to cover the dog.

"The fighting dog, where?" The people behind and those that were sitting and standing said in surprised.

"It's right here, I really saw it with this boy now." The man shouted and the people started running towards the hooded boy who was standing still.

'Crap.' Emmy thought. He looked at his front and could see people running towards him, he looked back and could see the same sight with more people coming at him, his left was a dead end with two building merge together, his right is also the same but there's a tiny hallway that he couldn't pass through easily between the two building.

'What do I do now, I'm surrounded by a bunch of hungry beasts.' He thought. Some had started filming as they got closer, but some were coming at him with the intention of taking the dog.

He didn't know what to do as they had surrounded him, he was about to go on his knees and started pleading for his life before he felt something pierce his skin, it wasn't so painful, but it was enough for him to loosen the grip on Jone. Looking towards his armpit, he could see that it was Jone's nail and by that time, Jone had slipped off his hand and started running left.

Immediately all attention had turned to Jone as everybody started running after the dog, they had completely ignored Emmy. Getting towards the channel that waste pass through, Jone slid in the small pit that led into the channel. Emmy who was stunned this whole time use the opportunity to run away after seeing that Jone had escape.

"Damn, we lost the dog." The man shouted as he looked into the deep and long channel.

"We need to stay here all night and every other pit, just in case the dog wants to come out." A large man said.

"Huh, just because of a dog?" A young woman said as she keeps her phone and walk away.

"Where's the boy." A man asked.

"He ran away."

"We shouldn't let him off, he might know where the dog will come out." The man said.

Emmy had used the little opportunity to run off, he was huffing and panting as he fell on his knees. He's now in a quieter area and there's was little to no street light here. He looked around and could see that he was in front of an uncompleted building and at the back of the building there's a small forest that the bush was already crawling into the building.

"I guess, this is abandoned." He said as he walked into the building, it was about two hundred story building with the outside reinforced with metal. 'I hope you're safe, Jone.' Now, he only cares about his own survival.

Walking inside the building, he moves to the first floor and could see fifty or so room, the hallway was long and looks almost endless, he entered the room at the front, it was a large one that could fit about ten sport car in, there were different equipment left in the room and cobweb could be seen all over the place, which was a sign of it being abandoned.

He moves to one corner of the room and lie down.

"It's good to have somewhere to rest, today has been tough for me, and I don't know if I can survive tomorrow." He said as he thought back to everything that happen to him today.

"At least, I survived, I need to go to school tomorrow if I don't want to fail." He remembered that they are currently doing aptitude test in school and tomorrow is also Wednesday when all student will go to their respective club to train after lunch.

"I can still stay here for a while and be going to school from here." He thought as he closed his eyes, he had decided to make this uncompleted building his new home. A grumbling sound could be heard coming from his stomach as he closed his eyes. 'Wtf, am I hungry.' That's when he noticed that he hadn't ate anything since morning.

"F*ck, I have no money with me, I'll just have to sleep like that." He said. Even if he's to sleep like that, he has nothing to eat in the morning and in school, there's no free food. His mom doesn't give him money, but before his dad left on his journey, he kept some money that will serve him for an entire lifetime in his room and that's where he takes money from to feed himself and buy anything he needs in school. Now that he had forgotten to pack the remaining money, he has no choice but to sleep with empty stomach.

[Starvation is not something good for your age]

[New Quest Received]

[Go out now and feed yourself]

'Goddamn you Lord Lucifer, how the f*ck will I feed myself when I have no money.' He thought as he was already moving out of the room. 'This thing keeps making the situation worse, what if I am to get into another trouble now.' He had already stepped out of the building and started moving towards a hallway that lead to another street.

Immediately, he bumped into a large man with round belly as he turned to move onto the main road on the street, it was as if he had bump into a wall as he rubbed his hand on his head.

"Ow, sorry sir." He said as he rubbed his head.

"Bastard, watch where you're going." The man shouted as he moves out of the way for him.

[Target Found]

[New Quest Received]

[Take your target package and feed yourself]

'What? Where's the package?' He turned back and his head moves towards the man's hand and he could see a metal box in his hand. In an instant, he had zap towards the man and snatch the box out of the man's hand running forward.

The man didn't run after him immediately and just stood looking at him run out of the hallway.

"You bastard; I knew you were up to something, but you've made a big mistake stealing from me." The man said as he zoomed out of the hallway with one step.

'The man is fat right; he shouldn't be able to get me.' He though as he was now on the street that led to the uncompleted building. The thought had quickly left his mind as he saw something blur run past him and the large man was right in front of him.

"Do you know who you had messed with?" The man asked with his hand folded as he slowly walks towards him.

"Damn it; a speed ability user, and a higher level at that.'
