Under the Veil of Night
In the City of Crime, one law stands above them all: Only the strongest can live. Fighting is normal, extortion is common, and death is inevitable. Born into a wealthy family yet forced to live in poverty, Kanae Nali vowed to become strong enough to take back what rightfully belonged to her—even if it meant that she had to face the consequences and brave the dangers lurking in every corner. Yet on the outside, just like her mysterious peers, she was no different from the other high school students living their lives to the fullest. “Under the ray of light, my ability will only make me die faster. Under the veil of night, my ability allows me to survive longer.” ____ Story set in fictional city. Any similarities with real world's event is purely coincidence.

Monsters Unleashed
Outside the Gate
Patrick smirked when he saw the gate broken. "It's not as sturdy as I thought."
"Let's go!"
Without waiting for the others, Patrick stomped on the ground and charged towards Jeff and Ayres. Before he could reach the two of them, a surge of people –no, monsters attacked him.
Patrick stopped his movement abruptly and put his spear on defensive position as the monster lunged at him. The ugly looking monster roared at Patrick right in front of the man. Patrick's face darkened as he kicked the monsters back, slamming it to the group of monsters behind.
"What in the world is that?" the leader's face paled immediately.
Dean readied his blade. "That's the result of their experiment, Officer. Haven't you seen the video and briefing that they give?"
