09. Monster

This morning, Criss Fenty received another mission directly from his boss stating that he must bring two more test subjects for their organization. They had run out of hostages and none of their subjects have survived the evolving process in their tubes except for few. And Fenty was one.

Fenty had searched everywhere and didn't find the required people for the procedure. His boss just told him that the Mayor of San Diego and his family were camping in the jungle so he had to assassinate them.

According to his boss, he wanted specifically Clara and Ricky because he believes they had the blood type [-O]

The blood type believed to be capable of adapting to critical conditions. Like stress, danger and torment. All they needed was for the subject to survive the evolving process so their genes would be activated into Transhumans.

Fenty quickly reduced his phone volume and pretend as if that didn't happened. Then he brought the phone a little closer to his mouth. "I am not sure. But I got a replacement, should I bring them?" He whispered thinking Benjamin didn't hear.

[Send me their DNA samples]

Fenty touched the three kids using his ring. Then soon returned to his call.

"I couldn't find the Mayor's children so I got three more subjects as compensation." He finished looking Back at them.

*[ DING!! samples successfully sent.]* The voice appeared in Fenty's ears.

Few minutes later…

"Okay I've received two "O" negatives but my computer couldn't inspect the blood type of the other subject. Bring them to the lab located near Dellon."

Soon after the call has ended he sat there processing everything he just heard because of his abnormal hearing. Then everything became clear to Benjamin. He secretly pulled out one of the ropes on Ricky's boots while Fenty was busy driving.

"You want to kidnap us!"

After that he yanked himself at Fenty with the lace he had removed. "There is no way I am getting abducted." He held him by the neck, ceasing his breath with the lace. "Stay down!" He stopped the car and glared at him. "Boy. Don't mess with me" Clara was just there not knowing what to do and instead of helping Benjamin, she was just hugging her brother.

After having dealt with Benjamin by punching him several times, Criss Fenty took off but only this time he accelerated the car even twice its current speed.

Then he turned on a loud music, rolled up the glasses and then sped off. Clara's screaming never got out, Benjamin was lying on the side of the seat, his lips bleeding, his eyes swollen. Until Fenty had been distracted driving, Benjamin woke up then saw that Clara has been crying all her eyes out afraid they might kill Ricky. Which got Benjamin thinking of attacking Criss Fenty again only this time it needs to be in such a way he could stop the car from moving, Because the car was moving that fast and for a moment they thought they were flying.

Benjamin was struck by the way Clara had loosen hope, and that was enough to trigger him.

He strikes again, holding Criss Fenty's head instead. Benjamin grabbed his head then he pulled it by blocking his sight then bites his ears with ferocity. Criss couldn't help but yell and Benjamin wouldn't stop biting him. His ears started bleeding, Fenty struggle with his sight then he pressed on brakes suddenly.

His grip was tight while his teeth never left his ear. The biting continued and the car stopped suddenly and due to this Fenty's head hit the wheel.

Benjamin and Clara hurried their way outside while Fenty's head leaned against the steer. Ricky was stuck with his legs in-between the seats. Benjamin had to pull him out, but the sky was already darkening already making everything seem a bit dark..Benjamin was able to pull Ricky's leg from the seat but some broken pieces of metal cut through Ricky's leg all the way to his ankle.

Their pace didn't slow after that, Clara and Benjamin held the boys arm as they headed to woods. It was left with just two steps before they had entered the jungle then out of nowhere a loud bang reverberated in the environment followed by a piercing sensation through Benjamin's knee.

Clara didn't stop she went on moving forward because Benjamin had already given her {Go without me} clitchè talk. Benjamin was a fool to have said that because it didn't work.

Benjamin gritted his teeth as he realized a coin size hole inside his knee joints. And it felt as if his entire leg has been amputated. He turned around, only to see a figure of a man running and coming at his side. "Haha, You thought I die Soo easily." Fenty neared him with his unique gun pointing at the helpless boy lying on the ground.

Victory wasn't assured Criss knew the boy would keep on bugging him and decided to disable him. That way he wouldn't have to waste time finding and chasing the others.

Somewhere behind the bushes,

Clara couldn't leave with that kind of guilt eating her up after Benjamin had been shot. What kind of a friend who she be if she leave people behind. She stared at Ricky's legs that was bleeding with every step. "I have to do something.' So she hid Ricky in the bushes and came back aiming to help Benjamin with the stick she had picked up. Only if she what she was dealing with..

She held her dress up with one hand then she turned around and ran back to where Benjamin was lying.

She swung the tree log directly when she saw Fenty was about to shoot Benjamin the second time. The stick spun through the air aiming to hit him, then Fenty grabbed the end of it using his palm."I am not that weak child!" He turned and snapped the log in half with ease.

"Because of you I have to hurt him even more" He growled then focusing his gun at Benjamin then he fired. It was no other than the exact spot he had once shot.

Benjamin felt as if he was in hell. Most of his bones has been fractured. All he could register was the pain that escalated in his shattered bone.

Clara froze in place looking at Benjamin screaming on the ground. "Next time I will actually kill him" Fenty spat kicking Benjamin once more in the injured led. "Come back and I won't fire the second time." Clara felt drawn to the compelling voice. There was no way she could deny.

"Leave her alone!" Benjamin pulled Fenty's ankle trying to stop him with his tiny fingers. But Fenty kicked him instead then started stomping his boots directly at the boys stomach.

Each time his boots slammed against Benjamin Reed's stomach, blood gushed from his mouth . And even though the boy beneath him had become weak Fenty continued.

"You are HURTING HIM!" Clara slammed a log at him, yet he didn't stop. It seemed he had come to like the feeling of it. Benjamin became weak, his intestine entangled each other from within. His breathing halved, each breath felt like he was dying.

"You are lucky I have mercy on"

Fenty grabbed Benjamin by the leg after that he pulled him alongside the road until he reached the car. Clara couldn't help herself but follow. While Ricky had already ran to the side of the car not wanting to go through Benjamin's condition.

Upon reaching the car Fenty saw the lifeless looking boy and the trail of blood that followed him. Almost all his blood was on the ground "He is now useless" Fenty kicked Benjamin with force as his weak body rolled on its own, till it went through the bushes. After that he drove off with the remaining two.
