As the dogs searched for them, Shane and Clyde kept their bodies still, with their minds racing with thoughts on how to deal with the situation.

Clyde peaked his head out before hiding again, fear apparent in his eyes.

"Dude, they know were here."

"How? With all this smelly trash?"

"They can grow to the size of a bear and shoot acid from their mouths, I don't really think having a good nose is far from the list."

"Damn it."

Readying his shield and sword, Shane asked "So there's no choice then."

"None, they have us surrounded." Clyde readied his sword, eyes glowing a faint blue.

"Wait!" Shane pressed his palm on the ground, his mind thinking of meat dripping with blood.

"FLASH!"

A pile of steak appeared on the ground, swimming in a red sticky fluid that can only be blood. Shane grabbed the meat and chucked it above their heads, hitting the ground right in front of a few dogs with a wet thud.

You could be reading stolen content. Head to Royal Road for the genuine story.

As the smell of blood wafted into their nose, the dogs went berserk as they fought with themselves, trying to take a bite of the meat right in front of them.

Shane kept on chucking the steaks, only running with Clyde behind him when the pool of blood was empty. Leaving the area with dogs fighting each other.

"Good thinking."

"Less talking, more running."

'Run Run Run Run RUN!!!' Shane shouted internally as they dash between alleys, hoping to finally lose the dogs who so easily took a man's head and limbs of his body.

As the sound of dogs fighting finally disappeared, they still ran for a good minute for precaution, they didn't want to die being ripped apart by dogs, or anything at all.

"Grrrrrr"

Their eyes widen, they wanted to stop running but their legs didn't listen. A triad of dogs appear from the corner, their mouths wide open, letting the world see their brand new bone crushing teeth.

They were too close, even if they could stop, they couldn't escape because they were already seen. They could only hope that these dogs are weak.

"AAAAHHH!"

Shane held his shield and sword tight as he slashed the closest dog in the face, leaving a long gash between it's eyes.

"AWOO!"

The dog whinced in pain, but Shane kept on swinging his sword, not caring if blood splashed on his face. He then peirced the dogs eyes and moved the sword in a circular pattern, liquifying the brain.

Clyde on the other hand activated his power and dashed to the remaining dogs, slashing their throats and piercing their eyes. The limp bodies fell only when Clyde put his sword away.

When all was done, both of them gasped for air, not caring for the blood and brain covering the road.

"I'm not built for this." Shane said as both of them continue on their way to leave Neoran.
