Meanwhile, at the Headquarters of Team 4, Kyle enters the building. He goes to the metallic door, which can be entered only by doing a quick scan on the entire body, on of the face and on the eyes. After this scan, Kyle goes inside the headquarters and walks to the Main Hall, where Alexia is there, who is checking the computers.

"Hello, Alexia!" says Kyle, coming to her.

"Hello, Kyle!" says Alexia, turning around to Kyle, she looks at him, walking towards her.

"How are things looking on our range?"

"Good" responded Alexia" to Kyle. "We haven't had any attacks these days. From that day, we took Carmen in. About her. How is the transformation going?"

"It goes well, in my case," says Kyle. "Although, my data is unsure since I was not able to infiltrate into her house, unlike Lucian."

"I will probably ask him."

"Most likely."

"The leader has come earlier from his meeting." says Alexia, checking the locations of the North-West of Team 4 Region. "He looks a bit disappointing."

"What happened?"

"I don't know," says Alexia. "Maybe we can use Lucian for it."

"Again?" says Kyle, feeling a bit irritated. "We cannot always use Lucian to read the Boss' mind."

"You don't need to talk about it this loud," says Alexia to Kyle, in a tone that can barely be heard from at least four meters away by anyone. "These walls might be metallic, but you can hear almost anything from the other side."

"I get it," he says in a low tone of voice. "But. We can just ask him about it. He is our leader, after all. He doesn't hide any secrets from us."

Alexia did not comment back, she just nodded her head in agreement, and carried on to her task. Kyle goes to the living room, sits on the couch, takes his phone out, and scrolls down to the social media. He doesn't have anything else to do because he is a hunter sent to the missions outside. And since there weren't many missions given in this entire region, he had a few days to relax and even study for his upcoming high school tests.

Twenty minutes later, on the pier, Carmen is still looking at the stalls, searching for the perfect dish to be used for tonight's dinner. This has gone from a simple and fast task, to a difficult and long one, thanks to the soul of Vewolf's, who is lurking inside Carmen's body. They have searched twenty stalls so far, and most of them are selling either fish which for being eaten, smells bad or is poisonous. But at least, they avoided a hospital visit.

Finally, they see a stall that sells trout. The trout, who are looking fresh, smell good and not poisonous, are detected by Vewolf, who tells Carmen to take that stall and buy the fish.

She does as Vewolf says. She goes to that stall, buys a trout and, after a while, when the seller calculates the weight of the fish and the money, the seller tells Carmen the amount she has to pay for it. Carmen pays for the trout, and leaves the fishing stalls with a fresh-looking trout that will be cooked later.

"Thank you." says Carmen to her inner Vewolf.

"Hey. I also live in this body, you know. And I would like not to be sick from eating a mere fish."

"What is your species eating anyway?"

"It is believed by some people we only eat vegetal types of food, you know, carrots, tomatoes, pears, apples, you know what type I am talking about, right?"

"Yes."

"Good. But we also eat some meat in order to survive."

"I see…"

Carmen leaves the area where people are selling fish and other things to stalls. She crosses the street and goes to a bus stop, where she is waiting for a bus to arrive. Especially the bus she took earlier to get to this place. At this bus stop, there were also a few more people, unknown to Carmen, because living in a city, nobody knows you, rather than in a village where every single person from there knows your birthday, name, family, shoe size, cringe things you have done and even the clothes you are wearing almost every day.

The story has been taken without consent; if you see it on Amazon, report the incident.

At the bus station, Carmen sits on a chair and is freed by a woman who saw her bus approaching the station. As the bus approached, that woman, together with three more people approaches the bus, and goes to their seats. After the bus closes the doors, he goes away from the station, leaving Carmen and three other people at the bus stop.

"Why haven't you taken that… um… car?" asks inner Vewolf to Carmen's mind.

"It is a bus," says inner Carmen to the Vewolf. "And that one was going to the other station. I need to get the right one, which is the one we took to come here."

"I don't get it," asks the inner Vewolf. "You have my speed. Why aren't you using it?"

"Because I am not good at running."

"So, you'd rather take a thing called a "bus" and pay a note, rather than walking on foot or running to your house?"

"Yes."

"Girl. You know how to miss big opportunities like these."

Carmen sees her bus approaching the station. She prepares herself to get on the bus and grab the first free seat she will see. When the bus stopped, only Carmen was the one who took that bus, while the other people remained at the bus stop, probably waiting for the other one to appear. As Carmen gets inside the bus, she pays for her ticket, and walks about ten steps to the free seat where she sits there by herself, while holding the bag with fish she bought for tonight's dinner.

"How much do we have to wait?" asks the inner Vewolf.

"About ten to twenty minutes," says Carmen to the Vewolf.

"Urgh. Why can't you take a metal object with wheels like the rest of the humans?"

"Objects with wheels?... You mean cars?"

"Kars? You know the existence of Moon Knights?"

"Vehicles?" tries Carmen again.

"That's what you call those objects?"

"Yes. But they have more names and meanings. Like cars, vehicles and four wheels."

"You call these things Cars? Thank God there is no Moon Knight nearby to hear that and he will feel a bit insulted."

"What are Moon Knights anyway?"

"They are said to be humans, but with gravity and asphyxiation superpowers. They always wear black armor to hide their identity, but they match the body of a human from the Homo Sapiens species."

"Hm… How do you know them?"

"I have been in this world for about hundreds of years. I know everything about any creatures I've encountered."

"Oh… So, you were in a Hunter team?"

"Yes. But that was with the Helsinki Hunter Team. And it was fifty years ago."

"What happened?"

"My "body" got killed in a mission and I had to flee the place by infecting a normal wolf who was near the attack."

"Sounds awful." says Carmen to the inner Vewolf.

"For you maybe. But for our species, this is normal. When the host dies, we leave their decayed bodies and run to the nearest ones that seem either compatible to us, or just good enough. Like your case."

"Hold on, you said I was good enough for you."

"No. I say you are quite terrible at some things," says the inner Vewolf, being sincere. "Such at physical movements, and probably at combat.

"Rude," says Carmen, feeling bad about herself. "But at least you are living the next 150 years with me."

"… It will sure be interesting," says the inner Vewolf.

Carmen looks around herself, she observes the bus has stopped at a station. Upon stopping at the said station, someone climbs the bus, and that someone resembles the appearance of someone that is not human. Yet the driver of the bus and other passengers did not mind him. Even though he wears some dirty jacket that smells like crap, and has a thousand stains all around his worn-out clothes, the passengers and the driver did not pay any attention to him. That man, looking like a hobo rather than a normal human with a job, pays for the ticket and walks to Carmen in that direction.

The man stops at Carmen's free seat, and he looks at the seat in the window. The man was about to say something, but Carmen did move over, to take the seat she took a few months ago. The man thanks her by lifting his head down. He takes the seat and enjoys the ride.

As the bus starts driving to the next station, the man dressed like a hobo, decides to say something to Carmen.

"I know you have it."

"Um. Sir?" says Carmen, a bit creeped out, thinking the man meant some kind of drug or something else dangerous.

"You have it on you."

"Sir. I do not have any idea what you are talking about."

"You don't? Oh. I know you do."

Carmen was feeling a bit worried by this strange man.

That man, looking like a hobo, raises the jacket's left hand, and he reveals to her a hairy hand. But not a normal looking human hairy hand. The hand of that man has so much hair, that it resembles people who are transforming into a werewolf or partially transforming. For Carmen, this seemed something creepy. She thinks that person is a hobo man, who is trying to either pin her down and enjoy herself, or try to steal the money she has in her trousers.

"I am what you are."

"N-No," says Carmen. "Y-You are not."

"Yes, he is." says the inner Vewolf in Carmen's mind.

"Huh?" says Carmen out loud, startled.

"Hm?" asks the hobo-looking man, confused.

The bus stops in front of a red light.

"What do you mean by this?" asks Carmen to her inner Vewolf.

"That man is one like you. Half-half, but he is another kind of my species."

"You mean? Another type of Vewolf?"

"No. He is a simple werewolf."

"Correct." says the hobo-looking man telepathically, startling Carmen and the inner Vewolf. "And I have come here to make a deal."

"A deal?"

"We will discuss it at the next station." says the hobo man, getting out of the seat, and walking to the bus doors.

Carmen, having no choice, decides to follow the man. After the fact the man was able earlier to speak in Carmen's mind, it seemed to be the real deal. Even her inner Vewolf agrees with this thing.
