Demon Slayer: Rise of The First Werewolf-Chapter 16: Rescued By Sanchez.

There were 8 people trapped in that sticky goo who were still alive. They were all look, these people obviously hadn’t eaten for days.

The little girl was amongst them, he woke them up one by one.

" We need to leave." He told them, he could feel something was coming, something huge.

" We can’t, we’re too tired please let us rest for a while." Said one man dressed in a business suite.

Adrian raised his eyebrows and looked at the man like he was crazy. " If you want to stay here, you’re free to do so, my job is rescuing this little one."

He picked up the girl and started running at a leisurely pace. Reluctantly the others followed him.

Their bodies swayed as they ran, they were too exhausted to run but he didn’t care, if they stayed here they would die.

He caught a disgusting scent behind them chasing after them, with it came the sound of something moving through the pipelines.

He knew whatever had taken them was back and it was pissed he took it food. After some time the others heard it as well.

They screamed, the horror of that monster was still etched in their minds. Tired as they were they started running faster.

Panic took over them and the dark nature of humanity showed itself. Some tried to drag others behind so save themselves.

Adrian clicked his tongue, ’ Disgusting.’ he thought. Instead of supporting each other to increase their chances of survival they drag each other down.

However a few were different, a young couple stopped and helped an elderly woman who was pushed down by the man in a suit.

Adrian admired those actions of theirs, willing to save others even though they were in danger themselves.

While that man’s actions were disgusting it wasn’t his place to judge what humans did, frankly he barely cared.

He could hear that thing getting closer and closer and he could run faster and abandon these people.

If all of them were like that man he probably would’ve but they weren’t, some of them were good people.

While he didn’t value their lives, he was taught well by his mother and wanted to help those who deserved it.

Then he heard it pass above them and he stopped. The man in suit did not, he was too consumed by saving his own life he did not care about anybody else.

The others on the hand were smarter, they knew he wouldn’t stop for no reason and as expected.

The pipe above that man busted open and a disgusting slime like substance fell on him. He screamed and thrashed around.

" HELP HELP ME PLEASE." he begged but nobody dared to move. They watched as his body body dissolved in real time.

They all froze with fear, Adrian turned and gave the kid to the man from the couple, " Take her, there’s another exit right that way."

He pointed towards another passage through the sewage system. " What about you?" The man asked.

Adrian grinned, " I’ll be fine, and oh, if anybody ask, tell them detective Sanchez rescued you."

They nodded and ran off, he turned and faced the slime like creature. After dissolving the man it faced him.

It looked like a green slug with thousands of tiny human like hands with three fingers made of slime.

It used those hands to walk and run which is why it was able to move so fast unlike a real slug.

It slimy body was disgusting, it looked like it was melting yet strangely it didn’t leave a mark when it moved.

It slime was not left behind as a trail. It started walking towards him, Adrian felt a tiny threat from it.

When it was five metres away it pounced moving much faster than a normal human, he jumped to the other side of the sewage water.

It followed him which was what he wanted, it chased after him and he ran into another passage drawing it away from the others.

The slug was faster but nowhere near fast enough to catch up to him. He didn’t run at full speed.

He always made sure it was close enough to the point it might think it might catch him but it never did.

’ This is far enough.’ after making sure they were far enough from the others he stopped and faced it.

The slug continued running around him and he punched but realised how stupid that was.

His fist went through the slime but it gathered back up and continued trying to envelop him.

He jumped back to dodge then slashed it with his claws but the sand thing happened, no matter how many times he attacked it he couldn’t harm it.

He grew frustrated, his anger blazed to the sky and his hair turned silver, he almost went full transformation but stopped himself.

He tried to calm himself down, ’ I really need to learn how to control my emotions.’ just as he said that he did something stupid.

He didn’t even think about it he just felt it was the right thing to do and sunk his teeth into the slug.

A burning sensation assaulted his tongue followed by the most disgusting taste he had ever tasted.

He injected his venom into the slug and saw the black venom sink into it slime like flesh, he jumped back and waited.

The slug paused, a few seconds passed then it thrashed around in pain, it dying screeches echoed through the sewers.

Outside the people had just came out when they found a police car and sought help, the police called it in.

In from of the Palmer house the couple were talking to a frowning woman.

" He told us the case has been transferred to him." The father said, the woman’s frown grew.

" Did you check his badge?" She asked and the couple grew quiet, they did not ask to see a badge.

" Detective Sanchez." She heard somebody call her through the comms radio. " We found the missing people."

The couple heard that and almost pounced on her radio to ask for details.

" You stay here, I need to take your statement about this detective Lunar." Sanchez told the couple then ran off.
