The current situation clearly didn’t look good for Gary, and even he knew that.
Thinking back on his life, he had been placed in a lot of tricky situations since he had turned into a werewolf, it just had been a while since he was placed in this one and he had to try explain himself out of it.
Opening his mouth though, no words came out, which he knew was making him even more suspicious.
“Is he dead!” were the first words that came out of Saiber’s mouth.
Gary could tell from the sound of his heart beat, the man had already gone to the after life, so he nodded.
“An Altered Hunter is never meant to attack a regular human. In rare circumstances we might subdue them, or it comes to a point where there is no choice, but it’s quite clear you had a choice here!” Saiber said his voice raised relatively loud.
The others on board the ship could hear it, but they didn’t dare to come and check out what was going on.
“Nevertheless, you even have not just harmed an ally of ours, but you have killed him!”
“He attacked me!” Gary answered. “I’m sure someone on board would have seen, I came here in the toilet to do my own business and I was attacked.
“Did you stop to think why this man might have attacked me? It’s because he’s an Altered, they all are, every single one of the workers. It’s obvious that they are trying to silence me.
“What did you think another reason could be that the two of us are in the toilet for, and the situation ended up like this!”
Saiber’s face was turning red with anger, and lifting his hand he swung it out. He was used to disciplining the new members as they learnt their place.
As it swung through the air though, Gary lifted his arm and grabbed Saiber right by the wrist, holding it in place there.
“I hate it..I hate this,” Gary said. “All I’m doing is trying to help you, and you’re trying to slap me? You’re turning out to be worse then the gangs that run amok with power in their city, why don’t you open your ears for once and listen.”
Gary let go flinging Saiber’s wrist down forcefully, he was close to just going to the centre opening up all of the crates and trying to see which was the armour he needed and jumping around to try and find Edvard.
But making his presence known in Ruin, it wasn’t the best idea, and staying close to the members of Altered, it was the safest option for everyone.
“You’re staying with me,” Saiber said. “You are not to leave my side for a second, you are not to do anything unless I say it, and when we get back, I will make sure you’re kicked out of the Altered hunters association!”
Not saying anything else, Gary had just pushed past Saiber and continued to walk down the hallway back to the first floor.
Saiber was left looking at his hand, he could feel the great strength that had held his fist at the time.
‘What’s wrong with me, why am I sweating so much. That damned rookie has me worried for no reason.’
Saiber turned around and went to follow Gary, regaining his composure and could see him walking down the side.
“Hey!” Saiber shouted. “Did you listen to what I said, if you don’t I’m going to have to detain you!”
‘I can’t believe it,’ Saiber was inwardly shaking his head. ‘This one person is giving me the most trouble and we haven’t even gotten to the garden yet, this day, it can’t get much worse.’
That was when, right in front of him he saw it, the rookie had started to run ahead.
He was sprinting, and he lifted his hand, he had blocked a fist strike from above, a clawed hand from hitting one of the hunters.
As to who the clawed strike belonged to, it was one of the men in the blue uniform a worker of the ship.
The thing was, Gary could only block one of the attacks. Saiber saw it, on the first floor, another worker had transformed.
Not just his arms, but his entire body had changed and he thrusted his entire fist right through the Altered hunters stomach lifting him in the air.
Immediately, Saiber ran forward, he kicked, and out form his back he pulled out two small handles, as he tapped the bottom, red like energy raised from them.
They looked like short swords but were quite thin in size.
Saiber, when reaching the Werewolf, quickly cut at the thighs, he then avoided a strike from the attacker, and he swung his blade right through its chin, and with the other energy looking blade stabbed right at the top of the head, killing the man on the spot.
He turned to look at the one that Gary had blocked an attack from, and he could see the other Altered hunters had drawn their weapons, all having attacked the worker who was only partially transformed and they had managed to deal with him quite quickly.
When it was over, Gary stared right into Saiber’s eyes, and then he looked at the floor right by Saiber’s feet, seeing the Altered hunter that had perished.
‘This is my fault as well. I could have done better, I could have convinced them, or just gotten into a fight with them, and now someone has lost their life.’
Still Gary had to say something as he looked at Saiber.
“Is this the proof that you wanted?” Gary asked.
Two of the Workers being Altered didn’t mean they were all Altered, but with what happened, Saiber wasn’t taking any chances.
“EVERYONE, WERE UNDER ATTACK!” Saiber shouted. “SEIZE THE SHIP WORKERS, DON”T TRUST THEM!”
