Surrender To Us, Our Luna (One Luna, Four Alphas) novel Chapter 117

Chapter 117: 117-Bullies Or The Monsters

Clementine:

He then looked away. Sadly, none of the announcements explained what kind of creature we were going to see. They just told us to be careful. I guess their drones had captured some activity or a monster. But why they didn’t tell us what they were seeing was beyond me. I understand they wanted us to become better warriors, but they could have helped us too. It wasn’t a game where we had to maximize our strength. It was literally about our lives and the safety of our land. But I digress.

"The creature we are going to find is Medusa," Ian said softly, almost like he heard me think it. I raised my head and turned to look at him. I noticed our squadmates were all looking at him. The doors were closed, so I was pretty sure the others couldn’t hear us.

"What? What is that?" Haiden asked, confused.

"I heard there had been a monster with a snake head roaming around. If that’s the case, then it is Medusa," Ian added. He rested his elbow on the window corner, bending his arm so his thumb was under his chin as he looked outside.

"I had heard about her. I mean, some time ago there was a rumor that such a monster existed. I don’t know where it came from, but the name was mentioned many years ago. I don’t know much about it," I told Ian directly, even while he stared out the window.

"Yeah, I guess it was when someone claimed they had accidentally boarded the train to the North, saw this monster, and then ran back home," Haiden explained, helping me place where I had heard the name before.

"Then that means there is no real information on it. If it’s just one monster in the deep city and the report came from someone who accidentally boarded and immediately rushed back, then the person must have seen it near the train station. They probably don’t know what it’s capable of," Troy added.

Now we all sat in silence again, just waiting for the North to arrive. North had become such a strange and terrifying part of our lives that every time we boarded this train, it felt like some of us wouldn’t make it back home safely.

As soon as the train stopped and we started to get out, I noticed the white team forming a circle again. They were like bad news. Just as we were headed along the same route we had taken last time, I heard some commotion behind us. I turned around and saw Jack bump into the green squad girl on purpose, almost stepping on her foot. She fell and I guessed she had broken her nose because she started screaming in pain.

"What the fuck is wrong with you?" one of the other green squad members screamed, trying to push Jack back.

Jack grabbed him by the jacket and pulled him forward, but Joshua kicked him in the back of the knee, making him kneel. Then Jack reached down and grabbed his hair from the front, forcing him to look up.
