Any second now, Gary was ready to charge in, but he just didn't know what the best way to do it was. Was Slith going to let the Altered attack him first, if so, during the fight Gary would be able to eat on them for energy as he took them down one by one.
The problem was, the other Werewolf was present and would most likely know what he was planning on doing. If that was the case, maybe he should just use his full transformation to take out Slith with a pounce attack to shock all the others, then head for the other Werewolf.
In the end, all of his planning was for nothing, because something had happened that he never had expected, Midwak, the one that seemed to be the right hand man of Slith, had killed him.
"Why are you all so surprised?" Midwak asked, as he placed one foot on the desk, and held up Slith by his head. His eyes were gone, and it was clear to them all that he was dead.
"You all knew that I was stronger than him. You know that I'm stronger than anyone who is in this room. Do you really think I let this guy order me around because I liked him?"
One thing was clear to Gary, that this wasn't an act, nor did it seem like it was something that was planned. The other gang members who were Altered were left confused. They were shocked at what they were seeing and didn't even know what to do.
"What, do you guys want to turn on me and attack me?" Midwak asked, as he looked at them. "Go ahead, you headless chickens, but you won't only be going against me but him as well, and with that I say you have no chance! So I'll give you an offer, join me and accept me as leader of the Scatterbugs, or fight me and die."
Gary was wondering what type of situation he was in, and during this confusion, whether he should fight or not, but while the Altered were making up their mind to join Midwak or not, it gave him an opportunity to fight with some of his allies. As the saying went, the enemy of my enemy is my friend and it certainly was the case in this situation.
"Are you just going to stand there?" Midwak asked Gary, who was in the back. "You must know there was another reason for me killing him."
At that moment, as Midwak was in the middle of explaining, his mouth started to grow into that of a large wolf, it was only his head though, and then he opened wide. Closing the top part of his upper and lower jaw he bit right into Slith's shoulder, taking a large chunk out of it.
Blood was dripping from his mouth as Midwak swallowed.
"You must know that we get stronger from killing and eating those we kill. We are more like beasts than like them!" Midwak said, as he continued to bite down on Slith's body in front of everyone bit by bit.
It was a horrific sight for everyone to see, and Midwak didn't care at all, it was as if no one was in the room as he indulged in his feast.
'This is bad.. He was already strong and depending on how strong Slith was, Midwak could get even stronger.' Gary thought.
'I have to act now.' Gary started to transform his legs first, as he ran straight ahead, but quickly one of the gang members from the side jumped in front of Gary. Seeing this, Gary didn't hold back as he transformed his arm.
'One hit, I have to take all of these guys down with one hit!' Gary thought, as he threw out his fist using all of his strength.
The gang member in front of him started to change, his body was getting blacker and his skin was turning a slightly dark colour. It almost looked like rusted Iron. Still, Gary threw out his fist, hitting the large man. A loud impact was made that the others could hear the punch but the gang member was still standing and he hadn't moved from his spot.
"You must have fought some pretty weak Altered up till this point, to be stupid enough to come in here, but there is an incredibly large difference between those from a tier-2 gang and those from a tier-3." The man said.
It looked like some of the other gang members had made their choice, as they were starting to creep around Gary, but not all of them.
"You killed him, you killed Slith. I knew you were a dirty rat from the beginning!" One of the men shouted as he leapt up, aiming to stop Midwak in the middle of his meal on top of the desk.
The man started to transform mid-air, getting a pair of rounded wings that flew him fast into the other, and his nose turned into a snout, looking like that of an elephant, only brown in colour. It stretched out aiming for Midwak.
When it came out to him, he lifted his hand grabbing onto the snout, then with his strength pulled the Altered straight towards him. It was with such strength that the whole Alterd's body was yanked through the air.
Soon after, with his other hand already transformed, he stabbed the Altered right through the stomach.
"This is great, another one to eat!" Midwak exclaimed, as he opened his mouth and bit right through the Alterd's neck, ripping out parts of its body and swallowing it whole.
"I am the new leader of the Scatterbugs gang - Midwak!" He cried out, with a howl. "With this gang, and the blood of an Alpha, I will use you all to get my revenge!"
