Bruak..!
The impact from outside resulted in a strong shock that made Luke fall from the chair and hit the child sitting on the other bench. they were both shocked, but his self control was more mature so he swiftly covered Luke's mouth who was about to scream.
"Shut up," he whispered in Luke's ear, "Listen, didn't you, the officer said just now, we can't shout."
Even so, Luke could still hear the worry in this girl's voice. After two seconds, he let go of Luke and Luke started to calm down. At the same time, Luke noticed everyone in the passenger seat, especially those close to the windows, starting to pull the curtains back. Luke also did the same. But secretly, Luke popped his head to see what had hit this van. A human figure with a super thick fur jacket was huddled on the road there and in the next second, another thing happened that shocked them all. The van swerved forward so suddenly that Luke and the other prisoner passengers were both pushed backwards clutching the seats in front of them . Some of the children couldn't hold back their screams any longer because the van's movement was intolerable.
"What happened?!"
"What's going on?!"
“Hey, who are they?!”
The panic situation completely engulfed this van. Everyone was screaming in fear, screaming for clarification as to what the van driver was trying to avoid to drive so brutally. Even just now, Luke was sure the van had driven through a pothole because the shock was enough to make Luke's spine fall off. Then, the van made a sharp turn, but at the same second, there was another collision from the left side so that the van almost turned 110 degrees. In fact, amidst their deafening screams, the screeching of the van and the roar of the engines were still heard blindly.
" Help…! "
That was all that was on Luke's mind. Luke knew that they were all in the same situation, but shouting the word 'help' seemed to lift two percent of his fear. That's how it is.
From the front, the two officers also sounded equally panicked. They talked overlapping and giving each other instructions. In fact, not long after, a series of bullets could be heard coming out.
"Eight o'clock, I'll shoot at eight! Hold your position Bill… Ouch! I said… hold your position… Did you really pass your driving test?!"
"Do you think I can defend the car if chased by a dozen crazies like now, huh?!" The officer's angry roar sounded to all of them .
Like a riot in one city, is happening here. This noise did not only come from their screams —the juvenile detainees—or from the engine or the screams of the two officers, but from the banging that seemed to surround the van that was speeding in succession.
Duk duk duk duk…!
This was literally driving Luke crazy. even if it was a group of thugs outside, they must be very good at being able to catch up to a van that was completely unstable and speeding like this.
“Stop! Please …” A girl screeched desperately.
" Mommy… I still want to live! Mommy…!" another screamed.
"Stop you bastards!" The guy in front of Luke roared loudly. He looked really angry than scared. Constantly swearing while hitting back at the window which was still covered with curtains. None of them dared to open the curtain, because—it seemed they also had the same thought—there was a kind of fear; if they open the fan curtain to give a gap for those outside to look in the window, there could be a stray bullet and end their life .
So, it was at that moment that Luke, who was about to swear, glanced at the window blinds. The curtain on this side of Luke swayed and occasionally gave a gap. Luke saw it. It was a group of people in super thick fur coats that covered them from head to toe. Some are black, some are white, and others are grey. They really carry a strange weapon, which is not uncommon for Luke to see these days. Instead, rifles, some of them carried bows and iron weapons of strange shape and perfect sharpness. So, because of that, for a second Luke thought they were a bunch of crazy robbers who liked to block vehicles on forest roads. However, opinion changed completely when Luke saw a super odd apparition.
In the crack in the fluttering curtains, Luke watched as they chased after them in their bare feet. they literally ran alongside the van on just their two feet, without any vehicle. And instead of weapons, they pounded on the car body with fists that seemed as strong as steel. Luke could see their lips moving towards each other too, but had no idea what they were trying to say.
And out of all those traits, the thing that made Luke gawk was that they could transform into animals.
Really Weird.
Terrifying.
Unnatural.
Impossible!
However, Luke wasn't lying. Luke saw how those who had stopped running to half knelt down with two fists on the asphalt, then… poof… those fur coats suddenly turned into real fur. Their two fists, became the front legs, their knees turned, and suddenly had a muzzle.
In other words, they became Wolves. The perfect wolf. Then back to chase them with no kidding speed.
Then, one money fact Luke realizes this time; everything happened in such a short period of time, so short. But, Luke can observe everything in slow motion.
Could it be that Luke's eyes have an abnormality?
Trouble continues when they all hear a loud bang, followed by the van starting to slow down and the roof of the van slid into the interior. In unison, they all looked up.
"Oh, no. Damn…" Luke muttered.
That something—presuming it's not human—is up there. On top of the van. At the same time, the officer opened the guardrail and started crawling towards the passenger seat, while the other officer was still struggling to get the car to go no matter what.
The boom from above was still trying to destroy the roof of the van. While the officer was also ready with a shotgun pointing up and the next second, Luke closed his eyes and ears, because the barrage of bullets was truly deafening. Like Luke's eardrums being pricked because of the loud eruption.
Too bad, the more bullets fired, the more intense the disturbance. Now, it's not just the roof that's trying to be destroyed, but the entire car body really wants to be crushed.
"Damn it! What do they want?!" shouted the officer angrily. Reloaded his rifle and fired over their heads .
In a bowed position, hands protecting the back of his neck, Luke heard the faint voices of 'them' who seemed to be answering the officer.
"Give him to us! Give…!"
Then that voice, had to disappear, swallowed up by the sound of sirens that came in groups.
