Chapter 2: Beast Awakening 2

The two lions beside the fighters were growling at each other. Benjo and Chad notice, but both of them looked like they didn't care. They suddenly moved, striking poses like they were about to punch. The aura on their arms and fists, are growing larger and larger. The lion beside them began to vanish, dissolving into particles that flowed towards their right arm.

As more of the lions disappear in particles, the aura in their arm grew bigger. Something big was going to happen if they used their right arm to punch. The lions beside them are now gone. Suddenly, both Benjo and Chad threw a punch at each other, both their right arms forming a symbol of a roaring lion.

Their fists met, and a small shockwave rippled through the air. Both their fists kept pushing, and we could see them getting weaker and weaker, the aura between their fists growing larger.

A few seconds later, a sudden shockwave happened, travelling to us audience, pushing and making our hair flew backwards. The shockwave send them both flying backwards. All of us are in shock, our mouth wide open as we watch them land to the ground.

"WHAT THE HELL JUST HAPPENED!" the referee shouted

Each squad rushed to their fighter to check if they were okay, both of them unconscious.

"I really don't know what just happened, but I'll carry him to his house," Janly said

He was one of my friends who joined the Shadow Strike Unit and lived near Benjo. The others helped Janly carry Benjo and took him out of the place. The Elite Squad also carried Chad out.

"What the hell just happened? What even was that!? Did this happened before!?" I questioned the people around who were still on The Battalion Ground

"We don't know, that's the first time that happened in years. I know I joined the squad when we were still in grade seven, this is really the first time it happened" a guy from The Elite Squad replied

The other people grabbed their backpacks and called it a day, they are whispering about what just happened. Mark and I walked home together.

"That was different," I said to Mark

"Do you think... It is superpower? Like it gives you strength"

"I don't know but it would be very cool if it is"

We started a conversation about what happened during the fight until we reached a road curve leading to Mark's house. We said goodbye to each other, I rushed home. I changed my clothes, laid in bed, and stared at the ceiling. I just kept thinking about it.

What the hell even just happened!? It is so supernatural and very unrealistic!? I opened my phone and just played a game, but I can't get over it that it made my mind blank while playing.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"I FINALLY TAMED THE GIGANTOSAUR HAHA!" I shouted after hours of grinding and playing

I went to sleep at 11 pm and woke up at 5:31 am. My phone rang at 7:30 am, time for schol.... Again. I charged my clothes, packed my bag, put on my shoes and wear my school ID, and ran to school.

As I entered the school, the Shadow Strike Unit was crowded around Benjo and The Elite Squad was crowded around Chad at the back. I could hear them questioning about yesterday's fight.

"Yow, bro, have you seen what just happened afternoon's fight? Benjo versus Chad?" A classmate said to his friend

"No,why? Is there something happened? Who won" the friend asked

"You haven't seen it!? Good thing I have a video, here, watch it. I just can't explain it"

He opened his phone and showed it to his friend. I could hear the familiar sounds from the phone.

"Hmmm, bro, that's edited. Look! Damn, I didn't know you are good at editing"

"It is not an edit, It is real! Asked the others and I promise I am telling the truth!"

I looked around for Elyzer and found him alone at his seat playing.

"Any progress?" I asked him

"I tamed a Raptor last night, it was so intense and stressing taming one" he replied

I was already ahead of him, taming dangerous dinosaurs and leveling them to fight the first boss, but somehow I am impressed by his progress.

"Oh yeah, what's your favorite dinosaur?" I asked

"Seeecrreeeeettt," he replied

He always said that whenever we asked him or asked any info about him. I let that slide and taught him again a new technique for a beginner, waiting for the bell to ring.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Hours passed until afternoon dismissal. I stepped outside and saw a squad crowding two seventh-graders. It was the Avengers squad and The Elite Squad. It looked like there's another fight was about to occur. I remembered what happened yesterday and my curiosity got the best of me. Should I watch another fight? Maybe.... It might happen again.

If something like this is really happening, how long could we pretend it was normal?
