Capítulo 7: The Anomaly
It was a usual day on the busy streets of New York, there were people eating hotdogs from the carts on the sideways, cars stuck in the road due to heavy traffic, and cute dogs getting walked by their owners. In a split second, an S class gate suddenly appeared out of nowhere.
Two people were talking on a hotdog stand, they were completely calm despite a gate opening in front of them.
"Has the WGSO (World Gates Surveillance Organization) made a mistake like this?" A woman with a yellow star on the back of her right hand who was eating a hotdog said.
"I don't think so ma'am, the WGSO had never made a single mistake ever since their foundation." A man with a red star on the back of his hand who was also eating a hotdog said.
"Contact headquarters immediately, tell them to send a force to take down an S class gate. Also, request for her assistance."
"Yes ma'am, I'll also coordinate with the police force to evacuate the citizens nearby."
"Very well, I will stay here and observe the gate." The woman said as she takes another bite of her hotdog.
As the man left to contact HQ and coordinate with the police. Chad, oblivious of Kit and Donna following him, went to the woman who was peacefully eating her hotdog.
"Ma'am, Chad Chanington, a new recruit for the devastators. I was nearby when the gate opened. What can I do to help." Chad said in a nervous tone while shaking uncontrollably.
The woman, surprised of the sudden arrival of Chad, Donna, and Kit stopped eating her hotdog and looked at Chad fiercely. Her gaze made Chad shake more, he wanted to kneel down in fear, but he felt like he was paralyzed.
"Calm down, you won't be any help if you keep shaking harder than a washing machine. You can barely stand at all, and you still brought two civilians with you."
As Chad looked behind him, he saw Kit and Donna smiling mischievously at him. Not letting the opportunity go by, Donna quickly went towards the woman and asked for a picture with her.
"Ms. Victoria Clark, I am a huge fan of yours ever since your debut. I instantly fell in love with you the first time I saw you on the Times Square Gate incident." Donna said excitedly.
After all, Victoria Clark was a person of immense beauty, strength, and charisma. She has a long black curly hair and a complexion as white as snow. Apparently, when people saw her on the news it was after her first fight, people of different genders went crazy for her, and it didn't help that parts of her clothes were torn after a fierce battle. In just one night, she has captured the hearts of the American people.
Hearing Donna's words piqued Victoria's interest. She held Donna's chin gently and slowly dragged her head towards her until their noses almost touch.
"Love is a big word miss, are you sure you can handle it?" Victoria smiles as she seductively whispers in her ear.
This left Donna absolutely speechless; her whole face turned redder than a tomato and made numerous flustered expressions.
Chad and Kit who were watching on the back was also left speechless and red. They wanted to look away but a big part inside of them refuses to do so.
Seeing their expressions, Victoria tapped Donna's nose and breaks the ice.
"I'm just kidding, miss...."
"It's Donna, Donna Stacy"
"Well Ms. Donna Stacy, here's something for you." Victoria said as she hands Donna a paper.
"Victoria this is..." Donna said as Victoria stops her by putting her index finger on her soft lips.
"Don't take too long, okay?" Victoria said.
"What the hell just happened?" Kit said in disbelief and confusion.
Victoria then asked Chad to take a picture of her and Donna. Chad took a lot of beautiful pictures of the two. Donna then asked Kit to come and join them for a picture. Kit was reluctant but gave in soon.
After taking the pictures, Donna and Kit left. Donna waved Victoria goodbye with a sweet smile on her face.
Before they could leave, the gate became unstable. This left Kit falling to the ground and covering his ears. He looked like as if he was writhing in pain. Seeing this, Donna panics and calls the attention of Victoria and Chad.
The two immediately went to Kit. Surprisingly, Chad stood in front of them shaking while Victoria came to Kit's aid.
"They won't stop! They won't stop calling" My head, it feels like it's gonna explode." Kit said in pain.
"Calm down Kit, no one's calling you." Victoria said.
Victoria puts her hand on kits head, a green light appears on her hand. This apparently calms Kit down as he falls asleep.
"Is Kit gonna be okay?" Donna said in a panicked state.
"Don't worry, I've calmed him down. He's just asleep right now. I'll contact one of my subordinates to take him to take a look at him."
"I'll come with them."
The man who was with Victoria earlier came back and sees the situation.
"Ma'am what happened?"
"Johnson, perfect timing. This man here needs medical attention. Take him to headquarters immediately and ask Charlotte to take a look at him."
"Yes ma'am!"
Since Johnson had already contacted the police, it only took a few minutes before the Ambulance arrives. As soon as Kit was inside, they immediately took off for the headquarters of the Devastators.
Six hours had passed, in front of the gate was numerous hunters who have gathered to take down and close the gate. The group consisted of 60 purple stars, 30 red stars, 5 yellow stars, and the Vice President of the Devastators, the Black Star Hunter, Isabella Beaumont.
Isabella had arrived a bit late since she just finished closing an A rank gate that opened in Delaware.
"Victoria, give me a report." Isabella said in a serious tone.
"It is an S class gate that is considered to be an anomaly since it wasn't detected by the WGSO. The nearby buildings have been evacuated of civilians. The police and military had taken measures to block all of the roads that lead here. Ambulance and Medics have been dispatched near us and is ready to take action."
"I heard that a man was taken to headquarters. Care to explain?"
"Yes, apparently for a brief moment, the gate destabilized and at the same time the man fell to the ground in pain claiming that someone was calling him."
Isabella took a brief pause to think about it.
"Have you contacted Liam?"
"No ma'am, we are under strict orders from Liam himself to not contact him under any circumstance."
"Contact him immediately, tell him that I need him right here immediately. I have a bad feeling about this gate." Isabella said with hints of anger in her voice.
"Will do ma'am."
Victoria contacted Johnson from Headquarters.
"Johnson, I need you to contact the President immediately and ask him to come here."
"EHH? Are you dumping this order to me?"
"I am not! I can't possibly contact him since we're about to enter the gate. Tell him Miss Isabella told him to come."
"Okay, okay. But you owe me dinner for this."
"Fine! just do it."
***
In the clinic of the Devastators guild, there were four people, Johnson, Kit, Donna, and Charlotte, the nurse.
Johnson hung up the phone. His had a worried and nervous expression painted on his face. Charlotte recognized this and asked what happened.
"Are you okay Johnson? you're looking kinda pale."
"No, I am not. Apparently, an order from Miss Isabella came asking to call the President and ask him to go the S class gate."
Hearing this, Charlotte immediately sympathized with him wishing him good luck.
Holding his phone, hand shaking, forehead sweating, heavy breathing. Johnson musters up all his strength and courage to dial the President's number. It took him a full 10 minutes to fully dial up all the numbers and another 5 minutes to press call.
Ring! Ring! Ring! Ring! Ring! Click.
Johnson's heart stopped for a second the moment his call has been picked up.
"Didn't I tell you not to call me under any circumstance!" the President said in an angered tone.
"I'm sorry sir! but Miss Isabella ordered me to call you. She asks for your presence in an S class gate that opened in New York."
"S class gate in New York? Was there supposed to be a gate there today?"
"No sir, the gate is considered an anomaly."
"Alright, I'll just take care of something here and head there as soon as possible"
"Copy that sir, I'll relay the message immediately."
Johnson felt relief that the president was in a good mood and was easy to talk to this time."
"By the way, since you technically disobeyed my order, the next A class gate to open. Me and you will be training there alone."
Johnson's heart sank, thoughts of death flashed into his mind.
***
In the isolated and cold Siberian Wilderness, the President of the Devastators and the Strongest Black Star Hunter, Liam Brooks, hung up a phone call. Behind him were hundreds of hunters and military personnel who were completely silent and tense. In front of him, were five A class gates on the verge opening.
A few minutes later, a loud shattering sound was heard and along with it was the damned, deformed creatures of dark skin, sharp serrated teeth, dirty sharp claws, and their eyes were of a dirty white. Thousands and thousands of them exited from the gates, they growled and growled causing a horrifying sound in the area, they were extremely feral and aggressive.
Fear engulfed the hearts and minds of the everyone in front of the gates except for one man who was standing alone, smiling in front of thousands of Damned who were out to rip him apart.
"Let's make quick work of this shall we." Liam said to himself as he was holding his dagger and pistol.
