Chapter 11: CHAPTER ELEVEN:A CHALLENGE
Ethan and his friends stumbled into Blake's house, their bodies aching from the previous battle.
Blake muttered something under his breath, already heading to the kitchen to grab some first-aid supplies.
Ryan leaned against the wall, groaning as he held his side and said , damn that battle was so intense, I was just sneaking around....
like a rat , Blake said as he walked back into the sitting room from the kitchen.
"it's you that is like a rat" , Ryan replied with a frown and the both of them began to laugh.
I had my focus on something else entirely.
A familiar glow flared before my eyes.

wow!! I have gotten to level 2 and I have 5 stats point to distribute , and his name is he is bassam, I said as I looked at the unconscious guy on the couch.
you have gotten to level two ? Ryan and Blake asked me at the same time.
damn we are still connected, I said out loud.
I have already stopped the connection, Diana said immediately after I finished my statement with her eyes closed.
what, so fast , I was starting to enjoy the connection but it felt weird at first , Ryan sighed with a smile.
don't mind this fool , let's see the system, and is this guy the Bassam you were talking about, Blake asked as he pointed to the unconscious guy on the couch.
I'm not sure that's that's what I saw the system call him, I replied .
"let's see the system already", Ryan said quickly.
ok i said as I opened the system again this time, Ryan and Blake we right beside me.
how are you going to share the stats point the system gave you , Ryan asked .
watch and learn, i replied.

I feel energized, like energy surging through me , I replied with a smile as I swing my hands around.
Your system is very generous it gave you only one free stats point for your first time upgrading your stats, Ryan and Blake laughed.
I just ignored the both of them.
We need to take care of him," Diana said, nodding toward the unconscious guy Ryan had dragged along as she stands up from where she was meditating and walked into her room.Without a word, Blake and Ryan carried him into one of the guest rooms, laying him carefully on the bed.
As we prepared to settle down for the night, Blake and Ryan started bickering again.
Ethan sighed, rubbing his temples. He didn't have the energy for this, his mind was already spinning from thinking a faster way to level up and gain more stats point. He didn't intervene, knowing they'd tire themselves out soon enough.
Finally, after much grumbling, they all headed to bed.
Meanwhile…In a dimly lit hotel room, Sam and Jack crept in, their faces covered in sweat and dirt as they were both pale looking and tired from the precious battle.
They had managed to avoid the hotel staff noticing their disheveled state, slipping into their room without a sound.
Once inside, Sam pulled out a small device and turned it on, sending a message to their base. "We've got information," Sam muttered as they both stood in front of the screen. "The other creature fighting with the vampire the other day was a werewolf , he already turned a normal civilian into a werewolf, he has friends and They're quite strong , they caught us unprepared, if there is a next time we will be able to catch them, Sam sent the voice note.
"The reply came almost immediately, the words cold and short: Do not engage. Stay in the area until the full moon and wait for further instructions.
Jack clenched his fists, his jaw tightening. "What do they mean by, 'don't engage'? We could take them out anytime. he growled.
"Orders are orders," Sam said quietly, but Jack's frustration was palpable.
"Fine," Jack muttered. "But when the full moon comes, I pray they order us to take them down ,I'm going to take a shower he said as he walked into the bathroom.
"The Next Morning...Ethan woke up to the sound of talking in the living room.
His friends were already awake, talking to each other about the events of the previous night. As soon he joined them, he Sensed something and stood up.
At that moment the door to the guest room where they left Bassam was opened, a dark looking guy with light beards and brown eyes walked out of the room.
"You're awake," Ethan said, please come and seat down , I pointed to the single chair in the living room, Bassam walks over and seats down there, then I sat down back too.
"we should probably introduce ourselves", Diana said as she walks into the living room and seats on the same couch I was seating on.
my name Blake, Blake introduced himself plainly.
I'm Diana it's nice seeing you awake, Diana said with a smile.
my name is Ethan snow, I said with a smile.
""my name is Ryan walker it's nice meeting you"", Ryan said as he walked over to where Bassam was seated and stretched out his hand with a smile.
Bassam stretched out his hand as he stood up and shakes Ryan's hand,""I'm Bassam it's, nice meeting you too Ryan, he said with a plain face .
I was about to explain things to Bassam then I saw his eyes flickered towards me and my words got stuck in throat my, I gulped as if trying to swallow the words before things could get any weirder i heard Bassam's voice.
"You… turned me into what I am , didn't you?" he asked .
I nodded my head, then I asked how do you know I turned you ?
"I feel… connected to you," but not with them Bassam said, glancing at the others.
you are right we are a team but they are not like us , Diana is a witch, while Ryan and Blake are normal humans.
if I may ask what are you and are they aware of what you are ? Bassam asked me .
I'm a werewolf,and they are aware of that, infact we saved you together last night, I said as I expected a few things I know about the supernatural and the event that happened last night .
so this world is no so ordinary , infact there are there are entities in it who can destroy it , Bassam said feeling amazed.
hope you are not angry at me for changing your life, I asked .
angry, why would I be , I don't really have a life before but now I like the way I see the world, I guess I can start one now , Bassam said , then he looks at us and saw the way Blake and Ryan were looking at him weirdly, he quickly cleared his throat, ""sorry I got carried away.
what do you guys want from me ,he asked .
Nothing much we just want you to join the team, I replied.
I should join your team , I like your team but I don't think I want to join you guys,but I can if you can defeat me .
"Ethan blinked, taken aback. "What? I don't need to fight you for you to be part of the group , besides.....,Before I could complete my statement, a familiar light flash pass my eyes:
(Quest:1)
Defeat Bassam and make him submit to you .
Reward: unknown.
AH!! I sighed all right I accept your challenge.
Yes that's my boy , Ryan shouted with joy .
It's settled, when do we fight, Bassam asked .
Let's do it tonight then , I feels kind of easy to transform at night so let's fight tonight so you can transfer easily.
then we fight tonight . Bassam said as he got up from the chair , he then said I'm leaving .
Where are you going to, I asked
I'm going to finish some stuffs , he replied.
I know what you want to say , be careful right? He asked .
Yes, we just saved you yesterday and we don't want to start saving you today again, I replied.
No problem, He said .
Wait let me mark you with something so I can find you later in case of any mishap.
How are you going to do that, he asked .
I walked closer to him and grabbed his arm, this time I saw the system flash before my eyes .
(Quest:2)
Defeat Bassam and make him submit to you .
Reward: unknown.
(You have added four people to friends, make it five to earn a reward.)
Your hand is burning up, Bassam said .
In the next moment I let go off his arm then we saw a wolf mark sank into his arm .
"Done" ? He asked .
Done , I replied.
What was that all about ? , Bassam asked me.
This is our team's secret when you join us you will definitely know about it , I said as I patted him on the shoulder.
If you defeat me I will join you , Bassam said as he walked out.
I will subdue you , I muttered to myself.
Hey don't think about it too much you might not loose, Ryan said as he walked to my side
You better close that your loose mouth , Blake said .
Or what ? what are you going to do to me , Ryan asked .
He might have more experience in fighting than you but you ara in level two , and probably he will be in level one , you have a higher chance of winning Diana put her hand on my shoulder as she said and then walks to her room .
I think....
Don't just finish what you want to say , I said as I looked at Ryan seriously.
You don't even know what I want to say , Ryan holds my shoulder as he said.
Everybody knows, Blake said as he walks to my side.
Let's see today's task, Ryan said.
(Daily task:3)
Run thirty kilometers 2x=30 exp
Do fifty pushups =20 exp
Defeat Bassam = 30 exp
I guess the system really wants you to defeat Bassam, Blake said.
My boy will defeat him , Ryan said.
My daily tasks changed to three , I just upgraded so it shouldn't be that hard , I said.
That's the spirit !!, let's go complete the fucking daily tasks!!, Ryan shouted as we began to walk outside.
I looked at the system,
