Chapter 2: Changes and Transformation

Nobody's PV

The next day Nya was still next to her brother's bed, who by the way, has not moved yet, the night he fell asleep he woke up every 20 minutes and changed the handkerchief on his forehead, he had to count the minutes in his mind and it was somewhat agitating at first. Lifting his body from the bed, he leaned in his chair and stretched a little to be able to clear himself from sleep, he fixed his eyes on his brother and took the cloth from his forehead again to be able to soak it again in the water dish that was still on the nightstand, when he took it out he squeezed it and placed it back on Kai's sweaty forehead.

After a long time, she could suddenly hear a weak moan coming from Kai, this was something new for Nya so she got closer to see her brother better, on examining him she could see that Kai's eyelids were moving, apparently he was finally trying to open his eyes but it seems that he was having trouble.

- ¿Kai? - Nya began somewhat calmly towards him - Can you hear me? -

Kai slowly opened his eyes and his vision was at first somewhat blurry, but he was able to locate very well that he was no longer in the forest, if not in his room, he directed his gaze towards the blurred figure that was Nya's but little by little his sight it cleared up well.

- N- Nya...? - With a weak and rocky voice, he tried to get up from his bed, but the pain suddenly reappeared in his body making him moan a little.

- Do not worry, you still don't try too hard, you're still hurt - Nya said calmly as she got up from the chair and calmed her brother down, insisting that he not get out of bed.

- How did I get here? - He asked half confused as he could hardly remember what had happened in the forest.

- The boys found you wounded in the forest after hearing you scream, and they brought you here quickly so they could treat you. Can you tell me what it was that left you like this? -

- No... I don't know exactly - he said only to remember small flashes of that night when something big and wild had attacked him. The growls and his screams echoed in his mind, causing him to get a little headache - Hmm - he growled somewhat in pain - It all happened very fast...which I think it was ... it was some kind of mutant animal or something... I don't know very well, everything is blurry in my mind, but I know it was an animal, and it doesn't seem like it's one like the ones we've already seen in Ninjago -

- Well, that explains the claw wounds on your chest and the bite wound on your arm. You were very lucky to get out of there alive -

Kai tried to move again but the pain did not stop apparently, this was already unbearable for him.

- How hurt am I? -

- A lot. That includes your chest and your arm, which is lucky it wasn't ripped or amputated you know? -

- Was it that bad? - He said with a slight snort - Well, I'm not surprised, that thing did give me a tremendous beating -

- But you're still lucky. The Sensei said it's nothing to worry about, did not need plaster so that you can use your arm in a few weeks maybe -

- Well, that is good news -

- I'll go get breakfast. You must be hungry right? -

- You have no idea - he said, showing her a weak smile.

Then Nya out of the room of Kai to go to the kitchen where and all were breakfasting, Zane will prepare something special for Kai more I give a couple of medicines for him, when Nya will take breakfast to your brother I help Let him sit down and eat well and after giving him the medicine that Zane gave him, he left him alone in his room to rest for a while, but she would check it again later.

The hours passed and it was already noon. As always the others trained outside in the courtyard, Nya spent a few minutes training as well but later she went to see how Kai was doing. Only to see him out of bed and out of his room, had told him that his injuries did not hurt him so much and I wanted to take some fresh air, but it is doing something strange to Nya, he did not think the wounds of Kai will stop hurting so quickly.

- Kai, are you sure you want to go out? I mean, you got very little rest. It would be better if you stayed more in your room and... - Nya said as she followed her brother, but then she stopped to see her.

- I have rested enough, Nya , I just want to get some fresh air since I could not bear to be in my room all day, also my wounds no longer hurt so much -

- Well yes, but that still seems strange to me you know? But despite that, I do care about you - he said as he stood in front of Kai while showing a slightly worried look towards him.

- Hey, don't worry, I'm fine - he said while stroking Nya's head - I won't make much effort, I'll just go out and take a little air, it will be fast, yes? -

- This well, just be careful okay? -

- Easy, I'll have it -

As he left the monastery he could see the others training among the training obstacles. Lloyd was the only one who noticed the presence of Kai, and quickly came to him.

- ¿Kai? Shouldn't you still be resting? - The blond-haired man asked worriedly towards the brunette who just smiled at him.

- Easy, dwarf. I'm fine, I don't have any difficulty standing up you know? - He said while ruffling her hair very gently.

- Are you sure? - He asked as he raised his eyebrow at him - I mean, your injuries were very bad, especially your arm - he said while pointing to Kai's bandaged arm - Are you sure you're okay? -

- You already sound like my sister, calm down I'm fine -

Meanwhile, Cole, was fighting with a training dummy and with a strong punch he smashed the upper part of the dummy and made several pieces of wood fly in different directions. A piece of wood flew towards Lloyd's direction and because he was distracted he didn't notice it, but Kai did, and he was so quick to see it that he felt his senses had become quicker and more agile to react that way.

- Be careful! - He said as he pushed Lloyd aside and caught the piece of wood with his good arm. For a moment Kai didn't know what he had done and stood there in awe of his recent action.

- Whoa, Kai! - Lloyd exclaimed in amazement when he saw how Kai caught the piece of that board very quickly - But what good reflections, how did...? -

- I-I do not know... I think it was just a reflection of me, nothing more , he created - Kai replied, still amazed as he continued to look at the table in his hand. But Lloyd was still a bit confused as he looked at Kai.

- Kai! Are you ok - Cole's voice was heard as he and the others left their training and approached where Kai and Lloyd were.

- Y-Yes! - Kai quickly affirmed to his friends - If I'm fine, guys, don't worry -

- Dude, yes we gave a good scare - said Jay sounding somewhat worried, or more rather dramatic.

- Seriously? -

- Yes, since there was a 65% probability that you would live. But that doesn't matter anymore, I'm very glad you're well - Zane said happily seeing his friend of fire.

- Shouldn't you still be at rest? Cole asked.

- Yes, I know. It's just that I wanted to get some fresh air, being in my room all day was driving me crazy - he said sounding a bit tired as he scratched the back of his head.

- But what about your injuries? -

- They stopped hurting me a while ago -

- Hmm. So yes it's weird - said Zane - Your wounds were serious, Kai , people in the same state that you can not cure anything more from overnight because still need to rest as it should, ¿ how that's possible that they no longer hurt? -

- I do not know very well, I do not know about medicine, you know? I bet the medicine you gave me helped me reduce the pain fast -

- But you shouldn't make a lot of effort, you know? - Cole said again.

- Hey, hey, don't worry so much about me, I'm fine, look - Kai replied to his friends trying to reassure them a bit while pointing to himself.

- But still, you should be resting - Lloyd insisted.

- Hey and by the way, what happened there in the forest? ¿What was it that attacked you? - Jay asked curiously.

- Well, I do not know exactly... It all happened so fast and then I do not know what happened. Almost everything is very blurry in my mind -

- So you don't remember what happened to you? Or more OK Does what was what left you like that...badly hurt? -

- Well, it was huge and hairy...especially it had very, very sharp teeth and claws. It's not like an animal that we have seen in Ninjago, it looked like some kind of mutant in the shape of a dog or something like that, I do not know very well -

- That it self is strange, my database has all of the species of animals in Ninjago and your description does not match any of them -

- Yes, that's the strange thing about that thing that left me like this -

- Anyway, you still need to rest, let's go inside so we can finally start preparing food - Cole replied as he led Kai into the monastery while the others followed him.

When it was time to eat everyone could enjoy their good food normally, after that they could continue with their normal duties, everyone except Kai, since I still continued to rest by orders of everyone in the monastery, so he stayed resting in his room all day. Then night fell and everyone was already sleeping peacefully, everyone except the Red Ninja again, in his room he was rolling on his blankets and bed from one side to the other, you could see his face moistened with sweat running through his entire being. Outside in the dark sky you could see how the clouds discovered a large and bright red moon, Kai could distinguish a strange sensation running through his body. A great wolf howl could be heard at a distance, accompanied by other minor howls as well. Kai woke up suddenly when the howling hole, that sensation was still in his body and he began to feel different and strange, he felt something inside him. What were those changes for him?

The next day.

When it was daylight, everyone was gathered for breakfast in the dining room, all except Kai who had not yet made it to the dining room.

- Hey, did you hear the noises from last night? I could hardly sleep because of that - Jay said as he gulped down his breakfast.

- Yeah, I heard them too, they were very strange - Lloyd said.

- Besides the animals sounded scared, their sounds sounded like someone had attacked or scared them - Cole replied with his mouth full of his breakfast.

- Animals can act in abnormal ways sometimes at night. Also in the forest there are many animals, perhaps at night they were very close to the monastery -

- The strange thing is that there were also many howls, and that there are not many wolves around here - Sensei Garmadon said while taking his tea.

- Well, there was a full moon yesterday - Wu added to his brother.

- And not to mention it was the red moon. That moon alters the wolves a lot - added Misako.

- Yes, maybe that was the reason - Garmadon admitted to his wife.

- Hey, don't you think Kai has already taken time to get up? - Nya asked, noticing that Kai's presence was not yet present.

- Nya. So do not worry, your brother needs the greatest possible rest to heal his wounds - wisely said Wu made with Nya, but the teacher could see that even the Samurai X was worried.

At that Kai entered the dining room still wearing his red pajamas, Nya was the first to greet him.

- Kai! Good morning - Greet Nya to Kai - Good morning, little sister. And everyone too - he kindly greeted his sister and everyone as he sat at the table and Zane served him his breakfast.

- Did you sleep well? - Sensei Wu asked him.

- Yes. I slept like a dog -

In that Jay bufo - You will say trunk. Didn't you hear anything last night? -

- No, nothing. What was heard last night? -

- Well, there were a lot of disturbed animals last night, not to mention a lot of wolf howls as well - Cole said.

- Seriously? Well, I didn't hear anything, I slept peacefully -

- Well, that's a good thing. It means that if you are resting well - Wu said.

Suddenly the phone began to ring in the other room.

- Don't worry, I'll go see - Misako offered as he got up and left the dining room.

While everyone continued with their breakfast normally no one noticed that Kai's face looked strange, he looked only at the pieces of meat from the other dishes and also at how they were eaten, Zane was the first to notice it strange since he was sitting in front of him .

- ¿ Kai? Are you ok I notice you strange -

- ¿Huh? Yes! Yes I'm okay, Zane. I was just thinking - he replied somewhat nervous and to avoid a conversation he began to eat with his breakfast.

Nya overheard Zane's little conversation with Kai, and was surprised when Zane said that his brother looked "strange", she will have to talk to Kai later. But that's when Misako came in and sat on her seat.

- ¿Who was Misako? Asked Garmadon.

- It was the mayor. He wants them to go to town -

- And he didn't say why? - Wu asked.

- No. He said that he would explain it to him, but if it sounded very urgent -

- Well, first let's finish breakfast and then let's get ready to go -

After everyone finished breakfast, they went to their rooms to get ready. While in one of the bathrooms, Kai was there to take a good shower, before Cole offered to help him with his injuries but Kai rejected him and said that he would do it himself and that he would be careful. While you open the water tap you began to hear how the water fell from the shower, when he began to remove the top of his pajamas he could see himself in the mirror and saw how several bandages were around his entire chest, right where that creature He attacked him, sighing he began to carefully remove the bandages from his chest, when he finally finished what he saw next left him totally shocked and confused. The wounds had closed and healed on their own, leaving nothing but the claw marks of the thing.

- But what...? - He said seeing himself in the mirror while touching his chest and feeling how the wounds had healed. Then he quickly removed the bandages from his injured arm and when taking them off completely he discovered that the bite had also healed and closed completely, as if the wound had already healed long ago - What kind of...? - He muttered to himself until there was a knock on the door.

- !Kai! Hurry up after you, I'm still - Jay's voice was heard outside the door.

- I'm coming, Jay! - With that he stopped looking in the mirror and began to take a quick bath, just for Jay not to continue bothering him as it is his turn.

After he finished bathing, Kai came to his room and put on his Red Ninja gi , he didn't bother to put the bandages on his chest again, but he would be careful not to tell anyone, but to avoid problems he just wrapped himself the bandages on his arm which was previously the wounded man.

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

After getting ready and everyone was in the city of Ninjago, the mayor would be waiting for them in the center where the Halloween festival would be.
Upon arrival they were able to see various stalls, games and shops set up in the place.

- Wow -ho- ho! Look how many stalls there are this year - Jay exclaimed excited to see the whole place full of various things identified with the theme of Halloween.

- Yes, it is also seen that there will be many delicious things to eat - Cole said as he savored all the food stalls he saw.

As they walked between the stalls, Kai felt strange, he kept looking at all that meat that they placed in the stalls and that they placed from some stores, he could even smell the delicious aroma when being cooked or even smell it if it was raw or not. It looked like he was even about to drool. If it weren't for Nya touching his shoulder snapping him out of his scent and taste trance.

- ¿Kai? - Nya asked towards her brother who kept looking at the meat on the stalls.

- ¿ Huh? - he reacted somewhat confused was with her.

- Are you okay? - I ask something worried.

- Y-Yes, if I'm fine, little sister, I feel wonderful -

- Are you sure? You looked like you were in another world -

- Don't worry, I'm fine. Hey do you smell that? - Asked sniffing his nose in the air.

- Smell what? - Nya asked confused by her brother's strange attitude.

- I smell like... Cotton candy! - He said almost excited as he grabbed Nya's arm and guided her towards the cotton while following the smell in the air.

In the small park in the center, right there was a cotton candy stand where a man sold them and gave them to the children.

Nya seemed strange and confused at Kai's behavior, also how could he smell the cotton from where they were before? If they were a bit far away - How...How could you smell it from where we were? -

- I do not know - he admitted. Suddenly several dogs began to approach him with the intention of playing, they were even beginning to sniff him.

- And now why suddenly the dogs became fond of you? -

- Again. I do not know - at that he began to caress them, but at that some of the owners came to pick them up while the others dispersed.

After that the two of them left to meet the others, but Nya kept looking at her brother in a strange way, and Jay was the first to notice his gaze.

- ¿Nya? Are you ok - He asked as he approached her.

- Yes, Jay. It's just, Kai -

- ¿What about him? -

- I do not know, this morning he acted something strange -

- How do I miss? - He asked for Nya to be more specific with him.

- Well... I do not know how to tell you, but I would have to talk to him later -

- Hey, calm down. I'm sure it's okay, maybe it's just something from yesterday. Remember that she hardly wanted to stay in her room -

- Yes, maybe that's it, but I'll try to talk to him later -

As soon as they reached the plaza they saw an enraged crowd being held back by some of the mayor's agents, and from what was seen the crowd had an enraged attitude, but from their clothes many looked like farmers and cultivators from all over Ninjago.

- Emm... Why are all these people here? - Jay asked when he saw how all the people did not stop protesting in several screams.

- These people seem to be all Ninjago farmers and cultivators, I know because I saw their faces on some files that politics showed me - Zane said.

- I'm afraid I know to where to come visit - Lloyd told also watching all the people.

When everyone continued on their way they could see the mayor away from the citizens backed by some bodyguards, but then he noticed how the Ninjas arrived along with the two senseis. He wasted no time and quickly approached them.

- Thank goodness they arrived -

- ¿What is what is going on here? - Sensei Wu asked.

- Don't worry, I'll explain everything when I give the news to everyone, which I must do before they take out their weapons - he said half nervous as he headed towards the stage.

The Sensei gave a signal to the Ninjas to go with the other people, when they were with them they could see the mayor go up and get into position on stage while he was supported by his bodyguards. When people saw it began to more complaints and cries to him as they saw him up on stage.

- You have to do something! -

- This can't go on like this! -

- !? Where you are the police when you need him?! -

- We will be in total chaos with all this! -

All the people yelled different things like complaints, claims and some insults while they took out the occasional farm tool.

- Please, everyone, please. I need you to calm down - he said when he made some signs with his hands so that they could be silent. Which luckily worked - Thanks. I know many have had attacks on their farms and wipe out all the crops every year in these seasons and-- - before I could continue I was interrupted by one of the farmers.

- That's right! And that's why we want you to do something about these attacks now. This can't go on like this! -

- Yes! - shouted some.

- The attacks were not like that for a long time, but with each year they are increasing more and more. What if the things that do this now decide to attack people and not just crops and animals? - protested another farmer.

- Yes, it's true! -

- You have to do something! -

- This can't stay like this! -

- We will run out of food! -

People continued yelling again and the mayor seemed more nervous now as he was losing control of the people, but suddenly...

(BANG!!!)

The sound of a shot made everyone shut up instantly, and being surprised they saw the guy who had shot already standing next to the mayor. In his hand he held the gun with which he had fired, and it looked like some kind of big old revolver. He wore black clothes that seemed to be made of cloth, plus a black leather coat, it was a style similar to that of a cowboy since he had a belt with two other pistols in their holsters and black leather boots. His appearance was like that of a somewhat older adult of some 40 years of age, he had somewhat shoulder-length black hair and a half-shaved beard and mustache, but the most impressive were his scars on his face, it was as if a animal will cut it diagonally leaving it with three long scars. He also had a totally serious look.

- Sorry about that. But it was the only way they shut up and stop talking to the mayor - said in a tone somewhat hard over something thick and neutral as he put his gun behind his coat.

- T-Thank you for your intervention Mr. Solomon - said the mayor somewhat nervous while clarifying his voice - As I was going to tell you, Mr. Solomon here present, came here to help us with the problem of the creatures that are attacking the farms and crops from everywhere, he also came along with his team -

In that arrived vehicles almost armored everyone with a black or dark gray, many seemed as if they were hunting vehicles as they had cages, guns in some vehicles that were indeed the most great, jeeps, and some road motorcycles, all the members had the same black clothes and wore what seemed to be a symbol of each clothing, that was the hunter symbol in Ninjago. Besides, they were all armed to the teeth.

- W-Would you like to introduce them Mr. Solomon? - asked the mayor nervously.

- My full name is Raymon Solomon, and they are my people, we call ourselves "The Hunters", some may have already heard of us but that doesn't matter to me now. The only thing that matters is how to catch those creatures that are doing damage to various farms and crops all over Ninjago -

- And do you know what has been attacking our farms? Asked one of the farmers.

- Yes, we do know what it was. And not only that, but also why he is doing that. Their farms, crops and livestock have been attacked...by Werewolves -

Suddenly everyone began to mutter things, the Ninjas seemed confused and the senseis were doubtful at that mention of werewolves.

- That is a farce, werewolves do not exist, they are just a myth, stories to scare children nothing else - argued a citizen.

- Believe it or not, werewolves are real. For years we "The Hunters" have hunted the werewolves that inhabit Ninjago , and our intention is to kill even the last of them - he turned to his companions and made a signal to his companions, from one of the vehicles they took A chest and a table and they took them up on stage, they placed the table in front of Raymon and the chest on it, when they opened them they revealed a kind of planetarium made up of some kind of somewhat old mechanics, but from the appearance it seemed to be a kind of calendar .

- The lunar planetarium - answered one of the hunters who had brought the chest.

- This artifact helps us to know when there are full moons, which is when werewolves transform and we have been careful that each full moon in these seasons is where they go hunting more than normal to get food. But there's a moon that is very peculiar to many other moons, "The Blood Moon" or moon red as many know, with this moon become more stronger and more wild and is probably where a new wolf emerges. There are three days with which this moon appears, yesterday the first appeared so it will only be three days for now, after that the moon will return to its normal state. But that's also why we will put a curfew on those two days -

Again everyone started arguing while the Ninjas just kept quiet and watching the whole scene.

- But what about the festival? - added one of the citizens.

- There is still much to finish -

- Calm down, calm - Mr. Solomon clarified - The festival will not be canceled for you, you can continue with the preparations. But only during the day, when nightfall everyone should stop what they are doing and go back to their houses to secure their doors and windows, and they will not go out for any reason until the curfew ends -

Again all began to comment for themselves themselves, but this time agreeing with what Mr. Solomon said.

- All agree? - This time it was the mayor to answer before everyone as he passed to the front with Mr. Solomon. All answered with a "yes" agreeing - Good. Is there nothing else you wanted to say Mr. Solomon? -

- Not actually. Only we will have the whole city guarded -

- Well, if that's all, everyone can retire now - after saying that, all the citizens began to disperse and return to their respective jobs.

At that the Ninjas and senseis approached the mayor, who was still with Raymon Solomon.

- Mayor - Lloyd began - He told us that he would explain why he called us, do you want to explain? -

- Y-Yeah right - the mayor clarified his voice again - Look, Ninjas, like what you heard on stage, from Mr. Solomon, that's the reason why I called you. But that was not the whole case -

- What else is there to know? -

Before the mayor answered them Raymon Solomon had been ahead of him to answer.

- I need you to help me in capturing the werewolves - I announce with a neutral tone.

- We? - Jay question.

- Yes - clarified the hunter - I have heard a lot from you, Ninjas. Your skills could be of use to me and my men, plus we haven't been in the city for a while so I'd like you to help us with the area -

- Well, but before accepting this - Cole argument going to the front - You must confirm that "such" werewolves exist - he said while putting quotation marks with his fingers on the word "such" - Everyone knows that those things are a myth and nobody knows of their existence, that's why I ask you: how are you so sure that these things exist? -

- "I assure you, boy, those creatures are very real". See my scars? - He pointed his finger across his face covered in diagonal scars - I got them from a real werewolf on my first hunt. And I assure you, hunting them is not easy, many die doing it and in the most horrible way you can imagine - his tone became deep and serious. That caused Jay to split behind Zane.

- Y-Yes, well - Lloyd clarified - What do you need us to help you with, Mr. Solomon? -

- I will show you, follow me - before taking another step he stopped and turned to the Ninjas again - A, and please I prefer to be called Raymon, let's say that Mr. Solomon is too formal for my taste - he continued again walking leaving the Ninjas still confused.

Raymon had taken the Ninjas and the senseis to a kind of shop already installed, but before they got there they could see how all the hunters were taking out and preparing their equipment, as well as repairing their vehicles, motorcycles and jeeps. Inside the tent, everyone gathered around a table that had a map of all of Ninjago, but it had several areas marked, which turned out to be the places where they had been attacked by the creatures.

- You see, this map shows the areas that were attacked by werewolves this year, and... - in that he takes out another map just as marked as the one you just saw, only this one had a different date and year - This map was 10 years ago, when there was still no bloody moon. They are the same areas attacked -

- Are all maps like this? Asked Garmadon.

- Yes. And not only that, we also have the maps where there were attacks on people, but those were only years when the bloody moon happened, in those days the attacks were more violent -

- Comparing these two maps, I can see that the most affected places are the farms that are on the outskirts of the city, which surround the entire area, but...why? ¿ Why attack the same areas all these seasons and special days? - he was asked Lloyd looking at the maps.

- What were the areas where there were attacks on people? Zane asked.

Raymon took out a red marker and marked the places where there were attacks on people, which were all the towns of Ninjago.

- Those are the places where people were attacked or have disappeared. And that was on every bloody moon -

- On every bloody moon? - Kai questioned.

- Yes -

- The markings show all the towns that are close to Ninjago , not counting those that are a little further from it - Lloyd said.

- They are also the same towns, every time we go to each of them we receive reports of missing people -

- How many? - Jay asked.

- Minimum of three or two people on each bloody moon -

- Hmm. Curious - replied Wu thoughtfully.

- Every year it's the same - said Raymon walking around - They attack the same places, kidnap people from the same villages and we still don't know why -

- Very well, what do you need from us in this? - Lloyd asked something serious.

- I want you to join us in the hunt for the werewolves - What?! - They all said at the same time somewhat surprised.

- How they heard. We plan to end this threat this year, and we cannot win this battle alone, which is why we need you. You are the Ninjas, you have saved Ninjago a lot of times, even from a giant snake - she got closer to them - Now I want you to save her one more time -

Everyone was left thinking about the decision to help them or not, one part in all told them not to trust them, but the other part told them that it was better if they accepted because if this was a threat to Ninjago they had to do it to protect the city.

- This well will do - told Wu.

- I like to hear that. Now that they agreed to help us, I will have to tell them everything they will occupy to face the werewolves - I walk towards a part of the store where I take a backpack where one of the hunters' teams was located - Tell me, do you know anything about the legends of werewolves? -

- Only those who have told us as children, why? -

- Because they are supposed to know their weaknesses, right? -

- What weaknesses are those? -

In Raymon he took out a large dagger that was made of pure silver, he turned towards them to show it to them - Silver is one of them. Totally pure silver, either in guns or bullets -

Jay had once again hidden behind Zane upon seeing the huge, shiny and very sharp dagger in Raymon's hands, while the others were just as nervous at the attitude of this burly hunter.

- There is also fire and a silver that we call monkshood. The only thing that can kill them is beheadings, a pretty quick way and without delay. Then also if you cause enough wounds in his body very, very deep, he can and you can kill him by bleeding. Silver objects are the ones that pity them the most, and with a silver bullet it would also work, but that must go straight to the heart or it won't work. With fire you can scare or burn them, it is also very effective. The silver aconite serves as a very powerful poison for them, it causes them a lot of suffering by killing them slowly -

- J-Just that? - Jay asked nervous even being behind Zane.

- Yes just that. Well, of course there are still other things that we have but that does not destroy them, it only weakens or hurts nothing else. But they must know that every time there is a full moon is when they transform into werewolves and go hunting all night long and it returns to normal when the sun rises -

- And how to know who or is not a werewolf? - Nya asked.

- When we manage to capture a werewolf, we usually wait until dawn to find out who it really is, after that we execute it and say that it was killed by the beast -

- Why? - Kai asked.

- When a werewolf passes his curse on you, your soul itself is already cursed for eternity, when you become one of those things you are capable of killing even your best friend or someone in your family. But even so, when we kill a transformed werewolf he reverts to human form. But even so, it is not known that he can reverse the curse -

- Okay, anything else you want to tell us? Asked Garmadon.

- Just be alert to anything strange that you see at night, or in anyone. That would be it -

- Well, thanks for the information Raymon, from now on we will be alert. Let's go back to the monastery, guys - Lloyd said as they all walked out the door.

Upon leaving the tent they saw that the hunters' camp was already set up, the Ninjas and the senseis returned to the monastery where they would now focus on preparing their weapons in case any threat arises nearby.

When night finally fell, everyone had already prepared to sleep in their own rooms. In Samurai X's room, Nya was watching the big red moon from her window, she was lucky that her room had a good position to see the moon and the starry sky. Their thoughts were on what Raymon told them, did werewolves really exist? It's the only thing he thought about in his mind, he also thought about the strange behavior his brother had at the festival, he knew that was not normal for him. She would have to watch him more closely.

While in the city the curfew had begun, the hunters patrolled the areas while the citizens took refuge in their houses and locked themselves so that nobody could enter.

Back in the monastery, in the room of a certain Red Ninja something strange was happening that nobody knew about. Kai would not stop sweating like crazy while he rolled a lot on his bed in different positions, out in the sky the great red moon shone in the dark night. A loud and clear wolf howl was heard echoing in the chestnut's ears, who would not stop growling because of an intense sensation that ran through his entire body.

After an hour, some two hunters were watching the public cemetery where the place was somewhat gloomy at night, not to mention that today there was a lot of fog covering the place, the only sound there was only that of the crickets singing at night, and the occasional owl or owl chirping through the trees. The hunters had baited a goat while they were hiding behind some gravestones with their shotguns already loaded and ready.

- Of all the places, why a cemetery to place a bait? - The first brown-haired hunter complained while sitting on the ground.

- Stop complaining and get on with the plan, the werewolf could appear at any time, also in this area is where a recently appeared - said the second hunter with black colored hair sat at the side of his companion.

- I know, but at least we would have brought the bikes in case he escapes chasing him -

- Motorcycles would attract too much attention, remember that they have a good nose -

- As -

Suddenly a sound of a branch breaking was hollowed out, causing the two hunters to become alert.

- Did you hear that? - Asked the brown-haired hunter.

- Shh - the black hair shut him up as he poked his head a little out of the tombstone in which he was hiding. He could see that the goat was still on the post.

That's where he thought maybe the noise was made by the goat who maybe stepped on a branch nearby. But to his surprise a black cat about to jump on while meowing bristling all over his body and raising his tail while growling at him, the hunter recoiled in fright.

- Ah! - scream a bit to see how the cat was positioned above the grave , in that last let out a meow and went running towards another direction.

- Ha ha ha ha ha - laughed the brown haired hunter of his partner when he saw the scared expression on his face.

- Shut up, it wasn't funny! - He exclaimed angrily towards his partner - Damn cat ... - he muttered angrily at the end.

- Well, for me it was -

At that they heard a growl in the distance that was later accompanied by the moan of the goat where afterwards nothing else was heard , both looked towards the post and saw that the goat had completely disappeared, leaving only the broken leash where it was tied. hanging loose on the pole.

- And the goat? -

- P repair your weapon - said the black-haired hunter to his partner as they began to load the shotguns.

The two began to walk around the area but it was almost impossible to see from the surrounding mist, but they were aware of any suspicious noise.

- Separate monkeys, so we will cover more ground - suggested the black haired man.

- Agree -

When they separated they had their shotguns very closely, but in the area in which the black-haired hunter was going he was able to discover a small trail of blood where he followed him and when he finished with the trail he discovered a mutilated part of the goat near a tomb. The hunter was a bit disgusted to see that disgusting image of the goat, but then he heard another growl accompanied by noises from various branches being trampled on the ground, turning around he tried to locate the sounds, but in that...

As if he had never expected it, a huge hairy figure pounced on him in a very fast way, making him cry out in fear making it impossible for him to fire his weapon.

With the scream being heard in the surroundings, the brown-haired hunter soon heard it, he ran to the place where he heard his companion's scream but when he arrived at that moment he heard another growl. Without realizing it, the same huge figure pounced on him, causing him to scream as he was thrown through the air and then fell to the hard ground. A howl was all that was heard at the end as the creature raced towards the city.

The strange beast began to eat all the meat that was in the nearby stores and when it infiltrated the stores, it activated various alarm systems causing the hunters at curfew to rush to follow it, but the creature managed to escape from them, And when feeling satisfied with the meat from the stores, I did not hesitate to go to where the festival was located and start looting all the cargo from the boxes that contained different types of food already prepared, the hunters again found it but in the same way achieved escaping from them and began running into the forest leaving behind the destroyed areas and the hunters who were following him. And so it was throughout the night.
