The boys listened to the news, hearing that the storm had come early was good news for them. They always preferred to look for their next meal during storms because it was significantly darker than normal and there were always some victims stupid enough to stay out during a storm and stumble into their paths. Butch switched the television off as he turned to his brothers with a smirk, Boomer and Brick grinning. Sure they hunted other times, but they had a preference for hunting in the storms. " So it's your turn to pick Butch." Boomer recalled.
Butch thought about it for a few seconds before he replied, "Hiking. There has to be some idiot hikers that think they can take on the storm."
Brick nodded, "Plus we haven't hunted after hikers for a while. Let's go, the rain's about to hit and that'll be the best time to conceal ourselves."
Boomer laughed, "Not that we need it…"
Butch agreed, " Just makes it more fun!"
With that the trio left their home in the darkness of the storm and headed to the mountain popular with hikers.
After around an hour of leisurely hiking, the girls were resting in one of the caves towards the top of the mountain as they laughed and talked about random things. Once they stopped their talking for a little, they looked out below them towards the entrance of the mountain. Blossom took note of the amount of people that were present below, frowning slightly. She glanced at Buttercup, seeing the same realization in her eyes she spoke, "Hey Buttercup. Shouldn't there be more people by now?"
"Yeah, all the early morning hikers should've been here a long time ago. We haven't really seen anyone else and no one passed us…"
"W-well this hiking location has multiple trails… We could be the only ones that took this trail?" Bubbles nervously inputted.
Blossom stopped to think, that's true but could it be that people were taking extra precautions about the storm? Blossom snapped out of her thoughts as she felt Bubbles tugging on her shirt sleeve. Turning to look at her sister, Bubbles was looking up into the sky with her arm extended and pointing upwards. "Girls…L-look…"
Buttercup and Blossom followed her gaze to see the dark stormy clouds already situated above them, looking further they could tell that the storm had settled itself all across the city of Townsville. Their faces paled at the realization. Blossom now knew, the hikers weren't taking extra precautions for the incoming storm; the storm had already come. They knew that. Blossom heard Buttercup curse under her breath. "What?"
"Shit, how could I forget?! Before you hike you have to make sure the weather is gonna be good enough to hike! We forgot to check the weather! A lot of hikers listen to the news on their radios while they're driving to their locations, it's possible that they heard the storm came early and headed back home…"
Bubbles whimpered slightly, "S-so we're the only ones here, out in the storm?"
"I guess so Bubbles… Plus we're not necessarily near the bottom of the mountain either." Blossom speculated.
A few moments later, rain finally began to drizzle down onto the mountains. The rain started slowly before picking up speed, hammering down on the dirt trail, darkening the soil and slowly making it slightly muddy.
"We can stay here for a little then see if we can try head back down, it's too dangerous to hike any further… Rain makes these places way more accident prone, it's more muddy and slippery." Buttercup suggested.
"Plus if we really need to we can use the caves below as shelters." Bubbles added.
Blossom thought for a moment and nodded, the girls stared out at the rain and wondered what the professor was doing and if they worried him sick. A moment later, the girls finally decided to try head down towards the entrance of the hiking location, being extra careful of steps they took.
As they neared the mountain they took their hunt to the foliage and trees that blanketed the whole mountain, besides the multitude of different trails that snaked around the mountain to its peak. Around this time it had finally begun to rain. They jumped from tree to tree, scouring the trails of any stray hikers. Along their search they came across three people lounging in one of the many caves dug within the mountain side. Smiling, Brick looked at his brothers as they jumped a few trees down the trail and stepped out onto the slightly damp dirt road and jogged towards the cave with arms raised above their eyes as to keep away the rain. Nearing the cave, Brick called out "Can we stay in there with you guys?"
The three hikers noticed Brick and his brothers and nodded, motioning them quickly as they made room for them. Ducking into the cover of the cave, the brothers grinned. To the hikers they passed it off as a sense of relief, but to the trio hosting the grin it was one of eagerness in the fact that they were about to feed. "Wow, some weather huh?" Butch casually stated, eyeing one of the hikers.
"Y-yeah… The storm came early. It was supposed to come tomorrow but they miscalculated." The hiker replied nervously.
"Oh? Well that's bad, now we're stuck here." Boomer shrugged with a smile, keeping his gaze on another one of the hikers.
"Maybe we can… Get to know each other." Brick grinned at the other hiker.
The hikers shifted under their gazes, feeling uncomfortable and taking a step back into the cave. In turn the boys took a step forward, their eyes trained on their selected target. Each of the boys chuckled.
"Don't be scared," Brick started.
"We don't bite…" Butch continued.
"Much!" Boomer chimed slightly.
Fear overtook the hikers as they watched the canines of the boys before them grow longer, finally realizing what was about to take place, they screamed in terror, their screams echoing off the cave walls and were drowned out by the storming outdoors. The boys lunged forward, trapping their targets in place before descending upon their delicious lifelines. The brothers never sucked their meals dry, leaving enough blood for them to continue living. When they woke after blacking out they never remembered what happened, the void was usually replaced by an artificial memory. A few minutes after feeding, the brothers dropped the unconscious bodies on the floor and sighed in contentment before walking back out into the rain, staring up at the rainy sky and breathing deeply. They felt rejuvenated with the blood flowing through them, but it still wasn't quite enough; deciding on continuing their search for another meal.
After a few minutes, Boomer caught his brother's attentions, "Hey guys look."
Butch and Brick looked up to where his brother pointed out to see three girls slowly and carefully trying to make their way down the trail back to the bottom. They both grinned, they had just found their next meal and they were all girls nonetheless. They all nodded at each other before beginning their short trek up to the same spot as their next victims.
