Chapter 3

[April 13th, 199X]

[At night, on 01:32 AM, All through the quiet night in Nearburg, many, but not all, who sometimes walk or work or arrange their affairs at night, residents who peacefully and sweetly fall asleep in houses, apartments or other building locations.

At the moment, in the outer boundary of the factory of some production of canned dog and cat food, there was a horizontally rectangular shaped warehouse, which is located on the left corner behind the factory. However, one of the loading docks (with the exception of one that was open) came out quietly and delightfully Rancid Rabbit (a greenish rabbit; however, he was self-appointed as a warehouse associate and owner, but he knowingly hired himself for one of the jobs that he had, but despite the fact that he was the mayor of Nearburg in the main way, since several of his residents, including CatDog, knew about it so clearly) from inside the warehouse and between both hands carries a trolley box with two boxes on top, humming something to himself but an untitled song, before he placed the remaining different types of boxes between the two boxes and and quietly went on carrying an empty trolley box, right back inside the warehouse.]

Rancid: What a lovely night job as a warehouse employee and owner, and of course as a night watchman, if I may say so, quite complete. However, I will continue to deal with the boxes for tomorrow, if necessary. But now I have to take a break for now and I'll lie down in my room until I fall asleep, as I always wanna do-

[All of a sudden, when an unknown but distant noise, perhaps the sounds of a creaking gate of the factory that opened, it interrupted Rancid to speak to himself and stopped walking with a slightly frightened look, began to carefully turn his head and look around the edge of the factory in the total darkness of the night. He looks attentively and deeply at what is there, but there is no one here at all, he shrugs his shoulders absently, because he had no idea what it was that sneaked into the exterior of his factory, and Rancid continue to quietly walked away to inside of the warehouse and placed an empty trolley box along with the handling tools on the larger wall next to the door of his office room. At this point, Rancid tried to go inside his office, but he was suddenly interrupted again by the very loud clanking of iron metal, possibly knocked down on the floor by several iron pipes. Rancid, still slightly frightened, but in strict intent, turned and looked around inside the warehouse again, and especially took out a flashlight from some belt bags and turned it on.]

Rancid: Hello? Is anybody here?

[Yet, as Rancid walked through the labyrinth of various-sized boxes, he immediately heard the barely moaning voice of some unknown male stranger, who, as Rancid assumed, was the same one who entered the factory and hid nearby with the remaining boxes in the warehouse.]

Rancid: Oh! Who's there? (He slowly walks closer to the boxes so that he intends to approach and hear; but he spoke with an almost meek voice) Hey, don't be afraid to hide like that. Just come and show me who you really are.

Male voice: (O.C) Uh… S-Sir, you should not come near me. It's too dangerous to be around here.

Rancid: (But changed with a barely grumpy voice) Oh. For your information, I should have asking for this, but why did you come here to my-.. eh, I mean- my boss's place?

Male Voice: (O.C) ..P-Please, sir. Just stay away from me right now. Eh..!… No! The moon is still rising, that means I'm… I…

Rancid: You're what?

[A second pause reigned a little. But the pause was interrupted by a painful moan of a voice. Meanwhile, a cut to the revealed black silhouette of an unknown male figure, except for his eyes with bright white sclera and pesto iris, who leaned his back and right arm on the boxes, but between the fingers of the left hand and the eyes began to change, - from the limbs fingers grew sharp claws, and the eye color was changed to yellow sclera and Hawaiian tan iris.]

An Unknown Male Figure: (with a rather hoarse voice) ….I'm changing.

[Then, cut back to Rancid, whose pause was interrupted by his laughter with disbelief that he heard how this stranger, who hid in the boxes, spoke with excessive delirium.]

Rancid: (with a bitterly flattering tone) Ch-Changing, you say?! But, I've always been pretty confused right now about what I always don't get it what are you talking about like what's exactly going on here, honestly.

Voice of an Unknown Male Figure: (with a beastly but distinctly diabolical voice) rrRRRAGH!! I SAID STAY AWAY FROM ME AND SAFE FOR YOURSELF!! [and he was running so fast, as if haunted, but still in the shadows, near a puzzled but frightened Rancid)

Rancid: Hey, come back here! (He also began to running after him with a flashlight, while this moving figure goes straight and continues to hide past the boxes again away on medieval-like frame windows, except for one of them, which, behind its glass, the full moon in the sky shines and shows)

An Unknown Male Figure: (While hiding behind the boxes, he barely crawls, and he tries to get up to walk on his feet, but he could not, as if he often so painfully weakens his motivation; speaking in a normal voice but with a beastly growl) Ugghh… Can't…uh… let this bloody pain… ends like this?!….

Rancid: (He immediately heard and realized with a still possible assumption that the stranger was meaning about this) Oh! Perhaps you are getting as sick or injured, as I think? So, anyway, don't try to suffer with yourself, Mr. Don't-Know-Who-You-Are-Who-Can't-Show-Up, I'll immediately call an ambulance to take you to the hospital, or else…

[Cut to a silhouetted male figure standing, cradling his face between both hands, painfully tormented by something, far away with a brightly moonlit window, his hands with claws began to grow and even his body as well (plus, his wolf tail appeared and grew for a moment), as it turned out that from an ordinary male figure instantly transformed into a 7-foot-tall, but barely-muscled monstrous figure with a wolf's tail; his voice distorted to a low pitch, but with a beastly growl; his appearance was always shrouded in dark shadow, when he began to roar frantically. And then Rancid with a flashlight quietly walks and observes the entire territory inside the warehouse, and immediately closer past the boxes, where exactly the stranger was hiding.]

Rancid: This is my last warning to immediately come out and show yourself who you really are. Because you don't let me annoy Mr. Ol' Rabbit so much that you always hide it everywhere, how much he and I always didn't like it. (Suddenly, he with his flashlight he tilted exactly to this side what he saw; the silhouette of a wolf's hind leg could be seen behind the boxes) Aha! Catch ya! (Rancid so quickly slipped along the boxes to the far side of the windows, but there was nothing here, when it puzzled him again, in which he had no idea where exactly this stranger in his monster form had gone) Huh? Hey, where did he go?

[Suddenly, the silhouette of the left muscular arm of a monstrous figure with claws on fingers appeared, trying to pounce towards Rancid; instead, he just quickly waved and resolutely threw the flashlight from freaked out Rancid's hand, which jumped out of him and fell on the floor, but it is still light on. For a moment, a completely frightened Rancid slowly backs away from the silhouette of a quietly muscular monster that wildly approaches him with uncontrollable growling, and both of his hands with sharp claws waving and trying to pounce on Rancid at once. Cut to the silhouette of a male figure in a monstrous form, even on his face, once before it was usually flat, but now it has a wolf-like slightly long mouth and long wolf ears on the upper side of the head; as his hideous eyes between yellow sclera and Hawaiian tan iris began to glow faintly; he gets so menacingly closer and closer to a very scared Rancid who backs off a little distance before this big gruesome monster tries to set him up for a pounce. But instead, this creature pounced on some boxes and other objects, and would insanely crushed them, while Rancid ran with fear and hid in his own office with the door half closed, so that it would enable him to take a close look at what was going on inside the warehouse. But, every minute, almost the entire inside of the warehouse was a messy chaos, when the monstrous figure smashed some objects and even scratched some walls, with an even unbelievable but quite loud roar, and finally he jumped out of the window in a ferocious manner and disappeared, immediately leaving Rancid alone in an almost collapsed mess inside the warehouse.

Meanwhile, through the open gate to the outer border of the factory, the police arrived with blue-red flashing light bars and sirens, the officers and the rest quickly parked their cars away from the warehouse and got out of them and stood near the open loading dock before Rancid approaching and appears along the open loading dock, looking even more pale and terrified than ever, while he instantly but speechless looked at the group of police, who came up and asked him something clearly but out of sequence.]

Male Police Officer #1: Alright! We're finally here, Mr. Mayor! After you just called us by the phone and then now you wanted to give us important but recent details of what is going on right here and who is this offender who almost attacked you and also arranged a secret and elusive mess inside this warehouse?

Male Police Officer #2: What exactly does this offender look like, Mr. Mayor?

Female Police Officer: So tell us right away, Mr. Mayor, what happened to you and who almost attacked or scared you?

[For every second that Rancid is still watching them in such horrifying silence.]

Rancid: (He began to scream in horror; his white but bristling hair grows on the top of his head because of his gripped fear) AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHH!!!… Euh. (And then he fainted, however, the police group looked rather confused and looked at each other in an incomprehensible situation which they still cannot convince)

[Meanwhile, a monstrous figure, (rather, a werewolf) who, running sometimes with four or two legs, runs and sneaks all around the town and smashes through the windows or entrance doors into the some shops and other institutions/businesses, then makes and leaves a mess with scratches on the walls and other places all over. Even it stealthily approaches from a distance to the outside of the closed mini-market, where, on the left corner, a male adolescent dog worker works, quietly sorting out many shipped boxes to the entrance door of the co-service room, until suddenly he was interrupted by this distant but unnatural howl that he heard. For that, the adolescent dog worker carefully observed and he saw with his horror the beast that howled, it began to wildly growl at him, before it approach to intimidate and beat him up so barely violently, since this worker lost his consciousness and fell to the ground, but the beast is ominously began to crush all the boxes, and jumped out of the window inside the market and immediately made and left an almost unbalanced mess before it left the market and continue to sped off around the town for all night.]
