My Werewolf System-Chapter 850 Support From All Corners
One of the main areas being protected by the Howlers was Burnham Food Street. Right now, Olivia was walking through the street with Marie by her side. The two of them were looking at the large number of restaurants on either side.
Some of them had their windows smashed in. Others had part of their signage above the restaurant destroyed and had fallen to the ground.
Before they had fully been able to secure the area, it had been damaged as well, but now, the only ones on the street itself were the citizens of Slough and the Howlers members.
The people were taking up shelter inside the restaurants themselves. A system was being put up, where the chairs and tables were cleared while sleeping bags among other items were provided for the general public to sleep.
If there was one thing they didn’t have to worry about, it was food and water. The supplies in Burnham Food Street would last them a while, and they had a large number of chefs that would be willing to cook for the frightened people.
With the chairs and tables, they had loaded them out, and out of the entrances of Burnham Food Street, they had made barriers. There were two main entrances to Burnham Food Street.
The start and end of the street which were now covered with dining tables and chairs made of all different materials. There wasn’t just wood but marble and glass as well, due to the different restaurant furnishings.
Then there were also barriers set up in the alleyways just in case an attack would occur from that side as well.
While walking, Marie could see an elderly woman being helped; she soon rushed over giving her shoulder and helped her inside one of the restaurants close by. Next, she witnessed another carrying something heavy,
A large crate of medical supplies, bandages, and more that had been delivered from the main part of the cities. Since it was delivered by vehicle, she had to jump over the barrier, then lifting the heavy crate overhead she jumped back.
Everyone witnessing it was quite amazed, but they had also gathered that she was most likely an Altered.
“You're doing a little too much, don’t you think?” Olivia said.
“What do you mean, shouldn’t we help out the people?” Marie replied back.
“But you will wear yourself out the way you are going. Yes, you can help people, but you're going out of your way even more so than you should. You will tire yourself out.” Olivia replied as she looked at her phone.
“The Phoenix Gang, they are already attacking the other areas, Burnham Food Street will certainly be another place targeted. If you want to help out the people then we need to do what we're meant to do.”
“Kick the Phoenix Gang's backside so bad that they don’t come back anymore. That’s what we need to do, alright.”
Marie understood. It was just after what happened before she was a little confused. She thought she was hurting others rather than helping them, and she hadn’t really been much help in a fight so far either.
“Look at you two huh, when do I get one of those gold uniforms and masks?” Izzy asked as she had appreciated the two of them.
Izzy, a member of the AFA and had shortly joined the AFC, but she had decided to quit after getting some recognition to help her family business. A chain of restaurants located mostly in tier 3 cities and towns.
With her close connections to Gary, she had eventually decided to open her own shop right here in Burnham Food Street, and it was the first one she would take charge of. Everything seemed to be going well, that was until the Phoenix Gang had attacked, and as a result, Austin was currently in the hospital.
“If you wear one of these you will be the first on the hit list of the Phoenix Gang.” Olivia replied.
“Don’t worry, they’re the only one on mine, which is all of those damn crooks, and I’m going to make sure they pay for every penny that they took from my restaurant!” Izzy exclaimed.
“I have some news, from the attacks that have occurred so far, it seems that the enemy will only come from one direction. Either they're stubborn, think that we're that easy, or just craving for a fight, who knows.” Izzy shrugged her shoulders.
“My guess is, their only goal is to eliminate the Howlers.”
“Then why get the public involved? When attacks for other gangs have happened elsewhere, they strictly only attack gang members, and they take them out area by area.” Marie replied.
“There can be a few things, it could be to draw us out from everywhere we are, but I think the main thing is to scramble us into a panic like the way we are now.” Izzy replied. “Think about it, their first move in all of this was to attack the Howlers allies.
“They attacked each of the areas trying to disrupt all the business that you guys do. After that, do they face Gary head-on, no, they get the White Rose to get him. This is a person that does everything to make sure he has a certain victory, I think we have to remember that.”
“I also wanted to mention something else, Burnham Food Street has the second highest population of people. I wasn’t so sure that we would be able to handle everything that came our way on our own, so I asked Kai if he could give us some support.”
“If we need to hold this place for a day, I’m not sure just us and some regular gang members are going to do much.”
With a smile on her face, Izzy looked behind the two. Both Marie and Izzy could be seen turning around, and there were two people in their sight that they had seen a couple of times before.
“We are the support you guys need; you helped us before, now it’s time for us to help you.” Numba said with a big smile.
“Hey, I’m just here to go with the flow.” Ian replied.
