Ero Meter

"One of us will have to be on the lookout," Jack said and started to move towards his tent again.

Feba and Faneel looked at him and nodded and also moved towards their tents again.

"Both of you guys sleep first, while I stay here," Jack said as he looked at both of them.

Faneel listened to him and nodded. "Stay careful, I don't want to be bitten by that monster." He said and moved to his tent. "And I better not wake up to you guys moaning." He said and finally entered the tent.

Feba looked at him with an annoyed expression and after he was gone she moved her head around and looked at Jack.

"I can be on the lookout, you can sleep first," she said with a worried expression. "You must be tired." She looked at the dead dog in the distance.

"No, go rest first," Jack said in a serious voice leaving no room for her to deny, he was not tried at all, he knew that his Ero Meter provided him with superior stamina and because of that he was still fine even after walking for hours.

Feba looked at his serious expression and sighed. She moved on her toes and kissed him on the lips.

"Wake me up if you see something, don't try to fight it alone." She said as she looked into his eyes. "And we have some long-range guns if you want that." She pointed at the bags that were placed beside the tent.

Jack looked at the bag and nodded. "I will." He said.

Feba took in a deep breath and finally moved away from him reluctantly. She wanted to sleep with him however now the situation has changed.

After she entered her tent, Jack took in a deep breath and moved towards the bag that Feba pointed at previously.

And when he opened it, he found many weapons in there. There were automatic rifles and snipers and there were even some grenades.

'They came prepared.' He was happy with their preparation.

He took out a sniper and after loading it he sat down slightly away from the tent.

Soon one hour passed and Jack was still sitting at his place, as vigilant as before. However, no other monster came during this time.

His notebook was in his hand and there were some questions written.

He looked at the first question and sighed.

'Will any monsters come again?' And the answer was yes.

He then asked for a time frame and got a positive answer too. According to his truth meter, the next monster will come in about ten minutes.

And from some more questions, he came to know that the monster would not be the same as the dog and would be stronger than it.

He also asked if he would be able to kill the monster and it was also a positive answer. He would be able to kill the monster with the sniper he has.

He then asked about the next monster's timing and found out that after it the new monster wouldn't come for another fifteen hours.

'I will be able to rest after killing this monster.' Jack thought and looked in the east.

He has already asked where the monster will come from and he found out that it will come from the East.

He looked at his watch and only five minutes were left before the monster would show up.

As the clock ticked he started breathing deeply as he kept looking and soon enough he could see a black shadow in the distance.

"It's here," Jack murmured and took in a deep breath. He then looked through the scope and could see a humanoid monster running towards them.

It had black-coloured skin just like the dog from before and also had tentacles similar to the dog on its mouth.

However, this humanoid monster was running far faster than the dog and saliva was dripping out of its mouth as it ran.

Jack waited for it to come closer as it would increase the chances of the creature dying in a single shot.

And just when the creature was about five hundred meters away from him, Jack looked for the green panel and just as it flashed green, he clicked the trigger.

"Bang!!!" A loud voice resounded in the surrounding, blowing some air apart and in the distance, the humanoid monster got shot straight in the face.

Black-coloured gooey blood splattered everywhere as the monster fell to its knees and then to the ground.

"What happened?" Feba came out of her tent after she heard the shot and looked at Jack with a worried expression on her face.

Jack on the other hand stood up from the ground and took an automatic rifle in his hand.

"Another monster." He said as he looked at Feba.

By this time Faneel was also out of his tent with a gun in his hand. He then looked in the direction, Jack was looking at.

"You killed another one?" Faneel asked with his brows raised.

Jack nodded at him and started moving towards the corpse while his gun still pointed at it.

Feba and Faneel followed him with their guns in their hands.

After Jack reached in the vicinity of the corpse he shot a few more bullets just to make sure that the thing was dead.

"It's like a human," Faneel said as he looked at the dead body.

"We can tell." Feba snorted and looked at Jack. "I think I should also stay up with you. Who knows what kind of monsters will come next?" She said.

Jack looked at her and stayed silent.

"Let's go back." He said after making sure that the thing was dead.

After they reached their campsite, Jack looked at Faneel. "Sleep." He said.

Faneel nodded. "Wake me up when it's my turn." He said and again moved inside the tent.

"I will not go inside this time," Feba said with a determined look on her face. She wanted to stay with Jack after seeing the humanoid monster.

Jack held her hand and then moved inside the tent with her. He knew that no monsters would attack this place for the next fifteen hours and by that time they would be long gone.
