My Werewolf System

The system had opened up a special screen for Gary. At the top of that screen it read ‘Howler’s Pack Rules’ and underneath it were the numbers one to five, waiting to be filled in. The now Alpha Werewolf was happy to see that he just had to think of a rule, before it was automatically added to the list. It was just as easy to change their order, though he wasn’t yet sure if it made any difference.

Depending on the rule he chose, the system would either display it in a red, yellow or green text. Fortunately, the system was still being helpful, so it explained the colours. Red meant that what the teenager proposed could not be made into a rule, yellow meant it was too vague, and lastly green meant it was acceptable as a rule.

As such, Gary spent a bit of time testing the boundaries, before deciding on them. According to the system, he could adjust them as he wished at any point of time, as long as he stayed the Alpha Werewolf of the Pack, at least. In the end, those were the five rules he came up with.

1. No member of the Pack is allowed to hurt the members of the Howlers gang, their relatives, or their friends!

The teenager had decided to make this the first rule, in case the order actually mattered. This way, he didn't need to worry about Kai and the others getting hurt or his own family getting in trouble. If Olivia was unable to take revenge on him, he was sure they would have become her next target.

2. No member of the Pack is to kill another human without the Alpha Werewolf’s permission, unless they end up in a life or death situation!

Gary felt a bit proud that he had come up with the idea of adjusting the second half of this rule and that the system has allowed it. For one, being a Werewolf meant that there would be others after their life. As if that wasn’t bad enough, but as gang members, it wouldn’t be rare for them to go out and fight.

For this reason, the high schooler had chosen ‘kill’ rather than ‘hurt’, but this way it would stop Olivia from going out hunting random people or those she had some type of grudge against without permission, like Billy.

3. No member of the Pack is to betray the Howlers gang in any way, shape, or form!

This third rule was essential, and to be honest, Gary was quite surprised that the Werewolf System had actually allowed it to pass. The Alpha Werewolf was hoping, although unsure, that this rule would cover a lot of bases. In the first place, he was unsure how these rules would be enforced. He could only imagine it as a sort of spell making his members behave a certain way.

If Olivia felt like her actions were betraying the Howlers gang, then she shouldn’t be able to do it. That’s how he hoped it would work, anyway. Otherwise, after leaving her, although she might be unable to do anything herself, she could easily have gone to the Underdogs or other gangs and informed them about what had happened here.

4. No member of the Pack is to create other Werewolves without the Alpha Werewolf’s permission!

This rule seemed like a no-brainer. There was still so much for Gary to figure out about his system, and there was no reason to add more problems on his shoulders.

5. Every member of the Pack must kneel in the Alpha Werewolf’s presence.

The last one wasn’t a real rule he intended to keep. It was simply a precaution to allow him to check if those rules truly worked. Once he confirmed that, he was planning to change it into ‘No member of the Pack is to tell anyone about what they really are, nor to spread word about the existence of Werewolves!’.

Looking around the room, Gary noticed that Olivia still hadn’t woken up yet. The teenager went to pick up his mask to cover his face with it. Even though they had already seen him without it, for some reason, Gary felt more comfortable when he had it on. He noticed that some unconscious guards were twitching in pain, while others had outright been killed, not that he had much sympathy for them.

Heading back to where the desk was, he approached the snow-white girl, who was still faced the other way. She had covered her eyes, not wishing to see the bloodbath… which was probably the best choice she could have made.

“Hey, do you mind stepping outside for a moment? I should have taken care of all those outside, but just scream if anything bad happens. I just need some time alone with the one responsible for all of it.”

The girl was still startled, and the mask didn’t really help her calm down. Still, the tone of this stranger was far more inviting than staying here with the Pincers. As she started to walk over, her arms around herself, Gary sighed and took off his blazer, putting it around her. She flinched at first, but then gladly accepted the blazer.

“I'm sorry it's a little ripped, but it will do for now. I’ll try not to be too long.”

With that, the girl finally left the room, and it was just in time, as Olivia seemed to be getting up from her daze. Her head was banging, and she felt way worse than the last time she had an extreme hangover.

For a second, she wondered if everything that had happened had just been a dream, a nightmare. Unfortunately, when looking around her work area, she could see the masked boy standing there, in a bloody room, all her guards lying on the floor.

“You!” Were Olivia’s first words as she pointed towards the masked intruder. However, unaware of what came over her, the next moment she found herself on her knees in front of him. It felt like a command had been issued to her head and she was unable to stand up.

There was another thing that she noticed. The burning anger she had been experiencing just seconds ago felt like it was somewhat fading. Still, when she looked around the room, it added fuel to the fire.

“Your eyes... they're glowing.” Gary noted as he approached her.

“So are yours.” Olivia replied, staring at him angrily.

Gary touched his mask, unaware that at times when he would transform, his eyes would glow yellow. However, now that he was an Alpha the colour of his eyes had changed to red, whereas Olivia’s eyes had changed to blue, indicating she was a Beta in a pack.

The teenager was happy to see her kneeling, especially that she seemed unable to stand up on her own. It made him believe that the rules were really working as intended. He couldn’t imagine that Olivia would be doing that willingly, not after everything that had transpired.

Seeing how this had worked, he opened the system and went into the new Pack tab to change the fifth rule to what he was originally going to put. As soon as he had saved the change, Olivia could stand once again. Out of the corner of her eye she noticed the whip, and she immediately made a run for it.

“Stop!” Gary shouted and mid-sprint the woman halted.
