The Monster Tamer

Chapter 1: The Monster Apocalypse

Have you ever heard of vampires and werewolves? How about devils and demons? Do you believe in them, those creatures that you can only see in fairy tale books and movies? Well, they are all true, but they were just hiding from the humans until that day.

The world had changed drastically since that day. That day was known to the whole world as the monster apocalypse. That beginning of that day was just like any other day, humans were doing their daily routines, going to school or work. They never thought that they would come, monsters of different kinds and sizes.

When night fell, the monsters started to emerge and started to wreak havoc on humankind. At first monsters that looked like warped animals have been sighted. Those monsters came in different sizes, some as small as a cat and some as large as an elephant. Those monsters had a taste for human flesh. The warning was to flee for your live if you ever sighted such creatures, but mostly none ever survived to tell the tail.

The humans tried to fight back with their weapons, such as guns and firearms. But these monsters had thick skins that were not easily punctured. Because of that human scientist started to research on weapons that can kill such monsters. They also tried to solve the question on where these monsters came from.

Some thought that these monsters came from the sky like alien beings from outer space. Some speculated that they were mutated species of animals, while some thought they were demons from hell.

At first these creatures only came out when night falls, and so the humans felt safe on daytime. But as time passed by, these monsters were adapting to daylight. These gave another problem to the humans.

As time passed by and the war against these monsters are still raging, a more intelligent forms of monsters emerged. Those monsters have human forms and with strong abilities. These are the monsters that were told in myths and legends. Vampires, werewolves, gargoyles, cyclops, and many more. Those things that you read in books are probably real.

With the emergence of these more intelligent monsters, humanity was pushed back in the war. And not long, humanity perished. The world that you once knew are now in ruins with these monsters ruling the world. In the end they called these monsters daemons.

That all happened when I was asleep. When I woke up, I saw a world completely different form before I had an accident that put me in a comatose state.

I woke up in what looked like an abandoned medical facility. I did not know how I survived being here all along, but I did. I was disoriented and in shock when I went out and saw that the world was in ruin. I did not see a single soul in my first day out.

When darkness fell, it was the first time I have encountered a daemon. I was filled with fright and what I did was run for my life. The daemon who was moving like a leopard in all four feet was fast and caught up with me in no time. The daemon toppled me on the ground and snarled at me on top. I can see its sharp teeth while solely opening its jaws ready to take a bit off my head.

My whole body was frozen in fear, my eyes were wide looking at the daemon above me. What entered my mind was my daughter.

'I cannot die here without knowing what happened with my daughter.' The thought was running on my mind when the monster was on top of me. 'I need to survive!'

The daemon stopped his advances. We maintained eye contact for as long as I remember. That was when I heard a loud electric noise and a bang.

The daemon on top of me was hurled out by some force, fresh blood sprayed on me. When I looked around, I saw a group of humans wearing some kind of armored suit and carrying big guns with blue glowing lights.

"Are you okay?" The man in front asked me instantly. But I only looked at him in a daze. "Here, let me help you."

The group was able to kill the monster with their powerful weapons and I was taken in by them. The happenings after that were fuzzy but their community accepted me in and told me everything that had happened. Eight years had passed since my memory of the accident. They had told me how the human survivors have lived since then and how other surviving communities are either a friend or a foe. In this world it was kill or be killed.

I lived my life only wishing to find my daughter safe and alive. My only goal now was to find her. In the time that passed after waking up, I have notices changed in my body.

At first it seemed unusual that eight years have passed by, but I still looked like my twenty five year old self. At first, I did not think too much about it, but my body started to manifest powers. I started to show powerful strength, fast speed and agility that is not normal for a normal human being. I used these powers to help the community that took me in, but it also manifested fear on the people that was living there. My powers frightened them because it was not normal to have powers like me, they thought I might be similar to those daemons that were human in form.

My new life started in this apocalyptic world. I have only one goal and that was to survive and find my daughter or any of my family. I have wished that they were still alive.

Along the way I will encounter different kinds of daemons and how I found out that I have an ability to tame daemons.

I am Claudia and this is my story. This is the story on how I strived to live in this post-apocalyptic world ruled by the daemons. This is my journey on how I was called "The Monster Tamer".
