"Are you kidding me!? What type of bear is this!?" shouted Natasha.

"Oh, my G.o.d it's evolving to the next level!" whispered Matt as he saw the Black bears wound healing at a incredibly fast rate. Matt had never been in a fight with a level 2 mutated animal where he had to use a gun to kill them. Whenever he met them he was on a level higher than them and so was his kukri but here fighting against, no running from a level two mutated animal he was shocked by the hardness of it's skull.

No one except Natasha heard him but that didn't mattered as the bear had almost reached them and was getting ready to swipe his claw at them.

"I am not ready to die" thought Matt as he looked down at the bears leg then smiled.

"Rrrrawwwrrr" the bear roared as he stood at it hind legs and swiped his right paw at them.

"Jackpot" said Matt as he positioned the barrel down and pulled the trigger

*BANG*

"AAaaooo" cried the black bear in pain as he fell down on the ground but still his paw landed on the hood of the safari.

*Crash* *Rip* The 10 inch long bear's paw landed on the hood ripping it up.

"AAAaaahhh!!" cried the tourists as Natasha control of the safari and it turned right, breaking the steel wires and entering the forest.

Matt dropped the rifle on his lap and took the steering from Natasha and tried to swerve it around but the steering wasn't working anymore and they were heading straight for a tree.

"Ah!What f.u.c.king luck!" Matt said as he stepped on the break and pulled the handbrake as well.

The safari stopped right in front of the tree instead of cras.h.i.+ng into it.

"Ahh!" Thank G.o.d!" "We are alive" "We survived" the tourists started whispering and thanking G.o.d but Matt knew that the danger was not over yet.

Jumping out of the Safari while holding onto the Rifle he went back towards the road and saw that the Black Bear was still lying on the ground but he wasn't dead yet.

Making his way towards the Black Bear, Matt didn't saw Natasha following behind him. He stopped when he was just standing a meter away from the Black Bear and looked at him.

"Raawwwrr" even though laying on the ground Matt could hear and see the savage expression of the Bear.

Not wanting to waste anymore bullets he aimed the rifle at its eyes and pulled the trigger.

*BANG*

This time the bullet did it's work and the Black bear died finally after taking 5 bullets of 17 HMR or 22 WMR.

The moment he killed the Black Bear a notification on a blue colored interface appeared in front of him as a voice rang in his ears as well.

[Mission - Kill a Level 3 Mutated Animal (Mission Accomplished)]

[2 survival points]

[+2 survival points for overcoming the odds of fighting a level 3 Mutated animal as a normal human]

[Total Survival Points - 4]

Seeing the notification Matt said "System make sure that these notifications don't come when I am in combat, I don't wanna die like that."

Sometimes a small mistake can lead to death in the apocalypse and Matt didn't wanted his systems notifications to become one such mistake.

[Noted]

"How did you take him down before this!?" came Natasha's voice when she saw that the bear had stopped moving.

"He was a male" replied Matt.

"SO!?" asked Natasha in confusion.

*sigh* "I shot him in his b.a.l.l.s" Matt replied while taking a deep sigh.

"Oh! That was good for a minute I thought I was dead" said Natasha.

"No! You were good, while others freaked out you kept your mind cool and did your job well" Matt said as he looked at the girl with appreciation as he knew that if not for this girl the chances of everyone surviving would be almost zero.

"He he he..... Thank You!" said Natasha with a cheeky smile.

Before Matt could say anything else the other tourists came back to the road following the guide who looked more fl.u.s.tered then earlier.

"What happened!?" asked Matt as he looked at the guide which hasn't been helpful at all.

"The safari won't start!" said the Guide.

"That's a given, after taking the paw of such a bear we all didn't crashed that's already a miracle, wanting the safari to work anymore is asking for too much" Matt stated.

"Then what should we do!?" asked the guide.

"I saw a safari right in the place where the Black Bear jumped us first, so if you all follow in this road you all will be able to reach it in no time" replied Matt.

"Why!? Aren't you going to come with us!?" asked Natasha when she heard Matt's words.

"No I want to check something from this bear first, then move it out of the way so that other animals don't come here from the scent of his blood" Matt replied.

"OH! then maybe someone should stay behind to help you!?" stated Natasha.

"I don't think so! The chances of other animals such as wolves coming are high. I don't think anyone would like to stay here and take their chances" said Matt with a smile.

Hearing those words of Matt everyone shrinked back seeing which Natasha could only shake her head at their cowardinance.

"Here take this rifle with you! Make sure to use this properly you have only 5 bullets left in the Magazine" Matt said pa.s.sing on the 93 MINIMALIST BROWN rifle to the Guide.

"Don't worry! I have more ammunitions in my bag" said the Guide taking the rifle from Matt.

"Then that's good!" Matt said as he squatted down near the dead body of the black bear.

Seeing that Matt got busy, everyone followed the guide towards the safari that Matt saw earlier except Natasha who was still standing there.

"You should go as well! None of them have a good head on their shoulders only you will be able to help them if they get into some problem again" Matt said

"I will, But please catch up to us fastI don't think I can talk to anyone at all" Natasha said as she ran and catch up to the others.

Seeing Natasha leaving as well, Matt took a deep sigh of relief and said "Thank G.o.d she finally left, Now let's get my loot"
