Jack decided to help him, or at least try to save someone. He picked up a piece of metal from the ground and threw it towards the nearest satyr.
He let out a short yell upon the hit and from that moment Jack took the advantage, grabbed the boy's shoulder and they ran as fast as they could, from street to street, alley to alley, they even didn't look back.
After a while, when they were completely exhausted and they did not hear the knocking sound of hooves, they stopped. The boy couldn't even stand and landed on his butt, gasping heavily.
"Th... Thanks...! That... was... close..." Squeezed out the boy between his gasps.
"Nothing. I'm Jack." He said and offered is hand.
"Jared." He answered and accepted his hand and stood up.
"Where did they gone?" Asked Jared, now looking back.
"I don't know, but I don't think they gave up, so we have to keep moving. Carefully!" Said Jack and although this intense run was much even for him, they moved.
"We have to find some clothes for you..." Said Jack, looking at Jared's T-shirt remains.
"Yeah... I try to escape from them since three days, but among them are my brother Rob, you maybe saw him and he's extremely determined to catch me and turn me into one of them. Our parents are transformed too, but they gone right after it. He was a good bro, but after he got infected four days ago, he became that... sex crazed monster." He said.
"I'm sorry... I lost my parents too, when they attacked our house, I don't know where are they, or are they even humans... and now in that horde I saw my best friend Tommy as a satyr..." Answered Jack.
The two kept up this small talk as they continued their journey towards some kind of safe place. However, not all was as it appeared. For the moment the two turned onto a nearly empty street, a bleat rang out. Frozen in fear at the satyr like sound, the pair turned behind them and saw the satyr that was once Jared's brother Rob.
His muscular chest stood stark naked as the sun glistened downwards. Sweat could be seen tracing the pectoral muscles on his chest. The brown fur that covered his legs and nether region was damp, and the musk could be smelt all the way on the other side of the street.
"RUN!" Jack screamed before bolting towards an alley, Jared not far behind him.
The two jumped over overturned trashcans and around dumpsters trying to lose the satyr behind them, but it was for naught. Rob used his cloven feet to gain ground where the humans had to take time lest they injure themselves. Before too long, both Jared and Jack were cornered against a metal wired fence. It was too tall to simply climb. The only way they could get through it was, if they helped each other.
Thinking quickly Jack spoke to Jared.
"Give me a lift, once I'm on the other side I will lift you up!" He was rushed, the satyr was catching up to them.
Jared looked at him with wide eyes, but then quickly nodded. Getting down on one knee, he braced himself and watched as Jack used their combined height to propel himself on top of the fence.
"Grab on!" Jack said as he bent forward just enough to wrap his hands around Jared's arms.
He stared pulling when a sudden fierce resistance made him stop. Jared looked terrified and Jack soon saw why. Holding onto the teens legs was his brother.
"Don't let go of me!" Cried Jared with desperate look, but Jack wasn't strong enough to pull him any higher.
They were stuck in a sort of stalemate. Or, they would've have been, if not for the horde of four another satyrs - including Tommy - approaching from behind Rob.
He held Jared’s arm, as strong as he could, but seeing the other satyrs approaching and knowing that even one of them is stronger than him, he realized, they were lost, or at least Jared was lost. Jack knew he had to make a choice here and now; let go Jared and maybe he can escape, or both of them will be caught by the satyrs and in all probability transformed.
