Two of a Kind 2
#3 of ~Two of a Kind~
"no need for formalities, its stupid." I pulled the bags up and laid them on the bed. "here you must be hungry"
"no its o.." I stopped and began to turn bright red as I wiped a good amount of drool that had leaked from my mouth uncontrollably.
"you'll learn to control that better over time" he said laughing hysterically, which only made me turn a brighter red. "just grab what you want, there's enough for the both of us I'm sure."
This time I kept me mouth shut and just gave a nod, as I grabbed a bag of burgers and began downing them one after another, I wasn't to worried about healthy eating, I was starved.
After we finished off the last of the fries from the bottom of the bags we just sat still in an awkward silence.
"you never told me your name" I said breaking the silence.
"its Blake" he replied, he had avoided looking at me.
"I want to know" I paused and waited for his reaction. "what's wrong with me?"
"what's wrong? Your alive what do you mean what's wrong?"
"you said my wounds had healed in just four days. that's not natural. I was shot I should be dead." I was making sure to keep my mind calm as I could this time so I didn't strain my body into blacking out again. "listen I can handle it, just tell me." there was a demanding tone in my voice now. In all truth I didn't know if I could actually handle what I was about to be told, but I wanted to know, no matter what it was.
"come on, we're leaving" he said as he picked up the trash and threw them away before walking out the door.
"hey you didn't answer me" I said running out the door. He had handed the room key to one of the workers, and continued walking ahead of me.
"you want to know what happened to you, then I'll show you." he said as I finally caught up to him.
"show me? Why cant you tell me?"
"because, I like watching you faint" he said with a goofy smile. I gave him an annoyed look as we continued to walk.
I reached into my pockets to find my phone. They were empty. I looked down at my pockets and had just noticed, these weren't my clothes. "hey where's my phone? I need to call my mom. And where are my clothes."
"your old clothes were covered in blood, so I threw them away, and your phone was with them." I replied giving a light chuckle "sorry"
"its ok I guess, but I need to get a hold of my mom, she is probably already pissed as it is." I caught him looking down with a saddened look on his face.
"listen its ok, I made sure to call her number from your phone, I told her you would be staying a week with me." it was a lie but had seemed to work as Caleb's head picked up with a slight smile.
"ok, where are we going again?"
"well first we head to see father and see what he thinks about all this. Lucky for you he's at work"
"why, what‘s so lucky about going to his work?"
"well he's going to be anything but happy. At least now he'll be around civilians, so he cant do anything to harsh."
"what is 'to harsh'" Caleb questioned behind me. "what exactly is going on, when do I get some kind of answer?"
"I don't really know how to explain anything right now, so just wait and figure it out"
"I'm not moving until you tell me what the hell is going on here!" the demand in his voice was obvious.
"fine you want to know, the ill show you, but you wont like it." I said as I walked to the street across from us and found a manhole and picked up the lid. "c'mon"
Caleb hesitated a few seconds before giving in to my gesture, and reluctantly came over beside me. "what, I'm not going in there."
"you want some answers right?" I said "don't worry alligators wont eatcha"
"fine, whatever." Caleb replied and edged his way to the hole in the ground and slipped down the ladder. "it's a bit dark down here" he yelled from below.
"don't worry, you wont want to see." I replied as I jumped into the hole , landing stiff on the ground, I didn't bother putting the lid back on to allow light flow over me. "I promise I wont hurt you."
"I cant say the same for you." Caleb was keeping a good distance from me out of fear I presumed.
I look directly into his eyes as I felt the change begin.
I watched as Blake started taking his shirt and shoes off in a hurried fashion before he fell to the his hands and knees and let out a loud groan in pain as I stared at what my mind knew was Blake, but my eyes kept telling me different. His whole body was changing, morphing into something else, his heels extended back as his feet became padded, thick black hair began growing around his whole body. I couldn't stand it anymore, I looked away in horror and disbelief, what was going on, what was this. Then I heard a Blake's voice from behind me, it was deeper and a bit rough, something else was there, it sounded like sadness but I was unable to tell. "Its ok you don't have to look if you don't want to." I didn't know what to do, I was scared, but I wanted to know. I had asked for this.
"ok" I said as I turned around to look into shining green eyes, Blake immediately turned his head away from mine, as if he was ashamed of himself. He had a muzzle like that of a canine, and his whole body was covered in solid black fur except for the underside of his hands and feet from what I could see they were covered in a black pad type of skin like the paws of a canine, sharp claws had extended out from the tips of his fingers and toes. His ears were now on top of his head standing straight up and triangular. His pants had tufts of fur hanging out from random rips that had occurred from them becoming over stretched. He stood at least 6 inches taller, he didn't stand flat footed like a human, but instead stood on the tip of his feet. I continued to stare him down, it was an amazing sight that I couldn't look away from.
i asked in the most serious of tones. "so, can i call you Fido? blake doesnt seem that good of a name for a dog." he turned his head with what I guessed was a smile showing off his muzzle full of sharp teeth as we both began to chuckle a bit, when something caught my eye, a furry tail was wagging behind him. "you have a tail?!" I exclaimed.
"yea, I have it all." he replied getting a somewhat grim look on his face. "this doesn't scare you at all?"
"nope" I said bluntly, lying a bit. "I didn't like the transformation thought, looked painful."
"it doesn't hurt all that bad, you get used to it." he said while picking his clothes up off the ground. "why aren't you afraid?"
"cause, if you tried something I could easily kick you tail" I gave a laugh that continued to grow, I was quickly joined, as he finally caught on to the ‘tail' joke.
"yea sure." the laughter was now coming to a silence.
"so when will I change?" I was serious now. "the animal bite was you. I know it was."
"well I bit you the two days after the full moon. So you still have a while." his tail had stopped wagging and just hung down by the ripped pants.
"what about family and stuff."
"well after this, if we don't die, I'll take you to my home, and we'll stay there till the new moon. After your first transformation you should be ok on your own." he started undoing his pants as I watched and gave a loud cough.
"hey, what exactly are you doing?"
"its to hard to walk in these pants like this, don't worry, as temping as it is I'm not going to rape you."
I didn't quite know if he was serious or not but I brushed it off and turned as he slid out of his pants and we began our walk through the sewers, a werewolf with purple boxers, and a confused ‘me'.
