Chapter 4: Change
Hoi hoi! Lykantro here! I know that I took forever to upload this chapter, even when I already had written the chapter! But you know… school got in the way, the learning was too much… I certainly don't know why Americans complain about school in America. You can CHOOSE what you want to study there, for Gods' sake! We here have to study EVERYTHING! Math, English, German, Latin/French, Chemic, Physics, History, Psychology and Philosophie, Art (okay, we only draw, but nevertheless)/Music, Informatic, Biology, Geography (there is economy in this one), Geometry and Spanish (if we choose to)!
Ceincaled: Okay, you have bothered the long enough with your drama, Ly. Stop whining already and be the man you look like you are!
Kay~~~
Ceincaled: Ugh! Sorry about that, readers. He can be really whiney if he wants to be. Normally he is quiet and doesn't speak much. Heck even during writing this he is dead silent!
Oh yeah, you guys don't know Ceincaled, right? Well, she is my beta-reader! She really helps me writing the Story. Heck, she is the reason I finally decided to sit down at midnight and start writing this chapter! So be thankful!
Ceincaled: There he goes again… Whelp, anyways! Enjoy this Chapter!
"Lok"? That was the only sound that rang through the eerie silence of the room, before Lok once again collapsed onto the floor, rolling around seemingly in pain and crying out with a tone that got higher with every second. Sophie, Dante and Zhalia could do nothing but stare. Bur once Lok's tone got so high it shattered the window, they had to cover their ears. After a moment, they couldn't hear it anymore, but Lok still seemed to cry out in pain. And as to prove their theory, the glass-shards that were still stuck in the window frame started to shake violently. After about ten minutes, they stopped. And Lok was lying on the floor motionless like before he awoke.
10 hours later (10 a.m.)
Pain. That was the first thing Lok felt when he woke up. Or at least tried to. He also felt groggy, sore, exhausted and on whatever he was laying on, uncomfortable. Stretching, Lok climbed out bed and made his way downstairs to the living room. When he saw Sophie in the kitchen, he felt strangely relieved and made his way towards the kitchen counter. "Morning Soph." he half said half yawned, scratching his stomach. Startled, Sophie turned around to face him but when she did, she froze and her eyes grew as wide as the plate next to her. She also was at a loss of words it seems. "What's the matter? Do I have something on my face?" Lok asked. "… Well, that too, but have you looked into a mirror?" Negating it, Sophie told him to look into the mirror. When he was out of sight, Sophie started to count backwards from five. When she reached zero, she heard Lok screaming. Three seconds later, he stood in front of her again.
"Sophie! What the living hell happened!? Why do I look like, like…?"
"A fanatic Vampire fan that's cosplaying with vampire-like wings that are venom green with darker and lighter spots of green and two tails that come out of your lower spine and with whiteish-blonde hair with two bright-yellow eyes and with fangs? Yes, that is exactly how you look like." Sophie answered deadpan.
"B-But how did this HAPPEN? I can't remember anything since I left the house!"
"Lok! That's what I want to know, but first we should find a way to hide your wings. Hmm, maybe if you concentrate? No, that's too easy. Hmm…"
While Sophie rattled on with several ways that could work, Lok decided to go look for his titans. While he did not remember much, he still knew that he was followed and that he left his titans at the base. Making his way back up to the room, he had to be careful not to knock something off the shelves. To his surprise, the wings listened to every command he thought. They were like extra limbs. 'Kinda reminds me of Kipperin…' Lok thought, smiling.
When he reached his room, he looked around to find his amulets.
'Phew, looks like they are all here. Wait… where is Kipperin's amulet? No, don't tell me I forgot to take it off and he got stolen! No, please no!' When he was about to break down over the loss of his first titan and best friend, he heard an unfamiliar yet familiar voice in his head.
'Lok, it's okay. I wasn't stolen. When you were attacked, an ancient gene of yours awoke. It's a gene that allows you to form a bond with us the old way. By absorbing us. It was a gene created by Lord Casterwill for only the kindest seeker-soul that has a strong bond with its titans. Now you not only have seeker powers, but also titan powers. Furthermore, you can manifest our powers into armor and weapons, like what happened to you. You can control it, but the difficulty depends on the titan. It's just like you would command us through our power-bond. It's not easy, but you can do it. I believe in you. Oh, and we "live" in you. That means we are in your mind but can only speak to you, if you speak to us. That way you won't hear us in your head unless you want to. And if we need to speak or warn you, you will feel us. Also, if you allow us, we can take over the control of your body, but you'd have to wait until we give it back to control it again with your own will. During this time, you are in a coma-like state. Oh and… the others want to come in and protect you too. They are already levitating to you.'
"Wait, what do you mean with – " Lok never got to ask the question, because before he could, all his amulets shot at the speed of lightning into his body.
And that is all for now.
Ceincaled: Now was that really so hard?
No, not really, but like I said earlier, school is stressful and I didn't have the motivation to do it…
Ceincaled: Mhm. Well, are you going to show them your writing for a possible new story now or not?
Oh yeah! There was something like that! Here you go…
Beep.
He stares at the ceiling.
Beep.
The other person in the room he currently is in was looking at him.
Beep.
His vision started to fade.
Beep.
Apparently, the girl noticed the light in his eyes fading and started to scream.
Beep.
Other people came rushing in.
Beep.
With the last bit of strength he had, he started to smile.
Beep.
Before he closed his eyes, he said:
Beep.
"Goodbye"
Beeee…
How was it? Can you guess where this kind of thing is popular? It may surprise you, actually.
Ceincaled: I know where it's from since you told me and I still don't like it.
Yeah, anyways, I decided to put this story on hold since I just can't seem to get any new ideas soooooo…
Ceincaled: Wait… what? You never mentioned this! Are you actually going to-
Ta-Ta! Lykantro and Ceincaled Out!
