Welcome to the World of Darkness

BANG! A tree explodes where my head had been a moment before. 'Why the hell is he chasing me?' I wondered as I sped through the forest. A fallen log was blown to pieces as I leapt over it. My heart was pounding in my chest and my legs and lungs were screaming at me to stop, but on I ran. Ducking, weaving, jumping, yet never getting far enough away from my pursuer.

After what felt like hours, I found myself flat on my face, tripped up by a gnarled root. As I lay there, dripping with sweat and gasping for air, I though 'I'm gonna die'. The crunch of boots broke me out of my thoughts. I rolled o my back, facing my pursuer.

The moon was but a sliver in the sky, so I couldn't see his face, but his gun that was pointed at my chest was clearly visible.

Cense the chase had started, he spoke to me. He said, " Sorry, but his is for your own good, son." as he cocked the gun.

At that moment, somewhere inside me, a fuse blew. I let forth an ear-shattering screech, more animal than human. Suddenly, my whole body began to ripple and bubble and morph into….something. My arm shrank and lost their fingers, while my leg grew shorter and more claw-like. A long, yellow beak grew where my mouth and nose used to be. And my entire body sprouted glossy, black feathers all over.

As soon as that was over, I spread my new wings and shot upwards like an arrow. After the shock, my father popped off a few shot, but by then, I was out of there.

Once I got flying figured out, I realized I had nowhere to go. I had no friends, no family other than my mom and dad, and heading back there was probably not the best of ideas. I didn't know how I was going to survive on what little money I had, but I could figure that out tomorrow after some sleep. Running through the woods with your father's chasing you with a gun and make oneself tired.

After a few minutes, I found an abandoned house that didn't look too run down. With a swoosh of my wings, I flew through the open window and alighted on the bed. Tucking my head under my wing, a few thoughts drifted through my mind. 'how and why had I changed into a crow? Where there others like me, and if so, could I find them?' But soon, I was too tired to think, so I drifted off into a dreamless and greatful sleep.

Well, hope u liked my first chapter! I know it's not very long, but the ones to come will be longer! not sure when next one's coming out, but i'll ge it out ASAP
