Ch.1
Byakuya growled as he walked calmly down the halls of the Sixth Division, he had been having strange dreams that placed him in irritation mode… he couldn't figure out why he was seeing a familiar girl in his dreams but couldn't place her voice or face because they were blurry. Suddenly he was attacked from behind and felt a needle enter his neck as some kind of liquid was injected, he made to capture the person but he became so dizzy that he passed out.
4 hours later…
Byakuya woke up with a groggy look to his eyes when he tried to stand up, he found he could only stay on all fours and felt like he was going to be sick. He "Crawled" towards the pool of water he could see, as he looked into the water, a pure black Unicorn stared up at him with a golden horn and an emerald gem at its base. Byakuya blinked as he wondered where his reflection was, he paused when he noticed the look of sleepy confusion on the animal's face and turned his head gently only for the Unicorn's reflection to do the same. Byakuya slowly started to wake up more as he tried to see where his reflection was but the unicorn blocked his attempts by copying…his actions.
Byakuya finally connected the dots as he snapped awake and tried to yelp only to hear a loud, panicking whinny from his throat, he backed away from the water as he looked at his new golden hooves where his hands should have been. Byakuya was in shock as he sat down and stared at his hooves dumbfounded, he racked his brain to figure out what happened then cursed softly as he remembered what happened in his own Division! Byakuya suddenly felt his stomach roar with hunger as he remembered that he hadn't eaten breakfast or lunch, he looked up and decided to see if he could find somewhere safe to eat and sleep before figuring out how to get back home and back to his original body.
He then walked through the woods he was in and came out on to a farm where they had a few animals such as cows and chickens but no horses from what he could see. He decided to head to the main house for now and see if they would feed him despite his form, he was nearly to the house when a young teenage girl looked out the window and saw him. She came out slowly as she held an apple or two in her hands and walked towards him, Byakuya watched her impassively as she approached and held out an apple to him as she softly said "Don't worry, no one will hurt you here…"
Amalthea blinked as the gorgeous unicorn stallion stepped forward and gently took the apple from her hand; she reached up and stroked his muzzle causing him to toss his head as he gave a look of "Why did you touch me?" to her. Amalthea giggled and gently held out the other apple for him causing the stallion to grab it then step back before she could touch him again. Amalthea smiled at the stallion but then noticed a thin stream of dried blood on his neck; she slowly stepped forward until she could see the wound and gasped at seeing the mark of a needle where the dried blood started.
Byakuya started when she gently touched the tender skin around the wound and tried to pull away when they both heard his stomach growl loudly, Amalthea smiled and gently coaxed the stallion to the barn where she placed sweetened oats in a feeding Trough along with some hay. Byakuya warily walked into the extremely large Stall and sniffed the food as his stomach roared in huger yet again, he sighed and gently began to eat as Amalthea closed the door quietly and ran to get the medical kit so she could clean the wound on his neck before it became infected.
She found he was done eating when she came back and was trying to get the latch open on the door to the stall, he looked at her with angry eyes as she reached out scratched behind his ears and said "Sorry for locking you in but I want to clean that needle mark wound on your neck before it became infected."
Byakuya looked at her in shock as she began to clean the wound gently and then noticed something he didn't notice before; she looked a bit like his deceased wife which made him feel a bit depressed that he quickly stamped down. He then noticed the door was opened and the girl was gone, he stepped out and headed for the door when the moon began to rise into the sky. He felt nothing but pain as the moonlight hit his body and clenched his teeth as his body began to change into something between Unicorn and human, the pain ended and he managed to stand up despite his new form making him feel like a long legged new born colt. Byakuya then heard a noise by the barn and turned to see a silver female that looked like him despite obvious differences in genders.
Amalthea stared in shock as she thought she had been the only one subjected to the mysterious liquid Dumbledore had injected into her, the day he betrayed her. She stepped out into the moonlight which made her fur light up with a dull glow; the male watched her in shock and wariness as she approached and then spoke in a somewhat familiar voice "Who are you?"
"I'm the girl who cleaned your neck wound from the needle…"
Byakuya's eyes went wide as he stared at the young teen and then asked "How is it you are suffering from the same thing I am?"
Amalthea sighed and motioned for him to follow her to the house so she could explain, Byakuya followed her and she opened the door then asked if he would like some tea while she explained her story. Byakuya nodded as she gave him a small smile then led him into a large kitchen where she got the kettle, filled it and then placed on to the stove as she said "I guess I should start at the beginning of my story…"
Byakuya listened in growing horror at her story as she told him everything about her life and how she wound up as a Unicorn/human hybrid, Byakuya then asked "You said that you saw the man that gave the liquid to Dumbledore, may I ask what he looked like?"
Amalthea described the man and Byakuya growled as he said "That's the captain of the 12th division! It would seem that he decided to test the serum again but on me this time…"
Amalthea sighed as she stood, walked over to the window and said "I've tried everything I could think of to reverse what they have done to me but it seems that it is permanent…the most I can do is control when and what form I change into…"
"So we're stuck like this, but why the form of a Unicorn?"
"From what I found out about the serum, it targets any magical creature inheritance no matter how diluted or little you have and brings it to the surface until your bloodline is half and half."
Byakuya paled at that as he looked at the girl who seemed so sad and perhaps…lonely? He shook his head free of the thoughts and then asked "Is there any way for me to return home at the moment? I must get back as soon as Possible to report what Mayuri has done."
"I…I don't know, but I can help you the best I can to get you home."
Amalthea then yawned as Byakuya looked at the clock as he realized what time it was and softly told her to go to bed and he would clean up the cups as a thank you for her help. Amalthea nodded and thanked him as she headed to her room to get dressed for bed; Byakuya kept his word and cleaned up the cups when she came out in a tank top and modified shorts, she then showed him to a guest room and said "Good night, Byakuya-san…"
Byakuya nodded and gave the same gesture as he got ready for bed and lay down for the night…
