Wanting to Fit In

Ch 1

It was a normal day at Duloc High and Snowgre was bored in Home room.

His friend Mikaz was sitting next to him reading a comic book. "Man that sucks having to listen to the teacher. Her voice is like nails on a chalk board." He told Snowgre.

But Snowgre wasn't pating attention. He was listening to rock music on his MP3 player.

Sudden;y they heard the fire bells go off. Snowgre and Mikaz went with the rest of their class into the hall way.

There was a sreange black gas in the air.

Snowgre started coughing as he breathed the gas in.

Mikaz was freaked as his friend fainted.

"What do I do? I need to get somebody before it's too late." He thought as he saw a guy in a protective suit.

"Don't worry he'll be fine." The man told him.

"Where did the gas come from?" Mikaz asked worried.

"From the Chemistry lab." He answered Mikaz.

At Farbuck's Fiona's Swampberry cell phone began to ring.

Leah and Carley saw worry in her face as she talked on the phone.

"What's up? I brought muffins!" Shrek told them.

"Honey…. Now isn't the time for muffins. Something bad happened at Snowgre's high school.

There was an incident in the Chemistry lad making this gas roam the halls." She explained.

"What about Snowgre? Is he okay?" Shrek asked her sadly.

"He breathed in the gas and fainted. He's in rgw emergency room." Fiona answered as she and Shrek left.

"I hope Snowgre's alright." Carley said as she watched Leah eat a muffin.

"Yeah me too. We should go see if he's okay." Leah told her.

"Sure. Let's go there." Carley told her as they left.

Inside Snowgre, his body and DNA were changing. He was having strange dreams.

Fiona then saw Leah and Carley show up.

"We came because we care. And we're worried about Snowgre too." Leah said.

"Thanks guys but Snowgre's waking up." She replied.

Hours later Snowgre was in bed in his room at the swamp asleep.

He felt weird.

"I hope the kid's okay. He must be freaked by what happened in school today." He heard Shrek's voice say in his head as the elder ogre watched him sleep as he opened the door a crack.

Snowgre opened his eyes and turned on his lamp.

He looked at his body. Nothing physical had changed but it felt like inside he'd changed.

He then saw Mikaz's image in his mind clear as day.

Suddenly his body changed.

When he looked in the mirror, he saw Mikaz standing where he was.

He was freaked but watched as he changed back into himself. There was a light blue glow in his eyes when he did it.

"What happened to me?

Why did it make me a freak?" he said as he froze with fear...
