First chapter of a random story I just decided to write. It's called Nunca OdieLo, which translates to Never Hate You. Title will probably change but I'll let you know about that later. Hope you all enjoy it. And just in case you're wondering, this will not be a slash, so that means no male on male, but there may be a little fluff, you know, just hugging and stuff. Oh and it will probably get extremely violent in some chapters, as it does a bit in this one, so you have been warned. Don't read if you don't like anything I just mentioned above. Also please don't send me flames going "I didn't like this it was nasty." If you do, please know that my answer is, "Get a life, I told you not to read it." Anyways...read on :D
The lab. It was a home just like any other. And his family all lived there. His very big family. 605 had six hundred and nine cousins. It's strange to imagine, but he didn't even know some of them. His only friend in the entire family was experiment 604. They were ignored and taunted by most of the other experiments mostly because of their personalities. But it wasn't their faults they were different was it?
Experiment 605 was a quite small experiment, with long fur that flowed a coppery gold colour. His large ears would flick curiously and his bushy tail would swish from side to side, but that was just how he was. He liked to go by the name Kale, for some unknown reason because he'd heard the name on a TV show once, but only 604 called it him, and Jumba occasionally. Kale was a very timid creature, who stayed out of everyone's way, but could easily put up a good fight if the occasion called for it. His sharp retractable claws made it incredibly easy for him to spear someone when he felt in the mood.
His closest friend was experiment 604, who was also his closest cousin, apart from 606, who he never spoke to. He was a pretty pastel yellow and pink furred experiment with large bright eyes and tall sensitive ears. He also had the extra advantage of becoming invisible when he needed to and that was extremely useful, especially when you lived in the lab. 604 always wanted to be with Kale, as he became scared at anything and would use Kale as protection. They loved each other like brothers and were always there for each other.
And this is where our story begins, where the only thing you have left in the world is another's welcoming hug. Dinner was a daunting task, as can be imagined with a family so large. Jumba overcame this problem by building a giant room, with four large trough like bowls in the centre. The food could then be poured into them through shoots that came out from the ceiling, and the experiments could come and go as they pleased. Kale and 604 always attempted to get to the feeding room as early as possible, to avoid everyone, and to get out just as quickly. That way they could hope to avoid the hassle that came when the larger and more popular experiments came to feast.
As the bell rang, signalling the experiments that dinner had been served, 604 and Kale quickly dashed along to the feeding room. Luckily, it was only occupied by a few of the quiet cousins. They picked a corner of one of the bowls and greedily gobbled down the paste like substance. It was Ingle flavoured in gravy today. Kale's favourite.
Kale and 604 ate quickly in silence and had finished within five minutes. They cleaned up and started to sneak out of the room. Unfortunately, that was exactly when 499 decided that he would make an entrance. 499 was one of the more popular experiments roaming the lab. He was large with crimson red fur and a long whip-like orange tail. He was adored by the female experiments for his "courage" and "bravery." He never strayed anywhere on his own and loved to pick on the weaker creatures. Of course he never did this without the support of his friends or under Jumba's watchful eye. He had occasionally called Kale and 604 but had never actually physically attacked them. How unfortunate it was for Kale to walk straight into 499.Kale bounced to the floor and 499 look angry but more surprised.
"Hey! Watch where you're going you little freak!" he grunted as he pushed Kale back down just as he had gotten up.
"Wow man, I'm sorry, don't stress" he muttered.
499 lurched forward and grabbed hold of the little gold experiments neck, squeezing tightly.
"What did you say to me?" growled 499 through gritted teeth. "You tryin' be funny or something?" Kale tried to respond, struggling for breath.
"No. I...said I'm..." He spluttered a little. "...Sorry."
"Good." Boomed the blood red bully, dropping Kale to the floor with unnecessary force. 604 dashed up to him, checking him all over and smoothing down his fur around his neck that was now stuck up all over the place.
"You alright?" he asked in a squeaky, worried voice.
Kale shakily stood up and took some deep breaths, soothing his aching throat.
"Yeh." He started angrily at 499's receding back. "God, some people need to learn to control their tempers." Apparently he commented this a little too loud, as 499 turned around with a glare that could put out fire. He began to charge.
"Great" growled Kale, spines emerging from his back, 604 leaping out of the way.
499 landed on Kale with more force than he had imagined, almost flattening the little creature, momentarily knocking the breath from him. They both flew across the floor into one of the feeding bowls, scattering the experiments who were trying to eat there. Everyone stopped and gathered around the two unevenly matched creatures struggling and attempting to hit one another.
Kale may have been smaller and weaker, but he was more agile and could easily dodge most of the opponent's painful blows. As they wrestled on the floor, 499 soon began to tire, and realised he was having little effect on the smaller experiments will or spirit. He made one final attack at showing his strength and lifted his giant paw, striking Kale across the face. He was slung across the floor, and smashed into the metal wall. He slumped onto the floor.
499 laughed triumphantly and his gang joined in the cheering. He turned away and limped over to an empty trough to begin his victory feast. Little did he suspect that the defeated gold ball of fur that was lying on the floor was actually pulling itself up and walking slowly towards him. As Kale neared 499, a low growl emanated from his throat and his eyes became dull orbs, staring, his only intention being to cause pain. He launched himself onto 499's back and decided that he'd had enough. He'd show everyone what he was capable of.
605's claws could retract in less than a second, and tipped with diamond, the strongest element anywhere in the galaxy, they were a formidable weapon. 499 found this out as they dug deep between his shoulder blades, just scraping the spine. No one could understand why he had just collapsed onto the floor, shaking and convulsing, screaming in agony. The entire room was stood, frozen to the spot, wondering what would happen next. Kale could feel the terrified stares from all around him, and every ear in the room turned at the sound of the claws, retracting from the flesh, and yet again scraping the bone. The tiny gold experiment jumped off the giant ball of withering red fur, and slowly padded towards the door, the crowd parting as he passed.
The blood started to drip, slow at first, then faster, until it was spreading from around the body, and making the drenched fur glisten, the green on the red. From among the midst of the onlookers, something had the intelligence to call out:
"Quick! Get Jumba!" It was then the experiments scattered, screaming in horror, and trying to find help. 604 stared in panic. What had Kale done?
Hope you liked the first chapter. It was cool to write anyway. Please let me know if you think I have a good story going here, and if you have any comments on the general way it's written, like description ect. Please let me know. Don't worry, I won't bite your head off. Unless you ask me to :P
