A/N Hey guys Attero here. I have started the second Instalment of the An Evolved State Series. Hopes this turns out as good as I hope. Well here I go!

Humphrey's POV

You know those type of people how sit at the back corner of your classroom, never talk to anyone and always stick to the shadows. That's me. My names Humphrey, but I really doubt that anyone else knows that. I haven't talk to anyone in my high school, so no one has ever heard my voice. In fact I'm pretty sure I haven't talk to anyone other than my butler for 4 years. Some people think I'm mute but I'm not sure any more. I just, walk around and stick to places that are a far away from those who wish to talk to me.

The whole school knows about me, but no one knows anything about me. People have tried to get me to talk, to be the first people to say that they have heard me talk. All have failed to do so. My parents died the year before I went to high school. Before that fateful day I had, to some, the best personality you could have. Happy, cheery and whatnot. But after that I lost it, I became emotionless.

I'll tell you about me, you know for character development. After my parents died they left me a lot of money, I mean A LOT OF MONEY. At the age of thirteen I was a multi millionaire. I still am but know one knows. I own my parents estate which was left for me in their will. There are several Houses on the estate which people either rent or own. Two of those people being Kate's family and Garth. Speaking of girls ever since I lost my parents I lost all interest in love. Kate and Garth and a couple and Garth Bullies me. He doesn't realize or know that his rent money goes to me. I could evict him but, that's not who I am.

One day was a normal day for me. School, learning, boring. But I am trying to learn all I can to get a good job. Yeah I have enough money to last me a five life times but I want to do the job, I want, so life isn't boring.

It was Lunch I was sitting in the corner of the field by myself under the shadow of trees. I can sit here and no one will know I'm here. People sometimes pass by and talk about there 'deepest secrets. I have 'dirt' on everyone. Some of it can get people expelled, especially Garth I have enough on him to get him arrested. Frankly he doesn't deserve Kate let alone a girlfriend, HA, let alone friends.

I noticed something different this time Kate and her friends, they where looking for me. They were exploring the whole school. I've actually had to hide from them a couple times. To mention I was curious to why. After about 50 minutes of lunchtime The bell went signalling the last period has arrived. I just remembered Kate, all her friends and Garth are in my next class. I will have to get into the class before they get there. I liked this class. My spot was actually in the shadows right at the back corner. I doubt they'll see me.

I got there way before Kate, Kate's friends and Garth did. I frankly don't think that they know that I'm in this class. Kate and her group continued there quiet discussion after the teacher gave a quick explanation on the lesson before could full lazy and doing nothing to help us at all. I hated that, that's not what teachers where trained for. But what am I supposed to do. I must have slipped out of the shadows slightly, because Kate's friend… Melissa I think it was, spotted me and pointed me out to the rest of them. Damn. I put on a face of complete apathy and completed my work with half the lesson to spare. I leant back further in to the shadow of the wall hiding me from view.

The bell for the end of school echoed through my ears. I forgot the bell is right above me in this spot. Damn, it actually hurt my ears. I waited as everyone got up and left before leaving myself. I swiftly moved to my locker and grabbed my phone and car keys. I proceed to go to the pack parking lot. I had a feeling that I was being watched from two directions. I looked behind me a saw Kate's group attempting to act natural, and towards my car a saw Shaw and Landie sitting on my car. This annoyed me. I walked closer to my car, Shaw start talking to Landie.

"Hey Landie when do you think Humphrey will come and see us on his car" He said loudly so to mock me. "I don't want to get caught and beaten up by a weakling" he finished, emphasising the last word. Landie merely giggled at his comment.

I remained silent and reached for the driver's seat door. As started pulling it open Shaw pushed it shut again.

"Aren't you gonna say something Humphrey?" Shaw asked with a devious smile. Just as I thought this was another stupid attempt to get me to talk. I stood my ground and remained silent. I tried for the door again. But Shaw closed it again, but this time he pushed me pack as well. I turned away from him to get him to come closer to me, but I saw Kate's group and Kate watching intently from afar. I heard Shaw's footsteps behind me. I saw his reflection I the window of a nearby car. I regain my composure, and spun back around.

I turned and faced Shaw in the face, still holding my ground and remaining content on staying quiet. Shaw grew anger from this. He swung for my face, fist curled. His fist connected with my face, causing me to feel intense pain. The force of his punch spun me back round. I saw Kate and the other girls covering there mouth in horror, Garth though, must of thought I was his territory and got up to defend me but Kate pulled him back down. That might have been because Shaw was the strongest in the school, or so everyone thought.

I grew angry, and spun back around. Shaw saw the anger in my face and became intimidated. I quickly took control of my emotions again. Shaw also this and grew that stupid smug look on his face. He swung at me again. But this time I caught it, catching him by surprise. I forced it back and hit him in the face with my balled fist. He collapsed to the ground with a thump. Landie gasped and covered her mouth in horror. I walked over to Shaw, grabbed him by the collar and looked him in the eye. Hate clearly written in them, his face filled with fear. I threw him to the ground.

I got in my black 2015 Chevy Camaro. Surprising all of Kate's group. They must've thought had a different car. I drove off letting the engine rev loudly. I drove out the school gate and towards my estate. I believe Kate's group might have been following me. I turned down a quiet road, and to for-fill my suspicions a car about 100 meters up the road from me turn down it too. I had to loss them. I pulled up to the side of the road and waited. When they passed by I saw Kate looking at my car to see what I was doing. As she saw me I winked at her, she instantly grew a shocked fast. At the moment I could I kicked the gas and spun the car around on the spot and blasted of (metaphorically of course). I sped back down the road. As I came up tot he intersection I looked down both roads a saw no cars coming. Looking in the rear view mirror I saw Garth's car attempting to catch up but his Mercedes AMG C63 wasn't a match for me. I turned at the intersection fishtail as I did so and blasted down the road. I had lost them. I arrived at the estate gate and went in attempting to get to the main house before Garth and Kate arrived.

It being a Friday, they were bound to through a small party with Garth, his friends, Kate and her friends. They will be coming up to the mansion to ask for permission. They don't have to but Kate thinks its polite to do so. Especially since their house is on my land. I drove up to an empty garage a parked up my car and walked to the front door just in time to see Garth park his car up at the bottom of the hill to let Kate's friends out and continue to drive up towards the mansion just as I entered it. My butler, Terence came out a greeted me. I grabbed him and shuffled him facing the door. To say he was confused would have been a correct assumption. Before he could question why the bell rung and he realised why I did it. I left into another room and listened to the conversation.

"Greeting's Miss Kate, Mister Garth" He cheerfully greeted "How can we help you?"

"Well, we were wondering if we had the permission to throw a small party with about twelve people?" Kate asked informatively. Garth just nodded without emotion. He must have been angry that a lowlife like me had a better car than him and managed to get away from him. If only he knew all the other cars I have.

"Miss Kate, you know the lord of the estate does not mind your party's. As long as you keep them relatively under control." Terence reassured. This time Garth chimed in.

"Yeah were very sorry about last time. We truly didn't invite Shaw. He just shows up thinking he's boss" Garth said embarrassed. I walked away not showing myself. I walked around the house a bit. I truly like this house. It was big like, mansion size, but It wasn't old like most mansions' this was completely modern (Think Tony Stark's house for ref, but with more squares and rectangles) It was also the largest in Jasper and sat on the largest estate within the state. But no body knows who the owner is their really illusive. I chuckled to myself at that thought, knowing it was me who owned this estate, the house, and the Hydroelectric Dam that supplied Jasper and other city's with power and water.

I was about to walk out on to the front room landing. When I heard Kate's voice. And I pulled myself back into the room.

"Hey Terence when will we ge to meet the owner of this estate I haven't meet him yet?" Kate questioned.

"I'm sorry Miss Kate, you know the lord of the estate likes to remain a secret to others" He replied.

"OK" Kate said rather dissapointed

"Terence, Who is it!" I yelled

"Miss Kate and Mister Garth!" He yelled back at me.

"I'm guessing for a party, tell them its fine as long as that kid" I paused to act like I was trying to think. "Shaw, that's it, doesn't come around!" I finished.

"OK Thank you! We will tell you if Shaw arrives uninvited. Bye!" Kate Yelled.

Now that there gone I went back to doing what I usually do after school, play video games. As I walked to the main lounge I passed by Terence. I gave him a quick hug, since he is basically a father figure to me. He raised me after my parents died. If anyone deserves this life I live, it was him. I greeted him and said thank you for talking to Kate and Garth. He was happy to oblige. I told him about the fight I had with Shaw and the car chase. At the end he just chuckled to himself and walked away with that strange swagger he walked with. That was not the reaction I thought I would get. I continued to walk back towards the lounge passing by the gym in the process. That was how I bet Shaw I'm actually significantly stronger than him and everyone else in the school.

I entered the lounge and started playing some games.

Several hours later I was re-playing Resistance 3. I don't know I actually really like this game. The music from Kate's party boomed through out the estate. I looked out the window. I remember Kate's last party, it was huge some people tried to break in to my house but could never break in. that what you get with bulletproof glass and a structure capable to survive a thermobaric explosion and doors with metal plates on the inside. My father had enemy's OK jeez don't judge. I'm pretty sure there are spots on the rook with deployable AA guns but I've never found it. A man can dream, right. I looked out to the front gate. I gasped as I saw two Dodge Rams with tow cables attached to the gate trying to pull it down. That gates strong but I won't last much longer. I recognize those Dodgers. That's Shaw and his little gang.

"Terence call the police, we have intruders trying to break on to the property!" I yelled as I ran to another phone "I'll warn the party goers!"

I pressed a speed dial button on the phone that connected to Kate's house and let it dial. I know for a fact the Kate's parents are out of town, that's probably why Shaw's trying to get to her party's now. Finally Kate answered

"Hello?" Kate asked

"Hello Kate its the lord of the estate." I began but she cut me off.

"Oh sorry was the music too loud I'll turn it down." She said almost in a panicky tone.

"No, no its fine. It's just that I think Shaw's trying to breakdown my gate so I'm warning you be careful"

"Oh what, OK thanks" Kate said almost with fear in her voice. I heard her talk to her friends "Guys Shaw's coming what do we do?"

"Kate Terence has called the police, if you don't feel safe come up to the main house" I said in a way to calm her down.

"oh that would be great if we could come now" She said "is that OK?"

"Sure but hurry he's nearly pulled down the gate" I said. After that she hung up. I looked down at her house and saw the group get into two cars and drive up the driveway. And park just beside the garage. They all got out a came to the front door where Kate rang the door bell, just as Shaw and his Gang ripped the titanium steel gate off its hinges causing a loud crash to echo through the estate. The dodge rams did a one eighty, disconnected from the gate and sped up the driveway stopping at Kate's house where a bunch of them jumped out. Terence let Kate and her group of party goers in and closed the door, locking it. Shaw and his group found nothing of interest in Kate's house. They did knock her door down though. They quickly drove up the drive way to my house and stopped, skidding across paved ground they jumped out of the back holding crowbars and bats as well as other blunt objects. They ran up to my front door and attempted to kick it down only to fail. Shaw stepped out of the truck wearing a thick leather jacket he walked around to the other side of the truck, opened the door, and helped Landie out, as a way to mock how most posh rich people act. He turned with an evil grin plastered on his face.
