Normal POV
Sirens filled the air as handcuffed scientists were being filed out of a building and into the police cruisers. Soon all were locked away and being led to prison for illegal experimenting.
"Do a final sweep of the perimeter and then we're out of here" ordered one of the cops, a subordinate nodded and re-entered the laboratory, after a quick look through he was about to leave when he spotted a door on the ground. Quickly calling for backup he waited until five more cops appeared. Kneeling beside the hidden door he hefted it up and shone a light into it revealing stairs. Gesturing for a cop to go in, one by one they stepped to the bottom shining a light they quickly went down the hall way opening and closing doors only to find them empty. Soon they found themselves in a wide circular room; looking around one cop shrugged his shoulders
"Looks like it's a dead-end, let's go back" he said turning back but stopping when he heard a rattling noise, slowly looking up to find a metal cage being suspended by chains. One of the cops stepped back and accidently stepped onto a loose stone, a grinding noise soon filled the room and the cage was slowly being lowered. The cops instinctively raised their guns and eyed the figure huddled in the corner of the cage. One of the cops cocked her gun when she heard a whimper, pausing for a moment she stepped closer to the cage and focused on the figure a bit more; it was very small, almost child-like.
"Shit" cursed the lady cop as she put her gun away
"What the hell are you doing, shoot it!" ordered one of the cops
"It's just a kid" said the lady cop in awe, she moved closer but the child just let out more whimpers
"Shh now hun, don't worry, I won't hurt you" assured the lady cop in a soothing voice, after a few long tense minutes the child slowly uncurled itself and crawled carefully into the light revealing what looked to be a three year old pink-haired girl with startling clear calculating green eyes. Dressed in only a dirty white t-shirt that went a bit past her feet, but what gathered the most attention were the black with pink tipped wolf ears that sat atop her head twitching every so often, and two black lines that fell down her cheeks like tears starting at the outer corner of her eyes and disappearing beneath her shirt.
When the lady cop moved to get closer the little girl bared her teeth revealing sharpened canines and growled, the hair on her arms standing up and strangely enough golden feathers stuck out on the side of her head where her ears should have gone were they human, it was three feathers on each side, another round of gasps ensued.
"W-what is this thing?" asked one of the cops horrified, the lady cop glared,
"She is a result of those bastard scientists who think they're god, I wonder what else she has?" mused the lady cop, the girl cocked her head and locked eyes with the lady cop, slowly the hem of her shirt rose and a long brown tail with three pink rings around the tip, it unwrapped itself from her leg and stood up to her head curling a bit like a monkeys, another three gold feathers stood on where the tail curled. The lady cop looked at the girl who stared at her with an unreadable expression on her face.
"Um, anything else?" she asked, the girl looked pensive for a moment before having her tail raise the sleeve on her right arm showing a tattooed brand of the roman number IV. The lady cop went to touch it when the girls tail wrapped around her wrist tightly, hissing warningly.
Everybody in the room froze while the lady cop slowly lowered her head to show she meant no harm, slowly the tail unwrapped itself leaving a red mark in its place. The lady cop kneeled in front of the little girl
"What's your name?" she asked, the child looked at her then pointed to her arm
"Four?" asked the lady cop, the child just shook her head
"iee-vee" sounded out the child slowly; the lady cop narrowed her eyes at this
"I see, well I.V. do you want to get out of here?" asked the lady cop, the child eyed the cop warily
"au-oo-t, he-ere?" asked the child scrunching up her nose at the foreign words coming from her, the lady cop nodded and held out her hand, the other cops watched in awe as the child sniffed her hand before placing her tail in it, the lady cop blinked incredulously at this and then chuckled softly.
"What do we tell boss?" asked one of the cops,
"Nothing, she doesn't exist and we're going to keep it that way. I know a place where no one will find her, agreed?" she ordered, they all nodded
"Good now go tell boss its all clear, I'll go drop her off" she ordered, and soon enough they went back down the hall way and up the stairs. The lady cop and I.V. went out of the building when all of the cars left the area. The lady cop approached her cruiser and had I.V. climb into the passenger seat and then drove off the opposite direction the other cops went. It was a very quiet drive and the lady cop could practically feel the child's stares, getting slightly nervous the lady cop decided to strike up a conversation.
"So, um, I.V. how old are you?" she asked, in response I.V. raised her tail and had the feathers stand up. Three. The lady cop sweat dropped,
"Right, well do you know if you were born there?"
The response was a blank stare and a nod of the head.
Needless to say the lady cop didn't try to start another conversation.
They arrived in front of the orphanage about an hour later, the lady cop rushed to open I.V.'s door.
"Ok I'm going to need you to hide your tail and to wear this hat" she ordered putting the hat on her head, her only response was to hide her tail and hop out of the car. She silently wobbled after the lady cop, the lady cop rang the door bell and patiently waited. Soon enough an old man answered the door
"Sherri? My isn't this a surprise, another package I presume?" he asked looking at I.V. with amusement, Sherri gulped a bit and nodded
"Something like that, may we discuss this in your office?" she asked, confused the old man nodded and led the two into his office, after locking his door he went and took a seat. Taking a deep breath Sherri spoke
"This isn't your normal orphan" she started, the man raised a brow
"She was created" both brows were raised at this
"What do you mean, created?" asked the man, nodding to herself Sherri picked IV up and set her on the table. She then took off her hat, revealing black with pink tipped wolf ears
"Show your tail I.V." ordered Sherri, IV glared at being ordered what to do but obeyed none the less.
The look on the old man's face was of shock and awe, "This can't be real" he whispered reaching out to touch the girl but was stopped by the tail with the gold feathers sticking up, he looked up and the girl to see the feathers on her head vibrating slightly, she was growling at him in warning
"I can't have this here, do you know what people would say if they saw her! And she probably isn't even smart enough to keep up with the other students" he remarked sadly, Sherri gasped
"So that's it, you're going to leave this little girl to live out in the streets. She'll be killed!" Sherri yelled the last part, the man looked away guiltily "Fine I'll keep her here, but she will be kept seperate from the others until i am sure she can keep up intellectually wise and not harm the others" he said sternly
Sherri let out a breath of relief, "That's more than enough, thank you Watari" she said leaving the orphanage in a rush. Watari entered a staring contest with I.V. before he gave up seeing as how she wasn't going to budge
"What's your name little one?" he asked,
"I.V." she responded, he gave her a strange look but nodded none the less
"Yes well my name is Watari, can you repeat that?" he asked, she scrunched up her nose in distaste before attempting to sound out the foreign word
"Waa-taa-rii" she repeated by breaking the word up, Watari pursed his lips a bit
"Close enough, how old are you?" in response she held up her three feathers
"Can you tell me what number that is?" he asked, she tilted her head in confusion
"Do you not know how to say numbers?" he asked incredulousy, she glared at him sensing his disbelief
"Not know how" she repeated,
"Hmm, so you can understand what i'm saying?" he asked, she nodded
"But you don't know your numbers?" he stated, she clenched her teeth
"I can repeat, I understand, but I don't know how to say" she said brokenly, he stared at her in wonder realizing what exactly she was trying to explain
"I see, well it's been a long day. I'll show you to your room, and tomorrow we will begin your lessons. Do not leave your room, understand" he said sternly, she glowered at him and a growl formed in her throat
"Understand" she repeated jumping off the desk and following him out of the room, they walked down many corridors but I.V. memorized each one, formulating a map within her mind. After a couple minutes of walking they had finally arrived before a plain wooden door, Watari took out an old key from his pocket. He unlocked the door and opened it wide for I.V. to get through, she entered the room with extreme caution eying the foreign objects with suspicion. Watari noticed this and decided to ease her somewhat
"This is a room, over there is the bed, that is where you will sleep. There is the dresser, I will purchase clothes for you to place there. That door there will lead you to the bathroom, that is where you will clean yourself and use the toilet" he explained, she nodded to him but did not move from her spot in the middle of the room
"Right well, I will be going to bed. Remember stay in this room and I will see you in the morning" he said closing the door and locking it from the outside leaving I.V. alone in the room. She walked herself to an empty corner and sat in featus position wrapping her tail around her lags, just like that she fell asleep, and dreamed of running through a forest.
