The Adventures of X
How He Got Infected
I was walking through the woods and wound up in this strange building. I don't know how, was just walking. There was a sort of stinky thick green fog. I couldn't see anything or hear, because something was moaning in the distance. It started getting louder, and then it stopped. Suddenly out of nowhere something bit me twice, once on the back, and then the head. Then I was kicked in the stomach and hurdled into the wall. Everything went black.
I woke up in a hospital. And Brittney was asleep beside my bed holding my hand. I must've woken her up because she yawned, so I asked "What day is it."
She said "Tuesday."
Monday was when I was bitten which was yesterday. But I'm not hurting, and as hard as I hit that wall I should've been out for at least two days. Brittney opened her eyes and looked at me.
She gasped and I asked "What's wrong."
She said "L ll look in t the mirror."
I went into the bathroom. And as I looked in the mirror I was awestruck. My pupils and iris were gone. My eye teeth were sharper. There were three sharp spikes jutting out four inches from the back of my head. One was at the top of my head sticking straight out, and curving straight down at the floor. The other two were at the bottom jutting out from the part my skull near my place my ears should've been, and curving straight up at the ceiling. My ears were on top of my head, and they looked like cat ears, but bigger like fox ears. I had grown taller. My hands were bigger. And I had a big thick tail sticking out under my pelvis. I was skinnier, yet broader. And my rib bones grew bigger making me broader in that area. My feet didn't grow, but my legs got longer. I turned around to look at the bite mark, and there was no bite mark. It also looked like I had two spinal columns. I moped out of the bathroom, crawled on the bed, buried my head in the pillow, and started crying.
Brittney said "Why are you cryin'."
I said real sadly while crying "Cuz my life is screwed."
After I calmed down, the doctor walked in and said "Austin you have FSEDX."
"Any other detail I should know about." I said
Then the doctor said "Figure Shifting Electric Deficiency X."
I asked "What's the X stand for?"
"The X stands for the case of the disease and it's the only case here, you skipped through to the final stage over night. And obviously it didn't kill you because you're still alive, because it killed every other test subject except you." Said the doctor
"So does that mean this is a test lab?" I asked
"N no." the doctor said
"Whatever." I said
"Okay Austin you can go here's some clothes that should fit you." The doctor said
I put on the clothes, and then we left. You might've thought we got home safely. Well you're wrong. Someone tried to attack Brittney and I went ballistic. I started to foam at the mouth, my eyes turned a little red, and I tried to rip his head off, if Brittney hadn't pulled me off of him, I would have. He swung at me and I caught his hand and squeezed it so hard, that I broke his hand and his wrist. Brittney and me both heard it. She almost puked, and I kicked him in the stomach. He went sailing, and I was about to go after him but Brittney held me back, while saying
"It's not worth it."
I still would've gone after him, but she held me till I calmed down. The guy I punted wasn't alone. One of his friends was watching us. He had a gun, and was aiming right at my head. He got a perfect shot right between the eyes. The bullet just bounced off and fell to the ground, as if someone threw it at me. I didn't think, I just took off running at him as fast as I could. I made it over there in five second flats, and it was a few yards away. I grabbed him by the neck, and slammed him in the ground, making a crater, while busting his head open. I gave Brittney a piggy back ride to her house. Then I went home. Apparently, I scared my dad because he pushed me out, and told me to go away. So I walked to Brittney's house, and asked if I could stay a while. She asked why, and I told her. She asked her dad, thankfully he said yes. I hugged him so hard he couldn't breathe. Then I looked at Brittney. She just stared back, with her beautiful eyes. I started to think about myself; then I got a bad feeling that Brittney wouldn't love me anymore because I'm a monster. Well something shocking happens the next day.
