hello everyone, here's another chapter for you! i'm glad you're getting enjoyment out of this story so far, and i'll try to have another chapter up soon.
DISCLAIMER: I do not own Hellboy or any of the movie's characters. I only own Julia
I followed close behind Hellboy and Abe. "So this Professor Broom guy might be able to help me?"
Abe nodded. "Oh yes, he'll be sure to get things squared away" they led me into another room at the end of the hallway. It looked like some sort of office.
"Pop, you in here?" Hellboy asked. There was a big, high backed chair behind a big desk. The chair, which was facing away from us, suddenly swiveled around.
There was Professor Trevor Broom, looking as if he was expecting us. "Ah, I see the young lady is up and about" he smiled slightly.
I blushed. "Uh, yep, I sure am"
"It's nice to meet you my dear. What is your name?"
"I'm Julia, Julia Wayne"
"well Ms. Wayne, I welcome you to the Bureau of Paranormal Research and Defense"
I smiled a little. "Thank you Sir"
"So you are a shape shifter?"
I shrugged. "Apparently. That's what Abe said" I nodded toward him. "But how do you know I can become things other then a giant wolf?"
"We don't" Abe said. "But if you'd be wiling to go through a few exercises, we might be able to find out"
I frowned a little. "Well, I suppose... I would like to know what else I can do"
"Excellent" Professor Broom said.
...
20 minutes later...
"Dude, I don't know if I can do this" I looked over at Hellboy, Abe, and Professor Broom.
"Just concentrate" Abe said. I sighed and closed my eyes, taking a deep breath. "I don't even know how I transformed the first time. What if I can't...?"
"No use being negative" Hellboy said. "You'll be fine Kid"
"Not to be rude, but I have a name" I said. "It's Julia"
"Concentrate" Abe said. "Try thinking of something you'd like to be"
"well... I did always have a thing for unicorns..." I froze. My body suddenly felt strange. I looked down at myself. I had four long legs and hoofed feet. "I did it!" I cried, smiling. I was a unicorn!
"Can't you turn into something less... wimpy?" Hellboy asked.
I frowned, feeling my ears droop.
"I think she did very well" Abe said.
I blushed, smiling at him. "Ok Hellboy, I'll show you wimpy" I closed my eyes again and thought... I felt my body shift and when I opened my eyes again, I saw that I was huge, I barely fit in the building.
"A dragon... not bad" Hellboy said.
I smiled, extending my long wings. "This is awesome!" I shouted.
"Try thinking of your human form" Abe said.
I nodded and did so. Seconds later I was back to my normal self. I smiled at the guys. "Wow... how come I never knew I could do all that before?"
"I'm not sure" Abe said.
"It could be that you've had your powers all along" Professor Broom said. "And they are just now manifesting... how old are you Julia?"
"17, I'm going to be 18 soon"
"hmm... it could be that your powers were dormant up until now"
I sighed.
"You did very well my dear" Broom continued.
I smiled. "Thanks Professor"
but there was one thing that was still bothering me.
...
Ten minutes later, we were back in the library where Abe's aquarium was kept. He was inside, swimming around.
"Julia?"
"Yes?"
"May you turn the pages for me please?" Abe asked, motioning toward the four books that were on pedestals outside the tank.
I smiled. "Of course Abe" I walked over and turned one page of each book.
"Thank you"
"Not a problem" I sighed and went over to the couch, sitting down. I subconsciously began wringing my hands nervously.
"You ok Kid?"
I stiffened at the sound of Hellboy's voice. I turned and saw him coming toward me. "Oh crap, please don't say anything stupid!" I told myself. "Just stay cool" I flinched a little when the big red demon sat beside me on the couch.
"What's the matter?"
I shook my head. "Nothing"
"Don't try to pull that kind of crap with me. Now come on, what's wrong?"
I sighed. "Professor Broom said he called Tom Manning..."
"Oh great, that means that jerk is coming here" Hellboy grumbled.
I sighed again. "Apparently it'll be up to him whether or not I can become an agent for the Bureau"
"Don't sweat it Julia, you'll do fine" Hellboy said. "If Manning tries to pull any shit, I'll kick his ass for ya"
I giggled. "Thanks Hellboy"
"No problem"
I was a little surprised that Hellboy was being so nice to me. Form what I could gather, he wasn't usually this friendly with newcomers. "I wonder why he's being so nice" I thought.
A few seconds later, Professor Broom came over to us. "Manning is on his way" he said.
I groaned, rubbing my face with my hand. The moment of truth was coming... was I going to impress Manning enough that he'd let me stay? I sure hoped so.
well, how was that? i'll try to update A.S.A.P, so be on the lookout for the next chapter! oh, and i just thought i'd point out that Julia Wayne is loosely(very loosley) based on me... Julia is my real name, but Wayne isn't my real last name... can you guess where i got the name Wayne from? i'm curious to know how many people can guess the right answer. here's a hint... i got the name from one of my favorite actors, a very well known actor known mainly for westerns/war movies... ok, that might be too big of a hint, but oh well. anywho, i hope you liked this chapter and PLEASE review! :D
