CHAPTER 2: He's A WIZARD?
The new house guest started to awaken the next morning. He got up with a REALLY big start. *A/N: Which is a MAJOR EFFING UNDERSTATEMENT*
"WHERE THE HELL AM I!" he shouted, eyes flaring red, feeling a surge of emotions, his head rushed with possibilities of what might have happened, and what old enemy might have had him here. He saw the two guys staring at him while he floated several feet above the couch without realizing he was doing so to begin with. "WHO THE HELL ARE YOU!" he screamed. "AND WHY THE FUCK ARE YOU STARING AT ME LIKE THAT!" Finn and Jake glanced at each other, neither knowing what to say.
Finn finally decided to speak. "You are at our home. I am Finn. This," Finn pointed to Jake, "this is Jake. We saved you from a fall that probably would have killed you." Finn said with a blank look. Then, his face darkened with anger and his voice deepened with rage, "And we are looking at you ONE, because you woke up and flippin' cussed at us like a sailor," Finn's mood mellowed as the boy had seemed guilty for his 'freak-out', "and TWO, you're floatin' about ten feet off the ground." the human added with a smirk, trying not to laugh like Jake, who was totes flippin' geekin' out when he realized that the teen didn't know he was flying.
The flying teen had that 'what the-' look on his face till glanced down and blushed, a faint "oh..." being the only thing that could escape his lips.
His hardly noticeable red aura started to fade as he slowly descended to the floor, standing an inch shorter than Finn, despite the deepness of his voice. But that wasn't the weirdest thing he did, no, the weird part was what he did next: he KNEELED before Finn with his head held low. "Allow me to apologize for my radical behavior, I mean, you DID save my life..."
Finn was totally shocked, and Jake looked like he saw a hybrid of a vampire-mermaid-narwall-rainicorn-zombie throw up an egg that hatched into a whale that shot a magical kitten out of its blowhole. Yeah, I know.
"My name is Zane," he said while getting up, "and I am in search for nothing in particular." he tried hard not to laugh after he said the last part, but to no avail. Finn and Jake just looked at eachother, wide-eyed and open-mouthed, thinking the same thing: What the FLIP is going on?
"You guys okay?" Zane asked, curious about why the two people he just introduced himself to looked at him as though he was completely crazy. The teen looked side to side, at the ceiling, the floor, turned around to see if something was behind him, and turned back around. After realizing they were still staring at him, his eyes half-closed in that way that let you know someone was really annoyed, and he started to frown. "What?" he asked, sounding pretty pissed.
Finn snapped out of it first, violently shaking his head as though he had zoned out. "Well, uh…" Finn couldn't say anything, still dazed by the way this person had acted. Suddenly, he remembered the questions he still needed to answer, who was this kid, where was he from, and why was he falling. "Um, I was kind of wondering, what happened to you? You were falling out of the sky, totally unconscious." Zane noticed the worry and confusion in the boy's voice. "Well... it's kinda like a... a REALLY long story…" Zane replied, rubbing the back of his neck, looking down, and then plopped down on the couch. Finn closed his eyes and nodded in understanding.
After a couple moments of silence, Jake remembered the other answer they wanted to know. Oblivious to the awkward situation, considering how he usually has a hard time picking up on cues, Jake abruptly walked up to Zane and, without noticing the teen's discomfort, asked the question. "What?" Zane said, pulling out of a deep thought.
"I said, What are you? I mean like… are you a vampire or somethin'?" Jake repeated. "WHAT? Nah, dawg! I'm no vamp, not like it would be a bad thing, I mean, some of my old friends are vampires…" Zane said, acting like the dog didn't cross some kind of mental boundary, like Finn thought he did.
"So, what are you?" Finn asked, curiously, silently hoping their new acquaintance would actually turn out to be another human.
Zane looked a little uncomfortable, twitching and moving his hands trying to think of how to tell his newest 'friends' who and WHAT he was. If they found out the truth, they would flip, and i would lose yet another chance at friends. He thought, worried. But if i lie, and they found out, I'm totally screwed, not like they'd find out. It was practically impossible to get between here and the Nightosphere, I know that first-hand. But what if I change when they're around. Not that it's likely to happen, considering the face that I'm not the same person anymore... and i could always explain... I'll tell them I know magic, which I do. I don't have to say why, and it won't be a lie...
He thought about it before coming upon a temporary scapegoat for his problem, and widely smiled: "I know magic expertly, wandering for literally no purpose other than it is the most fun thing like, ever." He said calmly, lying so well you couldn't tell he wasn't being truthful. "Do you have any family?" Jake asked, not quite expecting what happened next. Zane was a little surprised at the question, but answered truthfully:"Yeah, I had my dad. But one day, suddenly, he disappeared..."
"Wait," Finn said, eyeing Zane suspiciously, "If you're dad went missing, why aren't you looking for him?" Zane opened his eyes as a slight frown dawned upon his face,
"I can't."
A/N: Whoa, okay, he lies about the wizard shiz, but is the 16-year-old Zane putting truth into the stuff with his father? Is he really unable to search for his dad? Zane:Yeah...
Me: oh...ouch.
A/N(again): What has happened to Zane's dad that he can't seek him out? Why did this happen? And WHO"S RESPONSIBLE!
