Chapter 10: The Hunter
Kyle was sitting on the table still in his regular form. After he changed back to himself only half an hour ago, Tret and Vi had been taking blood samples from him the entire time. To everyone's amazement, Kyle's body would heal any injuries to his body and even replace lost blood the moment it left his body at an even faster rate than normal. That wasn't the only thing that surprised everyone about Kyle's new form though. His blood in his normal form was still the same color, but when he was in his newer form it was now a glowing pink color. When Kyle saw his new blood, he couldn't help but wonder just how in the world could his body even sustain this form. After an hour of tests both Vi and Tret brought everyone together to discuss just what they knew so far.
"Okay." Tret started. "Right now, we know a few things about Kyle's condition but mainly have nothing but theories at the moment. Vi."
"First off, and most obviously, Kyle has some kind of regenerative process within his normal cells. Now what this could possibly mean is that in his human form, Kyle would practically be completely immune to any and all forms of disease and viruses." Vi stopped and looked back at Tret.
"Secondly, It seems that from our tests involving his new look we found that those limbs are a kind of polymorphic substance capable of changing into a plethora of various objects according to how he encompasses the right hemisphere of his brain and projects it unto his four distinct anatomies." Tret said rather fast.
There was a collective question mark on top of everyone's heads as to what Tret just said to them. It almost sounded like he was speaking a second language at this point.
"Basically in laments terms, if you can think it in your head, then it happens on your arms and legs." Vi explained simply.
"I pretty much said that." Tret said in annoyance.
"Anyway." Vi continued while giving Tret a sideways scowl. "The theory there is that the white substance has some kind of neural link to you Kyle, same as the rest of your new form. The cells to that form react to both your mental, emotional, and physical states. So be careful when you're out in public and something happens to trigger those three parts of your brain Kyle."
"Got it." Kyle started as he stood up and stretched. "So, is there anything else I need to know before I head out?"
"Other than what you're going to tell others just what happened and how you got the hair." Zin started, getting Kyle's attention.
"I'll tell them that when I lost that guy, I found myself in a small town and saw a hair dye place." Kyle started. "That should get my friends and my mom to not question me all that much."
"Good." Zin said with a smile. He stood up and went to Kyle and placed a hand on his shoulder. "You take care of yourself Kyle. Just remember to stay on your toes about this whole 'new form' thing."
Kyle nodded to him and started to leave the Tower. Once he was outside of it, he looked around and made his way back home though the woods. As he was walking, he started to feel some kind of gnawing feeling in the back of his brain. He didn't know what it was but before he reached his street, he decided to take a detour. He made his way into the city and walked along the night lights of the streets. After an hour of walking, Kyle no longer felt the gnawing sensation in his head anymore. With that, he made his way through the park to get back on his street. The park would always be a sure fire short cut back home other than the woods.
Kyle walked along until he once again felt that gnawing in his head again. Only this time, it was far more noticeable and started to blur his vision. For a split second, his eyes were back to that vibrant pink color they were before, and for that split second, he saw a man about to pull a gun out on him through several bushes. Kyle looked to him and could see a semi perfect outline of the man. He was in a dark trench coat and had on a black hat and mask to cover his face. The moment Kyle saw the gun, he ran as fast as he could away from the man. When he started running, the white substance appeared for a moment and sped him off back to his neighborhood. He stopped right behind June's house and caught his breath. That didn't take but only a few seconds with the way his new body was now. He looked through a window that showed the kitchen and luckily for him, C.J. was there at the fridge. Kyle tapped the window and got her attention.
"Kyle?" She said surprised. The first thing she noticed was his new hair. She quickly went to the window and opened it for Kyle to climb inside of. "What exactly happened to you after MC Crazy Pants attacked the school?"
"I gave him the slip when I ran into a small town and hid in a hair dye shop." Kyle lied as he got situated inside. He motioned to his new hair when he got inside. "Also got my hair dyed while I was there. Cool right?"
C.J. looked at the strange hair color and nodded. "It does look, how should I put it. Oh yeah, FREAKIN AWESOME!" She started to mess with the colors of his hair for a bit before June and Xander walked in.
"Dude." June started as she went over to him. "Just what in the hell happened to you earlier?"
"Yeah man, that guy was really after you for some reason." Xander said to him as he also started messing with Kyle's hair.
"I have no idea why he did." Kyle started as he started batting their hands away. "But at least I got some pretty cool hair out of it all."
The four started to laugh a little before heading back into the June's room to relax and chill. As they were doing that, Kyle continued to explain the hair to C.J. whenever she would ask him just to annoy him and tussle his hair. Unbeknownst to the four though, someone had followed Kyle here and was watching them all through a window. The figure was a woman with white hair and piercing blue eyes to her. She was perched on top of another house not to far away from June's house and watched Kyle like a hawk. Something wasn't right. When she followed the black ooze trail to the beach, she found that it just stopped with no other explanation to it. Almost as if something just took whatever the source of it away. It wasn't until she saw Kyle walking away to the forest that she decided to follow him. She had lost him when he cut through the streets and the park, but quickly caught up not long after.
"What exactly are you, I wonder." She said to herself as she watched the boy intently. "I guess I have a new target now."
