Hey guys I am back and here is D's next little adventure, it's not much but I am doing a little building of his powers which is what we will see here. Now to answer the question that Matthew is asking, the Shadow Ghouls will be returning but not for a little bit, can you wait on it? Trust me this will be worth it. Now onto pairings D will be single for a while yet guys, but I promise you his love life will be decided more quickly then Magnus's I can promise you that. Though I will start to make an official pairing list for D and put some of the girls that you guys want on there. Now what do you think the next few chapters should be? Should D explore some of his new found powers? Should he finally start accepting who and what he is? Or should he still fight and struggle for a while longer? Let me know what you think. Anyway thank you all for your support and I will see in the next chapter.
So, it has been over a week since Gigi moved in with me and my dad and I must admit that things improved around the house, maybe because we had a woman's touch around the house. I now had someone that could help me with the house work, because let's face it my dad would make more of a mess if he tried to clean. Plus, I also had someone I can share my love of anime and manga with, besides Clawd I mean. Now there was a period of adjustment after all, Gigi and I had a few close-run ins when it came to the bathroom, however after working out a schedule we avoided that problem. My dad was extremely happy to have another person in the house and he took to Gigi right away, he said she was the daughter he always wanted to have. While living with me and my dad Gigi decided to change up her look, she now wore hair in a long pony tail, a black t-shirt with a golden scorpion on it, a blue and pink skirt with a golden belt, white leggings and gold scorpion heels.
"D! Gigi! Time to get up!" My dad called out.
Groaning I slowly stretched out and frowned, why did everything in my room look different…Oh god did Magnus and I switch bodies again? No wait I'm in my room buy why does the color around my room look muted? I tried to sit up but my entire body felt completely odd, my limbs felt oddly proportioned and I felt like I had an extra leg or something. Smacking my lips, I ran my tongue slowly across my lips and tasted something wet…Okay that is weird what is going on?
"D, your dad called. We should hurry." Gigi said knocking on my door.
"I'm trying but… Could come in here please? Something is wrong." I answered back.
The door slowly opened and Gigi popped her head into my door with one hand covering her face. "Are you decent?"
Rolling my eyes, I sighed. "Yes, but could you please- "I started to say but stopped the moment Gigi removed her hands from her face and she screamed. "Mr. Blood come help!"
"What? What's going on?" I asked looking at the genie feeling very confused, my dad's footsteps could be heard as he ran up the stairs and pushed past Gigi and stared inside my room. "What's wrong Gigi? Is everything- "He tried to say but upon seeing me he stopped, several emotions crossed over his face but I think the one that stuck was amusement. Snorting he started to laugh and soon he fell onto the ground clutching his stomach, Gigi looked at my dad with a very confused look on her face while I just got angry, growling I-Wait did I just growl?
"Okay will someone just tell me what is going on!?"
Slowly standing up my dad was still chuckling to himself. "Sorry kid, but just wait a moment. Gigi come with me I need a hand."
Walking out of my room both Gigi and my dad went somewhere else, leaving me alone and very confused and angry. After a few minutes, they came back holding a large standup mirror that my dad kept in his room, but for some reason the mirror was covered. Slowly the positioned it in front of my bed and my dad stepped in front of it and cleared his throat. "Now son before we show what is wrong… You must not panic… Whatever you do."
Sighing I rolled my eyes and shook my head. "Just show me please."
Gigi nodded and along with my dad they both removed the cloth covering the mirror. Looking into the mirror I didn't see anything expect a rather large semi-transparent dog staring back at me, the dog was big, in fact it took up most of the bed it's fur was midnight black and extremely long and shaggy, to be honest it looked like the hound Baskerville in the original Hellsing anime, minus all the eyes, as I stared at this dog I turned my head and noticed it did the same thing. …." I'm a dog!?"
It had taken me a lot longer than I thought to calm down but can anyone blame me? I turned into a freaking dog! Well suffice to say I won't be going to school today, my dad called headmistress Bloodgood to let her know what was going on, she agreed to come over to help explain everything that was going on, as we waited for her my dad and Gigi both helped me get off my bed and into the living room…. It was surprisingly easy to walk on four I found out, almost like I could always do it. Sitting on the living room rug while my dad and Gigi both tried to get my mind off of what was happening but nothing worked so I just laid around and huffed. So, Gigi sat beside me and began to scratch my ears.
"Gigi…Please stop just because I-Okay never mind keep scratching." I groaned leaning into her hand.
Giggling the former genie of the lantern complied with my request and kept on scratching my ears with her long nails which got in all the right place.
As this was going on my dad just watched with amusement and shook his head. "Always wanted a daughter and now I have one, now I get a dog? This is just the best week." He grinned hoping to get a reaction out of me.
Sadly, for him I was too distracted by Gigi's amazing fingers. Letting my tongue hang out the side of my mouth I rolled over and pressed my fuzzy side into her leg. Laughing Gigi gently rubbed my furry chest. "Oh, who is a good boy? You are!" She grinned.
I am a good boy, aren't I? I felt my tail slowly began wag at her words. Wait…No this isn't right, is it? I can't seem to make up my mind…One the hand…I want to turn back but on the other paw this felt really nice. Sadly, my musings were interrupted by the sound of the doorbell ringing. Rolling back over I perked my right ear up and listened, I could a heartbeat coming from outside.
"That must be Miss Bloodgood." Standing to his feet my dad walked to the front door and allowed the headless woman. "Thank you for coming Miss Bloodgood I didn't know who else to call."
"Of course, Jason, I completely understand. Now, where is he?"
"In the living room." My dad said coming back into view with my school's headmistress who looked down at me with a small smile.
"It is wonderful to see you D, despite the circumstances." She chuckled and shook her head.
Nodding I looked at her and raised an eyebrow ridge. "You as well… So, what is wrong with me?" I asked.
"Nothing is wrong with my dear boy, you are simply growing up." She smiled as my father handed her a cup of coffee. "Ah thank you Jason."
"You're welcome Bloodgood, now can you explain what you mean by that? Because he already went through puberty." My dad said taking a seat in the living room.
Chuckling Miss Bloodgood sat down in one of the chairs in the living room and slowly sipped at her coffee. "Yes, I was going to get to that. You see vampires go through something like this when they come into their full powers, and dhampirs go through the same thing. Though most vampires only turn into a bat, however since I am aware of your linage D things are a tad different for you."
"My linage? What does- Oh wait you're talking about the fact I'm half nosferatu vampire correct?" I asked.
"That is correct, while most vampires can only turn into a bat, nosferatu vampires can turn into bats, dogs, wolves, rats and mist or shadows if they so choose." Bloodgood explained. "So, this should last only for a few days, your best bet is to keep him home less something happens to him." Finishing her coffee Miss Bloodgood stood to her feet. "I need to go back to school but I will arrange for your homework to be sent to you."
"Thank you, Miss Bloodgood." I smiled or I think I tried to at least.
"Of course, and I shall do the same for you Miss Grant but just for today, you need to be in school tomorrow alright?"
Smiling Gigi nodded. "Thank you, Miss Bloodgood."
"Thank you again for coming again Bloodgood." My dad said as he walked the woman to the door.
"Of course, I am more than happy to help, and don't worry these things will only last a few days at the most. In a week, he should be back to normal." And like that my headmistress was gone, my dad came back into the living room to find me once more on my back as Gigi was scratching my belly. Snorting he laughed at the sight while I was simply lost in my bliss.
"Hello all thank you for coming by and bringing his homework but you don't need to come- "My dad started to say but stopped when he saw the looks the girls were giving him. "Oh, fine but he isn't going to be happy about this…D you have company."
Walking into the living room was Clawdeen, Frankie, Draculaura, Clawd, Lagoona and Howleen. The moment they caught a glimpse of what was going on all the girls let out a collective squeal. I was sitting on the couch with my head resting in Gigi's lap as she gently scratched my head. Lifting my head, I growled slightly. "Could you maybe not do that? My hearing is sensitive."
They all giggled well minus Clawd who was laughing because he recognized the kind of dog I was, glaring at him I slowly climbed off the couch and sat in front of the other girls and turned my head. "Did you bring me and Gigi our homework?"
"Of course, it's right here mate." Lagoona smiled pulling out some papers and setting them on a table. "Though I have to admit D when we heard you weren't feeling well, we didn't expect this." She giggled.
"Like totes this is amazing." The pink vampire grinned, getting down on one knee she held out her hand. "Can you give me your paw?"
Sighing I held out my right paw and placed it in her hand, not really wanting to but I felt like I had no choice. Giggling Draculaura reached out with her other hand and scratched me behind the ears.
"This is so cute, right?" Gigi smiled as she knelt down and scratched my back. "He has been acting like this ever since we found him this morning."
"This is volttastic maybe he could stay like this forever?" Frankie grinned jokingly as she knelt on my other side and scratched my ears.
"I don't know ghouls what if he grows several more eyes would you think he is cute then?" Clawd grinned crossing his arms over his chest.
Giving the male werewolf a glare which soon lost its power as Clawdeen, and Howleen got to me and were petting me as well. "Gah no…stop…I…Oh forget it." Sighing I just allowed them all to do whatever they wanted as I was powerless to stop them.
"Do you think we can keep him Clawdeen?" Howleen asked with a hopeful look.
"Now Howleen D is his own…per…Dog, but I think we can at least stay and pet him for a little while." Clawdeen grinned as she rubbed my belly.
Lagoona and Clawd were the only ones that seemed to not have lost their minds but I could tell even Lagoona was losing whatever self-control she had. Looking up at her I huffed out a sigh. "Just get over here." Grinning she walked over and started to pet me like the others. "You know I think the ghouls are right D, you are much cuter like this. Maybe you should consider making the change permeant."
"Yeah right…the tail I could live with, but the flees would be murder." I grumbled out. Laughing everyone simply shook their heads.
Well the next week was pretty much hell, each more morning was different, one day I woke up as a really big Foxbat or fruit bat, another time I was an all-black kangaroo rat one time I even woke up with half my body completely made out of a inky shadows….Yeah that was a weird day, mainly because my body could stretch or fall apart and yet it felt like it was nothing but the worst thing was when I turned in a small cloud of mist… it took me almost five hours to become normal again…I will never turn into mist again not unless I can help it.
Finally, after a week had passed everything was back to normal for me…well normal as they usually are but my body finally settled, and I felt…different, not a bad different but a good different. Which really made all the difference in the world to me. As Gigi and I walked to school one morning I told her I felt almost relieved to be coming back.
"I'm just glad all this vampire puberty stuff is over for you D." Gigi shook her head with a smile.
"Me too." I said. "And now things can go back to how they were."
"Mhm… Well with one small exception." She grinned walking a little faster than me.
"What's that?" I asked stopping to look at her.
Turning around she winked at me. "I may have taken pictures of your dog form and passed them around to the ghoul's in our class."
Eyes going wide I stared at the genie in horror. "Gigi…." Taking off like a shot the pink skinned girl ran off with me chasing after her while she laughed. Yeah things were definitely going back to normal now.
