Full Moon High: The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Miss Hyde
Chapter 12: A Good Hero on Both Sides; Good on the Hyde Legacy pt.5
Dusk had begun to settle. The inky blackness of the nights sky fought against the deep crimson of the evening sun. The skies of Everett were caught in an eternal battle between the forces of light and dark: and darkness was winning. Slowly one by one, across the city, lights were turned on and people vacated the streets. As night began to set in and the nights sky slowly began to appear above them no one wanted to be out to night, not since the recent string of monster attacks.
However darting across the rooftops a clusters of figures could be seen, some human, some not quite so much.
Alpha, darted between a hardware store and a coffee shop, his lupine legs springing him forward in a great arc as he crossed the street in a single bound. Behind him came the pale form of Jackie Hyde, her long powerful legs brining her up to a speed which would outpace the greatest runners in the world, only it currently looked like she was only committing to a jog. As she used her acceleration to propel her after the werewolf, her hair flapped behind her as she accelerated over the street, and landed easily on the other side. Her yellow eyes sparkled at the feat she had performed, it had not been the first time that day, and would not be her last.
"Dammit, why didn't I keep a better eye on him," Jackie berated herself, remembering full well why she was venting. It was because Jeremy had gone to Roland's hideout after he had discovered it, and because of it, he was caught.
Sensing her self-loathing and shame, Alpha assured her, "You're not the first to berate themselves after they get a friend in danger."
"You mean your packmates, Scope and Scar, right," Jackie asked to make sure she knew she was guessing right.
He nodded, "I'm supposed to be the leader of this pack, and I know that they're in danger. But if I keep asking myself, 'What did I do wrong, what could I have done different to prevent this', then nothing will change. So, don't fret on and just focus on what to do next."
Jackie smirked, as she stopped on the ledge of the roof, while Alpha stopped as well, perching on the ledge as well on all fours in a sitting position. She leaned on her right leg, as she sighed, allowing what Alpha had said to sink in, "I guess you're right on that."
'You know he's a pretty wise leader,' Jaqueline's mind spoke up as she thought to herself, 'I wonder… if I was a leader could I be something similar to him.'
He blinked, as he looked around, "Speaking of friends, where's your friend, Comette?"
Jackie arched an eyebrow, as she asked, "I could ask the same about your comrades."
There was a sudden yelling of excitement that pierced the night. Looking back over their shoulders, they could not at first see the source of the noise, but as it went on it seemed to get closer.
Then all at once the ground behind them erupted into smoke and rubble, the cloud of debris clogging their view, as they both dropped into a defensive stance. Yet from within the cloud of derbies they could hear laughing, ad a familiar prim and proper voice yelling at someone.
"Are you insane?!"
It was Queen.
As if in response to this cry of frustration they heard laughing, and as the dust settled they got the image of what had transpired. Comette, who was now standing in a shallow crater on the rooftop, created from a colossal impact which was her falling from the sky stood up to her full height and was laughing. Queen was wrapped under one arm and under the other a purple and white werewolf that had appeared shortly before they had left. Climbing down from the laughing Comette's back was Huntress, and as Jackie pieced together what had happened her orange and blonde friend spoke.
"What I told you we would catch up."
Her grin spread from ear to ear, as she beamed down at the blonde werewolf, who was even now trying to wrestle her way free of the Hydes powerful arms.
"You just jumped across half a city!" Queen declared angrily. "There is no way that is safe."
"Fun though" Comette declared. "Also… hi, Jackie."
Beaming as Jackie Comette grin seemed to only broaden, she was loving every second of this. Yet from under her arm, the eyes of the purple and white werewolf seemed to swirl, and even Huntress seemed to stumble, a little disorientated by the 'crash.'
Queen just slapped her forehead, as she groaned at the Hyde's mindset, "I give up."
Gothica looked over to Comette, as she groaned, "I think I made a mess on your backside." And almost vaulted over from the experience, passing out at that second.
Comette however just laughed, hands held proudly on her hips and her head thrown bac as she roared up towards the sky. Jackie had to hold back a smirk as she watched her friend, before turning her head back and towards the nearby industrial wasteland beyond.
Wide and open, this region of the city was were most of the old factories from decades prior had once stood. Most however now stood dilapidated and abandoned, vast distances of open ground, dissuaded metal containers, construction material and low shrubland ran the areas between the vast husks that were amongst western America's industrial might. A lip twitched up on her lip: she could see the factory they needed to get to, and she could feel her blood begin to boil.
'This will be fun' the Hyde's thoughts flashed, her eyebrows raising in a almost seductive manner towards the building.
'Eyes on Jeremy, Jackie,' Jaqueline could be heard inside the Hyde's head ordering.
'Yeah I know... but who says we can't have fun while doing so?'
"So what is the plan." Alpha's question cut Jackie's internal monologue off, and the pale, raven haired Hyde turned towards her.
Jackie smirked, as she flexed her arms, "Easy, we go in, go all hero, meaning we beat the living daylights out of anyone that's a bad guy, rescue Jeremy and Theodore, and tie up the bums for the police to cart them off to jail."
Everyone stared off at her like she had grown a second head. The silence was uneasy until Maria asked, "A full scale frontal assault." Jackie nodded. "Guns blazing and bashing everyone around. That's your plan?"
Still maintaining her smile, Jackie shrugged, "That's pretty much it."
Silence still played out, even with Jaqueline groaning innerly, 'That's not a plan, Jackie.'
"Well, I like it," Alpha spoke up, as they all looked at him dumbfoundedly, but that stopped as he asked, "So how do we give them the element of surprise while they're still about outside?"
Jackie looked over her shoulder to Comette, and then down at the crater she had formed: a smirk twisting its way across her lips.
"Air drop?"
"Airdrop," Comette smirked.
"Alright then, while you two air drop..." Alpha shrugged, and then gestured to himself ant the rest of his pack, "The rest of us will go in fast."
"Yeah yeah," Jackie started, as she bent her legs, her powerful muscles flexing as she mentally counted down.
"Once inside..."
Moments Later
Alpha didn't get a chance to face mosh. He was cut short by a second cloud of dust, as Jackie kicked off, flying into the air, and pulverizing the ground beneath her feet.
Alpha coughed out a lung, as he groaned, "I'm guessing she never waits..."
Meanwhile
Holding Rooms
The vision of Jeremy blurred in and out and he sat on the bridge of unconsciousness. He tried to move his hands, but they were tapped to his side, he tried to focus his vision but his head swan in confusion. His body pulsed as it seemed to ache from head to toe.
Even his voice radiated with exhaustion and aching. It was clear as evident that he was sedated, as he groaned, "Mafffstava, wha... wha... Where am I?" He looked around, as he tried to get his bearing, and saw he was in some kind of room built into a vault of some kind. He was tied to a chair to say the least, as he tried to look around, wondering where Ted was, "Ted? Teddy? Theodore? Where are you?"
"Right behind ya," Theo's voice called out, as Jeremy tried to look behind him. Though in glance, he was able to see that Theodore was in the same boat: tied to a chair and back to back with him. "Do you remember what happened?"
"A hot guy and gal knocked us out," Jeremy replied. "That's all I got swirling in my head."
"Oh god..." Theo drones out, twisting his head from side to side, his face filled with utter pain. His exasperation reached boiling point as his eyes went wide and then darted to try and get a look at Jeremy, his hand shaking against his binds as he tried to shift himself enough to see his friend. "Hey Jeremy? You said we were beaten up by a hot guy and girl right?" His expression now wide eyed and unsure.
Jeremy loosened his neck. Half his body feeling as though it were lead. "Yeah... they knocked us out... Why?" He groaned as he rolled his shoulders in a vain attempt to stretch.
Theo let out a long drawn-out breath. "Oh thank god..." Jeremy's ears picked up as he overheard his friend relax, at now of all times. "I mean at first I thought we were captured," Theo laughed, "but knowing that happened tells me this has to be all a dream." His voice grew more frantic, as did his laugh. "I mean girls and guys with fluorescent skin and superpowers aren't real!" He began to try and jump in his chair desperately trying to escape. "This is all some fantasy turned nightmare, this some mental representation of my desires holding me back; and I am gonna wake up any second... any second."
On some level Jeremy felt a calm over him as his friend proceeded into a meltdown. It gave him a weird strength knowing his best pal was snapping. Because it meant he had to calm him down.
"Theo..." Jeremy began.
"Well we really screwed up Jeremy my fantasy of buff woman coming to save us turning into one where they kill us. I would say sorry but you're not real. Not real! None of this is real!"
Jeremy let out a long sigh. "Theo, this is real.
And slowly the frantic laughing of Theo slowed and gradually transitioned into him crying.
Unamused by his friend's outburst, Jeremy dronely asked, while looking annoyed, "Are you finished?"
Theo sniffled, as he nodded, "Yeah." He sniffled again, as he asked, "So what do you think they're gonna do with us?"
Jeremy sighed, as he thought of the possibilities, "Well, they're either gonna interrogate us, kill us knowing Roland would do such a thing as he threatens to bury guys and girls like us… or they'll give us swirlies until we talk or smell like the toilets."
"You know Roland killing are just stories, right?" Theo tried to say with a laugh.
"Oh, are they? Are they really?"
Walking in from an open metallic wall came Elaine. Wearing her brown hair up in a bun she strode in with her head tilted back and the most arrogant sneer on her face. She walked past the boys and to a sideboard filled with vials and chemicals, as she began to rant at them.
"You boys have been naughty," she cried, her voice filled with a haughty arrogance a hunter would use to talk to its prey. "Very naughty."
Jeremy's jaw hung open, as he blinked, "Uh... yeah. And you are...?"
"What? Who is it," Theo replied, his back to Jeremy while Elaine was in front of the latter, "Jeremy, I can't see who it is."
In walked Elaine smiling from ear-to-ear.
"My name is Elaine Melbourne," Elaine introduced herself. "I guess you might say I'm the primary scientific mind of Roland's little group."
"You know you really shouldn't give your name," a voice cried over a unseen loudspeaker. "Anonymity is a powerful weapon."
Jeremy then looked up, trying to spot any source of the noise, when he couldn't he cried out. "I presume you're a friend of Roland's too?"
The voice laughed, the static from the loudspeaker garbling his words. "Call me Castle, I am Roland's representative in this enterprise, and Elaine's sponsor."
A remake which Elaine snorted at.
"Castle I could have done this without you all the same." She goaded with a sly smile, looking towards a glass mirror which Jeremy stared at imagining the man or the people behind it.
"Yes you could have my dear. But then you would never be able to make as much money as we can."
To Jeremy's shock Elaine actually chuckled, a short sharp and menacing chuckle to be sure, but one with a note of endearment.
All at once Jeremy felt his guts twist, and behind him Theo answered his sentiment for him. "Oh great... gangsters in love."
Elaine shrugged, "What can I say, you find love anywhere. Even in this line of business."
Jeremy put his tough front back in, as he asked, with a hardened snarl at the girl, "What are you gonna plan to do with us?"
"Probably torture us with dogs, or bees," Theo replied, as he freaked out, "Or are you gonna sick dogs with bees at us, and when they bark, they'll shoot bees at us?!" He shook his head, as he shouted, "Well, go ahead! Do your worst! But I know we'll be saved!"
Gus's disbelieving comment rang out over the loudspeaker. "Is he freaking serious?" It wasn't a loud shout or yell of defiance more of a flat monotone note of surprise.
Elaine herself cocked an eyebrow as she just stood their holding up the syringe. Briefly looking between Jeremy and Theo, the latter of whom seemed to have his eyes closed and repeating the same line over and over. Slowly Elaine turned back towards the two way mirror and smiled, knowing that Gus had his camera ready on the far side.
There was a faint tap echoing from Gus wrapping his knuckles against the glass, but for Elaine she wasn't ready quite yet. No, she wasn't. Slowly she made her way in front of the mirror, putting a hand on her hip and holding it up to the Camera. 'If Roland wants proof of concept, he will get proof of concept.'
"Test 1 of PUMP formula type 7." She would turn away and motion to the bound pair smiling evilly from ear to ear. "Please note the skinny and thin disposition of these two test subjects we will..."
"Oh god its worse!" Teo cried in fear. "She is monologuing."
Elaine then perked up and glared at Theo. "No, I am not!"
"Yeah you totally are."
Jeremy was unrepentant in his statement as he said this, looking her dead in the eye.
"I am trying to sell the formula you know. Have you never heard of showmanship!"
"Yeah, but you're testing out a new drug which turns people into 9ft tall monsters. So... yeah. Evil scientist gloating over their captives? Its -"
In unison he and Theo then stated "Monologuing."
There was a crackle of the radio and Gus could be heard crying out. "Oi! Leave her alone you two. We have a schedule to keep."
"Hey at least we have the guts to show our faces." Theo cried back at the screen, something within the scared boys mind snapping. "I mean come out of there and show your ugly mug! Or are you two scared."
"Listen you shrimp of a twerp. We are just trying to get by when you break into our base and trying to expose our operation or something. I don't need lip from you or your dumb friend. So, face the flippin' consequences!"
"Consequences, you're not the law. You're a bunch of teens that Roland scared into following him. Your nobodies following a psychopath."
At this Elaine slapped Theo across the face, turning his cheek scarlet. Roland winced as he heard the slap, leaning in and whispering in quiet solidarity. "I think you struck a nerve with that one."
After a short while the voice of Gus could be heard groaning from the other side of the intercom. "Elaine... maybe we should do something special for these two. They kind of deserve it."
Elaine sly smile grew wider. "Ideas?"
"Have you tested what happens when people overdose on pump yet?"
Both Theo and Jeremy went wide eyed as a sly smile crosses the lips of Elaine, the words forming slowly on her lips, as she strutted back to her table of chemicals. "I will get some spare doses."
"Oh bite me!" Theo cried in frantic desperation. "We're either dead or going to become mindless freaks! If I wanted to be a Hyde I would have wanted to be like Comette or Jackie!"
"Wait! Jackie and who!"
"Jackie Hyde and Comette," Theo answered. "Comette's the hot orange one that saved my life. And they're both coming here to smash you all!"
A stony silence darkened the room, as Elaine's brow fell. She turned to look back at the mirror as Gus's voice just said what they both were thinking.
"Shit! There is two of them now?"
"He must be lying," Elaine swore. "I know that she would never..."
"I don't give a shit what Jackie will do! Why didn't brute tell us this!"
"Well I guess... his mental faculties were left a bit to be desired."
Gus could be heard swearing over and over now over the coms, as something crashed loudly and slurred the loud speakers. Jeremy and Theo shared an awkward glance to as far as they could see each other as Elaine sighed and pushed her glasses up her nose. Jeremy could hear her mutter to herself.
"Note to self, increase brutes mental capacity..."
By then however Gus had returned to the loud speaker and barked out an order. "Alright! get those to OD's record the process and have your hidden Hydes beat them and whatever left! If we have two Hydes moving in we seriously need to..."
There was another pause as another voice could be half heard over the coms, yelling frantically, but the words being too far from the mic became murmurs to the group in the laboratory. It was Gus's roar which shook them to realize what was happening.
"WEREWOLVES!"
Jeremy turned to look at Elaine who was now walking towards the mirror, concern on her face, her hand resting on the glass. "Gus are you..."
"Elaine we are moving shop. Forget these two now, we need to get you to the shuttle bay. We are clearing house."
"But my experiments! The captives!" Elaine now yelled.
"Fuck your experiments, fuck the captives we can get new ones. We can't replace..."
There was a sudden noise like an artillery strike and the whole building shook, Elaine being thrown to the floor, and Gus and Theo being shaken to their core.
Hus's voice could be heard yelling now over the coms. "I'll buy you time Elaine... love you."
And then with a flurry of static, the line went dead.
For a moment Jeremy and Theo felt they were in the clear, Gus was gone, and they now had a window in whatever chaos there was to escape.
"Quick see if you can untie me." Jeremy cried, as Theo began to try and get a grip of his friend's restraints.
However as Jeremy now turned, he jumped. Elaine was right in front of him, looming over him syringe in hand and a fire in her eyes.
"You..." The word contained pure fire as her hands shook, and eyes tore into Jeremy. "You bought them here... you..."
Jeremy thought about it, as he rolled his eyes around, and looked to her, "Um... by accident?"
As the sounds of people shouting and gunshots being exchanged in the distance, Jeremy saw the diminutive Elaine actually smile at him. It was a soft smile, but it had this creepy edge as she leaned in close to him.
And then he felt it.
The five syringes, each of them containing a dose of this 'PUMP' chemical. He watched as Elaine pulled them free and scattered the empty cylinders over the floor. He managed a 'no!' as she descended on Theo and sunk four more into his neck, causing his friend to cry out in pain.
"For what it's worth," Elaine commented darkly. "If you don't OD you guys are going to have one hell of a phycological issue."
She then walked out towards the door, as it slowly closed up, with Jeremy shouting, "Well, what the heck does that mean?!"
Meanwhile
Waiting Room 3
AKA Lab Specimen Room 3
At the moment, within the busted up waiting room with crunched beds, Courtney, Lana, and Justine were currently trying to adjust their jumpsuits, while Dale and Dirk were only wearing their bottom half of their suits, as they didn't bother to cover their chests.
Lana was dressed in one piece which hardly covered anything, in fact the grey skinned hyde could not even do the suit all the way up, causing her to have a huge V neck running down to her naval. Adding in a pair of back thigh high toeless leggings and arm sleeves she had the part down as she tied a large white shawl around her waist.
Justine meanwhile had been given a metallic gray spandex suit without sleeves or a back, and with a large section of the chest area cut away in a pentagon shape revealing nearly all of her now bountiful P-cup chest, all held together by dark blue straps.
Courtney's outfit had been a dark sea green sleeved jumpsuit, but even now holes were being burnt through the suit, as her body dripped its acidic contents over the floor.
Courtney sighed, as she looked at her suit, "This stinks. I can control the changes, but this outfit's not holding up with my other half's toxicity."
"Maybe you are going to have just spend your life naked," the 9 feet tall Justine said slyly.
"Maybe you are going to have just spend your life naked," the 9 feet tall Justine said slyly.
Courtney shrugged, "Meh, I don't really mind the whole nudity anymore."
"I know I don't," Dirk smirked, while Dale shook his head in disgust.
"It's the fact I'm worried I might not eat anymore," Courtney pointed out. "I mean seriously. Anything I touch or eat might turn to toxic waste. And I doubt Twinkies are the exception."
"Twinkies were already toxic waste," grumbled Justine.
"I just hope Elaine's got a better outfit for me to wear than this," Courtney sighed.
"But I thought you didn't mind being naked." Lana asked leaping onto Cortney and matching her tits together.
Courtney grumbled, but asked, "You've been awfully frisky, Lana. What's up?"
"Oh, that's just my Hyde telling me to screw your brains out. Trust me Biostorm really is liking you Cortney!"
"Biostorm," Courtney asked in between pants.
"It's what my Hyde calls herself," Lana replied, as her hands slipped behind Courtney's rear, going passed the fabric, as she massaged Courtney's butt, "And believe me, I actually like it."
"You look more like a Pyra," Courtney moaned, as Lana continued to squeeze and massage the girl's butt. "At least that's what my persona, Hazmat's telling me."
It was at this point Dirk hit his mate Dale and grinned as he watched the two girls panted. "Dude I am loving this drug so far," he is whispered flexing his newly muscled arms. I mean I was 16 inches but now I am freaking 23!"
Dale just groaned, "Please don't talk right now, I've got a spitting headache."
Courtney took notice of that, even with Lana still squeezing and groping her buttocks, "You okay, Mas? You seem like you've got a hangover."
"I think it's mostly due to transforming so much," Dale sighed, as he crashed back first onto his bed, as he looked up at the ceiling. "Don't get me wrong. Being Brute's something but having being that dumb for so long kinda drains you mentally and gives you one heck of a headache."
Courtney blushed, as she commented, "I don't think me, Lana, or Justine complained afterwards when you got back." She then yelped a little, as she blushed at the top of Lana's head, as she smothered herself between her boobs, "Hey, no biting, you maniac!"
BWWWAAAAAMMMMMMMMM!
A noise like a bomb shell echoed in the distance and the whole building began to shake, plaster fell from the cracked ceiling, crates were knocked off their shelves and enough dust was kicked up to drown the entire room in a fog like haze.
Justine looked up in surprise, as she asked, while everyone was frozen from what had just transpired. "Vat vas dat?"
Elsewhere in the Warehouse
Jackie rose to her feet, letting the rubble and debrie roll off her. Standing to her full height, the Snow White, raven haired Hyde slid her hands along her long toned hips, letting them to come to rest on her waist, before she opened hey glowing yellow eyes and surveyed the world before her.
She was standing a top a pile of rubble, a hole in the ceiling rested not far above her, and looking up she could see she had crashed through three floors. Smiling as she counted each hole she had formed her eyes slowly closed and shifted as she heard a familiar click.
She could tell she was in some supply room, she could tell it was mostly empty. Rows of corogated metallic shelfs sat rusting all around her. And yet her eyes rested on the lone thug in that room, quaking from the knees up as she trained her AK47 onto Jackie.
With a soft thud Jackie leapt down from her pile of detritus and came to rest an inch from this lone gunman. She cocked an eyebrow as she watched her begin to sweat, her finger flexing on the trigger, her palms growing clammy as this amazon towered over her. Jackie could smell her fear and it was driving her crazy, just by standing here she had power over this one terrified woman.
Jackie, closed her eyes and felt a rush of confidence as she opened her mouth to speak...
Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Click...
Jackie opened her eyes, her ears greeted by a tinkling of metal hitting the floor and a dull pain in her chest. Looking down she watched as a mass of flattened bullets fell away from her black outfit, her s chest bouncing still from the impact. Her ears were then greeted but a further round of clicks, and she looked back up at the thugs smoking barrel as she desperately pressed the trigger over again in desperation that another bulletwood would magically appear.
Jackie now gave a more toothy grin as she reached out to the petrified woman. With a gesture of her wrist she grabbed the barrel and with a deep creek bent the metal upwards towards the ceiling.
Jackie looked at the terrified female thug, as she arched an eyebrow, "Like shooting at people, eh?"
Jaqueline sighed innerly, as she replied, 'Whew. It's a good thing we have bullet immunity.'
Jackie would ignore Jaqueline, and keep one firm hand on the barrel of the gun while bribing her hand back. With a simple firm strike the female thug would go flying, the damaged gun still being held in Jackie's pale hands. She watched with satisfaction as the thug crashed into one of the metal shelfs, its rusting frame crumpling under the impact.
"If this is all they're throwing at us, this rescue is a cinch," Jackie smirked confidently, becoming complacent in the process.
She could hear yells and shout from the other side of the door, and footsteps pounding towards her. But she wasn't going to wait. Crashing through the door, and taking a good chunk of the wall with her Jackie burst though the door and into a wall of goons heading their way. She could tell they were frozen dead by her entrance, but Jackie did not slow down.
With a single wave of her hand she sent the lead three thugs flying, letting the next two get knocked down by slamming into her rock hard abs, and then grabbing another goon with her left arm and lifting him up in the air and slamming him into the ground.
She felt the adrenaline and Hyde formula mix like potent cocktail and felt a rush from her brain to her toes, she rode the pleasure by brining her leg around into a roundhouse kick and punting the last of this squad down the hall and through a door at the far end.
Jackie then stopped, standing amid the carnage of broken and unconscious body and looked down at her palm. Closing it she slammed the fist into the wall letting it shatter and leave a open gap into a production floor to her left.
'Good a route as any' she fought as she leapt through without a backwards glance.
'Just be careful, okay,' Jaqueline pointed out.
"Yeah yeah, but still we've gotta keep these crapheads occupied long enough for Comette and the pack to find their friends..." She then smirked, "And our boyfriend, Jeremy."
'HE'S NOT MY... I MEAN OUR BOYFRIEND,' Jaqueline screamed out in embarrassment.
Standing up in the middle of a large open room, Jackie had to guess this had once been a production center or warehouse. She could see the various conveyer belts lined up at one far end of the room, clearing way for a set of five large and oversized tanks. Yet it was the guards which caught her eye, around twenty or so running at her, all armed with a wide assortment of weapons, getting in range to open fire.
Raising her fist into her open hand Jackie clicked her knuckles and grinned, her eyes drifting from the guards to the large tanks.
"Distraction found" she claimed with a wide grin
Meanwhile
In Python's makeshift Lab
"No! No! Thisssss is unacceptable!"
Professor python was leaping frantically around his lab, using the various pipes and wires to manipulate and pull his way through his makeshift laboratory. The huge mass of scales hissed angrily as he leapt towards two bulbous growths and stared at them, his reptilian eyes narrowing.
The growths rose and fell, as if they were breathing, slowly shifting, with veiniy green flesh, as something, someone slithered within them.
"Doc, calm down," a young female voice spoke out, as her onyx black scale hand lightly touched his shoulder, as Mamba assured her mentor, "We can essscape with ease as sson asss Anna and Sssidewinder wake up."
Python however slapped the mutated hand away and hissed loudly at his new 'creation.' "Thissss is my descissssion. And I knowssss what will happen. We sssstay, the wolvesssss will arrive and I will be caught... no... notssss again!"
He then barged past Mamba and towards his desk grabbing nots and shoving them into a bag, and again then going to his computer and typing away furiously to upload as much data as he could to a transportable hard drive. His eyes narrow as the loading timer counter down and saw the words 'ten minutes' flash back at him.' With a roar of impatience he reached down and hauled the physical hard drive off the ground and over his shoulder, eyes darting again from his desk and back to the two fleshy pods nearby.
His creations, his saviors, his children. The scientific monster eyes lingered on the two pods containing the people who had helped him, save him from that cryogenic hell.
"I willssss not be caged again!"
And he turned away walking to the door.
Suddenly, the two skin cocoons started to stir and wobble. This meant that they were getting ready to be reborn, just as he was.
Meanwhile
Not Far
With an explosion of debris and a shattering of rubble the concrete roof came apart, an orange and yellow goddess blasting through with a werewolf on each arm. Comette slammed into the ground causing a micro crater to form around her, leaping up she thrust an arm forwards and pointed defiantly at the room.
"She never retreats! Never surrenders! She is the mighty heroine who will remove all that is wrong in this world! She is-"
"Umm Comette?"
Comette looked down at her outstretched arm and saw the purple and white Gothica dangling from it, smiling sheepishly.
"Mind if you put me and Queen down first before you do your heroic speech?"
"To who," muttered Queen. "The room is empty."
Indeed all around them stood a wide empty hallway, lights flickering nearby, as Comette had torn through a powerline.
Comette allowed the two wolves to fall down like sacks of potatoes, as the two thudded with painful grunts. While Kylie was getting back on her feet, and Queen still sitting down with her butt soaring along with her tail, the blonde-haired orange skinned Hyde scratched her head in confusion, "Where the heck are the bad guys? Did they run off already?"
"Maybe we just broke into the wrong part of the complex?"
"Or wrong building," added Queen.
"No..., no I am certain this is the one." Comette replied to both Queen and Gothica as she tapped her newly enlarged lips and looked up and down the hall. "There has to be something somewhere."
Walking ahead of the two wolves, rolling her hips and reveling in the power of walking at the head of a super powered trio, the Hyde noticed a sign on a nearby door. 'Beware - Python.'
Both werewolf girls paled at that, as Gothica gulped, "Oh boy…"
"If he's here, then we're definitely in the right place," Queen replied.
Comette arched an eyebrow, as she turned to face the two wolf girls, "Who's Python? Is he a baddie?"
"Well then I better go punch him in the dick!"
And Comette then proudly marched towards the door, the two werewolves sharing a terrified look.
"Wait, Comette, don't!" Queen cried out.
"Don't be a rash fool," Gothica cried out to her as well.
But it was too late, as the Hyde opened the door.
Both just slumped and groaned, "She opened it."
AS Comette adjusted her eyes to the darkness, she saw what could only be described as every lab in horror films she ever saw mushed into one
Claws.
Long, razor sharp claws. Each as long as knives and each glinting in the dark as they rushed, straight for her.
However, before she could react, a purple and yellow set of blurs rushed and knocked the owners of the claws to the other side of the room. Gothica and Queen had managed to back up Comette in time, even as the Hyde groaned, "Hey, I could have handled it."
Gothica stood up, as she smirked, "Yeah, but you're still a rookie to this whole vigilante/superhero thing."
"Hey what's the worst... worst..."
Comette words fell short as she saw what stood before them.
Rising out of the shadows, standing on hind legs with long reptilian tails were the latest of Python's creations.
the first was what appeared to be a female body of 19 years of age, slender with C cup chest, slim waist, dazzling long legs. Though she had the same body structure as the Professor's lizard body. with black scales all over her body, with a bluish gray underbelly. she had scaly eyebrows atop yellow eyes, and bluish gray scale hairlike structures that cropped over her right eye. She was wearing a black and white turtleneck one piece suit with the zipper going down under her cleavage, with black straps on her biceps and thighs.
The second one was much like her, except she had white scales with red eyes, a D cup chest, and wore a red and white turtleneck one piece suit with the zipper going down under her cleavage, with white straps on her biceps and thighs, but with gloves on her hands. She had a purple underbelly with purple scale hairlike structures cropping both sides of her head.
"Ah crap..."

The Wolf 'Holding Cell'
The freezer was even colder this night, colder then any night before. Maybe it was just the time he had been here, maybe it was staying in Lycan form for so long, maybe it was the fact his nose had developed icicles: but Scope did not no. He could hear the shallow breathing of Scar nearby, refusing to voice his own pain or fatigue, but it being clear nonetheless.
"Hey... Scar...?"
The Black and werewolf, who was slumped against the fridgied walls, looked up, the ice cracking off as his now dull yellow eyes struggle to open he was so tired.
"Y-yeah..." His angry growl like voice, did not seem so angry or aggravated as he now spoke, not looking at Scope, but instead across the room, as he tried to move his chained arms and feet.
"I'm sorry..." Scope muttered as he felt his eyelids droop. "If I was stronger... more serious... we may not have."
"Shut it Cor... Scope." Scar rumbled, as his momentary lapse in attitude faded away and his gruff voice returned. "I ain't... g... g... god dam it." Scar fell backwards the ice shards underneath him cracking away as he did.
"W...w...w...where's... t-t-that attitude g-g-gone." chided the punk like girl who had been imprisoned with them from across the hall, sniggering to her grungy partner who had huddled up into a ball: nursing the bite mark Scar had given him. "Y-y-you, finally g-g-g-get why y-y-you don't mess w-w-with Roland..."
'Trash' and Samuel Trenton were two of Roland's goons Scar had managed to bite in frustration after he had come round from the elephant tranquilizers he had been given. He glowered across at the cocky girl, who's only protection from the cold was the puffer jackets she and Samual had been given. She leered at both of them for her predicament, Castle tying her and Trash up out of 'security concerns' or more likely more hair farms for the Pump. Still she couldn't help but feel anger for the two werewolves opposite her, and so did Samuel, who had retreated into himself.
Trash arched her back, as her legs strengthened, tearing at her black pants. Her boots unable to keep up with her growing feet. Her legs becoming digi-hind and canine.
"At least our friends don't… don't decide to use us like cattle," Scope pointed out, reminding the punk redheaded chick that loyalty with her former friends had gone south.
"S-s-shut u-u-up... d-d-d-dog m-m-man..." She growled twisting her neck in clear pain. "I-I-is... it me or I-I-is it getting.. hot!"
Scope eyes widened as he felt it too, he felt his muscles strengthen, his limbs fill back with energy, his tail slowly begin to wag. His eyes turned up to the sky, and while he could not see it he grinned.
"The full moon."
A sound like clattering of metal suddenly could be heard above them and a metal grate peeled away from the roof. A blurred shadow could be seen falling, hitting the ice ground and looking up to stare at Scope and Scar.
Trash yelled out in shock, but Mikey grinned as the brown werewolf rose to her feet.
"Hey Huntress... W-w-what took you so long."
"We were a bit short-handed and didn't know where to look," Maria replied, and walked over to them both, as she easily shot the chains to set them free, "But we had help in finding you guys."
"Awesome." Scope said as he rose to his feet for the first time in days. "What's the plan?"
Maria was about to open her mouths as there were two screams behind them. The two bound criminals hunched over in pain.
"What's wrong with them?" Maria asked taking a few steps towards them as the sound of bones breaking could be heard.
"Scar bit them," scope stated with a shrug.
Samuel rolled onto his back as he roared out in pain. He stared at his quivering hands, as his nails cracked off before his eyes leaving bloody nubs which were slowly turning into claws.
Trash looked to the three, as she pleaded, "H-Hey, you guys are supposed to be heroes right? Help us out!"
Trash crashed her back into the wall, as she managed to free her arms, as she grabbed her tray shirt, and ripped it open, showcasing her C cup bare breasts, as she cried out, "OH GOD, I'M BURNING!"
Both the thugs began to pant now, their breathing becoming erratic. Samuel arched his back as he began to grow, his shirt getting tighter as his torso grew larger and then his muscles began to swell. His cries of pain began to shift into low growls as his head writhed back and forth, his eyes slowly beginning to glow.
As they both roared in pain, their cries became that of howls as their skin slowly began to shift into that of fur, creeping up their bodies. Samual's a deep black with grey undercoat and Trash's green with a purple highlight.
"Lets go," muttered Scar as he began to march towards the vaults door.
"But what about them," Huntress asked as she watched as their mouths and noses extended into muzzles.
"Fuck em," Scar growled as he reached down to the lock, gripping at it with his claws and with a flex of his arms tore it away. "Their Roland's problem now."
"But I wanted to see the girls boobs grow." Scope cried.
"Watch your girlfriends then, we need to get out and help Alpha... Lord knows he is some kind of problem..."
It was at that point a scream shot through each of their minds, a shriek of ear splitting proportions shocking them all to the edge of nerves. Looking around for the source none of them could hear or see the source, but as they did Scope shot up and pressed his finger up against where his human ear would have been.
"Hello? Gothina is that you?"
'Guys? Oh man, am I glad to hear you. Listen, we need everyone at the front fast,'
"Why, what's going on out there," Maria asked.
Mikey blinked as he asked, "Is that...?" But then snapped back as he remembered, "Oh yeah, Zetas are telepaths."
"Gothina what is he issue?"
However there was no response, and for a moment the group shared a worried look as they exited the vault, the screams of Roland's two bitten tugs echoing behind them. However soon Gothina could be heard almost yelling in their minds.
"Python is here... and he has naga women!"
Scar looked shocked, as did Scope, as they both asked, "Naga women?!"
Huntress arched an eyebrow, as she asked, "You serious?"
Meanwhile
In the 'Testing' Room
Pain.
Agony.
The pitter patter of bones straining, as they sat on the edge of cracking apart. Jeremy felt all these sensation as saliva dribbled from his mouth, his gag reflex going like crazy as he felt his body grow, then shrink, then grow again as the chemical that now rocked his body distorted his form in inconsistent ways,
At times he could see the changes, a tear in his trousers, as one leg grew too big for it to hold; a shoe flying off in twelve directs as it was shattered by a enormous foot; his shirt suddenly seeming three sizes too small as his torso withered away. These all returned to normal in a span of a few seconds by for Jeremy it felt like eons.
It was worse for Theo, Ryle could only hear his friends screams, they were louder, and more powerful then his own, his pain drowning out his and in a sick way giving him something to focus on.
'No... not like... this...'
Jeremy gritted his teeth as his hand began to grow and squeezed against his restraints as if it was trapped in a anvil. He swore as the pain became more then he could bare, but he would not give in.
'I-I... -'
"No!"
His scream boomed out through the room, and he shook his head, a deep power building within his stomach.
A will to survive: help his friend.
'Heh. That's the spirit.' Said a strange voice.
Jeremy open his now weeping eyes, as he heaved as he looked around for the source of the noise.
'Hey in here.' Said the voice within his mind. 'Ready to actually do something? Actually be someone?'
Jeremy felt the tears trickle down his eyes as he listened unable to think through the pain.
'Dear lord your pathetic. But kid you got something,' snorted the voice as at the same time that power welled up inside him. 'Set back and rest kid, let a real man deal with this.'
And for Jeremy one word escaped his lips.
"What..."
Unfortunately the effects were already starting to manifest it was just that Jeremy was simply unaware of them. His green eyes soon filled with a yellow glow that completely covered the eyes. Though Jeremy originally needed glasses to help with poor eyesight this changed corrected the problem. Having lost his glasses during his capture Jeremy was oblivious to this improvement. His mind was too focused on trying to escape to even process the change.
Adrenaline rushed through his body fueled by his desperation, but they were not the only things that were pumping through his veins. Hormones rushed through his body causing Jeremy to gasp in surprise at the sudden rush. All the veins were visible beneath the skin suffuse with an unnatural green glow. This set all of his nerves alight and he shook his seat at the explosions of sensations that bombarded him. His face clenched into a grimace while he struggled not to faint.
The brown hair on his head started to shift too. Slowly the hair started to grow longer and thicker giving him a more rugged appearance. At the roots of the hair the color started to lighten away into a pure white. It spread quickly and before long the entire top had turned completely white. Still Jeremy was unaware of this while his mind braced against the jumble of thoughts that were confusing him.
Jeremy desperately wanted to escape, but found it increasingly harder to concentrate on escape. His concentration was faltering at the outrage blossoming inside. Frustration at being unable to break free soon gave way to anger. He was angry at these bindings for being so difficult. He felt angry at his captor for imprisoning him. He felt angry at himself for being so weak. Jeremy did not want to so weak and pathetic any longer. He needed power stronger than anyone else.
Grinding his teeth which got sharper, his hands struggled against the binding that wrapped around his wrist. Seeking some leverage he dug his fingers into the armrest and tugged at them. The sound of creaking could be heard as the frame started to bend slightly Encouraged Jeremy redoubled his effort shutting his eyes while he tried to pull himself free. His hands that gripped at the armrest started to swell and grow larger. The fingers stretched out covering more of the armrest and were even leaving indentions. A greenish pallor started to spread across the surface of the skin over the hand that soon traveled up the arms. Underneath the sleeves the arms were filling up and losing their scrawny shape.
It was getting even harder for Jeremy to think. His eyes still clenched shut while his face started to reshape itself preventing him observing the changes unfolding. The greenish pallor that first appeared around his hands was spreading all over. The feeling of tightness gripped his entire body that was steadily growing larger. In a few seconds he already gained several inches, but even as the bones were expanding the muscles beneath too were growing. His clothes started getting even tighter as his body swelled with musculature. The scrawny frame of before was developing into a more striking physique.
The changes to Jeremy's body coincide with changes in his mind. His fear had vanished and all thoughts were becoming focus on avenging himself on his captors. The simmering rage from before was still present, but the surging potency coursing through the body had changed his attitude. He was no longer feeling weak anymore. Power as coursing through him and he realized this most be the change. But he no longer feared it instead he welcomed it. Unconcern about the consequences as long as it gave him the power to wreak havoc on anyone that dared to hurt him.
Jeremy rocked back and forth in the seat of the chair. Concerns about escaping were gone and instead he was basking in the surge of power filling his growing body. But this growth only made excruciating tightness of the clothing more acute. Most specifically around the crotch which was swelling in size within the pant to leave a very visible bulge. It proved incredible uncomfortable for Jeremy to keep his legs together and instead spread them out. This proved too much for the pants with the front zippers bursting open exposing his growing endowment. The pants continued to rip exposing the rest of his leg now packed with muscles.
His feet kicked hard against the ground while the chair whined loudly. The bolts securing the chair legs to the floor were starting to come loose. There was tightness in the shoes thanks to his growing feet. The swelling toes pushed against the front until finally bursting free. Wiggling free the feet pushed out until the shoes had fallen completely apart around them.
At this point Jeremy was starting to heave with excitement. The pain and desperation from before faded and replaced with arousal and excitement at the change. He was feeling absolutely incredible like nothing he ever felt before. It was so empowering and intoxicating. Yellow eyes open to behold the impressive form that his body was becoming. The greenish coloration that now completely covered him seemed perfectly acceptable to him and seeing the rippling muscles emerging was nothing less than exciting. Even gazing down at his exposed member at its size only filled with thoughts about the fun that could be had using it.
He was no longer the scrawny and pitiful boy from before and he loved it. Drinking in the power that continued to grow inside, Jeremy found the chair was becoming an increasingly uncomfortable fit. It easily was starting to look comically undersize with his new height. The seat of the chair was unable to contain his lower body that pressed against the frame. He felt his chest surged with strength with the muscles pushing out and ripping through his shirt. Taking several deep breaths it felt invigorating and he realized that the change seemed to have finished.
Now standing in the place of the chair was a green skinned body builder, ever inch of his form cut and defined to highlight each and every muscle. His hair was white and spikey, coming down to his ears, and just over his eyes. His face was still somewhat youthful, but handsome, soft cheekbones which rode high on his face complimented his squaring chin and large growing yellow eyes. His hand then reached up and stroked his chin while another arm curled into a flex and his arm exploded in a wall of steel.
He grinned, or rather the 'new him grinned.'
Speaking with that voice he had heard in his head he looked down on his goliath like form and smiled. "Yeah, that works... Goliath." His eyes lingered on his member and snorted: Jacqueline had a lot coming for her.
It was then he heard a moan, and with only a backwards glance looked over his shoulder to see his friend.
"Ain't you done yet?"
Theo looked pale and sweating hard. It was obvious the chemicals were still bubbling out through his system... without rest.
Jeremy just turned up his nose and smirked as he watched his friend sweat, a cool smile crossing along his lips. He knew what was coming, he could see it in Theo's crying eyes: his glowing eyes.
There was a snap, a pop and a creaking sound which emanated from Theo. His hands slowly grew larger as he rolled his neck, crying out in pain as tears dripped down his eyes.
Yet when he opened them all he got was the smirking face of the green wall of muscle before him.
He froze, for a moment forgetting the pain as his rib cage began to push out against his torso: to which the green naked Hyde laughed.
"Your pathetic," the deep and manly voice boomed with confidence. "But I can see that's about to change."
Theo sweated and groaned, "I... don't feel right... ugh..."
Slowly the buttons on Theo's shirt popped off, one by one. His frame seemed to rise up, growing taller as beneath the clothing muscle began to pack onto the winery reporter/DJ.
Goliath licked his lips, excited by the rush of seeing his friend grow, would he get as big as him?
Adrenaline rushed through his body fueled by his desperation, but they were not the only things that were pumping through his veins. Hormones rushed through his body causing Theo to gasp in surprise at the sudden rush. All the veins were visible beneath the skin suffuse with an unnatural red glow. This set all of his nerves alight and he shook his seat at the explosions of sensations that bombarded him. His face clenched into a grimace while he struggled not to faint.
The blonde hair on his head started to shift too. Slowly the hair started to grow longer and thicker giving him a more rugged appearance. At the roots of the hair the color started to lighten away into a pure black. It spread quickly and before long the entire top had turned completely white. Still Theo was sweating up a storm, as he was unaware of this while his mind braced against the jumble of thoughts that were confusing him.
Jeremy's felt a rush of emotion as he saw his Friend's body slowly pack on muscle, his reddening flesh slowly reform as a pair of mighty pectorals shredded the button shirt which was being drawn across it. His abs taking them apart fiber by fiber as the material was drawn across them like cheese on a grater.
Still Goliath found his mouth getting very dry and his breathing heavy as he watched as Theo's trousers split around the shins, the tear widening as powerful muscular thighs, like iron, cut their way through: the trousers shattering and his member spilling out with a great thud against the now creaking chair.
Goliath felt himself grow a little harder as his Friend's member swung between his legs; his widening as with his now Herculean arms He tore himself free of the restraints.
Goliath smirked: "Looking good Theo" he got closer as he walked closer, allowing his third leg to slap against his bare thighs. "Maybe I should forget Jaqueline and have you instead?"
"Or perhaps me?" Came a sultry female tone.
Standing in the doorway were two figures one male, one female. The male was Caucasian, with slicked back hair which stuck out the back like spikes. He had a strong build and was cracking his knuckles as he walked in, grinning ear to ear. He wasn't wearing much, only a latex outfit which really was only a pear of shorts.
The girl meanwhile had pink hair and was actually draped in a towel, hiding her figure, and given her predicament her expression was understandably awkward: she seemed embarrassed to be there.
Still the boy walked further in now clicking his neck as he looked up the powerful and bare form of Goliath who was standing over the still reddening flesh of his friend.
"Well, looks like we found one of the break ins." The boy laughed darkly as his eyes flashed yellow. "Time to teach'em a lesson Hazmat."
"Umm... okay..." The girl muttered awkwardly.
"Its Buzzsaw, HazMat," the boy grinned as Goliath rolled his eyes.
"And what is two scrawny individuals like you going to do to a god like me." As if to mock them he motioned to his body his hands lingering on his crotch as it would intimidate them.
However the boy just grinned. "I'd was hopin you'd say that."
He looked to Courtney, as he smirked, his eyes changing from is brown color... to an eerie yellow, "Ready, Hazmat?"
Her eyes closed, as she opened to reveal a green glow, "Y-Yes, I am, Buzzsaw."
Slowly the boy began to transform, his body posture distorting and growing. His eyes unlike most Hydes began to glow an eerie green as his arms and legs became long and sinew, tight coiled muscle packed onto an elongated frame. His skin would turn a sickly pale green, like that of a corpse, as the skin split down his spine, as long black thorn like spikes shot out of his back, his face would sprout sharp fangs and his hair would go a deep black and grow down his back for a moment hiding his eyes and his more handsome face.
He growled and smiled with his sharp like teeth. "oh yeah, this feeling... it's all I want."
Goliath arched an eyebrow, as he tied a cloth around his waist, making a makeshift loincloth, as he asked, "What the what?"
The now lank hyde just started to laugh as he grinned over at the girl whose hair was even now slowly turning green.
Before Goliath got a chance to answer the grey black hyde lunged at him punching him in the gut and launching him off his feet and into the wall. He tried to respond only to find the hyde leaping down on him and biting him in the neck with his razor sharp teeth.
Goliath however grunted, grabbed the orange hyde by the neck and lifted him off the ground throwing him back. Yet Buzzsaw caught himself and skidded along the ground grinning.
The Hyde known as Buzzsaw cackled like a maniac, as he flexed his finger,s growing into sharp claws, "GHAHAHAHHAHAHA! Oooh, we got ourselves a live one, Hazmat! What about...?"
CRASH!
All three Hydes turned around to see a smoking hole in the wall that led upstairs. Behind Goliath was the chairs that held both him and Theo... but now all of Theo's clothes were shredded and strewn. And leading away from them were footprints that had doubled in size.
Goliath saw that hsi friend had gone fully Hyde and had flown the coup. He slapped his head as he groaned, "Theo, you..."
His words were silenced by Buzzsaw who clawed hand lunged for Goliath's throat, the razor sharp needles slicing flesh and cutting off the green titans words.
Turning to the now green Hyde in the yellow black body suit, Buzzsaw screamed. "You go find that one! I will clean up this wretch!"
Not waiting for a backwards glance Hazmat leapt off through the hole leaving Buzzsaw alone with Goliath who had grabbed his neck as it now leaked green glowing blood. Goliath choked as his words were cut off by his own severed throat. He growled and swore because that was all he could do... yet as he did he felt the tear in his neck grow smaller and close up, as above him Buzzsaw gloated.
"Ah poor Hyde, thinks he is hot shit... Ain't nothing can stand up to my claws." He roared, letting out a cackle as he did so.
"No, not really," Goliath growled, as he revealed the wound had healed, "Just learning you're a one-trick pony is all."
In one smooth motion Goliath bought his arm back and then shot it towards Buzzsaws jaw and delivered a powerful upper cut. The air around them both seemed to quake as the grey hyde was launched off his feet and upwards through the roof, shattering the ceiling and showering Goliath in debris, as the roof above him and the one above that and the one above that was shattered by the single powerful blow.
Rising to his feet Goliath smirked as he looked up through the holes he had created all the way to the full moon and smiled. "Oh yeah. I am the best."
Meanwhile
PUMP Manufacturing Labs
Jackie smashed through an armored door, as the She-Hyde steadied herself. She brushed her hair a bit, as she groaned, "Ugh! Didn't think all this superheroing was so dirty."
'well, nobody ever said it was glamorous work,' Jacqueline replied.
Jackie shook her head, "Whatever, I..." But then stopped, as she looked at what she was in front of. Her usual smug demeanor was now in wide-eyed shock at what she was seeing, "Whoa..."
'Yeah, I can see it too,' Jacqueline replied.
Jackie had just stepped out into a factory room floor, except from wall to wall now stood what appeared to be holding tanks. Each of these tanks were at least as tall as the three story warehouse, and they were packed next to each other lining what had to by a 60 meter long room, lining the walls from end to end. Each tank cast a eerie green glow on the roof, and while from the ground Jackie could not see what was within it, she could see written on the side in big green writing four letters.
PUMP
Jackie for the first time in her super powered, super confident, super sexy existence gulped.
"That's a lot of Hyde formula..."
'How on earth did they manage to manufacture this much? This is disastrous,' Jacqueline gulped.
Jackie looked around as she looked at one of the bigger vats, "Yeesh, what are tehy planning to do? Make an army?"
"That's the plan... well my plan." Came a voice from across the hall.
Across at the hall stood a rather short and petite girl with horn rimmed glasses pink flayed skirt and a white lab coat. She was smirking as she stood next to one of the tanks, using a comically small tap in the side to fill up a series of bottles made of green hyde formula.
She smirked at them as she pushed her glasses up her nose, causing the lenses to flare as she smiled at the hyde before her.
"Hello... Jackie... or should I say Jaqueline Jekyll."
Jackie and Jaqueline for the first time ever then spoke as one as they said a single word.
"Elaine?"
Jackie looked away, trying to do her best to be unfazed by this fact, "Jacqueline who? Never heard of her. She sounds like a scrawny nobody who's kootch is dried up from not getting any."
'HEY!' Jacqueline cried out.
"I have to agree with you on that," Elaine stated, adjusting her glasses. "She was never pretty, nor was she ever even popular with boys. or even with girls if she was desperate."
'HEY, COME ON! I'm just trying to find the right guy for me,' Jacqueline cried out in annoyance.
'She can't hear you' Jackie smirked, causing Jaqueline to fume.
Elaine however expression deepened into a scowl as she watched Jaqueline just stand there for a moment as the two minds in one body had their back and forth. Slowly the young scientist pushed her glasses up her nose and let out a long sigh.
"And then, after everything you are, you are the same self absorbed and narrow minded person."
This accusation caught both Jackie and Jaqueline's attention.
"I mean..." rambled Elaine "you stand there with the body of a god, with a formula which can selectively rewrite a persons DNA based on their subconscious desire. A key to immortality, humanities future, taking what is flawed and making it malleable to your will and... and..."
A vessel seemed to burst in Elaine's eye as her fist clutch the empty bottle she had been holding, shaking it back and forth as if she was mentally deciding to throw it at her.
"Your pathetic. How you are the heir of one the greatest minds in alchemical history I will never know. You are a child playing with the ambrosia. The food of the gods, and at least I have made a move to use it to redefine the world."
Elaine held up her arms and motioned to the tanks of Pump.
Jackie sighed, a she rolled her eyes back, and then looked back at Elaine, "Okay, first of which. I'm Not Jacqueline Jekyll, I'm Jackie Hyde, Bitch! And second, and I say this out of respect for all girls like me and her out there..." She then shouted at her looking pissed off, "You call Jacqueline Jekyll playing around!? Well, look who's called the kettle black, Missy. You've made a brutish form of a Hyde that makes me look bad! You're the only one who's laying around, little girl!"
'Jackie, please don't say it,' Jacqueline begged.
"And by little, I'm talking about the sapling branches on your chest," Jackie smirked, as she bent over, giving Elaine a view of her impressive bosom.
Elaine just sighed and shook her head.
"And once more you prove my point. Breasts? Who needs breasts? Playing around? Please I have managed to get all of this up and running in what a week?" She motioned to the room and smirked. "Also my first Hyde may be just brutish but with every step we advance the cause of science little by little. Like so..."
Walking out from behind her, and waltzing on beams that were bolted above, just to look down on Jackie, the first Hyde got a glimpse on what this fool was working on.
The first one on the right stood above 6-7 feet in height, a sexy Amazon build, and ridiculous G-Cup chest. Her hair reached down to her ankles, and was a split of ice blue and fiery red, along with her skin turning a split between Ice blue and Fiery Red; the red on her right while the blue on the left, and her eyes were white with a white glow. The fingers on her left hand were Red while her right was blue, along with the same for her toes. She had two bangs that were yellow that were like lightning bolts. Her Hyde attire consists of a black one piece bathing suit with a turtleneck, with a V neckline with black straps and white trim. She had black leggings that went up to her upper thighs with white armor on her thighs, knees, and greaves, with ankle guards and toe guards. She had black arm sleeves with white straps on her shoulders, under her elbows and wrists, with white handguards. As a finishing touch, she had a white shawl around her hips and backside, with black trim to them. And if need be, she had a white hood with black trim she had attached to her one piece.
The second one on the left stood taller than the other female Hydes, as her height was about 8-9 feet in height, with a sexy amazon build, and a ridiculous P-Cup chest. Her hair, which was a bob cup that had the tips of her bangs go to her shoulders, was a metallic gray color, along with her skin colored iron dark blue. Her eyes were yellow as well. But on her back were four large bumps with two on the back of each elbow. her attire was a metallic gray spandex suit that went from neck to feet, a slip-on sock suit so to speak, with no arms or back, and showed cleavage in an upside-down pentagon shape, with it being a strap to the left, held together by two buttons. She had blue trim under the boobs, on the boobs, the turtleneck, and blue straps around her thighs, calves, and ankles. She had a blue belt, and strapped to her back were two mighty iron shields. Her arms were in metallic gray arm sleeves with blue straps on her shoulders, elbows, and wrists.
Elaine smirked in triumph, as she pronounced, "Jackie Hyde, allow me to introduce your betters," And pointed Right to left to introduce them both, "Bi-Storm and Girder. They are your superiors in every way." And pointed at Jackie Hyde, glaring down with a satisfied smirk on her face, "ADMIT THAT YOU ARE YESTERDAY'S TRASH, AND THAT YOU ARE NOTHING MORE THAN INFERIOR TRASH, MUCH LIKE YOUR ANCESTOR!"
Jackie arched an eyebrow, as she sighed, rubbing her forehead, "I think I know what your big flaw is, Elaine."
Elaine sneered at the unbroken Hyde, as she denied it, "I have no flaws!"
"Your flaw..." Jackie replied, not wavering while in front of the two new Hydes, "Is that you're obsessed with the need to want me to admit you're my better."
For all but a moment the smug look across Elaine's face slowly twisted, her eyes so filled with confidence began to darken as she lowered her head and they were cast with shadows. Her forthright posture, which oozed confidence as she arched her back grew ever more slouched as she bought her arms in as they began to quake wit barely controlled anger. In that one moment Elaine shifted her whole attitude and the blood vessel in her other eye burst.
"kill her."
And Jackie smirked, dropping into a defensive stance. "Knew I was right."
Jacqueline gulped, 'I didn't think that would piss her off.'
Girder jumped right at the white and black-haired Hyde. She balled her fists up as her knuckles extended out into knuckle brass-shapes.
However it was bi-storm which struck first. She wailed into Jackie with her fists like a frenzied animal, pounding away at her over and over again. Jackie however reacted in turn slapping a few punches away, her hands moving on automatic as she redirected one blow after the other. Still this left a sizable gap in her defenses which grinder followed up on jumping high and brining her knuckles down to collide with Jackie's chest. On instinct though like in the past ew days Jackie braced herself ready to take the blow and dish back punishment in short order.
However she was not prepared for this super powered punch.
Sent shooting backwards, she flew a short distance before hitting the floor and rolling in the dust. She had time to look up though her red bangs to see the two female Hydes descending on her again Bi-storm again landing the first blows smiling from ear to ear, as Grinder hung back and waited for an opening.
Raising a hand as she got to her feet Jackie caught the first fist from Bi-storm and quickly headbutted her in the face: then as Grinder rushed into help Jackie moved the dazed Hyde into the way of the enhanced fist causing Grinders blow to slam into Bi-storms back.
Neither of her assailants got a chance to even yell at one another for the blunder, as Jackie reached out with her free arm while keeping a hold of Bi-storms fist to reach for Grinders fist. Running forward with only a few steps of her powerfully toned thighs she moved between them and yanked hard down on the arms taking both of them off balance and then letting go spun around low to sweep their legs out from under them.
There was a crash like falling boxes as the huge Hyde and the more average one hit the dirt with their own puff of dust and Jackie grinned, turning back to Elaine.
"These really my replacements." Her smirk was palpable and Elaine shook her fist in rage.
"Get up you idiots!"
Jackie though had half a split second realization as Jaqueline yelled in her mind 'watch out' before grinder was behind her, suddenly back on her feet and wrapping her arms around her neck.
Girder tightened her grip, lifting Jackie off the ground while she only had a slight pressure to make it hard for Jackie Hyde to breathe, as she looked to the recovering Bi-Storm, "Bi-Storm! Get off your butt and help! Finish her off!"
Bi-Storm managed to get back on her feet, as without warning, and much without her care, her hands each spout out a different element building around them. With her blue hand, ice and cold started to form, while her red hand burned with heat, "Hold her still!"
Girder, not caring about the abilities, whispered in Jackie's ear, "Dasvidanya, Jackie Hyde. That's Russian for goodbye."
Bi-Storm roared, as she charged at Jackie, preparing to burn and freeze the first Hyde girl.
Yet one thing these two Hydes did not realize, even about themselves is that Hydes are very durable: and Jackie was quite comfortable with a momentary lapse in oxygen.
Shooting her hands out Jackie stopped struggling with grinder and instead seized Bi-Storms arms. Forcing them around her head, the fire lightly singeing her raven locks, she jabbed the flaming and Ivey arms into the eyes of Grinder. As soon as the screaming started Jackie was free and dropped to her knees. She looked up to see Bi-storm's confused expression, as dual colored Hyde peered back down between her arms, which were still lodged in Grinders face. It lasted all but a moment as Jackie smirked swung around and with a super powered led sweep tripped Bi-Storm and Girder off their feet.
The pair of hydes hit the ground with a deafening boom, as Elaine stamped her feet and bellowed out. "Dam it there are two of you and one of her! Do I have to call Dale in here?!"
Seemingly spurred on by their creators words the two amazons went to get back to their feet but Jackie gave them no chance. She grabbed Grinder by the waist and smirked.
"Hey want to see something cool off TV?"
Not waiting for an answer Jackie pulled the eight feet Hyde off the ground and arching her back so far it looked as though it had snapped in two piledrive Grinder head first into the still rising Bi-Storm.
The two were about to get up, but Jackie slammed her foot down on both, knocking the wind out of them. She looked to Elaine, as she demanded, "Alright. I have some questions I'd like to ask you before I drop-kick your ass, and theirs again. Firstly, how'd you get the formula?"
Elaine's first reaction was to glare, yet it soon became a smirk.
"Well it's pretty easy to steal something from a persons bag when they aren't looking." Elaine bit back, he left smile not hiding the venom she placed into every word. "Still you really are an idiot for hiding one of the ten greatest treasures of alchemy in a book bag, I mean some would kill to have that journal. I know: I considered it..."
Jackie frowned at the girl, as she asked, "And you think Jacqueline Jekyll's unworthy? Yeah right."
Elaine rolled her eyes at this and slowly packed the last bottle she had been filling into her box and closed the lid. Slowly she picked up the box and made her way along the storage tanks to a door which crashed in as a truck arrived with Gus in tow.
"I do. Just as I see you as nothing more than a biproduct of the hyde formula." Elaine smirked as Jackie slowly began to advance on her.
BANG! BANG! BANG!
Jackie felt the first bullet which was fired at her from the car and then felt it as it slammed into her shoulder. The second one hit her again and she felt a tearing sensation as her skin was split and she was knocked off her feet by the third which cut deeply into her thigh. She swore as whatever was in the rounds began to burn at her skin as she clutched them and fell to the ground.
Gus slowly stepped out of the drivers seat, holding the largest pistol Jackie had ever seen. A sallow look was on his face as Elaine walked towards him and handed him the crate, which he held under one arm.
"Hands off my girlfriend you freak." he muttered as he kept the gigantic revolver locked on Jackie.
Jackie however tried to move but felt her wounds not close up as she gritted her teeth to hold back the pain. It was like fire but worse, as it bore into her very soul.
"You never did take into consideration the consequences of using lycanthropy as a catalyst did you Jaquelin." Elaine called, taking the pistol from Gus and marching back towards her pinned foe. She fired two more shots one in her arm and her other in her leg: Jackie howled as it became impossible to think. "Armour piercing silver nitrate rounds..." She explained as she got close enough to get a clean shot at Jaqueline's head but far away enough to not be punched out by the hyde. "Silver hurts werewolves, just as it now hurts you."
"Will you fucks shut up I am gloating here."
Distracted Gus, Elaine and Jackie looked up to see Roland on one of the catwalks suspended over the tanks, marching towards a werewolf who was bleeding heavily from the leg: a giant pistol like the one Gus and Elaine had in one of his hands.
"Alpha," Jackie yelled.
Alpha, who was sliding away from the approaching Roland, grabbed the railing, as he lifted himself, glaring at the mad teen. His body however, was slowly shifting back to human form, as he groaned, "Roland, you can't work with Python, or let alone distribute the Hyde Formula. You can't control either one of them."
"Shut it! Shut it! I have had it up to hear with people telling me what to do." He leveled his pistol at Alpha's head as he screamed. "All my life I have had weak idiots telling me what to do! Teachers! The police! Now werewolves! Hell even my own parents - that's why I killed them. Just like I am gonna kill you."
Out from behind him on a doorway leading onto the second level same a short boy with blonde hair. "You told me they died in a car crash!"
"Charles run, your gonna... ahhhh…" Alpha groaned as his fur began to recede the, and his snout twisted between human and his werewolf form.
"Shut it pip squeak. Your lucky I am letting you ride my coat tails. Because with all this shit I am gonna be..."
"Hey boss!" Screamed Gus as he shook his fist at him. "We gotta go, police will be here any minute with all this fighting."
However the boy called Charles was not done as he yelled, running out along the walkway. "You killed our parents," he cried. "you mon..."
BANG!
A single shot rang out as Roland shifted his aim, a giant round slamming into Charles gut sending the young boy flying back.
Roland snorted as he spun around to level his gun at Alpha's head as he tried to hide his now human face from Roland. He smirked, his eyes going wide. "You know I always wanted to be an only child." He said with a delusional grin on his face.
"Boss!"
"Yeah I am killing him." he yelled as he raised his gun again and smirked. "By by you pathetic..." he paused as he tilted his head and taken by surprise. "Peter?"
That was the opening Alpha needed. His mouth shifted into a wolfs muzzle and he leapt forward, his teeth biting into Roland's gun arm aside, the bullet fired though scraping along peters cheek and then hitting the nearby support strut. The walkway buckled, and Roland was knocked to one side: he hit the railing which held his weight. For a moment. Without the support strut the bar snapped free and the walkway began to swivel to one side: with all his impressive mass and muscle Roland could not maintain balance and slipped falling downwards towards the vat of hyde formula.
And with that distraction Jackie saw her opening. Slamming both her fists into the ground she tore free the floor beneath her feet tripping Elaine up and lifting the boulder over her head. She threw it upwards at the tank behind her, the one Rolland was falling into and smashed it open.
Elaine got a momentary glance as green liquid poured out on top of her and could hear Castle scream for her.
"ELAINE!"
Roland was thrashing within the tank, almost gurgling screams, while Elaine was drenched from head to toe. At the moment, Peter rushed over to Charles, cradling him in his arms, "Charles? Charles! Charlie!"
Charles whimpered, as he held the bullet wound, "He-He shot my parents..."
"I know, we all heard," Peter replied, holding the wound as best he could. "Dear God, we've got to stop the bleeding."
"I know they weren't the best of parents, but they didn't throw me out," he whimpered, not from the pain, but from the horrible truth, "My whole family is nothing but monsters." He then cried, looking over to Peter, as he smiled, "Not like you, Peter."
Peter sadly smiled to him, "Thanks for that, Charles."
He coughed a little, blood seeping out, as he cried, "I... wish you were my brother, Peter."
Down below though Jackie lifted her hair up. All around her Hyde formula lingered , as it began to seep up to her waist. She could see Gus hauling Elaine's body from the pool and rushing it back to the truck as quickly as he could.
However for Jackie though she was stuck, her pain in her arms and legs were too much as she stared down at her reflection in the green pool. Her pale face reflected back at her as she sighed. This had all gone so wrong.
It was then she heard a laugh, Grinder and Bi-storm were back on their feet and like her were drenched in the green PUMP formula.
"Oh looks like Jackie here ain't ready for round two."
Girder raised her arms as the bumps on them enlarged, "I believe it is time to finish her. Dah?"
Yet before she came down on Jackie out of nowhere came a huge piece of scrap metal which collided with Grinder, as a powerful voice yelled out. "I would not do that if I were you."
A green fist flew out of nowhere and collided with Girders face. The gigantic Hyde slammed into the puddle of Hyde formula and splashed through it sliding away. Bi-Storm did raise her multicolored arms, generating fire and ice in each, only to find her feet knocked out from under her as Jackie, kicked her legs out from under her for the second time that day.
Both evil female Hydes crashed into the wall, slumping down, as they groaned, as they tried to right themselves. Jackie got up, as she brushed herself off, and turned towards the guy with the green fist, "Thanks. Gotta say, I'm not much on asking for help, but you..." But then blinked, and almost fell over as she saw the big strong, and a rather handsome looking green male Hyde before her. Her usual cocky face seemed more now of a lovestruck teen girl; something that Jacqueline usually did.
And it sounded like it too, as she spoke up, barely over a whisper, "You... you... you..." And slowly started to giddily grin, "You amazingly amazing being..."
Goliath leaned back a bit, as he arched an eyebrow, "Huh?"
'Uh, Jackie,' Jacqueline asked trying to snap her supposed confident and cool persona back to reality, 'Jackie, snap out of it!'
Jackie snapped back as she looked at Goliath for the first time, "Oh hey, thanks for the assist there, Stud." She then began to fiddle with her hair by pulling it over her left shoulder and gently pulling at it, like stroking a cat's tail. "Usually, I never get assist like that, but I'd welcome it, um..."
"Goliath, Jackie Hyde," Goliath introduced himself.
Jackie blushed, as she pointed to herself, "'I'm Jackie Hyde."
Goliath blinked, "Oh no, I said..."
Jackie giggled, "I know, I was just teasing... Hehehehe." She laughed nervously while acting like a girl in front of her crush. But then she looked down, and turned 180 degrees away, as she blushed, "You might wanna cover up your pet iguana down there, pal. Don't wanna flash the villainesses over there."
Goliath blinked, as he looked downward, and immediately covered his oversized trouser snake, as he blushed, "Oh, right. Excuse me." And shuffled over yonder to a tarp laid down.
Jackie sighed, as she verbally spoke to herself, "This guy makes me not like myself."
It was then the pair heard a screeching of tires, and then received a face full of PUMP as Gus car kicked up the foul drug as it tore off towards the exit.
"Ah its in my hair," Jackie yelled as she covered her eyes.
"Its in my... well loin cloth."
With a ponderous look which bordered on hunger Jackie's eyes drifted south as they followed every inch of Goliaths body, down to his mentioned 'cloth' Her hands began to shake as Jaqueline's voice just groaned inside the deepest recesses of her mind.
'No! bad Jaqueline! Stop it! The bad guys are..."
But Jaqueline was already on Goliath, lunging at him with the hunger and speed of a cheetah, she pounced onto him and tore into him with her lips. Yet inside their shared mind Jaqueline let out a long sigh.
'I wonder what happened to Mari?'
With a thunderous crash a brick wall shattered and with a splash two snake like women hit the ground landing in the pool of PUMP that was now slowly starting to rise around the unconscious bodies of Grinder and Bi-storm. The snake like women had scarily skin, their three fingered clawed hands gently reaching for the air in their dazed and beaten state; tattered clothes still clung to their bodies, and their now lizard like snouts opened in a slack jawed expression that only unconsciousness can bring, revealing their row upon row of now razor sharp, carnivorous teeth.
"Wow Comette wasn't kidding when she mentioned hot lizard women." Jackie stated with a Laugh.
"No I wasn't," cried a voice from the hole knocked in the second floors wall.
Jackie took a step forward, to look up at the hole, and saw a tattered-uniformed Mari. The White Hyde smiled with joy, as she waved, "Hey, girl. You okay? You look like you lost a fight with a blender."
Comette just flashed a big grin, and with some effort managed to raise her gold skinned arm and flash a tired exhausted grin.
Then at the edge of hearing, the trio of Hydes heard the noise, a sound like a faint whirring sensation, or a dull drone. Jackie raised an eyebrow as to wonder what it was, her mind ticking over the possibilities before everything clicked. With a deft movement of her hand she snapped her fingers and shook her head.
"Well the police are hear," her mind working out the distant sound of sirens, approaching the factory by what her refined hearing could tell was at least a notable speed. Flashing a smile to the studly green man she managed to walk over, but with a noticeable limp and threw her arms around his waist. "Wanna come home and roll in the hay?" Jackie inclined her fine black eyebrows at Goliath, her luminescent eyes flashing as she did so.
"Sounds good," Goliath inquired, but then looked around, as he asked, "But shouldn't we wrap this up before anything else?"
Suddenly, they all heard an inhuman roar, as something shot out of the tank that Roland had fallen into. It crashed landed on hind feet between the Hydes and the wolves, of which Alpha had gently set Charles down, as he transformed back to his wolf form, and looked over the railing to see what had just appeared. Though at the moment, Charles started to slowly spasm and gasp, as he opened his eyes to reveal them to be yellow now.
At the moment, the creature slowly started to stand right back up, as it growled, revealing its form in full appearance to all. He stood almost nine to ten feet, 75 inches wide, almost dwarfing both Lycan and Hyde alike in that room. He had dark orange fur over the majority of his body, with black fur as his underbelly and facial fur. There were dark patches on his forarms and paws, mid inner thighs, and the back of his feet, as well as his ears. His body was long and bony, with a longer snout than most wolves. His eyes were black with only yellow spotted pupils. His most noticeable feature was that of the bone armored structures that grew on or out of his body. Bone structure plating grew on his shoulders, outer biceps, both with jagged bone spikes protruding out of them. The lower part of his forearms and back hands also had bone plating with jagged spikes growing out. His clawed fingers were long but strong jagged bone claws, along with his toes, and a spike growing out of the ankle, and on the knees bone plating with a spike shooting out of it. His tail was barely covered in fur but was now a huge and flexible jointed bone appendage with the tip of the tail being a sharp point. His snout was covered in bone with the teeth growing out, giving him an alligator snaggletooth overbite.
It growled almost inhumanly as it looked around at its opponents. All of a sudden, Scope had dropped in, "Hey guys! The cops are coming and…" and then paled, as he yelped, as its attention was drawn to him, "GAH! WHAT IS THAT THING?!"
"It's Roland, Scope!"
Scope blinked, as he looked to Alpha, almost in disbelief, as he gulped, "What'd you say?!"
Alpha pointed to the creature, as he shouted, "That thing is Roland!"
"Corvis," the creature that was once Roland Zollinski snarled as he slowly made his way to the recovering werewolf. "I recognize the scent now." He flexed his arms outward, with his claws clicking together, as he proclaimed, "I can smell all kinda scents now." He stopped as he towered over Mikey as he flexed his fingers and looked at his limbs, "I always wondered what it would have been like to have what you wolves had. But now I have it and more. The power, the immortality… I feel like a new man. Or beast."
Mikey then managed to squeak out, "Least you don't have that goofy curly hair anymore."
Suddenly, Mikey yelped as Roland picked him up, as he now was close to Mikey's face, as he smirked, "To thank you and Talbot, Corvis… I'll make your deaths quick."
Meanwhile off in a corner, Jackie's eyes fell. Her arm still held tightly around the waist of Goliath,, her lip curling as she shut her eyes and let out a long, wherry sigh. Then with a moment of laxity she turns back to the hyde in hand and smiles.
"So, as I was saying. You busy tonight?"
However Comette was not so easy to convince. "Jackie!" The Golden yellow hyde snapped her fingers before cracking her knuckles and nodding towards the now bestial Rolland, her own legs slowly going from a walk to a jog as she worked her way up to a charge.
"Oh fine!" Jackie's exasperation was so clear that even a bystander would get she was now raving mad. "Hold whatever kinky thoughts you have big boy, I got to deal with this." Then before Goliath even had time to respond, Jackie squeezed him by the waist and then spun around, marching off towards the combat, each footstep perfectly placed, rolling her hips and her athletic heart shaped rear.
"I have a man made god next to me
"That's good to hear," Alpha said as he leapt off, and landed on Roland's back, as he grabbed the long hears and yanked hard, causing him to let go of Mikey, as he scurried off to the side to find an opening. The Monster of the Wolfman howled, as he clawed and thrashed around, unable to think clearly as Alpha continuously pulled hard to make him face upward, unable to see Comette heading towards him. "Now let's see if you Hyde Goddesses can deal with this Beast!"
Meanwhile
Elsewhere in the Warehouse
Gus kept one hand on the wheel, while he yelled orders into a portable radio with the other. He swerved the car around a bend as he pulled out of the industrial yard, trailed by four more vans just like his. He felt the road beneath him push him and the van up and down as they continued down a bumpy road and into the nearby woods, along a track which looked like it had not been used in decades.
"All units, all units. This is castle, bug out, I repeat bug out. Grandad is home and he is gonna find the cookie jar over!"
There was a smattering of affirmatives over the radio followed by a few unsure answers and one person asking.
"What the heck you on about Castle?!"
Castle gritted his teeth, and yelled back.
"The Feds are heading to the base you twat! Move your arse!"
He threw down the radio and placed both hands on the wheel and turned the van into a hard turn. He then cast a glance to the passages seat and smiled weakly.
"Y-you doing okay Elaine."
The small mousy girl groaned in the seat, her body writhing as the green pump slid down over her sodden clothes, from her pump bath.
Elaine coughed up the PUMP out of her mouth, as she sneered, "I won't be fine until I kill that… UGH!…"
But just as she was about to rant on killing Jaqueline Jekyll, a strange sensation caught her attention centered squarely at her chest. Taking a look down at the area there was nothing notable to see with the baggy front of the wet shirt hanging loosely from her torso. But what she was feeling was from her body beneath the clothing. Most notably she felt her nipples starting to ache slightly. Her cheek flushed at a bit at the unexpected sensation, but she hesitantly cupped her hands over that area of the shirt. Feeling the fabric of the shirt brush against the nipples produced a powerful jolt that surprised her and she gasped in surprise.
Arching her back in the seat from the abrupt sensation, Elaine felt herself getting incredibly warm afterwards that spread across her entire body. Hands still twitched in shock at what had just happened and she was acutely aware at how much her nipples had hardened now. Her breathing was getting irregular. She tugged the collar of the shirt to try and alleviate some of the pressure and warmth. Already her glasses had fogged up again making it impossible for her to see through them.
Annoyed at them, while trying to make sense of the warmth that came over her, she took them off to clean. But then she blinked in surprise at what she could see. Her horrible vision that forced her to wear glasses was different. Not different, it was improving. Typically she could only barely make out the shape of the glasses in her hand when she cleaned them. But now she could see them clearly. Turning to look around her lab, she was amazed to see how the once blurry backdrop was steadily becoming clearer.
Her eyes widen in surprise at what she was beholding. Unknown to her, those once brown eyes had now gradually shifted into a topaz color. Even more the eyes were emitting an unearthly glow that seemed to only grow brighter with each passing moment.
Unaware of the change in her eyes, the next change that came to her attention was the sudden pinching in her shoes below. Glancing down at them curiously, her improved vision could see them starting to look slightly deformed. Inside she felt her feet were becoming increasingly cramped within the confine of her shoes. This amazed and intrigued her that her body was actually now starting to grow and change.
In her heart she hoped desperately this would allow her to discard her plain and dull appearance. To perhaps take on appearance that would catch the eyes and attention of others, especially those she desperately wanted to notice her.
A tingling sensation in her hands caught her attention. She looked at the hand that still was holding the glasses. The changes were unfolding visibly before her eyes. Fingers were stretching and the hand was growing larger. She could see the subtle shift in the skin into a more supple form, the callous portions were smoothing out. Even the stunted and rough nails were changing too into distinctly longer feminine shape. The glasses being held were starting to appear smaller while her hand grew larger.
Finding it harder to keep a grip, she got out of the car, as she stumbled out, as Castle could only watch. With her growing stature that was effecting all of her body, the cuff of the sleeve got barely halfway pass her forearm. Much to her astonishment and delight she could see that the once thin limb was changed. Not just growing longer, but taking on a more rounded and sexy shape. Even more astonishing was the shape of musculature starting to press outward against the skin.
Eagerly taking in this sight, Elaine could not be more elated at what she was experiencing. Now she was not just feeling excitement, but even power surging from her body. There was something else awakening with her and she could feel a wellspring of confidence rising up.
Though she felt slight pinches across her face, which was subtly erase the plain features, the feeling of her hair proved more off-putting. The locks were shifting and tumbling into greater lengths than before. Her mid pixie cut came undone allowing the growing hair to cascade down her back. The hair took a reddish sheen which looked far brilliant then Elaine could have made them before. Enchanted by them, she brushed her hands through them amazed how thick and shining the hair had become now. But what surprise her more was seeing strands of yellow highlights starting to emerge from amidst some of the front hair.
But much as she wanted to study the unusual color alteration in her hair more. Another unexpected emergence caught her attention. The front of her shirt which was losing all the slack from her growth was suddenly pressed forward by her chest. Most noticeably to Elaine's surprise was how the breasts once barely visibly curve came alive. They suddenly inflated while staying firm in size that pushed her hardened nipples against the front of the shirt. Even the straps of her vest which were stretched taunted by her height were shoved to the side by her breasts pushing forward nearly shredding her sweater vest.
Elaine could only gape in surprise at the sizes they were now pressing up against the front of the shirt. Already she could spy the tempting cleavage being pressed tightly by the confines of the shirt even as gaps between the buttons were growing wider. Each breath brought another sting of pleasure from the nipples pressing hard against the fabric.
Elaine had never experienced such euphoria of pleasure then from this change. The raw bodily delight it awoke in her was like nothing else. The sheer sight of sporting bountiful bosoms that would be the envy of girls and lust of boys made her excited. But even more was seeing how they were still growing and testing the limit of her shirt to confine.
But even as more skin was being exposed because her growth the coloration started to shift too. They started to become a bright Smurf Blue. All over patches of smurf blue started to appear and spread across her body. Just as highlights of yellow were started appear along the front sides of her hair, this skin discoloration was visibly spreading across her exposed body.
The once calculating and impotent side of Elaine was completely gone. What was now asserting herself was someone who delighted and hungered for more. Perhaps if Elaine was able to look at things more objectively she would notice how her thinking and insight was being changed. But too delighted and eager for these changes made those concerns go unnoticed. So gradually the mind of Elaine, much like her body, was reshaping itself into someone far more bold and sexy, and possibly more perverse version of herself.
So distracted by the growth and pleasure by the emerging breasts, Elaine did not notice or heed what was happening below her waist. The feet were continuing to grow larger and pressed against the confines of her shoes and stockings. There was pain as the two struggled, but the pleasure that was seizing the changing girl easily dwarfed the discomfort. Until finally the shoes relented and tore open. The top of the shoe peeled away from the bottom sole to reveal her emerging feet. Already her toes had popped through her stockings as they wiggled outward in freedom along with black sharp toenails.
The rest of the stocking above fairly poorly wrapped around her legs which had grown distinctly muscular, yet still retained their sexy shape. Tears emerged across the stocking unable to stretch any further around the leg. Still hidden beneath her long skirt, the thighs and hips were widening too. Just to give her the right shapes for the growing Elaine to possess an arousing figure. Definitely becoming intoxicated with the power and pleasure her changing body emitted, she swayed her body sexily.
The movement proved too much for her vest which finally shredded to bits, but was unnecessary by this point. Her lush and statuesque body was proving too much for the remaining pitiful garments to cover up. The swelling cheeks of her butt pressed up against the rear of her skirt which could not hide that shapely form. She felt a brief sting before a welcome release as her panty had snapped off. Now all that was left was the stinging from the waistband of her skirt and belt. But those too snapped apart causing the skirt to drop off and exposing her entire lower half.
But she felt not even a shred of shame at being exposed like this. No, the personality that was quickly coming to the fore even welcomed this exhibitionist show. After all with this body that was so ravishing and so pleasing, it would be almost criminal to hide. This was another way she was finding herself being aggressive over the feelings that drove Elaine before. And she was delighted by this.
Still very much relishing this liberating feeling, Elaine started to explore her body as it enlarged. Her arms had become completely bare with the remains of the sleeves torn apart to reveal the smooth sexy form of her arms. The hands eagerly felt the muscles beneath the skin that were just priming with power. But also took notice of four black growths growing on the outer sides of the forearms.
Her hands then traveled down to her chest. The mounds had increased even further in size. Now they had grown so large that her hands could no longer cover them. Already all of the buttons had torn free from the shirt exposing the cleavage and inner swells of her breasts outward. Only the nipples still remained barely covered by the sides of her shirt. Uninterested in waiting any longer, she grab each sides of the shirt and tore it off. A laugh of delight escaped her lips at feeling her breasts shake free from the confines.
A smiles crossed her face that seemed quite different from any Elaine could ever make. It was a look of confidence that showcased her aggressive new outlook. Her eyes now completely glowed in a topaz tone.
And just like that the change was finished. The transformed woman tossed aside the torn remains of her shirt and stepped away from the piles of rags to examine her reflection. What she saw pleased her greatly.
No longer was she the plain Elaine Melbourne in her stance. Instead there was a tall and sexy woman brimming with confidence and power. The yellow highlights in her red hair and bangs, and smurf blue skin were distinct difference that marked her as something abnormal. But she did not mind it at all, instead finding them to be a welcome way to show her individuality.
Speaking of that, she found herself feeling rather disgusted at the notion of referring to herself as Elaine Melbourne. That name seemed weak, foreign, and unappealing to someone as magnificent, beautiful, and perfectly superior as she was now. So without a thought, she decided to take on a new name that is better suited for this new person she had become.
Castle, however, got out of the car, as he paled, "E-Elaine?"
Stretching out her body, finally free from the petty concerns and logic of her past self, the Hyde looked to Castle, showcasing sharp teeth, as she smirked, like a vicious animal, "Elaine's taking a hiatus at the moment. You're talking to the new Hyde. Helen Hyde."
She looked at the factory to where the fun was going on, as her smirk grew, "And it's high time that fraud, Jackie Hyde, learns who's truly superior."
Roland's roar came at the group like a sudden truck: its sonic shockwave, blasting at least Gothina off her feet. The hydes and werewolves then dived out of the way as the gigantic mutant werewolf Hyde then grabbed a section of the metal tank he had emerged from and threw it across the room, straight at Scope.
"Eppp," was the only noise the werewolf could say as the five meter long sheet of metal missed him by a inch, as he awkwardly dodged it: only to them stare at how it had cemented itself at least two meters into a stone wall.
"Alpha! Roland's cheating! He is using the environment!"
"Then let's cheat too," Alpha replied. as his hands were electrified due to his gauntlets, and jammed both his index and middle fingers in both the mutate's ears. "It's wet willie time!"
The mutant howled in rage shaking his head to throw him off, but Alpha held on for dear life. In this state though he was unprepared for the gut smash delivered by both Goliath and Jackie, knocking the wind out of him, as in unison Huntress and Queen stepped off the hydes back and then delivered a powerful kick to the monsters face.
Jackie grinned at Goliath and winked.
"Nice punch there," Goliath smirked.
Jackie, blushing but retaining her composure, nodded, "You're not half-bad yourself."
The next thing Jackie knew though was that she and Goliath were sailing through the air, as a wild super powered swing from the confused Roland knocked the distracted pair off their feet. They landed a short distance away, the brick wall they hit cracking, but not breaking. Jackie just groaned as she fished inside her suit and removed some debris which has gotten lodged inside her cleavage.
The derisive words of Comette reached their ears as she ducked under another of Roland swings, and then between his mangy wolf tail.
"I am all for oogling the incredible h-hunk." She arched her back to a minty degree angle to allow a wild strike to sail over her head. "But can we deal with tall, mangy and Roland first!"
Jackie shook it off, as she nodded, "Right, let's finish this, and play with goliath later."
Stepping to her feet, she would saunter back towards Roland, in a almost cat walk like approach: each foot perfectly placed in front of the other. Goliath was caught dead by a glance at her rear, just as Roland finished throwing Alpha off, and pinned him under foot. Goliath saw the wolf mutants mouth move, forming words: but his eyes were yet again drawn to the ivory rear of Jackie Hyde.
"How about you try me." He could hear Jackie asking coyly, the tones in her voice daring Roland to react. "Come on, " she said with that purring almost car like voice, that was like a rolling growl on the edge of a soft roar: sending tingles down Goliaths spine just like the day he had first met her. Roland of course responded with his usual directness and spun around again to punch Jackie across the room.
With only the back of her fore arm she blocked the strike. Roland's powerful arm, the size of a tree branch came to a dead stop: its gigantic size dwarfing even Goliaths frighteningly massive muscles. Yet Jackie with her feminine but still muscular arm, held the blow from the sledge hammer like gusts back with barely any effort.
Goliath imagined the cocky smile on Jackie's lips, and felt his loincloth slowly tighten as she casually ran her free hands through her hair as if it was nothing.
"Oh is that all you have." Again her calm demise voice radiated a power with every beat of her tone. "Guess it's my turn?"
Roland roared as Alpha still was on his back, wanting to end this fight once and for all, even as Roland growled, "I'll break you, Bitch! AND TALBOT TOO!"
Suddenly, another blur came out from behind, and joined in pulling Peter's lines. "Sorry, Roland. But this time, we break you!"
Alpha and Jackie looked to see the new team member who had joined the party. He was a werewolf, much like Peter, though with no clothes or gear of his own. And he had the frame and height of a fourteen year old werewolf. He also lacked the musculature and physical build of other beta werewolf, appearing more toned and skinny than most of the other pack members although had the build of a strong athlete. He possessed a dizzying fur color of bright yellow on his hair, upper head, arms, back, tail and outer thighs, and orange fur on his around his snout, chest biceps, inner thins, shins and stomach. He possessed a slightly longer muzzle than most werewolves, although an averaged lengthened tail that stretched down to his mid thigh.
Peter blinked, as he assured the situation, "Charles?"
the werewolf turned to Peter and smirked, "Thanks for the bite, Peter. Now its time I paid you back... by taking down my former stepbrother."
"Huh, small bright and colourful." Commented Comette, as she placed her hands on her hips and smiled. "I like this kid."
Charles blinked, as they were still rodeoing on Roland's back, and blinked at both Comette and Jackie, as he blushed, "Whoa. Who are they?"
"Hydes," Peter replied, straining to look for the quickest way to end this fight.
"Hydes? Is that anything like Hulks from Marvel," Charles asked.
Peter nodded, "It would appear so."
Together Goliath, Jackie and Comette began to block the wild angry strikes of Roland's mutated fists, jumping free of his wild swings, as the new werewolf clung to his back, grabbing his former brothers oversized ear, pounding him in the side of his face: as Huntress and Ashley attacked him with ranged attacks. And slowly the rubber bullets, electrical strikes and sheer pounding Roland was receiving began to wear him down, as one knee hit the floor, and then the other. The mutants breathing became heavy, laboured, hard; one fist hit the floor as his head drooped forward as he began to pant.
For a moment no one was sure what to do, standing back and watching the mutant slowly sit on the edge of consciousness. Alpha sighed and stepped forward: yet his voice was not cocky, rather it was full of pity.
"I am sorry Roland... but you had to know there would be bad ending if you kept this up."
To everyone's not so surprise, Roland began to giggle, a sick rather demented giggle as his glowing yellow eyes flashed and his pointed teeth began to mash together to hard to draw blood.
"Ennndddiiinggg….?!
He said the words with a gleeful sadism as he tilted his head up to look up at his former victim, Peter, Alpha: they were all one in the same.
"Ending?"
He said the words more clearly now.
"You think this is some fairy tale! Like Hansel and Grettle! Or The Frog Princess?" He laughed again, and then out of nowhere lunged at Alpha digging his teeth into Alpha's arm, biting down and then with his teeth lifting Alpha up and thrashing him around like a dog would a doll. Comette was the first to rush in, but was hit by Roland's tail, one of its bony spikes embedding deep into her gut, puncturing her skin. Scar was next however as Roland seized him with his other arm, and threw him across the room into Queen, Huntress and Scope collapsing them in a heap.
"I'm Rolland Zelenski! And this ain't no children's boooookkkkkk!"
He growled those last few words as blood and Alpha were thrown about by his mouth, before letting go, and tossing him into Jackie, and leaving only Charles and Goliath standing.
"Oh Charles..."
Roland's deeper more animalistic tones did not hide the playful sadistic tones as he turned to face the orange and yellow wolf.
Charles began to back away slowly, as his mutated wolf hulk of a brother began to stride towards him: with every step shaking the ground.
"You could have worked with me, ya brat. You and me could have been great. But now..." again he let out a small giggle. "Your just gonna be another insect under my boot."
However with his back now up against the wall, Charles felt the cold hard metal of a supporting beam, and willing his claws to extend, he readied himself, as his brother now loomed above him.
"By bye, gówno twarz."
Brining is claws around, Charles sliced into the beam, parting it just enough for it to begin to creak and buckle. Taking advantage of Roland's shock at the missed attack, he then grabbed a hold of the now structurally unsound bar, and pulled it towards Roland.
Then the creaking as the bar and pats of the ceilings supports came crashing down on top of the mutant, as Charles leaped aside.
"Woo!"
Comette's cries of joys were met with only dead stares, as the rubble began to rise up and Roland burst free of the rubble.
"YOU'RE ALL GOING TO DIE!"
Then a sound like an explosion rocked the building and a whole was blown through the roof.
The blue-skinned and flaming redheaded Hyde looked around, as she snarled, crouched like an animal. She looked around the place with the hostility of a wild animal.
Alpha blinked as he looked to Jackie, asking, "Um... she with you?"
The White Hyde looked to him and asked, "Why would you think all Hydes are connected to me? I don't know her!"
"Jackie Hyde," the blue Hyde snarled, as she positioned herself towards Jackie.
Alpha pointed out, "She seems to know you."
"I'LL KILL YOU," she screamed out, as she charged at the White Hyde girl.
Jackie sighed, "Figures this would happen."
"Get in line!" Roland pulled the last of the fallen structure from his arm as he growled in the direction of Alpha. "Just remember he is -"
A right handed uppercut delivered by the blue fisted bombshell sent Roland off his feet and straight into the upper wall. The brute slid down it, landing on all fours growling at the woman who gave the beast a conceited glare.
"You know I have been waiting to do that since we met. Now hang back like a good Dog, I have a score to settle with Jackie over there."
"Elaine?"
Jackie's question hung in the air for a moment as the new Hyde flicked back her hair with a sly smile.
"You know I should thank you," she began to gloat. "This was a lit tile sooner then I planned, I wanted to work out all the bugs. But it's roughly what I -"
It was Elaine's turn to be cut off now: as Roland grabbed her by the back of the head and piledrived her supermodel like ace into the ground, so hard it split the concrete.
"I should have known it was you, Melbourne," Roland snarled as he tried to crush her head. "I'm gonna kill you now, and Gus won't be here to save your flat ass this time!"
Elaine, or rather, the Hyde that was Elaine, snarled, as she sneered, "Actually, Roland sweetie. You've got something wrong."
"Yeah, what's tha...?"
GROIN KICK!
Roland's eyes went wide as saucers as he fell over, cradling his throbbing and possibly damaged manhood, as Elaine spat, "The name is Helen Hyde..." She then stood up and cleaned her hair out, "... and consider that a free neutering."
"Umm should we get involved," Scope asked as she backed towards the door.
Comette blinked, "Let's let them tear each other apart."
The group watched as Roland seized the some of the collapsed roof, and swung the metal strut at the blue woman: only to leave a Helen shaped dent in it, when it hit her.
"Woah... she did not even flinch," mouthed Queen.
"Whoa, that is one seriously tough Hyde," Peter gulped.
Even Jackie seemed a bit freaked by this, "Yeah..."
Helen, on the other hand, slowly turned around, looking rather demonic, as the black points on her arms extended into bone-like arm-mounted blades. She was fuming at the monstrous pup, as she snarled, "Oh you're going to get it now, you wretched Pup!"
She began to slice forward with her side arms, cutting away at Roland who began to back up, dodging the first, the second, but not the third strike. A deep bloody gash was cut open along his arm, and the mutant wolf growled lunging forward and sinking his deep into Helen's flesh, who in turn picked him up and slam dunked him into the floor. With that impact the room began to shake and the wolves looked around as more of the roof began to fall.
"Maybe we should go," Peter commented, as he began to back away towards the wall.
"You think," Queen stated.
Jackie signaled, "Let's get out of he..." But was suddenly scooped up by Goliath, as they both bailed out of there. "Hey, what are you doing?" she asked, while blushing from this. "I can run you know!"
"Sorry, bit of a gentleman in me, is all," Goliath pointed.
Jackie's blush continued to burn, as she looked away, "Okay fine. It's not like I'm super bothered by it."
"Okay you two less flirting, more escaping." Scope cried as he headed for the fire exit, as the group followed.
By now Roland and Helen had untangled themselves and were now throwing punches at each other: their fists colliding with each other as they traded blow after blow. Yet with each collision the air would seem to vibrate, and send out gushes of wind. Roland saw their backs as they began to flee and as his eyes left Helen for that split second to yell "get back here -" the rest of his sentence was silenced, by one punch, which shockwave cracked the roof, a second punch when shook the remaining metal beams, a third punch which shook the roof again, a fourth which caused cracks along the walls and fifth one right in his eye as Helen yelled out,
"DON'T IGNORE ME!"
And she jumped in the air spinning before delivering a round house kick into his woof jaw shattering a row of pointed teeth with a kick which send out a shockwave which caused the roof to raise up and finally give way.
The next thing Helen knew was Roland hitting the floor, his face bleeding, his teeth shattered and his eyes rolling into the back of his head, and then the realisation the roof was falling. She had just enough time to see a collection of steel beams give way and fall on her and Roland, one hitting him in the head, burying his face into the concrete, and another hitting her hands as she raised them to protect her face.
Despite her strength she screamed.
Miles away Gus watched as the factory came down, he stared in shock as he had watched his boss and now his girlfriend become beasts, saw as they descended into madness. And now as he watched the factory burn, and the tell tale signs of police sirens rush towards the now literal ruin as the roof gave way, his hands began to shake.
He wiped the tears from his eyes, and turned to face the Truck where the Pump samples remained. He looked down at the green substance and his nose wrinkled. He picked up ad was on the edge of pouring into the dirt when his phone rang and hesetently he picked it up and lifted it to his ear.
"Umm Castle?"
It was one of his and Roland's men, he waited a second before answering.
"Yeah its me... you get out?" He had to stop himself choking as he set the Pump down.
"Yeah we got out with the emergency tanker, got at least a few thousand gallons of the green stuff you told us to pull out... Where is Roland, is he with you?"
Gus turned his eyes towards the factory and felt his brow lower. Roland, the man who had forced him into crime and now just tor down their first chance for the big time with his greed for ultimate power.
"No... he... fell behind." Gus sighed and stood up as he felt a new surge of confidence. "Okay listen up, fall back to the reserve base, and put that tanker into storage... we need to regroup got it."
"Sure boss... And what about that snake man and girl. You know the one you had hots for..."
Gus looked again back towards the now burning factory and sighed. "I think we are gonna have a difference of opinion mate. Now shut it and move out. Got it!"
"Umm yes... urrr boss?"
"No Castle..." He paused as he got back into the Truck and gave the factory one last look. "Mr Castle. Now do what I said and get your arse somewhere safe."
"Yes sir!"
Back with the Pack and Hydes
The echo of sirens could still be heard as the gathering of wolves and Hydes made their way across the rooftops and away from the now half collapsed factory. After what had to have been a quarter of a mile, the group stopped and turned back to look at the burning building, their minds racing over the events that had transpired that night.
Gothina and Scope, hugged each other in the background, Gothina nuzzling Scope's neck, the exhausted werewolves patting his girlfriend on the back of the head.
Jackie however had her hands on her hips and a scowl on her face.
"You okay?"
Alpha's question stirred Jackie, and with her yellow eyes she shot him a momentary glance before looking back at the burning ruins.
"You ever feel things are getting worse?"
Alpha sighed as he looked at the ruins. "Yeah... all the time."
Jackie sighed, s she confessed, "You know, despite all this cool power, killer figure, and confidence, there are also downsides aside from the more insatiable libido and the clothing malfunction." Alpha blushed at that first one, but listened as she went on, "There's also kind of the risk that you feel like you're becoming less and less who you are and more of... something else. You might not even like what it is."
Peter nodded, "Amazingly, I feel like that every day since i was turned."
She looked to him, almost in a cute pleading way, and asked, "How do you cope with that?"
Peter's snout moved in such a way to convey a emotion which Jackie wasn't familiar with. Fear; embarrassment? Peter turned his head to face his pack, Queen hugging Scar tightly, and Maria absently sitting on the edge of the roof, letting her pistol dangle over the edge. He seemed to trying to say something.
"Well what is it?"
'Well that was rude,' Jaqueline thought, causing Jackie to frown at her inner self.
'What can I say, I hate waiting...'
To Alpha/Peter's credit he just let out a sigh.
"To be honest I am not sure. I don't even think I have an answer, I mean... what sixteen year old has to deal with this." He gripped some of his fur around his snout and gently pulled it away as if to give a clearer image.
Jackie smirked. "What is the big bad hero, suddenly having self doubts?"
Peter managed the werewolf equivalent of a awkward smirk, h ears drooping as he shrugged.
'Weren't you doubting yourself a few seconds ago?'
'Shut up Jaqueline.'
"Look Jaqueline," Peter said stepping forward.
"Jackie."
"Yeah... both of you. If you need to talk about this... powers thing and double identity, just call us and we'll help." His eyes turned to look past her to the back of a orange werewolf, a few meters away on top of a water tower, who was still looking back towards the burning factory. Peter nodded to himself and turned to go to him. "Right now I need to see if Charles is okay."
Jaqueline just grunted non-committedly. "Sure feel free to call 'us' if you ever need help." But Alpha kept walking leaving Jaqueline on her own as Comette and Goliath walked up behind her.
"Sooo Jackie!" Comette wrapped her arms around her friend and pulled her in close and pressed her cheek against her. "Our first rival. Helen Hyde! Pretty cool huh."
"Actually, I feel like I wanna throw up if this is what I'm gonna be dealing with like headaches," Jackie groaned. But then looked at Peter and his group, and seeing them all together like that. But then she smiled at seeing at the sight before her, "Though I think I know how he can handle it pretty well with all this supernatural stuff."
"What's that," Commette asked
Jackie nodded her head to their direction, as she answered, "He's t got good friends who are like family "to him.
'Wow, Jackie,' Jaqueline spoke up. 'That was really deep of you there.'
'I guess I'm more like you than even we both realize.'
"A family huh?"
Jackie felt the rough hands of the male hyde seize her and spin her around.
"I am not sure about that... maybe partners?"
She looked up at the green skin hyde, as his white hair helped to obscure his eyes.
Jackie couldn't help but blush at this, as she stuttered, "Um... maybe, I guess... I don't know... you look hunky.."
"Shall we just stop beating about the bush and get what we really want?"
Goliath seized her by the shoulders and lowered his mouth to hers, their lips dancing around one another as he teased her with these rush of emotions.
Though Jaqueline screamed, 'JACKIE! YOU BARELY KNOW THIS GREEN BEHEMOTH!'
THWACK-PUNCH!
In an instant, Goliath was down for the count. His face embedded on the ledge wall of the building they stood atop. All the while Jackie was blushing mad, even drooling from the kiss. Though this was a bit new to teh girl, as she screamed in frustratoin, "What the hell...?! I barely know you! And suddenly you wanna go animal planet on me!?"
Comette blinked, "Wow. This is a first. She totally decked a guy that wanted to make out with her."
Gothina and Scope slid over, as the purple werewolf asked, "She does this with all the guys?"
Comette shrugged, "Nah, when she started changing, I was the first she shacked up with."
Scope drooled and blushed in a daze, as his tail wagged, "Whoa mama..."
Gothina sweatdropped though, as she pulled his muzzle over to her direction, "Cool it, Loverboy."
Meanwhile
"You there! Put those fires out! You idiots clear the rubble! You stop standing there gawking and form a perimeter! Come on people move your arses and hustle!"
After thirty years on the force Officer Rojas did not miss a beat. Being the Chief of Police left very little time for soft words or polite manners: it was a post for action, although even he admitted this action came sooner then expected. He had been woken in the early hours of the morning, or was it evening, at some point past twelve, to hear that his stake out of the local gangs had suddenly gone hot when gunshots had been heard and suddenly the old factory they had commandeered had started to fall apart.
Still as he inspected a set of claw marks in the stone, an inch thick his brow thoroughed.
"Not so much fallen apart after all…"
His mind ratcheted back to reports and felt his stomach do a twist.
"Dam Wolves," he muttered as one his men approached him. "Lieutenant Corvis, there you are, what's the report?!"
The brow haired officer stood to attention, although his eyes drifted over to the claws in the stone, causing them to widen slightly, before turning back to his superior officer.
"Well sir, Sergeant Bo has found something and well..."
"Well what?"
Eddie simply gestured him to follow, "I think you better see this for yourself." And both wandered to a spot where a couple of officers were using construction bungees as rope to pull something out of the rubble. Though what it was as it was being dragged out... was anyone's guess.
Rojas had a moment to wonder what was under there before Eddie Corvis was cut off by someone shouting his name.
"Mr. Rojas, could I..."
Rojas felt a tight knit of anger well up inside him as he heard what had to be a no named recruit slipping manners again. 'Time to put him in his place.'
Rounding on the individual he spat at them with all the annoyance they deserved. "It's Mr. Rojas," he growled only to be met by an unexpected trio of individuals in smart business suits. "Oh Mr. Norwest..." he looked past him to the unusually thin man to his leg, "Mr Hopkins..." then to the large wall of a man on his right. "Mr. Stagg... ummm how is your son."
A comment which earned him a annoyed grunt. "In the courts officer."
"Well, what exactly can I do for you two," Rojas asked, hoping to change the subject that was uttered seconds ago.
"Well, we heard there was another gang commotion, and we wanted..."
"Wanted To see if there was anything we could do to help our brave officers. After all first hand knowledge is the best knowledge for our RnD to help you."
Mr. Norwest shot the tall Thin Hopkins an awkward glare as the man finished cutting him off: then shrugged as it was not unexpected for him. He continued on as if nothing had happened.
"Also try and understand, we need to see to know how to help the community."
Behind him Marcus dower expression stiffened, out of sight: Stagg rolling his eyes and crossing his arms as a more clear expression of exasperation.
"Well suffice to say," Rojas began, "not that I ain't great full, but ya need to wait back behind the yellow line like everyone ..."
"We got him sir!"
The voice caught everyone's attention as it was punctuated by a series of cranes hauling something out of the rubble, and Rojas froze. It was a giant clawed hand.
And as the rest of him was being pulled out, it belonged to a larger and more ferocious owner, as it mumbled, "Find... the wolves..."
"Holy fuckin shit!" Stagg cried, recoiling somewhat, his hand going to a 44 magnum at his hip. "Is that thing real."
"Oh very real," Mr. Norwest said excitedly. "It must be one of the werewolves which helped save my life.
The response from his two compatriots was swift. Hopkins shot his friend a quick frown while Stagg just glowered at him in turn: it had been werewolves who had caught his son after all.
Rojas however didn't waste time, as he placed himself between the beast and Stagg, and pointed to his men and began to yell orders. "You three get some chains on him, you bring around the heavy loading vehicle, and you four keep your guns trained on him at all times!"
Mr. Norwest became wide eyed as he stepped forward only for the police chief to stick out his arm with a hard glare.
"Mr. Rojas this could very well be the man who helped save my..."
"And if he is, he is also vigilante and thus a criminal. I respect your desire to help or thank him, but sir I would respectfully ask you to respect protocol and do so after he has been processed."
Mr. Norwest opened his mouth to respond, looking a little offended that he could not go forward only for Hopkins to butt in with a sharp rather morbid comment.
"Well in all honesty he looks like he is on his last leg... best to put the dog down."
Rojas and Norwest's head turned in unison to face the tall thin man, who was absently scratching his long rather crooked nose.
"What he is a criminal, and also isn't human. I do not see a issue here, its a overly smart dog man thing."
"I agree with Marcus," Stagg growled, his fingers now resting on his magnum, his eyes burrowing into the unconscious face of the beast some twenty meters away from it.
However, the creature moaned out, almost obsessed, "The Wolfpack... must find... and kill... the wolfpack..."
Eddie simply took a toothpick to his mouth, and mumbled loud enough for them to hear, "I'm guessing he's not one of the wolves that saved you, Mr. Norwest."
"Well even more reason to put it down. It's talking about killing."
"Mr. Hopkins it is also talking." Rojas explained his voice growing more gruff by the second.
"So?"
Rojas sighed and clicked his fingers and pointed to the men. "Use the industrial chain to bind him, we will hold him for questioning."
"You cannot be serious!"
Everyone now looked at Hopkins who made quick to follow up his statement nt. "I mean look at the claw marks. Your cells cannot withstand that!"
Mr. Norwest cleared his throat as he explained, "Actually, Bio-Tech has been working on a new jail system to keep uh... individuals like these in check and incarcerated. It was put into effect when we have the former Professor Provarious incarcerated, and went into further research when he escaped the Eco-Corp Cryogentics department."
Raising an eyebrow the chief of police scratched his long handlebar moustache and sighed. "It'll hold him while we wait for him to come to his senses?"
"It should, yes officer Rojas."
"Fine then... but only until we can find out who or what he is and nab his friends. They are criminals, saving people or not."
At this both Mr. Norwest and Marcus Hopkins frowned, Marcus seemed to be on the edge talking back when a nearby series of screams were punctuated by a small explosion. Debris went flying and firemen and police began to run from the scene.
Rojas just let out a low growl and pointed to the three businessmen. "Stay there, I'll sort this out."
At that moment, a few officers were thrown overhead among everyone. they either crashed into others or onto a vehicle, falling limp, as the figure jumped from their spot and onto a car. Wearing a makeshift tattered bikini style, Helen Hyde looked back at get cops and businessmen, and sneered. then, she finally jumped away, leaving everyone shocked at the sight, as she had catapulted her jump far from them, and out of sight.
"What the heck was that!"
Mr. Stagg's question hung in the air, as the rest of the onlookers stared on in shock. Save for one man: Marcus Hopkins, who simply glared at where the blue woman had been: his hand gripped around the silver ring on his finger.
"I think we're gonna need a tougher police force," Mr. Norwest replied.
