A domesticated girl that's all you ask of me,
Darling, it is no joke, this is lycanthropy.
Moon's awake now, with eyes wide open
My body is craving, so feed the hungry
I've been devoting myself to you
Monday to Monday
And Friday to Friday
Not getting enough retribution or decent incentives to keep me at it
Starting to feel just a little abused
Like a coffee machine in an office (aaa)
So I'm gonna go somewhere closer
To get me a lover and tell you about it
There's a she wolf in the closet,
Open up and set it free
There's a she wolf in the closet,
Let it out so it can breathe
Shakira- She Wolf
Tori's POV:
I took a whiff of the fresh air. I could smell the scent of spaghetti tacos wafting from Festus's truck. I smiled, knowing what was in store for me during lunch.
Right now I was sitting in Sikowitz's class. At the moment he was sipping the milk out of a coconut and telling a story I wasn't really paying attention to. Instead I was much more aware of all the noise going on around me. I could hear noises coming from the hallways, bleeding through the closed doors of the classroom. The sounds of slamming lockers, whispered words of affection, and the excited giggles of both male and female students alike reached my ears. I couldn't make out all of the words, but I could hear many things clearly. Was my hearing somehow improving? There is no possible way I should be able to hear all of this.
"Drive-by acting exercize!" Sikowitz cried, dragging me out of my thoughts. "You're all stereotypical Jewish mothers, go!"
"Oh that's just delightful darling." Andre drawled. "Did you know Adam got a ushanka for his bar mitzvah?"
"Ya know, you're brother was a lawyer." Beck piped up. "You could be one too, honey."
"Oh sweetheart, why are you with that useless boy?" I said. "I wanted you to marry a nice Jewish man so you could give me at least five Jewish grandchildren!"
The room was filled with myself and the other students chattering in the particular accents and the bell rang after a few minutes. I swiftly scooped up my bag, and dashed out the door to the entrance leading outside.
"Jesus Tori, slow down!" I heard Andre yell behind me. I came to an abrupt halt and whipped my head around. My friend jogged up to meet me at the door.
"Christ, when did you get so fast?" Andre chuckled. "Have you been running track?"
"No." I replied. "I don't know what's going on honestly. I just got a lot faster. And hungrier." I rubbed my tummy. "I eat like twice as much as I usually do."
"Well let's get going girl, I think Festus has got spaghetti tacos ready today."
Unfortunately for Andre, he had to run after me when I dashed for the truck. Luckily, I was one of the first ones there and saved him a spot in line. I refrained from running when we walked to our usual table though, just to give Andre a breather.
"Hi guys." Beck greeted us as Andre and I sat down.
"Hey Beck." I greeted him back. "How's it going?"
"I'm great." Cat chimed in. "My brother isn't though. They put him in that strange white jacket again."
"That's... nice." I said hesitantly, taking a large bite of my taco.
"I'm meeting some Northridge girls tonight." Rex bragged.
"What do you see in those girls, Rex?" Robbie asked the dummy. "They're completely unlikeable."
"Oh like the redhead over there you like?"
"What's that supposed to mean?!" Cat screamed.
"You know what it means." Rex told her.
"Control your puppet before I toss it in a wood chipper." Jade growled at Robbie."
"Hey, don't call him a puppet!" Robbie snapped.
"Everyone stop!" Andre intervened. "This is stupid."
"That's what I mean, Cat, stupid!" Rex said to the red head.
"You're so mean!" Cat cried.
Before I could stop myself, I threw my taco down onto the table and yelled, "Oh my God, shut up! I am not in the mood for all of you to bicker over stupid trivial crap!" I felt a sort-of growl rise from the back of my throat at the end of my sentence, but I swallowed it down.
The table was silent for a few seconds until Cat giggled. "Tori, your eyes look funny."
"What do you mean?" I questioned her, confused.
"Your eyes, are uh, yellow." Beck told me.
I stood up from the table. "Excuse me." I mumbled, grabbing my bag and bolting away.
"What's crawled up her ass and died?" I heard Jade ask in a snarky manner as a I scrambled away.
I made my way inside the school and ran into the girl's bathroom. I breathed a sigh in relief upon seeing it was empty.
I glanced in one of the mirrors and did a double take. My normally dark brown eyes were yellow, and I thought I could see my canines getting sharper.
I blinked, and suddenly my eyes and teeth were back to normal. I stared at my reflection for what felt like a few minutes before my phone vibrated, causing me to jump in surprise.
I yanked my phone out of my pocket, and saw I had a text from my sister, Trina.
Hey could u meet me at my car after school? I need to talk to u about something important
I sighed and sent a quick reply back, agreeing to meet her later. Right now, I needed to get back to my friends.
After school, I walked to the parking lot, and found Trina standing by her car, looking nervous.
"Hey Trina." I said to her. "What's up?"
"Mom wants me to drive you home." My sister told me. I could practically feel the tension oozing out of her body.
"Okaaaaay." I said slowly. I hopped into the passenger seat of the car, and Trina went to the driver's seat.
"What did you want to talk about?" I asked, buckling my seat belt.
"It's a long story." Trina scratched the back of her head.
"Well what is it?"
"I'm sorry, Tori."
"Sorry for wh-"
I was cut off as Trina pulled out a needle from her boot and plunged it into my neck. In seconds, I could feel my body shut down and the world went dark.
Trina's POV:
I sped home as quickly as I could, making sure to avoid getting pulled over. I had to get home fast, the serum might not last very long.
When I arrived home, I tossed Tori's body over my shoulder, and just about flew inside. Mom and Dad were sitting on the couch, and they jumped to their feet when I came barrelling in.
"Is she unconscious?" Dad asked.
"Yeah." I told him. "I feel bad for doing it."
"It's okay, honey, it's for her own good." Mom soothed me as Dad took Tori from me and began to carry her outside. "When she wakes up, we'll explain everything to her."
We followed Dad into our backyard towards the thick forest that stood beyond. Our forest.
We sprinted through the tall trees, dodging branches and raised roots before we got to our little shack hidden within our forest. I hadn't been here in over two years, but just looking at it gave me a feeling of warmth.
I breathed heavily as we stepped inside. Soon it would be Tori's time to shine.
Tori's POV:
"Tori... Tori, can you hear me?"
I opened my eyes. For a split second, everything was fuzzy, then my eyes sharpened, and I found myself laying on the floor of a metal cell.
"Tori, baby, are you alright?" Mom asked me. Her, Dad, and Trina were sitting in front of me.
"Where am I?" I asked.
"You're in our special cabin, sweetie." Dad told me.
"Cabin? What cabin?" I asked. I stood up and was suddenly aware of something around my wrists and ankles. I looked down. All four of my limbs were shackled in heavy iron chains.
"Why am I chained up?" I squeaked, becoming panicked.
"Tori... there's something you have to know." Trina said.
"What?"
"You're a werewolf. We all are."
I blinked in disbelief. "You're kidding right?"
"No, we're not." Dad told me. "Your mother and I are both alpha werewolves, and so is your sister."
"But werewolves aren't real!" I exclaimed, looking around. "You guys are trying to pull one over on me. Where's the hidden camera? Are these even real?" I started to yank on the chains.
"This isn't a joke." Mom asserted. "Tonight is your first transformation. We could detect it was based on your scent. You smell like an unchanged alpha werewolf. Only other werewolves can smell that."
"No! You're lying! This isn't happening!" I shrieked.
"Tori, remember when Mom and Dad sent you to stay with our aunt Dina for a few days when you were ten?" Trina asked.
"Yeah, why?" I questioned.
"Because I got my first transformation that night. I was twelve and that's considered young to get your first transformation. But yours is tonight."
"But I don't understand." I whimpered. "Why is this happening to me?"
They all looked behind them. I saw them look behind them at the metal door. A bright light was peaking up from the bottom of the little square window on the door.
"We should go." Dad announced. "The full moon will be rising soon."
"But I still have questions!" I protested.
"They'll be answered soon baby." Mom cooed. "I promise." Her, Dad, and Trina got up and walked over to the door. Dad exited first with Mom trailing behind him. Trina was last, and before she left the room she whispered, "Good luck, Tori."
The metal door slammed shut, leaving me alone. Before anything else happened, the bright light had fully seeped in through the window.
It was moonlight. The full moon had risen.
Suddenly, there was a sharp pain in my stomach. It felt like someone had stabbed me with a knife. I cried out in pain as my bones began reshape, and my organs twisted, becoming larger. My heart raced, my blood boiling white-hot, making me hiss in pain.
"AHHHHH!" I screamed as my leg bones stretched upwards and my shoulders popped out. My ears stretched upwards and my teeth sharpened. My mouth and nose were jerked forward to form a snout, and my nails elongated into sharp points. My clothes tore and ripped from my body, and I was soon covered in deep brown, thick hair. I grew upwards to a staggering height- maybe eight or nine feet- and my feet grew longer and grew longer toenails. I growled in pain as I felt something rip through the skin just above my butt, and realized it was a long tail that reached my ankles.
I stood upright and could sense my consciousness began to fade. Tori Vega was fading away.
And in her place, a beast would take over.
OLD AUTHOR'S NOTE:
So it's my first try at a Victorious story, and I hope that I kept everyone in character. If not, let me know what I should change in order to make them not OOC.
Also pairing-wise, Jori is going to be the main pairing, but I'm not sure about others. What would you guys like to see? I was probably going to add Cabbie or Bat or Brina or even Puckettine, but I'm unsure. If you have a suggestion for a pairing, any at all, I'd appreciate it.
Thank you all for reading, and ideas and suggestions for the story are accepted, and I'll give you credit for the idea. Thanks again!
