Chapter Two - The Transformation
Steve groaned as he slowly opened his eyes, although it was fairly dim where he was. His head still hurt, his whole body ached as he tried to move. The man needed to stop being tasered. It was becoming a bad habit. The SEAL didn't need to look at his wrist to know he was chained to the wall, the cold metal told him enough.
Looking around, the dark-haired man could only guess he was in one of the cells in the basement with the bricked walls and heavy metal door on the other side of the room, which was probably locked. There was a small barred window above him; too high for him to reach and in the corner, he could make out the red blinking light of a surveillance camera.
Movement in the corner of the cell caught Steve's eye, he couldn't quite make it out but from the silhouette, it was bigger than him.
Before Steve could do anything the figure moved into the light and the man held his breath as sad piercing blues eyes looked straight at him.
"Danny." Steve breathed as a wave of mixed emotions filled his body, relief and confusion being the most prominent.
The blonde wolf growled in response as it lifted its huge paw to lick off the silver blood.
"Danny, what the hell is going on? I know you can understand me so don't ignore me, where have you been? We've all been worried about you, we've been looking for you for months." Danny could feel his heart breaking as he listened to Steve pleading for answers but the blonde couldn't face it, this was probably the last time Steve would talk to him.
The sound of the door unlocking distracted the two inside, causing Danny to give off a low growl. The growl turned into a yelp as an electric rod forced Danny to the ground in pain.
"Hey!" Called out Steve as he struggled against the chain.
"Shut it you ors you'll be next." Warned the bodyguard as he walked into the room, pointing the rod at Steve "come on you freak of nature, you know the rules, you have to enter the arena as a human." Spat the guard towards Danny, who growled in response.
"Oh what's that? Don't want to change in front of your boyfriend? Shall I shock him instead?" Threatened the man as he moved closer to the SEAL.
Danny was quicker, however, standing on his hind legs between the two men, his head almost touching the ceiling.
"That's what I thought." Smirked the guard "now fucking change ors I'll put both of you in the ring."
Danny didn't need to be told again, he couldn't risk Steve fighting. There was no way the blonde could protect them both, especially if there was another alpha. Steve couldn't believe his eyes as he sat there watching Danny change, it was like his skin was liquid, moving across his body, replacing the fur as his tail disappeared into his back and he was typical human Danny size.
"Good." Grumbled the guard "now put these clothes on and let's go."
'What no snarky remark?' Thought Steve, as Danny got dressed 'Danny has been here far too long.'
"Wait!" Steve called out as the two men made their way to the door. "I want to watch, let me go as well." The SEAL didn't want Danny to leave; he didn't want to risk losing him.
"Boss says you have to stay here, now shut up before I make you shut up." Warned the guard as he handcuffed Danny.
"Steve do what he says, I'll be back don't worry." Pleaded Danny, the sound causing Steve to sit back, his voice sounded so defeated.
The dark haired man gave a slight nod as the two men left the room, his head filling with ideas on how to escape with Danny as the door closed on him.
