Oh NewtonLangly, I've had practice with the descriptions. That, and
it pays to read the fiction at the ATA…
Chapter 4 – Instincts…
Kyle wasn't in the room, and his window was open…
"Oh dear!"
Lisa went back downstairs to try and catch him before he went too far. Meanwhile, Kyle got up from behind his bed. He was lucky it was positioned so you had to come to the other side of it to see him.
'That was close… I still need my Walkman.'
Kyle took the device out of his desk, and was about to clip it to his belt, when the belt tore apart without touch.
"SLAG IT!"
Then he realized he said that out loud, and was about to go out the window for real, when he heard his mother call up to him.
"Are you still up there?"
Kyle figured it might work better if he answered.
"Yeah…"
"Well, could you stay? They're here…"
Kyle was right. If he had gone out the window, they would see him, and that wasn't what he wanted. He struggled to get his Walkman to clip to his pants, when he noticed that all of his muscles had grown larger, which meant there wasn't enough room in his pants for the clip.
'Huh? I didn't feel that. Oh… It must have happened outside the school. Why didn't I notice?'
Kyle heard someone on the steps, and he quickly closed and locked his door. Then they knocked on his door. It was Terry.
"Kyle? You in there?"
Kyle thought of jumping out the window again, but then he felt like talking to someone. He'd rather talk to Terry then his mom, because Terry had a slight clue.
"You could say that…"
"Why'd you ditch school?"
"Let's just say it's why I'm keeping the door locked…"
"Uh-oh."
"Yeah… AUGH!!!!"
Kyle's head felt like someone just buried an ax into his brain. He also felt like a professional boxer gave him a low blow.
"KYLE!!!!"
Terry tried to open the door. It wouldn't open. By now, most of the guests had come to help break the door down. Kyle ran to the window, and jumped clear to the next roof. He kept going. When Terry finally got the door down, he was gone…
"Ouch… Where am I?"
Kyle shook his head a couple times to get blood to his head. He realized he was standing on top of a company building, and that he couldn't remember anything since the pain hit him.
"How did I get here? Well, at least I have some humanity left…"
Kyle then remembered the painfully sensation from his lower body. He looked down, and noticed something didn't seem right. He looked into his shorts [The lower part of the legs tore, making them shorts], he gasped, and returned to looking at his surroundings.
"Okay… So I don't have THAT piece of humanity… What's happening to me? This is WAY to far…"
Kyle stopped. He was certain he heard something. Then he turned, and was facing an airshaft that just turned on.
"Geez. I'm getting jumpy."
Kyle then realized he had his Walkman with him. He must have held onto it.
"Let's see… Nah, I'm not in the mood."
Kyle put the device down, and decided to see if other changes occurred. He moved around a bit to try and find something he could use as a mirror, but he found nothing. Then he decided to look down again. That's when he noticed his shoes had a large hole in the front due to his feet changing form. He now had only three short toes that had talons at the end of each one.
"So much for another piece of…"
Kyle stopped. He could smell someone coming. The person was inside the building. Kyle heard footsteps on some stairs, so he hid. A man in a red and black outfit that swirled the colors walked out of the stairs on the roof, with a bag in his right hand, and an eyeball shaped sphere in his left. Kyle didn't know he was Spellbinder. Spellbinder chuckled to himself.
"That was easy. They never suspected an invisible intruder. Better hurry, or Batman will get me."
Spellbinder ran towards the fire escape. Kyle then felt an extreme urge to pounce on him. He couldn't resist the sudden urge, and leapt onto him, with Spellbinder facing the ground.
"You again… GET OFF ME BATMAN!!!!!"
That's when Spellbinder saw the clawed hand next to his head. He turned pale in the outfit, and managed to look at what he felt would be his killer. It was apparent it was someone who was spliced, but Spellbinder could easily tell that something was different. For one, he seemed to have no control of himself. Two, he couldn't tell if it even was a 'he'.
"AUGH!!!!"
Spellbinder quickly managed to kick free, and he ran a little ways away before he used the eyeball to make himself invisible again. Kyle simply looked toward his left, and spotted him trying to flee. Kyle pounced again, shattering the orb, and tearing into Spellbinder. Kyle had torn up Spellbinder, and was about to kill him, when he snapped out of it. Fortunately, Spellbinder was unconscious, and would live if he got medical attention. Kyle felt sick. He wanted to kill this man. He ran off, and began leaping from rooftop to rooftop. Shortly after Kyle left, Batman arrived at the scene.
"Wayne. You were right, it was Spellbinder."
"Is he still there?
"Ugh. Yeah… All over here."
Bruce was somewhat repulsed by what the camera relayed. Parts of Spellbinder's outfit were all over the roof. Blood was thrown all over as well. The eyeball Spellbinder used to make his illusions was shattered, and crunched under Batman's feet. Spellbinder himself was clinging to life, and had lots of claw marks. Part of his mask was torn away, and there was even strands of his hair among the blood. Batman immediately signaled the paramedics. When they arrived, they asked questions.
"What did you do to him?"
"I found him like this. I'd be covered in blood if I did do this. I'm not, so I didn't do it."
Spellbinder woke up as the paramedics were putting him on a stretcher. He began screaming.
"IT COULD SEE ME!!!!! IT COULD SEE ME!!!!!!!!"
"What are you talking about?"
"I USED MY ILLUSION, BUT IT SAW ME!!!!!!!!!!!"
Batman wanted to ask what 'it' was, but Spellbinder was in shock, and kept repeating the same thing. As the paramedics left, Batman checked for clues. Then he saw the Walkman. He picked it up. He pushed the play button, and the first song was very familiar… Then it got to the refrain…
"…And they say that a hero~ will save us~! I'm not going to stand here and wait~!"
Batman turned it off.
"Oh no…. Kyle!"
That had to hurt… both Terry and Spellbinder. Spellbinder in particular…
