The wolf came to his senses slowly, there was a bright light hanging over
him as he could sense that he was lying on his back.
Bizarre that it may, but whenever the wolf lay on his back he could feel
that all his legs were in the air, but could it be that the wolf was so
twisted out of shape, his legs would be limp?
The wolf opened his eyes more the bright light that was over him was not of
the sun's rays but, of magic that of the Emortal bird's?
He jolted upwards with fright, and then saw something that would frighten
any animal.
The wolf could see that he had human arms, body, legs, and he figured his
head looked like a human's head too, except for one part of his body, his
left hand, which now resembled something that of his old body, a paw, but
had a human finger covered in fur, for the index claw.
The wolf, or human screamed at his loudest.
Other humans came rushing through the door a few seconds later, including
Corinne, Trunks, and Paige with two new humans rushed in.
One was older than all of the rest, with straight grayish blue hair, and
small wrinkles on the face of this woman, she looked concerned as she
entered the room, with her fashionable lavender turtle-neck sweater
wrinkling up as she rushed in, the same was happening to her navy blue
skirt. Scuffing along the floor in the same boots as Trunks.
The other human was a younger man with black hair, spiked up like a
porcupine's quills but thicker, two spiked bangs covered the boy's forehead
a bit and he had a scar over his right eye.
He was wearing a bright purple shirt that had some of the same characters
of lines on the sleeve of Trunks' jacket. The boy also had on some dark
blue denim pants, and white shoes.
"Are you ok young man?" the old woman asked the wolf.
The wolf couldn't speak human so he kept his mouth shut.
"Well would you like something to drink then?" The woman asked the wolf.
The wolf could only look up at the woman; despite the fact that he was
human he couldn't speak the language of humans, could he still talk to
animals?
"It's all right," Corinne said putting her hand on the wolf's shoulder,
"we're here to help you."
Again the wolf sat there he felt hopelessness as he saw everyone around
him, some with happy faces while some with angered pained faces about to
fight each other.
"I'll be leaving," Paige spoke in a cold tone.
"Paige wait!" The boy shouted as Paige walked out of the room, soon he
followed in hot pursuit.
The wolf stared at the doorway that the two humans just exited.
"Don't mind Paige," Trunks said, then bringing his volume of voice to a
whisper then said, "she has a tendency of being an."
"Trunks!" The woman said angrily at Trunks for what he said, "be nice,
you've known Paige for a long time, and I don't want you two fighting each
other, or saying anything rude about each other when I'm around, got that?"
"Yes mom," Trunks said in a moan, while rolling his eyes.
"We'll leave you to your thoughts young man," the woman said to the wolf
that had a stymied look on his face, "oh, one more thing, if you're ready
to talk to us, try coming down the stairs to the main living room, and not
screaming, you gave some of us a fright earlier."
Slowly, everyone left the room the wolf was in, the last person to leave
was Corinne, who turned smiled and waved to the wolf.
Sheepishly the wolf imitated the waving gesture with his right hand back to
Corinne.
After Corinne vanished from the wolf's sight, the wolf studied the room he
was in. The room was a large enclosed space with a table beside the bed the
wolf was in, a dresser with a frame thing on top of it a bit further away,
there was oil, and water paintings on the walls, and some pictures what
looked like what the cats described as photos; life like pictures of the
recent past. There was at least one window in the room, letting in the
dying sunlight and brightening street lamplight.
Finally the wolf decided to get up, try to get used to the human legs he
now has and walk around. Slowly he got out of the cushiony bed he laid in,
the ground was cold to his human fleshy feet, he finally now knew what
human feet looked like but the sensation of the ice cold ground was
unbearable to the touch for a while, but then he got used to the one spot.
Supporting himself by using the bed the wolf pushed up, from his supports,
he tilted without purpose forward and backward, then suddenly fell to the
ground.
Nobody came to him, he was a bit grateful for that since he wanted to be
alone now.
Getting up onto his human feet, the wolf, used the bed for support, to
slowly walk across the room, and it was hard. He had crawled across the
room in a way to get to the dresser for some more support.
When he pulled himself up to support his body on two legs and feet on the
dresser he saw something that alarmed him.
There was a human in the frame thing of the dresser, the human looked like
a mixture of Trunks and Paige, with Trunks' mushroom shaped hair cut but
with brown hair and his hair was a bit messier than Trunks' hair. He had
the high cheekbones that Paige had too, but the clothes the other human was
wearing was a duplicate of the wolf's new wardrobe, the trench coat that
looked like Paige's mixed with Trunks' jacket. A long coat with a double
collar, but with lower pockets. Under that he had on a plain white baggy t-
shirt, the wolf could only see a little bit of the grey pants the human in
the frame wore.
When the wolf moved, the other human moved at the same time in the same
direction, so the wolf decided to bare his fangs, stupid move there, the
wolf thought. The human did exactly what the wolf did and the exact time
too.
"Hey," a girl's voice said.
The wolf surprised by the voice, jumped with shock. He turned to the
direction, it was only Corinne, and the wolf let out a sigh of relief that
it wasn't the evil that plagued him last night or something like that.
"I see you're having fun making faces at your reflection in the mirror,"
Corinne said with a smile.
A reflection, like that of water's, this was a solid piece of a strange
material, but yet it showed the reflection of the wolf himself so this is
what he looked like as a human, the mix of Trunks and Paige, except he
didn't look too tough like either of the two, and then he turned back to
Corinne.
"Yea-," the wolf spoke then covered his mouth the sound cut off.
So I can speak human talk it's just the same as animal talk, but animal
talk is only understood by animals, the wolf thought.
"Anything wrong?" Corinne asked the smile fading to a look of concern.
"No, not really," the wolf said gaining confidence trying to talk, "I
haven't talked too much lately."
Corinne's cheerful grin replaced the concern after the wolf spoke.
"Do you want to come down stairs now?" Corinne asked.
"What are stairs?" the wolf asked inquisitively.
Corinne's face took another change, but to an appearance of a puzzled look
if you were insane or beyond crazy.
"Come I'll guide you down to the main living room, is that ok?" Corinne
asked with the same look on her face.
"Uh, oh okay," the wolf spoke slowly, "but I'm not sure I can walk too
well, Corinne."
A jumbled shock came to Corinne, "but how do you know my name, who are
you?"
The wolf pushed off his support still a bit wobbly he had got the hang of
standing on two legs, but that was until he started walking, after he had
lifted his right leg he started to sway to fall over again, but this time
he was falling forward, his arms were too out of balance to stop him from
about from breaking his head, he closed his eyes.
He stopped falling.
The wolf opened his eyes, he was facing the floor, his hair was hanging
down toward the floor, and he could see the faded denim pants that Corinne
wore, at the tilted angle he was at.
He corrected his angle very gradually until he was sitting down on the cold
hard ground, and Corinne helped him little by little.
"Are you all right?" Corinne asked.
"I'm okay Corinne," the wolf said taking in huge amounts of air.
"Here let's go down stairs, I can see why we found you out in the bushes,
comatose, you probably escaped some harebrained lunatic."
"You could say something like that," The wolf said.
Corinne helped the wolf lift his body to his feet then helped him down the
hall, passing many doors, some that were open to see and some that were
shut so no body could see anything, and some that were shut that had
labels, the wolf strangely now could read these words, like laboratory, and
water closet.
Corinne showed the wolf what were stairs; pieces of floor gradually
reaching the elevated ground or floor, Corinne helped him down the stairs
as well, reached the ground and continued walking until they reached a
colossal room with chairs and couches to sit or lay on, Trunks and the old
woman were here sitting adjacent from each other, but looking in the same
direction, the direction of Corinne and the wolf.
