Wolf In Human's Clothes
Chapter 2: Adapting
By: Sano-kun
Disclaimer: I don't own Vandread at all okay folks. I lay claim to Fenir and the rest of the OC's.
To say that Bart was lost would have been the understatement of the epoch. Fenir continued to gorge himself while the other just stared at him. Bart let the same thought loop in his mind of Fenir's resonse saying he was both a dog and a man. The navigator allowed himself to breath a bit before talking to Fenir once more.
"Hey Fenir what did you mean by you're both?" Bart asked.
"Uh, it's like I said, I'm a man and a dog...well a wolf to be more accurate." Said Fenir simply over a moments thought before he snatched a roll from the plate of a woman whom just sighed and let the boy eat it.
"That isn't possible."
"Well that was what everyone thought until I was born."
"Fenir that's crazy, that goes beyong everything in genetics."
"Well guess I'm a oddity then huh?"
"Probably, anyways I need to get to the bridge now."
"The bridge, can I come?"
"Yeah, you're proabaly going to end up talking with the Captain later anyways so why not now." Bart said as he walked out of the mess hall with Fenir trailing behind him.
Back on the bridge the captain was being flooded with complaints from many of the crew members about Fenir. The older woman chuckled as she patiently listened to her subordinates mouth off about Fenir and his eating habits and lack of manners. While the complaints kept coming in, Hibiki had strolled his into the command area where he stopped right in front of Magno.
"Hey grandma have ya seen tha new guy yet?" Asked Hibiki.
"No, but from what I gather he should be in the mess hall." Said Magno.
"I'll just talk to him later."
"Paiway says that Fenir has no shame. Ribbit." Paiway said while her puppet popped up from behind Hibiki's left arm.
"What are you talking about?"
"When I was going to give him his clothes he stood naked in front of me like there wasn't anything wrong."
"So did you enjoy looking?" Smirked BC at the discomfort coming from Paiway.
"No!" Shouted Paiway as her cheeks turned pink at the memory.
"Hey gang." Said Bart as he walked in.
"About time you showed up, get ready to continue our course." Ordered BC.
"Aye,aye." Sighed Bart as he dropped down in the Navigation chamber.
"Hey were did Bart go?" Asked Fenir as he walked onto the bridge.
"Ahh you're here again!" Shouted Paiway.
"Hi Paiway, why did you run off like that earlier...you seemed to be bothered by something." Fenir said as he tilted his head to the side.
"Ugh I'm leaving." The nurse muttered while walking out with a light blush.
"Weird. Oh hey I'm Fenir." Said the youth as he turned and faced Magno.
"You easily switch moods." Grinned Magno as Fenir grinned broadly.
"Hey you smell really old but you don't look it." Fenir said as he narrowed his eyes at Magno curiously.
"Smell?"
"Yeah, I can smell that you're really old." Answered Fenir as he tapped his nose.
"Fenir you're turning out to be one interesting person. Would you care to follow me please?"
"Yeah but can we get some food first I'm a bit hungry still." Said Fenir as Bart nearly fell over inside the navigation chamber after overhearing what Fenir said.
As Magno and Fenir left the bridge, Duero was back in the med lab trying to determine the unknown DNA stain he found by trying to match it with every known gene code for anything within the different kingdoms. Thinking that it would be hopeless he leaned back in his chair when Parfet walked up behind him. Duero turned around sensing somebody behind him and gave a small smile to the engineer as she sat down across from his while holding her laptop and a message capsule while Pyoro floated behind her.
"Ahh Parfet what is it that you need?" Asked Duero.
"I found this in the pod after I dismatled it a bit. I figured that it must deal with Fenir since it was unlocked when I said his name." Said the engineer.
"Go ahead and play it." Said Duero as Parfet loaded the message pod into a slot on her laptop and attached some wire to Pyoro. After Parfet finished making the nessasary connections, she activated the power on her laptop as the filer began to play. Showing the face of a aged woman with wild gray hair and a white lab coat.
"Ah good it's recording. My name is Guinevere Doyle. I'm a scientist from the planet Skul and the mother of the young man you've just found inside the cryo pod. If you're playing this message then undoubtedly I'll be dead. I'm sure by now that Fenir knows about my death somehow. Please take care of him in my stead, even though he looks like and have the intelligence of a bright young adult, he's naieve and easily confused like a puppy...." Said Professor Doyle calmly with a small smile.
"Is he mentally handi-capped?"
"I assure you that Fenir is not brain damaged in anyway but it has to do with his genetic code. Fenir was my first and only child and one that was choosen to be the subject of allowing two different genetic strains to be bonded together...."
"So that's the reason why I found the different DNA strain." Said Duero.
"But what could the other one be if it's not human?" Said Parfet.
"..we chose to graft the DNA of a wolf into my child. The operation was a success but he began to age rapidly so in a unauthorised procedure I and another scientist were able to manipulate the DNA but we got some unexpected results. Fenir's age had became the exact opposite of a canine's meaning he would age every seven years human time and his immunse system and healing abilities were off the charts. Also his senses were greatly heightened as well as his speed and strength. Every so often under momenets of extreme distress Fenir can revert to a semi-feral state where he'll grow claws on his hands and feet, and his beastial-nature will start to become dominate in his descisions. In addition he can become a fully grown dire wolf...."
"This is truly intresting, a society had managed to bind two different DNA strands together and then remanipulate them into something more." Duero nodded.
"...but the process had another side affect. Fenir became highly allergic to any form of silver and a plant found on Skul called Moon Tear or Wolf's Bane, much like the werewolves of legend. The reason why I or others from Skul are not around anymore is located in a data file located on the tag located on Fenir's collar. Thank you for taking the time to watch this and may God watch over you all." Finished Professor Doyle as the video file ended.
"We need to go to the captain and let her know about Fenir and to get the tag from him also, because if what I'm thinking is true then he could have information on our enemy that we don't even have yet."
Meanwhile back with Fenir and Magno, the pair were tanding on the observation deck of the ship. Magno stood with the support of her cane while Fenir sat on his haunches and looked up at the older woman.
"Where did you come from originally?" Asked Magno.
"It's a planet called Skul. It had alot of forests and rivers and stuff like that, it was a nice place to live."
"It sounds like a beautiful place to live. Fenir I heard some intersting news about you from Duero about you having two different DNA types in you, would you care to tell me anything about it?"
"Uhhh...I'm a cross-breed...yeah that's it. I'm part human and part wolf."
"Why would anyone do that to you?"
"My Momma said it was for a experiment to see if it could work but then the army wanted to use me to fight and my Momma she...she died when these aliens attacked our planet while saving me."
"Aliens?"
"Yeah...I remember some of them looking like big red crabs with yellow eyes and others were made out of little cube shaped robots."
"Harvesters."
"What?"
"The things that destroyted your planet are what we call Harvesters. They travel through space and destroy planets all the while taking a select set of organs from those that they kill."
"That's wrong, why would anyone do that?"
"I wish I knew child, I wish I knew."
"Hey cheer up, we'll get the Harvesters one day so more planets won't have to be destroyed like that."
"Fenir you're a amusing and cheerful person."
"Captain...good Fenir is here with you also. Listen we viewed a message which was hidden within the cryo-pod from Fenir's mother. I learned what that he was part of an experiment where they merged the DNA of a wolf to him which was further manipulated to give him superhuman abilities."
"I already know about Fenir being part wolf Duero so it's no big deal."
"But Captain, his mother said he has information on the Harvesters."
"Really, where is this data file Fenir?"
"I don't know."
"It should be in this tag right here." Said Parfet as she reached down to Fenir to take a tag before she was bitten.
"FENIR!" Shouted Duero in a mixed tone of shock and anger as the wolf-boy allowed a threatning growl to escape his throat as he clamped down harder on Parfet's arm drawing blood.
"Fenir let her go now!" Ordered Magno as the boy reluctantly let go of Parfet.
"What are you thinking?!" Shouted Duero.
"She tried to take my tags, I was told not to let anyone touch my tags." Growled Fenir back as he croched down on all fours and looked at him.
"Fenir we watched a message from your mother asking us to watch over you and that you have information that can help all of us in your tags.Honestly we're not going to harm you." Parfet winced as she gave the boy a small smile.
"I'm sorry." Fenir apologized, while hearing the sincerity in Parfet's voice, as a sad look crossed his features while walking over to Parfet and licking the wound he inflicted as Duero's eyes flashed with a hint of jealousy.
"Uhh...i-i-it's alright." Stammered Parfet as she tried to stifle a giggle from Fenir licking her arm.
"If you don't mind now Fenir I'm going to take your tags." Said Magno as she removed both of the tags on Fenir's collar.
"I'll examine these tags to see if the have the data." Said Parfet as she took the tags from Magno.
"Not until I treat that wound of yours, you might have contracted an infection." Said Duero harshly as he glared at Fenir.
"Alright Duero, well I'll see you later Captain and Fenir."
"Magno are they mates?" Asked Fenir as he watched the pair leave.
"Mates?" Responded Magno.
"Yeah cause it felt like Duero wanted to kill when I bit Parfet."
"I assure you Pup that they aren't mates...not yet at least." Said Magno as she patted the young man on his head and walked out of the observation deck leaving the youth alone.
Over the next couple of weeks the crew were becoming used to the mannerisms of the wolf-boy more or less. On one occasion Fenir was scolded of his eating habits by some of the women, mostly Celtic, and was placed through some 'schooling' for him to learn manners and the purpose of silverware. At the sound of the word silver, Fenir went balistic with fear and ran away from everyone and hid until he was found by Dita and Hibiki cowering underneath a bush in the Observation Deck. From that point on, the word silver was forbidden to be used within Fenir's presence and they gave the boy heavy duty plastic utensils to eat with. Also the women tried to teach him about the reason why he couldn't bathe with them after he had strolled into the baths one day and started to wash off while various other women sat and blushed, glared at his audacity, or passed out with a nosebleed in the cases of Meia, Parfet, and Celtic at the sight of the cheerful boy in the buff. Fenir didn't quite comprehend what they were talking about until BC pulled him over andexplain some differences about men and women. At the moment, the crew of the Nirvana were all gearing up for Christmas. Magno was dressed up in a Santa suit and was grining and laughing while standing on a podium as some of the crew surrounded her. Duero was inside of the medical wing painting, BC was the only one on the bridge continuing her duties. Elsewhere at the observation deck, Parfet was working on a machine while Paiway was taking pictures of Fenir whom chasing Pyoro when Dita, Hibiki, Bart, and Barnette walked in.
"Hey Parfet!" Smiled Dita as she ran towards her friend.
"Hey Dita but I can't talk long since I can't get this dang snow maker to work." Said Parfet as Fenir walked over to the group growing tired of chasing the Navy robot.
"That's a shame, anyways I'll see you later, I still have to get Mr. Alien's present wrapped."
"Hey Hibiki don't forget to get Dita something." Smirked Bart cheesily.
"What?!" Exclaimed the Vangaurd pilot as the entrance opened.
"Meh...Hibiki not so loud." Complained Fenir as he sat on his haunches and sniffed the air as his nose was bombarded with the sent of jasmine, "...Jura!" Exclaimed Fenir happily as he turned around and jumped onto of the woman, knocking her down, while placing his hands on her breasts to prop himself up.
"Fenir..you stupid little pervert!" Growled Jura in embarassment and anger as she slapped the boy.
"I-I-I'm s-sorry." Fenir whimpered as his eyes became wide and glossy as tears started to fall from them.
"I didn't...oh come here and stop crying." Sighed Jura as she hugged the boy and patted his head.
"Why that dirty hag!" Fumed Paiway.
"Hey Jura are you taking a liking to Fenir now?" Said Barnette with a hint of anger in her voice.
"You just can't stay mad at him, especially when he gives you those big moon eyes." Said Jura as she clutched Fenir closer to her.
"GACKT!" Flailed Parfet as she was covered in soot from a minor explosion.
"Whoa are you alright Parfet?" Asked Bart.
"Yeah, yeah but I just can't get this to work."
"Hmm..." Said Fenir as he broke free of Jura and walked towards the machine Parfet was working on and began dissconnect and reconnect wires and cables .
"Fenir what are you....doing?" Muttered Parfet as the machine activated with a low humming rythm as it began to spew out snow.
"Fixed it!" The wolf-boy beamed.
"You've got to be kidding me." Gaped Hibiki.
"For somebody who acts so simple to be able to fix something that you couldn't and under ten seconds it's quite a slap in the face, ribbit." Said Paiway as she held he puppet up in front of her face.
"I really can't believe that he could fix it that fast." Mummered Parfet.
"Well he does seem to be bright, but he's still dumb."
"You guys are mean." Said a teary-eyed Fenir.
"Well Jura aren't you going to console Fenir?" Chided Paiway as if she was daring Jura to.
"I know that I should take care of him, after all who's better than me?" Jura bragged as everyone but Fenir looked as if she lost her mind.
"The Captain." Answered Paiway, Parfet, Hibiki, Barnette, and Bart while Jura just glared at them pointedly.
"Well since Fenir has fixed the machine I'm ready to go eat, how about you guys?" Said Parfet.
"Food?" Grinned Fenir as he started to drool.
"Calm down Fenir-honey other people need to eat." Said Jura.
"But I'm hungry."
"Hey Jura why don't you just breast feed him with those fat breasts of yours?" Teased Barnette.
"That wasn't funny Barnette." Glared Jura.
Hours later everyone minus BC were celebrating in fullswing as the countdown to Christmas began. Hibiki had managed to be cornered by Dita and the young girl gave the boy a pillow she had sewn and Hibiki gave her a mini plush doll of himself which Duero made. Silently Hibki thanked the doctor whom was at the moment conversing with Parfet and gave the engineer a painting which she took graciously. Magno was tossin preasents too and fro for the gathered crew around her and Bart was once again being used as a target of jokes while he played a game of poker with Gascogne and Barnette in the registry. Fenir was back at the observation deck when he heard somebody's foot steps approach him in the soft snow. The boy didn't even have to turn around as he was once again bombarded with the sent of jasmine.
"Hey it's sure is a nice here with all the snow?" Smiled Jura as she hugged Fenir from behind.
"Yeah, I really like it alot...it reminds me of the mountains back home." Said Fenir.
"You know you're supposed to give something to somebody for Christmas right, well this is for you." Smiled Jura she opened a small black box to show a silver colored chain
"S-S-S-silver?" Fenir stammered as his eyes widened with fear.
"It's platnium see. Looks like silver but it isn't." Laughed Jura as she attached the chain to the clasp on his collar.
"Thank you Jura but I don't have anything for you." Apologized Fenir.
"I can think of something that could make up for it."
"What is it?" Asked Fenir as Jura wrapped her arms around Fenir's shoulders and was promptly kicked away by an irrate Paiway.
"Watch out there you old hag!" Fumed Paiway.
"What was that for and who do you think you're calling old hag?!"
"Shut up! Fenir this is for you, I've been working on this since I though that you may be cold sometimes." Blushed Paiway as she gave Fenir a high collar black cloak which was lined with red around the bottom and on the back was a off-white crescent moon.
"Wow, thanks you Paiway, this is cool!" Smiled Fenir happily as he put the cloak on and fastened the top button.
"You hear that, he said my gift was better." Said Paiway snidely as she gave Jura a sideways glance.
"No he didn't he just said it was cool." Snorted Jura.
"At least MINE was complimented!"
"Be quite you little spore."
"Air-headed blonde bimbo!"
"Puppet using baby!"
"Ug...oh...." Pai blushed as Fenir grabbed her by her shoulders and ran his tounge slide across Paiway's lips before he placed a soft kiss on them.
"Wha..." Jura mummered as the wolf-boy did the exact same thing to her.
"I liked both gifts alot and since I don't have a real present to give back to you I decided to show you that I appreciate you both. Well, I'm gonna go and eat some more and go to sleep, night Jura and Paiway." Smiled Fenir broadly as he croached down on all fours and ran out of the observation deck.
"...That...was my first kiss..." Paiway whispered as she touched her lips.
"Oh the things I'd want him to do with his tounge." Giggled Jura.
"Like he'll ever do anything with you." Snapped Paiway and the girls glared daggers at eachother.
"That's it you're dead!"
"Bring it on blondie!" Exclaimed the nurse as she speared the Dread pilot.
========================
OMAKE-Got Milk Ad: Vandread Style
"Food?" Grinned Fenir as he started to drool.
"Calm down Fenir-honey other people need to eat." Said Jura.
"But I'm hungry."
"Hey Jura why don't you just breast feed him with those fat breasts of yours?" Teased Barnette.
"Well what a wonderful idea. Fenir-honey come have a little suckle on these!" Exclaimed Jura as she ripped off the top half of her dress casuing Hibiki and Bart to pass out with nosebleeds.
"Yay!" Cheered Fenir as he started to feed like a baby while Jura held his head to her breasts firmly.
"Got milk?" Said a echoing disembodied voice of a old man.
"You better believe it." Giggled Jura.
"Jura you slut!" Screamed Paiway and Barnette.

"Mates?" Responded Magno.

"Hey Parfet!" Smiled Dita as she ran towards her friend.
"Hey Dita but I can't talk long since I can't get this dang snow maker to work." Said Parfet as Fenir walked over to the group growing tired of chasing the Navy robot.
"That's a shame, anyways I'll see you later, I still have to get Mr. Alien's present wrapped."
"Hey Hibiki don't forget to get Dita something." Smirked Bart cheesily.
"What?!" Exclaimed the Vangaurd pilot as the entrance opened.
"Meh...Hibiki not so loud." Complained Fenir as he sat on his haunches and sniffed the air as his nose was bombarded with the sent of jasmine, "...Jura!" Exclaimed Fenir happily as he turned around and jumped onto of the woman, knocking her down, while placing his hands on her breasts to prop himself up.
"Fenir..you stupid little pervert!" Growled Jura in embarassment and anger as she slapped the boy.
"I-I-I'm s-sorry." Fenir whimpered as his eyes became wide and glossy as tears started to fall from them.
"I didn't...oh come here and stop crying." Sighed Jura as she hugged the boy and patted his head.
"Why that dirty hag!" Fumed Paiway.
"Hey Jura are you taking a liking to Fenir now?" Said Barnette with a hint of anger in her voice.
"You just can't stay mad at him, especially when he gives you those big moon eyes." Said Jura as she clutched Fenir closer to her.
"GACKT!" Flailed Parfet as she was covered in soot from a minor explosion.
"Whoa are you alright Parfet?" Asked Bart.
"Yeah, yeah but I just can't get this to work."
"Hmm..." Said Fenir as he broke free of Jura and walked towards the machine Parfet was working on and began dissconnect and reconnect wires and cables .
"Fenir what are you....doing?" Muttered Parfet as the machine activated with a low humming rythm as it began to spew out snow.
"Fixed it!" The wolf-boy beamed.
"You've got to be kidding me." Gaped Hibiki.
"For somebody who acts so simple to be able to fix something that you couldn't and under ten seconds it's quite a slap in the face, ribbit." Said Paiway as she held he puppet up in front of her face.
"I really can't believe that he could fix it that fast." Mummered Parfet.
"Well he does seem to be bright, but he's still dumb."
"You guys are mean." Said a teary-eyed Fenir.
"Well Jura aren't you going to console Fenir?" Chided Paiway as if she was daring Jura to.
"I know that I should take care of him, after all who's better than me?" Jura bragged as everyone but Fenir looked as if she lost her mind.
"The Captain." Answered Paiway, Parfet, Hibiki, Barnette, and Bart while Jura just glared at them pointedly.
"Well since Fenir has fixed the machine I'm ready to go eat, how about you guys?" Said Parfet.
"Food?" Grinned Fenir as he started to drool.
"Calm down Fenir-honey other people need to eat." Said Jura.
"But I'm hungry."
"Hey Jura why don't you just breast feed him with those fat breasts of yours?" Teased Barnette.
"That wasn't funny Barnette." Glared Jura.
Hours later everyone minus BC were celebrating in fullswing as the countdown to Christmas began. Hibiki had managed to be cornered by Dita and the young girl gave the boy a pillow she had sewn and Hibiki gave her a mini plush doll of himself which Duero made. Silently Hibki thanked the doctor whom was at the moment conversing with Parfet and gave the engineer a painting which she took graciously. Magno was tossin preasents too and fro for the gathered crew around her and Bart was once again being used as a target of jokes while he played a game of poker with Gascogne and Barnette in the registry. Fenir was back at the observation deck when he heard somebody's foot steps approach him in the soft snow. The boy didn't even have to turn around as he was once again bombarded with the sent of jasmine.
"Hey it's sure is a nice here with all the snow?" Smiled Jura as she hugged Fenir from behind.
"Yeah, I really like it alot...it reminds me of the mountains back home." Said Fenir.
"You know you're supposed to give something to somebody for Christmas right, well this is for you." Smiled Jura she opened a small black box to show a silver colored chain
"S-S-S-silver?" Fenir stammered as his eyes widened with fear.
"It's platnium see. Looks like silver but it isn't." Laughed Jura as she attached the chain to the clasp on his collar.
"Thank you Jura but I don't have anything for you." Apologized Fenir.
"I can think of something that could make up for it."
"What is it?" Asked Fenir as Jura wrapped her arms around Fenir's shoulders and was promptly kicked away by an irrate Paiway.
"Watch out there you old hag!" Fumed Paiway.
"What was that for and who do you think you're calling old hag?!"
"Shut up! Fenir this is for you, I've been working on this since I though that you may be cold sometimes." Blushed Paiway as she gave Fenir a high collar black cloak which was lined with red around the bottom and on the back was a off-white crescent moon.
"Wow, thanks you Paiway, this is cool!" Smiled Fenir happily as he put the cloak on and fastened the top button.
"You hear that, he said my gift was better." Said Paiway snidely as she gave Jura a sideways glance.
"No he didn't he just said it was cool." Snorted Jura.
"At least MINE was complimented!"
"Be quite you little spore."
"Air-headed blonde bimbo!"
"Puppet using baby!"
"Ug...oh...." Pai blushed as Fenir grabbed her by her shoulders and ran his tounge slide across Paiway's lips before he placed a soft kiss on them.
"Wha..." Jura mummered as the wolf-boy did the exact same thing to her.
"I liked both gifts alot and since I don't have a real present to give back to you I decided to show you that I appreciate you both. Well, I'm gonna go and eat some more and go to sleep, night Jura and Paiway." Smiled Fenir broadly as he croached down on all fours and ran out of the observation deck.
"...That...was my first kiss..." Paiway whispered as she touched her lips.
"Oh the things I'd want him to do with his tounge." Giggled Jura.
"Like he'll ever do anything with you." Snapped Paiway and the girls glared daggers at eachother.
"That's it you're dead!"
"Bring it on blondie!" Exclaimed the nurse as she speared the Dread pilot.

OMAKE-Got Milk Ad: Vandread Style
"Food?" Grinned Fenir as he started to drool.
"Calm down Fenir-honey other people need to eat." Said Jura.
"But I'm hungry."
"Hey Jura why don't you just breast feed him with those fat breasts of yours?" Teased Barnette.
"Well what a wonderful idea. Fenir-honey come have a little suckle on these!" Exclaimed Jura as she ripped off the top half of her dress casuing Hibiki and Bart to pass out with nosebleeds.
"Yay!" Cheered Fenir as he started to feed like a baby while Jura held his head to her breasts firmly.
"Got milk?" Said a echoing disembodied voice of a old man.
"You better believe it." Giggled Jura.
"Jura you slut!" Screamed Paiway and Barnette.
