Chapter
12
Tobias
"You
do not remember me," said the old man as we stood in the library
stacks. Not a statement, but not a question. "Did
we meet before?" I asked. Dad always says to pretend like you
remember people, because you don't want to be rude, but somehow I
didn't think this guy would care.
"Oh,
yes. Many times. I gave you gifts. I took gifts away. You often hated
me."
"Gifts?
Like what?"
"The
power to morph. Rachel."
I
remembered the old man coming to me, giving me my old human DNA back
in the form of a creature acquired. I remembered surprising Rachel at
an assembly with my human body.
I
remembered hating the old man for taking Rachel away from me.
"I remember." Just as quickly as those thoughts hit me, they got fuzzy and confusing. "Sort of. What are you here for?" "I am here for your help."

Hope you enjoyed this itsy-bitsy little boring chapter! I just mostly wanted to get my feet back in the water of writing this!
