Chapter 5: Doctors Discovery

Ren and Horo sat patiently in the doctor's waiting room. Ren just sat there, looking straight ahead at the door which read 'Dr. Myron' whilst a nervous Horo fidgeted every five seconds. A woman sat at the desk gave them permission to go through, and both boys entered the room, only to see a man sitting at a desk much like the one the woman had.

"What is the problem?" asked Dr. Myron

Ren glanced at Horo's bleeding arm that he had been clutching the whole time.

"Let me rephrase that," said the doctor, seeing Ren's expression, "How did this happen?"

"I was attacked by something in the forest."

"Could you identify it?"

"No."

Dr. Myron sat Horo down and started to remove the soaked bandage. As the wound became visible, he instantly dropped the bandage.

"What?" asked both boys in union, "Nothing." He replied, "If you'd just wait here I'll be back in one moment."

As the doctor left the room, Ren followed, ordering Horo to stay put. Ren closed the door behind him, still, Horo could easily tell they were having a conversation about him, why else would Ren leave the room and close the door behind him? Horo strained his ears to listen but found it no use. As Ren entered the room again, Horo confronted him.

"What was all that about?"

"Your injuries are not too server." He replied.

"Oh."

Horo's eyes widened as he saw the size of the needle in the doctors hand. Ren had to hold Horo's hand as Dr. Myron took a blood sample.

"Now, this will sting pretty badly." He said as he put some solution onto some cotton wool. As the doctor placed the cotton wool on Horo's wound, he jumped back as Horo snarled viciously.

"Uh, sorry!" apologized Horo quickly.

The doctor cautiously applied it to the wound once more and as he did so, Ren, who was holding Horo still, could feel him vibrating and could hear a low growl. He could tell Horo was trying hard to compress it.

Horo stormed out of the doctors holding his stinging arm. It had to be re-bandaged and kept clean at all times to stop infections. Horo waited impatiently for Ren across the road from the doctors.

"Come and see me in three hours time." Instructed the Dr. Myron to Ren. Ren nodded and exited the small building, finding Horo waiting for him across the road. With that, they both left the village and walked back to camp.

Three hours later Ren left Horo at camp and found himself outside the doctors' door. He knocked and entered when he got a reply. He found the doctor looking at Horo's blood through a microscope and told Ren to take a look. As looked at the blood of his companion, he quickly stepped back.

"Fascinating isn't it." Said the doctor; a sad smirk on his face. "Horo's blood isn't quite normal."

The doctor took out a blood sample of a different person at random, and mixed it with Horo's. Ren watched as Horo's blood devoured the other blood cells.

A.N: Dunno how to describe that very well

"…Why is Horo's is blood abnormal?" asked Ren, slight panic in his tone.

"Horo's DNA is something similar to that of a wolf's, only far more advanced..."

Unicorn13564: DUN DUN DUUUUN! Wow, smart doctor, no? Anyway please review! I need reviews people! REVIEWS!

IMPORTANT: The updating might slow down a bit as I've only plotted up to chapter 9 and if I don't plot something I get all mixed up and stuff, so I'm gonna have to update a few days longer than usual if I have to. Although I might forget and update anyway, but oh well. So don't worry if I don't update for… not a while but a few days longer if ya know what I mean, as it will only mean that I am plotting the rest of the story, also, I don't say it in the story but the calf doesn't die. Lol. Anyway, important message over- I'll leave you all to review now. Lol. Bye!
