Disclaimer: This is short but very important. I haven't decided a name so far for my Mutant but I will one fine day.

Oh and sorry for the drinking and driving thing. But hey, it would look a little strange if Jesse would just grab a yellow cab back to Sanctuary, wouldn't it? Still, don't drink and drive!!!!

Chapter3: Betrayal

The Puerto-Rican girl was ready to go. She was all dressed up for a hot night at the club, ready to roll. Her boyfriend watched her with suspicion. It was the fifth time in the last three weeks that she was going out. Of course, it was "only with some of her girlfriends". Yeah, right!

It burnt him. A friend had told him about her and this other guy she'd met. She'd betrayed him and even lied straight to his face. But he needed proof and he would get it tonight.

"Mucho broma, carina! I'll see you later!" He said it, kissing her goodbye as she left.

Moving over to the darkened window, he stood and watched how she stepped out of the house. He waited until she started the car then followed…

Later that night, he followed her into the club. She flirted with the bartender and he paid for her drink. Like always, she never had to pay for anything.

A blond guy approached her. He looked good, his smile broad with grey-blue eyes. They talked and laughed and flirted even more. He knew, he was right. This must be her lover, the one she'd betrayed him with. He still needed to hear what they were saying.

Somehow he managed to get the bartender into the dark hallway by faking an illness and asking for help. He enjoyed the panic and fear in the guy's eyes when he changed to suddenly look like the bartender himself. A sadistic smile spread over the Mutant's features before the shape-shifter punched his left fist right into his 'own' face. Unconscious, the man fell down and was quickly dragged away.

He took his place behind the bar, giving out drinks, moving as close at he could to his girlfriend and her 'lover'. He saw the blond guy dancing with his girl, saw him touching her and when the shape shifter saw him kiss HIS girl, the bottle of beer he held in his hands shattered into a thousand pieces.

He would have killed him right here and now, if they hadn't been in public. So he would have to wait until he could get them alone. Later…

They left together very late that night. He followed them as soon as they moved out the door. He didn't notice the frightened looks on some of the young women's faces because of him changing back into his own body, while he walked angrily out the club.

A silver Audi drove quickly away in a cloud of dust. It must have been the blond guys car, the Mutant thought. All right, he would get him sooner or later. Now, that he knew what the man looked like. He would find him…

He noticed somebody walking slowly and a little unsteadily down the street. The long, black hair swayed in the rhythm of the steps, falling all the way down her back.

The evil grin returned on the shape-shifters face when he recognized his girlfriend. He would give her a warm welcome when she came home…
