Oh-my… I'm so sorry :( I haven't updated in forever because 1) I was sick and missed a lot of school 2) I had tests to make up and 3) I have writers block… Ugh!
Renlover13: Why thank you ;)
Raisa ana' Marianna: I'm glad that could help you out!
ShelbyRide: Good question. Max will be able to shift back and forth from human and wolf, but there are some complications…
crazyabouttylee: A filler chapter isn't an action-packed or suspense-filled chapter. They are chapters where everything is almost calm and quiet. Things are explained and they are sometimes
Dragonfire Alchemist: I should know :)
On with the chapter my dear readers!
Chapter Six: My Name's Max
-Creature P.o.v.-
It was time for me to tell them everything using my new power… I don't think I mentioned it yet. I can open up a mind link were my thoughts are transferred, but theirs aren't. It's really hard to explain to regular people.
"Alrighty… Now you should tell us everything. Starting with your name," Fang said, taking a seat and motioning everyone else to sit in the assorted chairs and bean-bag chairs.
I gave him a harsh glare before lying out on the carpet and spreading the mind link.
(Bold- Max speaking, Italics- Angel chipping in)
I don't believe you would trust me or even believe me if I told you my name. I-I don't know why but I want to keep it that way for a little longer, I send out, watching as their mouths open in shock. I let out a throaty bark that immediately has them collecting themselves.
I never wanted to use this power until I knew you could be trusted… Now I know more about some of you.
"Can you tell us what you know? How did you end up this way? Who are you really?" Angel asked, sitting up more on the couch. She and Gazzy exchanged glances before settling back on me.
I was experimented on by the scientists. They said something about wanting to make something so strong that nothing could ever kill it. I was supposedly going to be the Ultimate Experiment to them. They… They strapped me down to a table and injected me with some sort of serum.
"Whoa, whoa, whoa... So you were human before this?" Ratchet interrupted. I nodded and continued on, trying not to whine or whimper from the memories.
It hurt to breathe as the serum took over. It made my organs shift, my body elongate, and my whole ego to change. I became a savage, a beast lusting for blood… I was a monster.
"That can't be true! You are so kind and sweet," Kate objected, rising from her seat but Star put her hand out and shoved her back down.
"How about we let her finish before we all freak out, okay?" Star exclaimed, her eyes meeting every mutant in the room. Everyone nodded and settled down a bit for me to continue.
I looked like I do now, a large wolf. The wings didn't grow until the scientists thought it would be fun to give me wings 'again' in hopes that it would make me stronger, but it made everything worse. Then they thought it would be a great exercise to make me shift back and forth from wolf to human… The transformation is really tiring…
"So you're telling us that you had wings as a human and you can shift back into your human form right now if you wanted?" Iggy asked. I didn't want this ordeal to go way too far.
Yes…
"Then why don't you change back to a human right now!? Show us who you are," Angel exclaimed, throwing her hands up.
Tell us who you are. We aren't going to kill you on the spot.
You aren't going to believe me if I tell you my name! I know one of you knew the first second you saw me…
"We will try," Iggy offered. I growled, getting to my feet (more like paws).
Do you really want to know my name? I asked, knowing the answer immediately. Gazzy and Nudge yelled 'yes' while the others nodded or shouted out random answers.
My name is Max, short for Maximum…
If the world could end at any second, it would be now. Fang didn't say anything, but he shook his head madly and ran his fingers through his hair aggressively. Star, Kate, Ratchet, and Holden looked completely bewildered. Nudge and Gazzy didn't say a word. Iggy looked shocked beyond his body and Angel looked ready to burst into tears. I knew this wouldn't end well! I knew it.
"Wait," somebody piped up, "your eyes and your smell. You-" It was Total…
I knew you wouldn't believe me. The white coats told me something like this would happen!
"If you're Max, than you should know about us right?" Total asked, getting in my face again. I shook my head sadly. I should know them.
I don't remember anyone in my past. I just know that you guys must know me. You must know me well enough to flip out over my name. My memories must have been erased back at the school…
"I knew it was you, Max. The moment I saw your eyes," Fang sighed, looking at me.
I'm sorry I don't remember you guys, but I do know a lot has changed… I have changed, yes? I asked, thinking to myself, 'What should I do. Should I change… No… Maybe…'
Do what you think is right.
You should stay out of my mind, Angel. I growled, scaring everyone with the fierceness of my words.
"Can you change? Will you let us see you as we know you?" Iggy asked. Fang almost looked better now. He looked to me pleadingly.
It's not like you can see me, Iggy.
He laughed before declaring, "The others want to see you. We all need to figure out if you are alrig-"
I am alright! You don't need to worry about me! I growled, glaring at Iggy. For one measly second I forgot he was blind.
"Please, Max," Gazzy whined, "We really want you to change. For us?" He had the look of a lost boy without his mother. But deep down… My thoughts keep whispering, 'You are his mother. To him you are his leader, mother, and sister.
I looked at everyone, summing up everything before making my decision. I would change back… For them only.
Alright…
