Chapter 20
The Wolfman charged at me, once he was close enough to me that I could smell his nasty burnt tire smell I dodged to the right just before he grabbed a hold of me. I ran in that direction making sure that I made taunting gestures to make sure that the beast's attention was always on me.
As the Wolfman was glaring at me the way that it glares at everyone I began shifting my form into that of a beast of my own even though by doing so I usually lose my senses and attack the ones who are close to me. This time though I was hoping that since it was the Wolfman I was hoping that he would continue to beat me with in my senses allowing me to beat him.
Once my body was completely concealed by the maroon, blood-like marking, that is when my bones began snapping and Reshaping forming the new form that I would be taking. I was aware that my mind was not as it should be and I began getting a large blood lust. My eyes were the last thing that changed and they turned into a demonic red iris and what was once white was now the deepest of black.
I let loose a loud pain filled howl and charged at the other beast of the night and began clawing at him. I heard a familiar voice that I couldn't place a name to yell from a distance. "Mia what happened to you!" I stopped and turned to the source of the noise, in this case a small golden haired boy wearing blue and white clothes.
Standing next to the small boy was another boy; this one had bark almost black hair and wore a shocked expression on his face just like the little boy. The two of them looked so familiar yet I couldn't place names to the faces before me.
As I was lost in the thought of trying to find names for the faces the beast before me attacked and rammed full force into my still pain filled body. I rolled back a few times but finally dug my claws into the ground to stop myself from going any further from the fight, only to find it already leaving and running towards the boys.
My battered body got up off the ground as I let loose a threatening howl and once again raced for the beast. As I was running I brought out the claws and raked them across the flesh of the beast and making it even more mad then it was before. It turned on me about to lash out when it suddenly stopped and turned, that is when I saw the dark haired boy holding a dented metal pole looking even more frightened them before.
I didn't know why but I felt like he was important to me and so I lashed out at the beast again to get its attention back to me and the fight that I brought to it. It turned and brushed me aside like I was simply a pillow of feathers. I landed hard on my head and forgot everything that I was holding in my memory at that one blow in the back of my head.
I shot up even more blood lust in my system wanting to kill anything that posed a threat, I looked around and saw a beast attacking to boys and one of which had a pole and was defending the other as the other ran for a small shed nearby. The pole sparked a memory that was in the back of my head, and it also spurred a pain in the back of my head I began charging for the one holding pole.
Once I got within range I brought my arm back and swatted at him causing him to fly though the air then landing painfully on the ground, then a brought my attention back to the beast, lashing out and clawing at it, with a few kicks through in.
Suddenly as I was about to land another kick the beast I was attacking swatted its arm at me and connected with my knee snapping it as the beast hit it then grabbed a hold of me, throwing me away once again. This time as I lifted my head I looked and Saw the blond boy come back and try to defend his friend with the pole that his friend dropped.
I didn't have the strength to get up so at that point I just blacked out, but I was able to hear everything going on still. Some of which was the boy's yelling out to one another, at one point I heard something probably the beast eating something hard that had lots of meat. Finally I heard a thud and then crying and yelling.
*Time Skip*
The pain all over was made worse with every bump or rock that the crevice we hit, I knew that we were moving but was unsure of when or why let along what time we began to move the Cirque. All that I did know was what I remember of the Wolfman's Escape and Attack, which wasn't much in my case.
I fidgeted in my sleep wincing at the motion and the pain that it brought with it, giving up on sleep I Tried my best to sit up but wasn't able to get up. I looked down at the sling my arm was in and the cloth wrapped tightly around my leg. I tried to sit up again not wanting to lay down anymore and this time with lots of pain I finally managed to sit up and take in the back of the caravan the Darren, Evra and I were riding in.
I was a little further away from the two boys and began trying to get their attention by softly throwing small objects at the two Most of which were crumpled up flyers for the show that I still had in my bag.
Finally the two looked at me and by the look on Darren's face I could tell that he had been crying again, but he wouldn't tell me why he kept on crying for the past few days after we left Sam's town. I patted the ground next to me gesturing for them to sit next to me. Evra walked over but Darren stayed where he was looking frightened, another thing he has been doing a lot since we left.
I looked to Evra hoping that he would see the question that I hoped was clear in my eyes, instead of seeing the question I had he asked his own. "Do you remember anything that happened that night, Mia?
I didn't get his question at first but then I understood I shook my head unsure as to where Evra was going with this. He sighed as if he did not want me to answer the way that I did. "What do you remember?" He asked as if suddenly forgetting that I couldn't easily answer his question. He handed me a pencil and piece of paper, and I wrote down my answer which wasn't much.
I told him that I remembered Going to find Darren after the show finding R.V. running away bleeding, probably dead by now. Then I told him that I remembered running after the Wolfman and Sam then finding Sam in the train car after I woke up from him hitting me on the head with the pipe. After that it gets a little fuzzy and then just blank.
Evra again sighed, then looked up at me, "Darren Said you turned into 'IT'." My eyes widened and Darren turned to look at the two of us as we continued talking. I bowed my head trying to think of whether or not I did turn into it and break my promise to Mr. Tall, and as I thought of the night I might've turned into 'IT' it became more clear that that was probably why I didn't remember anything.
This usually happened and so I turned back to Darren wondering what is was that I actually did that made him this way towards me. The one thing that I hoped was that with a little bit of time he won't be scared of me anymore and that we can resume our friendship.
I looked to Evra and remembered the time that I turned into 'IT' and I hurt him. I broke one of his arms and a few ribs, after that I told myself I would never turn into 'IT' yet here I am going against my own words.
I frowned when I thought about it and turned away from Evra trying and failing at remembering what happened to scare Darren the way that I did.
A.N. So here is the chapter still not exactly happy with the fight but I don't really feel like changing anything so here you go hope this is good enough. Also I will be going back to Dorene's side of the story and will not go back to Mia's till Book three so don't ask me to go back to Mia's Please.
Peace, Love, and Virtual Hugs
