Chapter 2:
From Human to Fangs
I decided to go explore those ruins and took off. I ran so fast not sure if I was faster than before or not. Either way, I was running without losing breath which was strange as by now my lungs should have been hurting. I decided now to look at my feet which were still small but the nails had grown like my fingernails.
"A Bigger chest, more curves, my feet are still the same size, I have a way to hear heart beats, and I have teeth that are different so I'm not human anymore. " I said to myself thinking out loud. I decided to kick it up a notch. I could see more details of the ruins now .
They were black but not naturally. The place had a broken gate area with no skeletons. There was lots of broken weapons scattered all over. I picked up one of the weapons. It looked to be a stone spear. I picked it up and and held it to the moonlight.
"Onyx or Obsidian?" I asked out loud musing to myself. I stepped even closer. There was lots of insects. I could hear them. I never learned how to fight so I hoped I wouldn't need to. I kept the spear just in case I could use it though.
I walked looking down at the ground. There was some broken stones. They looked shaped maybe even polished at one time. I noticed there wasn't any furniture or decorations. I then stepped more in. The place had no rotting smell but it clearly wasn't abandoned recently.
This place is ancient like before the Renaissance era. I thought to myself. I could feel a pull. It lead me through a lot of broken areas that were definitely where killing happened even if there were no bones anymore to where two wolf statues were on either side of a set of double,stone doors.
The pull urged me to open the door. The statues glowed red. I shivered and held my spear shaking. They both turned into men with wolf ears and tail. Both were white haired but one looked twenty or so. They both looked at me with golden eyes. One had part of his bangs over one eye. His fangs showing in his smile. He was slender yet muscular"About time someone matched with the grimoire." He said making me confused.
Yes the grimoire back there." Replied the other one who had scars all over. he also had moustache gotee and beard all into one. Seeing him made me think of Zeus or some king despite there being no crown on him.
The super muscular one took my spear from my shaky hand. "Gimme that before you get hurt" he ordered the growl in his voice. I nodded mutely and opened the doors. On a pedestal was a gold tablet like book made with strips of papyrus.
I picked it up feeling how heavy it was and I noticed a shimmering around it before a voice spoke. "You now can learn from small animals by drinking their blood. " I noticed the voice in my head didn't sound human, nor computer, I would say demonic with how my hair stood on end.
Take me with you and I'll help you gain power and knowledge beyond anything you ever dreamed of." It said in my head. My eyes flit to the book not sure if that's who was talking to me or something else.
"How would you do that?" I asked the book and it glowed purple and then I could see writing on it. "With blood you will learn more and gain more power" the voice said. I picked it up. "Oof you are heavy Ill need help carrying you." I said and I then got a word in my head "change" I said that word and it changed into a gold covered book with paper pages. I carried it out of the room with a smile.
