Today started like any other my father worked at the junk field of our small town, on the weekends I would hang out with him and rummage around the place, you wouldn't believe what people threw away just last week I found a working PlayStation, so I grab a crowbar and start running around. in the middle of breaking a car window, I hear someone say something I look around scared cause it should only be me and my dad here.
"who's out there, this is private property leave or I'm calling the cops!"
no reply, maybe I'm hearing things... I decide to leave that area of the dump but as I walk away I hear it again this time more clearly.
"Marcus"
I look around again freaked out.
"how do you know my name, who are you show yourself!"
I see something move behind me and turn around swinging my crowbar but feel it hit nothing and then all I see is black.
I awoke a couple of hours later with blurry vision, a little annoyed no one noticed or helped me. I start to look around as my vision clears up and immediately I freak out. "I'm not in the junkyard anymore," I realize and start to yell "Dad!!!" no response, but then I hear footsteps and I start to run towards them I push thru some bushes only to see a giant wolf surrounded by clouds holding a baby bear in it teeth run by at an insane speed, I almost couldn't make out what I had seen, then a giant bear covered in lightning came into the clearing glaring at me with eyes filled with rage, I piss myself and point in the direction of the wolf and before I know it I'm alone in the clearing.
"I must still be asleep iv never had a dream so vivid tho," I think out loud
"you're very much awake Marcus" I hear a voice say out of nowhere.
I spin around flustered at hearing the same voice before I fell unconscious while in the junkyard
"are you the one who kidnapped me and brought me here why are you still hiding who are you and where am I" I wait but get no response. I hear thunder crackle in the sky to the east like a bad storm is coming. "fine keep hiding your weird stalker once I get back to town imma report this to the poli!" before I can finish my sentence a giant bear comes into the clearing holding its cub "oh fuck its back" I get ready to take off but then I hear the bear speak.
"Thanks, for the help in rescuing my cub, but may I ask why one of your kind is so far out here in the forest in the first place it's very unusual to see a human out here alone usually you roam in packs and none have ever looked so small and frail as you."
"This bear can talk, this is some wizard of oz level shit," I think to myself before responding telling the bear that I don't know how I got out here or where here even is I just woke up here, I think some guy knocked me out and left me here"
"hmm a lost human cub then, since you helped me save my cub ill take you in for tonight and bring you to the closest human village in the morning its the least I can do."
I agree to the help and we head to where the bear is living, a cave in the side of a small mountain in the forest it was dark by the time we got there my stomach grumbled as we got inside, the bear looked at me before grumbling "I suppose we should eat something too" before throwing a hunk of meat to me and the cub and then proceeding to take a bite out of her slab, I noticed the food seemed to turn into lightning in her mouth as she chewed and swallowed, afraid I might electrocute myself i poke at them meat, no reaction then i tear a small peice off again nothing I throw it in my mouth and start to chew then it turned into a black liquid and ran down my throat I paniced as I felt it then start to course threw my body weirdly I felt better my head wasnt throbing anymore from when I got knocked out, I look up at the bear and notice her eyes were huge it seems she was just as suprised as me, I ask "what just happend what is this meat."
the bear still looking surprised at me says "its just deer meat but that isn't the issue it's you, creatures have the ability to eat and absorb power that's how we get stronger and smarter but humans don't have this ability that is why they roam in packs, but you... you just absorbed that animals energy. are you sure your human?" the bear asked confused
"born and raised" I reply before continuing to eat the meat enjoying it by the time I was done eating the energy in my body was going crazy and I passed out...
