Chereads / Silence is a sound / Chapter 3 - Feathers and claws

Chapter 3 - Feathers and claws

On my back...there were feathers...my hands were like a birds feet and my mouth, as I started to choke from the shock of it all seemed to have grown an inch longer...it felt hard,like bone. I wanted to scream but i knew we were miles away from civilisation...maybe that's why I couldn't move my arms, these wings...there was no doubt I was mutated from the radiation,that's the only way to explain it...right? I turned to kai for answers only to realise he was crying...

"h-hey....are you okay?"

"I'm a monster"

those three words..."I'm a monster" would define the next week, it was the realisation that we were like supervillains or freaks from a freak show,it was terrible...of course kai didn't know about life outside but when we were kids I would always scare him with stories, I was adopted you see...always knew it, never judged for it though! I needed to think fast, kai didn't know he had ears and tail yet he defined himself as a monster??

"how are you a monster kai...?"

"because my sister is a big scary bird and I'm gonna be one too...!"

then he laughed...for the first time since I jumped out of that window, he laughed. I laughed too...but I couldn't hold it away from him anymore...

"no kai, you're a wolf.."

"...."

he looked heart broken for a second, then smiled like a maniac...

"k-kai...you're being a little bit cra-"

I was interrupted by kai jumping up and chasing is tail, screaming "I'm a wolf!" and howling

this is why we are so close, because he can put on a show in the most terrible situations...

my big sister was always strange, and she really craved plants and berries...the only meat she would eat was rabbit. but I cant judge, some people eat each other and I cant judge them so I dont really care...I'm happy that I'm a doggy though! sister says im a wolf but that's just a big dog with teeth, and I have LOTS of teeth...
