Chapter 7 - What the hell did I become?

"He hasnt been back since then?" Liam asked, if Max went out that late in the night when that stuff was still rampaging then .....

"Yes" Lucas replied with a dull expression. They were really worried yesterday and they couldn't contact the school security as Max jumped over the fence.

Liam lost his calm. Max couldn't die because him. Without changing his clothes Liam dashed out of the room. He had to go back and find Max.

"Max!" Liam shouted in the small forest that was behind the males dorm, the one they usually used as cover to jump over the fence, also the same he encountered the werewolf yesterday.

He didn't plan to come back here so soon after what happened last night but he had to, because this was the only place max could have been to look for him.

"Max!" Liam shouted, but his voice just echoed without response.

Liam searched frantically but he couldn't find any sign of Max,

Just then on the floor he saw Max's phone, it was broken...into .. two?

Liam stared worriedly at the phone and then his surroundings. He really hoped that Max was safe.

Lucas and Jack finally came, when they saw the broken phone in Liam's hand, they were shocked. What the hell happened to Max. The air was heavy.

Liams heart was heavy. He turned to Lucas and Jack with red eyes.

"Let's split up and see what we can find." Liam said.

Liam swore to himself that he wasn't going to go back till he found a clue.

Liam went deeper into the forest as he continued his search. Just then he suddenly perceived what seemed to be like blood?

Liam's stared around but he couldn't find anything, but his eye caught some oddity on the ground, it was like a ground, a cultivated ground, like something that was digged.

The soil within that area, looked virgin.

Liam's heart started to beat, he suddenly had a thought in his mind and he dearly hoped that it was a lie.

He immediately crouched down and started to dig the area with his hands, he wasn't fast enough but he just continued, the desperation of finding his lost friend overwhelmed him.

Time slowly passed and Liam had finally removed a sizable amount from the soil.

Just when he thought that maybe he was thinking too much, his hand finally met something that wasn't sand. It was a body.

Liam immediately digged more fervently to see what it was and behold.....

Max?

Liam hamds froze in mid air as he saw whose face the body belonged to.

He looked at the guy in fear, he was dead, he wasn't breathing.

Liam felt his eyes well up, he had the urge to scream at the world.

"It's all my fault!" Liam muttered silently. Maybe just maybe if he hadn't called his roommates and told them that he was coming this wouldn't have happened.

He saw the claw mark, there was no mistaking it, it was that beast. That werewolf.

Liam suddenly had a deep hatred for werewolves. When he was a little kid he loved fantasy movies that talked about vampires and humans sgapeshifting into animals, he always felt like they were cool.

But now?

Liam got up, he had to find Lucas and Jack, they had to bring him back. But just as he was going back he suddenly thought about what he was going to tell Lucas and Jack about Max's death, but at the same time he couldn't leave Max's body there.

Liam decided to go back, he will deal with the matter himself.

As he got back to the spot he saw Max's dead body, he stared at the spot he kept the body but....

You have got to be kidding me!

Liam ran to the spot speedily but he couldn't see the body.

Fear immediately gripped him.

What the fuck?

Liam was shocked. How was the body that was here minutes ago suddenly missing?

He looked around but didn't see anyone around at the same time he couldn't find Max.

"What wrong Liam?" Lucas voice suddenly broke his tensed thoughts.

Liam suddenly turned around his face solemn. Jack and Lucas were together, they stared at Liam in confusion, his expression wasn't normal.

"We need to get out of here now." Liam said as he started walking away quickly.

"What's wrong?" Jack asked.

"Just shut up and follow me" Liam replied.

Meanwhile within the forest someone walked staggeringly. The person walked like a zombie, the figure had a dead look on his face.

The figure slowly walked out from the forest into the school environment, everywhere was busy already with students starting to go about their daily studies.

Nobody seemed to notice the staggering way this person walked, the person walked towards an alleyway, the figure was out of everyone's sight and nobody was around here.

Then a young man suddenly walked out from the other end of the hidden alleyway, as he walked, he noticed the figure that was staggering towards him.

The figure was bloodied and had a shocking wound on his chest. If Liam was here he'd be shocked because this person was someone he knew, someone that was his best friend.

It was Max

The young man stared at Max with a strange look.

"What's wrong man, are you alright?" He asked staring at Max.

Max face was pale, his lips were dry and his eyes were dim and unfocused.

Max slowly walked up to the guy and then he suddenly rushed up to the guy and held him by the neck.

The next thing that happened was scary.

His canine teeth magically elongated, growing longer as he bit the man's neck.

The man's blood poured in waves into Max's mouth, the man struggled but he couldn't get away from Max firm grasp.

Max dead look slowly recovered and his pale face was begining to show some color, his eyes were slowly becoming focused.

As Max sucked the man's blood, the guy fell unconscious from the excess blood loss. The man's face was pale and was yet to be known if he was dead.

Max suddenly stopped and stared at himself in confusion, he stared at the man who he was holding.

What am I doing?

He remembered climbing the fence and going out to look for Liam, when suddenly a creature with red eyes chased him, he could remember vividly as the monster tore through his heart and how he felt his life slipping away.

From what he remembered he was supposed to be dead.

If he was dead what was he doing here with a man in his arms and his teeth on the man's neck.

Wait?? Don't tell me I was just sucking his blood now

Max rubbed his lips and indeed there was a red liquid on it.... It was blood.

Max eye widened as he looked at the man.

What the hell did I become?
