(copyright, all right's reserved by writer...so there, lol) Shape 7 I paced up and down in my bedroom, I just didn't know what to do, it had been a whole week since I found out that Johan's new boyfriend was my old enemy. What could I do? Tell Johan the truth? He'd probably like I...I just don't know. Macole had systematically made me the most unpopular person in school, making him and the twosome gruesome top dogs again. It started with the little stuff like making me look stupid in front of people, the worst thing is I was told that if I did anything back they couldn't be held responsible for anything that would happen to Johan. It soon graduated from that to Makole taking my shape and causing trouble. Three times this week the headmaster had threatened me with expulsion; I couldn't defend myself either because it was him that caught my double vandalizing his car. Things just seemed to be going from bad to worse; I just didn't know what to do anymore. I wondered if Johan was all right, he had totally avoided me all week, and whenever I tried to get close to him Macole stopped it, I knew Johan wasn't happy you could see it in his eyes, that little spark of life he had there before had totally gone, especially when he was around Bill and Bob, they still teased the shit out of him, especially now the prom was coming up they kept saying he was going to wear a pink frilly dress. I rubbed my temples trying to think of a simple way out of this, it just didn't work I just couldn't think of anything. I glanced at the clock to realise I had only a few minutes left to get to school, I quickly morphed into a bird and flew out the bedroom window. When I was within the school grounds I landed behind a tree and making sure there was no one around I quickly morphed back into my original shape. I made it to class and to my seat with seconds to spare. I hated this class, usually the seating arrangements went me Macole and than Johan, but today we were missing Johan. I immediately feared for his safety. I leant over to Macole to whisper in his ear while attendance was been taken. "Where is he!" I demanded. "Where's who?" he asked while trying to hide his smirk. "You know who I'm talking about" I growled. "Humm refresh my memory for me" he snickered. "Don't fuck with me Macole, if you have hurt him I'll kill you" I stared at him coldly he looked all-serious for a second or two before he broke out in that smirk of his again. "You know Luke, I have started wars, I have killed hundred's of people and raped countless others while following you around this godforsaken rock, and I have never been to such an amazing place as a high school. I have never had so much fun causing so much trouble, I really like it here, I think I'll stay, and have a little fun at the prom...have you heard of the phrase going postal?" wait a second doesn't going postal mean he's going to either deliver mail...or kill loads of people. "I'll never let you get away with this" he just chuckled. "And who's going to stop me? You...Ha! Yea right, I'm tired of this conversation" he shouted something to get the teachers attention "Miss Luke's threatening to hurt me" that was all it took considering I was already under watchful eye's before I was told to leave and go to the principals office. With a serious slap on the wrist, I used my powers on the principle to wipe his memory of the incidents; I had done it so many times already I wondered how many more times I'd have to do it. By the time I had got out the office it was lunch time, I made my way around the school looking for any sign of Johan, Macole or the gruesome twosome, I couldn't see them anywhere I was so worried. I collapsed behind a tree and quietly cried into my hands. Johan was the reason I returned to live in the human world and now for all I knew he was dead. "You feel emotions?" I unfamiliar voice broke the silence. I looked up to see a pair of piercing blue eyes looking at me, the where slightly hidden behind a slightly wavy mop of dirty blond hair. To say this guy wasn't cute was ridiculous he had an angles face. He wore the typical skaters gear and carried a skateboard beneath one arm. "Excuse me? Of course I do" his earlier statement offended me but like he's cute so I'll forgive him...hehehe. "Strange I thought only humans had that quality" Excuse me? "I...I don't understand" he raised one of his eyebrows. "Neither did I. I saw a bird land and than I saw you...you are the bird" oh no...It had to be Macole it just had to be. I quickly got up and forced him roughly into the bushes away from peoples view and I forced him up against a tree. "Damn it Macole I'll fucking kill you I swear I have had enough of this" he thrust his hands in my face to try and defend himself, than I noticed a scratch on his arm which was bleeding. I realised instantly that Macole can't bleed and this was a real human. I almost had a heart attack and quickly dropped him to the floor, he lay there trying to catch his breath, I got down on my hands and knees and tried to make sure he was ok. He recoiled in panicky when I got near. "Keep away from me" he backed up against a tree. "Please! Please! I'm sorry I thought you where Macole, I swear I wouldn't have hurt you I swear I would never hurt anyone" he gripped his throat where my red handprint was, I felt so guilty. "Won't hurt anyone huh? What about Macole? What did he steal your spaceship or something?" spaceship? "I'm not a alien! I'm just another animal on this planet like you, god I'm really sorry I swear" "It's ok I guess...you sure your not going to kill me?" "I'm sure" I slumped down against a tree and he came and shuffled over to me. "So why so bothered about this Macole person?" I sighed heavily. "He's a creature like me but pure evil, he killed my last love and he's got my current love and he's planning to kill everyone at the prom" there was a short silence. "Wow heavy...where do you come from?" the fact everyone was going to die and that I almost killed him didn't seem to really phase him...I liked this kid he seemed very well adjusted. "It's a long story" I tried to get out of telling him the story. "I have time..." damn! "Well..." I started recounting my whole history to him in the shortened form of course. I got the occasional `oooo' and `ahhhh'. I was a pretty good storyteller if I do say so myself. But what now? I couldn't erase his memory, the least I could do was make him believe this was all some type of dream, but I guess it was nice having someone to talk to. I got up off the grass. "Man that's a horrible story, and you say he's going to kill everyone here?" there was just something freakily unnatural about this kid. "I just realised I never asked your name" "Its Jake, your Luke right? I've seen you around but I would have never guessed you where like a shape shifter never mind gay! I mean it's only my first week here I would have never ever guessed this school was going to be this cool" he smiled happily at me I smiled inwardly, a new kid? "So now you know...what you going to do?" he gave me a sly smile. "I'm going to control you and take over the world" there was complete silence for a second or two before he broke out in a fit of laughter, I soon followed he had an infectious laugh. "You hahaha should have hehehe seen your hahaha face!" "That was so not funny" it was hard to be serious when your laughing, I hadn't laughed for ages, I really liked this kid. "I thought it was. Well I think I have made my very first friend here" he stopped laughing and watched for my reaction. "You haven't made any friends yet?" he lost his smile. "No...no one wants to know the brainy skater new kid" I felt sorry for him. "Well I do...friend" I offered him my hand; he quickly took it and pulled himself up. "You can't tell..." he cut me off. "Tell what? That I made a new normal defiantly human friend? Of course not dude your secrets safe with me" we walked out the bushes together. Stood in front of me was Macole with the usual smirk on his face. "Humm I wonder what Johan would think of you been in the bushes with another guy" I went to hit him but Jake held me back. "So I take it your Macole? You're the one who is going to kill everyone?" Jake asked, Johan raised his eyebrow and looked from me to him, I think he was surprised I told him bout that. "Who said I was going to kill everyone? You know Johan is looking a bit mentally fragile defiantly open to suggestions" he started laughing and I lunged at him, he quickly dodged me and disappeared into the soil the only thing that could be heard was his laughing, Jake stood there open mouthed. "Cool!" was all that he could say. "I should go now Jake" "Where you going?" he looked so sad. "Home, see you around" I morphed into a bird at the delight of Jake and flew home. I know it was a risk leaving someone who knew my secret but I liked Jake a lot and I didn't want to mess with his mind. I was barely in the house for a few minutes before I heard a frantic banging at the door. I quickly ran to open it, there stood in the doorway was a beaten and bruised Johan. "Luke?" he collapsed in the doorway, I couldn't stand this anymore I had to let him know what was going on, I had to have my revenge on those assholes. End of part 7. I hope ya liked this the end and the big fight is commin soon YAY! Lol.
