Davina the Hybrid

Chapter 12 Hardin

I wake up on a cold hard floor, feeling stiff all over my body, the room was dark. Where am I? How did I get here? I put my hands on the icy cold floors and slowly lift myself up, I can feel chains on my wrists and ankles, I stand up. I realize I am in some kind of dungeon. There were no windows in here at all, I was chained to the wall with, I smelled the chains, they we coated with Deadly Nightshade. I cringe at the smell. I looked at the door it had a small maybe a foot wide window with bars on the center of it. I tried to go look through it but the chains in the wall stopped me, causing them to burn my skin. Looked around some more, there was not a bed in here, or a place to use a bathroom. Great.

Where's Davina? Where's Jake? I began to pace in my cell, Where the hell am I? Is Davina safe? I punched the wall breaking a small piece of concrete, if only I can reach my wolf, I should have let Emily release it. I would have not been this pained by Deadly Nightshade. I wanted to break out of here and go find Davina.

My gut was telling me not to do it. Before I can get more angry, A vampire came inside my cell. He was near my height, Blonde hair pulled into a bun at the back, green eyes, with a slight mustache and goatee. He Looked me over carefully as he scratched his chin deep in thought. I didn't bother saying anything.

"You look like you'd be a warrior or guard here someday. Do you fight?" He asked his eyes were focused on me now.

"When I have to." I answered.

"Hmm, well, that's good to know. Do you have a coven? A clan?" He asked.

"No, I'm a lone Vampire." I spoke truthfully.

He grinned then and said, "Great, I'll be back." He strode out the cell door, locking it on his way out.

Okay, that was strange. Wonder what the hell that was about. I wonder what the hell is going on now. Then I heard a man walking towards my cell. This man was wearing Black Pants Black t-shirt with Black utility vets with a few weapons and gear on it, and he wasn't as tall as me but he had more muscle mass than I. He unlocked the cell door, then he unlocked me from the wall and told me to walk out. I still had the chains attached to me as I walked out first.

I went to the right and say more cells on either side of the short hall, maybe like 2 on each side then a set of stairs that let up to 2 doors, everything down here was black and grey. I walked up the stairs all the while chains still attached to me and rattling with every move I made.

I opened the door to it being nighttime, I walked up with the guard and stopped to wait for him to tell me where to go next. Before he was finished locking up the double doors. I looked around the area quickly. I saw we were on the side of this huge castle-like Mansion. Behind us was the forest line and in front of us a few feet away was a garden with benches and a few fountains in front of the Mansion and a Loop driveway with a limo parked out front.

"Okay let's go." The man behind me said pointing towards a building toward the back of the house. "Your going in there."

I nod as I started to walk. Then, I noticed her, my reason for living. Davina walks out wearing beautiful silver mermaid type dress that went all the way to the ground and showed a bit of her cleavage making her look sexy, and her hair was up with curls framing her beautiful heart shaped face. She looked scared stiff and I can tell she was trying not to show it. Then I saw the 6 foot something man standing by her side, holding her arm delicately guiding her toward the limo. I couldn't see his face as he looked like he was talking to her. Her jaw was set tight and she gives him a firm nod. I wanted to run to her. I wanted to yell for her, but whatever they gave me, stopped me from speaking and these chains stop me from escaping. I tried unsuccessfully to grow, instead I coughed as I stumbled, almost slipping.

"Careful fool!" The guard says as he steadies me. I look back at her as we kept walking, she was already gone and driving off in that limo with that guy. I clenched my fists. I swear I'll find her as soon as I figure out how the hell I'm going to break out of here.

We walked to the back of the house where there seemed to be a guest house. We walked inside and then, a woman dressed in a Purple and pink Cloak appeared in front of us. "Ah, another Rouge that doesn't have to be broken but put on trail." She says and smiles at the guard. "You can leave now, I'll seal this place up." She says to the guard.

He grumbles and leaves at once without even hesitating or looking back. This woman Undid my bindings and then waved her hand near my mouth saying something in a foreign language and says to me, "You can speak now. I did a spell on you earlier in case you tried bite one of the Werewolf guards or just simply to keep you quiet. Anyway, I am going to lock you in this guest house until you are needed. Tomorrow, You'll have to go through trail, and you have to speak on behalf of yourself and join this Clan." She says. "Or you die."

"Wait, join this Clan? Go through a trail? Of what kind?" I asked her.

She shrugged, "It's a thing what everyone usually goes through around here. Anyway you should be fine, you look and feel like one strong Vampire." She touched my shoulder then, her eyes turned white and glowed in front of me.

Jaw dropped, I didn't dare move as this must be something magical going on that she cannot control. I know Emily went through something similar and later were told not to move or touch them. I stayed still for a few moments, breathing slowly, not wanting to disturb what was going on in her head.

Her eyes started to fade and fall back into brown eyes again. She took a few deep breaths and looked at me amazement all over her face. She smiled at me and hugged me. I froze. I had no idea why she is hugging me. I don't know this woman at all and understand what she is doing.

She stepped back and fixed her composure. "My name is Becky, What you witness me having was a vision."

I raised an eyebrow in question, "So?" I said.

"You help save us all, you and a few others. The only way to do that though is to do-" She walked up to me and packed each hand on either side of my temples and I felt a pressure in my head pushing down on me I closed my eyes and she said, "Release."

Finally....

I heard a strong mighty voice in my head and then a pounding headache started happening.

"I'm so sorry, but I knew I needed to do that, just like I know now that I must lock you in here and keep people away from her until the morning. Your going to go through a lot. There's a few people like me that want this place taken down and given to the rightful owners and leaders. We will all take down Demetri but in order for it to work we need you, don't worry, your secret is safe with me. Bye for now." As she was talking she has been waving her hands around forming shapes and placing them or pushing them out of her into the air and creating some sort of forcefield around this little 2 bedroom house. As she was done talking to me she left.

As soon as she left, I then fell to my knees holding my head in complete agony. My head felt like it was being crushed, my body started to get an achy feeling all over. Every muscle in my body was tense. Sweat began to poor out of me, my breathing picked up speed. I can feel my heart pounding in my chest. I closed my eyes, wanting it to end, hoping I can find some sort of opening of healing or normalcy that I can cling on to until it was over.

Breathe, Just breathe...

What's going on!!! I wanted to shout but I only said it out loud in my head.

I am your wolf, I've been locked inside your head since you were 19 years old and then shut out because of the Vampire part of you. I've been waiting long to be let out...

My wolf. I have a wolf now. Another part of me. Then, I wonder if this was how Davina had felt when her wolf came out.

No, yours is much worse... Davina's wolf came on time. As for you, I have been here waiting to be freed, and because it's been 3 years of waiting, it'll hurt more for you. We have a long night ahead of us, your body mind is accepting me and now your body has to accept me, then once your mind and body accepts me then you'll be forced to turn fully. When it comes time to turn, you must breathe and let me take over. The best I can do for you is to tell you to stop fighting it. Just breathe, the longer you fight the longer the pain will last, because your preventing me from becoming one with you....

I kept my eyes closed as the pounding in my head then, changed into throbbing. My whole body started getting hot and it made me uncomfortable. I tried to lay a different way on the floor, I tried to find a cold spot anywhere on the floor to cool off my body. I couldn't get comfortable. My body ached all over.

Then I heard and felt the cracking bones all over my entire body. I was in complete agony at this point. I couldn't focus on anything anymore, I couldn't feel that I was full of sweat all over my body. I was lost in the pain I felt of my body breaking, cracking and bending in odd ways that I had no Idea I was even holding my breath.

Don't fight it man... Just Breathe, let me take over...

"I can't!!" I yelled and the house shook.

Then my body started changing faster and my breathing grew faster. I closed my eyes and this time I just let go of it all.

Finally...

Just by breathing, and letting go, I was fully changed. I stood there my wolf whimpering from the stress of the change. My wolf began to pant. Breathing heavier and heavier as if it has been running for miles. Meanwhile all we did was just stand in one spot in the middle of the kitchen.

We're not done....

I growled as soon as my body temperature rose again, and my bones started cracking and twisting. I couldn't take the pain anymore and I began hyperventilating.

Calm down, Hardin... We got this, almost there... Let go again.

I growled some more and just when I was about to take in another breath, I blacked out....

I woke up on the floor, naked, my body was stiff and sore. I tried to move but felt a stinging sensation throughout my entire body again. My body started to heat up, sweat poured down my face as I began breathing harder. What's going on?

You passed out, you fought too hard to not let me through... Now we are going again.

I can't do it. I thought weakly as my muscles all began to tense.

We have no choice... We must turn, it's been way too long... We will keep going at this until we are fully turned... Remember, your not the only one going through this, it hurts me as well...

Hurts you? How does it even hurt you?

I am a part of you, I feel what you feel and because I am the wolf part, It hurts not to run and stretch or exercise all those years being stuck inside your head without feeling anything until now... Trust me, this hurts me as it does you.. We have to breathe and trust in eachother in order for this to be successful. I am a huge part of you...

If that's so... What is your name?

My name is Kal.

Nice to finally meet you, so any more advice before- My body spasmed on the floor as my bones started cracking again and I yelled out in pain, closing my eyes.

Breathe, Hardin, like before, Let's me take over...

I yelled as both legs cracked and twisted at the same time and I felt fur growing. I let out a breath. Exhale and inhale slowly I trusted him to take over. In that moment, this time, I felt him pushing through and this time, I allowed him. Just like that I just kept breathing in and out slowly as this time was a bit faster than the first time changing into this form.

I was standing on all fours, my legs feeling wobbly. "I did it." I breathed.

One more turn, now trust me to take full control now. This one will not be as easy as the simple wolf formation.

I groaned and my wolf whined a little as my body heat came up again. This time, my legs all gave out underneath me, bending backwards all at once, cracking in half. I howled in pain. I began breathing hard again, wanting it to end now. I was growing tired again. I wish I can just sleep and get this over with. Yes, I know I sound like a big baby, but this pain is completely unbearable...

Cracking got louder and I felt as if my skull was cracking also, my bones also grew larger. My paws turned into huge claws. My eyes grew wide as I sucked in a breath. More cracking and even down my spine, legs, neck, face, skull, hand, feet, everything was cracking at the same time. Cracking, shaping, extending, stretching, growing more fur..

I felt my legs growing and my head was now almost touching the ceiling. I caught my reflection in the window. I couldn't believe my eyes of what I saw. My legs looked big on top where my thighs should be and my feet were the opposite direction, one arm was larger than the other, my face was hairy and my wolf head was bigger and my nose was pushed in. I looked twisted and demented, and horrifying..

Once again, I began shaking my entire body from fear this time, because what ever I was turning into didn't look right and it freaked me out so much. I never thought I would be a wolf or a Hybrid. I blacked out a second time again.

I wake up laying on the same spot on the floor naked. I took a deep breath and as soon as I let the air out of my lungs, Kal Tok my by surprise and took over. This time, I changed into the wolf fully without hesitation, without feeling any pain at all. like I said, I was surprised. I wasn't expecting to turn that quick.

See, when your not fighting it gets easier. We will be even faster than this when shifting. You won't even remember this pain once we're done..

It got quiet again as I waited for the turning. But it didn't happen. What's going on Kal? I tried asking my wolf but there was no response at all. I walked around the kitchen in wolf form and breathed in and out slowly, taking my time waiting until I started turning again. Nothing was really new to me with this newfound gift of being a werewolf and vampire. It is because already as a vampire I had all the same abilities as a wolf.

Just like that my bones began twisting, cracking and growing with more speed than before. I yelled out in pain and remembered to focus on my breathing again. I have to let him take over and just breathe this whole thing out. I closed my eyes, so I can just focus on breathing slowly and let Kal take over all the pain I know that I should be feeling by now, but was not. Inhale and exhale... Just breathe... I just focused on the breathing over and over and I felt my mind relaxing as Kal took over my body and did the rest to help us shift quicker and painlessly.

Finally... Kal Says.

I opened my eyes and my head was bend slightly touching the ceiling. I was hunched over a little bit uncomfortable and annoyed, that I couldn't stand straight in this little house. Anger flowed through my body, I was outraged because I was not allowed to go for a run. My Primal Wolf body Craved it, needed it. Behind the anger was also relief. I felt Relieved, because my wolf hasn't been out since I turned 18 which was 4 years ago. Different from Davina, her wolf came out just days after being bitten and changed by me. She, was the first Hybrid, I am the second.

I took a deep breath and hadn't realized my wolf was trembling. Why? I was confused, I thought a wolf was big and fearless, strong, etc. But, I couldn't stop trembling, no matter how hard I tried to focus on breathing and staying calm. What is going on with me?

Kal? I asked

Just weakened from not turning all that time, weakens from lack of exercise that entire time... Imagine, if you were in regular form right now and you were locked away in a box for years, with no exercise, no enjoying company, feeling the heat from a hot sun, or the feeling a beautiful girl will give you, and shouting to your partner, or best friend, or soulmate over and over, hoping, praying they'd hear you but never do hear your cries.. Again, for years.. Then, finally being free, tell me, how would your body first react?

Just like this I suppose, because we are one. Look, Kal, I'm sorry that has happened to you, but I didn't know. If I had, you'd be out a lot sooner. I told Kal.

It's okay, it's just the anger and weakness I feel.. I hate feeling weak. We need to get stronger, and sooner.

I nodded my massive head and then, took complete control again. Shifting back immediately into vampire form. I wish there was a Mirror that I could have used to see Kal my wolf. I guess I won't know until I finally get out of this place. I looked around the place and noticed a few things had fallen that were close to the edge of the counter and table. I really did shake this entire house didn't I?

Yup, well I'll be sleeping now, I'm exhausted, next time we turn, won't be as hard but will be mildly painful.

Good to know, rest well, Kal.

I did see my eyes in the window, they glowed gold white. As I said good night to Kal, I guess that's what they will do now when I talk to him or when I am in wolf form. Frowning, I looked in the fridge for some food, for some reason, I was real hungry now.

I raised my eyebrows, surprised that there were fresh food in here, considering this house was unoccupied when I arrived. Maybe they always restock every week or something. I quickly grabbed sandwich meat, cheese, lettuce, 2 apples, Yogurt, and a bottle of Apple juice. I looked at the counter and grabbed a loaf of bread that was inside a bread bin. I made myself a Ham and Cheese sandwich with fresh lettuce, and I ate my yogurt and then Used a small knife I found in a drawer to cut and slice the apples and eat it off the knife like I've always done as a young boy. Next, I downed my apple juice and continued eating.

While I ate, I thought about Davina. My heart aches for her, I missed her with everything inside me. I worry about her safety, I always have. I've been in love with this girl when she first told me to piss off. I smiled at the memory at how mean she was towards me. I didn't give up on her though, no matter how much she tried to push me away. It just made me want her more. Only because, everything in my life was handed to me, on a silver Platter if I must. She was the first girl who didn't swoon over me, she wanted nothing to do with me. She's also the first person I wanted to fight for, to get her to know and see the real me, also the first girl I have ever loved.

My life was perfect with her, we had everything set, until the day I got captured. I was going to marry her, I wanted to, I still do. I was captured by a Vampire King named Timothy Drake. At first, they were going to use me to do their dirty work for them and find humans for them to eat or torment or to use as s*x slavery for this other place, but Tim saw potential in me and decided to try me out with his soldiers, he made me battle in small fights with other Vampires who tried to steal his riches or to put his enemies in their places when he finds out some were backstabbing him and or Black mailing him to gain loyal companions. The Vampire World is very competitive, like who can be the Richest and most respected Vampire in the country. They all compete to who has the biggest Territories, or companies, business, armies etc. Most of the rich and famous are Supernatural beings.

Being a soldier for Tim had its perks, I had my own apartment like room in his Mansion, I could have any girl I desired but refused. I can feed on anyone at any time but just chose to hunt those outside of the territory, I went for the ones who I thought deserved to be tormented. Later, I got so good at killing people I became second highest ranking Soldier for Tim and was to be one of his personal body guards. I had to stay, to prove my loyalty to him, and Work off being given eternal life.

I did all that within the year and with that he promised my freedom but also promised I would get no protection from him ever again.

I sighed I got up and cleaned what little mess I made and headed to the room to lay down and try sleep. I couldn't though, my mind kept going back to Davina. I haven't been inside this Mansion at all. If this place was ran by a Vampire, I can only imagine the things that may be going on right now. For now, I'll have to wait and see what is in store for me tomorrow. The witch did say her and some others had a plan. I wonder what it is, and if it's an escape, o wanted in, I have to try and get back to Davina. Not that I miss her but I feel it in my body that I needed her, I feel weak and defeated, even though I didn't do anything at all today. Maybe it came from the changing I had gone through for my wolf. Frowning, no this is deep emotional weakness I feel. This is the mate bond slowly fading with the distance. I cringe, I do not want it to fade. I have got to get to her and soon. With nothing else left in me to fight my sleep, I dosed off thinking of her icy blue eyes and long dark hair.
