Chapter 4 Center Call! Martin’s A What?

Martin was acting...odd...even for him.

At lunch he was ravenous, chicken, fish, pork, steak, he just kept eating. “Dang bro you sure can eat!” Jarred complimented. “You ever think of entering a championship eaters contest?”

“Dunno might be a good snack!” He said and licked his lips. He saw some fried chicken on Jarred’s tray. “Jarred buddy, you gonna eat that?” He threw an arm around the jock.

“Well…” He was gonna say. “Well yeah!” Only to be stopped by Martin’s musk. The strange scent hit his nose. “You...you can have it…” His heart began to pound in his chest.

“Thanks you’re a pal!” He ate Jarred’s food and the jock just watched him go, a weird smile on his face.

Diana watched the whole scene and gagged. “What is up with him?”

Martin finished eating and went back up for more. Jarred seemed to come back to his senses after a bit. ‘Whoa what was I doing, hey my chicken’s gone?!’ He rubbed the back of his head in confusion.

Diana approached her step brother. “What’s going on Martin you are acting weirder than usual?” She watched him load up a tray with chicken wings and steaks.

“Back off these are mine!” He snapped.

“Are you crazy?!” She hissed. “You are acting like a total freak!” She tried to take the tray from him, causing Martin to growl.

“Mine!” The two began a tug of war.

“You are acting like a child!” She scolded. ‘When did he get so strong?’ Diana pulled harder and harder, but Martin wasn’t budging.

“Martin!” She shrieked, causing the blonde’s ears to ring.

He covered his ears, causing the trey to flip and cover Diana in chicken wings and steak sauce. The girl fell back as the force of her pulling was now fully on her and down she went. “No! My lunch!” He began to pick the food up off the floor, he sniffed each one to make sure it was still good, before he ran off with it.

“Get back here Martin Mystery!” Diana got up and was gonna give chase only for the lunch lady to grab her by the shoulder.

“Hold it, someone needs to pay for the food.” Diana sunk, as she was dragged off to pay for the ruined food and the rest her brother took off with.

‘You’ll pay for this Martin!’ After forking over her allowance and cleaning up the cafeteria as payment, she went looking for her brother.

Meanwhile…

Chip was freaking out, paranoia eating away at him. Two of the guys  that messed with Martin were now missing. Another Lost Person Poster added to the bulletin board. ‘He’s a freak, he’s a psycho, fuck fuck fuck!’ One was a coincidence, two was a problem. ‘I can take that freak, he won’t get me he’s a loser!’

He got a frightening look at just how strong Martin could be. Chip liked to think he was an alpha male, but in the face of raw power he was shaken. How quick the entitled dick-head attitude fades when real consequences are baring at the throat. His girlfriend kept trying to reach him but he wasn’t answering his phone.

‘Calm down, maybe they are fine, just wait...it’ll be fine!’ He was sweating bullets. He decided to take a shower and calm down.

Unknown to him, something was watching him from his window.

The reason why Martin was hungry was because his body was going through a change. His ears grew more curved and pointy and his muscles were becoming new and layered making him durable and super strong. It was preparing for the transformation.

Martin’s sweat glands were changing, allowing him to produce and emit strong pheromones. His cells were changing to allow some unique abilities to manifest. Smells were becoming clearer and he’s finding he’s able to smell emotion.

His senses were becoming sharper, the random burst of fluxing senses was making him crazy. His sight was becoming intense as he was trying to see at a great distance and close up at the same time, making his vision blur and distort. His hearing was spiking, animal noises at a distance sounded right in front of him, he could hear heart beats of people like loud drums, when they spoke it made his ears ring. “Aaaahhhh!”

He ran off to be alone.

Antonio, Billy, and Java have a little meeting. “Something is up with Martin.”

“Martin is acting strange.” The caveman said.

“It could be an alien parasite or maybe a curse?” Billy looked to Antonio.

“I haven’t sensed any magic on him, but…” The werewolf attack springs to mind.

They go to his room and find it a mess, more of a mess than normal Martin mess. “What happened in here?” There was claw marks discovered.

“Billy call MOM!” Antonio snapped. The witch boy found some hair and activated the special Center computer in Martin’s room. “Let’s have this analyzed.”

Java took photos of the claw marks and sent them over. “You don’t think something got Marty do you?” Billy asked. He saw the missing persons posters.

“I have a bad feeling about this.” The rage Martin showed in gym class, the weird bursts of aggression, and the missing people were jerks who had been messing with Martin. He hoped he was wrong. ‘I’m sure I healed his injury…’

“What’s happening? Where is Martin?” MOM came on.

“We don’t know, but something is up. We are sending you pictures and some suspicious fibers.” Antonio said.

“We’ll run a scan and we’ll activate the tracker in Martin’s watch.”

“Thanks MOM!” They deactivated the computer and it slid back into the wall. Just in time to as Diana burst into the room.

“MARTIN!” She froze. “What are...you guys doing in here? Did you trash Martin’s room?”

“We happen to be Martin’s friends. We found the room like this.” Diana shrugged.

“Whatever nerd, not like I care if that moron’s stuff gets wrecked.” Antonio twitched in annoyance.

‘If you weren’t Martin’s sister, you’d be so hexed!’

“I’m looking for my brother where is he?”

“Not here, and shouldn’t you knock?” Antonio crossed his arms.

“Its that idiot’s fault for leaving the door unlocked. If you see him, tell him I’m looking for him. He owes me money!” She left slamming the door as she went.

“Marty’s sister is scary…” Billy said and Java nodded.

“And loud.”

Antonio locked the door. “Sigh, we’ll have to wait for Martin here.”

Chip hadn’t left his room the rest of the day. His girlfriend showed up looking for him. “Chip I’ve been calling and texting you all day what’s going on?”

“They are missing, and I think I’m next!”

“Whoa ease up on the panic, who’s missing?”

“Brad and Luke, they are gone and I could be next.” All day he’s had this creeping feeling something/someone was watching him but he didn’t see anything.

“Are you freaked out about what happened with Martin today, he’s harmless.” She laughed.

‘You don’t know...I don’t know that...something is up…’ He was sweating bullets.

“No way, are you scared of Martin?” He flipped out.

“I’M NOT SCARED OF ANYONE!” She glared at him.

“Don’t you yell at me jerk!”

“Ugh, sorry. I got chewed out by coach at lunch I’m just...wound up...I think I need some air.” He grabbed his jacket.

“Well come back soon babe, if you need help I can help you unwind.” He smiled and left.

The sun had set and there was no sign of Martin. Java left to cover for them, but Billy and Antonio were worried. ‘There’s two scenarios here neither of them are good.’ Either Martin got snatched by whatever that’s making the people disappear, or Martin is the one doing the disappearing.

“He should be back by now!” The computer opened up and there was a call from the Center.

-x-

Chip was walking around the campus. The fresh air really did help and walking helped clear his head. ‘I’m fine, there’s no way that Martin freak could take those guys down, I know what I’m dealing with now, he surprised me before I can still take him down!’

His confidence was swelling back up and so was his ego. A growl from behind him made Chip turn. “Bring it on freak!” He wheeled around looking ready to throw a punch but what was before him wasn’t a human.

It was a large furry monster, clearly a werewolf. “Ehh!?”

“Grrr!” He growled and lunged at him. Chip dodged and tried to run. The werewolf’s claw caught the jacket, but it was shallow, slashing through the thick jacket but not reaching through his shirt or skin.

“Ahh ahh ahh ahh!” He ran but the wolf was faster. It grabbed him but Chip sacrificed his jacket to keep running.

The werewolf dropped the jacket and pounced on the boy. Chip was face down in the ground, shaking in fear. He realized in an instant he was dead, in the grip of fear he peed himself.

It didn’t save him as the werewolf lunged and fangs sank in. “AAHHH!”

“What’s the results MOM?” Billy asked.

“We ran the tests a few times, and the results were conclusive.” The hair was fur, and it belonged to Martin. “The fur belongs to Martin, his DNA matched but also has traces of werewolf DNA!”

“Martin’s a werewolf?!” The two boys gasped.

“How did this happen?!” MOM snapped. “Did he get injured in the fight with the werewolf?”

“He did...but I healed him with my magic!” MOM sighed.

“The lycan virus spreads quickly, even if you healed the wound the virus can take root.” MOM crossed her fingers. “Tell me was Martin scratched or was he bitten?”

“Oh...he was scratched…”

“Then we have a big problem, a scratch will turn Martin into an Alpha Wolf!”

“A what?!” Werewolves bite to create submissive bitches for them to control, a scratch is usually the last ditch effort, cursing someone who manages to kill them.

“Alpha wolves don’t like competition, so they like to take out those that are threats to them.” Antonio had a bad feeling about this.

“I’m sure Martin had nothing to do with the disappearances.”

“That’s not what I’m saying. If a new alpha werewolf is born the previous one will see him as a threat.” Antonio’s eyes widened.

“Marty’s in danger!” Billy cried.
