Thread: After the Change (HaloHeroWolf118, DawnShadows)

Mike woke up early and yawned stretching as he sat up in his bed it had been several years since the disease had swept across the world bringing with it change. Many people had been effected by the disease and altered by it, Mike had been one of many who the disease had not effected but his brother had not been so lucky. His mother and father had disowned him after the disease did what it did to him, Mike had shouted at them for hours after finding his brother on his doorstep with all his things packed behind him. Mike had taken his brother in and had supported him through it all and noted Jason was feeling better since returning to school at sixteen his little brother had no one else to turn to save him a few affected cousins. Mike got out of his bed dressed only in boxers and walked to Jason's room down the hall and knocked on the door. C'mon Jason get up and get ready. he said knocking on the door loudly. He stopped only when he heard the grumbling from inside, returning to his room Mike ran a hand through his sandy blonde hair and looked at himself in the mirror on his closet door. Mike was good looking well toned and broad shouldered with bright emerald eyes. Mike pulled out some clean clothes jeans, ACDC t-shirt and shoes he sprayed on some deodorant having showered last night before pulling on his clothes. Stepping out of his room he heard the shower going and knew Jason was up, he walked into the kitchen and poured himself a bowl of Grape Nuts. Jason woke to the knocking on his door and called out that he was up, yawning as he sat up in bed Jason looked down at his hands. Once they had been normal hands but now they were covered in black fur and tipped with canine nails. The other side of his hands where his palms were were now pads and his ears stood up on top of his head. The disease had turned Jason into a anthro wolf but not everyone had that was the thing about the disease it changed you either based on what animal you hung around with or what animal it chose. He had been lucky though now his brother saw no reason to keep him from going to High School. He was worried as he had not seen many others like him but he could no longer avoid it he had been home-schooled for his freshmen year and was starting that year as a Sophmore. Jason had been different before the change as he had a like for boys rather than girls a fact that he had hidden for years deciding he would come out after getting out of High School only Mike knew and he had been cool about it. He got up grabbed his clothes from his closet and leaving his room for the bathroom. Never wore clothes to bed see it as redundant given he had fur now, he looked at himself in the mirror his amber eyes looked back at him from under his long black and red bangs. Another thing about the disease had been the odd fur coloring it created in some of the ones it changed. For Jason his fur was red and black though in a particular way the red created a tribal like tattoo on his right shoulder and upper back and ending on his left shoulder and the tips of his head fur. He like the coloring he had and had grown use to the tail that wagged lazily behind him. Padding into the shower he started it up. He bathed and dried he was pulling on his shirt as he walked into the kitchen was his brother was just finishing his bowl of cereal. He poured himself a bowl and sat down, I don't want to go. he said at last after a long silence. To bad your going. Jason said which brought an annoyed sigh from Jason, It going to be okay. he said which brought only a grunt from the young wolf across from him. There are going to be others like you at the school so it will be okay you might even find you like boys who have been turned. Mike offered trying to cheer his younger brother up. Jason merely nodded as he munched on his cereal and hoped that his brother was right. Jason looked around the modest little two bedroom his brother had moved them into a few months after he had come to live with him. No pictures of their parents adorned the wall only pictures of them both before and after his change. Mike had done his best for Jason working hard and giving up so much for Jason his thoughts turned to that Mike was right and that he had to make it work for Mikes sake. He felt more Determined to make school work, he finished his bowl and met his brother out in the car. Mike washed out his bowl and grabbed his wallet and keys from the table by the door, I'll be in the car when your ready. he told Jason. He strolled to the 1967 Chevrolet Impala and climbed into the drivers seat, the black vehicle had a nice paint job on it with a flaming skull on the engine hood. Jason slipped into the seat beside him and he turned the car on. They drove with the radio on listening to some good modern rock it took them half an hour to reach the school and Jason got out. Nervously Mike had to get out as well just to drop off contact information and so forth. The passed many kids on their way in for Mike it was like going back in time schools always made him feel his age, they waited in the front office for a few minutes. After a while they had everything squared away and Jason was off for his first class, the principal gave make some forms to fill out and Mike did before leaving and going to work. Jason found his first class room which for him was study hall it was the first day of school and so every one came to study hall first before being given their schedules. Jason took a seat in the back of the class trying to make himself as invisible as possible there weren't that many kids who had been changed like him and the only cute boy Jason saw that had been turned was an Otter.
