Thread: Cases of S.D.T.F

Edric sighed as he strolled down the side walk pulling his long trench coat closer to him as the cold mid-Autumn wind swept down the dark city streets. Edric was not one of those people that stood out he kept his head down and didn't make waves, even now no one gave him a second glance as he passed by the windows of shops that cast light onto the side walk as cars sped past him on the street. Edric finally relaxed as the wind died down to a gently occasional breeze, passing by a restaurant that advertised its dishes in the window he paused and looked at them. In the light from the window Edric's Blue and Grey eye's looked hungrily at the fake steak sitting on a square plate. The portion of food on the plates always made him feel like the business cheated it's customers for the amount of money you ended up paying. Heh, how stupid are some humans? asked a voice in Edric's head his constant companion Nergal. Nergal had been with Edric since birth as the voice claimed Eric just thought he was crazy or close to it. Some Human have more than others. he mentally responded which received a grumble of annoyance from Nergal. Edric turned down an alley that led to his apartment and slowly got a feeling that something wasn't right. Do you feel that? Nergal asked but Edric didn't have time to respond as a figure strolled out in front of him at the exit of the alley. Edric looked down the alley watching the figure his muscles tense though they refused to move, Damn it! What the hell? he roared mentally as even his voice refused to work. The figure drew closer it's eyes beginning to glow before with speed that out stripped the fastest sprinter alive the person rushed at him. It happened faster than Edric thought possible one moment he was sure he was dead the next he was gently landing on his feet. Edric felt like he was in shock how the hell did he just spring wings?! The attacker seemed just as shocked as he was but that soon faded as again it charged at Edric who had yet to turn around. Pay attention! he heard Nergal shout in his head as Edric jumped once more the wings propelling him higher than the roof. Wind whistled in his ears as the rush of excitement filled Edric he felt alive more than ever before his mismatched eyes glowed with a bright green light. All to soon however his excitement faded as his attacker leaped at him. Attack! Nergal shouted and Edric tried to think of a way how to. As if bidden by his thoughts a tentacle slithered down his arm and formed itself into a saber a pair of green eyes with slits for pupils on either side of the guard. His attacker was almost on him by the time he swung the strange weapon. There was no way the creature could dodge the swipe of the blade removed it's head. It was over and Edric was examining himself he looked at his hands as both the wings and weapon slithered back into him. The creature had left a small crater when it had leaped at him the concrete cracked and broken, the creature had landed on the top of the fire escape while it's head bounced across the roof before stopping just few steps from the edge. What the fuck am I? Edric asked the empty alley the adrenaline rush gone his mind reeled with thoughts, questions and most powerful was fear and panic what ever attacked him had not been human either. He hurried home and slipped into his apartment, he looked into the Mirror jumped in shock as he caught site of himself in the front hall mirror his grey eye once as normal as the other had a cat like slit but looking closer he saw it change back to normal. Normal, riiiiight. Nergal chuckled. Edric sat down on his couch and just passed out with nothing left driving him to stay awake.
