Chapter 2: Before The Bus
It's Monday. The birds are chirping. The sun is up. And the wind blowing in from my window feels like today is going to be a good day.
I have school today like any other kid my age does. I slowly get out of bed to get ready for my day, yawning. It's about 7:15 or so. The bus arrives in about 30 minutes. I still have some time to eat breakfast after I'm done if I hurry.
I look over to my dresser and get out my school uniform. Each student's uniform consists of the same overall colours. The differences the design. They tailor our outfits to fit our unique shifting capabilities. They're stretchy and tight mostly. However some have holes or gaps that allow things like tails, wings, or spikes to protrude.
My uniform has a tail slit, a couple of spike slits, and the wing slits, which isn't all that uncommon really. Despite that, I know when I do shift, I'm nothing like anyone else...
When I shift, I can feel my bones changing, cracking to my new form. It's never the same as when I shifted last. My hybrid form isn't constant like others. This can lead to my uniform being ruined a lot easier. As you can guess, this causes a lot of issues for me.
If I grow horns or spikes, a lump will form in the area. Then they'll be a sharp pain as the point emerges from my skin. Sometimes they curl or bend. Other times they just stay straight.
And if I grow wings? They can range from feathers to flesh to a combo of both. They start out similar to the horns or spikes, little nub like things. And when they burst, I never know what to expect. It could be bat like, bird like, bug like, or something else if I'm unlucky enough.
Argh! Why do I, out of everything I could've been a hybrid with, have to be whatever the heck I am? It doesn't make any sense how o still can't shift consistently. I'm not imprinted yo one thing either. I still shift into whatever living non human thing is closest. This isn't normal. I'm not normal. Why me?
*BEEP-BEEP*
The school bus honks outside. Shit! I start to panic. I was too caught up in my thoughts to get ready on time. I really zoned out there for a while.
I finish putting on my uniform. I run. I run to the door. I quickly freshen up in the restroom and I grab a piece of toast before running to catch the bus. I hope I didn't forget anything in my haste...
