Prologue: I coughed, glaring at him, I could feel the power surging through, but I held it in, knowing the consequences that come along with using it. He smirked. “What are you gonna do now, little weakling?” That was it for me. “I’ll show you,” I growl, and the transformation began. I turned stronger, felt my arms surge with newfound power, but it also felt painful as heck. But it was worth it right now. His once smug face turned into pure fear, as he examined my now black eyes. Chapter one: “So, how you doing Emma?” Ari asked me, shutting her locker beside me. “Fine,” I answer, stuffing all the books into the locker. She laughed. “I never know when you’re telling me the truth Em.” I ignored her, knowing she’s trying to ask about the fight, yesterday. She wasn’t there but I bet she heard the rumours, about me and Belle having a rematch tonight. “Look, you don’t have to go there if you don’t want to.” She told me, not really understanding why I was fighting Belle. “Shush.” I told her, yanking her behind a locker. “Ouch! What was that for?” She whisper-hissed as I stuck my head out, looking. It was Belle, who was extremely fit, along with her friends. Ari poked her head out slightly as well. “Woaaaaaaah, you’re fighting her tonight?” She asked me, slightly shocked. I sighed. “Yeah.” “Well good luck!” “What a friend you are.” “I’m just saying good luck.” I rolled my eyes, and went out since Belle was gone. The time went by fast, from going to class to eating lunch and going home. “Byeeeee, good luck later!” Ari called out, heading onto the bus, since she lived far. “Bye!” I shout back, going to walk towards my house. Five hours until the fight. Five hours to train until tonight. Well, more like five hours to get ready to embrace the pain. For explanation, I can turn buff, muscular however the heck you wanna think of it, when I’m in a stressful or dangerous situation. The catch? It hurts. A lot. It also slowly drains down my sanity, that’s why I can’t show to much excitement, it could derail and go into crazy mode. The only person who knows this is Belle, I mean she hasn’t told anyone yet, and I bet it’s because she wants to display the ‘secret’ of my power in some extravagant way. Chapter 2: “Crap,” I mutter under my breath as the weight I was using fell out of my hand. I picked it back up, then laid it back down realising it would be dumb to tire myself out before the fight. After all, I’d rather be awake and energetic while fighting then tired and tense. I did work on my aim though, then went to eat something. The fight was in 2 hours. My brain kept those words on repeat, my heart pounded thinking about it. My doorbell rang. I went to begrudgingly open it, and saw one of Belle’s friends who lived next door. She stuck her tongue out. “Ugh, I don’t know why she’s wasting her time on you of all people, but she said the fight is in the nearest park, dunno the name of it but it’s just around the fried chicken shop. She said to beware of the ‘crowd’, I doubt anyone’s coming to see anything other than you getting your butt kicked, but hey, maybe you’ll get supporters! Who will be thoroughly disappointed that is, after all-” I cut her off, shutting the door. She shouted, but it was muffled, and I sighed, laying against the door. Chapter 3: It was time for the fight, my legs shook as I walked towards the park. The power already wanted to escape with the pressure and stress, but I kept it stuffed inside. I walked towards the entrance, every breath a huge gust. The sky darkened with shades of pink fading to black or brown. Belle was there, laughing, cackling even with her friends. Yvette was there though, she was a friend of mine, so she’ll be here to support me. Or watch me fail, and turn into a beast. Either one. “Come on, scaredy cat, it’d time to fight.” She sneered. I went there slowly. Her face looked down at mines, circling me, then she lunged ruthlessly, growling. I dodged, just in time, the power was begging to escape as I leaped and attempted a frail scratch. “DOWN!” Yvette screamed, and Belle leaped again, from behind me, and dropped me down, she seized the opportunity and tried to beat me up, but it was to late, the power had now leaked through, pain surging through my body and eyes as I felt strength return to me. “THATS IT.” I shout, getting up with the power. I was about to take revenge, until I noticed everybody around us was knocked out. And so was Belle. “What the?-” Somebody behind me knocked the behind of my head with a pan, rendering me unconscious. Chapter 4: “Wake up idiot.” Belle snarled, kicking my shin. We were both tied up to chairs, in a dark room. “WHAT THE HELL HAPPENED-”I yell, trying to get out. “I don’t know but you went beast mode, and somebody sped around knocking us all out.” She explained.
Continuing): “Damn.” I murmur. “It’s really weird. Like REALLY weird, your eyes turned black, and you went from tiny, to hugeeee! Also you looked feral, like a wolf or something. I dunno.” She said. “Why they gotta tighten the dang rope for? It’s already bad enough fitted, but this is chocking level tight.” She grumbled, tugging on the hemp rope holding her to the chair. She looked at me. “Wait. You can turn buff, right?” “Yeah?…” I knew where this would go. “Then turn buff and bust us outta here!” She said, excited. “It doesn’t work that way.” Well it kind of did since I felt like I could let the power escape, but my sanity is to precious. “Um, why?” “Because the more I turn buff, the more I go insane. Literally.” “Well, sanity is worth sacrificing at this moment.” She pointed out. “…” I sighed. The power was poking, prodding at dangerous places. Should I let it out? Yes. So I did. “OW.” I grumble, as the pain surged again, and the strength came back, and pushed against the rough rope. I growled, and the rope broke from the pressure, but I won’t. My eyes switched to a dark black, and I ripped off the ropes from Belle. A guy appeared. Him. He’s the one who caused it. I shout and charge towards him, and lunged, punching him, smacking him up. After I managed to render him unconscious, I grabbed Belle, almost hitting her, forgetting what and what not to hit in the frenzy, jumping out of the van by breaking the back, and escaped. Chapter 5, the extra: A few years later, I was struggling with the fact that I’m partially insane after that, but me and Belle were sorta friends after that. All I know is I don’t wanna do that again. The power is always calling now, begging to be used and I have to constantly fight it. But hey, it’s pretty much a happily ever after. hello, this is Emma’a mother. We had no idea she could turn ‘buff’ and ‘insane’ but she got into a really big fight. Huge one. Turned into a giant buff creature with black eyes which was no longer my daughter, she wouldn’t understand anything. She was a feral beast. We are currently trying to cure herd But it’s not working. It started with somebody kicking her, then punching her and eventually it led upto a huge fight, we are trying to find the missing person who started the fight. (To remember): Her name’s Emma, it can be either in a situation where she’s getting bullied, or she’s been trapped, or she’s just angry. Her eyes turn black when she gets buff and it hurts. (How her power works is basically she can change how muscular she is (normally she’s skinny) but the buffer she gets, the more insane she goes
