Zombie Attack

Chapter 3: What?

But death didn't come. Even I don't know what happened. The next thing we saw, was the ceiling. I think we fainted.

Marcus was the first to wake up. A couple minutes later, a panicked and jolted up. My breathing was heavy. Then the others awoke as well.

The others had slowly awoken too, but when we all came to our senses, we realised that we had... Changed?

Let's start with myself.

I now had rather large wings and horns, along with a tail. They quite looked like a dragon's. My horns were a shade of muted purple, blending into grey. It was the same with my tail. My wings had the same colours, but the skeletal structure was the purple and the scales that were in between was grey.

Moving to onto Zara now.

She was wearing the same clothing that she had on before, being a black crop-top with a hole where the breastbone was, along with a brown belt with dark grey cargo pants. But she had ears and a tail. Plus, her eye colour had changed from a hazel to a... light green? Her eyes were like those of a panda's, same goes with her tail. She had blotches of white and black over her eyes as well.

Alyssa now.

She was wearing a white and very light grey kimono, but she had a visor over her left eye which seemed to be a shade of pink. The pupil was a lighter version of the same colour, but was shaped like a bunch of sparkles (✨). Her other eye had stayed the same light grey as it were before. On her back, she wore these huge raven's wings, with a wingspan of what seemed to be 5 metres. (I'm Swedish oki?😭 search it up yourself) The feathers were this mesmerising dark and light shades of grey.

Moving onto Denis.

His hair had little tufts that weren't there before. And inside one of these tufts, were two rather large cat's ears. His caramel eyes were now a bright red and his pupils were slits with a white colour to them. He now had an extremely floofy tail attached to his lower back which waved back and forth with ease. It was the same colour as his ears (which were the same colour of his hair) but with a lighter beige on the tip blending smoothly with the colour before it.

It was Marcus' turn now.

His hair changed from a deep brown to midnight black. Reason why I say midnight and not jet black is because it had the slightest bit of navy blue added to it. The tips were dyed a luminous, almost glowing white. Hidden amongst his ruffled and fluffy hair, were two short and stumpy horns like a goat's. His eyes were the same black, but his pupils were (yet again) white and glowing.

Hari finally.

Not much had changed, except from the fact that he had giant black wolf ears atop his head. Along with a black wolf's tail that slowly faded into a dark grey. But apart from that, nothing else had changed.

"You guys look so... different..." I whispered, then looked over to Denis.

The others stared in confusion as my eyes widened.

"Shit man!" I yelled. Running over to him, my footsteps making no noise on the usually creaky floorboards. "The sudden changes have made his mental state feel like shit!"

"Fuck!" Whisper-shouted Marcus, clinging onto his shoulder lightly. "Hey... shhhh..." His voice was calm and at ease.

"How could you be so calm!?" I asked with immense curiosity.

Marcus glared at me, his bright eyes glowing with frustration.

"..."

"Denis can you hear me? If so, can you please look at me?"

His head tilted upwards and his slits were as thin as a sheet of plastic.

"Good" whispered he. "Now I'm gonna place your hand on my chest and I want you to copy my breathing, ok?"

As he said this, he gently let go of one of Denis' shoulders and carefully placed it onto his own chest. And as he did, his eyes seemed to get a little bit more normal-shaped.

"Great Job! Now, tell me only three things you see."

"M-y knee-s, the f-loo-r, a-nd you..r feet."

"You're doing amazing. Now two things you can feel."

"My p-ant...s and my han-ds..."

"Last one! Something you can hear. This can be as many things you want, ok?"

"Mhm... we-ll, my voice, your b-breathing, birds, a-and..."

His eyes squeezed shut. He was clearly disturbed.

"It's okay, you can tell me..." Marcus whispered.

"S-screaming..."

"Holy shit..." he breathed.

"Sorry..." he said as he sat back up. "It's just that... yknow... I'm not exactly... good with change?"

"We understand." Spoke Alyssa.

"Thanks..."
