The New kid

The kid no one knew about

Tom's P.O.V

"Edd?" I rush up to him, my body hesitates to touch him even though it's all I want, he probably hates me. "I-I'm sorry--OOF" Edd and Matt jump on me and we all fall to the floor.

We all laugh, "Tom!" Matt smiles, "I've missed you,"

I mess up his ginger hair, he looks so much older, "I've missed you too."

"It's so good to finally see you," Edd hugs me. I've dreamed of this moment for years but wait something is missing.

"Where's Tord?" I ask. Edd and Matt quickly help me up. Matt bends down to Tords level, he's laid out on the floor.

His leg is wrapped up in a bandage, "T-Thomas?" I kneel next to him, he scoffs when he looks at me. "Knulle" he curses in his foreign language. "Y-You don't listen do you?"

"No sir," I wink. I turn to the boys, "What happened?"

"He was shot and I think he has a concussion. Our ship has a small medical station, I can take him and you two need to figure out what the hell is going on around here. Things are too chaotic just to make everyone stop with a command." Matt explains.

"Someone is on board, I saw a figure shoot, it wasn't you and it wasn't us either. I looked through Tord's papers, neither side said they shot first at the supply run either. I think someone is setting us up. Thier trying to get us to attack each other. The longer we wait the more time they have to do whatever is their trying to do, they're still here, I can smell them. Matt, take care of Tord, Edd try and control your army,"

"And we'll take care of this one," Paul puffs a cigarette behind us. Patryck has Tylers arm slung around him.

"Miss me yet Blue?" Tyler grins.

I walk up to him, "Give me a heart attack like that again and I'll kill you. I'm so glad your okay," I look over the crew, "Okay okay, Matt, you're on Tord, Edd, take care of your side, Paul and Pat, take care of ours."

"Tom, shouldn't you take some soldiers with you?"

"No, they'll slow me down," I quickly check all my equipment and my belt. "I'll see you on the other side." I fly into the air without looking down at them. Something was weird about whoever was doing all this, it was like my monster side sensed something. I couldn't put any of them at risk. My feet grazed the top deck, I silently crawled behind a crate. "Um hey, monster side or whatever you are... I could really use your help right now."

Are we killing someone?

My heart leaped, "I can't believe that worked!"

Talk any louder if you want to be killed.

The deep voice sarcastically grumbled, "I need to find the intruder can you help me or not?"

Allow me to take control. Close your eyes and feel me. Then my eyes will be open.

I concentrate, "Close your eyes and feel me," I repeat. Suddenly, a rush of energy courses through me, my fingers transform into sharp claws, and my body changes. I take off my goggles and notice a purple glow emanating from the crate in front of me.  My vision is filtered through a violet-tinted night vision effect. In the distance, I hear the sounds of soldiers yelling. I approach the main cabin, my ears perked up to detect any movement. I peer inside, a shadowy figure rummaging through drawers with a blue light scanning over documents. The figure eventually moves to another room, giving me an opportunity to sneak in. 

"Don't move." The electronic voice demands. The person is in a pure black suit with a reflective mask covering their face.

"Tell me who you work for and I'll go easy on you." I threatened. They darted toward me, my claws were ready, and all of a sudden they jumped all the way over me. "What the hell?! That's not even possible?!" I growl and run after them, they run outside onto the deck and towards the edge. I grab my gun and shoot as I run, the bullets hit their suit and fall to the floor. If I change to my full form I don't think this ship will support my weight, I'll have to go half to catch up to this guy!
