Remington Leith | Oneshot

Change

Evie paced back and forth in her room, her mind a whirlwind of concern and confusion. Remington, her best friend since childhood, had been acting strangely lately. He was distant, his once vibrant personality now shrouded in an air of secrecy. Something was off, and Evie couldn't shake the feeling that she needed to confront him about it.

Gathering her courage, Evie made her way to Remington's house. She knocked on the door, heart pounding in her chest, unsure of what she would find on the other side. Remington opened the door, his eyes avoiding hers.

"Can we talk?" Evie asked, her voice trembling slightly.

Remington hesitated before nodding, stepping aside to let her in. They settled in the living room, an uncomfortable silence hanging in the air.

"What's going on, Rem?" Evie finally asked, unable to contain her worry any longer.

Remington sighed, running a hand through his hair. "I...I don't know how to explain it," he began, his voice barely above a whisper. "But I'm not...I'm not human anymore."

Evie's heart skipped a beat, her mind struggling to process his words. Not human? What did that even mean? Fear clawed at her insides, but she pushed it aside, focusing on her friend.

"What happened?" she asked softly, reaching out to grasp his hand in reassurance.

Remington looked down, unable to meet her gaze. He recounted the events that had led to his transformation, his words tumbling out in a rush of fear and confusion. Evie listened intently, her heart breaking for her friend.

Despite the shock of Remington's revelation, Evie's loyalty remained steadfast. She would stand by him, no matter what.

In the days that followed, Evie and Remington navigated their new reality together. Remington's transformation was still a mystery, but they refused to let fear drive them apart. Instead, they leaned on each other for support, their bond growing stronger with each passing day.

Together, they researched Remington's condition, scouring books and the internet for any clue that might help them understand what was happening. They found stories of others like Remington, beings who were no longer fully human but something else entirely. It was a lot to take in, but Evie refused to let it overwhelm her.

As they delved deeper into their research, they discovered that Remington's transformation had unlocked hidden abilities within him. He could see things others couldn't, sense emotions with uncanny accuracy, and move with a speed and grace that bordered on the supernatural.

At first, Remington was hesitant to embrace these newfound powers, afraid of what they might mean. But with Evie's encouragement, he began to see them not as a curse, but as a gift. Together, they practiced honing his abilities, exploring the extent of what he could do.

As they grew more comfortable with Remington's transformation, Evie and Remington decided it was time to venture out into the world beyond their small town. They packed their bags and set off on a journey of discovery, eager to see what else was out there.

Their travels took them to bustling cities and remote wilderness alike, each new experience bringing them closer together. They faced challenges along the way, encountering beings who were wary of Remington's otherworldly nature. But through it all, they stood united, facing the unknown with unwavering support for each other.

Along the way, they met others like Remington, beings who had undergone their own transformations and were learning to navigate their new identities. They shared stories and experiences, finding solace in the knowledge that they were not alone.

As they journeyed onward, Evie and Remington realized that their friendship was stronger than ever. They had faced the darkness together and emerged on the other side, ready to embrace whatever the future held.

Together, they would continue to explore the mysteries of the world, facing each new challenge with courage and determination. For Evie and Remington, the journey was just beginning. And they couldn't wait to see where it would take them.
