"So Dallas you know who cares about you so much that he helped you?"

"What the fuck you blabbing about over there?"

"Remember Ryder Hale?"

"No I don't think about my best friend everyday I'm apart from him." You could hear the sacasim thrown into that one sentence.

"So you didn't think about him today?" Ryder looked at his best friend's father then back to his best friend.

"I'm thinking about him right now. You started talking about him with me."

"So do you even still think about me when I'm around you?"

"Yeah. That's like asking me if I think about the pain I'm in at this mome- wait Ryder?"

"I've been in here since the conversation started." He laughed out just sitting down with his also friend.

"How you stupid?"

"Great. How about you bastard?"

"Just dandy."

"Yeah I know. I'm in a lot of pain too."

"How? I'm literally covered on blood because I fell off the damn motorcycle."

"I've been taking a serum and it changes me. I become a . . . a beast."

"What?"

"So I think I'm on either seven or eight. Dr. Carter would know. But they but a new color in my arm every time. It's a serum that amps me up or something. I've been changing since a woman kidnapped me and jammed it into my star tattoo." He looked at Dallas that was literally no longer breathing.

"Dallas breathe!"

"You were kidnapped? They're hurting you and putting colors in your veins? You're a beast?"

"Dallas calm down! I'm fine. It just kinda gives me super powers but not much. I get spikes coming out if my back, new eye colors, fangs now. I'm fine. I'm still the same old Ryder with how'd you say it?"

Dallas looked away then back and smiled.

"Daddy issues."

"Yep that's right!"

"Ryder thank god I found you!" All three men looked at his father.

Dallas grabbed Ryder's leather jacket and held just a little part of it.

"Can we ask for you to leave?" Rodney was his name, Dallas Maverick came from Rodney Maverick.

"I'm taking him with me." Keith took a step forward but looked ag Dallas and backed up.

Ryder made Dallas look at him and he paused.

"You're eyes are yellow or golden." He grabbed his phone and rushed to the camera. When he looked at himself in the screen he placed it and smiled. Fangs glistened and Ryder was even more freaked out.

"So is my son okay?"

"Yeah I'm fine." He put his hand in his hair then paused and moved in slow motion.

"What?"

"I'm not human!"

"Yeah Hell hound and maybe some dog then wolf too." Both boys looked at Rodney who smiled.

"What are you talking about?"

"Look I've had this conversation with a mother and a father correct?"

"No what the hell am I?!"

"Hell hound, dog, wolf, maybe something else."

"Like what?"

"Demon with the hell hound."

"You're still cool but now you're awesome!" He glared at Ryder who covered his mouth.

"That's why you became like that though."

"What are you saying?"

"You changed because Ryder is like a brother to you. You're not gonna let anyone get to him before you."

He looked at Ryder and jumped off the bed. He moved to Keith who had no idea about his past and slammed him against the wall.

"I'm hurt right now. You piss me off. I want you out. Ryder is gonna stay." He let go and Keith nodded.

Soon the sound of feet came to everyone's ears and they all looked at Jackson. Ryder grabbed him before he fell in the floor and lifted him.

"Why did you come?"

"I need someone there."

"Me. I'm taking you home with me." Keith bursted.

Dallas walked over and looked at the boy.

"What's your name?" He asked and smiled.

"Jackson. Who are you?"

"Dallas. This boy's boy I guess you say." Jack laughed a little and looked at Keith and Rodney.

"Look at the happy family!" Rodney bursted and all four looked at him.

"I'm the dad!" Dallas yelled and Ryder pouted.

"You're so mean." He looked from Dallas to Rodney and they just smiled.

"I'll help you with him if you want." Ryder nodded and the three sat down on the hospital bed.
