Survivor (Zarry Hybrid AU)

Zayn

Zayn quickly grabbed the alarm clock on his bedside table and threw it against the wall as soon as he heard it go off. When he realised the crash didn't make it go off, he cursed out loud then slowly got up to shut off the little devil. As you can tell, Zayn isn't a morning person, especially with that annoying high pitched beeping waking him up every morning and almost bursting his eardrums out because of his sensitive hearing. But he needs it since he loves sleep and will never get out of his warm bed if has the choice.

He got up from the floor, still a bit groggy, and placed the clock back on the table. He rubbed his eyes and quickly grabbed some clothes to be ready after the shower, which he absolutely hates. He doesn't mind water on his body, but his face, hair, and ears are the worst part. He went to the bathroom and set the water to the perfect temperature then took off all of his clothes and slowly got in, trying to avoid the water at all costs but still get nice and clean. He cleaned his body with his favourite vanilla scented soap and already felt better. He then put on a brave face and got ready for it. He slowly inched his hair under the water and started cleaning it, holding back a hiss. He quickly finished his hair and face and got out of the shower. He grabbed his towel and started drying himself thoroughly, not a single drop of water left. He dried his hair until it was damp and exited out of the bathroom with a towel around his hips.

He put on his boxers then wrapped his tail around his hips and gently put an athletic wrap around it. It was uncomfortable but he needed to do it. He then put his black jeans and plain white shirt over it. He went back to the bathroom to do his hair since it was finally dry. He fixed his hair up so it would cover his black ears. He preferred this over beanies, they made his ears feel uncomfortable.In case you haven't already guessed, Zayn is a hybrid. A cat hybrid to be exact. He actually thinks he is a tabby. But he's not ashamed of it, he likes to be unique. He wishes he could tell people what he really is but he knows that's not safe. People would try to take him away to experiment, sell, or even do bad things to him. He remembers that the reason he was left here was because of that. Bad people were trying to experiment on him but his father saved him. He doesn't remember much but he does remember that his dad was a good man. He wants to find him but he remembers the promises he made and he has to keep them no matter what it takes.

When he was finished getting ready, he quickly checked under the mattress in the right hand corner like he does every night and morning. He smiled when he felt the small pistol. It should be weird when your happy to hold something that could kill someone but it was the last thing his father gave him. He felt proud of himself that his dad thought he was ready for it. He vowed to himself that he would make his father proud by keeping all of his promises, practically his father's last wishes. His other pistol is in a small shoe box in the back of his closet. He hasn't had to use them but he has had to take someone's life before. It was for his own safety and the people he loves. He wasn't proud of it but he felt no remorse for the terrible people, like he was taught.

~ Flashback (1year ago) ~Zayn walked to the store to grab some milk for jay since she needed it to make a surprise dinner which he was excited for and he also loved milk and was glad that he could get some more since he was the one who practically drained their other cartons. It was pretty late and he hoped that he could get there before the store closed.

When Zayn got to his destination, he was disappointed to see a red lit up closed sign above the doors. He sighed sadly and turned around to start the trip back home. He wrapped his jacket tighter around himself and started walking.

As he neared the last of the stores to get to his neighborhood, he suddenly felt a strange feeling and felt like eyes were on him. He looked all around him and only saw a teenage couple walking on the opposite side of the street. He put his hands in his pockets to keep them warm and kept walking.
