Hulk Horan /Book 2 in The Scifi Series (A Niall Horan fanfic)

4- Side effects and Gamma

NIALL's POV(unedited)

My eyes flutter open, and I stand up. But this time, not even a wave of dizziness hits me. I feel healthy. Like as if I have no disease.

I take in my surroundings, and memories flash back from earlier. I almost died! How am I alive?

Even after I touched the light wave, I'm still alive. The whole room looks back to normal, not even a hint of blue is in it. It's perfectly white. Did I inhale all of that?

I go over to the jammed door. Once I push against it, the door swings open. I gasp, and stare at my hands. They look the same...how is this even possible?

I lightly shut the door, and go up the stairs. It takes no effort whatsoever, and I begin to doubt that I even still have a disease.

Finally, I make it up to my bedroom. I peer out the window, and see the dark sky. It must be early morning. I wasn't out for very long.

I look down to my hands and frown. Maybe this is all just a dream. If it's a dream, nothing would hurt.

My eyes peer at my bedside lamp. I pick it up, and break it onto the night table.

A few of the larger pieces hit my hand. No blood pours out, but my hand fills in pain. This causes me to make a terrifying noise. A roar.

I give myself chills, astonished that I made such a noise. Humans don't make that noise...

"Niall?" I faintly hear Robert call from his room.

I dash over to the lightswitch quickly, then lay myself in bed. My eyes shut, and I pretend to be fast asleep.

I feel the light outside my room, shining against my face as Robert opens the door. My body makes an unusual immediate response, and urges to go after it. But I know it's just a simple lightbulb from a light in the hallway. I force myself to stay still, until the door shuts.

When the door shuts, my eyes flash open. What on earth is going on? I can roar, and now I have an addiction to lights?

It was all too much for my brain. Should I tell Robert? Or would that be dumb? He would probably get angry at me for disobeying him, and lose trust in me.

I decide against it, and keep this a secret for myself. My eyes doze off into sleep, excited for the next day.

****************************

Once I wake up, I run down the stairs quickly. My feet take me to the next stairway, eager to get more blue light. It's almost as if my body has a mind of it's own, desperately wanting these rays.

"Woah, woah Niall. Slow it down. We don't want to over push your heart." Robert requests from the kitchen.

I nod quickly, and continue to go forward. But I'm stopped when he speaks again.

"What's the rush? We always eat breakfast first?" Robert calls out, and my heart clenches.

I slowly turn around. "Yeah, I don't have much of an appetite this morning."

Robert frowns, and folds his arms. "You have to eat." He looks up in thought, then says, "If you want, I can run to a fast food restuarant for your breakfast this time?"

A fake smile overtakes my features, and I give a fast nod of approval. "That sounds great."

He nods, and puts on his coat. "Looks like I'm off to McDonalds then. See ya later, Niall."

I lead him to the door, and watch anxiously until he gets into the car and leaves the area. Then, I speed down the stairs to the gamma room.

I push open the broken door, and sigh when I see that there's no blue light this time. So I go over to the glitched up controls, and turn on some different options, in an effort to get some gamma.
