Chapter 2 Symbiosis
(The Next day)
Anna was examined again by the doctor so they could make extra sure she was alright. Once again nothing unusual was found so Anna was just given some pain meds in case she had an unexpected headache. Anna thanked the nurses and doctors for the help and headed back to boarding school.
"Well that day was pretty interesting, but at least I wasn't seriously injured by that meteorite." Anna said to herself as she walked to school.
As Anna was walking a figure started walking up behind her which turned into a run. The figure then tried to Karate chop Anna on the shoulder but her arm stopped it before it made contact with her. Anna froze when she felt herself catching someone, so she turned around and saw it was her Karate club captain.
"Oh my god! Sebastian! I didn't know you were there?!" Anna screamed in surprise when she saw Sebastian.
"Oh don't play that with me, you knew I was gonna surprise attack you! I just wanted to see if you still got your skills after missing training for two weeks." Sebastian explained.
"Um I really didn't know you were there, my arm kinda just seemingly moved on its own." Anna explained.
"HA! Yeah it did, anyway how are you doing? The accident with the meteorite was all over the news and I heard you were injured in the accident." Sebastian explained.
"Oh I'm fine, aside from hitting my head on a rock I'm good... I think my body has kinda been feeling a little numb but I'm mostly good." Anna explained.
"That's good to hear, I do hope you're still able to fight when we have a meeting tomorrow!" Sebastian explained as he wrapped his arm around Anna's neck and noggied her.
"Ah! HAaha! I hope the others won't give me a hard time for missing out!" Anna laughed at her friend's actions.
Sebastian then let go of Anna and the two soon got to the school right before the bell rang. After entering the building Sebastian headed off to his first class of the day. Anna smiled and made her way to her first class of the day.
"Hey Anna! You're back and alright!" Anna heard Vincent call out.
She turned around and saw him walking up to her, she smiled when she saw him.
"Hey Vince yeah I am, sorry about being gone for so long, I kinda got into a little bit of an accident." Anna explained.
"Yeah I heard, also It's not your fault, after all you didn't plan on almost getting hit by a meteor." Vincent explained.
"No I didn't, but I'm glad I'm doing better and I'm back for school. Did anything interesting happen while I was gone?" Anna asked.
"Not really, aside from that Meteor that was about all the excitement, well unless you count you having to do extra work to catch up with everyone from while you were gone." Vincent stated.
'Oh yeah that's gonna suck, but it has to be done.' Anna thought to herself.
"Um Anna, why are you touching my face?" Vincent asked.
Anna looked and to her shock she was indeed touching Vincent's face. Her eyes widened and Anna pulled away embarrassed by her actions.
"Oh my god! Vince I'm so sorry! I don't know why I was doing that!" Anna exclaimed, embarrassed by her unknowing action.
"It's cool but let's get to class before the teacher writes us up." Vincent explained.
"Oh yeah lets go! I don't want to miss any more than I already have!" Anna exclaimed.
The two then ran to their class, thankfully they soon arrived on time for roll call. When they came into the classroom the teacher smiled when she saw them and had them take their seats. After roll call was done the teacher started the lesson (which was biology).
As the class went on Anna started to suddenly feel sleepy and almost fell asleep till someone tapped her.
"Hey Anna! If you fall asleep Miss, C won't be happy." A classmate whispered to Anna.
"Oh my bad! Thanks!" Anna thanked the classmate who prevented her from getting in trouble.
'Man why do I feel so sleepy? Is it the medicine I was on? Na that can't be it, or maybe it is.' Anna thought to herself.
"It's not the medicine, it's the chemical I'm emitting to prevent you from feeling pain while I recognize your internal structure." Anna heard a male voice whisper.
She shot up and looked around for any sign of the voice, however she couldn't find it.
'What in the world was that?!' Anna asked herself.
"Hey Anna!" Anna heard a voice say.
She looked up and was shocked to see Miss C standing next to her desk.
"Oh um hey Miss C." Anna said.
Miss C just smiled and said "Anna I know you haven't been here in a while but you know your phone is not allowed to be out during class." Miss C then pulled Anna's phone out from under the desk.
Anna saw that on her phone there was an image of a mannequin that showed the internal structure of the human body.
"Oh I'm so sorry! I thought it was off!" Anna exclaimed, surprised by her phone being on.
"I don't want to hear it, just keep it off, I want it to be on your desk in my view so I can make sure that you won't use it again. However, if I catch you using it again It'll be confiscated till the end of class." Miss C explained.
"A-Alright! Again so sorry!" Anna exclaimed embarrassed as she turned her phone off and put it on her desk.
Miss C smiled and went back up to the black board to continue on with the class. The day passed like nothing, and now Anna was in the cafeteria getting some lunch.
"Hey Anna, how are you feeling?" Anna heard a girl ask.
She turned around and saw one of her friends coming up to her.
"Hey Shelly, I'm doing alright, I'm feeling pretty tired but aside from that I'm good." Anna said.
"That's good I was pretty worried about you when I heard about what happened." Shelly explained.
"Well I didn't die so I'm good, and thanks for worrying about me." Anna said.
"Hey, no need to thank me! We're friends after all I'm meant to worry about you!" Shelly explained.
Anna smiled and grabbed a tray and started grabbing some food, she felt pretty hungry so she got a good amount of food. After getting enough food and a box of milk Anna took a seat at her usual table. Once she was seated she started eating her food, as she ate Shelly and Vincent sat down at the same table.
"Hey Anna, I hope you don't mind us sitting here with you." Vincent said.
"No I don't mind at all, I normally eat alone so It's good to have company." Anna explained.
"Yeah well we thought you could use some company." Shelly explained.
Anna smiled at that and continued on eating, however as she ate she felt someone tapping her on the back. She turned around and saw another girl standing right behind her with an angry look on her face.
"Hey Anna, let's talk for a bit." The girl said.
"Um okay? I'll be right back guys." Anna said.
She then got up and followed the girl into a private area outside of the cafeteria.
"Hey Anna, don't think about doing anything with Vince." The girl stated.
"Um, what are you talking about?" Anna asked.
"You know what I'm talking about! I've had a crush on him since middle school so stay away from him! I know you like him so I'm letting you know that you need to stay away from him!" The girl aggressively stated.
"L-listen it'll be up to him on who he likes alright! I won't try and be with him if he doesn't see me that way!" Anna said, trying to pacify the girl.
However the girl only got more angry and she tried to attack Anna. Anna however stopped her attack and swiftly sweep her legs, and before she hit the ground, Anna kicked her hard. The girl flew back a bit before she hit the ground, and she looked up at Anna with fear.
She backed away before getting up and running away as she felt like Anna would kick her but if she tried to fight any more.
Anna meanwhile stood there in total shock at what just happened, as her body seemingly moved on its own. Normally she wouldn't be so aggressive if someone tried to attack her but her body seemingly acted all on its own.
"What in the world is going on with me?" Anna asked herself.
"My body has felt like it's been moving all on its own today, ugh I better get some rest after classes are done." Anna said before heading back into the cafeteria to finish her lunch.
Later on the school day ended and Anna made her way to her dorm room to rest.
"Hey Anna! I want to ask you something!" Anna heard Vincent ask.
She turned around and saw him standing not too far away from her, she wondered what Vincent had to ask.
"You know Anna, I've always admired you since you've joined this school. I noticed that you've always volunteered to help with all the charity events and you're really good at karate. You've even won a few awards in some of the matches you've been in. I must say you've really impressed me with your skills and knowledge." Vincent explained.
"Oh Um... thanks. That's very nice of you to say Vince." Anna said while blushing.
"Hehe, well I also wanted to ask, this Saturday you wanna go out for Pancakes?" Vincent asked.
"Huh? Are you asking me out on a date?" Anna asked.
"Well only if you'll accept." Vincent stated.
Anna smiled brightly and said "Then yes I'll go! I-I've always had a crush on you so It makes me incredibly happy to hear that you like me back!" Anna exclaimed happily as the boy she liked liked her back.
"Hehe I'm happy you like me too, Anna, I'll see you then, and get plenty of rest. You're gonna need it for when you make up for all the work you missed, but be grateful you didn't miss any tests." Vincent explained.
"Me too, I'll see you then Vince!" Anna called out as Vincent walked away.
Anna then walked into her dorm room and saw that her roommate was nowhere to be seen. Anna got curious as her roommate was normally back before her, however she saw that there was a note on her bed.
So she walked up to her bed and took the note of who it was from. She read the name and realized that it was from her room mate. So she opened it to see what it had written on it, and she hoped it would explain where she was.
The note read:
"Hey Anna, I hope you feel better when you're reading this. Sorry I'm not at the school, I had to go home as a relative of mine had passed away so I'm not going to be back in school for the week. I did buy you some of your favorite snacks for when you got back, I hope you like them!
XOXO Sahara."
Anna smiled after she finished reading the note, as Sahara always got her something she liked whenever she wasn't well. She felt lucky to have such an amazing roommate and friend. Anna folded the note back up and put it on her dresser, she then looked under her bed and found the snacks Sahara had bought for her.
"Hehe I knew they'd be down here, Sahara always hides them here to make sure none of her friends try to eat them when I'm out." Anna said to herself as she got out the snacks.
She put them on the bed and then got out of her home work. Once Anna got her things all organized she started doing her homework while eating.
"Ah nothing like having snacks while doing homework. Of course I have some extra work to do as I missed two weeks of school." Anna said to herself.
"Hehe sorry for making you miss so much of school." Anna heard a male voice say.
"Huh?! Who said that! Where are you?!" Anna asked, feeling scared of the sudden male voice.
"I'm down here! Ugh Move your shirt out of the way, it's making it hard for me to move!" The voice said.
Anna in a panic of what was going on shot up out of her bed and ran into the bathroom at once. She slammed her hands down on the bathroom sink and looked into the mirror. Shakely Anna grabbed the bottom of her shirt and pulled it up over her head to see what was going on. When she pulled her shirt off she froze in place by what she saw.
On her chest in between her breasts was the same neon green Blob she now remembers seeing on that day.
"Hello It's nice to finally talk to you in private I'm-AHHH!" The blob was interrupted when Anna screamed at the top of her lungs.
In panic of other humans rushing in to see what was going on The blob formed an extra limb and wrapped it around Anna's mouth to keep her quiet.
"Shh! Kid, be quiet! I can't have others seeing me and freaking out! I've never been on this planet before but from what I've seen in your memories your kind will find me scary. Not only that but from what I can understand from your knowledge as well your government will also try to experiment on us and I can't have that happening. I will let you go but promise me this, you won't scream alright?" The blob asked.
Anna just nodded her head with visible tears of fear in her eyes as she had no clue on what the hell was going on. The blob relaxed and uncovered Anna's mouth, before reemerging its tentacle with its body.
"Alright now as I was saying, my name is Zinsu and I'm a Plavacack and I merged myself with your body and internal systems after my previous symbiosis friend died in battle. I'm sorry for scaring you when we first met. It's just that I needed to switch to a new body after the previous one died as they could try to find me and this planet." Zinsu explained.
"Um Okay.. but wait what do you even mean by any of that?!" Anna asked, clearly confused.
"Well I merged with your DNA and physical structure, I also had to merge some of my own origins with your own. I've also merged some of our systems together and altered around some bits of your body." Zinsu explained.
"Wait what?! You did what!" Anna asked both surprised and unsettled by this.
"I've merged some of our systems with one another. Systems such as Digestive, respiratory, nervous, Circulatory , nervous, immune, and Muscular systems. Thankfully I don't have a reproductive system so you can still have children normally. That is because my kind are made from pods so we don't have families aside from pod siblings." Zinsu explained.
"Ugh! That is so messed up! But wait, how did the doctor never notice that and how did I never notice?" Anna asked, confused.
"Well first of all the scanners they used were unable to detect me as they were made only for your kind. As for how you didn't feel any of it, it's simply because I was putting out a chemical in your body that prevented you from feeling anything. If I hadn't then you would've been in extreme amounts of Pain as the process isn't too nice." Zinsu explained.
"Oh well thanks for that." Anna said sarcastically.
"Anytime, I also had to learn a lot about the human body as it's very different from any other species I've been merged with." Zinsu stated.
"Well what the hell are you some kind of Parasite?" Anna asked angrily.
"Pardon me! I'm not a parasite, we're in what you Humans call a symbiotic relationship." Zinsu said, obviously offended by being called a parasite.
"Oh really? Then how do we both benefit from this relationship Huh?" Anna angrily asked, clearly annoyed with what Zinsu had done without her permission.
"Well first of all you allow me to stay alive as my species are unable to live for very long without a host. Meanwhile your body is stronger, fast, and better than before. Remember how that girl tried to beat you up earlier today, I helped you defend yourself by using your new extra strength. Together we benefit each other as your body is now much stronger than it was before, and I get to live longer." Zinsu explained.
"Okay that's a fair point! But I never agreed to this! And I want you out of my body now!" Anna stated angrily.
"I'm sorry but that's not possible as I've already merged entirely with your body. If I was removed now then we both would die, I'm sorry but that's how my species works." Zinsu explained.
When Anna heard that she felt a bit of herself die on the inside, as she learned that this alien thing was now merged with her till she died. She couldn't believe any of this was happening to her, just about two weeks ago her life was normal.
Now she had some alien thing merged within her body and it had merged its own systems with her own. She didn't even want to think how their digestive systems were merged now as it felt like it could be super gross.
"Ugh! I can't believe this is happening to me! I have some freakish alien thing merge in my body that's so gross!" Anna exclaimed angrily.
"Hey don't be so upset this isn't as bad as you think it is, plus you're going to need me when "they" come. After all, when they come we'll need to work together to save your planet and the rest of the galaxy." Zinsu explained.
"Wait what! What the hell do you mean by that?!" Anna was concerned by what Zinsu had said.
"You'll find out soon, but for now I need to rest as I've been working restlessly to merge with you. I'll be back once I'm done sleeping. However I would like to do more research on earth as I am very curious to learn more about the planet and the species living on here." Zinsu explained.
"Oh no! We're not done here?! Don't you dare try and leave this conversation!" Anna exclaimed angrily.
However Zinsu didn't listen to her and merged back in her chest and disappeared from view. Once Zinsu was gone Anna stood there staring at the area on her chest where he was not too long ago.
"Mom dad can you see this? I've just become the home of a god fucking dam aline!" Anna angrily said as she processed what just happened.
She felt like things in her life were going to get very weird and crazy from here on out. While she was angry at Zinsu for what he did without her consent, she was also worried about what he meant by "Them". Whatever he meant she felt like it wasn't good as the way he said it made it sound like something bad was coming.
