C15: A Strange Morning
Frost sat up, sweating and panting heavily again. He gritted his teeth as he fought back the stupid memory, causing a growl to escape his throat. Frost froze and looked at his hands to see that his nails were replaced with claws and his skin leathery black with purple veins. He frowned as he did not recognise this form. He stood up slowly as he just felt power flowing through his veins. He staggered to the mirror, before jumping back at the horrific sight.
After getting his composure back, Frost had a closer look at his new form. He brought his face closer to the mirror to confirm that it was lacking skin, exposing the entire skull. He couldn't figure out how his eyes were working, since he didn't have eyeballs either, instead he had purple flickering lights there. Long, hairy fur covered his neck and shoulders, before having the rest of his body covered in this leathery scale skin.
Frost snapped his head in the direction of his door as he heard noises. He felt the power leave his body as he turned back to human. The door opened to reveal Cassie.
"Frost?" Cassie asked as she turned on the lights, before seeing him sitting on the ground, "You okay?"
"No." Frost replied as he shook his head.
"That nightmare again?" Cassie asked as she sat down next to Frost.
"Yeah." Frost answered with a nod.
"It's okay. I'm here for you if you ever need to chat." Cassie said as she hugged him supportively.
"Thank you." Frost said as he rested his head on her shoulder.
Cassie smiled as she supportively rubbed Frost's shoulder. They sat like this for a while, before Cassie got up and went to her bedroom to get ready for school. Frost got up a few moments later, before getting his towel to go take a shower.
Frost locked the bathroom door, before stripping naked and standing in front of the mirror. He turned around and looked into the mirror to check his back. A twelve inch scar ran diagonally across Frosts back, with a weird metal device on the back of his neck. He still didn't know what this device was, maybe he should ask Monica or Rita about it. He sighed before getting into the shower. He took a nice cold shower to relax. He got out, before getting dressed for another day at school.
