A strange creature sat in a G.P’s office, he was roughly lizard like, he had the head of a large lizard, maybe a komodo dragon, but his skin was a opaque blue, it was easy to see the veins and muscles beneath his skin. They were also blue tinted. His other striking physical difference to a human was that he had a large powerful muscle bound tail, like that of a crocodile, and It packed a punch strong enough to crack a mans skull, and leave huge dents in steel objects, such as the door he had smashed breaking in here. The office was madden and over cleaned with the strong stench of antiseptic, it was lit by one strong light bulb, that eliminated most shadows in the room, making the creature feel insecure, frightened even, but not half as frightened as the poor G.P who was shrinking into his chair for fear of the human like monster of his nightmares sitting across the table from here.
“Me Skree, me mean no harm, me just want help.” The creature spoke in a deep voice, it was primitive but also oddly soothing for the G.P who had started listening intently, surprised the being could talk. “Me is sorry for breaking in here, but me had to creep in so you would not notice me and call help.”
The G.P broke in there. “How can you talk, what are you some kind of alien.” He said letting his imagination run wild
“No, I is Skree, I is once human, now I is me.” Skree stated scornfully as if it was totally obvious and that the G.P standing before him was a moron.
“If you were once human then how did you get like this?” Questioned the G.P, sceptical of what the thing had said.
“Me not remember much, me celebrate me sixteenth birthday, then me get taken away to clean place on my way to school...”
“What do you mean by clean place.” Inquired the G.P
“Me means a clean place, with huge tanks. Many man things in there, some like me, some like you, they sleep, me never sleep, me put into tank, acid, burn my skin, all gone. Put out of acid after a few months. Me not eat during this time, me not know how I survive all this. Me then put in water for five year as my skin regrows.
Me is unconscious for a long time, over a three years, methinks me comes like the others in the tanks. An earth quake hits, and me wake up. Hole in me tank, hole in others tanks, but most others still asleep… Me hopes they sleeped anyway. Me look around room. There only one exit, a big metal door. Me can’t knock it down, me knows this, but me trys anyways. Eventually doctor comes. Me knock him out as he comes through big door. Me cant quite ‘member how but I take his key card as well, and me run like I have all the demons of hell after me. Me come to electric fence, and jump it, me burns myself badly, but me heal fast so me is okay. Me need help though, me want to be human… not to be stuck in this body.”
“So its true that doctors have been working on the human genome for quite sometime.” Speculated the doctor thinking out loud. “Well I regret that I do not know enough on this subject you would have to find an expert on these things, and it sounds to me like the only experts in this field are the men that made you like this, some how I doubt that they would be hugely sympathetic towards your cause.”
Skree looked sad, but he knew that what the G.P had said was true, in fact he had been expecting the doctor to say something along these likes, but it sill did sadden him to hear the verdict.
“Thank you for your time, me leave now.” Said Skree turning to leave
a doctor in a pearly white lab coat sat on a table marking paper work, he worked for the neogenetics company future plan, the one that created Skree. There had been a large amount of paper work for him to do after the earth quake, the pods that the subjects had been in had to be replaced, also there had been a few deaths and one escapee, he was joined by a man who wasn’t a doctor. He carried a shiny silver magnum in one hand, and a strange gun looking device in the other. It looked like a gun in all ways except one, it was not very hollow, and it had a dish on top, to send out and pick up waves.
“The subject Michael Crawly, also know as Aquillium, and know to himself as Skree has been found. He is in a hospital, talking to a doctor. My advise would be to kill him and dispose of the body.” Said the gun man. He had a smooth confident voice, it was very persuasive.
“Do what you must.” Whispered the doctor. “It is sad that we must eliminate one with so much potential.” The doctor handed the man some of Skree’s blood grimly, and watched as the man loaded it into his gun and fired it. Nothing visible happened.
“The deed is done.” Said the man regardless of the fact that there was nothing visible, he had used this gun enough times to know that seeing something didn’t mean it happened and not seeing someone didn’t mean it didn’t.
Skree’s body was racked with spasms as a high voltage electrical wave hit him, probing at him over and over again. He spasmed wildly across the floor, as the doctor stared on in confusion. In one giant spasm his tail wiped out and hit the doctor in the temples Cracking his skull and killing him instantly. But as quickly as it started the spasms left. Skree left quickly, sad and confused.
“Damn.” Yelled the man. “We shorted out his tracker chip, lets hope he is dead"
