iZombie ( Episode 2 )

     I ran and felt my hair get shorter, my running skills were dying, and my eye was back to normal. I stopped and looked behind me, the hospital was far away. I looked at what street I was at, the right one.  It was CherryIsle Rd, that's the company's name as well. I walked to the left of the street with my hands in my pocket. I looked for my phone which was in my back pocket, I took it out and called my step sister.

" Hello?" She answered

" Chika-kun, it's me Kotaka. I'm on my way to your building." I say

" Kotaka, why?" She asked

" I'm lost and have nowhere to go," I confirm with her, hoping she will let me stay.

" Okay, I'm on the fourth floor. Remember that," She laughed and hung up.

That's Chika and me.
Me as in the normal me.

     I walked two more blocks and turned to my right, her building was right there. She worked at home, but she was good at it. I walked up four sets of stairs and reached her door. Her number was 205, how funny is that. I knocked on the door, put it was open. I walked in and saw her living room was a mess, same as her kitchen. I put my hands on my face and hid them from the rest of her house. I walked into her office and saw her face glowed to the computer. I walked over and put my hand on the wall, making her move back a bit in her chair. She was shocked and surprised I came early. I smile and rub her hair, she laughs and continues to work. I walk over to the sofa and jump onto it, I turn the TV on and watch the news. 

" I guess there was another murder," I muttered.

" No kidding, I've been looking it up. It looks like a kid jumped out of a hospital window." She explained

" Really? That's horrible." I try to sound convincing

" Ya, hope they find the kid, they have to be in horrible shape to run off like that." She answered and went back to her report. 

" Yup," I suggest to her

     I turned the TV back off and laid down on the sofa looking up at the ceiling. I looked at my hands and saw my red veins disappearing. I sighed in relief but didn't know how to get them back if I had to fight. But that wouldn't happen, right?
     I couldn't fight the fact that I was actually hungry right now. How can I be hungry, I just ate at the hospital. Or did I? I remember throwing it up, did I not like that food. Well It tastes like slim, what is wrong with me. I felt my hair as it got longer, I looked at the TV screen and saw my right eye turn black.

' I'm hungry for human flesh, but Chika doesn't know this about me.' I thought and couldn't think of what to do.

" Hey Chika, I'm heading out. I'm going to get something to eat." I yelled out
" Sure thing, be back soon." She shouted back at me.

     I ran out of the room and down the stairs, people were looking at me. I closed my eyes and tried to calm down, I looked in my phone and saw my eye was back to normal. But my clothes and hair were the same. I didn't know how I did that but I ran as fast I could to my favorite diner down the street. I jumped over cars and moved past several people. I wanted to eat food. I got to the diner and slowly entered, it was silent inside.

" Hello, anyone here," I called out.
" One second please. I'll be right there." A girl said

     She walked out of the back and I could see her expression, all the same, like I was a monster. She smiled and laughed at me.

" You seem quite new at this kind of transforming thing, don't you." She asked
" How do you now, are you one of them."
" But don't tell my boss, they all don't know I'm one. The names Hakihu, nice to meet you. . . ."

This is Hakihu, in human form.

" Oh, right. The names Kotaka." I say and smile back at her
" Kotaka, that's an interesting name for a boy, my mother almost named me that." She laughed
" Are you kidding me, I thought I had a boy name." I start to laugh
" I know right, and I thought I had a guys name." She stops mid way

     She looks at me and blushes, she wasn't in her izombie form. But she gave me a cup of coffee, she sat down next to me and began to talk. She told me how she was lost, and how the man who owns this place saved her life when she was young. I tell her everything I know, she knows who the women was that was chasing me.
     She was wearing the most beautifulest dress I had ever seen, at least for a waitresses outfit. Her hair was different colors, purple at the roots, then dark brown, light brown, lastly blond. She seemed different too, she wasn't the normal type either.

" I'm sorry to keep you here so long." She muttered
" No, it's fine. I feel better that I know there's someone else like me around here. I'll be coming back soon." I say and wave my hand good-bye.
" Thank's Kotaka, I'll remember you." She smiles and goes back to work.

     I walk out of the diner and change back to my human form, I was calm now. I go to the supermarket and get some pasta and meatballs. Chika will love this for dinner, it was our favorite when we were young.
