The rumbling of cars, the pattering of footsteps...the chatter of people. All-too familiar sounds for the creature lurking in the shadows, alwas avoiding those in open. The hybrid, Lucien, had lived alone on the street for as long as he could remember. Of course, he never really looked out for charity. In fact, he always ran away from it. He didn’t know why he ran, it was just a deeply ingrained instinct at this point. Maybe he was taught to at a young age, or mabe it was just his way of life. Either way, he didn’t care. People always seemed interested in him...too interested, actually. The times when he did leave his hidden shelter, he always caught the attention of the locals.Sometimes it was because of his size orhis horns. But sometimes, people would chase him for reasons he didn’t understand. Those people would give chase. With guns, tasers, nets, rope...anything they could capture him with. Needless to say, Lucien would easily lose those people. He was always stronger, always faster.
Lately, however, Lucien found himself slowing down. Tasks that seemed so easy to him were suddenly requiring more effort. Running from the peskyhumans were suddenly tiresome. He could feel himself growing weaker. Even worse, the food he ate stopped being satisfied. Needess to say, he was confused. The hybrid crouched down behind a dumpster, hiding from the people as usual. The creature clutched its stomach s it growled. He was hungry, but he couldn’t satisfy himself. Looking around the dumpster, the creature stood up. Standing about 8ft tall, Lucien stood well above the dumpster. Raisng the lid, he peered inside to see if there was anything edible. After only a few seconds, the creature scooped a small muffin. Chocolate chip? The creature sniffed the muffin. Chocolate chip. Lowering the lid, the creature cruched again. He cringed when a horn rubbed against the dumpster, spawning a screeching noise. He crouched lower as he quickly wolfed down the muffin. His stomach growled again. He hissed. He had to find the source of the problem, or he would eventually grow to weak to defend himself.
