Chapter 5 - Data Recovery
"Your phone? Oh boy, you must be kidding me. It is in horrible state. What are you going to do with it?", Maria asked, surprised he brought this up.
"What? Did you throw it away? Wait, you didn't leave the room. You have the phone right, just give it to me. I can use it somehow.", Lucas asked again, stretching his hand to take it. Maria took a broken phone from the side, that she had put away, probably because she was going to throw it away.
Lucas took the phone, and he flipped it to the back. He stretched open his fingers, and then curled them back together.
String! A metallic sound came from Lucas' hand. His right hand's index finger hand a claw stretched out.. It was thin, and light glinted on it's side. Lucas took the claw and started carving the phone. It was as if he was disassembling it. Expertly, he took out the back case to reveal the internals of the phone. The moment the back case came off, he retracted the claw immediately. Maria, who was on the side, looked at Lucas with shock. She asked Michael, "How is this man able to use his transformation so expertly? He is only transforming parts of his body, and that too, very expertly."
"Ah, you are too young, so you don't know how to do it. Practice enough, and you will be able to do it as well.", Michael sighed.
"Practice? I am fifty. I have been a werewolf for thirty three years! Do you really think that I did not try it before? Even after this long, I am not able to do something like that.", Maria said, scoffing at Michael's words.
"Just fifty? I was sure that you were older. Well, you are still a child, Maria. Do you really think that it is easy to get to Lucas' stage? To be able to do something like that, you must have decades more, just practicing this. Lucas just had a lot of spare time in his hands. The rest of us are not so lucky. We are burdened by life's problems. We grow old, we take care of the pups.", Michael sighed.
"He doesn't grow old?", Maria asked, her tone growing more and more shocked.
Michael just sighed as he continued to view the spectacle that Lucas was creating without his knowledge. Lucas had taken out most of the parts of his phone, and was taking out something special. He looked at Michael.
"Give me a phone."
Michael immediately looked at Maria.
"Mi-Mine?", she stuttered.
"Well, we can't possibly give him mine. My phone is too important.", Michael smiled as he said.
Maria scoffed as she handed Lucas a phone. It had a pink cover full of stickers, and looked very coquettish. Lucas chuckled when he saw it. He opened the phone, and was obviously stopped by a password protection. He glanced at Maria. She gritted her teeth and snatched the phone back from Lucas. She typed her password in, and gave it back to Lucas.
"Do you guys have a sim pin?", Lucas asked them both.
"A sim pin? Why would we carry something like that?", Maria asked.
"Forget it.", Lucas said as he removed the cover of the phone. He curled his hands again, but this time, a claw did not appear from his fingers. Instead, the nail rose in the shape of a needle.
"How did you do that?", Maria exclaimed. "How can you control even the shape of your claws?"
Lucas did not even glance at Maria, and he slid the needle shaped nail into the sim pin. He took out a memory card that he salvaged from his own phone, and put it in Maria's. All of a sudden, the phone went black.
"My phone...", Maria wailed.
Diing! The phone started back. It opened a series of documents for some reason. Lucas started surfing through the documents, and then got to one final series of numbers. He threw the phone towards Michael.
"Call all of them. Tell them to come here by the next month. I am going to get ready for massacre. I'll need someone to help me clean up the streets.", he said
"Are you sure, Lucas? They will not be happy with this.", Michael warned Lucas.
Lucas rose from his seat, and he walked towards Michael. He went close to Michael's face, and then Lucas' eyes shone. They were bright red. "Do I look like I am asking you? That asshole betrayed me. I gave him a gift, but he dare bare his fangs at me?! I almost lost control. I almost died. My eyes won't turn blue until everyone behind this is beneath the ground.", he said, his voice raising by the second.
Michael whimpered as he fell back from his chair. Maria wanted to move to help, but for some reason, she couldn't. Something about Lucas made her very afraid.
"Now then, where will I be sleeping?", Lucas asked Michael.
