Anyone 

Anyone Else

“You do not talk to yourself that way,” I said sharply as I shifted my face to look like him, I shifted my whole being into his image as he stared wide eyed and in his voice and native tongue I said “where is your god now Raza?”

Now I could see panic in his eyes so I changed again this time into something he feared from his childhood. My skin lost its colour and my eyes changed to deep black pools, he stared transfixed as my mouth widened and I made my teeth grow and sharpen. He looked at my hands and as I held them up they became talons with long razor sharp nails. I scratched them across the desk cutting ten deep groves in the polished wood, he feared vampires because at six years old he’d watched some old Vincent Price films that had really scared him.

He was near to panicking as he looked wildly around the room and tried to pull his hands through the steel handcuffs that held him locked to the chair. I changed back to me and smiled then asked “who is Izz al Din?”

I saw a blur and felt a rush of air as something whizzed past my face. Spinning around I saw two men on the street corner thirty yards away reloading their tranquilizer guns as they watched us. Laeeq fell forward unconscious with a dart in his shoulder so I shifted my shape becoming the stone man as walked towards the soldiers with guns, Giles Richards again.

They both aimed and fired again but both of the darts bounced off of my rock like body as I marched towards them. The man on the left was rapidly trying to re-load his weapon as I approached. Using the back of my left hand batted him away like a fly, he flew back and left through a boarded up shop window.

Giles sneered at me a second before I grabbed him by his throat. Lifting him up as I shifted into a seven foot tall Minotaur from Greek legend, with a Bulls head and human body, I instantly knew how he tracked me and didn't need to say anything. I tossed him back and slightly to the right so he banged his head onto the boarded up front door to the same shop his unlucky colleague went through. As he collapsed unconscious I took his radio before going back to help Laeeq.
