#2 of Why good people turn bad


Millions of light-years away, on a planet 4 times the size of the earth, a planet floats where a non stop war between furries and demons is held. On it, all you could see is carnage and rubble littering the ground; no one alive could be seen on the surface just the odd explosion every now and then, but what's on the surface isn't what is important, it is what lie beneath that is of interest. 1,000 miles down the planets surface lies a hidden city where the base of the furries are and where residences of the planet currently are being kept from the ravaged world far above. Down here it is quiet and peaceful, furs are walking around the hollowed out area that is so large that you could barely even see the crust above. The temperature is also at a comfortable 75 degrees Fahrenheit so that each individual fur doesn't feel the heat of the inside of the planet. The makeshift ground has huge tents which hold the homes of families that reside down below the surface.

In the whole area there is only one building which is made of something other fabric. Dark matter, the shape of a semicircle, somehow these furs have used dark matter to build buildings stronger then any diamond found on earth. If anyone who were not welcome and try and get in; they would just simply vanish into nothing and probably enter into the void, never to be heard of again. To enter, there is no door all you have to do is walk through a part of the wall and you're in unless you're not welcome. Inside of this area is about 100 furs of all kinds sitting in a circle with there eyes closed, the war room. Each of these furs has telepathy and other specialties which help keep the whole furry colony running smoothly.... Smoothly enough under the circumstances anyway.

One of the furs, a white vixen, shifts uncomfortably and wiggles her muzzles. She sends that general of operations a telepathic message, loud enough for everyone else in the room to hear her as well. Fangor! I just got a message from the dragoness who currently is survalencing the MW sector!

Looking around the room, Fangor flinches wondering if the news that he is about to receive is the one he has been dreading since he was born over 1,000 years ago. Yes Kelsey? What is the message Sarah has given you? Is it good or bad news.

The vixen shifts some more in her place before replying It is both sir but more bad news then good, the human she has been keeping an eye on just snapped and...

"And What" Fangor says out loud so that everyone can listen easier. Knowing already what she is going to say he sighs but lets her respond.

"His eyes turned blood red, and killed another human." Kelsey said, still a bit nervous but not as much now that she got it out.

"You mean the human Tony?" Fangor ponders a bit then almost falls backward when he realizes something. "But wasn't he the same Human that we thought would be the one to end this horrid war?

Kelsey looks straight at him, all the other furs in the room looking at the two of them as well. "The same one, I thought the same thing you are thinking now then Sarah sent me the other part of the news... He is also our savior..."

"WHAT... how's that even possible? You can't be that evil and that good at the same time!"

"I know sir; she said that she thinks the good side of him was able to keep the evil side of him for so long. The only difference today was that he was pushed to far over the edge and could not handle the stress and punishment anymore and simply snapped, releasing the evil within. This was also the final test for him, if he kept his cool he would have been the one... well he is the one but not what we were expecting."

A pause engulfs the room, and Fangor is the first one to speak and is going to regret his decision. "Tell Sarah to kill him" He says and hangs his head.

"What!?!?!? Why? He could be the one to end the war..." Kelsey says

"Yeah but for what side? He would be too unstable to keep alive, we need to act now while we still have a chance before the evil side of him becomes too powerful."

Kelsey nods and sighs, then sends Sarah the message telepathically a few seconds pass before she speaks again "Alright, she will do it soon."

On the surface of the planet the rubble of one of the cities the furries lived in is in ciaos. Fires burn everywhere buildings are nothing but rubble. Going through this rubble is about 100 demons searching it for any remaining survivors of the recent attack on the city... then either turning them into one of them or kill them if they refuse. This is something they do quite often nowadays, coming into cities and just takes it over with sheer forces. Recently however they have noticed that the towns they have been raiding have been empty with no one inside of them. One of them, in the middle of it all sighs and scans the area getting bored with the planet now.

"Tyson, I need an update!" One of the demons, probably his second in command comes running up to Roger.

"Sir this makes no sense, its almost as if the furries have vanished off the face of this planet. I am getting the same results from all of the other raid parties."

Roger sighs and shakes his head "I know they are still on this planet its just that we have to look harder!"

Not too far away, a screech of pain could be heard from one of the demons; Roger runs over to the demon who just yelled out in pain because he knows the only reason such a demon would screech out like that would be there partner has died, instead of being sad for the demon, Roger is delighted. "David! Your mate just died!!!! You know what this means?!"

David looks up both sad and happy at the same time. "Yes sir! The one we have been searching all this millennia has finally come out of hiding!"

Roger asks "what planet was Blair on again?"

_____________________________________________________________________________

Still waiting for the signal from Kelsey, Fangor paces around the war room trying to put things into place, but nothing seems to be fitting. What Brianna his next in command says next makes things even more puzzling.

"Sir Reports are coming in... the demons are leaving this planet! Every single one of them... are they finally tired of searching the ruins up above and decided that it's useless now?"

"I don't think so" Fangor says "I've heard about his race, that don't quit until they know the planet is left into nothing but ruin... so why now, why are they...."

"Oh, no they I think they have also found out about the person who is the chosen one... but how? They are not a physic race, how could they possibly even know about it?"

"I have no idea Fangor" Kelsey says "but if they are going there we need to get there first and release the antidote to that population; or else the whole race will be whipped off the face of the universe!"

"And if they find Tony alive they will destroy or take over the universe if they turn him over completely to there side!" says Fangor.

"Everyone! He says to all the furs that currently are in the war room; Get everyone ready to depart this planet within the hour, as well to all the other planets all over the universe. This is going to be the battle of the century and we need everyone we got!"

Within 10 minutes of this order furs are scrambling all over the underground home they now live. Millions of ships engines could be heard roaring to life all getting ready to take off. The biggest ship of them all is the command center of the fleet the size of earths moon. Alright everyone Tony says telepathically according to my statistics, it takes 5 years to get to this planet! We will get there 1 day earlier then the demons due to our engines being more powerful then theirs.

Hopefully by that time Tony's body will be too decomposed to be brought to life even by the demons standards... well lets hope anyway.

With those words said the ground above them starts to open up, about 20 minutes later, the large ship lifts off the ground and shoots upward and into the opening. 5 minutes of going through a tunnel they finally reach the surface of the planet and shoot into the sky without losing any momentum.

"Sir" Brianna says "all ships are now off the ground and in orbit"

"Good" Says Fangor "tell all ships to put engines up to full power and head for planet Earth!"

"Yes sir!" a few minutes goes by before she speaks again. "All ships accounted for and on full thrust. As well they are heading into hibernation mode for the trip."

"Good, turn on the cloaking field Brianna and head into the hibernation chamber with the rest of the crew. I'll be there in a few minutes."

"Yes sir." She goes over to the controls on the ships control column and presses a few buttons. When she is done, she walks toward one of the adjoining hallways and toward the hibernation chamber without a word.

Fangor looks through the glass and into the space beyond, stars go flashing by as he looks, wondering what will happen when he awakes 5 years from now. He turns his gaze away from the glass and also heads toward the hallway and to the hibernation chamber.

Back on earth things seemed to be all normal for the Ottawa provincial police; that was until they got a call at 11:45am.

5 minutes away from Mother Teresa High School, Constable Derrick was on patrol near a Lutheran church, when he got a call from dispatch. "All drivers, I repeat all drivers in the Barrhaven area please respond to a murder call reported at Mother Teresa High school."

Taken aback by the call at first, due to the time of day and the nature of the call, Derrick makes a U-turn, turns on his sirens and races toward the High School. As he gets closer to the high school he notices that there is no one in sight, the streets are empty except for a car driving by once in a while, and when they go past the school they speed up almost afraid of something. Now wondering what is really going on he speeds up even faster and when he sees what is standing at the front of the school he almost slams on the brakes. There standing in front of the is a teenage boy, pacing back and forth; what made him scared wasn't the fact that he was doing that, but that it almost looked like he was on fire, flames bursting away from his body, with his eyes an eerily glowing red.

He pulls over to the side of the street and exists the car crouching as he does and hides behind his vehicle with his gun raised in the air. He then goes over to rear passenger door and opens it up, inside is a mega phone. He gets the megaphone and closes the door again. Still crouching he heads over to the front seat of the car, grabs his radio, presses the call button and talks well almost screams into it. "Dispatch! We have a serious situation here, we have a male looking about the age of 18, 5 foot 8 and... and... he pauses and let's go of the button, trying to put what he sees into words and is just at a loss."

"Yes patrol 888, and what?"

"There is a dead body on the ground that looks to be on fire and the suspect seems to be on fire as well... but the flames seem to be coming from him."

"Roger patrol, I will radio all available patrol, we made need some help on this one."

Derrick puts the radio back into its cradle and closes the drivers door, he goes back to the hood of the car and raises both his gun and the megaphone. He points the gun toward the male and brings the megaphone up to his mouth. "In the name of the law... and the lord, get on the ground and stay there!"

Another two patrol cruises pull up to the scene and also stop on the street. They get there in time to see the male, stop pacing and turn his attention to the cop that just talked to him. "Why won't everyone just leave me alone!" he stares at the cruiser and amazingly, the car flys into the air rising about 100 feet before stopping and falling back toward the ground.

When this happens Derrick falls onto his ass and sits there flabbergasted at what has happened, he looks up into the air and sees the car just floating up into the air. "OH SHIT!" he scrambles up onto his feet and runs toward the other two cars for safety, 2 seconds after he gets out of the way, the car falls back to earth and explodes, into flaming debris. Derrick gets thrown forward from the impact and slides across the pavement, luckily getting only a few scrapes and bruises.

"Who the fuck is this guy?" one of the other police officers ask as he runs over to Derrick and helps him onto his feet and back to the safety to the patrol cars.

10 minutes later, and 20 cop cars later with the roads blocked off so no pedestrians would get hurt the order to fire is seconds away from the chief of police.

_____________________________________________________________________________

Sarah... the one partly responsible for the events that had led up to what is going on now sits on top of the school out of site from the cops down below. "Why did I push him too far? Why, why... WHY!" She starts to sob to herself putting her paws up to her face; "if he only wasn't so shy and polite it would never have gotten to this point."

She is crying because for the last two years ever since she had met him she felt an attraction to him, she even gave plenty of clues to him that she was interested in him, he either ignored them or just didn't recognize the signs and only recently did he start to actually take notice in her and try to tell her that he liked her, everyone knew it but he just couldn't bring up the courage and tell her. If he would have told her about how he felt about her she thought that a lot of things would have turned out differently but its too late now... she has to kill him, because now... he's one of them.

All of a sudden he hears an explosion, and looks over the building to see the police car explode... "Oh this isn't going to be good; they are going to be pissed."

She knows however that there weapon will be useless against him now because he is no longer one of them. She then looks at the gun like object in her hand; the weapon they use against the demons to kill them off for good. The only problem is if he is also one of there kind it might not do anything and he will just shrug it off. She has to wait until the last possible second or else the police will be suspicious of the events that had transpired.

You are probably wondering why I have been so close to Tony for so long and no one being afraid that I am a dragon. That is because all furries can shape shift into what ever living thing they come into contact with, which makes meeting with a new species easier for them; Then they would gradually show them there true features. She just shakes her head thinking if only she could have just another shot she could probably change him back to the way things were and probably even better, show him the good ways, and not have to kill him. She watches as more police cars pull up to the scene and everyone point there guns at the human like person staring at them infuriated that no one would leave him alone, just wanting peace.

She knows that even him thinking that shows that there is still some good left inside of him. Another minute passes and she watches as what seems to be the head police officer give the order to shoot. As he does Sarah takes her gun and aims at Tony as well and pulls the trigger.

_____________________________________________________________________________

At around 12:30 in the after noon Tony's mother walks through the front doors of their home and sees a pile of muddy clothes on the ground. She tilts her head wondering how they got there, since there wasn't a lot of time for Tony to come home and get changed and all before his classes. She takes off her boots and jacket and heads to the kitchen to put the groceries away. After she heads back to the front entrance to pick up his dirty clothes and heads down stairs to get them washed. She puts his clothes along with some other clothes into the washing machine and turns it on.

She heads back upstairs and turns on the T.V. to watch the news, earlier she heard the noise of sirens filling the air close by wondering what the commotion was all about and turns it onto the 12:30 news on channel 6.

"...Police constable Adrian said this was the oddest call he had ever gotten in his life, when he got to Mother Teresa High school he could not believe his eyes as he saw what possibly was a student on fire! That wasn't what the problem was, the flames were coming from the student and burning the ground below him."

Grace almost collapses to the floor and manages to find the couch instead as she watches the news... "Tony... no, it can't be..."

"After one of the police cars somehow rose into the air and blow up" the reporter said "police officers claimed the student as too dangerous and shot the student 2 dozen times. He still managed to stand for 10 seconds of stumbling around before falling to the ground and dieing."

"The identity of the male has yet to be released but sources say it is a male in his late teens with short dark brown hair, and about 5 foot 8."

While this was happening Grace picked up the phone and called Tony's dad, after a few rings a voice comes on the other end. "Ken here"

"Tony is dead!" she says sobbing into the phone, barely able to talk into the phone.

"What!? That is impossible... how? What... why?"

Grace replies turn on the news and see for yourself. She continues to watch the news, now students are on TV talking about what they saw through the windows from upstairs.

Finally Ken speaks into the phone "this is not good, if the demons find out about this, the world is going to be obliterated into nothing."

_____________________________________________________________________________

All he wanted was for some peace and quiet; he could feel the evil inside of him growing ever stronger inside of him, getting stronger and stronger. He could no longer control it within him. He watches as a police car pull up in front of him minutes after killing Blair, all of his injuries seeming to melt away the more upset and angry he gets he watches as the police officer fiddle around for a while before finally pointing his gun and yell something into the microphone.

He couldn't hear anything through all the anger but doesn't like the fact that a gun is pointed at him, he stares hard at his police cruiser and makes it lift into the air and make it drop again making it explode from the impact. God almighty, he thinks why they can't just leave me alone! More minutes pass still annoyed with the police and grins, realizing that their puny weapons cannot hurt him now, he's immune to them. So when he watches all of them point there guns at him the second time he is not fazed in the least by them and watches them all cower behind there cars afraid of him making him smile all the more.

The order to shoot him is given and bullets start to hit him, or at least try to, by the time they reach him, they melt away from the flames that surround him, but one of them actually hits him and makes him stumble. What is even more puzzling is that it seemed to come from above him. He looks up just in time to see a female anthro dragon duck her head back in the safety of the building.

He swears out loud and starts to feel dizzy, his sight starts to turn dark, his breathing slows and eventually stops. He slowly falls to the ground and lies there next to the body of his dead enemy Blair... dead.
