35 Chapter 35 Olivia, Again (2/2)

”What are you, and how do you know my name?” she asked in confused horror.

”I'm Dustin.” His mind raced with everything he wanted to say, but couldn't in this form.Glancing up at the sky, he saw that it was getting late.It would be dark soon.Looking around, he spied a stump like the one the stick person had opened for him to hide in.He went over to examine it, hoping it might lead to another hidden room, but no such luck.He could get to the station before dark if he flew, but he wasn't sure he could fly with her.

It suddenly occurred to him, how convenient it was that she was throw at him right as he was rushing towards the station.It was obvious they were trying to slow him down again.

”Initiate evolution.I need to have weight bearing muscles and structures implemented throughout my body, to be able to carry Olivia.I also want a small face, without eyes, on the back of my head so that we can talk.”

(INITIALIZING EVOLUTION)

His legs got thicker, and he could feel muscles stretching along the back of his body.An itch on the back of his head grew till he felt like he would go mad, since his arms couldn't reach it to scratch.

(EVOLUTION COMPLETE)

Olivia had scrambled to her feet, and was staring at him in confusion and terror.

”Get on,” he said, turning sideways so she could climb on his back easier.

”Like hell!” she cried, turning and running away from him.

He scrunched his face in confusion.She had done this same thing before.Then it dawned on him, she must have memories they had shoved into her head, that made her act like this.With a sigh, he followed her.

It didn't take long for a predator to jump out, pinning her to the ground.It saw him, though, and turned tail to run.She jumped up, shooting him a scared look, before running again.

This was taking too long.He would have a hard time making it to the station before dark now.Why was she so scared of him?Even if she didn't have her prior memories of him, she should still be able to realize that he didn't intend to hurt her?

Movement to her right, caused her to turn left, which in turn led her straight into the trap, the giant spider had wanted.Dustin froze when he saw the size of the monstrosity heading for her along its web.
