Dawn of the 13th Era

Mutant Wolf Pack

Watching the tree break apart with just a single punch if his, Orion wondered if he was daydreaming.

"It definitely wasn't this strong, it it was then I couldn't have held on for so long" he clenched his fist again and threw out another punch watching another tree break down.

"I don't feel any pain from the impact also, I can barely feel anything it's like punching a pillow but this is a full blown fifteen inches thick tree!" He recalled the sudden burst of speed he felt earlier also, that didn't feel like what he could do when he first copied Dave's form.

"I'm pretty sure something's wrong here but I just can't figure it out, it's like the cell I copied from Dave got stronger by itself over time." Orion muttered while scratching rubbing his forehead then switched back to his normal body he looked at the remaining six he had stored and checked the most plain looking one.

'There's nothing special about this, just a normal human body' he thought after switching to Lucien's form then swapping back feeling nothing different.

He checked the other five he got from Alex and his men earlier.

'If I'm not wrong then the blue one was from their leader I'll check the others, leave the best for last' he thought then picked another random one.

Watching his body change again, this time there was no obvious feeling he got in his body, he clenched his fists, threw punches there was no difference, all he felt was his mind feeling clearer and he could process thoughts faster.

"Must be something related to the brain, not useful right now." He decided to leave that one aside and picked the next one, the first difference he noticed were his enhanced perception, he felt like the world around him was moving a bit slowly then everything suddenly returned to normal.

'This is the guy who was running after me earlier, his ability must be related to speed I think.' he decided to take a small jog around the place and check how fast he could go.

After a while, he returned to the starting point and aside from having higher stamina and perception, there was nothing else, the speed wasn't that impressive also, international sportstars' could definitely perform the same feat but it was pretty impressive.

Looking at the three left he took in a deep breath and picked another one. The next one wasn't impressive but it was still better than the previous two, he could feel stronger than before but it was mainly just strength and his skin felt tougher than before.

Orion's mouth twitched looking at the three he already checked " why are they all so useless, I was expecting better"

He took in a deep breath and picked the fourth one then transformed again. "I hope this one's better, I'm really expecting something from this."

Transforming once again, he felt his body for any changes and found none. "It's not possible, it can't be. It's clearly a mutants cell how is there no difference from a normal human body. Or maybe there's something's else I can't figure out"

He tried all sorts of methods but failed to find a use for the new body he found. "Isn't this the same as another human body? I'll just use it to escape or something" he thought with a sigh.

"Welp the last one, I hope this one's better" he muttered then stared at the last one with a deep blue color and transformed.

After transforming, he didn't feel much at first only a boost in strength and he felt a bit faster but it didn't match up to Dave's. "A bit disappointing" he was about to give up when he felt something coursing through his body, he raised an arm towards a tree in front of him and....

"CRACK—BOOM!!"

--------------------------------------------------

The night skies was pitch black and the wind was blowing across the forest, Orion walked deep into the mountains looking for any sign of movements.

"I'll just go for a bit and if I still don't find anything then I'll return to the city." He muttered to himself then walked forward gently.

After what happened with the blue cell and what he could do with Dave's cell he would regret it if he just returned to the city that way. After a while he turned around planning to return to the city. "I've gone far enough, I should go back now...."

He looked to his side then froze in shock when he saw deep amber eyes staring back at him from the forest, the shocking part weren't the eyes but the height the eyes were staring from, he was already remarkably tall at 1.7 meters but the eyes were staring from an height higher than him.

"Oh boy, I shouldn't have gone this far" he thought then turned around to run when he saw another pair of eyes right behind him few centimetres shorter than his height, looking around him three other pair of amber eyes opened up staring at him from the pitch black forest looking at him like a prey stuck in a trap.

He quickly raised his right arm and changed to Dave's form the one he felt most confident with and stood his ground, the only thought going through his head was to run far away from the forest he didn't have any intention of fighting car sized beasts anymore.

'I seriously thought I could roam in the mountains just because of a little superpower. Forget it, I'll just run for now.' he rushed towards the wolf behind him which was also the smallest among them but it was still 1.5 meters tall. Clenching his fists, he threw a punch at the wolf catching it offguard and blasting it away into the dark forest. Then made a beeline for the city.

"It actually didn't die from that punch, even a tree got blasted apart what is it made of? Forget it, let others deal with it I'm off."

He suddenly paused his steps and his hair stood on ends with sweat rushing down his pores.

"What on Earth is that????"
