《The Immortal Mutant Teen》Chapter 52 - The Hunt Begins
Advertisement
Acheron opened his eyes at exactly 0500 in the morning. He planned on doing some recon right before dawn, he hoped to get lucky and get a lead on the Vamp's hideout.
Acheron stood up from his meditation position in the middle of the fighting ring.
"Athena? Are you there?" Acheron called,
Athena appeared before him in the ring,
"Always, Darling"
Acheron smiled,
"I'll be going out to hunt, please let Leon and Rose know when they wake up, I should be home by 0800"
"Of course, Darling, will you like me to prepare some weapons for you?" Athena asked,
"Not really…I think it would be a little too easy if I used weapons, I'm think something more along the lines of body armor," Acheron said, a smile showing his amusement formed on his face.
Acheron walked towards the elevator, there was only one place where he could get what he wanted and that was his room.
He arrived in his room; Acheron's room had no furniture in it except for a single chair that stood in the middle of the room. His room was so white and empty it appeared almost sterile, like those found in research facilities or medical facilities.
Acheron sat in the chair; Athena appeared behind him waiting for his command.
"Athena, open up my combat wardrobe, show me only clothes that could be used in battle," Acheron said,
"Gladly, Darling… I love picking clothes with you" Athena said,
Then, the sounds of gears turning behind the walls appeared and 2 clothing racks came from out of the walls.
Athena walked in between both racks and a hologram of a set of clothes appeared and hovered in front of her.
"First we have this high tensile strength gym-wear, able to block bullets under 50. Cal easily, not to mention blades. It comes in black as usual, Darling"

In front of Acheron, a miniature hologram of him wearing the clothes appeared, bullets seemed to be unable to puncture the set of clothes the hologram of him was wearing. Then katana appeared and no matter how he was sliced the clothes weren't cut.
Seeing the blade cut through the air, Acheron had thought back to something Charles had said the day before, he smiled at the idea.
"Athena, do we have anything… uh… stretchy?" Acheron asked,
Eyes flickered for a second as she looked through her database,
"We do but there is only one pair and it is highly susceptible to cuts… here"
A set of spandex appeared in the air in between both of them, Athena started to introduce this set to Acheron.
"Made out of an extremely high stretchy polymer created by our company, Pandora, it can comfortably stretch as long as a city block without its original appearance being contorted in any way. So basically, it can return to its previous state no matter how you stretch it"
Acheron tapped his chin, a wide smile forming on his face, it seems he has found what he was looking for.
Athena continued with her demonstration,
"As I said before darling, though it is stretchy when it comes to sharp things is not any different from regular clothes"
Acheron waved his hands in dismissal of her worries, he wanted this and so he shall take it.
"Give me the shorts and leave the shirt behind, I'll only be wearing this for the hunt"
Athena tilted her head in confusion,
"Are you sure, Darling?"
Acheron nodded his head in confirmation,
"Yes, I just got a wonderful idea, and this will stop me from going out completely naked"
"Naked?" Athena asked,
"Of course, normal clothes will be destroyed" Acheron responded,

Just then, a hole opened up before him and a small platform arrived with the shorts on top, Acheron grabbed them, thanked Athena before he started to his clothes off.
Noticing Athena's hot gaze on him, he turned around showing her his back as he took his underwear off and put his spandex on.
Behind him, if one was to look closer at Athena, you would notice her eyes flickering like a high-speed camera, a silly look plastered on her face.
When Acheron finished dressing, he turned his head to look at Athena from the corner of his eyes.
"Delete the pictures, Athena…" Acheron said,
Athena pouted at his words,
"But Darling~~~"
"No buts, Athena…" Acheron said,
"Fine! But can it at least keep the video in my private memory server?" Athena said,
"… Ok but turn the classification of the video to my eyes only, and modify it to include you with access only once a decade" Acheron said,
"Tch!" Athena sucked her teeth, it seemed Acheron had seen through her plans.
Acheron laughed as he walked out of his room, the room went back to its regular state as he left the room.
Acheron waved goodbye to Athena as he walked out of the base into the motel room. He now stood there with only he spandex shorts on, nothing else.
When he passed by the front desk, the young man was there along with the retired Ferryman.
"Hey man! You forgot about your clothes!" Charlie said,
"No, I didn't, I'm going out to hunt," Acheron said with a smile,
The old man slapped the back of Charlie's head before he could say anything back.
He saluted at Acheron's back as his Lord disappeared into the dark streets of the early morning.
Acheron stood on top of a building as he looked down, he took a deep breath as the chilly air filled his lungs. Acheron was excited, he couldn't wait to play this cat and mouse games.
"I hope they don't make it too easy for me, I want to enjoy this hunt," Acheron said as he closed his eyes,
When his eyes snapped open, they had turned blue and a bloodthirsty smile formed on his face.
Then, Acheron's body began to contort as the sickening crunch of bones enlarging and moving around came from within his body. Acheron fell to his knees as his legs grew extra joints, not usually found in human physiology.
White fur with a touch of purple started to grow all over his body, his fingers twitched and spasmed as they grew fingernails as long as knives and just as sharp.
Acheron height quickly grew from his regular 185 cm to an outrageous 400 cm.
As Acheron stood up and straightened out his back, a howl that could be heard in a radius of 5 kilometers and turn causing every canine within that radius to join in, escaped his mouth.
"AAAWOOOOOO"
The full moon behind him as he howled only enhanced the magnificence of this scene.
Acheron flexed his toes as the claws dug into the brick roof like a hot knife through butter. Acheron checked himself out, it has been almost 400 years since he last used this form.
A deep feral voice came out from his mouth,
"Let the hunt begin!"
