《Don't Drink The Gene Juice》13
Advertisement
"Jenna, we're really happy to hear all this," Mom said later that night. "I'm glad that you feel so confident about this."
Jenna beamed with delight. She felt so full of relief.
"I knew she'd love being a mermaid!" Lily said, "I totally called it. She's been obsessed with the ocean her whole life. She like an inverse little mermaid."
Jenna giggled. "That gene juice was bad, but it definitely was better than a sea witch."
Dad got up from the couch, and walked over to a little cabinet in the desk in the other room.
"I think," he said, "that now might be a good time to let you know about something."
He came back into the living room with his tablet, which he pulled up to an official looking document.
Dad put it into Jenna's hands. It had a DeNeticA watermark on it.
"Dear Mr. Jones...," she began to read.
It was a long, very legal document. It looked very calculated to sound as nice, but safe, as possible. They expressed, through Dad, how distressed they were to learn that Jenna's order had been accidentally mixed up with, as they'd thought, a transgender girl who was going to celebrate her transition.
Putting a worry of hers to rest, thankfully, the physical orders hadn't literally been switched. The girl hadn't become a wolf. Jenna's had just accidentally become a duplicate of the girl's order.
The legal language went on, transitioning from saying they were sorry to covering their a**. But then Jenna saw what the a** covering was.
"...We are prepared to offer your daughter... A FULL RIDE SCHOLARSHIP TO THE UNIVERSITY OF HER CHOICE!"
She squealed out that last part, than smirked shrinking back a little as she saw her family covering their ears.
"Yes," Dad said with a smug look, "I threatened to sue. They gave in way more than I thought they would though."
Jenna tossed the tablet to an empty couch cushion, jumping up and hugging Dad.
"Oh thank you so much Daddy! Oh thank you thank you thank you!"
Dad laughed. "You really have changed a lot, haven't you?"
"For the better," Jenna grinned, "for the better."

The Discarded
The Umbrae Lunae existed before man, beautiful abominations birthed in the nightmares of mad gods. They wait for humanity to misstep, for the angels to look away. For the moment when they can cloak the world in moon shadows once again. But even horrors have children. Even nightmares must feed. One child, unlike the others, finds his way to a school for young abominations. Will he be a sheep cast before the wolves, or a terror that wears the skin of wool to entice the wolf close? The flesh of his body was his only coin, strips cut to pay debts that never ended. Everyone has scars, stories in a life led, lessons learned, and licks taken. Luminous bodies touched by darkness. There are a cursed few that are the opposite, black shadows consumed by scars, twisted minds devoured by diseased hungers, bodies tortured misshapen works of gouged flesh, silver lines of blade thin cuts, ragged tears of teeth and glass. For them, the scars are marks of homecoming, the mangled wasteland the only place they feel at peace. Hell is a place. It's made of concrete, steel and glass. It's the sounds of starving kids crying themselves to sleep, huddling into small balls as creepers come and take their due of innocence and tender meat. It's eating rotten food and carrying ticks in your hair. It’s having no one and nothing while surrounded by everything. It's the life of a street kid. What abomination was birthed in the corrupt womb of man’s cast-off shit? Pretty people don't know the power of ugly. They can't see the strength in a broken soul or the power in a calloused heart. Those secrets are for the discarded alone. Only the broken understand the grace of darkness. The blessed folds that hide scars and tears, the protection of its concealing umbra.
