LANCE

Dad chose that moment to slid inside the van and slammed the pizza box to Lista with the soda drinks. I flinched. But my body cannot move so I just close my eyes. 

"What the hell Dan? Are you trying to damage the pizza inside?" Dad didn't answer. He just stared. Probably blinked his black eyes thrice before resuming his seat beside me. 

"Dad -" Lista muffled my mouth. Dad raised his hands, with scaly talons ready to smack me in the face, send me groveling at the van floor.

"I wouldn't call him 'Dad' if I were you Lance. He no longer recognized you. Just stay sharp. He's way passed human now. Wanna know why?" Lista removed his hands from my mouth and got his attention back to the pizza.

My stomach feels not so hungry anymore. Pizza doesn't smell good nor look so enticing anymore. My strength is evidently gone. Staring at Dad, at the monster I no longer recognize.
