''Damm everyone is starting to panic if this continue they''ll doing something crazy''
"Okay Class calm down I''m sure everything will settle down and everything will go back to normal, settle down and sit back in your seats" The teacher said

-Bzzzzzt (sound effect for monster warp)
A green humanoid figure appeared in front of me, it was about 1.25 meters tall around a child''s height.
''What the hell! That looks exactly like a goblin! II thought they were just in games!''
"What is that thing!"
-Bzzzzzt
More of the goblins appeared
-Rawr (Goblin Growl/Roar)
The goblins started to walk towards the students. One of the students was slashed by the goblin''s claw and was dragged towards the rest of its race.
"Oh god! Help me! Please someone help me! Ahhhhhhhh!"
Everyone just stared in shock. The goblin started to attack the students again.
''Damn! Damn! We got to fight back'' Alex grabbed a pencil and stabbed one of the goblins eye. Some of the goblin''s blood got on alex''s shirt.
Grawwwwwww
The goblin slashes his claws towards Alex but luckily he rolled away.
"GOD DAMN IT! EVERYONE JUST DON''T STAND THERE! ATTACK THE GOBLINS!"
The students started to scramble around and tried to find something to attack the rest of the goblins. While the students scrambled around to find something the goblins rushed towards the students and attacked them which caused the deaths of 80% of the students.
"AHHHHHHH! HELP ME!"
"PLEASE! SAVE ME!"
The students that were still alive managed to find scissors and pencils and started to attack the goblins.

"Take this you monsters!"
"Go back to hell!"
-Grawwwwwww
The goblins scrambled away and fled out of the classroom.
"Are they gone?"
"Are we safe now?"
"Guys! Shut up and listen to me. We need to check other rooms incase there are still people alive! Also try to find resources, weapons, and food! Try to pair up with another person incase they come back!" Melissa said, she was the class representative or she was before this happened.
''What am I gonna do now? Oh wait I still didn''t pick a ability!''
The hologram appeared in front of me again. The list of options appeared again.
''I''ll choose Metamorphosis!''
-DING
Metamorphosis
-------------------------------------------
The ability to morph into any or organism as long as you kill the organism
''Okay, I better get away from here and check on my family.''
Alex started to walk away from the rest of the students.
"Hey! Where do you think your going? We need everybodyes help!" Melissa said. Although she said that she really didn''t want Alex to join them because he was gonna be dead weight.
"Sorry, I got to check on my sister she''s still in grade school." Alex said, he really was concerned for her. His sister was only 9 year old how can she fend off the goblins.
Alex walked out of the room to the hallway. The school was in a mess and there puddles of blood everywhere.
''Crap! the rest of the students are probably dead or too terrified to do anything''
Just then he saw a 5 goblins surrounding 3 humans. One of the goblins was a darker shade of green and was about an human average height (1.5 meters).
''He must be the leader, wait is that a hobgoblin?''
"Hey you! Help us kill these monsters!" One of the students shouted.
The hobgoblin looked towards the direction where Alex was. He seemed to have tell the smaller goblins to attack him. 2 of the goblins rush to where Alex was intending to kill him.
''What do I do!?''
Chapter 2-My ability
''Wait that''s it! I can use my ability!!''
Metamorphosis
The ability to morph into any organism if it is killed.
Alex was bewildered at this but he thought maybe he could turn into the goblin he killed earlier
-Metamorphosis ability activated-
Alex appearance started to change.
-Crack
His bones started to crack and his flesh turned green. While this metamorphosis was happening the goblins look in confusion at the changes in the human. The human now looked like there own kind so they stop there attacks and tried to communicate with it.
"Who are you?" One of the goblins said
"I am...Sotee Jaggedtooth" Alex originally got this name from one his game character which coincidentally was a goblin.
"That is good name. I am Zebit Bolthead." The first goblin said, he other goblin beside him just grunted in confirmation.
The Hobgoblin leader shouted "Who is he?"
"He is Sotee Jaggedtooth!"
''Seems like the goblins aren''t very intelligent creatures''
"Sotee Jaggedtooth join us, we fight humans and mate with human girls" the hobgoblin leader
said as he pointed at the 3 female humans.
"Okay" Alex was just waiting for the goblins to lower their guard and kill them. As soon as he saves the humans he''ll find his sister.
"You god damn ugly monsters! Get away from us!" Said one of the girls
"Haha stupid humans, you become slave." Of course the 3 girls didn''t understand what the hobgoblin leader said. The hobgoblin walked towards the 3 girls and made lewd expressions. Just as he was walking Alex ran towards the hobgoblin and slashed his neck with his sharp goblin claws.
"AHHHHHH"
The hobgoblin stared at him in disbelief and shock. He quickly died from loss of blood.
"What are you doing Jaggedtooth!" Shouted Bolthead, he quickly ran to Boltheado and his companion. Alex slash Bolthead but he parried it with his own slash.

"Die Jaggedtooth!" Bolthead jumped in the air and slashed at Alex, Alex managed to block it was thrown across the hall where the girl were loacted at.
"Get away disgusting monster!" OOne of the girls kicked Alex towards Bolthead. Bolthead rushed where Alex was and he grazed Alex''s arm.
''Damn It! Damn girls and goblins!''
Alex quickly slash Boltheads neck. Bolthead body fell on the ground, signs of life leaving his eyes. The 3 other goblins fled quickly in the opposite direction. Alex quickly rush towards the girls.
"Get away monster!"
Alex quickly deactivated his ability
-Metamorphosis ability deactivated-
"What who are you? Where did the monster go?" Said one of the girls
"I am the monster, look I have to go find my sister" Alex was about to rush off but one of the girls grab his wrist
"Where are you going what about us?"she panickedly said.
"Sorry can''t stay with you I have to find my sister!" He rushed away from the 3 girls.
''I got to find my sister she''s probably scared and alone.'' He ran towards the other side of the school
''Damn! Damn! She got to be in room 31'' Alex pass through the hallway and there were countless amount of blood on the floor. He finally made it into room 31, but what he found there were bodies of children on he floor with slash marks. He searched the children''s face but he didn''t find his sister.
''She got to be here somewhere.'' He continued to search through the whole room but he still couldn''t find her.
"AHHHHHHH"
Alex rushed towards the scream, what he found was the 3 goblins from earlier and they were hurting His sister, she had multiple scratches and deep wounds.
"GET AWAY FROM HER" shouted Alex. He activated his ability and licked the blood on his shirt.
-Metamorphosis ability activated-
Chapter 3- Crazed
"Get away from her!"
Alex ran towards the goblins and managed to throw one of the goblins off and he widely swung at the goblin until it was unconscious. Alex then quickly traastormed into a dark green hobgoblin.
-Metamorphosis ability activated-
Alex now a goblin rushed towards the two other goblins and managed to severely injured one of them with his claws. The other goblin also rushed towards alex and quickly executed a series of furry swipes with its talon like claw. Alex cried out in pain as he was left bleeding on his lower abdomen. The 1st goblin ran away due to its serious injury but the 2nd goblin continued to assault him.
-KREEAAH
The goblin shouted in defiance towards alex and alex met it with his battlecry and both of them race towards each other.
Alex swiped the goblins face with his claws and alex also recieve a injury at his shoulder which caused it severly bleed. The goblin cried out in pain as its face was just disfigured and will be heavily scared if it manage to survive his onslaught of attacks. Alex attack while it cried and pain and aimed towards it neck which cause the goblin to be decapitated.
After he killed the goblin he deactivated his ability and ran towards where his sister layed. Alex sister was faintly breathing and she open her eyes to see alex but closed them once again and there were no further breathing or actions from his sisyer as she laid quietly in his arms.
Alex grew mad at his own uselessness of being uncapablr of helping his sister.
''I should have been here! If i was here sooner maybe she would still be alive,nshe was my responsability.. Ill kill them! Ill all of the damn goblins!''
Alex was noe in a crazed state as he look for the nearest goblin to slaughter. He activated his ability and his skin turned dark green and his fingernails turn into dagger like claws.
Alex ran to every inch of the school and every goblin hr found was wuickly turned into minced meat.
The students quickly noticed this crazed goblin killing its own kind one by one slowly bt efficiently. The students finally came up with a olan to subjagate this goblin, if they all banded up together to kill it. As onenof the students were spying on it, it began to undergo some kind of transformation.
Alex started to feel sometjing nag his mind and a holograph appeared in front of him
-Evolve Hobgoblin?-
Yes/no
Alex pressed yes and a blinding light surrounded him as his body grew more toned and his perception got sharper, and his claws got even deadlier.
The genuine version of this novel can be found on another site. Support the author by reading it there.
-Evolution Successful-
-Hobgoblin Evolved to Goblin Lord-
Alex stood there stupefied of what just happened but he didnt have much time to think as a huge group of students ran towards him displaying their own unique abilitys.
''Crap! I better change into human!''
Alex quickly deactivated his ability and the huge group of students suddenley stop and stood confuse and hesitant.
Finally one of the students step up and spoke and said
"Who are you and what are you!"
"Im alex muramasa! Im human! " shouted alex (Note: btw i have terrible naming sense)
The student breathed in relief as he heard that he was human and actually didnt have to fight against that killing machine.
Alex remained silent because he feared one sudden thing can turn him against the students and they eill see him as a threat and dispose of him.
-Ping
A holograph once again appeaeed infront of all the students
-congratulation for completing the dungeon; Goblin Hill. Every individual will be rewarded of how much they contributred overall-
-ping
Another holograph layed before them, it was a chart filled with how many kills each student got and how many students survived in total.
-187/564 individuals survived-
Alex turned a blind eye towards the other srudents names and looked for his. He finally found his and he was in shock brcause what was before him said he had killed 46 goblins out of 200 althoufh it may not seem like a high number it was compared to the students which most of he only been able to kill one or didnt kill any at all! And alex had an astounding 46! It left him on top of the leaderboard
-ping
A black bsckpack appeared out of no where and several vials laid next to it indicating it was his to take. He quickly put the vials which contained a weird red substance inside. And equipped the backpack
The students started to notice the total of kills alex got and stared where he was standing and looked at him in shock and awe.
''Damn! They noticed it by now! What am i gonna do! And how do i explain this to them?''

------
In the main school hall everybody''s gaze look towards one location, and that location was where alex was located at. The students eyes were filled with awe and respect but a hint of fear too. The students started to whisper among themself of Alex
"No way he killed that many!"
"Is he even human, for all we know he can be one of those monsters in disguise"
Alex heard various of the whispers but didn''t pay them much mind because it was a familar feeling to him, he was always being ridiculed and judged by the students and teacher. But now he can care less, he and his sister were the only thing that mattered in his life. His parents left him and his sisters on a doorstep of a orphanage when they were both infants
(Author''s note: is that what it still is called in the modern world? Idk.) and he grew up with many children ridiculing and bullying him because of his background. Alex walked towards the school gates entrance and as he was about to leave he was once again stopped by Melissa.
"Where are you going? We need to stick together and look for help." Said melissa
Athough alex wanted to help them and many people, he wasnt some hero he was just an average student a moment ago. Alex continued walking completely ignoring what melissa said earlier. As alex passed through the school gates a voice was tranmitted and heard everywhere.
"HELLO HUMANS! TODAY AND FROM NOW ON YOU WILL EXPERIENCE SOME MINOR CONFLICT WITH OTHER ENTITYS. YOUR WORLD HAS BEEN MERGED WITH ANOTHER AND DISPUTE MAY BREAK OUT AMONG EACH RACE. MAY EACH OF YOU SURVIVE IN THIS NEW WORLD AND ADAPT. MUTATIONS MAY OCCUR, DUE TO BE EXSPOSED TO NEW ENVIRONMENT. "
The loud voice then turn quiet. Alex didnt bother pondering over this as he quickly adapted to the situation. He already knew dispute and violence was gonna happen in the world as several crimes such as murder and rape would be daily occurances in this new reality. As alex walked in the streets he saw many torn bodies and pool of blood scattered everywhere. He saw stores looted and ransacked, he also saw varities of monsters roaming the streets often alone but rarely in a group.
Aex walked towards the local grocery store that was located next to his orphanage and as he went inside he saw the whole store in a huge mess almost every edible thing was looted and the cash register was opened. The aisle was a mess and scraps of barely recognizable brands were trampled on the ground.

''Everybody must have been in a huge hurry.'' Alex thought.
As he walk through the whole store there were some traces of blood leading towards the store''s bathroom. Alex quietly crept up towards the bathroom infear of meeting another monster. Alex opened the door slowly to see a ghoul feasting upon someone''s corpse the innards were being gorged on and the arms were broken unrecognizable. Alex pupils dilated as he feel an urge to vomit on the floor.
-creak
The door hinges creaked and the ghoul attention was where alex was now. The ghoul rushed towards where alex was and led a brrage of furry attacks with it claws. Alex let out a moan as it''s claw left gashes on his arm. Alex yelled out in anger and activated his metamorphosis.
-Metamorphosis ability activated-
Alex appearance started to make a huge change, his skin turned jet black, his fingernails grew in length and formed razor sharp claw. His ears then grew pointednad longer in length, and his teeth changed and was now jagged.
(Author''s Note:http://www.52design.com/pic/20114/2011412105211584.jpg
It''s something like this) alex threw off the ghoul that was on him and led his own barrages of furry swipe. His claws left deep gouges in the ghouls face and chest.
-kreeeaaah
Alex and the ghoul rushed towards each other both injuring each other. Alex then kick the ghoul away from him, and rushed outside of the bathroom
Boom!
The door slammed and caused a huge commotion and drew in a group of goblins to come. The ghoul rushed out the bathroom door to find itself surrounded by the goblins. The goblins led a onslaught of attacks each heavily injuring the ghoul until it dropped dead. Alex watched all of this behind a aisle and suddenly he stepped on a glass which made a sudden noise.
The goblins looked towards where alex was and gazed at the location in suspicion. It let out a disorting screech ehich may seem unrecognizable towards humans but alex understood what it said.
"Who are you! Come out!" It screeched
Alex calmly walked out and stared at the group of goblins.
Author note: guys should alex join this squad of goblins? Or should he be alone? Idk im open to your ideas.
