  I rush to the pen quickly shifting to Zipper who was more amused by this than I was. I tried to tell him to move faster because the female sounded terrified and all I got from Zipper was amusement and the girl is fine no worries. Aside from her being there she isn't your concern. Which to me sounded weird but Zipper is a familiar so he probably had his own agenda. We make it to the pen with dad not far behind me and I get Zipper to change me back and I see a very dirty girl hanging from a branch in one of the trees that hang over the goat pen and she was hissing like a cornered feral cat. Now to someone who knows nothing of Jesus I imagine seeing a three headed dog would be terrifying the first time.

Not to mention the girl was naked and I was trying to not look directly at her, dad was just looking and with a very careful eye I could tell he was checking to see if she had injuries before we got near her. He talks in my direction while looking over the tree to see if the girl would fall anytime soon. "Your mom is coming best have her get the girl down, I already had Jesus send me the image of the girl before he scared her. She's a wolverine, though as those are uncommon to have been a wild born in this area I wonder if she had been born to a human family and ditched at a young age?" I nod in agreement, while we don't generally have wolverines in the wild here. There was always the possibility that one had moved in and this was their child.

Mom shows up walking carefully and I could hear Mrs Brenda yell at the younger children to stay inside until mom takes care of it. Mom slowly approaches the tree the girl is in and I notice she has an old towel over her shoulder, probably to cover the girl's body. Which would help so I can stop trying to look away from her. She walks in an exaggerated way so as to not scare the girl treating her as a scared wild animal not a teen aged girl.

Not a bad idea as we don't know if she's been living wild all her life or for just a short period of time. Mom starts nodding her head and says, "like this see I am talking." The girls stops screaming but shakes her head and grips the branch tighter and mom says. "He's not going to hurt you he was just trying to stop you from eating the goats." I could see my mom wave a hand behind her back, my guess is that the girl couldn't understand spoken words quiet yet. Which is why mom was making a point to talk to the girl, I am sure she was mind speaking to the girl.

Something my mother had discovered over the last few years is that she could talk in her mind voice to anyone. So she was the best suited for such situations as a wild luck born appearing. My mom makes it to the base of the tree and she says, "I promise he won't hurt you see?" I see Jesus roll onto his back playing the happy dog at mom's directed command, the girl turns her head looking at him rolling around on the ground shocked. She then looks to my mom standing exaggeratedly still and calm at the bottom of the tree and us two trying to not look at her and the cerebus rolling around again.

I see Gale come over slowly walking with a relaxed smile on her face, "your mom is trying to convince her to climb down Slyph says the girl has no idea why she is human now. So my guess is that yes she's been in a wild state her whole life." I was glad Gale came over to tell me that, as I can't just passively listen to my mom's mind voice. Dad can due to being her Mate, but mom has to let me connect to her mind voice for me to hear it. Sometimes a familiar can 'overhear' other mind voices, however that requires me actively attempting to do it and I was not sure if I would cause a problem for mom by intentionally doing so.

The girl notices Gale and I could see her looking her over, I just hope the extra person wasn't scaring the girl. Interacting with a wild born luck born can be tricky if they've grown up as their shifter form in the wild. Seeing as how most shifters don't act like their other species overall, but the wild born ones always act like their species and have to be taught how to act human.
