Y/n POV

"Mija are you packed?" Mamma asks and I lift my suitcase "good, vamanos" I hurry after her and climb in the car. We drive through the village. It's a small village but the people are amazing, my family the Garcias are sorta the town leaders. Everyone adores Abuela, who couldn't. She's incredibly sweet and very active in the community. Her gift is water manipulation, she doesn't use it alot, prefers not to. My Mamma is sorta the town therapist, she can feel and take away other people's emotions, it's our family gifts. She gets run down after a long day but she shakes it off honestly sometimes I worry about her, she pushes herself to her limit some days. My Pa, he married into the family so he doesn't have a gift but that doesn't mean he doesn't help around the town. He's very strong so he helps with the more physical tasks, building houses, farming ect. My brother Mateo, he can be an absolute dick sometimes but he always makes sure I'm safe. He can talk to the dead, creepy I know but he's sweet about it. Most of the time it's the older folks who just want to talk to their significant other, other times it's kids who want to tell their grandparents or parents things. I, on the other hand, can shift into animals, pretty lame compared to talking to the dead but it's honestly so fun. I mostly entertain the kids and play with them. I can shift into a lot of animals that we don't normally see in Colombia and the kids love it. I sit next to Mateo and he looks exhausted, we're twins, I'm older by eleven minutes.

"Long night?" I ask and he nods, before we left he talked to the dead for a long time.

"How long is the ride?" He asks

"Four hours, get some sleep Mijo" Pa says and I pat my shoulder, Mateo puts his head on me and in minutes is asleep. I read my book and Mateo snores in my ear. About half way through my leg twitches and I tap Pa and the shoulder

"I need to shift" Pa pulls over and I slip out of the car, careful not to wake Mateo. I shift into a jaguar and run around the woods, when I don't shift for a while I get restless and twitchy. I run back to the car and shift back, Mateo is curled up on the seat and Pa sighs. "Don't wake him" I say and shift into a cat. I carefully jump on the seat and lay down by Mateos feet. I fall asleep and Mateo scratches my head

"Wake up hermana" I stand up and stretch, the car door is open and I jump out. I shift into myself and brush off my skirt. I'm wearing a green skirt with all sorts of animals on the bottom of it. My shirt is just a white off the shoulder. My hair is dark brown and has loose curls, I don't style it alot, there's no point when I'm shifting between animals.

"Everyone be nice" Abuela says and fixes my hair "Senora Alma and her family are dear friends of are so I need you two on your best behavior" She say and I smile

"Of course Abuela" She smiles and pushes my hair behind my shoulders
