Hello there! It's feels strange to write this, but it's my first time as writer but not as reader.haha! i didn't dare to write here but inspired by the amazing stories I've read here, my imagination ran wild, and I decided to give writing a try. I hope you enjoy my work and will kindly guide me if I make any mistakes.

Luna, the shapeshifter, was created by the Almighty God to fulfill His curiosity. She was one of a kind, with no other creature like her. Playful, mischievous, brave, kind, humble, and adorable, Luna possessed the wonderful power of shifting into any creature she saw. Throughout her life, she used her powers to help every living being. She helped little Birdy find his mama bird, assisted Red Eye Rabbit in digging his home, guided the sheeps of her dog friend becoming a dog, and provided directions to lost villagers and travelers by shifting into a pretty girl, strong lady or old grandma. This was her daily routine, after all, God created her for this very purpose.

Like every day, Luna was finding the sweetest wild berries, becoming a sharp-eyed eagle for her birdy friend, whom she had helped find his mama.Luna soared high, searching for the perfect berry. She found the tree, but the first one was sour, the second rotten. Finally, she discovered the sweetest berry and plucked it, eager to gift it to little Birdy for his first successful flight. As they would soon explore the forest together.

Though the sun shone bright, dark clouds gathered, and a thunderstorm rolled in , ofcourse it was rainy season.Luna took shelter in a nearby tree, drying her feathers. She spotted her sheepdog friend, protecting two lost baby sheep with the daughter of his owner. The little girl and dog were searching for the lost sheep, but got stuck in the heavy rain, losing their way home. Luna, ever ready to help, tucked the berry in a tree hole for later and shifted into a beautiful dog.approached the lost ones, directing her friend to protect the girl and little ones until she could guide their master to them.

Luna wandered, searching for a way to the village. Despite her centuries-long experience, navigating through the forest was difficult today. Flying through the storm was not an option; it was the worst thunderstorm of the decade. She made her way through bushes and muddy puddles, a challenging but not impossible task for the god-gifted Luna!

On the other side, the four stranded beings were terrified. The little girl cried, holding her little sheep tight, while the dog shielded them, hoping his friend would arrive soon with help. The little feets  were unable to travel through the storm, and big trees were falling left and right. Thunder struck random parts of the forest, and water flowed like a heavy stream.

For hours, the weather grew colder and more stormy. Luna ran elegantly, her high speed allowing her to dodge trees and thunder. Though her body was cold and tired from the weather, her strong determination kept her going. She was almost near the village, where the smells of firewood, freshly cooked meals, and small bakeries filled the air. The lights on house doors and the fruit and veggie gardens within every house seemed blurry from afar, but Luna was happy to be close to her destination.

Everything seemed possible now; she could easily guide the shepherd to the forest and save her friends. In her daze, she felt a sense of relief, but the weather wasn't helping. Suddenly, a loud thunderclap boomed, and a flame erupted from a nearby tree. Luna's body felt strangely heavy, a burning sensation spreading across her back. Her vision turned black, and everything went dark..."

The weather grew more unstable, and the hope of the trapped ones was fading with each passing moment. But there was one who never lost hope - our main character, Luna. Despite her struggles, she tried to break free from the big branch that had fallen on her body. She attempted to shift into another creature, but the pain was too overwhelming, and every method she tried failed. Her bones were breaking, her body felt numb, and hot, liquid blood flowed through her mouth. She felt a cold shiver run through her entire body... but eventually, she felt a strange lightness, as if the weight on her body was gone. How was this possible? she thought. Was she dying without rescuing her friends? Who would save the little girl, the baby sheeps, and her brave friend, the dog, who was protecting them from harm?"
