Jake:A tiger's tale
Sitting on a tree branch, above me was a parrot. Which was weird as I had never seen one up so close. I sat on the cliff as I watched the beautiful sunrise. Twilight had gone to look for some clues about my father's whereabouts with my mother. I couldn't help but wonder how it all came to this, from a simple high school boy to being a shapeshifter.
My father, who I'd met only a few days ago, was now being held captive by a pretentious and vicious group called the FIVE. Twilight hadn't found out what her sanimal was and had no powers to protect herself in this new society, so I now had to look out for her. Not only that but my mother, my father had been kidnapped. Amongst us all, she was the most devastated. She had only met her husband recently after spending 15 years away from him.
So many things were happening and I just wished it would all be alright soon. I kind of missed my life back in California but I was also ready to give this place a chance.
As the sun rose, I stood up and left the cliff. With the same thoughts flooding my mind. As I progressed through the woods, I could feel someone else's presence around me, like I was being watched. Remembering my mother's warning not to trust anyone, I made sure to stay alert and cautious.
Suddenly, a quick flash of brown fur attacked me from the right. I couldn't properly make out what it was. "Woah!" I said as I dodged the attack. When the creature stood before me, I noticed the scar it had on the side of its belly. It was the same cougar I had fought from that night! "Shit" I cursed under my breath. I didn't have time to react, so I turned around and ran as fast as I could.
Running in an unknown direction, I hid behind a tree and sat down. I knew that the Sanimorph would not leave me so easily. I could still hear it, running in the direction I was. It wouldn't be long before it found me. With a deep breath I got on all fours.I had to protect myself. What was the use of these powers if I couldn't learn how to use them?
I can do this, I thought to myself. Remembering the previous time I morphed and with lots of focus, I started to feel my bones changing their positions and breaking to form a new formations. Indeed I felt excruciating pain, but I had to continue, the cougar was drawing closer to me. Unable to hold back, I groaned in pain as I continued morphing. Giving away my location to the cougar Morpher. "Aaahhh!" I groaned loud enough to echo against the mountains.
Seconds later, I opened my eyes to see giant paws instead of hands. My senses were stronger than they were before. I felt stronger, faster and more empowered. I tried to run home but I soon got stopped in my tracks by the cougar. This time, I was ready to fight. "Rooaaaarrrrrr!" I roared loudly as I lept at the cougar and striked it with my most powerful and lethal weapon, my claws.
The poor mountain lion looked weakened by the attack and took a few steps back before leaping to strike me. That's when things started to get scary. It was a full on cat fight.
The cougar Morpher was able to lay a few strikes and injuries on me but I did the most harm. As blood started oozing out of each wound it got from me. It ran away, left with no choice but to save itself. Thank God it's gone, I thought to myself. Figuring I would reach home faster if I used my Sanimal form, I raced to the house.
It was like my Sanimal already knew its way around Encers and the Enchanted forest. It was not long before I arrived at home. Entering the yard, I paused for a while and started morphing back. It was quite smoother than the previous morphs I had, so I morphed easily. "Ugh, well that wasn't all that bad. I guess." I said with a shrug as I got into the house.
"Mom! Twilight! Is anyone home?!" I asked. Seeing as no one was back yet, I went upstairs to my room. As I laid down on the bed I wondered, who was that Sanimorph anyways?. Pulling out a packet of snacks from my drawer, I start munching on them like crazy. "Not even my favorite Lays can satisfy my hunger. I need to get something to eat. Should I cook? I don't even know how to cook, Jake you fool. I can at least guve it a try." saying that, I stood up and went downstairs to the kitchen.
