The rustling of the trees from the gentle breeze that brushed across the forest was one of the perks of being alone. Not having anyone bothering you was another but being alone was, could you believe it...... lonely. I've always thought of going back. Back to where i thought i belonged. I knew though, that if i went back i wouldn't belong anymore. That since my parents died for the sake of keeping me alive, I was never able to go back. I was on the run for life. I've been wishing on a star that things could go back to the way they were with mum cooking in the kitchen and dad threatening every boy that i bring home.

I heard a stick break about 10 miles out and shifted into a striated pardalote. I flew over to where i heard the break and found a group of men. Most of them would be in their late 30's, medium build, and some of them weren't that bad looking and you know they looked my type but since they were trying to kill me it kinda knocked them out of the list of people i would bang. I sat on the nearest branch and watched them spread out threw the forest. You know what the hardest part about hunting down a shape-shifter is? It was finding them. I mean good luck to them. i could be anything that they walk past and they wouldn't know. Plus they don't exactly know what i look like either. i mean I've changed my appearance so much that I don't even remember what i look like myself.

"Why don't you just come out!" One of them shouted into the cluster of trees. You know what I've been running for years i think it's long overdue to have some fun. I flew over to where that guy was and landed on the closest branch to him. He would have defiantly been on my bang list. He had a jaw line that could cut you to pieces and had candy apple green eyes. He had a little bit of stubble and had short perfect hair. God why does the universe hate me so much as to tease me with this gorgeous man that wants to kill me. He kept walking forward and i flew above him. "Well if you want me to come out that bad, i don't see why not." I said. Yes i was still a bird and yes i can talk normally when i'm in an animal form.

He looked around the forest frantically, he is not going to find me looking around like an idiot. "Where are you then? Come out!" He shouted once more. Ok they was no need to shout man but i mean he didn't know that i guess. So i'll let him off. "If i come out, there is no guns and shooting. I just want to know what you guys want with me." i said. Now i know that this wouldn't work but it was worth a try. He looked behind him in a tree where i was currently rested on a branch. "Fine but if you do anything out of line shifter then i have no guarantee's that my men wont shoot you." He said looking in every direction not knowing where to look. I flew to another tree and said "Well then why don't we just talk. Just you and me." I said crossing my wings that he would say yes. He just laughed and said " and why would i do that? I don't know what your thinking of doing." well his not wrong there. i mean, i don't even know what i'm doing. I'm kinda just making this up as i go.

I flew to behind a tree and shifted into a field mouse. "True" i stated, "Ok i'm coming out now. Don't start drooling because i know i am smoking." I said emphasizing the smoking and the very attractive man let out a very attractive chuckle. I scurried out from behind the tree and just sat there among the leaves where he couldn't see me. He looked around curiously but that curiosity quickly turned into frustration. "Come out! Stop busting my balls! Just let me bring you to my boss so that i don't get my ass kicked!" He shouted. I know that i should be probably run by this point but like all i could think was 'I wish i could slap dat ass'.

"What does your boss want with me? I wont hurt anyone." I asked. They have been chasing me for 3 years now. I was 18 when i had live on the run. I never really got to talk to anyone except the cash register people and that stopped happening when i ran out of money and started hunting in the woods. "How about you come out and we can talk." He said. His voice sounded sincere but he was still holding his pistol. I feel really conflicted right now. Should i just talk to him? Like i mean maybe he'll change his mind when he see's how beautiful i am. "Fine but drop the gun." I said sternly. He hesitated and dropped it on the forest floor. "Now kick it away from you." I requested. He sighed and did what i asked. "Was that really necessary?"he asked. Looking at the trees surrounding him. "Not really but i like how i felt in control for just a second." I said cheerfully. He laughed again. "Ok now are you going to do your half of the bargain." he said. "Well i guess so..." I said.

I shifted into what i have been thinking that i look like. I was a relatively average height for a girl, had light/dark brown hair, i have a very light tan and i have some abs. I mean not to brag but all this running makes you pretty ripped. I was wearing a grey t-shirt with a leather jacket and black pants with some black converse. This guy who i should probably ask his name was staring at me which made me feel a little insecure and i might have accidentally changed my hair colour to a burgundy. As soon as my hair changed colour he cleared his throat and looked down at his feet. "So.. i upheld my half of the bargain." I said to break the awkward silents that was between us. He just stood there and looked at me then said "Yeah.. you ugh did just that." I looked around at the trees. God it's harder to talk to him now that he can see me as a human. I made a small cough and asked "so what does your boss want from me?" He looked up remembering why he was here. "I don't exactly know." He said.

Is he serious right now? Oh my god! Of course he doesn't know. My stupid hormones are making me do stupid stuff like actually shift in front of this guy. Like i can't believe this right now. "Of course you don't and even if you did know you wouldn't tell me because your trying to kill me after all." I said. I can't believe i was stupid enough to let myself be fooled. "Were not going to kill you." He said. "Yeah cause i'm going to believe that bull shit. I mean if our not going to kill me then why did you bring 2 guns and a knife?" I asked. He looked shocked. Probably thinking how did she know about my other gun AND knife. I am not just a pretty face. "H- How did you know.." Before he could say the rest of his sentence i said " You know that bird the was flying above you? yeah that was me. i could see your other gun poking out of the back of your pants and the knife that was just a guess." I turned around to shift and leave. That's when i saw them all. The rest of the men surrounding where me and this annoyingly attractive man are standing, pointing guns at me.... Yeah there is no way i am getting out of here.
