The Shifter Legion

The shifters and a brat

"Where the hell am I?" I asked confused looking around. "Your safe." Someone said as a door opened and a man walked in. I took a step back weary of the man. "Look I'm not going to hurt you." He said opening his jacket and pulled out the pockets. I raised and "eyebrow" and stood tall giving him a questioning look. "My name's Micheal Pratt and I'm the head of the shifter legion. A group that helps those with special abilities learn how to controll the power they have." He said taking a step closer causing me to flinch and he instantly stepped back. "I'm here to help you controll your powers. I will not harm you nor will anyone else in this facility. We're here to protect and guide those like you." He said and I huffed a breath of smoke out of my nostrils not  taking my eyes off of him. "I'll trust you on one condition. You tell me what's going on with me." I said barley opening my mouth. "I will." He said and I slowly took a step towards him. He didn't move he just stood there looking at me. I was about two steps to him when he reached out his hand and I stopped moving. I eyed his hand and sniffed it. He washed his hands? I slowly brushed my nose under the palm of his hand and he smiled at me. "Your a beauty. I've never seen a shifter like you. Your very unique." He said and I closed my eyes as he scratched my nose. "Come on let's get you back to your old self shall we." He said and I  opened my eyes to see him smiling at me. "I guess that would be good." I said and he smiled and stood up taking a step back. "Focus on your old self how your body moved. How you breathed,how you spoke. Focus on yourself." He said and I nodded and closed my eyes. I felt warmth wrap around me and I smiled to myself as it reached my neck. "Don't forget to focus on ymwearing clothes!" He yelled as the warmth flooded my face. I focused on everything he told me to. Inside the warmth I wiggled my fingers and raised my hands up to my face. I smiled seeing my normal hands and fingers only bad part was I had no clothes yet. I crossed my hands over my chest covering myself as I focused on clothes as the light was pooling around me still. I smiled remembering my favorite summer outfit. The light faded and I looked down at myself.

(That's her outfit btw)

I smiled and ran my fingers through my long silky soft wavy light brown hair. I brought it over my shoulder running my fingers through it happily. That's new. I thought seeing the tips of my hair had become purple exactly like my scales were. I looked in the mirror at myself and gasped seeing my face. My eyes! There not brown anymore! I stared at myself especially my bright blue eyes. "Why is my hair and eyes diffrent?" I asked looking at Micheal. "They take some characteristics of your natural born self. You look like her." He said in a shocked but happy way. "Her?" I asked confused. "Your mother... come one let's go somewhere and talk." He said opening the door walking out as I followed him. Outside of the room was monitors and screens showing the streets and everything in the city. I looked up at one of the screens and seen an explosion at the banks back door. Sirens filled the room and a red light shadowed the room as everyone who was chatting and standing around sat down at desks and spoke through headsets. "HT3 go!" Someone said and people rushed pass me. Brushing my shoulder moving pass me. "HT3 leader do you copy?" A woman said into a mic annoyed. "Right behind them." A man said behind me causing me to turn around when I came in contact with someone causing me to fall on my butt with a thud. "Oh I'm sorry!" A man said getting up off the ground and helped me up. "Thanks.." I said as he let go of my hand. "Jackson!" A girl said and I turned around to see the girl glaring at me and the man ahe called Jackson. "We got a mission stop flirting with the new comer." She said angrily as she spun around and jumped into a human sized hole in the wall. "Sorry I have to go. I'm Jackson by the way." He said smiling at me. "Uh Kate...my names Kate." I said smiling at him blushing slightly. He nodded and grinned as he jogged backwards a few steps looking at me then he turned around and jumped feet first into the hole the girl went through. "That's Jackson Stone and Maddison Willows. Part of HT3. There a crew that takes out the changlings who get into trouble here on earth." Micheal said as I nodded looking at him tucking a piece of hair behind my ear as we continued to walk. "Here's a good spot to talk." He said sitting down at a table. I sat down in front of him looking at the monitor that showed the commotion in the city. "My mom? Who was she?" I asked confusingly as I turned to look at him. He sighed and looked at me. "She contacted me one night in my office. She appeared holding a baby,you. She asked me to find a suitable home for you. One with no pain of fear of the past. One that would love and nurture you. She explained that the changlings had invaded the kingdom you were born in. That they only cared about power and hatred. That they would be after you when your powers awoke. She feared for your life, so she asked me to watch over you from afar. I chose the Argents because they loved and cared for anything that needed help or was in your case chased and marked for death. I was told to never reveal the past where you were born or anything until the time was right." He said holding his hands together on the table. "Why...I understand it was to protect me but why did they never tell me...." I asked looking up at him and he sighed. "They worked here a year before you were brought to earth. They were respected and trusted with everyone in the Shifter Legion. They had training because they were part of a team that was outstanding. They were HT1 the honorable legions of the Shifter Legion. The group was not only people working together or friends they were closer than that they were family. They broke up the team because of there final mission. They went in thinking the job would be easy like every other job,but it was a trap they were jumped and barley made it out alive all thanks to one of there own. His name was Legion Stone. Jackson's father at the time Jackson was still in his mother's womb. Legion sacrificed himself for the sake of his teammates. Melissa,Legions wife was on the team, that day she had to say bye to her husband. That day she found out she was going to have there child without him. It was hard on the group they had no will to go on, no one was themselves after his death, but when the child came along they found a new hope embracing Melissa and Jackson deciding to never cry again. They all came together to help Melissa raise Jackson, they all decided that Legion would not want them to be sad or depressed. He would want them to be happy and help in anyway they all could. The team split up but still contacted each other frequently. After that day everyone moved forward even the youngest member...." He said trailing off. "You....you were the youngest member..werent you?" I asked seeing a picture of five people smiling and laughing in his pocket. "Yes.. Legion always told us to be happy even when were sad to never look back on the past leap into the future and smile." He said smiling sadly. Just then a lady ran up to Micheal. "They were attacked. They can't make it out. What do we do sir?!" She asked worriedly. My eyes widened and I looked at the screen as it showed Jackson and Maddison back to back inside the building. I stood up and ran down to the steps. "Kate! What are you doing!?" Micheal said and I jumped into the hole Maddison and Jackson went through. The tube grew larger and larger. It's bigger than my size! I'll fit! I thought as I focused on my dragon form. Light flooded my vision and warmth spread around me. In a matter of minutes I was in my dragon form and zooming down the slide like thing. The slide thing curved and in front of me was a huge ramp. I've got wings for a reason. Let's see what they can do! I was sent into the air by the ramp high into the air in fact. Gravity gripped onto me and I vegan to fall. I plummeted to the ground at a steady pace. Not yet....not yet..... The ground got closer and closer with every second. Not yet....Now! I unfolded my wings and soared through the air flapping hard. I've got to get there soon or something could happen to them! I soon found myself gliding through the air at a fast pace trying to find the bank. About a hundred yards away from me I seen the bank and flapped hard. I got closer and closer until I was about ten yards away when I made my descent. This is going to hurt in the morning. I thought as I pulled my wings in and turned my body causing it to spin gaining speed. I shut my eyes as I made contact with the roof of the bank crashing through it with ease. I fanned out my wings and landed on the floor. I looked around trying to find Jackson and Maddison. I turned my head around the corner and seen them back to back with cloked figures surrounding them. What was worse it that the figures had tails! I huffed silently and readied myself. I got low and I waited. I shot around the corner and cought one of the figures in my mouth biting into him as he writhed in pain. I slung him as one of the other figures. They both went over the rail crashing into the floor beneath us. I glared at another figure and amhe smiled. I sensed someone behind me and I swung my tail into there chest. Even with my tail being dull it easily pierced the chest of the changling. I flicked my tail and the figure went over the rail easily. "I suggest you give up before I end you also." I said as Jackson and Maddison fought the other two figures. The hodded figure clicked his tounge and charged at me. I felt my lungs fill with hatred and wrath. I roared at him causing flames to singe him to crisps. He fell to the floor with a puff of smoke and I stepped on his back causing him to turn to dust. I looked at Jackson and Maddison who were panting and bleeding from cuts. "What happened to the others?" I asked panting heavily. "These bastards captured them. They formed out of the shadows and took them instantly." Maddison said whipping blood off her lip. My eyes widened and I stepped back. "I'm sorry.." I said sadly. "Don't be sorry if it wasn't for you we would have been captured or worse dead. Thank you." He said sheathing his sword. I nodded and looked downstairs to see the figures laying still. "We have to slit there throats in case there not dead." Maddison said going down the stairs. "Don't bother there dead." I said looking at them in disgust. "I'm not going to trust a newbies decision." She said angrily. "I might be new but at least I know when there dead." I said glaring at her. She clenched her hand around her sword and walked up the stairs she went down and yelled at me. "I do what I feel like! At least I'm not a adopted freaking monster!" She yelled and my eyes widened. "I might be a freak and adopted but at least I have comman sense and a brain! I don't hate everyone who's better than me! Lastly at least I cared enough to safe your damned life!" I yelled and I flapped my wings down hard flying out of the hole in the roof. I continued to climb the sky passing through the clouds. I snorted and shook my body. God. She's such...such a brat! I growled and turned around and broke through the clouds seeing the city below me. I found the ramp thing I came out of to rescue that witch, and Jackson and flew up it, until it grew small and I shifted back to my normal self and climbed out of the hole. Micheal and several people stood around talking, when I climbed out of the hole and cleared my throat.
