The Shifter Legion

Trouble with the team

We easily made it out of the ice lands and into a regular course. "I see the finish line!" I yelled pointing at the top of a building smiling. "Come on guys!" Lance said jumping on a railing and onto a building's edge pulling himself up. "I don't know about this!" Keith said jumping at the building barley latching on. Lance pulled him up and they waited for me before going on. "I jumped on the rail and slipped a little causing me to loosen my grip on the edge and start to slip off. My grip gave out and I dropped a little before I was cought. I looked up to see both Keith and Lance grabbing on to my hands. "We gotcha." Keith said with a smile as they pulled me up. I used my feet to push myself up a little of the way as they pulled me over the side. The guys landed on there butts and I on my knees breathing heavily. "Thank you....I really mean that.." I said teary eyed as I embraced both of the. They stiffened up but eventually hugged me back. "Now let's finish this." Lance said pulling back and we nodded and stood up running along the roof of the building. Making successfull jumps to other rooftops almost near the finish line. "We're almost there!" I said as the smiled. We prepared ourselves for a jump but we're knocked on our butts. "What happened?!" I asked looking at the guys as we heard a snarl from behind us and all of us stiffened up slowly looking behind us to see a pitch black puma with glowing yellow eyes preparing for a fight. "Don't move...." Keith whispered to us and Lance and I nodded. "Slowly get up...."Keith said slowly standing up as we did. "Now. Take a small step backwards.." Keith said but accidently stepped over the edge and screamed causing the puma to leap at him sending them over the edge. "Keith!" Lance and I screamed looking over the edge to see that he had shifted and was brawling the puma in mid air. Continuing to plummit to the ground. "Oh no! Lance what do we do!?" I asked looking at him worriedly. "I don't know!" He said looking at the tiger and puma fighting. Keith won knocking out the puma and used him as a airbag landing on the ground with a thud as the puma shifted to reveal a man bruised and unconchance under Keith. "Can you climb up Keith?" I yelled down at him and he eyed the buildings side and leapt onto the side digging into the brick with his claws climbing up the side of it with ease he finally made in to the roof and shifted back. Instantly I hugged him happily. "I'm glad your safe Keith." I said smiling. "Agreed." Lance said ruffling Keith's hair. "Yeah yeah come on let's finish this thing." Keith said standing up looking at the next two buildings roofs. "Easy." Lance said and we jumped easily over to the other roof and to the next until we stumbled into a little problem. The building we were on had a obstical who was sleeping until Lance tripped and fell in front of the lioness. Her eyes snapped open and she readied a fighting stance instantly. "Lance!" I yelled as the lioness launched herself at him. I went to run to him but Keith held me back because of the cubs sleeping. My eyes widened and I looked at the lioness and Lance in his jaguar form hissing at each other. "Lance! Tell her that we don't mean to harm her kids! We're trying to pass by!" I said slowly walking to the cubs, because one of them strayed off and was walking to the edge and I picked him up slowly. He started to cry getting his mother's attention and she glared at me letting Lance go. I held out my right hand to her slowly putting the cub to my chest to hear my heartbeat. He calmed down and with my hand still held out to her I slowly walked to the sleeping cubs and gently lowered him down with his siblings and made my way over to Lance as he looked at the lioness. She looked at me, Keith and Lance and nodded and layed down with the cubs again. Lance shifted back and smiled at us. "Come on last jump!" He said and we ran across the roof to the edge where we abruptly stopped holding onto each other to keep from falling over the edge. The finish line was on top of a sky scraper twenty stories up from where we were at. "How do they expect us to get up there!?" Lance yelled in frustration sitting on the edge holding his head. Keith looked down sadly mumbling. "Knew it wouldn't be easy..." I looked up at the finish line and at the guys beside me. I could fly up there with them on my back and all of us cross the finish line. "Get up! We're finishing this thing!" I said smiling down at them. "How? We can't get up there all at once without a ladder or something." Lance said looking at me and I grinned. "Yes we can! I can carry you guys on my back shifted of course and fly up to the finish line and cross it!" I said smiling at them. "I forgot you could fly!" Keith said happily. "You guys are heavier when your shifted but since we agreed it would be cool let's shift!" I said jumping over the edge doing a backflip shifting in mid air I spread my wings soaring up and over the roof of the building Keith and Lance were on. I circled it a couple times finding a landing spot and landed folding my left wing in and spread my right wing out fully to make a ramp for the two animal passengers. They jumped onto my wing and up onto my scaly back laying down in place. "Ready? This is going to get bumpy!" I said communicating to them through the suit as they let out their roars and I took off through the air soaring up and up into the air as my reflection followed me in the glass of the sky scraper. I flapped my wings one last time and shot up and through the finish line skidding to a stop before I fell off the edge as we all shifted back. "That was amazing!!!" Keith awed making hand gestures and hopping around fan boying about me. I rolled my eyes and giggled as Lance pulled us into a group hug. We embrassed happily laughing at Keith and his weirdness. Suddenly our suits began to admit a powerful light blinding us for a split second. When our eyes adjusted to the light we were shocked. A beautiful sight expanded around us three. "What's going on?" I turned around to see Zack looking around and I ran to him. "I don't know but it's beautiful!" I said smiling as I looked at the light display surrounding us.
