"Okay, which one of you is Lana and which is Snickers," Ava said, walking outside with a plate of sandwiches, "I made pb and j sandwiches."
"Oh, I'm Lana, Snickers ain't claiming my meal this time," I said, standing on my hind legs, wobbling.
I wobbled as my dog legs became human again and I could regain my balance and walk to the table as the rest of me, well, became me.
"Here snickers," Ava said tossing him a piece of bread with peanut butter on it.
Snickers jumped up and caught it mid air, then his face went down to the ground and he gobbled up the food.
I grabbed my sandwich and took a big bite, being a dog is tiring.
"What's it like?" Ava said through a mouthful of bread, she swall-owed, "being able to turn into different things."
"It's cool," I said, wiping my mo-uth. I never really knew how to explain the feeling of having these powers, since I don't know what it feels like to not have them.
"I wish I had it, then I could become a bird and fly away," Ava tucked a piece of her fiery red hair behind her ear.
"Yeah, but you have to be careful," I said, setting down my sandwich, "Becoming a bug, someone could squash you with a fly swatter, or a shoe."
Ava looked up at me, intrigued.
"Don't become a deer durring hunting season, I know that from last year, those hospital bills are still being paid off," I chuckled at the memory of being shot in the chest, but I didn't feel it. I never feel it.
"Yeah, but I still can't believe you weren't in any pain," Ava looked down at her sandwich and rotated it in her hands.
"It must be something to do with this power I have, or maybe it's something else that I have yet to discover, Noah has it too, and so does Kitty and Tyler, but no one else does." I explained. Ava wiped a chunk of peanut butter off the corner of her mouth and swallowed.
"Do you think you have a different power?" Ava asked setting her sandwich down and wiping her hands on a napkin.
I shook my head and swallowed the last bit of my sandwich, "I would have found it by now," my mouth was still sticky from the peanut butter, "at least I think I would."
Ava nodded and fixed her red locks as she stood up and grabbed both of our plates.
"Maybe try to find it?" She said, facing away from me.
"Maybe," I said as she stepped inside. I pondered for a moment.
How would I find it?
Then my phone buzzed in my pocket, pulling me out of my mind.
I pulled my phone out of the pocket of my black jeans. It was a text from Noah.
Noah: Bro get over here you won't believe what I found!!
I just laughed at the text.
