Amy's POV-
I felt shoddy and like trash, I thought that the sick feeling had gone away for good once I had shifted and got lost at night on the streets as a dog-thing. But nope a bubbling pain sprouted like a weed in my belly and it felt like hot tension built up underneath my skin. I was hot.... Uncomfortable.... And felt like a large tub of lard.
Collapsing on my bed I closed my eyes only to open them a few seconds later to sunlight pouring in through my window. I growled before pushing myself off the bed, headed downstairs, and out the door without changing out of my baggy T-shirt and gym shorts that where used as pajamas. My attitude was worsened by the headache that was piercing the back of my skull with spikes of pain.
"This day started worse and it is just gonna get worse now!" Raking a hand through my messy hair I noticed that the headache wasn't from an overwhelming amount of smells and information; it was like I had gotten used to those. I could pick up different scents and tell them from others like after the recent rain from last night, the water added a wet smell to the leaves of the plants and trees; it even made the earthy soil smell moister. I had gone off on a thought tangent but if the headaches weren't coming from an override of scenery info then why was I getting them on and off and so often when I never had them before?
I looked over and noticed a familiar curved and bendy tree. It was the one that Gertrude and I had used to climb on!
And the one I almost died from falling on.... So good and bad. But that also means I could find that concrete building again.
A mini battle was going on in my head despite the pain, that experience there was slightly terrifying but if I go there again I could look around for something useful... I know something diabolical is happening in this town and I bet the President Andrew is in on it as well as those creepy bracelets and necklaces.
My mind was made up, I had a pretty good idea on the path to where the building was, the only problem I could see was getting in and not being seen. Gertrude seemed to stress that last particularly well when talking about walking in the open along with shifting. I tended to doze out after that point.
I turned in the alleyway that housed the dumpster that was used to jump off and onto the tree. I shifted behind the dumpster into a cat before padding out and following the path by memory. Stray gravel crunched beneath my pads. The scents of the world were strengthened, the earth sweeter and despite the shoddy apartments that lined the streets in some parts the nature around me gave off a soothing aura.
A tiger striped butterfly fluttered past to land on a cluster of violet pansies that surrounded a tree with a moss-covered bass. I sprinted over, briefly forgetting my mission and swatted at the insect; it dodged and fluttered back into the air only to be swept by the wind.
I watched it for a few seconds before remembering my mission with a sudden start and continued my course. The concrete building was soon in site, it looked even more ominous and frightening then before. It gave off a darker feeling which sent a shiver down my spine almost like the one when Poppy and I went to the library.
I forced myself to step forward and walk toward to the decrepit building. A trash can rattled which caused my attention to snap towards it, a stray cat jumped out and ran into the dark. My heart was pounding in my throat and I wasn't even in the building yet.
