It..it can't be..

The fox lady?!

As the wolf referred to 'the disguise'... It makes sense now!

Furry arms, legs, Fox ears.

But... if the fox lady was a disguise...how is she now a wolf?

*laughs*

"It's called Shape-shifting." The wolf said in a low, dark tone.

"S-shape shifting? Is this some kind of random power that accesses animals to speak in the humans language, yet disguise as a normal human being?"

The wolf lowered it's head and nodded it.

"Oh, I forgot. My name is Sierra and I'm a half wolf and half fox."

"Shape-shifters have the ability to transform into a wild animal like this, but no one knows.

I was originally a normal human being.. like you."

My eyes went deadpan the second Sierra finished her sentence.

"A-a-a.. A human?"

"Yes, but it was a long story, we don't have time-"

I then caught the wolf starring intensively at my nails quickly.

Oh yes, I almost forgot about that. Another glance.

"Your nails. By the looks of it, they broke and started to bleed."

The wolf circled me with her eyes, crystal clear on my nails.

'Did she know what happened?'

"They grew back, I see. Is there some kind of spell behind you?"

S-spell? What is this creature trying to interface with me?

"W-what spell? I don't have any power, It just happened somehow...Promise!"

"Pfft. Don't give me fibs, there must be something special about it!"

*smirks*

"Awhoooo! I am a wolf and I suddenly am a human who 'Shape-shifted' to chase a girl, AHHH I'm dumb~!"

I started laughing, but a growl swelled inside of Sierra, fast.

"Seriously? Are you mocking me? You suck at imitations..."

*clears throat to a loud growl*

I didn't really know such derogatory remarks could affect a wolf, excuse me.

"Anyway, for your information, if your nails suddenly grew and healed, a special injection might have encountered your body at a very young age, and it might of erased your past memory...ever thought of that.. Carina?"

The clever wolf now made sense to me. At least.

So many words have been spoken.. why haven't I thought of that?

"How would you know, if that's the case?..."

A billion questions popped up in my brain.

"Because there wouldn't be any other reason..?"

I felt worried.

Did this happen, or the wolf is tricking me for mocking her?

No... It must of happened...

"You've had concealment, have you?"

"Technically throughout all my life."

"Oi, Carina look."

When I took attention to Sierra, she 'Shape-shifted',

but straight into a woman, the fox lady!

Fur was everywhere and looked exactly the same from the woman I saw this morning.

"Proof? Unfortunately, I lied to you.

I'm not an ordinary human, I'm a werewolf human.."

My eyes opened wide in disbelief.

"I wanted to see how long I could keep you occupied...

You ARE a Shape-shifter."

Her furry were-wolf fist then reached for my face and punched it, unconscious.

I got knocked out, but why?

From that on, I've gone through a discovery.

Discovery.
