*Hidden Nature* A Shapeshifting RP

[NickyKnack]

Nisha jumped out of her tree,"Hey! Wha'sup?"

Jackie came to her door, looking out into the hallway curiously as she reached it "What's going on?" She asked, unintentionally asking the same wuestion Nisha did before yawning

Cadeon looked between the two. Then took a deep breath and let it rip. "It would seem that Nashton and Taylor have successfully escaped from Menagerie and are now on the lamb with only their wits to get them through. Plus they har now the proud owners of two magically spelled collars and are in need of our help. But more importantly, your help Jackie. They didn’t want to lead the humans here, so we will have to go to them." He took a deep breath and added for Nisha's sake, "Now aren't you glad you weren't out there doing something stupid?"

Bertram not fully understanding what she wanted, shifted to his large Kelpie form. But as she held her hand up, he got ready to attack. Teeth bared and eyes alert, he waited for the victim to show themselves.
~~~
Arran looked at their exchange amazed. She was still learning things about Angela. She looked between the two as they spoke. She finally sighed, "lore keeper, is that like a verbal history? Is it just doves or all shifters? "

Nektar was equally fascinated. The was Angela's demeanor changed, it intrigued him.
~~~
"Whenever you're ready." Graydon said as he flexed his wings and tail. "I don't want to sting anyone, but I'll sure make then think I will." He said in Kyra's mind.
~~~
Zypher rounded a corner and frowned as his heart sank at what he saw. Aurora's daughter. "Estelle?! How did he capture you? You were safe at Jackie's. What happened?" He asked quietly. (Is that okay?

)

When Ashton reached the corner, Anna grabbed her, pressing her against the wall and holding the dagger to her throat before recognition dawned on her and she released her, taking a step back "You!"
~~~
""It is a verbal history of all shifters" Angela said and smiled at Arran again "Since doves are not fighters and are a neutral party to any fights, we were decided to be the lorekeepers and remember all the stories for everyone."

"Your Dole was chosen to keep the histories and be protected from harm the first year. White doves were special even then in that they held the memories of all the other species the best. Why were you separated? Why was your training unfinished?" Ember asked curiously.

Angela flushed and looked down at her hands then took a deep breath before speaking again "The Guardians have been very busy and very spread out over the last few years. So many have disappeared or been killed, especially by those false shifters, the spiders, that our dole was threatened. The threat became more real and my grandfather took me to live in the village instead of in the forest, but when we arrived, we found that we were the only two there. Fearing for my safety and his health being worse, grandfather sent me on to the city to try to live there. Even with my visits in the group that was a part of early training, the city was scary and I almost turned back to the forest, but then I met a girl shifter there and she took me to her home for the night. We went out the next day to try to find out any information together but we were separated. I was captured and sent to a prison for shifters, but spent only a little time there before the new pack came to free and destroy. We all escaped and the prison was destroyed, but when I returned to the city, my friend had not yet returned, so I went to the park to wait there for further sign. The next day I was captured again and brought here" She told the tale well, and as clearly as she could. "If any of my dole is still alive and free, they will have gone to the sanctuary since the city is unsafe and the forest gone."

~~~
"I have been ready since I came here" Kyra quipped in reply then darted tot he door, slipping out and only waiting for him as she headed for the exit

~~~
Estelle stopped, taking a step back "Who are you? Who is Jackie?" She asked, confused at this meeting. To him it would seem like she had simply lost her memory, though to her she was being truthful. She didn't know who he was or why he knew her.

Jackie frowned then nodded and turned to go and grab her bag "Where are we meeting them at?" She asked curiously as she waited for Sergio to come out. She wasn't sure if she should bring her, but she didn't want to leave her behind either.

Ashton dropped her bag and was slammed aginst the wall, all is a blink of an eye. That was that dagger registered at the exact same moment recognition set in. But just that fast, she was released. Ashton rubbed her neck as she looked at Anna in confusion. "Anna, what are you doing here?" She asked stupidity. She then glanced over at the giant black horse thing with sharp teeth. "Um Bertram? " She asked nervously.
~~~
Nektar's heart hurt for Angela. She had been through so much. To think she had been captured and freed, only to be caught once more. How she stayed so positive was a wonder in it's self.

Arran looked at Angela dumbfounded. She held her tounge. She didn't want to interrupt the conversation out of respect. Let alone interfere in shifter matters.
~~
Grydon made it out the cage door and hurried to follow after her. All the while, watching for anyone that would come at them to stop them.
~~~
Zypher was confused. "What has Markus done to you? It's alright, I'm Zypher. Don't worry, we'll save you, Estelle. Your mother, Aurora will be glad to get you back....or did they also capture her?" He asked confused more then just a bit.

Jackdaw enjoyed the closeness. He slowly closed his eyes to better savor it.
~~~
Degan smiled softly at Zia as he gently scratched her furry cheek. "Thank you, for indulging me. You're a true friend." He replied thankful.
~~~
Ena tipped her head at Dust. "So it shall be." She said formally back. She'd spent half her time trying to figure out this complex Warg. Unfortunately to no avail. But she loved a challenge.

Dawn sighed and yawned. She found it very hard to stay awake but she forced herself to keep her eyes open. She enjoyed the silence.
~~~~~
Zia blinked and looked back to the sleeping girl. 'Degan must love her, to protect her like this' she thought.
~~~~
Dust gave a small nod before shifting to his Warg form. It seemed strange, talking to Ena rather than Aeval.

 

[NickyKnack]

Jackie frowned then nodded and turned to go and grab her bag "Where are we meeting them at?" She asked curiously as she waited for Sergio to come out. She wasn't sure if she should bring her, but she didn't want to leave her behind either. 

Cadeon looked at Jackie, while asking Nashton, "Where are you guys at?"

Nashton looked around for landmarks and said, " Um, we are in the parking lot of the outback steakhouse. Does Jackie know where that is?"
~~~
Sergio hurried to Jackie's side. She'd been listening to the whole thing. "Jackie, I can help you." She said softly.

 

[NickyKnack]

Dawn sighed and yawned. She found it very hard to stay awake but she forced herself to keep her eyes open. She enjoyed the silence.

Zia blinked and looked back to the sleeping girl. 'Degan must love her, to protect her like this' she thought.

Dust gave a small nod before shifting to his Warg form. It seemed strange, talking to Ena rather than Aeval. 

Jackdaw opened his eyes once more and looked deep into the dark forest. "Dawn, if you ever left this realm, would you ever come back?" He asked on a whisper. He'd found out, for the first time in his life, he was afraid of being alone again.
~~~
Degan looked around the strange room. So long he'd spent in his own room, that this one, was strange and unnerving to him. Plus it smelled strange. But then something occurred to him. "How did I get past the warding? I should be in agony right now." He said aloud. He felt his collar and it still didn't shock him. He gave it a strong tug and still nothing.
~~~
Ena stepped away to give him space as she decided to shift as well. Once in dragon form, Aeval looked at Ena and Pandora. It was going to take some getting used to, but it was a good decision. Ever since that fight with Nightmare, it had got her thinking about how selfish she had always been. They too deserved a life, not just an existence. She was drawn out of her thoughts, by the sensation of Pandora and Ena, hugging her neck with their own. She laughed happily and returned the gesture, by nuzzling each of them "I love you too." She said softly.

 

[chick-adee]

"Agreed. I'm just plain old awesome." He grinned cheekily,"I'm also fabulous. And humble too."
~~~
Kristen twisted back around and kissed him,"Lovable and so much more. Back rubs do help though." She teased then kissed him again,"Of all the billions of people in the world, how was I lucky enough to get you? You are my perfection. You make me feel complete like I was missing a limb or something before I met you. now that I have you it's impossible to think of myself without you."

"Oh, I believe the old part and I can definitely see that you're extremely humble, alright. " Enoch said sarcastically. But with a wide grin.
~~~
"The things you say about me. It makes me wonder if my feet will ever touch the ground again. But I feel the very same about you Kristen. " Orson whispered softly in her ear, before he nibbled on her earlobe.

"Old? Me? Says the guy who talks about centuries like they're only a couple years." He teased,"You're the old one here, grandpa."
~~~
Kristen shivered happily and snuggled into his arms,"You are perfect. That's the only way I can describe it. You make me feel so....." She sighed happily,"I can't describe that in words either." She smiled and nuzzled his neck.

Jackie frowned then nodded and turned to go and grab her bag "Where are we meeting them at?" She asked curiously as she waited for Sergio to come out. She wasn't sure if she should bring her, but she didn't want to leave her behind either. 

Cadeon looked at Jackie, while asking Nashton, "Where are you guys at?"

Nashton looked around for landmarks and said, " Um, we are in the parking lot of the outback steakhouse. Does Jackie know where that is?"

Nisha jumped out of her tree,"Hey! Wha'sup?"

Jackie came to her door, looking out into the hallway curiously as she reached it "What's going on?" She asked, unintentionally asking the same wuestion Nisha did before yawning

Cadeon looked between the two. Then took a deep breath and let it rip. "It would seem that Nashton and Taylor have successfully escaped from Menagerie and are now on the lamb with only their wits to get them through. Plus they har now the proud owners of two magically spelled collars and are in need of our help. But more importantly, your help Jackie. They didn’t want to lead the humans here, so we will have to go to them." He took a deep breath and added for Nisha's sake, "Now aren't you glad you weren't out there doing something stupid?"

"La vida loco? And I thought that you could sink no lower. I am amazing though! You could call me that!" She said dramatically flipping her hair.
(LOL!)

"Hello? I'm just stating the truth. You know that means 'the crazy life, right?' Both our lives have been pretty crazy. " Nashton lovingly stroked her hair as she flung other around like a bimbo. P)

"Yes, I know it means "the crazy life"." She let him stroke her hair. She loved when people played with her hair, it felt so good! Especially when Nashton played with her hair, it made her feel happy. She stood there shivering and let Nashton play with her hair.
~~~
"What? So now my sister is alone in the city with a collar, no money, no car, and a guy? Could this get any worse?" She frowned,"Don't answer that!" She stared at the phone but suddenly felt afraid. What if her sister didn't understand why they didn't come to get her? How would Nisha ever live with herself?

She said softly.

Dawn shifted then was silent for a long moment. "I believe I would." Amar, Navar, Absmi, and Jackdaw ...her entire flock was in this realm. Her mind went back to the different time zones. She would soon be three years in the human's age, and nineteen in the dogs. She wondered how old she was here, since everyone was immortal.
~~~~
Zia dropped to the floor and shifted. "Well, don't tug on it. It might come back on or something."
~~~~~~
Dust stood back and watched the three in curiousity. Affection was strange to him, since orc nor Warg hardly ever showed it.
