Street Kids

Kira looked at the girl and then hissed protecting her food. She tried to act like a cat. Shifting into a human girl now would be a killer for her. She didn't want that happening. She looked at the people meowing kind of protectivly as if to her food.
 
"Well," said Jason. "I've seen stranger things. But that's definitely a cat." He squatted back down, to look closer at the feline. Its fur was matted and it covered up scraps of food protectively; Jason felt a little sorry for it. It would be nice to have a cat, wouldn't it?


He refrained from talking to the feline, however. He didn't want to sound young. Or calling it cute, or naming it, or anything else a normal 13 year old might do with a cat. "Hm," he said, noncommittedly.
 
Kira looked at them both and then meowed again. She started to eat her food much quicker. Once she had it all done she licked her nose. Se meowed again and turned around to leave. She stretched out her whole body and then slowly started walking.
 
Sheena too is staring towards the cat, her shoulders tensed; with her Lycan senses, she can tell, as with May, that this is no cat, that she is in fact at least partly human. "That's a person. Why are you hiding yourself...and where are all you shapeshifters COMING from?" she directs this to May too, before looking back at the cat. "Give it up. We know you're not a cat."
 
Kira sighed deeply. "I don't know....I'm just a shape shifter....Yes I'm not really a cat but I can't turn human right now can I?" She said sitting down looking at them all. "Not with the male present anyways." She said stretching out again. "I turn into a cat to get free food from sorry looking humans. It works quite well." She sighed again.
 
Jason was just about to say something along the lines of "Well, I guess you two might be crazy. Who am I to judge?"


Then the cat started talking.


He stared dumbfounded while the cat spoke, then- a late reaction- stumbled backwards and shouted out, "Well sh*t!" He hit the wall, then slid down, landing on the floor. "What the- what-" he stared at the cat, who looked calmly at him. "Well...well sh*t," he said again, for lack of something else. He looked over at the girls; "Did the cat just talk?" he turned; "Did you just talk? Oh my God, I'm sitting in a room with a talking cat." His laugh was shaky. "Yeah, that's perfectly normal." He didn't take his eyes off the feline, however. My God, a talking cat. What do you know.


He thought vaguely that he might be hyperventilating. He assured himself, of course not. Just a talking cat. Yeah, just a talking cat.


Yeah, he was hyperventilating. He forced himself to stop, then looked between the girls and the feline. He couldn't say anything else.


Was he still hyperventilating? No, he didn't think so.


Sh*t, a talking cat.
 
Kira looked at the dude and then walked over. "Hey dude chill...I'm not just a talking cat you know." She said and sat by his feet. "But like I said if I changed human...well you could guess what will happen." She laughed a bit then looked at the girls. She then looked at the guy. "Um I'll be back..." She said and then looked at the girls. "I got to get my clothes."
 
"...Right," said Jason, frozen in his position. "Uh. Yeah."


He was still shocked. Who wouldn't be? A talking cat. Or, a... human who could turn into a cat.


Sh*t, he thought, ​that's even worse.
 
(Lol I love mr. Grin's character lol)


Kira tilted her head and jumpped on him. She sat down again. "I would think this normal....why are you so afraid?" She asked looking at the younger boy. SHe made sure her claws weren't out. Confused at his reaction. "I'm Kira...may I ask your name?"
 
Jason jerked backwards when the cat jumped on him, hitting his head on the hard wall. "Oh, uh," he reached up to run his head, keeping his other hand away from the feline. "Hey, Kira. I'm, uh, Jason. And, uh, you know, uh, it's not really every day I... uh... meet a talking cat. You know? I was just... uh, surprised. You know."


He was finding it hard to speak and think Oh my God there's a talking cat on my lap ​at the same time.
 
Kira looked at him and then chuckled a bit. "Sorry..." She looked at him and then her tail twitched behind her. "I'm just a talking cat....do I really have to repeat that I'm a shifter?" She chuckled and then ran off. She got her clothes and then turned into a large dog her clothes fitting on the dog just as well as if she was human. WHen she returned she turned human. Her clothes fitting her purfectly. She got her hair out of her clothes. "Nice to meet you Jason." She said holding out her hand to him.
 
"Oh. Hi," said Jason, waving half-heartedly. The girl that had just appeared; her voice was, indeed, the same as the cat's. He looked down, where traces of cat hair proved the feline's existence. "Um. Shifter. You can turn into animals?" he asked. His mind flipped through all the novels he had read, remembering the ones that had included this power. What was that one series called? "That's... uh, cool... I guess."


Animorphs. That was it. He remembered reading it a long, long time ago. He had been a silly young kid back then, looking out the window and thinking that the passing flock of swallows were in fact the Animorphs, in bird form. He'd waved to them and shouted hello. But they'd never responded.


This was quite different. Here she was, standing in front of him, hair speckling her clothes and regarding him curiously. Right out of the fantasy books.
 
Kira chuckled at him. "I can turn into almost anything...even other people." She said kneeling down to his level at the moment. "Sorry for scaring you...but those girls found me out." Smiling she tilted her head. "You looked a lot older when I was a cat." She chuckled.
 
"Guess that makes, uh, sense," said Jason, moving his eyes to stay focused on Kira. "Like, anything? No matter how small or big?"


He was beginning to recover from the shock, and you know what- being a shifter really would be pretty damn cool. Jason couldn't believe it. Well, he could, but- nevermind. He cleared his head, and looked over at the girls on the mattresses.
 
Kira looks and nods. "Yes no matter how big or small." She said looking at his line of sight. She tilted her head a bit then sighed deeply. Slowly sitting down she looked at the young man and the two younger looking girls.
 
Sheena has been watching this exchange with narrowed eyes; now she speaks up, saying abruptly, "There are only three mattresses, you two share or fight over who gets the third....if one of you has drugs or weapons, you're not welcome here. If one of you tries anything, and I mean anything, you'll be sorry." She doesn't reveal that she and May are also shapeshifters, not yet. She just lets her eyes drift between them, maintaining an intense expression, then is embarrassed when this is interrupted by her sneezing twice. Sniffing, she wipes her nose quickly on her wrist, quickly returning her expression to guarded, as though daring someone to make fun of her.
 
Kira looked at her and then blinked. "Wait share a one with who?" She said and then looked at the boy then back at her. "..." She stood up tall rubbing the back of her head. "...Nope none of that."
 
"Well I'm not sharing with anyone, and May and me were here first, so unless she wants to share, which I doubt, you two can duke it out over that last one," she said pointedly, then sighed, sniffing again and sitting up straighter. She knows by now there's no way she could go back to sleep even if she wanted to. "May, I thought no one came here ever," she muttered.
 
Kira looked at the boy and sighed deeply. "Of course." She looked around. She sat down not exackly comfortable with the idea. She sighed and looked at the floor. "Well...I could always just stay in cat form I guess." She grabbed her hair starting to play with it.
 
"How do you talk in cat form?" Sheena blurted; when she is in her Lycan form, she is unable to do so, and is mystified as to how Kira manages. "I mean, I thought...what I heard,' she says carefully, still not yet revealing to the newcomers her Lycan status, "that people can't talk in their animal forms."
 
Kira looked at her and smiled. "Well if I can shift from one animal to another....I can shift my vocal cords separately. I can growl like a wolf while still being in human form. I can talk in animal form by doing this." She said leaning back on the wall. "I hope that explains that." She said happy that she knew how to do it.
 
"Huh." Sheena thinks about this, wondering to herself if her ability is limited because she can only shift to the form of a wolf, not anything, like it appears that May and Kira can. She hesitates, then says slowly, "I'm Legs." She knows that May knows her as Sheena, but if she calls her Sheena in front of them, well, they'd figure out her double names then.
 
Kira nodded and then smiled. "Ok legs." She said and leaned forward and then stretched out quite tired. "Well um..." She pulled her legs in. "Like I said...I'm Kira." She added wondering why she wasn't shocked that she was a shifter and smiled bringing it up. "You two seemed unfazed about my ability..." He didn't finish just putting out the fact to signal she had noticed.
 
Sheena shrugs, her voice still careful, as she exchanges a glance with May, unsure if May is willing to reveal this of herself. "Yeah, well, sometimes some people already know about that kind of thing."
 
Kira nodded still having a bit of an idea why. She relaxed a bit and sighed deeply. "It's been a long time having anything like this." She said stretching out her legs. She didn't want to get to confortable incase the guy didn't want her around to much or share the matress.
