Fantasy The Shifters

[Ananfal]

Only a few minutes after being laid down again, Kira awoke with a start. She instantly let out a pained whimper as the sudden action sent pain shooting up her injured shoulder. There was some sort of cloth wrapped around it, she noticed, and as she directed her gaze a bit further, she also noticed the abnormally large tiger standing near her. Obviously this was a shifter, no tiger of that size would be free in the city. Unable to shift back to human form due to the bullet still inside her body, she growled at the tiger lightly to get his attention.

 

[CrimsonEclipse]

"You're awake." He said. Well, not exactly said, more of a psychic conversation. He can only receive and transmit the thoughts of others, he cannot pry inside their minds, not yet. "Here, drink this." He said, nudging a bowl of water towards her. The panther was in obvious pain and discomfort. "I'm Sebastian, what's your name?" He ask, watching her drink.

 

[Ananfal]

Gratefully lapping at the water she was given, Kira tried to figure out how to speak back to the tiger. Obviously his gift was that of speech in the animal form, just as hers was control over shadows. The trick was how to use it to reply. Finally she settled for simply thinking loudly at him and if that didn't work, well then paw gestures would have to do. "My name is Kira. Thank you for your help. May I ask for your assistance in yet another matter?" She thought formally.

 

[CrimsonEclipse]

He chuckled, amused at her response. "No need to be formal, I'm not some prince or something." He replied to her. She's a beautiful creature, sleek black coat, glowing yellow eyes. "What do you need help with?" He asks, moving to her side.

 

[Ananfal]

Carefully reaching around with her head, she tore the cloth away from her shoulder, revealing her wound. "The bullet is still inside." She thought at him. "In order to shift back to my humans form, I need you to remove it. Normally I would do it myself but the angle is such that I would end up clawing my shoulder off should I try." She glanced back at him, laying down to make it easier for him. "I'll do my best not to make a sound." She promised him.

 

[CrimsonEclipse]

He nods, his claws extending. The claws are now 8 inches long, sharp and long. "This is going to hurt." He said as he plunged his claws into the wound. He heard her whimpering, grimacing in pain. He tried to find the bullet, but he could not feel it. Finally, he felt the crumpled ball of metal and pulled it out. He wrapped her wound in bandage. "Finished." He said, the bullet in his paws.

 

[Ananfal]

Out of breath and trembling from the pain that racked her body, Kira simply lay there for a few moments, breathing and regaining control over her body. Finally she got up, testing her shoulder with a grimace. "It won't heal for a few days but it'll do." She thought to herself. Glancing up at Sebastion, she gave him a feline grin full of sharp teeth. "Thank you for your assistance." She thought to him. "I'll make sure to return the favor some day." Glancing up at the moon, she felt a bit dramatic. So instead of simply jumping off the building, she activated her own powers. Shadows writhed around her like dark flames before fully enveloping her body. When they sank back into the roof, the blank panther was gone.

 

[The Darkling]

Freyja had fallen asleep on the roof after awhile, the bag she kidnapped tucked closely to her for protection. Though if anybody came near she would be ready and awake in no time. But sometimes having sensitive hearing could be a pain in the arse.

XJune went back inside to wrap his wrist. He threw the knife back into the wall and went to the bathroom, he wrapped his wrist and his leg from the fox lady's bite, matted blood was he toughest part to wash off. He finished and got in the shower.


'Still 7 lives left...only 7...' He thought to himself. 'Thankfully none of those...shifters got lucky today...' He began thinking of his actions, 'Was all that really worth...that?' He though looking at the bite mark on his leg. 'I need a...break...' XJune exited the shower and dressed in some boxershorts and laid down on his bed, he let the nighttime breeze flow in through the balcony door.


'7 lives left, met 3 shifters today...no money gained. Rent=late. I'm gonna take a break tomorrow, maybe take a walk around. Hopefully none of those shifter recognize me.' He wrote in his journal. He then shifted into his cat form and drifted off into a light sleep with the balcony door still open.

 

[The Darkling]

Freyja's eyes fluttered open and they glimmered with the light of the moon, reflecting red light on the roof. She yawned and stretched, arching her back and stretching her arms above her head. She should probably get back to her place soon. At least before the light came up. she always spent the day time relaxing or sleeping. She was a night owl after all. She looked around with her sight and noticed that the area was pretty much clear from other special shifters. Standing up she tucked the bag into her belt hook, tying it down tightly as she took off across the roofs.
