A small, silver tabby with emerald colored eyes perched atop the tree trunk. Her small tail flicking back and forth as she watched the people going by. Her eyes had the human look though, round pupils. Oh wait, I know why.
That cat was me.
I let out a soft meow, I leaped from the tree with ease and landed on all my four paws. I felt myself being picked up by a little boy and I hissed, he dropped me and ran. I sighed softly and hid behind the tree. Re emerging was a pretty girl. With brown chocolate colored hair, a slim build, and the same emerald eyes as the cat. This girl, who was me, was wearing a nice, flimsy silk like shirt with a semi-low cut in the front. She had on some nice darker jeans and her hair was draped around her shoulders. Her shoes where plain black flats. Cruddy for running, but it was easier to run as a dog or a cat anyways.
I smiled as a larger cat came up and rubbed against my legs. Animals liked me, seeing as I could be one of them if I chose. It wasn't at all a bad thing. I could speak their langauge too, many languages, types of animals, some different human ones. I had to learn quite a bit if I wanted to become a good Shapeshifter. My human look was my main look, you could find me in that mostly because it was my original form. If I was originally a cat turned shapeshifter, my eyes would be like a cat. Our eyes never change.
I felt the wind brush my hair backwards and I sat on a bench, I looked at the sky,which was full of clouds. In my pocket I held a card, showing that I was supposably human, in case a policeman comes. Shapeshifters aren't allowed to let humans know of their gift, last time a full blown Shapeshifter did this they where taken away to be a science experiment. I wasn't planning to be one of those anytime soon.
Shapeshifters had this strange aura that no human could see. Shapeshifters could see if clearly among others and Vampires sometimes could see, but I didn't know much, I hadn't met many creatures since I fully changed into a Shapeshifter. Which sucked. It got lonely, when a shapeshifter turned seventeen we stopped aging, like vampires, we had forever life. Ways of killing us wasn't easy like vampires also, chopping our heads off or burning us to death was the only ways. We healed quick, loss of blood? A vampire could drink our full bloodstream and our Shapeshifter matabolisim filled it with blood again. We where an easy meal for a vampire, we kept coming back with more blood to drink, and our blood was the same as humans.
Which is why we don't like to spread what we are. Vampires aren't stupid though, you can tell a Shapeshifter by what I said before, an aura. It's sort of like a sixth sense, near a shapeshifter you can see a small glow reflecting off their body. Vampires usually could see it, Other creatures sometimes could, as I said, it always depends.
I sat at the park bench and gazed up at the cloudy sky, we Shapeshifters could stand the sun, Vampires used us for that, forcing us to get their prey in the sun. We could try, but with Vampires speed and their knowledge of what we are they could control us better. Which sucked, alot. No wonder my mom said she always stayed inside. Much safer. But I was more daring than her. So here I was.
Out in the open.
