Alright adding on from when we headed into the forest. 

And also thinking that every shape shift is an Impuria and can shift into a myth creater. So Vanger is a Imperia. But, you see being able to shift into an Imperia creater is gift, that can be taken away. So now when he shifts he shifts into a large black dragon with red eyes. And those are called the Darks. When someone does something horrible with their Imperia then their created gets replaced with an evil dragon, and every time you shift into that dragon you loose a piece of your sole. 

Principal Summers can be halfway there or a Dark, and she just hasn't told the leaders of the Impuria yet.

Also maybe the leaders could be our parents. But they all have to live in our town. Because we are known as the shapeshifters. The Impira who is trying to stop the Darks from taking over the world the main Dark group called the DarkVangers. 

Tell me if you like guys!!!

Padding along, I thought of Tash and Jay, which one I liked. Jay....He was there first. But Tash....He is still here. Looking out for me. 

We set off into the forest about tenminutes ago. Tash ended up convincing me to come along. Jay was watching my back with piercing blue eyes, watching me and Tash with growing green envy. We were at the front of the group. I guess we just walk after then all the others, being able to turn into agile cats. Princible Summer's and Madi were close behind. Madi strode at a slower pace, glancing nervously at the fencing trees around us. 

And then I saw something shocking ahaid. "Are those....vines?" Tash asked, shocked..

We picked up the pace. Vines don't usually grow in our forests unless...."these are fake." Tash conference's my suspicions. And I grabbed onto one and found it was painted plastic. 

Suddenly Princible Summer's pushed past us. "We are here she announced, pulling away the plastic vines to show a door. It was locked.

And then an devilish grin escaped from her lips and she shift and grew, not into a swan, but a large black dragon. She showed portly white teeth at our shocked faces and slashed the door to shreds. Tash growled deep in his throat, shoulders tencing. With his power he could see something I couldn't. How many animals could she shift into?

Could all of us?  

We silently sleek through the door. Many turned into their animal. Me and Tash exchanged glances and stayed as we was. (Haha don't you just love my grammar. ;) I glanced back and saw Jay, bring up the rear, had shifted into a blue eyed panther. More threatening then his human form. I shuddered. 

We walked into a small room, the prison room I'm pretty sure, and to my surprise I saw Piper, hamster form, and a snake. A black snake. And Iridessa. In a cage in the corner. Princible Sumers looked around trumphetingly. "This was way too easy." I whispered. And someone voice my opinion. And then suddenly "UNLESS ITS A...." 

"A TRAP!" I yelled along with several others as the floor suddenly came up and swallowed us. I reached for Tash's hand as we're we're separated. 

Then I was thrown back in a cage. The door slammed shut and locked. Anger overcame me and I lashed at the cage, before even realizing I had transformed.

"You didn't think it would be that easy to brake in? We were expecting you." A tall burly man walked up to principle Summmer's cage. She stared at him with piercing eyes. "I know you all too well." 

And she roared, her white teeth flinging in the dim light. He simply laughed. "I always knew you were a Dark, Summer. Why didn't you join me when you had the chance?" 

He didn't wait for an answer. Instead a few burly boys walked in from the shadows, slamming shut the door. "Maxi...." Madi whispered, leaning on the bars. 

"Should've joined me when you had the chance." He repeated Vanger's words. 

And then the theird boy looked at me with a flicker of reconization. "You." He growled. 

And that's when I saw the hilt of the woo flinging at his side. "You!" I growled, claws digging into the cage.

He laughed, and then turned into a snarling Lepord, teeth flinging and claws as long as the whip.

Love it Claaws!

π Iridessa π

Chaos. Confusion. In the midst, Madi grabs my hand.

I flinch at the unexpected touch.

"Iris!" She yells. I don't bother to correct her. "Come on, can't you fight!?" "MY POWER is DREAMS. NOT death." "Just use this gun! It has sleeping darts!" 

In moments, our enemies lie dead. I turn away, sickened. 

~SJ

The door clicked open for the brefest second as Tash in his lynx form slid through and stopped at my paws. "Tash!" I roared, still in my jaguar form. Blood was seeping from his side. The lepord snarled, his claws long and dagger sharp....like the whip. 

His sharp yellow eyes peirced into my softer teal green eyes. Fear ingulfed me.

No. I had to stand strong. There are many of us....only three of them....right? I looked down at the cage and saw that it didnt close all the way. 

I let anger ingulf me again and i snarled, teeth bared, claws unleashed, and leaped head first into the gate. 

It burst open and without stopping I leaped onto the lepord and bit down on his neck. Hard.

Shocked, it took him a moment to respond to my attack. With a shake of his pelt he caught me off balance and lept off of him, teeth bared and claws digging into the ground. 

I herd someone banging and clawing on thejr cage nearby. I saw a black shape with frightened blue eyes staring at mw....an i ignored it. It was just me and this snarling brute. 

He lept, and suddenly his claws grew to twice their size and his teeth ao long they grew to his chin. I roared in response and ran underneath him, kicking up to peice my claws into his stomach. Off balance he fell in a heap of flailing paws onto the floor. 

And then a dart came out of no where and peirced his neck. He tryed to stagger up, but soon was knocked out cold.

Anger still welling inside i stepped up and placed a paw on his side. Blooded welled up an soaked my paws. Thwn i bent down and bit down on his neck. Hard.

When I stepped back, jaw dripping blood, he was no longer sleeping. He was dead.

And that's whwn I felt no humanity or sympathy inside.

I felt like a true predator.

Who just killed her pray. 

~ Tash

i can see the body of the leopard shapeshifter. Upon his death he had reverted to animal form. I felt sick. Because I had taken away his leopard he wasn't able to fight. I was still in linx form but I was still hurt, badly. SJ was there in jaguar form. She was shaking and I could see blood. "SJ" I whispered. She turned and looked at me. Then I realized that the blood wasn't hers, it was the leopard shifters. Suddenly SJ looked up and growled. Maxie and Vamger were coming in fast. Banger had already shifted into a dragon but I was still fast enough to keep Maxi as a human. I didn't try draining him though like I did to the leopard. I just blocked him. Again I fell onconcious, onLy this time I think it was from blood loss. 

I woke up sewating "it was just a dream" I let out a breath and climbed down the creacking stairs and went outside stepping out onto the soft warm grass beneth. I lay down and looked around the moonlight was shining showing the dew on the grass. Her house looked worn out and strange in the moonlight. I heared a footsteps approach her it was SJ. 

"Hey" She said sitting down next to me.

"Hey" I felt kind of aquard sitting to the used to be most popular girl.

Suddently she laughed.

"What?" I ask almost giggling  myself.

"Look at us."

"What about us?!" I say giggling and beaming.

"Both us missfits."

"You were popular." My grin turned into a frown. "And I was and still are a nobody."

"Dont be so hard on yourself."She ussered me. "I cant bielieve I wasnt friends with you in the first place!" She laughed. We spent a few more hours laughing and exchangeing jokes and/or comments. No one has ever made me feel so safe and happy.

"Sooooooooo what about you and Jay" i say inbetween giggles.

"Not much."

"Say who do YOU like?" She said mischievieously.

"I... I guess I never really felt anything likethat for a boy" I admit.

"Come on." She nudged my arm.

"REALLY!" I say.

"Fine." SHe says looking down.

"Its getting late" I comment. "We better get some rest."

"Ok Good night Lea" She says heading back towords her house.

"Good night SJ"  I say walking inside. As I step in I wave and She waves back. I smile and close the door. I trudge to my room suddently very tired and I look at my clock it read 11:00. I slowly close my eyes and drift into a world of sleep.

*facepalm* oops. Skiped over the last part on your post DRAGON when it said that he couldn't shidt back. So lets pretend in my post it said that he was a human trying to whip me and strangle me or slice my neck with the sharp blades or something. And that i saw the faintest trace of fear across hia eyes as he realized he couldn't transform. 

And Lea.....we kinda are in the middle of getting captured and all that so maybe you dreamed that and that getting captured was not thw dream? I mean, I Like it maybe we were friends in like 8th grade and then we got in a fight and I haven't been friends with you since? And maybe that was a memeory from before that or something?

Post later yall 

~SJ

I snarle threateningly as they advance. Vanger shifts into a large, black dragon, eyes red and soless. Maxi stays human, and I wonder if Tash is blocking him. 

The predator inside of me wells up again and I puff out my chest and roar like a lion overlooking his land. 

Maxi stops suddenly, and looks over towards the cages. I follow his gaze. Madi is helping Iridessa out of her cage, and the hamster and snake had disappeared. The dark gun is in Madi's hand. 

Seeing that Vanger had hesitated too, I took this time to run foward and bang into Maxi's chest. The air is knocked from him as he falls to the ground. Vanger snarls, turning towards me. "What's your power, jaguar? Why does it make you so strong?" This predatory instinct, was this my power taking over me? Or just the shape shifter inside of me? 

Maxi squirms underneath me and then suddenly pushes up with the strength of a wolf.....No he is a wolf. Tash must have loosened his grip on him. My eyes dart over and I see blood....blood...blood....

This triggers something inside and I snap into focus. No not human focus, animal focus.

Andthen suddenly I wasn't me anymore. I was a jaguar. An invading jaguar. I marked this as my land, and this wolf thought he could steal it? These were my prey. Is he challenging me? 

I lept towards onto his back, digging my claws into his tangles fur and immediately going for the death blow. He shook me off with a snarl. I thuded to the ground, and he placed a paw on my rib cage. I snarled, eyes dialated, and flailed my sharp paws at his underbelly. He pushed down harder as I tried to get up. 

Something unknown to me was wailing pathetically in the background. I roared and snarled, suddenly distracted to look at the panther clawing at the cage nearby. And I saw him as another predator out to seek my territory.

Hunt.

Kill.

Destroy.  

~Jay

I roared and whinned, watching as Madi's brother slowly started crushing SJ. "No! Let me out! Let me fight for her!" 

Suddenly she whisked her head over to stare at me with an inhuman glare. Her puiples were dialated, the green unable to be seen. Her once shimmy white muzzle was soaked in her enemy's blood and her fangs stuck from her lips in an evil snarl. Her whiskers were still dripping blood and her ears were back in an enemy challenge. 

This wasn't SJ. I stepped back from the cage, shocked. I stepped into the shadows as I herd the words echo my hypothesis. "Stop. She's gone savage. She isn't even fighting for them anymore, just herself. Bring her with me, and I will tell you what to do with her."

My eyes went wide as the just strode from the room. Vanger had given Maxi a dart gun to dart hee with and she dragged loosely on the ground. 

A door shut from somewhere far down a hallway. I locked eyes with Madi across the room who was standing next to a skinny and tired Iridessa. The dart gun was gone and a long gash proceded down Madi's face.

And then suddenly the cages unlocked and clattered all around us. "Iridessa!" Mrs. Summers, now in human form rushed towards her daughter and embraced her in a warm hug. The shapeshifters talked amongst each other, shocked on what they had just witnessed. I pawed across the floor to the dead lepord and kicked his bloody lifeless body. SJ had done this. Sweeet, unharming SJ. 

And then I remembered Tash.

"Tash!" I yelled, thrusting away the bars of the cage and revealing his tampered, bloodstained pelt. I grabbed him by the scruff, felt a puls, dragged him across the room and dropped him by Mrs. Summers. She pulled away from Iridessa, her smile falling. "We need to leave, now. If he's to survive."

I wake up 

"oh great another dream" I am falling suddenly i hit something hard i open my eyes it is morning a am in an aquard position on the floor i pinch myself to make sure this isnt a dream. nope its real i sigh what aa wierd dream i look at my alarm clock "ACK IM LATE" i shreek as i run and get ready as i dash aout the door "huh odd" no one is here suddently principal summers walks past me.

"oh hello Lea I was just looking for you. Step into my office will you"

I nod and as i step into the office she locks the door behind me.

"youre a shape shifter areent you..." she says

"H-how-"

"I have a few of your 'friends' with me at a certin acadamy..."

"WHAT!"

"join me or... your friends die..."

"... fine i'll go as long as you dont hurt them..."

(srry i Suck at rping )

Also....she's somewhere else at the moment....

I drew a pic of SJ! Hope you like.

Hehe, am I making this too confusing to keep up with? Here, this next post will explain somethings I came up with while reading over my last post. 

~Jay

We silently walk out the metal door and into the dark, cool night. My fur swayed and fluffed in the night breeze, and I couldn't help a glance back towards the hiden building. 

To SJ.

MY heart sank deeper into my chest as we kept walking silently into the forest. Most of the shapeshifters were day animals, and their feet were dragging and head drooping. I was wide awake though. Listening intentaly for pursuit, eyes reflecting the moon. I was taking up the rear, Madi in the lead, forging a path in her cheeta form.

Princible Summers was walking ahaid of me, in dragon form, holding Tash by the scruff in her jaws.

Finally we broke from the forest. The moon shown off of the school. We all started towards it, and then Madi lead us away and back into another part of the forest. I stopped before entering. The rest of the shape shifters were too tired to question her, but I wasn't. "Mrs. Summers? Where are you taking us?"

She looked back at us, her white eyes glttering and her black scales reflecting the moon. "To the impuria." She mummbled over her mouthfull of fur.

I followed silently without another word. But quetsions still flew inside my head. What was the Impuria? What is going to happen to SJ?

Whats going to happen to all of us?

Finally, so deep in the forest that the trees covered every inch of the sky, Madi's glowing eyes the only light we saw, I heard Summers shiffle her feet and in a loud voice say, "we have arrived."

And then suddenly a thousnad little lights around us lit up, revealing a dark building incased in dark ivy. I saw that Princible Summers had changed back into a human, Tash, still in his lynx form, slung across her arms. "Follow me, all of you."

She lead us to a space covered in ivy. I was expecting a door, but when she pulled the ivy asside it revealed a long tunnle streaching into darkness. "Mom...what is this place?" I heard small Iridessa murmmer frightfully. 

"Dear don't be frightened, its a place where all of you will be safe."

And then she set off into the dark cave. As she did the small lights around us turned off. And more furter into the tunnle turned on. We quickly scampered after her.

The tunnle was creaky and a driping sound echoed throughout it. The hairs along my back stood on end as we walked farther into the tunnle. Finally we came apone an old looking door, with no handle. Mrs. Summers placed her hand on it, and after it beebed turned into a swan. It beeped again and swong open. 

We all walked in after Mrs. Summers, amazed. This was nothing like the last base we went into. No not at all. It was made of white marble, and carvings and paintings of every creater you could think of were desplayed along the walls. There was even a large fountain in the middle with a marble swan spreading its wings in the middle. "Wow...." Iridessa gasped, her voice echoing along the empty space.

No, it wasn't empty. Some of the statues were moving, yes moving, turning to look at us. We walked up to the swan, and Mrs. Summers, still a swan, flew up and toughed its forehead with her wing. (If your wondering where Tash is, Madi is carrying him now). Slowly the swan started melting into the water fall. As it did the waterfall parted to show a pathway going downwards. "You may get a little wet," Mrs. Summers warned, turning back into a human and taking Tash gentaly from Madi. Madi jumped into the pathway, followed by a hesitant Iridessa, followed by the rest of them. I stood watching. Mrs. Summers glanced back at me and guestred for me to go in. Hesitantly I stepped up, and walked down the winding pathway. I looked back and saw Mrs. Summers walk through, and ten the pathway closed to darkness.

We blindly walked down the stares, no not blindly, there was a light coming from somehwere ahaid. And when we rounded the corrner the light was extrushanatingly blinding. I blinked for a few seconds and Princible Summers passed me to walk into the roomy offic and lay Tash down on a rug. "Madi bring him to The Healer. I need to talk to them."

She nodded, picked Tash up by the scruff and dashed out a doorless walkway. "Alright." Princible Summers started, guestering for us to sit down. I stood standing, looking over them with two feet still on the last stare. "You might be wondering what happened to SJ. It might seem a little confusing....I'll start with this. She didn't go savage." I stiffened. What did they do to her this time? "She is what we call....a reverse shape shifter. Instead of being borne a human...she was borne a jagaur. You see, shapeshifting can work both ways. A human a turn into an animal, but animals can also turn into other animals. SJ was boren a jagaur, probably in a zoo around here, and truned into a huamn at a younge age without knowing how to turn back. Someone probably spotted her in the encloser and told an athority who brung her out of it, wondering how she got there. When no one claimed her she was probably put up for adoption and was adopted by her recent mother. She was taught our ways and forgat that she was ever a jagaur, forgeting she was a shape shifter if she ever knew she was i the first place. When she stayed as a jaguar for that long of time, she changed. She changed back into the way she was when she was younger, therefore forgetting everything she knew as a human. SHe also could've been trigered back to herself by a memory, blood, dead meat, killing."

"IS there a way we can get her human self back?" I asked, shocked.

Princible Summers nodded. "Yes, though its difficult and requires effort. We must remind her of what she was like as a human. ANd after awhile of doing so she might be able to be both jagaur and the human life we created for her. But since we can't get to her because of the DarkVagners, we need to acess her through dreams."

She looked over to Iridessa.
