The sudden dark takes time for you to adjust to. Once you can see, you test your new
body. It is very muscular and powerful, but not quite solid. You try using one of your
powers and push your hand against your chest. It makes contact. You imagine your
hand going through your body and find your arm halfway through your heart. You pull
back in shock. You try to materialize by a rock a few feet away and see it disappear.
"What?" you think. But then you look down and see the rock below your feet. You try
shapeshifting. You think of becoming a tree, and find yourself much taller and very
stiff. Obviously, your powers take only a slight thought to occur. But what if you aren't
thinking of a sword passing through your ribs. You decide to pick up a rock and throw
it straight up. You use all your strength and hurl it straight up. You quickly look down
and think of something else. You hear the rock hit the ground directly below you. Your
body seems to be able to recognize danger before your mind processes it. You looked
over at Terel talking to Princess Aliya and Geoffery. You feel chilled and think of a
warm fire. No sooner had you thought that than fire was being generated from your
hands. You yipp in surprise and Terel appears beside you.
"Oh yeah," he said,"I knew I was forgetting something. Flame generation. Useful."
He disappeared again and you found yourself quite confused. Terel didn't seem to be
a very big talker. Short answers and straight to the point. That could get annoying. And
he was forgetful on top of that! You runover your list of powers in your mind:
intangibility, teleportation, shapeshifting, pyrogeneration, and possesion. And not
forgetting the life or death contract of loyalty. In a matter of minutes, you had changed
from a normal human running scared shitless through the woods into an anthro
raccoon with amazing powers. What more could happen in a day? Oh yeah, you were
supposed to protect an entire civilization from some apparently evil guy named Ulnok.
Terel appeared beside you again.
"Alright, they've agreed to take you back to the camp. Tomorrow you will inspect the
troops and create a plan. All the species of the forest are counting on you to defeat
the werewolf army."
"Wait! Species? Werewolves?"
"Yes didn't I tell you? Ulnok is the leader of the werewolves and has attacked every
type of creature in the forest in hopes to control it all."
"No you didn't tell me!"
"Oh well, now I have. Good luck!"
And with that he disappeared.
