Before Jake can react, you leap up the stairs and run out of the front door; you find yourself running on all fours, but it doesn't bother you at all, it feels natural. You run down the street and turn the corner; you jump the nearby fence into your girlfriends back yard. You see Aleshia sitting on the porch, drinking something. You hide in the bushes and watch her for a moment to see if there is anyone else there. As you watch, you find yourself imagining her with raccoon ears and a tail. You suddenly realize what you are doing and shake the thoughts from your head. You crouch down and crawl a little closer. You make sure you are speaking english and call to her. She recognizes your voice because she looks out over the back yard and calls your name. You call again and she asks where you are. You slowly move out of the bushes so she can see you. She lets out a gasp and her eyes go wide, but she covers her mouth and walks to you. You stand up and let her walk to you. She asks what happned and you explain as best you can; you leave out the part about Jake. She looks around and then tells you to come upstairs with her. You follow her, walking almost uncomfertably on two legs. You go up to her room, where she sits on the bed and you fall to your knees on her floor. You look up at her with pleading eyes an ask her to do something.
