forward dated to the night of March 11 in the Shiloh Hills. Don't feel you have to match this length at all XD 500+ The young Aatte male had been restless all day long. Nothing was able to distract or satisfy him. He would start one activity only to get fed up with it and give up. It was strange and so not like him. His usual happy demeanor was gone and he had avoided the company of others all day. Anyone he came across he knew that he would be annoyed with them and he didn't want to make any of his friends or family upset with his foul mood. The worst part was that he had no idea why he felt this way. There had been some tension lately. Both of his mothers had been gone a lot and he could barely remember the last time he had seen them together. It gave him an uneasy feeling in the pit of his stomach. That had been bothering him a lot, but there was more than just that today. Finally when the sun set Haven decided that if he stayed inside the borders of the pack any longer he was going to lose his mind. The well muscled youth ran into the woods of Shiloh Hills, leaving the border of Crimson Dreams far behind him. He didn't stop running until he was almost ready to fall down. Sitting down in a small clearing his pink tongue lolled out of his mouth while he panted heavily. What in the world was going on with him? The burnt orange kid whined softly to himself. He didn't like feeling this way! He wanted to be happy and content again. The cloud cover parted and the light of the moon shined down over the youth. Jade eyes looked to the bright night orb. It was perfectly round. He didn't know if he had ever seen it look so big and bright before. Then suddenly an urge came over one. It felt similar to the instinct to hunt, yet it was completely different at the same time. Eyes closed and he laid down on the forest floor. Pain shot through him and he could feel his bones and muscles grow and move around. Despite how uncomfortable this was, Haven didn't want to stop. Somehow he knew that he needed to do this. That he wanted this. It took about fifteen minutes and then it all stopped. The pain and his shifting body. The boy's eyes opened back up and he pushed himself back up into a sitting position. Something was...different though. He felt strange. Then he looked down at what had moments ago been his front paws and saw that now they were hands. Bringing the strange appendages up to his face he examined them, a smile growing on his lips. He had shifted! White hair hung down over his eyes and he could feel the mane brush against the back of his neck and the top of his shoulders when he moved his head. He couldn't believe this, it was amazing! He just continued to sit there in awe, unsure what to do next. |
