His eyes scrutinized my enlarged form probably wondering the same question that was currently stirring in my mind.

Once my name flew out of his mouth, I sat my furry butt on the hard ground like an obedient dog and watched his every move. He hadn't moved from his crouched position, which, looked uncomfortable to be stuck in.

"How?" He wondered looking at my form in astonishment. I attempted to perform a shrugging action but realized it might have looked like my head as disappearing into my shoulder fluff. He stood up to his towering height while his eyes never left me. In my beast form, I was taller than my human form by about an inch or so.

I perched up from my seated form and walked towards my unconscious human body, pointing at it with my snout. Finn looked lost, he must have known what I was trying to say yet he couldn't figure it out.

How do I get out of this stupid form!

I so desperately wanted to scream out, but those few words only ricochet around my empty head.

Focus.

My head perked up when the sharp tone of a female voice few into my brain. I disregarded Finn as I looked around the premises for the person this voice belonged to.

Sleep.

Only five letters, yet so powerful I felt my eyes shut against my will and my beastly body tumble to the floor. I was out like a light.

I flinched as my body regained consciousness and felt the rough dirt against my skin roughly prodding at it. I rolled out my tense shoulders and slowly rose from the ground. My eyes squeezed shut once more before I realized I was back in my human form. Neila's small form groggily walked into the pocket of my sweater.

"What happened?" I slurred out, questioning no one as I rubbed at the sore spot on my scalp.

"You...Changed?" Jovanni's dry, cracked voice said. I turned to look at his form still resting on the cold hard ground in the same position he was in when Finn dropped him.

"I shifted, but how? I was told I'd never be able to." I looked down at my body in wonder. I was told I could never shift as my wolf spirit is occupying another body. I would have the small traits of a werewolf, like the vision and the smell, but I wasn't informed of anything else.

"I need to speak with Jayei." I pushed myself up ready to walk the short distance towards her house when a hand shot out and stopped me.

"We don't have time, they're looking for you guys." Finn pushed me behind a thick tree and poked his head out. I followed his lead and saw two heavily suited humans walking around the perimeter with flashlights attached to their guns.

"We have to move since they're distracted we have time," I told the two grown men hiding close by. I took the first movement and was again stopped by Finn.

"No, look," He pointed at their helmets which I just noticed had a higher level of technology I've ever seen before. Their entire suit of armour looked technologically improved which means that its possible they have some sort of device enabling them to hear far distances.

"They could even pick up our voices if we're too loud, Keep it quiet," Finn ordered, His Beta rank seeping through his tone. I refrained from rolling my eyes at his authoritative voice.

"Jovanni, can't you create a rock or something to distract them?" I asked Jovanni who was on the other side of Finn. He was standing tall but made no effort to hide behind a tree.
