Now that is a good question (Shikyo any char)

[Deleted]

Adnaha soared as a hawk far up in the sky eying the strange places below. She dove down and swiftly she was a blue cheetah her legs hit the ground with a thump and she was off.

Her eyes narrowed when she smelled something headed her direction. She needed to change form as not to arouse suspicion or wind up being hunted, but knew that to do so would draw attention to herself.

Unlike a real cheetah she was not colored to fit in so simply laying down in the dead grass would be useless. She could play dead but it was humiliating. She scanned the landscape quickly. Ah! A bush!

She dived into it and froze there hoping the bright blue of her pelt wouldn't show through the thin branches of the large tumbleweed. Now she could hear it. Something was breathing...

She remained frozen. Her now golden eyes restlessly scanning the landscape in hopes of seeing whatever it was.

[Shikyo]

Shikyo's son, Jordon was walking around exploring the area. Like his father, he loved to travel and explore. He looked around to see if he can find anything unusual. After all, the best part of exploring is finding things most people don't.

[Deleted]

Adnaha could see a vague silhouette but it still didn't help that much. She stayed crouched and checked her position. Her tail was sticking halfway out of the bush but to move it now would make a loud snapping noise. She sank down even lower, based on the fact that whoever it was appeared to be looking for something bright blue spots in a tumbleweed would easily be noticed.

Her ear flicked and she knew that if he, it smelled male enough, was really paying attention, no matter what she did now she would be spotted. Her golden eyes now rested on the silhouette as it moved about.

[Shikyo]

Jordon kept looking around wondering if there was something near. He smelled something, but wasn't sure if it was a creature or not. "If someone's there, come on out," he said. "I don't want to hurt you. I'm just exploring this place to try and meet other creatures and to enjoy exploring."

[Deleted]

Adnaha shifted, hesitating, before coming out. Her tail snapped a branch and the initial rustle wasn't all to bad. He smelled like werewolf and bore a slight resemblance to Shikyo but she said nothing anyways.

If he was related and had been told of her, he would know. If not he could always ask. She was still unsure but she had come out anyway so there was no tuck tail and run now.

She sat there expressionless staring at him. The feline behavior easy in this form.

[Shikyo]

Jordon turned and saw her come out. He showed no sign of knowing who she was, but he did seem interested. "Wow," he said. "I've never seen anything like you before. Can you speak?"

[Deleted]

Adnaha did a gesture similar to rolling her eyes then spoke "Yes I can speak. How else would I know what you said?"

Cause I'm sure not a telepathic. She added in her head. Her golden eyes stayed on him as he looked at her. He seemed very interested in her, seeing her for what she was right now, a blue and black cheetah. That ought to be something one doesn't see everyday.

[Shikyo]

"Sorry to offend you," Jordon said. "I only asked because it's hard to tell if a creature can speak. Sometimes I think others can but they only speak an animal language. I suppose that's still speaking, but that's besides the point. Anyway, I'm Jordon Kiba."

[Deleted]

She paused, she had sounded offended? "No, that's more my fault. As a cheetah it is hard to speak human languages. I am Adnaha Ilin La'ahadin."

That was the worst mix up on accent and inflection she had ever done. It was quite embarrassing really. Panthers were easier. Her ears tilted slightly back and her eyes closed an she did her best to smile without looking angry.

[Shikyo]

"Nice to meet you, Adnaha," Jordon said. "Do you live around here at all? I'm just exploring here so I don't know what lives here and what doesn't."

[Deleted]

"Sorry no, I'm a traveler. After a good look around though, I could tell you whatever you need to know." She had dropped the smile, and wanted to change to an easier speaking form, but she had no idea what Jordan was like.. So she simply stayed a cheetah. A very odd colored and shifty cheetah. She kept moving her weight from one side to the other as she sat there, the repetitive motion made some sick, but to her it was just fine.

[Shikyo]

Jordon noticed she was a little uncomfortable. "Are you ok?" he asked. "If you feel uncomfortable, do whatever you need to. I can handle it. After all, I've traveled a lot and saw many things during my explorations."

[Deleted]

"Alright." She said, the familiar instant was of black and white swallowed her for a second as it was always brief, and she emerged in her human-like form. Her cloak hung nicely and covered most of her face in shadow, but she could still see easily. She didn't stumble, as she so often did when changing from four feet to two, but rather her tail straightened out like a pole for a few seconds creating a disturbance in the cloak that Jonathon probably couldn't see.

"As a shapeshifter, travel holds many interesting things whether my eyesight is sharp or poor." She said with a small grin. Smiling now seemed less hostile and physically easier.

[Shikyo]

Jordon's eyes grew wide a bit then back to normal. "So you're a shapeshifter. Cool. In a way, I am myself. I'm a werewolf. My dad and I see plenty of shapeshifters so I'm not all that scared. However, we don't see them all that often. That's why I was surprised when you changed your form."

[Deleted]

"That makes sense, but they were probably of different breeds." Adnaha said, her tail swishing around unseen in her cloak. "I am of one of the rarest, with an even rarer trait still." She didn't elaborate, but rather formed the ball of opposite energy in her hand. It floated up at her will, and she could play with it if she liked or do something trickier.

She formed random shapes with it then let it fade away. "Who's your father?" She asked violet eyes coming back to Jordon.
