it.” I watch him leave. I turn and look at Dawn. I walk over to her and kiss her furry head. I think that she and I will get along well.

Chapter 3

I wake and look down at the end of my bed because I feel a slight dent in the mattress. I see Dawn there and I smile. I look over at the clock and see that I have to get a shower now or go to school dirty. I quietly get up and head for the restroom. I take a shower and when I finish I dry my hair off.
I head for my room to dress for the day. I let go of my towel and I look around for my jacket.
“Morning Paul,” Dawn says behind me. I turn and remember that I am nude. She gets up and hugs me. I feel so uncomfortable. “Can you give me a bath?”
“Why?” I ask.
“Why not give me a bath? Please.”
“Only if you shift then I will give you a bath.”
“Okay.” She starts to leave and I quickly grab a robe. I follow her and when I get to the bathroom she has already shifted, a Rottweiler puppy. I turn on the hot water and put in the stopper. She hops in and I sit on the side. I grab the shampoo and squeeze some on my hand. I reach over to get Dawn and I put the shampoo on her. I rub it in and she just stands there. I get a cup and fill it with water. I pour the water out on her. Dawn shifts back and she grabs the ties on my robe and undoes them. She pulls me up and takes off the robe. “If you want me to stop then just say it.” She kisses me and I kiss back. We make out for five minutes when I remember we have to go to school.
“Wait, we have to go to school in about one hour,” I say as she lets us breathe.
“Okay then let’s go,” she replies. We head back to my room and get dressed. She puts on the same cloths she put on yesterday. I put on dark jeans and a black top under my favorite jacket. I realize that she has no shoes.
“What size shoe are you?” I ask.
“I am not sure but we can find out,” Dawn replies. I go into my closet and take out all my old shoes. She goes over and looks at all of them I guess looking for a size that will fit her. I look in my closet again for socks that she can wear. “I am a size six in men’s.” I look over and she has a pair of Converse in her hands. I turn back around and I find a pair of socks that I think will fit her. I toss them to her and she catches them.
“I’ll be downstairs if you need me,” I say.
“I’ll be down soon,” Dawn says. I head down and I set everything up so that we can have breakfast. I get out two bowls, two spoons, milk, and cereal. I hear something upstairs and see Dawn has finished changing. She walks down the stairs and sits at the counter. I sit next to her and pour her some cereal and add some milk. I do the same to myself and I begin eating.
I finish eating so I put my dishes in the sink to clean later. I go back to my room and get my backpack. I also get one for Dawn to use. I get them and head back down. I place all the school supplies Dawn will need in her bag and bring the backpacks to the front door. I go back to Dawn. “Hay, are you ready for your first day of twelfth grade?” I ask.
“I guess so,” she replies.
“It will be fine.”
“I don’t know. I feel sick.”
“You are just nervous.” I walk over to her and hug her.
“Thanks, I feel better now. Wait, do we have the same classes together or am I going to be lost all day?”
“I am not sure but I hope we at least have lunch together.” I check the time and notice that we should be heading out for the bus. “It’s time to head out for the bus.” We head for the door and grab our bags. I open the door and Tyler is already out there. “Hay, Tyler!” I shout.
“Hay Paul and Dawn nice to see you,” Tyler says.
“Hi,” Dawn says. We walk out to the stop and wait. The bus comes in two minutes and all of us head on.
“Who are you?” Aaron asks Dawn as she sits down in the seat next to me but on the other side of the isle.
“My name is Dawn and I am Paul’s cousin,” she replies without hesitation.
“Well, are you dating anybody?”
“No I am not dating anybody right now.”
“Do you want to?”
“No not really.”
“You will soon. And why would you want to hang out with your loser cousin and his stupid friend?”
“You are not one to judge.”
“Meet me after school and we can get to know each other more.”
“Not in a million years am I am going to do that.”
“We’ll see about that.” We get to school and we all walk off. Dawn and I head to the principal’s office to get her class schedule. We get her schedule and she has all the same classes as me and Tyler. Ya, Tyler and I have the same classes.
“And your locker is number five two zero and here is your lock,” the principal says. We leave and head to her locker. She is on the other side of the lockers from mine. Dawn places all her stuff in her locker when the person who has the locker next to her came over, Aaron. I forgot he had a locker on the other side of mine.
“I see you have the locker next to me,” he says. Dawn only rolls her eyes and continues to fill her locker. Aaron grabs the back of my shirt and lifts me off the ground.
“I’ll see you after school if you let him down nicely,” Dawn says. Aaron slowly puts me down.
“We can walk to my place after school,” Aaron says with a smile that scares me, his parents are probably not going to be home tonight. Tonight I will try out my new powers.

Chapter 4

The whole ride home I just want to jump out of the bus and run to Dawn. The bus reaches my stop and I storm off to get inside. I get out the key and open the door. I wait one minute for the bus to be very far when I shift. I head out to my backyard and I try to shift into a bird. I close my eyes and think I want to be a crow. I feel strange so I open my eyes and notice I am a crow. I can’t think about cool this is, I have to save Dawn. I flap my wings and head toward Aaron’s house. I get there and Aaron and Dawn arrive at his house. I caw and Dawn looks up. I go down to one of the trees where another crow is and I scare it and it flies away. I shift into a squirrel and climb down the tree. I go to the bushes; I shift into a bug, and fly onto Dawn’s jacket.
“And here we are,” Aaron says as he opens the door. Dawn walks in and Aaron locks the front door. He turns and takes Dawn’s backpack. I fly over to the wall and shift into a spider. Aaron picks Dawn up and covers her mouth. I crawl on the wall so I am beside them. He goes into his room and before he shuts the door I get in the room. He drops her down on his bed and he pins her down. He begins to kiss her and he takes off his jacket and shirt. He takes off her jacket and tries to take off her shirt when I shift back to myself. He hears me and turns around. “Who’s there?”
“Your worst enemy,” I reply.
“Paul, what the hell are you doing here?”
“I’m here to save my cousin.”
“Good luck with that.” Right at that moment he shifts into a bear. I shake my head to Dawn and I shift into a bear too. He goes for me first but I counter it by going under him. I go up and I get a good cut on his face. He cries out in pain and shifts back, I do too. “Are you trying to kill me? This cut could kill me.” Dawn walks over to him and places her hands over his wound. It glows and I close my eyes. I open them because the light is gone and Aaron is healed completely, not even a scar. “What did you do to me?”
“I healed you because I can and you can’t. I did not want anyone dead so I had to help you even though you are my enemy in a way,” Dawn replies. I guess that I can do that too. Dawn faints in Aaron’s lap.
“I’ll be going now,” I say as I pick her up. I head out of the door and run home. I still have my key so I open the front door. I put her on the couch to lock the door as cat Tyler comes in. “Dude, could you lock that for me?” He shifts back and locks the door.
“What happened here?” he asks. I tell him and he seems to believe me. I take Dawn and carry her to my bed and place her in it. I go back down and Tyler and I get our homework done because we do that all the time. We finish in half an hour and Tyler goes home. I notice that there is a message on the home phone so I listen. My mom’s voice is all I hear in the message, “Paul, are you there. Your father and I are in big trouble. There are these shape shifters who say that you are part of some prophecy and they do not want you to fulfill it. Please do be extra careful when you are out. Don’t be afraid to shift if you get into that kind of trouble. We love you and hope you are okay. Hopefully we will see you soon. Love mom and dad. That was it, my parents are gone and I can’t do anything about it. I just want to be normal for once in my life. A bird lands on my shoulder and it is Dawn.
“I am so sorry,” she says as she shifts into her human form and she hugs me. I begin to cry and I hug back. “It will be okay now. We can make the prophecy true if you would like.”
“No, now is not the time for that. I would like to learn everything that you know about your powers,” I say.
“Can we sleep in your parent’s room tonight?”
“Sure, I guess that we could do that but why?”
“I want to sleep with you and that is kind of hard when you are on a twin sized mattress.”
“That makes since, alright then the two of us will sleep in my parent’s room tonight.”
“Good, I just want to have someone I actually care about with me when I sleep rather than a guy like Aaron.”
