IC: Felix:
I meet Deomi at the door. We go in, and I climb on the table and curl up. She tickles my chin, and it feels so good, that I start purring. Aaah...
I see a shadow rising off of the ground and bending towards me. It flies into my mouth, and I start choking.
"FELIX!" Deomi screams, picking me up and giving my the heimlich.
My body starts morphing. The fur flattens and smooths into shadowy hide, my arms grow long and gangly, my body grows skinny and humanoid and my fingers and toes turn thin, bony and spindly. My head goes human, but not quite. My jaws fuse together, my eyes turn a blood-red, and my cranium grows large and alien-like.
"F...Felix?" She whimpers. Interesting. Fear. I haven't seen such fear in a while. She would be interesting in an experiment.
I turn my head to her curiously. She is a pretty specimen. It breaks my that she has to die. Well, I couldn't dissect her brain when she's alive, now could I? I need to find out how this mind control thing works. If there's another way, I'd like to hear it!
I summon tendrils of shadow. They coil behind me like ready-to-strike scorpion tails. I lash them out at her. She screams and dives. The tendrils hit the wall, and stick. I release them, and she jumps for a broken shadow, and I try to push her away, but the succeeds and pulls it out of the wall.
I dodge her first lunge, and duck underneath her second. I move to the side, but feel a sharp stabbing pain in my left arm, and I look down to see a broken shard of shadow sticking out of it. Red blood spills over the shadowy flesh, and then darkness. The shadows fly out of the wound and return to the room. I let out a muted wail, as the shadows wrapped around me also go back to the walls from whence they came.
I fall to my knees, a proper human now, and tears of pain, sorrow, joy and love come to my eyes as I look up at Deomi. She has a bandage in her hand, and starts wrapping it around my arm. My eyes start to close. I fall to the ground, unconscious, and dream about Deomi. Specifically, Deomi and Lili having a catfight. Hey, don't judge me! I can't control what I dream about, right? Right?
