Pam Greets you.

Pam bows her head in respect, this upsets or throws the other saber cats through a loop at seeing it. But then Pam says " The Elder has been expecting you, she thinks your late but at the same time she thinks your early."

You then bow and suggest " I have not any idea why I am here, One minute Lisa here was showing me a room she liked. Next thing I know I am standing next to Max, and then I am told to come here. It's been rather confusing for me." Lisa being the ever obedient dog that she is does as she is told and says nothing.

Pam just shakes her head and says " Strange things, very strange things. There is growing unrest in the Animorphs, they know not why they have it. But they feel unsteady, the Elder is the one to talk to about it thou. She has her own idea's on it."

You just nod as Pam leads you deeper and deeper into the camp, as you pass another tent Pam says " We normally, leave the habitat one at a time and few return in less they are not chosen or do not choose an owner. I had hoped, that day you came by you would have picked me but it was for not."

You shake your head and say " I have not seen much of the pet I did pick, it seems she is to hibernate now. And she awakes every two to three days to eat and then goes back to sleep. She is with cubs and well, I guess she is happy I have not heard or been told anything wrong or bad."

Pam nods and says " Many Animorphs, get great joy from cubs or pups or whatever it is they give birth to." Lisa is just flinging her tail back and forth, and acting like a happy pup more or less. Even thou it's clear this is not her first chose of places to go in the shop, being an Animorph she knows she is more or less safe here.

As you pass another hut you ask " How far is the Elder from the rest of the huts? I mean how big can this enclosed area be?"

Pam nods and points this way and that way as if to make a point and then says " There is about 20 to 30 of us full grown and fully learned Cats here, thou we have cubs that stay here as they learn. Part of there lesson's involve taking time with some of us and the Elder but not much. Thou some of the others help teach, because either they never took a preference to anyone who entered or because of other reasons. Thou as a whole most of us wait for the smell of a person who draws are interests before we show are selves to a human." You nod as she says " You were the first I ever presented myself to, it's with great disappointment that I had not been picked."

You try to say sorry but then she say's " The Elder has said when I asked, that if you had not picked the pet you had many bad things might have happen. And you would not have returned to the shop so soon. She did not say that bad things would happen to you or to your pet but the general future of everything here might have been damaged. So in the end the Elder tells me I just not be sad, for my lose is others gain and so on." Lisa is not interested in this, she knew that she herself took great interest in you and the way some of the other Sabers responded to you was a bit more then uncalled for.

Lisa finally decides it's time to say something and says " Do you feel the pull even now toward Alex?"

Pam sniffs at the air and then says " It seems you little one have even been with him, it seems if I delay much longer to get the right to be with him I might never."

You sniff about a second and realize why all the other sabers are in an up roar it seems a lot of them had ended up in heat after your passing, all but the most little ones as far as you can tell from the smell.

Lisa on the other hand nods and says " Yes, my mother brought me to Alex. On an appointment to measure him, and once she had decided that he was good enough for me. She allowed me to do what I wanted to do, she has left me to spend time with him. So that I might better a quint myself with him. She believes that the speed by which I was allowed to mate with him, is a little uncivilized and that I might better be served to learn as I spend time with him."

Pam just nods and says " As it often is with Animorphs, instinct over feelings often. Thou the feelings tend to lead to many of are responses as part of the instinctive things we decided to do. Honestly thou I find it hard, every moment I am with or near Alex not to push him to the ground. But in his current form, I am pretty sure no one would welcome my cubs here. So they would have to grow else were and this bothers me a bit." You just think about the logic she is using to prevent herself from acting,and all thou you understand that most Animorphs have little contacted with there offspring at least for the the Saber Cats it's clear they have some day to day contact.

You are about to say something as Pam stops at a tent that happens to have two guards in front of it, your pretty sure it's just for show since well. They can't really harm you if they did there is no telling what would happen to them all. Anyway it's also a good thing your a rather large wolf Animorph more or less and if anything this form is what is bothering them so much or it's the strange feelings they get when your around one or the other. You also start to wonder before entering the tent if the over protective feelings about cubs that Pam stated is at all related to your presents and how you make others feel at least Animorphs that is.

As you pass the entrance through the portal to the Elder, you notice the kind of things you would mostly expect to see with in the other huts thou your pretty sure this hut is a bit different then the rest. There is a Throne/Alter and a number of other things you can't explain so much. That is not to say that It's bad it's just different, you see things made out of bone or mostly plaster and wood and other things to make it. To make it look like a hut made out of Animal skins and bones, much like primitive man mostly had. You see spears and a number of other things, and you start to wonder why they might have been allowed these things when the function for them is quite different then the nature the shop promotes.

As you approach the Elder, you notice that she stands to you and gets to her knees. Pam is the one taken a back this action, Thank god for you the two guards were told to go do something else as the tent was shut and closed from the inside. You are unsure what to do, so you decided to try and honor her maybe by doing the same. But as you get down to your knees, Pam shoves you to your feet as she herself kneels down. Lisa not being one to be left out and all though they are not part of her pack or Family beyond the fact that they are Animorphs also gets to her knees and bows before you. You start to wonder if your suppose to say something, but then realize that from the wisdom that your mother had given you that it was best to keep your mouth shut as not to remove all doubt that your an idiot.

The Elder, on the other hand starts to chant something. Your sure it is just some kind of interpretation of ones feelings more or less, much like many of the Native style chants that are used through out the world. The song the chants, it's about repeating a set of sounds and so on. You try to do what you feel in your gut is best as you listen to her chant, deep down you start to feel something. So you start to let out yaps and light growls and soon you let out a howl, and as you start to slow the sound down it slowly turns into a roar.

You look down and notice you have gotten bigger then you had been before, this is honestly the first time in a while you might even call yourself upset. You have taken the form of a Lion so of course, the golden skin, the large paw shaped hands with claws. And of course a very large dark mane around your neck, and the large **** and well you guess the general size differences of what an Animorph lion and a wolf might be. You start to wonder if the size differences has become your normal form now, but you shake your head as you try to focus. You realize you had not taken DNA pills, so you have no idea how you took this form. It also becomes clear that your dick has gotten big in relation to the increased size. You must have gained between 50 and 100 pounds of muscle from the shift. Plus bone and general size increase. As you realize the changes the Tan fur shifts to a little darker color.

The Three Animorphs are looking at you, it's clear the Elder must have gotten the answer she wanted because she is just looking at you. Pam on the other hand looks like she could be drooling. And Lisa is a little worried simply because your normally not a giant male cat and well as much as she likes you. And as little as she has feelings against other Animorphs the change from the wolf form she likes to this has put her on guard.

So you realize that you have taken the form of a large Cat but at the same time for some reason you had quite taken the form of a large cat but you also notice that as far as you know you might have taken the right form. You reach up to your face and feel around and find large teeth, you touch a bit more and notice the slope of your face and the mane. You start to figure the mane is on your neck to protected you as a wolf maybe and as a large saber cat. As you touch your body a bit more, you realize you mostly still have the same dark hair on your head and down your back so you start to wonder how that looks with the mane. But it is clear it does not bother Pam one bit, and even Lisa in her uneasy state seems some what taken with the form as it starts to settle in on your skin.
