To the Cafeteria.

Once Molly and you are out of the class room Molly informs you, " The Howl you used at the end was almost like a goodbye but not quite, it had more meaning. I know Petra is mostly the only one besides the Fox girl and a few of the others who knew the real meaning. They said it so quickly in response to your statement if you kept an eye on Petra's friend and her. It was clearly a parting word or statement, and I know it made them all feel wanted and loved almost as much as there song was about you and one and other and all Alex. You did very good responding to the song from your gut before you left."

You just nod and say " I am not a total idiot, and I do understand some of the urges I feel are often instant, and others are more me urging my mind to find the answer even if I don't know the question."

Molly just smiles and says " I know you have no idea what some of the things your saying means but I know you mean well when you Howl Alex. You also realize Kamrin mostly will be coming to you when she needs love from now on right. It's not like she needs it often anyway and it's not always as an Animorph either. It's just that when a clerk has sex with another Clerk most of the time it's as an Animorph because of well, its a good friend family style ice breaker in this environment to say the least. Family being the keyword of everyone in the shop, as you have already expressed to the girls of the class Alex."

You nod and just say " I get the feeling based on how Freya treats it and you treat it it's pretty easy going as a whole. I also get the feeling that as people pair off they get off the market for others til an agreement is met between everyone involved more or less."

Molly smiles and says " Pretty much, chances are Kamrin is going to get her added to do not send suitors list. To prevent herself from having her huge slutty personality helping her wrap her cunt around someone else dick. I get the feeling she enjoys the way strength in you as well. Like I said one of the many things I myself enjoy and we know the Animorphs sense or feel."

You shrug and say " It's kinda strange thinking about my childhood as we talked about it the other day, the whole thing with the mother wolf and everything."

Molly smiles and says " Freya fits the Mother Bear story and the Bear magic which is a lot like the wolf magic in much the same way, it might be one of the reasons she warmed to you so fast by comparison to any others since the last three masters returned her."

You just look at her funny and say " I guess you guys are studying folk lore, social and physical adaptations to changes in physical form along with any number of other things. I honestly think the whole magic thing is a bit much, but what do I know Molly I can't see it."

Molly just shrugs and says " The Animorphs can sense it Alex, I honestly think if Petra says its there, it's mostly there. And it's best just to trust her on it. But it does suggest why you have this command presents that draws the Animorphs to you when they really take notice of you."

About this time the two of you make it to the Cafeteria and you start to get the feeling you managed to walk here following you nose, much like you had when looking for Molly at the pool. You had not even noticed Molly directing you in a direction so much as just walking next to you as if you knew were to go.

Once your in the Cafeteria, Molly and you go to work eating the things you have taken a liken to as of late. Including a Lamb leg for which you strip the meat off and Molly eats the bone, a couple of plates of cut stripes of meat and for kicks you take a few grilled cheese sandwiches to see how they taste with this tongue. You realize a lot of things mostly taste different like this as well and you might want to explore that more in the near future. But you also notice the urge deep in the back of your mind to eat raw meat and all thou as before it weird you out. You don't find it all that unappealing, as you had the first day and eat it with almost damn near delight. Molly gets to work on the things she feels she needs to eat most of that is driven of course on instinct almost as much as the things you eat besides the sandwiches.

After you finis, Max comes over to you and looks at the number of plates in front of you he had been watching eat and says " You really know how to put it away and have gotten use to this change pretty well Alex." You just nod as he goes on to say " You do know don't yeah? that you don't need to eat as often even in this form Alex?"

You nod and say " I have been informed and notice a many great things, but I figure if Molly has to eat I might as well too." Molly is digging into some strips of meat, and you get up to get another leg of lamb before. Sitting back down and saying " I think Molly mostly can use some more marrow and bone, anyway I like this form alright I just wish I had some hands."

Max smiles and says " You just happen to get one of the more aggressive wolf pills, it's that they are mixed up you just took a beast pill which honestly is a higher beast to human DNA ratio. I am sure you have already been told this by Molly." Molly just smiles and nods and keeps eating. As you lean over and start to eat the lamb meat. Max then says " I guess you are pretty have been filled in then on a lot of the things then Alex?"

You shrug and say " With how big this shop is I get the feeling it would take years if not a life time to learn everything I need to know about it honestly Max. Thou I can with some clear understanding tell you I understand my rule in how I am to relate to others and that at any time I can stop others and myself from interacting with others of my picking based on the dynamics of are relationships."

Max smiles and says " I guess you do understand that pretty well, I hear that Kamrin is now added to the list of the hands off. Along with Molly here, your starting to form yourself a pretty large group of females Alex." You just smile as you finish off the Lamb meat on the bone as Molly snatches it off your plate and starts to eat the bone with vigor.

You just nod and say " I think the females decided this for me, I had no part in it other then taking and stacking my claim after the fact. As they submitted to me."

Max smiles again and says " That does sound about right based on what I know and so on. I had wanted to talk to you about your job. I have gone over some of the business idea's you had suggested to Molly, please don't be shocked we can pretty much pick up any conversion in this shop. That is not to say you don't have privacy because there are places with privacy filters but some of them where in hall ways and so on."

You nod and say " It's fine man, you have to make sure everyone is safe at all times I understand the depths of your business and operations. I understand the software that is running it is mostly got nothing to do with Microsoft that buggy piece of shit. So chances are you mostly have a custom build that was built to keep out program virus and any number of other things well safely interacting with Microsoft computers."

Max nods and says " Like everything else in this shop it's custom, it tracks the movements of your collar just in case you get lost you can call out for help and get someone sent to you to find you. All kinds of things are set up into it, but anyway Alex back to some of your idea's"

You shrug and say " What ones are you talking about? The ones that would suggest that the pills or a system could be used to set up the Animorphs as birthing surrogates for a human, and you could make human DNA pills for the Animorphs to take so that the child is 100 percent DNA completable with both parents? And human? Or the one where you make it possible to give DNA pills based on Human DNA to an Animorph and it makes it possible for you to bring her home to meet your parents? I had a few other idea's but I am unsure what ones your talking about."

Max smiles and says " These two are good examples of the kind of foreseeable business uses that my parents had missed when they first started this. They had never understood the possibility that an owner might keep and treat his pet/lover as a wife, and like a normal person would maybe want a human child even if it ment his or her mother is an Animorph it would still a low the owner and his pet the chance to do so if they want. This only then leaves the question as to how they get the other part of the Human DNA to base the human offspring off in this case."

You shrug and say " Well, I know it sounds a bit like cloning but you could take a part of or all of the DNA of the father some how change the sex to female so that his Animorph could wear/borrow/use the DNA for them to have a child. And then the kid male or female would be a genetic match to the family's DNA. The only problem here is with out enough changes to the DNA it's self without damaging the viability it comes out looking like **** almost. Might I suggest maybe asking others if they are ok with there DNA being used for this fact and build up a data base with photo's to show people and pets interested and make the pills for the pet to use and go that way. There is many ways to work this out, I personally am feel that if you can do it in the way wear you some how make the Animorphs DNA 100 percent human for a short while til after the birthing of the child using the DNA of the Animorph but switching it human for this purpose so it's genetically related to both parents without producing Animorph mostly is the best bet. Then again I don't know were the human DNA for the Animorphs came from in the first place."

Max just smiles and says " You suggested many viable possibilities and honestly the last one would maintain the most genetic diversity, the last one is mostly the best possible answer for all of that Alex. I get the feeling your taking this from the mechanical side rather then the science thou."

You shrug and say " Well I was a tech specialist, what good would I be if I did not understand parts of many different things and understand logic that helps solve issues." About now Molly has finished her meal and has been listening to what you had been saying and looks at Max and smiles.

Max then adds " Alex, til the time Molly says she feels your fit to work on your own and you know your way around the shop and have worked out any pressing understandings. You are to remain in her care, your official job is to look after her and Petra."

You look at Max and say " I thought, it was her job to look after me."

Max smiles and says " I guess we will not have any problems then."

You shrug and Molly says " Max, I honestly think Alex would be better served by you and the shop if you helped him understand more of the workings in the shop. Alex plans to give a lesson to the girls in Petra's class, one that shows them that you can have love without sexual contacted. That does not suggest he would not be holding them or petting them and or kissing them. He just plans to show that he and others can care for them, because of who or what they are. He feels maybe the current lesson's are not up to para with doing fair justice as a whole."

Max smiles again and says " I heard some of his idea's for lesson's and dealing with male Animorphs. Don't get me wrong there is some risk, and the idea of having Freya and Molly teaching her there Cubs and Pups was not a horrible idea. And having Petra help is not also a bad idea for terms of checking and understanding social dynamics of a group and family and seeming how learning from family can affected the possibility of the pets being more sound as a whole. I know we treat the shop all as family so in a way we do this but it's quite a bit different when you do it the way that you describe Alex. I also know you had suggested to Petra that maybe at the end of the year she might get to pick the pup or pups you keep."

You nod at Max and say " I figured, Petra would have to get a long with them. I know Freya being the mother and myself and Molly being who we are we could get along with them either way. As most of the Animorphs seem to honor humans, and family greatly and the moment you gave me a job here they seem to treat me a bit differently then before even thou I have no official title."

Max just grins and says " Your a clerk, you do what you have to do to help things run. Molly is a clerk as well thou her title is a bit more focused, and I don't want Molly to feel left out or upset but your going to be given a rank a bit higher then hers because of your job experience and general idea's for improvements. She is to work under you once you start the lesson's Kamrin might also be working with you at this task. After they start there lesson's for there pups chances are, you will be busy doing my kind of work Alex. Kamrin and Molly have often helped female clients find a pet sometimes a male, but for the most part they have always spent more time behind the scenes helping the Animorphs."

You shrug and ask " So how do you decided on a front desk Clerk?"

Max says " My job is always about considerations, and protection. I protected the Animorphs and the clients. I make considerations for there houses and decided on what might work best here or there. The Animorphs some of them come out whenever I am in there environment. Others come out when they smell something. In your case Alex they came out when they smelled something. The interest they took in you showed me one important thing, they would listen to your instructions master or not. Even thou we both know they got a little out of hand at times well you tried to decided what pet was for you. Petra, or Freya can both help you do your job should you decided to need it at first. The Animorphs relate to one and other a bit better then we do them all but in your case Alex."

You just shrug as Molly looks at Max and say " Alex seems according to Petra to hold the mark of the white wolf, according to the Native tales you had been having others teach her it's best way she can explain why the Animorphs respond to Alex as they do."

Max smiles and says " Well, that changes and explains a few things but it also explains why he picked Freya more or less. And why she came out from her hiding spot to allow herself to be picked right before she went into heat."

You shrug and just say " Petra explained, the white wolves mark on me was one of protection and some how it got put on me when I was younger as best as I can recall my interaction with a wolf when I was younger."

Max smiles yet again and says " That also explains why you have no hands Alex, the spirit energy of the protective mark you might not know it is very strong. It can even interact or react to the medicines you are given, and because the mark and the magic often allowed humans to take the form of a wolf, when you took the form of a wolf it got very aggressive in the form it gave you. Have you gotten a good look at yourself Alex? I would not say that you are mean looking so much as imposing, I got reports of you growling at people who had been to close to Molly. Some of these things including the Howling that to the Animorphs at least some of them make a great deal of sense, explains your reaction to some degree. The reason we teach the Animorphs the tales of magic and other things is as you can see they do have some explanation as to whats going on here now. And because the Animorphs are the ones capable of sensing or feeling the protection on you more so then us. Not to say that Molly here did not pick up on it all them days ago in your smell. It was a warm feeling Molly picked up on not a smell."

You shrug and nod and just say " So your saying this mark on me leaves me to protected everyone around me? Even if I don't want to?"

Max smiles and says " The wolf picked you, you did not pick it. And it also explains why you took this form. And why the boosters mostly likely will make you remain in that form a bit longer then expected. But don't worry about it, you will be 100 percent fine, it's a protective magic. The Legends say that at the time the person needs to return to human they can or do. That means, you maybe have honestly been able to take this form even if you had not taken the pills. The pills only helped you take it and **** the form to take this shape. That does not mean to say that the pills do not have there standard affects thou it might have some other affects once your out of this form maybe. Nothing harmful, I am sure much to the pleasure of Kamrin and Molly you mostly will end up with a larger dick when you return to your normal form because of the pills."

You shrug and say " So long as I can wear pants I don't give a damn."

Max nods and and looks at Molly who seems to have drool coming out of the side of her mouth as he says " Well, I guess that makes Molly happy."

You shake your head and say " So how did you guys come up with this idea and why did you guys steady folk lore before doing it?"

Max grins again and says " Some people, in all cultures are more prone or capable of taking a form. The DNA for some of the original Animorphs are based of these people. People like you Alex, thou honestly you are the first to be in one of the shops in over 50 years. I am pretty sure if someone else had the affect and or characteristics before now one of the other Animorphs would have noticed it."

Molly just grins at you when she realized what you are more or less, and says " I guess that means Alex's DNA will end up in his pups after all?"

Max smiles at Molly and says " Not only his but yours, we are not able to sell or master out any of his pups. They will end up staff in this shop, also chances are they will live longer then any others in the entire shop. We only have one of the original, Animorphs from the first group still in the this shop. And chances are some of the Pups will be sent to other shops to help maintain and strength the DNA and or other traits of the Animorphs in the other shops. I hope this is Suitable?"

You look at Max and ask " Why are we talking about something this important in the open like this?"

Max smiles and says " No one can hear us, you would be surprised what kind of things the scientist who came up with this shop made." With that he holds up a simple device, you look around and notice not only is no one looking at the three of you. You can't hear anything besides the three of you.

You look at Max and say " I am guessing the collars or some other device is used to make it so you are the only one able to hear us? And us you."

Max smiles and says " Something like that, it's more like a 3 meter sound dampener. So the sound coming toward us treats this space as a hollow spot, the sound going to the 3 meters from with in it comes out in a very low frequency that not even the Animorphs can hear."

You turn to Max and say " That means if are DNA is Transferred 100 percent, this means science that prevents males is nullified when you take into count real genetics. Meaning it's even more important for me to find a way to teach the Pups."

Max nods and says " I had figured, something like this was the case when I over heard Petra talking about it, mind you Petra mostly will want to still be your lover and I figure if you are ok with it and Molly is nothing is wrong there.It's just all the ones after this. Since every few of the Original Animorphs still exist. Most of them are getting near the end, all but the one in this shop. That does not mean it's a human it's the offspring of two people like you Alex. Anyway your offspring will be treated like Humans, this means they will have the right to pick there own mates. Research showed us that so long as one of the partners had been like you Alex, then the other partner's DNA Human or Animorph it makes no difference is a 100 percent DNA transfer even if the DNA had been altered. Sorry about that Molly I had not warned you at all about this, thou the odds are way out there."

Molly just smiles and says " Its ok Max, thou it does explain why most of Petra's class went into heat earlier then they should and why it's all the more important for Alex to give them there lesson. And this new information proves it. I also would not be surprised to find that every Animorph who came out to check out Alex was also in heat just as Freya is now. Hell, she could already be pregnant. And we don't even know it. And if that is the case then it's a good thing she is more beast then human, because if she had more human DNA in her then she would produce off spring closer to human then Animorph. I mean if everything I understand is correct so far."
