The young woman sat on the golden brown sand, staring out at the azure sea. As she fisted and released the soft grains, she was mesmerized by the lapping of the waves. Her emerald cat like eyes scanned the waters.
What was on the young woman's mind? It is hard to say, for her eyes were emotionless, blank to the world. She seemed to be quite immersed in her thoughts, for if she were lucid, she would have noticed the soft, ragged breathing somewhere behind her. If she had looked around to investigate, she would have seen the silver dog quietly padding toward her.
The eyes blazed joyfully, almost as if the dog found the situation highly amusing. Fangs bore in a sly grin, the dog stalked toward the unsuspecting woman, getting a bit anxious, it sped up.
With a high pitched yip, it leapt upon the startled girl before she could turn and pinned her into the sand. Fangs gleaming with a victorious toothy grin, the dogs' nose was inches from the girls' own. Her wide green eyes, which remained startled looking for a mere second more, turned weary and angry.
"Jenny, must you do that every time I am alone and at peace? You scared the crap out of me!" The woman said in a biting tone, pushing at the dog's shoulder blades to get it off of her.
Said dog took it upon itself to leap off of the angry woman, tilting its head for a moment before flashing pearly white fangs in what appeared to be a doggy smile. Majestically standing on all four paws, the dog began to slowly rise to stand on its hind legs. Its fur began to recede into the skin, and its body became elongated, stretching into the form of a woman. The doggy head, paws and tail all morphed into a human head, hands and feet, and a tailless backside.
"Honestly, you need to stop using your powers Jenny, what if someone had seen you? You know that it can be dangerous, it will drain your life, you kn"
"Blah blah blah, chill out Rose. Look who's talking, you who used your summoning power to bring Alexander Cole to your bed because you were having a slumber party…" Jenny remarked, using air quotes with the words slumber party.
Rose blushed slightly before regaining her composure.
"Well, that was all a big mistake, I had just come into my powers the month before, I did not know that would happen! Anyway, I thought I was the risky party girl, and you the shy, goody two shoes." Jenny glared at her cousin for a moment, and then nodded in agreement.
"You know it was not an accident Rose…" Jenny said as she fell onto the sand, feeling the soft grains touch her backside.
"Forgetting something?" Rosa snickered. The other girl tilted her head for a moment before suddenly looking down at her body. She quickly grabbed at the towel Rose had been sitting on and covered her naked flesh, looking around to see if anyone had seen her.
"Ooooh, now you care if someone sees you, you did not consider it when you turned…" Rose chastised, which led Jenny to roll her eyes. Rosa held out a bathing suit which the other girl quickly grabbed and stepped into.
"I keep forgetting the whole 'no clothes after reverting back to human' thing. Boy am I glad no one saw that." Jenny wiped at her brow and looked at her older cousin for a second before walking to the water to check her reflection. The transformation did not always bring her back to full human, sometimes leaving an ear or tail, wing or sometimes, to her cousins' amusement, a snout.
'Have to work on that, Jenny thought, as she checked herself over. Her grey eyes shone innocently as always, her long brown hair with the silver streak going down the right side was the same, her high check bones, soft features and supple but not overweight frame was intact. She breathed a sigh of relief as she turned to her cousin, who was examining herself in a compact mirror.
Rose was supple as well, curves and had some meat on her; both girls were healthy looking, not over weight in the least bit, but not too thin and gangly. Her thick hair had a jagged red stripe on the left side, and she was darker than her lighter brown skinned cousin, and was a little bit shorter. She was a month older and made it known every time Jenny mouthed off to her or acted a bit immature. Much to Jenny's chagrin, Rose loved to rub it in. Amusing, seeing as Rose was the more immature of the two.
"Well, what do you say? Want to check out the local scene? There is this bar I heard about, Nicky's, I think. I hear it is really hot there and there are a bunch of hotties just waiting to be picked up by a pair of gorgeous chicks like us," Rose laughed at the startled look on Jenny's face.
Rose was about to pull the shy girl along by the arm to get her to go along with her when they heard catcalls and whistles from nearby. Both reacted differently, Rose spun around, ready to curse to guys to high Heaven, and Jenny froze instantly, feeling on reflex like turning into a bird and flying away.
"Well well, look what we have here… a couple of beach babes looking for a good time." A young man said, walking toward the cousins, flanked by another boy and a skinny, long faced girl.
"Why don't you just leave us alone, we were just leaving…" Jenny spoke, softly and timidly. Both boys turned heated gazes upon the younger girl, licking their lips. The girl in the group punched the boys' arm that she was holding on to. Rose glared daggers at the little clique and bit her tongue to keep from casting a very horrible curse on these jerks. Jenny pulled at her cousins' arm, knowing full well Rose was not one to hold back on a spell or curse.
The posse walked forward, closing in around the girls.
"Not done with you two, we have not even introduced ourselves"
"We don't want to know you!" Rose screamed, she kicked sand at the three, who jumped back in surprise. Regaining their cool, they scowled at the girls.
"Oh, they had some bad attitudes… I think we need to teach them some manners," the taller boy said, motioning for the other two to follow his lead, which they did, smiling all the while.
Jenny felt Rose tighten beside her, ready to power up. She herself felt the heat rising within, her eyes burned hot anger, just as she was sure her cousin's were.
"Come on pal, try to make our day!" Rose was about to take a step forward when she felt her younger cousin hesitate. She knew that Jenny was afraid of confrontation, so she cooled down a bit. Besides, why waste power on mere humans? It would be a waste of their life force.
"Not going to fight? Scared little freaks," the girl bit out, smiling sardonically. The group now fully circled the startled girls.
"Doesn't look so good, huh Jen?" Rose said, trying to keep her voice light. Jenny swallowed hard and shook her head, no.
