I growled and clenched my fists, the paper getting scrunched up. I threw the piece of paper into Blake's bag and walked back out to the kitchen. "Um.... Blake left a note saying he went to Jay's earlier so they could go to school. He said sorry."

"Oh, okay," his mother said. "Would you like a lift to school?"

"No thanks. I'll walk," I replied and I went to my room, grabbed my bag and walked out of the house.

When I got out of the street I ran towards home. They had Blake, and I had to get him back before he got hurt.

I reached my old home and walked right in. "Mum!?"

"Skye, is that you!?" I heard her and she ran to the front door to see me. "Where have you been!? We've been worried sick-"

"Where's dad?"

"What?"

"Where's dad?"

"He's at work. Why?"

"Where is that?"

"In Sunbury. An hour from here maybe more."

"Give me directions."

"Why?"

"Just do it!" I snapped.

"Okay...." my mother went to the kitchen and came back with a piece of paper. "This is the directions you should take. It's the quickest way. Why do you want to go to Sunbury? Do you want a lift?"

"No," I replied and turned for the door. "I just need to see him......" So I can rip his fucken throat out! I thought with a growl.

"Um... alright. How are you getting there?"

"I'll ask someone for a ride."

"I could-"

"Not you." I walked out. "Thanks. See ya."

"Skye...." she murmured but I ran off.

I ran down David Street but I stopped when I saw a dark blue Subaru car pull up at a front lawn a few houses down. It was pretty cool, an air vent thing at the top of the hood, cool rims, tinted windows, it was packed with power. A guy and a girl jumped out, bottles of beer in their hands. They left the car on and went inside. I smiled and ran over to the car, shutting the passenger door and jumping in the driver's seat. I was glad I knew how to drive, and I was thankful that it was an easy steal and an easy way to get to Blake.

I put the car into gear and put my foot on the accelerator, turning the wheel and making the car do a U turn and I drove up the street. I'll need help, I thought. Sara would be my first option.

I drove up to the school and parked the car. I locked it and took the keys with me, walking up the path and I found my friends sitting at the wall where they always were in the mornings.

"Hey, Skye," Storm smiled. "Where's Blake?"

"My dad took him," I replied. "I'm going to get him but I need help....... Who feels like ditching school and coming to Sunbury with me?"

"ME!" Sara yelled, jumping up.

"Yep. I need you to come anyway," I nodded.

"I'll come," Jay said. "Blake's a mate, I won't let him get taken by nobody."

I nodded. "Alright. One more person."

"Why one more?" Cody asked.

"It's a five seater car that I managed to steal," I sighed. "And I need a seat for Blake when we get him back."

All the guys said they wanted to come, but I didn't know who to take.

Sara sighed. "Storm, you should come."

"Why him!?" Shaun complained.

"Because he's sensible in times of trouble. You guys aren't," Sara replied. "And we can't take all of you."

"But what about that stone thing?" Heath asked.

"We don't know what'll happen there," I murmured. "But yeah, Storm, come on."

Storm nodded and walked over to me, Jay and Sara.

"See ya guys," I said.

"Have fun at school while we go rescue Blake," Sara waved.

"Don't you dare even think of smashing Justin until we get back!" Jay said. "Or I'll kick your asses."

"Fine," Nick crossed his arms.

"Let's go," I said and we headed for the car.

"That's the car you stole!?" Storm exclaimed and I nodded. I jumped in the driver's seat, Sara called dibs on the passenger seat. Storm and Jay had to sit in the back.

"Skye?" Jay said.

"Hmm?" I muttered as I put the keys in the ignition and started the car up.

"Do you know how to drive?"

"Yep. I got here didn't I?"

"Where did you learn how to drive?" Storm asked.

"Grand Theft Auto video game," I replied.

"Oh.... shit......" Jay said and we all put seatbelts on.

"Is this a safe idea?" Sara asked. "How fast are we gonna go?"

"As fast as the car can go," I said and put the car into gear, slamming my foot on the accelerator and the car was gone, leaving skid marks on the ground.

Jay and Storm yelled with fear and Sara winded down her window, sticking her head out. "WOO HOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" she screamed and quickly grabbed her hat to stop it from falling off. She put it on her seat.

"Sara!" I said and she came back in.

"Yeah?"

I gave her a piece of paper. "I need you to tell me where to go."

"Um........... Is that a good idea?" she muttered.

"Just tell me which streets I need to take," I said.

"Alright. Go down the Princess Highway."

"YOU'RE KIDDING!?" Jay exclaimed when he saw the smirk on my face.

"Who wants some proper Grand Theft Auto?" I asked.

"NO! NO! NO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" Jay and Storm yelled.

"I DO!!!!!!!!!!!!!" Sara smiled.

"Alright," I smirked and turned onto the Princess Highway, following the sign that said 'CITY'.

I made the car go faster and I swerved in and out of lanes, dodging cars and beeping when I past a slow driver. Sara had her head out the window again, giving everybody the finger as I past them.

"SLOW DOWN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" Storm yelled.

"Do you want to get to Blake quickly or not!?" I snapped. "Because I want to get him out of there before my faggot father hurts him! Now stop back-seat-driving or you can walk back to school!"

Jay and Storm shut up, scared.

I sped down the Princess Highway and followed Sara's directions until we reached the city.

"Where to now?" I asked her.

"Turn right into Peel Street and follow it to Flemington Road," Sara replied.

"Where the fuck is Peel Street!?" I growled.

Sara looked out the window. "Um...... This street! Turn right!"

I turned right, skidding a little and I went down the street, but I didn't find Flemington Road.

"Where are we!?" I asked.

"Um...................................... Not on Peel Street?" Sara muttered.

"You said it was this street!" I sighed. I slowed down and looked up at a sign, it said Victoria Street.

"We're on Victoria Street," I said. "How do we get to Peel Street?"

"I don't know!" Sara sighed. "THERE! TURN LEFT!"

I turned left when I saw the sign and I hit the gas, making Jay and Storm scared again. I found Flemington Road.

"Now just follow this street onto the Tullamarine Freeway, Bulla Road, Sunbury Road and Macedon Street to Sunbury," Sara said. "Apparently it's one long street."

I nodded and dodged in and out of cars, glad we weren't in the city anymore. We followed the road for ages, I thought we would have missed Sunbury altogether. It had been forty five minutes that I had been driving from Dandenong and I saw a sign that said 'Sunbury', so I followed it.

We finally got to Sunbury and I looked at Sara, her head out the window again, looking around at the country town. "Sara, where to now?" I asked.

She came back in and looked at the paper. "Um...... Follow Riddell Road until you find Outlook Drive and to the end of the street should be the place."

"Okay," I said and I drove through a red light.

"Skye, how many times are you going to do that!?" Jay said.

"Do what?"

"That was your third traffic violation in less than four blocks!" Jay said.

"And?"

Jay sighed. "Slow down a little!"

"Okay," I changed gears and went a tad bit faster.

"I said SLOW DOWN!"

"AND I SAID NO BACK-SEAT-DRIVING OR YOU CAN WALK BACK HOME!" I yelled back at him, he was quiet. "Look, we need to find Blake. I wanted you guys to come and help me because you're easier to ask for help. You cooperate easier than the others. So please don't irritate me and just stay quiet until we get there!"

"Sorry," Jay said.

"Me too," I sighed and dodged a few more cars, but slowed down a little bit.

I drove down Riddell Road and we found Outlook Drive. "Alright. There's the warehouse," I murmured. "We'll need to be careful when we get in there. Sara, you and me especially."

"I know," Sara said and I drove to the end of the street, looking up at the huge building.

I parked the car in amongst a bunch of trees and we all got out, sneaking over to the big front doors of the building.

Sara was taking deep breaths. "You alright?" I asked.

"Skye, I've wanted to ask you..." Sara said. "Because you have powers like me, can you transform as well?"

I nodded slowly. "What do you transform into?" I asked.

"You'll see," Sara smiled.

"What are you talking about?" Storm asked.

"You'll see," Sara and I both said at the same time.

We snuck into the building and crept around, looking for Blake.

After a while we sat down behind a bunch of metal boxes. "This is useless!" Sara whispered. "I'm transforming. We'll find Blake easier that way."

"I agree," I said and we both looked at the guys.

"Can you look after our clothes?" Sara asked.

"WHAT!?" Jay and Storm exclaimed. "Uh....... What are you talking about?"

Sara and I looked at each other. "They'll be a bit shocked," Sara sighed.

"They'll get over it," I murmured. "Let's just hurry up."

Sara and I nodded and we both crouched down. In moments we blew up into balls of fur. I stretched my four legs and climbed out of my clothes, shaking them off. Sara was the same. She was an Arctic Wolf, one of the prettiest wolves ever known. I was a Bengal Tiger, one of the prettiest tigers ever known.

"Uh......................" Jay and Storm backed away.

I looked at them and picked up my clothes in my teeth, walking over to them and dropping the clothes on the ground in front of them. If I could talk to them, I would. Sara dumped her clothes with mine and she nudged them with her nose.

"You want us to look after them?" Storm asked.

We rolled our eyes, we had said that before transforming. We nodded and they picked up our clothes, shoving them in their bags.

I turned to Sara and she nodded, beginning to sniff around. "Damn!" she growled, only I could understand her. "I don't know Blake's scent very well!"

"I do," I smiled.

"Obviously," Sara rolled her eyes. "You pick up his scent."

I nodded and sniffed the ground. I had my nose to the ground and I walked out from behind the metal boxes and the others followed.

"I have his scent," I growled to Sara. "Come on!"

Sara nodded and turned to the guys, wagging her tail in the direction I was walking. She turned back and followed me, the guys didn't know what else to do but follow.

"This is creepy," Storm said to Jay.

I growled over my shoulder. "Look out! People are coming!"

I quickly hid in the shadows and Sara nudged the guys in the same direction.

"What are you kids doing in here!?"

I growled and looked out to see two adults come over and grab Storm and Jay. "You shouldn't be here!" one of them growled.

The other guy saw Sara. "Nice dog you've got. Come here doggy," he said, patting his knees.

"I'll kill this guy!" Sara growled, walking over to him. I wasn't going to stop her, I was only disappointed that I didn't have popcorn.

Sara strolled over to the guy patting his knees, Jay and Storm looked worried.

"Good boy," the guy smiled.

"That's it!" Sara snarled and threw her head back, letting out a loud howl.

"That's not a dog!" Jay smiled. "That's my wolf."

"You own a wolf!?" the guy that held Storm asked. "They don't live in Australia!"

"Mine does," Jay smiled.

The guy that held Jay stepped back a little and Sara looked at him. "Come on, we're going to take you boys to Mr. Cassidy so he can deal with you! Your wolf better not attack us!"

I wouldn't be so sure of that, I thought.

Sara growled and when the guys started dragging Storm and Jay off, she snarled and leaped at them, biting down on one of the guy's arms. She leaped onto the other guy and Storm and Jay jumped back. Sara jumped over to her friends. "Skye, you go find Blake!" Sara called, knowing no one else would understand. While the men were focused on Sara attacking them, I snuck out from the shadows and ran towards the rest of the building to find Blake. This would be risky, I didn't know if the stone would affect me in this form.

I managed to get past so many guards it was crazy. I loved being a tiger, stalking through the shadows and creeping past everybody.

"Would you let me out of here already!"

My ears pricked as I recognized the voice. Blake! I thought and dashed into the shadows. I peered around a corner, ears up and my body tense. I saw a glass wall with a door and I saw Blake in the room, tied to a chair.

"Shut up, kid!" it was my dad that was standing in front of him. My father hit him with one fist and put duck tape over his mouth. He turned and walked out of the door, going towards some random place.

I looked around before running over to the room. I walked in and shut the door, going to the blinds that were hanging in front of the wall. I held the twisty thing with my teeth and turned it, shutting the blinds.

Blake muttered something and I walked over to him, smiling. He just blinked at me, shocked and frightened.

I sighed and walked behind the chair. I unsheathed my claws and sliced the ropes, freeing his arms. He brought his arms up and took the duck tape off his mouth. "What the fuck is a tiger doing here?!" he exclaimed.

I walked around the chair and jumped up, tackling him to the ground, purring. I licked his face and he tried pushing me off.

"Get off me!" he growled. "Stupid tiger!"

I jumped back and sat down, blinking at him. This isn't working, I thought. How do I let him know it's me- My eyes crossed a computer at the end of the room. I got up and walked over to it, jumping up on the chair and putting my massive paw on the mouse.

Blake stood up and watched me move the mouse, click a button and Microsoft Windows opened up.

"It's a pretty tamed tiger," he muttered. "But what's it doing here?"

I brought my claws back out and used them to type.

Blake walked over and read it.

Blake it me Skye.............. Im in tiger fom......... Im her to help ou........... Sara nd Ja nd Stom ar keepng a fe peopl busy.....

Stupid not being able to type properly with claws! Blake looked at me and I looked back at him. "Why don't you just become human again if you can't talk?" he murmured.

I shook my head and went back to the keyboard.

No way in hel.....

"Why not?" he asked. "Wouldn't it be easier to tell me it's you and then you change back or however you've turned into a tiger?"

Jay and Sorm hav my cloths........... Saras tooo.................

Blake was confused. "What!?"

i aint changin bak........ i dont feel lik freezin and standin in font of ou when i dont hav fuckn cothes.....

Blake shrugged. "I care why?"

I growled and tackled him.

"Okay, I get your point!" he said and I let him stand up. He erased everything I typed. "How are we getting out of here?"

I pricked my ears when I heard footsteps. "MR. CASSIDY! THERE'S AN ARCTIC WOLF RUNNING AROUND WITH TWO KIDS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

"That's Sara, isn't it?" Blake asked me. I looked at him over my shoulder and nodded with a smile.

I walked towards the door and jumped up, pressing the handle down and the door opened. I looked at Blake and growled.

"I'm coming, I'm coming," he said and followed me.

I looked out and saw a few guys running away from something. Blake looked out and he saw a white wolf jump up and pounce on them. They yelled in fear as Sara bit down on one of their arms.

"What the!?" Blake said. "Is she planning on killing them!?"

I shrugged and walked out, trotting a little, walking towards Sara and the men, Blake had to run a little to keep up with me. Tigers are pretty fast in a walk.

"AH! IT'S A TIGER AS WELL!" one of them yelled.

I smiled and bent my head down, sniffing his face. He froze and looked at me, a huge tiger's face right in front of his own. He laughed nervously. "Uh..... Good kitty?"

I growled and took in a breath, letting out a massive roar, scaring the shit out of him. Even the bravest man on Earth can't stand up to a tiger, and roaring was even scarier. I loved it!

"Skye, that's creepy!" Sara growled.

"Hey, you got to howl!" I growled back.

"So?"

"So, I get to roar!"

"Fine! Can I kill this guy? I'm hungry."

"Sure. I'm not gonna stop ya. Just leave my father to me," I said.

"Of course," Sara bowed a little and bit down on the back of one of the guy's throats. In one SNAP, he was dead, and blood was all over Sara's muzzle.

"AH! MY BEAUTIFUL MUZZLE!!!!!!!!!!!!" Sara whined, trying to lick it off. "MY MUZZLE IS STAINED WITH RED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! IT'S SUPPOSED TO BE WHITE!!!!!!!!!!"

"Chill out and have your meal," I said and walked over to Blake. "Then we can grab that stone and get out."

"Fine," Sara said and took a chunk out of the guy's neck, swallowing it down quickly. "BLEH!" she growled. "I'm not hungry anymore."

"Then let's go."

"GROSS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" I heard Storm and Jay and I turned my head to look at them. Even Blake was grossed out.

"You just killed that guy and nearly ate him!" Storm exclaimed.

Sara rolled her eyes and came to follow us. "Skye, lead the way," Sara growled. "All I can smell is blood."

"Me too, thanks," I replied but I was able to catch other smells. I followed one I knew well and I walked the way he went, the others followed me.

"Good to see ya, man," Jay said to Blake. "How'd you get kidnapped?"

"I was asleep," Blake muttered.

I snapped my head around to glare at them and I growled quietly. They were quiet and I moved swiftly into a crouch, stalking across the ground as we came to a corner. Sara was the same, the guys leaned their backs against the wall. I peered around the corner and I saw my father, talking to two men.

"IT WAS A WOLF WE SWEAR!" one of them said to my father, he wasn't pleased.

"Wolves don't live in Australia!" he said.

"Well that kid with the black hair said it was his wolf," I recognized them as the ones Sara attacked earlier.

"Kid?" my father echoed. "What did he look like?"

"There was two of them," the other guy said. "Both had black hair. They look like street punks and they're walking around the building now!"

"So she's here," my father smiled. "You said she was a wolf?"
They nodded.

I purred. "Sara, I need you to do something for me," I growled quietly.

"What is it?" she asked.

Blake and the other two looked down at us, growling at one another.
