Echo in the Whispering wind- It is pretty funny! XD (Reply To Review For Pretending (Cinderblaze focused)
Featherflight123- I know right? I sure hope my parents aren't going to be like that! XD I like Cleon, that one's cool! :D Although I was thinking about a shipping name that isn't a blend of their names, rather it's personality traits, I've seen it done that way before (like for my pokemon couple Drippingleaves(Snivy/Oshowatt) shipping) and am leaning towards it :D
Snowcrystal of Thunderclan- okay, I'll write a sequel! XD Although there's no Briarfeather in this AU, it's Hollyleaves, Cinderblaze, and Halffeather, but you get to see Halffeather right? :D (I'm writing a cat special that features Fallenleaves and Hollyleaf :D)
iDragonSpyro (Guest)- I'm writing a sequel! I'm writing a sequel! :D
:) :) :)
So this is a chapter for one of my Warriors Compilation ideas called "Flick Of A Switch" a story I'm kinda disappointed on no one wanting me to write because it's a pretty cool world. :,(
Wild Sides Galore
Cynthia's wild: Cynthia's wild is named Cinder, she is quiet docile, gentle, and has an attitude similar to Cynthia's, although she is perfectly content to stare at Leon/Lion practically all day. The wild attributes she gives to Cynthia are stronger and slightly longer canine teeth, black cat ears, enhanced strength, speed, vision, and the ability to make Cheetah like vocalizations, purr, hiss, and growl. When Cynthia's flipped (meaning her wild is active and merged with her own personality) she tends to be very docile, quiet, and extremely affectionate towards Leon, sometimes purring for no reason besides the fact that he's in the room, her eyes darken from a sapphire blue to a soft azure color with slightly narrowed pupils and a loving glitter in her eyes.
The black ears that are usually not visible, perk up and are blatantly obvious, hence why she wears a cap while in heat (because Cinder is a feline wild Cynthia, unfortunately goes into heat that lasts up to a week and happens once a month, twice a month during the spring time) She becomes fully flipped -a term used for when Cinder is "controlling" her, basically overriding her temporarily- when she feels sudden, sharp, and strong emotions.
Leon's wild: Leon's wild is named Lion, he is fiery tempered, slightly obnoxious, proud of being the subject of Cinder's affection, and impatient for most thing. The wild attributes he gives to Leon are stronger and slightly longer canine teeth, golden blonde cat ears, enhanced strength, and the ability to make Lion like vocalizations, purr, roar, hiss, and growl. When Leon's flipped -which happens a whole lot of the time-, he tends to be impatient, a little arrogant around Cynthia, and is quite the hothead, his eyes change from amber to a fiery sunset color with slightly narrowed pupils and a fiery glint in his eyes. The golden blonde ears that was usually not visible, perk up and are obvious, along with his muscles being a little more defined. She becomes fully flipped when he gets hit or touched in a certain spot behind his right ear, or Cynthia is heavily insulted and actually cries. -a very rare occurrence.
Holly's wild: Holly's wild is named Leaf, Leaf is gentle, calm, level headed, and intelligent. The wild attributes she gives to Holly are sensitive hearing, black, black bear style ears, enhanced intelligence, a love for berries, and the ability to roar and growl like a black bear. When Holly is flipped -which doesn't happen very often- she tends to be even more level headed, collected, calm, and cheerful, her eyes darken to an intelligent forest green color with normal pupils and an intelligent gleam in her eyes. The black, black bear ears that are usually not visible, perk up and are obvious, along with a constant craving for berries and fruit in general. She becomes fully flipped when she stresses out too much over a test and Leaf takes over, completing the studying for her while leaving notes on how to do it.
Jay's wild: Jay's wild is named Blue-Jay, Blue-Jay is grumpy, shy, intelligent and strangely affectionate towards Joy (Bree's wild) The wild attributes he gives to Jay are blurry vision rather than being blind, grey speckled black wolf ears, enhanced senses, and the ability to make both bird-like and wolf-like vocalizations. When Jay is flipped -which happens when he is feeling particularly grumpy- he tends to be less grumpy, more social, shy around Bree, and quite affectionate towards her, his blind baby blue eyes lighten to an icy blue color with timid pupils and a slightly shy look in his eyes. The grey speckled ears that can't be seen when he isn't flipped, are visible and are slightly tilted back, along with trying his best to coax Bree -when she's flipped too- to not be so shy and join him in whatever he is doing. He becomes fully flipped when he gets ahold of thin mints.
Bree's wild: Bree's wild is named Joy, Joy is extremely shy, cheerful, and affectionate to everyone. The wild attributes that she gives Bree are the ability to walk for up to twenty minutes at a time with a break of two hours in between -when she's not flipped, ten minutes - dark brown husky ears, enhanced intelligence, and dog like vocalizations. When Bree is flipped -which happens randomly or when she's feeling overwhelmed- she tends to be happy, soft spoken with enthusiasm, and extremely shy around Jay, so shy that she will stutter and stammer, her amber eyes darken to a chocolate brown color with slightly rounded pupils and a shy and cheerful glitter in her eye. The dark brown ears that can't been seen when she isn't flipped become visible and flatten shyly. When she's fully flipped she is even more shy and isn't very sure of herself. She becomes fully flipped when Jay gets too close to her face at a slow pace and surprises her.

Holly's Wild
(eighteen)
Holly groaned and dropped her head into her hands, "Why do exams exist?!"
Cynthia looked up at Holly her textbook, a dark blue pen in one hand, "uh… because they do?"
"They're so stressful! I even color coded all of my notes for every class and I'm still nervous!" Holly complained, staring blankly at her math homework.
"It's okay to be nervous," Cynthia inputted, her blue eyes darkening to her wild color as her wild influenced her words, "everyone's nervous for something or other Holly."
"But still!" Holly complained and gave up on her math homework.
"Well," Cynthia sighed, closing her textbook and pushing it into her bag before slinging it over one shoulder, "I'm going to go find Leon and take care of this." She pointed to the baseball cap hiding her black cat ears, evidence of her current situation. "You should stop freaking out before Leaf takes over and does it for you." With those last words, she strode from their dorm room.
"Ugh." Holly sighed and rubbed her temples.
Do you want help, Holly? Holly jumped at the sound of Leaf's quiet and authoritative voice.
Yes! Please help me Leaf! I can't do this!
I will help you.
Holly stiffened, her eye color changing to a forest green, her black ears perked up, and she blinked once before focusing on her assignment, Leaf guiding her. After four years of having the wild around, she was used to her voice and the given abilities from the wild. I get it! Thanks Leaf! She exclaimed as she understood what the wild had been silently pushing her towards.
You're welcome.
Holly put her pencil tip down on the paper and began finishing the assignment, glad that Leaf was there lending her assistance.
Bree and Jay's Wilds
(seventeen)
"Hey Bree," Jay said, looking up as the brunette strode quietly into the kitchen.
Bree started and promptly tripped sending her crashing to the ground in a heap.
Jay's icy blue eyes widened and he leaned over the bar like counter to look at the flipped brunette who covered her face with her arms, her cheeks bright red from embarrassment. "Are you okay?" he asked, worry in his voice.
"Y-Yeah," Bree stuttered a little and blushed a little more, "You just s-startled me."
Jay got up and walked over to where she was pushing herself up into a sitting position and squatted in front of her, offering her his hand while looking away from her, a little embarrassed as well. "Sorry." He murmured.
"It's okay," Bree smiled shyly and took his offered hand.
Jay pulled her up to her feet and made sure she wasn't going to trip on anything again before asking her a question, "what're you doing in here anyway?"
"Nothing," Bree said quickly, looking away from him and clasping her hands in front of her.
Jay looked at her, silently studying her for a moment before smiling at her shyness, "looking for me?"
"N-no!" Bree stammered embarrassedly and turned around so her back was to him, "I w-wasn't looking for you."
Jay's smile turned into a small grin and he promptly walked over to her and put one arm around her shoulders, playing with her brushed aside bangs, blue eyes gleaming with amusement. "Okay, what did you need me for?"
"N-nothing!" Bree stuttered a little, stiffening in a little surprise
"Are you sure?" Jay teased playfully.
"Y-yes!"
"Okay," Jay said and removed his arm before going back over to his previous seat and getting back to work, his grey speckled black ears facing her direction. "Then I'm going to keep working on my homework."
Bree hesitated, shifting her weight a little as she watched him work. "Wait," she blurted out a moment later and blushed a bright pink, "I need y-your help."
Jay looked up at her and smiled, "okay, with what?"
Bree scooped up her fallen notebook and textbook and walked over to him, pausing and stopping about three feet away, shifting her weight nervously, "Can I?..." she trailed off.
Jay pushed his stuff over and sat down in another one of the bar-stool-like seats of the kitchen. "Of course."
Bree took a seat on the farthest seat away from him, tucking her bangs away from her face in the process, chocolate colored eyes gleaming with nervousness. "I don't u-understand this."
Jay picked up his things and sat down next to her before putting them back down, their shoulders brushing, "you don't understand what?"
Bree pointed to part of their chemistry assignment, her blush getting brighter from his proximity. "This, I-I'm not a c-chemical kind of p-person."
"Oh, here," Jay pushed over his copy of the assignment, "I don't get it either, Cynthia just gave me the answer."
Bree blushed harder but took the assignment and wrote down the answer in her usual almost bubble letter handwriting. She ducked her head and pretended to read in the textbook as she noticed Jay watching her, a slightly amused look on his face. "W-what?" she asked, not looking up.
"You're cute," Jay admitted with a small grin, "the blush is adorable."
"Thank y-you," Bree managed to say through her surprise, her ears twitching in surprise. "You're… y-you're not so b-bad yourself." She stammered.
Jay leaned over and pointed to a wrong answer on her assignment, looping his arm around her from behind in the process. "That's Carbon by the way."
Bree looked at him, "thanks," she murmured shyly and pushed her bangs away from her face once again.
Cynthia's Wild
(Seventeen)
Cynthia blinked and narrowed her blue eyes, attempting to hide her wild without anyone noticing she was having issues, if they saw they'd call Leon and make him come back and help. While she didn't mind his helping, when he was disappointed and irritable it was more of a hinder than a help and he always ended up accidentally making her feel guilty. I hate being a wild. She thought as she narrowed her eyes more and focused on the laptop in front of her. Why do I have to have it?
Because you do?
Shut up Cinder.
Ouch, that's plain rude Cynthia.
Cynthia tightened her hands into fists and took a few deep breaths before replying to the nuisance a.k.a her wild she had named Cinder. Well I'm sorry, but I am busy and you are making it near impossible for me and Leon to get anything done.
What? I'm offended! I am not hindering you from getting anything done.
And I'm a cat. Cynthia deadpanned and uncurled her fists before putting her hands back down on her keyboard to continue writing the essay that was due tomorrow.
Technically… you are a cat, you're a tiger.
Not a full one you crazy furball!
But you're still partially a tiger.
Hooray… Cynthia said sarcastically, thanks to you I'm part tiger.
It's not like it's visible or anything, it's just mental and stuff
Not visible? Uh huh, if that statement was true and I had a tail I'd bite it.
Okay, it's mostly not visible, happy?
You finally agree with me on something. Cynthia had to restrain herself from physically rolling her eyes. Now go away so I can think properly and not distracted by you and the side effects of being a wild. She narrowed her sapphire blue eyes in concentration and continued typing her essay, or at least trying to.
Hey, the side effects and stuff aren't my fault, it's early spring, not my fault.
What does that mean? You're around all year you annoying furball!
Yeah, but it's stronger in spring.
What's stronger?
You know what.
Obviously, I don't, if I did I wouldn't be asking.
The side effects, a.k.a being in heat, isn't my fault nor is it my fault that it is stronger during the spring.
Seriously? I haven't had an issue until you woke up, the first time I met you was when I was in heat and just about dying from it!
You would've had it even if I didn't wake up, I'm part of you remember?
Okay, I agree, Cynthia reluctantly admitted defeat, those aren't your fault, now will you please leave so I can finish this essay?
Fine, but only because Holly's going to call Leon and I get to be in charge.
What? Cynthia looked up from where she had been staring at her computer screen during her conversation with Cinder, to find Holly about to call Leon. She widened her eyes and shook her head, making a cut it out motion in the process.
Holly narrowed her eyes and pointed above her head where her ears would be if she was flipped, which she wasn't.
Cynthia reached up and felt the tips of her black cat ears and slouched, Well there's no way that I'm getting out of this one. She sighed.
"Hey, Leon? Are you almost done with practice? Cynthia's got her ears."
Leon's Wild
(Bree, Jay, Holly- 18
Cynthia, Leon- 17)
Leon wandered through the dorm, looking for Cynthia, his golden blonde ears swiveling slightly as he listened for her. Where is she? He wondered, he hadn't seen her all day and he had a suspicion that she was avoiding him because he was currently in wild mode, and that bothered him.
:) :) :)
"Cyn…" Leon whined, following Cynthia as she pulled a book out of the main room's bookshelves and started walking towards her and Holly's dorm room. "Why not?"
"Because I have things to do today," Cynthia replied as she walked, "and I don't want to be flipped right now." She promptly slapped his hand away from her ponytail, "no Leon."
"Cyndy…" Leon whined, stubbornly following her and continuing to try and play with her ponytail. "I'm bored…"
"I am not your boredom solution, I have things to do," Cynthia sighed and slapped his hand away once more as she stepped through the doorway of her dorm room.
"Yes you are," Leon decided, he then caught Cynthia's wrist before he spun her around, dramatically dipped her and flat out kissed her.
"Leon!" Holly gasped, scrambling to her feet as her friend tensed before she heard a small whine from Cynthia, meaning Leon had flipped Cynthia, on purpose. "You are so annoying!" She snapped at him, she and Cynthia had had plans for later, but that probably wasn't going to happen now.
Leon broke away from Cynthia, pulled her up and out of the dip, and looked at his sister, sunset colored eyes gleaming with triumph and a hint of smugness. "How am I annoying?" He looked down at Cynthia who pushed her face into his chest, gripping his shirt tightly and whining, the whine high pitched and pleading, obviously the wild wanted more.
"You just!... Argh!" Holly snapped, throwing her hands into the air.
Leon looked even smugger at his sister's inability to tell him off and he purred, Cynthia's black ears tickling his chin as she purred to get his attention. "What did I do that's annoying?" he asked, "I didn't do anything wrong."
"You just flipped Cindy on purpose!" Holly fumed, her green eyes flashing with annoyance, "she was supposed to go to a movie with her sisters and I and you just flipped her!"
"That's not completely my fault, you should've told me you were going somewhere," Leon replied a little smugly, having fun with poking fun at his sister and teasing Cynthia, it was extremely amusing to him and Cynthia's reaction made him feel rather important.
"Leon…" Cynthia complained, looping her arms around his waist and leaning up on her toes, "stop talking to Holly already…" she mumbled, looking at him through azure colored blue eyes.
Holly sighed, and pinched the bridge of her nose, she had to grudgingly agree with her brother, she should've told him and then they wouldn't be having this issue and she could've gone with Cynthia and her sisters to the mentioned movie. "Okay, you're right, I should've told you beforehand, I'll let Paige and Haliah know that Cynthia can't come." She sighed, watching Leon down slightly and playfully brush his nose against Cynthia's, teasing her.
:) :) :) :)
"I hate you." Cynthia snapped at Leon when he emerged from his dorm room, his golden blonde hair tousled from sleeping off his earlier wild side interaction. She was sitting on the couch in the main area of their dorm, leaning back against the cushions with her knees leaning up against one of the armrests, a book propped up on her thighs. Jay was sitting on the opposite end of the couch
"I know." Leon replied with a long sigh and plopped down on the couch next to her, running one hand through his hair.
"You made me miss the movie," Cynthia grunted, still not looking up from the book she was reading to look at him.
"I know." Leon sighed, looking at the flat screen t.v, his amber eyes slightly guilty.
"And annoy my sisters."
"I know."
"And you hurt my neck," Cynthia mumbled.
"I'm sorry." Leon apologized, looking at her neck where the right side was red, slightly inflamed, tender, and it probably hurt too.
"Cynthia, leave him alone," Jay grunted, adjusting his glasses and looking at the two of them out of the corner of his eye.
"Excuse me?" Cynthia turned her head to look at him and winced as the movement sent a searing pain up her neck. "He's the reason I can hardly move without feeling like I'm dying from my muscles being overworked from head to toe!"
"It's not just his fault." Jay grunted, "you were involved in it."
"No, it's my fault," Leon spoke before Cynthia could get angrier, "I triggered her on purpose."
"I can't believe you did that," Jay grunted with a disbelieving shake of his head.
"Hey, you kissed Bree when you were flipped, and not just an awkward one either." Leon defended himself, making Cynthia snort with amusement and hide behind her story.
Jay's cheeks pinkened before he shot back a retort that shut up his brother, "at least I'm not disappearing into a closed room with anyone whenever I'm flipped!"
Leon's amber eyes widened and he was silent, his cheeks pink as well.
Cynthia's face was burning and she closed her book with a snap, giving Jay a withering glare, "that is not our fault! Blame Cinder and Lion, not us!" She snapped before her tone changed to be scathing, "and you nearly did last summer!"
"We all promised not to say anything about that!" Jay snapped back, narrowing his eyes slightly.
"Well I am," Cynthia retorted, "I'm not the only wild who is wilder like during a season, Bree is too!"
"Hey!" Bree spoke up from where she was leaning against a kitchen counter, her arms folded crossly over her chest, "that was one time for two days!" she said indignantly, "and it hasn't happened since!" That particular subject was quite the sensitive one for Bree and Jay, the brunette usually didn't have any issues regarding seasons, but last summer everyone had been startled when she was stuck being flipped for two days, something that was similar to how Cynthia went into heat, although Bree's was much less severe and while Cynthia constantly ran a fever, she shivered like she was stuck in a freezer.
"What's going on?" Holly asked in confusion as she walked in the dorm and saw the four wilds looking aggravating and irritable.
The other four wilds went silent, Cynthia opened her book and started to read, Leon put one arm around her shoulders and focused on the t.v, Jay turned and avoided looking at Bree, Bree munched on a handful of jellybeans, her cheeks pink from embarrassment.
I'll upload another part of this is a little bit, but my computer was dying and I needed to get this up! :D I really want to write more of this world, it's quite funny! XD This was an experiment, if you guys don't like it I'll expand on the world but I won't post if you don't like it! :D
