I believe I spazzed. It was not pretty. It took all of the flock ten minutes to finally catch me, while I was running around the cam wildly while screaming my head off. And then it took Angel to practically sit on me to calm me down.

Turns out it was Fang who took my now furry face into his hands. He looked me straight in the eye and said, "Spark. Calm down. We'll figure out a way to get you back to normal."

That calmed me down. I pawed at Angel to let me up, and I sat u when she did. I took a deep breath, and began to speak. "Sorry guys. Anyone have any-" I broke off. I was a cat now. They wouldn't be able to understand me.

"Uh, Spark?" Iggy started, "We can understand you. Like we do Total."

I sighed in relief. Max continued what I was saying. "Okay, any ideas on how to get Spark into a less cat-like state?"

Angel raised her hand.

"Yes?"

She looked directly at me, and said, "Remember my shape changing ability? Well, I just focus on my original self, and I transform back. It's how I go to my other shapes as well. I simply focus."

"Hey, that might actually work!" I proclaimed, then focused hard on me as me normally.

The glowing started at my… paws, again, and a ribbon spread up. I felt myself growing, going up on two legs.

Before I knew it I was back to normal! With my clothes on. Please, no pervertedness.

"YES!" I jumped with happiness.

Iggy, Gazzy, and Nudge clapped. Angel cocked her head to the side curiously. "I wonder… is this another spontaneous mutation/ability?"

That stopped my celebrating. "What?!"

Max explained, "The flock has a tendency to… develop new abilities… spontaneously…"

Oh. "Oh."

Gazzy suddenly started asking, "Can you do that again?"

Over. And over. I think he's been around Nudge too much.

I sighed. Gazzy wouldn't stop unless I tried to be a cat again. Worse, Nudge had jumped on the bandwagon.

I concentrated on the glowing bands that began on my fingers, and they appeared. I then thought about my cat self, black fur with blue eyes, a pair of gold black wings, and flecks of pale gold throughout my fur.

Almost immediately I felt my self shrink as the band spread over me. When it was done I looked around, and leapt up on a stump next to Angel.

She let out a delighted cry and ran a soft hand along my spine. It felt good.

Max and Fang noticed then that I was back to being a feline. They had missed the whole Gazzy begging scene.

"Spark," Fang began, "We just fixed this. Why did you bring the problem back?"

"I can control it now!" I yowled happily, my tail waving, "See!"

With that I leapt off the stump and transformed back to human. Fang's eyebrow's raised, but he didn't say anything.

Iggy asked, "Can you transform into other animals? Like a wolf?"

"Or a fish!" Nudge interrupted.

I eyed her. "I'll… try a wolf first." I thought of the wolf pack that had taken me in right after I escaped from the Institute. I had stayed for two weeks.

I felt the glowing band rippled over me. This time, I didn't shrink as much, but I went onto all fours. My tail shortened and became fluffier, my claws cam out, shortened, and dulled. My face and nose elongated into a muzzle, and fur rippled over me as my clothes merged into my skin.

Voila. I was a wolfie. I turned to see my pelt. Still had wings. They were about the same size as usual, I noted. My pelt was a dark gray, with the occasional golden fleck and a paler belly.

"What color are my eyes? What does my face look like?" I asked Nudge.

She giggled for some reason. "Your face looks like a wolf's." Ha, ha, very funny. "You have cream rimmed eyes, and a paler muzzle, but the rest of your face is dark gray. Your eyes are blue, and there's one golden fleck on your nose."

What? My eyes were blue?! Wolves eyes are naturally yellow, or gold! Only the pups had blue eyes. This was beyond weird…

I took a deep breath and shifted to a human form once more. I turned to Iggy. "Okay, now for a fish."

I concentrated on a fish. Nothing.

I turned to Iggy and shrugged. "I can't be a fish."

Gazzy said, "Try a bird!"

I thought of my wings. Golden-Eagle wings. I felt myself shrink, and my arms were thrown back to merge with my wings. Weird…

Feathers rippled across me, and I now had talons. I could be a bird, too.

Nudge and Angel grinned. "Cool."

Gazzy interrupted, "But your eyes are still blue."

Huh. Guess that will never change.

I morphed back and found Fang and Max watching me. I said the most appropriate sentence I could think of at the time.

"Whoopee for spontaneous mutation…"

Sorry that one's a bit short. I hope you enjoyed Spark's new power. To make things clear, she can transform into birds and mammals. Not humans, not frogs, not fish.

But, what do you think about my choice for her new power? (it could have been spazzing, as seen in the beginning of the chapter, but can you blame her?)
