Avril made her way back to where she'd stashed her belongings, rather pleased with the outcome of her hunt. It was satisfying meal wise and she'd even managed to pick up a few bones she'd later use as dagger handles. Avril found herself accumulating more and more recently. She supposed it was good to have extra, especially how often she used them.
Looking towards the sky, Avril realized the sun was just breaking over the horizon. She wold be late for her classes if she didn't hurry. Avril would have to speed all the way back to her apartment, take a quick shower, and change into some decent civilian clothes. Avril tended not to own very much of a "human" wardrobe. It all just felt wrong against her skin, too open. Like she had a shield down.
Before crossing the line of trees dividing her from her stashed belongings, Avril sat in her wolf form, dropped the few bones she'd grabbed from her mouth and closed her eyes. Changing back into her human form now would save her a little more time. Okay, calm yourself completely. Expel all thoughts from your mind. Avril hated the idea of having to change back into her human form. It felt like she was leaving a part of herself behind in the woods. Only when she returned to her true form would she feel complete again.
With an ear splitting crack, Avril's bones shifted and realigned to fit a human's and er fur began to fade, leaving behind her too pale skin. Avril yawned and stood up, stooping down to collect her animal bones. Looking down at herself, Avril realized her bare skin was covered in blood. Her leather motorcycle jacket and pants would cover the blood and her nudity until she reached her "home". Regretting, Avril neared the line of trees and froze. The man from the bar. She could smell him. Now that his sent wasn't masked by alcohol Avril could tell that he was like her. But obviously from a different pack. What on earth could he want with her? A guttural growl escaped Avril's lips, it sounded like it could have belonged to her wolf form. "What to you want?" Avril spat, eyes narrowed, still slightly hidden by a few lingering shadows. She was still naked and wasn't fond of the idea of letting a stranger see her.
