PrologueA Chapter by ChloeMy name is Trinity. I am a shape shifter.
My name is Trinity. I am a shape shifter. What is a shape shifter you ask? It means I can change into anything. When I say anything, I mean anything. You name it. Animal. Weapon. Even another personality. It's not as much fun as it sounds. The pain during transformation is unbearable. It feels like a cold steel knife piercing through your skin. Even worse then that. Imagine the most painful thing on Earth. That's what it feels like.
If you ever see a thorny, red, sparkly flower. DO NOT TOUCH IT!!!! I learned that the hard way. It was a hot September afternoon, and I sat underneath the cool shade of an oak tree. I closed my eyes and took a deep breath of the crisp cool air. "Refreshing," I whispered to myself. I opened my eyes and glanced down at the green grass. Just then, a sparkle in the distance caught my eye. I squinted my eyes to get a better look. It seemed to have the figure of a flower. I stood up and walked towards the strange plant. I bent over to get a better look. It looked similar to a rose with its red tone. The strange thing was, it was sparkly. Not like spilling sparkles over it, but natural sparkles. It was thorny on all sides. I carefully pointed my finger towards it, and went to touch it. "Ouch!" I cried. The thorn had pricked my finger! Blood trickled from the wound, and onto the grass. It didn't feel like a normal pain though, it felt tingly and odd. I stood up and walked back to the tree. I sat back down, and once again, closed my eyes and relaxed. I looked up at the sky, staring at the birds in the sky. They soured through the sky, gracefully. I smiled, thinking about how amazing it would be to fly. Just then, my wound began to tingle. I looked down, and screamed. The wound had become a grayish tone. Strangest of all it almost looked like..... FEATHERS!!!!!!! The feathers began to grow all over my body. My mouth and nose began to feel odd as well. I reached one of my feathery hands up to my face. A BEAK!!!!!! I felt strange on the inside as well. I WAS SHRINKING!!!!!!!! 5 minutes later, I had turned into a bird!!!!! I flapped my wings up and down rapidly in a panic. I BEGAN TO FLY!!!!! I stopped immediately, terrified of falling, and stumbled down onto the grass. "I want to be a human again," I thought. Just then, the tingling began. I looked down at my wings, which were forming back into hands. I felt my face. It was forming back to a nose, then a mouth. Then I began to grow again. Another 5 minutes passed, and I was back to normal. I sighed in relief. "What just happened?" I thought. "The flower!" I cried. "Wait, am I...... A SHAPE SHIFTER!!!!!!!" I cried.
