After spending time with James on our last day yesterday, I had a pretty cool and chill day and I'm sure James did too even though we just watched movies but that was pretty cool too and I think we both ended up sleeping on the couch so James might be a little grumpy today...
                          
But anyways, it was the next day as I fluttered my eyes open to the sun shining thru the living room windows. But the problem was...I was in wolf form. I can already tell because my perception is different because well, I'm colorblind as a dog so all I see are greys and I'm furry so...dead giveaway.
                          
I growled a bit "not again" I said to myself, when I talk to myself I sound human but to others I sound like a wolf...or if you're Logan, he can understand me anyways cause well I'm his sister. I sighed and rolled my eyes and looked to see Logan still asleep just with his head back and mouth wide open snoring like a boar. 
                          
I giggled and hopped off his lap stretching and yawning a bit because transforming while sleeping and waking up into a wolf makes my body all stiff and sore and that really sucks. I sighed and looked at Logan and barked to wake him up. Logan growled and flinched awake with his claws at the ready.
                          
He looked around and saw me in my wolf form sitting on the floor. He sighed "Well shit" he said, I just nodded "somehow I knew this was gonna happen" He said, I just nodded and barked which made him sigh and rub his stiff and sore neck. James sighed and looked at his phone "Well we don't have time for this, are you ready?" he asked, 
                          
I just nodded "Are you good or do you need your leash?" He asked, I rolled my eyes and growled a bit "I'm fine but you might want it incase" I said to him, he chuckled and nodded as he attached my black spiked collar and leash "okay, let's go Wolfy" he said, 
                          
I growled at him which made him chuckle "Easy girl, you know I'm just teasing" He said, I rolled my eyes...I hate getting called that especially in my wolf form...or I'm just always irritable as a wolf cause well...I'm a fucking wolf...
                          
Anyways it was early in the morning around 5am, Logan grabbed our suitcases as we headed out of our cabin and looked at it one more time and reminisced all the good times we'd have here "If shit goes sideways we can always come back" he said, I just nodded as we started to walk somewhere "I hope you know where you're going" I stated, 
                          
Logan looked at me and chuckled "I do know. I've been to this place many times before" He said, I furrowed my eyebrows a bit "then how come I'm only hearing about it now?" I asked, Logan sighed "a lot has happened when you were little and I didn't want you to get into all that mess while you were still transforming so whatever Charles was dealing with, he had other friends and mutants to help him out so I stayed with you. Plus the others are a bunch of smartasses cause they're young like you so staying at a boarding school wasn't my thing but since we can't figure out what's making you transform we're gonna need all the help we can get...and who knows you might make some friends cause I want you to be happy sis" he said,
                          
I just smiled and rubbed up against him "you do make me happy James why do I need anyone else?" I asked, he chuckled and pet my furry head "Because I'm not gonna be around forever and if something happens I want you to be surrounded by friends and other people you love" He said, 
                          
I frowned a bit "plus you're still young and I want you to live your life and do anything any young adult would do" he said, I just smiled softly and nodded "I'll try but I can't promise anything" I said, Logan just smiled and rubbed my head which made me bark with delight...I like being petted in my dog form...i'm not ashamed to admit that.
                          
As me and Logan kept walking, I looked around seeing nothing but trees for miles and damn was I getting distracted by all the birds and creatures I could see...Logan had to pull on my leash a few times because damn did I love chasing small creatures.
