I got this idea recently, and I'm not optimistic that this will continue. In this you are a Herskon (or as humans call you The Others), or a human. A Herskon is a person with the ability to change into a creature, real or mythical. The story is set in the city of Oryak. There is a underground war that is finally surfacing. Dead humans and Herskons are appearing all over the city and families of the deceased are out for revenge. (Before you mess this up, but no magical skills, not including the changing thing.)

Name:Kersko
Race:Herskon
Form:Wolf (don't get confused with a werewolf. mine looks completely wolf.)
Human:White hair, red eyes, pale skin.
Wolf: http://photobucket.com/mediadetail/?media=http%3A%2F%2Fi166.photobucket.com%2Falbums%2Fu86%2Fsexylittlemunchkin%2F13955n2at845krt.jpg&searchTerm=white%20wolf&pageOffset=14

Kersko

My mind raced as I say my brother, Leskon, dying in front of me. Tears ran down my face, but I was numb to them. "Kersko," Leskon said with a pained breathe, "I want you to have this." He pulled off the necklace that he always wore. On the end of it was a red stone, the symbol for the Fresko family, my family. "Take this it's rightfully yours." He put it around my neck and laid back down. With one final painful breathe he was gone.

k, we need a human lol Very Happy

Name: Sanon

Age: 17

Race: human

Appearance: short black hair cropped carefully above his ears. Hazel eyes and bony, angular features. Tall and lean.

personality: Stubborn and clever, will try everything he can to get what he wants. however, if someone can prove they're stronger or smarter than him, he will respect them, though he will always try to find loopholes in their words. He hates Herskon with a vehement loathing, but, thought he won't admit it, he's terrified stiff of them.

*We need some one to continue the storyline*

Kersko

I sat there staring at my brothers lifeless body. I promise I'll kill who ever did, I thought. I turned my wolf form and ran off down the alley.

"Stop you Other," cried the human police when I neared the street. I stopped noing it be best if I didn't oppose them. I shifted back to human and waited for the police to catch up. "It's cerfew for The Others, what are you doing up."

"I was just getting home, sir," I replied. "I had some family business to attend to."

"Sure, and I'm the mayor," the officer said cruely. "I might have to take you in." He pulled out a pair of cuffs. "Now come on."

"I'm not going in."

"You dare oppose me, Other."

"Yes." The officer pulled out his gun, but I was already running down a alley as a wolf.

Name:Shana
Race: Herkson
Age: 21
Form: Basilisk
Appearance: Tall, lean. Wears simple clothes, with green bead bracelet. Vivid green eyes.
Pale hair, long hair, always worn bound up.
While in basilisk form, she is a eight foot long snake, a dull green colour with bright yellow markings around the face. Eyes stay vivid green, but for safety reasons she doesn't look anyone in the face.

Personality: Sly and quick-witted. She has a quick and venomous temper, but it just as quick to calm down. She has a sarcastic sense of humour and has a extremely strong will.

***

I was keeping to myself, not harming anybody, and making sure I wasn't caught out after curfew. Curfew always annoyed me, so I ignored it completely.
But, as I was wandering down the allyway, on the way to a other-friendly bar to get something to eat, a wolf flew around the corner and barely missed hitting me.
"Oi! Watchit, mister!"
Stepping out of the way, I gave him a cold, hard, look. Luckily for him I was currently in my humanoid shape.
The herkson stopped, panting.
"Curfew. Sorry."
He made to move away, but I wanted to know what he was up to after curfew.
"Wait. Who are you? I'm Shara. And what are you doing out?"

Sanon leaned against a tree, looking up at the stars. What was the point of being on the guard if there was nothing to watch? No Other would try to leave town. Why wouldn't they let him be in the actual city?

He scowled. He couldn't go into the city, though; he'd be in prison before he could say "Herskon". All he could do was sit out here, wasting the night away, being bored.

Sanon sighed and casually twirled his gun. He enjoyed having a gun. It made sure no one would come near him, and he liked that.

He glanced back out at the city, wanting something--something--exciting to happen.

Name: Nealanthiye Cardigall (Nellie)
Age: 13
Race: Herskon
Form: Bobcat
Human: Long brown/blonde hair that is kept in a long ponytail with bangs to one side hanging in her face. Skinny figure because she doesn't get much to eat. Blue-green eyes.
Bobcat:

Nellie was trying to sneak past a policeman. He was talking to another one and she snuck around and once she was out of veiw she started to run. She knew her Step-dad would kill her if she was late. She tripped over something, probably her own feet, and went face first into the ground. She was scratched up all over her face and arms and knees. Someone went over to help but she just got up and ran home. She opened the door quietly and sneaked in. Right before she closed the door a voice boomed at her.

"Where have you been?" He asked looking at her scraped and smirking.

"Sorry. I came back as fast as I could."

"You're past curfew. I might have to turn you in." He said.

"Please! Don't! The last time was horible!" She begged.

"You shall adress me as Sir." Nellie seemed to have found some dignity and stood strait.

"Never." She spat.

"You ungrateful worm!" He shot up and she flew out the door. He was chasing her but she fell again. She cursed as he pulled her up and dragged her over to a cop nearby.

"She was out after curfew." He said to the cop. Nellie was squirming and screaming at him.

Kersko

"I'm Kersko," I said shifting back to human, "and I'm an innocent person being chased by a human police officer."

"Human police," Shara said, "dammit. Follow me." Shara grabbed my arm on pulled me down a street and into a bar. "Don't worry this is a Herskon only bar."

I pulled my arm away. "It's quite obvious your Herskon too. I'm from the family Fresco." I showed her the red stone necklace my brother gave me. "You."

"The Slikan Family," Shara said exposing here emerald necklace.

Kersko

"Well Kersko," Shara said, "nice to meet you." Then suddenly a small scream reached my ears. My head shot up. "What?"

"Someone's in trouble," I replied.

"Who?"

"This bar is messing up my nose, we got to get out of here." I ran out of the bar on all fours with Shara closely following behind me. As soon as we got a distance from the bar I picked up the scent. "I got it, smells like a feline. It must be a Herskon."

"Wait I see the police up there, and they got a girl. Is that her." I nodded. "Then let's save her." But before she got the words out of her mouth I was running towards the police.

I headbutted the officer, knocking him over, and dropped the girl. "Run," I said to the girl, "now. If you go the way I came, there's another Herskon. Go."

I bared my teeth at the officer. "Stand down, or I'm authorized to shoot," the officer said. I growled deeper. "That was my only warning." The officer pulled out a gun but I got under his gunfire and headbutted him and ran to catch up with Shara and the other girl."

Nellie couldn't beleive she was running from the cops and her step-dad. She was out of breath as she stopped. The others were running still till they noticed she stopped. She had already ran so much. She was trembling and panting.

"What's wrong? Surely you can't be that worn so fast." The man said.

"How could you-That was a police officer! You're gonna get arrested!"

"Not if they don't catch me."

"Yeah, well, I have to go back eventually. And my Step-dad is gonna lock me up for good for asult!" She started to cry from fear and the girl touched her shoulder. She backed off and tried to run but he grabbed Nellie.

"Calm down." He said.

"Let go of me." Nellie growled.

"Why should I?" He snapped.

"Cause I'll scream." She glared at him.

"We just saved your ass back there," Kersko said, "why would you wanna turn us in."

"I will if you don't let me go," the girl replied.

"Do you wanna go back there and turn yourself in."

"I have to, back there is my only chance at a normal life."

"There will be no normal life for us."

"How do you know I'm a Herskon?"

"You smell of a feline. What are you?"

"A bobcat. What does it matter to you?"

"You're a Herskon," Shara said, "then you're a friend. What is your family."

"What?"

"Family, as in I'm the Shara from the Slikan Family, and this is Kersko from the Fresco Family." The girl looked at us cluelessy. "Do have a stone necklace." Shara pulled out her necklace.

"Oh, those," the girl said pulling out a blue stoned necklace.

"I think that's the Narfan Family Stone," Shara said. "What's your name?"

"Nealanthiye Cardigall, but you can call me Nellie."

"Well, greetings Nellie of the Nerfa Family."

Kersko

"Well we're Herskons like you," I said. "My family is the Fresco or wolf."

"And my family is the Slikan or basilisk," Shara said.

"And you being Narfa, you're the bobcat."

"I still don't understand this," Nellie said, "I lived with humans all my life."

"Well each family is a group of Herskons with same forms. So anyone who's a wolf is a Fresco Family."

"Thanks for telling my lineage," Nellie said, "but I have to get back to my father. He's going to punish me if I'm late."

"Is he the one who turned you in." Nellie nodded. "Then why go back if he's going to turn you in?"

"He's the only family I got," Nellie said starting to cry.

"Then we'll help you find your real Family."
