Charlie got down on his hands and knees, croutching like a lion. The tall gra.ss was hiding him from sight along with his sister and two brothers. One of the brothers had a dark brown pelt while the other had a hazel one. The sister had a very light one that almost looked white in the sunlight.

Unlike them, however, Charlie was part human when they were all lion. Charlie noticed a difference but he never said anything. If it really mattered then his feline parents would have said something.

Nearby there was a heard of antelope grazing. They were paranoid little things, those antelopes, always looking for others that will kill them. Well, they had good reasons to be paranoid.

The four siblings looked at eachother, signaling it was time. They launched themselves out of the gra.ss and chased the antelope. By this time the small mammals were hopping away, hoping that they could spare their lives. 

There was a small one in the back, walking on three legs due to injury. The siblings automatically knew that was their target and sprinted over to it. They two brothers jumped onto it's back while the sister and Charlie weighed it down. Soon the baby antelope was pinned down. 

The four creatures killed their prey and digged in. They growled while they ate their kill so that no other animal would steal the meat from them until after they were done.

When Akila was done eating she went to a lake to drink some water. She gulped some down. Then she layed in the shade. She looked at her mom and dad, who were looking at her brother, Charlie. Akila yawned.

Charlie could feel his parents staring at him from behind. It felt like their eyes were drilling holes into his back. He wondered why they often stared at him like that, like he was different. They would never stare at his siblings like that, just him. He sighed to himself, some things will never change.

Charlie wondered why he was the only one that looked human. He didn't feel human, and he didn't have the same characteristics of humans. Humans are an unbalanced and unskilled race while Charlie is not. Yet he didn't feel like he was a lion, he felt somewhere in between.

Akila padded over to Shane. "Why are Mom and Dad staring at Charlie?"She asked.

Shane just shrugged. Akila padded over to Charlie. "Don't mind Mom and Dad staring at you. I don't know why they are though."She said.

Dusk neared a wide learing in the jungle, it was more like the savvahnea than a jungle though. She heard yelling and hid behind a tree, there was no water to be found and she got breathe. She wasn't going to die, she told herself, she had just started. She scrambled to her feet and callapsed as she neared the sounds of the yelling. She gasped for air hoping they could help her as she blacked out...

((Charlie is the yelling person.))

"What is that thing?" Charlie asked his siblings. It didn't look like a shark, yet it didn't look fully human. It was like Charlie not fully one species, but a mixture of two.

Charlie could sense it's need for water so he picked it up and carried it to a nearby stream. He carfully placed it into the water.
