She tapped the girl on her shoulder. "Yes?" Amy turned to see the newcomer. "*MINE*." Aerie snatched Seth's body away from Amy so fast that Amy nearly fell over again. It almost looked like Aerie's prize was too suprised to stand up again as Aerie dragged him and the Persian into the alley, though as it happened, all four witnesses knew better. Amy blinked a few times, dusting herself off, and looked into the alley. "Well, excuse *ME*." Aerie ducked behind a garbage container so as to be out of Amy's line of sight. She never stepped out, even after the distinct flash of blue. A few minutes later, figuring they were not coming out soon, Amy sighed and went on her way, smiling as she engraved the face of the cute young man she just met into her memory. One blue flash later, Aerie stood over Seth's and Slasher's prone, limp forms on the beach of Seafoam. "Slasher. Seth's body is *not* something you make passes at other people with. You want a love life, wait until people know you for yourself first." Seth barely contained his mirth as Slasher wilted under Aerie's gaze. "If you want a human body...that can be arranged." Seth abruptly stopped. "Now, *try* to stand up, both of you. Maria's around here somewhere." As he struggled to his feet, Seth pondered, "What do you mean, 'that can be...'" *SHRIEK* "MOM!" "SIAN!" Both Seth and Slasher were on their feet instantly, racing towards the voice both of them knew by heart as if they were on Agility. Aerie blinked a few times at the rapid transition, then took the form of a Spearow and soared to catch up. TBC?
