(Violet's POV)

The creature with the Hybrid Center Guards screeched, the sound piercing through my head.

I grit my teeth, and clamped my hands over my tiger ears, trying to stop the sound. It didn't really work.

It was wounded, and didn't serve much of a threat anymore, so my targets were the Guards. Dan was crouched next to me.

"We go after the Guards now, not the beast." I hissed to him. He nodded in response, and had this cute, determined look on his face.

Let's do this. I jumped off the tree, and snapped my wings open, keeping them closer to my body than I usually do, so I can fly through the trees easier.

The guards shot wildly, once one was down. The rest were pathetic. Dan, Darcy and I took care of them in no time.

Darcy landed next to the beast, and put her hand on its wing. It gave a sad, pained roar.

And turned into a boy.
