"M-Maheegan?" Kiyiya said her name in awe, completely taken aback by her transformation. On his hands and knees, he backed up and felt himself shrinking. He had known Maheegan all of his life, but he had never known this about her. It had neither come up in conversation nor made itself present. There was a slight sting of betrayal, because Kiyiya felt that he and Maheegan had always had a special bond and that they could tell each other everything. Yet, she kept this a secret from him. Then, he understood, realizing he had also kept a secret from her.
A whimper came from his throat unintentionally, and that was when he realized he was resting on four paws instead of knees and hands. His white fur glimmered in the sunlight, showing off its black and gray speckles. He looked to Maheegan with shining eyes, one green and one blue. He was about to voice his surprise, relief, and excitement when he heard screaming and shouting coming from the village behind them. His ears perked up in alarm and he turned, taking off in that direction.
