Seeking Help
One of the few benefits about being a shapechanger who was stuck in animal form was that Alex always traveled light. He didn't have to worry about clothes or toiletries or other stuff like that. Of course he'd still rather be able to take human form again for a lot of reasons. A certain purple girl was one of them.

Alex flew down to Xavier's in falcon form and landed just inside the gate. He would have preferred dragon for a long flight, but he didn't want to scare anyone. It was best not to ruffle the feathers of the natives when you showed up asking for help. Not to mention he didn't feel like getting into a fight over a misunderstanding.

He landed and shifted to orangutan. He would have used the gate buzzer, but not being able to talk made it a little difficult. Taking a deep breath, he made his way to the front door and then knocked.

	He could turn into a beagle. That was just so COOL. Ellie couldn't help but squeal just a little bit. "Right this way!" As they walked, she turned her head over her shoulder, "Your powers are cool, by the way. What else can you do?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	//I can, but I have trouble keeping human form. I haven't been able to hold it more than a few seconds since I was twelve. I'm hoping Professor Xavier will help me learn how to hold it longer.// He shifted to a white tiger as he followed her. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"You know what you should do after the Professor helps you and you can be human?" A devious grin crossed Ellie's face. "I think you should sweep her into your arms the next you see and give her a big kiss, right on the lips!" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)
