Cassel smiled. "Sure Mom," he responded with nonchalance, as if it were an everyday thing for them to play hide-and-go-seek. "Do you want to go first as IT?"

"Sure baby." Holly replied, and covered her eyes with ehr hands. "1...2...3...4..."

Cassel grinned, scurrying up a tree as fast as he could. As he neared the top, he half noticed the way the branches swayed when the wind blew. He didn't care though. He just didn't want to get caught.

"Ready or not!" Holly called, uncovering her eyes. "Hera I comeee!" she walked around looking around places she knew Cassel wasn't. She looked under rocks, and around the flag pole. "Hmmm.... Were could my little boy be?"

Cassel controlled his giggles, placing his hand on his mouth to keep from laughing. A random spasm of power ran through his fingers, and the next thing he knew, he was a tiny robin, falling down, the branches smacking him. The change was too distorting that he couldn't pull out his wings to fly. Another problem was the fact that Holly didn't know his gift was transforming, she wouldn't know that he became a bird.

Being a mind rearer, this shot terror through Holly. Pure, uncontrollable horrible terror. She ran to her little baby bird, and scooped him up. He fit perfectly in her two hands. "Cassel, change back, please change back." he voice was chocked up with fear.

Cassel looked up at Holly, shaking on his scrawny legs. He tried imagining a scissor cutting through the illusion of the transformation, but it wasn't undoing like usual. Drained, he sat down on Holly's palm, unable to do anything. The sturdy rise and fall of his chest was the only indication that he was still alive.

Holly sat on the ground and stroked Cassel with her pinter finger. She looked down at him, holding back tears.
