Jason sat on the beach, enjoying the cool breezes that blew so close to the shore. His feet were bare, his sneakers sitting in the sand besides him, the cold water lapping at his toes. He wore only a tank top and a pair of shorts, despite it being fall. Nothing else was comfortable.
He wanted desperately to know what was happening to him. Nothing had seemed right for the past few days. He was constantly burning hot, like he was running a fever, and he had a splitting headache almost constantly. Aspirin hadn't helped him in least, the doctor thought it was just some bug. But Jason didn't agree with him. He never got sick like this.

Winter loved the Fall, it was her favorite season and the beach was her favorite place so it was no surprise to find her there on a daily basis. Dressed only jean mini skirt, and a black t-shirt Winter strolled up on the beach. When she arrived she notice she was not alone. She could see a guy sitting there near He had removed his shoes and and was sitting there just in a tank top and short,the first person who came to mind was Jacob.
He dress similar to the guy sitting in the sand but she just knew it was not him. Approaching slowly Winter walked silently, something what came with being a shifter. She did not want to startle the stranger that was sitting there s she kicked a rock making her presence known before she spoke. " Hello, I have not see you here before." outfit

Jason heard the sound of a rock tumbling nearby, and looked up to see a girl, around his own age, he supposed, making her way towards him. She was dressed in a mini-skirt and a t-shirt, and nothing more than that, which surprised him. It was fairly cold out. Maybe she was burning up like he was? Who knew.
"Yeah, I don't come out here much. Just needed someplace quiet to think," He told her, before standing up and brushing the sand from his hands and pants. He then held his hand out for her to shake. "I'm Jason," He said.

Winter watched at the guy who she just notice turn around and looked at her, He wasn't anyone she recognized so she smiled as she liked meeting someone new. " The beach is a great place to think, I come out there almost everyday." Watching the guy get up, wipe his hands off , introduce himself hold out his hand for a shake She smiled again.
" It nice to meet you Jason, my name is Winter. I know it not the typical name you hear regularly. I don't really know what went thought my parents heads when the name me." Winter laughed. She could feel unlike shaking a normal humans hands that his body temperature was close to hers. It made her raise an eyebrow a bit but she did not say anyhting about it. " Do you live in La Push?" [/size]

As he shook her hand, he noticed that her body temperature felt no different from his own.He also saw her raise her eyebrow when she did. It made him start to think that there was something that she knew, and he didn't. Maybe she could clue him in. "Nice to meet you, Winter," He said with a smile, "I don't think that ]its that weird of a name."
He shook his head when she asked if he lived there. "No, I live in Forks," He told her, "I'm guessing you live in La Push?" He couldn't recall ever seeing her at Forks High School, and he was normally good at remembering faces.

Winter smiled when he said her name was not too weird, "I never said it was weird what I meant i was not even born in the Winter, I don't have pale skin or light hair, I think I am more of a Autumn." Winter laughed and tucked a bit of hair behind her ear. "You live in Forks, Not many kids from works come down in the colder weather, They are usually here when it is warmer, and more like summer.
Winter looked out into the water, just looking at it you could tell why people from all around go and visit La Push, the beach was beautiful, and the waves were Epic. " Yes your right Jason, I was born and bred right here in La Push, My family are of Quileute decent. My whole family has always lived here, maybe one day I will leave though. Winter crossed one leg behind the other as she spoke she realized waht she was wearing and in that weather she should be cold.She just hoped Jason would not begin to question her abot her choice in clothing. [/size]

He chuckled at her comments about her name, and nodded as she mentioned that not many kids from Forks came to La Push, outside of the summer. "Like I said," Jason told her, "I wanted someplace quiet to think. I figured the beach wouldn't be too busy, considering how cold out it is." He could've made a comment about her clothing, but it wasn't like he was exactly dressed appropriately for the weather either. Plus, considering how warm she felt when they shook hands, she was probably comfortable.
"My family's only live in Forks since I was three," Jason told her, "If you were going to leave, where would you go?" There was curiosity in his voice as he spoke.

Winter shrugged. " Are there not many places in Forks to go to think? Winter never ventured to Forks much thought she was allowed to she did not have a car only a old dirt bike, It had it's issues and almost seemed like it was going to break down any minute. As the minutes went by Jason became more interesting to Winter, his sick was warm, he was not dressed for the weather and he has not always been from Forks.
" I Don't know where i would go Canada is not too bad been there a few times Were where you born? maybe I will go there." Winter began to think maybe there was something about where is was born could help her understand more about why he is dressed the way he is besides the obvious you a shape shifter conclusion she usually comes to meet someone as warm as she is.

"I'm sure there are," Jason said with a shrug. "Just felt like coming here." He felt like something had drawn him to La Push today, like he would find answers to what was going on with him, for some reason.
"I was born in Seattle," He told her, chuckling slightly, "Not much more interesting than Canada. Probably less considering you'd still be in the same country." His smile quickly left his face as he felt a sharp pain in his side. He looked away from Winter, trying to hide his pained expression as he clutched at his side. It had been happening a lot lately, and it was really beginning to annoy him. He'd hated this; not knowing what was going on with him lately. He was sick of being so confused.
A moment later, he felt his body start to change, his bones and muscles start to shift and stretch. It happened in a flash, and he felt like he suddenly burst out of his skin. He suddenly felt powerful, and fast. What he did not realize was that he had shifted; that he was currently a tiger that was the size of a horse.

Winter hoped she was not seeing to rude asking so many questions but she was just curious it was natural for a seventeen year old girl to be, especially when meeting a new boy. She was still quite curious when he mentioned Seattle, she thought he might have been from somewhere where she had hear other sifters had come from She had never heard of one from Seattle. Just as Winter was going to mentioned how much she liked Canada Jason grabbed his side and he looked like he was in pain.
" Are you okay? Winter got her question out just in time to see him change and burst out of his cloths. Winter Jumped back quickly almost so shocked to see the boy change into a horse sided tiger. Her heart beat began to speed up and she was trying to keep herself calm. " Your a Shifter..but...a..tiger.." Winter got focused and walked around him, slowly she heard of wolf shifters but never tigers. " I know this might be strange for you right now but when you calm down you will be fine, I cant say the same for you clothes. Your first phase is aways the worst" [/size]

Jason focused his eyes on Winter, keeping them on her as she moved around him. Every sense was enhanced now; he could hear her heartbeat quickly. He could smell her, too; her scent was similar to his own, but there was a subtle difference between them.
He listened intently to her words. A shifter? This had to be a dream, a weird dream...people didn't turn into tigers. They just didn't. But everything felt so real. He moved past Winter headed for the trees at the edge of the beach. He didn't like being out on the sand. He felt too exposed. Confusion, and his annoyance because of his confusion, still swirled in his mind. He needed time to think.

Winter ran after Jason, As he went and hid himself, she would help him, wanted to her first phase she was out alone in the forest ans did not know what was going on with her. "Jason,"Winter said softly. " You need to listen to me,I can help you, explain all of this. I am a shifter too.I'm not a tiger thought. I'm am more like a werewolf. I am the size of a small horse. Your about the side on the other guys here in La Push" Winter placed a hand on his face trying to calm him, She did not want him getting upset and running through La Push he was not from here, and did not know the place you go when you wanted to keep yourself in your animal form. She knew he might be like this for a while and she was sure if she phased she would not be able to hear him, Winter would just have to try to get him to calm down so she can explain things to him.
" After you have calmed down and phased back your going to need clothes, Let me go phase, I will take you around to the back of my house, get you a pair of sweat pant. I will stay with you till you change back, I don't care if it takes a few days, because I bet you have a lot of questions and I do also. If it takes a while I can call your parents maybe say I broke my leg and you took me to the hospital or something. Winter could stop talking she did not know what the other would say when she explained this to them, that hey were not the only Sifters in the area.
"I will be right back." Winter ran a short distance away, she striped down out of her clothes and tied them to her leg before shifting. Her fur was gray, but her eyes where the same color brown as they were when she was human. walking up beside him she nudge him in the shoulder to get him to fallow. " this way"She thought not knowing if he could hear er thoughts. There were a few things she would have to teach Jason to do also. Winter would have to just go with it and see how everything was about to play out. [/size]

Jason wasn't exactly surprised that Winter followed him. She offered him answers, which was, after all, exactly what he wanted. She claimed to be a shifter too, a wolf, and that she would explain all this to him. He wasn't sure whether to believe her. As she placed a hand on his face, he looked into her eyes; she looked like she was telling the truth. As she told him to wait, he sat back and waited for her to return.
Despite what she'd told him, he was surprised to see a wolf-a giant wolf-walk towards. But he recognized her scent, and as she nudged his shoulder, he stood, following her. He couldn't hear her thoughts in his mind, but he got the idea quickly enough.

Winter looked around the area hoping no one had already seen Jason, She knew no one had seen her but there had already been reports of big bears in La Push but a orange and black bear could not be explained at all, even from a distance he looked like a tiger there was not saying he was another animal.Running a bit to get into the thicker woods Winter kept looking back at Jason to make sure she was not to far away from her, He knew he could understand her in her human form but he phase she had not heard his voice in her head everything was silent.
Winter was beginning to hope that Jacob was around she had not seen him, or a member of the pack Winter knew she might be alone in handing Jason and they just met. Winter shook her head a bit clearing her thoughts what a good way to become friends, learn that each other are sifters after ten minutes of conversation. Winter stopped running for a minute she thought she had smelled a few hikers She looked back a Jason and crouched down and showed her teeth she was not to be meant to be a mean gesture it was a way that the wolves showed dominance and wanted the other guys to listen. Sticking her ears up to listen carefully she could hear some laughing and people walking the would have to stay hidden for a minute or to just long enough to not be seen by the hikers [/size]

Jason kept close to Winter, watching her every move as she made her way through the forest. He didn't know much about the layout of La Push, beyond where the beach was, and so he didn't really want to get lost. It occurred to him that he might be here a while, and he didn't want to end up lost for most of it either.
He titled his head at the gesture she made, not understanding it. He heard the hikers, and could smell them as well. He took a few steps deeper in the forest, crouching down in the shade and remaining perfectly still. Lucky for him, he had natural camouflage from his stripes.

Winter was glad that Jason stepped deeper into the forest after she tried to tell him too. She was really good at keeping herself hidden and she was not going to let the hikers see Jason if she had to run in front of them and scare then off. It took about five minutes or so for Winter to feel the hikers were far enough away not to find them. Standing back up and walking again Winter felt like it should now be safe to get the rest of the way. She wanted to get to her house,phase back into her human form so she could talk to Justin again and explain things.
Winter remembered how sacred she was not knowing what was going on with her, though Jason was still a stranger to her he was the only one outside of pack to know her secret and she was the only one to know his. Winter knew she was going to have to learn to trust a stranger and he would have to trust her. She never had been more glad living near the most wooded area of La Push, She knew when she finally got to her house that she did not have to worry about anyone who did not know the shape shifters secret seeing him behind her house. Speeding up and running, Winter ran at a slower pace then usually but it only took her another two minutes to get home. Running a bit faster the Jason, Winter phased back behind a tress at yelled at him. " Jason stop running, Let me get my clothes on" [/size]

Jason listened to the hikers through the trees, anxiously waiting for them to move on, so he and Winter could as well. Finally, after five minutes or so, Winter got up, and started moving again. Jason quickly followed suit, keeping on her tail until picked up the pace, disappearing behind some trees. He was about to follow, when he heard her voice call out, telling him she was going to dress.
He lay down, keeping his distance to give her privacy. He made a mental note to start carrying an extra set of clothes with him, at least an extra pair of pants. If he shifted at random, he didn't want to get caught naked, or arrested for indecent exposure.

Slipping her clothes back on and tying her hair back in an elastic, Winter steeped back out behind the tree and walked over to Jason. She smiled it was good to knew once again what she was saying and was talking about. "Obviously from what you have seen from my example you can phase back. After it happens the first time it take a bit to get yourself calm enough and ot think clearly enough to change back, some people just can in five minutes other sot so much so take days."
Winter walked around him one more, she had barely seen a tiger in the zoo, she never though someone could shift into one she found it fascinating and wanted to know more about Jason and his background. Winter was Quileute and they had legends about their tribe descending from wolves.She wonder if there was something like that in Jason's past too."I can wait here to you change back or if you want I get you a pair of sweat pants then come back. Maybe when i get back I can tell you what helps me change back. blind once for me to wait or blink twice for me to go" [/size]

Jason had already figured out that he would be able to shift back eventually; it wasn't really necessary for Winter to point it out to him. What he was interested in was how long it would take. Days? He thought, suddenly panicked. What would happen if it took him days? His parents would probably report him missing. How would he explain that he was a tiger?
He shook the thoughts from his mind. He needed to calm down, so that wouldn't happen. When asked what he wanted her to do, he blinked twice, letting her know that she should go get sweatpants first. He'd rather not be stuck waiting around naked for her to go get it after he shifted back. It'd be awkward if someone came across him.

Seeing Jason blink twice, Winter nodded. "Okay,I will be right back," she added and ran to her house. Winter father had a bunch of old clothes in his closet that his he could no longer wear after his waist expanded from over the years. Winter dung thought the box till she found a pair of sweat pants that did not look overly old in style and an old plain gray t-shirt. She head her mother in the living room but ignored her totally. Grabbing a drink from the fridge she headed back outside to where she had just left Jason. She placed the cloths down on a stump, all nicely folded. "I think though will be okay right?" She asked.
