Something is happening and I can feel myself moving. The animal side of me wants to thrash around and roar in defiance and it's all I can do to spot that. My teeth ache and I can feel my skin itching and burning as a pelt of fur tries to push through. I'm lucky this is so soon after the full moon or I might have lost it already.
"Don't- don't touch me," I huff, staying curled up in a ball. My fists are clenched tight, nails digging into my palms. I force myself to relax my hands. Pain is one of the things that can trigger the change. I close my eyes and focus on my breathing, making it steady.
"Don't do anything to me. Just leave me alone," I tell her. My heart is pounding in my ears and I work on that next, calming it down, slowing it. If I can get that under control I won't force a shift.
