Picking up on what Kyle was putting down, Mick was quick to shake her head and say, âNo! Hunter is not a problem. As a matter of fact, sheâs already been made aware of the supernatural, the only thing weâre aiming to keep from her is the fact that Sage is apparently capable of a range of emotions. Something Iâm glad to see youâve been working on yourself, since you at least bothered to ask about addressing the problem instead of just doing soâŚâ
Turning back over to the chef, she asked, âSoâŚany questions come to mind?â
âIf anything, my sister would be very enthusiastic about all of this.â She sighed, âBut I promise, she means no harm.â Her sister wouldnât hurt a sole, unintentionally.. the girl was very clumsy at times that it stressed Sage out. Her eyes turned to the Sheriff when she was prompted for questions.Â
âI.. no.â Well, that wasnât quite true, however she had a feeling that asking how shifting logically works probably wonât get her any answers that would make sense to her other it just being âmagicâ.  âJust even seeing this in person is.. unbelievable.â
âEnthusiasm for the supernatural world doesnât always translate to something benign,â she stated, her tone even and matter-of-fact. If anyone would know, it would be her after all. âHowever, I shall trust the word of all three present here and assume there is no threat to consider.â Glancing down at the red panda still in her arms, she maneuvered the critter into her jacket and zipped it up to keep her mostly hidden. âIf weâre done here, I think Iâll go ahead and get her back to the lab where sheâll be able to relax a bit more and hopefully change back so she can start on some of those pending diagnostics.â
With that, Kyle stood and headed out of the office, looking like a either a pregnant woman about to pop or someone who just indulged a little too much at dinnerâŚ
Nikki curled up easily into Kyle as she hid from the public and didnât complain at all that she was being led back to her work. While she did like her job, she was pretty swamped with the amount of reports she had to write. People, including the Sheriff, were waiting on results and these take time.Â
When they finally got to her lab, the red panda popped her head up through the opening and looked up at Kyle with a smile. âT-Thanks for bringing m-me to the lab.â She waited until she was released before she focused on shifting back. Once the human had replaced the animal, she immediately stretched her back. âI feel like.. I-I havenât shifted t-that fast in a long time.. It feels w-weird.â
