Orphan Transformations, Leon

It was Leon's first birthday as an orphan. After both his parents died in a car crash three months prior, all he has left from them is the Silver Wolf pendant his father gave him for his birthday last year, for they knew how much Leon loved wolves. At the orphanage, his love for wolves has gotten him bullied, harassed and hurt, making him barely able to enjoy any moment. But, on his birthday, someone had a special gift, just for Leon, the greatest gift he had ever been given.

His birthday started out like a normal day, no one really cared about birthdays. Then noon rolled around, and his 6 friends, had a surprise for him. Leon was sitting on his bed, waiting for some to care about his birthday.

Leon heard his friend speak to him, "Hey Leon. You awake?" he got up and looked to find his friend Zeo "Oh, hello Zeo, how are you?" He said "Fine. You?" Zeo said. "Fine, i guess" Leon said, feeling like his is just another day to everyone else. "Oh, that reminds me, the others want to see you." Zeo said. "Oh, ok" Leon said, he then got up, ready to follow Zeo. "Right, come on then." Zeo said. Leon nods and follows Zeo.

I hope he'll enjoy what we have planned today... Zeo Thought. Leon continued to follow Zeo, who led him to the other 5 kids. "Hey guys, I brought the sleepyhead here." Zeo said. It was then that another of Leon's Friends, Taka, greets Leon, "Hey Leon, and Happy Birthday." Taka Said. These words made Leon feel much better. "Great to have you as a friend Leon. Happy birthday" Zeo said. Leon quickly realized his friends cared about his birthday, his mood took a big turn for the better, "thanks guys" "No problem Leon." Zeo said.

After a couple hours playing his friends, Leon was much happier, "Thanks again, guys. I'm headed to my usual spot in the forest" "Okay. We'll see you later today then." Zeo said, watching his friend leave. Leon then outside and into the forest. As Leon approached his usual spot, he listened to the peaceful animal sounds.

Then suddenly, Leon heard the sound of a twig breaking. He turned around to see something he thought he'd never see like this. There he was, standing only a small distance away from a living, breathing, full-grown, female grey wolf.

Leon couldn't believe his eyes; he was standing face to face with his favorite animal species in the world. The wolf stood her ground, staring at the young human before her. She knew of what today was and was ready to give the boy his gift, one that would change his life. Leon then slowly walked closer to the grey wolf, his hand reached out to pet her.

She allowed his hand to touch her, stroking over her fur. She smiled inwardly, enjoying the treatment. With this, Leon felt safe enough, and began petting her gently. "Wow, you're so friendly, and thanks to that, I've been able to interact with you, how can this day get any better?" Leon Said happily.

The wolf looked into his eyes, sending a small pulse when both eyes locked, delivering her gift. Leon felt something enter his body, and he felt a little dizzy. He stopped petting the wolf and sat down near her. "Whoa, what happened just now?" Leon asked. With her task done, the wolf sat down on the ground, continuing to stare at the human. It wouldn't be long until the gift would take effect.

Leon then suddenly felt a tingling sensation near the seat of his pants. The feeling continued, until he felt a pressure build up on his lower back. The pressure continued to build until there was the sound of his pants ripping, letting a gray furred tail tear through. Leon was shocked to see this. Then the tingling sensation slowly spread down his legs. underneath his clothes, Grey fur was slowly covering and spreading down his legs.

As the changes continued down his legs, Leon undid his jeans and tugged them down. He saw the fur continuing at its rate, covering his skin further down his legs towards his feet. As the fur reached his knees, the leg area it already covered became more muscular, the fur then continued to spread down.

As the fur spread to his feet, Leon took off his shoes and socks, just as the fur finished covering the last of his feet. then his feet began to change, his toes shrank and some of them fuse, leaving themselves three toed each, they then grew soft black pads, and his nails grew out into claws, Leon's Feet were paws now.

Leon touched his new paws; they were real. "What's happening to me?" He asked. Then the tingling sensation slowly spread up his body. Leon quickly removed his no sleeve shirt and looked at his body. The fur then slowly spread up his body, it soon covered his chest, stomach, and shoulders. The fur then began to spread down his arms.

As the fur reached Leon's elbows, his body shifts itself into a permanent all fours state. The fur then spreads over his hands, which become paws the exact same way his feet did. Then, as the transformation halted at his neck, Leon finally recognized his new form. "Of course, why didn't I see it sooner?" he said.

He then looked at the adult wolf. Leon said to her, "I'm becoming a grey wolf." The wolf answered, "That's right." Leon Exclaim, "WOW!! I can already understand you." The wolf nodded. The wolf then walked over to Leon and showed him how to sit correctly as a canine. Once Leon was sitting like a canine, he felt more comfortable. "Thank you" he said to the adult wolf, which happily smiled and replied, "My name is Luna, happy birthday Leon."

Leon was surprised by Luna's words and nervously said, "wait a minute, how did you know my name as well as the fact that today is my birthday?" Luna, understanding Leon's surprise, was happy to provide an explanation. "I've known about you since you first arrived at the orphanage." She said.

Though he was still surprised, he decided to hear her out. Luna continued, "three months ago, my mate and pup were both…" she sighed, "…shot and killed by human hunters. Leaving me all alone to wander the forest."

Before she continued explaining, the transformation completes itself with Leon's head, his ears became slightly bigger, pointed, and covered in grey fur, His nose turned wet and black, his teeth grew out and sharpened a little, and his face stretched out into a muzzle. His body then shrank till he was half Luna's size, thus completing his transformation. Leon was now a young grey wolf.

Luna then continued, "I then found the orphanage, & you. One look at your wolf pendant, and I could tell how much you loved my kind, and after watching you over the last three months, I felt I could make a wonderful mother for you. So I transformed you into a wolf using some animal magic, hoping to adopt you as my pup."

Leon understood every word, and his tail was wagging, he then said, "you've given me the greatest gift I've ever been given. How could I ever say no to you, but…?" Leon then looked at the discarded pendant and no sleeve. Luna realized what he was looking at, and figured he had an emotional attachment to the two items.

So, she used some animal magic on the no sleeve. Leon then watched in amazement as the no sleeve put itself back on him, and changed itself to fit him perfectly and comfortably, Luna then placed the pendant back around his neck and used some more animal magic on the string, causing it to shorten until in fitted him like a collar.

Leon's eyes lit up, his tail started wagging like crazy, he looked at Luna and then gave her a loving, gentle nuzzle before saying, "Thank you so much, this means a lot."

Luna smiled and started walking deeper into the forest; Leon quickly caught up to and joined her. "Happy Birthday, Leon" said Luna. Leon Replied, "Thank you so much, Momma"

And from that day on, Leon's life was much better than before.
