Like a burst of energy, Genu shifted into a monstrous black bear and with one strike, the cage was destroyed. He broke his brother’s chain like it was ceramic. Olin shifted into a lion and they both rampaged out of the palace.
As soon as they were in a clearing, Genu shifted into a falcon and Olin into a hawk. They flew into the heart of the forest where the thick canopies of oak and acacia sheltered them from their bewildered pursuers.
“What has happened to me?” asked Genu in his human form.
“It is the witchcraft of the high priest, brother,” Olin said. “I took the Alexandrite because I know that was the only way to drive you out of the palace. Its mysterious powers enhanced the spell on you,” he continued.
“We have to seek vengeance,” Genu said.

“Vengeance is mine, I shall repay.” he he he…just wondering if this is a PG or GP story. Because if it is classified as PG then the carapace of revenge should be eliminated…well you’re the author…just being candid about what came to my mind first.
It is a titillating and fascinating story. This is really something you have to turn into a book, Z. I mean, not as flash fiction but as a whole novel.
And I’m not being sweet. I believe in it potential as a novel.
Way to go!
