Ruhe realized that while she was talking to Chloe, she had lost all track of time. A gangly 5th year, a prefect as his badge said, leaned into the compartment. "Oi! You might want to be changing into your robes now. We'll be arrivin' shortly." He froze and stared at Ruhe. "Wot's the matter with you?" Ruhe felt her hair and eyes changing color rapidly. Her head began to ache and she knew what would come next. *Why now?* She groaned in her thoughts. She bent over and moaned.

"Hey, got your self a staring problem have you?" Chloe said in a cold tone while glaring at him then turning to see exactly why he was staring at Ruhe.

Ruhe felt her skin burn as it the change came on. "NO!" She yelled as she tried to fight it, but there was no way to prevent it. Her skin burned as it changed wildly through every color of the rainbow and then suddenly halted at her regular paleness. But it wasn't over yet. Her hair gave off the smell of cedar wood burning as it, too changed wildly through the spectrum. Ruhe felt her eyes warp as they morphed. Then, as suddenly as it started, it ended. Ruhe fumbled in her pack and grabbed her mirror. It was as bad as last time. Her hair was rainbow streaks of every color. One eye was purple, the other grey. The fifth year prefect was still staring. "Go... away..." Ruhe's voice trembled as she fought not to lunge at him and crush him as easily as stepping on an ant.

As the prefect still stood there, Chloe rolled her eyes and decided that she'd have to show him out. She stood and moved towards him with her Slytherin agrogance and coldness. She walked over to him placing her arms on his shoulders and gave him a slight shove causing him to knock into the opposite wall. "She said go away!" She said glaring at "Might want to get that staring problem fixed!" She called after him as he made his way down the corridor informing others. She walked back into the compartment closing the door. "Are you okay?" She asked

Ruhe trembled a bit, and her voice shook. "Yeah, I suppose. All part of shapeshifting." She gave a tight smile. "Although in that I am unique. These attacks, like the one you just saw, are the equivalent of seizures. Uncontrollable. I'm the only one alive that has them." Ruhe blew a gust of air up her face that blew her rainbow bangs out of her face. "I hope this wears off by the first day of classes. Though I doubt it will." She sighed. "See my point? Dark follows light. I meet you- light. Public morph- dark."

"Ah, okay. Classes with rainbow hair might bring some unwanted attention." She said with a little laugh. "So . . . um do those attacks happen often?"
((Yeah, me too. Talk to ya later.) - Kla)

Ruhe bowed her head, chagrined. "No, it's just something that came along with puberty for me. They happen once in a while. Usually at the worst moments, like now. Goddess, can't that kid there take a hint???" Ruhe smiled jovially at Chloe. "You can be pretty intimidating when you want to be. Well, then we better change into our robes now. Too bad about the hair, but oh well. C'est la vie."

"Yeah I can be." She said with a proud tone. "Yeah, I'd hate to imagine what would happen if we showed up there dressed like this." She said gesturing to their clothes. "I probably have a dentention waiting for me anyway once that prefect opens his mouth." She stood up and rummaged through her trunk for her robes.

Ruhe shrugged. "Meh. I wear jeans and a relatively dressy shirt, nothin ever happens to me. But this hair... There, I'm screwed." She reached over her cat and grabbed her pack. While pulling out her robes, she stirred something crimson red and something silvery intertwined together. She reached to grab them quickly but was too late. Ruhe knew Chloe had seen them.

As Chloe finished pulling on her robes she glanced in Ruhes direction when something red and silver caught her eye. She saw Ruhe try and hide it and her lips instantly curled into a devious smile. "Whats that?" She said leaning up against the wall with her arms across her chest.

Ruhe stammered and felt a blush rise in her cheeks. She knew it was purple. "Ah.. um.. err... Can you keep a secret? This is kind of... personal." She thought that if Chloe said yes, then she could trust her. Ruhe had already told her so much. What was one more thing?
((btw what's your real name?- Kristi)))

Chloe thought for a second figuring that if she wanted to know she'd have to say yes. "Yeah, I can keep a secret." She said adding a reassuring smile.

Ruhe sighed. It sure felt good to get all theses secrets off your chest. "Well, my mother... through the generations of her family, passed down two articles of clothing to every child born with the gift of Shapeshifting." As she spoke, she tugged on her robes and sat with the red and silver cloths on her lap. "Every Shifter in my mothers family, for the last 4 generations, has been female. So these two robes I have here have been passed for the past 150 years." Absently, as she spoke, Ruhe stroked the robes. "The silver one, as you might be able to tell, is an Invisibility Cloak. We use it when our Shifting is out of control and the effects are... less desirable than what happened to me today." Ruhe shuddered as she thought of the red cloak now sitting in her lap.

Chloe resumed her seat after she finished putting on her robes. She listened to Ruhe with great interest in the items. As she heard about the silver robe she thought 'That could have spared me a lot of dentention last year.'. He noticed that Ruhe shuddered and stopped not mentioning the red one. "Whats wrong with the red one?" She asked.
((Okay :]))
