"Hmm skills are wait what?!"
Why is she yelling. I have no idea. Currently right in front of me is a half human half deer hybrid. I don't know why but I know what both of those things are and images of both those thing are showing up. I have to ask who put this information inside of me . . . ugh us. For some reason other wants me to talk like we are a collective which isn't all wrong but the less that Ellis knows is the better.
I eventually got it to agree but it said once we get strong enough we should do it because it is "cool". Which I accepted because well it seems fun but I won't tell it that. Anyway I was asking about skills because well as soon as I put a foot on the ground a voice and some reddish text showed up and told me I unlocked a racial skill.
I know about the racial part but for some reason the information in . . . us tells us nothing about skills also other told me it heard the voice before and said it could hear and see the voice. I found that weird because I didn't hear it before when it supposedly talked before. The racial skill I unlocked was [Devour] which is the thing I think I used on the star but I have to wonder why it showed up now.
Anyway because that I wanted to find out about skills and lucky me because I found just what I need a creature that can respond. I find it weird that I found one flowing down a river but maybe it is a normal thing for creatures in this world. I then proceeded to pull out a barely clothed girl with what something tells me is deer legs and now we are here.
"Creature Ellis why are you yelling? Do you wish to not answer my question and die?" That is a bluff on my part I won't because I need her answers. Hey how do we talk? I don't think we have a mouth or much of anything. I have no idea I just wanted to talk and I did but it is weirdly convenient.
"N-no I-I just I was c-confused."
"Okay well go on and answer the question."
"W-well skills are something the System gives us to help live sometimes they make things easy others may give you abilities like a magic skill gives you access to the magic element and will sometimes give you some spells." Her voice sounded excited I wonder why.
"Okay so how do I see them."
"Just think or say status." Straight forward I like it.
Status. Wait wait don't . . . do it . . . now. Wow that's a lot of words.

(System Note; I hate you I haven't had to do this much work in a hundred millenniums P.S. I mean both of you)
For some reason when the big black screen appeared in front of my face all my questions about the System were answered. Everything made sense to me all but one thing. Class. It was weird because you couldn't just pick a class in fact it was the opposite the class chose you. You did something special like think about something a certain way or did something a certain way bam you got a class and you can't even decline. Of course that didn't mean everyone got a different class it just some are more common then other and just because you get a class no one has ever heard of didn't mean it was powerful. I don't understand it.
That's a lot to take in I think. Yes well um sorry for thinking status Oh it disappeared. It is fine it was going to happen sooner or later I will go back to speaking to Ellis. Um yea well um hey do you think we should come up with a name for us. Yes it would be nice.
"Creature Ellis I am done with my questions I shall take my leave." I turned to take my leave and then I heard a groan, a yelp, and then a fall. I continued to walk until I heard Ellis voice, "W-wait I-I can I come with you I'll do whatever you ask I-I just want to not be alone and I want help." The desperation was clear but I have to wonder why she would turn to me for help whatever I don't care but I will take her offer because I might need her.
"Creature Ellis you may follow but there are rules one you must always answer my questions two no complaints (you asked to follow along) three you may not question me that is all."
"Okay I can that I think but can we sit for a bit I can't stand or walk and my arm is broken."
"Very well we will leave very soon so be ready if not I will leave you behind."
"Um okay."
I turned around and looked at her again. I had to hold back a laugh when I saw her. I knew she fell but I didn't expect her to be in that position. Honestly I have no idea how she talked in that position. Her face was completely on the dirt laying sideways with her butt up in the air and with the way her legs were shaped most of it was also up in the air. It was probably a uncomfortable position to be in but it seemed like she didn't care.
Though I couldn't care less if she was uncomfortable I felt some weird feeling bubble up in me when I thought about how uncomfortable she was. I can't quite tell what it is but it felt a little nice. Feeling aside I tried to do something I wanted to do as soon as I finished reading my . . . our skills.
I admit I don't quite like that I have the form of a woman. I know I have the voice of one but I think it just because I have the form of one. So I am going to try to use [Shapeshifter]. As long as I think I am something besides a woman I should be fine I hope but something bothers me If that's how the skill works why was a woman in the first place whatever.
I should start small to prove that it works. I have claws. I felt a prickly feeling in my hand for a second and then I looked at them. Normally where I had featureless normal fingers I had mostly featureless normal fingers that ended in points. I couldn't tell if they were sharp but what mattered most was that it worked though it wasn't quite what I imagined.
Okay time to not be a woman anymore wait if not a woman then what should I be. A man seems like trouble and I don't want to be a in-between like other. I could make something up but I have nothing. Fine I can held being a woman a little longer . . . I think. Am I even a woman? I just have the shape of one . . . hmm whatever.
Well if I am not changing from a woman maybe I can add something to myself. I'll keep the claws and add hair because why not. I have waist length hair. My head begins to feel itchy for a second then I feel it move lower and lower both in front of me and behind me. Soon the feeling leaves and I take a look at my new hair.
It flows down to my waist in the back and rolls off my chest like it trying to hide it in my front Like all of my body it is black but it has no star lights and for some reason it has an ethereal purple on the ends. I wonder why.
"Um I-I am ready to leave now (though my arm is still broken.)"
I look up to see Ellis sitting up looking around nervously. I wonder when she moved. Anyway she is ready to leave and so am I so I should probably say something.
"Very well I was just about to leave anyway." I turn and begin to walk in a random direction. Behind me I hear the footsteps of Ellis.
"Um can I say something."
"You need not my permission to say something as long as it is not a question"
"Your hair is very beautiful."
