(General POV)

The Ijiraq lunged at Agri attempting to grab him. Agri, just barely sidestepping the being, crosses his arms in front of him and summons a cluster of roots in the ground to grab the shape shifter.

Lilia, seeing the her son had a good grip on the being, took time to analyze the situation. "We can't kill it until we know where the people are being held can we," she asked her husband.

Kazuki shook his head. "What Ijiraq's usually do is kidnap people, hide them, and abandon people in a place it determined was a good hiding spot. The Ijiraq's death won't effect the people and since they don't talk it will be pointless to keep it alive and let it continue to run amok."

Lilia nodded her head in agreement. She was preparing to strike the creature when she noticed it growing in mass and height. "Agri get back there's no telling what it's going to do," she said, her voice gaining an edge to it. The average elf may not panic about much but a mothers still a mother.

Releasing his control over the roots Agri jumped back next to his parents. The three of them watched as the somewhat human looking being grew and shifted into an elephant.

Trumpeting, just like a real elephant, he charged at the Tribulbs. Thinking on their feet the Tribulbs jumped out of the way and hid in a tree in order to come up with a plan.

Seeing the being confused about their whereabouts Kazuki proceed to go with the plan he just made in his head.

He looked towards his wife. "The soils coming off it can you give us some mud."

She nodded in agreement and, just like with the soil, she created a mud tornado around it's whole body that will not only enable them to see the shape shifter completely, but also allows Kazuki and Agri an opportunity to strike(given it can't see them at the moment).

Jumping down from the tree Kazuki and Agri prepared to strike. Creating soil, and morphing it into clay, Kazuki extended his arm and wrapped the material around his arm in the shape of a blade. Agri, somewhat mimicking his father, extended his arm and summoned bark from around him and created a blade around his arm.

As Lilia's mud tornado faded, giving them a perfect view of the being, they both charged at it. The Ijiraq was helpless to defend itself as Kazuki sliced his back right leg and Agri sliced his front right leg severely injuring it.

Trumpeting in pain the Ijiraq, having no stable balance, started to fall in it's side. As it went down it shifted back into its previous human like form.

All the Tribulbs surrounded the being as it grunted in pain on the ground.

Agri raised an eyebrow at it, "Why doesn't it just disappear like normal." Agri, thinking that the fight was over, dropped his control of the bark.

Lilia glanced briefly at her son, "Most shape shifter species are prideful and rarely run away from a fight regardless if they have the advantage or not." Even as they spoke the shape shifter was attempting to get up regardless of it's injuries.

Kazuki moved to stand above the shape shifter. "Better get this over with so we can find those people." Raising his blade arm he prepared to strike. The Ijiraq seemed to accept his fate as it stopped trying to get up.

Just as Kazuki thrust his arm down, attempting to give the finishing blow to the being, the Ijiraq snapped up and ran past Kazuki, who was completely shocked by this development, towards Agri.

"Agri," Lilia yelled out. Summoning her powers she also created a blade out of clay and ran to intercept the being.

Seeing the being moving toward him at an incredible speed, and seemingly ignoring it's injuries, Agri prepared to take out the being, until something jumped in front of him.

Agri looked to see a sandy colored wolf in front of him growling at the Ijiraq. The wolf was crouched in front of Agri protectively.

Dashing toward it, the wolf bit into the Ijiraq's shoulder causing it to grunt loudly in pain. The shape shifter rolled around struggling to get the wolf off him.

Seeing her chance Lilia ran forth and thrust her blade arm into the being head, killing it instantly.

As soon as the Ijiraq stopped struggling the wolf released his hold on it. Everything was silent as everyone tried to make sense of what was happening at the moment. The Tribulbs all stared at the wolf while the wolf stared only at Agri.

As Agri made a move to approach a loud howl emitted from some where in the forest. The wolves hears snapped up and he quickly went in the direction of the howl.

Agri just stared in the direction the wolf went before turning back to his parents.

"Well that was weir…"

"Agri," came a familiar voice from behind him.
