Scorpio had been walking home from work, when aliens began abducting people, and things began blowing up, other people seemingly trying to fight back. His mouth thinned into an annoyed scowl that only those of hotheaded descent could create. [i]Feck! I won't get home till late and mum and Valerica will be worried. Ah well,[/i] He gave an internal shrug. [I]What am I supposed to do when ordinary folks might get hurt?[/i] He ducked into an alleyway and shifted, everything that had been on him transfering into the earth, an odd, but useful connection he had with the earth.

He leapt out of the alleyway in the form of a blonde lion, black King Cobra patterns in his fur. He gave a ferocious roar and started to run towards the place where all the chaos was centered.
