Alek sensed the inevitable showdown in the back of his store getting closer and his anxiety grew. Maybe if he could deal with this himself, then the menacing man with the axe could leave and they could get back to their normal lives. Alek was never a fighter, but his ability to turn into animals and some mythical creatures made it something that would give him the upper hand in this situation. Alek thought for a second before turning into a bat and almost instantly detecting the thief. He flew over to him until he was flying around his head and he turned into a large snake, coiling around him. If he can manage to hold him until he can think of what to do next, he may just be able to deal with this himself.
