"To kill innocent people to make a political statement is like shooting a dove to say hunting is wrong."
---
In a world where using magic is a death wish, 5 boys work together to stop a string of killings that are a little too close to home.
SHIPS:
...
The rest of the boys arrive in no particular order. Each choosing to relax as opposed to starting a conversation. When everyone has arrived and is sitting comfortably, Beomgyu speaks up first.
"I'm sorry for what happened yesterday," he says while looking down.
The four boys turn their attention to the boy with the sweater paws.
"It's okay Beomgyu," Soobin responds, "We weren't listening to you yesterday. You had every reason to get mad,"
The rest of the boys nod in agreement. Beomgyu looks up at the boys.
"Really? Thanks," Beomgyu smiles.
"I've decided that since you showed your magic, I might as well you mine," Yeonjun states, grabbing the attention.
"You have magic too?" Taehyun states incredulously.
"Yeah, let me show you," Yeonjun grins and stands up.
He stands still for a moment then he quickly changes to his cat form.

Kai's eyes grow wide at the thought of Yeonjun being a shifter. Yeonjun walks up to Soobn and sits on his lap. Soobin rubs the cat hesitantly until Yeonjun purrs happily.
"Yeonjun, why is there pink in your fur?" Taehyun asks after noticing the pink patch on the cat's front.
Yeonjun perks up and looks at Taehyun.
"It's because of my hair color. If I was to pick a lighter colored cat, all my fur would be pink," Yeonjun states.
The boys stare at the cat in surprise.
"Don't cats meow!?" Beomgyu exclaims.
"Oh, I have two powers. I am a shifter and an aligist. It's quite convenient," Yeonjun explains.
"What's an aligist?" Taehyun asks, scratching his head.
"It basically means I can speak all languages, including animal ones," Yeonjun replies with a grin.
"That's pretty cool. It makes me seem powerless though," Kai chuckles.
"What's your power?" Yeonjun asks after changing back to his human form.
"I can read minds, but it's kind of useless for me," Kai shrugs.
"What do you mean? Reading minds sounds great! You can know exactly what your crush thinks of you," Soobin questions.
"It's for a couple of reasons. First, I live alone. Second, I'm pretty close to the people I like. Third, I don't read the minds of my friends," Kai responds with a sigh.
"People?" Yeonjun asks with a raised eyebrow.
"Y-yeah, I have a crush on two people," Kai mumbles.
