“I still don’t get it,” Ari said, and pulled his legs into a crisscross position. He and Lynn were sitting on the floor of Walker’s apartment. Reed was asleep, his head in Lynn’s lap. Walker had said something about a snack, and they could hear him rummaging in the kitchen. “So you can’t do anything with your powers UNLESS you change? Or until? Is it until or unless? I don’t remember.”
Lynn giggled. “I have no clue. But yeah, I can’t use my powers at all unless I turn myself into a rabbit. It’s such a mess, too. I mean, suddenly I’m hairy. Everywhere. It sucks! But I can do more than I used to be able to. Like, I can control currents way better. Bigger ones, too. And you wouldn’t know it if I walked by down the street normally!”
“Yes I would! I can still tell you’re a hunter.” Ari reached out and traced the air next to Lynn, his eyes moving as if he saw something invisible. Which was basically the case, she remembered. “You’ve got this really cool downdraft thing that happens on the air around you. I saw it on Alex and Val too. It got, like, super freaking strong when they were transformed. Most everyone else just has these little whirls.”
“Really?” Lynn looked surprised. “So I can’t sneak up on people when I’m not transformed? Do you think that other hunters can tell I’m one of them like you can?”
“Hmm. I don’t know! Maybe we should go find Peter and ask him!” Ari said. He put his hands on his knees, but didn’t stand yet. “Ooh, maybe we can sneak up on him!”
Lynn glanced down at Reed, but he looked as if he’d sleep for a good while longer. She turned back to Ari with a big grin. “Let’s do it! And we should totally stop for some frozen yogurt on the way!”
