Oli was confused but didn't have the chance to reply. Rathe was already pounding on Oli's back again, testing the durability of the strange metal. "What's so special about this? So what if it's black? It looks weak!"
"Shut up!" Bradok laughed and slapped Rathe's back, toppling him over without mercy. "Why don't we ask him to show his full gorilla form then? Then we'll see how little you think of him."
"Yeah! Do it! I need to see this for myself," barked Rathe, getting back to his feet.
Nodding slowly, Oli took in a deep breath. He closed his eyes and centered all of his thoughts on his bloodline. He followed his instincts, searching his bloodline in a similar fashion to how he trained his human transformation. Before long, Oli's body began to grow. His dark purple scales faded into his skin and his wings were slowly retracted into his body. The whole process took Oli about five minutes but the results were exactly what he wanted.
