Mimic woke up early that morning long before the zoo opened the sun wasn't even up yet. He padded out of his giant den in the center of the zoo and looked around. He stretched and shifted into a leopard than leaped from the ledge down onto the ground where he shifted once more into a mouse and began to crawl around exploring all the tiny crevices. He had yet to learn all of his territory yet having just been brought to the zoo a moon ago. After a half hour he shifted back to his normal form and let out a loud meow. He hated waking up early it was always so boring until his owner or one of the other zoo staff members let them out for the day.
Finally after what felt like hours the sun began to rise. Hearing the call of a bird he shifted into a mouse once more to draw it in. It worked the bird feeder set inside his den to draw birds in for him brought in a good size robin. He ran around the seeds at the base pretending to nibble at them. If a mouse was brave enough to nibble the seeds on the ground than it must be safe for a bird right? It flew through his bars and landed on the bird feeder. As soon as it did he leaped and shifted mid air. The bird let out a cry but before it could flap it's wings and escape he grabbed it by one of it's legs and pulled it down to the ground with him. He pinned it under his paw and smiled than copying it's voice he cheeped bird language, "you picked the wrong place to eat breakfast." He smiled at the terrified look on the birds face than killed it. He carried it to the door and sat down and began to eat it.
When the twoleg came and unlocked his door he laughed and told him well done on his hunt before filling his bowl with fresh food and water. He shifted into a lion and rubbed against the twoleg purring softly. The twoleg laughed and scratched his ears. "Go on get, I know you like to welcome the first guest and scare them you better hurry the gates will be opening in thirty minutes." Mimic purred and licked the twoleg than shifted into a monkey and swung outside of his cage climbed it and began jumping from building to building from time to time shifting into a bird when the space was to far to jump.
When he got to the gates he landed in a bird feeder they set up there for him. They also set up a few other different things encase he chose a different form to great them. Time went by and finally the gates opened, this was Mimic's favorite time of day. He waited until the first dozen guest walked in before flying from the feeder and shifting into a tiger and landing in the midst of them and letting out a roar to scare them. Some twolegs who had heard about him laughed while others screamed. He quickly shifted back into his normal form and padded up to one of the twolegs laughing and rubbed against him. As he did so he shifted into a monkey and climbed up and began playing with her hair causing her to laugh even more.
