Matthias
Matthias' ears twitched around, surveying the scene. He wore a white t-shirt and a pair of old, light jeans. He turned his head to Crystal, beside him.
"With the headmaster's well-known temper, I'm sure they'll find a way to control themselves. But I've heard the blood they serve in the cafeteria is no substitute." He thought about the vicious students at the academy. "Who came up with this stupid idea, anyway?"
Matthias turned his head and noticed the wolf-girl sitting too-close for comfort. Of course, too close was within sight for the too clashing entities. The hair on the back of his neck stood up straight and his back struggled to arch but he held back. It was too early in the year to start any problems. There would be enough already with the exchange.
"I hope the humans teach Jules how to fetch. Give her a purpose here for once." He laughed a little. His glare stayed fixed on the dog-girl. He hoped she'd notice and take the hint that he wasn't to be messed with by her kind.

Agnes

Agnes held onto her bag tightly. She stared out the windows from the back of the bus. The students at the new school were different, haunting. Her nerves drove her to plan in her head ways to hide in the bus, sleep in the bus yard over night and make it over the border on foot by the end of the week. The bus-driver called at her from the front to get off, her plans were foiled. She pulled herself off the seat carefully and reluctantly tripped down the stairs of the bus.
Her nerves had not subsided when she saw a group of particularly pale students eyeing her like... well, like a next meal. Her arms crossed anxiously and she picked at her arm. She checked the time on her phone, classes weren't starting for another few minutes. She zipped open her bag and fished out her lighter, sat on the grass and began flicking the flame on and off. She pulled out her pack of cigarettes and sat them next to her, trying to decide whether it was worth having another to get her through the school day.

I could hear every word. I got up and walked past him. I paused and smirked before giving out a very realistic "WOOF!" and continuing on. I pulled my bag over my shoulder and moved to the other side of the walkway, sprawled out in full view. Trees would block all this glorious sun, and I wanted to keep an eye on the vamps.

I was a firm believer in "Humans are friends, not food." I always went after deer, or anything meaty, but never humans. Yeah, one had thrown me to the curb, but another picked me up and raised me. I had nothing against humans, and (as I was certain Cat-Boy would say) a dog is a man's best friend.

I snorted to myself and crossed one leg over the other, hands folded under my head. I snickered. I was a freshman, and he was an upperclassman, and yet our rivalry was one that would most likely go down in the records. Wearing simple black bootcut jeans and a pale blue tee with a slight v-neck, I felt quite relaxed in the grass.

I was at no risk of morphing anytime soon- full moon was two weeks away, unless there was some freak change. And even if there was, I was taking my silver pills with every meal, and had a silver thread in my hemp bracelet just in case I ran out. Small doses kept me under control- larger ones would kill me. But I knew how to handle myself, and I really was going to be just fine.

So long as Cat-Boy didn't make me want to murder every living person in this state.

My mind was freaking out, I just looked calm.Who came up with this stupid idea? I Thought standing up from the grass. I dusted off my pants and walked through the clear double doors.

I looked at my reflection, This uniform is boring, I thought. fixing my hair. I went back to my locker and grabbed some old shirts from my bag,my small sewing kit and some scissors. I looked at the clock, I had ten minuets, I went back to the bathroom, and began cutting the clothes, I stitched the patches in, and in no time it looked 210% better.

I shoved the stuff back in my locker, walking down the dark hall.

Matthias

The wolf-girls bark sent a shiver through Matthias' spine and he could feel his insides jump. He hissed under his breath and rolled his eyes at Crystal. That mutt is so annoying he thought. He was grateful Crystal wasn't one of those preachy girls who wouldn't share a good share of gossip and bad laundry. How else can a feline entertain himself? He stretched his legs and his back, letting the hot sun rain down on his light skin. His toes curled and he sighed.

"School starts in a minute or so. We should head in," he said, checking his watch "It's such a beautiful day. Maybe everything will work out and the vampires will become vegetarians or something." He held out his hands and lifted Crystal off the grass, and proceeded to enter the building.

His nose was immediately clogged with the smell of human. It obnoxiously took up the atmosphere. He looked around the school and made a count of the humans in his head. He changed into his white cat form and let his unclipped claws clack against the tile on his way to the room. Swishing his tail, he headed towards his homeroom in the shape-shifting teacher's room.

I got up, patting the warm ground affectionately. It wasn't often the weather was this good. I resisted the urge to kick CB (Cat-Boy) who was now a cat. As the headmaster called for us to behave as normal, I shrugged and fell forward. No one moved to catch me, and it wasn't needed. I landed lightly on the ground, a gray-and-turquoise wolf. I shook my head and scratched my side quickly before swishing my tail and loping off to History.

I yawned and leapt up into my seat, curling my tail around my paws. I shifted back, running a hand over my face. I ached a little from last night's hunt, but it was nothing a good session in Defense and Combat wouldn't fix. I scratched my ear again, glad no one was here to tell me I had ticks or fleas.

Realizing I was still in wolf-sitting form, I slipped my legs down and slung my arms over my desk, getting out my notebook. I actually liked History- it helped me understand how I was more adapted than my ancestors, and how I could keep myself under control. The one thing I didn't like were the pack references- The Moon Pack, or the Wood Pack. I wasn't a part of any pack- I was Juliya Dove, lone wolf.

Of course, if anyone called me Juliya, I'd kill them.

Agnes
Agnes fiddled with her information sheet. Her body temperature had dropped and her mouth was drying from gaping. She watched the tail of a wolf disappear into the crowd of people. She blinked in amazement. Terror raced through he veins.
"Did...did you just see that?" she asked no one in particular. Remembering that she knew none of the people around her, she felt far more intimidated. She tripped around the halls. The crowds were thinning quickly. She turned to the nearest person she didn't recognize, a student.
"Um. Can you help me or something? I'm part of the exchange and, well, I have no idea where to go." she tried to manage a smile but she just looked angry and sarcastic. It had been a long time since she sparked a conversation, luckily it didn't make her feel any more awkward since it was a stranger. She made a silent prayer that the stranger didn't try to stretch the conversation any further than directions.

Balthazar:

I gave the girl a smile. Leaning in a little closer I took in her wonderful scent. I leaned closer so I could peer over her paper, our heads almost touching. After checking her class I pointed down the hall behind her "Down there, take a right. Third door on the left." With that I inhaled her scent deeply and smiled "I have that class right now, too."

Crystal

I walked passed where a kid was getting a drink from a fountain. Maybe he was just trying to be funny, or maybe he just wanted to get me mad, but he turned the spout so that water came flying in my direction. I moved out of the way just in time, otherwise it would have been fish-time for me.

"Afraid of a little water?" he asked.

"You....have....no..idea," I said. I glared at him, and made a promise to myself never to talk to another human again. Then, something wet touched my back. One of the other kids had splashed water on my shirt. I ran towards the girls bathroom, knowing I had seconds before the water soaked through my shirt, before I turned into a mermaid.

I flopped down on the floor of the bathroom just as my blue and green tail appeared where my legs had been.

"First day, nice Crystal," Jules scoffed.

"You know what, this time, it wasn't my fault. Stupid boys," I pulled my fin up to my chest. I wiggled over to where I had dropped my bag on the floor, and took out my hairdryer. Using it, I dried myself off. As soon as the last drop vanished, I turned back into a human.

"You are so lucky it was me in here and not one of the exchange students," Jules informed me.

I shoved my hairdryer in my bag, "I know that,"
Love is beautiful, but what would love be without life?

"Daddy," I woke up screaming.I had sweat running down all over my body,"oh my god,why is this happening again?"I asked myself.I hurried up and got in the shower because I just realized it was monday..today was the exchange so I had to make the shower pretty snappy.
When I got dressed my stomach was hurting to much to even think about eating food so I got in my car and drove off to school,When I got there my heart started pounding so I ran to my locker to get all my stuff out for the exchange then sat in a little corner hoping to be invisible to everyone that passed.
Watching as everyone passed I seen a person who looked like a cat and a human all at once so I was sorta freaking out then i decided to get my sketching pad out and draw him.It looked wonderful when I was done,Then I heard a teacher call all the students up so i jumped up and walked over to where the teacher was standing.



Sorry if this wasnt good...if it isnt you can tell me and ill just re write it lol

I sighed as Crystal frantically got to her feet. "You really should ask a teacher if there's a way you can stop it," I said, handing her a paper towel. "Or at least, like, wear a rain coat."

Crystal chuckled. "I know, but I don't want to risk anything."

I shrugged. "Suit yourself. And tell Ca- Matthias that if he ever wants me to stop barking every time I pass him, he could try not being so mean." With that, I shifted and loped back to History.

I slunk into my chair and shifted back, doodling on the first page of my notebook. A wolf, a moon... the pictures gradually became less and less sensical, and I was about to fall asleep, but the bell rang, snapping my senses back. I slipped my pencil into the rings and shut my notebook, waiting for Mr. Harrison to come in.

I glanced at the window. He wasn't there. I shrugged. Maybe he was having trouble getting to school- it was sunny, after all.

I hoped he was alright.

Agnes
Agnes lost her breath for a moment. Her blood felt colder the closer her got. She tried to keep unflinching eye contact to stay dominant over the situation. She searched her brain for sass.
"Arms length, buddy." She pursed her lips and crossed her arms, but didn't step back. She folded her paper and turned towards the class she was assigned. Her arms fell straight against her torso, her body language was ridged and tight. She kept her head forward, hoping that she looked 10x more comfortable than she actually was. She kept her gaze straight ahead, forcing herself not to glance back at the boy. She still felt cold from being so close, her teeth sunk into her bottom lip. He gave her a nervous, creepy feeling, like being so close to him was dangerous to her in more ways than one.

Matthias
Matthias crossed her arms. His pencil sat at the far side of his desk. He hated his ancient language class, he cursed his paws for guiding him there. The sun pouring through the windows had made him drowsy. It's too early for this dull subject. He yawned, and covered his mouth with his hand. The teacher's voice droned. His head fell onto his desk and he started to fall asleep.
Only half realizing it, he morphed into a cat and curled up on the edge of his desk. His eyes were half open. He knocked his books off his desk with his tail.
God, this is so boring.
He hopped off the desk and walked through the aisle of desks, his long claws clacking against the tiles. He made sure to rub his tail against the ankles of each person in the class, hoping to freak out a human or two.

~Rose~

I saw expressions from others, the "different" kids seemed to be freaking them out. But, I strangely thought it was cool. I wanted to know more, but how? I thought, watching people walk by.My thought continued, I can't just walk up to a random stranger, and say "Hey, i'm rose, which monster are you?" that would be rude, and i definitely didn't want to set anyone off, especially here.

I saw a girl get splashed with water, then rush to the bathroom. In my nature, my first instinct, was to go help, so I ran into the bathroom, she, and another girl was standing there, blow-drying her shirt. Their faces weren't familiar.

"Need any help?" I asked, trying not to sound nervous.

Walking down the halls, I watched as people passed me. Suddenly, I saw something white dart though the crowd. Watching a little more closely I noticed that it was a white cat. I was amazed, why on earth was there a cat in the hall? Next thing I know, a boy is standing in place of the white cat.

Shaking my head, I noticed that the halls were starting to clear. Sighing, I reached into my pocket and pulled out the schedule that they gave me. I had no idea where my first period was, deciding that I was not going to find it standing here, I sauntered over to the nearest classroom. Right as I got in the door, the teacher looked up.

“Can I help you?” she said with a smile.

“Umm..yeah, I was wondering if you could tell my where this class was?” I said hesitantly.

Smiling she walked over to me. As she soon as she got there, I handed her my schedule. Glancing at she then turned around to the class and said, “I need a volunteer to show this young lady to her class, who wants to go?”, but before anyone could even raise their hand, she questioned “How about you?” as she pointed at someone.

*This can be any monster...*
"Show me a "first rate laugh"."

I sighed. "Yeah, yeah, sure," I mumbled. I had been just coming out to grab my pills from my locker but... oh well. I sprinted over and opened my locker swiftly. I grabbed the black jar and shoved it in my pocket. Human girl didn't need to know that I took silver pills. Unfortunately, she spotted them as I maneuvered us back to history. She pointed to my pocket.

"What'd you take them for?"

Think fast, Dove. "Lycanthropy." I hoped she didn't know what that was. Or that if she did, she thought it was a joke. I couldn't read her reaction, though. I coughed to cover a feral growl that escaped as I passed CB, and rolled my head.

Do not shift. DO. NOT. SHIFT.

I smiled briefly at Crystal, who looked better. I pointed at her forearm, and she dried it quickly. There had still been a patch of scales.

Keeping us secret was going to be tricky, I'd grant the situation that.
