Haku was confused. One moment he was in a room with two other girls. The next, he is now in the middle of a strange room full of random objects and contraptions. He rolled his wheels out the room to enter a large hall way with one side a wall and the other side with open windows to show the big school it's self."What.. is this place..." He rolled his wheels to window to see floors after floors of levels and many elevators scaling the walls. He was surprised to see this till he saw a giant dragon fly in front of him."A....Ah...." He clenched his heart and slowly wheeled back to the wall."O...Okay... Breath in...and out..." He slowly tried to calm him self down.

Nadia's eyes grew wide as the room she was in suddenly changed. "W-w-whaat happened...? Weren't Haku, poppy and I were in a dark creepy room..?" Nadia thought to herself. Seeing Haku roll to a window, Nadia went to him. "Haku.." She was going to call out to him when suddenly a big dragon appeared in front of them. Her eyes was already wide enough and sh could feel her heart beating loudly. Frightened as she is, she was the oldest among the three and decided that she had to make sure they were all alright. "Haku.. Calm down.. Come to me " Nadia said slowly at Haku and then glance around for poppy.

Has Haku tried to relax. He slowly coughed up a little blood, he tried to control him self has he reached for his medicine bag "Me...Med....Meds...." He could not reach it behind him and slowly kept coughing up blood has his face twisted in fear and his hand clenching his chest hard.

Nadia hurriedly got Haku his medicine and passed it over to him. "Poppy.. Stay close. I-I don't know what's going on but I feel that we should stick together. And no sudden movements.." She said, looking at the dragon and then at the other two. She rubbed Haku's back gently, in attempt to calm him down and held out her hand for Poppy to hold.

Haku reached for the water bottle he had and popped the pills straight into his mouth while downing the bottle. He tried to work fast so he stopped coughing up blood. Once he was done, he slowly stopped spewing out blood and looked at his surroundings. His face went into shock has he noticed the dragon in front of him."Nadia...Push my wheel chair please.... I can barely move my arms...."

"Okay.." Nadia said, taking Poppy's hand and placing it on her arm. "Stay close poppy" Nadia said and took hold of the wheelchair's handles. She looked at where they had came from at first and saw that it was a dead end. No choice but to move forward, I guess. Keeping her nerves calm, Nadia slowly went backwards an turned to the right, walking somewhat calmly so as not to alert the dragon.

Haku's hands where shaking has his eyes kept getting bigger has they got close to the dragon. He could feel the hairs on his body go up has his heart started to pound even more. Even with the medicine in his system, he could feel his body getting weaker and weaker due to the fear he was feeling. His breathing got heavier and heavier.

"Vixy dont go!"

"YEAH!"

"We will miss you sis..."

"How long you gonna be gone?"

"Are you going away for ever!?"

"Noooooo!"

It was when her ten younger brothers and sisters all started crying at once that Vixy stomped her foot. "OH WILL YOU GUYS SHUT UP AND LET ME SPEAK!"

"Vixy, you know better than to yell at them like that." Her mother scolded as she walked in with her father and four older brothers. She rolled her eyes and scratched her ear, "Sorry momma." She said with a bow. Her father shooed the little ones away until all the bigger ones were in her room together. There was a long silence before Vixy decided to speak up.

"Do I... really have to go? Id rather stay at my old school." She said, clutching at her lone purse she would bring with her. 'I dont see why I have to go alone."

"We already discussed this. The other school is having complaints about your behavior and you mother and I cant keep dealing with this-"

'So you just get rid of me!?"

"We have other children besides you. Despite how much you want to be our center of attention, it just cant happen how you want it. You've become a distraction and we cant have you here anymore" He said firmly. "You are going to that school. Then you'll be someone elses problem." He said angrily before leaving the room. Vixy sighed and turned away from her mother who reached out to her. "You know your father doesn't mean it like that swetie. We want whats best for the family."

"Thats the problem mom. You never what whats best for just me."

"You cant have it your way all the time."

"I have NEVER had it my way! All I wanted was for you guys to love me just as much as everyone else."

"Your father and I are only Vixen honey."

"Your right. And I am only a distraction." A small tear slipped free of Vixys closed eyes as she went to the wondow and hopped out. Her feet pounded on the grass beneath her as she ran towards the train station. This was going to be the worst school year of her life. Vixy knew that for sure now. Its not like anything would change... but at least her parents would get what they wanted. A break from their troublesome child. Meanwhile nothing would change for Vixy. Shed still be the freak, least loved child of the bunch, the girl who just wanted to be called 'important'...

But instead she was called a distraction.

Her eyes closed for what felt like only moments before the train she had gotten on called the name of the school she had to stop at. "Well, that was quick and easy. " A little too quick and too easy actually.... When she left and weaved out of the station, she was surprised to see the sheer size of the school in the distance. Running over to the entrance she looked surprised. Students and teachers were bustling and whispering something about humans in a portal. Her ears twitched as she overheard them.

"Humans...?" She stepped closer and listened more to the conversation. They were here at the school but no one knew where. Her intrest spiked as she thought more about it. She hadent seen a human before. Maybe she should go looking for them. With a mischievous smile, Vixy dashed off into the school grounds in search for those mysterious creatures, her tail wagging in excitement.

With a book in hand Lydia strolled carelessly down one of the many upper hallways of the school. She HAD been in the courtyard but the place had grown extremely bothersome as news of humans on campus spread like wildfire. The rumor didn’t interest her, so she had left for some peace, having retreated to one of the halls branching off of where the school’s dragon often flew.

This was her fourth year here, her senior year, and she knew the places people avoided. That was where she liked to go when she wanted to read, especially on busy days like today. In truth, one of those places is where she was now. The school tended to avoid the areas around what she referred to as ‘Dragon Way’, but for her it was good spot to read or practice her theatrics. It was even better on days when Raziel, the dragon, wasn’t in a bad mood. She often opened the window and conversed with him, in dragon tongue however, and had even gotten his input on several of her audition pieces in the past. Surprisingly Lydia was one of the few who the beast could tolerate to be around, and she made a point to visit with a volume of Shakespeare and a bowl of fresh sugar cookies.

At the moment she was completely lost in her novel, walking along the empty halls with her nose stuffed in the pages. ’I wonder if that rumor was true?’

As they walked nearer the dragon, Nadia saw as the dragon did not seem to want to attack them. Instead, it was watching them, as if curious of what they would do. Somehow, Nadia felt reassured after that and had stopped shaking. "Poppy, Haku, look! It doesn't seem to want to attack us" Nadia whispered to them. Although it doesn't seem to right now, who knows what it would do when they did made a sudden move. "You guys hungry? I think I still have my bag of cookies" Nadia asked as she pushed Haku and walked along with Poppy, hoping that the light tone she used with them would make them feel less frightened.

Haku keep breathing in and out but could not stop even though Nadia told them to calm down. With one final stretch, he could feel his conscious slowly fading away has he stared at the dragon. He could barely hear anything at that point since the fear was taking over him. He could feel his heart getting weaker and weaker. He took his hand and slapped his face, trying to keep him self awake. He finally freaked out when they got close to the dragon, leaning more back into his wheel chair has he can. The only thing he could do was stay silent and have a panic attack.

Vixy roamed the halls of the school in search of the humans everyone was talking about when her nose caught scent of something...edible. It smelled spicy and smoky and it was enough for her attention to be diverted. "Fooooood!~" she called happily as she let her nose guide her through busy and empty and busy and empty again halls. It was when she was running through a long hallway with no windows that she wondered if this was a good idea.

Maybe I should go where there are others around... her thoughts stopped when she turned the corner to a hall with windows on one side and she was looking right at a very very big dragon. "Eek!" she said, hiding back around the corner and peeking out. THIS was where her nose had brought her to? That dragon was surely not edible...but man it smelled good. Sighing, Vixy stepped out into the hall and took a few steps forward and a different smell hit her. Not of something edible, but something she didn't smell earlier. Prancing closer, she saw behind the big frame of the dragon that there were three others in the hall. Two girls and a boy who looked hurt. Was that dragon messing with them? "Hey! Scaley face! OVER HERE!" she yelled. "You better not be bullying these guy!" she said, hands on her hips and taking a step back once the dragon turned to her. "Uh..." she said nervously before waving her hand towards the three people who she did not know yet to be the mysterious humans that somehow got to this world. She made a "get out of here" motion as she returned her gaze back to the big creature.

"Pick on someone your own size buddy." she said, sounding alot tougher and unafraid than she really was. What the hell was she doing? This was really dangerous.

What was that, yelling? Lydia pulled herself from her book with a look of confusion of worry. Someone had definitely been yelling and from what she could tell it was close. Now which way was it coming from? The shifter’s eyes narrowed, her ears shifting into a pair of fluffy dog ears to hear the commotion better. It wasn’t a difficult change but the ears felt unnatural on her head. That’s when she heard the person speak up again, suddenly growing worried as her new ears picked up on what was being said. It was in Raziel’s direction and it didn’t sound pleasant.

"Pick on someone your own size buddy."

Lydia quickly took off, her shoes pounding on the tile floors. She had a bad feeling this voice was talking to a particular dragon and if her hunch was correct then they were in danger. Raziel could be nice if you spoke dragon tongue and were very lucky but if you said the wrong thing, in any language, he could be inconsolable and temperamental. Her freshman year an upperclassman had decided to challenge him, or at least that’s how the proud creature had taken his teasing. That very student now has to walk around on a cane and had to teach himself how to write with his other arm for the year. He had broken his arm and permanently torn several ligaments in his leg. It wasn’t a pretty sight but the bully had gotten what he deserved, he had provoked something a lot stronger than he’d ever be, and it had struck him down.

However she didn’t want this person to make the same mistake and seeing as the halls here were empty, save her and this new voice, there was no one else to stop the fool from being killed.

Nadia stood frozen as she heard someone shouting. She looked around and saw a person, waving at them to get over there. The person was a female and she had.. cat ears..? Or was it fox ears..? She stared at the girl for awhile, before noticing that the dragon seemed angry. Alarmed, Nadia could not think of what to do. The dragon's attention wasn't on them but on that girl. A bad feeling came to her and Nadia didn't want that girl to get hurt. "U-Uhmm! T-The dragon didn't do anything wrong! We were.. uhh.. we were just passing by" Nadia shouted back, moving slowly towards the girl with cat ears. She looked at Haku, seeing that he was terrified beyond means. Nadia tried to soothe him gently by patting his head, whispering to him and Poppy that everything was going to be alright.

Sitting at his desk tie loosened and sleeved rolled up Anthony quietly looks over course work "well if there was points for trying.." he said as he marks the tests "girl is a feathered serpent yet she doesn't know what human civilization worshiped on of her kind..." he mutters as he scratches his right arm. part of his tattoo showing there was some commotion going on somewhere... he thinks as he notices two students rush by his open door. I'm sure my students will tell about it later, no reason to bother with it now

Vixy's eyes flickered to the girl who spoke as the three people came towards her. They smell weird... was her first thought, and her second thought was Woah. Her hair is the same color as mine! which caused her tail to wag happily for a moment. She waited until the three were near her before she spoke again. "Well, if you were just "passing by," this big fella wont mind if you leave. Though it looked to me like he was tryin' to pick a fight." she said, crossing her arms. The whole 'trying to look intimidating' thing was likely not going so well, and that dragon looked like it was thinking about trying to do something.

"You guys should probably run." she said simply.

"But won't sudden movements make it feel more like wanting to attack..?" Nadia asked seriously as they reached the girl with ears. Nadia couldn't help but stare at them in awe, thinking how realistic her ears look like. She gave the girl a small smile and then looked at Poppy and Haku, wondering if thy were alright.

"Well then... run in slow motion?" Vixy suggested as she took a few steps backwards. "Either way, i dont really want to be torched so we should probably get out of here at least. Do you have any idea how long it takes to get hair as long as mine?" she turned and started gently pushing the blonde girl towards the safe hallway. "I'll tell you. a very very very long time. And i sure the three of you wont smell any better if you were burned crispy. Do you want to be dragon food? I dont think sooooo." vixy rambled on and on, trying to seem more calm than she was as the four of them shuffled closer to the 'safe zone'.
