(This thread is for all members of Animalia Academy: @alec, @lucario, @damianwright, @mewkitty, Jet Marcus, Kevin Jake, @iamawesomeno) It was the first group outing. Everyone was instructed to meet at the edge of the forest at 3:00 sharp. As the student council president, Claire Blakely, waited for her classmates to arrive, she flicked her thick snow leopard tail in a patient, bored way. It was 2:57

The arctic wolf/ human half blood walked towards Claire with a smile. "Hey! Watcha got planned?" She asked

The wolf half-blood stood next to Angelica. "So." He asked. "What are we going to do today?"

"just go out for our first outing, get used to shifting and stuff," Claire replied with a slight shrug as though it were no big deal that she could morph into a huge savage beast whenever she felt like "letting loose"

(can this be where Opheilia spills the news?)
Opheilia walked out into the forest, smelling the fresh fragrance of pine. Twigs crunched under her feet, and the wind bew gently in her hair. When she found the others, she said, "Hey guys! Oh, Does Angelica know? Y'know, about the h-word.(human)" asked Opheilia.

All of the students had unique animal forms. Inori, well, she had the form of one of the most common house pets. Hopefully, there was more to her than being known for a common house pet. Yes, she was a cat which you are right that dogs practically rule the cats and dogs rivalry. They are at the top, and Inori was on the bottom. Inori was scared of dogs, and she also showed some hatred for dogs due to being the dog's rival, a cat. Inori kept on walking until the edge of the forest came into view where she saw Kevin, Angelica, Opheilia, and Claire. She practiced a few words of greeting in her mind. She walked up to them and looked up at them, feeling so tiny in a big world with tall people. "Uh... h-hi.." she muttered in greeting and looked around nervously.

Damian was already there, having arrived before any others. He made his entrance silently, gliding down from the treetops where he had spent the night. Sometimes it was nice just to sleep in the trees. Once he landed he tucked his wings back into his coat and walked up to the group.
"So what are we doing, exactly?"

[Yay Inori hates Jet! XD] Jet had finally started to come upon the group, trying to clear up his shyness. "Hi guys-" He said in a thick Russian accent. He caught his mistake fast and said in a regular voice, "I mean, uh, hi." He spotted Inori and thought about going up to her, but she was a cat and he was a dog,it was simple as that. Hoping to catch her glance, she smiled faintly and looked at the others. "Yeah, what ARE we going to be doing on this 'group outing'?"

Inori remained quiet and looked down at her shoes, bringing her feet together. Her tail flicked back and forth, and she lifted her head up at the sound of a Russian accent. It was that boy from earlier. His name was... Hm, she never recalled Jet saying his name before. Maybe he did and she wasn't paying attention. Jet seemed a little shy, too. That made Inori feel a little bit better about her shyness. There was something different about Jet, though. It kind of made Inori's hair stand on end. She couldn't help it! Inori walked up to Jet and tugged on his shirt gently to get his attention. She studied him carefully for a few minutes and pointed at him. "You're a dog..."

She stretched and looked over at the new comers with a welcoming smile. "Hello you guys! Glad you could make it!" She commented

Jet felt a light tug at his shirt an was surprised to see Inori. "Um..." He said. It was kind of awkward to have someone walk up to you and say you're a dog. Again slipping into his accent, he said "You're a cat half-blood right?" He asked out of slight offense. "It just seems like you're a little intimidated by me, no?" Jet explained with the slight flinch of his left ear. If she was afraid of him, then it would only annoy him. Sure cats and dogs were enimies, but what about as people? He thought to himself without even making another glance towards Inori.

"I-I am not!" the girl protested and wondered where he got that from. How would she be intimidated by him? He was a dog, though... Inori grew a little irritated when she noticed that he was about her height if not taller. Why did she have to be so short!? It was bugging her to death. She really wanted to grow like the other girls around her age. Her tail flicked and her cat ears twitched with curiosity. Jet's question shocked her. "I guess so... I mean, I do have cat ears and a tail. I think they call those nekos if they are half human and half cat-" Her voice dropped into a little whisper, and her ears and tail drooped with disappointment. Inori turned to face the front and glanced back at Jet a few times before she let out a small sigh. "I... I'm not very good at making friends, am I?" she thought to herself in a soft voice.

(Gah! So late to reply!)
Claire smiled as everyone began to arrive. "Well, I think that's everyone. (If not, just join guyz). To answer your questions, we're going out on our first whole-group outing. We wil be traveling in our animal forms, which might get a little awquard for us where we are located on the food chain." The council president winked with a wide grin. "I'll give you a few minutes to warm up, then we'll all change."
Actually, the real reason Claire wanted a few extra minutes was to talk to Opheilia. Slipping away from the front of the half-blood group, Claire made her way over to the girl. "Hey, um.." she began, chewing on her lip slightly. "This might cause some.. uh.. difficulty for you. You want me to just say you have a head injury and will be.. well, you can ride on me, if you want. We just can't have you 'change'."

A young girl with long, auburn hair looked around with a bewildered look on her face. The teachers were acting strangely when she got off the bus. They all covered their noses with their hands. Did the girl smell? No, it wasn't that. It had to be something else. The new girl reeked of human all over her body. The teachers didn't say anything, because they thought she might've been a runaway slave from the government. It still didn't explain why they couldn't pick up her animal scent to prove that she was a half blood. A teacher was kind enough to get past the human scent and send Cecelia in the direction of where all the students were gathered. That was strange... Cecelia shrugged it off and walked over to the students that were gathered at the edge of the forest. W-Wait a second!? She didn't register herself into a cosplay school, did she? The students had animal ears, animal tails, and wings! What was going on? Cecelia was unaware that there was such a thing as half bloods. Her father made sure she had no contact with half bloods nor would she be informed about half bloods existing. Her life was half blood free, and Animalia Academy was about to turn her life upside down on her first day attending the school. "U-Um... Hello. My name is Cecelia." she said and looked over the group of students again. Wow... Nice costumes, but what are they for?

Damian shot a sideways glance at Ophelia. She had revealed her secret to him just last night, so he knew that she would have a bit of difficulty with this. He knew a couple other half-bloods knew her secret as well. Judging from the way Claire was acting, she was one of those few who knew her secret. He gave a small nod and looked in the direction of the newcomer. Who, once again, had no ears, tail, or wings to show off her animal characteristics. Damian seriously didn't want to believe that another human had gotten past. Being wary, the teen hid his wings and slowly approached the newcomer with narrowed blue eyes.
"U-Um... Hello. My name is Cecelia." Damian wasn't taking any more chances. "So what animal are you?" he asked, deciding to be straightforward. "As in, what can you turn into?" he added in case she didn't know.

She smiled and waved at Cecelia. "Hey! Welcome!" She called before shifting easily into an arctic wolf. Shaking her white fur out she looked up at the others and waited.

Kevin waved at Cecelia. Then he shifted into a wolf, letting the fur cover his body. "Let's go!" He said.

A loud thud hit behind the group. "You guys didn't forget about me, did you?"
A 5'11 teen boy with dark hair, dark eyes, and handsome features was behind them. He had light brown wings behind him. "Unless you did, I'm Griffin, Adam Griffin." said Adam. Adam was wearing a burgundy beanie, a tan t-shirt, jeans, and black converse shoes. Before, he was up in a tree, watching the crowd. They never said anything like, "Where's the rest of the group?". A bit annoyed, he swooped down and landed very hard, to get their attention.
He walked toward the group, and walked towards Damian.

"W-What animal am I...?" What kind of question was that!? Poor daddy's girl was being protected from half bloods for her whole life. Her father didn't even want her to know about them. He must've been on the government's side about the situation. Cecelia stared down at her body with confusion. Startled by Adam's loud landing, Cecelia jumped a little and let out a squeak. What the heck was going on? Were they really not playing dress up? Well, of course not! That guy just flew down from a tree, and two students turned into wolves! Cecelia turned back to Damian, wondering how she was going to answer his question. There was no way she could change the subject and ignore his question. That would be rude, and her father taught her better than that. "Um.. I'm sorry but I really don't know what you're talking about." she said with a tilt of her head, laughing nervously. I'm already the weird new girl... but I'm curious about what they can do. I have never seen anything like this before. I didn't even think this could actually happen! Not in my lifetime at least...

Kevin shifted back to human and walked over to Cecelia. "He means what animal can you shift into? For example, I'm half-wolf." He said, as he shifted back to wolf form.

Cecelia had a nervous look on her face when Kevin walked up to her in his human form. She took a step back, but she stayed and listened to what he had to say. It wasn't making any sense! Cecelia was a human... and they were animals that could turn into humans? Kevin explained to her that he was a half-wolf. "L-Like a werewolf?" She watched him turn into a wolf, and she gazed at him with amazement. The girl crouched down and gently stroked Kevin's wolf fur. It was so pretty and wolf-like. So, they really were half human and half animal. It wasn't an act after all. Cecelia hoped she would wake up any time to realize that it was just a dream but maybe it wasn't. "So, you guys are shapeshifters or something like that?" It was obvious that she had no idea what they were talking about, so that only meant one thing. Cecelia was a human. She didn't belong in Animalia Academy with the others and that she should be destroyed or sent back to the human world.

"We're not shapeshifters..." said Adam. And, I don't think she is one...

Kevin shifted back to a human. "Were not shapeshifters, we're half-bloods. So im sorta like a werewolf, but I can transform any time. Damian here is half snow owl. You can see I'm a wolf because..." He took of his hat and showed her his wolf ears, then his tail. Then he realized something and shook his head. "You're another human!" He moaned.

If they weren't shapeshifters, then what were they? The only thing Cecelia could come up with was animals turning into humans. Maybe it was a new type of animal to be discovered. No, there was just no way... Cecelia stood up when Kevin turned back into his human form. Aw! Kevin looked cute with his wolf ears and tail. So, he was like a werewolf... sort of. "Another human?" There was another human at the school? Who was it? Maybe that student would know more about what was going on. I have to be dreaming... Humans turning into animals. It just can't be true... Kevin sounded like Cecelia was a tragedy because she was a human. What was the big deal, anyway? She was a human so what? They were all half human, weren't they? There were so many questions running through her head that it made her a little dizzy. Her unanswered questions were driving her crazy! She had to know what was going on and how she ended up in the situation she was in. "That was kind of rude how you said that, though. You're half human, aren't you?"

"We all are. It's just that, full humans, they threaten us." said Adam as he shuddered. "If you're wondering who the other human is, it's Opheilia."

Damian pulled Cecilia aside and made sure that nobody was able to hear them before speaking.
"You need to answer me truthfully," he whispered seriously. "Are you a human or not? If you are you can't tell anybody, or you could get killed. Ophelia is a special case, some of us are keeping her secret because she's a friend, but if they know you are a human right off the bat it could be a problem."

Her chances of being a human was crystal clear to all of them. The girl didn't know what they were talking about, and she never answered what kind of animal she could turn into. The only possibility of her being a half blood was if she had amnesia and forgot she could turn into an animal. That was very unlikely in this case. Cecelia blinked curiously as Damian pulled her away from the group so they could talk in private. One look into those green eyes of hers, and Damian would know for sure that the girl was completely lost in the conversation. Cecelia had no idea she was going to a school meant for half bloods only. She didn't even know such things existed! It was all because her father wanted to protect her from them. He believed that they could be savaged beasts that would come after his precious daughter. He also believed that they wanted to take over man-kind. Cecelia actually believed Damian was trying to help her, but she couldn't be so sure of that. "How can I trust you?" She didn't ask it with an attitude but in a calm, serious voice. She had to be careful. Damian could be the one that would turn her in, and she would be killed because of him. She had to stay low and make sure she made allies with the right people.

"The same reason I haven't turned in Ophelia. She has a family that cares about her, and I would never hurt them by exposing you. Just don't turn us in back at the human-world and we should be fine," Damian whispered back, understanding that her reason for being doubtful had been understandable. "It's kind of obvious you are a human, I can help you hide it until we don't need to anymore."
"Hey! Can Cecilia and I go on our own for a bit?" he called out. "We'll stay near the group, but we want to explore on our own." Damian hoped that he would be allowed to, for the human's sake.
"Just trust me."
