This isn't all of it, I am in a bit of a rush to but this is what I have so far.


The lion slowly began to stretch his legs as he woke up," Shit...." he muttered as he noticed his clock read 7:21; Late again.

He jumped out of his bed, rushing to get ready for school. He slid on a pair of tight black jeans, covering his enlarged sheath as he stumbled torwards the bathroom. As he passed the mirror he took a quick moment to look at himself; His white fur still slightly damp from the late night shower, his crimson mane, more tangled then usual, "Damn you..." he snarled as he began to brush it lightly, trying to tame it.

After an hour of brushing, drying, and repeating he was finally satisfied with how he looked. He slid his paw across his chest gingerly, feeling the scar that remained a remnant of his hard childhood. With a saddened sigh he slipped into his bedroom; He grabbed a shirt and slid it on soon followed by a hoodie. He tied his shoes and braced himself for the crisp December air.

The lion jogged along the path muttering to himself, "Is it Math, or French today...?". He tilted his head down to look at his wrist, noticing it was well past 9 A.M right as he ran into what felt like a brick wall, falling back with an oomph.

"S-sorry!" he stammered as he caught a glimpse of the light brown Genet infront of him. "Oh, its just you Averick..."

"I was looking all over for you Octavious! We need to talk." the genet said in a low tone, rubbing his arm nervously.

"Later! I am an hour late as is!" the lion said before standing and taking off towards the main hall.
