Most people have some sort of hybrid DNA in them. Back in the 1800's there was an incident surrounding lab testing, that made some people turn animal like. Soon these people got the nickname of hybrids. Of course as the years went on the animal DNA became less and less in most people. If you have enough of the DNA in you, you too can turn hybrid.


George remembered when he first heard about hybrids, he was 10. Two of George's classmates had to move to a school for hybrids and seeing as the only schools were in America, that was a long move. It had started as a fight between two people, over something stupid, George couldn't remember exactly what, but he knew it was stupid, seeing as they were 10 years old.

One of the twins, Wilbur, was punched in the face, before anyone knew it Techno, the other twin, was by his side, punching the kid back. At one point Techno's rage took over, his face turning animal like. Like a pig with fangs, Techno had the snout as well. George later found out from a friend he was a boar hybrid. Wilbur changed as well, feeling like he needed to protect his brother. Except the animal he changed into was a cat, having whiskers, claws, the ears and a tail, the worst he could do was scratch the other people, which to be fair he did.

It was a weird day to say the least.


Almost seven years later.

When George's grandma passed he felt sad, but not just sad. It was like the world was going to end. George felt sick to his stomach when his mom gave him the news, feeling like he was gonna throw up, crying his heart out. George loved his grandma. Way more than most people does. George's grandma had taken care of him when he was younger, because his mom had him at an early age.

George began shaking, not just because he was sad, but like something in his body took over. With the blink of an eye George had the features of a cat, long hairy ears, whiskers, claws and a tail, the same as Wilbur had.

"George!" George's mom called, running to sit beside him. "You're a hybrid."

With one conversation George's life changed.


When George's dad pulled up to his new school, George was terrified. A new school where he knew no-one, and George was just a cat. What's he gonna do? Scratch a small mark into a Rottweiler?

"George, you have to get out of the car to get to school." George's dad said teasingly.

"I know, but I liked it better when I went to a normal school.." George said sad, feeling nervous and looking down at his claws.

"I know you are gonna make friends. You are a wonderful guy, George." His dad said, reassuringly.

"Thanks dad." George said opening the door. "I'll let you know if I need anything." George said as he got out.

"Okay, have a great day!" George's dad said, the two waving at each other as George's dad drove away.

"One day at a time." George said to himself looking at the paper map in his hands. When George looked up again he was overwhelmed by people with animal features running around the school. He had never seen so many hybrids in one place, where he was from there was barely any.

Inside the school's office George saw a few people sitting, waiting for something or someone, and some adults working, mostly writing something down on paper or looking at their computer screen.

"Yeah. You, the brunet." A woman called for George, who went over to her.

"Yeah, I'm new here and was told to find someone called BadBoyHalo." George said, looking rather nervous.

"That's me!" A guy with black long ears and a long fluffy tail sprung up, walking a bit closer to George.

"Hi I'm George." George said, studying the other's features.

"I'm BadBoyHalo, but most people call me Bad or Halo." Bad stated, beginning to show George around the school.

"And these are the science classrooms." Bad said pointing at the rooms to their right. "What kinda hybrid are you by the way?" Bad asked excitedly.

"I'm a cat.. A Norwegian forrest cat." George stated. "And you?" George asked.

"A Newfoundland dog." Bad stated.

"That makes a lot of sense." George teased, Bad laughing.

"Do you know anyone here?" Bad asked, making small talk.

"No, I just moved here from England." George said. "If my accent didn't give it away." George added laughing.

"Oh! We had two twins move here from England as well, we were like 10 when they started." Bad said. It couldn't be.. After all this time.

"Hi Bad." George heard a guy's voice say, with a hint of British in his accent.

"There he is! Wilbur, this is George, George this is-" Bad began introducing the two, soon caught off by George.

"WILBUR!" George jumped on the taller brunet. "OMG IT'S REALLY YOU!" Wilbur hugged George back, taking a step back to keep his footing.

"George?" Wilbur asked, not really believing he was really here. "Wait! You're a hybrid?!" Wilbur asked, taking a step back to look at George.

"Yeah! Yeah! I'm a cat! Like you!" George stated, still excited, spinning around so Wilbur could see his features.

"Techno!" Wilbur called out to his brother, who was standing not far from them, talking to some other people. "It's George! From middle-school!"

"George?" Techno asked, taken aback. "You really didn't grow up, did you?" Techno asked, bringing George in for a quick hug.

"Rude.." George said, with a scuff. "Just how I remember you." George teased back.


Maybe this school wasn't as bad as George first thought.
