                                Tori Laya POV

        I flew out of the opening in the roof of our school once the bell rung, signifying the end of the school day. Every school had a special way for us hyrids to get in and out of school. Usa-chans have a underground maze that's simple for them but hard for other hybrids. We Tori's have our roof opening since we're the only hybrids with wings. Neko's have to answer this really complicated question with a certain shake of their tail. Inu's have to safely get through a battlefield of weapons.

        "You did really well today." A familiar voice, one that could be recognized as Tori Matthew, said. I shook my head at him and frowned.

        "Your not mad at me?" I asked him, upset that he wasn't trying to take revenge on me for beating him up. Matthew shook his head and grinned.

        "You had to beat me, otherwise your level would have dropped in the competition." He stated, trying to reassure me.

        "Pfft, you can't beat me..." I growled. I flew away from him really fast before my instincts took over and I try to fight him to prove my dominance. Tears started to trail their way from my eyes to my chin. I wish I wasn't a Tori anymore!!!

        It's hard to be in a relationship and be a Tori at the same time. Even simple teasing could turn into a fight with us...it's in our blood. I loosened my tie and unbuttoned my vest, revealing my red shirt underneath. I hated the way my life had to be but it'll be all over once I'm Malago.

                        Neko Neya POV

        

        I ran as fast as I could (really fast) to our meeting place. Usa-chan Kiyah probably would be late as usual, since she always flirted with Usa-chan Sterling after school and vice versa. I still don't understand why they just don't ask each other out, oh well. Giants hands suddenly covered my eyes and I had to resist the urge to bite him.

        "Derrick, I know that's you." I said, grinning. The hands uncovered my eyes and turned me around to face a smiling Neko Derrick. He wrapped his arms around my waist and nuzzled his face into my neck.

        "You smell good..." Derrick said, nuzzling his face deeper into my neck. I laughed and tried to squirm out of his strong hold.

        "Stop that tickles!" I giggled as he let me go.

        "This place is shaded by so many trees...why didn't you guys fing a meeting place with more...sunlight?" He asked. I shrugged and started to push him out of the meeting place.

        "Shoo..before the girls come and see you." I said as I kissed his cheek and gave him one last shove. Soon enough, Tori Laya burst through the trees and Inu Kira came bursting through the bushes.

        "Where's Usa-chan?" They asked, probably already knowing where she was.

        "We all know where she is.." I said with a wink.

                Usa-chan Kiyah POV

        I laughed as Usa-chan Sterling carried me to the park on his back. I hadn't expected him to actually give me a piggyback ride...but he does the unexpected sooo..
