-- 8 A.M, Before school--

As Ren, Chris, and Harlow walked into the school, they talked about how Ren should hide his arm, as right now, he had hidden it inside his jacket's sleeve.

''I can't keep this thing on the entire day! it's not even allowed, I could get detention!'' Ren says, slightly panicked
''Well, thankfully I thought ahead and grabbed a glove for you back home while you were having a panic attack.'' Harlow says.
''It's better than nothing I suppose...'' Chris says, sounding very worried.

As the 3 walked to their first class, they were shocked to see that there were 2 new students, but they weren't... normal. They were like Chris and Harlow, Anthropomorphic Animals.

''Alright class, today we have some new students. Please welcome Alex and Theo Yuuki.'' The teacher announces.

—The New Yuuki's Introduction—
Alex Yuuki
Anthro species: Cat
Creation age: 2 Days
Mental Age: 16
A very quiet boy only speaks a few words but is definitely very smart, Spends all of his time with Theo and Moon and draws while they talk about other stuff.

Theo Yuuki
Anthro Species: Wolf
Creation Age: 2 Days
Mental Age: 16
An already very popular student who spends a lot of time in the library and with Alex and Moon. Even though he is ''friends'' with Chris, he does distance himself from the other shifters (Ren and Harlow)


''I AM gonna assume you kids are gonna treat them like normal people after what happened with Chris and Harlow? Since it seems like you all don't think they're any different from normal, well... Humans.'' The teacher explains as the class starts chatting about the 2 new students.

''Do you think Ren created them like those other 2?''
''Isn't Yuuki Moon's last name as well?''
''They seem alright...''
The students' chatter ends as the teacher assigns Alex and Theo their new seats.

--12 P.M, Lunchtime--
After a few classes and when Lunch break starts, Ren, Chris, and Harlow approach Moon and the two newcomers.

''Moon, what the HELL is this?'' Ren asks.
''What? you think you're the only one that can create life like those guys?'' Moon responds sarcastically.
''Well apparently NOT! How did you even manage to create them?!'' Ren asks again.
''That's something I'm not willing to explain you furry.'' Moon says as she laughs.
While Moon and Ren are arguing, Chris and Harlow are talking with Alex and Theo while eating their lunch.
''So... you guys are just like us?'' Chris asks.
''Apparently.'' Theo says.
''Well that's cool I guess... but if you try anything funny like Moon then I will make sure that you will be 6 feet under with Ren's failed experiments.'' Harlow says.
Theo just gulps and continues eating his lunch.

After Lunch, Ren and everyone else went to gym class, but then Ren remembered that he had to still hide his entirely black unhuman arm. While in the locker room, before everyone else arrived, Ren wrapped his arm up in bandages, hiding his arm.
''That's actually really smart, Ren'' Chris says.
''It honestly looks pretty cool, I must admit.'' Harlow says.

When Ren walked onto the gym court, he was immediately bombarded with questions about what happened.
''It's just an injury, don't worry about it, I'm fine.'' Ren answers their questions.
When the class started, everyone was asked to do some kind of gymnastics move.
As everyone did their moves, Ren grew nervous and asked Chris what to do.
''Dude I don't know what you're supposed to do! just try like, a summersault maybe? You could probably make a really good jump with the strength of your expe- I mean, bandaged arm.'' Chris says.
''Great idea, I can probably do that.'' Ren says confidently.
When it was Ren's turn to go, he took a huge running start and launched up into the air, doing multiple flips in the air.
''Wow Ren, that was Amazing! I'd give you higher than an A+ if I could!'' The Gym teacher says.
Out of the corner of his eye, Ren sees that Moon is looking at him in utter shock, but he doesn't mind it. After Gym class is over, the gang heads home.

--2 P.M, At Home.--
''Oliver we have got some news, and it might be really bad in the future.'' Ren says.
''What is it?'' Oliver asks.
''Moon has her own... versions? I guess? of us.'' Chris explains.
''Her own anthro's, Chris.'' Harlow says.
''Oh my, that does sound bad, do you think she stole blueprints? or maybe she took a picture of them?'' Oliver asks.
''I'm guessing she took pictures of them. She always has her phone on her anyway. And I know that even if it's a blurry picture, her brother, Sun can identify stuff really well, that's probably how she managed to build one of the machines that creates you guys anyway, with the help of her brother. I'll ask him about it tomorrow.'' Ren says.
''Alright, well aside from Moon and her new ''friends'', I've found a new universe on the Shifter, do you guys wanna go there tonight?'' Chris asks.
''Fine by me.'' Harlow says.
''Definitely.'' Ren responds.
Chris nods in agreement.
''Alright then, it's settled, get ready everyone, we're going to a new universe.'' Ren says.
