I followed my class through the devastating sea of other Grades and classes.

By the way, I really should tell you some of the names of the people in the class. Well, the ones I remember that is, I don't talk to many people, so I don't know their names, but I know their faces.

There's Grace, a brown rabbit with white stripes, she's one of the many few who are shorter than me.
She wears a green dress that seems to show everything east to west as well as what's under.
I'd consider her to be rather sexual. Perfect for those Playboy magazines.
She's all hip and trendy, she is obsessed with Instafang. She hangs out with all the popular girls.

There's Mike, another human who is shorter than me, he has spiky black hair and green eyes.
He looks like he just walked out of World War II, with his navy blue camouflage pants and big boots.
Sometimes, I must admit, I wonder if he has a sixpack under that T-shirt of his.

There's Rudolf, as tall as he is wide, he is a black bear with the most adorable smile, I just want to cuddle him like a big fat teddy.
He often wears dark colours, once he wore a black shirt and got in trouble for being shirtless until he explained.
Rudolf is a quiet soul, he seems like a mom-friend amongst his circle of friends.

There's Maxwell, he's really tall, about seven feet I'm guessing.
He's always wearing some weird draconic mask.
He looks human, but he certainly isn't, he's probably a demon.
He has horns poking out his head and wings that are always settled on his back.
He wears brown and orange 24/7 and looks like he just came out of a horror movie.

There's Steven, he's a badger, slightly taller than me.
He looks like he's from some rural area out of town. He even speaks with a strange accent, he sounds and looks like a total hillbilly, probably even smells it too.
He wears scruffy dungarees and a white T-shirt, I think that's all he wears. He's loud and boastful, but he hangs out with a large group of friends.

So, in conclusion, I only know five people out of twenty eight others.
Grace,
Mike,
Rudolf,
Maxwell,
and Steven.
That's it.

The rest I'm completely oblivious to. And these five, I guess I'm slightly acquainted with them. I think we've said hi to each other every now and again but that's pretty rare.

Anyway, I staying as close as possible to them all. But what's really cruel about this world, is that I didn't actually manage to stay with them.

I got departed when a huge group of furries got in the way.

Gosh darn it, I would swear, but it isn't in my nature.
Why is life so cruel to me?
Agh, now I sound like a whiny baby, there's people having a way worse time than just getting lost in highschool.

I ran up the hallway, dodging and ducking through the hoards of students to look for the Biology classroom.

I was still new to this highschool and didn't know where to go. Give me a break, it's only been two weeks!

There were a lot of other kids and furries, new and old, bustling around insanely, making it hard to take a simple step forward.
Lucky me I'm little so I can maneuver through.

Then I saw Erin. He was standing at the at the end of the hallway, and he was looking directly at me over the sea of bustling heads. He smiled slightly and waved.

He was obviously the tallest person in this whole hallway.
But that didn't mean he still has trouble walking through the mobs.
Earlier this morning he struggled a lot to get us to the bathroom so I could rinse my hand, I could tell it was quite a journey.

Without thinking, I walked to him. And it felt like nothing and no one was in my way. I don't know how, but it seemed like everyone decided to step aside at the exact same moment.
