I woke up with a blinding headache. Luka was by my side, looking ashamed. "I should have told you all before." he muttered, cursing. I scowled. "Luka, I think that's the worst of our worries right now." I looked a class full of... College students? They were staring at us through the glass, taking notes. I got furious, and shifted, ramming into the glass. I growled at Luka. "Where are the others?" Luka shook his head. "I don't know. From what I hear the students talking about, there's going to be some obstacle course. I like those." Ok. Luka was flipping loopy. There is no way in hell he would ever say that. Ever. He just proved my point further when he stood up, and tripped into the wall. He bounced off the wall and knocked me over. "What the hell, man?! Watch it!" I shouted, slapping him. He sat down, not able to focus on anything. "S-sorry... Can't focus... I'm tired... Dizzy..." I sighed. "Lean on me. Just don't freaking shift." He nodded. I grasped his arm, jerking him to his feet. He leaned heavily on me, when I heard one of the students say "They rely heavily on each other!" I nodded at Luka, who seemed to have regained a tid bit of his old energy. He stepped away from me, glaring at the students. Suddenly, he seemd about ready to fall over. I grasped his arm with a scowl. "We'll never prove anything with you acting drunk." Luka spat at me. "It's not my fault they did this to us!" Suddenly, my head snapped around, and I shifted on instinct. My bristles rose, my blue eyes fierce. A door behind us creaked open a crack. I clawed at the space, snarling in furiousness. It opened fully, and I broke into a run. Luka stumbled behind me, not able to keep up. I scowled, furious to be delayed by him. I slowed down, staring at the ground in front of me. When we got to a wall, I sighed. "Looks like we'll be here a while," commented Luka. I lightly bit his hand. "Shut up. Don't jinx it." He yelped, tearing his arm from my jaws. "What was that for?" he cursed. I chuckled. Suddenly, the wall opened with lightning speed. What I saw in the other room was a wall closing down. I bit Luka's arm again, who growled in protest, and raced underneath the closing wall. It was slowly closing, and there was still room for a human to walk under it. I laughed nervously. Luka glared at me. "Really? Was that necessary?" I laughed nervously again. "Umm... I freaked..." Luka hissed. "You'll be lucky if I don't tear you to pieces." I shrank away, trembling. I knew he would do it if he meant it. "Only if you catch me first." I taunted, regaining my confidence as the wall rose. I darted under it, into the next room. I saw a hamburger lying in the middle of the room. "Oh. My. God. They have hamburgers here?" Luka scowled as I bit down on it. "Yum!" I said in a mouthful of burger. Suddenly, the world swayed, and went black.
