You idly scratch at one of your injuries while sitting in one of the benches strewn across the academy. So far it's been a trial just figuring out what the hell happened to the victim, who after a quick search, you found out was part of the drama club here. Sighing, you pull up a list in your notes, jotting down a few potential leads here and there. Unfortunately, it's not enough to go off of, and you tap your head in frustration. Suddenly, your phone beeps, and you quickly answer it.

"Hello?"

"[Name]! Have you found any leads yet?"

"Not really, only hints and half-assed clues really..." You hear Ms.Sakura sigh, and you roll your eyes.

"I don't see YOU out here trying to figure out this mystery." The fox on the other end laughs.

"That's because I have you! Oh, before I forget, I contacted the headmaster about this. I pulled some strings, and he would like to have a word with you." You gulp, wondering if they had found out about the guard.

"You didn't do anything bad, did you?" You feel some sweat going down the side of your face.


"Er...No?" There was a pause, before Ms.Sakura replied.

"Well if you say so, see you later [Name]!" With a click, she hung up, and you sighed in relief. Looking back at the school, you decided to take Ms.Sakura's info to mind, and headed back into the building.

"Ah, Mr.[Name] I presume? Please, have a seat." You sat down in a relatively comfy looking office, staring at the headmaster. His tail swished idly as he sat down across from you.


"I've heard about you from Ms.Sakura. I must say, having someone of your...standing is an honor!" You noted the pause in his speaking, but let him continue.

"Have you found anything out about the incident?" At his insistence, you pulled out your phone and read off a list of potential suspects. He nodded at your words.

"Ah, Mr.[Name]-"

"Just [Name] is fine."

"O-oh. Well, [Name], I can't help but notice that a large amount of suspects are carnivores. Is there any reason for that?" He glances down at the notes. You nod, face solemn.

"Headmaster Gon, with all due respect, you can't seriously think that an herbivore did all this, can you?" You scroll down to a picture shown from a newspaper. "There wasn't even a body left behind, and the door showed signs of brute force entry. Judging by the student list you gave me earlier, it can really only be a carnivore." You see the tiger take in a shuddering breath, nodding.

"I, I see. Well then, I suppose I should get on with the other thing I've called you here for then." He stares at you for a bit, before speaking in a firm, clear voice.

"I want you to attend Cherryton Academy." You stiffen in shock.

"Eh? What would I need to attend for?"

"You are one of a kind. With tensions between Herbivores and Carnivores building, adding you into the mx might potentially quell things down, on the account of your sudden enrollment. Plus, it'd allow you full access to the whole campus without drawing suspicion constantly." Before you were able to deny, he continues, "Oh, and Ms.Sakura was the one who came up with the idea in the first place, so if you have any complaints, please talk to her." You felt your eye twitch. What the hell was that crazy fox thinking!? She knew how you felt around total strangers, much less animals! You clench your fist, out of sight from the headmaster, sighing heavily.

"When do classes start?"

"Hello?"

"I hate you."
