Po's Pov

I pulled my hood over my head, and walked down the hall of Mountian Ridge High School. I'd been covering my body as much as possible so nobody noticed that I'd been starving myself. Especially Laa-Laa, the alpha. I put my phone in my pocket, then slipped my ear buds under my hoodie so I could hear my music without someone like a teacher or hall monitor asking me to put them away. I took a brief glance at my schedule, and paused for a moment.

First class is A-18

I jogged down the hall, and set one foot into my new homeroom. There were so many people I didn't know. I felt lost. Suddenly, my eyes locked onto hers. Fuck this shit. I had a class with Laa-Laa. And my seat was right beside her. I took a deep breath in, and collapsed in my chair. I avoided eye contact with the wolf beside me, and began to do my board work. I could feel her eyes boring holes into the side of my head. Well if I'm that ugly, say something! Didn't your parents tell you that staring is rude? I tapped my paper, trying to think of anything else. I had art for a homeroom, class, and elective. Mrs. Burton was really nice, and didn't mind if we were talking, cussing, or using sexual language. Since I was done, I pulled out a manga to read. It's about a girl named Hikari who goes on an adventure to find her father who mysteriously disappeared after a freak storm. No trace. I already knew Laa-Laa was going to tease me, but the downside of this class is that Mrs. B let's us fight. I rubbed my skinny arm, and looked around the class. I noticed Dipsy in a corner with Tinky, who had a bright red face. He tried to punch Dipsy, but got a kiss instead. I smiled at the two. I calmly watched Tinky Winky having a breakdown and Dipsy hugging him, which made his temper even worse. They were cute together. I felt eyes once again, and quickly glanced at Laa-Laa, before turning away. I'd used to like her, but then she hurt me. Everyday (not Saturdays or Sundays) for the past 2 years either verbally or physically she found a way to cause harm to me. "M-may I use the bathroom?" I asked shaking. Mrs. B nodded without looking up, so I quickly grabbed my things and left.

Laa-Laa's Pov

I'd noticed how Po quickly left and took everything with her. I leaned back in my seat. "I'm going too. I got up, and grabbed my things as well, since I planned on skipping when I finished. I popped my head into the bathroom. Po had her shirt lifted just enough for me to see how skinny she was. Since she wasn't looking in the mirror, I shoved her into a stall. "Clothes. Off." Her face turned bright red, and she looked away. Since she wasn't doing what I asked, so I snatched the hoodie off of her, revealing her skinny body. She shivered and stared. Unfortunately for dragons, if they're around their crushes, they get heart shaped pupils. I decide to read the book she had gotten me after the old counceler said we needed to understand each other better. I took a close look at her, before carefully taking one of her arms in my hand. So fragile. I felt my cheeks redden a little bit, and I looked down at her legs. She's like.. a flower. I let go of her arm, and looked away. "Why?" I asked, keeping my voice steady. "Why aren't you eating?" Po looked away, putting her clothes back on. "Hell I don't know. Maybe because YOU make me feel like a worthless bitch, which is sad considering you're the dog." I snarled deep in my throat as the dragon put her pants on. I slid under the door, and waited for her to come out. I'll show you who the dog is. Little prick! I felt a heavy pain on my back. The door had swung open, and Po was walking out like nothing happened. I swung my tail in defeat, knowing I'd have to fight her outside of school. I grabbed my bookbag and left. I didn't have time for this hell hole.

Walten

I screeched in terror, as my wings unfolded below me. Conor had to grab my arms to keep me from falling into the water since we're pheonixes. I fluttered my wings, and lifted myself up into the air. I smell of leaves was killing me. I'd perch in a TREE if they didn't burn. I spread my wings once again, then managed to lift into the air, floating over the water. I fell onto the rocks on the other side of the lake, but it was a start. "Ok watch me." Conor spread his wings, and with two powerful thrusts, he was at least 6 feet from the ground. I tried again, and fell. I'm not giving up. I tried Conor's technique, and I was in the air with him, even though  I was struggling. Conor's Dusty red eyes flashed with humor and pride. "Now follow me. I'm taking you up to the dragon lands to see if Po is there." Firey breath billowed from his beak, and we were in a portal. "Isn't Po at that school?" I asked. I portal turned gray and suddenly we were in town. "Sorry. Forgot." Conor said, flying towards the school. I fluttered after him, not wanting to be left alone. When we got there, I saw a yellow tubby walking from the school, most likely skipping. "School has only just started, so I'm registering you, and going home. You should visit our house, and get accustomed to the town." I nodded, and followed Conor into the building. Why do I have a bad feeling?

Po's Pov
(A week later)

I'd made a couple of new friends since the incident in the bathroom, and I ate a bit more. I saw Laa-Laa in the halls less often, and it was like she was avoiding me. I was in the cafeteria talking and laughing with Miles, Kenny and a new student Walten. I threw a pea at Miles who somehow swallowed it. The boy started choking, so Walten punched him in the back. The pea rolled onto the ground and we laughed, as Miles struggled to catch his breath. I took a bite out of my pizza. "You guys know we're getting our dorms right?" Lenny's gray and black tail twitched when Miles picked it up. "Yeah. Anyway, what type of hybrid are you?" Lenny opened his mouth to answer, when Walten grabbed his ice cream bar. "A gay one." He said, unwrapping the bar. I snorted and Miles quickly covered his mouth, not wanting to laugh. "Lenny is so gay, that he needs to cross-dress at least twice a week." I burst into a laughing fit, and Miles once again choked, this time on water. "I-i'm not gay!" He stuttered. "And YOU'RE the one wearing booty shorts! Every boy stares!" I smug look crossed onto the pheonixes face. "So you stare?" At this point, Lenny's tail was turning as pink as his face. He covered his face with his hands, and shook rapidly. "I hate you guys so fucking much!" He was trembling, and obviously was embarrassed. I pat his head, and grabbed our trays to toss them in the trash. "I'm lesbian. I understand how you feel. And Walten, stop being a shitty friend." This time, it was Lenny's turn to laugh. "He's still gay." Walten snorted. I watched a red tubby from Miles' other friend groups walking over. Technically, it was Miles and Lenny's group. "Lenny still watches Steve-" "SHUP UP RICHARD!" Lenny was dying at this point, as he teleported leaving a scorch marks on the chair. "See! He is gay." Walten said giggling. "I'll go check on him though." Walten stood up, and went to find the poor berry. "I'm gonna get a soda. You should get to class." Miles said, tossing me his Sprite. I nodded, and walked down the hall. I love my friends.
