We had finally arrived at Animacity the only thing seperating me from the city i always fantasized about was just one step off this boat.
But for some reason i stood there staring at the gap between the boat and the dock like i was going to jump off a cliff-
"Having second thoughts i see i wouldn't mind taking you back,its extra money for me anyways." She was obviously teasing or she really was serious.
Realizing that i was just stalling i took the small leap and now i was finally on Animacity's grounds.
I began to look around to see if any Beastmen were in the area but when i did All of them seemed to be in their Human form."Uhm Marie why is nobody in their beastman form"
"Most of the population here stays in their human form and when we do Transform its mostly in occasions, events or to just pick fights most of the time unless you're tanuki girl" she sighs at the last part.
I frown in disappointment but mostly sadness,from what i remember beastmen in the human side weren't allowed to take on their animal form its almost like it's the same here.
"That reminds me,if you really wanna see some beastmen in action there's a beastmen festival going around tonight hopefully it doesn't end up a mess like last year." i try not to question that last bit
"Thanks i will,also do you know where i could rent an apartment I'm planning on staying here for a bit"
"Ill hook you up with a good deal on one but first you gotta sign a registration form which you can get from the beastmen co-op." i tilt my head in confusion. "Ugh ill just mark the location on your phone give it here."

I started following the GPS to the beastmen co-op and although it made me make unnecessary turns i slowly got used to the routes and remembered as much as i could.
the streets were,to my surprise more lively then when i arrived,almost everyone looked so approachable,workers going about their day,teenagers doing..teenage things,Promotion screens and signs on the buildings and they even had their beastman version of Subway :"Dogway"!
I tried not looking too excited as i didn't want potential scammers to think I'm a tourist so that they can take advantage of.

after a few minutes of walking and double backing i had finally made it to the beastmen co-op obvious by that built in sign.
i Stood by the door and started knocking on the door and after a few seconds i was greeted by a man with glasses red hair and a perfect red moustache "Good morning!"He greeted cheerfully almost surprising me in the process but i greet back then he invites me to sit on the couch.
he goes over the kitchen at which point i hear a woman's voice talking about drinks.
i start contemplating the place it was as big inside as it was on the outside it had several bookshelves aligned against the wall and a big enough fireplace with what looked like a small statue in the form of a wolf on top there was also a set of stairs but i didn't want to be nosy and stayed on the couch instead.
a few seconds later the man along with the woman i heard approach me with a plate of biscuits and some tea
"Hello young man,My name is merrissa and this is my Husband Gem it is nice to meet you!" she introduces with a warm smile
"It's nice to meet you too! My name is Mihiro by the way" i introduce back
"So are you here for a place to stay?" Gem asked
"Uhm Sort of,i was told that in order to live in animacity i had to complete a registration form"
"Your source is right you have come to the right place i will hand you the papers and all you gotta do is sign them and we will get it checked out for you!"
"Oh wow Great! that was easier then i thought it would be" my body relaxes in relief "The process definetly improved" Merissa added with a chuckle.

after some paper work i was set to go and thanks to this i will be able to officially call myself a citizen of this city and might even be able to apply to a job to get money.

After gobbling up the delicious biscuits i informed Marie of this after realising she had sneaked her private number in when i gave her the phone and "hooked me up" with a small but affordable apartment.i decided to take my leave to set up for tonight's festival.
"Thanks for everything Gem And Melissa!!" i yelled out and as i opened the door getting out head first i bumped into a large figure causing me to get knocked back in.
i slowly regained my senses mostly my hurt butt and opened my eyes slowly to the sight of a tall Handsome but cold looking guy,he had hair as white as cotton and his eyes almost shined like diamonds he was wearing a long coat with a black shirt and dark blue pants and had a noticeable Scar on his neck,i had never stared at a guy this long but then i had finally realised that he was still looking right at me causing me to become self aware and turn into a warm blushin mess he offers his hand and i slowly take it and he lifts me up in no second.
"Sorry.are you hurt" he says so casually in a monotone deep voice
"I-uhm-no i am okay" That sentence felt like Dropping an achor.
We both stood their just eyeing eachother but we both looked away as soon as Gem and Merissa came to investigate the noise
"Oh i see you've met Mr.Ogami" Merissa calls out i look back at him but he stays quiet
"Shirou Ogami is our social worker here and he is of big help"
"M-Mihiro Akido it's nice to meet you" i then offer my hand for a handshake. he stares at my hand which is by now trembling but he shakes it anyways.
