CW: BULLYING
POV: FWHIP
This school is boring. Having to live in what's basically an educational version of what humans call 'camp'. Fancy as heck though. Everyone has assigned dorms, I'm with Joel, Sausage, and the boy we saved. I think his name's Scott? Before I get trapped in thought, I should talk to someone. "JOOELLLL" I must have scared him, due to him literally jumping out of his seat. "HOW DARE YOU-" Joel yells across the room, getting whispers from others. The only natural power I have is hearing, luckily I have some use... but I can hear people talking, most likely about Joel.
"Does that human ever SHUSH?!"  "he needs to either stop talking and messing with fables or LEAVE!"
"Fables" are what most people call mythical creatures or hybrids. It's mostly a 'you're this I'm that' word. "Helloooo, Fwhip?" I snap out of thought again, noticing my brother in front of me. "oh! hi sAUSAGE!" He lets out a sigh, before laughing for a second. "Good one, when's your next class?" Oh yeah, school. I grab my schedule and check what I have. "2:45, and it's another class I can't do." He looks at me with confusion before realizing it was a magic class. Then someone ran into me. Luckily I didn't fall, but I looked up to see a complete stranger. "Hey, look! Xander's got the human on the ground!"
Wait, human?
Crap. JOEL!
POV: JOEL
"What's wrong human? Someone WORTHY of being here would be!" The purple haired kid yelled at me as he shoved me to the ground. "Your... your issue is WORTHY? That sounds like something someone that ISNT would say!" This must have made him angry, as now his shoe is shoved against my chest, pinning me down. Against what movies look like, it makes it really weird to breathe. "Who's worthy now HUMAN?" He says as he puts down more weight. Suddenly, he flies off, with a blast of water going with it. "Not you, that's for sure!" It was a girl, around 6 or 7 feet tall, long, pink hair, and blue scales down the sides of her face.
Wow.
After a second, she turned to me, panic in her eyes. "Oh my ocean, are you ok?!" She grabbed my hand and helped me up, I'm still shaking. "Yea, thanks for getting him off me." I say while still breathing heavily. "JOEL THANK SAUSAGE YOURE OK!" It's Fwhip, running from across the room, he must have had his back turned when Xander pushed me. "I swear if I could-" "Fwhip, no attacking students." I say as I pull him in and hug him. He obviously wasn't expecting it, so he jumped. "A scare for a scare, got you!" He started laughing as Sausage walked up. "Are you ok? What happened? Do I need to-" "SAUSAGE STOP" I must have not noticed the swarm of people around Xander at the wall. "He's got some tough questions!" Sausage nudged at me with his ears perked up.
Actually, that wasn't that bad! I just need to stay out of harms way... or in!
