My Werewolf System

After Numba had left Gary alone with the nurse, the woman had asked Gary a few routine questions before attempting to get his blood sample. Biding his time, the green haired teenager had asked for some food, but the medical professional had told him that the doctor ordered her to get the test done first.

With no better idea, the Werewolf told the woman that he really needed to go to the toilet, and with him just having woken up, she understood why he might need to go. Unfortunately for him, she had accompanied him right to the door, and since he stayed inside for over five minutes, the nurse was just about to call the doctor. Naturally, the green haired teenager had quickly left his impromptu hideout.

During that whole time, Gary himself was thinking of a plan, any plan to get him out of the situation, even climbing out of the toilet window, turning into a werewolf and never coming back to the academy again.

In the end, he could think of nothing.

After returning to the room, the nurse was ready and had eventually taken his blood, though not before Gary had destroyed one needle by ‘accidentally’ flexing his muscles during the procedure, he was devastated. Now more than ever, he would have loved for someone to tell him what to do.

In the end, he just laid there in his troubles. The only good news was that he could finally eat having taken the blood test. After a short while, the food had arrived and he was drawing his sorrows by eating.

‘Goodbye academy, this could be the last meal I eat.’ He thought as he stuffed his face.

Suddenly he heard a commotion outside, and since the voices sounded familiar, he decided to take a look outside. Walking down the hallway, he saw that everyone had gathered around the reception. The next second he had to blink several times and rub his eyes as he couldn’t believe what he was seeing.

In the reception, there was a Goat Altered who was currently fighting a Hedgehog Altered. At the start, Ian had just been playing around, but after hurting each other a few times on accident trying to make it realistic, there were some real feelings involved.

“Numba… Ian? What the hell are the two of you doing?” Gary asked loudly since they both had bloody wounds. He was confused about what could have happened in the short period of time that he had last seen his friends, that might have led to the two of them to fall out this brutally.

While the attention shifted to the new arrival, Izzy took the chance to exit the hallway, briefly giving the Goat Altered a thumbs up to signal that she had completed her part of this mission, before disappearing.

Instead of answering him, Numba ran towards Gary and hugged him in front of everyone.

“We’ve got it resolved. You should be all good now.” The Goat Altered whispered to him, before he let go.

Ian raised an eyebrow, unsure whether he should continue with the script about this merely being a spat over a girl. Ultimately, he decided to pretend to take this as his win.

“Yeah, you better run to your boyfriend. If I see you next to her again, nobody will be able to help you!” He loudly harrumphed and ran out before anyone could stop him.

“This is what friends do, we look out for each other.” Numba silently mouthed those words as he walked away. Gary received the message loud and clear, and believed that the fight had been part of a bigger plan to help him with his problem.

Later that night, there was worry in the room. Gary was starting to think if he had gotten the message from Numba all wrong. When the nurse entered, she had given the results of the blood test, informing Gary that they found no abnormalities in his blood. He was also informed that the blood had already been disposed off, and taken off file.

After that, he was told to go to his new room. It was a bit hard to find with the AFA being so large, but once he saw the red, yellow and blue building he was sure that was in the right place.

The apartment block could hold around five hundred students, and although there wasn’t a giant ranking system that dictated every student’s quality of life, the colours did serve a similar function.

The reason the AFA had such a great reputation for raising talented students, was because they wouldn't allow just anybody to progress to the AFC. For the time being, Gary had been told to head to the red section of the building, and enter room 114, which was on the bottom. Once he proved his worth, he would eventually climb up to the other buildings.

‘Well, it looks like I won’t be bumping into Xin any time soon, but it does make me wonder. All those students we fought should be in the blue dormitory, but if we had beat them, would we automatically have been assigned to the blue dormitory? Or was that never possible and it was really just some type of assessment?’

Gary felt a little left out since all of that had probably been told to Numba on the others earlier today. While they had all enjoyed the first day of the AFA, he had spent it in the hospital bed, praying that whatever Numba had done to his blood test had worked.

Since that had been taken care of, If he couldn't figure out a good way to get out of the next full moon, lock him somewhere or escape far away in the woods, then he would leave the academy before then. While here, though, he would learn as much as he could and make plenty of connections… at least if they weren’t stuck up arseholes like Sty that is.
