Dallas glared down the aisle as he saw Benji peak his head out and then disappear. Dallas did not want to get out of his seat to reclaim his familiar that he should have under control since it is his familiar. Dallas yelled down the isle once more this time a bit more stern "Benji. You come back here." He couldn't believe him. should have rescued a fish. A fish would listen better than him. Dallas looked at his bag and then back to the aisle. Maybe it would be easier to just come up where Benji was sitting instead of dragging him back to their spot.

Meanwhile. Benji was sitting happily with his new friend that he was getting acquainted with. Benji had perked his ears as he heard Dallas yelling at him before he wagged his big fluffy tail with a small yip before he laid down on the girls lap. Benji had been through this type of thing many times. He knew Dallas was gonna come to him and then obviously be forced to socialize with people. Not that Dallas had a problem with that he just rather preferred not to which is where Benji came in.

Dallas groaned as he leaned over the seat infront of him to this girl with this giant dog er wolf thing he really wasn't sure. "Familiars... Am i right?" Dallas joked half laughing to himself before shaking his head with annoyance. Dallas threw his backpack over his shoulder and began walking up towards the bus.

Dallas glanced in each seat of the bus before seeing him sitting in a girls lap. What a little twerp. Dallas kindly slid into the empty seat across from her as he glared at Benjamin. Dallas pushed a hand through his hair to push his hair out his face before he loosely stuck out his hand "I'm sorry. I'm Dallas.. And I see your already..Acquainted with Benjamin." Dallas finished with a small grumble as he looked to Benji who laid on the girl's lap all innocently. This guy. Dallas thought.

Noctis opened one eye to hearing a boy;s voice and looking down the aisle at a fox leaping onto a girl's lap before shutting his eye again, not really caring. Hope looked down with a small laugh as a boy, who she assumed the fox was his familiar, look in each seat before finding the fox and glaring at him. She sometimes had troubles with Noctis obeying, especially if he was angry, pranking, or simply annoyed because he had been woken up, so she could sympathize with the boy.

"Very nice to meet you, Hope and you as well, Noctis! That's so sweet! I have such a soft spot for creatures, my apologies for my excitment." she said, her cheeks turning a rosy read color. She pet Hope's dragon as Noctis curled up in her lap, this was only her second time around a dragon. "Friends?" she perked up and smiled wider if it was even possible, she didn't think she'd get any of those. "Yes! My bad! This is Corvus!" she introduced as the bird cocked his head to the side and studied the new pair with curiousity.

Hope smiled. "I have a soft spot for creatures as well." she said. Hope laughed a little when she saw her grin even wider. "Yes, friends." she said, green eyes sparkling with amusement. She looked at the raven. "Nice to meet you, Corvus." she said with a chuckle. She had never had many friends back home, a small group at the bus stop, and a couple at school that she socialized with a bit, and other groups, but not many that were hugely cohesive when it came to keeping in touch and such, so she probably wouldn't hear from them super often.

Kingfisher tilted her head, still watching the deer fox. He was now running around in circles. She stood and leaped off the chair, setting a brisk trot toward him. King stopped just out of reach of his circle and sat, her head following him. Rose dissolved the mini-tornado and watched Kingfisher for awhile, grinning. She leaned towards her backpack and pulled out a sketchbook. Rose wasn't all that great at doodling, but she enjoyed it immensly. She took a pencil out of her pencilcase and flipped to an empty page. She began doodling Kingfisher watching the deer fox. She kept looking back and forth between her drawn Kingfisher and the real one. Deciding the wings were too big and the tail was too long, she erased them and started over.

Holly: familiar: guppy, an osprey. M: bengi, Dallas (I'll do the time skip next post)

"so that's your name!" She gasped while petting the fox she now knew was called Benjamin, "sorry." She exclaimed holding out her hand for a fist bump "the name is holly. So this is your familiar?" She asked but was way to excited to let him speak.
"I just love foxes, their fluffy ears and little noses. I have always wanted a fox but my parents said no, and they had some great reasons to. Where as to my familiar is an amazing choice, a fox can't fallow me into open water. Mine can fallow me everywhere, while I'm out surfing or out skateboarding he can keep up. But never the less I still love and want a fox." She rambled on and on running one hand through her hair and the other petting Benjamin.

Alora/Female/M: Glitch

"It must be weird. Having parents that don't love you I mean. Couldn't you run away? You wouldn't be homeless for a long time and someone would probably adopt you since your only around 15." She then looked at the animals running around in the bus. "Do you think we'll get off soon? Sooner or later they'll have an accident or something like that. She then switched her focus to everyone else on the bus while thinking, How awkward it must have been for Glitch. She was forced to come here and her parents only kept her for money. They even called her ability a curse. It must have felt horrid.

Dallas looked to Benjamin as he laid on the girl's lap showing no sign of getting up or coming to him. Or like. Any sign of obedience. Stubborn Fox Dallas thought with a roll of his eyes as he turned his attention to the excited girl as he gave her a fist bump back. Usually he'd expect a hand shake or something but maybe he was just old fashioned. He didn't socialize much anyways so like. Who knows. Dallas listened to the girl introduce herself as Holly. Holly like the plant. Dallas thought with a small grin How many times has she probably heard that joke before.

~

Benjamin wiggled his tail as he watched Dallas give him the death glare. Obvious there was nothing Dallas could do. Choke him out? infront of a girl who Loves foxes. Haha yeah. See how that turns out. Benjamin licked the girls face before laying back down on her lap his legs sprawled out as he sniffed at the bird in the cage. Why wasn't he out like all the other familiars? Probably to stop it from misbehaving like Benjamin.

~

Dallas let out a small laugh with a nod "Yeah Benji is my familiar." Dallas said with a sigh as he shook his head. He listened to the girl talk her head off as he leaned into the seat and listened throughly. Let's be honest. He zoned out. Rambling kind of made him go off to his own world. Call it short attention span because he definitely got lost easily. Dallas did however snap back to real life towards the end of her sentence. He gave off a small smile as he looked to the Bird, he wasn't the biggest fan of birds but like whatever. As long as it didnt Touch him he'd be fine.. Probably.

Dallas looked to Holly with a small grin "So your element is Water as well then? I'd assume. Unless you just. Really like water." Dallas asked with curiousity before looking down to Benjamin "Yeah I rescued Benji here from a hunter trap he got stuck in. Didn't really pick him out or anything. He just kinda decided to stick with me after I tried releasing him.. Now he's my little obnoxious pain in the butt Bean." Dallas said lightly as he shot a small look at Benjamin once again before he stretched out on the seat that he supposed was now his new seat.

Glitch: familiar: African wild dog. M:alora, wil.

"it's not to bad. I have a few friends that are assassins, and we train together. To be Entirely honest I love it, it's really fun. Running on rooftops jumping from building to building, just a huge chase. It's like the ultimate game of tag, and haveing the power of blood makes it 10 times more fun." She smiled remembering all the games her and her friends would play, like tag, hide and seek, can you smell a rat, pirates, cops and rivers. But almost always ended with someone in the healers quarters because someone broke something. "Ya I couldn't just run away. I would be hunted down and killed me. So me actually being here and getting permission to come to hawkwing, is insanely rare." Ves jumped over some blond boy with a white streak in his hair, than came sprinting back to glitch hideout under her seat.

holly: familiar: an osprey. M:Dallas

"um ya, but I just love the water. Being raised by two parents who's familiars are booth sea animals. And also being raised in a house where the backyard is the ocean, how can you not?" She stoped playing with her messy hair and opened a water bottle, then proceeded to manipulate the water inside to look like the fax in her lap. Makeing it run around her and the boy. After she showed off her power she put the water back in its bottle. "Well he can stay with me. He seems to like it here, and I don't mind at all." She said hastily.

a huge gate could be seen in the distance, covered in vines and plants. And the huge mountains on either side of the gate, with trees covering them makeing it look like is was just a small rock covered in moss.

Hope peered over the seat in front of her to see the gates looming in the distance, covered in vines, with mountains on either side. She gulped slightly, wondering what it would be like there, and who she'd meet. She had a bit of a track record for making enemies, and rather easily too. She would annoy them until they finally got fed up with her and decided to fight her or prank her, and she'd do the same in return. Usually ended up with her being a troublesome kid in school. She hoped Hawkwing would be a bit different, yet couldn't quell a bit of excitement that rose up in her as she gently stroked Noctis as they approached the school.

Luke sat on the edge of his seat and looked out the windshield to the large gates in the distance, and had butterflies. "We're almost there, Pride." he murmered, stroking the golden eagle's feathers. He looked over to his right to see a girl manipulating water into the form of a small fox. As it ran around, he focused on the fireball in his palm and created a small fire fox to run around with the water fox, just to show off a bit without them having known he was there before. When the girl put the water back in the bottle, he made the fire fox stop and disappear in a tendril of smoke.
