#1 of Chances


"A trigger was pulled as tears started to fall to the ground. The sound of the shot resonated throughout the world."

A black wolf ran though the hallway of his high school, his book bag bouncing on his back every time he dashes forward. Looking down on his watch he quickened his pace before the final bell for his fourth period rings, 'Less than one minute!'. Bursting through the door just as the bell rang, he feels all eyes on him for a few seconds, along with hearing a few snickers and giggles. Afterwards everyone resumed what they were doing before, except for a few girls who kept their eyes lingering a while longer on the wolf's body.

"Well glad to see you're on time to class, though I don't think the dramatics was necessary" The old goat looked over at the wolf just as the bell rang. "Go to your seat so we can get class started".

The wolf nodded and moved along the rows of desks to his table. Sitting down he pants little more, catching his breath from the race with time earlier. A few of the girls he knew smiled at him seductively, as the few shyer ones blushed and tries to look away. Being the handsome wolf he is; he is used to the attention he gets. With a well-built body, who wouldn't crave for him? And most of all, he has one of the most striking eyes in school, a piercing greenish gray color that draws girls toward him like crazy.

Fifteen minutes into the goat's lecture, Chase already feels his mind starting to wander off. He leans back against his seat, his arms moved up and back as he stretched, his muscles swelled as he flexed drawing a few eyes from the girls. Ignoring the stares he looked out the window, and spots a husky walking towards the main building where the office is located. There is something about that husky that catches his attention. Being a little curious he raised his hand catching the teacher's attention.

"Yes Chase?"

"I need to go to the bathroom." said the wolf, in truth he just wants to see the husky that he saw. Getting the pass from the goat he walks out of the class room, spotting the husky wandering around the hallways he walks slightly faster over to the dog.

"Hey? You lost?" The husky turned towards him as he approached. The wolf now having a closer look at the dog was a little surprised at what he saw. The husky was average, though on the smaller side, only a head smaller; considering the wolf's size. The husky is coated in a common black and white colors found on many huskies, though now days most of them dye their outer fur. Though the wolf was not the best judge on males, could tell he dog was pretty dangerously cute. Wearing a red hoodie and slightly baggie jeans, some of the soft white fur poked out of the collar of the jacket. The huskies eyes seem a little dull and misplaced to the wolf for some reason, this alone unsettled him.

"Uh... Hi. Would you happen to know where the main office is?" The wolf's ears pointed towards the dog, the dog's voice seem to sound young, but could hear some depth in the sound as well.

"Yeah it is the room on the right at the end of this hallway. Why are you here? I don't think I ever seen you around before." Chase looks at the dog up and down starting to think the dog is still in middle school, and just happen to be at the wrong place.

"I just transferred to this high school today" Chase lets out a shocked look as he re-examines the dog from head to toe taking in details, which all seem to point that the dog was only around twelve or thirteen years old.

"And how old are you?" The husky tilted his head to the left slightly giving off a burst of cuteness to the wolf making Chase blush a little. "I am seventeen? Why you ask?" To this the wolf is mind blown, not only does the husky look young but also one year older then the wolf himself.

"N-nothing just wondering"

Following the wolf towards the office, the husky looks around curiously at his surroundings. The wolf looks over his shoulders a few times, feeling the strong urge to hug the pup but resisting. Sensing a little aggression from the wolf the husky backs away a few steps 'Did I do something to anger this wolf?'

"Um... is something wrong?" asked the husky.

"Huh? What you mean?" the wolf snapped out of his thoughts and gave a confused look stopping to face the husky.

'Hrmmm... I guess he isn't aware of the feeling he is giving off...' thought the husky. "Ah it's nothing"

"Now that I think of it, I never asked you for your name."

The husky looks up at the wolf as they started to walk again "It's Fyren. What about you?"

"Chase" the wolf said his pace slow enough to match the husky so they are walking next to each other. Moments later, they arrived at the main office. Entering the door he noticed the usual lady at the front desk, behind her on the left is the door to the principal's office. "Well here it is, just ask the lady there if you have any questions, I better get back to class, I see you later" with that the wolf quickly left, already been away from his supposed 'bathroom break' for too long.

Fyren entered the principal's office to see a greying dog behind a large desk. Seeing that the dog didn't notice him walking in, Fyren lets out an intentional cough, loud enough for the dog to hear. The principal looks up for a second and back down on what he is doing, "Is there something I can help you with?"

"I am transferring to this school, here's the papers I needed to fill out last week", Fyren handed the forms to the principal who is now looking up reading through the papers.

"Hrmmm... some parts are not filled ou-" but before he can finish his sentence the old dog seem to have gone into a trance-like state as he stared into the husky's eyes. Fyren moved forward, a brown colored contact of the tip of his finger on his pad to avoid scratching it with his claw. The husky's eyes are not the dull brown color like before now, but a light blue color that seem to glow eerily.

"I am accepted" the husky whispered for the principal to hear.

"Well I see everything's filled out, you can start coming to school tomorrow", the dog still slightly dazed said as he puts the papers in a folder that went into a drawer.

"Thank you" Fyren replied with a thank you, walking out as he puts his contact back into his eye turning it dull brown again. Five minutes later Fyren walks around the school, looking around in the front building. Noticing a few trophies along the hallways, he walked towards the glass case containing them. As he scanned over the pictures and names in the glass display case he noticed the black wolf that helped him locate the office earlier. "Chase Magzig... he's a looker", the husky's eyes scanned the wolf in his football uniform in the picture, leaning closer to take in the details. As his eyes moved down the wolfs body he felt a tap on his shoulder, turning around he sees a familiar and pleasing sight.

"Chase... Can I help you?"

The wolf smirked; he stood behind the husky as he pointed at the picture with the football team "That's me".

"I noticed..."

"You gunna try a sport here?"

"I am not really interested..." The husky looks back and continued to look over the trophies and pictures. Only now he is standing straighter up not looking too closely at the pictures.

"Well you should try! It's really fun!" the wolf seems to bounce with enthusiasm as the husky faced him.

"I don't think I would enjoy sports as much as you, but I might give it a go" The husky felt his heart soften as he sees the wolf smile at him.

"Cool! I'll show you around the school... that is if you want?"

"I would appreciate it, if you showed me around." The dog smiled at the wolf as he starts to follow. The wolf pointed out the different rooms and classrooms as they passed it. Finally they reached to the back building, which is, directly behind the front building.

"This is the back building; this building is mostly for math and science." The husky nods as he continues to follow the wolf, staring at the broad strong back of the wolf. The wolf not noticing that he is being stripped naked mentally continued his tour around the school. A few minutes later the wolf's tour was interrupted as a bear in an officer's uniform approached asking why the wolf is not in class, "Umm... Bathroom breaks".

Fyren chuckled at the Chase's answer, this action did not go well with the officer, who quickly sent Chase back to his class. As the wolf turned to leave, Fyren removed one of the contact lens from his eye, revealing the glowing blue eye. As he caught the officer's attention he whispered to the bear softly, "He is showing me around". With a dazed look the officer called back the disappointed looking wolf and apologized, telling him to show the husky around. The wolf looked at the bear oddly and nodded. As they continued on their tour leaving the semi dazed bear to wander, the wolf looked over at Fyren.

"How did you do that?"

"Do what?"

"Convince him to let me show you around"

"I asked nicely"

"But he is the strictest deputy in this whole school! He won't even let me go to the water fountain during class!"

The husky sighed "I guess I asked really nicely."

The tour ended as the bell rang loudly signaling the end of the school day. It seems to Fyren that it looks less time to leave the rooms then to enter it for the students.

"Well, it seems I better go to, I still have my stuff at fourth period" The husky nodded as the wolf turned to go. Sighing slightly, the dog walked out of the school, having to dodge through the clump of bodies in the hallways, managing to avoid touching anyone. As his foot paws came down on the cemented ground, he makes his way towards the black Ferrari parked near a tree at the front of the school.

As the door slides up the sleek car, he slowly crawls into the passenger seat. The large Siberian tiger at the driver's seat nodded at Fyren. "Welcome back sir, how was school?"

"I haven't started yet. Did you get the schedule?"

"Yes sir" the tiger replied as he handed over the neatly folded to the husky. Looking over the classes he is taking he looks up out of the tinted windows of the car.

"Drive we are attracting attention" instructed Fyren as he goes back to looking over his classes.

The tiger nodded as he pressed down the gas pedal, the car seem to purr lightly as it drove down the road. "I met someone interesting today." To that the tiger perks his ears.

"Oh? How rare for you to take interest in someone sir"

Fyren chuckle as he thought back to the wolf he met earlier today "He is an interesting character, and quiet the looker too"

"I don't advise you to get too close to regular people sir; the elders won't like it..."

"The elders don't matter... They never like anything related to me anyways"

The tiger's ears twitched as he pulls over into a drive way of a large house, stepping out of the car and walking over to the passenger side he opened the door for Fyren making the dog slightly irritated, "I told you to stop opening every door in sight for me... I am not that helpless"

"I know sir"

Sighing Fyren walked into his new house after unlocking the door. The three story house is about 25 miles away from the school sitting on a land that was supposed to be used for a large hospital, but the hospital was never built and so the land was left untouched. It was only a few weeks ago that a family under the name of Easter brought the land from the government and built a large house on it, not much was known about the Easter family.

Pulling the suitcases from inside the car he walked behind Fyren, "Sir, your room is on the top floor"

Looking around from the front door he sees the usual furniture in the living room in front of him, not much to note there. Yawning, Fyren walked in and went up the stairs to his room on the third floor, followed by a tiger carrying a few large bags as if they weighed nothing. Fyren walked into his large room not bothering checking anything else out before landing on his king sized bed. "Is the bed to your liking sir?"

Fyren sniffed as he adjusted himself on top of the bed, "I been on so many different beds I could sleep in any kind of bed in the world"

The Easter family was a well-known family of assassins in the criminal world. Due to the nature of the job there are not many children born into the family, when almost all the members of the Easter family died, Fyren was left as the only direct bloodline of his own family.

Only after a few minutes the husky is fast asleep, seeing the husky laying on the bed uncovered, the tiger walked over. 'He must have had a very tiring day today, didn't even bother taking in life essence...'. Picking up the sleeping husky he laid the dog down on the bed properly, putting a layer of blanket over Fyren's body. Looking at the husky, the tiger smiled slightly, his paws smoothing over the dog's head. Before leaning in and gave a light peck to the dogs forehead. The husky opening his eyes only slightly whispered to the tiger once before falling back to sleep in seconds "G'night Jinn..."

"Good night sir" The tiger replied as he walked out the room leaving the light on as he walked down stairs to work on his many tasks.


Next morning Fyren woke up at the sound of the first beep of his alarm clock. The husky looks at the wall straight ahead of him for about five minutes before getting out of the bed and walking towards the light switch near the door. Turning the light off with a flick on the switch, he walked to the bathroom that is down the hall outside his room. Finishing his daily routine in around fifteen minutes he walked out of the bathroom half naked, fur damp with only a towel around his waist as his tail wags at the smell of breakfast. Quickly going back into his room to dress himself into his black hoodie and loose jeans he ran down the stairs, stomach feeling empty as he reached the kitchen table. The tiger that was working on his food smiled as he turned toward the dog holding a plate of scrambled eggs, bacon, and hash browns. Setting the plate on the table Fyren immediately started eating.

Setting a glass of milk next to the dog's plate, the tiger sat down on a chair like the husky and started to down his own plate of breakfast. Breakfast went by silently like always, the two, having known each other for a long time now, knows that they each perfer a quiet breakfast to enjoy their food then a talkative one. Finishing up the few bites of food the husky walked out the front door, with the tiger following him. "Today is the first day of school for you sir, did you remember to bring everything?"

Fyren tossed his book bag into the car's trunk "I am pretty sure I have everything..." stepping into the sleek car of the tigers, he sat down on the leather passenger seat.

Giving the husky a nod as he sat down on the driver's seat he started the engine "Very good sir, just call me when you need something".

After a few minutes they arrived at the school, the front of the school is filled with students waiting for the bell to ring. Getting out of the car the noise level seems to increase making the husky's ears twitch. "I will see you in a few hours sir", nodding at the tiger the husky turned and walked towards the mass of people. Squeezing through the small spaces he finally reached the front building, as he entered he feels a hand land on his shoulder. Instinct kicked in. Fyren quickly grabbed the hand on his shoulder and threw the stranger across the hall, the body making a audible thud as it slide across the floor. Fyren gasped as he noticed the familiar wolf sitting on the ground dazed and confused at what just happened. "C-chase?! By the gods! Are you ok? I am soooo sorry!" quickly rushing towards chase he helped the wolf stand up.

"What... What the heck was that?" The wolf looked down at Fyren, finally getting a little of his balance back. Seeing the dog so small, much smaller than the wolf, Chase could not understand how he was thrown across the hall.

"I was just surprised, you scared me back there!"

"You should be the one scaring if you could throw me like that ha ha..."

After a few minutes the husky helped the wolf against a wall, checking over Chase if he had any serious injuries, thankfully there isn't. 'Thank the gods that he isn't too badly hurt. Then again... I don't expect him to be hurt' Fyren thought as he looks at the wolf's muscles. The bell rang loudly making the husky lower his ears, "Well it seems like class is about to start, do you know what classes you're having?".

Fyren nodded as he looked down at his schedule "Yes, thanks to your tour yesterday, I think I know where I am going to go now."

"Ok good, well I will see you later I guess." The husky nodded as he watched the wolf walk off, though still wobbly he seems to be fine.

Walking down the hallway to his class room, he quickly found his room, since the room numbers go up as you walk further into the school. Turning the knob of the door, he entered the room. A few eyes turned towards him, making the husky squirm. "Ah so you're transfer, it's good to have you Fyren." the husky nodded as a friendly looking fox walked over. "I am Mr. Kindle, your math teacher this semester. Class is starting so just take a seat next to Jordan over there, you see that tiger over there?"

Looking at where the fox is pointing at he knew where he is going to sit immediately. For one there was only one tiger in the room, and two, the tiger was huge. Not huge as in fat, but muscled. 'He must work out... a lot...' walking over to the seat next to Jordan, he quickly sat down and began taking out his notebook. Looking over at the tiger, he perks his ears up "Hi"

The tiger looked at the source of the voice, gruffly he replied hi back. To this the husky lowered his ears 'Did I do something to make him mad?' Jordan blushes a little under his fur as he looked down at Fyren, who has his ears down looking pitifully up at him.

"I mean... err, hello..." The dog held his hand out towards the tiger. "My name is Fyren, want to be friends?" the husky smiled brightly at the tiger making the feline smile himself. "Sure, I'm Jordan." The tiger lightly grabbed dogs hand lightly and shook, not really hard. 'Wow he might look big but he is quite gentle'. The tiger feels his heart melt as he shook the husky's paw. After that class went on with the husky and tiger exchanging a few words whenever they can.
