	Aki laid happily prone on the ground, his body now only somewhat struggling to keep his head up to read the fine copy of [i]'A Song Of Ice and Fire'[/i] laid out in front of him. The book was getting quite good for the bookworm right about then, only further allowing him to accept his failure in whatever event was taking place in the school now. His teammates had most certainly left without him, both Su-Mi and Ken being nowhere in sight. Anyhow, Aki was becoming deeply ingrained in his fantastic novel, so he didn't really care for the consequences of impeding his team. The book was becoming so well worded, that he could practically hear the growling of the wolves depicted in it. Fantastic!

	The schoolboy's aching body spun around to confront the shadowy figures lunging towards his location. The wolves' charcoal-colored fur and eyes were practically the same shade as the shadows cast across the lengthy, windowed hallway: guess this was what Aki got for sleeping on the job. Adrenaline pumped through the plain boy's veins, helping him to finally get to his sore feet once more. These charging wolves were surprisingly terrifying for assistant-teacher's Isshen's standards, but the bookworm would give him kudos later: nothing like a good threat to get a hero into action, especially that in wolf-from (he never knew sensei could do morph his clones like that). Turning on his neon barrier, Aki grappled the sprinting battalion of shadow head-on. The wolves were indeed feisty manifestations, their mouths snapping at the student as he raised them by their necks above the ground, arms snugly gripping their fluffy collars. The problems that now arose were [b]1)[/b] the weight of the wolves in Aki's arms and [b]2)[/b] the weight of Aki's legs. With bones aching and animals squirming, the bookworm was nigh immobile unless he wanted to risk spilling his cargo. [color=8882be][i]"Ken, Su-Mi, if you're there, come back. I have a predicament on my hands"[/i][/color], the schoolboy shouted, now hoping that his teammates were not [i]too[/i] far-away, unlike what he had been previously worried about a minute ago. Waiting for his friends to come running back, Aki simply stared down into the black complexion of the wolves gathered around him. He could most definitely draw them in all their frightful, shadowy glory later.

	Aki quickly set down one of the wolves to reach into his back pocket, bringing out the school leaflet he had used the first day. The gnawing of his shielded ankle by the one stray wolf, as well as the squirming of the other held two, made it hard for the bookworm to find the passage he was looking for, but he soon discerned it regardless.
[color=8882be][i]"Isshin Ueda, Assistant Teacher: Power: the creation of multiple [u]transparent[/u] clones of himself"[/i][/color], Aki read aloud. How had he forgotten that crucial fact? He threw the leaflet into his back pocket again quickly, before bending down to pick up the stray wol- [i]it was gone[/i]. What were these shadow wolves, and how had one disappeared so easily?! Why was this all happening so suddenly? Where had these beasts come from? They were obviously not one of the school staffs' creation, so why were they here? Aki did not have the logical, physical, nor mental stability to answer any of these questions. If only someone had informed him, or even [i]woke him up[/i], before any of these strange happenings occurred, Aki could've been in a much more prepared state of mind and body for his ordeals. It was quite stressful sifting through all this sudden information at once, you know. All the teen could infer momentarily, from instinct alone, mind you, was that something wrong, and perhaps even [color=ed1c24][b]villainous[/b][/color], was taking place at Komei Academy. [color=8882be][i]"Come on guys, the situation just got a whole lot more dangerous! Hurry it up!"[/i][/color], the school boy urged his fellow students from down the hall. Aki never liked relying on gut-instinct alone, never.
