Karuma was busy trying to distract himself from the inescapable reality of it all, frantically thumbing through his social media apps, as if anything happening in this world would matter anymore after his plane ride. [b]"Hah, judging by his knee wagging, I'd guess he's far from excited babe."[/b] A male voice teased him from the back seat of the drivers side. Finally Karuma breathed a heavy comment, [color=008B8B][b]"You got that right. I'm on pins and needles here, man. I just hope there's at least a skate park or something near this new school."[/b][/color] He dropped his phone into his lap and glanced back at the hopeful faces of his one and only friend from public school, [url=https://puu.sh/ClSoV/044e490d3b.jpg]Dae-Ho[/url], and his friends girlfriend [url=https://puu.sh/ClR2y/bdd3d51801.jpg]Jae Hwa[/url]. Karuma and Dae had been friends since middle school, they got along great, had the same video game and anime interests, and were both skaters. The only thing Dae didn't know about Karuma is that he's a werewolf. Dae and Jae hooked up sometime during middle school grad, moving into high school freshman. They've always complimented each other too, just like their names. [color=008B8B][b]"Jae, Dae."[/b][/color] Karuma began, an unfamiliar heart ache creeping into his chest that wasn't there a minute ago. [color=008B8B][b]"I'm really going to miss you guys. You've helped me through some tough times.. I wont forget you two, even if we never meet again."[/b][/color] Dae-Ho's eye's glossed over a bit from Karuma's words, before he could say anything in response their driver [url=https://puu.sh/ClSqi/2dbcb2f85f.jpg]Cole[/url], an older gentleman whom Karuma introduced to his friends as a friend of his foster dad; but was actually a pack member who didn't think too fondly of him, barked [b]"I'm done finding a parking space, and I've got things to do, can you three wrap this up outside? The trunk is popped."[/b] On queue Dae quickly opened his car door and got out, Jae following suit and apologetically saying [b]"Oh, of course, sorry. We wouldn't want to make Karu late for his flight."[/b] before both their doors closed in unison. Heaving a sigh and moving to open his door Karuma was caught off guard by Cole's voice [b]"For what its worth..."[/b] He paused and nearly whispered the remainder, [b]"Good luck, [i]you'll need it.[/i]"[/b] Karuma shrugged off the obviously venomous comment with a small smile and a hearty [color=008B8B][b]"Thanks for the ride Cole. See my friends home safely, kay?"[/b][/color] Finishing his previous motion of breaking free from the disapproving aura emanating off of Cole and stretching in the sun. To Karuma's surprise Dae had already set his suitcase and duffel bag on the curb for him, his skateboard deck being held in the soft grasp of Jae Hwa. Karuma gave them both one last look over, the weight on his chest from before growing in size. As if sensing his sadness, Dae perked up [b]"Hey man, don't worry I'm sure they'll be some railings or an old pool for you to shred.."[/b] Dae was fighting against his own weighted heart, but he continued on, offering a hand to the sky in typical high five fashion. [b]"Just don't forget to keep in touch, this isn't 'goodbye', its 'see you later'!"[/b] Karuma couldn't help but crack a smile, look at the both of them, acting like Main Protagonists. Karuma's hand rose to meet Dae's and clasp together in a brotherly hand hold. [color=008B8B][b]"Yeah, count on it!"[/b][/color] Karuma's smile seeming brighter in the sunlight as their hands separated, Dae attempting to discreetly wipe away tears. Karuma draped his duffel bag over his shoulder, and took his rolling suitcases handle in preparation, then Jae approached Karuma, holding out his skateboard deck with a sad expression shading her usual perky face. Karuma couldn't help but chuckle to himself as he received the skateboard deck from her clutches, [color=008B8B][b]"Not you too, Jae.. I'll cry too you know."[/b][/color] As if his lighthearted joking and general way of being was too much for her to handle, she didn't reply, and tears began to flow down her cheeks uncontrollably. She clutched tightly onto Dae as he patted her head softly. [b]"You.. Be safe out there man."[/b] Dae's voice choked. Delivering one final smile to the both of them before quickly dragging his belongings off into the terminal with him, Karuma whispered [color=008B8B][b]"You too.."[/b][/color] with a strained heart. [hr] Plane rides weren't the worst part of travel. In Karuma's opinion, sitting in a transit bus traveling across country is real hell. Plane's are high class luxury, but then again maybe thats why people aren't used to it. Upon arrival Karuma was filtered into a van amongst a few other wolf smelling teenagers. Luckily he had plenty of leg room, and surprisingly good service, he spent the time catching up on a favorite anime of his until they neared their destination. A stern and official sounding voice briefed him and his apparent classmates on Alpha Prep and what is to be expected of them while here. Glancing out of the window Karuma noticed a few interesting students piling out of the van ahead of his, some Wolves were even present to greet them, the new blood. His van was next, and the driver confirmed this by barking a command to the flustered and anxious group. [b]"Everyone out!"[/b] Karuma was about the third or second out of the van, immediately breaking into a much needed stretch. He pondered to himself if all of the drivers were that rude and drill sergeant feeling. Karuma caught the last bit of the Councilman Corbyn's introduction speech, and quickly perked up, his curiosity insatiable. [color=008B8B][b]"Uhh, yeah chief, Can you skateboard on campus?"[/b][/color] he asked, holding up the printed bottom of his [url=https://puu.sh/ClAXX/be928ed1a9.jpg]skateboard deck[/url], still wrapped in a see through protective wrap from the plane ride. His ocean blue eyes already scanning the extravagant school grounds for possible hot spots for shredding.
