Welcome to Gaia! ::

The truck pulled to a stop in front of the school gate, looking almost too big for the path it was on. Roch let out a sigh as he stepped forward, heading for the driver side door as the window rolled down. "Yo," Bruno said. "You ready for this?"

"If I say no, will I get out of it?" Roch asked him, earning a rough laugh right in his face. The big werewolf reached into the cab, disappearing for a moment before holding out a wolf cub to the punk. "Jesse," he said as he dropped the cub into Roch's arms. A second one followed, "James," he said. "You only have them for an hour--maybe a bit longer if there's traffic," the werewolf said. "Try not to die," he added, rolling up the window and driving away.

Roch stood there blankly, holding two pups that were trying to fight--then he yelped as one of them bit his forearm. "Yo! No biting!" he complained. The wolf pups looked up at him, tails wagging happily--and both of them bit him again.

"They're werewolf pups, Danny--Jesse, would you PLEASE stop bitin me--they ain't pets," Roch said. "I'm scarelingsitting for an hour or so--NOT THE FINGERS!" he yelped as the pup in question got to his fingers. "Jesse has the spot over his eye, James is the one with the gray paws," he said, prying his finger free--only to have Jesse jump from his arms and start racing away.

"Don't let him get free," Roch told Danny. James looked up at Danny, tongue lolling happily--and licked her bikini clad boob.

"Let's just get them to my room," Roch said, snorting and juggling James in his arms to get a better hold on the squirmy guy. "I'll plop them down in front of the screevee, we'll be fine." He hoped.

James and Jesse on the other hand, had a different idea. This was a brand new place--there was SO MUCH TO SMELL!! The pups, thinking as one, squirmed free of the arms holding them and raced off--in opposite directions.

"Jaaaackkkk, Bruno's gonna KILL me!!" Roch yelped, chasing after the one that went right.

Jesse headed straight for a group of students carrying trays of food so they could eat outside or something. There was a lot of squealing, several platters dropped, and even more tossed into the air, the food falling on the students' heads. Jesse LOVED it. He had a hamburger in his mouth as soon as he squirmed out from under one rather large student, and was gobbling it down even as he raced away.

"JESSE!!" Roch bellowed. "Wasting food ain't RIGHT!!"

Yes, that was his biggest issue with what had happened to the poor students.

Jesse had found the ghoul's bathroom. The cooing sounds of ghouls enthusing over the puppy had Roch banging his forehead on the wall next to it. "Hey!!" he called through the door. "Can I get my werepup back? I'm supposed to be sitting!" he yelled.

"NO!! WE'RE CHANGING!!"

"I don't mind!" Roch called back--only to groan as something hit the door loudly. "Fine, I can wait. You DO realize he's a boil, though, don't you?"

The pup was shoved out the door, skidding on his butt and looking quite satisfied with life. Roch grabbed him before he could run and started for the reaper dorms, arms full of squirming, nipping puppy.

"Hey now, no name callin," Roch said. "This goofball found his way into the ghoul's locker room," he added, shifting Jesse into his other arm and digging out his keys to unlock his room. He totally ignored the fact that he'd just called Jesse a name, too.

"How many pairs of underwear did you get to see, boil?" he asked the still happy looking puppy as he headed in. The only answer he got was a series of barks-- "That many?" Roch asked. "That's impressive."

Jesse jumped right into the chasing game, careening around the room and--well, there wasn't much to knock down, so he just bumped into things a lot. Taking advantage of it, Roch closed the door behind him and went to the kitchen to pull out a couple of frozen pizzas. He was supposed to feed the kids dinner, too, right? Either way, full pups were sleepy pups. He started up his oven and went to work tossing more stuff onto the pizzas, letting Danny do the play part.

Yeah, he could do this, he figured. It was a good thing Danny had the mindset of a little kid and a ton of stamina.

He looked around. He thanked Jack that he had pushed the fish tank against the wall earlier, so it hadn't been knocked over--the poor pups woulda been eaten. "Okay, start cleanin' up otherwise I ain't feedin' ANY of you," he said. "I'll eat both pizzas myself." And scariest thing to the pups, he sounded serious.

As one the two turned, looking pleadingly at Danny. "He won't, will he?" Jesse asked pathetically.
