	Autumn stood before the enormous looming gates of what was soon to be her school. She couldn’t believe she accepted such an outrageous contract like the one she did in order to get here. Though it did not matter whether or not she believed the terms and conditions she had to sign, rather she really didn’t really care where she went all or what she did, of course as long as she wasn't selling herself. Autumn let out a sigh, according to the letter that she received she was supposed to meet someone at the gate that was suppose to explain everything to her. 
	“Eh….what you sighing for? Shouldn’t you be excited to attend our school?” came a voice from behind Autumn.
	Turning around she is confronted with the sight of a boy with lion ears and a lion tail. The lion boys tail was moving quite realistically. “So this is ethier cosplay to mess with me or those terms and conditions in that contract might actually be true…”Autumn thought to herself as she stared intensely at the boy.
	“Hahaha looks like she is going to bore a hole in you, with that kind of intense stare, Yuki,” giggled a girl that had what looked like dog or wolf ears and tail.
	“She probably fell in love with my majesticness at first sight don’t you think Nonomi,” Yuki gloats. 
	“Sorry but only in you best dream and on of my worst nightmares, and I believe I showed up at the wrong school gate,” snarled Autumn as she started to turn around but was stopped.
	“Just where do you think you are going little black bunny? You know you are at the right school because from what I was told you were the first to thoroughly read the contract and have a silly requirement. Tell what is so important that you had to request to be a black rabbit instead of a white rabbit,” the panther boy criticizes.
	Nonomi jumped excitedly seeing the panther boy then asks,” what took you so long Alex, and is she really going to be a black rabbit? WOW! That's so strange but exciting don’t you think Yuki?”
	Alex pulls out a pair of black bunny ears and tail and slams them down upon autumns head. They seems to magically merge with her body and look natural. Alex preceded by grabbing her by the arm and stating, “Don’t even answer her Yuki, we don’t have time. As for you black bunny, those ears and tail will hide your human smell from the other students. You all ready been told what you are here for but I’m going to remind you just in case you have a pea for a brian and forgot. Our school that we are about to walk into is a beast school, where beast learn everyday knowledge along with learning how to work along with humans. Right now if you were to walk in there without the bunny gear you would be eaten in a second because when I say you will help them learn how to work with humans, I mean you going to help them learn to control their hunger. Got it?
	“So sorry to disappoint you but I do not have a pea for a brain and I already know what I'm here for along with the dangers, no need to tell me any more than once unless I ask. As for my color choice……..well you will just have to find out on you own,” grumbled Autumn as Alex dragged her along into the school.
	They continued to walk along the school corridors with the other two following behind. Autumn stayed silent, not arguing or questioning a thing just going along with what was happening. She looked around as they walked and confirmed her suspicions that this was a school meant for the rich, putting her more out of place than she already was. After walking down and turning what  seemed to be quite a few halls they came to a stop. When she looked, they were standing before a door that looked to be a class room. Alex grabbed the handle and pulled it open, letting go of her hand he walks in with Yuki and Nonomi right behind.
	“We brought the new student, we will take our seats now,” briefly stated Alex.
Autumn walked in closing the door behind her, paying no mind to the stares of the beast students that were to be her classmates and she turned to her teacher with a greeting, “Good evening, I’m Autumn as I’m sure you have been informed.”
	After giving her a pitiful look over the teacher turns to the class and announces,”Class as you can see today we have a new student with us. Her name is Autumn, she is from the rabbit race as you can well tell, and she is the second daughter. Please treat her well,” he turned to Autumn,” if you have anything you would like to say to the class as feel free to do so if not you may sit down in a empty seat.”
	Autumn started to make her way to the empty seat that was in the back and coincidentally by the three people she had met not long ago when the rest of the class started to buzz,”A black rabbit strange.” “I wonder if black bunnies are tasty.” “Huh, shouldn’t they taste the same as a white.”
	“STUDENTS! What do you think yo-..” the teacher started up but Autumn cut him off, “No worries Sensei, I guess I will say something now,” she giggled. “If you want to eat me you can go right ahead and try I dare you, though I will give you a warning. In my country since I am the only black rabbit I am considered bad luck. My family wanted to kill me off but anyone who tried to eat me would suddenly get sick or something else. So after that my family tried to hire mercenaries to kill me for money who weren’t superstitious or didn’t know. But thanks to that when people tried to kill me every day or every other day, I became pretty good at defending by self especially for a rabbit. So if you not afraid of possibly being cursed, then I dare you to come through me, if you not interested in either than I ask to be left alone,” Autumn declared with a tone that sent chills through most of the students.
	Autumn continued to walk to her seat and sat down, the room had now gone silent. The teacher took no mind to what was said and decide it was best to go on with the lesson. “Um Alex could you please let Autumn copy you notes for up to now.”
	“Why me? Can’t she copy off of Yuki or Nonomi or someone else,” Alex grumbled
	“No, I wish for her to copy off of your notes since you take the best notes and your notes are easy for others to understand. Yuki’s notes are too messy and Nonomi's are too brief. So just quit your complaining and let me continue with class,” the teacher proclaimed with a irked tone.
	The teacher then went on with the lesson, after a few hours the bell rang. Yuki grabbed Autumns arm and dragged her along no saying anything. He didn’t have to, for her to know that he was taking her lunch, she would have to be stupid to not know that. When they entered the cafeteria Autumn was in for a shock. She understood this was a beast school but she never thought it would be like this. On the lunch tables for each group of friends that had gotten their food their was a heap of meat stacked high and they were just digging into to it like they had been starved for weeks. Autumn turned to Yuki who was picking from the menu and asked,”Is it always like this?”
	Yuki turned around with his tray and and a piece of chicken in his mouth,”...I dount Unndeerskuntd wwhaht yya (I don't understand what you)………..mean. Of course it's always like this how else would it be.”
	Rather than being concerned with his answer to her question, Autumn couldn’t get over how he sounded when he talked with his mouth full and started to burst out laughing as they sat down at the table.
	“ I get the feeling you laughing at me and I don’t know why, but you know what? I don’t really care because what I did to make you laugh like that I feel honored since you don't have that gloomy face anymore,” beamed Yuki.
	“Hmm…your right Yuki this is the first time is seen her smile, not counting the creepy one that she made in class that scared everyone,” chipped in Nonomi.
	Rather than being happy and smiling more when she heard Yukis and Nonomis comment, Autumn’s smile faded. She lowered her head and began to nag herself in her head, “how could I let my guard down like that. You should know better than this Autumn for God's sake, your not aloud to have friends. You can only just get along like acquaintances would nothing more, only till you time is up here.”
	Yuki and Nonomi became confused. They had only complimented her yet she was looking dark again. Alex noticing his friends getting upset since Autumn didn’t reply or become more cheerful by their attempts to be friendly, this irritate him tremendously. 
	“Is there a problem with them liking it when you smile or something. They are over here trying to befriend you, yet you suddenly become even more dreary. Is being friends with them so below you,” Alex snapped at Autumn.
	“NOO! You got that part there wrong. I just….let’s just say I can’t have friends, as much as would like to be their friends and I would also like to still get along,” she tried to explain.
	“What kind of bullshit are you spitting! If you really just hate being a friend with a beast just say so, rather than hurting their feelings. I could care less since I don’t like you to begin with but they are trying their best,” Alex yelled, now grabbing the surrounding tables attention.
	This time Autumn did not retaliate back, she simply stood up, looked at Yuki and Nonomi and apologized with a smile. She then turned on her feet and left the cafeteria only glancing at Alex for a split second. Alex was expecting a little more defense from someone like her, not a retreat. But it didn’t matter to him he didn’t like her anyway or so he thought. 
When lunch ended and they went on with the rest of their class, they noticed Autumn was not in a single one. The teacher even had someone go to the office and call for her on the overhead but she never came. Yuki and Nonomi were now giving him dirty looks all through class until the end. When class finished his punishment still was not done the teacher asked for the three of them to stay after class.
“So.. Does anyone here out of the three of you know where Autumn is and why she would go off and not come back,” the teacher asked directing his glare at Alex. The teacher knew Alex as one to have a short temper.

It is very weird, indeed. You are taking talking animals, and transforming them into human type creatures!
