I entered the huge auditorium; Elias tugs me along, my hand in his.

Ever since last night, he boldly held my hand as we stalked through the crowded halls. Students would glance and whisper amongst themselves, but Elias with his stoic expression didn’t seem phased by the gossip. I bet he couldn’t care less about anything anyone had to say.

Professor Oxwell had asked one of the boys to bring me over to the auditorium so I could choose my familiar before the weekend began.

The boys argued amongst themselves, attempting to expand on how they were best suited to escort me. In the end, it came down to a good old game of rock-paper-scissors. To think a group of grown men pounding their fist in the air before allowing fate to decide their path. Elias ended up winning, Ryder and Marcus revealing scissors as his hand remained in rock position. I broke out laughing at their disappointed expressions.

Daniel was still in coma land, sleeping the day away. The poor guy would miss out on all the fun and good food.

Elias kept his promise to feed me every two to three hours, making me snacks to nibble on. I had just finished a homemade chocolate chip cookie, the gooey, rich chocolate having melted in my mouth with each bite, made me moan in delight. Elias looked over his shoulder, smirking at my open display of satisfaction. Whoever didn’t like chocolate chip cookies would have a vendetta with me.

Professor Oxwell emerged from the side exit door opposite of us. He smiled at me, relief blossoming on his face as his eyes softened. I smiled back, lifting my unoccupied hand to wave.

“Glad to see you’re well, Makoto. How are you feeling?” He questioned as he approached us.

“Much better, thank you for your concern Professor Oxwell.” I said bowing lightly. He chuckled, waving his hand in a dismissive gesture.

“Nonsense. We all care about you Makoto, and please, call me Matthew. I only go by the Professor alias during school hours or when we're not alone.” He admitted.

“Then you can call me Mako and don’t bow. No need for such formalities.” I quickly exclaimed sternly. Elias snickered, shaking his head.

“Wait till you –” Matthew started, but I cut him off.

“Nope. I’m making it a new law. No bowing. I don’t care. I can do that right?” I interjected.

My declaration was met with laughter. I’m serious.

“Yes, your highness, whatever you say.” Elias acknowledged.

“Let me show you the familiars we have.” Matthew announced, turning around to walk back through the exit door, myself and Elias following his lead.

We walked into an average sized room, the lights set at dim. Matthew walked over to the black wall on our left, flipping a switch, the lights reaching their maximum output.

I looked around the room, to see a variety of animals. From dogs, to cats, horses and miniature bunnies.

I walked forward, tugging Elias’ hand to follow, taking a closer inspection of each holding unit.

A familiar was an animal who would be appointed to an individual, either by the gods or temporarily for training purposes.
