A new day and a new school was all that was on the mind of a you Ccoa. Fury was padding along the short cut grass breathing in the fresh air and gazing at the blue sky. It was a weekend but she still it was kind of nerve racking for her. The cat like creature broke into a run before landing gracefully on a small stone wall on the other side of the Courtyard. Fury watched as fellow students walked by chatting with each other or running to their dorm and what not. The female starred hopefully at the sky not wanting this splendid day to be ruined by a fateful storm. Fury had a reputation for that, and didn't like it.

Nereida walked into the courtyard, holding her schedule in a death grip. You wouldn't think a 97 year old dragon would be nervous about attending school, but she most assuredly was. She had never been to any sort of school before. Her mother sometimes brought others to tutor her on things, and as a scholarly sort, she had studied much on her own. Which was good, since it meant she could be put in the tenth grade, where at least outwardly, she would appear the same age as her peers.
But she had very little idea of what was going on. There were other magical creatures here, she was told, but also humans, so she must keep her identity hidden in public. That was what had got her into trouble in the first place. Having not much experience in the human world, the hold on her skin was tenuous at best. She had gotten arrested a few days ago when she had started sprouting fins from her face, and wings from her back, causing her to fly to the top of a clock tower to escape. The police had arrested her for trespassing, but she was fairly sure they had really only done it too lock her up somewhere while they figured it out.
But Chimera Academy had rescued her, so it was either here, or go back home. It didn't take long for her to choose. It sounded interesting, actually, but she was still trembling. She had already molted once this morning.
She saw someone...something...no someone, she supposed sitting on a stone wall. It looked rather like one of those furry creatures humans keep as pets..what were they? Cats... But she could tell that it wasn't really a cat, but something more. So it was probably another student. She sat on the wall a few feet away and looked at him/her/it from the corner of her eye. "Hello," she said tentatively.

Fury's ears perked at the sound of a voice. Hr gaze traveled over to what seemed to be a dragon. A smile stretched across her muzzle. "Hello" She meowed a happy tune before continuing. "I'm Fury!" She gave a small excited purr, she seemed to be happy to meet someone. Fury stood on her paws before gracefully walking toward her fellow schoolmate. "I've never met dragon, What's your name?" The cat settled down, wrapping her fluffy tail around her paws.

Well, she was definitely another student. Which, meant, Nereida could only hope, that this courtyard was a safe zone? "I am Nereida," she said, "It is my first day here."
The feeling of the human skin overlying her own was like an itch in her brain she couldn't scratch. She slid down from the wall and let the human skin slide off her like falling water, until she was her right shape and size again. "Ah, much better." Her voice had gone deep and echoing. The sun hurt her eyes so she looked down at the cat-creature below her.
"I've never met any of... whatever you are...either. This is my first time in the human world."

Fury gave laugh of enjoyment. "I'm a Ccoa, I have the appearence of a cat but my kind can trigger a certain type of weather, I for example can cause thunderstorms, those sometimes unwillingly I haven't completely have it undercontrol yet" The cat gave nervous mrow of laughter. "May ask what kind of dragon you are?" The Ccoa sniffed near the creature with her eyes shut for an instant before retrackting. "You're scales are the colors of the ocen and you smell of salt water, I'm you're a Sea Dragon am I correct?" Fury gave her a smile.

"Thunderstorms huh? I enjoy storms." Nereida replied chuckling at the cat's nervousness. "That's right. Are there other dragon here?" She supposed there must be, her mother had intimated that dragons were much more common than humans believed. She just hoped none of them knew her mother. Nereida wouldn't put it past her to come roaring up to the school in a fury, attempting to retrieve her errant offspring. She shivered.
As nice as it was to be in her true form, she felt oddly exposed in the open courtyard and she summoned her skin back, supposing it was good practice in any case. She seemed to collapse in on herself, like an explosion in reverse and suddenly she was again an apparently normal teenager. The sun didn't hurt her eyes quite as much in this form, though it seemed to beat on her pale sensitive skin.

The Ccao watched the dragon turn back into a normal teenage girl. "I believe so, there are many creatures here from all over, at least that's what I am told" The cat paused fro a moment before streching out her front legs wich made her back not as stiff. The student sat back upm normally. "By the way what grade will you be entering?"
