Thread: After the Change (HaloHeroWolf118, DawnShadows)

RE After the Change Dylan slowly opened his eyes as his alarm went off, reaching out with a furred otter hand to shut it off. He sat up, rubbing at his eyes, the green orbs adjusting to the light in the room. He got up and began getting ready for school, brushing the bit of longer brown fur that hung in his eyes, scrubbing at his teeth, and spraying deodorant on him since he no longer had armpits. He ran his sleeked hands over his fur, making sure his whiskers were straight before putting on some skinny jeans and a loose t shirt. Once ready he grabbed his bag and made his way to the front of the house, only to find his sister was not awake. Quietly he made his way to her room, poking at her sleeping mound gently. Two beige ears popped out from the sheets that hid her sleeping form, Yes Dylan? Her words were heavy with sleep, her body curling tighter in on itself, trying to hold on to what dreams were still tangible. I'm going to be late to school... his voice trailed off, even though he was seventeen he still didn't have his license. At this Annabelle sat up, her German Shepherd form becoming evident as the sheet slipped down. She barely remembered to cling to it so she wouldn't be exposed to her brother, they didn't wear clothes as they slept. Not wanting to risk it Dylan turned his back to her, his long tail brushing against the carpet. Annabelle looked at the clock, Oh ! Alright, I'll be out in five! She jumped out of bed just as Dylan made his way out, she looked around frantically. Not having enough time to get properly ready she put her under garments roughly, next finding a pair of blue jean shorts and after sniffing the fabric she put on a Sublime loose shirt. Brushing her teeth and fur quickly and spraying perfume on she rushed out of her room, grabbing a pair of sneakers on the way. Dylan was waiting by the door and she tossed him the keys so he could get the car ready while she hobbled, trying to get her shoes on. Annabelle and Dylan had both been infected by the virus while they were camping with their parents. Dylan had been by the lake, near a family of beavers while Annabelle had been playing with the family dog when they started showing signs. Out of fear, their parents sent them to live in an apartment they would pay for, their children living there rent free. But they weren't their children any more, the most communication they got was a Christmas cared signed with 'From' instead of 'Love'. But that didn't matter, Dylan was now in his Junior year of high school and Annabelle was currently working at an herb store, having studied botany in college. Not much cash was coming in with the rent free apartment, and it showed as they drove in a beat up old car that was falling apart. They had joked that the thing would give out by next Spring, but it seemed like it's clock ended now. Dylan looked at the time before jumping out of the car, I'm sorry sis, I would love to help but I'm already late. I wish you luck! He said as he took off running down the street, school only a block away. Grumbling to herself, Annabelle got out of the car and glared at it before looking around for any helpful face. Finding none in the passing humans she sighed but spotted a mechanic shop right across the road. Timing her adventure she managed to push the car the short distance to the opened garage of the place, putting her hands on her knees and taking a few deep breaths before calling out. She stood up, Will someone please come assist me before I scrap this piece of junk myself?! Dylan made it to class just as the bell rang, sitting in the seat nearest the door. He took a deep breath before rummaging through his pack and pulling out some material he had to study for the coming test in his history class. He ran a hand through his hair, moving it from his bright green eyes as he gave his full attention to the paper.
