Stop mauling him

He feels the weekend was harder than his time outside the walls with how everyone was trying to drag him everywhere. His only solace was when he finally had enough and only travelled with Cora nearby. He is now heading to school and after some talking Cora agreed to be hidden away but demanded attention later. He is sighing as he feels gaining the ability to speak with these two while great, is so much more of a curse.

He heads in and goes straight to the changing room to avoid anyone asking about whatever they had come up with, as he just needs some downtime. Stepping out he stretches as he looks down and smiles in the pair of swim trunks. Looking around as everyone is silent he blinks since most the time they talked but now none speak.

Xin looks around and moves curious then as she sees him with his thumbs hooked into the top of the shorts pulling them down some as he leans a bit back with his body on full display, she stops too. Looking over he smiles as Tora comes out and reaches down as she comes up and as she stops before him he kisses her softly. She wiggles happily before moving to rest around his neck as she looks around.

Johnny walks out and stares as his mind kicks into overdrive seeing him as he nearly falls. He collects himself then Dante looks over as his long hair dances in the air before cascading over his shoulder. He is smiling as his brilliant blue eyes pull you in and the emerald ring traps you within. He takes a few steps forward as the snake moves and as it looks now towards him his blood is pounding. "Welcome back Muse."

Dante smiles as he walks up and gives him a one armed hug from the side. "Thanks Johnny and how have you been?" Johnny says a few things before he claps his hands and smiles before he motions "Guessing today is a reunion?" as Johnny nods Dante smiles and looks to everyone "Sorry for leaving but I have returned."

Xin is damn near about to start pulling out a weapon to beat people down as everyone is rubbing him and no matter who it is, there should be a limit! "Okay everyone he is not going to leave so try and keep your composure and stop mauling my best friend!"

Johnny comes up after nearly an hour and smiles as Dante looks to him. "Dante you are different than when you left. What happened to cause such marvelous changes?"

Everyone else nods and looks to him as he thinks and looks to them. "Well to be honest until I came back I lived naked in the world since after a few days and many fights and such my clothes were destroyed. I also seemed to have awakened my inner beast and thanks to that I made some close friends."

One of the girls comes up and waves as he looks to her. "What happened to the bigger snake you had upon your arrival?" Dante thinks and moves his hand to the side as Cora is now there. As she looks around he hisses softly and her head moves to him then comes over resting her head in his lap. "How did you do that?!"

Dante smiles and looks up to her as he pets Cora. "I found some lost tech that allows me to move bodies around. When I showed it to some they are not sure who made it but as it stands no copyright, so none can force me to give it up." His lie was actually thought up by Edna and allows him to use the equipment for rescue missions and guarding his snakes.

Everyone is looking to him as he nods and as he shared what Edna had told him with a select few of his friends, he is happy others seem to just accept it. "Does that mean you could sneak a girl back to your dorm?"

Dante looks to her and smiles as he shakes his head. "I live with my squad at our home and while we have our own rooms, I don't think I need to sneak people around." he smiles and looks over "You can ask Xin. She lives there with us and her girlfriend after all."

Xin flares up and looks around as she sighs. "Thanks for throwing me under Dante." he smiles to her and opens an arm as she comes over careful not to startle Cora "However he is telling the truth. So if you wanted to visit you would have to ask but to let people know, his teams leave three days a week and most weekends."

Johnny comes up and puts a hand on his shoulder as he looks to Tora. When she doesn't care he relaxes. "Have you thought of modelling with your new companions?"

Dante looks up and smiles as he nods. "We talked about that and honestly if I asked they would stay with others as long as it is someone I trust." he smiles and rubs Cora as she lifts her head "Cora dear, mind going and snuggling up with Xin a bit?"

She yawns and looks around before hissing softly. "Waking me up to snuggle my sister? She is next to you my mate or are you playing a game with her?" He rubs under her chin as she leans forward and kisses her nose as she sways like the small one had and hisses. She moves and coils some around her and looks over her shoulder "Like this mate?"

Dante smiles nodding as he laughs some and while Xin trusts him, this is a bit much for her. "Try resting your head on her shoulder." The room gasps as the snake does it and Xin looks over seeing his smile, she calms down. She slowly reaches up to rub her hood like he does. "Go with the scales and she is very smooth."

Xin giggles as Cora's tongue flicks over her neck. Dante just smiles and looks up to Johnny as the man nods with a smile. "I am getting inspiration for a new series but can you interact with other beasts or just snakes?" as Dante shrugs he nods "Well with you hunting I am sure you will find out."

Walking to arena two Dante looks at all the people as once more it was a big deal. The sign glows with the message of Luke the grandson of the Principal and Golden Star of the school who is already scouted to be a personal Patroller versus the school's wild child Dante. Dante shakes his head as he is fairly sure none have ever called him a wild child. Oh well, he is here to fight.

Dante walks in smiling as he waves to several as he jogs up and clasps hands with Carter. "Been some time kid and I really hope you can beat this little prick. I tried all I could I promise you, however with your team leaving the combat classes I got some revenge." when Dante asked how he smiles "Isn't enough for two classes so our school doesn't have an advanced class which removes them from competitions and prestige."

Dante is laughing as he nods smiling broadly as Onya grins next to him and he looks forward. One of the faculty steps out wearing a nice dress as most are shocked. She smiles and waves to those around. "To those that don't know I am Ms. Ellis and I teach Chemistry." a lot of guys cheer out "I was asked to be the speaker for this match as it will be a true contest of power and skill."

Dante looks to Carter and motions as Carter sighs. "The principal it seems is playing this up to get some reputation for the school. You have made a name for yourself so beating you would bring attention away from you."

Dante looks up and smiles as he nods his head and laughs. "So with all this workup I guess he will be coming in with all the bells and whistles?" Carter nods and says some of the gear he knows he has as Dante listens and nods "Well I should give a show right?"

Dante walks out while others are now talking calmly and heads straight for her, he smiles and offers his hand as she takes it. "Well aren't you a fine gentleman?" Dante smiles and lifts her hand kissing the back softly as she fans herself with a smile "Oh do behave you little charmer." She is laughing as he leads her out of the arena part to where she is supposed to sit.

Luke is pissed as it was supposed to be his job to escort her and Dante just went out there and stole it. He shakes his head and checks his gear grinning before walking out to the cheers of many. While some know him none dare speak out so the view is he is the perfect man. Waving his hands as he enters the arena he bows and laughs out with a smile.

Luke looks and nods as he smiles and sees several high ranking are here including the representative of his employer and he bows to them again as they nod. "Welcome everyone from students to guests. We have a contest today that many have been begging for and while I feel it may not be to fair to my opponent, I will still give my all."

Onya looks over to Dante and taps his side and smiles up to him as he rubs her head. "If you want my dear, I will beat him for you as you pet me." Dante laughs some and shakes his head as he moves kissing the top of her head "Okay but if I don't get to can you maybe." he looks down as she is fidgeting and tilts her face up as she blushes "Make him beg as a broken pile of destroyed meat?"

Dante blinks a few times as he was thinking a great deal of other requests but yep, not that. He shakes his head and smiles looking to her as he tilts her up and nods. "How could I do anything else if my second wishes it?" she giggles and her eyes seem to sparkle "You are such a battle junkie Onya."
