“Yeah, that sounds really great!” He nodded enthusiastically, then widened his eyes. “Really? It’s so pretty, though. Maybe they’re worried about getting them dirty or something…”

“I’m Alfredo, Anna! I guess if you shortened my name you’d get ‘Alfred’, huh.” He rocked back and forth on his feet, thinking. “So, you probably know the school better than I do, because I’m actually really new. Is there anywhere cool we could go?”

“He is? I guess I’ll have to stay away from him, then. I’m not very good with mean people…” Alfredo bit his lip nervously at the thought.

A wolf. A wolf?! Alfredo shrunk back in surprise – and concern. “Oh, ahaha, well, I guess I could! I haven’t ever… petted a wolf though, no. Or a dog. Dogs and wolves are really big. And they have a lot of teeth, and they like to put them into rabbits sometimes and then eat them, so I – I don’t know. I guess I’m a little bigger now, so maybe I’d survive, but… maybe. Maybe we can do that.”

He swayed back and forth. “Or maybe we could do something less dangerous, ahahah! Actually, the school gave me a little money to do stuff with. Apparently I’ll be getting a bit of a – an allowance. Just a bit. I don’t really understand money, so the school people told me I should practice!” He put his hand into his pocket and pulled out a couple of bills. It looked like they came to about fifty dollars. “So maybe we can go buy stuff… somewhere?”

Poking her tongue out in thought, Annaleise was a little disappointed for a request to do something less bold. She only knew about a couple shops, and even then she hadn't gone very often ... "Oh! Do you like pets? I met the pet shop man. He's very nice, he helps me turn into a dragon. If you like sweets, there's a caffee somewhere!" She had heard the elder students excitedly gossiping about some strange store called a caffee, and had immediately wanted to go and see the café for herself.

As big as a horse! And with a jaw as wide as Anna’s arms – or was that just the size of one tooth?! Just how big of a horse was Anna comparing this wolf to?!

Now he didn’t just have monster wolves to worry about, but monster horses too, big and willing to trample everything in their sight… “O-oh, that really is neat. Wow… so you’re going to get really big too… but you’re not going to eat me, right? Ahaha.”

“Pets, huh…” He wasn’t sure about that one. He wasn’t sure what he’d felt towards the other rabbits at his competitions had been “like”. Maybe “rivalry”. “Oh, but I do like sweets! Maybe we can go to the caffee together and I can try to get you something! I don’t really know how to buy stuff, but I bet you could help me out, huh?”

“…Oh, okay!” And Alfredo brightened up again. Now he had a little protector! Who would become a big protector one day. He wondered how quickly little human girls grew up – or little dragon girls, as it were. “Then we’ll both be safe! I hope you grow up soon.”

The city? Alfredo wasn’t sure what the city was, but… “Yeah, I’m big! I bet we can find it if we’re careful.” He held onto her hand almost a bit nervously, but ready to head out. “You’ll have to lead the way a little, I’m not sure where everything is – but if there’s anything scary I’ll help you find somewhere to hide, okay?”

“Okay, so we look for lots of people, and also a beach! That sounds exciting.” He had no idea what a beach was, either!

“Wh-whoooa, um – setting people on fire might be a bit much! But we’ll count on each other, okay? I’m sure with the two of us we can beat anything!” He wasn’t quite as sure as he sounded, but something about Anna made him want to sound cool in front of her.

He followed eagerly behind the younger girl. “Yeah, it’s to the caffee first. I’m all ready to head out, so let’s go!”
