  "writing": "Monday October 21, 2030\n\n\t“Hey Onai! Come on bro!” Marlin, a Horned Lizard, said walking up to Onai’s locker.\n\t“Where we going?” Onai asked.\n\t“Skipping the start of class and smoke some weed,” Marlin said.\n\t“I don’t know man. I’m already in enough trouble and getting caught smoking weed would probably send me to Juvi,” Onai explained.\n\t“Ah quit being a pussy. It’ll take like ten minutes max. You can say you were taking a shit or something,” he replied.\n\t“Uh. I… Uh, okay. Let’s go,” Onai said and nervously smiled.\n\n\tOnai and Marlin have been friends for the past four or five years. They mainly would hang out at school with other mutual friends. Marlin has been at the Wolfe house a few times over those years and Onai over at Marlin’s house a few times as well. They don’t have a whole lot in common, but gaming is one common thing. Marlin loves console games whereas Onai prefers computer gaming. The times that Marlin visited Onai they mainly stayed outside swimming and later in the evening playing games together in the media room, usually with Marlin winning.\n\n\tA couple of minutes later, four teenagers stood out behind a small building on the school grounds. A tall, muscular jock tiger lit up the joint, took a hit and passed it to another jock, a lion. Both jocks were varsity football players in the twelfth grade. The lion took a large hit and held it for a moment before exhaling then taking another hit. He then passed it to Marlin. Marlin did the same and passed it to Onai. Onai looked at it for a moment unsure if he should. He looked over at his friend who urged him to go on and take a hit. The tiger looked over at the wolf.\n\t“Didn’t know you were so cool Wolfe. I figured you were just like your sister, a stuck up rich princess,” the tiger said.\n\t“She’s not stuck up, just has a pup to care for,” he replied.\n\t“Either way, you’re wasting good weed. Take a hit or pass it back bro,” the lion said. Onai exhaled then took a huge hit. A hit far too big for his first time. He grabbed his chest and started coughing. The tiger walked over and slammed his paw on Onai’s back a few times while he was leaning over, his paws resting against his upper legs.\n\t“Damn, Wolfe, easy bro,” he said taking the joint.\n\t“Uh [i]~cough~[/i] ye… yeah,” he replied. After another thirty seconds of passing it around it was back in Onai’s fingers.\n\t“Oh what the hell?” Onai said and took another hit, a smaller one this time. He coughed a few times again.\n\t“Who’s out here?” A voice said from around a corner.\n\t“Oh shit! You’re all on your own,” the tiger said then rushed off with the lion following behind him. Marlin was right behind them. Onai was confused at what was going on, he had not heard the voice.\n\t“What the hell?” He yelled out at the three. Just as he finished yelling at them a paw came down on his shoulder and he was spun around. His eyes widened at the buffalo in front of him.\n\t“M-Mr. Gunnderson,” Onai stuttered out.\n\t“What do we have here?” Gunnderson said.\n\t“N-nothing. I was just taking a long way to class. Needed fresh air,” Onai said.\n\t“Fresh air huh?” Gunnderson said taking the still burning joint from Onai.\n\t“Oooooh shit,” Onai said just realizing how much trouble he was in now. He looked over his shoulder to see no one there, his friend abandoned him and so did the two jocks. He looked back at the teacher extinguishing the joint on the wall.\n\t“Come on,” Gunnderson said taking hold onto the back of Onai’s school uniform collar.\n\n\tThe buffalo escorted Onai into the school, down the long main hallway and into the office. He walked him over to a chair.\n\t“Sit. Stay. Don’t move!” Gunnderson said. Onai nodded while his head was lowered, not even daring to look up.\n\n\tGunnderson walked up to the secretary and asked for the principal, who walked out just thirty seconds later. Gunnderson handed the principal the half smoked joint and explained where he found Onai at and mentioned there were others but they all ran off before he could get to them.\n\n\t“Come with me Mr. Wolfe,” Principal Le Roux stated. Onai looked up at the tall brown bear and gulped.\n\t“Don’t make me repeat myself,” Le Roux said. Onai nodded, stood up and started walking. He walked to the door that lead into a blue carpeted hallway then into the principal’s office. There were six other rooms in that hallway, the vice principal’s office, a text book storage room and a few other offices used by various faculty.\n\n\t“Sit down Mr. Wolfe,” Le Roux said then sat down at his computer. He clicked the mouse a few times and typed on the keyboard. Onai assumed, correctly, that it was his name being typed. He gulped as he pressed the speaker phone then dialed a number. His house phone number.\n\t“Principal Le Roux, please. Please, don’t call my parents. This is the first time I’ve been in trouble. Please, let me off with a warning. Please?” Onai begged.\n\t“We have zero tolerance for drugs in our school. You know that Mr. Wolfe,” Le Roux said then placed his paws on the desk. Onai listened as the phone rang and rang and rang. After a minute with no answer, Onai silently exhaled happily. Le Roux hung up then dialed another number. Both listened as it started ringing.\n\n\t“Wolfe and Fox. This is Vapor Wolfe. How may I help you?” Vapor spoke out on the phones speaker. Onai gasped then exhaled then closed his eyes.\n\t“Hello Mrs. Wolfe. This is principal Le Roux at Greenwood High School. Do you have a moment to talk?” He said.\n\t“I do. Is everything okay?” Vapor asked.\n\t“I’m afraid not. I have Mr. Wolfe, uh, Onai here with me. He was caught smoking weed behind the school instead of going to class,” Le Roux said.\n\t“[b]HE WHAT?![/b]” Vapor scowled. Her voiced was deafening and caused both Onai and Le Roux to jump. “Onai what the fuck? ONAI YOU…” she yelled but stopped for a moment to breathe. “Sorry sir. Onai… I… I can’t even talk to you right now.” She said then paused for a few seconds. “What’s going to happen sir?” Vapor asked trying to calm down.\n\t“As of this time, Onai is expelled,” Le Roux said.\n\t“NOOOO!” Onai said jumping up from the chair.\n\t“Sit. Down. Mr. Wolfe,” Le Roux roared.\n\t“That’s bullshit though! It’s legal to smoke!” Onai scowled.\n\t“For adults that are twenty-one years old and older and NOT on school grounds, Mr. Wolfe. Now sit down,” Le Roux replied.\n\t“Onai, you know this means you could end up in Juvi,” Vapor said.\n\t“Whatever. Doesn’t matter now. Do whatever,” Onai said and crossed his arms then growled.\n\t“Mrs. Wolfe are you able to come and pick Onai up? I called your house but no one answered,” Le Roux said.\n\t“I’ll call his father and he can pick him up. I’m in Orion and it would take two hours to get back,” she replied.\n\t“Very well. Onai will be here in my office,” Le Roux said.\n\t“Thank you sir. Sorry for my idiot son causing you problems,” Vapor said.\n\t“I’m not going to get the police involved this time, Mrs. Wolfe. It’s his first offense with drugs at school. Next time though, the police will be informed and he’ll be handed over to them,” Le Roux said staring at Onai.\n\t“Thank you sir. Maybe he’ll stay out of Juvi, for now,” Vapor said.\n\t“Have a good day ma’am, sorry to give you this type of news,” Le Roux said.\n\t“Yeah. No problem. Have a good day yourself,” Vapor said then hung up.\n\n***\n\n\tForty minutes later Fang walked into the office and walked up and stood next to Onai. He looked down, at Onai, with his arms crossed. Onai could feel his fathers rage, his stare. He swallowed hard then slowly and cautiously looked up at his dad. His senses were correct, his dad was staring at him, almost with death in his eyes, burning a hole through him and into his soul. If it was his uncle Quill standing there, his eyes would be glowing red.\n\t“Mr. Wolfe, thank you for coming. I wish it was under better circumstances though,” Le Roux said.\n\t“Yeah. Me too,” Fang replied sitting down.\n\t“Mr. Wolfe, have you been told why you’re here and why Onai is in my office?” Le Roux asked.\n\t“Onai was caught smoking weed,” he replied.\n\t“That is correct. Due to school rules, I have no other choice than to expel Onai. If he gives up his source, I’ll make it only a two month suspension, otherwise it’s the rest of this school year. He’ll have to repeat the tenth grade,”\n\t“Onai, do you want to share your source?” Le Roux asked. Onai looked across the desk silently for a moment, thinking.\n\t“It was a one time thing only. I’m not going to give them up. I’m not a rat. Sorry,” he replied.\n\t“Onai. Where did you get the weed from?” Fang asked calmly.\n\t“Sorry, you might be a rat, but I’m not,” he replied.\n\t“Very well. I’m sorry Mr. Wolfe, but Onai is hereby expelled for the remainder of the school year. You can collect his stuff in the front office,” Le Roux said.\n\t“Get your butt up Onai,” Fang said standing up. Onai nodded and stood up and headed for the door.\n\t“Mr. Wolfe,” Le Roux said.\n\t“Yes?” Fang replied.\n\t“Yes?” Onai replied.\n\t“Onai. If after two months you decide to give your source up, you’ll be able to return to school,” Le Roux stated. Onai shook his head and left the office, heading to the front.\n\t“Sorry about him. He’s just going through a rough time with the community service and all,” Fang said.\n\t“Not a problem. I hope he gives up his source. I hate to see students have to repeat a school year,” Le Roux said. Fang nodded then headed out of the door and into the main office. Onai stood at the front desk and was reaching for the box with his name on it. He already had his backpack on his back. Fang walked up behind him and told him to walk to the car out front.\n\n***\n\n\tAs soon as they got home Onai walked in following behind his dad. Fang stopped as they entered the dining room and took the box from Onai.\n\t“Take your backpack off,” he said. Onai did as told and handed it over. Fang took the box and dumped it out on the table and did the same with his bag. He found no other drugs.\n\t“Do you have drugs in my house?” Fang asked.\n\t“No dad. It was a one time thing. It was my first time smoking,” he replied.\n\t“Don’t lie to me Onai,” he said.\n\t“I’m not fucking lying dad. It was a ONE time thing. It wasn’t even mine!” he replied.\n\t“Go to your room. You’re grounded starting now,” Fang said. Onai walked away with Fang following behind.\n\n\tOnce in his room Fang picked up his laptop and other electronics, placing them into the box from the school.\n\t“Phone,” Fang said. Onai pulled his cellphone from his pocket and held it in his paw and handed it over. Fang took it in his paw and looked at it. He pressed the power button. Six text messages was on the lock screen.\n\t“Onai where are you?” - Luna\n\t“Onai? I’m worried. You’re not in class yet,” - Luna\n\t“ONAI! Answer me!” - Luna\n\t“I’m really worried!” - Luna\n\t“You’re late!!!” - Luna\n\t“You’ve been marked absent…” - Luna\n\n\t“Seems like your sister is worried about you,” Fang said. He put in the parental unlock code to access the phone and sent a text back.\n\t“Onai is at home. Stop using your phone in school young lady! See you after school. Love Dad.” Fang typed then powered the phone down and dropped it in the box.\n\t“What else do you have in here Onai?” He said. Onai rolled his eyes and pulled out a game system from the nightstand and handed it over then watched his dad drop it into the box.\n\t“Enjoy the rest of the day. No TV,” Fang said then started to walk out of the room. He stopped and went back to the TV and pulled the power cable from the TV and wall and took it with him. Onai laid down on the bed and rolled onto his side.\n\n\tA few minutes later Fang walked back in and looked at Onai for a few seconds. He walked over to the desk and pulled out the computer tower.\n\t“Thought I forgot it?” Fang asked and chuckled.\n\t“No dad. I didn’t,” he replied and rolled over facing away. He listened as the door shut.\n\n\tAfter almost two hours of laying there he sat up and sighed loudly. He looked over at his desk. It was cluttered but a large area was clear from the laptop, only power cables remained. The desktop tower was gone too, only the three monitors remained on the wall mount. He sat on the edge of the bed, looking out of the french double doors to the balcony. He turned his head when the bedroom door opened up. Laika walked in carrying Seira, sleeping in her arms.\n\t“Hi brother,” she said.\n\t“What do you want?” He asked looking back out to the balcony.\n\t“Heard dad talking to you earlier. Thought I’d check up on you,” she explained.\n\t“I’m fine. Go away please,” he replied.\n\t“Why are you at home?” She asked ignoring his request. She walked up and sat down beside him.\n\t“Got expelled,” he replied.\n\t“Oh jeez. What happened?” She asked.\n\t“Smoked a little bit of weed and got caught. The others I was with didn’t. They ran off,” he replied.\n\t“Oh. Sorry to hear that brother,” she replied.\n\t“Yeah. Thanks,” he replied.\n\t“What’s going to happen with you now?” She asked.\n\t“Don’t know. Don’t care,” he said then looked over at her. “How is whoever that is doing?” He asked.\n\t“Seira. She’s good. The others are too,” she replied.\n\t“Can’t believe that mom and dad let you to just drop out of school,” he said.\n\t“Honestly, me too. They haven’t really pressured me in going back,” she replied.\n\t“Well I guess they figured with you having six pups it might be better. I don’t know,” he replied and laid down, his legs hanging off the side.\n\t“Maybe,” she replied.\n\t“You should probably go. Don’t want dad getting mad at you for being in here with me. The fuck up of the family,” he said.\n\t“You’re not a fuck up Onai. You made mistakes, like I did. We all make them,” she replied.\n\t“No. I am a fuck up,” he replied.\n\t“Onai. You’re not a fuck up, brother. Stop saying that,” she replied as the door opened.\n\t“Laika, leave,” Fang said.\n\t“Yes daddy,” she replied. She stood up and looked at her brother.\n\t“You’re not a fuck up Onai. You’re a good boy who made a few mistakes and we all love you no matter what,” she said then left the room. Fang walked in and closed the door behind him.\n\t“She’s right, you know,” he said walking up to the desk. He pulled the chair out and sat down.\n\t“Whatever dad,” he replied.\n\t“Stop that Onai. You could be in more trouble, but you’re not,” his dad replied.\n\t“Sure,” he replied.\n\t“What made you want to smoke weed?” Fang asked.\n\t“I don’t know dad. I got asked if I wanted to and thought it wouldn’t hurt to try it once,” he replied.\n\t“I know that teens experiment with weed and cigarettes and all that. I’m not really mad at you for that. Peer pressure and all that, I know what it feels like. But your mom on the other paw, watch out when she gets home from work,” he said.\n\t“Thanks dad,” he replied.\n\t“You have two options right now Onai. I home school you for the remainder of this year or I ground you until you graduate high school,” he said.\n\t“I don’t care. It doesn’t matter anyway. No car. Can’t get my drivers license until I’m twenty-one. No hanging out with my one and only so called friend, well other than Dale. No nothing in my life,” he replied.\n\t“Onai, tell me honestly. Why have you been so negative in the past couple of years?” Fang asked.\n\t“I don’t know,” he replied.\n\t“No Onai, you do know,” he replied.\n\t“Don’t want to talk about it,” he replied, “you can go now.” Fang took Onai’s wrists and pulled him up straight.\n\t“No. Why?” Fang asked sternly. Onai stared at him, glaring.\n\t“Because I loved it when Laika and me was in a sexual relationship. She loved it. I loved it. We were doing good together. Then mom told us no. That she didn’t want us to be “like that.” But I still had to help Laika during her first time in heat. I fell in love with her. I thought she loved me too but then Laika broke it off completely a couple of weeks later after her first heat cycle. I miss that. I loved her. Mom and her just crushed me. I loved her more than when Luna and I was doing stuff together. We had fun together. We both felt like we were more than just dead weight. We weren’t depressed when we were together. We were happy. We loved being together but then it all stopped because of mom. So yeah there you go. On top of that, I’m a depressed fuck up that’s screwed up his life with no one to love,” Onai said.\n\n\tHe glared at his dad then slid off the bed and stepped outside onto the balcony slamming the door behind him. Fang sat there dumbfounded at Onai’s revelation. After a moment Fang stood up and looked out of the doors. Onai stood leaning on the balcony, his head lowered, his ears flat and tail wrapped between his legs. Fang reached for the door handles only to stop. He sighed and left the bedroom, leaving Onai to himself.\n\n\tA few hours later Vapor walked up to Fang. She was clearly pissed.\n\t“Where is our son at?” She said.\n\t“His room, but did you tell him and Laika they couldn’t be together, sexually together or as more than brother and sister?” Fang asked.\n\t“Yeah? Years ago. That’s not the issue here. Him smoking weed and getting expelled is,” Vapor said. Fang took her paw and walked back into the garage. They stood out there for almost half an hour talking about Onai and his actions.\n\n\tTwo hours later everyone was sitting at the dining table eating dinner. Onai was staring at his plate, silently eating, barely. His mom hadn’t spoke to him about getting expelled since she got home. It worried him. Scared him. He looked up stealthily at his mom and dad quietly eating. No one was talking. It hasn’t been this silent at dinner for a long time. His stomach felt uneasy. Churning. He took a drink then a bite of mashed potatoes. He coughed. His stomach was churning too much. Too much stress. He pushed his chair back and stood up grabbing his plate.\n\t“Sit down and finish eating,” Vapor said.\n\t“My stom-”\n\t“Sit down now,” Vapor replied. Onai glared at her for a moment until Vapor stood up.\n\t“Fine, whatever,” Onai replied. He sat down and did his best to eat. Just a few minutes later he stood back up and held his stomach.\n\t“ONAI SIT!” Vapor scowled. Just seconds later Onai covered his mouth and barfed. It covered him and his plate. He dropped his arms defeated and at the worst time, just as he barfed a second time. The mishmashed colors of barf splatted across the table. He covered his muzzle trying to keep a third one in. He breathed in deeply, successfully not barfing again.\n\t“Eww,” Luna, Laika, and Bella all shrieked. Bella started gagging, she pushed away from the table and rushed off to the wash room, near the back entrance, with Todd quickly following behind to help her.\n\t“Fuck You. I t-tried warn…” he said then barfed again. He looked up at his family who was horrified and sickened. He glared at his mom for just a few seconds before flipping her off. “Fucking bitch,” he said then walked away, leaving a trail on the floor behind him.\n\t“Mom, he just… eww. It’s on everything,” Luna said.\n\t“Just go check on your brother please. See if he needs any help,” Fang replied.\n\t“Ugh, really?” Luna replied.\n\t“Yes Luna. Now,” Fang replied picking up a plate. Everyone else was up and away from the table, really unsure what to do or trying to process what just happened. Fang groaned for a second and started helping Vapor. Willow was already cleaning before any of them realized. Laika and Lin started moving their ten month old pups away from the table, they were in a large crib while they waited to be bottle fed by either parent, who was eating between feeding the pups.  \n\n\t“Onai, are you okay?” Luna asked walking into his bathroom. He was kneeling over his toilet. She held back a gag as he barfed again in the toilet. After he finished, she grabbed a clean washcloth and wet it with warm water. She sat down next to him and lifted his head from the toilet. She wiped his forehead of sweat, then the barf from his muzzle. He pushed her paw away and dropped his head back into the toilet. She took this time to clean the washcloth. Just as he finished she sat back down.\n\n\t“Why…” Onai stopped the breath heavily, “why does mom and dad hate me?”\n\t“Onai, they doesn’t hate you. To be honest Onai, you’ve been acting like an asshole. You’ve been really mean since dad came back home from the Army. Getting into trouble, stealing dads car, getting in trouble at school. What do you expect? Mom and dad showering you with butterflies, glitter and sunshine? Stop acting like an asshole and start acting like they raised you to be. A good fur, who isn’t mean,” she said then wiped vomit from his muzzle.\n\n\t“What a lot of fucking help you are,” he said.\n\t“You know what Onai? I came up to help you and make sure you were okay. You asked for my opinion and you want to be an asshole about my answer? Fine. Fuck you Onai, clean yourself up, jerk!” She said. She stood up and threw the washcloth at him and stormed out of the room, slamming the bathroom door behind her then his bedroom door. She walked into the kitchen where Fang and Vapor was still taking stuff from the table and cleaning it up.\n\n\t“You okay sweetheart? You look like your-”\n\t“Fucking Onai. He’s an asshole and a lost cause. Throw his fucking ass out of the house and forget about his deadbeat ass,” she interrupted her father. \n\t“Luna! Don’t speak like that,” Vapor said.\n\t“Don’t even start mom. He’s an asshole. I tried to help and talk to him and gave my opinion when he asked for it, and he tells me I’m not any help. Fuck him,” She said, then grabbed a mixed vegetable drink from the refrigerator and left the room.\n\n\tA bit later Vapor walked into Onai’s bedroom. He laid on his bed, on his side, staring at the wall. He was damp from a shower to clean up. She sat a couple of items on his nightstand then sat down and caressed his face.\n\t“You okay baby?” she asked.\n\t“I don’t know mom,” he replied.\n\t“You feeling better?”\n\t“I don’t know,”\n\t“I brought you some 7-Up and some saltine crackers. It’ll help you from being hungry and shouldn’t cause you to get sick,”\n\t“Thanks,” he replied monotonously.\n\n\tShe rolled him onto his back and placed her paw on his chest. She felt his heart beating fairly fast.\n\t“You seem stressed out Onai. Take a few deep breaths,” she said.\n\t“I’m fine,”\n\t“Onai, just do it okay?”\n\n\tHe closed his eyes but did as told. Half a dozen deep breaths later he seemed a little more calm and his heart rate was slower.\n\n\t“Did you come to ground me, yell at me, punish me for smoking weed and getting kicked out of school? If so, just do it and get it over with,” he said.\n\t“No I didn’t. I’m disappointed that you did, but it was your choice, and now you’re facing the consequences of your actions. You’ve had your punishment already as far as I’m concerned. Barfing on the table in front of everyone is pretty embarrassing. Plus, you’ve been expelled from school and have lots of community service to deal with, I think that’s enough punishment for you,” she replied.\n\t“Okay,” replied and rolled back over onto his side.\n\t“Onai,” she said then rolled him back onto his back, “I’m worried about you,”\n\t“Don’t be. I’m fine,”\n\t“No, you’re not. Tell me what’s wrong, please?”\n\t“No,”\n\t“Onai, just…” she said then went silent.\n\t“Okay. You really want to know? Fine… I completely despise you for breaking Laika and I up. We were fucking happy fucking and being with each other. We weren’t depressed when we were together. We were both happy. We both felt like we had something in our lives. I loved her mom. And because of you, she’s with Lin now. Those pups could have been hers and mine. But no, you had to push us apart because you didn’t want that. I miss being with her mom. I miss my little sister. I miss her sleeping in my arms at night. Something like a month later or something she broke it off with me. I… I…” he said then went silent. He stood up and left the room going outside onto the balcony. He placed his paws on the railing and dropped his head. Vapor stood at the door and watched tears drop to the wood decking between his hindpaws. She walked up and wrapped her arms around him and hugged him while he silently cried.\n\t“I’m sorry Onai. I knew my decision would affect you both. But I had to protect you both. I didn’t want you two to be affected by a possible federal law that’s going to be coming up soon,” she said.\n\t“What do you mean?”\n\t“The government is trying to make incest illegal. Those that were currently in a relationship at the start of the year will grandfathered in. But you and Laika, if you had continued, would have to be sterilized. You would be neutered and her spayed. Neither of you would ever be able to have cubs, not even if you two split up a year later or years later. We don’t know if the law will take affect, but if it does, then you would never be able to have cubs with anyone. I was just protecting you both. There was even talk of some states making incest a death penalty, ours included,”\n\t“I didn’t know. But still, it doesn’t change the fact that you forced us apart,”\n\t“I did what I had to do to protect you and Laika. You’ll understand it one day when you have your own cubs,” she explained.\n\t“Sure mom, whatever,” he replied then walked away further down the balcony.\n\n\tVapor stood there and stared at her son for a short moment before heading back inside after telling him that she did in fact love him no matter what and that she’s always there if he wanted to talk.\n\n***\n\nSaturday October 26, 2030 \n\n\t“Hello, can I help you?” Fang said to the teenage tiger at the front door.\n\t“Uh, hello. Is Onai home?” He asked.\n\t“May I ask who you are?” Fang asked.\n\t“I’m Alonzo. I’m friends with Onai at school. I haven’t seen him in a few days. I was just wondering if he was okay,” he replied.\n\t“Ah. Yeah he’s okay. Expelled from school and grounded here at home,” he replied.\n\t“Oh. Expelled?” Alonzo replied.\n\t“Yeah. What did you need from Onai other than that?”\n\t“Ah. Like I said I was just curious. Could I talk to him for a few minutes, please?” Alonzo asked.\n\t“I’ll call him down. You can wait inside,” Fang replied then stepped out of the way.\n\n\tA few minutes later Onai walked downstairs and into the foyer where the linebacker/center guard football player stood at looking at the large round aquarium with it’s dozens of fish swimming around.\n\n\t“What’s up, uh, Alonzo,” Onai asked, trying to not sound weirdly out of place. His eyes looked up at the balcony at his dad overlooking them.\n\t“Hey, sorry to hear that you got expelled man. It sucks that you won’t be able to help me out in math anymore,” Alonzo replied.\n\t“Ah yeah. Sorry man. Maybe I can help you out on Sunday’s, if my dad is okay with that,” he replied, really unsure what he was trying to get at.\n\t“Ah no worries, I think I can get Jessie to help during study hall. I was wondering though if I could get the math notes from last week. I have to make up the test that I missed,” he replied.\n\t“Uh maybe,” he replied then looked up at his dad, “care if I help him out for a bit?”\n\t“Sure,” Fang replied eyeing the two.\n\t“Thank you sir,” Alonzo replied.\n\t“Come on,” Onai replied.\n\n\tAlonzo headed upstairs following behind Onai. At the top they passed by Fang who looked at him as they went by each other. In the bedroom, Onai pulled a chair out from the desk and turned it around before digging into the cardboard box for a spiral notebook. It was true they had math together but Alonzo was actually an A+ student in math with honors, not to mention that he was two grades higher than Onai.\n\t“What the fuck are you doing here?” Onai whispered.\n\t“Sorry man. Just wanted to tell you thank you for not ratting us out. It really does suck that you got expelled for smoking with us,” he replied just as quietly.\n\t“I’m not a rat man. But you three could have warned me. I didn’t know what the fuck was happening,”\n\t“Sorry man. We didn’t think about you not knowing to run. We all thought you heard Mr. Gunnderson,”\n\t“It’s whatever. I’m expelled and you guys are safe. I won’t rat any of you out,”\n\t“Thank man. I really am sorry that you got hit though,”\n\t“No worries. Cops weren’t called so I’m not going to juvi,” Onai replied while Alonzo turned his head looking around the room.\n\t“Damn dude, your room is huge,”\n\t“Yeah,”\n\t“So, uh, well. I probably put you in a bind for asking for help. Sorry dude,”\n\t“It’s okay. Just hang out for a bit then I can walk you back out,” Onai replied, “I’d invite you to play a game or watch TV or anything but my dad took everything after I got home that day.”\n\n\tThe two of them just hang out for a bit until Alonzo groaned, “okay dude. I probably should get back home. Thanks again for being so cool.”\n\t“No problem man,” Onai replied.\n\n\tAfter Onai shut the front door Fang walked up behind him.\n\t“Dad,” Onai said after turning around.\n\t“What the fuck was that about? He’s not in your grade, he drove here,”\n\t“Just a friend dad. Really just wanted to see if I was okay. Everyone at school knows I got expelled,” he replied.\n\t“He one of the ones you smoked weed with?” Fang asked.\n\n\tOnai smiled and shook his head, “still not a rat, dad,” he said then headed back upstairs.\n\t“Just so you know Onai, I’m not a rat either. I wouldn’t turn him in,” he replied.\n\t“Good to know, but I’m still not telling anyone who I was with,” he said then headed upstairs.\n\n\tJust as soon as Onai sat down on the edge of his bed his door opened up. He rolled his eyes when his dad walked in.\n\t“Dad, I’ve already told you I’m not telling you or anyone who I was with,” he said.\n\t“That’s fine Onai. I’m not going to pressure you into telling me or anyone. I understand that you want to keep your friends safe, especially one of the football stars. I smelled the weed on him at the door. I already know he was one of them. I don’t care either. What I do care about is keeping you out of juvi or jail. I don’t want to see your life ruined,” he said.\n\t“What the fuck are you talking about dad? My life is ALREADY ruined because I took your car,”\n\t“Your life isn’t ruined, just the next few years are. Once you complete community service that record will be sealed and only top-tier government agencies can see it, FIB, CIA, NSA, etc., not even the military will be able to see the record and they can’t keep you from enlisting because of the sealed record,” Fang explained.\n\t“Okay dad,” he replied with a slight smile.\n\t“Just one thing Onai,” Fang said sternly.\n\t“What’s that?”\n\t“I don’t ever want to see you smoking it or smell it on you. Just do that and we’ll be fine. Okay?” He replied.\n\t“Sure dad,” he replied.\n\t“Good. Here’s the cables for the TV back. I don’t want to leave you without some type of entertainment,” he said pulling out the power cable for the TV.\n\t“Thanks dad,” he replied taking the bundled cable.\n\t“How’s the electronics stuff going? That computer you were building,” Fang asked.\n\t“Fucked. Blew out the high-voltage power supply. Have to rebuild it. But the electronics is going well overall,” he replied.\n\t“Ah that’s right. That was the loud bang a while back. One of the capacitors right?”\n\t“Yup, and the transformer itself,” Onai replied while trying to hook the power cable into the TV.\n\t“I’m sure you’ll get it right the next time,”\n\t“Yeah. I emailed Lamar about the problem a couple of days ago. No idea if he’s emailed me back though,” Onai said while going through the setup menu of the TV then satellite settings.\n\t“You haven’t checked email?” Fang asked.\n\t“No I haven’t dad, even though I can check it on the computer in my electronics lab. You said no electronics so I haven’t used it,”\n\t“Ah, I forgot that you had that computer down there. Thanks for being honest Onai,”\n\t“Yeah, no problem. You going to take that one too?”\n\t“No. Keep it. Check your email to see if Lamar has contacted you about it. Just no playing games or anything not electronics related,”\n\t“Thanks dad,”\n\t“No problem. I’ll leave you alone now. Love you son,” he said.\n\t“Love you too dad. See you later,” he replied then laid back down on the bed.\n\n\tFang headed to the door and opened it. He looked back and had one final question. “Hey Onai. How did weed taste? Did you like it? I’m just curious,” he asked.\n\t“Uh. Not really. I couldn’t keep from coughing and it tasted weird. I’m not sure how to explain the taste,” he replied.\n\t“Ah okay. See you later kiddo,” Fang said then left the room.\n\n***\n\nMonday, October 28, 2030 \n\n\tThe following Monday Onai started his home schooling along side his sister Laika and her friend Tamra. However, since he was in a different grade he wouldn’t be studying with the two girls. Fang explained to Onai that even though he was expelled he could still do home schooling and possibly not be held back. It would depend on if he passed the school test to allow him to move on to the next grade.\n\n",
  "writing_bbcode_parsed": "<span style='word-wrap: break-word;'>Monday October 21, 2030<br /><br />\t&ldquo;Hey Onai! Come on bro!&rdquo; Marlin, a Horned Lizard, said walking up to Onai&rsquo;s locker.<br />\t&ldquo;Where we going?&rdquo; Onai asked.<br />\t&ldquo;Skipping the start of class and smoke some weed,&rdquo; Marlin said.<br />\t&ldquo;I don&rsquo;t know man. I&rsquo;m already in enough trouble and getting caught smoking weed would probably send me to Juvi,&rdquo; Onai explained.<br />\t&ldquo;Ah quit being a pussy. It&rsquo;ll take like ten minutes max. You can say you were taking a shit or something,&rdquo; he replied.<br />\t&ldquo;Uh. I&hellip; Uh, okay. Let&rsquo;s go,&rdquo; Onai said and nervously smiled.<br /><br />\tOnai and Marlin have been friends for the past four or five years. They mainly would hang out at school with other mutual friends. Marlin has been at the Wolfe house a few times over those years and Onai over at Marlin&rsquo;s house a few times as well. They don&rsquo;t have a whole lot in common, but gaming is one common thing. Marlin loves console games whereas Onai prefers computer gaming. The times that Marlin visited Onai they mainly stayed outside swimming and later in the evening playing games together in the media room, usually with Marlin winning.<br /><br />\tA couple of minutes later, four teenagers stood out behind a small building on the school grounds. A tall, muscular jock tiger lit up the joint, took a hit and passed it to another jock, a lion. Both jocks were varsity football players in the twelfth grade. The lion took a large hit and held it for a moment before exhaling then taking another hit. He then passed it to Marlin. Marlin did the same and passed it to Onai. Onai looked at it for a moment unsure if he should. He looked over at his friend who urged him to go on and take a hit. The tiger looked over at the wolf.<br />\t&ldquo;Didn&rsquo;t know you were so cool Wolfe. I figured you were just like your sister, a stuck up rich princess,&rdquo; the tiger said.<br />\t&ldquo;She&rsquo;s not stuck up, just has a pup to care for,&rdquo; he replied.<br />\t&ldquo;Either way, you&rsquo;re wasting good weed. Take a hit or pass it back bro,&rdquo; the lion said. Onai exhaled then took a huge hit. A hit far too big for his first time. He grabbed his chest and started coughing. The tiger walked over and slammed his paw on Onai&rsquo;s back a few times while he was leaning over, his paws resting against his upper legs.<br />\t&ldquo;Damn, Wolfe, easy bro,&rdquo; he said taking the joint.<br />\t&ldquo;Uh <em>~cough~</em> ye&hellip; yeah,&rdquo; he replied. After another thirty seconds of passing it around it was back in Onai&rsquo;s fingers.<br />\t&ldquo;Oh what the hell?&rdquo; Onai said and took another hit, a smaller one this time. He coughed a few times again.<br />\t&ldquo;Who&rsquo;s out here?&rdquo; A voice said from around a corner.<br />\t&ldquo;Oh shit! You&rsquo;re all on your own,&rdquo; the tiger said then rushed off with the lion following behind him. Marlin was right behind them. Onai was confused at what was going on, he had not heard the voice.<br />\t&ldquo;What the hell?&rdquo; He yelled out at the three. Just as he finished yelling at them a paw came down on his shoulder and he was spun around. His eyes widened at the buffalo in front of him.<br />\t&ldquo;M-Mr. Gunnderson,&rdquo; Onai stuttered out.<br />\t&ldquo;What do we have here?&rdquo; Gunnderson said.<br />\t&ldquo;N-nothing. I was just taking a long way to class. Needed fresh air,&rdquo; Onai said.<br />\t&ldquo;Fresh air huh?&rdquo; Gunnderson said taking the still burning joint from Onai.<br />\t&ldquo;Oooooh shit,&rdquo; Onai said just realizing how much trouble he was in now. He looked over his shoulder to see no one there, his friend abandoned him and so did the two jocks. He looked back at the teacher extinguishing the joint on the wall.<br />\t&ldquo;Come on,&rdquo; Gunnderson said taking hold onto the back of Onai&rsquo;s school uniform collar.<br /><br />\tThe buffalo escorted Onai into the school, down the long main hallway and into the office. He walked him over to a chair.<br />\t&ldquo;Sit. Stay. Don&rsquo;t move!&rdquo; Gunnderson said. Onai nodded while his head was lowered, not even daring to look up.<br /><br />\tGunnderson walked up to the secretary and asked for the principal, who walked out just thirty seconds later. Gunnderson handed the principal the half smoked joint and explained where he found Onai at and mentioned there were others but they all ran off before he could get to them.<br /><br />\t&ldquo;Come with me Mr. Wolfe,&rdquo; Principal Le Roux stated. Onai looked up at the tall brown bear and gulped.<br />\t&ldquo;Don&rsquo;t make me repeat myself,&rdquo; Le Roux said. Onai nodded, stood up and started walking. He walked to the door that lead into a blue carpeted hallway then into the principal&rsquo;s office. There were six other rooms in that hallway, the vice principal&rsquo;s office, a text book storage room and a few other offices used by various faculty.<br /><br />\t&ldquo;Sit down Mr. Wolfe,&rdquo; Le Roux said then sat down at his computer. He clicked the mouse a few times and typed on the keyboard. Onai assumed, correctly, that it was his name being typed. He gulped as he pressed the speaker phone then dialed a number. His house phone number.<br />\t&ldquo;Principal Le Roux, please. Please, don&rsquo;t call my parents. This is the first time I&rsquo;ve been in trouble. Please, let me off with a warning. Please?&rdquo; Onai begged.<br />\t&ldquo;We have zero tolerance for drugs in our school. You know that Mr. Wolfe,&rdquo; Le Roux said then placed his paws on the desk. Onai listened as the phone rang and rang and rang. After a minute with no answer, Onai silently exhaled happily. Le Roux hung up then dialed another number. Both listened as it started ringing.<br /><br />\t&ldquo;Wolfe and Fox. This is Vapor Wolfe. How may I help you?&rdquo; Vapor spoke out on the phones speaker. Onai gasped then exhaled then closed his eyes.<br />\t&ldquo;Hello Mrs. Wolfe. This is principal Le Roux at Greenwood High School. Do you have a moment to talk?&rdquo; He said.<br />\t&ldquo;I do. Is everything okay?&rdquo; Vapor asked.<br />\t&ldquo;I&rsquo;m afraid not. I have Mr. Wolfe, uh, Onai here with me. He was caught smoking weed behind the school instead of going to class,&rdquo; Le Roux said.<br />\t&ldquo;<strong>HE WHAT?!</strong>&rdquo; Vapor scowled. Her voiced was deafening and caused both Onai and Le Roux to jump. &ldquo;Onai what the fuck? ONAI YOU&hellip;&rdquo; she yelled but stopped for a moment to breathe. &ldquo;Sorry sir. Onai&hellip; I&hellip; I can&rsquo;t even talk to you right now.&rdquo; She said then paused for a few seconds. &ldquo;What&rsquo;s going to happen sir?&rdquo; Vapor asked trying to calm down.<br />\t&ldquo;As of this time, Onai is expelled,&rdquo; Le Roux said.<br />\t&ldquo;NOOOO!&rdquo; Onai said jumping up from the chair.<br />\t&ldquo;Sit. Down. Mr. Wolfe,&rdquo; Le Roux roared.<br />\t&ldquo;That&rsquo;s bullshit though! It&rsquo;s legal to smoke!&rdquo; Onai scowled.<br />\t&ldquo;For adults that are twenty-one years old and older and NOT on school grounds, Mr. Wolfe. Now sit down,&rdquo; Le Roux replied.<br />\t&ldquo;Onai, you know this means you could end up in Juvi,&rdquo; Vapor said.<br />\t&ldquo;Whatever. Doesn&rsquo;t matter now. Do whatever,&rdquo; Onai said and crossed his arms then growled.<br />\t&ldquo;Mrs. Wolfe are you able to come and pick Onai up? I called your house but no one answered,&rdquo; Le Roux said.<br />\t&ldquo;I&rsquo;ll call his father and he can pick him up. I&rsquo;m in Orion and it would take two hours to get back,&rdquo; she replied.<br />\t&ldquo;Very well. Onai will be here in my office,&rdquo; Le Roux said.<br />\t&ldquo;Thank you sir. Sorry for my idiot son causing you problems,&rdquo; Vapor said.<br />\t&ldquo;I&rsquo;m not going to get the police involved this time, Mrs. Wolfe. It&rsquo;s his first offense with drugs at school. Next time though, the police will be informed and he&rsquo;ll be handed over to them,&rdquo; Le Roux said staring at Onai.<br />\t&ldquo;Thank you sir. Maybe he&rsquo;ll stay out of Juvi, for now,&rdquo; Vapor said.<br />\t&ldquo;Have a good day ma&rsquo;am, sorry to give you this type of news,&rdquo; Le Roux said.<br />\t&ldquo;Yeah. No problem. Have a good day yourself,&rdquo; Vapor said then hung up.<br /><br />***<br /><br />\tForty minutes later Fang walked into the office and walked up and stood next to Onai. He looked down, at Onai, with his arms crossed. Onai could feel his fathers rage, his stare. He swallowed hard then slowly and cautiously looked up at his dad. His senses were correct, his dad was staring at him, almost with death in his eyes, burning a hole through him and into his soul. If it was his uncle Quill standing there, his eyes would be glowing red.<br />\t&ldquo;Mr. Wolfe, thank you for coming. I wish it was under better circumstances though,&rdquo; Le Roux said.<br />\t&ldquo;Yeah. Me too,&rdquo; Fang replied sitting down.<br />\t&ldquo;Mr. Wolfe, have you been told why you&rsquo;re here and why Onai is in my office?&rdquo; Le Roux asked.<br />\t&ldquo;Onai was caught smoking weed,&rdquo; he replied.<br />\t&ldquo;That is correct. Due to school rules, I have no other choice than to expel Onai. If he gives up his source, I&rsquo;ll make it only a two month suspension, otherwise it&rsquo;s the rest of this school year. He&rsquo;ll have to repeat the tenth grade,&rdquo;<br />\t&ldquo;Onai, do you want to share your source?&rdquo; Le Roux asked. Onai looked across the desk silently for a moment, thinking.<br />\t&ldquo;It was a one time thing only. I&rsquo;m not going to give them up. I&rsquo;m not a rat. Sorry,&rdquo; he replied.<br />\t&ldquo;Onai. Where did you get the weed from?&rdquo; Fang asked calmly.<br />\t&ldquo;Sorry, you might be a rat, but I&rsquo;m not,&rdquo; he replied.<br />\t&ldquo;Very well. I&rsquo;m sorry Mr. Wolfe, but Onai is hereby expelled for the remainder of the school year. You can collect his stuff in the front office,&rdquo; Le Roux said.<br />\t&ldquo;Get your butt up Onai,&rdquo; Fang said standing up. Onai nodded and stood up and headed for the door.<br />\t&ldquo;Mr. Wolfe,&rdquo; Le Roux said.<br />\t&ldquo;Yes?&rdquo; Fang replied.<br />\t&ldquo;Yes?&rdquo; Onai replied.<br />\t&ldquo;Onai. If after two months you decide to give your source up, you&rsquo;ll be able to return to school,&rdquo; Le Roux stated. Onai shook his head and left the office, heading to the front.<br />\t&ldquo;Sorry about him. He&rsquo;s just going through a rough time with the community service and all,&rdquo; Fang said.<br />\t&ldquo;Not a problem. I hope he gives up his source. I hate to see students have to repeat a school year,&rdquo; Le Roux said. Fang nodded then headed out of the door and into the main office. Onai stood at the front desk and was reaching for the box with his name on it. He already had his backpack on his back. Fang walked up behind him and told him to walk to the car out front.<br /><br />***<br /><br />\tAs soon as they got home Onai walked in following behind his dad. Fang stopped as they entered the dining room and took the box from Onai.<br />\t&ldquo;Take your backpack off,&rdquo; he said. Onai did as told and handed it over. Fang took the box and dumped it out on the table and did the same with his bag. He found no other drugs.<br />\t&ldquo;Do you have drugs in my house?&rdquo; Fang asked.<br />\t&ldquo;No dad. It was a one time thing. It was my first time smoking,&rdquo; he replied.<br />\t&ldquo;Don&rsquo;t lie to me Onai,&rdquo; he said.<br />\t&ldquo;I&rsquo;m not fucking lying dad. It was a ONE time thing. It wasn&rsquo;t even mine!&rdquo; he replied.<br />\t&ldquo;Go to your room. You&rsquo;re grounded starting now,&rdquo; Fang said. Onai walked away with Fang following behind.<br /><br />\tOnce in his room Fang picked up his laptop and other electronics, placing them into the box from the school.<br />\t&ldquo;Phone,&rdquo; Fang said. Onai pulled his cellphone from his pocket and held it in his paw and handed it over. Fang took it in his paw and looked at it. He pressed the power button. Six text messages was on the lock screen.<br />\t&ldquo;Onai where are you?&rdquo; - Luna<br />\t&ldquo;Onai? I&rsquo;m worried. You&rsquo;re not in class yet,&rdquo; - Luna<br />\t&ldquo;ONAI! Answer me!&rdquo; - Luna<br />\t&ldquo;I&rsquo;m really worried!&rdquo; - Luna<br />\t&ldquo;You&rsquo;re late!!!&rdquo; - Luna<br />\t&ldquo;You&rsquo;ve been marked absent&hellip;&rdquo; - Luna<br /><br />\t&ldquo;Seems like your sister is worried about you,&rdquo; Fang said. He put in the parental unlock code to access the phone and sent a text back.<br />\t&ldquo;Onai is at home. Stop using your phone in school young lady! See you after school. Love Dad.&rdquo; Fang typed then powered the phone down and dropped it in the box.<br />\t&ldquo;What else do you have in here Onai?&rdquo; He said. Onai rolled his eyes and pulled out a game system from the nightstand and handed it over then watched his dad drop it into the box.<br />\t&ldquo;Enjoy the rest of the day. No TV,&rdquo; Fang said then started to walk out of the room. He stopped and went back to the TV and pulled the power cable from the TV and wall and took it with him. Onai laid down on the bed and rolled onto his side.<br /><br />\tA few minutes later Fang walked back in and looked at Onai for a few seconds. He walked over to the desk and pulled out the computer tower.<br />\t&ldquo;Thought I forgot it?&rdquo; Fang asked and chuckled.<br />\t&ldquo;No dad. I didn&rsquo;t,&rdquo; he replied and rolled over facing away. He listened as the door shut.<br /><br />\tAfter almost two hours of laying there he sat up and sighed loudly. He looked over at his desk. It was cluttered but a large area was clear from the laptop, only power cables remained. The desktop tower was gone too, only the three monitors remained on the wall mount. He sat on the edge of the bed, looking out of the french double doors to the balcony. He turned his head when the bedroom door opened up. Laika walked in carrying Seira, sleeping in her arms.<br />\t&ldquo;Hi brother,&rdquo; she said.<br />\t&ldquo;What do you want?&rdquo; He asked looking back out to the balcony.<br />\t&ldquo;Heard dad talking to you earlier. Thought I&rsquo;d check up on you,&rdquo; she explained.<br />\t&ldquo;I&rsquo;m fine. Go away please,&rdquo; he replied.<br />\t&ldquo;Why are you at home?&rdquo; She asked ignoring his request. She walked up and sat down beside him.<br />\t&ldquo;Got expelled,&rdquo; he replied.<br />\t&ldquo;Oh jeez. What happened?&rdquo; She asked.<br />\t&ldquo;Smoked a little bit of weed and got caught. The others I was with didn&rsquo;t. They ran off,&rdquo; he replied.<br />\t&ldquo;Oh. Sorry to hear that brother,&rdquo; she replied.<br />\t&ldquo;Yeah. Thanks,&rdquo; he replied.<br />\t&ldquo;What&rsquo;s going to happen with you now?&rdquo; She asked.<br />\t&ldquo;Don&rsquo;t know. Don&rsquo;t care,&rdquo; he said then looked over at her. &ldquo;How is whoever that is doing?&rdquo; He asked.<br />\t&ldquo;Seira. She&rsquo;s good. The others are too,&rdquo; she replied.<br />\t&ldquo;Can&rsquo;t believe that mom and dad let you to just drop out of school,&rdquo; he said.<br />\t&ldquo;Honestly, me too. They haven&rsquo;t really pressured me in going back,&rdquo; she replied.<br />\t&ldquo;Well I guess they figured with you having six pups it might be better. I don&rsquo;t know,&rdquo; he replied and laid down, his legs hanging off the side.<br />\t&ldquo;Maybe,&rdquo; she replied.<br />\t&ldquo;You should probably go. Don&rsquo;t want dad getting mad at you for being in here with me. The fuck up of the family,&rdquo; he said.<br />\t&ldquo;You&rsquo;re not a fuck up Onai. You made mistakes, like I did. We all make them,&rdquo; she replied.<br />\t&ldquo;No. I am a fuck up,&rdquo; he replied.<br />\t&ldquo;Onai. You&rsquo;re not a fuck up, brother. Stop saying that,&rdquo; she replied as the door opened.<br />\t&ldquo;Laika, leave,&rdquo; Fang said.<br />\t&ldquo;Yes daddy,&rdquo; she replied. She stood up and looked at her brother.<br />\t&ldquo;You&rsquo;re not a fuck up Onai. You&rsquo;re a good boy who made a few mistakes and we all love you no matter what,&rdquo; she said then left the room. Fang walked in and closed the door behind him.<br />\t&ldquo;She&rsquo;s right, you know,&rdquo; he said walking up to the desk. He pulled the chair out and sat down.<br />\t&ldquo;Whatever dad,&rdquo; he replied.<br />\t&ldquo;Stop that Onai. You could be in more trouble, but you&rsquo;re not,&rdquo; his dad replied.<br />\t&ldquo;Sure,&rdquo; he replied.<br />\t&ldquo;What made you want to smoke weed?&rdquo; Fang asked.<br />\t&ldquo;I don&rsquo;t know dad. I got asked if I wanted to and thought it wouldn&rsquo;t hurt to try it once,&rdquo; he replied.<br />\t&ldquo;I know that teens experiment with weed and cigarettes and all that. I&rsquo;m not really mad at you for that. Peer pressure and all that, I know what it feels like. But your mom on the other paw, watch out when she gets home from work,&rdquo; he said.<br />\t&ldquo;Thanks dad,&rdquo; he replied.<br />\t&ldquo;You have two options right now Onai. I home school you for the remainder of this year or I ground you until you graduate high school,&rdquo; he said.<br />\t&ldquo;I don&rsquo;t care. It doesn&rsquo;t matter anyway. No car. Can&rsquo;t get my drivers license until I&rsquo;m twenty-one. No hanging out with my one and only so called friend, well other than Dale. No nothing in my life,&rdquo; he replied.<br />\t&ldquo;Onai, tell me honestly. Why have you been so negative in the past couple of years?&rdquo; Fang asked.<br />\t&ldquo;I don&rsquo;t know,&rdquo; he replied.<br />\t&ldquo;No Onai, you do know,&rdquo; he replied.<br />\t&ldquo;Don&rsquo;t want to talk about it,&rdquo; he replied, &ldquo;you can go now.&rdquo; Fang took Onai&rsquo;s wrists and pulled him up straight.<br />\t&ldquo;No. Why?&rdquo; Fang asked sternly. Onai stared at him, glaring.<br />\t&ldquo;Because I loved it when Laika and me was in a sexual relationship. She loved it. I loved it. We were doing good together. Then mom told us no. That she didn&rsquo;t want us to be &ldquo;like that.&rdquo; But I still had to help Laika during her first time in heat. I fell in love with her. I thought she loved me too but then Laika broke it off completely a couple of weeks later after her first heat cycle. I miss that. I loved her. Mom and her just crushed me. I loved her more than when Luna and I was doing stuff together. We had fun together. We both felt like we were more than just dead weight. We weren&rsquo;t depressed when we were together. We were happy. We loved being together but then it all stopped because of mom. So yeah there you go. On top of that, I&rsquo;m a depressed fuck up that&rsquo;s screwed up his life with no one to love,&rdquo; Onai said.<br /><br />\tHe glared at his dad then slid off the bed and stepped outside onto the balcony slamming the door behind him. Fang sat there dumbfounded at Onai&rsquo;s revelation. After a moment Fang stood up and looked out of the doors. Onai stood leaning on the balcony, his head lowered, his ears flat and tail wrapped between his legs. Fang reached for the door handles only to stop. He sighed and left the bedroom, leaving Onai to himself.<br /><br />\tA few hours later Vapor walked up to Fang. She was clearly pissed.<br />\t&ldquo;Where is our son at?&rdquo; She said.<br />\t&ldquo;His room, but did you tell him and Laika they couldn&rsquo;t be together, sexually together or as more than brother and sister?&rdquo; Fang asked.<br />\t&ldquo;Yeah? Years ago. That&rsquo;s not the issue here. Him smoking weed and getting expelled is,&rdquo; Vapor said. Fang took her paw and walked back into the garage. They stood out there for almost half an hour talking about Onai and his actions.<br /><br />\tTwo hours later everyone was sitting at the dining table eating dinner. Onai was staring at his plate, silently eating, barely. His mom hadn&rsquo;t spoke to him about getting expelled since she got home. It worried him. Scared him. He looked up stealthily at his mom and dad quietly eating. No one was talking. It hasn&rsquo;t been this silent at dinner for a long time. His stomach felt uneasy. Churning. He took a drink then a bite of mashed potatoes. He coughed. His stomach was churning too much. Too much stress. He pushed his chair back and stood up grabbing his plate.<br />\t&ldquo;Sit down and finish eating,&rdquo; Vapor said.<br />\t&ldquo;My stom-&rdquo;<br />\t&ldquo;Sit down now,&rdquo; Vapor replied. Onai glared at her for a moment until Vapor stood up.<br />\t&ldquo;Fine, whatever,&rdquo; Onai replied. He sat down and did his best to eat. Just a few minutes later he stood back up and held his stomach.<br />\t&ldquo;ONAI SIT!&rdquo; Vapor scowled. Just seconds later Onai covered his mouth and barfed. It covered him and his plate. He dropped his arms defeated and at the worst time, just as he barfed a second time. The mishmashed colors of barf splatted across the table. He covered his muzzle trying to keep a third one in. He breathed in deeply, successfully not barfing again.<br />\t&ldquo;Eww,&rdquo; Luna, Laika, and Bella all shrieked. Bella started gagging, she pushed away from the table and rushed off to the wash room, near the back entrance, with Todd quickly following behind to help her.<br />\t&ldquo;Fuck You. I t-tried warn&hellip;&rdquo; he said then barfed again. He looked up at his family who was horrified and sickened. He glared at his mom for just a few seconds before flipping her off. &ldquo;Fucking bitch,&rdquo; he said then walked away, leaving a trail on the floor behind him.<br />\t&ldquo;Mom, he just&hellip; eww. It&rsquo;s on everything,&rdquo; Luna said.<br />\t&ldquo;Just go check on your brother please. See if he needs any help,&rdquo; Fang replied.<br />\t&ldquo;Ugh, really?&rdquo; Luna replied.<br />\t&ldquo;Yes Luna. Now,&rdquo; Fang replied picking up a plate. Everyone else was up and away from the table, really unsure what to do or trying to process what just happened. Fang groaned for a second and started helping Vapor. Willow was already cleaning before any of them realized. Laika and Lin started moving their ten month old pups away from the table, they were in a large crib while they waited to be bottle fed by either parent, who was eating between feeding the pups.&nbsp;&nbsp;<br /><br />\t&ldquo;Onai, are you okay?&rdquo; Luna asked walking into his bathroom. He was kneeling over his toilet. She held back a gag as he barfed again in the toilet. After he finished, she grabbed a clean washcloth and wet it with warm water. She sat down next to him and lifted his head from the toilet. She wiped his forehead of sweat, then the barf from his muzzle. He pushed her paw away and dropped his head back into the toilet. She took this time to clean the washcloth. Just as he finished she sat back down.<br /><br />\t&ldquo;Why&hellip;&rdquo; Onai stopped the breath heavily, &ldquo;why does mom and dad hate me?&rdquo;<br />\t&ldquo;Onai, they doesn&rsquo;t hate you. To be honest Onai, you&rsquo;ve been acting like an asshole. You&rsquo;ve been really mean since dad came back home from the Army. Getting into trouble, stealing dads car, getting in trouble at school. What do you expect? Mom and dad showering you with butterflies, glitter and sunshine? Stop acting like an asshole and start acting like they raised you to be. A good fur, who isn&rsquo;t mean,&rdquo; she said then wiped vomit from his muzzle.<br /><br />\t&ldquo;What a lot of fucking help you are,&rdquo; he said.<br />\t&ldquo;You know what Onai? I came up to help you and make sure you were okay. You asked for my opinion and you want to be an asshole about my answer? Fine. Fuck you Onai, clean yourself up, jerk!&rdquo; She said. She stood up and threw the washcloth at him and stormed out of the room, slamming the bathroom door behind her then his bedroom door. She walked into the kitchen where Fang and Vapor was still taking stuff from the table and cleaning it up.<br /><br />\t&ldquo;You okay sweetheart? You look like your-&rdquo;<br />\t&ldquo;Fucking Onai. He&rsquo;s an asshole and a lost cause. Throw his fucking ass out of the house and forget about his deadbeat ass,&rdquo; she interrupted her father. <br />\t&ldquo;Luna! Don&rsquo;t speak like that,&rdquo; Vapor said.<br />\t&ldquo;Don&rsquo;t even start mom. He&rsquo;s an asshole. I tried to help and talk to him and gave my opinion when he asked for it, and he tells me I&rsquo;m not any help. Fuck him,&rdquo; She said, then grabbed a mixed vegetable drink from the refrigerator and left the room.<br /><br />\tA bit later Vapor walked into Onai&rsquo;s bedroom. He laid on his bed, on his side, staring at the wall. He was damp from a shower to clean up. She sat a couple of items on his nightstand then sat down and caressed his face.<br />\t&ldquo;You okay baby?&rdquo; she asked.<br />\t&ldquo;I don&rsquo;t know mom,&rdquo; he replied.<br />\t&ldquo;You feeling better?&rdquo;<br />\t&ldquo;I don&rsquo;t know,&rdquo;<br />\t&ldquo;I brought you some 7-Up and some saltine crackers. It&rsquo;ll help you from being hungry and shouldn&rsquo;t cause you to get sick,&rdquo;<br />\t&ldquo;Thanks,&rdquo; he replied monotonously.<br /><br />\tShe rolled him onto his back and placed her paw on his chest. She felt his heart beating fairly fast.<br />\t&ldquo;You seem stressed out Onai. Take a few deep breaths,&rdquo; she said.<br />\t&ldquo;I&rsquo;m fine,&rdquo;<br />\t&ldquo;Onai, just do it okay?&rdquo;<br /><br />\tHe closed his eyes but did as told. Half a dozen deep breaths later he seemed a little more calm and his heart rate was slower.<br /><br />\t&ldquo;Did you come to ground me, yell at me, punish me for smoking weed and getting kicked out of school? If so, just do it and get it over with,&rdquo; he said.<br />\t&ldquo;No I didn&rsquo;t. I&rsquo;m disappointed that you did, but it was your choice, and now you&rsquo;re facing the consequences of your actions. You&rsquo;ve had your punishment already as far as I&rsquo;m concerned. Barfing on the table in front of everyone is pretty embarrassing. Plus, you&rsquo;ve been expelled from school and have lots of community service to deal with, I think that&rsquo;s enough punishment for you,&rdquo; she replied.<br />\t&ldquo;Okay,&rdquo; replied and rolled back over onto his side.<br />\t&ldquo;Onai,&rdquo; she said then rolled him back onto his back, &ldquo;I&rsquo;m worried about you,&rdquo;<br />\t&ldquo;Don&rsquo;t be. I&rsquo;m fine,&rdquo;<br />\t&ldquo;No, you&rsquo;re not. Tell me what&rsquo;s wrong, please?&rdquo;<br />\t&ldquo;No,&rdquo;<br />\t&ldquo;Onai, just&hellip;&rdquo; she said then went silent.<br />\t&ldquo;Okay. You really want to know? Fine&hellip; I completely despise you for breaking Laika and I up. We were fucking happy fucking and being with each other. We weren&rsquo;t depressed when we were together. We were both happy. We both felt like we had something in our lives. I loved her mom. And because of you, she&rsquo;s with Lin now. Those pups could have been hers and mine. But no, you had to push us apart because you didn&rsquo;t want that. I miss being with her mom. I miss my little sister. I miss her sleeping in my arms at night. Something like a month later or something she broke it off with me. I&hellip; I&hellip;&rdquo; he said then went silent. He stood up and left the room going outside onto the balcony. He placed his paws on the railing and dropped his head. Vapor stood at the door and watched tears drop to the wood decking between his hindpaws. She walked up and wrapped her arms around him and hugged him while he silently cried.<br />\t&ldquo;I&rsquo;m sorry Onai. I knew my decision would affect you both. But I had to protect you both. I didn&rsquo;t want you two to be affected by a possible federal law that&rsquo;s going to be coming up soon,&rdquo; she said.<br />\t&ldquo;What do you mean?&rdquo;<br />\t&ldquo;The government is trying to make incest illegal. Those that were currently in a relationship at the start of the year will grandfathered in. But you and Laika, if you had continued, would have to be sterilized. You would be neutered and her spayed. Neither of you would ever be able to have cubs, not even if you two split up a year later or years later. We don&rsquo;t know if the law will take affect, but if it does, then you would never be able to have cubs with anyone. I was just protecting you both. There was even talk of some states making incest a death penalty, ours included,&rdquo;<br />\t&ldquo;I didn&rsquo;t know. But still, it doesn&rsquo;t change the fact that you forced us apart,&rdquo;<br />\t&ldquo;I did what I had to do to protect you and Laika. You&rsquo;ll understand it one day when you have your own cubs,&rdquo; she explained.<br />\t&ldquo;Sure mom, whatever,&rdquo; he replied then walked away further down the balcony.<br /><br />\tVapor stood there and stared at her son for a short moment before heading back inside after telling him that she did in fact love him no matter what and that she&rsquo;s always there if he wanted to talk.<br /><br />***<br /><br />Saturday October 26, 2030 <br /><br />\t&ldquo;Hello, can I help you?&rdquo; Fang said to the teenage tiger at the front door.<br />\t&ldquo;Uh, hello. Is Onai home?&rdquo; He asked.<br />\t&ldquo;May I ask who you are?&rdquo; Fang asked.<br />\t&ldquo;I&rsquo;m Alonzo. I&rsquo;m friends with Onai at school. I haven&rsquo;t seen him in a few days. I was just wondering if he was okay,&rdquo; he replied.<br />\t&ldquo;Ah. Yeah he&rsquo;s okay. Expelled from school and grounded here at home,&rdquo; he replied.<br />\t&ldquo;Oh. Expelled?&rdquo; Alonzo replied.<br />\t&ldquo;Yeah. What did you need from Onai other than that?&rdquo;<br />\t&ldquo;Ah. Like I said I was just curious. Could I talk to him for a few minutes, please?&rdquo; Alonzo asked.<br />\t&ldquo;I&rsquo;ll call him down. You can wait inside,&rdquo; Fang replied then stepped out of the way.<br /><br />\tA few minutes later Onai walked downstairs and into the foyer where the linebacker/center guard football player stood at looking at the large round aquarium with it&rsquo;s dozens of fish swimming around.<br /><br />\t&ldquo;What&rsquo;s up, uh, Alonzo,&rdquo; Onai asked, trying to not sound weirdly out of place. His eyes looked up at the balcony at his dad overlooking them.<br />\t&ldquo;Hey, sorry to hear that you got expelled man. It sucks that you won&rsquo;t be able to help me out in math anymore,&rdquo; Alonzo replied.<br />\t&ldquo;Ah yeah. Sorry man. Maybe I can help you out on Sunday&rsquo;s, if my dad is okay with that,&rdquo; he replied, really unsure what he was trying to get at.<br />\t&ldquo;Ah no worries, I think I can get Jessie to help during study hall. I was wondering though if I could get the math notes from last week. I have to make up the test that I missed,&rdquo; he replied.<br />\t&ldquo;Uh maybe,&rdquo; he replied then looked up at his dad, &ldquo;care if I help him out for a bit?&rdquo;<br />\t&ldquo;Sure,&rdquo; Fang replied eyeing the two.<br />\t&ldquo;Thank you sir,&rdquo; Alonzo replied.<br />\t&ldquo;Come on,&rdquo; Onai replied.<br /><br />\tAlonzo headed upstairs following behind Onai. At the top they passed by Fang who looked at him as they went by each other. In the bedroom, Onai pulled a chair out from the desk and turned it around before digging into the cardboard box for a spiral notebook. It was true they had math together but Alonzo was actually an A+ student in math with honors, not to mention that he was two grades higher than Onai.<br />\t&ldquo;What the fuck are you doing here?&rdquo; Onai whispered.<br />\t&ldquo;Sorry man. Just wanted to tell you thank you for not ratting us out. It really does suck that you got expelled for smoking with us,&rdquo; he replied just as quietly.<br />\t&ldquo;I&rsquo;m not a rat man. But you three could have warned me. I didn&rsquo;t know what the fuck was happening,&rdquo;<br />\t&ldquo;Sorry man. We didn&rsquo;t think about you not knowing to run. We all thought you heard Mr. Gunnderson,&rdquo;<br />\t&ldquo;It&rsquo;s whatever. I&rsquo;m expelled and you guys are safe. I won&rsquo;t rat any of you out,&rdquo;<br />\t&ldquo;Thank man. I really am sorry that you got hit though,&rdquo;<br />\t&ldquo;No worries. Cops weren&rsquo;t called so I&rsquo;m not going to juvi,&rdquo; Onai replied while Alonzo turned his head looking around the room.<br />\t&ldquo;Damn dude, your room is huge,&rdquo;<br />\t&ldquo;Yeah,&rdquo;<br />\t&ldquo;So, uh, well. I probably put you in a bind for asking for help. Sorry dude,&rdquo;<br />\t&ldquo;It&rsquo;s okay. Just hang out for a bit then I can walk you back out,&rdquo; Onai replied, &ldquo;I&rsquo;d invite you to play a game or watch TV or anything but my dad took everything after I got home that day.&rdquo;<br /><br />\tThe two of them just hang out for a bit until Alonzo groaned, &ldquo;okay dude. I probably should get back home. Thanks again for being so cool.&rdquo;<br />\t&ldquo;No problem man,&rdquo; Onai replied.<br /><br />\tAfter Onai shut the front door Fang walked up behind him.<br />\t&ldquo;Dad,&rdquo; Onai said after turning around.<br />\t&ldquo;What the fuck was that about? He&rsquo;s not in your grade, he drove here,&rdquo;<br />\t&ldquo;Just a friend dad. Really just wanted to see if I was okay. Everyone at school knows I got expelled,&rdquo; he replied.<br />\t&ldquo;He one of the ones you smoked weed with?&rdquo; Fang asked.<br /><br />\tOnai smiled and shook his head, &ldquo;still not a rat, dad,&rdquo; he said then headed back upstairs.<br />\t&ldquo;Just so you know Onai, I&rsquo;m not a rat either. I wouldn&rsquo;t turn him in,&rdquo; he replied.<br />\t&ldquo;Good to know, but I&rsquo;m still not telling anyone who I was with,&rdquo; he said then headed upstairs.<br /><br />\tJust as soon as Onai sat down on the edge of his bed his door opened up. He rolled his eyes when his dad walked in.<br />\t&ldquo;Dad, I&rsquo;ve already told you I&rsquo;m not telling you or anyone who I was with,&rdquo; he said.<br />\t&ldquo;That&rsquo;s fine Onai. I&rsquo;m not going to pressure you into telling me or anyone. I understand that you want to keep your friends safe, especially one of the football stars. I smelled the weed on him at the door. I already know he was one of them. I don&rsquo;t care either. What I do care about is keeping you out of juvi or jail. I don&rsquo;t want to see your life ruined,&rdquo; he said.<br />\t&ldquo;What the fuck are you talking about dad? My life is ALREADY ruined because I took your car,&rdquo;<br />\t&ldquo;Your life isn&rsquo;t ruined, just the next few years are. Once you complete community service that record will be sealed and only top-tier government agencies can see it, FIB, CIA, NSA, etc., not even the military will be able to see the record and they can&rsquo;t keep you from enlisting because of the sealed record,&rdquo; Fang explained.<br />\t&ldquo;Okay dad,&rdquo; he replied with a slight smile.<br />\t&ldquo;Just one thing Onai,&rdquo; Fang said sternly.<br />\t&ldquo;What&rsquo;s that?&rdquo;<br />\t&ldquo;I don&rsquo;t ever want to see you smoking it or smell it on you. Just do that and we&rsquo;ll be fine. Okay?&rdquo; He replied.<br />\t&ldquo;Sure dad,&rdquo; he replied.<br />\t&ldquo;Good. Here&rsquo;s the cables for the TV back. I don&rsquo;t want to leave you without some type of entertainment,&rdquo; he said pulling out the power cable for the TV.<br />\t&ldquo;Thanks dad,&rdquo; he replied taking the bundled cable.<br />\t&ldquo;How&rsquo;s the electronics stuff going? That computer you were building,&rdquo; Fang asked.<br />\t&ldquo;Fucked. Blew out the high-voltage power supply. Have to rebuild it. But the electronics is going well overall,&rdquo; he replied.<br />\t&ldquo;Ah that&rsquo;s right. That was the loud bang a while back. One of the capacitors right?&rdquo;<br />\t&ldquo;Yup, and the transformer itself,&rdquo; Onai replied while trying to hook the power cable into the TV.<br />\t&ldquo;I&rsquo;m sure you&rsquo;ll get it right the next time,&rdquo;<br />\t&ldquo;Yeah. I emailed Lamar about the problem a couple of days ago. No idea if he&rsquo;s emailed me back though,&rdquo; Onai said while going through the setup menu of the TV then satellite settings.<br />\t&ldquo;You haven&rsquo;t checked email?&rdquo; Fang asked.<br />\t&ldquo;No I haven&rsquo;t dad, even though I can check it on the computer in my electronics lab. You said no electronics so I haven&rsquo;t used it,&rdquo;<br />\t&ldquo;Ah, I forgot that you had that computer down there. Thanks for being honest Onai,&rdquo;<br />\t&ldquo;Yeah, no problem. You going to take that one too?&rdquo;<br />\t&ldquo;No. Keep it. Check your email to see if Lamar has contacted you about it. Just no playing games or anything not electronics related,&rdquo;<br />\t&ldquo;Thanks dad,&rdquo;<br />\t&ldquo;No problem. I&rsquo;ll leave you alone now. Love you son,&rdquo; he said.<br />\t&ldquo;Love you too dad. See you later,&rdquo; he replied then laid back down on the bed.<br /><br />\tFang headed to the door and opened it. He looked back and had one final question. &ldquo;Hey Onai. How did weed taste? Did you like it? I&rsquo;m just curious,&rdquo; he asked.<br />\t&ldquo;Uh. Not really. I couldn&rsquo;t keep from coughing and it tasted weird. I&rsquo;m not sure how to explain the taste,&rdquo; he replied.<br />\t&ldquo;Ah okay. See you later kiddo,&rdquo; Fang said then left the room.<br /><br />***<br /><br />Monday, October 28, 2030 <br /><br />\tThe following Monday Onai started his home schooling along side his sister Laika and her friend Tamra. However, since he was in a different grade he wouldn&rsquo;t be studying with the two girls. Fang explained to Onai that even though he was expelled he could still do home schooling and possibly not be held back. It would depend on if he passed the school test to allow him to move on to the next grade.<br /><br /></span>",
