Stupid Freshmen…

This bus always takes forever to get here, Michelle thought as she sat outside the Wilk. She was surrounded by the usual crowd of UVU students, waiting for the bus to go to school. She saw a lot of familiar people, but also some new people as well. Oh well. There’re tons of students that go there. 

Meanwhile the lone werewolf was on campus. Having lost its two partners, it remains as the last one. As it took a look around, it saw countless dinners just waiting to be eaten. But no, I must resist, it thought, until the right moment…

The bus finally came and Michelle got on. She was jostled to and fro on the crowded bus, barely finding a bar to hold on. It wouldn’t’ve been so bad, but the traffic today was worse than usual. This is going to be a long ride, she thought. 

The werewolf was honing in on its next prey. It found the one that looked the most delicious and discovered a way to attack them while alone. It planned to follow them around campus, offer them a soda randomly, and when they get up to go to the bathroom during class, BAM! Dinner! Ooh, it was fool-proof!

To make Michelle’s morning even worse, there was a whole group of cop cars on University checking vehicle. That would explain the traffic, she thought. The next thing she knew, cops were boarding the crowded bus with dogs barking like crazy. They were clearly searching for drug trafficking. The cops couldn’t figure out who exactly was the guilty one since the bus was so crowded. So to make things easy, they arrested everyone on board and did individual searches at the Big House. Consequently, Michelle didn’t make it to school. She was stuck at the police station all day…

“Shoot! I lost them,” thought the last werewolf. “Why does this campus have to be so flipping crowded? It’s not even the passing time between classes!”

Sure enough, campus was completely packed with students. It was unusual for this time of day. The werewolf walked quickly to follow its prey. It surprised itself at its dodging skills by weaving in and out of students and teachers. It nearly tripped over the kid with crutches, but made a great recovery. But as soon as it got close, a whole swarm of freshman got in its way.

“So many stupid freshman! Next time, I picking them off…”

The crowd passed and the prey was far away again. The werewolf quickened its pace again. It was getting closer… 100 feet… 50 feet… 20 feet…but just as it got near, a snow plow came right in the way. 

“What the heck??” 

It passed, though slowly. It had to go back and forth along that path several times to make sure the snow was all gone. 

“Perfect timing for an OCD plow driver…”

Once again, the prey was a good distance away. Deciding to not lose it again, the werewolf set out on a full sprint. It got close and closer to the prey. A few steps behind it, it slowed down. It opened its backpack to pull out the bottle of soda it bought.

“Are you serious?” it said loudly.

The soda had exploded in the werewolf’s backpack and got all its contents soaked. More importantly though, it couldn’t offer it to the prey and therefore had no way to attack alone. 

The Prey turned around."Is everything all right?"

"Yes, leave me alone!"

"Oh, I'm sorry. It's all right, we all have bad days…"

Oh you wouldn't even know, the werewolf thought. There werewolf started to get nervous. Weird things were happening all over. Admitting defeat, the werewolf headed home. It decided to lie low for a while, lest other mysterious forces decide to intervene again…
