[ WP ] You are a human student at an all monster school . However , instead of being an outcast , you become the most popular one there .

I began lunch period sitting by myself. It was n't until Eddy Brayger, a furry green beast set his tray at the edge of my table. He smiled revealing row of impeccably sharp teeth. 
 
 `` You know the big'M' on the clock tower stands for'monster' right?'' The oaf bellowed at a volume obviously inappropriate for a personal conversation. 
 
 `` I'm aware,'' I said smugly, looking down at my food while watching the chlorine bleached Ugg boot out of my peripheral vision. 
 
 `` And just,'' He leaned in closer and allowed his surprisingly minty breath to waft over me, `` What is a sad sack of mince meat like you capable of anyways?'' 
 
 By then the whole school had gathered round. I knew that they all had been wondering the same thing. I do n't blame them. My small soft body and unimpressive limbs were an insult to every creature that walked the halls of this place. 
 
 `` You see, I've done my research,'' I stated with a slow confident cadence. `` You are all capable of doing horrible things. I've seen the videos of goats and cows being ripped apart. I've seen you fight lions and bears.'' 
 
 Multiple `` yeah's'' and `` that's right's'' sounded off in crowd. 
 
 I stood up and began to point into the mob, `` But if I asked you to turn on your own, would you do it? If I asked you to kill your friends; your own blood, would you have the guts?'' 
 
 Eddy slammed chia pet fist into the table. `` Do n't be ridiculous. We have enough to deal with, why would we kill each other?'' 
 
 `` Because, that's what we humans consider a monster,'' I glared into his eyes, `` Our history books are filled to the brim with the blood of our own and continue to be filled to this day.'' I looked out into the crowd. The jeering had grown to nervous whispers. 
 
 `` You all have survived by working together, using your claws and teeth to fight the elements and forces that oppose you. We humans,'' I paused, `` we have built kingdoms on the backs of our own kind. We have walls lined with bones of the slaves that built them. We have graves of full men and women who were killed simply because they did n't fit a standard. To this day, we constantly trade oil for blood.'' 
 
 Silence gripped the audience. Eddy retreated from the table and stood with the rest. 
 
 I picked up my tray and scanned the crowd once again. In a serious, stoic tone I explained, `` In my opinion, you're not monsters. I've studied your history. I've read your doctrines. And I've found that you are more `` human'' than we can ever hope to be.'' 
 
 With that, I turned and walked out of the cafeteria leaving behind a room of curious murmurs. It was n't long until the double doors burst open behind me with monsters pouring out and shouting questions at the new kid in town.
