I will add the pets later, but this is based partially on a true event- a guy from my grade tried to steal my hat from behind and without even thinking I got him in an armlock and took it back. I didn't think I could do that

Aralia sat back in her seat, eyes fleeting round the room as she half-listened to the teacher drone on about the feeding habits of slowworms. Most of the class were in various stages of boredom; one guy was even asleep on his desk. She rolled her eyes and pulled her jet-black hair into a ponytail. This assignment was obviously a waste of time.
But then she saw him. Like most of the class, his chin was resting on his hand and his eyes were half-closed, but beneath the lids his eyes were flitting about quickly. She scanned his clothes for a sign- anything- to tell her whether he was an Assassin or one of the Elite. An innocent-looking sword pendant lay at his throat and she made sure to discreetly hide her own cobweb one beneath her shirt.
At that point, the bell rang. As if he had sensed her gaze, he looked up at her as she gathered her books and his eyes drifted towards her throat, where a few silver strands of the fine web pendant still showed. She pulled up her collar and hurried out of the classroom.

Sonaro cursed himself for being so obvious. She would know that he knew about her now. That the Elite were on to her. Letting her see the pendant was bad enough, but now she would know for sure that he was an Elite spy.
As he followed her outside, hhe debated what to do. Should he kill her now and get it over with? No, that would attract too much attention. Should he get the headquarters to dispose of her quietly? No, people would wonder where she had gone.
By the time he had caught up to her, he had decided to befriend her and kill her later. He would be able to do it quietly and without too much fuss, and he could tell those who wondered that she had had to move away at short notice. He tapped her on the shoulder, and before he knew what was happening she had twisted his arm and placed a warning hand on his chest. She said nothing, but he understood her penetrating gaze.
As she released him and walked off, he rubbed his wrist and watched her.
That look had said,
Try anything and you're dead.
