The taxi pulled up infront of a large group of dorms. It seemed like a nice place to live. Hopefully no one inside was an ass. The backdoor of the taxi opened and out came Tony. He stuck his arm in the cab again to pull out two large black bags. It was mainly just filled with clothes and other possesions. Before he could walk towards the dorms he was yelled at.
"Hey!! How 'bout my money?! I don't drive in this yellow piece of crap for free ya know!"
Tony replied, "Alright Alright! Don't get your panties all in a twist. How much do I owe you?"
The taxi driver put her hand out towards Tony. "Thirty bucks."
"Thirty Bucks!? Are you joking?! We didn't drive that far! grrrr. Fine." He reached into the back of his pocket and pulled out his wallet. Out of the wallet came a twenty and a ten. He regretfully handed it over to her. It was time for a smart ass remark. "F*** you, have a nice day." The driver's eyes became wide and yelled back at him, "What Was That?!" Tony smiled and this time said to her, "Thank you, have a nice day." He grinned at her and made his way towards the dorm.
The taxi took off and in a few moments it was out of his sight. Tony looked at all the dorms trying to find the one that was his. He moved his back and forth making sure he didn't miss it and kept a look of concentration. "Damn! Where is it?" After a few more minutes he was able to find it. Tony set his bags down by the door and reached into his pocket to grab his keys.
"What?! Where are my keys?" Little did Tony know they were attacthed to his bag which happend to be right next to him. Very smart moment for him.

"Che vita!" Jonas said to no one person in particular. He tugged a little on his black button-down short sleeve shirt, sucking on his Mountain Dew in his left hand. "Either my Zio Vince's check gets here or else I'm gonna have to pull some strings and get some quick cash." Normally, Jonas was more conservative with his money, but since he was on his own, Jonas had been a little more liberal with his spending. With that, Jonas tossed his billing statements on his desk and walked out of his room,
"Well, maybe walking around outside a little will help me forget." Jonas muttered as he threw his Converse all-stars on and walked out of his room, locking the door behind him. After feeling around in his pockets, Jonas smiled and pulled out a crumpled ten dollar bill out of his pants. "Ave Maria! Let's go get some tacos then, thanks to my good karma!" Jonas said a little louder to himself as he strolled out the door of the dorm complex. Suddenly, Jonas looked around and saw a Senior, probably Mexican or something, looking around frantically for his keys, yet, to Jonas' amusement, saw that they were hung neatly on his bags. As soon as the senior found them, Jonas drained his Mountain Dew and walked up to the new arrival.
"First day, mio amico?"

Tony hit himself in the head after seeing his keys were on his bag. He bent over to pick them and as he did, he could see someone walking towards. He put the keys back into his pocket and looked over at the stranger who had just shown up. When he heard him say "mio amico" Tony became a little confused for a second. He wasn't fluent in spanish, but he did know enough to tell that wasn't it. It sure did sound almost spanish, but most likely it would mean that this guy was probably Italian.
"Yeah actually it is, mi amigo."
I guess it was pretty obvious that it was his first day. The bags, losing the keys, and looking around for them like an idiot. It was always easy for people to tell it was his first day. He already had a first day of school five times at least. He still wasn't used to it though. Guess it was time for the routine of making new friends. He had no problem with it, but Tony had trouble keeping friends since he was constantly moving to new schools. Goodbyes were always a drag.
Tony extended his hand towards Jonas. "The name's Hernandez, Antonio Hernandez, but everyone justs calls me Tony."

"Jonas `Spartan` Vetrano, pleasure to meet you Tony." Jonas said as he reached his hand out to grasp Tony's. "I can't say that I'm a regular at this discarica di rifiuti of Hircine, but I have been around for a few weeks..." With that, Jonas pointed down at his slightly injured ankle, "and enough time to figure out who's who, " an oppertune reference to his inagural fight with the Irish giant Fletcher, which he had just began to get the flexibility in his ankle back. "Brutal place... just hope you know how to fight if you want to stay here." Jonas tossed his Dew can into a trash bin and glanced back at Tony, "Well, as long as you're here, I'm gonna go get some dinner, you wanna come with? It's got to be better than scrounging around for a meal in the vending machines."

Tony shook his hand and then looked at Jonas' busted ankles. Looked like it would be a rough stay here, but his time at 777 would keep him prepared for almost anything. Alot of the other students might be able to still kick his ass around, but Tony wasn't looking to fight anyone on the top of the food chain.
"I think I can handle myself for the most part. I just need to watch out for the bigger fish is all."
Dinner did sound good, but Tony needed to still settle into his new home. "Maybe some other time. I have to settle in here first. It's been a long day."

Jonas shrugged his shoulders, "Suit yourself Amico, just hit me up if you need anything." This didn't bug Jonas; he was too in the mood for somthing to eat than to make petty talk. Jonas moved past Tony and walked straight down the street, his mind full of food.
"Maybe a nice cheese steak would be better..."
OOC: sorry, short, didn't know what to add here.
