At least it's not Colorado here ...

[reiye]

It's been years since she has set foot in America again after all those years in Hiroshima, and she can't say she misses it, neither can she say she remembers much about it really. She was too young back then to remember all the details regarding what had happened to her father. She barely remembers what he looks like, not like she cares too much though. She did sometimes wonder how he is currently; however, she never really wants to see him. He's a complete stranger to her after all those years of separation. Plus, he has never tried to contact them all these years anyway. Well, at least it's not Colorado here, and she'll never see him again. Hopefully. For her mother's sake anyway.

At any rate, the seventeen-year-old young lady pushed open the front doors of Hircine High, and entered the school in a somewhat indifferent manner. She doesn't seem to be nervous or anything. In fact, she seems to be totally unconcerned to the fact that she's coming to a new school. And all in truth, she doesn't mind. It never bothers her much for it makes no difference for her. She can fluently speak, write, and read in the English language, so she should be fine, despite her short stay in America since her birth.

Letting a soft sigh escape, though barely loud enough to be heard by anyone even if they're right beside her, Reiye looked around seemingly uninterested. She personally has never heard of this school, neither does she know why her mother chose San Francisco either, but of course, that isn't all that important to her anyway. The pink-haired teenager can see students all around, all doing their own thing. With the number of students out, she can safely guess class hasn't started yet. The reason she 'guessed' was because she has no idea what the time is right now. Sure she has her cell phone, but she hasn't changed the time yet from that of Hiroshima. She did just get off the plane yesterday morning. Why she chose to come to school already, now that's something no one knows except for herself.

Reiye now proceeded forward, her gaze dead straight, never seeming to wander for a bit. Her facial expression was quite apathetic, almost to the point of being emotionless. She was actually quite a sight, with her sharp coloured hair that is, in addition to the length. In no way does she look Japanese, especially when she's wearing her greyish blue contacts, covering her natural brown orbs. She continued walking, apparently taking her sweet time. She seemingly knows where she is going, although she really doesn't since she's new, but like every new student there is, she's heading towards the office to get what she needs. The quicker she starts school here, the faster she'll get used to this new environment. And whether she'll like it or not, who knows.

[taru]

Taru was thinking to hiimself for a few moments about how the office staff were such ass holes. He couldn't believe how hard it was just to ask for a schedule. Taru holding his class schedule in his hands walked out of the office focus on reading the schedule and nothing else at the moment. Taru was thinking how the hell is he supposed to get to all these classes in time. Taru looked at one of his classes and then looked at his cell phone for the time. Shit! He started running with his schedule at three quarters speed he took a turn and started increasing his speed little by little still glancing at the schedule. Taru then he realized he was running right into Reiye only a few inches before impact. He couldn't move out of the way and at that second he shot his hands out to the side so he wouldn't hit her at the impact with his fists or elbows. His eyes widened a moment before the impact between him Reiye.

I sighed as I walked through the hallways of the new high school, though having graduated, I wanted to come by and look around. The place was so different from Varron and a lot of the student didn't transfer to this school, so a lot of faces were either unknown or unimportant. Walking down each hallway as though I was lost, which of course I was, I made my way past students and teachers, zoned out as I listened to the music that was drowning out everything including me, the usual songs were bumping in my earphones as I walked around aimlessly from one place to another.

(Damn this is boring. What can I do in such a whack place, Can't do anything.) I sighed as my thought resounded in my head, it was right. I couldn't think of anything to do in this new school but walk around aimlessly. I yawned shortly and kept walking around, (I could always just talk to random people and pretend like I'm interested.) I thought, I shrugged my shoulders and nodded once, (Might as well.)

Walking down a random hallway, I saw regular students all either talking and walking, or just talking, nothing really interesting happening. No one really caught my attention, until I saw a young woman with face as blank as mine, I thought (Well heres a girl who can out grill a guy anyday.) I snickered quietly to myself as I approached her. Her eyes struck me at first because of their color, a beautiful greyish blue, then I looked deeper at her eyes and noticed that they had an outline like a contact lens, I thought to myself (Well she still has really nice eyes anyway.)

I approached her casually and I took my right earphone out and I spoke to her asking...

"Hi. Umm Do you know where the office is, I'm lost."

[reiye]

Reiye's eyes caught onto a figure running in her direction, but unfortunately for her, her eyes weren't quick enough for her attention was on something else at that moment. Either way, the two collided as Reiye was pushed back, eventually falling onto her bottom. The other most likely wouldn't have fallen due to how petite Reiye is. Wincing mentally at the sudden impact, she lets out a soft groan, somewhat annoyed at the fact that this happened to her on the first day of attending Hircine. Just what kind of school is this?! That was what came into her mind just now.

Anyway, she quickly brushed herself off as she turned to look at the individual whom she had collided with just a short moment ago. Noticing a male, and a Japanese too, she stood up without saying anything. Not that it's a good start for this school to be bumping onto someone out of nowhere, but she can't deny the fact that she really didn't care all too much. She wasn't one to dwell much on anything. Well, maybe except for one, but right now, she does not wish to think about it. I mean, isn't this the reason her mother chose to leave Hiroshima? She sighed mentally as she shrugged the thought off.

Reiye brushed her hair away, making sure they don't bother her at the moment when a male voice could be heard near her. She was sure it wasn't from the one whom she had collided with though, due to the direction the voice had come from. She glanced in that direction, noticing another male, althought he doesn't quite look like a student here. He seems older than a normal high school student, but whether he is one or not, she wouldn't really know now would she? At any rate, hearing his question, she would almost laugh. Of course, she didn't do anything like that on the exterior. Asking her? A new student? Where the office is? He must be kidding right? But then again, she supposed others wouldn't know she's new. Shrugging the thought off, she opened her mouth to respond.

"I don't think I'll be of any help to you." she replied. Her tone of voice is somewhat plain, yet her voice itself is beautiful. How else would she be able to be a vocalist? She paused before continuing. "That's the place I'm looking for at the moment." she finished quietly, her voice almost monotoned.

~Well don't they all just look so happy to see me.~ Malikai thought to himself as he walked in the main door. It seemed people were less happy to see him than usual. Usually it was just the jealous boyfriends of the girls that loved his singing voice but today, today many male and female a like were glaring and talking. His little action of defending to the point of openly siding with a Varronite against Taj.

On a personal note the school year the past few days was going great. Many new allies, a pissed off idiot, one angry Pillar, and a Captain who now knew Hiricians could willingly side with Varronites in a fight. Any man that could top that in just two days was a god in Malikai's book and worth his respect.

He did however keep walking toward his locker his emerald contacts moving side to side, searching the faces of all those who might attack. Thats when he saw it, a Flash of pink. Malikai's eyes kept moving until his mind had just processed what he had seen and shot back to where he was just looking. He had to stop moving to do this, and turn his head slightly to find the pink thing he had just seen.

That "thing" as his mind so nicely categorized it was actually a bright pink head of hair on a girls head. His eyes widened in surprise at what he was seeing. The girl was short and skinny with an Asiatic look to her face. Making her either Siberian, a mix, or an Asian that was trying hard to look white. Malikai assumed it was the last option just because it would seem to work out better that way. When he came to this decision he began to come to other conclusions about the girl.

Like him she seemed to hide who she was, the hair was a great indicator of this. She was either trying to bring attention to herself or she was trying to change the saying from follow the little white rabbit down the rabbit hole to follow the little pink bunny. Still none the less she was at least bound to be more interesting than the rest of these people be it only to serve as entertainment.

Making his way over toward the girl he saw one boy stop to talk to her and another about to run into all three. ~Well it looks like this girl is already causing trouble...better do something about it~ He thought to himself and took a deep breath in order to yell from the 5 foot distance he now stood. "Look- He started to yell but it was to late and the girl had fallen on her ass.

~What a shame~ He thought to himself and made his way over to the girl who was now standing and talking to the other boy who seemed to have gotten her attention. "Are you alright miss?" He asked faking a concerned tone as he had done many a time before while really laughing inside his own head.

[taru]

Taru got up and his eyes we're widened with confusion. He heard the students we're talking about the office and then Taru realized he hit a cute girl that seemed like some sort of asian. He brushed himself up and looked at the girl.

"Hey are you alright? And I know where the office is. Follow me."

Taru gently grabbed Reiye by the wrist and motioned the other guy to come with him and the girl. Taru forgot to introduce himself to Reiye so he looked back at the girl and grinned.

"Nee-chan. (Now in Japanese) What part of japan are you from. Oh yeah by the way I'm Taru. "

Taru waited for her response as he tugged softly her by the wrists so they could go to the office. He probaly would be late but at least he could help someone from the motherland. He chuckled to what he just thought .

[reiye]

Reiye's attention was soon taken away from Carlos when another male voice could be heard. She turned slightly, though only moving her head as her cold blue eyes gazed into emerald ones. She knew at first glance that this new individual is also wearing contacts, a beautiful colour at that. Her face remained somewhat emotionless as she was about to answer.

"I'm fine." she responded plainly, her tone of voice the same one as before. The young lady could sense something about this student. She wasn't quite sure what, but she somehow felt a similarity. It's just one of those things you get sometimes when you meet someone for the first time she supposed.

At any rate, she was about to study him slightly when she felt someone grabbing onto her wrist, pulling her away. Turning her full attention to what had just happened, Reiye noticed the student who had crashed onto her was holding onto her, saying that he knows where the office is. Raising a brow mentally, Reiye frowned, though barely visible on her face. She pulled her hand away forcefully, obviously somewhat annoyed at this student for first crashing onto her, and then just grabbing onto her wrist out of nowhere.

"Who do you think you are?" she stated a bit coldly. It sounded more like a statement than a question though, for her voice was somewhat low. Reiye's greyish blue eyes revealed no anger, just slight irritation.

So much for the first day of school ... how fortunate I am. she thought sarcastically.

((ooc: Uh yeah, I didn't proofread this, so if there's any grammatical errors and such, just bear with me >.>))

[pinefresh]

Well what could he say about this girl? She was trying hard to hide something, something she did not want anyone else to know. His guess was pain of some sort. Malikai could identify with that simply because his hair and eyes were altered to hide who he once was. By doing so he had hid his pain of his parents deaths from the rest of the world. The only people who knew and would ever know were his family and they would not talk about it anyways. Violent murder of a husband and wife was not what you called good dinner conversation. Especially around their only son who was clearly not taking the fact well at all. He never used to be a violent person, just quiet and fought only in defense. With his parents gone truly all he did was fight and his actions at Hircine so far were good indication of that.

Her response to his question was plain, as if to hide any feeling she had about it. The fact was in itself intriguing and brought about many more questions Malikai now felt he needed answers too. For starters, if you’re going to be so distant toward people then why would you dye your hair a color that attracts the attention of others? She seemed to be a walking barely talking oxymoron; then again, she could just be a very shy girl. It would make sense considering she stood barely over 5 feet and looked like a pencil with a pink eraser on the top.

~Nice comparison, it actually sounds logical~ He thought to himself as he looked at her maintaining the hold she held on his eyes. Hers were also contacts as could be seen from the slight brown rim around the iris. The color she chose to wear was a grayish blue. The color was cold and devoid of anything within much like she was trying to play herself off as. ~Pain, it has to be pain she tries so hard to hide~ His mind shot back at him. He was so sure of it should he ever wish to call her on it he would do so without any hesitation. Which was against his character when it came to dealing with the fairer sex; he was always more careful and thoughtful of what he said to them.

He was however curious as to what she saw in his eyes. Could the fact he was laughing at her through them at her be noticeable? Could she see what he tried to hide behind his contacts that could only be seen in his actual blue green eyes? He was about to ask her when the boy that ran smack into her grabbed her and began to ask stupid questions before she pulled away. Her tone though still rather plain seemed to bring about some anger of sorts, something she was unable to hide. ~At least she’s human~ He though to himself as he watched her dispelling the fleeting thought that she was robot sent to kill them all. With all the advancements in the world today, a killer robot was not so far fetched anymore.

“Don’t worry, I’ll make sure she makes it to the office you may run along.” Malikai stepped up moving now within striking distance of Taru (OOC: sorry to use your name but there is one other guy here and this avoids confusion) should he disagree. There were no negotiations with Malikai when it came to such stupid things especially when he could get a pillar here to fight should Taru try anything. For Malikai it was a win/win situation that he came out on top of any way you looked at it. So really the next move was either up to Carlos to do something about Taru or for Taru to try something, either way the odds looked good for Malikai to have some fun at Taru’s expense.
