Let's All Have a Blast!!! (IC)

"It's the start of the new year!!!" Aveline thought to herself excitedly, clenching her fists tightly around the guardrails along the edge of the tender ship that was currently transporting her and some of her fellow students to the island from which contained the brand new school that she was enrolled in. The water off the western coast of Hawaii was crystal clear and smelled incredibly fresh, a perfect match for her pleasant emotions that she was already experiencing. Being an overly optimistic morning person, it seemed unlikely that anything at all bad could happen anymore. She was even brave enough to go live here for the entire school year without brining along Pabby, her housekeeping robot that has been with her ever since she was a little girl. For one thing she expected to make lots of new friends to help replace him, and for another she was wanting to start over from the less them pleasant experiences that she had at home. She, along with the school, was coming in brand new. How this would all play out would certainly be an amazing experience.
.
"I see it!" She shouted loud enough for everyone on the boat to hear, bright green eyes widening and her right hand pointing in front of her to the grey smudge on the horizon that was slowly drawing closer. She tapped the girl next to her on the shoulder a few times and let out a bright smile once she finally got her attention. The girl gave a "good for you" look before turning back to playing with the holographic projections on her phone. That was odd. There were still students like her going to this school? Aveline didn't take offense to this, but was slightly disappointed. She glanced around the boat for the first time since she got on, having been too busy taking in the sights, only to see a lot of the other students in a similar state, or otherwise looking bored and impatient. Some of them shared that optimistic expression that Aveline had, but those students were few and far between. One of the older boys had his feet up on the seat in front of him and was blowing his bubblegum into a huge pink blob dangling in front of his face. Strange. Today was a good day, so everyone should be trying to enjoy it to the fullest.
.
Not knowing how to cheer everyone up quite yet, she turned her attention back in front of her in order to watch the approach. She began to play with her golden colored pigtail that was long enough to have fallen into her lap, so she twirled it around in her fingers as she waited. As they got even closer she could see a crowd of students gathered around the wooden docks. The school itself was concealed within the trees besides a lone grey steeple visible off in the distance. Luckily it appeared to be a walk-able distance from the shore. Without cars on the island, that would obviously be their only mode of transportation.
.
"Welcome to New Peak High," an older man with a fancy suit, top had, and graying hair said politely as their boat "parked" next to the wooden walkway. She grinned at how "English" he appeared. "The main building will be open in 40 minutes, so everyone is free to wait here or explore the island a bit before heading to class at 7:00. I hope you enjoy my school. Let's all work together to bring the world together for a bright new future!"
.
Wait..."my school"...was the principal, owner of both the school and the island itself, personally greeting all of the students? She liked his style and could feel good vibes coming from him. "Yes, let's!" She replied brightly, nodding her head and giving off a warm smile. A couple of the students around her only let out a sigh. The ramp was now extended so she was able to stroll out onto the island and stretch her legs at long last. She shook his hand firmly before making her way further into the island. She didn't have any friends here yet and didn't know what to do, so she just moseyed around taking in the sights for the time being.

Yuki stared blankly forward looking many of the students who will be attending the New Peak High School, the same one she will be at for the next year. She couldn’t believe that these people were some of the only ones she would know for a long time. There were no robots or anything of that sort either. “This'll be an interesting year... Maybe.” She says to no one in particular. It’s not like she had a friend who she could communicate with and not to mention most of the other people around didn't seem like people she could get along with. She sat at the back of the boat and surrounded herself with girls, even if they were not friend materials they could still act as shields against the undesirables. She didn’t want to have deal with many of the males if she didn’t have to. After what happened in the past she found it hard to even want to look at a male.

From ahead of her she heard some girl with a cheery voice shout, "I see it!" Yuki's first thought was that the girl sounded much too cheery. It wasn't something Yuki would be able to imitate. Her second thought was, "She's a really loud person." Yuki's sound-reducing headphones nulled general noise enough so it wouldn't hurt her much too oversensitive ears. The downside is that sometimes when people speak she doesn't exactly hear them. After her thoughts Yuki turned to see what the girl saw. At first there was nothing but the blue ocean and sky. Eventually a small bit of some other color came into view. "I see it too..." Yuki mumbled to herself.

Eventually the boat reached the docks of the island she looked at all the people there. "There's one thing I don't look forward to." She again mumbled to herself commenting on her situation. As she looked over she saw a man in what she assumed was a typical outfit for an older western gentleman. She could not hear the words he said, but she could "read" them through his lips, "New Peak High. The main building will be open in 40 minutes," She had a feeling of tiredness wipe over her face and her eyes closed a second. She opened them and continued, "...to wait here or explore the island a bite before heading to class at 7:00. I hope you enjoy my school. Let's...." She looked away at this point pretty much already figuring it wasn't any new information she would need. The rest of the world seemed a slight nothing to her as she departed the boat almost last and preceded to look around for a secluded spot she could lay and relax without her headphones on.

The hard of hearing girl found a more secluded spot beside some trees where she didn't see or more importantly hear people. After contemplating what to do the decision came down to laying and relaxing for a bit before class started. Being around people gets tiring fast having to wear those headphones all day. She already knew there were going to be some people who thought that she was just listening to music or something of the sort and she couldn't blame them very much on that assumption. She just lay there on the grass with the wind going past her thinking about the rest of the day.

Xander looked around, the boat was just as full as it always was. It was always something that surprised him, he couldn't believe how well his father was doing now, the man has almost done a whole one-eighty. he pushes his raven black hair out of his eyes and looked out over the ocean, it always felt so refreshing coming back, the breeze from the air was wonderful. He wasn't paying much attention to much else, he had his music player going full blast and just watched everyone, from the newbies, all of them looking at the island and school in wonder, to everyone like him, either who have seen the place a million times... or even more so than that. he smiled at that, wow this si his last year... what was he going to do afterwards. Xander took one ear plug out and listened to the dean...principal whatever, and shook his head, then was startled when a girl a little bit in front of him almost yelled "Yeah let's" and he shook his head again a chuckle escaping his lips. "Well someone has a lot of energy."He says chuckling again. He walks away once the speech was done and sits down not far from the docks and starts reading a book he's been trying to finish but haven't had time. He puts his earbud back in and turns on his music again.

Anneliese sat on the boat as the older man gave his speech. She keyed in on the fact that there was forty minutes between this moment and the time the can go into the school building. “Let's all work together to bring the world together for a bright new future!” The man finishes and goes off to whatever it is he does. Anneliese looks around at the people to try and gauge what she should expect to encounter. One thing she notices is the diversity of nationalities. This was quite a bit different than even her time in the U.S. She noticed different accents in everyone's speech. It was more of an interesting thing to her. The people seemed smart enough. Enough for her not to be condescending all the time. She noticed there was someone reading a book on her walk away from the docks. He looked like an upperclassman and someone she didn't want to bother anyhow. There were some boys showing pictures to each other as well, some people could make fast friends. "I wonder who I'll meet today." She chuckles a little and checks out the sights of the place before she heads to class.

Paige was tapping her metallic fingers on the handrail of the boat. It was a habit she'd developed since "the accident" as her father called it. She found the sound of metal tapping on metal soothing and at the moment, she needed some comforting. She wasn't scared, just annoyed. She'd been forced to attend this stupid school in the middle of the sea, added was so bloody hot! She missed the Welsh weather... Well, maybe not the rain but a nice, cool breeze rather than this heat!

She looked around at the others, in the hopes of taking her mind off of the weather. Across from her sat an oriental chick with some kind of headphones on. Probably a Jap... She thought to herself. Japan was the only country really doing anything these days and even they were slowing down.

As the island came into view, a blonde girl with a nasty American accent chirped up. "I can see it!"
Paige groaned as she heard that voice. It had the sound of everything she hated in life wrapped up in one irritating little parcel. She was tempted to retort but decided to instead mutter to herself about all of the new students having eyes.

She turned to the old man, at least by Paige's standards, as he started his little speech. Paige listened, if only to bolster her dislike for the school. "Let's all work together to bring the world together for a bright new future!" Did the man spout that much bullshit every time he spoke? If so, Paige wouldn't be surprised if the toilets didn't clog every few weeks. Of course, the Yank (as Blondie was now and always would be known as to Paige, no matter whether she wanted to be called that or not) was soaking up his words, like a sponge soaking up a puddle. The year had only just begun and Paige had already found a nemesis. It could be worse...

Kat had arrived early. Her mother had hired a private helicopter to drop her off directly at the school. She had found her way to the library and immersed herself. She easily found a Russian book, in fact, an entire section of them, and was currently reading a rather interesting book on narwhals. She enjoyed the library; it was quiet. That isn't to say she didn't like noise, she just believed that there was a time and a place for it.

She was almost half way through when the distant sound of chatter and boats thudding into the pier echoed around the library. Katerina inwardly sighed. It seemed her alone time was up. She replaced the book, remembering her page number and then skipped outside to see the others.

Soung Hei Ryung strutted gracefully into the last of the boats provided by the school to leave that day. She didn't want to have to wait on the island very long before classes began in order to avoid having nothing to do but stand around talking to the annoyances that would be her new classmates. She could put on a good act that she enjoyed it, but that would certainly not be the case. All she wanted was to get a good education at the top of her class and then be on her "merry" way. The school, and by extension the rest of the students, were simply tools to make that happen. Weak, useless tools had no reason to be interacted with any more then necessary. Some might prove themselves over time, but she doubted these people's capabilities. She could tell just by looking at them that they were not "cream of the crop" material. She let out an inaudible sigh over the chatter of the students as she began looking for her seat in the crowded boat. It appeared like a lot of students had the same idea in choosing this last boat to get on. It quickly came to her attention that all of the seats were filled, so there were only spots left to stand and grab onto the railings. Soung was certainly capable of standing, being physically active, but why should she have to? Spotting a potential victim, she made her way to a particularly timid looking young girl with short blonde hair sitting on the aisle seat. She bent down well into her personal space, putting her lips right up to her ears.

"What's a freshmen like you doing taking a seat and leaving her elder left standing?" Soung whispered creepily so that only the girl could hear was what was being said. With her long black hair falling down across her pale face as she bent over, she appeared like that creepy girl from the Ring; that movie from long ago that was still semi-popular even today. After all, a lot of the oldies were still getting remakes because new ideas were hard to come by. Although the Ring girl was Japanese and she was actually South Korean, a westerner like her would unlikely be able to tell the difference. Not that all of this mattered much anyways, as a random girl bending over to whisper such a statement could cause anyone to be freaked out, even if she looked like Hello Kitty. No, scratch that, especially if she looked like Hello Kitty.

"Eek!" the girl squealed, practically leaping out of her seat. The blonde turned nervously to face her, or rather look in her general direction but avoid direct eye contact for very long. "U-u-umm...m-my mistake. I-I-I'll move..." She stuttered in a British accent. Although this was a multi-national school, there were a lot of students from America, Great Britain, France, a lot of Asian countries, then to a lesser extent everywhere else.

The girl sheepishly stumbled out of her chair and moved to a location as far away as she could, which wasn't too far given the size of the boat all these students were crammed into. Soung let out a sadistic smirk as she sat down in the newly vacated spot. It wasn't long before they began to make their journey over to the island to the school. During the trip she pulled out a small notebook and reviewed some material from last year, especially the more complex algebra equations, so that she would be at the top of her game from the get go. She couldn't afford to do poorly...literally, as her parents were only helping her out if she got good grades. She had trouble keeping any part time jobs long enough to support herself very much.

Before she knew it they were pulling in to their destination, a crowded dock from which students were slowly breaking off from into the trails in the woods in the direction of the school, which was currently ringing. A man that she recognized as the principal was there to introduce himself and his school and say that they only had 20 minutes left before classes would begin. Not wasting any time, she immediately headed for the school so that she could find a good seat.

[Pyromania99]

Yuki thought that she'd sat around long enough and put her headphones on. The soft, calming, ambient noise she heard disappeared by nothingness. She whispered to herself, "I'm glad I wear these. It would hurt to hear the noises of people.... But I wish I didn't have to." Her eyes close and open again. "There's nothing to do for now." She walked back into public where the other students were walking into the school building. "Was it that time already?" Yuki asked herself and then answered herself, "I guess. I wonder who's in my class." She ponders that while she leans against a wall close to the door. The practically deaf girl waits so she can enter the building without being bumped into.

Anneliese walks around the island to look at some of the sights of the place. "As interesting as this stuff is..." She sighs, "I'm more interested in the classroom." The German said as she was walking around. She looks at her phone to see the time. "It's time to head over to the school building I guess." The building is towering above her and not because she's a bit shorter than normal.... Or maybe it was. She tried her best to push through into the building and make it inside. What did she have to lose?

[Shadow D]

Xander smiled and closed the book, putting a bookmark in the book, and starts walking towards the building. He hadn't met anybody so far...but whatever he'd meet people soon. He stood up and dusted himself off, well guess it's time to head for class. He picks up his backpack and walks towards the building, he noticed a few people. Some in his class, they nodded and waved at him smiling. He smiled as well and noticed as someone pushed passed him

"Hey, be more careful." He says to a brown haired girl pushing past everyone. He shrugged not that it mattered. She may say something she may not.

[Pyromania99]

Anneliese looked up at the older student. "S-sorry. I'm just anxious to get in here is all." She said to this upperclassman she didn't recog... "I think I saw you reading on the dock didn't I?" The German girl asked, her accent was coming through but not all too heavily. "U-um... S-sorry, anyhow. I'll be more careful..." She continues to walk with the rest of the people instead of trying to push past to comply with the wishes of this upperclassman.
