[b]Simon, Zarahk, John, Everyone[/b] Simon chuckled at the wing man comment. The thought of a sleepy statue and a hyper spider cruising for chicks was too funny. "You could always ask someone from the Fashion Club to make some custom stuff for you. I mean, it'd be glittery and full of pizazz, sure, bu-" CRACK-BZZZ The centaur winced as the speakers all around the school crackled and buzzed into life. What was it about school speakers that required them to open with an ear piercing sound ever time? A happy female voice bubbled over the speakers. "HELLOOOO FELLOW CLASS MATES! Welcome back to another wonderful year at Ouroboros Academy! I hope you all had a great vacation! At this time, we will ask that all students please begin moving to the Stadium, where we will commence the Opening Ceremony! For you newcomers who have NO IDEA where that is, FOLLOW THE GARGOYLES!" On cue, several gargoyles trailing brightly colored ribbons flew out from the rooftops, circling and guiding the crowd. Several landed on rooftop corners, gesturing the proper direction. The students surged, the chatter growing as Simon thrust the remaining flyers at Zarahk, leaping down the steps and nearly taking out a unicorn in the process. "Sorry! Zarahk, go ahead without me, I need to help Diana and the others close the booth. Nice seeing you again John! CRAP!" A minotaur bowled over the centaur, both landing in a heap. Simon's hand shot up. "I'M GOOD!" "Dammit Cloudbrain..." The speakers crackled a bit, the sounds of a brief struggle with some whining, followed by a male voice. "Oh shush, I let you do the opening. First year students are reminded that they must sit in the lower section of the stands. All clubs and sports teams, please close down your booths before leaving the commons." "You're no fun!" The speaker shut off with a loud snap. The booths were already collapsing as the entire student body moved towards in the direction of the Stadium, a gargantuan marble colosseum.
