Yua was embarrassed at this point and a deep red entered her cheeks as she looked to the seat in front of her to avoid the eyes of the girl she accidentally made fun of. She shook her head and a frown crossed her face before she had a chance to speak up.

“Well... I-i didn't mean it as a bad thing. I mean, I know not all of us have had the privileges that I've had as I’ve grown up.” she looked back at the girl with the blush still bright on her cheeks and tried to hold eye contact with the weird cat-girl. The girl had asked her if she lived in that town they just left and a small smile crossed her face.

“Well lived there I guess would be correct, and then again it wouldn't be. You see, I have moved around a lot my entire life as my mother went from town to town on business. I've “lived” in a lot of places, but I’ve never really had a place to call my own.” her smile waned she looked to the window beyond the girl and stared out it.

“We moved there rather recently. But now I get to go to this school with others like me.” her smile came back to her lips as she brought her eyes back to the girl. She touched her hair again, worried that the stands where out of place once more. She smoothed it over a little before she brought her hands to her lap and crossed them over one another. The light changed in the tunnel as the driver spoke and her eyes grew wide in wonder. Her lips let out a gasp of excitement as the colors passed over her eyes and she nearly jumped towards the cat-girl and to the window to look at it closely.

“Oh wow! Look Ellie, look! We must be close now!” the words fell from her lips as quick as lightning. Her knees where on the seat and her hands where pressed against the glass. She was nearly across the other girls lap, thought at this point she had nearly forgotten herself as she watched the lights go by.

A thoughtful frown crossed Ellie's face as she nods, "I... understand that.... the moving around I mean... My mom could never hold down a job when I was little... we were constantly moving... And then when she kicked me out I never stopped... except for a short time here and there... there was one time I was picked up as a stray cat... that only lasted a week though... their little kid almost tore my tail off..." she mumbles the last bit, a hand reaching back to gently touch the bottom of her back, "I hissed at him and was back out on the street in an instant...." she continues, grumbling before looking out the window, head cocking to the side a bit as she approaches the tunnel... It was amazing how people managed to keep tunnels from filling back in... She had numerous burrows in the past... spent a few nights as a mole hiding out in abandoned tunnels... But the way humans managed to make such large versions keep from caving in fascinated her... she was always nervous of the rabbit barrows caving in on her and trapping her... Until she learned to effectively dig for herself... Her favorites were the meerkats though... Although they were iffy about the newcomer... It was very interesting to watch...

It takes her a moment to gather her thoughts, realizing that the driver was talking... Something about magic mumbo jumbo... she wasn't really sure, she had missed most of it and just brushed it off as she leaned against the window and stared at the quickly approaching tunnel in silence... A little nagging desire in the back of her mind making her want to poke her head out of the window and feel the wind i her face but she easily represses it.

As the bus enters the tunnel and the light show begins she visibly jumps in her seat, obviously not expecting the lights but once the initial surprise fades her eyes widen in fascination as she stares, entranced out the window... For a whole half a minute before she's snapped out of it by her personal bubble being intruded on by the girl beside her... Her whole body tenses as she presses back into the seat, her heartbeat instantly skyrocketing as she stares straight again at the seat in front of her, doing her best to just ignore her exploding bubble... But before long her eyes begin to wander... Starting at the skirt that just barely covered the girl's rump... And moving up her curves.... She took note of damn near every detail of this girl's nearly immaculate appearance... even taking a moment to envy the purple flower pin in her hair... Of course the description of this sounds like it were a smooth little display like the TV shows do when the main character feels love at first sight... This was more like a frantic -OH DEAR GOD SHE'S SO CLOSE TO ME WHAT DO I DO?? WHERE DO I LOOK?? SHOULD I MOVE? SHOULD I STAY STILL?? AAAAH SOMEBODY SAVE ME!!!! oh wow... she's really pretty... BUT OH GOD SHE'S IN MY SPACE WHAT DO I DO??- So... about as far from smooth and calm as possible.

"As important to you as your life?" Felix stared at the instrument for a while, then looked back at Yumi, "Ah you must be a true artist. You should let me hear your music sometime?" He had more on the topic that he could have talked about, but was distracted by hearing others on the bus talk about what was going on onside, he turned to the window, and was relatively unimpressed, sure it was beautiful, and artistic, but so was he, and the beautiful young girls on the bus were much easier on the eyes, and by the way they acted, he was sure that they had more colour as well. Yup, magic was art and nice, but the ladies, ah, that is true beauty. Felix found himself sitting back a bit, glancing outside, then looking at everyone on the bus. He would speak again, but odds are most people would think he was talking about the colours from outside, "Truly beautiful."

The light show in the end didn't turn out to be very long. Or at least for Joshua it did not. They exited through the tunnels with the driver giving little to no explanation of what just happened even if someone asked him. He instead opened the door at the end of a rather large cliff face. "Well then kids it's been fun....if you don't like this place I SUPPOSE I will see you back here in a month. Have fun." He said patiently as he chuckled to himself loudly and folded his legs onto his chair. "Yeah nice isn't a word I'd use." Joshua stated as he grabbed his bags deftly and jumped up onto the seat in front of him. "Sorry Akame I'm a bit impatient." He said with a smile as he quickly grabbed his bags from where he used to sit and deftly pushed himself off of the seat and onto the middle of the walkway. "So good luck kid and don't push your luck." The Driver said as Joshua grunted indifferently and walked over of the bus as quick as he could and then immediately went over to the cliff face and looked down to see a large blood red looking sea. "Oh joy of all the wonders in the world we get stuck in hell." he said to himself with snark in his voice as he looked at it in half wonder half annoyance. "This cliff has a pretty large fall if you fall down it you'll probably break a couple of bones." Joshua thought to himself as he backed away and looked towards the pathway. "Well better get moving!" Joshua said as he calmly walked over the worn path that was surrounded by a forest on either end. "Blood red sea....god forsaken forest. Yep this is definitely a school for monsters."

As the lights disappeared and was replaced by a rather creepy landscape and blood red sea, Yumi started to put her smaller body back into her bag. It was an. . . Amusing trip. She was ready to get to the school. However, there was but one obstacle in her way at this moment, "Would you return to your seat?" She asked the one foreign boy next to her. She had a mixed impression of the boy, as a annoying flirt and someone who appreciated art. If anything, her negative impression of him presided over the art one. The bus stopped and was ready to leave. If the boy didn't move, Yumi simply nudged him out of the way and left the bus.

Yua's excitement didn't stop the moment they left the tunnel. Instead she nearly jumped up from where she was over the other girl and nearly fell backwards instead of getting to her feet. Now that the bus was stopped she wanted to quickly go, and see this new world with all of it's new and interesting colors. She steadied herself on the top of the seat and then smiled down to Ellie, who she realized was freaking out a little, and she blushed.

“ Sorry about that! I just got excited and....” she mind raced to think of what to say to her new friend before she blows it all out of the water from her excitement. She grabbed up her handbag and then offered her hand out to the cat-girl.

“Let's go to school together! I'm sure there is so many more pretty things to look out on the way!” She took her hand back when she realized she was probably overstepping her bounds and she turned back to grab her other bags. She piled them on like she had on before and then turned back around and gave the girl another smile before she went to get off the bus. She nearly hopped off the bus as she ran towards the cliff edge to see the red sea.

“Oh my! It's so beautiful!” she heard the American talk about this world as if they just arrived in hell, before mocking the forest, and saying that it was truly a school for monsters. Yua only giggled and twirled with her bags. The weight of the bags made this little action seem clunky and she started to tilt to the side before she stopped.

“Of course it is! This world is beautiful! All of it is so pretty!” her smile was sincere as she spoke to the boy, even if he wasn't looking her way. She took a moment to take in the sea and the trees. All of the sights and smells around her seemed to flow through her senses and give her a warm feeling as she knew this was the place she would spend the next four years of her life.

Angelo smiled looking at the sky outside of the academy already daydreaming as he sat in the classroom they were supposed to meet in for new students. Since the teacher was already sleeping when he walked in he decided not to wake them up. He decided on a seat in the back by a window so he could stare up into the beautiful sky and dream about flying in the air above, instead of being in class waiting for his time to be over. Angelo was always a firm believer in his own saying 'first one in and the first one out' Angelo would show up to classes long before anyone else so he could get extra work in but once the bell rang he was out of their faster then a gunshot. Even though their was nothing he would rather be doing then flying he knew he had to wait for the other students to show up so we could all do the orientation or whatever it was before class could actually start. He needed to make sure he passed, he also needed to make sure that he made friends here so he could get help if he needed. Although how he could make friends was an odd concept to him since he never had the opportunity to have any before so he would be initially nervous except he knew he would make some smart mouth joke to break the ice and he could only hope it was tasteful. Angelo kept an eye in the sky while looking at the schools only entrance waiting for the next bus of students to arrive

Joshua could hear the that one girl praising it as a beautiful world as he moved into the pathway and walked fast, well as fast as he could being bundled down by a dozen pounds or so worth of clothes and crap that Joshua probably wouldn't even need. He looked to the left and right and only saw the creepy brown looking trees. "Well I hope that the school doesn't look like a deformed haunted house..." Joshua commented to himself as he moved along the pathway to himself. "Maybe it would have been better if I kept creepy girl Akame with me." Joshua wondered as he suddenly felt like there was a big scary white man talking him in a two piece suit from some cheap maker from Germany. "Man I need to get off the god damn internet..." Joshua said to himself suddenly as he realized he was unintentionally spouting memes at this point which was making him look bad. "Man I really am a loser. WELL I guess I'm a badass loser at the very least!" He said chuckling to himself.

"Man I need a friend." Joshua said suddenly as he came across a girl leaning against a tree after a couple minutes of walking. "Uh hey there are you o-" Joshua started as the girl turned to look at him only for Joshua to step on the girl's foot causing her to practically turn into a rabbit and hop around the area on one foot. "OW OW OW OW OW OW!" The green haired girl stated painfully as she jumped around on one foot. Joshua tried to apologize to her once she stopped hopping but the girl was immediately in his face, "WATCH WHERE YOU'RE WALKING YOU SKINNY LOSER!" Joshua's fears were coming true quicker than expected it seemed as he was pushed back up against a tree. "Hey hey there no need to fret!" Joshua said nervously backing up and trying to laugh it off, "It was an accident I'm sorry!" Joshua said as his back hit the tree and the woman glared at him intently. "Eh whatever you're not worth my time anyway but hey I'll see you around maybe." The girl said to him playfully after a long moment of them staring at each other, or rather he staring at him because he was averting his eyes. "I'll forgive you this time but if I run into you again you owe me one." Joshua wondered what just happened as the girl skipped away from him. "Did I just get played?" Joshua wondered absent mindedly as he pushed himself up against the tree trunk.

Like usual, Ellie flinches as Yua suddenly jumps to her feet, the smaller girl pressing as tight as she can against the back of her seat as she clenches her eyes tight, half expecting something to hit her... but seconds later gains control of herself and shakes the stiffness out of her body as she hesitantly takes Yua's hand, her own burning from embarassment and slightly sweaty as she's helped to her feet. Nodding her head to Yua's apologies she forces a shaky smile "I-it's okay... I... understand..." she says as she slings her backpack over her shoulder and follows the girl off the bus.

The moment she steps off the bus and her eyes lock on the woods, she seems to undergo a nearly complete personality change. She starts practically shaking from excitement as she moves quickly for the brush, her ass wiggling a bit as if she was trying to wag a tail. A forest! An actual honest-to-goodness forest! It had been so long since she had had a good run in the woods... She'd been practically surrounded by concrete every single day since she arrived in Japan and it hadn't helped her psyche one bit. But now she had a feeling of freedom as she runs her hands over the foliage just off to the side of the path. A slight scowl crosses her face as she hears the boy talk, calling this beautiful place "God-forsaken" to which she just glares at him and growls under her breath as he walks away. How could he call such a beautiful sight god forsaken? Such beauty was the gods' gift to the earth.

She quickly forgets about the boy as she just flops in front of a tree, forgetting the world for a moment as she just listens to the melody of the forest. The whispering of the wind through the trees almost drowning out the voices coming from the path. If Yua had followed her, she'd see a completely different person from the nervous wreck she'd been sitting beside on the bus...

Yua watched Ellie get off the bus, and smiled before shaking her head a little as the girl does a little butt wiggle as she moves to the forest. Yua slowly walked after her thinking that it would be nice to walk the rest of the way to school with someone. Her feet crunch against the hard dirt of the path and the sound of her suitcase rolling over the rocks where a little annoying for her to hear. It only took a few minutes for Ellie to go to a tree and give up the path to school for a moment to relax. An idea popped into the head of the succubus teen; then, with a smile, she moved off the path and put her things down before leaping up a tree. Her feet scrambled against the rough bark and her hands scuffed against the wood as she grasped for a branch and held on. It took her a second to pull herself up and into the tree, but after she was up she climbed up a few other branches. Near the top she moved quickly to jump to the tree Ellie was sitting under.

The Cat-girl seemed so happy and relaxed now that she was no longer inside of that cage of a bus. It was almost weird to Yua as she looked down at the girl. She moved down the tree branches nealy silently and swung her legs over a branch over head. She placed her hand on her skirt and another on the branch above her and then pushed back and locked her feet against her thighs. Her hair feel in her face and she brushed it aside to no avail. She smiled down at Ellie as she was only a few feet above the girl who was relaxing in the shade of the tree and cleared her throat.

“Ya know... I think we're supposed to meet up at school first instead of hanging around the forest Ellie.” Humor was in her voice and her eyes where playful. She moved her hanging arm to the side of the tree and held herself still as she observed this strange new world from the opposite perspective. She looked back to the path and then back down to the girl she was dangling over.

Felix moved aside with a little nudge from Yuri, he hadn't meant to be in her way, or did he? "I am sorry Mademoiselle, He bowed slightly as she got past him, a grin appearing on his face, They all love me, they just don't understand it yet. After grabbing his stuff from the seat which he started off in, he hopped off the bus, hearing a crack as his first suitcase landed. Dread filled Felix's face as he looked at the bottom to see that one of the wheels had snapped, and was now sideways, and just holding on. "This is why one should never by low quality trash made from china, they take no time or care in the merchandise, it may look pleasing for a moment, but it is nothing compared to the French equivalent." He looked at his other bag, which was holding up perfectly fine and looked good as new, minus a slight scratch. He hook his head, "Why could not the frnch make everything?" He sighed, ending his mini-rant and took a look around, it wasn't exactly as he was expecting...it was nice, but he had a preference for forests teeming with colour and life, this one seemed a bit on the dead side of things. Still wonderful, but not beautiful. The ocean, or red body of water around them, that was a different story, such a vibrant colour in such an unusual place, it was truly a work of art. "So this makes one for one, shall the school be a hit, or a miss?" He continued along the path, taking longer than normal as he had to drag his one suit case, adding to the required effort of moving it and leaving a slight trail of where he had been.

As silent as Yua believed she was, no city girl could ever be truly silent moving through the forest.. The shuffling of leaves... scraping of shoes on bark... the simple noises that movement makes... All crashing with the natural sounds of the forest as if the succubus was screaming to announce her position... Ellie just smiles as she inhales deeply, taking in the scent of the forest in... the smells of dirt and decomposed foliage filling her nose and making her feel right at home... she hadn't felt this calm in weeks... Having to be in that town had her on edge at all times... the constant sounds of human civilization sounding so wrong to her, but now she was surrounded by nature, even the knowledge of having to be surrounded by other beings constantly didn't bother her anymore... If all else fails, she could just leave...

The sound of a tree branch bending under the succubus's weight tears Ellie from her thoughts as she looks up into foliage above her, grinning a little as she sees the girl in the branch above her... The playful grin quickly turns into an uncomfortable one, a bright blush coming to her cheeks as she realizes that the girl directly above her was still wearing an extremely short skirt which didn't do much for concealment...

“Ya know... I think we're supposed to meet up at school first instead of hanging around the forest Ellie.” Yua says, receiving a giggle in response as Ellie just sprawls out.

"I think I'll be just fine riiiight here..." she practically purrs as she stretches, her head resting on a mossy patch at the base of the tree, "You can go ahead though... I don't have anything to take in, so I can just take my time... everything's crammed in my backpack..." she says as her hand gropes around blindly in her bag before pulling out a granola bar, which she tears open and starts nibbling at.

As she looks down to Ellie who was already starring up at her with an uncomfortable look on her face. Yua remembered that she is wearing a skirt and being right above the girl might have shown a little too much being as she was not as quiet as she thought she was. She blushed a little before the girl stretched out and said she didn't have much to move to the school. The girl shook her head once more, and then swung in the tree before releasing and doing a small flip in the air to land on her feet. She turned back to the girl lying on the ground with a smile.

[b[“It's not just moving our stuff in silly! We are supposed to meet up in the classroom so we can get our lockers and dorms. I think. ”[/b]Her face changed to a small thoughtful frown and her eyes looked between the “creepy” trees she had just traversed. She shrugged and watched a cloud pass by the odd colored sky.

“Either way, we're supposed to meet up at school and get our instructions before we can just hang around the forest. Besides Ellie, we have barely seen this beautiful place. Don't you want to see what it has to offer?” She looked back down to Ellie, that genuine smile on her face once more. She held out a hand to the girl once more.

“Come onnnnnn!” she dragged out the word as if she was too excited to stay in one place for too long. She was doing her best to try and make a friend this first day, as this girl had no idea that she could steal any boy she went after. Before this girl could already start to hate her because of what she was. She thought of her things only a tree away from her, and then looked over to the almost ridiculous amount of things she had brought with her to this school.

'Do I look selfish and vain to bring so much to a school? I mean, we are staying here for a year... so I have to bring a bunch of different clothes, and all my make-up. There was so much stuff I wanted to bring that I didn't!' her mind was off on a tangent at this point as it raced back and forth about how much she had brought to the school and then it came to a crashing halt as the wind blew a portion of her hair into her face. She looked at it almost in horror as she realized that her hair must look like a complete wreck now. She needed a mirror, and fast.

Angelo smiled seeing the bus finally come in, he knew that the students that would join him this semester were going to be with soon so they could start the year together. Angelo looked up at the sky again thinking back to his old life before he was enrolled in the academy. Angelo would be forced to wake up at the crack of dawn every morning with his parents while they went to listen to the requests of the people it was always Angelo that would be told to do it since he was old enough to do the most basic of things like call on rain and to protect a villagers crops from a draught. so tedious and boring that Angelo couldn't stand it as he did his best every night to run and do something he wanted to do for once but every time his parents would catch him before he got far, saying that he was the future of thunder birds. It took months before his parents decided to stop condoling him and they let Angelo live in a different country although Angelo knew that his parents still watched him regardless of how far he went but that was only Angelo living alone in an apartment in Spain, he learned a lot about the country but nothing that would help his future in being a thunderbird and after a year he asked his parents to transfer him to the academy again his parents refused but Angelo learned more then just culture, he learned philosophy and how the mind must be giving knowledge before being a leader of people. Angelo told his parents he needed to learn leadership and being a normal person so he could directly influence his people without them even realizing it. After a few days of convincing which was a record with Angelo, he finally convinced his parents to let him transfer under the condition that he cant fail a semester or be forced to come back. With that Angelo was determined not to fail and actually learn what its like to be normal and have friends, maybe even find a girlfriend if he was lucky but he wasn't going to deny himself anything here.

Yumi had no real care for what was going on around her. That one girl she helped pick up stuff for ran off and the other girl followed. The boorish (to Yumi at least) French kid had gotten off the bus shortly after she did. She didn't care for him much. From a few words she picked up after her started his monologue, he seemed to think too much of his home country. It wasn't exactly her problem though. She kicked up a very small amount of dust as she walked down the road a little. Further down she noticed the other boy. . . Joshua. "WATCH WHERE YOU'RE WALKING YOU SKINNY LOSER!" Even as far away as she was, that was something that could be made out. After a few more words the girl Joshua was with left. She didn't seem too angry.

Reaching to where Joshua was Yumi had to ask, "So, does talking 'smack' and being a 'son of a gun' also make you a 'skinny loser'?" That was about as much of a joke as she could attempt to make in the half monotone she spoke. The boy would take it as he would, Yumi knew. She was interested in how he'd respond. He seemed fairly 'human'. Her job was to attend the academy, learn about academics, and figure out how to act human after all. She also attempted to smile again. It didn't seem to achieve the desired results the previous time. She wasn't so sure why though. One simply raises parts of their mouth into the desire form, the Tsukumogami thought. Yumi has yet to realize what a hollow smile she possessed.

Ellie cracks an embarrassed smile as Yua seems to notice just how revealing the school uniforms were before dropping to the ground with a little acrobatic flip to which Ellie couldn't help but give a little round of applause.

“It's not just moving our stuff in silly! We are supposed to meet up in the classroom so we can get our lockers and dorms. I think." Yua said, which of course causes the applause to fade away before Ellie releases a long, whiny groan as she kicks her feet and smacks her fists on the floor in a mock tantrum.

“Either way, we're supposed to meet up at school and get our instructions before we can just hang around the forest. Besides Ellie, we have barely seen this beautiful place. Don't you want to see what it has to offer?

"I don't want toooooo!!!" she whines as she rolls over onto her hands and knees, pouting.

"Come onnnnnn!” Yua tried again, before Ellie finally stood up, pouting a little. As much as she wanted to stay in the forest and explore... maybe escape her clothes and walk around on all fours... Or get a birds eye view of the grounds instead... But.. so far, there was only one person in this place who was willing to go out o their way to try to be her friend... Even for this wild girl who'd had bare minimum human interaction over the last few years that meant a lot to her...

With an exasperated sigh Ellie finally stands, doing her best to not look too frustrated or upset, "Fiiiine... lets go..." she grumbles, before casting a glance over at the mound of stuff Yua brought with her and suddenly becoming extremely self conscious of her own meager luggage. Bending over to pick her bag up off the ground she bites her lip nervously, and opens it up as if pretending to look to make sure she had everything, already. What must everybody think with her bringing only a backpack? Her uniform was wrinkled and dirty and all she had was a backpack... They must all think she's disgusting... Or poor... Of course they'd be dead on with the latter, as she literally had to scavenge or hunt for food, but they didn't need to know that.

Gulping heavily, she stands up, hugging her backpack to her chest, and smiles at Yua, "Uhm... do you need help with your stuff?" she offers, forcing that fake smile again.

"You know you are REALLY bad at taking things are face value." Joshua said as he looked after the girl with a crooked frown on his face. "I bumped into her while walking and she got all uppity and jumpy about it like some sort of cartoon character." Joshua said casually as he spit on the ground and got himself straightened out properly. "I REALLY don't like girls like that they make me feel like gutter trash in a mean way." Joshua said deciding to laugh it off as he smiled. "Well the school's almost up head...through that weird ass graveyard..." Joshua said suddenly realizing what the hell he was looking at. "WELL THAT'S GOD DAMN REASSURING! Why not just leave a parade of dancing skeletons! I mean it's not like that isn't traumatizing to anyone not use to the monster culture or anything!" Joshua continued on as he started to walk but shivered as he did so.

===

Eventually Joshua and anyone coming behind him came upon the the gate of the academy. It was iron and well made at that and the stone was fine granite as if it was pain painstakingly picked out from the best rocks in a quarry. The school air was nice and fresh but still had that weird smell faintly coming from the sea...if that WAS a sea....nearby. "Well the place is big and looks pretty nice." Joshua admitted out openly as he whistled and walked towards the gate. It seemed most of the students were already in class and there were only a few students nearby. One girl with green hair and a rather small bust with thin legs compared to her bit more chubby and larger busted friend stood near the entrance to what Joshua presumed was another building and a group of kids with one wearing a black coat over his green blazer while the others didn't even wear those. "Well I have an idea of what's going to happen..." Joshua muttered to himself more than anything as he moved along the road and finally arrived at the gate where the group of guys were located at. "Hey pal what's up." said one with black hair that was slathered with a jell of some sort which smelled rancid considering his hair was slathered with it. He had a golden earring in his left ear. The big black guy to the left stood there silently throwing a ball up and down in his hand. The one behind the two of them stayed silent and was simply ignoring them completely. Their 'leader' or whom Joshua assumed was the leader looked down at him with a deep frown with. "Something up man?" Joshua asked him as he glared down at Joshua who didn't even flinch but stared him directly in the eye daring him to make a move. "There's a toll here big guy pay up or you can miss class." The leader guy said with a cold bluntness which made Joshua smile, "Oh I see so it's THAT kinda game is it? Oh and to answer your question guy my day was going pretty well up until now." Joshua said as the leader stalked closer to Joshua's face.

Yua smiled to Ellie as she rose from her seat, and checked her backpack to make sure she had everything. Only a moment later she looked at Yua's bags with a weird look in her eye, and with a hollow smile she asked if she needed any help with her things. Yua became self-conscious once more as she looked at the others who where not too far ahead of them and she realized that she was the only one to bring so much to the school. She looked to the ground, and shook her head.

“No, I selfishly brought all of this to school so I should be the one to carry it all to my dorm.” A frown was on her face, and her eyes darkened as she watched the grass under her feet sway back and forth. She brought up her face with a hollow smile of her own trying to hide her shame from the girl she wished she could call friend.

'It's happening again. She hates you for everything you brought. You're selfish and you're first attempt to become friends with this girl has failed because of what you are.' her mind shot at her, the words scrapping against her soul and causing her body to feel cold. She turned away quickly as she went to grab her things to bring to school. She strapped them on like she had before and grabbed the handle of the last one, making sure she had everything she turned to Ellie once more, trying to have a genuine smile on her face she motioned towards the path and the graveyard.

“Let's go Ellie!” She gave the girl a quick wave with her eyes-closed smile and then moved to the path and followed behind the others, being just about the last one at that moment it seemed to her. She picked up her speed a little wanting to make it to school so she could stop feeling embarrassed and full of shame. She took most of her time looking to the ground as she walked her way to the school as her mind berated her.

'You idiot. You shouldn't have shown off, you shouldn't have tried to sneak up on her. Hell you came off like a perv. And being such a selfish rich girl. She hates you now. Just like every girl hates you. The only “friends” you make are the puppets you create out of the men you use.'Her mind continued with the only thing really breaking her out of her own head being the commotion that was now going on at the front gate. Some guy was telling the American that a toll was needed for them to pass, or they could simply miss class instead. She didn't like where this was going, and a fight on the first day here wouldn't look good for the strange American boy that was in their little “merry” band of students. She stopped right next to the American and came as close as she felt was needed for her powers and looked to the “leader” of the group.

“Oh come on. You'll let us pass this time around, won't you?” she batted her eyes at the big guy, and worked her charm to try and avoid a bad situation from happening. She gave him a seductive smile and turned her body to the side with her free hand on her hip to give her powers maximum effectiveness.

The big guy looked over to Yua and he glared down at her initially, "Hey do you think I'm running a-uh...." the guy started before he stared into Yua's eyes much to Joshua's confusion as he looked at the big guy in a incredulous manner, "Uh sure of course you can go." The big guy said blushing and chuckling to himself when suddenly the guy with the overly jelled hair came over grabbed the guy by his hair and yanked it hard. "WHAT THE FUCK MAN!?" The leader said angrily at his 'friend' as the man got into his face, "The little bitch is a trickster monster! You big fucking dope do I even need a reason to yank you out of wonderland." The boy told the leader so close to his face that if he was any closer they'd be kissing. "You really know how to be a big dumb lug don't you." The boy said as he yanked himself away from their leader's grip and Joshua chuckled, "He is kind of big and stupid isn't he?" Joshua commented laughing much to the leader's anger, "You got some big ones kid. DO YOU KNOW WHAT I AM KID!? I SMASH LOW LEVEL DEMONS LIKE YOUR SORRY ASS INTO THE GROUND!" The man shouted at Joshua who grinned a toothy grin, "OH REALLY!?" Joshua shouted back as he dropped his stuff and spread his arms open wide, "Bring it big guy you have NO IDEA who you're messing with!" Joshua said confidently as if he wanted a fight. In reality he didn't he was just showing off hoping for a teacher to come along but in the reality of that reality he wouldn't mind kicking a big dumb troll like this guy around the school's yard.

Angelo snapped out of his daydream when he could hear the sounds of yelling and he looked down from the window seeing the other students being harassed by some other monsters. Much to Angelo's pleasure he got a chance to protect someone as he decided to run out of the halls and go downstairs quickly as he could before sliding next to them, literally sliding next to them and standing straight up "hey buddy, now why do you need to fight huh? so he tricked your boss. well that just means your boss is dumb enough to get mind fucked. so why don't you let it go before he tries it on you then you get into a fight and so on and so forth till your both busted and sent to detention on the first day. now I don't know what you do but you have to admit getting into detention on the first day would spoil your plans for the future. let others know that you are merciful and they will look to you for guidance and maybe have more for your gang. sounds more appealing then getting screwed over and still having that dumb ass for a leader no?" Angelo said trying to use his own smart mouth to trick the guy into letting his fellow student off the hook to avoid a needless fight. the best fights are won without blood Angelo remember, or something along those lines at least waiting for the bullies response next to the target student of his wrath
