Asmodeus sighed boredly and leaned his head on his fist as Phobetor said his final piece and bowed, leaving. With the room's only occupant now being the Lecher Prince, peace and quiet had returned. The room's only ambient sound now being the gentle crackling of the fireplace behind where Asmodeus sat. Emerald eyes staring up at the ceiling, he slowly smiled. Taking a breath, he then spoke to the sleeping Andrew.

"[I]Andy-boy...It's time to wake up...We're here...[/I]"

With a snort, Andrew's eyes slowly opened and he sat up having heard Asmodeus. Yawning, he rubbed at his eyes and wiped at his mouth. How long had he napped for? Blinking and waking up more fully, he looked around the bus and realized that they had now stopped and that he was alone. No, not alone. The rest of the students had already left, save for Evera who still sat at her seat for some reason. Clearing his throat and straightening his clothes, he got up from his seat and walked down the aisle of the bus. As he came to where Evera sat, he stopped suddenly. Cheeks slowly reddening, he could feel his embarrassment grow as he stood there. He figured he shouldn't be rude and at least try a bit harder to socialize with the others. It would be a very long and lonely school term if he didn't. Swallowing dryly, he turned to face Evera, being careful not to make eye contact. His eyes flickering up to her face and back down repeatedly as he attempted to speak to her.

"[B]Sh-...shall we g-go, miss? I-it seems as we're the only ones s-s-still on the bus,[/B]" he gave her an uneasy smile and nervous chuckle.
"[I]Oh-ho! We may have hope for you yet, Andy-boy! You actually gathered to courage to speak to another human being, and a woman at that![/I]" Andrew could hear Asmodeus clapping, applauding his efforts.
"[I]Th-thank y-you...?[/I]" Andrew was unsure if he was mocking him or sincere.
"[I]That hurt, Andy-boy. I was being sincere. Ohh, this one is rather attractive don't you think...?[/I]"

Before Asmodeus' hunger and curiosity could grow anymore, Andrew lowered his head and briskly walked off of the bus. Making sure to remember to open the storage compartments under the bus to grab his luggage. As he pulled his luggage behind him, he saw a newcomer looking down into some well with Taiyo sitting at its edge. His breath caught in his throat and his froze in his tracks. Gulping, his face continued to grow even more red as he looked at her. Exactly how red could one's face even get?

"[I]A-a-asmodai, wh-who is sh-she? Wh-when d-did she get on?[/I]"
"[I]Ah, I believe she was picked up along the side of the road as you slept. Don't ask me how she ended up there. Isn't she a beauty too, Andy-boy?[/I]" Asmodeus teased.
"[I]It's going to be a very interesting term...[/I]" Asmodeus chuckled.
Andrew could detect the intent behind his words, sending a shiver down his spine.

Looking down at the ground, he sighed whining slightly. Nervously, he adjusted his tie and decided to look around. Apparently, they had stopped at some Japanese Shrine. Wincing at the brightness of the sun from having just recently woken, Andrew reached into his inner coat pocket and pulled out a pair of sunglasses. Wearing them, he hoped it would help hide his intense anxiety as he walked up to the well. Keeping his distance from Taiyo and the new girl...

"[I]Her name is Roxanne. But you can call her 'Roxy'[/I]" Asmodeus informed him.
Andrew hated how Asmodeus could do that. He was never one to afford others their privacy.
Gathering his courage, he spoke up.

"[B]Wh-what d-did I m-miss? Wh-where d-did everyone e-else g-go?[/B]"
Looking around, he saw none of the other students from before. Specifically Mai, Ashil, and Phobetor.
