The events that unfolded last night were all a blur. Things just went down hill after Eris discovered him outside the dorms. The first disturbance was a girl who had spotted them together. Like an idiot, she raised the alarm by yelling out the window loud enough for the entire girls' dorm to take notice. This attracted the attention of many onlookers, lights turned on and girls opened their windows to see what was going on. Soon there after, a security guard no older Eden arrived on scene and shackled them both in place. It was a rather weak attempt at subduing the two. Eden would've broken the chains and been on top of the boy in less than a second, but with all the onlookers, that would have only gotten the pair into even more trouble. Accepting the fact that he was trapped in between a rock and a hard place, Eden decided to choose the hard place. The pair was escorted to the security captain's office, he was a beastly man standing over seven feet tall. Despite this, he had a very friendly demeanor. Feeling generous, he decided to let the two off with just a warning. It was only the first day and rumors had already started to spread about Eden, so much for staying under the radar. All the girls knew who he was, as he walked past them, they giggled and looked in his direction. They said things along the lines of "He's so cute", and "I wish he was my boyfriend." There was no point in stalking after Eris now. She, along witht he rest of the student body was aware of his presence. The best he could hope for now, was that the two would be in the same classes.

Arriving at the rundown apartment only a few blocks away from the school, Eden undressed and hopped into the shower. The feeling of the cold water pouring onto his skin gave him a jolt of energy. He hadn't slept in over 24 hours, but with school about to begin, sleep was something that he couldn't think about. Stepping out of the shower, he dried himself off with a towel that was straight out of the dryer. The warm fabric touching his cold, wet skin felt incredible. It had been so long since he was afforded the luxury of a morning shower. He had almost forgotten what it felt like. Dropping the now soaked towel onto the floor, he approached his closet and peered inside. He owned ten outfits, all were the exact same thing. A khaki-colored trench coat, wore over a brown pea coat, with a white dress shirt underneath. The pants were also brown, they matched the color of his pea coat. Ten outfits, all exactly the same. It was painfully obvious that he didnt have any sense in fashion. "Which one shall I choose today? It's such a difficult choice, so much variety. He let out a sarcastic remark, then chuckled at his own joke. How lame could one guy be? Looking at the time, Eden began to hurry. It was only 6:30, but he wanted to be there early so he could make sure Eris was alright. Figuring that it would be faster than going out the front door, Eden opened his window and jumped down to the street below. He was about 10 floors up, any normal man would have suffered severe injuries upon hitting, but not Eden. Pulling out his pistols mid-fall, Eden readied himself for impact. It was truly a sight to behold, like a cat that had just jumped from a tree, he landed perfectly on the ends of his feet. The bystanders that had been watching from below were amazed. They thought at first that someone had attempted to committed suicide, but after seeing the boy stick the landing and bow gracefully to the onlookers, they all went back to their business."Thank you, thank you. I'll be here all night, dont forgot to tip your waitress." Another terrible joke, it was too early in the morning for this. Eden was even starting to make himself cringe now.

The time was 6:45, there was 45 minutes before class started. Students with schedules in hand rushed in an attempt to find where their class was being held. Eden didn't worry though. Yesterday, while following Eris, he had discovered an unlabeled door that lead him into a lecture hall. Inside was a man no younger than 40, his name was Robert and he was the head of the Math, Science, English and History department. He was a certified genius, and their first teacher for the day.

There was nothing to do on this campus, kids just seemed to be standing around waiting for class to start. Some were playing games, but they didn't look like they were having much fun. If something interesting didn't happen soon, Eden was going to die of boredom. Right on queue a girl with light blue hair sat down on the bench next to him. She didn't seem like anything special at first, but almost immediately after inspecting her more closely, he noticed who she was. "You're that girl from yesterday aren't you? The one who yelled out the window and started a fight with that guard. What were you thinking? You know how much attention you drew to us? You're lucky we didn't get detention, or worse suspended." Eden was frustrated, he was now notorious amongst both the girls and boys. They all knew his face, wherever he went they couldn't help but look in his direction. It was just so bothersome. "You have to learn to be more subtle, in the real world, stuff like that will get you killed. Just be more careful from now one..... And, as for the question you asked, of course Eris is my girlfriend. We're star-crossed lovers after all. I came to this school just for her" With another terrible joke, Eden attempted to lighten the mood, but looking at her face he could tell she hadn't taken it as a joke. "God dammit. Eris is going to kill me now." He mumbled angrily, this time it was him who had caused trouble for himself.

Later morning/ first class



When she returned to class the note said a much different tone set under the intuition of her grandmother then one would expect. It simply said that she should be let out to use the bathroom, and that she was the nurses was why she was late. The letter more detailed how to deal with Isabella they couldn't not let her in class as she'd be left alone, but the summon had to be watched in social scenarios. It detailed how deadly her particular variety of summon can be if left un watched or worse upset. Though Lucille herslef seemed to quickly get there and finish whatever he had them doing on the board as if she was some kind of genius, leave, and finally come back and stare hoping to start a conversation with meeka but not sure how.

@Lvl Down@KoL

Eris left Lucille at the infirmary, and then went back to their without saying anything. She had promised to do no more than this, anyway and now it was the nurse's job to care for the well-being of the other girl.

After she arrived back at the dormitory, Eris found Meeka's note about the food, however, since a few minutes had already passed it was already cold. Eris picked her share and placed it at the microwave, her usual ally when Eris had to deal with food by herself, since she was terrible at cooking and ate only pre-made meals when her servants weren't around to care for her. Meeka's cooking wasn't bad at all, in fact it was way better than what Eris expected from such an airhead like Meeka, though Eris had to add an extra dash of salt and spices, because she always preferred things that had an stronger taste, and Meeka's cooking was as soft as her hair.

After finishing the meal, Eris placed her dish on the washer and readied her things to go to class, she had few minutes only to arrive there, but Eris didn't did something as ungracious as running down the corridors like some other students. She had to keep her composure if she were to rebuild the image that that lecherous fox broke yesterday night.

On her way she passed through some girls and it was al but impossible for Eris to hear them gossiping about her:

"Look! Isn't that..."

"Yeah, it's her. How could she be so bold? I wanted to meet mark too, but I was afraid to death of what would happen."

"But if my boyfriend were as cute as hers I think I wouldn't resist too."

"Totally..."

The girls only stopped when Eris gave them a sharp glare, before continuing on her way to the classroom. Eden was going to repay her for this, seven fold, in fact, Eris swore to herself.

---

When Eris arrived at the lecture hall-like classroom, she entered through the back door and quickly found a place to sit at one of the back rows, as away from the other students as she could. A few minutes later however a flood of students came into the room, with tired faces from running around the school trying to reach this place moments before the teacher arrived.

.@SlamJamcity

Meeka was somewhat surprised when the boy from last night came up to her. "You have to learn to be more subtle, in the real world, stuff like that will get you killed. Just be more careful from now one..... And, as for the question you asked, of course Eris is my girlfriend. We're star-crossed lovers after all. I came to this school just for her" Meeka's eyes went wide open after he had said that. "Really! I thought that was the case, but didn't know for sure. I can't wait to see Eris in class! If she is in my class. It will be so much fun to talk with her about boys when I get there." Meeka quickly got up, say goodbye to the nice looking boy.@SlamJamcity She then followed Run to her first class, as she was terrible with directions. Along the way Meeka was curious about the colors she had seen on said boy. It was strange, she had seen of course the black and white of his aura, but another color was mixed in there, she just couldn't tell what color it was. Rune assured Meeka, that over time, the colors would become more prevalent and that she will soon start seeing many colors in every single person, but for now, she headed to class.

Once Meeka made it to the classroom, she looked for Eris. She found her sitting on the back row. She smiled as she walked down the aisle to a seat next to her. Apparently, most of the girls were either scared of her or wanted to gossip about her from a distance. Either way, with her crazy smile that could make anyone happy, she bluntly said, "So I met that boy you were talking to last night. And you know what? He said that he was your boyfriend! Isn't that so cute. I wish I had a boyfriend. I'm jealous of you Eris." She took a seat right next to Eris and happily waited for class to start.

Class was about to begin, Eden walked into the lecture hall and immediately spotted Eris sitting in one of the middle rows along with the light blue haired girl that he talked to right before class. "Could things possibly get any worse?" He grumbled. Not wanting to get anywhere near Eris at the moment, Eden took a seat towards the top right corner of the lecture hall. Time passed and the seats filled up. Class was supposed to have started minutes ago, but the teacher still hadn't arrived. Most of the students took advantage of this and used the time to talk amongst themselves.

"Did you hear about what happened outside the girls' dorm?"

"Isn't that the girl who meant with that boy after dark?

"Oh my god, look up top! Isn't that the boy she was meeting? Why aren't they sitting together? You think they had a fight?"

"He's pretty cute."

The sound of all the different students gossiping and talking to each other mixed into one big mess voices. It would be impossible to hear yourself think even if you tried.

The room suddenly grew quiet as an older man rushed into the room and stood in front of the class. He was out of breath, and it looked like he hadn't slept in a few days. He stood there for a few minutes before he finally addressed the class. "Hello everyone, my name is Mr. Hayes. I will be your English,Math,Science, and History teacher from now on." The man then turned around and grabbed a text-book off one of the large shelves behind him. Flicking his finger through the book, he stopped on a random page, then closed the book. Clapping his hands together, he turned back towards the class and smiled. "Lucky for all of you, it seems that we wont be doing anything too difficult on the first day. We will instead be going over Quantum physics." The entire class groaned painfully as he began to discuss the basics of quantum physics. Over the half the class seemed completely lost, they had no idea what he was talking about. Eden wasn't a genius either, but he was knowledgeable enough to keep up and understand what was being discussed.

After the lecture was finished everyone was dismissed early, but just as they started to file out of the room, Mr. Robert called out loud enough so that everyone could hear. "I almost forgot! For homework you have to write a 10 page research paper on the workings of quantum physics. You have one week to turn it in." That was the straw that broke the camels back, multiple students started complaining loudly, and one girl even started to cry. No one expected the class would be so demanding.

Once Meeka made it to the classroom, she looked for Eris. She found her sitting on the back row. She smiled as she walked down the aisle to a seat next to her. Apparently, most of the girls were either scared of her or wanted to gossip about her from a distance. Either way, with her crazy smile that could make anyone happy, she bluntly said, "So I met that boy you were talking to last night. And you know what? He said that he was your boyfriend! Isn't that so cute. I wish I had a boyfriend. I'm jealous of you Eris." She took a seat right next to Eris and happily waited for class to start.

Eris' eyes widened in disbelief after hearing those words, at first she thought about exploding in a nervous fit, but after looking at Meeka's genuinely oblivious face, Eris couldn't get herself to become furious with the girl, after all, the real culprit was yet to show his face at the classroom. "Oh, he said that then, didn't he?" Eris had an evil grin in her face as she asked Meeka. The other girl just nodded and gave her a "Yup!" as an answer. Eris' face then became clouded in darkness as she said something very dangerous, in a in playful sound voice, "I don't know if you would like it, Meeka. Sure, a boyfriend can be useful, but the feeling of becoming a widow isn't so pleasant."

Before Meeka had the time to answer, the teacher came into the classroom and started talking about some ridiculously high level topics for a class of highschoolers, before dismissing them before the time ended and giving the an even more ridiculous assignment as homework. Seriously, how could a man like this even be allowed to teach them? Not that it minded to Eris anyway, since, as soon as she had a free time she would go to the Library and do this obnoxious homework in one go if possible.

However, the focus of Eri's attention right now was other. She waited until Eden went to the bathroom, since even he would have to go there one day, anyway, she didn't even cared about the other students anymore, there were enough rumors about her already one more about she waiting for her 'boyfriend' at the boys' toilet door would kill her.

When Eden finally got out, he saw Eris and tried to run, but she had the element of surprise at her advantage, she grabbed him by the collar and dragged him to corner, pressing him against the, so that he couldn't slip away. "How are you going to repay me, huh? You ruined my image in a way that I simply can't reconstruct. If you really want to play being my boyfriend this much..." Eris had a devious grin in her face as she said, "You better be ready to face the consequences." Then, Eris moved some strands of her hair who had fallen over her face away in a slightly suggestive gesture and whispered in Eden's ear, so that only he could hear, "Tell anything about this to my father and you're a dead fox, you know it, don't you?" To seal the deal, Eris gave a light peck at Eden's cheek, before going away to her next class. The look in her eyes practically saying, "You're my plaything now," to Eden.

The following classroom was crammed with all sorts of magical artifacts and strange contraptions that Eris couldn't help but wonder for why they were used. She'd arrived quite early and this time she decided to pick a place in the front row as well as saving one space for at each of her sides for both Meeka and Lucille (if she was feeling well enough to attend the class, that is).

A few minutes later, when Meeka finally arrived and placed her things besides Eris, before sitting, Eris turned to her with an uncharacteristic smile in her lips and said, "I'm sorry about my joke earlier, Meeka. The truth is that having a boyfriend is wonderful in so many ways that I can't barely explain it with words."

Meeka didn't mind that Professor Hayes had assigned so much homework. 10 pages was easy for her to write, as for the subject he went over in class, it was a great review for her. Once the class had eneded, Meeka left the room and went to the next class. Meeka finally arrived to the next class, and after finding Eris, Meeka placed her things besides her and before sitting, Eris turned to her with an uncharacteristic smile in her lips and said, "I'm sorry about my joke earlier, Meeka. The truth is that having a boyfriend is wonderful in so many ways that I can't barely explain it with words."

Meeka thought it would be cool if she had a boyfriend. She never had one before, and from what she saw around her, was that relationships made people so happy and that they were perfect. Always happy and not a single problem in them. She gleefully thought about what she would do if some guy came up to her and asked her on a date. She didn't know, but her thoughts abruptly ended when a guy in a black and purple coat fell from the ceiling onto the floor with a thud. Most of the girls screamed in the classroom, some guys could be heard saying cool, and what is that. Meeka was even more surprised when that guy suddenly stood up, head leaning over his right shoulder, his eyes closed with a crazy look on his face. Meeka didn't feel comfortable at all. She actually wished she had sat in the back of the classroom.
"Welcome class!" The crazy looking figure said, while his eyes were closed. He suddenly brought his head to back in line with his body. Many people gasped when they saw his face. His red eyes boring into your soul, and half his face covered with a silver-looking mask. Strange things were written on his hands and feet. His voice was was like a gentle breeze, but his demeanor left you with the impression that he would swallow your soul. The guy bowed to the students then said, ""My name is Professor Marx. I will be your planar instructor." As he finished his introduction, a large hole opened up and black tentacles stretched out and grabbed Marx and pulled him through. The hole dissapeared and once again screams could be heard and some girls were crying this time.

One girl in the back of the room fainted when she heard Marx's voice from behind her. Everyone turned around and saw Marx standing there in the back of the room, like nothing happened. He tripped on his robe as he made his way back to the front nearly collapsing on top of a guy. Once he was at the front, he clapped his hands, and it was pitch black. His voice could be heard in the darkness, it sounded eerie and raspy all at the same time."Have you ever wondered what the void is like when you visit the plane of darkness?" His voice seemed to come from every direction. A boy started screaming saying something grabbed him and more girls started to scream. Meeka felt very nervous, and was actually really scared. "Do you feel depressed? Do you feel that there is no hope for survival?" Another guy cried out in pain, saying that he was bleeding. "Wh...what's going on here?"Meeka's voice was incredibly shaky. Just then, the lights came back on, and the teacher stood before them smiling, like nothing had happened at all. "I think that is enough introduction for the day class. I hope your experience with the plane of darkness was exhilarating and joyful. You have no homework unless you want it. Now leave before the next class comes in. Our education has only just begun." He laughed maniacally and walked into his office located behind him.

Meeka was visibly shaking when she left the horrid room, she could barely stand. What had just happened in there?

When class ended Eden made a mad dash for the door. He had to try his best to avoid coming into contact with Eris. With all the rumors that were now floating around about the two, there was no way she'd let him get off scot-free. Lurking the halls, he tried his best to blend with the crowd. Eris was too sharp though, she picked him out of the crowd as he passed by the men's restroom and dragged him off into the corner. There was no where for him to run. Eden was trapped in between her and the wall. Resisting would be futile. She was a ferocious women, cold and unforgiving. Her eyes burned deep with anger, it seemed like she intended to kill him, but instead she spoke.

"How are you going to repay me, huh? You ruined my image in a way that I simply can't reconstruct. If you really want to play being my boyfriend this much..."

"You better be ready to face the consequences."

The whole time she spoke, she wore a wicked grin across her face. It was like she was deriving pleasure from seeing him backed into a corner with nowhere to run. She playfully toyed with her hair then leaned closely so only that Eden could hear. The look on her face had changed, she no longer smiled wickedly, her smile was more seductive in a way. The words that came out of her mouth did not surprise Eden. Instead of confessing her love, she threatened to take his life if he told her father. Giving a quick peck on the cheek she turned away and happily ran off. Eden was no longer a free man. Eris had him completely wrapped around her finger. As far as she was concerned, he was now no more than a plaything to her.

Eden didn't even bother attending second period. He was too worried about trying to find a way out of the mess he had made for himself. There were many options, but all of them ended with him facing untimely demise. He wanted to run, but he still had a job to do. He was hired to protect Eris Reinhardt, the heiress to a band of mercenaries. If that duty required him to pretend to be her boyfriend, then so be it. From this day forth Eden Wright would pretend to love Eris. There wasn't a single part of him that actually did, he hated her at this point. But, if he intended to keep his life, it's what he'd have to do.

By the time second period was over, things had already set in stone. Walking aimlessly around the campus Eden looked for something to occupy his time. Third period wouldn't start for another 45 minutes, this time was given to the students as a free period where they could eat lunch and talk to their friends. The problem was Eden had nothing to eat, he hadn't eaten anything in the past two days, and as for friend. He had none. This period was where social outcasts like him wallowed in their misery. He was about to just leave school for the day, but as he neared the gates, a group of girls ran up and stopped him. "Ummm.... Excuse me. You're Eden, right? Would you like to maybe have lunch with us?" Eden turned towards the group of girls and looked at the one who was standing in the center. She was a small thing, fragile with long black hair. The longer he stared, the smaller she seemed to grow. All the girls giggled as she shrunk away in fear, It was obvious this was the first time a boy had paid her any mind. "I'm sorry, I really nee-" Eden had planned to brush off their invitation, but mid-sentence he was cut off by the sound of his stomach growling. All the girls giggled as the sound resonated from his stomach. Taking it as a yes, one of the girls grabbed him by the hand and dragged him off into the grass where they were holding a picnic. Several boxed lunches sat in front of him. They were each made by a different girl, all of them just for him. It seemed wherever he went, women couldn't resist turning him into their plaything. "Are you going to try some or just stare at it?" One of the girls said jokingly. One of them then decided to just take a spoon full and shove it into his mouth. This started a frenzy, each of the girls were taking turns stuffing food into his mouth. By the end of it Eden felt like he was going to explode. I never knew I was so popular amongst the ladies.
