[b]Haruka Sakamoto[/b]

[i]Did I fall into an anime at some point over the last few days?[/i]

It was an entirely fair thing to wonder as Haruka passed the third girl with a slice of toast in her mouth in his dash to get to Hybrid Academy before it got [b]too[/b] late. It seemed that oversleep was more of a problem than the teenager figured, either that or there were a few too many people who played the part in hopes of getting a spot in their very own real life romcom.

As for Haruka...well it turns out that his alarm had been set for PM rather than AM. It was a miracle he had woken up at anything like the correct time to be honest. Now he was relying on all those long hours on the obstacle course to get him to school before it got too late.

Right now that meant sitting on top of a truck heading roughly towards his destination.

As it turned out the truck traveled to within a couple blocks of the school before turning off in another direction. Haruka dropped down as it started to turn, ignoring the odd looks nearby pedestrians were shooting him and took off sprinting the rest of the way to the school. 

Apparently he was not the only person to be late today. Several other students were making their way through the gate ahead of him. It probably would not help him with the teachers but the fact made the Japanese-American feel better all the same. Making his way through the gates Haruka immediately started making his way towards the section of the school that was currently swimming in mana.

[i]I guess that is where the magicians are being tested.[/i]
