[h1]-THE KILLING CLUB-[/h1]

[i]There were no windows at all, which was odd in itself since the academy's sprawling campus was such a beautiful sight.  Outside the cold, barren walls, if one were to peel them back, they would discover a lovely scene of cherry blossom petals fluttering in the breeze like tiny pink butterflies amidst a decadent bouquet of such colorful and fragrant flowers dotting the sprawling, verdant grass meadows, all beneath a clear blue sky.  While it was a cool seventy five degrees outside on this beautiful spring afternoon, the halls were as cold as a morgue…and just as dead, save for the two men who stood at the door locked with a seven figure security code, both dressed in all black suits with red ties, wielding in their gloved hands two Heckler & Koch 9mm submachine guns. At the other end of the corridor, there stood two elevator doors that soon opened with a light hiss of air, followed by the sound of footsteps across the plush red carpet.

The man who had just left the elevator, dressed in a similar black suit but with a small pin of the academy's seal buttoned on his coat, walked briskly with an authoritative fervor.  He was a tall man, slightly muscular, feathery gray hair atop his head that seemed to sway with each step he took.  His eyes, they were cold and black, obsidian like the deepest pit of Hell, but that was not the most striking feature of him.  He wore a mask, similar to that of a ninja, obscuring the bottom half of his face....riddled with scars.

He gave a curt nod to the guards, which they replied back with, one of them turning towards the keypad on the door and pressing in the cryptic set of numbers. Within seconds, there was a beep, a click, and then the swish of the door sliding open, revealing to a slightly cozier room than the frigid corridor.

A red haired woman around her mid to late thirties sat at a lavish pinewood desk, leaning back in her comfy office chair and giving a stifled yawn with a prolonged stretch.  Her eyes, tempting shades of emerald, soon trailed to the tall man standing before her, stoic as a statue.  [color=ed1c24]"My lady...they have arrived."[/color][/i]  He spoke with a voice hoarse and raspy.

The woman smiled, or rather, she smirked, a decadent, pleasing grin crossing her ruby red lips.

[color=ec008c][i]~"Mhmm... Then let our little game begin."~[/i][/color][/center]

[h2][u]Welcome to Seiko Academy[/u][/h2]

Built around the early to late 1950s, this institution has been educating young men and women for centuries, molding them into model citizens and preparing them for a bright future upon graduation.  Perfectly situated just a train ride away from the bustling city of Tokyo, Seiko Academy has the distinction of being a place where you can experience the beautiful countryside while also living in a comfortable, urban environment.

But...all is not as it seems at this illustrious school, for there are students who stand out among the common rabble, youths, who for years, have been trained in the deadly arts.  They are the students of the notorious Class Noir.  They...are assassins, hired guns for the notorious criminal organization Requiem.  For years, Requiem has utilized these deadly youths to take over the criminal underworld, and now, with a new year dawning, new contracts are in order, new blood to be spilled...[/center]


Welcome to the Killing Club.  Before we begin, you know the drill.

[u]RULES[/u]
[b]No Fighting in the War Room-[/b] No fighting in the OOC, no flame wars, no bitching, etc. Don't be a troll or I'll kick you out from under your bridge....and the RP as well. Civil arguments and discussions are welcomed, but if it gets out of hand, I will break it up.

[b]Kinda Cramped in Here-[/b] We will only be accepting 8 people.  Sorry, but that's the rules, friendo.

[b]Viewer Discretion is Advised-[/b]  Since this is an assassin RP, expect tons of mature content, however keep the adult stuff to at least a PG-13 level. Gore, drug usage and cussing like a sailor is cool with me, but as for sex, take it to the PMs if it gets past the necking phase. Also be considerately realistic. You're not going to rip out some dude's entrails with your bare hands....though that would be cool. <.<

[b]AWOL-[/b] Actually, if you have to be gone for a long amount of time, like more than a day or two, please let me know in advance. I understand life can be hectic for some and throw alot of curveballs time to time, and some of us have to deal with school, work, avoiding the landlord, washing the gimp, etc, so I will gladly stall the rp. However, if you do not tell me, I will have to instate the three strike law, meaning if you don't respond in three days, your character will be insta-killed....[b]and yes I'm a huge hyprocrite of this, so feel free to slap me!  Actually slap me now cause I did it with this RP[/b]

[b]Intelligence-[/b]  If you have any questions about the RP or you want to suggest something, feel free to ask either here or in the PMs. I'll do my best to answer it, and if I think your idea is a perfect addition the RP, you'll get the green light.

-And the most important rule of all.......[s]Wear a condom[/s]....eh I mean....HAVE FUN!!!!!.....but seriously use some protection >.>;

Anywho, with the rules out of the way, let's get to it!

[hider=The School]
[img]http://i212.photobucket.com/albums/cc189/LonelyRose12/school8qcorwolfcrychan.jpg[/img]

This is the Main Building where students will go to attend classes or engage in certain club activities. Outside the entrance are student planted flower beds. During lunch hours, several students enjoy socializing out in the open air. Benches and fountains line the quad, perfect for a multitude of activities. Students are to take note that the faculty building is easily accessible from the Main Building and any questions for the staff should be taken there. The ground floor is where students will find their shoe lockers and the school stores. Anything a student needs, be it supplies or a quick snack can be found at the store. The ground floor is also where students will find a cafeteria for the purchasing of meals. While students can eat inside the cafeteria, enjoying a meal with friends in the classroom or out on the quad is highly encouraged. Classrooms can be found on floors two through four with each floor housing a year, first years call the second floor their home, and so on.

The School Grounds are mostly used for extra-curricular activities. Located behind the Main Building and stretching to the woods just outside of school property, the grounds are gateway to the rest of the school. From the grounds students can head to the dorms, the the sports fields, and find club buildings for clubs that can't operate within the confines of the main hall. The large building serves as both an auditorium (for school plays or performances from the music clubs and for a large variety of events during cultural festival period) and an indoor gymnasium. The gymnasium contains an indoor pool for aquatic sports and is off limits unless for sports purposes. Students are allowed free use of the gym unless a club has it reserved or there is a sporting event going on. The auditorium is free for all until the drama club begins rehearsals for their seasonal plays. Other club buildings found on the grounds include the music room (to the left of the auditorium), the library and its literature club (to the right of the auditorium) and sports clubs (located near the sports fields,)

The Dorms are where the students of Seiko Academy will live. Located a short walk away from the grounds, the dorms provide a perfect view of the forest beyond school grounds as well as the pond. (Please note that students are not allowed to swim in the pond.) Dorm rooms are shared by two students. Students are allowed to swap rooms for one week after a quarter has started but all room changes must be approved by the dormitory staff. Rooms can be decorated with posters and photos but nothing is to be rearranged. The dorms have been designed with comfortable living space in mind. Beds are spaced apart so as to allow free movement, and each student has shelf space for studies or for housing learning materials. Food and drink is not permitted in the dorms. Students are allowed one (1) television per room but it must be turned off at lights out and the volume must be so that the room next door does not hear. Cell phones are allowed.

The Sports Field contains a track and a field for bat and ball games. There is a storage shed nearby for net games such as tennis, football (soccer), and others. Use of the sports field is free for students unless there is a sporting event or a club has the field reserved. The field closes at lights out.[/hider]


[hider=And here's all the secret stuff for Class Noir]
[img]http://media.animevice.com/uploads/0/6872/248798-tokyo_underground_temple01_super.jpg[/img]

Hell's Cistern is the birthplace of Class Noir, Requiem's elite assassin unit.  Located beneath the school, it is here in this dark and damp environment students handpicked by the Headmistress herself are trained to become killers.  The wet concrete is stained with years of determination, years of bloodshed.  The Cistern contains a well stocker armory, loaded with even more firepower than the JGSDF.  There is also a shooting range, a dojo for melee and unarmed combat training, and...a room where students who fail their training or an assassination contract are "taken care" of.

The Headmistress's office is located at the very top floor of the school's main building.  A reclusive woman, the Headmistress never leaves her office except on rare occasions.  Class Noir students are the only ones permitted to enter her office, of course with her consent first.  Any student caught snooping in her office will be immediately "expelled."[/hider]


Yeah yeah, sorry for all that stuff, but I wanna make sure you guys are informed before we begin.  So with that, enough faffing about.

[color=ec008c]~"Class is in session, darlings."~[/color]

[h3][color=ec008c]Hibana[/color][/h3][/center]

[b]Name[/b]
Natsume Hibana

[b]Age[/b]
34

[b]Gender[/b]
Female

[b]Personality[/b]
As beautiful as she is ruthless, Hibana is a woman not to be trifled with, charming, seductive, but also conniving, vicious, and very deceitful.  She could lull you into a false sense of security.  Then, when you think everything is okay, when you are at your most vulnerable, that is when she springs her trap on you.  She's an intelligent woman who likes to catch her enemies off guard and does what she can to take advantage and gain the upper hand in any situation.  She prides herself greatly as well being head of both one of the most illustrious schools in Japan and....one of the most notorious criminal organizations on the face of the earth.

Her attitude at first is very calm, serene and professional, but if crossed, she can be very cold, violent, and downright brutal in how she deals with her adversaries.  Despite her given prowess with most weapons, Hibana is not above using her womanly charms to get what she wants either, believing herself to be irresistible to both men and women.

[b]Bio[/b]

Of all the most prominent Yakuza Clans in Japan, none were more so than the Natsume Clan.  Tracing their bloody lineage back to the Sengoku Jidai, the Natsume Clan began as a dynasty of Feudal Lords and noble samurai who ruled over nearly all of Feudal Japan.  Hibana's namesake was her ancestor, a legendary Onna Bugeisha who singlehandedly conquered a lord's castle in Osaka.  The name was given to her by her father, Boss Godoh Natsume.  For years he raised his daughter to be an assassin, teaching her of the deadly arts of the legendary Shinobi or Shadow Warriors, along with a few military tactics he learned while he served.  The young girl grew to be a notorious hitwoman in the criminal underworld, making her first kill at age eleven, another Yakuza boss named Shiga Kohogari, a pedophile who raped and murdered Hibana's seven year old sister.  Hibana lured the sick bastard in, disguising herself as an innocent schoolgirl, then she cut his throat and pulled his tongue out through the wound.

From that day forward, Hibana continued her gruelling tutelage under her father.  She had become the deadliest assassin ever known by age twenty, wanted by every law enforcement agency in the world, and by age twenty-five, after her father's mysterious death, she became head of the Natsume Clan, eventually uniting all Yakuza in Japan under the banner of Requiem, along with families of the Sicilian Mafia, the Russian and Irish mobs, Latin American drug cartels, and African-American street gangs.  With the aid of her army of highly trained assassins, produced in secret by her grandfather's school, Seiko Academy, she became queen of the criminal underworld.  Those who opposed her, she made an example of, a gruesome, bloody example.

None would ever suspect the Headmistress of Seiko Academy was by far the most powerful woman in the world.

[b]Hobbies[/b]
Listening to music, reading, swimming, sunbathing, horseback riding, archery, fencing, playing violin, attending plays and operas, playing chess, flower arranging, tending her bonsai tree, enjoying a glass of wine or champagne now and again.
