"Brightendale... Lily, your name is as beautiful as yourself, I must say."

As Bael spoke, he moved himself to sit at the same bench as her, keeping certain respectful distance of about two fingers between the two. His blue eyes never dared to move away from her, as if in the whole garden, there was nothing more interesting than the girl. Or rather, her eyes, because right now, the demon was staring deeply into the angel's eyes. How curious.

He smiled, a smile so full of intention, just like the look in his eyes, proving every moment that his sudden proximation had reasons and that he wasn't being friendly just to be friends. "I'm sorry, but am I being rude or bothering you? You seem nervous, my dear, if it's because of me, I'd be more than glad to leave." His voice was more of a whisper now, and he had moved slighty closer to her when he started to speak, a hand reaching to hold her hand once again; an act of almost suspectable sweetness.
"I'd never want to stress a lady as beautiful as yourself, that'd be truly shameful of me."

Matt - Cafeteria
"White hair? White hair?" Matt asked, looking as if that was the dumbest thing in the world. "You get up and yell at me because you have white hair. For one, hair is way easier to clean than a shirt, and even cleaning the stains off a shirt is possible. For two, I don't know about you, but I've heard rumors about some strange invention called... Hold on let me think of it... Shampoo?" Matt shook his head. This girl was ridiculous. He shook his head again, then turned around and started walking towards the table that he was planning on sitting at in the first place.

Dani - Cafeteria
Dani started sliding down the bench until he was almost underneath the table itself. Not only had Allan found the room he was in, Allan actually sat at a nearby table! And to make matters worse, some random people chose this very table to pick a fight near. Over the smallest thing! Dani wished he could just disappear. Strangely enough, Dani started becoming a little bit translucent. And then a little bit more so. And a bit more.

Oona:

Oona was half-tempted to stop him but let out a frustrated sigh and turned and left, deciding he wasn't worth it.
she got to the closest bathroom and tried her best to get rid of most of the fruit and juice now covering her head and discovered that the fruit had in fact left various colored stains in her hair, but despite what she had said earlier it wouldn't be that hard to get rid of.

she turned and leaned against the wall, musing to herself why on earth she had been so mean to the man "what on earth made me act like that?" she muttered "i was really mean, maybe i should go apologize" but for some reason the thought reminded her of a defeat and the self-conscious part of her brain shot it down "i can apologize later, i need a shower, badly" so she pushed herself off the wall and decided to go figure out where her room is.

Andromeda:

Andromeda approached the school gates with apprehension "am i late?" she muttered. the gates opened and she was allowed into the school. for a second she paniced, there were so many people around!
she took a deep breath and kept her head down as she walked slowly forward, she smelt something really good and followed it until she found herself in an even more packed room and brought her hands to her chest as she walked. she watched the other people silently as they went about their business, she saw a girl who's head was covered in fruit stalk out of the room, "i wonder what that was about" she saw people going in a line through what looked like some kind of buffet and after a little while she joined the line and just got some simple things, a few fruit and some ice cream.

when she had gotten out of line she looked around, she had no idea where to go, there were people everywhere and, while she wanted friends she was scared to go near them, for fear of turning them to stone, she knew this was foolish but she still felt it, so she decided she wouldn't eat here and she headed with her tray out of the room to a nearby location that appeared to be a garden. she set the tray beside her on the bench and she looked around and realized there were other people here, not many though, there appeared to be a girl with a rather large trumpet talking to a boy in armor a little ways away. she didn't approach them, she had always enjoyed seeing people interact, since she would never really be capable of that.

Jeanne R. Cortez

Bright red hair, captains' clothes, and one heck of an accent- those three traits easily distinguished Jeanne R. Cortez from the others.

The fine, old man who came up to address what people liked to call an "opening ceremony" delivered a speech that, somehow, made her feel motivated. Jeanne R. Cortez, the pirate captain of the Screaming Pearl, had come to Athalia Academy for many reasons. After many years of sticking with her undead "family," she found the invitation that one of her crewmates found lying on the ship. This invitation was a chance for her to experience a life more related to that of a human's. She never really lived a proper life as a human, so this particular academy seemed like a good quick fix to that. Cortez also wanted to spread the name of the Screaming Pearl, in which she took pride in as its captain. She herself did not know whether she would be able to successfully gain respect or rivals from it, but she at least wanted others to know that not all undead were bad people.

After all, despite being fully human, her crew mates treated her as if she were one of them. And her father gave her many opportunities in learning valuable lessons. She was living proof of their kindness, though not a single one of them knew why they were even un-alive in the first place.

With that said, she was surprised when she entered the cafeteria.

Blimey! I'm still baffled to see this many landlubbers... Landlubbers like me! And with the same kind of flesh! Well, most of them, that is, aye!

Cortez looked around, wondering what she should do in the cafeteria. Before she came here, she learnt all kinds of vocabulary and knowledge to be able to fit in with society, but she was still a little rough around the edges. Her eyes fell upon a particular food.

It was inevitable that she brought pancakes out of the lunch line.

"No things shall avast me from delighting myself with these 'pancake' things!" Cortez exclaimed, happily staring at her food like a child as she stood still.

"Hm, hm! Now..."

...

"...Uh..."

Cortez simply stood, blinking out of slight embarrassment.

Sink me! She thought, feeling a little nervous in the midst of people around her. I have no idea on where to bilge my anchor at!

She looked around like a lost cat for a few seconds. Her eyes then sparkled magnificently as she became exuberant again.

"I know!" She said to herself. "I can always just...!"

A few seconds later, she was sitting alone at a table.

"Just... sit alone...? Curses..."

The pirate captain slightly pushed her food away from her to plant her face on the table. A pirate captain who found many undiscovered treasures... was sitting alone with foods she never tasted before. She slowly pulled her head up, staring at a group of people talking with each other.

There was a particular man she spotted. He was the same person the vice principal pointed at during the opening ceremony. Would people eventually crowd around her like they did to him? He looked like a happy magnet to her, persistently carrying a friendly mood. Even now, he seemed cheery, though he had already finish his food.

Cortez felt blood enter her cheeks a little too quickly after staring at him for a substantial amount of time. She dug her face back onto the table before sitting back up. With a determined, yet somewhat dejected mood, the pirate captain simply mumbled to herself,

"W-Well, not everything goes according to plan immediately, right?" She asked herself, laughing a little before staring at the pancakes in front of her. "I just need a little more time, aye!"

With that in mind, Cortez proceeded to quietly eat her food, silently praising the chef for making some sort of godsend miracle she never encountered before.

The two seemed like they were going to fight, Zivon didn’t want to see any of this. He looked away and stared at the guy with purplish black hair who surprised him a bit. He looked like he was in big trouble; he was sliding the bench until he was almost underneath the table, probably hiding from something or someone. Zivon titled his head ‘why would he do that?’ He was so confused then the guy was turning somewhat translucent... Zivon looked away for a second and looked back if what he saw was real, that guy…turning translucent. 'Is he like a ghost or something?' He didn’t really know what to say, gathering up some courage that he had gained and lost before, he asked.

“u-h um uh, Ex-cuse me bu-bu-t…Wh-o are you and wh-y are you hi-ding?”

Zivon stutterd out “I-I I uum I I ca- can, we-ll uh, A-ge Ma-niplu-" he couldn't finish what he was saying as Drow heard something falling. Oona was all covered in food that a boy trew over her. She didn't want that someone hurted her new friend but it seemed that Oona could handel herself. "What Was That For?!" she yelled out, Most of the cafetaria started to look at them but they soon continued their food only a few eyes remained on them. Drow turned around again to talk to Zivon again but he was already talking to someone else. Oona left the cafetaria with multiple colors in her hair. Drow tried to follow her but when she got to the doors she was nowhere to be found. She walked back into the cafetaria since it was no point trying to find her in this big school. Her eyes looked at all the students in the cafetaria and she saw her Cousin sitting with some other people, she gestured to him that he needed to come for a second but she couldn't see if he saw it. Wait doesn't that other boy have white hair to I thought cousin was pretty special with his white hair apparently not so special at all. Her stomach rummaged and she walked to the counter to get some ice cream. No wonder that she wanted ice cream Zivon ate lots of it. She walked back to the place she was before to see if her cousin had alread started coming to her and waited there for him. She removed her scarff once again to lick the ice cream that already started melting.

Matt - Cafeteria
Why on earth did I do that? Matt thought miserably. Could I not have just let it go? It was kind of my fault, I was the one who tripped. He wanted to apoligize, but the girl had already left the cafeteria, probably to get cleaned up. For some reason, Matt found himself being very relieved. He ate his food, looking around the cafeteria. Some people were staring at him, probably because of the fight, and it was making him quite self conscious.

Dani - Cafeteria
Dani gave a sigh of relief when the fight ended. He watched the girl who got fruit in her hair leave the cafeteria, probably to wash her hair, and the second girl go after her. It was then just Dani, and the very nervous boy.
“U-h um uh, Ex-cuse me bu-bu-t…Wh-o are you and wh-y are you hi-ding?” stuttered the boy.
"I'm not hiding, what gave you that idea?" asked Dani, still looking at Allan to make sure he wasn't looking at him. "Well, maybe I'm hiding. Maybe there's someone after me just because I tripped and fell into them..."

"Met me? Fairly unlikely. My entire life i've been inside behind my computer." he said with a smile. He was easing up a bit. The guy looked vicious, dangerous, murderious and violent and spoke with the energy of a ten year old that just drank a gallon of coffee. Never the less he started to like the guy. In a strange, unexplainable, weird way. But he himself could be equally weird when he didn't mind what he was saying. Maybe not act the same but he would start talking about topics that just shouldn't be discussed in public.

Then he turned to Serena when she asked her question. "Yes, i'm afraid. I hate being new. Everything is so unknown. I dislike not knowing where to go or what to do." he explained. That was the truth. He wasn't overly fond of suprises. Once his parents thought that it would be awesome to give him a suprise for his birthday. They all went to the beach. To the ocean! The single, largest place filled with water. David never felt the sand. A cold went over his back because of the memory.

But then he heard about Ryuu's lightsaber. "Did you just say lightsaber?" he asked confused. Would it be one of those fancy glass lightsabers? I hope not. That guy could destroy it in five minutes probably. Maybe a plastic one. But that's just childish. David thought. "Also, Serena, are you new?" he then quickly added. "And what was that about you buying us food?" he then quickly asked at Ryuu again. David was actually very easy to bribe. Give him food and he will like you.

"Well, maybe I'm hiding. Maybe there's someone after me just because I tripped and fell into them..." The guy said while looking at a man at a nearby table. Curious, Zivon looked at the man who was eating his food. He looked at him and felt instantly scared, something from that guy made his spine nearly melt. He felt like something terrible was going to happen.

‘Maybe I should go away’ he thought, that man there could notice and then Bam!! Trouble, he did not want to par take any of this yet his very curious and stupid side that somewhat exist wanted to see what would happen. “He looks really…scary” He muttered out as he grabbed his ice cream sandwich that he had choked on and nibbled on it. He looked back at the purplish black hair guy and still wondered who he was. “Bu-t really…who a-re you?”

Serena

Serena hadn’t even noticed she was being practically carried out of the auditorium along ot cafeteria until they were almost there. She rolled her shoulders as Ryuu released her, her ears flickering in multiple directions as she looked around the cafeteria for the first time. She frowned at Ryuu as he answered her question...in a way. He’s not so bad...just got a certain way to him Serena wasn’t really in any position to be picky about friends. After all her current ‘friends’ were actually all friends of her parents which she told them made them old! Well she didn’t tell all of them that, a certain red haired auntie needn't know she had even though that...

She shook her head trying to focus back on reality, she was about to ask Ryuu a question when his next trail of speech reached her ears. A pink blush slid across the tops of her cheeks and over the bridge of her nose, in slight embarrassment. “I...err...suppose...” She murmured, her tails swaying. “Why won’t they allow you to exercise?” She enquired curiously, trying to keep some kind of conversation going as she walked into the cafeteria, not daring to look around as she could already feel people’s eyes boring into her. I wish I could go to a place where tails were normal...I’m starting to think T lied about there being one Her ears flicked back to focus on David as he spoke to her. “I’m erm...sorry to hear that, I’m sure you’ll learn your way around quickly” She tried to say encouragingly. “Yes, I’m new as well...so I’m just as likely to get lost here” She smiled a little more confidently. “That is a fair point, food would be good right about now” She added, smiling at Ryuu.

This is going well...maybe this fresh start will actually work out “What classes are you two in?” She asked, noting how tense Ryuu still seemed she wondered whether talking would help him relax or if that was just the way he was. She had the feeling it was going to take time before she could tell the difference. Either way she felt a lot more comfortable with the idea of getting to know the two individuals before her, maybe even be friends...though she wasn’t quite sure what that entailed.

“Ah, that’s one of the best things about this place, ranking very close to the delicious food in the cafeteria.” Kathy smiled, explaining how the classes worked. “You skip with no consequences, and attend when you feel like it. In fact, you can probably just drop in unannounced to any class you want if you want to see what it’s like.” Seeing Crash’s enthusiasm for music she asked, “What instrument do you play? Or are you a singer?”

Giving a light chuckle on his idea about white hair dye she added, “Hence why it’s so important to read the instructions first.” ‘Ha ha, he’s embarrassed about his own idea. Glad to see I’m not the only one that slips from time to time. I didn’t think it was bad enough to apologize for though.’ She thought.

Listening to the red-haired boy’s sarcastic comment on Criston’s ability, she couldn’t help but break out into a natural smile. She had kept her thoughts to herself, so it was all the more interesting to hear Crash actually voice a very similar opinion to the one she had.

She couldn’t help but wince a little upon hearing Cyrus mention she could be the star of a circus. ‘Circus freak’ had certainly been one of the many names people had called her in the past. But realizing he hadn’t said it with bad intentions and seemed apologetic for mentioning it, she quickly replied, “No no, it’s fine. I’m not even sure what I want to do with my life after all this, so who knows, maybe you’ll end up being more right than you thought you were.” ‘Speaking of which, I don’t think I’ve ever tried walking on something thin like a tightrope or a flag pole. I should test it out sometime and see how my power works on those.’ She made a mental note to try asking the P.E. teacher permission to try that out in one of the classes.

Realizing that both Crash and Cyrus had been attempting to raise her confidence in her ability she said, “Thank you guys. I’ll keep looking for better ways to put my power to use. At the very least, I’m definitely in the right place to see what I can do.” Then listening to Crash explain his own power she couldn’t help but laugh and mimic his words. “Hey, don’t cut yourself short! Shape-shifting is more than just fun, I’ll bet you’re actually really powerful too.”

Catching sound of an argument brewing, for a moment Kathy’s attention left the table as she watched a white-haired girl and dark-haired boy yell at each other. Her sympathy went out to the girl when she saw the colorful fruits and juices splattered against her long hair, getting a vague idea on what the argument was probably about. Luckily the problem seemed to have resolved itself and the two ended up separating.

“Hey Kathy, question for you.”

Hearing Crash’s voice, her attention was brought back to their table. Giving a hearty laugh, she reached across the table and gave his hair another ruffle. “Silly Crash. That’s not a dumb question at all.” Sitting back down in her seat she continued with a warm smile, “And yup, I’m going to go tonight so let’s go there together. In fact, why don’t we meet up a bit earlier and I’ll show you where the party is taking place? Oh, but since it’s the Student Center I guess you might know how to get there already?”

Ryuu Yamauchi

Ryuu sighed, mumbling when Serena asked him why he was unable to exercise at his place.

"I blew up my room five times. And my sister's... four times. I wish they just built a nuclear bunker for my room or somethin'..."

Now entering the cafeteria, the second son of the Yamauchi family grinned at the smell of food. He also liked the attention he was getting for some reason! Or maybe he was actually a secretly sexy dude who charmed humans like a boss.

A brief squint at several students told him otherwise. He blinked, following the trails of one of the observer's gaze, which landed on her butt.

...

...

...Wait a damn second. Perhaps this is that damned "check-up" gaze from Rosario Vampire?

Ryuu simply stared at one group of students. When they seemed to notice him, he simply smiled.

They ran.

Shit.

...Well, staring at someone's ass is a damn crime, right? Maybe this girl's a natural looker.

He was too stupid to realize that the group of students he looked at (there were probably more people, but he didn't care) was actually staring at Serena's tails... not her butt.

Butt.

The otaku suddenly coughed heavily on his way to the lunch line.

DAMMIT! Ryuu thought depressingly, tempted to clutch his head out of frustration. Why the hell am I thinking about her ass now?! I need to think of something else!

But... a fox is fine t- AGHHHHHHH!!! My mental virginity is going to be shattered...! No wonder I never talked to women other than that brute of a sister!

"Y-Yeah!" He said, answering Serena's question about his classes. "I, uh, got Math, Science, and... Art, and... educational stuff! I bet YOU like educational stuff too! H-H-HuhhaHAhahuhahahuh."

He was going out of control. The otaku hoped that the girl did not go in front of him. He really hoped for that. Really.

"Man, David!" Ryuu said loudly, his cheeks flushed for private reasons. "Those biscuits look awesome, don't they?!?! Actually, tell me what you want! I can buy anything!"

David looked weird at Ryuu when he told them about the exploding rooms. Did he just say...blew up my room? As in...destroyed? And a nuclear bunker. This guy...just blows up stuff. a light cold travelled over his spine again. For his entire life he had to stay quiet and not seem special. For his whole life he had to wait untill it was dark and his blinds could be lowered before he could summon the silvery light in his room. Even then he had to be causious. His parents had caught him when he was younger. They were furious and prohibited him from using his 'freak powers'. Normally he would have listened but he didn't. He didn't want to. It didn't feel wrong.

He then turned to Serena. "I've taken a lot of classses. The most important ones are Economics and Computer Science. I also have History but my parents sort of pushed me into that. It's part of the family honor." he explained with an easy smile. "What about you, Serena?" he asked.

Even when they entered the cafeteria he remained at Serena's side, completely oblivious to how many people were looking at her tails. "Biscuits?" he suddently heard the Otaku talk to him, catching him off guard? "Oh yeah -euhm- look awesome. I'd take a doughnut though, if you don't mind." he tried to say with a little smile. He would have to get used to Ryuu being all over the place.

Allan blocked out everything what was going on in the cafeteria so he could enjoy his meal in peace. His eyes were still closed yet one of his eyebrows was twitching in annoyance. When he finally finished his food, he stood up heading towards one of the garbage bins throwing the remaining trash inside, he then placed the tray on top of the bin where the stack was. Afterwards scurried his way out of the cafeteria and headed to his next destination, which turned out to be his dorm room that he would be sharing with another student.

Along the way he took a quick stop at his locker to get his two bags, one a regular backpack and one a gym bag. After walking out of the main building he made his way into the dorm building and up on the second floor, this whole time he was checking the letter he received about which number he was staying in and the layout of the building. When he found his room number, he stopped right in front of the door thinking to himself for a moment. I'm going to be sharing a room with someone for the rest of the semester...this entire room should belong to me... He thought as he opened the door with the key he received in the mail and walked inside taking a quick tour around the place.

Nobody has been in here yet... He thought as he was given first dibs on which bedroom he wanted. After much thought, he decided to pick the second room away from the entrance and closest to the balcony. He entered his room then tossed his bags on the naked bed and laid back on the bed with his hands behind his head relaxing enjoying the peace and quiet.

Criston - Cafeteria

He sighed at their responses to his powers. People were always so quick to talk down their own powers and so quick to bolster others'. He put a small smile on his face and turned to Cyrus when he asked about music for the party and if there was a piano. He blinked, thinking about it for a moment. "Well, actually yes. The Student Center is on the top floor of the dorm building, Cross Hall." He explained, coughing at the awkwardness of a building being named after his name. "So yeah, there's a piano up there. It's a pretty big space too, so we should generate quite a crowd." He continued. He blinked and looked around the cafeteria, eying everyone. A scuffle there, a lonely student there, a big brute there... He sighed.

The students change but the demographic never does.

He stood slowly. "Sorry, I think I'm going to head to my room. I'll catch you guys at the party. Cyrus, feel free to bring whatever you'd like. Besides well, drugs and alcohol. As Pres, I can't condone that." He excused himself, winking at Cyrus and chuckling. He sauntered over to the outdoor exit of the cafeteria and made way for his house. It was a lovely day outside. The breeze blowing gently, not too cold, not too hot. The sun was baring down on them, but Criston didn't mind. He liked sunlight. Though, it didn't help his natural tan.

As he walked, he ran his fingers through his hair and pulled a strand down into his face.

Maybe I should buy some hair dye...

He smiled to himself and walked up to his house. He stopped when he noticed the door. It had changed. What was one a white door, was now a weird off white with weird flower patterns on it. He blinked, not really believing it. "What the hell is that?!" He shouted, pointing at the door and looking around. No one, of course, was around to hear him so the poor boy was just shouting at a door. He let out a small puff of air, angry and walked up to the door. He rolled his eyes and pulled out his key by charging his hand. The key flew from his pocket and into his hand.

Leave it to mom to make things weird. Why'd she change it though? The door was perfectly fine.

He shook his head and put the key in the lock, turning it.

Kink.

What?

He turned it again.

...

Kink.

"What the hell?!" He shouted, and tried the key multiple times. He even switched keys just to make sure he had the right one. Sure enough, the door wouldn't unlock for him. That was when he looked up and noticed the paper hanging on the door. His eyes twitched as he read the sign.

Dear Criston,

How are you dear? I hope you're well. I've taken the liberty to change the lock on the door. As you can see, I'm not the best at that sort of thing nor do I have the patience, so I just replaced the damn thing. You're not allowed back into the house. I figure it's time you live as a student with the rest of them, since you are a student. Ont he back of this paper you'll find your room assignment and in your room, you'll find your things. I hope to hear from you soon, love.

Love,
Mom

His face emulated his growing rage. He stared at the paper for what seemed like hours, a look of distaste on his face. He ripped the paper from the door and stormed over to the dorms. Looking at the back of the paper, he read the number, 110. He marched into the building and up the stairs and then made a sharp turn to the right and faced the door that read, '110.' A sour look still on his face, he pulled out his I.D. card and placed it on the look mechanism. He didn't need to, he could just open the damned thing with his powers but he wanted to know. He wanted to know that his freaking mother kicked him out and sent him here. Sure enough, the black box blinked green and Criston opened the door.

His expression didn't change as he eyed his things laying on the floor just inside the door. He moved his mouth, making smacking noises. "I'ma kill her. I'm ganna do it." He mumbled, walking over to his things He picked them up and placed them in the room closest to the door. When he left the room, back out into the short open hallway to the living area, he looked around.

Well, it's actually bigger than my room in the house... Oh whatever. I'll just... deal with it. Can't be that bad right?

He sighed, resigned and walked over to the sliding glass doors that led to the balcony. He walked outside and leaned against the railing, watching the people in the garden. Again, several students were out there, talking among themselves.

Lily - Garden

She felt her body tense up as he closed the distance between them, even more so still as he spoke. His words were like candy, flowing ever so sweetly. It wasn't something she was expecting and certainly something she'd ever encountered before. No one had ever been this... disgustingly sweet to her. Still, she wasn't stupid enough to not realize that a red flag was going off in her head.

She smiled sweetly and nodded. "Nervous? Certainly not. Though..." She began. As he got closer to her, she continued, "Though, the sudden closeness is a bit distressing. I've barely met you yet you have already invaded my personal bubble of space." She kept her body still and poised, merely glancing over at him. She smiled sweetly yet again and scooted over a bit, wanting to increase the distance. "Keep your distance, and I don't see why I should be stressed." She told him, her eyes showing her own intent. She wasn't about to let him walk all over her even with his kind words. She wasn't one to be swayed by overly kind words, though she could appreciate them. "While I appreciate your sentiment, I do value my... space." She explained, her fingers messing with her ring once again.

I'm not nervous. I'm fine. Just... treat him as if he weren't... so creepy.

She didn't know why she found him creepy or why he was trying to get so close to her, or why his hand was suddenly on hers. She looked up at him, confusion in her eyes. "I'm sorry if I'm being rude, but is there any reason for your closeness with me? Are you okay?" She asked, tilting her head as she faced him. She looked at his eyes, watching them. Blue pools of... something, something she couldn't quite place.

You'd think I've learned a thing or two in my years but there's always that one that confuses me.

She still couldn't quite place it. She didn't really feel any obvious ill intent but red flags kept popping up in her head.

[i]Why is he touching my hand? Why is he so close? Why is he staring at me?[i]

She just... honestly didn't understand.

Dani - Cafeteria
Dani wiped his forehead. Allan had left, so Dani was free to live for a little while longer.
My school year's going to be ruined because of Allan Dani thought sadly. Aloud, he said "Hold on, I'm going to get something to eat, I'll explain everything when I get back."
Dani jogged over to the line of food and got himself a tray. He picked a few different breakfasty foods such as bacon and eggs, then walked back to the table.
"So, I'm Dani, and this is my first year. After the assembly, I was leaving the auditorium and someone dived right in front of me. I lost my balance, and ended up falling into some guy named Allan. He wasn't happy at all, even though I apologized about a million times. He's been after me ever since."
Dani decided to keep the part about him being a ghost a secret, even though the other boy probably already guessed by his turning translucent.

Drow got back to the place she was just before and saw Criston walk away right before her eyes. She tryed to stop him but she tripped over someone's feet, Almost falling down to the ground she could get her footing back in time. The ice cream that she held dropped to the ground leaving a big mess on the ground and some ice cream on her shoes. She looked at the big mess she made and looked around to see who tryed to make her fall over but all the students looked so innocent. She wanted to follow Criston as the cafeteria lady called her to clean up the mess. She kneeled down and started to clean up the ice cream, She looked around and saw some people laughing at her but she didn't really cared what people thought of her. She got up again the floor was all clean it was rather easy to clean it up. She walked towards the hallway and saw that people still looked at her as she left the cafetaria.

Once in the hallway she didn't see Criston anywhere. I'll pass by his house tonight, He lived rather good since his mom was the principal of this very school. She just couldn't think of living that big since she lived in a much smaller house. She daydreamed in the hallway as a student bumped into her. He walked by her rubbing the spot that hit her saying "What the hell was that!" She started at him for a bit longer and decided to take a walk around the school.

She ended up starting out of the window into the garden. The sun shined bright today it was like 70'F outside to hot to go outside in these clothes. she would end up dropping dead on the ground if she were to. Multiple people were outside they seemed to have fun. Drow only liked winter outside but that won't be for a long time. She kept gazing outside trying to imagine that the whole garden was filled with snow. She muttered "Snow" to herself and wandered of with her mind.

Crash

Crash listened to Kathy explain about classes with a thoughtful look on his face. “Seriously? No consequences...That sounds pretty darn good to me. I was kind of dreading Science, things tend to break around me” He shrugged. A huge grin spread across his face as she asked him about music. “Unfortunately I couldn’t sing to save my life. I do however play the drums, which is why I find it necessary to carry drumsticks on my person. You can never know when a rhythm is needed” He answered. “What about you? Is music your forte or something else?” He enquired.

He chuckled at Kathy’s reassuring jest, giving her an appreciative smile for making light of his slip of the tongue. “That’s the spirit” He encouraged, raising his eyebrows at her and chuckling as she mimicked him. “Alright parrot, I’ll take that as compliment” He jested. “I am all powerful when it comes to the art of changing into cute fluffy animals” He said enthusiastically with a grin. “Though I am surprised you say that, most people freak out because they think I’m going to steal their identity” Crash added, his expression changing to harbour apparent unease as he recalled a memory before a second later (in typical Crash fashion) it was replaced by a jovial expression.

Crash caught sight of a girl breeze past them with fruit in her hair his expression almost instantly shifting to guilt. I didn’t do that... He looked around for the person who had, feeling a pang of sympathy for the dark haired guy. He also happened to notice a very loud dude with sunglasses had entered the cafeteria, he could hear every word from here, he was stood next to a normal looking guy and a girl with tails...3 tails to be more exact. He refocused as Kathy let out a hearty laugh, and ruffled his hair for the second time, he adopted a goofy grin in answer to being called silly. At the mention of going together his smile grew, inwardly he wasn’t so sure about just turning up to a party on his own. “Great is what both of those would be” He decided on saying, a slight pink hint suddenly apparent in his cheeks. “No...should I know where the student center is?” He asked, frowning as he tried to wrack his brain for its location. “I couldn’t even remember where the party was even being held to be fair...” He murmured under his breath, he wasn’t a proud guy but his forgetfulness bothered him.

He glanced at Criston as he spoke to Cyrus, saying exactly where the party was he found that quite ironic...He lifted his hand in a bye gesture as Criston excused himself. “Well...I know where it is now, but there is a very good chance I’ll have forgotten by later” He grinned cheekily. “It’s your call, we can meet up earlier or actually at the party” He offered. He heard a crash behind him and sat up in his chair turning to see a girl who had spilled ice cream on her shoes and the floor just behind him, he held his index finger up to Kathy in a ‘hold that thought’ motion though it looked more like a ‘1 minute’ motion to be fair. He stood up, a frown appearing on his face as a few students just laughed at her without even helping her. Crash straightened up and pulled a dark angry face looming over the students. “Hey, beat it you little urchins” He growled at them, his voice a rumble of hostility as purple smoke rose from him like an aura, his eyes changing to bright yellow color, fangs protruding from his mouth. It seemed enough to scare them; they hurried off before he’d even finished his transformation.

He pulled a few laughs from the other students left in the cafeteria as he finished morphing into a small ginger kitten with big red innocent eyes, he flapped a tiny paw at the retreating students and made a small hissing sound before he turned back to see if the girl was ok, he blinked at the empty space she had occupied a moment before, she seemed to have disappeared. He jumped back up onto his chair, resting his front paws on the table wagging his tail at Kathy before he shifted back in a pouf of purple smoke standing next to the table. “Did I really look that scary?” He asked her, a soft smile back on his face.

Serena

Serena’s ears twitched as she listened to Ryuu mumble about exploding his room. I hate to say it, but I do not envy his roomie... She didn’t noticed Ryuu stare down a group of students as her attention shifted to rest on David as he spoke to her. Her ears swiveled to rest on him as her tails swayed slowly behind her, she was getting increasingly more uncomfortable about them being visible. “They’re important because they are the ones you’re interested in, right? It’s a shame you have to do history if it’s not something you’re not really into...how is history your erm family’s honor?” She asked somewhat awkwardly. Oh god! That’s probably none of my business, why did I ask that? Take it back Just then Ryuu pulled her attention back as he spoke about his classes.

“Erm y-yes I do like educational stuff I suppose” She agreed with Ryuu. “Cool we’ll be in a few classes together then...I’m down for English and Science I think, as well as Art and Astrology” She told them in answer to Davids question. “My uncle signed me up for P.E, he bet me I’d drop out of it within the week...I’m determined to prove him wrong” She added with a determined smile. She reached into the pocket of her jeans as Ryuu turned to David and asked him about ‘Biscuits’ unaware of the color that had swept across Ryuu’s cheeks. She pulled a necklace out of her pocket, it was a simple silver chain with a small pewter animal attached to it, the animal looked similar to a raccoon. She lifted it to her neck, sliding her hands under her hair as she fiddled with the clasp, as soon as it clicked into place her ears and tails slowly faded from sight, as if by magic it would seem. She exhaled as she seemed to lose the attention of the other students, her right eye had brightened from black to oceanic blue now she was no longer afraid and more comfortable.

Bael's eyes twitched slightly when she mentioned that he had invaded her personal bubble of space, the boy faking a wince and incrasing the distance between the two even more, without releasing her hand, however. "Oh, my. By all manners, that was not my intention." He said apologetically, bowing his head towards her; then he released her hand and placed both of his hands together... as if he was praying. But in fact he seemed to be just apologizing, either sarcastically, or in a very strange manner. "I will keep my distance, and I'm very, very sorry." He remained in the same position for a few seconds before raising his head again, staring at her with those... big and blue odd eyes. He sighed quietly.

"What a disaster. My sudden proximity is bothering you, I can feel that. I can see that. Would you please forgive me? I will leave you be, but promise me we can talk once again." There was a sinister sincerity in his words... In fact, it felt as if he had programmed the whole conversation before hand... But only until she asked him the two questions, which made his confident stare shift into an embarassed look around to see if anyone had been staring at the two. "Everything's fine, lady. And the reason, well... I will be sincere. I'm interested in you." He purposelly left the word 'interested' hanging in the air without explication of what sort of interest that would be. Standing himself up, he bowed himself and attempted to gently pick up her left hand with both of his.

"I hope we can meet again, Lily Brightengale. You're certainly interesting." With those dismissing words, he'd start to wander off out of the garden.

Oona:

Oona pulled out her papers, thinking 'i have to apologize to Drow and Zivon later for leaving so quickly, but i don't want to go back in there right now" she stared at the entrance to the cafeteria 'i'll just try and find them later' and so she looked down at her papers "i'm in room 105"

she hurried along the hallways, seeing even more amazing races. she actually found the library and the pool before the dorms.

Oona stared down at the chlorinated water, she didn't exactly like the feel of pool water but she really wanted to go for a swim 'maybe just a dip' then she chided herself, she was both dirty and didn't have a swimsuit, so she reluctantly kept going and eventually came across the dorms. "oh finally" she quickly search through the first floor and found room 105.

Oona knocked, no answer, so she pushed the door open and walked in. right beside the door were 2 cardboard boxes and a little suitcase. the suitcase was hers, the boxes were stuff her parents made her take. as she looked around it didn't look as if anyone else had been here yet so she crosses to the next door closest to the entrance, as she had guessed it was a bedroom, but it was completely bare. even the bed. she went back to the boxes and pulled out the sheets her parents had made her bring and set up the bed. after that she simply moved the boxes and shoved them into one of the corners of her room, she could deal with them later.

Finally, she pulled her suitcase up on to her bed and started sorting her clothes.

Andromeda:

Andromeda finished her small meal and decided that, while the garden was nice, she really should go find her room and so she picked up her tray and quickly poped back into the cafeteria to get rid of her tray before heading out.

(don't know what room she's in or i'd continue)
