#Introduction --- ###September 2nd, 8:07am, Introduction Day. ####School starts for kids not in 9th grade at 10:00am and ends at 2:00pm. School starts for 9th graders at 2:00pm. --- Most of Kadic is lined up outside the principal's office, though some are late. Each student is called into his office one at a time, and given their papers with information about what classes they will be taken, and what rooms they are assigned if they are new. Everyone seems to be moving pretty fast, and may end soon if those late arrive on time. Those finished are allowed to go to their rooms and do as they like until school starts. --- **[Josive]** Josive stands nearby the office door, waiting for his name to be called. He noticed new kids were being called up first, so he was sure he would be called up soon. His theory was correct when his name was called, and he stepped into the office behind the kid who had just left. The door closed behind me, and I gulped as I watched it close. I turned around to face principal. "Please, come over Jeremi-" the man started to say, then stopped himself suddenly. "Oh, I'm so sorry... it's just... you remind me of one of my favorite students." he said, kind of moving around in his chair awkwardly after his mix up. "Please, come over Josive." he said after looking over his notes. I sat down in the chair, and put my hands on my lap. _I knew I should have put on my glasses... this stress is making things blurry._ I thought to myself. "Here are your papers, and your assigned room. You don't mind bunking with another student, do you?" he spoke as he handed the papers over to me. I grabbed them slowly, and looked up at him. "Um... no. No problem." I managed to get out. "Good! Have a good day. Class should start in..." he started to say, looking over at his clock as he read it, "Wow, two hours!" he exclaimed, "This is going by quicker than I thought. Maybe we should have started class at nine today." he then muttered to himself. He waved me off, and started shifting through his papers for the next student's papers. I walked out the door, and bumped into some lady holding a drink in her hand. It spilled out onto herself, and dripped down onto her shoes. "Oh! Regardez ce que vous venez de faire!" she yelled at me angrily. "You're making a fine first day _Josive._" she said to me. _How did she know my name?_ "Don't look so shocked. I'm the principal's daughter, Sissy. I know everyone's name. Now out of my way!" she explained to me, then shoved me out of the way. Another student was being called into the office, but she walked through the doors as the student opened the door, then closed it behind her. I was all shaken up, I wasn't sure what to do at that point but stand there...

**Sam** I was whaiting with the other kids in the hall outside the principal's office. Some kids were already talking to eachother about stuff like what they were going to do that year. I knew what I was going to do: Eat, do school, eat some more, do some more school, make homework, game, eat again, game again, sleep and repeat the process. There was no one that I knew or wanted to know, so why even bother trying? I heard my name, so I came into the office. The principal seemed to be distracted by something, so he was looking the other way. Without making a sound, I walked towards his desk. After he seemed to still not have noticed me by than, I faked a cough to hopefully get his attention.

<Sam>: The Principal seemed to almost jump at your cough before turning around. "Oh, I didn't hear your name being called." he mumbled almost too himself. He shifted a few papers around until he found a few labeled with your name on it. "Ahh, Sam Spark. Here are your papers. They will tell you what classes you will attend this year, and what room you are assigned. We are running out of rooms now, and have to bunk a few of you together in the same room.... Uh..." he shifted through some of his papers, counting too himself while moving his lips in sync with what he was reading. "Would you mind having a roommate in your room? Almost no one's agreed to this yet, so I need a few more people..." he asked you, almost wanting to command you to take it, but not wanting to be forceful.

**Sam** I was listening to what the principal was saying. I then thought about it for a moment, and answered: "I'm fine with it, as long as I don't have any problem with the other person, but I will let you know by then if there is any, sir." I especially made sure the 'sir' sounded trustworthy, so I could impress the principal a little. If I learned one thing from all the orphanages and foster homes, it was that there was no bad word against an adult, especially if he had allot of control, so you could better have them as your friend.

**Lonnie Hélène** I was simply enthralled by all the hustle and bustle in the hallway, as I stood, fingers clasped together as I brought them up near my chin and grinned. I could honestly feel the exciting reverberation that was around me. It was so contagious. But of course, not everyone was talking, most if not all of us were new, so it made sense that most people didn't want to talk to someone they didn't know. Not yet anyways. Honestly though, I hoped no one would question me on my gender. As if I hadn't already been down that road numerous times already though. _You look just like your mother_, they say. I sighed and brought my hands down and grasped them together behind my back, watching intently as students were being called into the office and leaving relatively quickly. One in particular came out and accidentally collided with another girl, prissy looking. I rolled my eyes and chuckled softly to myself, watching as the girl scorned him. Another kid was called into the office, but I didn't pay attention, my focus was stationed on the boy who had caused the girl to spill some kind of drink on herself. Poor thing, he looked so flustered as he watched the girl who called herself Sissy storm off. I teetered myself over to the boy in a jolly fashion, and followed his gaze to where the girl just left, taking a moment to run my hand along my long ponytail. I looked at him from the corner of my eyes and giggled. **"Cheer up laddie, I'm sure she knows you didn't mean to do it. Though, she looks like the type who can hold a mighty grudge"**, I said in a playful tone, taking a brief moment to pat his back before resuming my original position with my hands clasped behind my back. I swiveled and faced the boy. **"My apologies, the names Lonnie"**, I said, my bright feminine face glowing with the opportunity to form a new friendship. There was nothing like meeting new people.

Chàrlie's pursed lips released a huffy sigh. Summer vacation was over, time for the new school year. She leaned casually against the wall in the hallway, one of her curls twisting around her finger continuously. Her brown eyes coolly regarded those before her, the newer students. Chàrlie wondered if any of them were potential friends. She was actually nervous for this new semester; all her friends had been older than her and now she would no longer have classes with them, since they were now in high school. And her best friend, Ana, had moved away over the summer to attend a school in Spain. Chàrlie felt lonely. Her attention was grabbed by the showy display of annoyance Sissy had with one of the newer boys. Brown eyes rolled as Sissy let out a mean remark to the poor boy. The drink that had spilled on her, Chàrlie thought internally, must've been an act of godly justice. At her little quip, she giggled quietly. Sissy would never change in attitude, it seemed. This would be Chàrlie's third year at Kadic, and possibly her last. Chàrlie supposed, looking around her, that she should at least try to make it an exciting one. She just didn't know where to start. Chàrlie nonchalantly stepped up in line, still a trail of newer and younger kids in front of her. It would be her turn soon enough to receive her schedule and new papers. Thankfully, she didn't have to worry about dorming, her grandmother lived fairly close to the school and was within walking distance. She wouldn't have to be anxious about possibly getting an obnoxious roommate.

<Sam>: The principal smiled as you agreed to take a roommate, expecting you to not have agreed. "Your will know who you're bunked with after I send them to your room." he spoke after you had completely finished. He seemed to like how you said sir, having a very slight effect on his mood towards you. "Okay then! Sam." he finished, turning back to his papers, signifying you were finished. He didn't make any hand signals, or say you could leave... but that's what was signified by his turning his back to you. [Josive] As the other kid, a girl or a boy I couldn't quiet tell, walked up to me, they tried to cheer me up by telling me the girl Sissi didn't mean it. Or probably didn't. I nodded slowly, accepting what he said as best I could, but the thoughts still lingered in my head. "My apologies, the names Lonnie." the other kid explained who he was. I put on a fake smile, but didn't offer my hand as he hadn't. "I'm Josive." I simply replied, not wanting to say very much more. _Well, at least he's friendly... maybe I should try to be friendly back. If I'm going to be here in school, I might as well attempt to make friends. I don't even know who my roommate will be, for all I know this Lonnie might be... if he's a he._ I thought over saying anything more. Eventually, I convinced myself to make my smile more genuine. "It's nice to meet you. Thanks... by the way. I guess she knows I didn't mean it. But... she could have been a little nicer. I hope I don't have to run into her too often." I tried my best to open up. I tried examining the person more, trying to figure out whether they were a boy or a girl. I opened my mouth to ask, but I didn't. They said their name was Lonnie... that's a boy's name, right?

**Arndt Schulz** Arndt dusted off his clothes after being driven to what would be his new school. It didn't exactly look very big, but it was a boarding school after all. Arndt readjusted his beanie, so as to give off a better first impression, and straightened out his shirt. He took his first few steps into campus, spotting what was likely the Principle's office, the line-up of students giving it away. He casually walked towards the line, attempting not to stand out or look weak. He was only a little wait, at the fault of his driver stopping to get breakfast along way. But, he still had a chance of checking in. As Arndt reached the back of the line, he could see a bit of a mishap up front. _Sucks for that kid. On the first day, too,_ he thought to himself. Arndt examined people in the line, listening to conversations that popped up. He knew next to nothing about the school, not even where the dormitories were, and listened desperately for clues. Arndt stood hunched over with his hands in his pockets, waiting and thinking. After a moment of impatience, he attempted to strike up a conversation with the person in front of him. "hey, uh, it would be great if I could get directions to the dorms. Oh, and, maybe some tips on what to expect. I have no experience with boarding schools, so that'd be great." He gave a bit of a grin, and thought to himself, _Amazing, you've messed it up already. May as well should call it quits now._ Arndt stood, waiting for an answer.

**Sam** I left the office. I knew I still needed to set up my laptop, so I told myself to go to my dorm. I read the papers I just got, trying to find out where it was when I accidentily bumped into a girl, wich made me drop all my papers. "Excuse me," I said, than started picking them up again. _Darn, why does the first day have to go so bad already. I just want to game a little before I need to go to class._

<Arndt>: "Hmm?" the kid you asked responded to your question as he turned around to face you. "Oh, hey. Well, we're all waiting in line to be given our papers telling us what classes we are to do, and assigned our rooms." the kid answered your question. "Directions? Sure! I can help you out afterwards. I'm a student here already, but I still need to be assigned my classes." he said with his hands in his pockets like yours. He pulled out one hand and offered it too you, "My name's Mike!" he said, waiting for you to accept his offer of a handshake.

**Arndt Schulz** "Thanks Mike," Arndt responded, grabbing Mike's hand and shaking it with a relieved sigh. "Rooms? So we live on campus? I don't know what to think about that. Oh, sorry. My name's Arndt, I'm a new student here, this is my first day in France to. It's a nicer place than I thought." Arndt rubbed the back of his head and smiled, not knowing if that was offensive or not. _Well, at least I can talk to someone now,_ he thought to himself.

<Arndt>: "No problem!" he replied to you. "Yeah, everyone except for the ninth graders stay on campus. You don't have to, if you live somewhere else, but most people do. Your parents should have told the principal whether or not you're going to stay at home anyway." he gave you extra information. He took note of you scratching the back of you head, though not with any expressions. "Ahh, a nervous one? No problem! I was pretty nervous too when I first came to Kadic. Your'll get used to it! Oh, and welcome to France by the way. Well, Bonjour, as we say here in France! Oh, by the way, it's customary to greet people with Bonjour, just as a future heads up."

Sayuri watched what was going on around her with a general feeling of distaste that she made no effort to hide, *'Really why did they have to send me off how many miles from the only two friends I have just to keep me from fighting? It's not like I've actually started more then one fight. That was only because they were about to attack Mina... Stuck up pricks,'* then she heard her name called. Standing up and stretching she walk into the headmasters office and holds out her hand, "Pleasure to meet you Headmaster."

<Sayuri>: "Ahh, please, sit down." the principal said after shortly standing and shaking your hands with both of his. Once he sat back down, he waved with one hand as if to dismiss what you had said, "Please, call me Mr. Delmas." he offered a short smile. "Here are your papers. They will tell you what classes you are to take for the year, and what room you will be staying in. Is it okay if you have a roommate? We need more volunteers since we are running out of rooms. It's alright if you don't want too..." he said, sitting back in his chair and awaiting your answer. It was clear once you answer, you were clear to leave.

Jacob groaned as he walked up to the school his younger sister, Madeline, skipping along behind him, another year here in France, while yes he was able to speak the language and several others he missed home, he missed London. The rain, the fog, and the dirty old Thames river France was nice but it just wasn't home. As he walked towards the academy he sighed, he really didn't want to wait in line but his sister insisted he come with her. So as he stood waiting he wondered who he would get as a roommate this year. He hoped for a decent person as well as a clean one, he hated a messy room, he pulled out his phone checking the time and sighing as he waited patiently for him and has sister to be let in.

Sayuri takes the papers and nods, "I have no present issues with having a roommate. Thank you I'll be leaving now... I hope my parents didn't make any requests when they enrolled me," She gets up and walks back into the crowd of students outside the office. Looking around as she walks she notices a girl who looked rather nervous, *'Might as well at least try to make a friend,'* walking over she smiles though she still looks perticlarly annoyed, "My name's Sayuri I'm new to the school. I'm hoping you could help show me around."

Chàrlie stepped up in line once more as a girl went in. She tapped her foot impatiently, there were still plenty in front of her. God, this would be so much quicker if they had made the older students go in first because they knew the drill. A small frown tugged at the corner of her lips, and she crossed her arms over her chest. She moved up again, but simultaneously a boy swerved to avoid the traffic of the hallway, and careened directly into her. The papers that filled his arms seemed to explode in a flurry. Chàrlie stiffened in alarm, them realizing what had happened, let out a groan. As the boy hastily gathered up what he had dropped, saying a prompt "Excuse me." Chàrlie bent over, almost knocking heads with the boy as she squatted to help him. "Here, let me help you out." She grabbed some of the papers closest to her, smoothing out the more roughed up ones. She stood and handed what she had collected to him. "Here you are," and reading his apologetic expression, added on an "It's alright." Minutes later, the girl that had walked in previously finally exited Mr.Delmas's office. She averted her eyes from her gaze, not wanting to draw attention to herself further, but to no avail. The girl headed straight toward her, a forced smile on her face. It seemed she was in the same boat that Chàrlie was in, compelled to make new friends. However unlike Chàrlie, the girl was new. She introduced herself as Sayuri, and Chàrlie in response nodded her head and smiled. "Welcome to Kadic Sayuri. Happy to have you here." A possible lie, she didn't know how the girl acted, she could be as rude as Sissi. She stepped up in line again. She turned to face the line, but still continued to talk to the girl. "Je m'apelle Chàrlene, but you can call me Chàrlie. Sure I can show you around-- meet me here and I'll make good on my promise. I just have to talk to Monsieur Delmas and get everything all set. D'acorrd? That okay?" She tilted her head and looked at her, brown curls bouncing ever so slightly. Her gaze flicked to the boy, who was still there. "You come too, non?" Finalement. It was her turn. She waved at Sayuri and the boy then walked into Monsieur Delmas's office. She sat down in the seat before his desk, smiling politely at the principal. "Bonjour, Mr. Delmas. Long time no see? Surprised to see me back?" Before he could reply, she abruptly got to the point. "I'm staying with my Mémé Lani again this year, so I don't have to board." Her smile turned more prettily, and she batted her eyelashes. "So you don't have to go through the trouble of setting me up with a roommate."

**Sam** I accepted the papers from the girl I bumped into, than tried to get them in the correct order again. I didn't know what to do. In a game I was confident, but now in real life, I was pretty nervous, especially because the girl was so nice to me. "I, eh... I need to go." I said hastily, than quickly walked away again. I mostly had everything under control. Especially with adults, as I mostly knew how they worked. But as soon as something went wrong, or something unexpected happened, especially with someone around my age, I didn't know what to do. I just told myself to walk further and not look back, but I did anyway. I saw she was now distracted by another girl, so I had not much to worry about. I walked further, and eventually found my dorm. I opened the door...

##September 2nd, 8:49am, Introduction Day. ####School starts for kids not in 9th grade at 10:00am and ends at 2:00pm. School starts for 9th graders at 2:00pm. --- <Chàrlie>: "Uh- oh- um-" Delmas tried cutting in as you started talking quiet quickly before himself. Of course, after you had finished, he didn't say anything for awhile. He simply shrugged his shoulders and sifted through his papers to find the one's with your name on it. "Well... that's good. Thank you miss Chapeau. You know, I would really wish if you could tell me this before.... I have to do all this work assigning rooms, and now I'm going to have to make a few adjustments." he sighed as he handed over the papers. "Well, since we're so cramped this year, it shouldn't be _too_ hard... I'm already assigning everyone roommates in a hap hazard fashion as it is...." he mumbled too himself, turning his chair to the rest of his papers. He quickly stopped, and turned his head back towards you, "Okay, send in the next student for me, will you?" [Josive] I eyed the boy who had bumped into some girl, who almost didn't see him at first, but was genuinely kind about it. _Of course._ I sighed to myself. _I had to get the mean one, and make an enemy on my first day. I don't need distractions like this!_ "Well... it as nice meeting you. I guess I'll see you around, since we're... Okay, bye." I said to the boy I was talking to, then quickly turned around and made my way through the line, as well as the various groupings of kids. _Why is there a line? How do the know who's being picked? It's not like they're going alphabetically._ I walked around the halls by myself for awhile, eventually bumping into several class rooms by mistake. At which point I gave up was when I entered the gym room. "Ahh, mother- dang it- I'm going to-" I heard a voice yell from inside the room as I opened up the doors. There was this big adult, jumping on one leg, holding his foot in the air with his hands. It looked like he knocked over a bunch of equipment over, and one landed on his foot. "Uh..." I accidentally let escape my mouth. He froze in a cartoonish way, quickly turning his head after he figured out what was going on. He stamped his foot onto the ground, and spinning to face me head on, while fixing his posture as if nothing had happened. "What are you doing in here? Shouldn't you be getting your room assigned to you?" he asked me. I shuffled the papers under my arm a little bit, and spoke, "Um... I've already got my papers. I don't know where the dorm rooms are though... uh... sir...." he quickly hurried towards me, pushing me lightly out of the room and closing the door behind him, as if to cover the mistake he had just made. "Don't worry! I'll show you too your room." he said, waving his hand at me. "Name's Jim Morales. People just call me Jim though." he said with a smile as we walked towards my new room. I slowly started to respond, but couldn't come up with anything more than, "Josive."

**Lonnie Hélène** _Josive_...that's an interesting spin on the name Joseph_, Lonnie thought to himself, but smiled all the same, gleaming around his surroundings why trying to simultaneously hold the conversation. The boy was so timid, how cute. Lonnie made a silly gesture with his finger towards where the girl left and formed his hand into a thumbs down. He chuckled softly. **"Yes...she could be a little nicer but, when your dad is the principal of the school, your ego can get a little inflated"**, he said honestly. Lonnie patted Josive's back briefly in a reassuring manner before going back to his original posture. Sissy was such a prissy little thing. Not many dared to counter her aggressiveness. Sometimes a piece of ones own medicine is exactly what one needs. **"Oh....you'll be seeing her again. Believe that lad"**, Lonnie chimed in casually, though in a tone not to make any future encounters the boy and sissy had alarming. She was practically harmless. Practically. Before Lonnie could continue on, the boy, Josive, made a quick haste somewhere. Lonnie briefly frowned, but shrugged. **"Bye then..."**, he whispered under his breath. Moments later he was called into the office. His lovely violet eyes went all giddy as he skipped into the office. **"Bonjour Monsieur Principal"**, he said in a graceful tone, waiting for a response. He hoped by this point, at least the principal knew he was a boy. Or...at least he hoped.
