I sound like a broken record, but only 2 months left till I'm done teaching. Not sure what's next, but it feels like anything would pay more and be less stressful lol

Teacher update: I feel like a villain from a cartoon. The laughter of teenagers gives me migraines, and I no longer feel guilt when giving bad grades to kids that sleep through my lessons.

Luckily, the others began to introduce themselves as well. The three who introduced themselves were not native Japanese, even if you never saw their appearance. Their names alone gave them away. Steven Schantz seemed to confirm what Kenji had thought, as he also knew what he meant when he referred to "that bus". It seemed that they were all on the field trip to the play... But what did that mean? Why did god choose to revive them of all people? And... why did these people seem so relaxed? Kenji knew that his life wasn't normal, and he was glad to have a chance to help more people, but... these people were different. To Kenji's knowledge, most of these people had good lives. Shouldn't they be freaking out? Or maybe... they thought that it was possible to return? If it was... Kenji sure as hell wasn't going to go back. He had a new life here. He was going to be a damn hero, and he was never going to return to that broken home.
Not when god gave him this second chance.
This final thought was interrupted by the appearance of some new people. They were far smaller than even the shortest members of the group, and they sure as hell weren't human. They had beady eyes and hooked noses, and they wore nothing but a single strip of cloth around their waists. They carried small clubs, and at least two of them licked their disgusting teeth gluttonously. Kenji found his hand on his dagger, and was prepared to unsheathe it at a moments notice. The scent hit Kenji nearly as fast as the sight of these little monsters, and he nearly gagged from the stench. He heard a light whimpering and the sound of Chloe's voice, but it was too soft to hear.
The metal dagger was drawn as Kenji heard the remark of a woman, quite the star in the science department of the school. She also probably had a bright future... Her plan was sound. Climbing the tree was probably the smartest choice,and Kenji doubted the creature's would be able to follow after them with those clubs... But if they managed to reach here fast enough, then it would be easy to finish off the group... Kenji decided to voice out his agreement, being careful that the creature's don't hear.
"She's right, climbing the trees is the safest bet. Even if the goblins tried to follow, we'd be have the high ground by the time they noticed us."
Kenji quickly made his way to a large tree to the west side of the group, being careful to avoid stepping on any sticks lying on the ground, unlike the beasts. Kenji nearly started to begin his ascent, but paused, deciding to wait until a few of the others either started to climb or give a better plan.

Samuel remained still i his seat, lightly sipping the drink that laid in front of him. He never drank alcoholic beverages, for those weaken the faith and minds of those who do partake in it. However, tea was an excellent remedy for his morning sickness. At the very least, it was distracting enough to allow him to ignore the occasional stare at his... rather sickly appearance. Of course, an old man looks tired and sick, what's new? No need to stare as if General Snow just entered the establishment with a whip. Samuel took a swig before calming himself down. They were probably just worrying about him, no need to be upset. As he became lost in thought, he didn't notice that the man who he had been anxious around when the previous day was still around, observing the two as they waited for their group to reform.
What was Samuel doing? He left his village, where he was the only doctor, and set off for some grand journey. And for what? This thought process remained for several seconds until a chill ran down Samuel's spine. He had remembered why he was climbing this damn tower to begin with. He was going t-
"Birdie! Howyadoing? Your feathers looksofine right now!"
The familiar sound of the demon he had met the other day floated to Samuel's ears and, as she did the previous day, she ignored his presence entirely. While this was something that never really bothered Samuel, even when he was younger, it was still quite rude. Nut, she planned to join the group, and Samuel was not going to let his emotions hold him back from his mission! Gabriel tweeted slightly, before clambering onto the scantly-clad girl's outstretched hands. He was then lifted and held against her generous bosom, which resulted in more tweeting from the small bird. Normally, Samuel would have been surprised again by the girl's choice in clothing, but he was far too tired to care. Besides, she'll grow out of it eventually... if they survived the tower.
The sound of bickering and a sickening thud, followed by a high-pitched whine caused Samuel's attention to shift towards the door once more. Standing there was the knife-ear elven woman he had met in the very beginning. She slowly made her way to the table and, as she did so, the scent of burning coal assaulted Samuel's nostrils, and he noticed black streaks in Lena's hair. It reminded him of a boy in his old village whom he had helped through a particularly bad cold. The fairy by her side was met with a cold glare from Gabriel, before he simply closed his eyes to rest. He smiled slightly, before turning his back to the door as an orc man behind the counter appeared.
Samuel tensed considerably as he appeared, and the size of the orc made him rather intimidating to say the least... and he was also an orc. Samuel sighed internally. He really had to kick that bad habit. The orc went on to say that Okami was at the marketplace and prepping supplies for the journey, and that the group was to eat their meal here. The orc also explained that their would be a large amount of rations, and he chuckled before leaving. See? Not all orcs are bad, you racist old coot. Samuel berated himself internally. Considering the two looked nothing alike, Samuel assumed that the orc was most likely a step-father. He then began to dig into the delicious meal laid out before him, being sure to save a large amount of nuts and vegetables for his feathered companion. Even though the bird didn't look very hungry where he was...
The girl, Faera blushed slightly. Apparently, she didn't know his name. The thought of being mock offended crossed Samuel's mind briefly, before quickly being dismissed. Samuel was far too old to play that well and not come off as a creep...
"I am Father Samuel, or simply Samuel if it is easier. I apologize for never introducing myself before!"
A chill rolled down Samuel's spine, but he still did not notice the man that stared at the group. He didn't even notice the fox-like man next to Faera enter a staring competition with him.
Samuel's tea soon emptied. At the very least, they would be able to meet some spirits. Who knows, maybe they'll meet some who Samuel can actually understand! Speaking of spirit he can understand... That eccentric duo from earlier appeared. Lux and Gerald seemed to be doing fine... and it was quite fortunate Gerald was still translating for Lux. Samuel pondered whether or not this group would be able to climb the tower, but soon stopped this line of thought. It didn't matter if they were unable to. Either way, they were going to.
Stop talking already, god! Let a bird get some sleep around here... I spent all night learning how to fly, and it was all for nothing... Oh well. The mighty Gabriel needs to rest his tired eyes, if only some people managed to shut up...
AH!
Oh god! There is the winged maiden! Oh god, Oh god, please don't ask about the whole flying thing yet, please, please, please-
"Birdie! Howyadoing? Your feathers looksofine right now!"
"I am doing quite fine, especially since you have entered my presence! I thank you for the compliment, I do spend much time on my plumage.
Phew... Thank goodness. She didn't ask. Now, I just have to stay away from her for the rest of the day, and I'll be perfectly fine-
Why am I so high up?
Dammit... Even the magnificent softness is unable to fix my sorrow... Now, I am in her grasp, and I must rely on my fantastic luck in order for her to not ask the fatal question...
At least, I have an incredibly soft napping place. These will do nicely to sate my sleep-lust. I gently ruffle my feathers, before roosting.
But it only gets worse. That damn sow... She has the audacity to insult someone as great as I, and then enters my line of sight!? I pray for her undoing.... No. Even though she is not fair by any sense of the word, and she makes a board look endowed, she is still a female. I let her off easy by throwing her a stink-eye, in an attempt to bury the hatchet. Besides, all women, no matter how vile and malevolent, have a place in my harem.
I'm going to go to sleep now...
