The Uisilons

He couldn't believe it, but they were finally on the surface. All of their work that went towards this moment had finally arrived...but it was far from being over.

Carter walked alongside Asa, both wearing sunglasses and trying to look the least suspicious among the Mundanes. Carter didn't know what he expected up on the surface, the way the Mundanes acted didn't seem all that different from themselves. The way their world worked, however, was obviously distinctive. All that was fed to their people was the lie that they were merely terrorists without anything behind their reasoning.

There was a strange, uncomfortable feeling circulating in his stomach. The feeling had lingered there ever since they came up, and it was hindering his mood. At first he thought he was just simple anxiety, but he was now beginning to realize what it meant.

While Carter was deep in thought for too long, Asa was the one that got his attention, asking him what was on his mind. Carter didn't answer for a moment, trying to think about how to put it into words. He wasn't usually a deep thinker, but due to all this change he never got the chance to sit down and think about things.

"Not really sure how to put it." He uttered out, feeling like there was no other choice than to say what needed to be said. He thought about making up some crap about a migraine, and he might have been able to pass with that, but Asa was the only person who he could talk to and not feel like he bruised his pride.

"It's just kind of scary, you know? Having to face it, actually coming up here and realizing that it's true." His voice then became more quieter as he continued, paranoid that someone would overhear it.

"To them, we really don't exist. That complete ignorance, it's..." He trailed off, then glanced to the side to look at the musicians on the street. That ignorance reminded him of himself for so many years, thinking back on it, a part of him was still bitter about it.

Much to his surprise, Daemon knew the cashier and they greeted each other with a kiss on the cheek, which Matt was taken aback to at first. “Wait, so are they like...well of course not, I think he's single, but I wonder if they were ever dating...?” Matt immediately tried to shake the mental image out of his head. When Daemon introduced them, Matt smiled and had to remind himself that his name was Blaine.

"Please tell me he bats for our side." Hadrian begged, causing Daemon to laugh again. Matt stuttered as he totally didn't expect to hear that.

After Daemon turned around to grab some candy Matt could feel himself screaming on the inside. Answering up for his sexuality wasn't something he was prepared for, and Matt didn't know what else to do but smile and laugh. Honestly, he couldn't give him a straight answer if he couldn't even be sure for himself. Thankfully, Hadrian didn't dwell on the questioning and asked him about the training camp.

“Hahaha...y-yeah you know, gotta start somewhere...” Matt laughed nervously and his voice seemed to crack the more Hadrian leaned on him. The sad thing was this might have been the first time he ever came close to being hit on, and that was saying a lot about him. Matt didn't realize it until they had quieted down, well, expect for Daemon who was laughing it up, that his face was becoming red.

Matt cleared his throat and glared with an eyebrow raised at the bags sitting on the counter. “Look who's talkin, jelly bean junkie. 10 bucks got handed to you, and out of all the things you could have bought...” Matt sighed and shook his head, unable to finish his sentence.

H.UN.T(Sunja and 'Gumi)

When they got back at home, Matt finally felt at ease. This secret identity thing was starting to irritate him, but he hoped he'd get used to it...eventually. He changed his outfit quickly into casual jeans and a navy blue t-shirt. He was reading magazine with some of the local restaurants in the city when Damon came back in, in his civilian attire, and looked like he was about to go somewhere.

“Any closer I wouldda ripped those 10 bucks out of your hands...” He grumbled, but followed Damon regardless, he had no other choice. He still couldn't believe Damon would actually buy 10 dollars worth of candy jelly beans when he could have gone for some chipotle. “He would have never stricken me as a guy who likes candy...” Matt gazed at him skeptically as they walked, “He's just really...unpredictable. It's scary.”

They walked for a short distance when they arrived at a candy shop (Matt was amazed that stores dedicated to candy actually existed) and a bell rung as they walked in. He glanced around the bright isles and looked confusedly at all the candy he had never even heard of in his life.

Junko had got herself a long drink of water before she came back to the field and let out a sigh. Maybe she worked herself a little harder than she expected, but it was all good. She just needed to sit down for now, take a little break. Junko glanced for an open spot on the field when she noticed a familiar boyish figure in red shorts doing stretches. She tilted her head and noticed it was her roommate, Reiko. She started walking closer to get at a talking distance, when she suddenly hesitated. “This really sucks. I really don't know anyone except her.” She didn't know why, but Reiko was kind of unapproachable in the social aspect, she just had that vibe. “Well I'm already here, I might as well just make small talk. I'm sure the class is about to start soon, anyway.”

“Yo, R...Uh, Ishida-san.” Junko put on something of a friendly smirk and waved. “Mind if I sit here?” She asked, but sat down next to Reiko anyway. There was a good distance between them, enough for Reiko to finish stretching. Junko wiped the sweat from her forehead and gazed around the field, waiting for class to begin.

H.UN.T(Sunja and 'Gumi)

Mercy, Irradiate, and the other recruit all fell strangely silent as they watched Lucid crack up with hearty laughter. Koyaani glared at Lucid's expressive response.

"Dude, of course I was serious, I could buy like four bags of Jelly Bellies with ten dollars." Lucid replied, and with a little bit of bugging Mercy was finally able to settle him with a 10 dollar bill.

“You are un...believable.” Koyaani uttered out with fatigue.

Once Mercy left the room and the veterans were through with their arguing, it was training time for Koyaani and Irradiate's recruit. The training lasted about two and half hours (with a break in between) of the mentors sharing techniques and answered some questions. However, it was Irradiate, more specifically who handled most of the talking. Lucid didn't seem as into it as the other mentor did. He chimed in every now and again making some kind of snark comment and “Lightbulb” back-lashing. It was a (somewhat) progressive first day of training.

---

Koyaani let out a sigh of relief when they finally exited the H.UN.T headquarters. He now felt less anxious about his training here now that he was slowly becoming comfortable with the way things worked.

“Well, what now?” Koyaani turned to Lucid and asked, then paused. He immediately remembered Lucid's plan for the 10 bucks that Mercy gave him. The words “Jelly bellies” repeated over and over in his head and hoped he wouldn't...actually go buy candy.

H.UN.T(Sunja and 'Gumi)

Koyaani was all for trying new things, or at least, he always thought he was. He spent the entire motorcycle ride with Lucid trying to hold on and hoping he wouldn't fall off of it and die. Alas, that would be his death after spending a day at his new job...falling off a motorcycle and dying. He felt like a little part of his pride died too after holding onto Lucid for a whole hour. Well, he wasn't here to look cool anyway, he was here to learn...and there was a hell of a lot to learn while he was here.

When they finally reached the H.UN.T taskforce it only now occurred to Koyaani that he had no idea what kind of mission to expect while they were here, if it even was a mission. They soon met up with the woman he saw yesterday, Mercy, initiating things with Lucid. Koyaani glanced around until he started catching up with the conversation, Lucid obviously lying about the warehouse thing. Koyaani was completely okay with that, especially after the scary look on Mercy's face. He feigned ignorance.

Mercy grit her teeth. "Anything else?"

"Yeah." Lucid smirked. "You owe me ten bucks."

Koyaani had stayed quiet all up to this point. “Son of a---...S-Seriously...!?” Mercy looked like she had completely lost it too and started stuttering. “I can't believe he was serious about that! Is that cocky bastard smirking under his mask? I bet he is, wow, yeah, laugh it up pal.”

Koyaani tried to take a deep breath and stop himself from saying something he'd regret. Besides, Lucid did lie for him just a couple of moments ago.

Idk if I'm kinda late (cries sorry this ooc updates a lot lol) but I don't really see so much of a problem Silver's character..? Lily has some interesting traits that make her seem pretty unique as opposed to the rest of the cast. Similarities could bring characters together as well. (Like Junko is from the country and if Silver makes her character from the country they could bond about it!!!) Don't try to sweat your character's sheet too much Silver, I'm sure she'll be a great addition to the RP! Change what you feel is right, but don't stress it too much.

The sunlight was very bright in the classroom and warmed Junko's arms and face while she closed her eyes. It felt comforting...and before she knew it, she feel asleep. She was dreaming of the long field back at home, the crops would have been up to her hips at this time of the year. In the background there were people talking, and she walked around the field in a confused daze. Wasn't that was what was going on during class? What was she doing here? Junko heard a bell ring and she started running. She had to get back to school...

Junko jolted awake and felt extremely confused. She glanced at her side to see Tsukuba-Sensei looming over her with a slight glare. Junko looked around and noticed the entire class was already gone. “Shit.”

“Well, Kuriyama-kun, looks like you slept in the first day of my class. I'd love to see how the rest of the year is going to turn out for you.”

Junko laughed nervously and shot up, immediately trying to get her things together. “I'm so so so SO sorry Tsukuba-Sensei, it won't happen again!” Her teacher didn't get a chance to respond before Junko was running out of the classroom and trying to make it to her next class.

Junko promised herself she wouldn't doze off in the rest of her classes, but she felt sleepy throughout all of them. She was counting off the minutes and hours until she got to go to physical education. By the time she made it to math, her more liked subject, even that felt like torture for her. When the bell finally rang, her mood felt renewed. The skies were clear...the weather was pretty good, and she had gym next.

---

The bell rung just as Junko arrived in the locker rooms. She was sweating a bit, but that was just a warmup. Or unless they did some warmups in class, that was a pre-warmup. She had already gotten her uniform in her hand, and locker number and was ready to rumble. She got dressed and headed out to the field.

There wasn't very many people out on the field. She noticed a girl that looked like she had tattoos...wait, wasn't that the girl that she met earlier on in class today? She sighed as she remembered she didn't play basketball. If only she knew the potential she held. But for now...Junko had work to do. She felt like doing some jogs around the track. She jogged calmly and felt relieved to finally move her legs freely. Junko felt extremely giddy and started screaming, “YEAAAH!” as she sped up her pace and arrived where she began.

That was it. Matt couldn't continue this. He had two slices left but it was complete torture, they looked so delicious, but his stomach said no. He was about to say something to Damon as he glanced back up at him, but noticed something...strange about his appearance. He seemed paranoid. Suddenly, Damon's comm. link was ringing. Without a chance to ask or say anything, Damon ran to his room and vanished from sight. Matt instead stared at his plate. “I'll deal with you later.” He got up and put the toast in the fridge, hoping to finish it sometime during the day, when his hunger kicked back in.

Just at the right time, Damon came back in with his mask on. At the sight of that, Matt already knew what was going on.

"Hey, Koyaani, suit up." He called, knocking on the kitchen's archway. "We're heading for H.UN.T in fifteen."

Matt closed the fridge door and started moving. “Aye aye captain.” He smirked and looked around in the next room for his stuff. It was scattered all over the place, but he was able to find everything. While he started changing in the living room he froze for a moment. “Shit. I hope I don't get cramps.” His mood dropped a little bit and hoped that his stomach would be able to handle the movement. “Maybe I should drink protein shakes in the morning and eat solid food later...”

By the time he finished changing, he looked around for Lucid. “Alright, I'm ready.”

Hey just making sure, but are we skipping straight to P.E (with classes in between) or is P.E right after the class they have?
