Hotaru was a bit surprised when Maverick asked about her face. She didn't think of it as rude at all. Her face honestly was pretty bad earlier after she smeared the blood from her nosebleed. Suddenly he complimented her by saying she had a pretty face as a reassurance of not intending to be rude. Hotaru became quiet and her face turned red. She quickly averted her eyes and stared blankly at her desk. I have a pretty face...? She thought to herself and then began giggling creepily once again, "Heheheh..." Hotaru immediately stopped after realizing she was probably giving her new friends the wrong image of herself. Maverick then asked about the club that she mentioned earlier.

"Oh, you're interested?" Hotaru sounded happy. "Well, I'm not sure exactly what we'd make a club for..." She looked away and rested her chin on her hand in thought. "There's not really anything at this school that hasn't been made into a club already, huh...?" She sighed and then thought of any clubs that she would be interested in joining. That was when the girl who threatened the bully from earlier came into the classroom and snatched a drawings from Haru's hand. She started leaving almost as soon as arriving. "Huh? Wait, why don't you stay here for the rest of the lunch period? I wanted to thank you for defending me earlier," Hotaru stood up and began walking toward her.

"I don't know anyone named Kimura Sakaki... It sounds familiar. I might have overheard someone say the name when I passed by the 3rd year hallway to check if the roof was open." Hotaru answered to Haru who had just returned to the classroom.

Hotaru looked a bit confused as more upperclassmen began entering. She quietly sat still, viewing the scene around her. It made her seem as if she made a ton of friends in minutes. Hotaru began creepily giggling to herself. Yes... My high school life is finally looking up! She thought to herself. Suddenly Hotaru stood up and banged her hands on her desk. "Hey! We should all make an... Ah... Er..." She forgot what she was going say and slowly slid back into her seat. Her face was a bit red and she pretended as if nothing happened just then.

A couple of seconds later, she stood up again just as abruptly. "We should make a club!" She yelled after suddenly remembering. There was an awkward silence afterwards and Hotaru waited anxiously for some feedback. Now that you think about it, I really made no sense just now. I barely know these people. And what the heck would we make a club for? She thought to herself and felt like slapping her cheeks.

Lol Maverick? Popular? Not likely. He is a little bit on the weird side though I guess he could be one of those popular people that don't realize they are popular. Hmm, maybe.

I sorta just assumed considering he was foreign, sorry.. xD

Hotaru was silently munching on her bread angrily while occasionally glaring at the girls in her class. "You know what, screw them..." She mumbled to herself and slouched against her desk. Suddenly someone took a seat next to her. Hotaru glanced up and saw a student that seemed older, and a bit... Eh... This guy looks a bit creepy... She thought to herself nervously and continued eating her lunch. A little while passed and it was still as awkward as ever. Hotaru had already finished eating and not a word was spoken from the boy next to her. Actually, a few students in the classroom noticed and began gossiping like they always do.

"Hey, isn't that guy a 2nd year?" One girl asked another.

"Yeah, he looks scary," another girl answered obnoxiously. Hotaru clenched her fists at their insincerity. Maybe he's like me... Maybe he has no friends either! Without giving it a second thought, she turned toward him at the speed of light.

"H-hey there!" She started off, her eyes gleaming a bit despite her nervousness from her classmates. "You, ah... Uhm... Are you alone?" She asked, making herself sound like one of those creeps who hit on girls late at night. That wasn't right... Let me try again. Hotaru scratched the back of her head in embarrassment. "Why don't you and I become friends?" She seemed a bit more confident this time and hoped for a positive response.

Suddenly the nice foreign boy from earlier entered her classroom as well. Girls began blushing and whispering as they pretty much always did. Whoa, this guy's pretty popular. Hotaru thought to herself and then realized this might get her even more isolated from her classmates. "Oh, hey. Ah, I'm not really alone... I think... Do you want to eat lunch here? I'm already finished with mine though." She tried to start a conversation and to get more friends.

Kuroi quietly entered the Pokemart. Froakie and Honchkrow had been returned, leaving his large, muscular Houndoom to walk beside him in silent, intimidating steps. Calm silver eyes quickly glanced at the figure of a shorter male and a female, before turning over to a shady looking man in a suit. He walked over to the man in measured footsteps, his normal smirk forming on his face."Greetings, Perune." Kuroi said in his calm, silky voice, reaching out a hand. Perune stuttered out a greeting before giving Kuroi a small brown package and dashing out of the Pokemart. Kuroi frowned, but ignored the rude manners, quickly putting the package away. He noticed the store owner's stare, and walked over to the counter."Three antidotes and 10 Poke-Balls..." the trainer said, giving the man a check and grabbing the items without being handed them.

"Now...onwards to Pewter!"

Houndoom sighed, watching it's owner unprofessionally point towards the door with dramatic 'class and flair'.

((I'm sorry, just saw your post))

While checking out her items, Mana noticed the cashier was staring at something behind her. She turned around and saw what seemed to be two shady people doing business in the corner of the store. One of the guys suddenly dashed outside while the other walked to where she was to buy some items. Mana finished up paying for her stuff and stepped aside, closely observing where the boy placed the brown package. Is this some sort of illegal transaction... Is this guy a criminal?! She thought up a bunch of crazy ideas in her head while unintentionally staring. The boy suddenly struck a pose and pointed to the door. Mana was surprised but contained her laughter. So he's heading to Pewter... She remembered that's where she was heading too, but didn't know exactly how to get there. If this guy really is some sort of criminal, I could just follow him to Pewter and turn him to the police. It's killing two birds with one stone! Mana giggled to herself creepily and Dratini looked a bit nervous. After the boy and his Houndoom left, Mana slowly followed behind. She was wearing a different hat, some sunglasses, and a weird coat to disguise herself.

The school bell rang once again and it was now lunchtime.

Hotaru gathered her things and stood up. "I'm starving!" She whined while making her way out of the classroom. Her lunch this morning wasn't very satisfying considering she was only able to eat half of it and that was on the way here. All the other students who planned on buying their lunch rushed to make their ways to the cafeteria. Hotaru squeezed through the crowd of people to buy some bread. "Agh, stop pushing!" She commanded, being thrown around in the crowd. Once she was finally in, all the red bean buns were sold out. Hotaru dropped her head in disbelief. She settled for some melon bread instead and dragged her feet back to the classroom. On the way there, she stopped and remembered how she always read about highschoolers eating on the roof and living their youth to the fullest.

Hotaru sprinted up the stairs, passed the second and third year floors, and found the door to the roof. Slowly and dramatically, she grabbed the knob and twisted. It was locked. Nooo..! Hotaru fell to her knees in depression. She returned to her classroom and quietly ate her bread alone in the back corner. That's when she realized that she had no friends. No other students really made contact with her ever since the incident in the morning. Hotaru made eye contact with a group of girls in the classroom and smiled. They whispered a few things and then turned away. These jerks... She thought to herself and then just glared at her bread.

By the way, Erklings, I understand that your character is a bully and all, but do you think you can tone it down a bit? Or at least be a bit more realistic? Honestly going around and rapidly punching people around the school would've gotten you expelled by now. I'm not saying that you cant do that at all... But, eh, you know what I mean right? :\

Yeah, that's what I'm gonna do. I hope no one has something planned for right now, cause I'm skipping to lunch. xD
