Tsukiko reluctantly followed her brother toward the exit of the arena only to have her grab her brother's hand and tug on him to wait. He turned around and with a very cold look embolden on his face. "Shinrei wait!" She exclaimed as she wasn't ready to head toward the dorms yet. She wanted to explore the area for awhile and wanted her brother to tag along with her. She was tired of her brother deciding what she needed to that she was not going to let him see her off to her dorm until they actually spent some time together. She was still a bit irate from earlier where she tried to lift her brother's spirits only to have him blow her like he did earlier. The fact he just treated her like anyone else who he didn't want anything to do with made her a bit upset. When Shinrei asked her what she wanted with such a very cold-hearted tone she took her hand and slapped him very hard across the face. She had enough of him treating her like he did.
Shinrei looked away and down toward the ground as his face throbbed from the slap. He looked upward as he brushed his hand across his face to feel the red mark she left noticing that she was really upset. He had finally realized that he was becoming just as bad as his father. "I'm sorry..." Were the only words he could manage to muster up as she continued to look at him with a fierce look on her face which was full of anger. Tsukiko closed her eyes and told him that she had forgiven him. She wanted to open her brother's closed heart and try to get him to come out of that shell he was hiding in, but she knew that would take time. Sure she also was cautious about new people, but she didn't shut herself from the complete world like he did.
The silver haired maiden decided to find some people that she could talk with. She knew her brother probably wouldn't like the fact she was dragging him over there, but he needed to make up for his poor behavior toward her earlier. She wasn't about to let him off the hook after he said right before they arrived at the Duel Tower while still in transit that he was nothing like their father. The way he acted just a moment was clear indication that the roots of his father were slowly growing on him and that she would have to keep in line. Besides, she could take care of herself and she didn't always need her brother deciding everything for her. She wasn't a child after all that is certainly how she felt a moment ago when he tried to drag her off toward her dorm without trying to enjoy themselves while they had the chance.
"Over there!" She said as she continued to drag her brother along for the ride. Didn't seem her brother was particularly happy about being dragged around. The long sigh and large frown on his face was indication that he was not enjoying himself at all. He couldn't really complain though since he did come to realization that he was acting poorly toward her earlier.
She dragged him along over toward three people which were two boys and girl which was Haas' group. One boy had brunette hair, a second with a long black ponytail and the girl look like she was the black haired boy's sister. This was a perfect chance for her to make conversation with people and hopefully try to get her brother to be nice. The silver hair girl approached the brunette haired boy who seemed to be in a mad mood and complimented him on his duel before she introduced herself. This was a chance for her also to make her brother pay for what he did to her earlier. Since she had studied martial arts she knew that Shinrei would do as she said when she had something she could hold against him. "Now, now... I think you did just fine. Isn't that right, Shinrei?" She turned her eyes toward Shinrei and gave him a fierce scary look though he didn't seem to want to answer though a simple, "Yeah, what ever." Came out of his mouth which caused his sister to frown upon him. Though it was certainly a better choice of words than his 'what does him losing have to do with me' kind of response that he would probably get if he tried to ask him about he dueled before she turned back to face the boy.
"My name is Tsukiko Ikushirou. I am also a first year and have been assigned to the Earth Dorm. Due to my brother's status our dorms are already assigned to us. Looking forward to getting along with you. You're probably familiar with mean and nasty here." She paused for a moment pointing at her cold mannered brother then noticed that Shinrei didn't particularly like the insult she just fired at him. He remained quiet and didn't openly oppose but his eyes showed a sign that he didn't take it very well. "Could I ask what your name is? I noticed you lost, but I do not think you did too badly. Then again, I am just starting dueling myself so I hope we can learn much from each other."
