It was a little while after Hayato passed him that the elder male finally moved from where he stood. Mainly because all the students coming in were so pathetic he couldn't bare to watch them. They were the true newcomers, having little to no clue as to what they were doing. Sure some found it amusing to see them fumble about and fail to even perform one single attack correctly. But to him at least, it just wasn't worth witnessing. Once they'd gained experience and learnt something over the next few weeks then yes, it was all well and good. But before that it just wasn't within the elder's interest to bother with something so boring. And so for the rest of the day, the elder wandered like he did most days. Watching as others sorted themselves out, meeting others and getting used to life here. For today at least, the lithe male far preferred spending it alone before the chaos of assignments started up. No doubt there would be arguments, there always were, no matter if you were best friends with another or not. This was an academy after all, competition was natural.

One of these days someone was going to get a bullet going straight through their body thanks to him....
It was safe to say from anyone that had seen the elder male in the very early hours of the morning, that he hated this time of day. Anyone who tried waking him up too early usually got a harsh glare or on a particularly bad morning; a kick to the gut. Ouch. Still the first day of actual classes wasn't so bad, no one disturbed him. So the lithe male woke up at a decent time. See? That was the one bad thing about being a student here, early class times. And oh kami did he hate them. Groaning as the tall male peeled himself from his bed, silver hair messy from the long night's sleeping. Obviously not one to stay very still while he slept, unless of course, he had someone nearby. It was odd like that, but that might have been due to his upbringing. Oh well. No use worrying over such a trivial matter now was there? Nah.
Showering and dressing fast, it wasn't long before the male had headed down to breakfast. Although he could eat like any man, like a complete and utter pig if he wanted to. Most of the time here he didn't, plus not to mention it was a little weird to be doing unless you were among friends and considering his therefore lack of. That was a near impossible feat to achieve at this very moment in his lifetime. After half an hour and a decently sized breakfast now within his system, it wasn't long before classes were due to begin. Ugh. How dull. That was another problem, although not with the Academy itself. Things were a real bore when you knew pretty much everything you needed to graduate already, and tests were no fun when you could answer everything as easily as you could blink. Still, at the very least Shin over the past few years had _tried_ to look somewhat interested. Not that it worked for very long. At least the classes after lunch were decently entertaining, and any theory class he had was always an amusing chance to grill the teacher on how much they knew, and if he just might learn something he hadn't considered when facing an opponent before.
Sadly today that hadn't happened at all. So dull. Still within the physical education class he did get a few laughs from it, as well as a few stares. One of his teachers asking him if he danced, considering how well he moved and how graceful he seemed to be. Despite being both male and very tall. He, of course, denied this. The lithe junior wasn't one for that sort of thing (oh yes he is, just in secret so no one knows) and even if he had been. He certainly wasn't going to blurt it out. Unlike some of the overly happy or hyperactive kids here, that just wasn't the type of person he was. Even so as the last class of the day for him came to an end with a resounding sigh of relief, the elder quickly making his way back to his dorm to grab his weapon before heading back down to the main entrance. Somewhere in the back of his mind, he really wished he hadn't come down here so soon...

Yes. He knew many of the newer students would be down here. Looking to take on their very first mission, but that didn't mean others weren't up for grabs either now did it? Still, he'd managed to take note of a few C-rank missions that he could do at a later date before all the chaos seemed to start. Now not being one to look like a total idiot in front of others, the elder had simply gone to get a drink before looking over a few D-rank missions and accepting one and then....well.... all of _this_ happened. Not only were there far more people here then he'd imagined for the first proper day here, but they were people here that he'd seen yesterday. In fact most of them were, minus a few newer faces that Shin hadn't seen before. Still it hadn't been long and he had practically predicted it, then again it happened every single year so this was no different. That's right, a fight broke out. Did these new kids have no common sense or what? Or where they trying to get kicked out on their second day on Academy grounds? Honestly, it was so very childish.
Then again, he wasn't considered the 'perfect' student himself. Far from it. He was a troublemaker at heart who also happened to be highly intelligent, a bad combination if you pissed him off. Which luckily never happened. The tall male had never lost his temper in the time that he'd been here, strange yes, but he'd been irritated or annoyed many times. But it had never been enough to make him loose what decency he had and go off on one. No. That was reserved for the morons who either did something so stupid, or were stupid enough to try and bring those closest to him as threats to get him to do something. Safe to say, it was well advised by even the teachers to other student to avoid this silver haired trickster when he was irritated. It wasn't a nice thing to be on the receiving end of. Eventually he had spotted a fight starting, it was merely verbal at first and that was perfectly fine. Let them argue as much as they pleased, it wasn't anyone's problem except those two. Yet again, fate loved to mess with his day. As the fight quickly turned violent, with a crowd gathering around to watch. Kami, were they stupid? Clearly so considering they were just letting it continue. Especially if certain teachers found out, they'd all be screwed and not just the two that were fighting either.
"Baka, ryouhou tomo." *(Idiots, both of them.)* He muttered in an semi-annoyed tone. A punch was thrown, the boy he had seen yesterday, Hayato, went flying comedy style. Others went to help and as he carefully moved towards the large group and the lone male on the ground, keeping an eye on the red-headed female as she really did look like she was about to deck someone into the ground again. Luckily for him, she didn't and instead going to insult the boy she had just hit. Sure it was okay to be confidant, but having an ego this big was just a no no. Not that he wanted to pick a fight, but he wasn't so much of a coward that he would hide in the background with everyone else here. Walking over although still remaining a decent distance away for the moment, those who knew him from previous years quickly parted like the red sea at his approach. It wasn't that he was overly high ranking, far from it, but it was someone who many people generally avoided. That habitual smile he held was slightly thinner than normal as he looked over at the young girl and those around Hayato.
While others talked and further glances were thrown about, the issue seemed to calm down on it's own, thankfully. Still, that kid did look like he could use a hand or at least someone who wasn't about to insult him every chance she got. Moving over and soon glancing down towards Hayato, he quirked an eyebrow curiously this kid sure had a habit of getting himself hurt and it was only the second day. "Ya alright down there?" The lithe male questioned, his tone now lighter than before. Perhaps more at ease because he knew he was talking to someone from his own culture. Maybe.
