Welcome to Gaia! ::

"Yes, it is." Hasuko said politely. "I'm still trying to find my way around but I think I'm slowly getting used to things." Sort of. But Hasuko wasn't about to tell her friend about accidentally walking into the wrong classroom. Or all the various times she'd managed to get lost that day.

"And yes, still interested in botany." She dug through her backpack, pulling out some paper and a pen with which to take notes with. "I hope I do okay in this class." she said, fidgeting absently with her pen. "I'm a little nervous." she admitted.

The classroom aside from the students idle chatter the room was eerily silent. The Green house off to the side of the classroom was still as well. Not a single plant appeared to be moving at all.

Mandy hoped she was not too late to Botany class; this was becoming a terrible habit of hers, especially since she actually was really looking forward to this class. Most would not think it but Mandy had a secret love for plants, maybe it was from growing up in a forest or from how quiet and simple most of them where but if given the chance she would happily get her hands dirty looking after them, though she wasn't certain how much of that would be involved in the class.

Entering the room her eyes quickly snapped to the board, giving it a dubious look at the striked out instructions, survive? Where all classes here going to be battles? She'd expected it in Gym but well...

At least they'd be prepared by the time they graduated.

Board dismissed from her mind for now she looked around the room, not spotting anyone that screamed 'teacher' or many people she knew. She only knew Doc vaguely from both excursions and some of the other ghouls looked sort of familiar. Oh wait- there was Calder, so one boil she knew in passing as well.

Still, no one she knew well.

Mandy was contemplating where to sit when she first heard it. At first she just dismissed with a flick of her ears as comming from someone passing by outside the door but as she continued she realized it was too constant for that and with a tilt of her head she pinpointed it was comming from the greenhouse.

What...?

Frowning slightly she moved towards the door to investigate, having nothing better to do until the teacher turned up.

A light cracking sound could be heard shortly before a vine whipped out securing hold of Mandy's ankle.

A light cry escaped the green house, a shrill high pitched cry that shook the glass panes.

.

"What?!" Hasuko yelped. "It has a name??"

She stared in wide-eyed alarm at greenhouse; tense and ready to go running should another vine whip its way out to try and grab her. "What was that thing?!" She looked around at her follow students. Oddly, Loreto didn't seem too alarmed. "Um. S-shouldn't we try to rescue that student?" she asked in a squeaking voice.

Tess sharply turned towards the sounds, crimson eyes wide in shock. Well, no, not shock exactly. Having spent enough time in the school, Tess should have been accustomed to danger as long as one was in class. It seemed every time she was within the vicinity of any faculty something was going to happen to them. However, there was a flaw with that thinking. Their teacher was no where in sight.

"W-what just happened?" She blinked to the other students, her wings flapping in agitation. What was going on in that greenhouse?
