Benjamin shrugged. "Figured you'd take more kindly to that than me shaking you awake," he said. "Come on, it's dinner time." He started back the way he'd come, headed for the dining hall. Sure Icarus may not want friends or allies, but Benjamin couldn't have a fresh start at this school, which was why he wanted to stick around the girl.

Icarus grumbled some and ruffled her hair a little before getting up and following Benjamin to the dining hall. She was a little hungry... Maybe some food would settle her stomach and her mood. Soon she was at the boy's side as they reached the cafeteria. "So what's for dinner?"

Benjamin stopped outside the door, noticing a menu that was posted that he hadn't noticed before. It read that the meal was some sort of past, a passed down recipe, and he gestured to the sign, before heading inside to go get food.

Icarus looked to the sign and read it before following Benjamin into the hall. She then wondered if anyone was going to give them problems today. Maybe punching some idiots would make her feel better.

Benjamin managed to make it to the food line with no problems, and he chanced a glance over his shoulder to see what was going on. There was a lot of snickering going on, and he shrugged, getting his food to go. He'd rather eat outside of this cliquish room.

Icarus got her food and went over to a window and sat down. She liked looking out windows and watching the sky. It made it easier to ignore people. She started to eat, ignoring all the looks and snickers as she went back to thinking about her upcoming letter. Her first letter.

Benjamin considered sitting with Icarus, but he had a feeling the little bird wouldn't take kindly to it, so he took his food and left the dining hall. As soon as he did, a group of cheerleader type girls started whispering. "I hear that he got kicked out his last school because he slept with the principal's daughter," one of them said, and they laughed. "God, that accent, though! If he didn't probably have a whole lot of diseases, he'd be so popular." "Why do you think he hangs out with that punky girl! She's probably the only person here as shady as he is!"

Icarus had finished her noodles when overhearing the girls. Well they talked so loud. So she decided to teach them a lesson. One of the girls suddenly found the pair of chopsticks sunk into the wall, mere centimeters from her make-up covered face. Icarus had thrown them from across the room. She then approached the girls, lighting a cigarette and blowing the smoke at them. "I hate inaccuracy. Let's get a few things straight, shall we? I am the only shady one here. No one's soul is as black as mine. Spain is a saint compared to just you. So I'd suggest not badmouthing a saint unafraid to incite violence. Of course I'm not afraid to stat a fight either. So if you want, please keep talking. I'll be sure to bust every one of those precious perfect teeth out of your jaws before I force you to eat them, k?" she said, telling the girls off before taking the cigarette out of her mouth. She then tapped it, knocking ash into one of their drinks before starting to leave.

One of the girls gasped, and a nearby table of jocks stood. As Icarus turned to leave, they surrounded her, crossing their arms. "New girl. You don't diss anyone like that until you've earned some status around here. And right now, your status is bug that needs to be squashed." One of the cracked his knuckles and another flexed his muscles intimidatingly. "You don't have that Mexcian to save you now, girly." [OOC:] Am I succeeding in making them evil and cliche?

[OOC:] Loving every minute. 3nodding
Icarus glanced at them and sighed. "Sadly for you people, Spain protected you from me." she said, shedding her jacket. It dropped to the floor with a thud that the vibrations were felt on the other side of the dining hall, and some pots in the kitchen rattled. It was revealed to be lined with weights. The the girl charged one of the jocks and, in a flurry of strikes, brought him down, having paralyzed him. "Pressure points are funny things. Now who wants to go next against the Demon of Nimbasa City?" she asked, looking to the other boys, grinning a very concerning grin.

[OOC:] Why thank you. The jocks raised their hands and backed off, leaving the girl to herself. The girls got up and left in a huff, their boyfriends not far behind them. Benjamin, who was eating not too far away in the currently deserted student lounge watched as a series of very unhappy jocks and girlies passed by. He shrugged and kept eating, not really caring.

Icarus chuckled as they fled. "Wise choice." she muttered before leaving and heading out onto a balcony to take in the setting sun and the nice breeze. And again her thoughts drifted off to birds, letters, and the dragons in her Vespa.

After he was done eating, Benjamin went back to his room to continue looking over his book. He'd figured out that his new book would tell him where most of the artifacts came from. So, now he was going to try and figure out the story behind those little dragons. He still couldn't believe they were dragons. After all, dragons weren't real, right? But there were a couple of them waiting in a Vespa sidecar downstairs. Then, he stumbled across something interesting. Something called blood magic had been passed down and was evidently strongest in someone named Desdomyra. But, as the entry continued, it started calling her Myra. Making Benjamin remember the professor mentioning her, and also that Myra sounded awfully familiar. Then he found it, mention of the exact dragons with little sketches! He grabbed the book, and headed out to try and find Icarus.

Icarus was back at her Vespa, tying knots in some rope. She was making some toys for their new pets so they weren't so bored. And besides, maybe dragons wanted some interaction by play. She also had a few tennis balls, wondering if she should wake the sleeping reptiles.

When Benjamin reached the garage, he raised the book over his head triumphantly. "I found the criaturas, pájaro! They're right here!" He walked over to her Vespa, showing her the page with the drawings. "Supposedly, one of the princesses from around here, Myra, made them. The black one was a present for the guy she later married, Diablo, and the white one was to keep it company.
