She didn't mind the introduction at all...as a matter of fact, she was rather delighted that he had told the other girl his name. It saved her from having to drag her notebook out again.
She offered a sheepish sort of smile to 'Hal' before turning to Yuki with a nod. Her brother seemed to know *something* about martial arts. She had watched him practice before... Maybe she could suprise him by knowing something too.

((Did the name thing mostly so that when Halley the kinder gets introduced into RP, if he does, there won't be so much confusion. I actually really like the name Halley. Like the comet! ^_^))
Hal looked at Ash with curiosity. "You sure are quiet. Are you like Alida? With no voice, I mean. That's odd... having two people who can't talk in the same class? It's cool, I'm not saying anything bad, it's just not something that happens often, right?" She verbally backpeddled furiously, aware that she might have unintentionally offended the girl. She had to learn to think before she spoke...
During that whole event Ritsu had been waiting by the water fountain, but he kept giving up his spot to someone else, in a misguided idea that surely they were more important, and should drink first. He had noticed Alida drag Yuki off around the corner, and though he condemned himself for doing so, he peeked around the corner to see what was going on.
What he saw made him freeze, his thoughts running in tiny circles in his head, immobilizing him. When the danger had passed, he felt ashamed, but really, what could he have done? I'm not good with martial arts like Yuki and Kyou, or even that other girl that was there. Alida doesn't like fighting either, but even she did something useful... She didn't just stand there. I'm so useless!
He allowed himself to be ushered back into the gym, and sat down on a bench near the wall, hugging himself and hiding his face behind a fall of hair. He had learned to keep his self-recriminations to himself, he only got in trouble if he voiced them. But for some reason, he always felt better, letting the world know how sorry he was for not being good enough. At least then they would know, instead of fooling themselves...
He sighed, and looked up through his hair to see the Yuki, Ash, and Halley in the middle of the gym, with Sylas and Alida off to one side. The other kids were just milling about, some of them had taken to playing impromptu tag, the bully among them. He was tagging harder than necessary, pushing some kids to the ground, but because the teacher was in her office making the call to the Principal, she wasn't there to stop it.
((Where is Raving, btw? I miss Kyou...))

((i think she got a new SN, i invited that one to the guild o__o ))
Yuki blinked at her straightforewardness "Uhm, yea she is. I guess.." he hadn't really met alida, "I guess it is alittle.. uncommon." yuki smiled a bit, hoping if Ash had been offended he wouldn't say anythgin to make it worse.
"uhn..I guess we should start with concentration." He frowned.. he wasn't all too good at talking alot, he was more of the quiet-Ionlytalkwhenineedtoo kinda guy.. he took off the cap, setting it aside and brushign down the grey-almost white hair that had gotten hat-head while under the cap.
"Concentration is one of the most important things.. You can have all the streangth in the world, but if you can't control it.. its worthless." taking a stance he demonstraited, before anyone could blink his foot was a few inches from the side of hal's head. It was a simple show of speed and control, probably more to show off than to teach. He smirked a bit, slowly moving his leg back to its normal position and giving a soft bow to Hal.
"As we're supposed to start out.. everyone bow to the person next to you." he blinked feeling a bit wierd, that was what you were supposed to do.. but still. What if they thought he was strange and didn't like him anymore?

She just smiled up to 'Hal' as Yuki did the explaining for her once more, giving a little nod of her head as if to say 'yes...he's got it right.'
For some reason, she was half tempted to take his hat and hold if for him as he moved on to the next part of his demonstration but that thought was quickly dashed from her head. Eyes went wide as his foot came up beside 'Hal's head and then, she applauded as he brought it down.
Quickly though, she set everything that may have hindered her aside, arms to her sides as she bowed to 'Hal' and then to Yuki. She'd seen her brother do that before...

Ritsu, on the other side of the room, watched this little display with interest, almost forgetting his shame as he watched. He wished he had the courage to go over there and join in, but he figured they wouldn't want him anyway, since he hadn't been any help.
Hal blinked as she suddenly had a foot only a few inches from her head, and looked at Yuki in astonishment. She hadn't even seen him move! Her dad wasn't even that fast! 'Course, he's also a lot bigger... Even in her mind, she had to defend her dad from any possible tarnishing of his shiney image.
When he told them to line up and bow, she frowned a bit, not quite sure what was going on, but she had watched the old kung fu movies, and she knew that was what they did. She lined up and bowed to Ash, and then turned and bowed to Yuki, because he was the instructor.

Aqua pokes her head inside the front doors, looking around before entering. Wow, it's so big! She muses as she walks down the hallway, looking for any other kids.

The boy tried to remember back to his classes.. he had mastered it all pretty fast, and hardly remembered what went in what order.. He started with some streaches, and other basic warmups. Like balancing on one leg.
He was kinda happy with the way this was going.. Hal had excelent stamina and strength, Ash had good balance and speed. He glanced at ritsu pausing for a moment then waving the boy over. Minas well try to teach him too.. he wondered if he acctually could though.

Ritsu froze as soon as he was noticed, and ducked his head down, blushing furiously. He hadn't meant to be caught watching... But, he didn't want to be left out, so he obediently made his way to where the other three were standing, and bowed, hands clutched in front of him.
"Uhm, uh, hello... My name is Ritsu... It's a pleasure to meet you." The whole time he had focused his gaze on the two girls feet, afraid to meet their eyes, sure he would find censure for his failure to help, even though he had seen what was happening. Nevermind that no one had seen him watching.
Hal gave him a strange look, and raised an eyebrow, then shrugged. He can't be any worse than Andrew... She grinned at him, even though he wasn't looking, because her dad always said people would hear what your expression was in your voice. She said, "Hi, Ritsu, my name is Hal. Did you want to learn, too? Yuki's really cool!" She fisted her hand and placed her other hand on the bicep to emphasize her point.
Ritsu was barely audible as he whispered, "Y-yes... please... if it's not a bother..." He bit his lip, and stared now at his own feet.

((somethings going to happen to yuki =0 ))
Yuki smiled reasuringly to the boy.. "And this is Ash.." he introduced her, yuki blinked blushing some when he was reffered to as cool.. still a small voice echoed in the back of his head..
'If normal people were to find out.. they'd be disqusted.'
He shook the though, trying to focus on what was infront of him.. they'd just never find out. "Your not a bother Ritsu... and Ritsu is my cousin." Yuki gave a small cough flinching a bit as he did so and tried to continue his teaching.
"I think we're ready for some punches and kicks.. Or if someone would like to go over what I allready showed with Ritsu..Your choice."

Halley blinked, and looked back and forth between them. "Really? You don't really look alike... But that's okay. Cousins don't have to, right?" And she nodded firmly.
Ritsu swallowed, and forced himself to look up, though he still didn't quite meet Yuki's eyes, and said, still very quietly, "I-I was watching, Yuki-san... You don't have to do it again... not for me..." He stood over by Ash and Hal, and demonstrated that he could bow, and did a few of the stretches, though he blushed furiously from being watched.
((Uh-oh... stress on Yuki?))

Sylas looked up at Alida and reacting on impulse and ignoreing his more shy nature at the moment, he wrapped his arms around her and cried on her shoulder. He needed to feel someone with him right now. He had been so scared and who knew where he would have been if no one had come to help him. He didn't know what the man wanted and where they had planned to take him, only that he was safe now. "Th-thank you, thank you Alida." Swallowing and going a bit red in the cheeks, he leaned up and kissed her lightly on the cheek. "Thank you for being there when I needed you. I shouldn't have ever hid."
Hiding seemed to only make things worse, but sometimes he felt that he needed to hide away. He was so scared of having so many people around that didn't understand him. He didn't like that he didn't know any of them, and that he had trouble speaking to them. It never crossed his mind until now, that sometimes you need others with you to be safe, and perhaps, somepeople would trade his studder in just to be able to talk at all. He had been being greedy. All of this hit him at once, causing him to bow his head over his knees. "Im also sorry.. If I had done what I was told to do and came to class like I was supposed to, none of this would have happened at all.

Alida was stunned. The only people that ever kissed her were her family... and not even all of them. One hand rose up to touch her cheek, a blush coloring her cheeks pink. She hugged him feircely, but his continued apologies made her pull away slightly to shake her head at him. It's not all your fault, Sylas... She wished she had her notebook...
She felt a little bit of guilt herself. She should have been watching out for him. She had a idea of how shy he was, and she'd left him alone in the class, not noticing he was missing until halfway through gym. She knew he wouldn't agree with her, but being the big sister of her family made her feel responsible for those around her. She sighed, and leaned her head against his slightly taller shoulder as she continued to hug him lightly, rocking a bit like Rime used to do for her when she was scared. She was just glad he hadn't been taken.
She hoped the teacher would make sure someone caught the bad man. I have to tell her what he looks like, I don't think she saw him very well... But not without Sylas. I'm not letting him leave my sight! She sat back and looked at him, before tilting her head questioningly and pointing towards the teacher's office. I hope he doesn't misunderstand...

Sylas blushed as the girl hugged him tighter, his thin arms wrapping around Alida. He closed his eyes a moment just letting the safe feeling wash over him for the time. It just felt so nice to have someone else to hold. His little brothers were the only ones that let him have contact with them. Even then he didn't really feel all that good about being around most people. Alida gave him a warm feeling though.
The blush deepened and he looked at the girl, nodding and getting up, looking around wondering where the teacher went. "I don't know what we should do though, I was too scared to notice much more than that he was dragging me off.. then he picked me up. He was big.. the ground was far below me." He was speaking not just to her but really just to get the words out. He didn't really hear what she was saying. That wasn't possible. "I wish we could talk.. I'm so shakey..." His eyes were filling with nervous tears again.
