Welcome to Gaia! ::

He stepped off the bus and gazed upward to the top of the gate in wonder, when he realized he needed to his accpetance letter to give to the woman standing in the courtyard, so he began digging through his bag looking for it...."where did i put it?"..He said to himself scrounging through the mess in his bag when he saw the envelope and pulled it out.."I knew it was here"...He nervously walked through gates behind the person in front of him as htey gave her their letter.

When he came up to her he nervously handed her the letter, hands shking slightly,"he-here you go ma'am."

Oni's eyes scanned the walls of her home for the next couple years. It was large and the first thing that came to her mind was: Castle. It looked like something from out of the story books she used to read as a child. That's when another thought smacked her upside the head. Library. A school this big must have a really big library. And the technology she could hack into and rechieve information from. A large grin spread across her ruby red lips that stood out amongst her icy pale skin.

Looks like I'm going to have alot of fun here.. I just gotta make sure not to get myself kicked out.

As a child Oni had grown up on the streets for a while. The nickname Fujin Oni (Female Demon) came when her other personality slaughtered a good many of people. From then on the called her as such. A heatless red-eyed demon. Oni figured she must have had a name before then but no one knew it not even herself. Ah well.. Oni-chan worked as a name as good as any other she supposed. It seemed to fit her quite well. Even when she lived in the Orphanage growing up she was playfully called the "Little Oni" because she loved playing tricks.

"Welcome to Ria High School please show me your acceptance letter so I may give you your student ID."

"Huh?"

The teenager glanced up at her greeter, snapping back out of memory lane. Right, the acceptance letter. Opening one of her bags she began scrambling through the items until she found the crinkled up piece of paper. Not seeming to care that it was tattered she held it out to her greetter. The young woman shuffled through the large deck of cards in her hand till she came to Oni's. Oni stood still and observed it for a little while before neatly placing it in her baggy jean pockets. She'd deal with her dorm room now. It was time for her to go exploring...

"This should take me all night.."

Fayth slowly got off the bus. She looked up at the tall building straight in front of her. It brought her into a sort of reverie reminding her of her parents estate. Minutes seemed to go by.... Out of nowhere she was suddenly shook out of her thoughts by an android.

"Hello and welcome to Ria High! May I see your acceptance letter?" said the strangely peppy robot. "Of course here you are." said Fayth as she slowly stared at her.

" Annnnd here you are...... uhh... Miss Valkeese! By the way my name is Lilith! And also here is your student ID."

With all Fayth needed she rushed as fast as she could away from Lilith and gazed at her school map. "I guess I'll head to my Dorm and get unpacked..." And so she headed off.

Angellea kept her fingers laced in the gate bars. Nervous no longer covered what she was truly feeling staring at the building. Her body had begun to involuntarily tremble and she gripped the bars tighter to keep the world from spinning. Her blue eyes went from the school in front of her to look at her gloved hand. Musn`t have any unwanted images floating around in her mind, Good or Bad. As she leaned more into the gate she felt it give, swinging forward and puting her right inside the gate. It took a little time for her to reach a point she could call "calm" before she let go of the now open gate. She turned her head and watched smiling faces as the handed in their acceptance letters. At least it was nice to know that not everyone was as nervous as she was. Angellea looked through the open gate when she sensed a prescence behind her and heard a light and cheery voice say, "Hello and welcome to Ria High! May I see your acceptance letter?" Angellea`s heart went into her throat. Scared? Who? Her? She stood there, slightly panicked as she turned around to face a robot. She gulped, unable to think before she heard, "Hello and welcome to Ria High! May I see your acceptance letter?" again.

It took her some time to register what had just been said, before she hurriedly began to fumble in her bag for it. "Oh! I know I have it here somewhere!" she said to the patient robot ,who waited while Angellea turned her bag upside down and let everything fall out before she grabbed the folder which held the letter. "Oh! Here it is!" she said with a nervous smile. She watched as the robot took the letter and scurried away. All the things from her bag were scattered on the ground in front of her, and she knelt pushing it all back into the bag. "The hard part is over," she told herself. Question was, was that really the hard part? Perhaps she was just overreacting.

Niam walked through the gates slowly, concentrating, and his hair slowly began to turn from black to blue. He almost bumped into an android labled "Lilith" and walked right past. by this time his hair was a bright sky blue, (the color he had wanted it to be) and he noticed that someone was taping his shoulder. He turned around, and saw Lilith, who said "Acceptance letter please." Niam quickly pulled his acceptance letter out of a pocket, and handed it to Lilith. Then he walked strait through the school doors, his eyes turning a deep blue. he thought as he walked "Androids and Magic in the same school, interesting."

Yuki paused in front of the gates, staring through silently as her pale hand grasped the bars. She looked in at all the scenery and the few people within immediate sight. "What do you think it's like?" she asked softly.

Hiro frowned, both hands behind his head as he shifted impatiently on his feet. "Why don't we go in and see?" he urged, watching her through the black hair that blew in his face.

Yuki glanced at him with her perpetually sad eyes and frowned slightly. "Alright..." she said faintly and then pushed open the gates. They creaked very slightly on their hinges, but that was enough for her. "Ah, I've changed my mind. Lets go home."

Hiro laughed and grabbed her shoulders as she tried to pass him. "Nope! See, this is why I came with you. No chickening out!" Then he spun her around so she was facing the school once more and marched her forward and past the gates. They came to a female droid and he paused as she spoke, "Welcome to Ria High School. Please show me your acceptance letter so I may give you your student ID." Hiro nodded and dug in his pocket, smirking at Yuki's panciked stare. "Don't worry, I've got them," he said as he pulled two papers from his pocket and handed them to the female.

She scanned them briefly and then extended her hand in return. "Enjoy your stay."

"Thanks," Hiro nodded as he accepted the cards and placed on in Yuki's hand, leading her slowly away from the droid. "Alright, we're in."

Yuki frowned, crossing her arms over her chest as she stared around herself. She had to admit, it didn't seem that bad so far... She sighed, closing her eyes, and then looking back towards Hiro. "Thanks for coming," she murmured.

Hiro grinned and ruffled her hair. "No problem! I know you can't function without me."

Yuki's face flushed red as she scowled and pushed his hand away. "Well, lets go explore!" she said as she swept through the grounds to further enter. Hiro shook his head in amusement as he followed, glancing around curiously.
