Welcome to Gaia! ::

A janitor? Well now, that was finally something she hadn't seen before. A pleasant surprise, but nothing more. She knew that as soon as everything got running, it would all be the same...

Not wasting any more time, she walked over to the odd looking centaur and stood in front of him. "I would like to be assigned my room please. Riyo R. Third year student." She informed him of only what she knew he needed and patiently waited for his answer, red eyes gazing up to his.

Hearing a familiar voice, Blade froze in place as it belonged to someone he really didn't want to hear or see. Slowly, he turned around to see Suto standing there, reprimanding him. Frowning somewhat, he shook his head to himself.

"I think you might be a little nit-picky about some of the points you've marked me down for," he said a little flatly, not answering the bit on sneaking around. Regardless what this teacher wanted, he was determined to get into the restricted areas and see what went on around them.

Branka was about, watching for any trouble, more or less. This might not be her post, but she was not going to stand for chaos.

Ahh, school....it was both boring as hell and the most amusing thing on the planet, depending on were you were at the time. At the moment though it was a bit in between. Though the headmaster was making it quite interesting.

A girl about the age of 17 Blinked, and wondered if she should laugh or just look at him odly. He was a great headmaster, but he could be quite weird at times. Oh well, it didn't matter. The speech was done, so now was the time to muck around while she could. A quick glance around and she could see a few familiar faces, but now she wanted to find out where her friends were. "Hey! Varn over here!" She spotted him a few meters away.

"Yo poke, what the hell was Harkim trying to say?" he laughed and waited for poke to make her way over. "Got any idea where Ken and Lina are?"

"Not a clue, but I think I see some other people we know...Oh god don't look now..." Poke indicated to where blade and suto were

Varn's face blanched at the sight of the guy "s**t, the poor guy. I wonder what he's being busted for..."

"...God I want to punch that guy" she hissed, fists clenching

"Same here, but remember what happened last time when you tries to pick a fight with a teacher."

Poke frowned at the memory. While she didn't get into a heap of trouble, it did look poorly on her mother. So she had to be extra careful.


At the end of the hall where the teachers where currently located, Two of them seemed to be busy in discussing the curriculum to new parents and students. Zoe was busy explaining how she would teach children how to defend themselves properly, while Marvin was assuring people he would take the best care of students while they were in the water.

Blade's eyes just narrowed as Suto continued to speak, and he was rather glad when the guy went off. Looking around now that he was free again, he let out a small sigh as he saw several students hug their parents or whatever goodbye. He still had to wonder what his own would have felt during a moment like this.

Shaking his head to rid the thoughts, he wandered on to figure out what room he'd be sleeping in this year.

"Yeah, but didja get your rooming info yet? Might wanna get that..." pointed out Bent-tail. His only response was a sigh emmiting from Shun, as well as some inaudible grumbling. He had a point there.

Shun pushed himself away from the wall, wincing momentarily as he did so. This caught the rat's attention, but he didn't ask about it just yet. Shoving his fists into his pockets, he went on to enter the main hall with a slight limp, grimacing as he saw all the people inside. His uniform was more on the minimum side as he hated the thing in general. Aside from that, he had a leather wristband around his right wrist, and a few rings on several fingers.

It wasn't hard to spy Marty from across the room, so he went on to try and get this over with.

Poke and Varn lingered a bit until they saw suto disappear from sight. They sighed a breath of relief before they continued to look for their friends.

"Morning guys" Came a pair of voices from behind, and they turned to see Ken and Lina had arrived, both carrying a set of textbooks and other utensils. "how did your vacations go?" Lina asked.

At this question, poke just grinned, crossed her arms and tried to look cool. "I came second place in the competition!"

"wow, congrats n that one. What about you, Varn?"

"Heh heh heh...First place. I took poke down in the final" He nodded, and glanced at his friend while she merely shrugged. She wasn't about to hold a grudge on this. She'll just beat him next time.

"Well then, have you gotten your time tables and room locations for this year?" Ken asked.

"Umm...No, not yet" Varn scratched the back of his head. He had complety forgotten. "you?" he looked at poke, who just hsook her head

"Oh well, we'll just get them now, The teacher's just over there" he pointed to marty, and started walking towards him leaving the others to follow.

Marty had watched the girl he had just dumped punch on leave, a worried expression on his face. He really hadn't meant to do that and he felt horrible for it. But in his distracted state he barely noticed the swarm of students as they came to get their room information and class schedules. "Ah, oh dear!" Eyes settling on the first student he started to look through his bag. "I've got your paperwork right here, Mr. Blade Faryn." Pulling the papers from his bag he handed them to the boy. "I look forward to seeing you in class."

He smiled as he turned to Shun as the boy approached. "Let me see, Shun....Shun.." He flipped through the papers again until he fell under the K names. "Ah, Shun Kuroda." His smile never wavered as he handed the boy his papers. Marty was pretty easy going, he had no qualms with any of the students.

His attention then fell to Varn and the group of friends following him. So many people at once! Fairly certain he remembered everyone's last name correctly he started to shuffle through his papers. At least now he seemed to be on task instead of floating about in his own little world. "Let's see, Varn, Ken, Lina, and Poke." He smiled as he handed them all their papers in turn.

Stopping in front of her brother, Mitsu clung to her papers, her face the picture of deflated hope. "I uh....I guess I'm going to go to my room. Put my things away." She forced her voice to sound at least a little more enthusiastic than she felt. Her main hope at the moment was that her brother wouldn't notice the punch dripping through her hair, despite how impossible that was. Even though he couldn't see he noticed everything. Reaching out she took her bag from his arm, stuffing her papers in one of the pockets. She had the room number memorized and had studied the map well enough to know where she was going.

Suto was glad to exit and be free of these little spawns at least until the following day. He had things to finish up and a lesson plan to throw together before tomorrow. With haste he made his way to the door and nearly ran into Mr. Ferre on his way in. That devilish grin tugged at his lips again, showing that his teeth were much sharper than they should be for a human. "Fresh meat, indeed, Mr. Ferre." Pushing his glasses back up on his face, Suto made an attempt to hide the smile that only crept up his face further. Something about this teacher always brought out the....best in him.

Was he being compared to Jack the Ripper? No matter, Suto supposed that wasn't far from the truth. "There seems to be a number of promising new students. However, the new transfers have my eye." Suto confirmed softly. When something seemed to catch Lou's attention, Suto followed his gaze to the meek blonde who had just entered. Rolling his eyes slightly at the comment, Suto continued toward the door. "Try not to enjoy yourself too much?" Despite his words he smiled, the smile finally taking over his face. With that he left to go back to his lab and continue his work.

Ginji had noticed Mitsu's absence, though he didn't move from where he stood in search of her. When she returned, the crinkling of paper confirmed what she had been doing. He released her bag, smiling softly. "Alright, Mitsu." He'd reached out to ruffle her hair again, but his hand paused in midair. After just a moment, he took a few strands between his fingers and pulled gently, with them bringing some of the remains of Marty's punch. "What happened here?" His smile didn't fade, he'd overheard a commotion from the centaur a little while ago. Apparently, Mitsu was the one he had been apologizing to so profusely.

Deacon hadn't moved from the front of the auditorium. If any of the parents wanted to talk to him, they'd have to get his attention. Mingling with the families wasn't something he much cared about, let alone the little unwanted tidbits of information when he gave the answer of what course he specialized in. That, and it was always too goddamn noisy in here. Everyone meeting up with old friends from the previous year, typically shouting to one another from halfway across the ******** room.

Hitsu was arriving late, in result making Yuki late as well. He was carrying her bag, though he handed it over to her as soon as they got into the auditorium. He wouldn't seek out any parents to speak with, and typically he could get away with standing off away from the madness. Hitsu, on the other hand, slung her bag over her shoulder and walked straight into the crowd with a grin.

Meanwhile, Caleb was trying to make sure the restrooms were still plenty clean. He was always freaked out when the parents were here, trying to make sure the school was spotless so that there wouldn't be any reason for someone to frown upon the establishment.
