"I see... You startled someone? You must be braver already!" Likely much to Mitsu's dismay, her brother laughed lightly at her desperate offer to go back home. "I'm sure I'll manage on my own." He, of course, would not mention how much he would not miss food that was either undercooked or overcooked. "Mitsu, I know you're going to make friends here. Just give it a little time." Ginji hoped that time around others her age, or just other people in general, would help her to come out of her shell.
Elsewhere, Caleb nearly jumped from his fur when Neko discovered him. Thankfully he hadn't been holding anything other than a cleaning cloth, or most likely there would have been more for him to clean up. "O-Oh! I've been here for..." The feline looked skyward, as though it would tell him the time. "Just a couple of hours, I think... Was I supposed to be somewhere else? I'm sorry if I was supposed to be somewhere else! I just didn't want anyone to think we didn't keep the public restrooms cleaned, that's a big deal everywhere. Gotta have clean restrooms. Sanitary restrooms." As Caleb jabbered on at the speed of a child on espresso, he continued to wipe clean the sink. You could probably eat off of any surface, and literally have no worries.

Nami casually pulled back and looked to Tessa, growing bored of these 'pleasantries'. While she knew Blade couldn't do anything, Blade probably knew full well that they really couldn't pull any tricks out of their hats either. "All in good time, Tessa. After all, we get to spend another lovely year with all our dear friends here... And new acquaintances, of course." She winked to her friend and looked back. "Perhaps we should get our schedules."
"No need to apologize Marty." Atticus assured the centaur as he usually did and gave him a pat on the shoulder. "Ah yes. Mr. Kuroda, one of my best customers." He wandered over to the boy and sighed. "Shall we go back to my office and serenade you with ointment and pain killers?" The doctor asked casually, trying not to make a big deal out of it. He knew the boy was one of the proud ones, so he did his best to keep it simple. They didn't pay him to be a counselor as well, after all.

If anything Mitsu looked a bit frustrated, and the little grumble she gave would let Ginji know. But to him managing on his own Mitsu gave a sigh. As far as making friends she was unsure. She never really let him know about the bullying she encountered at school....just that she would prefer to stay home. "Alright...I'll try." Stepping forward she gave her brother a hug not caring that she was sharing in her juice mess. "I will miss you."
Her smile returning, Tessa nodded while blowing a kiss in Blade's direction. "Until next time." Stepping up beside Nami she confirmed about receiving the schedules though she was not at all thrilled about approaching the ox of a man. If he was normal she might have thought him rather cute....but he was far from normal.
Well it seemed that Atticus had everything under control. Unfortunately he would not be able to accompany them to the infirmary. He still had a job to do here, but hopefully things would be winding down soon.
Neko, in total disbelief, just stared at Caleb. So he had been spending hours...meaning more than one...in this one bathroom. From the amount of shine on every surface there was no doubt. "You are such an idiot." Approaching the other custodian, Neko took hold of the collar of his uniform and started to pull him toward the door to leave. "People come here to take a s**t not eat off the toilet seat. I swear I don't know what goes through that brain of yours." Neko continued to complain as they left, heading back to the auditorium. If there was a fuss on Caleb's end he did not hear it.

So they were finally backing off now. Shaking his head to himself, he just turned away without another word and headed out into the hall. Now headed towards the dorms, his expression changed in a fairly subtle manner. The things they said were really nothing new, but they still had their sting.
Passing up a couple familiar faces, he didn't look to see who they were exactly. It hasn't been the most pleasant day so far, and it probably wasn't going to be getting much better any time soon as he'd have to deal with Shun later on.
"Excuse me," he mumbled as he went on pass a girl he hadn't seen around before, nearly walking into her. Most likely she was a new student.
((Up to you if its Kohaku or Riyo))
"Whatever," grumbled Shun, figuring he wouldn't hear the end of it until he gave in anyway. Glancing towards his friend, he added, "I'll see you later then, or whatever."
"Yeah... See ya Shun," nodded Bent-Tail before he went on off. He had his papers already, but he had forgotten to give them a look since he was more concerned about Shun at the time. So he went ahead to look them over now that he had a chance.

"Well...at least he didn't get punched up.." Varn mumbled along the hallway, casting a glance at blade as he walked off. "Those two aren't the only pains in the a** around here." While Tessa and Nami had a strong hold on the other students, there were others that were able to control people in a different sort of way.
"Ahh, dammit, I was starting to feel good about this year..." Sighing, Varn looked at his schedule again and started to dwell on where he was going to gain access to some textbooks. Ken was very protective of his, so he'd have to score some on his own.
"Don't worry about the school bullies, you know they're trying to make themselves feel better by picking on others.." While glancing around the hallway, he noticed a few people that he had not seen before. Perhaps these people were new to the school?
Meanwhile, poke was merely nodding to whomever was talking, more concerned about how much she hated Nami and her stupid and persistent teasing.

Nami left Blade to his business and trotted behind Tessa towards the freakish figure of a man. "Oh Marty~" She called, always enjoying the reactions she got from him even if he was semi-frightening. "Would you be so kind as to find our schedules?"
Once Riyo left the main building, she slowed down in pace towards the dorms. While she swore up and down that there was no difference between schools as far as the people attending, the scenery was always just a little bit different. Her last school definitely didn't have a pond, that's for sure.
The blonde had abruptly stopped to look into the large body of water, admiring the moon reflecting off the ripples that fish made. Moments like these are what made her reflect on life so far and try to play it off in one of those 'it could be worse' scenarios...
Though it was becoming harder and harder to identify worse situations...
"You're excused." She mumbled, the sound of a voice breaking her train of thought. Was a minute of peace from these ******** too much to ask for?
As Atticus and Shun reached his 'office', he motioned for the boy to have himself a seat anywhere he wanted and unlocked his medicine cabinet. With the hooligans they had sometimes, one could never be too careful. "Any cuts or gashes this time?" The doctor asked as he grabbed one of the pill bottles and examined it momentarily to confirm it was the right one.

Glancing back momentarily to get a better look at the new girl, he took note of the red eyes she had. Poor girl was likely going to be a target for the bitchy duo of doom. Pausing, he thought he'd try and make some attempt to make things more pleasant.
"Welcome to the school," he said quietly before heading on around the pond towards the boy's dormatory, "Hope the Hive won't get to you."
Taking a seat as he was motioned to, Shun frowned and waited for Atticus to get the medicine. He did not enjoy talking about his injuries as it signified weakness. It was less so around other students than just the nurse around, but he was reluctant nonetheless.
"No," he said plainly. The teen just wanted to get this over with so he could get out and deal with his room.

"Oh ah...M...Miss Nami Reede." It always caught him off guard when she called him by his first name, most of the other students called him by his last name even when he said it was okay to call him by his first. It was just the odd way it rolled off her tongue, but no matter. She seemed like a nice enough girl. "It's good to see you again this year. I suppose you need your papers? And Miss Tessa Lancaster, its good to see you as well."
Standing beside Nami, Tessa put on a fake warm smile as she began to play with her hair. "You know, she did say we needed our papers when we came over here." She chirped happily. Honestly, such dumb questions when the answer had already been given. It amazed her that this man beast was allowed to be a teacher, though she supposed you didn't need much brain power to be a track and field instructor.
What she said was a little on the rude side, but how she said it was off. Marty wasn't sure how to take it. "R...right. My apologies." He went about searching for their papers and finally found them after a moment or two. "Here you are."
Grasping the papers delicately between two fingers, Tessa plucked them from Marty's hand, smile always present. "Thank you Man-Marty"
Marty really didn't catch the slip so he smiled as always. "You are very welcome. I look forward to seeing you in class."
Klyde, having entered late to avoid being in a crowd of commoners for long, followed a particular scent until he reached the person he was looking for. "Well, hello my lovely lady." He said softly placing a hand on Nami's arm gently. His skin was so sickly pale due to what he was but his features more than made up for it. He had a face one could call rugged but he knew many a girl to call him beautiful. His structure was way above average and well defined with muscles. Inky black hair in a mess of gelled curls hung about his head, only a single strand falling to the front to rest on his forehead, superman style. It was obviously a planned move. "How is this year looking, my Queen." His voice was as warm as honey around Nami and Tessa but it was as cold as ice to anyone else.

"It seems that I've already gotten to them." Riyo commented quietly, glancing over her shoulder for only a moment before looking back to the water.
"Yes, thank you Marty." Nami spoke through her smile and looked down at her papers. "I like what you're doing with your hair, by the way." Momentarily looking back up, she winked at him. Her attention didn't stay on the clumsy oaf, however, as a hand graced her arm.
"It's looking very interesting, Dear Klyde." She turned to face him slowly, cold blue eyes looking into his. She didn't linger, however, since most of it shouldn't be said in front of horse guy. As she moved forward, she motioned her crew to follow. "Our old favorites are back, along with some fresh new blood." Of course, she'd emphasized blood on purpose.
That was when the other vampire appeared, seemingly out of nowhere. He always knew how to make an appearance. "Miss Reede... Miss Lancaster." Desmond cooed, standing right behind the second in command. He carried himself with the grace of a prince, and attempted to dress and speak like one as well. His hair was a dull blonde with deep cobalt eyes that a girl could get lost in, with skin to rival the paleness of Klyde's. "Forgive me for interrupting, queen, but who is this new blood you speak so passionately about?" He continued where she'd left off, as if he'd been there for the whole conversation.
Nami gave an evil smirk when asked about the rotten apple of her eye. "Here isn't the place to chat about it, boys. Get online when you're settled in your rooms and we'll go over everything in preparation for tomorrow."
"Alrighty then." Atticus handed the boy a cup of pills. That ought to knock him out until tomorrow. "Take those when you get into your room. You know the drill by now." He really didn't feel like going over it for the 100th time. "And by the way Shun... Everybody feels pain. Remember that."

Ginji returned his sister's hug. "That's all you can do, Mitsu. I'm sure if you try, everything will be alright." Once their hug had ended, he looked down to her with a smile. "I'll miss you too, Mitsu. Be sure to keep up with your studies, alright?"
"Idiot? But I..." Caleb had begun to whine, soon dragged from his work and back to where all of the people were congregating. He hated crowds, they freaked him out. All the more reason to retreat to a quiet place for a couple of hours.
Hitsu had stood out of the way until the crowd around Marty had dispersed a little, paying no mind on their conflicts or conversation. She just wanted her schedule and room number so she could go and put her bag away. She knew the centaur was nervous around... Everything, really... So she figured adding herself to the bunch should be avoided.
"Marty!" She called to him at last, stepping up to him with a smile. "I need my schedule, please. It's wonderful to see you again." Hitsu could only help he wasn't too stressed out.
"Well, look who's hiding in the shadows."
Deacon had left the seat he'd been determined to keep his a** glued to, if only to seek out Yuki and make him miserable. When the young man looked up to him, the frown of realization made Deacon smile.
"What do you want?" Yuki asked with disinterest, shifting his feet as he contemplated making a quick leave.
"I wanted to congratulate you for getting into the teaching program. Helping tutor the little brats in Earth, I hear. Funny, considering that I put in for the same position... And you got it... And I taught you everything you know."
The growing venom in the tabby's voice made Yuki a little nervous. Though, he managed not to show it. "Yeah, I'm sure that they decided that putting you in a position where there is real danger would be high on their interest list. Someone lost an eye in your class last year, didn't they?"
"Not my ******** fault the little b*****d didn't know how to catch a scalpel. The p***y."

"..I know," mumbled Shun as he took the cup. Yes, everyone felt pain, but it didn't mean he was about to let everyone know he was hurt. Doing so would likely make him a prime target for certain individuals, and quite frankly he wouldn't be able to put up as much of a fight while injured.
Quietly, he went on towards his room, ignoring all other souls along the way.
Once at the room, he saw Blade already inside. Narrowing his eyes at the other boy, he approached to make a few things clear.
"I don't like this, and I'm sure you don't either. Leave me and my s**t alone and this might not be too bad. I swear, if I find you touching my s**t, I will kill you," he growled at the thief. That said, he turned away and set the cup of pills down to grab a few of his things. He'll unpack his stuff more later.
Frowning at the threat, Blade let out a sigh before shaking his head to himself and continuing to get his little area of the room set up. He wouldn't be all too surprised if Shun was willing to follow up on something like that.

Breaking the hug Mitsu tried to smile. "I will, brother." Shifting the bag a little she looked to the door nervously. So she supposed this was it. It was late and she still had unpacking to do, not to mention her brother needed to get home. Sad eyes turned back toward her sibling but she somehow managed to keep that sadness out of her voice. "I guess I will see you later. I want to shower and then I need to unpack. Please take care while I'm away." She offered one last quick hug before she trotted off leaving the auditorium. Goodbyes weren't her strong suit so it was a battle to keep from crying.
Looking at her papers again, Mitsu studied the name of her roommate. "Riyo R...." She wondered what kind of a person she was. Hopefully they would be someone nice. She had never had to stay in a dorm before and couldn't imagine living with a bully. "Oh god...please let it not be a bully." A shiver at the very thought ran up and down Mitsu's spine. True she had gotten used to the bullying but living with it was a whole other matter.
"O..Oh. T..thank you Miss Reede." Marty blushed slightly rubbing the back of his head. She really wasn't a bad kid at all. Then another voice got his attention as the others began to move away. "Oh, Miss Hitsu Nox. How is your brother doing?" Quickly he found her papers and handed them to her. "Is he looking forward to teaching?"
"Oh Desmond," Tessa nearly purred. "Its so good to see you." The first truthful statement all day. Listening to their queen intently Tessa gave a nod. "Online would be best. No need to stay and mingle with the common wealth."
"Understood," Kylde nodded. "I already have my schedule so I will be unpacking. I'll be online shortly after. The usual place?" Violet eyes gleamed with mischief and not the innocent kind.

Riyo didn't linger too long, trying to avoid The Swarm or whatever they fancied themselves. Double checking when she finally reached her room, the door opened with a slight creak, her hand reaching for the light switch.
"Welcome home, honey." She spoke to herself, since apparently her roommate wasn't there yet. Closing the door and finally letting down her guard, her face went from unreadable to tired and miserable in seconds. Here she was again. Another dorm room, with another room mate (wherever she was). Deciding on the bed farthest from the door, she tossed her backpack on it, which was adorned with various red and black pins, patches, and thread... And when the girl opened it, there was nothing inside but a top hat. Glancing over her shoulder, Riyo quietly reached into the hat and started pulling out clothes, blankets, posters, books, the works. She was like Mary Poppins.
"Of course." Nami confirmed, turning around to get a look at her main crew in person for the last time tonight. "Lets make it a year they shan't forget." Already trying to pep talk the troops. What a queen. "Let us adjourn to our room, Tessa."
Desmond frowned as she confirmed that they wouldn't be talking in public about their future plans at this time. He always enjoyed watching the females' faces change as they discussed plans for ruining lives. "As you wish, queen."

(sorry forgot about Caleb lol)
Dragging Caleb back to the main auditorium, Neko deposited him close to the tables. "Your work is here." He pointed to the random mess of napkins, used plates, and drink cups littering the tables. "Don't go wandering off again, if I have to track you down I'll skin your mangy hide and decorate my living room floor with it." Neko, of course, was kidding but his expression didn't let that on very well. "I'll be back at the clock tower, let me know when you're done for the night." Eying the remains of the snacks, Neko started to pick out the things he liked to take back with him. Might as well have something to munch on.
It seemed like such a long walk but finally Mitsu was at the dorms. She passed the front entrance where a dog idly stood by taking immediate interest as soon as anyone walked in. His tail began to wag happily behind him as he eyed Mitsu but he did not dare move from his post.
Moving on, Mitsu follow the directions on the map until she came to her room. She wondered if her roommate was in yet. Knocking lightly, Mitsu pushed open the door peeking her punch-soaked head inside. "H...hello?" Eyes fell on Riyo on the far end of the room unpacking her things....from a hat?
"Yes, lets. I think Daddy already sent servants to the dorm to wait for us. They should have our things." Offering one last goodbye to the boys Tessa followed after Nami, leaving the auditorium.

Riyo glanced back momentarily and stuffed the hat into her backpack, so it looked like she was pulling it out of her bag. "Hello." She called back and continued with her business. Having everything she wanted out and neatly on the floor, the first thing she did was remove the current comforter on the bed and replace it with her own black and red striped one from home. Then she proceeded to hang a couple of rather disturbing posters on the walls with some tape she kept for just such an occasion. It probably seemed like she was trying to ignore the girl she'd be sharing a room with... Which wasn't far from the truth.
Her already neatly folded clothes found their way into the hum-drum bureau the school provided, and her well-kept laptop sat on the desk. She was well on her way to making the place feel better than home. Anything she didn't find satisfactory on her side of the room she had replaced with her own and promptly stuffed the schools under her bed.
