"Ooo. Ouch." Star said. "But skateboarding, huh? My brother tried once, and-- well let's just say that didn't go too well either.." She said, stopping once Josh gave her a glare. After that, he looked away again, making Star almost laugh.

"Man, must of been bad. I've seen what landing the wrong way can do." Thayli said, trying not to laugh as Star glared at her brother again.

Conall threw the gun to the side.
-"Yeah... they're expelling me. I'm so sorry, Celia, it's just... trouble always finds a way for following me. That was part of the reason... that was the reason why I was moving around all the time. From turning in drug lords to getting expelled from all the schools in a district, I've had to move for a lot of reasons..."
Conall leaned against a wall and sank, arms slung over his knees and eyes burning a hole in the ground.
-"I'm so sorry. I guess someone really must hate me."
Conall looked up, looking at what for all he knew was an imaginary figure.

Kiyoko was still relaxed in his grip as he stroked through her hair. Her mind froze momentarly; did he run his hand on the sticthes? Apparently not, for he took no notice in it physically. That's a good thing, but-
Then he kissed her, full on the lips.
Her mind suddenly fuzzed, not able to tell what was what anymore, lost in a newly discoved passion of love. She knew not the time nor of anything else around her for what felt like a long time as she returned the kiss, their lips locked in a harmony. This was new, strange, but.......it made her happy, for some unforseen reason. She couldn't even feel the pain striking through the veins of her leg. She still eased, wanting this to last. Strange, she was the last person she expected of herself to feel this way, especially all in one day.
As the knocks and Ray's answer finally registered in her mind as he had ended the kiss by no choice, she then realized the moment was over. She sighed; she knew they'd come in now.
Ms. Wallen, sighed, and opened the door. Sure enough, they were both inside, in each other's arms. She sighed; from the look on both of their faces, there was probably some love-dove moment she nearly walked in on. She didn't see it either way, but she was tired, and very stressed. She approached them normally, keeping nice, since they were the victims of this whole mess; why yell at them?
"Ah, I apologize for being rude. It's-haha-been a LONG day, as you know." she said, sitting down in one of the chairs (the one Kiyoko had occupied not long ago), tapping her pencil on a clipboard she held in her hand. "Well, for starters, Michael and Lucy aren't roaming the halls; a relief to you both, I'd assume." she replied, and got up and began to pace, telling them what she knew.
"Well, as far as we can tell, the blame here is shared between a few people. First, Lucy. After tracking her phone conversations, we found one with Michael, exactly 5 minutes before the small kidnapping episode that got worse quickly. If I remember correctly, she was messing with you earlier on, correct?" she asked Kiyoko. Seeing the girl silently nod, she continued. "Then Michael. Turns out he wasn't as innocent as we thought. Take a look at this." she then unclipped the board, holding up a small bag full of powder.
Kiyoko looked silently as they came in, and she didnt' move except to nod her head. However, this bag confuesd her; nothing she had ever seen before. But yet, it looked familiar, like out of a book. "What is it?" she asked.
"Ah, that's right. Your brother would probably know, since he's into sports and thought what to do and what NOT to do." she grinned as she brought the bag closer and placed it in her hands. "The official name I do not know, but it's an illegal steroid drug; while it enhances the muscles, it has bad effects. Cloudyness in mind, messes with judgement...." she looked to them, giving them an understanding nod. " We do have a tape of this whole mess, so if you'd like to see it, you may. But taht's up to you; we're not forcing it on anyone. It'll be used in court-nono! Not like that!" she said quickly, for Kiyoko had a look like she was about to puke and pass out momentarly. "I merely mean on the school's behalf; it's our job either way, so it's going to be reported under a name, but I already talked to your mom; we've made an agreement, I promise you!"
Now it made sense; she had seen it out of Ben's sports health textbook.
However, at the word of court, Kiyoko could feel her head spinning. She stumbled slightly, using Ray to prop herself back up. Screaming people.......accusations....she hated it all. She listened while leaning a tired head on Ray, while hte principal clarified what she meant. So Mom knew......she'd have to call her tonight. Poor thing; she was probably freaking out at home!
"Now, then we have........well, us, as the staff." She sighed rather heavily, as if about to die, and plopped into a chair. She looked up at them, almost in a pitying look. "A-after looking at past records and recent conflicts between you and Lucy, we should have kept a better eye on you both, mainly for your safetly. As too late as it is, I apologize for not looking over my students well enough." she sighed, before going back to the clipboard, a akward silence filling in.
As the principal looked at them in pity, Kiyoko grew nervous; it was as if she was confessing to God or something. She stayed silent, not sure how to answer that. Yeah, they are late, and it's too late to fix the damage, but could they? She said nothing.
Shirou jumped in to end it, first by examing a doll on hte floor. Strange, he'd never seen it before. He sat it on the table string-side down before speaking. "Now, as we can see, it's really late. Ms. Wallen here talked to the Board, and everyone is moving up here, for safetly. As for you and some of the others......you have yet to bathe. Not to be rude, but haha!" he chuckled. "You smell like something died in your hair."
"So, after some consideration, you need to bathe; it'd be unfair to us as teachers to deny you this. Oh, and for Kiyoko.....I'm sorry Ray, but we can't let her leave. Not tonight, anyways. Tomorrow might be better, but for now she'll need to stay here. So, we're giving you an option; you can stay here, or head to whatever room you're using to stay for hte night.
If you have any questions on anything, please, both of you, feel free to ask! It's best to get it all out of the way tonight! We could have missed something." he said, as he leaned against the wall.

Celia's eyes watered up. She didn't want to see him leave. When she was with him she felt all her feelings rush back to her. She didn't like to see him like this at all. She knelt down in front of him. She took his hands in her's, weaving her fingers between his. She closed her eyes for a minute to get rid of the tears in her eyes. "But you didn't do anything. I bet you that Lucy or someone planted the drugs in your locker... I don't want to see you go..." she said, her voice progressively getting softer as she spoke. She kissed one of his hands gently.
After a minute she said, "Where does this leave us?" softly. Celia didn't really want them to be over, even with everything considered. There was just something about him. He was like an abused child trying to find his way.
Ray listened to the principal drag on and on. He wished she would just go away so that he could be alone with Kiyoko again. He didn't even look at Ms. Wallen, he just stared at the wall, holding Kiyoko tight. He tried to concentrate on what she was talking about, but it was hard to. He felt Kiyoko get weak and lean into him. He supported her easily and stroked the top of her head gently, resting his chin on it lightly.
He was not suprised in the end to hear that Lucy was to be blamed for this. She was a maniacle b***h all the time. He held himself back from laughing while she pulled out the drugs. Of course that oversized brainless jock was on steroids. Steriods increase muscles but shrink other parts of the body. It's not even worth it in the end. He simply shook his head and tryed to pay attention to what was being said.
"Everything is going to be okay..." he whispered in her ear for only her to hear. He knew that this was hard on her. All he could do is try to help the best he could at this point.
Once Shirou finally jumped in he looked over at him. "I'm definitally staying." he said in a firm tone. He was going to if he was offered or not, so it was nice to know that he didn't have to fight to stay. As much as he just wanted to be alone with her he needed to shower. He didn't want to smell, not like he smelled that bad on his own, its just being crammed with a million other people.
"If I take a shower will there be someone here watching her?" he asked, knowing that the answer would probably be yes. He just wanted to take a quick shower and get back to her.

Noticing the principal harden at Ray's tone and attitude, Shriout gave her a "zip-it" look. He'd have to handle it from here on out, apparently. She'd say something she was gonna regret otherwise...
"Of course we'd let you stay. You didn't think you'd have to put up a battle, did ya? If I did, you would have been kicked out of class multiple times by now, Mr. Distractor." he smirked and talked in a friendly tone. He knefw full well Ray wouldn't have budged anyways. "I'll stay in the nurses's room with Kiyoko, in case someone tries something shifty. While that's usually impossible now, well, this day has proved that there is no end to madness." he sighed. He took a pen off the table and began to fiddle with it, like some ADD child or ADHD one. Or, just a bored kid; you take your pick there.
As Kiyoko held onto Ray, she noticed him support her to stay up, whispering in here ear as well. She smiled inwardly; while he knew this was hard, he really had no idea just how hard it was. So Mr. K was taking charge now; she found this comforting.
Shriou took the bag back, sitting it on hte desk and handing her the doll. "Yours, I take it?" he asked gently. Heh, so she made it herself. He'd have to show her his ice statue collection sometime. Hey, he had new inspiration now! He'd make a crazy one and name it Chaos!
"Ya ready, ray? The sooner the better, and we can all go to sleep."
Kiyoko took the doll with a silent nod of thanks, hugging it to her chest. She looked up at Ray; Mr. K was right, she'd be fine in his care mometarly (especially after mr Karage-moves or whatever it was).

Conall's eyes momentarily glazed over at what he thought about what he could do.
-"Well... I could get my GED. I could go to the community college that isn't all that far away. This way for once I won't have to move. Unless... I end up going to jail. If that happens..."
Conall shook that horrible idea off.
-"I'll get a job, I'll move out of my mom's house. She's part of the reason I'm angry so much. I move out of there, sober up even more... and see how it goes..."
Conall looked at Celia, wondering what she thought.

Ray smirked a little and shrugged. "Yah never know." he said simply to his comment about putting up a battle. It was always a possiblilty. He nodded, "I'll go take one now." he said and then looked down at Kiyoko. He kissed her forehead lightly. "I'll be back in a little bit..." he whispered to her softly. He released her carefully and slowly walked out of the room. He knew that Mr. K would protect her as much as he could. He doubted that anything would happen, but you never know.
Once out of the room he hurried to the locker room and pushed his way to take a shower. He pissed off a lot of guys but he didn't care. He was slick and got passed the teachers who where supervising it. Plus the word had buzzed around already about Kiyoko. Since everyone was so stuck together most of the people knew so they just stayed out of his way.
He took a hot shower, but the water wasn't as hot as it should of been. He scrubbed his hair and body quickly, knowing he only had a limited amount of time. It usually didn't take him long to shower though.
Once he was done he changed into the clothing he was given. Ridiculously colored flannel pants and a matching button up top. He didn't put on the top though, it was quite annoying. He went to his locker and threw his dirty clothing in there and pulled out an old, but clean, white undershirt and pulled it over his head.

Celia listened to him, eyes never wavering away from his face. She didn't like the idea of him having to leave though. His plans sounded good if he absolutely had to, but there had to be some other way for him to stay here. It wasn't right, he hadn't done anything wrong and their expelling him... but she didn't know what he had down while she wasn't there.
"It sounds nice..." she whispered. "But I still don't want you to leave here." [[Wow, crappy... sorry XP added: oo I'll be back in like 15 minutes!]]

Conall held Celia's hand and made a grim smile.
-"Well, unless we find whoever did it, it looks like we don't have a choice. I just don't know what to do, though. I mean, I know every dealer in the school and they don't even mess with coke. I know a few people outside of school that do, but that's the problem. We can't get to them. And they run in different circles than the dealers in our school."

As Ray left, Mr. K sighed in relief. “Wow, I thought it’d be harder than that. Shows what I know about students, I guess.” he shrugged. "Can you walk ok?" he asked her.
Kiyoko nodded, and began to walk towards him, not yet trying to really walk, honestly. She’d find out now, and she took a deep breath to calm her nerves. It didn’t go well; she could feel herself stumbling as a pain kept shooting through her leg, her arms spread out to keep balance as she took about three steps before beginning to fall backwards, her arms flaing around to keep upright…..
She was caught quickly by Mr. K, and he picked her up in his arms. That was way too close. “You ok?” he asked, and looked with compassion and pity as she nodded. Poor thing couldn’t even walk too well; perhaps she’d feel better tomorrow. Chances were they were gonna sleep in late, due to the late hour as it was. “Let’s get you to bed, hm?” he asked her kindly, and walked out and down the nurses’ hall before anyone else could get in a word.
As they entered the room with lined beds, Mr. K. sat her in a chair as he unmade a freshly sheet-changed bed. Kiyoko could smell a faint scent of lavender as he fluffed the pillows and uncovered the sheets. She then felt herself picked up and laid onto the bed, and watched silently as the teacher covered her with the blankets. A nurse came in with another blanket, much thicker. “Supposed to be cold tonight.” she said as she spread it out on the bed, then left.
Mr. K knew she wasn’t going to sleep yet, so he sat down in a chair next to her; a few nurses were looking for either a large chair or a loveseat Ray could use. The two began to coverse.
“So, is this better or worse than last time?”
“Hard to tell, actually. I haven’t seen anyone speak to me other than you guys and Ms. Espiosa. Well, since the incident, anyways.” she shrugged, wrapping herself in her blankets like a cocoon; they were very warm and kept the heat in well. She then propped herself up on the bed, putting the pillow beind her so she could rest her back on it, pulling up hte covers to gover most of her and her dark blue and gold nightgown.
"Well, your mother agreed to call tomorrow; we had to assure her to death taht you were alive though." he grinned; fun conversation that was. "She really cares about you and your brother." He paused. "Did you make that yourself?" he asked, pointing to the doll that was in her hands.
Kiyoko looked down at what he was pointing at, and nodded.
”Well, it’s very pretty. I’ve got my hobbies as well; did you know that I made ice figurines? School kids like to spread out info like that.” he shrugged. He looked at Kiyoko’s surprised face and grinned. “I’ll have to show you sometime.”

Wu Zun managed to escape from the turmoil of the cafeteria. The students were starting to migrate to the upper floor for their sleeping arrangements and he wanted nothing to do with keeping them in order. There were enough teachers there anyway.
He moseyed on over to the teacher's lounge, since no one said where the teachers would be staying, and found it partially empty. He lit up a cigarette near the window and watched the far away lightning, a certain female teacher on his mind.

Some teachers were talking in the background.
"Did you hear about that new girl... what was her name... Kotaku? Kiyashi? ... Something Asian. Anyway, I heard she was the one who got shot!" Wu Zun's ears perked up.
"No way! Here? In our school? Is that what that noise was..."
"Yeah, I know. And guess who saved her."
"Who?"
"That delinquent boy, Michaels!"
"Really? The one who knocked out Adrienne and attacked the police officers?" Wu Zun now fully turned towards the two teachers, wide-eyed.
"Yeah, but they're alright, I think. Recovering in the nurses-"
It was all he had to hear before he left the teachers' lounge. Within a matter of minutes, Wu Zun entered the station and spotted that male teacher. Kiyoshi, or whatever it was. His Chinese pride made him pause before speaking to the other man.
"Hey, good evening. I heard that something went down and I wanted to check up on everyone." Two beds were occupied with the new kids in the school but Adrienne wasn't to be found. "Are you ok?" Wu Zun said to the girl, whose name he didn't know, walking towards them but keeping an eye out for the person he really came to see.
