Welcome to Gaia! ::

She looked around to find the source of the voice. She saw a boy and realized he was carrying an IPOD. "I.. I think I'm out of the game." She tossed her cards onto the table. She couldn't handle the whole thing going on between the group she hardly knew. Getting up, she opened her messenger bag. "Here." She handed the small cord to Conall. "You can probably sneak into the computer lab and use it." She shrugged and walked away.

Al stood up as the girl left. "Hey, what's wrong?" Thinking he said something wrong, he set his cards down and pushed them to someone else. "Someone play for me, OK?" He was thinking of following Ray just in case he decided to get a little frisky with an underage girl, but he could always come back later.

Alastair caught up to the girl and stopped in front of her. He passed by Conall and smelled.... alcohol? Whatever, his main worry was the girl. "Um, hey, are you alright?" He scratched the back of his head. "I'm sorry if we upset you or anything."

Kiyoko looked up from her hand, worried that the girl was suddenly leaving. She saw him hand a Ipod Charge cord to a boy, then leave. But some awful smell got to her, a strong vile smell. causing She began to cough a bit; what was that? As she stopped the small fit, she realized something. Was that....alcochol? If it was, it was very strong, not made for normal consumption. She was thankful when he left, but wondered if he was drunk. That would cause a problem; last thing was being trapped in school with a drunk.

He grinned. "I don't see why we wouldn't be. We get up early, come here to loud children, teach them, then go home. A long day, despite how short it sounded." He pointed out."Hm, I'm not sure about Seniors, but there are students in general I can think of. Let's see....." he sat down with the orange juce and began to think aloud, to keep track.

"There are the Marson twins, but they never aim for harm, so I doubt that it was them. Raymond is a flirt, but wouldn't go for this kind of thing. Ms. Patty is like a ninja, but she hates coming anywhere near drinks, since her dad's an alcoholic and she's not. Then there's that one boy, Mr. Michaels.... actually, he did get arrested for assult or something once." he remembered suddenly, after fishing through papers. "Mabye we should explore the halls; if anyone smells of alcohol (since they had to at least carry it), it's a good chance they're our crooks." he said.

Al smiled. "Um, I don't think it'll be tomorrow either." He looked out the window at the pouring rain. "This is just the beginning. I think its best to stay where people can find you if something goes wrong. But its up to you." Nodding his head back to the group, he continued, "Oh, and we're all strangers, so we're just getting to know each other. Speaking of which.." He stuck out his hand. "I'm Alastair."

"I was thinking it might be Michaels.." Adrienne paused. "That would be logical. I mean, this place reeks of alcohol. The culprit wouldn't be able to get out of here without the smell lingering on him." She picked up an air freshener and started to spray around the room. "Guh, I hate this stuff... But the principal would be-" She coughed and sneezed, waving the air around her nose. It seems that she was very predisposed to smells. "- able to detect the smell. Do you have any spare clothes?" Sniffing her own, she jumped from the odor of alcohol.

"Don't want kids thinking we're drunkards."

"I know your name as well as a few of theres." She pointed at the two girls. Being polite though, she shook his hand. "Fate. Pleasure to meet you." Her gaze wandered to the window. "Good thing I love the rain." She laughed. The girl would go to any extent just to practice. Running was her life. Right after piano.

((Aww he's adorable!))

Adrienne glared at the sofa. "There must've been alcohol on that... Making me smell like this.." She looked around. "I don't want to be stuck here if anyone comes in and have to explain something... I'll go with you." She stared at him. "I have a feeling your shirt will be like a dress on me." The thought made her blush a little. "If anyone asks about the smell I'll say its... ... turpentine!" It did smell rather weird..

"Cool name." Alastair grinned but then raised an eyebrow. "It's a hurricane though.. Might get swept away!" He shrugged and turned a little. "Don't want you getting hurt, y'know?" His leader-ish side was popping up.

Kiyoko noticed that people were leaving. As she noticed this, her shyer self returned, and she suddenly felt uncomfortable. "Well, I'll take a look around the school and try to remember where rooms are located. I'll talk to you all later." she replied cheerfully. She gathered her purse, threw away the trash, and left.

The halls were alot cooler, and not very stuffy. It was like fresh air compared to here, and it was nice and open. Pulling out her Ipod, she turned it on and put the headphones in her ears. As "Waka Laka" was playing, she ventured the rooms, taking notes on what was where. She didn't regret leaving yet; they were probably tired of out-of-the-comfort-zone, and needed a break like she did.

"Good point." Shirou agreed. He opened the door to the entrance of hte staff room and looked around. Good, the coast was completely clear, and his office wasn't far, so there shouldn't be any problems....well, hopefully. "Ok, I think we're set. Ready?" he asked holding the door open for her.

Star smiled. "I agree." She said, truthfully.

Since almost everyone basically left, Josh got up as well. He wandered the halls for a bit, stopping by the chem. lab. He went inside and started looking through some of the stuff, pouring over all the stuff he'd be able to do in future years. He was really excited.
