Tomoro slowly wandered into the green house, her lengthy lace dress trailing behind. She took a small breath, inhaling the fresh scent of soft brown soil and freshly watered plants, and moved over to the section of herbs. "Now..." she spoke softly, as if no person could hear her. "You really are well taken care of, aren't you...?" Tomoro attempted to ignore the tears falling in the greenhouse; this place did echo, anyway, it wasn't too hard to tell. "Why waste yourselves away on something like love when it will come back and hurt you anyway...? I don't understand." Tomoro turned around, and spotted a small pathway, leading up to an old crickety wooden bench. She walked over, and sat down carefully, spreading out her dress as she took out a book dealing with medical herbs. "I see..."

((from school gates))
Max headed into the building. It was very large and reminded him of his home. He cracked his neck and his back and headed forward. He looked around for someone who looked like they knew what they were doing. He wasn't exactly sure if he could grow his plants, but he was pretty sure that it could be open for anyone. He found a small patch of dirt that was open for the taking and tilled it. He dropped a few strawberry seeds into the soil and covered them. Then he watered them and waited.

Tomoro looked up from her book, and tilted her head slightly, watching the strange man plant his seeds. Silently, she stood up, and shut the book with a soft 'thud,' as a few particles of dust flew out. She then slowly walked over to the man, keeping her guard up; men were all the same. "You know..." she spoke quietly, almost in a whisper. "They're not going to grow immediately. Strawberries only grow in Summer. They also take about 6 weeks to grow. Did you know that the strawberry belongs to the class of Rosaceae? There are over 20 different kinds of berries in the Rosaceae family, too. I prefer the Woodand strawberry, but you look like you have Fragaria Virginia; the Virginia strawberry, I mean." Hopefully, Tomoro thought, there could be some common bond between the plants and the strange man. Of course, it didn't really matter to her, but she figured that may be the way to start her new school off on the right foot.

Bukotsu looked up from his research on his tonics, he then saw that more people were coming in and working with plants, he found that people were coming into this empty place. He smiled and felt good that people were coming in to work with them, he didn't think this many people were coming in. He then got up from his desk and walked into the forest to find an Nardrassil berry.

Max cocked his head. "Well then, It's a good thing I brought more!" he said. He didn't care that they grew in summer, as long as he had a growing supply of strawberries. They were his favorite. "You new?" He asked. "Me too. My name's Max." He turned back to his plants. He took out a sign and wrote his name on it. He smiled and put it into the soil. The sun was beating down on him, so he thought that maybe it could have mimicked the summer weather. "What's your name?" he asked.

"Ah! My name... is Tomoro. It's a pleasure." Tomoro sort of forced a smile; she wasn't used to talking with people often. Even is she did, she thought, they would think her strange powers with Earth were frightening. The only thing she could rely on were her plants; the only ones that ever listened to her. "I'm new... I just got here today. This place is pretty large, I don't know where to start." Quickly, she dug a small hole in the soft soil next to his strawberry seeds, and opened the patch camouflaged on her lace dress. With a swift motion, she dug a few seeds out, and sprinkled them in while covering the dirt with the other hand. "I hope..." she mumbled to herself, "these will finally grow... anyway!" She finally piped up, attempting to seem cheerful. "Would you like to... go do something? You don't have to, I mean, I'm perfectly fine alone." Smooth, Tomoro thought. He's probably one of those guys that will be popular and then go spreading rumors about me. Just what I need. She sighed, and put her hands behind her back, looking up at the top of the greenhouse.

Suddenly, a sharp pain struck Tomoro, and she took a few deep breaths. "Max.... I... have to go. Something is wrong here, I sense it. If... you want to follow me, you can, but I'll be back sometime soon. Don't wait for me." Tomoro swerved around, clutching her chest, and ran off leaving Max behind, as much as she didn't want to. "The South Courtyard.... " she whispered. "That's where the plants are telling me to go."

Once inside, 7 hours later, Tomoro walked in, droopy eyed and sleepy. She dragged her feet over to her herbs, and noticed a tiny bud where a seed was once planted. The only reason for such a fast reaction to the water and soil was the spell her grandmother put on the seeds long ago. Tomoro smiled widely, an extremely rare thing to do, and made a motion with her hand that concluded that she accomplished something extremely important. Her eyes widened a bit, and she noticed the empty bench; perfect to sleep on, after her first day. After all, she didn't exactly have anywhere to rest. She closed her eyes slowly, and after a few short moments, relaxed breathing echoed througout the greehouse.

The bright little girl had gotten her fill of potatoes and gravy in the cafeteria and thus wandered away from ehr new friend Zejx. She had found her way to the green house now. Her ill-clad feet scuffing a bit as she padded her way into the building with all the plants and such. She wandered about with a slight amasement at everything that was there-- the had never seen a green house before. But soon something else caught her attention: Tomoro. The one who was napping upon the bench, or so it seemed to the little girl. Felicity skipped up to the bench, shifting into a dead run about five feet from it. She then thrust her tiny body into a leap to try and make it atop the bench... the first attempt was unsuccessful. So she repositioned herself and tried again, scurrying like a little kitten trying to chase a toy up the back of a couch. Success! She was finally atop the bench, and nearly draped over Tomoro now.

Tomoro shot her eyes opened and screamed; the echo bounced off of the walls, and she was sure everyone on campus had practically heard it. She quickly pushed the girl off, and jumped up as fast as she could, her heart beating a mile a minute. She stared at the girl as if she was crazy for a few moments, and then took off, rubbing her eyes. WHAT WAS THAT FOR!? I DIDN'T DO ANYTHING AT ALL, AND LITTLE SKIPPY HERE IS ALL OVER ME WHEN I WAKE UP! GOD KNOWS WHAT SHE DID! Ugh, I knew I shouldn't have come to this school! Tomoro scowled; what a way to wake up, with some random girl lying on top of you... after a while, she came to a stop, and decided to head to the hotsprings.

The gilr was taken by utter suprise at the femme's reaction. The scream startling her and plastering a shocked look upon her tiny painted face. Thins went dramatically down hill as the child was then shoved off Tomoro. Her malnourished form bumbing a bit at the end of the bench and then falling to the ground of the green house. After a very short moment of shock over her own sudden change of positions Felicity began to cry. At first it was a quiet high pitched squeal that morphed into an all out whine. She sat up and let more tears and screaming come forth, her tantrum almost in full force in mere seconds.

Bukotsu heard a scream from within the greenhouse. Dashing over from where the cacti were, he found a crying young girl. He ran over and knelt to view her.
"Hey, hey, what's wrong?" Bukotsu said looking at her smiling, "Did something happen?" Bukotsu said looking at the young girl as he held out a rare blue lotus he found earlier.

Feli was not about to let her tantrum get in the way of getting someone else in trouble. Through the whines and tears she said; "Girl with... the eye cover... was mean!" The kast word morphing into another whine as she took a second to sob some more. "She.. she pusheded me... and... and I felled and hit my head!" She screamed some more as she sat there near the bench she was on earlier. Her tears causing the tiger face that was once painted perfectly to smear even more. Her ears red, the only sign that she was getting flushed from being so upset.

Her eyepatch now off, Tomoro stumbled back into the greehouse, continually coughing up blood. Right when she walked in, the sound of a temper tantrum could be heard, and she shook her head while coughing up more blood. "Stupid girl.... her fault for jumping on me. I hate little kids..." Tomoro continued to stumble, straight until she met the place where she planted her herbs, next to Max's strawberries. Picking a few of her herbs, she shoved them into her mouth, while crying, and praying. Thank you, Grandma.... you really are the only one that knows what I'm going through... thank you... She pointed a finger at Max's strawberries, and within 10 seconds, they flourished up, and the berries glowed with a red color. Tomoro vomited blood up one more time, and then fell into it, breathing heavily.

Shepard entered slowly. He saw the girl laying there in her pool of blood. He didn't know whether to help her or not. He would usally brush this off and let her wallow in her blood. But he was stuck. He could be an a** and not aleast pick her up. or he could ask help from a spcial someone...
