Welcome to Gaia! ::

Garreth sighed as he unlocked the front doors of the school. He was exhausted. He'd spent the entire week before preparing a funeral, and now he was running on very little sleep as he prepared for the students who would be arriving later that afternoon. He hung a sign on the front doors of the school. The sign read, "ALL STUDENTS PLEASE REPORT TO THE CAFETERIA FIRST. THANK YOU."

Walking down the hall toward the cafeteria to await the students, he glanced into open doors of empty rooms. He smiled to himself while no one could see him, something he didn't do often. "I can feel this year will be good." he said, strolling into the cafeteria.

Akakage woke up from his quarters that morning feeling really groggy. Yawning he arose from his bed and did his morning rituals.

Teme awoke just after Akakage went into the bathroom. Yawning as well he started to stretch his legs and quietly waited for his master to finish. Looks like the first day is starting already.

Akakage finishing his shower went to his closet and put on his normal attire. He then decided to walk downstairs in the newly renovated school. So many changes this year, I wonder who'll be the new headmaster since Karaviv past on.

Teme chose to follow his master without a word being exchanged between the both of them.

A white-braided woman was walking along the streets of the city, holding a tall white staff in her right hand with a crescent blade mounted on it. The bottom of her long cloak swayed with each step she took as her lavender eyes grazed over her surroundings.
Eventually, her feet stopped at a large pathway, looking up at the large building in front of her.
The House of Bricks. So aptly named was the large stone structure. The building she had called home for several years when not out on travel.
She glanced across the familiar structure of the school. It had not changed in the least. She wondered what kind of students would be attending this year. There were few who could make the tuition, and the last few years saw a sparse attendance by her estimation. She was certain it would be no different this year either.
As she took a step forth toward the school...
"SIIIIILLVEEERR!!" She turned sharply as the cry increased in volume, it's owner zooming toward her. The scruffy white thing screeched to a halt midair right in front of her, panting.
Silver rose a brow. "Nice of you to join me", she said in a nonchalant manner. She was recieved by a canine look of aggrivation just then. "What's the big idea!! You just left me back there! How could you!" Silver's expression remained unchanged. "I didn't leave you, Korichiko. I thought you were behind me."
"Yeah, well I wasn't!" "And what caught your attention this time? Last time you went off chasing some stray cat." "Hey, that little bugger bit me...and don't you go changing the subject!"
"Why are you so upset, Korichiko? You know why we came back to Guren, so you knew exactly where to find me." The little wolf opened his mouth to reply, but found himself speechless. He then leaned back in the air, turning his head to the side in a defiant manner. "Yeah, well... You could at least act more worried about me, ya know."
Silver smiled. "I know you can take care of yourself. That's why I wasn't worried." She then turned back towards the school. "Come now. We don't want to be late."
She headed into the school then, Korichiko floating close behind, grumbling lowly.
She walked up the stone path and approached the large doors, immediately taking note of the sign tacked upon them.
Displaying no reaction to it, she promptly entered the school and made her way through the halls towards the western wing. She had meant to head upstairs to the main offices to find one of the Headmasters.
She didn't need to venture that far, since she turned at the sound of footsteps to see Garreth walking calmly down the halls on the east end of the main hall.
She turned back and walked in his direction. "Headmaster Gamelas", she called out. She walked up to him and bowed her head respectfully to him. "I have arrived."
Korichiko had been following Silver around the whole time, and had settled on her shoulder as she stopped to speak to Garreth. He just waved a paw at the man.

Garreth nodded to her. "Ah, Miss Estreyus. Another year, another slew of bright young faces to train...." he said. He glanced toward Korichiko, and nodded to him as well.

Namen Mali stood infront of the school. She seemed to stare up at it. No one will find out either of my secrets this time... she thought to herself as she headed up the steps to the door, nearly tripping on the first one. She laughed to herself. Her hands reached out and touched a sign. Raised letters... how lucky for me... she thought as she followed the light sound of footsteps to the cafeteria. She heard two teachers conversing and passed them by. She stopped where she was. There was still a lot of silence. She couldn't tell which way the cafeteria was now.

Once Rain reached the cafeteria she saw a few amount of other people there as well. She sat down in the back and took off her bag setting it on the floor. She adjusted her sword that was tied around her waist as her blue eyes scanned to room.

Garreth ran a hand through his hair at that comment. "Yes...Thank you, Miss Estreyus. She will be sorely missed. It's sad to say that Headmaster Curiat and I have already decided on her replacement... though our decision goes against every fiber of our being... we're hoping it was a wise one." he replied. "That person will be revealed when I go to give the opening speech."

Neria quietly took note as people began to gather within the cafeterial and take their seats. They were an interesting sort... She always enjoyed watching people as they were. How strong were they, and what sort of weapons or powers did they possess? What secrets might they hold? There was a good chance she may never find too many secrets, as she wasn't prone to getting close with anyone... but still, the curiosity of it all was bound to keep her very intrigued for a while. She finally took her seat, drawing her legs up and leaning forward slightly.
