The hallways and front steps that make up Shibusen are all very white and clean. There are staircases everywhere that seem to be either unnecessary or redundant, but the views from the balconies are absolutely stunning.
While the symmetric aesthetic of the building is very pretty, it's sometimes difficult to tell one side of the building from the other. Bring a compass!

"..."
Cypress Borden was not a happy camper.
"..."
It had been five days, six hours and forty-five... forty-six minutes since she'd arrived in Death City, found an apartment, found a part-time job, found the school, finally found the damn hallway her classroom was supposed to be in and
nobody
was in
the freaking
building.
"..."
It was bad enough she even had to go to this god-forsaken school out in middle of the god-forsaken desert, but now she didn't even know if said god-forsaken school was even open today.
"..."
Maybe she should yell. Yelling relieves stress and maybe somebody would hear her. Maybe she was just in the wrong hallway again.
Maybe she was in the wrong city, and she should just go home while she had the chance.
Maybe she should just beat herself in the face with her own hatchet-arm.
"I'm... going... to kill... a child..."
One could have mistaken her aura of frustrated hatred for that of the Kishin himself.

Music could be heard oldy clearly down one of the halls of Shibusen and faintly down the halls surrounding it. A young woman with long brown hair was in some wierd upside down position in one of the empty class rooms. A pair of headphones was around her neck but they sounded like a full stereo set. She was reading a book and there was a glass bottle on the desk beside her legs. She was just hangin out (litterally), singin along to parts of the song and reading. She still needed to find a place to bunk down. She'd found a bulding to hide her stuff behind till she had a place but for now she had no idea what she'd do. She told her parents she'd handle herself just fine, but now she supposed she should have planned ahead a bit more..... whoops. The worst part about being homeless out here.... they were in the middle if a freakin DESERT!!! No clouds, no rain that she was used to, no calming shrouds of fog- just heat.... and that sketchy as hell sun-thing.
'Oh wha' did ye expect?
Nana na na-na na!
Oh! Tell m' wha' did ye expect?
Ta lay it on me 'ead.
Soo is i' all upon me 'ea~d?
BANG BANG!
Yer dead~!'

Cypress's ears perked up at the sound of music. Someone was close.
She was now relieved she hadn't resorted to screaming like a crazy person.
She quickly scurried down the halls in pursuit of the sound.
It was actually much farther away than it sounded. The massive, bizarrely contorted hallways did a number on the acoustics in the building. She peeked around the doorway slowly. Thick, black hair spilled over her shoulder as the awkward angle shifted her loose hat.
There was a person in there. A person hanging upside-down-ish... singing and reading in the classroom. Cypress tried to lean over farther to get a better look at how the girl had managed to position herself like that, but nearly tripped into the room. She felt it would be a little more graceful if she actually made her presence known before tripping over her feet.
"Excuse me," She clearly stated as she walked into the doorway, yet remained firmly outside the classroom, "Are you a student of Death Weapons Meister Academy? If so, would you be so kind as to tell me why the building is so empty today? You're the first other person I've seen here all day..." her confident tone trailed off uncertainly. She'd actually been at this for hours. It was a little pathetic.

Uriah would wonder around the school hallway and find himself in Shibusen smiling as he looked up at the sign and walked in. Though he wasn't enrolled and suddenly heard music playing loudly in the area only to turn and see a young girl reading a book and smiled as he walked by. He looked as if he was looking for something and would soon sit down next to her looking in the book she was reading and put on a puzzled curious look.

The woman tilted her head back farther (much farther than one would expect a human would be able to. Its not that she wasn't, she's just really flexible!) to get a good look at whoever had spoken to her. "Aye. Tha' Ai am. As fer whai tha buildin's empty, I 'aven't a cluu." As she spoke, one would notice her voice was a bit deep for a female. She hadn't bothered to turn off her music, she never did. The same song still rang out through the halls. If anyone cared to look, the book she was reading said 'HELLSING' and had the image of a man brandishing a gun with a cross in his mouth.

Cypress sighed heavily. This wasn't going well at all. She then noticed the boy wandering around the halls in the same manner as herself. This caused her to lighten up a bit--at least she wasn't alone in her nomadic trek across the building.
She hesitantly took a step inside. There was no use loitering in the hallway. She set her hands on her hips and gave an appraising glance through the room, eyes landing on the girl's reading material. She raised an eyebrow in distaste but said nothing.
There was an awkward beat of silence, save the girl's pounding music. The boy over there hardly seemed able to converse, much less about to. An irritated grimace worked its way across Cypress's features before she decided to break the pseudo-silence.
"So are you a weapon or a meister!?" Ouch, that came out much sharper than anticipated. She had only wanted a conversation to ease the tension, but then again, this whole day had been far to disorganized for the girl to stay calm and collected.

Raymond Dunham
Raymond entered the grounds and noticed two girls and the guys he had seen earlier at the coffee shop. One of the girls was hanging upside down while reading a book and listening to really loud music. Ray flipped the words right side up and read 'Hellsing'. He wondered what it was about. He heard her speak and wondered what she had eaten as a child to get such a deep voice. He wondered what they were doing here and if either of the girls were weapons. He needed to find a partner and quick."So what are you guys doing here?"

Cypress spun around and glowered at the new guy, Makoto, in response to his question. Cypress Borden is a calm and collected person. Cypress Borden has it all together. Cypress Borden does not get "angry".
...Her brother would be laughing his a** off if he could see his sister now. The thought only made her angrier. She was starting to get a migrane.
Cypress eased herself into a relaxed standing position and rubbed at her temples. She brushed a few stray pieces of hair back under her white hat and reopened her eyes. She appeared calm now.
"I'm Cypress Borden. Would you happen to know where everyone is?" she questioned in a haughty tone. This day was not being kind to her.

"Ah. So you're a weapon too," she stated with little emotion. She wouldn't have cared that much even if he was a meister. She just wanted someone to tell her what the hell was going on.
Cypress never thought she'd be homesick for sweeping the front steps and cleaning the windows. At least she knew how to go about doing chores.

"Me? Well, much as Ai'd love ta- A ain't a weapon. Soo, A mus' be a maistar." She chuckled with a wide, strange, kinda creepy grin. "Thoo, A don' 'ave a weapon yet." she said thoughtfully, looking up at the ceiling- er!- floor. She looked over at the other guys who had showed up. "Ah, nat much. Jus' 'angin oot."

Uriah would turn and watch the girl as he heard her yell out are you a meister or a weapon. It startled him a bit as he jumped as he heard her voice. He would then tilt his head and stay in silence from being shy and didn't respond to it.
