Tokyo, Japan

Kyoya, wishing not to be there, was actually one of the first people to get changed.
He tied his hair into a low ponytail and went on a hunt for either a hiding spot or Daichi. Either or was perfectly fine with him.

It turns out he saw Daichi first.
"Oiii! Daichi~kun!" Kyoya called happily as he jogged up to the green haired boy.

Daichi was about to walk to the changing room when suddenly a familiar voice began to call his name. He turned around and saw Kyoya jogging up to him.

"Kyoya-kun! I feel like it's been so long!" Daichi laughed, hugging the fellow third year. He was joyful once again knowing that he would be able to hang out with Kyoya for a while.

Kyoya laughed. "It's only been an hour. Granted it was a boring as hell hour." He said, knowing he almost fell asleep, "At least I had Ren~chan to occupy my time. Even if she did get me yelled at."

"Did the pass I sent you work?" He asked, hoping Daichi didn't get in trouble for skipping class.

"It only been an hour. Granted it was a boring as hell hour." said Kyoya. Daichi chuckled and began to walk towards the changing room with him.

Kyoya asked if the pass he had sent Daichi worked. Daichi nodded, not really remembering at all what happened during class. All he could think back to were spitballs and a panicking teacher that had no idea what he was doing.

"I think so. I don't even remember. That whole hour was boring for me too." replied Daichi as he entered the changing room.

"Good. 'cause I really didn't want you to get in trouble." Kyoya chirped happily.

That smile was wiped off his face as he entered the sweaty and smelly room one more time. Some of the guys looked at him and turned away, others whispered. Again.

"I wonder why we're even doing this gym thing?" Kyoya said, trying to avoid the stares while twirling one of his bangs.

Lein Donotello

"Please wake up, Young Master! It's already time for breakfast!" Lein woke up that morning like always, being waken up by some servants and maids. One of them opened the curtains, that made the light sun came into his room and made him by be forced to blink and wake up. He hated mornings very much, as much as he hated his parents, but they were there today, what made his mood even more bad then usual. But like always, he doesn't show it.

He stood up from his bad and smiled at the maid inside his room, fakely, but so perfectly, that even some professional actors are fooled by it. "Thank you for waking me up, Miss Nanao. You are the one who is new, am I right?" She nodded, turned a bit red.

"Yes Young Master. A- and I was told to send Young Master to the breakfast room, where Master and Mistress are waiting. And please, call me Nanao...", she added with a slight blush and quickly prepared the clothes for Lein. In the inside, Lein was very tired of such behavior. Does she like me?, he thought very annoyed by it, but well, didn't show it. What shows is a beautiful smile and an understanding nod.

"Then I will take my leave and prepare myself." Then he went to make himself ready, showered and put on the uniforms for his school, combed his hair as good as possible. That was another thing that annoyed him. Appearance was a very important feature, that someone like him from the Donotello family must have. Actually, he doesn't care much. But for his objective, he had to consider it and make him looks just perfect. He sighed unnoticed as he prepared himself. This all was very tiring.

After that, he stepped out of the bathroom, nodded to Nanao politly, that was sended back with a slight blush and went to the dinning room, where his parents already waited for him. "You are late, Lein." His father stated with a high authority voice that Lein hated. He was tried to say something rude against it, but he didn't. He politly bowed in front of him and stated his apology. His mother glanced him with interrogating eyes, like every inch of his body had to move just perfectly, then strongly ordered: "Sit down. You made us wait too long."

And the tense atmosphere continued, although they were eating. Obviously, they tested his eating manners. But as they finally finished breakfast, and they didn't said anything, Lein assumed he did good, and must smirk inside. In your face., he thought and then went to school with his chauffeur, with a slight grin on his face. It was his win that time. And he loved to win over his parents.

Like always he was greeted by many people in his school. May it be girls, boys or teacher. He didn't like all of them, but he still politly greeted them with a smile.



School went normally. He managed to get two praises from the very scary math teacher and went through all the trouble to hear a guys problem in his class out, what was very annoying. But he managed to survive... somehow. Then he heard the announcement:

"Good afternoon students! After the bell rings, everyone make their way to the back field. The change rooms may be crowded, so if you want to get a head start before others start piling in, you are free to do so now!"

Inside, he was very happy. Sports! Finally a subject he loved to do!

[Hallway => Changing Room]

He quickly stepped and went inside the changing room, where already some people were and greeted them, smiling. "Good afternoon.", didn't really noticed everyone whispering because he was too busy to change into his gym clothes and didn't gave anyone notice.

Yuki turned around and seen a girl with long brown hair and smiled. "Hey there!" Akane looked a little confused as to why Yuki was greeting her, and stayed silent. "Uhh..." Yuki did not know what else to say, so she shut her mouth until,

Hayashi-san, Yamada-San, hello.

Yuki looked at Taura, who was attempting to smile, but failed miserably. Yuki sweatdropped and scratched the back of her head. "Uh... Hello there, Tsukino-san." Yuki smiled looking over at the girl with brown hair. "You're in the swim team as well, I assume?" Yuki looked over at the other small building, known as the boys changing room and seen Daichi walking inside. She tried waving at him, but apparently did not see her. That's a shame... Perhaps I shall this gym period. Considering the whole is doing gym together. Yuki then seen Kiku, sitting at the bleachers and sighed. I was being such a jerk to her earlier... Poor Satomi-chan. Yuki forgot all about the question she just asked Akane, and headed towards the change room, to change as quickly as she could, so she could go see Kiku. "Sorry, girls. I gotta run!"

Yuki ran inside the change room, as it began filling up. So, other girls wanted a head start too, did they? Yuki ran towards the locker number on her little paper. This building looks so small on the outside... But there are even two stories in this building. I've never had separate buildings apart from the school as change rooms before. Yuki shrugged and rushed towards her locker. I guess I can shower after gym. She took her school uniform off, but kept her socks on. She threw on her gym uniform top, and slid on her bottoms. She did her hair up in a high ponytail, knowing that it was required for girls with long hair. She ran outside and spotted Kiku still sitting on the bleachers, and zoomed towards the bleachers. As she ran up the steps of the bleachers, she tripped on one of the stairs and did a face plant on one of the other steps. Ouch! Yuki sat up and rubbed her forehead. Ow, that really hurt... Yuki smiled and did a half wave at Kiku.



Akane didn't respond when Yuki greeted her. I might scare her away or something... Akane sighed then realized something. Hey, I recognize her! I followed her to school this morning! I should probably thank her... For stalking her? Okay, maybe not. Maybe I should just say she has a... Good.. Sense of direction? No! That would be really creepy! SHUT UP, AKANE. YOU'RE HURTING MY HEAD. Why am I still arguing with myself-- SHUT UP!

Akane had been arguing with herself until she seen her Swim Team Leader and sighed. She's that weird, tough chick...

Uh... Hello there, Tsukino-san.

Hmm. So that's her name. Akane raised one hand, in a waving matter. Akane looked at Yuki when she was talking to her, and finally said something. "Yes." Akane watched as Yuki completely ignored her and ran off. Well fine then. Be that way.

Before Taura could say much to the two girls, Yuki sped off somewhere, leaving Taura alone with Akane. She had a bit of a shy, timid atmosphere to her and Taura gave her a bit of an icy glare.

"Yamada-san." was all Taura could say. Her stare only left Akane once while she got dressed in her gym clothes. After a quick change, Taura put her hand on Akane's shoulders.

"Do you have experience in swimming?" she asked in a fast tone.




Daichi could tell something was wrong with Kyoya as soon as they both entered the changing room. Others began to whisper and Daichi began to wonder if they were whispering about him or Kyoya. Not wanting to give away his sexuality, Daichi distanced himself away from his crush and started to talk to him in a completely different voice.

"I don't know. I'm glad though. I need to work out." said Daichi awkwardly. He never blurted out nonsense like this. A boy walked by and said good afternoon. Daichi said good afternoon back and began to change into his gym clothes.

"I can't stand gym class to tell you the truth. Even if I did used to be in track." Kyoya said, avoiding all the stares of other men.

"And didn't you just have a workout this morning?" Kyoya teased. He noticed how Daichi shifted once in ear shot and sight of people. 'Guess he doesn't want people to know he's gay then.' Kyoya thought. He understood completely. It's just he wasn't like that. He wasn't even gay. He was bi. Which in peoples eyes, was worse.

That was probably why people were always whispering around him. Because he practically flaunted who he was without a care in the world. People even treated his long hair like a symbol. Which in reality, it was just a thing everyone in the Nakazuki family did.

People are scared of what they don't understand. And that can classify as 90% of the male population of school.

Kiku closed her eyes as she leaned back a bit, enjoying a bit of silence and sun before the throngs of students would be arriving. She was snapped back to reality however by the sound of someone falling nearby. Her eyes darted open as she looked over at the source of the noise. Hayashi-san?... She quickly got up to her feet and moved over to her, her concern clear on her face despite the fact that Yuki seemed to be alright. "Ah! Are you okay? Do you need me to take you to the infirmary? Ah, but I don't know where that is." She spoke quickly and moved her hand to gently brush aside some of Yuki's hair to get a better look at her forehead. Why was she running up the stairs? That's dangerous, this girl needs to slow down... But I guess that's part of her charm.

Rei entered her classroom to find it empty. Where the heck did everyone go? A shiver went down her spine Wait... Did the zombie apocalypse finally happen?!

Rei sprinted through the building until she found a swarm of students all heading in the same direction. Well, almost the same direction. Some were heading towards where the girls change room was and some where heading to where the boys changing room was and some were going to the gym, dressed in their gym outfits.

She tapped on some random girl's shoulder.

"Excuse me, but what is going on?" Fear found it's way into Rei's voice as she added "Are we evacuating from a wave of zombies or something?"

The girl laughed. "No, there's a sport event happening. We were told to change and go to the field." Rei sighed in relief. I really need to stop watching zombie movies... "Why would we be dressing in our gym outfits if we're escaping, anyway?" The girl laughed.

Rei opened her mouth, but didn't say anything. She stormed away, an angry look displayed on her face. Hmph. And what does she know about zombies?

Then again... She did have a point... Rei ignored this thought and ran to the change room.

She entered the change room and found it filled with a bunch of other girls. She looked for Tei to see if the news reached her ears, but couldn't find her.

She quickly got changed and left for the field. Once she got there, Rei desperately tried to find Tei.

"Tei! Tei! TEI!!"

She wasn't paying attention and almost tripped over a girl who had fallen on the bleachers.

Rei gasped and managed to catch herself on yet another girl before she fell. Once Rei had regained her balance, the girl looked at her awkwardly and walked away, muttering something about being disrespectful under her breath.

"Are you okay?" She said to the girl she had tripped on, not sounding the least bit sorry at all.

____________________________________________


Tei poked her head in her classroom and found no one there. She gasped. Huh? Where did everyone go? Was today actually a Saturday and I didn't realize it?

Tei walked around the school. She stopped dead once she got to the field. Bunches of people were all sitting around in their gym uniforms, talking.

Tei, too shy to ask what had happened, ran into the change room and got in her gym outfit and ran back to the field. She walked around, confused.

I suppose maybe Rei knows what's going on,

Tei began to search for Rei. Knowing Rei, Tei thought she would think something far out there was happening, like an alien invasion. The thought of Rei having a mini freak out made Tei giggle a little.

She bumped into several people while trying to find her, each time saying "I am so sorry! Are you hurt?" Once she hit the bleachers with her foot and accidentally apologized.

She looked and looked but couldn't find Rei.

Oh well, I might as well sit and wait...

~~~~
OOC: I'm really sorry, this isn't one of my best posts... Bear with me though, it's late and I'm not thinking straight. >.< Oh, that wasn't meant to be rude!
~~~~

Ah! Are you okay? Do you need me to take you to the infirmary? Ah, but I don't know where that is.

Yuki laughed nervously. "I-I'm okay, Satomi-san!" However, Yuki didn't feel okay. There was a small scratch on Yuki's forehead, that was about to start bleeding. I'm so stupid, I come here to apologize to Satomi-san, and then I fall and she has to take care of me... Yuki looked at Kiku, a little embarrassed. "I'm sorry for ignoring you, Satomi-san..." Yuki quickly said, in order to change the subject. "I just... Knew that you wanted to know what I had to tell you." Yuki sighed. "But earlier, in order to now look so mean, I told you I had something to say. But I don't think I'm ready to tell you yet, Satomi-san." Yuki looked Kiku in the eyes. "Please don't take this offensively, it's just... I've never told anyone before." Yuki then realized that someone else had been there the whole time and she gasped and turned to her.

Yuki smiled awkwardly at her. OH NO! She totally just heard everything I said! Yuki laughed loudly and nervously. "Uh, yes! I'm fine! Thank you! You don't have to worry about me! I'm perfectly fine! You don't have to stick around, I'm just a big weirdo!" Yuki laughed loudly and nervously... Again.

Yamada-san.

"Eek!" Akane raised her hands in defense, and shut her eyes tightly. She stood there for a few moments, before realizing that she was now changing into her gym clothes. Akane blushed, because the girls in the change room around her were giving her a very strange look. Akane made a clicking sound with her tongue and rolled her eyes. What the hell? I could obviously beat her up if she tried anything... But she's so... Akane remember the icy glare she was giving her moments ago and shivered. ...Intimidating. She tried brushing it off and got changed in her gym clothes as well.

As Akane was putting her hair up in a high pony tail, Taura put a hand on her shoulder.

Do you have experience in swimming?

Akane blinked at Taura. "Of course I do." Akane tightened her pony tail and looked over at Taura. "Why else would I agree to joining the swim team?" Akane sweatdropped. Oh wait. I didn't agree to joining anything, you forced me.

Kiku sighed and placed her hands on her hips as Yuki began apologizing and explaining what had happened earlier. She gave a small smile as she responded, "Really, it's ok, I understand how you feel. You don't ever have to tell me if you don't want to... As long as you're happy I'm happy, got it?" She glanced over at the other girl who had showed up before turning her attention back to the scratch on Yuki's forehead, trying to put on a stern voice. "And no, you're not okay, it's gonna start bleeding soon. Hm..."

She took a look around the area in hopes of spotting a teacher who might be able to give her directions to the infirmary, but she would have no such luck. With a bit of a sigh she looked back to Yuki. "Well, c'mon, I guess we'll have to find the place ourselves. We need to at least get it cleaned up and stuff so you don't get an infection." She extended her hand towards her friend to help her up.

Before Daichi could answer, a boy came up to them. He had no idea who he was at all.
He didn't want to be rude,"I actually don't know what we're doing. And I'm not all to sure if Daichi-kun's ready yet."
All of that was laced with sweetness. His voice always did that with people he didn't know and didn't feel like teasing.

Miyako
Braidin g her hair she sighed giving into boredom at long last. She.knew ahead of time she'd probably end up hanging around in the choir room later.That is what she did most days anyway.
She released the braid into cascading curls and decided to leave her curls be.for now because she didn't want to make her haier. static or knotty .

Kaiko Ishigawa

Kaiko glanced back at the red headed boy sitting behind Aya all the while playfully clicking her tongue at that annoying something-you-should-know-but-won't-come-out feeling. She shrugged off the familiar ache, deciding it wasn't worth dwelling on and would come to her some time. She cracked a small smirk at the fellow red head's hard headedness about being made into the male class representative. The banter between the student and teacher was amusing, if not downright disrespectful. Once that was all settled and done with, after the red head tried to practically chuck his friend into the gutters-but failed, the teacher went straight into an interesting lecture.

The better half of the day went by rather slowly for the red head, but she couldn't necessarily argue considering that it was all a blur to her. With another ring of the bell, she just happened to snap out of it when students started to leave their desks. She lazily took out her own bento box, carefully unwrapped it from its silky handkerchief wrapping. Not even processing what she was putting into her mouth, though had enough sense to at least make sure it was food, she lifted her chopsticks into her mouth, chewed whatever she was eating, swallow, then repeat. She didn't exactly know why she was acting so automated, but she could guess that it had something to do with it being the first day of school. She knew somewhere deep inside her though that it was always like this. Last year, when all she had to depend on was her guts, intelligence, and some help with her natural smart-whipped vocabulary, she felt stuck; as if forever in a rut that she dug out herself. She glanced over at her newly acquainted friend who was almost acting like a vacuum and sucking in the food faster than she can keep track. Subconsciously, a smile formed on her face as she watched the auburn haired girl ravage what used to be her lunch.

An announcement snapped her out of her reverie and her smile formed into a smirk. If they were to go to the locker rooms to change, that only meant one thing. Gym. The class was always fun to Kaiko, it was just when she was sure she could possibly lose that she started to slack. Damn inferiority complex. The bell rang not too long afterwards, actually it was pretty quick, just enough for her to put her rewrapped bento back into her bag. People started pouring into the halls and Kaiko barely had enough time to grab her pack before Aya took a hold of her and they weaved through the crowd together.

The red head couldn't help but feel her face flush as the blood rushed to her cheeks. Her violet orbs glanced down at the hand that kept a firm grip around her own. She's never been used to any kind of skin-to-skin contact, heck when her own parents gave her a hug on her birthday, she just stood there, not knowing what to do with her hands at all. Her brothers also gave her occasional hugs, but it usual consisted of them smothering her. It's not like she didn't like it, but after mostly keeping to herself both at school and at home, she always felt rather strange with the concept. The pair burst into the locker room before separating to their own. Kaiko quickly changed into her new gym clothes before leaning on the locker beside her auburn friend's, all the while clipping her hair up. Aya then asked if she was ready to go.

"Yeah, let's go out to the back." Kaiko said, gesturing with a nod to the double doors that led to the back school yard. Once out in the fresh air, Kaiko once again felt as if she were in her element. With a quick stretch and crack of her knuckles, she gave a small challenging smirk to the auburn haired girl. "Wanna race around the track?" She knew it was a risk challenging someone that she didn't know when she had the worst inferiority complex known to herself, but she'd give it her all. While she knew Aya could most likely swim miles around her, the land was her element, being one of the best track runners in her middle school.

Really, it's ok, I understand how you feel. You don't ever have to tell me if you don't want to... As long as you're happy I'm happy, got it?

Yuki smiled and nodded at her friend. "Kay!~" Yuki sighed when Kiku noticed that she wasn't okay. After Kiku looked around for a bit, then finally held her hand out, Yuki realized she was still sitting on the steps and took her hand quickly. With the help of her friend, Yuki managed to stand up, but felt a little dizzy. "Th-Thanks." Yuki caught her balance and decided to walk down the steps, before she fell again.

At the bottom of the steps, Yuki waved goodbye to the girl with long purple hair and suggested, "Maybe we could go find Nakazuki-senpai and ask him for directions?"

(Why no one reply? :'[ )

---

---

Kiku kept close to Yuki as she made her way down the stairs, afraid she might fall again or something. They however made it to the bottom of the stairs safely.

"Maybe we could go find Nakazuki-senpai and ask him for directions?"

She tapped her chin in thought for a moment as she considered what Yuki had said, "Uh... Wouldn't he be at the boy's changing room though? I don't know that it would be such a great idea for two girls to be there, heh... I'm sure if we head inside we'll find a teacher or something." With that said she began to head back towards the school building, assuming Yuki was behind her. Luckily enough when they got to the doors they ran into a teacher, likely headed out to the field. With a quick question Kiku received some basic directions before the teacher went. "Well, doesn't sound too hard to find, shall we go?"

Uh... Wouldn't he be at the boy's changing room though? I don't know that it would be such a great idea for two girls to be there, heh... I'm sure if we head inside we'll find a teacher or something.

Yuki let out a small 'eek' and blushed. "No, no! You're completely right! We can't go in there--" Yuki smacked herself in the forehead and realized moments later that... Ouch, damn it! Yuki covered her mouth, even though she didn't actually say anything and blushed, realized that Kiku was already walking towards the school. She ran towards Kiku, even if her vision was slightly blurry.

When Yuki caught up to Kiku, she was getting directions from a teacher. I feel bad for missing this event, on the very first day... Yuki exhaled and nodded to Kiku, when she asked her question. "Let's hurry up and get there, so you don't end up being late for this gym event thingy, okay?" Yuki smiled at Kiku and placed her hands behind her back.

---

---

"Let's hurry up and get there, so you don't end up being late for this gym event thingy, okay?"

Kiku gave a nod and began to lead Yuki towards the infirmary, taking her time to make sure she didn't mess up the directions given to her. The infirmary wasn't too far nor was it hard to find. Kiku slid the door open when they arrived and looked around inside, it didn't seem that anyone was in at the moment. "Well... Guess the nurse isn't in right now... Here." She took Yuki's hand and lead her towards one of the beds. "Just take a seat here for now... I'll go look for something to clean that up with." She began to look around the room, rummaging through some drawers and cabinets to find some supplies, speaking up as she searched, "And, are you feeling alright? Not dizzy or light headed or anything? It didn't look too bad but it'd be bad if you got a concussion or something."

I hope I'm not creeping her out or anything by worrying so much... But I really do want to make she's okay, and well, if I'm in here I don't have to be out there doing that gym stuff.
