Footsteps followed her as she walked away. The blonde guy had not taken her slap well, as expected. It was the best she could do to ignore it. Evangeline had made her first impression, though it was not the one she’d hope to leave. She’d hope to make allies- to have friends. It felt weird to only have to account for oneself, especially if one was normally very altruistic.

Suddenly, she felt someone bump into her. Evangeline turned to see a somewhat reticent young woman with long, dark hair step back.

“I’m sorry…” she said with a flat tone, her hair covering most of her face. Evangeline tilted her head to the side like a confused dog. Moments later, though, both she and the younger girl were greeted by solemn looking fellow with spiked rust-colored hair. He patted the other girl’s shoulder before moving on.

Eva opened her mouth to reply to the quiet girl but was stopped dead in her tracks by goings on just down the hall. The Shadow made yet another appearance, only this time he (could one call it a he? It could be a she for all Eva knew…) seemed thoroughly pissed off. It pulled the dramatic blonde man into the ground, never to be seen again. “Let this be a warning to you all. If you choose to act of character or make a spectacle of yourself you will risk losing your chance at greatness. I only desire those who take this seriously and are willing to do their all to win."

Only those who are willing to give their all to win, huh?’ Evangeline pondered this a moment. She had no intention of winning, only to survive. That, and to thwart those of ill-intention; she refused to let someone like that further corrupt Yecenia’s world. A young man with black hair sat down next to the shy girl. Evangeline figured the girl was fine and left her be. She’d said enough already, that was for sure.

What was I thinking, yelling at everyone like that?’ She’d been trying to sound more sensible, but in the end her irritation at that emotional blonde guy got the best of her. At least she had a year to rectify the impression she’d left in her would-be comrades if she so chose to. It might be better to maintain it until she knew who her allies were…

She heard the booming voice of Tsuyoi down the hall, coming this way, with Grudder not too far behind. They probably wouldn’t appreciate the comment she gave as she left. Evangeline had no intention of furthering hatred in any one of these people, she figured it’d be best for her to get a move one. The blonde turned around to see the melancholy man who’d greeted her before. She nodded to him as she passed, hearing him introduce himself as Kain Abel to those that remained.

Evangeline stopped and wondered whether she should stop being antisocial and return to the group. After all, she’d be spending a year with these people. Didn’t it make sense for her to get to know them. In the very least, it would help her in combat. Was that the best reason for going back? Boy, was she out of her element, here. What felt natural was for her to return to the forming group, so return she did.

"Curious events, huh?" Abel spoke. Shortly after, another girl identified herself as ‘Raven’. The guy sitting next to the shy girl responded.

"So how do you all feel about this contest, though be weary of your words." Oto inquired.

“Curious is an understatement.” Evangeline gave a slight smirk as she walked up and replied naturally- nodding to Abel to indicate her reference to his comment, “While we’re introducing ourselves, I’m Evangeline. Sorry about yelling, earlier. Lack of common sense bothers my inner mom.” She shrugged a bit with a flat, sarcastic look on her face.

"I'm not one to live in fear. Anyways, that shadow can't expect us to be quiet and acquiescent. We are the strong in spirit, after all." Evangeline put a hand on her hip. "In the very least, we should be safe so long as we don't badmouth it."
