Snippet #2706556

Still in the Damned Cafeteria

"Who?" Wynn asked quizzically. Those were two names he was not all that familiar with.

"Who? I swear we told you about those two," Mauve turned to Milk and Walnut scratching her head as she did so. "We did, didn't we?"

"Not like it matters if we did anyway," Almond laughed dryly. "I'm pretty sure the lil' goofball won't forget them after he actually meets them. They're quite the imposing duo." He turned to the two women he was referring to. "I hope that wasn't too rude?"

"I hazard to say I would even care if it was." The taller of the two women said rather flatly. Apart from her clear beauty, her blood red hair was tied in a neat pony tail, accented by a rather bright golden tiara sitting on her head. She smirked at Almond with little sympathy. "I hope I wasn't too rude?"

All the Leon's laughed at the statement bar Almond, who turned away in mock indignation. "Touche you uppity...."

"ANYWAY!" Mauve exclaimed covering up Almond's insult, knowing how Mikasuki's temper could be. "So Kitten," He smiled at Wynn's obviously embarrassed face each time he said the "k" word. "This lanky mass of wit, culture and enormous ego is Mikasuki Coeur de Lion, or Ice Queen if you don't know her too well. Probably one of the strongest students in the school right now." Wynn whistled in an impressed manner.

T'wulf seemed taken aback by the name of the new rival. "You're not related to Raven Coeur de Lion, are you?" She asked in surprise. Catching the intrigue of the rest of her team.

"Sadly." Mikasuki answered. "I am assuming you have had the misfortune of meeting the faliure I am ashamed to call a brother?"

The four of them nodded their heads almost in sync with each other, rather surprised by Mikasuki's love of her brother.

Regalia was the first to formally interact with Mikasuki from PWTR. "Regalia Kitsu," She outstreched her hand for Mikasuki to shake, to little success as Mikasuki just looked down her nose at her junior. "Pleased to meet you I guess." Regalia said rather timidly after the rather rude display. Mauve quickly placed an arm over Regalia's shoudler. "Don't take any notice of her, she's just an ass when it comes to being human." Wynn started laughing.

"What is so funny whelp?" Mikasuki remarked in a snide tone, however it did little to stem Wynn's laughter. "You are lucky you are Mauve's sister or I would silence you now." Mikasuki remarked darkly only to the laughter of the surrounding group of students.

"Um Mikasuki, you know Wynn is a boy right?" Walnut asked in a rather lighthearted manner, only to wither a little under her ensuing stare.

"You can believe what you like. I'm sure he will reach puberty soon." Mikasuki retorted in a rather flat manner to hide her embarrassment. Rasberry and Mauve began laughing uproariously. Wynn looked at Mikasuki in an over-dramatic display of mock horror causing PWTR to begin laughing again.

Mauve turned to the shorter girl standing next to Mikasuki. Her long silver hair and dearstalker hat (Just think Sherlock Holmes) being the most notable aspects of her appearance. Her slight frame seemed out of place among the larger and stockier second years. Even Mikasuki seamed to have more meat on her than the other girl. "And this string bean is Silver Lucifer. As you may have guessed from the surname, she is Kamar's little sister." Wynn could not have even begun to look more excited. "She also happens to be the leader of our team."

"What's Kamar like at home? Come on tell me, tell me, tell me!" Wynn seemed to be literally teleporting around Silver purely out of sheer excitement. It was not until Almond grabbed him by the collar was anyone actually able to keep their eyes focused on him.

"Sorry about that Silver." Milk apologized on her little brother's behalf. "He tend's to get excited over things like that."

Silver merely nodded at Milk before speaking in a rather methodically calm manner. "I know." Milk just raised her hands while Raspberry began chuckling at her comment.

"You should know that she would know by now Milk. She always knows all there is to know about someone before they even know that she knows....Mmph" Raspberry's mouth was promptly covered by Silver who sighed at her teammate's display of wordplay. Raspberry kept talking underneath her hand.

"If you are going to open your trap, engage your brain if you could." Silver reprimanded calmly, allowing Raspberry to finally breath again..and continue talking until Mauve slapped her lightly on the back of her head.

"What do you mean she always knows?" Phen asked, quite perplexed by Raspberry's choice of words. She was met with yet another bout of giggling from Mauve.

"That would spoil the fun." She said with a quick wink.

In the ensuing silence that followed, all eyes turned to Mikasuki who began striding towards where Team IVRY were sitting. T'wulf placed a hand next to Wynn's ear and began to whisper. "I think IVRY might just be in some trouble now." Wynn kept his eyes locked on the group with an eerily large smile creeping on his lips. He turned to T'wulf.

"Got any popcorn?"

Team IVRY's Table

Vi plonked herself down ruffly into her seat next to Indu, visibly irritated. Indu looked at her and opened her mouth to speak, however Raven beat her there.

"I swear you're one mission in life is to make us look bad." Raven laughed, his ego and self confidence almost overflowing at this point. "How many times is it now that you've been shown up in front of a group of people?"

"Four." Yale answered before returning to his tea.

"Yes four...wait you speak?" Raven turned to Yale who finished his tea with a final gulp and began pouring himself another cup from the steel tea pot lying on the table, completely ignoring Raven.

"Anyhow, four times. If it happens again..." Raven started before he was interrupted by a furious Viridian.

"Pick your next words very carefully." She said, biting back her anger as much as she could as she stared at Raven, her hands turning white as she clenched her fist. "Because if I don't like what you say, I'm going to...argh fuck!" Viridian yelled as Indu jabbed her between her right ribs sharply, somehow calming her down.

"I would prefer it if you could go more than five minutes without trying to fight someone." Indu spoke in a rather reprimanding tone. "If I am honest Viridian, it is getting rather tedious." Vi looked at Indu angrily, but seeing the look in Indu's eyes, thought better of it.

She sighed. "I don't wanna admit it but you have a point." Vi jabbed a fork into her breakfast consisting of pancakes and bacon and began eating as quickly as she could manage.

"Oh so the big bad thug is taking order...OWWW!" Raven exclaimed as Vi slammed her left fist onto Raven's hand to shut him up.

"You are still as big a disappointment as I remember, my brother." A voice came from behind Raven, but one he knew all too well. Distinctly feminine and about as pompous as he could remember. Racen turned to find his older sister, Mikasuki staring down at him.

"Oh fuck..." Raven began before Mikasuki placed a none to gentle hand on his shoulder, keeping him from his planned escape. Indu looked up at her, as did Viridian. Yale made a glance at her but then returned to his tea.

"It has definitely been a while Miss Coeur de Lion." Indu said with a bob of her head. "It is a pleasure to see you again."

"Hey no need to be courteous to this..." Raven began but then found himself wincing into silence as Mikasuki's hand dug into his shoulder just a little bit more.

"Ah so I assume you are my brother's leader, Indu?" Mikasuki asked in mock inquisitiveness. "That would explain why he has not began to behave...or the fact that your team is running amok around the school already, mainly thanks to that neanderthal sitting next to you." Mikasuki has a very sharp tongue. Sharp enough to even grind against Indu's tether.

"I would prefer it if you remove your hand from my teammate's arm and while you are at it, maybe curbing your tongue would be the next thing you could do." She said icily. Vi at this point had put down her fork and began cracking her knuckles.

"I hate to have to agree with her, but you're really starting to rub me the wrong way bitch." Vi stood up along with Indu. Mikasuki just smiled coldly and released her hand from Raven's shoulder.

"I would be careful threatening me in future. As my little brother can tell you, I don't play nice." Mikasuki's voice was laden in malicious intent as she began walking away from the team back to her her own. "The way you are all now, you would not even last 2 minutes with Mauve's brother's team. If it was me you fought, you would not reach 20 seconds." She paced off, not even looking back.

Vi looked at Raven, who was rubbing his probably now bruised shoulder. "You know, I never thought I'd feel sorry for you but...damn." She remarked as she returned to what little of her plate of food remained.

"She is not exactly the most polite person I have ever met." Indu said as she sat back down and played with her empty tea cup. "You have my sympathy Raven."

"I know this might be a little out of character but...thanks." He said with a sigh. "Anyway can we get back to hating each other's guts?" He asked sarcastically.

"Well maybe after our next lesson. We have Mr Quinton apparently. However it appears there is no information on what we will be studying in his lesson." Indu seemed perplexed at the blank space next to the lesson schedule.

"How long do we have?" Viridian asked unceremoniously through a mouthful of food.

"About 10 minutes...the journey will take 5 apparently." Indu answered.

"DAMN IT, I DIDN'T GET TO FINISH MY BREAKFAST!" Raven shouted aloud as he began to stuff toast into his mouth as fast as he could before he had to leave.
