London, England

boo.

Once Dail left, Eliab took one last glance at Katherine before looking for a seat. Looks like you may not be the only one who has feelings for her! No problem! She does't know either of us that well! Just then, in the first row, Charles stood up with his hand waving, signaling for him to get over there. Immediately, the butler birskly walked to the seat spared for him.

"How'd it go, Eli?"

"Could have been better. She saw right through my attempts to hide my feelings for her."

"Doh!" Charles gave a playful punch to the shoulder. "Don't be so stiff! Give her some time! She'll warm up to you! I have no doubts!"

"You saw?"

"The whole thing, mate!"

Now that the man on stage was almost ready to give the announcements, the conversation had to end there. Give her some time... Of course! Love is patient! The Passage of Love. Eliab knew it like the back of his hand. He read it many times, he heard it at church back in Knoxville, and he never forgot it. He applied it wherever he went. Not in the romantic manner, but he applied it. This was the first time he used it as a reference to guide him in his pursuit of such love. He is a gentleman, he can afford to be patient. The only obstacle he saw would be his need to not appear vulnerable or weak, the reason for bottling up his emotions for so many years.

An excited smile graced Chamomiles face as she entered the auditorium and took her place next to a male student. She didn't dare to get close with the female students since they tend to make her feel... uncomfortable. Chamomile gazed through the place to make sure if there were any familiar faces around, to her fortune, there weren't.

She exhaled, closed her eyes and finally for the first time in two days she felt relaxed. Chamomile were just about to fall asleep when a male voice echoed through the hall.


(Truly really sorry for the short post, I'm really tired but had to get something done in time x'D)

Luthais Rae
--

“My name is Luthais Rae,” He responded and took the boys hand in his own, shaking it briefly before releasing it and resting his hands against his hips. Perhaps it seemed his luck had changed, and fate had presented him with that of which he desired; a master. “And I need a master, such as yourself,” He added and smiled down at the small boy. “It is nice to meet you Haru, you must be new here as well, if I am correct? If so, then allow me to show you the ways of this Academy, for I know it well.” Luthais shifted his gaze slightly and noticed a man entering the room, which could only mean things were about to being.

“Say, I think we best be taking our seats, Haru,” He said and quickly sat himself down on the seat behind him, doing so he also tugged on the boys arm and motioned for Haru to sit down at his side.

Haru smiled, barely containing his excitement at meeting someone new. "Nice to meet you too, Luthais," he beamed up at the older boy. "And yes, I'm new, and I'd be glad if you could help me out here." He was so bubbly, he almost started speaking in Japanese! It was an odd habit of his. He gladly took the seat next to Luthais and watched the tall man proceed through the auditorium. He was a little awestruck, for the man was at least four inches taller than his own father, but he looked about the same age. Haru had a certain fascination with tall people, particularly adults. His mother was rather small, and he found it funny how his parents' heights contrasted each other. He sat up straight almost on instinct and watched the man, his head tilted to the side slightly. Of course, that was how he always sat. Haru wrung his hands together, eager to kick off the school year. 

"You said you are a butler, right?" Charles had to whisper in case the announcements started, and he did not want to miss them. "You could of fooled me with how well dressed you are, mate!"

"Yes, I am!" Eliab's eyes were focused on the stage. It was one of those times when he felt the need to show respect for his elders. That was how he was raised in the Southern States.

"I also heard you are looking to work in agriculture! Tell you what: My mum owns a big landscape business which has clients all over the European Union! Rich, poor, you name it! I could tell mum you are wanting a career in a related field of your choice, and she can reserve an apprenticeship for you via one of her best employees! Of course, we have to see what you can do, first! We sign up for horticulture next year, work together in whatever is assigned in that class, and we'll see if you're man enough for the challenge! I'd be glad to have you as my butler, in the meantime! That way, I can keep an eye on you during the whole class that year! What do you say? We have a deal?"

The butler could not believe it. Charles actually heard that part of what he said to Katherine? Why not the whole conversation? The rich boy probably did, but wanted to hear his side of it to make sure he heard right, if that made sense. Regardless, he is giving him, of all other people, a chance at becoming an arborist? Eliab thanked the Lord before shaking Charles' hand.

"It's a deal!"

But wait! That still left one more thing: how is the butler going to be able to make up for the unwanted attention given to Katherine before it is too late, or will he? He could not think about it now. The announcements could come any second.

Headmaster Croisseux

The tall jet black haired male stood in the middle of the Auditorium, in front of a wooden podium, which had a microphone on it. He tapped the microphone to make sure it was on. "Eh-hem...A beautiful morning to all!

Let us start first by saying; Hello my name is Léon Croisseux, the Headmaster of this fine Boarding Academy. This will be my fifth year as Headmaster.

Good, now that I have introduced myself, I hope those of you who are naturally shy will boost your confidence, and give you a feeling of belonging, of being a family.
If we come to school every day and shake hands with our classmates, teachers, our guard, schoolmates we will have made a pleasant start of our day in school. I encourage the teachers and everybody to do the same. A simple good morning, a smile, a little hello does not cost anything but gains a lot. We are all beautiful when we smile.

Welcome to the Masuta Academy. We are happy that you have chosen us in your quest for formative or basic education. Your parents know how important education is and that is why you are here, to learn, to experience, to equip you with knowledge and prepare your future, your destiny.

You and Masuta Academy are now partners. It is a mutual relationship and we as the new Administrators of Masuta Academy will try to meet our obligations and we expect the same from you students. Our success is our working together to achieve this goal. WE MUST NOT FAIL!

Let me also take this opportunity to remind you to stay safe and healthy. I strongly recommend that you take preventive measures i.e. washing your hands thoroughly, if you sneeze use the side of your elbows and not in your hands, and if you are sick please stay in your dorm, maybe call the school’s nurse to check on you, and recuperate as it may infect your classmates, too. We will also continue to introduce your morning exercises to keep you fit physically and mentally.

Another reminder is about SECURITY. Please be wary and avoid going with strangers. Period! Lately there have been incidents of kidnappings, and also cases of children being taken away and their kidneys, and other organs are removed. These are scary and dangerous times indeed. If you are in a situation, the best thing is to run away, make loud noises, and attract attention to discourage would be kidnapper or attacker.

To everyone, welcome to Masuta Academy. This day promises a good beginning in our lives and I pray that the Divine Providence be with us this school year." Léon greeted everyone present, as he read his welcoming speech. He flipped through the paper, then stopped at a light blue page.

"Now without further ado, The matter at hand is finding yourself a maid or butler if you are a master or mistress, and vice versa. You have until the end of the day to find yourself a partner. If you don't, please report to me in my office and I will take care of the situation." Léon told the students, fixing the papers by tapping them against the podium.

"Now if you'll excuse me, I'll be heading back to my office. You all may leave. Please explore the campus, find your dorm, and don't forget to find yourself a partner as well. Classes will start up tomorrow. In the acceptance letter you all received, you should have your class schedule and your dorm room number. Male dormitories are in the West wing. Female dormitories are in the East wing." When he was finished talking, Léon took his papers, and exited the Auditorium.

~~

Katherine

Katherine knew the male looked familiar! Léon Croisseux...Ugh, that name gave her chills. That man once tried to steal her father's AND mother's company away from them. He tried for many years and he even threatened her to convince her father to sell his company. I can't believe he's going to be my Headmaster... She thought, as she just glared at the Headmaster.

Kat absolutely did not like knowing that Léon Croisseux will be her Headmaster for the next 3 years. "What joy..." She softly spoke out loud, rolling her eyes. She barley even payed any attention to what he was saying, rather she was just staring down at her backpack, daydreaming.

She wasn't one to dislike people, but Léon was one of the very few that she did't enjoy knowing was around. After Léon left the Auditorium, Katherine lifted her head up, and looked around. "Oh look, he's gone..." She stood up, grabbing her backpack, and flung it over her right shoulder.

Kat walked down from the bleachers, onto the Auditorium floor. She stood there for a few seconds, seeing other students take out their letters, so she did the same. "Hmm, since I already know where my dorm is...I guess I'll just explore the campus then." She told herself, placing the letter back into her backpack.

Independence rose silently when the, he believed, French headmaster exited the Auditorium. He sighed, walking down the bleaches with his bag gripped in his gloved hands, that is, until his phone went off and echoed around the Auditorium. Thank god no teachers were in here, funny thing is, his ringtone was quite...odd.

"AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH! MUMSY IS CALLINGGGGGG!"

His ringtone was a male screaming on top of his lungs about his mumsy, and to be honest, Independence almost shrieked like a female when it went off. Quickly throwing off his bag in reaction, it landed on a spot in the bleachers and he sort of stood there, nearly frozen to death. God, he forgot about his phone! "Bloody hell..." Independence's cheeks went a bright red. It's still morning and his first day has gone completely out of whack. Scurrying off quickly to grab his bag, he scooped it up and stared at the people who were staring at him, and he rose his left arm to cover his eyes. "Sorry," he murmured, running off towards the exit, nearly tripping over his long cloak but catching himself by falling against the wall. Mornings sucked. Really.

Once he got into the hallway, he leaned against the wall, running a hand through his blonde locks of hair as he answered the phone. "Yes, mother?" He sighed, and he pulled the phone away when Payton decided to scream. "HOW ARE YOU DOING DEAR?! IS IT FUN?! HAVE YOU MADE ANY FRIENDS?! TELL ME! DID YOU FIND A MASTER?"

Independence shuddered, and he moaned. "Calm down. I'm fine. It's kind of embarrassing. No, I haven't made any yet I don't think. I'll find a master in time." There was a quiet, awkward silence between the piece of technology, until it was broken with a giggle, coming from Payton. The younger male sort of twitched and breathed in shakily. "You must be hyper." "I can't wait for you to get a master." "Thanks, ma. I appreciate that. Wait, one second."

The male twitched when pulled the phone away when a small group of students walked by, 4 of them. They all must have found their matches, and they were staring at him as if they were some freak. He even heard one of them mutter under their breath about his mother. Independence's hands flexed tensely as he growled.

"It's life. I don't choose my parents, so if you have a problem, ask the spirits, honey." Alright! Way to get stressed out, Independence! Averting his gaze from the group of students, he stared at the wall in silence, thinking to himself. Gazing down at his phone, he brought it up to his ear and muttered. "I've got to go. Bye, I will call you later." Hanging up, he kind of stood there before sliding down to a sitting position, panting from intense frustration and anxiety.

"You've got to be kidding me. It's just the first day and it sucks so far."

"This is ridiculous, Charles! First, we walk into the aftermath of what happened to Katherine, and another person's already being picked on! I'm glad my sister did not enroll here!"

"I'm going in with you, for this, Eliab! At least, no girl is involved! Makes things easier for us!"

"Should not matter, sir!" Eliab cleared his throat and whistled for the four boys' attention. "I don't see why you should pick on someone of a different upbringing, fellas. Have you heard of the phrase, 'Love thy neighbor', if you believe in the Lord?"

"Yeah, even if I'm an atheist, myself!" Charles was acting tough, at this point. "So why don't you morons make like a banana and split before this yankie pal of mine, here..."

"Charles! You're not helping by making threats! Didn't we just see the aftermath of whatever happened to Katherine? Besides, I don't fight!"

"Point taken, mate!" The master did not lose his demeanor, despite agreeing with his butler. "Still, you guys must have something better to do than to pick on him! Come on! I know London like the back of my hand! We can all be friends, here! What do you say?"

Eventually, the four boys gave up and left in annoyance. Eliab then gave the one picked on a pat on the shoulder.

"It's hard when people don't understand you. My grandfather is Israeli, I would know what such persecution feels like. Granted, I'm a Christian, but, still..." Before any response could come, the butler smiled and added, "Don't Worry! I'm not homophobic! I was not raised to hate!"

Luthais Rae
--

Luthais had managed to keep awake through the headmasters looooooooooong speech, just. His attention span was usual short, and decreasing by the days. However he was a nag for detail and neatness, despite his carefree nature. When the man took his leave Luthais sat up and turned to Haru, smiling. “Well, now that’s over with you want to explore the grounds?” He asked quietly and leaned in closer to the boy. "We don’t have classes today so it would ideal to find your bearings quickly, and then things wont seem so daunting,” He laughed a little. “Besides, ain’t got nothing better to do.”

--
Daileass Taveon
--

Dail quietly listened as the man on stage talked, obviously proving his high status within this Academy, which was expected seeing as this man was their headmaster. Léon Croisseux, that was his name. Dail made sure to have it memorized for any possible future needs of obtaining it. As his words trailed on he keenly took in the dark haired individuals words, at first been actively awake, though nearing the end his eyes were almost falling together. It was a lengthy speech, and Dail never did good when having to sit for so long. However though, it quickly came to an end as he noticed the man leaving, which could only mean his time was done and they were free to do as they wished. But then, what would Dail do?

“I still have no master, nor a mistress to be partnered with,” He muttered quietly to himself whilst in the mist of his thoughts. It was likely seeming he’d be at the headmasters office later today, with no authority to call his own, nor having a partner to continue life with. If anything, it was embarrassing.

He rose from his chair and watched as few other students set about their days, some exploring their dorms while others ventured about the Academy. Either way he was still lost, and didn’t have a dorm as he lived close by, thankfully.

Dammit. Everyone seems so confident and know where their going!

Dail hated when others understood something he didn’t, it often made him feel stupid or weird, as if he was left out of something that was important. It didn’t help when he saw others partnering up so quickly either, and his heart began to beat a little faster as his anxiety began to settle in. Just then, though, his eyes caught sight of a familiar face which eased his frantic nature a little.

“Katherine! Kath--” He yipped before stumbling down a few steps. “Kaaaaatheriiiiiinnneeeee!”

He hopped down the last step before walking over, calmly, to the girl. He didn’t want to scare her off, well, not so much. “D-Do you know where your going?” The boy asked with a slight stutter. “I-I mean I don’t really, and, well, was going to look around a little.”

--
Ackley Bee
--

Ackley stood up slowly from his seat once the headmaster had left, seeing this his opportunity to explore and perhaps find his dorm. Though he had no clue where anything was, nor who was who, and wasn’t really one to ask for help. He didn’t need any, so to say. Well, no, that was a lie. Ackley was very lost though feared the thought of talking to other students, especially as so many seemed rather ruthless and cold, and not many helped that girl earlier. What would happen if he fell? Would people laugh?

He shuddered. Who cares I won’t trip! Hopefully.

Shaking off his slight worry the boy slowly ventured down the stairs, making sure not to fall in the process, before making his way out of the Auditorium and deciding to find his dorm.

Katherine turned around, facing the bleachers, when she heard her name being called. Oh, it's him...the one for earlier... She watched the blonde haired boy as he stumbled down a few steps. What was his name again? Analyzing the boy walking over to her, the name finally clicked. "Oh, hi Daileass." She smiled sweetly, looking up at the much taller male.

“D-Do you know where your going?” The boy asked with a slight stutter. Kat thought for a moment. "Well, not really. I only know how to get to my dorm. That's pretty much it." “I-I mean I don’t really, and, well, was going to look around a little.” Oh, I get it! "So you were wondering if I could show you around, right?" She questioned, her head tilted ti the side a bit. "Sadly, I don't know where a lot of things are. I just know where the two dormitories are and where the cafeteria is." She told Dail, swaying up and down on her heels.

Haru
Throughout the speech, Haru had taken to spacing out and looking around. The large room was very decorative, and almost matched his own house in terms of how ornate and elaborate it was. He only caught a little bit of what the man said, but he was sure it wasn’t that important anyhow. Once it was over, and Luthais spoke to him, he hopped out of his seat immediately and hopped up and down a few times, large brown eyes alight with glee. “Okay, okay!” he exclaimed as he stopped hopping. “Lead the way!” he said, giggling.

--
Luthais Rae
--

Luthais smiled as the boy seemed eager to explore, to such an extent he warmly smiled down at the boy and secretly awed over his large eyes. “I am glad you are eager, so we best get going,” He said and got to his feet promptly, before turning and pointed to the exit door. “Alrighty, and is there anywhere in particular your wanting to see? Anywhere you’ve heard of that triggers your interest?” Luthais questioned before taking the lead and prepared to guide the boy safely down the steps, for he was a little short and needed the help, or at least Luthais assumed, and even hoped.

--
Daileass Taveon
--

“Actually no, girlie,” Dail replied. “I was merely enquiring if you knew where you were going, for I am going to go exploring, that is all,” As if he needed a girl to show him around? Pfft. Dail would never live it down, personally. For he was a boy of principle, well, the most part for his own morals. “I am sorry if I troubled you, and must be going. For I cannot waste time in finding my partner, and I need to know this Academy like the back of my hand, so I suppose I’ll say my goodbyes,” He paused for a moment and just smiled. “Goodbye.”

Dail lightly passed by the girl before heading out of the auditorium, as he really was not one to waste time, especially on girls. He didn’t tend to care for such matters, nor desired much of a romance with anyone. If anything, Dail functioned solo.

When the headmaster finally stepped forward at the podium he lightly tapped the microphone before he spoke, his voice was pleasant and smooth. He was most likely a stuck up rich kid as a child, an heir who eventually had nothing but this school she was stuck in, the brunette mused as she shifted her stormy grey eyes to look over at the large group of students. They were all cheerful in appearance, some quietly talking but most were quietly listening to their new headmaster who would be heading their education for the next.. Well, however long this school kept a person 'captive' for.

Suddenly her attention was drawn back to the man at the podium, his next words having grabbed her entire attention and making her sit up straighter with her expression becoming even more neutral than ever.

" Now without further ado, the matter at hand is finding yourself a maid or butler if you are a master or mistress, and vice versa. You have until the end of the day to find yourself a partner. If you don't, please report to me in my office and I will take care of the situation."

The end of the day? Was this man insane? Rina felt her annoyance build within her as he dismissed the students, the heiress remaining in her seat to ponder his words. She had known she needed to find a maid, or a butler even, but by the end of the day?! The Japanese girl, for that what she considered herself, had no idea what to think to this other than she'd better get working on her social skills.. Unless she could just walk up to a random person and ask them to be her butler or maid.. That would work too, wouldn't it?

In all her thoughts, Rina nearly missed the outburst of a male voice screeching but she assumed that would have been impossible either way. The voice was rather loud and obnoxious, after all.

She glanced up from where her gaze had fallen, the back of the seat in front of herself in case you'd been wondering, to see a tall blonde male down near the stage who was currently flinging his bag off to the side. She could see his cheeks grow rather red, even from the distance between them, and stood as he retrieved his bag and sprinted from the room.

As Rina slowly made her own way out the doors of the Auditorium she couldn't help the slight smirk that spread over her lips, her amusement showing in her typical odd way, as she came across the male sitting on the floor and breathing heavily as though he'd just run a marathon.

" You've got to be kidding me. It's just the first day and it sucks so far."

His voice was quiet and full of frustration to which Rina felt a little guilty over secretly laughing about the outburst from mere minutes ago. She stepped over to him only to stop a few feet from him, her eyes thoughtful even as her expression showed nothing else while looking at him. Before she could stop herself Rina spoke, her own voice rather quiet as she regarded the male. There was no better time than the present to socialize, or so her mother had a tendency to say.

" I'm sure it will only get better," she murmured before raising her voice so it would be a bit easier to hear. " I'm Rina, by the way, Rina Kobayashi." The Japanese teenager smiled slightly, rather small but noticeable all the same, before gesturing to Independence and his place on the ground. " Is the floor comfortable?"

Haru
Haru accepted Luthais’ help down the stairs. He didn’t trust himself just then to start skipping down them. He looked up at Luthais, smile gone, replaced by a look of deep thought. Where did he want to go? He blinked twice, and then smiled softly. “Um… how about the library?” Haru may have been a livewire, but he had a thing for reading. That is, whenever he settled down, or whenever he was around his family and couldn’t bounce off the walls like he wanted. He laughed softly. “I wanna check it out for a bit.”

“Actually no, girlie,” Dail replied. “I was merely enquiring if you knew where you were going, for I am going to go exploring, that is all,” Katherine was a bit shocked by Daileass's response, she thought he was nice, but the way he talked, so abruptly, she felt like she was wrong. Kat was only trying to be kind to the boy, but whatever. "Well, I'm sorry I misunderstood you, for I was just trying to be of help." She rolled her eyes, fixing her backpack strap on her right shoulder.

“I am sorry if I troubled you, and must be going. For I cannot waste time in finding my partner, and I need to know this Academy like the back of my hand, so I suppose I’ll say my goodbyes,” He paused for a moment and just smiled. Troubled me? No, I guess I'm the one troubling you... Katherine thought, turning around on her heals, until she faced the opposite of Dail. Before she left, Kat heard Dail's voice once more. “Goodbye.” Katherine was quiet for a little, then she finally said her farewell. “Goodbye to you as well...” Her voice was soft, quiet, a hint of disappointment was in her speech too.

With that being said, Kat made her way through the large crowd of students exiting the Auditorium. She was a bit hungry, as she forgot to eat breakfast before she went to the assembly. She headed for the cafeteria, it was about 2:15 in the afternoon. Lunch had already passed and dinner was still a few hours away. Maybe she'll just grab a snack or two.

((Sorry, for some reason my post was posted twice...))

How horrible, if Chamomile didn't find a partner by the end of the day she would have to visit that spooky french headmaster. Chamomile started to feel useless as she walked through the exit, she didn't know anything about this place! She looked around and noticed that almost everyone had found someone to talk to, "It has to be My hair" Chamomile sighed.

(sorry for the weird post, I'm writing this on my iPhone ^^)

Luthais Rae

“The library, huh?” Luthais questioned in an amusing way. “You some sorta bookworm type? Not that I mind, you know, just that’s the kind of people you’d find in a library,” Not that Luthais would overly know who you’d find in a library, as he wasn’t exactly a member of the place. Not that he had anything against it, he just… hadn’t found the time to properly go there, until now that was. “No worries, I know where it is. We just got to go up some stairs, make some turns and go down a hall. Sounds simple, right?” He teased and looked to the smaller boy. “Just be careful went leaving this place, there’s a lot of people leaving.”

For a little safety measure Luthais took hold of the boys hand, as he didn’t want him getting lost, nor trampled on, if that should ever happen.

Daileass Taveon

Dammit. You idiot of an idiot!

Dail had not gotten far from the auditorium before his mind began pestering him, again. As he’d let his odd bent emotions drive his mind, and no less speak ill to the sweet girl. Dammit. He didn’t like how he handled the situation, nor could he let it lay like that. Well, maybe he could’ve, but since it was his first day he felt this need to get everything right, and not to mention Dail went out of his way to help that girl before, and therefore he should’ve realized she was not one to push away in fear of being intimidated.

He was outside in the hall as students left the auditorium, one of them being Katherine as he watched her pass by and not even notice him, with good reason. However, all matters aside an apology was due and Dail would need to beg his way into the girls forgiveness, maybe. And with that in mind he decided to fall her, though seeming a bit creepy to do so, he did it anyway and took her trail into the cafeteria, where he spotted her standing.

Perfect.

“Katherine, wait,” He called, a hint of desperation evident in his voice. “Please…”

Dail didn’t want to seem needy nor desperate, though he was, in a sense. Guilt racked his mind terribly and to have this on his mind was something else, mostly as the girl did not deserve it.

“Look, I’m sorry. I misunderstood you, alright…” He paused briefly. “I mean, you were trying to be nice and I… reacted badly, I know, don’t nag me on that issue. But, yes, I’m sorry.”

He fell silent for a moment and looked to the girl, awaiting her answer.

“But,” He broken his momentary silence. “Let me make it up to you or something?”

Haru
As they made their way to the library, Haru made sure to keep a secure grip on Luthais' hand and keep close to the boy, for crowds of people sort of... freaked him out. A lot. He was terrible in crowds. They all but terrified the boy. It was mainly because of how small he was, and how prone to getting lost he was. But another part was just the people in general. They tended to stare at him. Haru, easily embarrassed, tried to avoid crowds as much as possible. But, he was going to try to appear as confident as possible. Even if he was holding someone's hand. 

So he disregarded the stares, keeping focused on the ground ahead of him. Every so often, he lifted his eyes to glance up at Luthais, just... because. "Well," he said. "I guess I'm a bookworm. Reading's good when there's nothing better to do."

“Katherine, wait,” A familiar male called out to her, as there was a hint of desperation noticeable in his tone of voice. Katherine turned around, her short wavy dark honey caramel brown hair twirled along with her. She blinked her big, bright, light sky blue eyes, seeing that Daileass was the one who called her name. Placing her hands behind her back, Kat made her way over to him, stopping right in front of him. "Yes?" She asked, still a bit peeved at what he said to her earlier.

What does he want? Well, I'll be nice and see what he has to say. Kat thought, as she heard Dail's voice again. “Look, I’m sorry. I misunderstood you, alright…” He paused briefly. “I mean, you were trying to be nice and I… reacted badly, I know, don’t nag me on that issue. But, yes, I’m sorry.” Kat wondered over what to say for quite awhile, when she got what she wanted to say, Daileass has spoken once more. “But,” He broken the brief silence. “Let me make it up to you or something?” Kat was still quiet, then she finally spoke. "It's okay, I forgive you. It was just a misunderstanding, that's all." A small smile formed, but you could tell that she was still a little hurt.

"Well..." Katherine pondered about how Dail can make it up to her. "How about...." She paused for a moment, as she was not one to hold grudges for very long nor could she stay mad at anyone. Kat was also one not to serve harsh punishments. "How about you become my butler...Since you are looking for a mistress, or maser, and I prefer to look for a butler." She told Daileass, as her Finnish accent came through. There was a sweet and gentle smile that rested on her lips, as she looked at him with such kindhearted light sky blue eyes.

Charles and Eliab jerked their heads in the direction of the girl who called herself Rina. It looked like there were more caring people in school than they thought. Either way, her coming in to assist the boy that was picked on was their cue to leave, satisfied with the fact she would take over from there.

"He's in good hands!" Charles grinned a little.

"I think so! You up for a bit of pitching and batting, baseball style? It's similar to cricket! I got the equipment! We just need to find a fence and be far enough so nobody gets hit when either of us happens to get a piece of any of the throws!"

"You're on, mate!"

Eliab chuckled."Hits not including foul balls and strike-outs count as one point! First to five points wins!"

The butler knew things would be at least a little rough at the Academy, though he never counted on his sister, Rebecca, enrolling. She might not be able to handle a bunch of pressure from being bossed around. However, if that was the price she had pay just to spend some time with her brother, she thought that worth it. What was the problem, then? The answer is simple: she did not have a master or mistress, yet. When she overheard a green-haired girl sigh about not having anyone to talk to, the impulsive maid saw that as the perfect opportunity. She immediately went up to her, whistling once.

Her Southern (American) accent was obvious as she spoke. "Excuse me, ma'am! Do you know anyone who needs a maid? I've been trying to find a mistress or master all day! I bet my brother already found his, knowing him!"

Chamomile turned around when she heard a whistle calling to someone, me? The girl who stood in front of Chamomile was around 2 inches shorter than her and completely gorgeous. She stood quietly as the girl started talking. ''Excuse me, ma'am! Do you know anyone who needs a maid? I've been trying to find a mistress or master all day! I bet my brother aldready found his, knowing him!'', the young girl spoke with an clear southern accent.

Chamomile hestitated at first, she didn't know how to comunicate with females, but the thought of having to visit the headmasters office made her think twice. ''How fitting, I'm actually looking for a maid myself'' she smiled gently and reached out her hand, ''I'm Chamomile Speculi, pleasure to meet you''.
