Part 1

Narrator:"It's been nearly a full month since the beginning of classes at the Yukojiin, Chikara Koko, and finally, a character who makes rare appearances in the primary story, returns with his own side story; King's Recital."

Stepping off the train which connects the floor of the Yukojiin to the rest of the city, Oscar takes a deep breath which he can feel vibrate his body as his lungs still haven't fully healed from his unexpected time as sea, which he knows he should keep to himself, else be placed into a government held quarantine. The effects of the ocean have been mostly dappened through his own hand after spending most of his time awake since we last saw him studying and discovering the best ways to heal, along with the help of the large L.G. and his friends.

Oscar:Oscar looks around the place before setting off to the main building

Narrator:*He finds himself on the landing site for the train, with four gates before him which enters the school. Three people guard them, one in the center which stares to him uncertain of why the boy is here, while the other two stand in between the two gates on either side of him.

School Guard: "I'm sorry, but, the gates are closed for another two weeks, no visitors."

Oscar:"Well it's a good thing that I'm not a visitor then. I'm Oscar King Kingston a student here."

School Guard: "Oh, is that so? Well, you should have been here when the gates were open.. A month ago."

Narrator:One of the guards look to the man in the center and ask

School Guard: "Didn't Orikasa say there were a few students who'd be late?"

Narrator:The one in the middle lowers their head and motions for Oscar to get closer

Oscar:Oscar heads towards him

School Guard: As he approaches, the guard motions for Oscar to give him his hand "Alright, let's see if you're telling the truth."

Oscar:Oscar shows him his left wrist

School Guard: Taking hold of Oscar's left wrist, the guard brings up a small scanner which after a blink, he lets go, letting it's connected string pull it back to his side, before looking back to Oscar for a moment

"Nineteen year old, male, 5'5", from the Kingston family, Oscar King. East Dorm, room eighteen, arrives at approximately eleven o'clock... Today, and.. Oh, look at that, you get to go and speak with the vice-principal herself."

He nods as one of the other guards opens their gate "Alright, looks like you were telling the truth, go on. Knowing that psycho-bitch, she'll probably find you later tonight, so just do whatever you want until then. Also, just a bit of an early warning, don't start fights, the use of powers is permitted here and everyone else has had a full month to practice using theirs, and trust me-you, they have been."

Oscar:"Fair enough my power so far has not lent itself to fighting so I doubt I'll start anything unless I have to. Either way hope you gents have a good rest of your day." With that Oscar strolls past them into the school proper

Attempts to remember, with (2) degrees.

Narrator:Finally making his way on the grounds, Oscar follows the path which quickly splits to four directions, recalling a map overview of the school he got in his acceptance letter, he is able to navigate to any of the locations with relative ease, be it any of the four dorms, the various subject specific buildings, or the main hall which houses the staff and their respective equipment.

Oscar:Oscar heads towards building 20

Narrator:Making his way to one of the engineering building, Oscar enters and finds it mostly empty with people currently in their classes. As he passes the doors, he hears various teachers talking and machinery working.

Oscar:Oscar takes a look at some of the machinery around and looks for any area with tools, materials and a place to work

Narrator:It doesn't take him long to find various rooms in the basement of the building, which holds work stations and a type of storage.

Oscar:Oscar grabs some metal, tools and some wires and sets them on a work station

he then starts planning out a design for a small flying metal drone

Attempts to remember, with (1) degrees.

Narrator:It takes some hours as not just one class but a second ones comes and goes with people running around upstairs before he finally finishes, as midnight is mere minutes away.

Oscar:Oscar admires his work for a bit checking for any flaws and what he could do better next time before storing it his backpack, He the heads up the stairs to leave and head towards his dorm

Narrator:Oscar finds several obvious (to him) flaws and is unknowningly forced into a wince at his own failures, however sees clearly how it can be fixed for future models, with this basic little disk-like drone which fits neatly within one his bag's pockets, being small enough to just barely fit in his palm.

As he gets to the top of the stairs and begins to leave the building, he hears some clicks from a person behind him, as footsteps begin walking towards him

Oscar:Oscar stops and looks back towards the sounds of the footsteps

OverSeer:As he peers back, he sees a rather tall woman walking towards him with the smirk of a demon and eyes that seem to glow with a bit of a white hue

"Not even unpacked and already planning things."

"Tsk tsk tsk."

Oscar:"A mind like mind does not like to rest or to stay idle I'm afraid, Apologies if there was any protocols I should have followed. The guards at the gate said I was free to do as I wish until you wanted to see me. So I decided work with my hands for a while. Anyway I'm rambling, Oscar King Kingston a pleasure to make your acquaintance miss...?"

*mine

He gives a little bow as he finishes and raises his hand towards her in a questioning manner

OverSeer:"An absolute pleasure, I assure you. Not everyone grabs the eye of OverSeer Orikasa... Umpha, excuse me, just finished a series of interviews, still in character, speech wise. Anywho, you're fine, darling."

Walking past Oscar, she motions her fingers for him to follow, saying

"Come along, now, child."

"I wish to speak with you, but I shouldn't keep you from getting to your dorm, your a bit tired and you need your sleep, so we'll walk and talk."

Oscar:Oscar follows a distance to the side of her matching her stride as he walks

OverSeer:She takes notice to his intent and ignores it for the moment, sparking the conversation with

"What are your ambitions, Kingston?"

Oscar:"honestly there's to many to name. For this school though however its rather simple. I want to be the best and use every resources it has to offer me. For my greater ideas and dreams down the road." Oscar says with a small smile looking straight ahead as he walk

OverSeer:"Do you wish to one day become a Ten'no of the S.S.F.?"

Oscar:"Depends really. It will come down to an equation of cost vs reward. How much will it cost me in freedom and how much power and control will I gain from it. As it stands now though I'm not sure but it is a route I'm considering."

OverSeer:"Politics is a nasty game, not one I'd recommend to the faint of heart. But we both know you're more than an average citizen, aren't you. Tell me, and be honest, what is your opinion of these yoioshi, and this idol culture our society has built and maintained?"

Oscar:"I think that it makes humanity over reliant on the few who are allowed to use there powers for the "Public good". There's also the problem with them using their fame and power for less then righteous reasons. It seems like a move a government would make that's on decline. That doesn't have the power or energy to solve the problems they use the yoioshi for. I think it will backfire and when it does it will be drastic.

*the

OverSeer:"What would you do to change this?"

Oscar:"The logical solution I find would be to increases governmental powers and centralize that power and put any person who wants to use their power the way a yoiosh does under direct government control. No more freelance or sponsorships. I have some other minor thoughts and ideas but nothing that would add much."

OverSeer:"More governmental control? Some argue against that sort of thing."

Oscar:"Any who are arguing against it are doing so from a point of freedom and other pretense's that a partially privately run sector will function better and more efficiently. They forget that the yoioshi's job is not one of efficiency but one of public safety and causing the least amount of damage. Those corporations are base off of profit and if that means cutting corners for more money that's what they will do. They have no care for people nor have any responsibility for them other than what the government mandates. The government are a reflection of the society and are tied to it and the people who make up the society. If the society falter so does the government a cooperation only cares if they start losing money. That's bad perspective to have when it come to people and there lives and safety. The government taking control is logically the best outcome to occur for the nation and its people."

OverSeer:"I knew I'd enjoy your point of view, so refreshing."

She stops before the eastern dorm on campus and turns to Oscar

"I do believe I'll continue to speak with you at odd times. For now, I'll leave you with a warning, another boy who attends here has been a bit difficult for me to keep an eye on. If Joshua Alork attempts to speak with you, watch him carefully, he seems to be a tricky one who has ambitions past this school... He's one of the only seventeen applicants who made perfect scores on the written part of the entrance exams, alongside you."

Oscar:He stops as well and faces her "I'm always more than happy to have a conversation. I'll heed your warning about Joshua. Even though I doubt there's anything for me to worry about. A perfect score on the test is but a fraction of my intellect not to sound egotistical. I'll watch him though all the same along with everybody else at this school. It pays to be informed. Good night miss Orikasa." He finished with a slight bow and smile

OverSeer:As he comes up from his bow, she gives him a small pat on the head before taking her leave

Oscar:He smile turns into a scowl and looks at her with quick glance of hate before calming his features and walking towards his dorm

OverSeer:As he enters his dorm, he finds several paintings lining the walls, and several places to lounge about. Making his way up the stairs, he finds his room at the end of the second floor, room eighteen.

Narrator:As he enters his dorm, he finds several paintings lining the walls, and several places to lounge about. Making his way up the stairs, he finds his room at the end of the second floor, room eighteen.*

Oscar:Oscar heads to his room

Narrator:Upon opening the door, he finds a man standing in the middle of his room turn to him and stare at him blankly for a moment, which he can tell is a moment of examination.

Godoria:"'Sup."

Oscar:"Hello there" Oscar gives a wave before walking towards his bed that is unoccupied and begins unpacking and setting his shit up on his side of the room

Godoria:He gives a nod before grabbing a soda from his desk and leaning against the wall next to the window

"I take it you're the late roomie OverSeer told me about?"

"Said she wanted to talk to you when you got here.. Just to let you know."

Oscar:"I am indeed that late roomie and I just got done talking to her before I got here." Oscar stops unpacking before turning in a fluid motion and facing him "The name is Oscar King Kingston" He says with a light smile "You can call me Oscar or king if your feeling in a feudal mood. What about you roomie what's your name?"

Attempts to charm (0)

Godoria:"Godoriavich Pent. Can call me Godo, or Godoria... Or Pent.. Not many have that last name."

A long, drawn out sip from his soda is taken after this

Oscar:"Fair enough, I'll just call you Godo then"

Oscar then returns to unpacking the rest of his items and continues to organize them

He takes special care to set his puppet in a nice corner on his side of the room

Godoria:After he finishes organizing them, he finds Godoria point to his desk

"Put your Mishikouta in the top drawer, the introductory video should play when you turn it on."

"Also don't kno- i-is... is that a doll?"

Oscar:"Its a puppet"

Godoria:"Big damn puppet, how do you marionette it?"

"Thing looks like it'd marionette you."

He takes another long, unnecessary sip from his soda

Oscar:Oscar looks at him for a second before activating his power and having it quickly and suddenly jump at Godo

Oscar attempts to manifest Puppeteer, with (1) degrees.

Godoria:Attempts to climb (84)

He isn't able to finish as the puppet literally jump scares him, causing him to lose his balance and soda and spit fly, so does glass as he stumbles back in a vain attempt to catch himself and crashes into the window breaking it, almost falling out

"Wha-wh-what the f-"

he begins a coughing fit as he had been choking on his drink from the sudden startle

He peers back to Oscar

Oscar:"Damn man I didn't think you get scared that bad man my bad" Oscar walks over to him and pats his back to help with the coughing and then offers him a hand up

Godoria:Taking the hand, he stands after a bit more coughing and finally catching his breath again

"It's fine. It's... It's fine."

That's all he says before taking his leave from the room

Oscar:Oscar watches him go before going and cleaning up the glass

Narrator:Oscar cleans up the glass in little time, and goes about his night as usual, eventually waking up with an alarm going off on the other side of the room

Oscar:Oscar slowly gets up from his bed looking over towards Godo

Narrator:He sees Godo hadn't returned from the night prior

Oscar:"Damn I really scared the shit out of him"

Oscar then starts getting up and heads of to get a shower and something to eat

Narrator:After leaving the shower and getting dressed, Oscar heads to the South-Eastern Cafeteria, where he finds it already filled with students getting their breakfast.

After a short ten minute wait in line, Oscar is given his food and grabs a seat at one of the longer tables where several people surround him, but little pay him any attention, already embroiled in their own worlds

Oscar:Oscar looks around the cafeteria while he eats and listens to the people around him, trying to get a good idea of the different cliques and friend groups

Attempts to notice (0)

Narrator:Oscar doesn't over hear much with there being way too much noise going on all around, however he is able to pick up that several Coteries have been established within the school, several from each dorm, with one of the more popular students being Jeremy Goode.

Around him are Eis Milton, a large fellow who packs as much brain as he does brawn, Nami, he seems easy enough to manipulate and has taken a bit of a liking of Oscar, occasionally peering to him. A man named Englund, who gives off an overly joyful and friendly position seems to make Oscar feel as though there is something deeper, and finally, the boy to his left, Miret, who appears to be a social inept character, however seems to enjoy being around people and therefore is only there for the company.

Oscar:Oscar looks towards Englund and waits for a good time to get his attention and talk to him

Narrator:It doesn't take long for Englund to become free as the person he had been in a casual conversation stands a leaves, quickly being replaced as the students on the other side of them scoot over to make room for the next.

Oscar:Oscar looks over to him "Excuse me, do you mind if I ask you some questions man?"

Englund:He pauses for a moment, and gives a soft smile before nodding

"Go for it, friend."

Oscar:"Well you see I just got in yesterday and you look like a guy who knowd some stuff. Got any advice for who to avoid and who's cool, what teachers are good which one's are cunts? That kind of thing"

Englund:"Oh, well.. hmm, let me think.. I suppose it'd depend on your own interactions, though there is one bad egg for sure. A darker-toned character from the base, Koyasu. He's always starting trouble, and has gathered himself a small following of... Well, bullies, to be honest, that's all they are."

"As for teachers, Crispin has been a good friend to me so far, but the teacher for Arts and Humanities, Usagini has been a bit... Been a bit of a hard ass so far."

"As for who is cool... Well, you're pretty cool so far... Kazuki, while we're in opposing dorms, she's really sweet and super good with her powers... And there is this odd fella I've been chatting with, just calls himself J, he seems alright so far."

"One of the ones I'm personally suspicious of is Autumn, though. Dude never says anything."

"Always so mysterious."

"Oh, and then there is this girl I've been eyeing, her names Anne, but.. Well, that can just be a hushed thing between us, eh?"

Oscar:Attempts to charm (2)

Englund:"Oh, and then you got the four pillars of the community. Vee, who is a bit of a loner, he seems to keep track of everything that happens, apparently he is super smart or something and, well, not to spread gossip, but I heard he sees the school as a weird type of game... But he helps out the pieces on the board some times.. Which is us, we're the pieces on th- anyways, Zubad is someone who deals exclusively to the eastern dorm, being a type of information dealer, but beyond that, I know nothing of him. Then you got Aoba, who has been wondering around the school causing major and minor problems alike... And last but not least, Jeremy Goode."

"He's gained his own following of groupies who fawn over him constantly, but for well enough reason, only a handful of people have proven to beable to take him one on one, both mentally and physically. But he usually tries to keep the peace within his circle, and doesn't go out of his way to meet trouble outside of his people."

Oscar:"I was right about you having a lot of information. I think I got a really good idea of what's going on around here now. I'm pretty impressed with how much you know. You might what to count yourself as information dealer with how much you gave me there."

Englund:He gives a smile and a bit of a blush

"Oh, no, I'm no such thing, that's about all the information I have."

Oscar:"Its way more than I expected and its only been a month as well. You got a really good sense for what's going on and who's who. Speaking of which I'm Oscar King Kingston but you my friend can call me Oscar or king if you like. its very nice to meet you" He hold his hand out to shake

Englund:He gives Oscar a firm handshake and nods

"Yes, a lot has happened within a short amount of time, though I'm sure there is much more that I don't know, so don't take my word as law, but I've tried to keep my eyes peeled, gotta know your surroundings, right?"

Oscar:"Indeed you are. Its best to stay informed"

Englund:"It's quite something that your last name is Kingston, as it so happens, I'm Englund Queensly."

Oscar:"Ha, what a coincidence. Seems like it might be fate that we talked, if you believe in that kind of thing."

"Out of curiosity let ask you about what you think about Jeremy. Just between you and me and give me your honest opinion."

Englund:"Jeremy?.. Hmm... Well, he's real handsome, I can't deny that, not that I'm... You know, but I can appreciate his natural beauty. His strength has only been rivaled by a few, as well as his wit, and he treats his people fairly and similar to that of a mother, while showing almost complete masculinity. To be honest, I'd say I have a good bit of respect for the man, although... If I were to speak honestly, I believe he is focusing too much on the smaller picture."

"He wishes to only house and help his people and those less fortunate, a modern day super-man, if you will, but someone of his caliber could do much more with just a bit more effort."

"He could probably do very will in most of any field he decides to shoot for, but I think he'll always hold him back."

himself*

very well*

Oscar:"Hmmm, So high cognitive ability, physically handsome, and strong. Defiantly seems like a guy people would flock around. The motherly instinct and tight social group is interesting and not what I would expect from the prior information. From the information I got from you and my other source is a bit conflicting your was very good the other however was a warning . Quite perplexing this Jeremy is. But I like a good puzzle. Thanks for giving me your opinion I appreciate it."

*Omit

Thanks for giving me your opinion I appreciate it."

Englund:He gives a nod, continuing to offer his warm smile

Oscar:"So what classes do you have?"

Englund:"I'm attempting to take as many as I can. Speaking of which, the first one should be starting soon."

Oscar:"That's fair I'm planning on doing the same. I'll go ahead and head that way if there about to start. I prefer to get a good seat if I can. If you ever need any help in any of your classes let me know. I will be more than happy to help you. I got a perfect score so it won't be any trouble for me."

Englund:"Oh, well, I appreciate it, Oscar, I'll keep it in mind... Anyways, until next time, Kyanta."

Oscar:"See you as well Kyanta." Oscar throws away food and heads off for his first class

Eis Milton:As he stands, he picks Miret up and places him on his shoulders, taking their leave.

Nami:Nami gives Oscar a wink as they pass one last time

Milert:A piece of cheese hangs from his mouth as he lets Eis Milton just sort of walk him out

Miret:A piece of cheese hangs from his mouth as he lets Eis Milton just sort of walk him out&

Narrator:Oscar doesn't find it difficult to get to his class

Part 2

Narrator:Oscar finishes his class, having even had time to take a quick power nap during most of the class as he already knew everything they were saying.

Having already stepped out of class and made his way through the crowd of characters that walk the halls of C.K.Y., he is forced to pause for a brief moment as a larger than ever needed or wanted man passes in front of him, taking up more room than anyone else he has ever seen.

Oscar:Oscar uses his smaller size to slide past the man. Before making his way to try and find Vee

Narrator:Wondering the school grounds, Oscar can't seem to find any form of mark for Vee, but does, nearly an hour into his search, feel a tap along his should as a hand is placed on it

Oscar:Oscar nonchalantly turns around

Attempts to remember, with (58) degrees.

Unknown:Turning to find a large, yellow jacket around a slim young man who questions

"Huia, Kyanta." = "Hello, friend"

(To Oscar): He is able to pick up that this man knows too much and looks down on not only Oscar, but most other people, seeing them as merely animals, but holding some form of odd responcibility and ownership over them, and therefore holding no ill intent, but rather wanting to aid them to a better place. Oscar is immediately able to tell that this man can either be a good alley or one of his worse enemies, as well as this he can tell that this man carries a very playful attitude that he uses to toy with people, and even has a slightly sadistic nature, being able to guess that he finds some form of joy when he senses others are in pain, however holds some form of conflicting nature as he himself feels extremely guilty over this fact. On top of this, Oscar is also able to tell that he comes from gutter trash, even below Oscar's own family, and has grown up on the streets, fighting to survive and eating from the trash in order to not starve. Oscar gets the sense that this guy tabs on things around the school and is here to do nothing more than use Oscar in some way, which is the only reason he made his appearance so oddly.

Oscar:Oscar regards the man for a second before gazing at with lazy attention "Took you long enough. I was jut about to bypass this little game and find you directly. But you here now so we can get down to business. Are you fine with staying here or do you have a place you prefer to go for the sake of silence and security?"

*just

Unknown:"Oh-ho, that's all unnecessary, I'm just here to help you out. You're looking for that Vee, character, right?"

Oscar:"Yes I am. I assume you know where he is?"

Unknown:"Currently? No. But I can tell you where he's going to be."

"But I want just one thing in exchange."

Oscar:"Depends on what it is"

Unknown:"Your name."

He says with a lighter, chipper, joyful tone, making a slow but deliberate walk around Oscar.

Oscar:"What use would that be for you?"

Unknown:"So I know what to address you as."

He pauses as he makes it to the other side of Oscar, and wipes some of the hair out of his face that the wind blew into it.

Oscar:"Well if you need a name you can refer to me as King"

Unknown:"King?... Kingston?"

His eyes narrow for a brief moment

Oscar:"Or is it just king? Or do I have a high self esteem and I like the title? Or is it quickly thought up codename? Questions, questions. What do you think?" He ask with a smile of his face

Unknown:His smirk is mirrored before as the parculiar character gives a point to him and tilts their head, taking an odd pose

"So, Aoba was right, Samatha's long lost relative is here, huh? I'll have to give him props."

Hiroshi:"Names Hiroshi, by the way. It's nice to properly meet you, Oscar."

His point turns into an offer for a shake.

Oscar:Oscar looks at his hand for a second before shrugging and shaking it "Its not a very hard thing to find out public record and all that. Not to mention I doubt this schools security is up to snuff. Also don't her name again while I'm around. Also nice to meet you Hiroshi."

*mention

Hiroshi:"Noted."

He keeps quiet until the shaking stops before bringing his hand back into his coat pockets

"So, mister King. What's your deal? You looking for some fun? Maybe some money?"

"Or just normal, good old fashioned information?"

He is sure to properly pronunciate all of his words

Oscar:"information is what I desire indeed. I have no interest in anything else besides that."

Hiroshi:"Nothing wrong with that, best tool anyone could ever have. Worthless in the eyes of a fool, but luckily only a handful of people here are such..."

He looks off to the side for a moment before starting to walk away, saying

"Sorry, I have a bad habit of breaking into monologue and almost got going there."

"Anyways, see ya, King Kingston."

Oscar:"Not going to give the location of Vee before you leave?" Oscar call out to him

Hiroshi:He pulls something from coat and tosses it back to Oscar

"Catch!"

Oscar:An arm lurches out from his backpack catching the item

Hiroshi:It's revealed to be a U.S.B. which can fit into most modern slots

Oscar:Oscar pockets is before walking away

Oscar decides to head to the mall to pick up a list of things he needs

Jim:After picking up several items, with the second class of the day about to start, Oscar decides to pick up some food before leaving.

"So, what're you having?"

Oscar:"I'll take a plate of spaghetti and meatballs with garlic bread and a light salad with a glass of red wine"

Jim:He raises an eyebrow and nods

"Full three course meal for lunch, huh?"

"hehe, hoping that it'll give you another few inches, huh?"

He punches in a few things on the register before looking back to Oscar and saying with a smile at his own joke

"It'll be ready in about fifteen minutes."

Oscar:"I'll take all the inches I can get man. Thanks I'll be back in fifteen to get it." Oscar flips open the book he has and reads it as he walks away.

Fukuma:As he walks away, the next one in line walks up and begins a casual convo

"Howdy, Jim, how's the day going?"

Narrator:With Oscar walking away, the time seems to fly by with seemingly no time before he hears

Jim:"Yo! *Speghetti and meatballeh!"

"Yo! Speghetti and meatballeh!"

Oscar:Oscar walks up to grab his food

Jim:As he grabs it, Jim gives him a view of his pearly whites and says with a followed wink

"Come again, maybe next time I can give you a few inches."

Oscar:"I'd take you up that offer but I'm giver not a taker but thanks for the offer" Oscar respond with a smile as he takes his food "Although if you decide you want to catch instead of pitch let me know" He finishes with a wink of his own as he walks away with his food

Attempts to charm (11)

Jim:He gives a click

"We'll see."

As Oscar walks, he can tell Jim gives a few looks and gives a bit of a contemplation.

Oscar:After Oscar finishes eating he goes to his second class of the day

Attempts to remember, with (2) degrees.

Fujiwara:Once again having taken a power nap, Oscar finds himself being woken up at the end of the class with the teacher questioning

"So, mister Kingston."

"Have a long night?"

His voice grumbly, with a tone as if he feels slighted

Oscar:Oscar regards him for a second before he yawns "No just a heavy lunch"

Fujiwara:"Oh, oh.. Well, we must all have our naps after lunch... I.. Know you're still waking up, so I'll give you a moment to think on this one, but can you tell me the name of the first tribe of Retric we met after finally leaving our bunker homes"

Oscar:"Neisn first tribe, Hwyial second tribe, and the Siaia eighth tribe."

"That is not of the first but the third and eighth as well"

*only

Fujiwara:"Oh, so you know three of them. Impressive, now tell me, would you happen to know what the Neisn and Siaia have done since our initial meeting with us?"

Oscar:"Well they have given us protection from the other barbarian members of their species. As well as the Avec and their love of hunting and targeting humans. The Neisn also aided us with the establishment of our first settlements. Similarly to how ancient natives did for the colonial nations of the old world."

Fujiwara:He raises an eye at Oscar bringing up the old world

"Oh, you appear to have vast knowledge on the topic of history, I see.. Well, then, tell me, what year did the U.S. go into it's second civil war?"

Oscar:Attempts to remember, with (4) degrees.

"There is a bit of debate on the subject as I'm sure your aware, the general agreeance is 2025, but I'd say it actually happened two years prior. When the Ilentid finally finished their civil war and started working with the Chealar government to manipulate media against Hashikonai. Which used the unstable society of the, at the time United States of Kilba, to try and dismantle their entire body. This somewhat worked when they entered a civil war, which is said to have started in '25 when the government briefly changed it's name to the United States of Koaliang, a plant, that while had gained root in the U.S., it has been hinted that it had origins with the Hashikonai, and that's one of the reasons for the civil war, where the North-West sided with it's government, but the South-East didn't just keep it's name pre-change, decided to revert back to it's original name when their colony broke away from Cananadia, calling themselves the Unitary States under Kilba. Kilba, of course, referring to Atrosis Kilba Phontur, who sacrificed his life to ensure a a peace treaty treaty was met between the separate states that formed in the constantly waring land of Jorba."

Fujiwara:He's forced to lower his monocle as he leans on the chair next to him.

"I.. see."

The bell rings signaling for class to end

Oscar:Oscar calmly stands up and grabs his backpack before looking back at the man "Was there anything else Mr. Fujiwara?"

Fujiwara:Clearing his throat, he gives a shake of his head as everyone in the class gets ready to go

"No, son. That was.. Impressively all."

Oscar:"It's quite simple information I learned a number of years back but I'll take the compliment nevertheless. Have a good rest of your day sir." Oscar gives a polite nod before heading out of the class

Fujiwara:He looks to his board which was on the topic of the bunker wars that occurred just prior to the creation of the S.S.F.

Oscar:Oscar makes his way to the library to use the usb he got

Phutim:Making his way to the library, Oscar passes one of the school janitors as he takes a seat and loads up the USB he was given.

Narrator:Loading up the USB, Oscar finds it opens an app which shows a map of the school, before quickly taking several snap zooms to show a location behind the North-Western cafeteria.

"As Oscar places the USB into the computer and opens it's singular held file, with the title 'Good_Luck'. Upon opening it, he finds a map of the school which zooms in on a spot behind the North-Western Cafeteria, before an animation of a stamp hitting the screen reveals '6 o'clock.'."*

Oscar:Oscar memorizes the information before taking out the USB from the computer and heading for the closest engineering building

Foronda:As he gets up to leaves, so does the man who had taken the first computer in the library, offering him a high-five as he walks by

Oscar:Oscar gives him the classic male head nod and throws his hand up for the high five

Narrator:Taking his leave, Oscar finds it not too difficult to get back to the engineering building, quickly making his way back to the basement where all of the tools, benches and scraps are kept for tinkering and recreational use.

Foronda:The high-five went off without a hitch, and Foronda even gave a 'classic' headnod back.

Oscar:Oscar takes out his hand held drone and his new Retreval and puts them on the table. He then starts doing any easy modification and fixes design wise to the drone. After a bit of tinkering with the drone he puts in a motherboard and processor along with a way to send and receive data into it. After that he starts to work on a program to pilot and receive data from the drone to his Retreval.

Narrator:With his drone now working, Oscar is almost repulsed by his lost apps and created tools from his previous Retreval, but is able to get past it and quickly sets up the basis for making an app to control his newly made drone, only having the time to get it to fly vertically before his time came to go to the cafeteria

Oscar:Oscar packs up his drone and his precious new Retreval before walking to the cafeteria to hopefully meet Vee

Narrator:As Oscar leaves the basement, he is stopped, similar to last time, as he nearly runs into someone who is beginning to walk down the steps.

Oscar:Oscar takes a step to the side allowing them to come in so he can head up the stairs

Lovely Autumn:As he almost bumps into Oscar, he stops takes a step back and gives a quick nod and bow with his hands clapped together before moving to the side to let Oscar through

Oscar:Oscar hesitates for a second before shrugging "Excuse me, sorry for nearly crashing into you man" Oscar says apologetically as he start to move past him

Lovely Autumn:As Oscar starts to move past him, he starts going again as there is an awkward moment of both trying to go at the same time, thinking the other was going to let them through

His eyes give off a bit of an apology as two times they try to go at the same time, he stops and just leans on the railing of the stairs, letting Oscar leave the third time

Oscar:Oscar waves it off as whishes him a good day lightly chuckling about the awkward situation as he goes

*And

Lovely Autumn:He gives another bow and claps his hands before heading into the basement to do something of his own

Narrator:"Well, we've all been there, haven't we?"

The Narrator chuckles before continuing the story

"Oscar makes his way through the dark campus with lights perched along the buildings and walkways allowing him to see."

Making it to the cafeteria, Oscar finds not just a single person, but a group of 'em as they turn and look to him, with one calling out

Fuckin' Loser: "Eh'!! The fuck is this?"

Rando #2: "I-I-I 'unno, man, he looks alright?..."

Narrator:The group of roughly fight guys stare at Oscar as the loud loser questions

Loud:d Fuckin' Loser* "'At so? You a'ight?"

Oscar:Oscar regards them with a cold bored gaze "I'd like to think I'm alright. Alright enough to have all 23 of my chronozones unlike some people."

Rando #5: *chuckles a bit.

Rando #3: He leans against the large dumpster and lights a cig

"So, you just walkin' by, er'a.. Lookin' for some'in?"

Oscar:"Well I'm walking and looking for someone. Multitasking as they call it. See I'm looking for what I hope will be a new good friend of mine. A man who's called Vee. You know him? Or where I can find him? I got a tipoff he'd be around here, around this time."

Loud Fuckin' Loser: "'Ell, as a ma'er a fact! I o' some'in... Bu' uhh.. haheah, might cos' ya."

Oscar:"Well depending on the price I might be willing to pay it. How much?"

Rando #3: "Our price is a bit.. Unusual, see, one of us is actually from these levels, see. Haneo don't mean a damn thing to us. What we want... Is ten favors."

Ten favors, that we can ask for, whenever we please."

Rando #2: "B-but, we ain't so cold hearted as to not be understanding."

Narrator:The talking stops as they all just stare at Oscar, blankly, waiting for a response... Even the cig stops being inhaled

"The fuck is up with these guys, huh?"

Oscar:Oscar shakes his head "Nah I'm good. Ten favors is exorbitated. If you were more reasonable with maybe only one favor I would have taken you up on it. But ten isn't going to happen." Oscar puts his hands in his pockets before turning on his heels and waling the other way

Rando #4: "Five favors, take it or leave it?"

Oscar:Oscar throws his hands up giving them a single wave of farewell as he walk

Loud Fuckin' Loser: "Oauh!!! C'mun! Ya 'ant leeve us 'ere, like this!"

Oscar:"Oh but ever so dreadfully I am doing just that! The horrid humanity of it all! How will you ever cope?" He says in a dramatic like fashion as if he were delivering lines in a play as he continues to walk away

Katsuyuki:Just as he gets to the edge of the building, he is greeted by a man walking in the opposite direction, as the man stops and looks to him

He then looks to the group behind Oscar and back to him before raising a hand to stop him and asking behind a lack luster mask

"What's this?"

"They giving you some form of trouble?"

Oscar:Oscar looks at him and then back to the group and lets out a little crackle "No just a bossiness deal that they failed negotiating. A word to the wise never start the bidding to high" Oscar then pats his shoulder before walking past him

*Business

Katsuyuki:As he goes to walk past him, he stops him before saying in a hushed tone

"Wait right here for just a moment."

With an angry and determined look in his eye, he begins walking towards the group of bumble-fucks

Rando #2: "W-w-what're you doin', Katsu?"

Oscar:"Nah man if your looking for an excuse to beat the shit out of somebody you can justify it by yourself."

Rando #3: "Alright, man, I'm warnin' ya'... Need not tread on us."

Katsuyuki:It takes no time for Katsu to walk into the middle of the group as they all appear to be frozen in fear

He turns to look at the loud fuckin' loser and pauses... Seconds of silence pass as he begins to tremble, not even able to look over to Katsu

Oscar:Oscar takes out his drone and sets it to record whatever happens

*Amit

Katsuyuki:Without a warning, the loud one's face smashes into the trash can next to him as Katsu back hands the shit out of him, causing the rest to fall from the pure pressure of Katsu, something Oscar holds no feeling of as one of them begin trying to beg him before he raises the back hand for them but stops before swinging, saying

"Why, I oughta."

He looks over to Oscar and motions for him to come over

Oscar:Oscar thinks about the situation for a second before shrugging and walking over to him, he discreetly unzips his backpack a bit as he makes his way over

Katsuyuki:As he gets back to the group, Katsu lowers his mask to reveal his face... and to take rando 3's cig for his own

"Apologies for this gaggle of idiots."

Rando #2: "W-we didn't do not-"

Katsuyuki:"Shut uuuupp!"

"They don't know their manners, how they ever made it in here baffles me."

"One of 'em bought their way in, I know that."

"Anyways, what's it your wanting back here?"

He takes a long drag of the cig

Oscar:Oscar looks over to Katsuyuki "Well if your done with satisfying your need for violence through justification of being a hero. I was looking for a man named Vee. These generically unfortunate gaggle fucks offered me a trade for his location. Sadly they had very little ability to use their brain so they asked me for ten favors. I told them that was awful negotiating and walked away. That's what happened and that's what I'm doing back here. Looking for Vee."

Katsuyuki:"Vee, huh? Yeah, I know that asshole."

One of the randos tries to say something but he kicks their face in to get them to stop

"What'd I say? Huh? All week you lot have been pushing me up the wall, and I'll tell you each now, I've had it. One more peep from any of you without me asking for the rest of the night, and that's it."

"Bang-pow-zoom-boom-kazouma. That's the comically accurate sound effects that'll escape my hands, feet, elbows and knees as they offer big splatter explosion affects."

Oscar:"Ah excellent then you can help me out my friend!. Where can I find him? I was told that he would be here at this time but that seemed to have been bad intel."

Katsuyuki:"Friend? Listen here... Blonde hair? I'll talk to you all night, but I'd prefer for us to not use terms such as 'friend.' I have a very particular mindset, not meaning to offend, just a.. uh, a personal thing."

"As for your information...."

"That fool was supposed to be here."

"Tell you what, just hearing these retards breath is making me seethe."

"I'll take you to him, c'mon."

He flicks the cig in the dumpster and recovers his face before turning and walking away

Oscar:Oscar looks back at the Generics and offers them a mock salute before following behind Katsuyuki

Katsuyuki:As the two leave the scene the group watches them before suddenly the dumpster lights on fire causing them to scream and begin to panic as they make an attempt to put it out

Guiding Oscar not far away, Katsu turns and begins walking backwards as he finger guns Oscar

"What's it I'mma call yua, anywho?"

Oscar:'I'm Oscar King Kingston. But you my dangerous guide can call me Oscar or king which ever you prefer."

Katsuyuki:"Ah, a real king-kang-kingston. Nice to meetcha."

"Names Katsuyuki, and I'm no danger to anyone outside my own friends. Those jokers, they just look up to me is all. Kinda let me do as I please, for god knows what reason, but I enjoy it plenty, so I don't question it too much."

"Can call me Katsu, I reserve Yuki for my betrothed."

Oscar:"Well if your only a danger to your friends then I'm glad you rejected my friend title earlier. Nice to meet you Katsu. Hey if you don't mind me asking what kind of power you have? You fucked up those guys pretty hard back there really fast. So I'm very curious."

Katsuyuki:"Power? Got the power of friendship when it comes to my damage to that little retinue. As for my 'tousia, I don't remember their specific name for it, but I can take control over most of any machinary."

"Like them bikes some of those precipeans 'er whatever they're properly called..."

He gives out a good chuckle

"Pissed so many of them off with little pranks the law calls auto-theft when I caused their bikes to randomly start and start riding around without them."

Oscar:Oscar chuckles along with him "That seems like an incredibly useful 'tousia you got there Katsu. I won't say that I'm not a little jealous of you."

Katsuyuki:"Ah, c'mon, it's fun, but I can't create nothin'. Can't go taking out whole building groups o' people by driving... Oh, wait, I guess you can.. Well, anyways, how about you, big K.? What's your power?"

Oscar:"Well... its not he most glamorous power in the world. My powers is call puppeteer. It lest me control puppets that I make or that are around."

Katsuyuki:"Uah, puppet tear, huh?" Nike (=nice)!"

As he says this, he brings up his other hand to give a second finger gun, contributing to the still held first one

"Have any good stories with that, Little K.?"

Oscar:Oscar looks up and to the left as his eyes slightly roll into the back of his head before it snaps back to Katsu, a small smile forms from his face "Alright I do have one. Yesterday was my first day and I mainly spent doing some work in engineering. So I had yet to unpack or meet my roommate until late that night. I meet him and talked for a bit before I started to unpack. I got most of my things out before bringing out my puppet. He asked me what is was so I told him. He made a comment back to me saying "That's a big damn puppet how do you marionette it? That thing looks like it would marionette you." I found it pretty funny but I wanted to fuck with him a bit so I suddenly had it jump at him. And I swear he about threw himself out the fucking widow when I did. Ended up breaking it and spilling the soda he had all over him. I felt bad about it but his reaction was priceless." Oscar finishes his story with a slightly sadistic look in his eyes and deep laugh

Katsuyuki:Katsu busts into joyess laughter at Oscar's prankster antics

"See, that's the kind of King I'd follow, right there, one who knows how to have fun!"

"Oscar the marionette King! Serious Prankster for none to witness."

Katsu raises his hands and motions as if he were placing down each word as if on a big sign

Oscar:"That's a good title. I should make that into a comedic play. Don't know who would go see it but I'm sure it would be fun to do."

Katsuyuki:"Some of those lousy drama kids club I'm sure. Know I would, with a name like that, I'd have to."

Oscar:"Maybe we should convince them to do the play. But the whole thing is a ruse and the joke are played on them without them knowing. It be a one time show but it would be a show nevertheless. A great one too."

Katsuyuki:"Woauh, now, hang on just a minute!'

"Hold every single possible go-getter you have!"

"Now that's one good, lovely idea you got there, King."

"And you know what... What's your room number?"

Oscar:"Room number is 18. Feel free to swing by any time you like man. Although I may not be there most of the time. So you can have my contact as well. Feel free to hit me up if you ever want to hang out or start going in on this plan with the drama kids."

Katsuyuki:"I'll get to the drawing board and let you know sometime, for sure little-big, diddly-doo."

"Anywho!"

"Here we are."

Turning around, Katsu stops at the West Dorm

"That little shit thought he could take our spot, so we have to push him outta our area."

"Anyways, you'll find him on the roof."

Katsuyuki:"Meeting some guy who goes by a single letter."

"K.?"

"Iunno, some shit because they can't come up with a good nick-code namer."

Oscar:"Thanks for showing me where to go my man. I'll head on up and meet with both the creatively challenged guys. I'll see you later man take it easy"

Katsuyuki:"You too, Gold-Crown! Ticket ya (text ya)!"

Narrator:As Oscar wonders the dorm he gets a lot of side looks as he has officially has entered enemy territory. It doesn't take him long to climb the handful of stair cases to the roof, where he finds the silhouette of a person resting against the fence, looking up at the roof.

Oscar:"Hello there!"

Vee:The silhouette looks back to see Oscar and questions

"You've been looking for me?"

Oscar:"No I was greeting the fleeting beauty of the sun before it departs to the netherworld."

Vee:He pauses, staring blankly at Oscar, giving no response to his sarcastic response

Oscar:He watches the sun for a second more before it fully dips below the horizon then he looks back at vee "Yes I came up here looking for you. It was rather boring to do so but I did make a good acquaintance along the way so it wasn't all bad. Let me properly introduce myself I am Oscar King Kingston." He say with a bow keeping his eyes locked at vee's

He then rises back up to his full height and begin walking towards him "I'd like to get some information about a couple people here. Do you think you can help me with that?"

Vee:"Yeah... I could help you out with something like that... But first.. King Kingston? Like King is your nick-name or is that your middle name?"

Oscar:"As in my middle name"

Vee:"Or is it both, and Ston is your last name?"

Oscar:Oscar looks at him confused for a second before shaking his head "Yes"

Vee:"Alright, what do you want?"

Oscar:Oscar looks a bit disappointed before continuing on "What do you know about Joshua Alork and Jeremy Goode?"

Vee:"J.A and J.G. huh?"

"Two completely different entities."

"Don't you work for Joshua?"

Oscar:"A king works for no one but himself and his people. I am much the same given I share the same name to the title. So no I do not."

Vee:"A king wo-"

He smirks

"Alright, fair enough, heard from a ruffian you were looking for me because of Josh, but whatever man."

"Look, all I got on Josh is dude is weird, seems to show more apathy and depression than anything else."

"He keeps himself covered and stays out of most peoples ways."

"He has a respectable bod despite the fact he is always seen just standing or sitting around. Doing the bare minimum during any form of physical exercise, but also does it at just above average pace."

Vee:"What else you want to know, let's see?"

"He never talks and when he does he's either being ruder than sin or he's babbling about nonsense."

"He seems to have focused all his efforts at this school on a particular set of people and hardly talks to anyone outside of them."

"That's about it."

"That do it for you?"

"Anything specific? Questions might remind me of something I had forgotten."

Oscar:"Honestly nothing else really comes to mind to ask about him. The only reason I even know his name is that someone warned me about him. So I just needed to know enough to gage his threat and he's seems to be found wanting in that regard."

"What about josh?"

*"What about Jeremy?"

Vee:"Mister Goode, the school's golden boy."

"Most of everyone that meets him are smitten by his charms, or at least that's the rumor. Still can't get much of a gage on him myself."

"He appears to have spent his entirely life in a special kind of mindset with an almost perfect genetic structure, holding everything every properly raised woman wants. Too bad for him, most people, women especially aren't raised properly, so not everyone loves him, he has managed to create a couple of enemies here and there, but I couldn't tell you much about them."

"Rumors have been spread about him that exaggerates his feats, but that's not to say that he isn't an impressive specimen."

"Hell, if I had any interest in sex, I might would even go for him. But that's.. More of a joke, but... Anyways. Teachers love him."

"Well, all but one, Crispin seems to give off a bit of a stand-offish guard when Goode is around, which I think is because he's threatened by the athlete."

Vee:As he finishes, the door behind Oscar opens as another, taller boy with white hair steps out, stopping for a moment as he sees them.

Vee peers past Oscar and stares at the newcomer who proceeds to wave at them.

Oscar:Oscar gives him a smile and wave in return

Unknown: "A-are one of you.. V?"

Vee:"Yeah, that's me."

Oscar:"Hold on the letter or Vee?"

Vee:They both look to Oscar for a moment before looking back to each other.

"Go on."

"No, no... He makes a good point."

Unknown: "No, no... He makes a good point."

Vee:Vee rolls his eyes as the newcomer gives a bit of a laugh and walks over, getting side by side with Oscar before raising up his arm to place over Oscar's shoulder, beginning to lean against him as he says

Unknown: "Oh, finally, you know how long I've been looking for you? Had to go through this group of dumbasses behind that cafeteria I was told to meet you at."

Oscar:"Man they were still up after the ass beating they got?"

Unknown: "They spun me in a circle for like ten minutes before telling me to go to the wrong place, it was only when... Oda? Oba? Someone told me you were over here that I started this way."

Vee:"They seemed fine to me?"

Unknown: "They seemed fine to me?" *

Oscar:"Maybe you were there before me then. They got the shit kicked in real quick by Katsu"

Unknown: "Kat-who?"

Oscar:"Someone I would suggest you not get into a confrontation with"

Unknown: "Noted."

Oscar:"Unless your a masochist or something, In which case you definitely should."

Unknown: "Not yet I'm not, though my teacher would probably disagree."

Oscar:"Well anyway you found the man your looking for" he nods in the direction of Vee

Vee:"How the hell did both of you come here to see me and get into a conversation with each other before saying a word to me?"

Unknown: "Oh man, looks who the narcisist. God, y'know, not everything is about you, sometimes people like having normal, casual conversations. Can you believe this guy... Uhh?"

He says with a wide smile, obviously joking*

Oscar:"No I can't man. Its like he can't believe that his edgy fence leaning on the roof shtick didn't get him the attention he wanted" He responds back joking as well

"It does make him look cute though I give him that."

Unknown: "Can you get anymore clic-..."

He has to stop and stare at Vee for a moment

"You know...."

Unknow: "I think you're right."

Oscar:Oscar gives him a nod of respect

Vee:His face begins to redden

"Mister Goode, is the narcissist. Speaking of which, would that be all?"

Oscar:"Nah not yet"

Unknown: "Goode? Like that Jeremy dude?"

Oscar:"Yeah I was asking about him"

"Got the information I needed. But I do have one more question to ask my cute friend. What do you know about me? I've been here for about a day and half what information were you able to get in that time?"

Vee:"You?"

Oscar:"Yes me"

Vee:"I know your in room eighteen with a fella that got awfully embarrassed last night. I know your 'cute' joke isn't actually a joke and that you're actually gay. I know you've spent more time in the engineering room than any other place so far, and that you've managed to stuff a smaller puppet than the one in your room in your bag. I know the puppet in your room is an almost entirely recreated variant of the one you used in the fight against Waturo, and that you beat him. Cherry on top is the fact that, according to tests, you're one of the smartest people in this school, and on top of that, you're a humanist, with little to no care, if not negative feelings towards the Astralic species that inhabit various parts of the unknown world."

Unknown: As Vee says Oscar is a humanist he looks to him and raises a hand "My man!"

Oscar:Oscar instantly responds and grabs his hand

"Man you know I just met you. But man I just got to say your my boy"

"What's your name anyway bro?"

J:"Ah, hell yeah, man, Nike! Name's J, bro!, how about you, what's your name?"

Oscar:"Ah J great to meet you man. Names Oscar King Kingston but you can call me whatever you like bro."

"You know I have actually heard about you from Englund. Man he sold you short man. If I would have know your were this rad I would have talked to you first instead of trying to find Vee."

J:"Wait, a minute? King is both your middle and last name?"

Oscar:"Yeah man it is"

J:"That's fuckin' suao (=super/insane/extreme)! Name like that, I understand why you use your full name when introducing yourself."

"Englund is a good guy, he can be a bit modest sometimes, but he's real cool."

"As for this guy...."

He looks to Vee for a moment

After just a brief moment he looks back to Oscar

"So why'd you wanna know about Goode?"

Oscar:"Just basic information wanted to get an idea of his threat level and what he's capable of. Which Vee did a pretty good job at doing. His information is admirable. He was even able to give me a paragraph of information about myself. It was surface level shit that anybody with enough time could find out but that was only a day and a half of me being here. That's good shit if I do say so myself."

"Were you interested in Goode as well?"

J:"Goode? Oh, I don't give a shit about Goode, dude seems like a tool to me. He's literally named 'Good', like.. What? Everyone sucks his dick because he has good looks, all he has is the fact that his rich parents actually raised him right."

Oscar:"Damn man that's harsh but I feel the same way. After I got the information on him I couldn't give about him as well. So I can't blame you."

"You know I just thought about it Vee did get one thing wrong. He thought the cute comment was me trying to hide me flirting with a joke. He was wrong about that. So one out of what like ten or something. Not bad"

J:He raises a brow and nods in agreeance

"Yeah, not bad."

Looking back to Vee, J questions

"You hear that?"

"No, scratch that."

"You see this?"

J:"This man right here?"

"You look at his fairly well kept hair, and those actually really fitting glasses, with his scared up face and tell me, look me in the ears, and tell me in all honesty."

"Whisper it."

"You get with with him?"

Attempts to charm (0)

Vee:Vee blinks as his breath trembles

J:"Yeah, that's right... Shutter at the sight of this dynamic duo of super ritta men on a roof."

"Don't have any idea what's on your way."

"Pal."

Oscar:Oscar is fucking dying laughing

J:J gives a wide smile as Oscar laughs harder than he has in ages, if ever

Oscar:"Damn J you have a way with words like I've never heard before"

Vee:Once again, blush comes to his face as he breaks this conversations up, not wanting this to go any further

"Wait, you're J? Your the one working with Joshua, right? What do you two want?"

J:"Oh, yeah, I almost forgot about that."

"So."

He stops leaning on Oscar and takes a bit of a stance

"Joshua wanted me to give you this."

He offers Vee a thumbdrive

Vee:He takes it, but as he does J nails him in the face

J:Stumbling back, J tosses the thumbdrive down to him.

"Both of those. And I am sorry for that, I do feel bad for hurting such a looker like yours, but.. Well, stop looking into us. It's creepy and a complete break of our privacy. We offered you position in our little team or whatever you called it."

"On the thumbdrive is a personal message from Joshua to clear up any misunderstandings you have of any of us.... Well, that's my part done."

"Nice meeting you, Vee. Sorry it was like that."

He winks to Vee before turning back to Oscar

"I'm sorry you had to witness all of that, I assure you I'm no hitman or hired muscle."

J:"This was a bit personal, which is why I took the job."

He offers a hand to Oscar

"It was real nice meeting you, though, hopefully this doesn't sour any thoughts on me. I'm sure those will come with time."

Oscar:"Nah man don't sweet my morals and empathy is a bit fucked. Even if your were a hit man or hired muscle as long as you weren't hurting innocents I wouldn't care much. It was nice meeting you too man. Hey listen you want to go and get drinks later tonight or hang out?"

*Don't sweat it

J:"Innocents? Well, there is the argument of who is and isn't innocent, but in the general sense, I'm in a bit of an agreeance. As long as people aren't getting taken out for no reason or in the cross fire, do what you gotta do... Yeah, that sounds good, Oscar, my social is currently Banana Strangler, hit me up, I'll change it.. like two or three days. I'm on those platforms way more than I should be."

He stands to attention and gives Oscar a salute

"Until next time, my King!"

With that, J takes his leave

Oscar:Oscar gives him a fond wave goodbye before turning back to Vee and pulling out a handkerchief and cleaning up the blood on his face

"Sorry you got his in the face man. I had a puppet head get thrown at mine at about 100mps so I know how it feels."

Vee:He rears back as Oscar cleans the blood off, but doesn't do much when/if he insists

Oscar:*Hit

Vee:"Yeah, I-.. I'm just not used to being hit is all."

"Wait.. mps?"

"Per second?"

Oscar:"Yeah I was nearly decapitated"

Vee:"Jesus."

"That what happened to your face/"

Oscar:"Yeah but I stayed up and beat the shit out of the dude"

Vee:"... Wataru?"

Oscar:"Yeah that was his name. Man you memory is pretty good even after getting punched."

Vee:"Yeah.. Photographic and what not."

He looks over to the USB

Oscar:"Hey two peas in a pod then"

Vee:He looks back to Oscar before giving a bit of a saddened nod

Oscar:"Hey you know what? I'd pee in your pod" He wiggles his eyebrows at him before laughing

Vee:He revolts back, unsure of where this is going or what he should do, just wanting this whole encounter to be finished.

Oscar:"Come on man can't take a joke?"

Vee:"Are you?"

Oscar:"What? Vee why the fuck would I do that?"

"Why would anyone of my caliber do that?"

"Did you have a stroke after that punch or something?"

Vee:He just lowers his head and looks to the sky.

Oscar:"Hey man listen why don't I take you out and we can go do something to get your mind of all this. We can get something eat or go to an arcade or go watch a movie. Come on man what do you say?"

Vee:"I'm not going out with you, Oscar."

Oscar:"Come on man. What's the worse that can happen. I'm a decent guy and I'm cool to hang out with. Listen just give it a shot and if you want to leave you can at anytime you want."

Attempts to charm (6)

Vee:"Go away. I'll think about it."

Oscar:"Alright I'll leave. If you do change your mind or decide you want to take me up on my offer you know where to find me. Also you can keep the handkerchief a gift from me to you." With that Oscar leaves the roof to fuck about school for the last couple of hours of the day

Part 3

Narrator:"A few days have passed and we now find class just finishing, the subject was Eaftousian Development and the teacher dismissed class, however has dragged one of the student's to the side."

Kuropa:His demeanor sluggish and tone deep from his seemingly constant state of tiredness, he leans against the wall of the room, just next to the door and questions

"I have been asked to speak with you, on the behalf of some of your friends, would you happen to have a minute for this?"

Misuko:A blue colored gum bubble pops as he flicks his hat, moving it out of the way for a proper conversation, questioning

".... Friends?"

Kuropa:"They think you might be getting yourself in over your head with your... Extra-curricular activities."

Misuko:His chewing pauses as he stares blankly to the teacher

"Oh... You know about that?"

Kuropa:He lets out a sigh

"I told them that they should ask one of the other teachers to have this talk with you, but... They insisted it be me... Misuko, you've made several students angry with you, and have even upset some of the Monitors."

Misuko:"Yeah."

He lowers his head and gives a sigh of disappointment

"I know."

Kuropa:"Your constant spying on people and selling their drama needs to stop."

Misuko:"Yes, sir, I-... Wait, what?"

Kuropa:"There is already a group that are looking for you. As a teacher, it's my duty to help you and make sure you stay safe, but if you bring things upon yourself, there is only so much I can do. I'm not going to have a second conversation with you about this, you've been a good student... That's..."

He lets out another sigh

"I don't know what else to say, I'm not good with this stuff, so just.. Stop talking about other people's issues, alright?"

Misuko:"But I don't? That's those weird guys, like Vee.. And Aidan, I've just been putting down bets on school fights?"

Kuropa:He places a hand on Misuko's shoulder and gives a nod

"I'm just passing on a message, go and speak with your friends if you think they're trying to set you up."

Misuko:"Well they chose the wrong teacher to talk to me, you don't hardly care about anyone in the school, especially the students."

Kuropa:His nod continues

"That's what I told him."

Misuko:"Well... Who was it that told you to talk to me?"

Kuropa:"Your little dark haired friend, Aoba."

Misuko:"A-.. Who the hell is that?"

Aoba:The scene shifts suddenly to a gleeful Aoba as he prances around the grounds of the school, dancing his way down a flight of stairs before stopping and staring at an unsuspecting girl before a sly smile crosses his face, an appearance reminiscent to that of a snake's.

Sliding up to her seat as she rests on one of the various benches around the school grounds, his smile continues as he questions

"Might I ask the name of such a beautiful specimen as yourself?"

Laura:She looks over to him, lowering an apple that she had just taken a bite from

"O-oh.. Laura?"

Aoba's eyes watch her throat move as she swallows her food

Aoba:"A name just as pretty as it's possessor. I'm Aoba, it's nice to meet you."

Laura:She almost winces as Aoba gives a wink to her

"Pleasure is mine."

She looks away as a glimmer catches her eye

Aoba:"Would you happen to ha-auhha!!"

Aoba is cut off as a ball slams against his face with enough force to fall off the bench

Laura:She watches as he hits the ground, with neither of them expecting the fastball

Toshiro:He gives a wave from afar

"Sorry about that!"

Aoba:Jumping back to his feet he curses and calls out

"You oversized greenhouse!"

Picking up the ball he throws it away from Toshiro and points

"Now go and get it!"

Yuji:As Aoba throws the ball, it is hit out of the air by another ball attached to a string as Yuji walks up from the side, exclaiming

"Woah, now, Aoba, no need to go and get all mad-angry on us, it was just an accident."

Aoba:He peers to Yuji and gets ready to say something, but stops and pushes his hands into his pockets and turns to walk away, lowering his head and gaining a grumpy expression, mumbling curses to himself

Laura:With the ball rolling near her, she picks it up and tosses it to Yuji, giving a smile and thanks

Yuji:"Don't know what you're thanking us for, but your welcome, souin."

He throws the ball back to Toshiro as the two go back to playing their game

Red Cup:As people are seemingly getting used to student life on the campus of Chikara Koko, the intercoms turn on as the time hits three o'clock, with the school's announcer comes on

"STUDENTS!.... OF THE YUKOJIINNNNN!!!!"

"We have some exciting news for you all! Starting next monday! That's right, just three days from now! We'll be performing singles trials! Which will last everyday all week! What are these trials I hear your quiet little mental voices questions!? I'm not so happy you asked, but I'll answer regardless!"

"These trials are!.... what's that?... The singles trials were apart of the entrance exams?.. Then what am I announcing?"

"Ohhhhh!!! Alright, kids! There was a miss understanding here, but don't worry, it's all been cleared up! This monday the school is going to be holding a series of challenges, everyday will show off anew challenge and it'll last all week!! You're free to partake in these challenges if you wish, or don't... Buuuuuuuut, if you do! You'll have the possibility to win an award! For both, yourself and your dorm! They'll be held within' the gyms, and therefore the gyms will be closed all during next we-.. uh-huh. Okay, the gym is closed starting tonight and won't be ready until the week after next, so for all of you gymrats out here!"

GymMouse:His head lowers as he has lost his title

Red Cup:"Now is the time for you to get your workouts in!"

"For those interested in taking place in these challenges, on Sunday night, name taking will begin, simply stop by whichever of the following areas to partake in the challenge you wish to be in! The options are as follows!"

"The Geo-Gym! A strike has occured among the workers and you Yoioshi have been sent to take care of it!"

"The Hydro-Gym! Five tags have been lost around this water facility! We require Yoioshi to find them and return them to their owner, Satoshi!"

"The Pyro-Gym! An important man has been kidnapped and must be saved from the wrathful Uchida who is holding hostage, we need brave Yoioshi to run in and rescue him before this insane man does something drastic!"

"The Transit! A bomb has been planted in the lower city and we require some skillful Yoioshi to quickly locate and move it to Shuhei, who is the only one capable of ridding us of this terrible threat!"

Red Cup:"And finally, the harshest of the challenges! A Waruioshi has built an army of drones and has began wrecking hacov on the city! All of the major yoioshi are busy with his specially created bots, we need our new batch of young Yoioshi to go in and take out their controller! But becareful, for every lawful hero, there are two chaotic ones as some of your Yoioshi friends want the fame of taking down this villain all to themselves, and will take you out too if you get in their way!"

Fugazi:He rolls his eyes, sighing, but quickly a quizzical look appears on his face, as he contemplates his options, and begins to think that this may be something he wants to participate in

Oscar:Oscar stops working on his puppet when the announcement finishes and begins thinking on what he might be willing to do before deciding to gather more information first

Pascal:He blinked, listening along to the announcement, and rubbed his chin "Interesting.." he got a bit lost in his thoughts, pondering if he should participate or not, ultimately shrugging {Got time to figure it out.}

Eirjiro:He looked up, currently chatting online with a few others. He then hopped back into the chat and typed out, [This sounds pretty homo. I might do it though.]

Zaburo:"Yo! 'jiro! You joining any of them?"

Eirjiro's room stands from his bed, stretching as he had skipped classes today to sleep after a long night of partying at one of the rooms in the West Dorm.

Eirjiro:He looks over his shoulder at hin, "Eh? I'm considering it."

"Not certain. What about you?"

Zaburo:"Oh, I'm absolutely joining them... All of them!"

"And you know what, 'jiro!... I'mma whoop their ass!"

"Not the people in the challenge, but the challenges themselves!"

"I'm going to beat down the idea of a challenge!"

"you know why?"

Eirjiro:"You certainly have spirit! That must be why."

Zaburo:"C'mon, 'Gazi is waiting for us."

Unknown: [Yeah, I'm totally not joining those fucking challenges, but I'll be watching and taking bets on who gets struck down by the school.]

[Bet they're going to do some fuck-tard shit and say someone who whoops ass cheated.]

Eirjiro:[You know they will. I have to go, however.] He logs out, and stands, stretching, "I am prepared."

Zaburo:"Right on!"

He grabs his handy-dandy bladey-wadey, sheathing it in his pockets before throwing up his hood and leading the way, turning off the light as they head out

"Said you ain't met this kid, right?"

Eirjiro:"That I have not. I haven't introduced myself to most people here."

Zaburo:"Oh shit, no!?"

Zaburo turns around plays some hip-hop from his phone and starts popping to it as he says, tossing up hand signs and waving them around

"Well you'll love 'em! Dude's real cool! Been talking to him for awhile, met him on N-Vid-common like four years ago!"

Eirjiro:"N-Vid?"

"that's kinda like N-Word, right?"

"That rap site."

Zaburo:"Ra-no, no. It was that gaming service a while back, it's been canceled since, but it was the online stuff for the N-2.40 system."

"It was real fun, spent a lot of my time on there, just taking some of them schizos and letting life fly by."

"... Good times."

Eirjiro:"That sounds like a good time. Unfortunate I never got to experience it."

Zaburo:"No!?"

"Ah shit man, we'll have to find something online, I'm sure they got a simulator somewhere. Seems like everything has been moved to the computer now days."

"Shit's boring, I don't always want this big ass system with everything... Just wanna turn on my video player and hook in a controller."

"y'know?"

"Wait, stop a minute!"

Eirjiro:"Not particularly, but I do believe you."

He then stops

Zaburo:Zaburo says, continuing to walk backwards

"You fucking go on N-Word?"

Eirjiro:"When I was younger, I browsed every once in a while."

"Just curious to see what pops up."

Zaburo:"Damn man, I wouldn't have expected you to do that at all."

Making their way down a flight of stairs, Zaburo trips and hits against the wall but corrects himself and they keep walking.

Leaving their dorm, he looks to Eirjiro once again and questions as some people give them poor looks

"You made any friends here yet?"

Eirjiro:"Not particularly."

Zaburo:"Now that I think about it... Aside from hitting that gym, do you do much?"

Eirjiro:"I did talk to a guy after I broke a mouse's finger. But-- yea."

"That's mostly it."

Zaburo:"Bro-... What?!"

"You broke a mouse's finger?"

"How?!"

Eirjiro:"Yes."

Zaburo:"They're so fucking small?"

Eirjiro:"He attempted to dishonor me."

Zaburo:"You just.. pick it up and carefull-"

He stops and stares to Eirjiro

Eirjiro:"He thought he was a gym rat."

"But, in the end, he was but a mouse."

Zaburo:"How.. How in the hell did... Did he squeak at you wrong?"

Eirjiro:"He called me some sort of insult."

Zaburo:"Give you mouse eye?"

"The mouse insulted you?"

"He called you a name?

"

Eirjiro:"He called me Crowa-something or another."

Zaburo:"Like a slanted eyed dark haired faggot?"

Eirjiro:"..."

"Zaburo."

"Come on now, I know you're not a gym rat."

Zaburo:"..."

Zaburo thinks about his next words carefully

Eventually he raises his arms and flexes

"Fuck a rat, I'm a whole ass pack!"

Eirjiro:He blinks and stares forward

Zaburo:"Call me the rat king with how many bitches I tie tails with!"

As he calls out, someone from a nearby bench tosses a plastic cup at them

Random: "Hey! Turn that shit down!"

"In the wrong bunker to be playing that speak!"

Eirjiro:He looks over at who threw the cup

Zaburo:"We're not in a bunker you fuckin' idiot!"

Zaburo snaps his attention to the cup-tosser

Cherry:He sucks his teeth before making a kissy face towards them as a group of sports players surround him

Zaburo:He is disguised.

His hair covers his face, changing who he looks like.

Eirjiro:He picks up the cup, and tosses it back, "I believe you misplaced this."

Cherry:"You're right! I meant to hit you in the eye with it."

Eirjiro:"Then come over, and make good on your intentions."

Cherry:"Make good on my inten- mother fucker! Little out of place in this bunker, huh!?"

Eirjiro:"Are you afraid to approach?"

Cherry:Cherry starts walking over but finds a tap on the back of his head as someone calls out

Unknown: "Now, now, Big.C. You really going to pick fights?"

Cherry:"Ma-what the fuck is up with this shit?!"

Unknown: As Cherry turns around his nose gets bopped as a ball attached to a string returns to it's owner

Yuji:He looks over to Eirjiro blankly

"Sorry about that! He's a bit of a jerk, but he don't mean anything by it."

Cherry:"Don't mean anything b- Yuji! I mean I'm about to slam him through this fucking level!"

Eirjiro:"I am afraid it seems his intentions are clear."

Yuji:He looks to Cherry and rolls his eyes

"Well, I tried."

Eirjiro:"If he can act on them is another question."

"He seems the type to raise his voice, because he's afraid to act."

Yuji:"Alright then, Cherry. If you really wish to take him, then fine. Go for it, champ. But so it's clear, no one is to help me."

you*

Cherry:"Wh-.. Yuji!... Yu-yuji~..!"

"C'mon, boss!"

"What's up's happening here?"

Yuji:"What's my name, Cherry?"

Cherry:"Yu-... Yuji, I just said it?"

Yuji:"Yeah... And what culture is that name form?"

Cherry:"It's... It's.. Yuji, what're you on about?"

Yuji:"You're insults to them was towards my people, Cherry. That's what I'm on about."

"You're a big bully. And let me tell you, Cherry. No one appreciates a bully."

"They may laugh at you, they might laugh with you. But fuck you, Cherry. That's what I'm getting at."

Cherry:"Wh-... Boss!?"

"What the hell, man!?"

"I thought we was cool?!"

Yuji:"We were cool. Now sit your big ass down and get back to studying. You've failed every test since coming here and it's only been a month."

Cherry:"...."

Cherry stares at Yuji for a minute before shrugging

"Fine then!"

"Be that way!'

"You know what?!"

"Fuck you, Yuji!"

Cherry:"Eat a dick!"

"I'm going to go over there and ground pound him."

"Then when I come back over here, the rest of these ballers will learn who the real big dick is in this group."

"Just watch this!"

Cherry turns, dropping his school bag and begins for Eirjiro with a displeasant demeanor

Fugazi:He walks up from the direction of the South dorm, wondering where Zaburo and the guy he wanted Fugazi to meet is, before stumbling upon the gayest shit he's ever heard, which makes him speechless

Zaburo:Zaburo takes out his knify-waify and moves his hair out of his face, changing his hip-hop to rap

Fugazi:"Yo..."

"If anyone shows their big dick, we're going to have fucking problems."

He looks to Zaburo "Zabs." He then nods

Cherry:Cherry looks over to Fugazi as he turns the corner, stumblinging into the group, having grew tired of waiting

Eirjiro:As soon as Cherry gets close, he swings

Cherry:"Wh- you want some too!?"

Fugazi:He automatically likes Eirjiro

Cherry:Cherry had just turned his head as Eirjiro swung, not expecting this at all

Stray Cat:Does (23) physical damage

Eirjiro:Does (24) physical damage

Zaburo:"'Gazi!?"

Zaburo calls as Cherry is just absolutely jaw broken, stumbling back, letting out a grunt

Cherry:"Ghuaha!"

He looks to Eirjiro questioningly

"You..."

He holds his jaw, saying

"You fucking hit me?"

Fugazi:He looks to Zab "What's up with all this?"

Eirjiro:He swings for his liver, next

Zaburo:"Big black man here didn't like our music, decided to talk shit so my by Rat-Killer-san here is teaching his ass a lesson."

Fugazi:He looks to the group of people, and then to Zab "What about them?"

Eirjiro:Attempts to strike (141)

Cherry:Cherry's friends aren't at all joining in, instead watching, with a younger man with green hair playing with a yo-yo obviously their leader, standing in the center with his head held high and a smirk along his face.

Cherry isn't expecting for him to suddenly swing at him again and finds another strike to his gut, causing him to let out a gasp and fall to a knee

Eirjiro:Does (26) physical damage

Zaburo:"Oh, that's his posse, but they don't like... Yo-yo man told them to stand back and let Cherry handle it."

Cherry:He looks broken as tears come from his eyes, but he still toughs it out and goes to try and tackle Eirjiro

"Heuayayaaaa!!"

Eirjiro:He steps back, and goes to throw a kick towards his face

Attempts to kick (199)

Cherry:With butter like smoothness, Eirjiro scoots back and front kicks Cherry squarely in the face, smushing his large nose even further and sending him to the floor. Cherry's final thought before being totally and completely knocked out

{Fuck muay-tie!}

His spine collapses in on itself as he is litterally stomped into the earth

Zaburo:"Fuckin'!!!! YOOOO!!!!"

Zaburo jumps, giving himself a high-five(

"My man, my main Shim, you just...!!"

Cherry's friends rest in the back ground, most surprised as the yo-yo slowly walks over, his head still high and a smile still crossing it

He looks to him and points the knife to him

"Yeah, your boy just got fucking smashed!"

Fugazi:As Yo yo starts to step forward, he does too

Zaburo:"Consider that man broken!"

Fugazi:He looks over to Eirjiro "I'm Fugazi."

Zaburo:"Fuckin' christ! Not only does this roomie break mouse fingers, he breaks these darkies too, god damn!"

Eirjiro:He stares down at Cherry, before looking up at Yuji, and then looking over to Fugazi. He is still on his guard a bit, so he gives him a nod, "It is a pleasure to meet you. I am Eirjiro."

Fugazi:He's looking at Eijiro, but is facing Yo Yo and the group of North Dorms

Zaburo:He is freaking the fuck out

Yuji:He steps over, stopping a few feet away from the group and looks down to Cherry

"Big dumb bastard, what'd I tell you?"

"Told you to leave it be, but now look at you."

He hits Cherry's head with his yo-yo.

Fugazi:He pulls up his goggles and then crosses his arms

Yuji:Looking to Eirjiro, he gives a wink

"I wish to apologize again for this trouble."

Eirjiro:He gives Yuji a nod, then looks down to Cherry again, then back up to Yuji

Yuji:"Though it seems you didn't need help, it still was a bit embarrassing for me. Please, allow me the honor of knowing your name?"

Eirjiro:"You may know me as Eirjiro."

Fugazi:"Yo, what decade are you from?"

Eirjiro:"I do not blame you, you didn't order him to attack. If anything, you tried to warn him."

Fugazi:"This guy isn't any faire maiden...."

Eirjiro:"However, dogs must be taught how to behave."

Fugazi:He realizes that both of them are talking weird "What the hell, man..."

Yuji:He looks to Fugazi, ignoring him for now

"And teaching I'll be doing."

Fugazi:"That sounds gay."

"All of this."

"Not that I really got a problem with homos, to be honest..."

Yuji:"I appreciate you putting him back in his place."

He looks to Fugazi again

"You're not.. Shima, are you?"

Eirjiro:He isn't really listening to Fugazi currently, looking down at Cherry again, before he nods, "It was no issue. He certainly earned it."

"He is lucky I don't break every finger on his hand. He was certainly worse than that mouse."

Fugazi:"Nah."

"Geez, my guy."

Yuji:"Mo-.. Mouse?"

Fugazi:He looks to Eirjiro.

Yuji:He looks at Cherry for a moment and raises a brow

Eirjiro:"Yes. He fancied himself a gym rat."

Yuji:"You broke the fingers on a mouse?"

Eirjiro:"One finger."

Fugazi:"Yeah, I'mma be honest, I was thinking the same thing Yo Yo."

Yuji:".... Are you... No."

Eirjiro:"That was enough."

Yuji:"You?"

Fugazi:"Rats have fingers?"

"They got...they got thumbs?"

"I hope not."

"Raccoons are already enough."

Eirjiro:"It was never rac-coon."

Fugazi:"What?"

Eirjiro:That is all he has to say on that matter

Yuji:"Rumor has been getting around about you. That Mummer kept talking shit online, and before school even started someone broke his spirit."

"Changed his name and everything."

Eirjiro:"Oh? Is that so?"

"Good, he needed it."

"Perhaps now he'll reform himself into a respectable man. Or... mummer."

Fugazi:He's more confused than anything right now

Yuji:He raises his hand, taking something from his pocket

"Here, a drive with my info, send me a message sometime, you might beable to help me sometime in exchange for.. Well, what do you like?"

"Money? I'm sure I can get some. Women.. Depending on your type."

He looks to his group which holds a few fit girls

Eirjiro:"Is that so?" He takes the drive and slips it into his pocket, "I'll think on it. I'm not much for physical possessions."

Yuji:"I"m sure we could work something out."

"Hmm... In that case, perhaps just a conversation. Is it true you're from one of our cousin bunkers?"

Information only Zaburo knew

Fugazi:"...what the fuck is this, the North Dorm is like a bunch of pimps and hoes?"

Eirjiro:He nods, "That I am. Interesting you should know."

Yuji:Yuji looks to Fugazi

"You're beyond rude my bald friend."

Fugazi:"Good."

Yuji:"I take it you're from the south?"

Fugazi:"Not a big fan of pimps."

Yuji:"Only they old people with such big mouths."

Fugazi:"Yeah?"

"Havent' noticed."

Yuji:"Yeah, that's because I just made a mistake."

"Sorry, I meant the west."

"..."

Yuji stops for a bit

"Another embarrassment."

Fugazi:He expected people in the North to be meatheads, so this is really weird

Yuji:He looks to Eirjiro, continuing their conversation with a bow

"I'm from the Shima around here so... Our culture isn't as.. Strong the eastern bunkers."

as the*

Eirjiro:He gives a bow back, before he says, "I have noticed. It's not all bad, but strange."

"Though, you run into a lot that are disrespectful here."

Yuji:He peers back to Cherry before snaps his head as some of the larger men in his group walks over

"It's unfortunate, but perhaps we can bring respect back to the people around here."

Zaburo:He grasps Fugazi's shoulder

Eirjiro:"Perhaps so. I will keep your offer in mind for the future."

Fugazi:He looks over "What's up?"

Zaburo:He gives a thumbs up

"'Gazi!"

"Meet the man himself! Finger-breakage-sama!"

He then turns him to look to Eirjiro

Fugazi:"You never told me it was a mouse."

Yuji:As his people grab Cherry, Yuji returns to playing with his yoyo, leaving them to their conversation

Zaburo:"I didn't know!"

Eirjiro:He turns back, "The mouse didn't even know at first."

"He was certain he was a rat."

Fugazi:"...how do you know that?"

"Is your power that you can like talk to animals or some shit?"

Eirjiro:"The way he carried himself, the way he spoke, his name."

Fugazi:"It- IT spoke?"

Eirjiro:"No, you could speak to him, too, if you saw him."

Zaburo:"Only dumb bitches call themselves rats, where I'm from, if you a rat, you get the cap."

Fugazi:"...whoa..."

Eirjiro:"You'd notice him by his sagging shorts and sweaty shirt."

Fugazi:"..."

He's confused by this Stuart Little fuckery

Eirjiro:"And his massive feet."

Fugazi:"...bro I think you saw a hobbit, not a fucking mouse."

Zaburo:"A hobbit?"

Eirjiro:"Funnily, the only places he didn't have fur were his hands and feet."

Zaburo:"Tell you what, he ho-bit that big man over there."

Eirjiro:"Being of a mouse-like build."

Fugazi:"O- OH!"

Eirjiro:He looks over and nods, "He earned it."

Fugazi:"So he wasn't a mouse, actually? He was a dude?"

Eirjiro:He looks back over, "He was a mouse that had a human bodyshape."

Fugazi:"Gotcha."

Eirjiro:"An anthro mouse."

Zaburo:"Yeah, those fuckin' Mumistian bastards."

"Things are terrible, you hear their farms down on the outskirts of the city?"

Eirjiro:"I'm not very familiar with them, but if they all act like him, I will show them the same treatment."

Zaburo:"Fucking things shit and piss everywhere."

"They're animals."

Eirjiro:"Oh, they're not housebroken?"

Zaburo:"And someday."

Eirjiro:"That seems to be an issue around here."

Zaburo:"I'm going to slaughter them."

Zaburo suddenly becomes super serious

Eirjiro:"Back home, but that's a different st--"

Fugazi:He kicks him in the face

Zaburo:He places his knife up an-

"Auhgha!"

Eirjiro:He stops in his tracks, rather caught off guard by this

Fugazi:Attempts to kick (163)

Zaburo:Zaburo is kicked right in the chest, cracking his phone and turning off his music

Fugazi:"Don't talk about that shit around me. We clear?"

Zaburo:"..."

He looks up from the ground and peers at Fugazi, anger filling his eyes as he holds back his words

"Y-.. yeah."

Fugazi:He looks to the phone "Sorry about that. But you pissed me off."

Eirjiro:"Hmm. I see there's some strong feelings on the subject."

Zaburo:Looking away, he goes to stand and doesn't look back to them

Fugazi:"...I can get you a new one..."

Zaburo:"It's fine. I'm sure I have another laying around."

Eirjiro:"This got awkward."

Fugazi:"Don't talk about genociding a whole race of fucking people around me."

Eirjiro:"I'm not so certain they're people."

Fugazi:"That's all I ask."

Eirjiro:"They seem more animalistic."

Fugazi:"I am."

Zaburo:He looks back to Eirjiro

"Yeah, well..."

He stops and grits his teeth for a moment

Fugazi:"That's all I care about. I'd appreciate it if you'd respect that. And I'll respect you."

Eirjiro:"Why do you want to kill them all, though?"

Zaburo:"Show respect for no one else but care when people talk shit on something that's not even in your own species.. Fuckin' traitor."

Zaburo says under his breath but still in ear shot, looking away

Fugazi:"I may not respect people. Doesn't mean I think they should die just because I don't like 'em, fucker."

Zaburo:He looks to Eirjiro

"'cause they're animals. Filthy, sickening, animals. All they do is whine and cry about how bad they're treated."

"How many do you see actually helping?"

"Once you leave this city, you know what they do out there/"

Fugazi:"Bro, you ever fucking look?"

Zaburo:He looks to Fugazi

"I seen!"

"I heard!"

"I know exactly what I'm talking about!"

Fugazi:"Bullshit."

Zaburo:"Just 'cause you're from these high-highs!"

"Played games and jerked off all your life!"

"Flying by on mommy's money!"

"You think you know what it's like down there?!"

Fugazi:"All you've done is jerk off and play games too."

Zaburo:"You don't know shit!"

Fugazi:"It's not a bad thing."

Zaburo:"You know nothing of me!"

"You fucking punk ass!"

"I had to fight to feed myself!"

"God, you really are like the rest of these tower-born."

"You know what, Fu... Fuck you."

With that, he turns and walks away, leaving the scene

Fugazi:"..."

Kinnojo:As he walks away, someone Eirjiro had ran into twice before walks past him, and peers to him as they pass, looking to the gathering with a bag of groceries

"Huh?"

Fugazi:"...you did good back in that fight.' He says to Eirjiro

Eirjiro:He looks over at Kinnojo, and nods, before looking back to Fugazi, Very appreciated. I haven't fought as much since I was here, but I'm glad to know my skills haven't deteriorated."

Kinnojo:He gives a nod back to Eirjiro

Walking past and continuing his way to the north

Narrator:Fugazi's vision disappears as he feels coldness all around him.

Fugazi:He blinks

Attempts to remember, with (-1) degrees.

Narrator:As he blinks, he notices a bit of frost in front of his face that he can't seem to figure out where it's coming from as his body seems to be dropping in temperature

Fugazi:Attempts to notice (0)

Narrator:It takes a moment but Fugazi realizes he's in a type of cold box as his vision begins to adjust to the darkness

Eirjiro:He looks over to where Fugazi was

Chester:Eirjior watched as Fugazi went through one of the biggest possible transformations that a person could do, while staying a human

Eirjiro:"... What the hell?"

Fugazi:He kicks the box

Chester:He wipes a bit of frost off his shoulders and moves his jacket, rolling his arms

"Ahhh, damn it that was cold shit..."

Eirjiro:"Who are you?"

"What are you doing?"

Chester:He stops and looks around, trying to gather where he is

He stops on Eirjiro and just stares at him for a moment

"Name's chest, and don't worry, he's just fine."

"Your friend, or... Was he your friend?"

Eirjiro:"... Uh..." He blinks, and rubs his eyes, "I..."

Chester:"Second thought, doesn't matter."

Eirjiro:"I had just met him shortly ago, was going to talk to him-- no, I am going to ask."

"What just happened?"

Chester:He looks around and questions

"Where am I?"

Eirjiro:"Chikara Koko."

Chester:Some of the other people passing watch the two, having also seen Fugazi just faze into this grown ass man with blond hair

"The yu- Okay.. I'm not going to find anything here."

"Well, sorry about all this.. C'mon, follow me."

Eirjiro:"Why would I follow you/"

?*

Chester:With that, Chester starts walking down one of the paths

"To continue your conversation."

Eirjiro:"..."

Chester:"If you want to move on, go ahead and walk off, your non-friend will be back shortly enough though."

Eirjiro:"I suppose I have to see how this turns out."

He comes along

Narrator: Fugazi kicks the walls but nothing seems to happen... At first, but after a moment he hears a loud animalistic growl seep in

Fugazi:"..."

He looks

Chester:As the two walk, they enter one of the buildings which had a sign saying 'faculty only', where Chester raises his hands

"Anyone in this school capable of helping me!?"

Nishimura:One of the Foreign Affairs teachers, as a matter of a fact, Eirjiro's looks over from a nearby hallway and questions

"Ch-Chester?"

Fugazi:"I'll kick your ass."

Chester:"Oh, good, you know who I am. I could use a bit of your help real quick, come on over here."

Narrator: The box begins shaking, causing Fugazi to lose his footing a bit, as he begins slipping around the ice along the floor

Fugazi:"WH-whoa shit..."

Nishimura:"Y-Yeah? What do you need?"

Chester:"Si-.. Ahhh, shit, you're one of them. Anyone else in here with more balls?"

Nishimura:"Wh-what?"

Chester:He points to someone sitting on a chair, reading a book

"Wait a minute, is that you!? Kuropa?"

Kuropa:He is ignored.

Narrator: Another growl is heard before he is suddenly slammed into the side of the walls as the box feels as if it was hit by a truck

Fugazi:"GOD DAMN!"

Chester:"Kuropa! C'mon, kid needs your help."

Walking over, Nishimura is left in defeat as Chester grabs Kuropa's shoulder and looks to Eirjiro and gives a wide white smile

Eirjiro:His eye twitches, watching this unfold before him

Narrator: As Fugazi feels the gravity leave him, as he realizes the ice box was thrown by something and is now falling. As it is, he suddenly finds himself in a lounge, where his body is forced to vomit from the sudden switch in gravity

Fugazi:He falls to his knees, barfing "Y-YOO-" barf "WHAT THE FUCK?!"

Nishimura:As he falls to his knees, Nishimura looks to him with disappointment

"Damn him... Fuckin' 'Human' Miki always gets chosen."

"Every time."

He looks to the kids

Fugazi:"I DON'T LIKE FUCKIN' BOXES, GOD DAMN!"

He stands, swinging in the air "WHO PUT ME IN THE FREEZER?!"

Nishimura:He swings and knocks the shit out of some air as Nishimura looks over to him

"Gather your surroundings, son, it's all okay."

Fugazi:"YO I WAS IN A FREEZER WITH A TIGER OR SOMESHIT MAN, THAT'S NOT COOL!"

Nishimura:He grabs a hat from a nearby rack, placing it on his head and looks to the door, sighing

"Yeah... I'm sure it was cool."

Fugazi:"I mean, it was cool, that's part of the problem."

"It was fucking COLD."

He bounces, getting frost everywhere

Nishimura:He nods and looks back to Eirjiro

"How do you know Chester?"

Fugazi:"Who put me in that fuckin' freezer?"

"I'mma kick their ass."

Nishimura:He peers over to Fugazi

"I doubt it. Chester is one of the tougher Yoioshi out there, a new comer too."

Fugazi:"Who's Chester?!"

Nishimura:"Showed up just three years ago and has broken the leader boards on fame since."

"Chester is... Well, I guess you didn't meet him."

Eirjiro:"I don't know him."

Fugazi:"NAH HE PUT ME IN A FREEZER!"

Eirjiro:"He just teleswapped himself with Fugazi."

Fugazi:"He FREEZER swapped my ass!"

Nishimura:He looks to Eirjiro

"Yeah, that's his 'tousia."

"Body swap."

Fugazi:"Fucking meat locker?"

Eirjiro:"Does he normally reside in... a freezer realm?"

"What's the animal in there?"

Nishimura:He looks back to Fugazi

"Don't know where he was when he swapped, but he said he was looking for help."

Eirjiro:"His fighting spirit?"

Nishimura:"I... I don't know."

Fugazi:"I wish I kicked its ass."

Nishimura:He looks away

"I wish I did."

Fugazi:"Yeah, Chester sounds like an asshole to me."

Nishimura:Lowering his head, he looks back to the two, moving into a position where he doesn't have to move his neck to look to the two

"Well, that's enough of this, now that you don't have an escort."

"You can go ahead and leave, this building is only for staff."

Fugazi:"I'm back at school?"

Nishimura:"Yes."

Fugazi:"Man, how long was I out?"

"Did I graduate?"

Nishimura:He goes to let Eirjiro respond but gains a look of annoyance at Fugazi's second question

Eirjiro:"You're back. You were only out for a brief minute."

Fugazi:"...FUCK." he walks out

Nishimura:He gives a chuckle

Eirjiro:He rolls his shoulder, then turns to leave

Narrator: As the two leave, Oscar catches a glimpse of them from his eyes, with two students leaving the staff building making him a bit suspicious as he had come to understand that they were strictly forbidden from this

Oscar:Oscar seeing this he decides to investigate them a bit with his drone. Taking it out of his bag he sits back and begins piloting after them from above.

Kyuu:As it flies up, Oscar notices someone walk over to him, questioning

"S'cuse me."

Oscar:Oscar doesn't really acknowledged him for a while until he gets the drone flying behind them.

"What's up man?"

Kyuu:"Would you happen to know either a guy named Uchino or Fitz?"

Oscar:Oscar takes a couple seconds to think. His eyes roll up into his head for a second before rolling down and looking at him "No I've never heard of them."

"Why?"

Kyuu:"Hmm.. They're my boys.. Well.. In a way, I got a message for them."

He looks around for a moment

"Seems like no one around here has seen either of them."

He looks to one of the larger buildings and says

"Well, sorry for bothering you."

With that, Kyuu begins walking away

Oscar:Oscar gives him a wave as he leaves

"Good luck on finding them man. Might want to talk to some of the information people around here. They would be of more help I'm sure."

Kyuu:Kyuu pauses, looking back to him, questioning what he means by informates
