Ms. Bells you are all too cute. I don't know what I'd do at this school without you. Come on Ms. Pouty, we don't have to talk to everyone, but you will say hi to everyone. Understand?
Shinu laughed to himself at the quarrel between Anemone and Bells, but could really do nothing about it. He didn't have to take sides, Anemone already made him choose Bells anyways. He stood next to Bells and walked side by side with her towards the group. When they arrived, he felt the need to introduce her to the people he'd known Bells hadn't met before.
Ms. Bells, this is Mr. Hideaki, Mr. Cino, and this young lady I'm not so sure of.
He said this as he looked at the neko girl, who seemed to be quite shy.
Everyone, this is my good friend Ms. Bells. Is everyone enjoying themselves?
He said this looking at Anemone, knowing that she wasn't paying him any attention, and almost made himself laugh in the process. He still hadn't caught on to what she was looking at, but when he did, he figured it wouldn't be anything he'd like.

She listened to the girl, noticing how off track the girl seemed to get. Bree did it a lot to, but not when she was in public. It was sort of funny. "I love this place, its not upper-class boring town, I'll tell you that. It's way better than.. Um.. France." She almost forgot where she was from, because she was so in love with this place, in such little time. "Ohh! I love truth or dare, mind if i join?"
Why is everyone else so quiet? Its like watching grass grow..
She shifted her weight, becoming more comfortable with her surroundings. She wanted to go next in truth or dare.. Because she felt like doing something out there. A dare would definitely liven up her spirits. She looked around for Chris, but he seemed to be missing still.. Her expression turned blank, as she drifted of waiting for there answer.
------------------------------------------------------
Bells wasnt exactly uncomfortable, but she was a little edgy. The enemy plastered this completely fake smile on, and acted kind of scary.. She was a little to happy. So Bells put her over-insanely scary smile on, and did the same to her. "So.. Does yours." She looked down, not even seeing the others in the group.. She didnt want to, or she might have passed out.

"Well thank you Bells." Anemone murmured, "won't you join our game?"
Turning back to Bree, Anemone smiled at the European girl."You're from France?" Anemone was almost beside herself, "where abouts? Paris? Oh, I've always wanted to go to France! This is the furthest I've ever been away from home! Which is pretty lame when you think about it - I'm still on the same Island!" She explained, "but I suppose if you're used to somewhere, you look forward to going to new places."
Smiling for a moment, Anemone made to nudge Hideaki to remind him of his turn, but stopped short. She remembered what had happened when she tocuhed Makoto, and didn't know if the same thing would happen to Hideaki, so she schooled herself, clasping her hands before her. "Sure you can join in. Its Hideaki's turn to ask someone! Come on Hideaki, ask Bree!"

Chris sighed heavily, sitting outside on the roof of the garden shed closest to the dance.
It was rather dull out here. Nothing like the party he expected. Sighing deeply, again, he jumped down, landing. It wasn't that big of a drop, as the building was barely seven foot at it's highest. It was enough to just store tools.
The elemental had been shopping with his roomate, and date for the night, and ad realized that she probably liked Shinu a lot more than him.
He wasn't jealous though.He just went with her for the hell of it. One thing was for sure: he had a new friend.
The teen walked into the area of the dance, smiling as he found his friends.
"Hey guys."
Bree was probably pissed at him, just because he was late. Shinu probably didn't care.
Eh... what could he say? Better late than never,right?
The elemental looked at the group.
"So,what's the plan for the night,kids? Are we going to just sit down, or are we going to party?"
(sorry it's short.)

Cino began to wonder exactly how long he had been at the dance. Certainly it couldn't had been too long however he could tell the day seemed to be coming to an end somehow. Hardly anyone had danced at all, however everyone still seemed to be enjoying themselves just socializing. The DJ looked rather bored with hardly anyone on the dance floor and was probably reluctant to even play a slow song. Now that he thought about he, Cino me quite a few people today that he really liked being around. Perhaps they felt the same way. He hadn't realized that he was doing things normally he wouldn't. It was almost like a slap in the race. The spirit up everyone kind of got a hold of him and he actually enjoyed himself for the first time in years. He didn't feel as sad as he normally did and was rather glad when he looked at each of the faces around him.
Cino finally heard his name and looked to see a handful of new arrivals, mostly girls to the dance. Looking at all the new faces, he hadn't seen Silver at all from his dorm. Perhaps she didn't want to go to this thing as much as he did, but he was enjoying himself surprisingly enough. Cino raised his hand slightly and looked at each of the new faces.
"Oh hi there everyone...I'm Cino." Cino felt a little nervous now with more people around but tried to keep it under wraps. He glanced over at Shinu for a second.
"Please just keep it Cino, no Mr. in front of it." Cino had a slight smirk across his face as he almost began to chuckle a bit before containing his emotion again. His coat had reverted back to its normal khaki color after he had introduced himself and dealt with Shinu.
"So does anyone know anything about the class schedules yet? I haven't gotten a registration form yet for classes." Cino tried to spark a conversation for once which he rarely tried to do in normal circumstances.

Ah well hello Mr. Chris! It's a pleasure to have your good company. I tried to get the dancing started, but we all know it takes the ladies to get it poppin off. How've you been man?
As Cino began to take the initiative and speak, Shinu realized it and laughed as he would once again be confronting the issue of how he addressed the other students with formalities.
Mr. Cino, you'll have to forgive my manners, but being from the south, I rather have no choice. If you aren't a sir, then you must be a madam or a ms. Since you are neither, I'll just stick with stir.
Shinu laughed at Chris again because he was such a good guy and they already seemed to have skipped the discussion about Bree and just got done with it. Cino reminded him of an old friend he had, and he looked forward to learning more about him.
Hey, when this dance is over, I think we all should go off to the outer limits of the island and relax on the beach. Besides, it will just be a better more relaxed place than this and we aren't mingling with teachers anyways. I have a couple of cars if anyone else can drive, they just arrived today actually. I'm sure Madam Anemone could show us to the best beaches. What do yall think about that? No need to end the night so young.

Cino seemed nervous, not as bad as Bells, but definitely sketchy. She smiled warmly at him, not feeling the need to introduce herself again. Shinu started to talk about going somewhere, and the beach did sound perfect. So she went along with the idea, happy at the fact she had bought a new bathing suit before she had came to Kosaka. And Anemone did know the island well, so she should be able to find the perfect spot.
"Err.. Anemone, do you know of any place that you can jump from really high.. Not cliffs, but just high up, into the water? It would liven things up." She whispered the last part in her ear. Bree wasn't a daredevil, but she wasn't afraid of heights.. She loved them.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Bells stared Bree down at the talk of heights. People were one thing, but heights? Was this girl insane. She must have known that she was terrified of everything and anything accept Herbs.. Then again, she could just watch them, as an excuse to be the lifeguard. Then she wouldn't have to get wet. Maybe it would work.
Oh gosh, Herbs? I don't like the idea of heights. At all.. Do you think they would let me stay out of the water? Would Shinu make me get in to have this supposed evil 'fun'? Why cant fun be reading a nice book in the library? That sounds fun to me. Maybe I could just slip away now, and run off and hide in the library.. But then again Shinu wouldn't let me..
She huffed, her hair fluttering up in anguish. She was confused at what to do, so she just continued to stand there, arms crossed.

Well, things are getting busier. Anemone thought to herself with the arrival of Chris. Another student she hadn't met, but he obviously knew Shinu and Bree. So that was good, at least he didn't have to overly introduce himself, and she seemed quite at ease already.
She almost laughed out loud at Cino's request for Shinu not to address him as 'Mr. Cino'. She'd tried the same before, and it had fallen on deaf ears - as it had done so again. Apparently Shinu didn't quite realise just how annoying it was. She grinned to herself, inwardly enjoying her own amusement until Bree asked her about places that could be jumped off.
"Oh... well..." Anemone paused. She knew a lot of good places. The Island was full of them, and being affiliated with the water, it was kind of Anemone's instinct to find good places. "There's a lake with a waterfall. Its not too high, about seven metres I think, and the lake is good and deep. It clean too, so there aren't any threats off getting hurt, or infected with any pollution. There are fish there though - and the occasional terrapin and fresh water turtle. I can show you the way there if you like?" She looked around the group for a moment, shrugging a little.

Bree turned to finally acknowledge Chris, getting caught up in her small chat with Anemone. She wasn’t mad at him, so there was no need for him to worry. But he was late, and it only made her laugh a little. The snort escaped from her mouth before she could hush it, sounding like a pig..
She took out her pen, and doodled a small piggy in the air. There was a small popping sound. The pig floated down to the ground, and began to run around squealing. She had hoped it would startle someone. It walked up to Anemone's feet, and continued to snort and squeal.. She looked up at the sky, trying to act as if she didn’t do anything. The pig wasn’t exactly supposed to do that. She had hoped it would just run around in circles, and look cute. So she took her pen, and poked the pig in its stomach. There was another pop, and the pig disappeared.
"Errrr. Sorry about that..."
--------------------------------------------------------
Bells shuddered when she found out that Anemone did know of a place that had jumping spots. She wasn’t going to participate in these 'crimes' they were going to commit. They weren’t actually crimes.. But the thought of jumping from high up.. What’s the fun in that?
Great. Herbs will get wet, and he hates water. Even if I don’t participate, he’s going to get mad at me for not opening up. So what do I do? If I get wet, I’ll have to leave Herbs somewhere scary, but if I don’t, I’m forced with supposedly not having fun. Maybe I will be the lifeguard who doesn’t get wet.

Cino was getting slightly anxious to do something. He was fine with the socializing for the most part but wanted a little something to happen. He felt his scar begin to act up a little as he rubbed it to make the pain go away temporarily. It wasn't something that normally bothered him and he never understood why it acted up when it did. Cino noticed Bree and gave a slight curtious bow to her as she acknowledged him. Cino heard the talk about going to a beach of some sort. He really wasn't too keen on the idea of getting pushed into the water or anything. He might go, however just watch everyone instead of participating.
Cino's mind then began to wander again for a bit. He wanted to ask one of the girls to dance, however he felt too nervous whenever he thought he had the courage to do so. He refrained from it for the most part.
He noticed then Bells who seemed to be a little frustrated with something as he could see it in her face.
"Something wrong Bells?" Cino asked with some concern in his voice.

Ahh Frick had said the magic words. He smiled at his friend with the horns before turning his attention BACK to the girl he had spotted across the way. She was still there, thank goodness. “We’ll get together later, Frick. Maybe head into town for some drinks.” He gently patted Frick’s arm before making his way over to the group the girl was associated with.
Before he got too close, Zack stopped, adjusted his tie and adjusted his messy hair. Well here goes nothing. “Good evening ladies and gentlemen.” He made his presence known to the group before flashing a grin at everyone there. There was momentary talk of going to the beach and Zack waited patiently.
He politely pushed his way over to the interesting girl’s side. “Hello,” He said politely, with a sly grin on his lips. “My name is Zack and you are?”
Zack took the opportunity to examine her closely. She was absolutely adorable up close and Zack looked out toward the dance floor. “Would you like to dance?” He asked finally with a smile.
-----------------------------------------
Mya remained silent for the time she stood there. More people seemed to pop up out of nowhere and it made her feel rather uncomfortable. The ears atop of her head twitched slightly as they picked up the various conversations going on around them.
Everything seemed so stale. No one was really dancing and everyone seemed congregated into small groups around the dancefloor. But at least this new stranger seemed comfortable. He had introduced himself as Zack and she noticed how he had been making goo-goo eyes at Anemone the entire time he had been standing there.
She felt him touch her arm and she turned to look at him. “Hey sweetie, do me a favor and tell the DJ to play something good. Thanks you’re a kitten.” He smiled quickly and nodded his head before turning his attention back to Anemone. Great… Mya fumed, I’m the gopher now.

Anemone practically jumped back when the pig appeared and started running. She stared at it as it approached her feet and wasn't sure whether to laugh at its cuteness or just stay in a quietly impressed silence.
She was slightly disappointed when Bree made it disappear.
"That." She pointed to where the pig had been. "That is an AWESOME power." Grinning she almost wanted to ask her to make a fish or small shark and see what else Bree could do. But was stopped when she spotted the black haired man approaching.
Oh geez. He's coming over. Oh god. I really hope I look okay. Ah! Anemone. Get a grip!
"Zack?" She repeated, tilting her head after he'd introduced himself. "Its nice to meet you. I'm Anemone." She smiled. She could feel herself smiling like an idiot, and didn't really care right now.
"Oh..." Anemone glanced at the dance floor and then at the group, giving an apologetic look to them, "sure. That would be lovely." She extracated herself from them gingerly, taking ahold of Zack's hand as she did so. As she left the group, she shot them another apologetic look.
----
Frick laughed as Zack disappeared. Typical Zack. Still, at least things might have livened up with him around now. And there was also the prospect of going out to get a drink later, which was promising.
Settling himself back in a chair, Frick took to observing the goings on, just to make sure no trouble started.

Oh boy, this was Zack? As in the headmaster? This did not bode well for Shinu, he was NOT to be outdone by a faculty member. Not with the shoes he was wearing. He was at a disadvantage in age, but he would make up for it in dancing.
Well then, seems like the dancing may very well pick up.
Shinu walked over to Bree and lightly touched her arm by her elbow to get her attention. He held out his hand to her and asked...
May I have this dance madam? If you'll accept, please lead the way.
Moments before he could feel bad for asking her to dance after Zack took the first initiative, he saw the same smile from Bree that he'd grown so fond of earlier and almost completely forgot Zack and his arrogance and pedophilistic behavior.
Before you answer, I just want you to know, you are so pretty. This red dress is absolutely lucky to be with you the whole night. I hope that I could join it in that regards. So, shall we?

Bree smiled as Anemone complimented her power. It wasn’t quite the reaction she expected. She was glad that Anemone wasn’t annoyed.. She seemed like the kind of person you didn’t want to pluck.. At the thought, a man, who had been in the direction Anemone was staring.. Or more like the man she was staring at came over, and introduced himself. His name was Zack.. The headmaster.. She hyperventilated, because he had left before she could introduce herself. She was the girl who had to be on good terms with teachers or principles.. Smoozing was just her thing.
Crap.. I should have said hi before he walked away! Stupid flirty flirtyness.
She huffed, at the same time Shinu grabbed her arm. “Oh.. Sure I would love to.” This was her chance to outdo herself in front of the headmaster. She figured this was payback from him to Anemone anyways, so he should understand. She picked up the pace a little, hoping she wouldn’t trip or fall. Her hand wrapped around his neck gently, the other on his hip. It was kind of an odd feeling, that didn’t seem natural to her.. But she went along with it anyways.
-------------------------------------------------------
Bells looked up, blushing at Cino. He was kind of cute, but she wouldn’t allow herself to think it. It was forbidden in her book to like someone… Cursed by the shyness. “Umm.. Yeah.” She wavered her thoughts in the dance floor, wishing she was as graceful as Anemone.. To get rid of the huffy look on her face.
Wait.. What the heck am I saying? She’s a mortal enemy.. Oh shut up will you?
She had the hard problem of arguing with herself.. It wasn’t easy to break. When Bree also left to dance, with Shinu.. A wave of discomfort swept over her. She had hoped to spend the entire time with him.. But Cino didn’t seem like a serial killer, along with the others. So she guessed it was ok.. She looked up, at Cino’s cheek, not yet brave enough to look him in the eye, and smiled, trying to prevent any murders from happening in her mind.

The music hadn’t really been a problem for Zack. Well except for the fact that it bored him to tears. So he was quite satisfied that the pretty neko girl had requested something a little slower paced. The dance floor was practically empty so that left plenty of room for Zack and his new acquaintance to twirl thereabouts. “Well, Miss Anemone, it is a pleasure to meet you.” His smile was charming and soft, as he gently took her hand and placed his free hand at the small of her back.
He glanced around before noticing another couple joining them. Ah how nice. Maybe the sight of the headmaster gliding across the floor with a student in his arms would incite some more of the students to dance. And hopefully it wouldn’t incite some of the teachers to mutiny against him. He knew that he wasn’t the most popular among the other adults (That Aleksi guy to be precise. Zack still had YET to figure out what his problem was.). And that probably had something to do with the fact that he liked the company of the students as opposed to those stuffy teachers.
But Zack was pretty determined to prove he was a capable leader. But that was for later. For now, he just wanted to concentrate on what was at hand: his dance with Anemone.
-----------
Mya had returned to the group after accomplishing the task Zack had asked of her. And she couldn’t help but feel even more out of place. Some of the group had dispatched to go dance and Mya began to wonder if she would’ve just been better off staying in her room. At least then, she could be lonely in private.
Her tail swished and swayed with her movements before she whirled around, almost unexpectedly, startling other students in the process. “Forgive me.” She whispered before scanning the area. She could’ve sworn she felt eyes boring into the back of her head. Shrugging it off as paranoia, Mya turned around once more and tried to catch a hint of the conversation at hand.
