I brush the bit of snow that fell on me off. My clothing isn't cheap; I would know, as it is tailor made. Of course, I'm the tailor, but that is besides the point. I wonder what going on this year; the lockers have apparently been removed, which strikes me as odd. Even though some students will find this as nothing more then another neat little challenge to overcome, others will struggle, carrying five times what they normally would. Oh well; I can just materialize what ever I need - or wish, for that matter - by whistling. Of course, any musical referent would work, it's just that whistling is the most convenient.
I grin at the scene around me; the snow has covered everything by now. It strikes me as interesting - perhaps even symbolic - that although snow is light, weak, slow and fragile, it still is capable of covering everything it wishes. It is ever so interesting.
And as much as I would love to sit here and analyze the beautiful scenery, I'm sure class has begun by now. I stand up, and snap my fingers. In about a half hour, the snow will stop falling, and the clouds will go away, leaving the sun to shine. Ten minutes after that, all the snow on the ground will have melted. Oh well. I begin to head to the school entrance, curious as to whether or not I'll run into those pseudo-twins.

Damon:
I see a guy holding a metal umbrella walk over, peculiar.
" Hi, Damon. A pleasure to meet you. And indeed we need to get inside." I use the tendrils to pick up my bags again and begin to head inside. I stop and turn back to Yuuji and the others.
" Hey are you- wow that's beautiful, did you do that Yuuji?" The colours are so vivid and beautiful. I'm in awe of the rainbow's beauty.

Bell: I’m about to shoot off a snarky remark at one of the tweedles when the other steps in, stopping my reply. It was a good one, it would have to go in the bank with the others. She blathers out some crap about me not meaning what I said. She obviously didn’t notice the eyes. I know they are turning a deep orange now out of agitation. I hear the words, “You didn’t mean anything by that, did you? I’d hate to have to rough you up. I might tear your pretty dress.” I can’t help it, I laugh. “You?! You’re going to tear my dress up. This is silk. Taffeta silk. Imported from halfway across the world. You’d probably have to sell your house just to pay the shipping fees. Yeah, sure, I didn’t mean it. I guess we can go with that, but you might want to think about who you threaten. This school is interesting, lots of people you won’t want to cross. “Now that we have our pleasantries in order. I’m Bell Dee. I don’t really care about your names, but you can tell me on our way inside if you wish.” Amelia: Raiden walks off with the umbrella and I go to follow him, not really sure where else to go when I see across the garden, at the front of the school a girl getting out of a taxi. I sense something curious about her. My fingers tingle and I pull out my notebook and write. I pay no attention to the forming words until I know there is no more. It says, Luna nearly slips and falls, catching herself she stops to admire the fall. I look up from my notebook to see it happen. She collects her thoughts and after a few more cautious step she falls, her bags landing in the snow surrounding her. I look up to see her still pondering and decide to run over and help before she hurts herself. I sent a quick, Are you okay if I leave you alone for a bit? to Ainsley and speedily make my way over to the girl. “Would you like some help with your bags?” I ask her, struggling to keep my voice above a slight whisper.

I scowl as the girl sees right through my bluff, but I don’t reply. I see something small and white float past my eyes, and blink in confusion before chasing it with my gaze. I was right, it was a snowflake. There are more of them all around. It shouldn’t be snowing, I’m not dressed for the cold, I could catch hypothermia like this. Dom suggests we head inside.
“Yeah, right behind you,” I reply, as we walk to the school doors.
I decide to ignore Bell Dee as she tells us she’s not interested in our names. No reason to give someone like her a gift she didn’t ask for. Or one she did for that matter. If she doesn’t feel like socializing, that’s fine with me, I don’t much care to socialize with her either.
Turning to Dominique, I ask, “Hey, do you need some help finding your classes? I know how big this school is when you’re new. I remember my first day I felt like I was Theseus, you know?” Wait, was that a classical mythology reference? It was, wasn’t it? I can not believe I let that slip through. I’m usually more careful than that.

Raiden: I watch as Damon picks up his bags with these dark tendril-like things. Cool. I then see a rainbow near my feet. Yuuji. I am actually excited for school...never thought I'd say...er, think that. I hoist my black bag over my shoulder and walk past Damon, following the croud inside. Without looking back, I motion to the entrance. "Come on guys! Don't wanna be late on your first day..." As I arrive at the steps, I remember that I am still carrying the umbrella-bench. I morph it into a plain metal ball and stick it on the ground. I'll come back for it later...hopefully no one notices the missing object from the garden. I then finally take the steps into the building.
Yuuji: "Oh, yes I did. Thanks. I seem to have gotten lost in my own thoughts." I let the snow fade back to its original hue. I notice that the snow is letting up a little anyway. Raiden then goes off on his own, ahead of us. "Well, I guess we should follow. We still need time to get our classes." Carrying just a black shoulder bag, I begin to head inside, assuming the rest will follow.
Luna: I suddenly slipped and fell forward on the cold, snow covered ground, my large bags dropping around me, and my small one, which my tail was holding, flying in the air and landing on my head. "Ow!..." I did not see that coming. At least my bags are water proof, and I didn't have anything hard and heavy in my small one. A small girl made her way over. I stood up and brushed myself off. Luckily I wasn't too wet. "Thanks, but I should be fine." I try to collect my bags again, and it seems I may need that help after all. "Um, maybe, if you don't mind. That would be great!" I give her a big smile of appreciation, and hand her one of my smaller large ones. "Ah, that helps a lot. I'm Luna, by the way. What's your name?" I noticed she seemed a little quiet, but that won't stop me from making a new friend!

DOMINIQUE
I listen to the brat moan and whine about anything and everything. She is so infuriating.
" Honey, if you don't check yourself I'm going to knock you on your Taffeta silk. And sorry dear, but I didn't care to learn your name either."
I turn my attention to Typha. " Yes, I need a little help, I'm utterly lost. Well if you're Theseus, I think I know who the minotaur is....right Bell?"
I smirk at my joke and begin to walk towards the school.
-------------------
DAMON
Good point, I wouldn't want to be late..I hate tardiness. I hurry up to follow Raiden.
"So where do we go? I know nothing about this place's locations." I hope that someone, anyone among us will at least have an idea of where to go. I see a sign that says the meeting place is just around the corner.
" Guys it's this way!" I lead the group around the corner. Around the corner is a large common room of sorts. Many students have already gathered in the warm, welcoming red room. Gold accents are spread throughout the luxurious looking room. A gathering of adults stands in front of all the students, probably the teachers and other staff. I find a place to drop my luggage and I stand.

(OOC: Okay, so this is dead for now.But I'm here to save it. I will be posting as the headmaster.)
I stand looking at all of the new and returning students. There are so many, or varying colours, sizes, shapes...talents. I can't wait to learn about each and every one of them.
" Hello students! I am your headmaster, Headmaster D'Albert. That is what you call me. My grandfather created this school many decades ago. Now this is my school, to teach you all, to help you learn of how you are special, and how to use your talents to their fullest, and use them properly. I look forward to learning from all of you as much as I hope you all learn from me. But enough of my speech. I expect you are all excited to get unpacked, you will find your room arrangements on the list on the wall behind me. I shall leave you to that. Classes start in two hours everyone. Have fun, and hope you start off your year here well!"

As I enter the school, I hear a speech..
"Hello students! I am your headmaster...
Room arrangements behind him? Oh well. I decide to wait until everyone else has checked theirs. I don't want to go to check where I am to sleep only to be surrounded by people. How annoying that would be.
"Hello students! I am your headmaster...
Oh! I was curious as to where I would stay; now I can find out~ The list...
I rush to it, wanting to find out were my room is. Maybe I'll even meet some of m friends on the way.

Raiden: I confidently walk inside, when suddenly I realise that I have no idea where I'm going...I end up following Damon. How did I miss that sign! We end up in a red and gold room, already filled with students and teachers of all shapes and sizes. I shuffle in beside Damon, and listen to the headmaster talk, slightly zoning out. I tend to get bored easily. ...If I knew that class would start in two hours, I would have come later! Ugh, I could've slept in too... Well, we still have to unpack I guess. As soon as the speech ends I zoom toward the sheets with the rooms.
Yuuji: We all follow Damon (I obviously a little further back...to play it safe), and arrive at a common room. It's very beautiful, the gold accenting the red. I hope my year starts off well too. I wonder who my roommate will be...
Luna: I still have a little trouble carrying my bags all the way to the door, but it's a lot easier with Amelia helping. She doesn't talk very much, but that's ok. I'm grateful for her help. We make it inside and follow a sign around a corner, my eyes on the ground, focusing on not tripping over myself again. As I look up my ears (cat ears) perk up as well. "...It's so pretty!" Just as I remember. A voice brings me back from my state of awe, and I hurry toward the croud of people, not wanting to miss anything. Although I'm farther away from the front than I would like, I do get to put my bags down. Ah! Why must your arms hurt more after! Rubbing my arms gently, I stand on my tip-toes to get a better view, even though I've been through this already. I always love seeing the headmaster. The speech ends and everyone rushes to find out their rooms. I'm about to join them when I realise that I still have all my bags, and I feel my ears droop...Oh well, I'll just wait until there's less people.

As we near a large group of students, I shake my head at Dom. “Now don’t do that, or you’re no better than she-…” I trail off as the Headmaster speaks.
“Shh, shh!” I instinctively say to Dom, not because of any noise she’s making or is prone to make, but because Aggie, my best friend from years past who left the school for another life, used to speak up during the Headmaster’s speeches. I never really liked Headmaster D’albert; every time I see him I’m afraid he’ll look up my transcript and kick me out of school. There’s also the creepy way he takes an interest in all his students, but I figure that’s excusable given his job.
As the Headmaster finishes speaking, I nod at Dom. “As I was going to say, the first thing we do is come take a look at the list over here.” Actually, the first thing I was going to point out was the cafeteria; I had forgotten about the list, and I’m pretty sure my face gave me away. I note that classes start in two hours. That means I got to school more than three hours early. Well, early for me.
