The limousine she rode in was rather elegant, yet...it also felt rather foreboding, black, dark as Death's tattered robes.  The obsidian sheen of the vehicle shined amidst the light of the early morning sun cresting over the hills with a gilded shimmer and bathing any and all in its soothing warmth as it rose to signal the beginning of yet another day. The girl, who sat quietly and entranced in thought, her katana, sheathed in a polished black saya, resting across her lap, she sighed a tad bothersome closing her blood red eyes for a moment, then opening them again.

[b]"This is our stop."[/b]  The [url=https://pbs.twimg.com/profile_images/622080525/rikimaru9es.png]man[/url] who was sitting beside her said shattering the demure silence.  Sure enough, as the lovely scenery had fleeted away, the building came into view, such an illustrious academy it was....and yet...she had no reason why she was here.  Only the masked man seated next to her knew. Not long, the limousine came to a halt. The driver stepped out first and opened the door for the two.....and then....into the beaming light of the sun she emerged, garbed in but a simple black and red seifuku with shoes and socks to match.  [b]"Remember what I told you, Kurohime."[/b]

Kurohime, slowly she turned to face the taller man, looming over her like a dark cloud, his voice hoarse...and oh so grim... [b]"Do not grow attached to anyone.  You are here to learn, and that is all.  The fate of the world is not our concern.  If we hear different...there will be consequences."[/b]

[color=ed1c24]"Yes....master..."[/color]  She whispered in reply, tightening her grip on her sword.  [color=ed1c24]"I will not disappoint you..."[/color]

The white haired man gave a curt nod and back into the limo he went, driving away and leaving the girl known as Kurohime to her own device.  With yet another sigh, she turned on her heels and stared up at the massive structure, noting of the others who had arrived so shortly.  Not a word she spoke to them,nor a glance given, as silently she tarried towards the entrance with her head held down.
