[IC] Dangan Ronpa: Reloaded

[Haru Nyan]

Rio Andersen - No Way Out

Not a moment too soon, Maria approached me and asked if we could explore together. Now to be frank, I was a little, actually no, I was VERY skeptical of her action...How do I know she won't lead me into a secluded place somewhere in the building and kill me right then and there? No, I shouldn't draw conclusions from my own doubts. Besides, I might manage to learn a thing or two about this devout, I've been so caught up with my work that I barely forgot that religion was a thing. Yikes, if my auntie heard that she would've killed me!

Maria mentioned something about her monastery having hidden tunnels from underneath and quite frankly, that was something I didn't know of! Huh, I'll have to put "Monasteries" among my places to visit once I get out of here, of course my priorities being Italy and Japan, but I digress. I nodded to the nun, trying to keep an upbeat attitude, besides, if she was such a stickler for her sacred rule book then she probably won't hurt a fly...Emphasis on "probably."

"I didn't know monasteries had that, but you're right. Let's move out."

I said, while exploring the huge building. After exiting the Gym, I booted up my card to see what destination we should head to first. In a friendly manner, I asked the devout where we should start. One of the most obvious choices would be the Junk Room, probably hidden among piles and piles of garbage no doubt. A restroom could also work, but with the two of us being female, we won't be able to explore the boy's room for any possibility of said hatch and/or exit. Although, it could also appear in places where one would least expect it...Say, the bathhouse! Maybe there's some sort of tunnel that's hidden underneath the hot spring! Nah...That sounds way too far-fetched.

Liisi Avedarci - The Scent of Salt

Listening in as Rio spoke, Liisi could see the sense it made. There may, may be a way out, but none of them would find anything by standing around. Her air of elegance dissipated, and her very few leadership instincts kicked in. While she wasn't a good leader, she supposed that she would be good at selecting companions to travel with. Watching as the fashion designer left toe gym with the devout, Maria, Liisi thought about running after them. Deciding against it, she stayed in the gym, looking around the rest of the students.

"It'll be safer to move in groups of three, so nobody can try anything. Not that anyone would, of course..." She looked around again, Rio was lucky to go with the devout, someone so religious probably wouldn't try something. Now... Does she choose powerful people or harmless people? Does she go with, say, the gardener and collector, or the assassin and the critic? Pondering her choice for a moment, she came to a decision.

"Kiragi, Donovan, would you be so kind as to accompany myself?" She asked, giving both of them a small smile. The chef was quite proud with her choice, and she was thankful that she would have the chance to nab one of the most useful students. The other... well, he may have his uses. A critic could most likely point out any small details or flaws that most of them might miss, all in all, a kickass trio. 'If they accept, which they still might not.' She thought to herself, hoping that the two would follow the same train of thought and see her own uses.

Xavier De La Fontaine - Beginnings

Xavier was taken aback when someone approached him. Taken aback might've been an understatement, but he was shocked. He noticed her as being the artist, Elizabeth Remington. She seemed friendly, at least, and the fact she seemed shy like himself put him at ease.

"O-Oh..." He trailed off, unsure of how to respond for a few moments. He noticed that a few people had started talking again, talking about splitting up. "I'm okay, thank you for worrying." He said, proud of himself for not stammering or stuttering like a nervous wreck, as per usual. "Do you w-want to partner up with me? I-I mean, unless you have a friend we can trio with... I promise I won't try anything, so if you're okay with just us two then I am too... U-Um..." His face flushed a little more at his rambling, Xavier knew that he could potentially seem shifty, and he just wanted to make a friend. Besides, he didn't know a third person, and he didn't know if Elizabeth did either.

"W-What I mean to say is... Doyouwanttopartnerupwithmetoexplore?" He said, his words fumbling together.

[Scallop]

Cynthia Arabara - Age, Regret, Reward

This was all going very fast. Not that she was complaining or anything, Cynthia was just taken aback by the pace at which the events were progressing already. People splitting up...it was really like they were trying to be a team already. This made her kind of smile, as she watched everyone. Everyone had talents they could use well, she wanted to help too! But like gardening was a good skill in a place like this. She sighed. She didn't want to die, and even then, people probably knew how handy she was with a pair of garden shears. Being a murder suspect was nothing she wanted...so to that logic she didn't want any killing. Not that blood scared her, it just didn't sound like a good idea.

She wasn't sure how to intorduce herself to anyone else now either, everything was going so strange. She saw some guy panicking, seemingly trying to engage in some social act. Somebody did say trios...and there were only two there...it would be appropriate. She walked over to Elizabeth, Ultimate artist, an activity Cynthia always thought was beautiful and Xavier, Ultimate Collector. She was intrigued to what kind of things he collected...

"Uh, hello there, may I join you two...you seem nice to hang out with and I'm sure our going together could help us grow an idea of whats going on" She smiled at her own pun and curtsied slightly to them.

[Majoraa]

Alice Eason-Lavender town

Seems the others have decided to look around the area either for a way out,or...I dont know. Rio and Maria seemed to be paired up first and looking for somewhere to start. Strange partership. Liisi asked Donovan and Kiragi to be a trio or something. Elizabeth was asked to be in a group with Xavier and Cynthia too.

"Sigh...Im a one man party once again." I said as I
kept watching others pair up while hugging my knees. To be truthfull and fair,I kinda feel out of the loop.

Elizabeth Remington-Song of Storms

Processing what xavier and cynthia asked,I answered "S-sure.." I mean,a group doesnt sound that bad..but I still need to be aware. I looked at alice,'she seems lonely...or not,i cant really tell' i thought. "so w-where are w-we going first...?" I asked my group.

[Haru Nyan]

Donovan Michaels - Zero Escape

I couldn't be bothered to even care about the last two who introduced himself, one's a nun and they're no fun. The other's some magician, I don't know, and frankly I could care less. Why couldn't the academy admit someone who was like, I dunno, Ultimate Master of Unlocking, maybe they could get us out. Or some Ultimate Digger or Driller, so we could dig ourselves into civilization again. Ultimate Explosives Expert? Bomber? Heavy Weapons Guy? Nothing that could actually help us force our way through or make an exit of our own?! Damn it, the more I think about that, the less stellar this academy becomes. Maybe that screaming guy from earlier was on to something, at this point, I'm about to scream and shout my head off from frustration alone. Then that chic chick suggest we go split up or some crap. Yeah, because that always works in situations like this, right? I rolled my eyes at the concept, there's no way there's a secret exit or some shit. Get real.

But to my utter and complete shock, everyone was already forming groups to try and explore this wretched academy. I'm just glad the nun went with that fashion girl, I'd hate to have her around me. Now, normally, I'd go solo in this kind of situation, but that cook approached me and that surgeon and asked us to join her. I weighed the options...If there's three of us and one of them decides to go all homicidal, at least one of us would be able to witness it first-hand and inform the others, in the state that they're in, I'm pretty sure they'd believe it. And while going solo would significantly reduce my chances of getting killed, going in a trio would even it out just as much. I've got nothing to lose. I shrugged and accepted the offer.

[MechonRaptor]

Kiragi Yoshikazu - Cognitive Dissonance

It was quite the turn of events as everyone began introducing themselves after me, and some faces were better met with content than others. One whom I didn't particularly enjoy was the Ultimate Assassin. It goes without saying that I'd be at odds with her as she kills and I save lives. Granted, I don't really care at the same, as she is merely a harbinger of death, killing those whom destiny has decided can live no longer. Then there was Maria, that nun... Something about her made me feel uneasy. Had I done something and failed to save one of her family members? No, I'm certain I haven't operated on any nuns or religious individuals of importance, and seeing as she is the Ultimate in her religious attitude and beliefs, I can only assume she will never be the killer. In my own opinion, none of these other students appear to be willing to kill, and they're even talking about finding a way to escape.

It was quite foolish in my eyes. There must be a reason that bear is leaving us unattended, and I doubt he'd make the fatal mistake of giving us an exit point. If he was truly serious about wanting us to murder each other, he would be sure to make it so none can escape. But that was hardly a problem. There was an engineer who could build us various contraptions to waste time, maybe even build a device to help me while I preform surgery. An Actress could pass the time too. We'd have the best clothes from the fashion designer. The chef would make us exquisite meals. They could have a life of luxury here if they saw it, even if it may grow stale. I know my fellow classmates won't attempt to murder anyone, so I'm rather fine with this situation.

So when Liisi requests I explore with her, I humbly smile back after Donovan's response. "It would be an honor to accept request. I only ask we try to find an infirmary room on chance someone attempts to injure another."

[aeuternus]

Liisi Avedarci - Prelude

Whilst waiting for response from her chosen companions, the girl noticed another group forming a way off. The Collector, Painter, and Gardener. Nowhere near as trustworthy and practical as her own group, that was for sure, perhaps one of the three would go crazy and kill another. It wouldn't surprise her, it's quite easy to put on a shy facade. Shaking her head quickly, she noticed the assassin. Now, while one might not exactly enjoy the idea of being around someone paid to kill, Liisi couldn't help but think. Someone of her standard could most likely off any of them if she so wished, and yet, part of the Chef thought that perhaps the Assassin might become the most innocent of them all. After all, if someone was killed she would most likely be the first suspect, so what would she have to gain by killing?

Turning her focus back to the two males, she noticed that Donovan had accepted the offer, albeit not formally. His hygeine and mannerisms still irked her, but they were the least of her issues. Kiragi, on the other hand, seemed much more pleasant. Actually forming coherent words and not looking glum. "Of course! Finding an infirmary should be a high priority." Liisi responded, trying to keep a sweet tone in her voice. Inside, she was itching to go find a certain room. A kitchen. But how does one ask to find a kitchen? It had little-to-no use to the rest of them. She would have to find that on her own later on, provided she was still alive and kicking.

Booting up her student ID for the first time, she groaned inwardly as she noticed the information it listed. Were her measurements, including bust size, really necessary? Taking a small breath, the girl navigated her ID quickly, pulling up a map of the first floor. Something told her that even with this map, there was still potential to get lost. The Chef made her way over to the door of the gym and waved her 'teamies' over, resisting the urge to tap her foot impatiently.

Xavier De La Fontaine - Companionship

Xavier was, once again, at a loss for words. Another person had approached, and said that he and Elizabeth seemed nice. Oh god, oh god, he hadn't thought up a protocol for this. What was he supposed to do? Answer back? Say that she seems nice? Pausing his panic for a moment, he'd noticed something she said. Looking closer, he realised that she was the Gardener, Cynthia something-or-other, and what she said was the best thing he'd heard all day.

"Gardener...Grow...I get it, you're punny!" He exclaimed with pride, pride at both being able to speak out and making his own pun, even if it was one of the oldest ones in the book. He lowered his hood slowly, wanting to seem as friendly as possible, and not a shifty man wearing a hood. "I think we should check out the storage room, maybe?.." He trailed off, he wasn't really sure where to suggest. Saying the toilets or bathroom, or even the dormitories could seem shifty. He looked to both Elizabeth and Cynthia in turn, hoping they'd either agree or come up with a better idea.

[Majoraa]

Elizabeth Remington-Song of Storms

I heard Cynthia's garden pun and gave alittle giggle cause at least someone was trying to lighten the mood. Xavier suggested we should check the storage room first. It seemed abit of an odd place to search first,but i shrugged it off (alittle was still on). "S-Sure,I dont m-mind..."

[Doc Doctor]

@UnknownScarlet4

Louie trudged up to the small group, holding a Twinkie. He rammed the Twinkie into his mouth, cream filling smearing over his cheeks. Frowning, he then seized the front of his shirt, and with a growl, tore it away from his chunky body.

"Okay, which y'all jus' called me fat? Huh?"

His titties jiggled menacingly, but such a terror could not compare to the empty unknown of his pitch-black belly button. How deep did it delve? What mysterious things lay inside? Good things? Bad things? It was impossible to know without reaching in. The temptation was both mildly arousing and partially frightening.

[Savo]

-Joseph Takuma : Serenity and Agitation-

Rubbing his eyes as the shorter boy responded, Joseph kept that same warmth in his smile as he let his arm limply fall down back to the side as the younger man stumbled on his words. The Matchmaker only stood lax, listening as he put the ball of his fist to his face, tilting it somewhat, as if he was attempting to discern a love interest for the teenager, a perfect on to be precise. Glancing over at the entrance to the gymnasium briefly, he soon return his attention to the panic struck boy who finished his first response. With a light nod, he sympathized with the boy, even if the reaction was somewhat over the top.

"I can only wonder how everyone else is handling this whole conundrum of conspicuous consciences continuously clammed to the call of killing," he pondered for a moments notice, recalling the other remaining Ultimate's on the field within. Since they weren't in there, god knows what they were formulating on the time of their import. Regardless, next came the introductions; equivalent exchange to an extent. As the boy bumbled and stumbled for a few seconds, he continued to offer him a smile, despite how deprived he appeared.

"Acute Magnananananen, eh," muttering to himself as he tapped his lip for a second, absorbing the information and associating with the new face... it was sort of like angles! Maybe he had a brother called obtuse? That would suck if he had a brother... spotlight hoggers they are.

Hmm?

Oh, right, math guy is talking to you... maybe he could give some tips in arithmetic, because he could really utilize some numbers, especially with calculating the maximum velocity a spork could go after being hurled by a two ton heavyweight champ!... wait, getting things mixed up again, discipline and focus, heed now!

From what Joseph could discern, Mat H. Matics, or as his real names goes by, Acute Magnanananen... Magnanan... Megaman... lets just stick with Acute for now, less difficulty enunciating his surname... but still, this guy was the Ultimate Linguist? He recalled this omniglot and his menagerie of languages, but there was something else... come on brian... grr... what was it?

...

"My senses nevertheless seem to be piqued, indomitable acuteness; you wouldn't happen to find the opposite gender attractive, no?"

... really.

REALLY?!

Out of everything peculiar he could of spurted out, that piece of randomness came out? His fist was balled up, save for his thumb which remained erect as he pressed it against his lips, squinting at the nervous boys lips. A smirk crossed his face as he bent his back, lowering his height along with leaning somewhat closer to the nervously. If bishi sparkles could be a thing right now, they would probably be appearing right now with a serial weirdo on their hands.

... before he returned to his original height, snickering a little, a faint friendly smile instead of a conceited grin was relocated onto his face. "Heh, is your mind toying with alternate scenarios now," Joseph questioned as he rubbed the back of his neck, one of his eyes closing as the adjacent glanced at the side. "If so, then I did something right, yeah! Got your mind of the situation with Pedokuma, or Monokuma... oh."

As he raised his arms upwards, they faltered at the short lived victory as he came to the conclusion that mentioning your plans to try and make someones fears dissipate was not the best solution... like, at all.

"And now there's the likelihood of misconceptions on hand now... excellent." Frowning somewhat, Joseph put his right hand up to his rhinion and pinched it as his hand began welling up into a fist. Eyes were closed, seething disappointment as he began to mutter out his remark to all of his... ridiculousness.

"Apologies if I caused you some distraught... I think I just made things worse trying to get your mind off of what is currently transpiring." Shifting his arms, he crossed them, looking at the boy with a mild smile once more with gaping traces of lingering irritation (at himself). Shrugging, he tilted his head back at the entrance of the gym, before gazing back at Acute.

"Sooooooo, you wanna get back in there and finish introduct-"

And then interruptions were accidentally in order once again! HUZZAH!

Bursting through the doors came the fashion plate (who looked prominently hot in his eyes) and... one of the sleeping chicks in the gym. Blonde, golden hair, and other features, but none more prominent than the blue gown shrouding most of her body. Wow! She looked like a nun! Maybe... just maybe...

She was...

The Ultimate...

Cosplayer?! Wow!

"... no, assumptions are bad, get to know her first before conceiving whatever notion of Ultimate she is!"

Joseph returned his attention to Acute, but not before jutting his head in a manner of fashion stating "hey, wanna meet up with those two?" Well, in his head it was like that, but a simple nod like that could be other things, especially with that simple smile placidly placed on his personnel.

... still, maybe Acute could be a couple with Rio! Not like the Ultimate Matchmaker would have a chance anyways with like... anyone; pshaw!

Linguist and Fashion Gal...

He'd ship it.

... but first thing was first, the most important thing had to be taken care of!

Finding out her name! You can't ship people without knowing their names, of course! Gotta get those combos in yo!

...

Oh, right, and searching for an escape route out of this supposed murder making mess of a school system. Judging by the way they are composed, they both seemed settled and not at all disgruntled... that just made Joseph the more relaxed, despite the intensity this situation should be having on him. Tranquility would return, one way or another... he could only pray that it was by smiles and friendship versus taking the bears words too literally...

Then again, could they truly be taken in a metaphorical manner? Truly ominous, like how he appeared before disappearing...

Wait...

Did any of them bother to check behind the podium?

[Majoraa]

Alice Easson-Lavender Town

I must have been sitting in the same position for an hour, cause I felt my legs go numb. I looked over to the trio group and saw a...strange man harassing them, asking who called him fat when NO ONE over there did. Elizabeth looked a bit scared and hid behind the other two. I wanted to help, but my legs may fail me, so I needed to strategize. I decided to make pierce hold the burden for them. "Hey, Little mac, that guy over there called you fat, not one of them!" I yelled to him and pointed to the ultimate illusionist.

Quickly, I grabbed Elizabeth and hid behind the curtains of the stage.Whew, that was a rush...anyways, you ok Eliza?" I asked her before falling to my knees. it was rude for that guy to just bluntly waltz up to them and ask them about his weight without giving them mercy. he skipped introductions, so my guess is that he is the Ultimate Lazy Person cause he had no shirt on. Elizabeth nodded yes to my question."Good, we are gonna hide here for now..is that ok with you?" Elizabeth nodded again and sat in front of me.

Elizabeth Remington-Song of Storms

when all seemed good and all, suddenly a rude man without a shirt suddenly came over to my group and asked who called him fat. it made my nervousness grow into fright. so I hid behind Xavier and Cynthia in hopes that I wouldn't be noticed. then I heard Alice tell him that someone else called him fat. then she quickly ran over, grabbed my hand, and ran behind a part of the curtains. she asked me if I was ok, and that we are going to hide here if its ok with me...I nodded yes to her questions, surprised that she cares, and sat down with her.

"Alice,a-are you ok..?" I asked her, caused she seemed bummed out about something.

[SlimeySlime]

Acute Magnanen- - Reality sets in

After managing to let loose a short-lived flow of words, I finally felt relaxed. That too, was short-lived. This guy poured out a torrent of words and phrases containing various inflections, contradicting messages, and more. Though I do consider his tongue rudimentary, the message is conciliatory and, rather than receiving consternation, I can appreciate it. Whoever this Ultimate is, he certainly seems overtly comfortable in his shoes. Perhaps overly comfortable all things considering. I wonder if this guy even listened to Monokuma's speech with how nonchalant he's acting. First he mispronounces my name, which is no surprise, my name is quite difficult. Next, he asks me my sexual orientation out of left field. Instantly, my pupils dilate and mind goes blank. Totally shocked, I sit speechless.

He rams through though, with a classy smile and pervading, ubiquitous presence. The Ultimate mentions that he was able to get my mind off the killing. I drop my jaw in confusion, before realizing he's completely right. Just for a couple of seconds, I had utterly forgotten about everyone's latent potential for murder, an impressive feat, no doubt. But he doesn't stop there. His next conquest includes mentioning the fashionista and religious girl exiting the door nearby. His facial expression indicates a desire to go talk to them. Slowly, his motives begin to crystallize in my mind, yet I still would not like to jump to any incorrect conclusions.

Nervous like before, though having my mind successfully taken off the pernicious situation, I nod in agreement meekly and get up off my feet. This mystery kid, I don't know his name nor his title. But at the present juncture, such details are unnecessary. Plus, I can't find a good way to ask him right now. I guess I have a propensity for awkwardness. "Uh.. Sure!" I reply not really knowing what I'm agreeing to. This won't end badly, right?

[Scallop]

Cynthia Arabara - Arrividerci

Cynthia was almost overjoyed that the two of them agreed to go with her, as she would be the first to admit she didn't expect them to accet her sheepish attempt at an invitation of adventure, that ebing one of her more...weaker areas. The girl seemed, nice she guessed? She wasn't alll that good at judging people, plus wasn't it like kinda rude to judge people based on their first words and actions, even though many of them had told each other what their talent was and all that huge shebang.

She smiled lightly at Xavier and Elizaeth. Xavier, he seemed like a good guy. She wasn't sure what he collected but man! He got her jokes! Hardly anyone ever got her jokes! A huge grin spread on her face as she stood by Xavier. Her brain raced, yes, she had to come up with jokes to fit him now! It would be perfect! People always loved it when she made puns and jokes that related to them, that was usually what she did when she was back in her garden!

She tilted her head and walked forwards, in hopes the other two would follow her. "C'mon then! To the storage room right? We better be careful in case a huge giant box drops on us!" She smiled wide and patted down her flowery dress that had a few grass stains on the hem.

[BioHazard]

Pierce Lavigne - Bounce-O-Rama

The gym was such a chaos at the moment... After our principal character, Monokuma, announced that we had to kill on other everyone seemed to be stressing out and fall into despair. Not me though, I was casually observing everyone with a grin on my face. Killing someone was something that only a few here were capable of doing, so it wouldn't be hard to figure out who. And being "trapped" here didn't sound as bad as possible. There were lots of cute boys attending this school.

I wouldn't mind playing doctor with Kiragi, him being a surgeon after all, a charming surgeon. Acute seemed rather cute and probably has a fast tongue. Joseph, another fine addition to the crew, and possibly also was interested in boys? My gaydar really went off with him and his messy hair. It didn't matter that I didn't know his talent yet, maybe it was something really... interesting. Xavier also looked rather cute... his shyness made him adorable.

From a distance I heard someone call someone else fat. My attention immediately went to the girl who said it, although I couldn't remember her name out of the top of my hat. But it was obvious towards who the remark was, I immediately looked to, as I could personally say, the ugliest boy here, a big black obese man with a twinkie in his hand as his current victim. He probably was better at making that twinkie disappear than me. However when he asked who called him fat the girls immediately pointed at me and fled the scene.

I chuckled when the big man would turn his attention to me. "Sorry not sorry, but I wasn't the one who called you fat. However who could blame them for doing so, because you really are darling. Nothing against your color or anything, I had black dudes before... but none of them stuffed themselves with food all the time. Even I, as an illusionist, couldn't make that belly disappear." I said probably mocking the guy, but it was better to be honest and mean than to lie to someone in their face.

Maria Oathkeeper - Dive into the Heart

Rio and I departed from the gym, leaving the others behind. I could faintly hear a female voice speaking to the others but could not quite understand what she was saying. I instead turned to Rio again who asked where we should look first. I was not fairly well known with the mechanical device that had been given to us. After all I never got the experience to hold such advanced technology.

"I can not quite figure out how this machine works." I said while holding the student ID in my hand trying, scared to press any buttons. "There should be a map on here somewhere, right? Can you please look? I will follow you. I can remember that it at my monastery the junk room had a tunnel leading to the outside. Back in the day it was used for transportation, that is why we have one. Although I am fairly certain something like the Vatican has underground tunnels as well."

As I was following Rio to the junk room, who'd probably had also taken the lead by now, I wondered something. I couldn't be the only one afraid of the situation we were in, right? But Rio looked so chill, like nothing was going on. They however were with only the two of them... was Rio going to make short work of me? "Rio? I can trust you, right... you are not having any intentions of murdering me? You just seem to calm, it gives me mixed feelings."

[Haru Nyan]

Rio Andersen - Dumpster Dive

On the way to the Junk Room, Maria made another mention of her glorious Monastery's mystery tunnels, and really, I still can't quite grasp the concept of how and why a monastery would require such a path, maybe it's for emergencies only? But you don't see or hear that kind of thing in real life and it's usually limited to all those books and movies "exposing" some mystery about the Vatican or some other cliche' storm. Maria also had some difficulty operating her ID card, I don't blame her though. Surely, she must at least know some form of advanced technology right? There's no way in this day and age someone can be totally inept when it comes to modern tech, right? Oh I'd be surprised, probably get shot down for it too. But no matter.

Heading inside the Junk Room, it wasn't exactly what I expected to. There's one of those barrier-like things used in malls when it's closing time, a furnace behind it as well as the usual stuff you'd find. Trashcans, bins, garbage bags. With a limited area for exploration, I began to search what little I could, anything that might've resembled an exit or opening. I was even brazen enough to open some of the garbage containers in my futile search but nothing out of the ordinary. I cringed, I DEFINITELY going to need a long bath after this, it's not fashion forward for someone to smell like garbage...But I might be on to something, why not make trashy clothing...out of trash itself?! I slapped myself for that, that's stupid, ridiculous!! I could only hope that Maria had found something but even she seemed stumped. She approached me again, asking me if I was going to murder her! Preposterous! In the most calm voice I could manage right now, I began to reassure her, but not without some witty banter.

"Oh trust me, I'm far from calm. A fashion designer is rarely lax, I'd even say you're lucky, Maria."

As I stepped forward I could hear the sound of metal from below me. Curiously, I looked down to see a hatch just right there! Wow...That was actually pretty easy! Is this what I think it is?! Calling for Maria's attention and crouching down, I began to examine the hatch and forced myself to pry it open, but with no luck...Maybe there's someone strong enough who could open it? Or do we get out some screwdrivers and bust it open?

[Aquaknight]

Ryuji Tachibana - Frost

After several long moments of silently looking at the locked blast door, Ryuji finally gotten up from his horror, although with shaking knees and sweaty palms, he will survive, since it's all he has ever known. He started to walk down the hall away from the blast door as he decided to wander the halls of the supposedly prodigious acadamy until he has his words all thought out and he can finally introduce himself to the rest of the classmates. He should leave out his past if he is to be accepted in this group, he has done many terrible things in the name of survival but he will not kill anybody here without reason, he doesn't want to kill anymore.

In his aimless wander which couldn't have been much longer then a few minutes he found himself in a room labeled the Junkroom, out of his better judgement he walked him feeling like he should be with his follow kin, Random and worthless junk. But when he opened the door and walked into the room he yelped as he sees two girls in the room. Ryuji stood paralyzed in fear of the two girls, they could kill him right here and now and all they have to do is throw him into the garbage disposal. His face was white with fear and his palms were getting sweatier and sweatier until they were soaking wet.

"...Um...Uh... W-wha...hum...uh... a-are... ah..." Ryuji sputtered out a series of shuttering that couldn't be tranlated sp he tried to speak again but his words are still scattered and try hard, "W-what are you two doing in here? .. Did you two feel like junk too?"

Maya Malik - A Future Worth Fighting for

For awhile Maya stared blankly at the middle of the gymnasium trying her best to process her current predicament in a constructive yet reasonable manner on herself. Maya looked over the gymnasium and glared at the podium for a long moment then she simply walked out of the gym without a word or a glance at the reminding few in the room.

Maya silently walked down the hall giving the locked door a look as she knew the teddy bear's words is enough proof for her. Maya walked long enough until she found the main hub of the building which looked to connect to a kitchen and farther down the hub was a series of rooms that looked to be the private chambers for each of the students as well as a laundry room on one wall facing away from the kitchen, Maya simply walked to the kitchen and walked past the dining room into the main cooking part of the kitchen and opened all the drawers to look for what she needs.

She found it. A drawer full of knives of various sizes. All perfect for killing or in Maya's case, self defense. Maya hid a small knife within her Sari, easy to get yet hard to see. Once the knife was safely obtained and hidden away, Maya closed the drawer and looked in the nearby fridge and picked up the closest to perfect apple and walked out of the kitchen like she didn't pick up and is hiding a deadly weapon on her person. For her desire to believe these people won't go on a killing spree her thoughts decided she should arm herself if she wished to stay safe if somebody attacked her.
