[b]"Who might you be if you're asking?"[/b] Vincent asked looking at her dress. Tsukiko had a hard time finding the words to answer Vincent. He struck her suspicious side and made her somewhat aggressive. She continued to look at him like that as she boldly said only her name. [b]"Tsukiko. Tsukiko Ikushirou."[/b] Keeping her introduction with him as blunt as possible as she stared him down with her icy cold gaze. When she was about to say something else to him from what she recalled earlier Ben approached her which drew her attention completely away from Vincent.

[b]"Excuse me Miss...Tsukiko, one of the teachers believe you lost something in the fusion class room. When I was off jogging I found one of the teachers on their way here and offered to bring the message too you. If you'd like I can accompany you there."[/b] Ben said professionally and calmly as he gave off a rather simple and truthful appearance but he winked at the girl quickly as to signal he was just trying to get her out of her current situation. Tsukiko took her attention away from Vincent and looked at Ben with some suspicion until Hayato said in advance to what he has just said. Well, he looked like he was going to say something which struck Tsukiko as odd then didn't say anything at all. Then he finally said it to her that Hayate had informed him that Tsukiko left something on the desk in the Fusion Room. [i]What ever could he mean?[/i] She questioned in confusion while keeping that thought to herself. After that, Tsukiko didn't know what to say to Ben and when she tried to get a word in the poor girl was interrupted by Leander.

[b]"A Duel? Sure, I'll come watch! Um, unless you wanna come too, Tsukoki?"[/b] Leander said, mispronouncing Tsukiko's name. Tsukiko did not like the way Leander just pronounced her name. She thought about taking her fan and letting him have it over the head when she managed to regain her composure turning away from Leander and accepting Ben's request. Besides, if she dropped something she better go see what it was she dropped or if it was left in the Fusion Room better go see what she left in there by accident. This struck her as very strange since she didn't normally leave things that belonged to her behind, but this was her first day so about anything could happen. She turned her attention for a moment toward Shinrei who was being confronted by some mysterious and yet unfriendly looking blue haired girl and he was carrying a black haired girl in his arms. [i]Oh boy, what is my brother...[/i] She thought to herself then nodded shrugging off the thought. [b]"Sure."[/b] Tsukiko said as she tried to smile toward Ben even though she felt very uneasy at the moment. Her emotions were spilling into her like a flood and it was hard to keep them all in check. The loneliness and sad eyes that she normally hide somewhat was able to leak out from just her eyes. [b]"I wouldn't mind at all if you accompanied me. Might also put my mind at ease. I am kind of... Well..."[/b] She said with hesitation as she had to pause at the end to stop herself from saying something that she didn't want. She tried to shake off her the emotions that were trying to cut their way through her tough demeanor, [b]"Let's go, Ben. If I lost something I better go retrieve it. Might be really important and if I don't go do it now I might regret it later."[/b]

She turned her attention toward Leander as she paced off when Ben toward the exit ignoring her brother who was also there shouting from a distance. [b]"Sorry Leander, I have an errand I must run. Hope you have fun dueling Vincent. Sorry I can't stick around to watch you."[/b] She tried to let Ben take her hand, but something inside her wouldn't allow any boy to get too close to her yet. They approached the exit where they walked by her brother and two other girls, but she reminded Ben just to ignore what was going on. It wasn't a good idea to get involved with her brother and it might anger if they do so. [b]"So Ben, is it, correct? We are going to the Fusion Room..."[/b] She paused for a moment then noticed that one of her Void Dragon cards was missing. That almost made her flip out, but she remembered what her brother told her a long time ago. You don't want to lose your composure or you will give a bad impression toward other people around you. [b]"Oh no! My third Void Dragon card... You don't think that is what they were talking about, do you?"[/b] She questioned as she was worried toward Ben as agreed to jog alongside as they may their way quickly toward where the Fusion Room leaving the Action Duel arena behind in the midst of their own background.
