Oho, so this lovely maiden's name was Meredith Hillard? Hmm, he could play around with that name for days with his witty quips and flirts. And the softness of her voice... she was a shy one, just like the boy with the long hair from what he presumed... either intimidated or just as shy as the cute lass, it didn't matter... or maybe it did? Hm. The his lips began to curl up even further as he gave them a toothy smile.

[color=f26522]"Meredith Hillard, eh,"[/color] he mused rubbing his chin with a glint in his eye as he slightly tilted his head quizzically. [color=f26522]"A fitting name for such a merry maiden,"[/color] he chuckled, moving his hand away from his chin and up towards his head as he brushed some hair away. [color=f26522]"And with such a cute look such as yours, you might just send my heart up and over the hills."[/color] He moved his hand away from his head, rolling his head a little back as put his hand onto his hip, rapping it a little.

... hmm? Eyeing the boy, Lukas thought he might of heard the young man murmured something, barely catching what he said. [color=f26522][i]"Sigurd, eh,"[/i][/color] he listlessly thought to himself... and in that time he managed to cook up something ingenious... of course, he would still need to break the ice with this shy boy, but the outcome would be sooooooo worth it.

[color=f26522]"Huh, son of Sigmund, slayer of Fafnir... my my,"[/color] Lukas giggled a little as leaned in, invading both their space as he studied the young man. [color=f26522]"What a hefty legacy you must carry,"[/color] his smile diminished a little as he began to cool down, looking on one side of the boys face and then the other before backing away, raising his hand, shaking it.

[color=f26522]"I kid, I kid... [i]though it would be marvelous if you did have Gram,[/i]"[/color] he whispered the last part to himself, shoving one hand into his pocket...

[color=f26522]"Anywho, m'name is Lukas... Lukas Kunze,"[/color] he declared with a bit of flair as he pressed one hand onto his chest, smiling at the two... before going strangely quiet when saying his surname.

He blinked for a few seconds, looking both over, his eyes growing slightly large before he clasped his forehead melodramatically. [color=f26522]"Ah crap, I didn't realize,"[/color] he muttered just loud enough for the duo to hear.

[color=f26522]"... m-my apologies for interuptin' you two,"[/color] he stuttered a little, holding his hand up to his mouth as he shook his head, seemingly in shame. Huffing, he turned his head to the side, whipping his finger back as he pointed to the back of the sleek tram. [color=f26522]"Y'know, I'll just go and let you two lovebirds share some alone time together, sorry for gettin' in the way,"[/color] he stared downwards, awkwardly frowning as he looked at the floor.

... and now to play the waiting game... Lukas could seldom imagine how flustered they might act as he kept his calm.[hr][h2][color=0072bc]~ Adriane Kunze ~[/color][/h2]

The piece didn't even last a minute as she devoured the piece with no qualms, leaving only a few sticky bits of chocolate on her hands... hmph, she would wash it off when they got there. Licking the remaining puddles of chocolate from her fingers, she eyed the young man sitting right by her. While she could of just sat there, patiently waiting for the ride to end, she was more or less curious about what he was looking at...

... then again, that would just be impolite... plus she could always mess around with her phone... had a few apps to pass the time... a few pictures she could reminisce on as well. Popping open her bag, she fiddled through the items within before procuring the device... but noticed the boy next to her staring down the hallway at...

Oh god why?

Scrunching her nose, she winced a little as she saw her brother being stupid. Shaking her head a little, she just wanted to go over there and stop whatever madness was about to occur... but honestly, he would probably ignore her pleas or drag her into it all.

Sulking a little in her seat, eyebrows furrowing as she buried her eyes into her phone and began playing around with what she wanted to make her new background... but not before muttering one more thing.

[color=0072bc]"God damnit Lukas,"[/color] she hissed venom from her lips, trying to figure out whether or not to choose between her friends in some Final Fantasy 7 cosplay or Madoka Magica cosplay as her new background.[hr]

[b]"Welcome new students!"[/b]

The sudden blare startled a few students into silence, causing them to temporarily end their quarrels. Some turned to look at the speakers situated above some of their seats... others winced from the sudden surprise at it all... but for the most part, whoever was talking had gotten most of the students attention.

[b]"Apologies for the rude awakening... I'm sure most of your are confused as to what is going on and why you are on a tram with these other random students,"[/b] the disembodied peppy voice cheerfully exclaimed.

[b]"Well, to clear up the confusion, there was a Terms and Conditions page before you sent the letter in to ATLAS. I'll just speed up the process and brim it down to what it says in a nutshell, m'kay?"[/b] The voice cleared their throat; the sounds of clicking and a few papers being ruffled could be faintly heard in the background... and even an electronic sort of whiz as well.

Thirty seconds passed by before the voice returned. [b]"Basically, in order to keep the locations of our prestigious Academies a secret, we are hereby required to put you all into a drug induced slumber. Any items you carry on your body will be with you the whole way, promise... our agents are meticulous in ensuring you get here in one piece."[/b]

The voice giggled.

[b]"Oh, and don't worry, we have already prepared your lodgings, as well as making sure some of the items you packed and shipped were safely set in your rooms. Your books, desks, clothes, consoles, suits of armor, all were safely delivered... but before any of you can get rest we will... require something of you all,"[/b] the voice ominously slowed down, the tone slowly changing from one of a more welcoming nature to one that was ready to get down to business.

[b]"When you arrive, you'll be served complimentary breakfast and then taken to our school sanctioned arena where we will evaluate you all."[/b] The voice stopped, letting it all sink in as some students began talking amongst themselves about this all... this was a mixed bag of reactions from the looks of it...

[b]"It's nothing too serious, we wish to discern how well you can control your powers... it's a lot worse for the teachers, trust me... anyways, that's all I have to say for now. Enjoy the rest of your trip!"[/b] The intercom crackled a little, signifying the announcement was over... before coming to life a few seconds later.

[b]"Oh, and you all will be arriving at Palladium Academy in less than three minutes; again, enjoy the rest of your trip!"[/b][/center]
