After the ceremony was over, Atsu continued to sit until a mere few students were still trickling out. Human bodies bothered her and she had always hated being around swarms of them. The ceremony itself didn’t impress her. Unfortunately the speeches the Student Council themselves were less than inspiring as well. She had her own personal agenda during her years at the school and it was certainly nothing to do with achieving ranks. The continual droning of success, strength, and seriousness almost annoyed her.

The phone in her pocket went off signaling a text. The notification listed that it was from Kazuo Taoka.

[i]Good afternoon. I hope that your trip to Tatakai Academy went smoothly. I spoke with Mr. Kei and they should be able to make the accommodations that you had requested. Sorry for the delay. Give me a call if you need anything.

Atsu clicked her phone off and slid it back into the pocket of her uniform. Though her father wasn’t as apprehensive as most parents she had met, Atsu grew fond of his detachment towards her. It allowed her to grow and be curious in studies she never knew even existed. It was after all, his suggestion that she attended the Academy to honed down her skills and education before taking on Auxier Enterprise. Atsu had no interest in fighting for or at Tatakai. She merely wanted to excel in her lessons so that she could finish off at an ivy league university. It was all she needed to take on the company and grow it even more than her father had. She wasn’t interested in her classmates, the fighting, nor the ranks. Atsu trusted the fire manipulation “powers” that she was gifted with. It was all she needed to create the empire that her father had always hungered for.

Noticing that the gym had quiet down, Atsu bent down to retrieve her book bag and slung it over her shoulders. Her first class wasn’t scheduled to start for another hour. She took this as a great opportunity for her to get some down time before the lessons began. The library was still undiscovered. Perhaps she would venture there for the time being?
