In tugging manner she was dragging along a roll-suitcase along with the enormous backpack on her back containing all the essentials that her mother found needed for her to have during her time at Ishin. She was strolling over the pavement along-sides the street finding her way to the nearby zeven-eleven that was stationed close to the hotel she had stayed at the night before. Yesterday she had been traveling with the train for over 13 hours and after that she couldn't even find her hotel. That is why she felt dead tired today as well. It was a bit weird for a girl with the age of 14 to be sleeping in a hotel alone. Off course Rin wouldn't be able to afford a hotel on her own so that was sponsored with the complete funding of her parents their money. Rin did already pay the first year tution of school on her own accord with the money she had saved up from working on the farm. She had thought it was the right thing to do, her parents did give her some funding to buy new clothes and enough food on her own even though she did think she would manage without, it was still a nice gift however. Perhaps it was needed at a later stage for school supplies such as notebooks and pens so she did not decline the offer. Rin stopped for a moment and took a 90 degree turn to find the zeven-eleven in her eyesight. She took a soft gulp as she crossed the street and set down her bags in front of the store next to a bench. Japan wasn't a big country of crime yet, Rin was a bit too trusting by leaving her own bags outside just like that. Timidly she entered the store and took the first food she liked to the counter as breakfast. It was a melon bread and a baumkuchen. With a somewhat awkward look on her face she manage to stammer out that she would like a coffee as well and managed to pay without commenting on the Hokkaido accent the store clerk had. Quietly she ate her breakfast outside while watching the cars drive by the street. It was still early in the morning so she had plenty of time to get to her new school, she was already freshly dressed in her new clothes. The uniform fell a bit big on her but it still looked good, she thought. Never before she had to wear an uniform so it did feel a bit out of the ordinary to dress in something so strict as this. The shoes were a bit cramped to her idea but that was because she was not used to wearing these business type like shoes. Normally rainboots would just fit her boat, instead of socks like most students wear Rin wears dark blue tights in order to hide as much skin as she possibly could. Over her tights she wears the standard Ishin uniform which contains a knee length blue skirt and a sailor fuku on top. She wears her long hair in the same way she would at home, kept together with a large ribbon at the bottom. She made sure to look her tidiest today since it was so important. Rin even went all out with applying makeup to the black lines on her joints so that no one would see them on her hands and neck. When Rin was finished with her breakfast the jumped up and pulled the heavy backpack back on her shoulders. Uncomfortably she squirmed around as she tried ignoring the hurted spots on her shoulders from carrying the bag this long way from home. Timidly she pulled a map from the side of the bag and looked over it once more to see the red lined route that was marked on the map from the hotel to the school. It wasn't a long walk but it was quite confusing, even more now from the fact that she strayed off course to buy her breakfast. Rin started walking again and followed the map as well as she could in order not to get lost, although it was a good thing that she tried sticking to the map, she paid no heed to her surroundings! She would occasionally stand in the way of cars or bump against other people. After a while of getting closer to her destination she was dead tired of the many people that she had come across. Tokyo had been hell already with her luggage but this city had too many people as well! When Rin finally arrived at the destination of her map she was dumbfounded to not see the school anywhere. The street names did not match her map location either... Had she gone wrong? Unknowingly she had walked around the surroundings some more and found her way to the entrance of the school by pure luck and following other students that wore the Ishin outfit as well. [hr] Upon arrival at the school gates she was met by a huge building right in front of her face. She had been her once before a while back but it still amazed her to see such a vast looking building. It sure was pretty and huge. She still wondered what all these other structures were and if they would be sleeping in the big building or somewhere else. They had plenty of flowery decorative and trees. It did feel somewhat different than the city she had been walking around in. It felt more like a place of its own. Rin tugged along her suitcase and made her way over to the main entrance. The school seemed like a whole maze on its own. Rin watched around her first to see if they could take their luggage with them inside the school as well before would make any mistakes, she followed the other in with her hefty bags. Like she had thought outside, the inside of this thing was a maze. Rin didn't know where to start or where to ask for the place she was looking for. She tucked away the map that she had held in her hand the whole time and pulled up another piece of paper that was the enrollment paper. Timidly she skimmed over it in the middle of the hallway annoying a lot of people with her wide posture of both her suitcase and bag. Reading over the letter she found out that the opening ceremony would be held in the auditorium. Unknowing of where the auditorium was she strolled around the school through the hallways for what appeared to be half an hour or so. Eventually she had found the so called place by simply following a few signs that she had found at the entrance of the place she entered at first. The ceremony didn't appear to have started and looking at her fold-able phone for the time she could tell that she had sometime to spare as well. Rin decided to sit down somewhere for now. She put aside her luggage to the back of the auditorium not knowing if that was the correct way of doing things or if it was safe to do so. Patiently she shoveled forwards to the front of the auditorium near the podium where a few others were already seated. They all wore the exact same uniform and didn't appear that much older than her. Firstly there was a blue haired girl with a somewhat problem of a wild hair day. A crying guy with a cat tail, she definitly stared at that one for a while. A girl that looked quite wide and someone who could easily kill Rin with a hug and as final a guy who seemed like her mother would ask him to date Rin. Rin promptly decided to sit next to the good looking guy, she didn't know in what year he was in and she knew that it was a thing you would call your seniors your senior but she honestly couldn't tell so she kept her conversation non-biased on year. [center][color=f7976a][b]"D-domo, is this seat taken..?"[/b][/color][/center] Rin awkwardly greeted Chen and asked for the seat but seemed rather unfazed, she didn't show much of emotion on her face when she asked and did try to be as normal as possible. She tried her hardest not to sound like a country bumpkin, at-least is showed that she wasn't from around the region in the slightest. Rin her sight fell on the boy his unusual hair after she was done asking the boy her question. Something to do with his quirk? Rin decided not to comment on it and sat down on the closest place to the boy (if the chair wasn't free next to him she would sit further.) After she had sat down a new girl with too much energy and a too loud voice entered the auditorium. Rin glanced at her for a moment as she awkwardly rubbed the back of her head while lightly nodding her direction in greeting manner. [center][color=f7976a][b]"D-domo."[/b][/color][/center] Said girl did seem to be off quite high standards when she walked past unlike Rin, perhaps she was from the city. Was it normal to greet everyone in the room like that in these parts? It felt quite odd when she thought about it. Rin dropped her eyes back to the boy next to her and decided for some small talk to kill the time. She didn't know what to talk about so she chose the first thing in mind that was perhaps completely out of the mood right now. [center][color=f7976a][b]"D-did you see this city already... It is quite big isn't it."[/b][/color][/center] Shortly after she tried talking to Chen once more one other boy enrolled into the auditorium that made himself known as well. He had blonde hair! He must be from another country right!? She wanted to meet him, his hair and voice were so pretty. Rin quietly repeated the proces of greeting anyone that greeted the entire group of sitting students. This time she blushed a little more however. She had never seen anyone with blonde hair before. Did he dye it? [center][color=f7976a][b]"D-domo."[/b][/color][/center]
