Miles nodded. "I'll be sure to give the classes a good run before trying to use a tutor. It'll just be good to know who to go to if I need to." He said. He nodded again. "I appreciate that." When he asked about her class, he nodded a bit. He remembered Aren saying that when they had talked before, but what caught his attention moreso was the fact that Kane told him he would be paired with a demon. That had potential to be problematic, but it also could be good too. He nodded. "Okay. Thanks for letting me know." When they got to the classroom, he noticed a few girls already in there and he raised a brow. It wasn't until the other woman spoke that it was revealed that these were lunch detention kids. When Wilson spoke to him, he nodded. "I did. Do you mind if I set my books in here for now?" He asked her. When she said she didn't, he just set them on the shelf nearest the door so they weren't in the way. The interaction between Kane and Wilson made him raise a brow, but when Kane said she would show him to the cafeteria he smiled a little. "Nice meeting you, Ms. Wilson. See you in class." He said. Truthfully, he hadn't realized he was hungry until Kane mentioned lunch. "How often do new students get lost here? This place is huge." He kind of laughed at the end, but there was truth in what he said. The school was huge, and had he not ran into that Clary girl, he may have never found her office at all. He noticed students filtering into the hallways not too long after and they were talking about something that had happened in gym from what he could tell. "[I]I know. The shifters tend to stay to themselves. For one to have started a fight is a big thing.[/I]" "[I]It was Devin… he always has it coming. I mean… he did almost get killed last year. Had Billie not-[/I]" The name made everything go amiss to him. It had to be coincidence. There was no way Michael would knowingly send him here if Billie Sanders were here. Especially given the failed assignment that had him out on duty in Heaven for so long… He wouldn't do that… right? He shook his head, and he noticed they were at the cafeteria. He thought Kane may have said something to him and he looked at her. "Huh? Sorry. Thanks for showing me here. See you in class later." He said. He got in a line to get something to eat, and after he did, he sat a table in the corner, but everything stopped for a minute when he saw her come in with another girl with dark hair. Billie was here. "Fucking sick joke, Michael." He mumbled to himself as he tried to make sure he didn't get seen. As much as he wanted to talk to her, now wasn't the time nor the place. -- Ryan had been zoned out, but when she looked back to see the look on the person's face she couldn't help but laugh. "She phased through me once. It was a very interesting experience." She laughed. Clary nodded. "Yeah… I've done that more than once. Apologized profusely after, but Harriet always laughed it off. She might have always had someone over, but she was so understanding of things." She laughed. Clary frowned. "What is she bitching about already?" "Not getting any?" Ryan guessed. "Honestly, I left last night when she got too bad and I ended up sleeping on that big rock by the lake." Clary made a face. "Don't do that! Come find me next time, you can use my bed if that happens again, or we can find a place for you to sleep. You'll get sick that way." Ryan smiled a little. "Thanks Clar." She looked at Zaddie. "Really? That would be awesome. I can normally deal with it, but since my brother isn't here anymore and I said I'd do a double room, it's an adjustment." Ryan nodded to Heather. "Oh. That doesn't sound like fun." Clary bounced a little. "I had lunch early, but I'll come hang out." Ryan heard Zaddie's answer and smiled. "Well, you want to join us? We could still eat outside, it is a pretty day out, and I love being outside anyway." Clary bounced more when Zaddie said she would. "Yay! New friend lunchtime is always fun!" Ryan chuckled. When the class was over, she and Clary had taken a little longer in the locker room than usual, but that might have been a good thing. When Ryan went to leave, she saw a fight breaking out and she quickly ushered Clary back in the locker room. "Let's wait a minute. Someone is getting their ass kicked out there, and I know you don't like being around that stuff." She said. Clary frowned a little. She looked around for Zaddie. "Did Zaddie already get out of the locker room?" "I think so. I'll go find her. Meet us by the cafeteria, okay?" Ryan said. Clary nodded and phased through the walls to get out. Ryan left the locker room and she found Zaddie pretty quickly and let out a sigh of relief as the fight got broken up. "Hey!" She smiled. "I sent Clary ahead since she can go through walls and doesn't like fighting. She's going to meet us at the cafeteria." -- Billie was glad that sparring was a bit more relieving than stressful, especially having Randa as her gym partner. However, the scene that unfolded was one she had definitely not expected. Especially Colten rearing back and hitting Drake, who took the punch about as well as one could. She noticed Tiff laugh a little at it, and she couldn't help the small laugh she let out either. Randa has mentioned that Colten hated Devin, but never really gave a reason, she just knew it came about after their double date last year. She nodded. "Yeah. Randa knows how to calm Colten down, but I know how that fucking parasite he's beating down is." She said. Once things diffused, she nodded to Tiff. "Lunch." She said. It was obvious to Billie that Randa would no longer be joining them, but she'd fill her in later. When they got to the cafeteria, Billie was surprised at how… empty it was, but she could hear everyone talking about what happened. She rolled her eyes a little. Yes what happened was shocking, but she was sure it was well deserved. The people behind them wouldn't shut up about it, and she turned. "Hey. If you're going to talk, how about talking quietly. Some of us can't even think with how loud you're talking." She said. The girls nodded. It took her a minute to realize that they were both demons, and she sighed. "Sorry, Billie." One said. "Yeah, yeah. Just be quieter about it, okay?" She said. The girls nodded. Billie was only getting so irritated with it because this was how shit got started, and she didn't want that to happen. Once she and Tiff got their lunches, she sighed noticing how empty the hallways were. It was nice, and once they got to her dorm, Billie opened the door and motioned for Tiff to go in. She sat on her bed and sighed. "So, where do we start?" -- Maggie was so glad that Erin was back but before much longer the fight broke out and Maggie sighed. "You missed a hell of a lot." She said. "Yeah. They've… encountered each other. I'll tell you more later, it's a fucking shit storm." Ez looked at Brooke, now kind of glad she had told her it wasn't so much moving stuff as it was just organizing it, but she still felt bad. And seeing how Colten had just punched Drake when he tried to break them up was just as crazy. When Brooke explained what happened, Ez's eyes reddened. "He is getting to be worse than Tony was." She mumbled. Maggie smiles to the girl. "I don't think he will. Long knows Colten pretty well and knows he wouldn't have done something like this without reason." She said. "I'm Maggie, by the way." Cole nodded. "Yeah, sis. It'll be alright." She helped her heal her arm, and when she declined the invitation to lunch, she nodded a bit. "You're still coming by the greenhouse later, right?" She asked before Brooke took off. Cole turned to them and smiled a little. "I need to go check on Drake, make sure he is alright. But thanks for the invite. I'll catch you guys later." Ez nodded and waved a little. Once Cole headed off she sighed and looked at Maggie. "How much did we miss? I know Drake told me about some kind of feud?" Maggie sighed as they began heading off. She noticed Ez looking at the guy that Brooke had gone to talk to before they headed off towards the cafeteria. "So you remember when Randa went full ass stupid and dated Tony a couple years ago? Billie had a similar lapse and started dating Devin." She said. Ez ran a hand over her face. "Why?" "That one Randa could answer better, but shit blew up. Alex almost killed Devin because he hurt Billie, and that's what caused this feud. Jackie wouldn't listen, plus she kind of hates Billie anyway, and yeah." Maggie answered. "But one good thing came of this whole feud." "A good thing?" Ez asked. Maggie nodded. "A big and bad enough fight broke out, and Glenn got kicked out." Ez blinked. "That pain in the ass is gone?" She asked. Maggie nodded. "Yeah. Another thing to ask Randa about. She got so bored last year between Billie not listening to her and with Erin and Garret gone, she started he shit up again. I think she might've had something to do with it." When they made it to the cafeteria, Maggie scanned the room to see if Randa and Colten were in there. They weren't and she frowned a little. How bad was that going? -- After finally being dismissed from Long's office, Colten looked at Randa as they stopped off at his dorm to drop his bag off before going to get lunch. "I really hope Kajun isn't too mad about it." He said, and Randa rubbed his back a little. He was still really tense, but soon they came across a very short girl with pretty long brunette hair. Randa raised a brow a little at how well this girl was navigating the school because she would remember seeing someone like her around. "Hey, you know where Ci- I mean Ravenwood is?" She asked. "In a meeting with other teachers. Hopefully it won't be too long." Randa answered. The girl nodded. "Gym office." "Thanks!" The girl smiled. She watched the girl gently tap Colten's back before she left. "Chin up, buddy. Can't be that bad." Randa and Colten both turned, watching the girl disappear when she turned into the next hall. They both turned to head off, and when Randa touched Colten's back she felt the tension gone, and she could see he looked a little more relaxed. "You good?" "Yeah. After that girl touched my back, I just felt calm." He said. "It's weird." "Very." Randa said as they headed towards the cafeteria. She saw Colten's gaze find Kajun and she patted his back. "I'll get your lunch, go sit." Colten nodded. "Thanks, Ran." Randa nodded and went and got in line. Colten sat by Kajun and sighed. "I'm sorry, man. I couldn't control it. I saw what was happening and I damn near went primal." He put his head in his hands. It was weird being this calm after being so close to primal rage, and he would have to find that girl later and thank her for whatever she did. He noticed his lunch get set in front of him and Randa sat down with them. "Don't mind me, I just want to make sure he's good." She said. Another hand on Colten's shoulder caused him to jump and he saw Drake there and he put his head down. "You have a hell of a hook, man." Drake laughed. "I'm sorry." "Dude, don't be. I knew what to expect. Just glad you seem calmer now. Cole said Brooke is outside if you wanted to check on her." Drake said. Colten gave a slow nod. "The girl…" "Oh! Right." He said. Colten looked at Randa who was waving at Ez, Maggie, and Erin. "Oh darling babysitter, can I go?" "You're a big boy, Abs. Unless you'd like a chaperone to go outside." Randa laughed. She saw the look he gave her. "Oh come on, you had to chaperone me a few times, you have to let me give you shit for finally having to be yours." Drake shook his head and laughed. "Sal and Cole wanted to eat outside anyway, so I'm already heading that way." Colten nodded. "I'm going to eat first. I feel weird." Drake nodded. "See you out there then." Randa got up and rubbed Colten's back. "Catch you later. I've got a little sister to see." "Later." He said. He put his head down again. "If you want me to talk to bitchpire when that inevitably happens, just let me know. I will. You shouldn't have to for my fuck up." He said to Kajun, barely realizing what he said until after. "Fuck. I mean Jackie. I swear I've been around Randa too long." -- Alex nodded. "Not a bad idea honestly, especially if you get taken off guard and can't think straight." Alex said. He nodded a bit at what she said, but he also knew Colten from when he and Randa dated. That guy wouldn't have done anything unless necessary or provoked. He shook his head. "Nah. Let's get going." He said. When she took his hand, he led her out of the gym the other way. He was glad they got to the cafeteria before the main crowd, but as people filtered in, he could hear the buzz about what had happened. This was only such a big thing, most likely, because of who was involved. Shifters, while a very large group, stayed out of shit and more often than not got looked over. "Want to eat out in the courtyard?" Alex asked Jo after a bit. "It's a pretty day, and honestly, it's too loud in here for me to think right now." When they got up, he noticed Billie and Tiffany in line together and he chuckled. "Looks like our sisters are getting along well." He said. While he didn't doubt that they would after very briefly meeting Tiff, it was still good to see. -- Julian sighed as they headed off and nodded. "Not already anyway." He chuckled at what he said about his nephew. " Believe me, I was kind of surprised too, but with Randa and Maggie here too, I think that sold him on it." When he answered about Azura, he nodded. "I don't blame her for not wanting to be in Hell right now, Mark said it was a shit show. But it'll be good for you to have a TA again, how long has it been?" When they got into Robert's office, and the situation was laid out, Julian could only shake his head. He noticed the look on Cian's face and sighed. Devin had been giving him issues since he started at the school. Robert sighed when Cian asked about the girl, glad to hear that Cian would take him for detention. "Thank you. And it was Brooke Hatty." It seemed to dishearten Cian slightly, but Robert sighed. "That might work, but even if someone volunteered, they'd have to realize how much work it will be for them. Lively is somehow worse than newly turned." He said. Soon he saw DeAndro come up to the door and knock quietly. "Yes?" DeAndro sighed. "Oh good, three of you at once. Aren wanted me to bring you each these." "Another new arrival?" Julian asked and the second he read the name.on the page his eyes blackened. His voice came out deeper than normal. "What?!" DeAndro nodded. "It is why Aren wanted to meet with you sixth period." After that, DeAndro left and Robert raised a brow. "You okay Julian?" He asked. "Have you looked at the name?" Julian asked. "Goodson? What the fuck?!" The ground shook slightly, but soon it stopped and Julian composed himself again. They both seemed slightly confused by it too, and Julian pinched his nose. "Who wants to bet that he's going to ask me to tell Randa?" Julian sighed. He got up. "I'm sorry, I need to-" "Punching bags are all set up." Robert said. Julian nodded, and when he left the room he nearly jumped at the sight of a short girl leaning against the wall on the opposite side of the door. Azura. "Well that explains suddenly being calm." He muttered. "Nice to see you too, Julian. Dad says hi." She smiled a little. Julian nodded and headed over to where the punching bags were, and Azura moved herself from the wall when she saw Cian come out. She ran her fingers through her hair and smiled at him. "You know, I was just going to smoke into your office, but I decided to not scare you this time." Robert poked his head out and blinked a bit when he saw Azura. "Hello." He said. "You're welcome, by the way. This place is a lot more ragey than my first go around. Already pulled from three people. New record." She said, and she looked to Cian. "Got some free time? I'm still waiting to talk to Aren again. We have to finish figuring out my classes and I still need a key to my dorm. Whoever brought my stuff in didn't have one, and I guess my roommate had to let them in." -- Reginald sighed as he sat there grading papers, Kingsley curled up on his desk asleep. He reached over and gently scratched behind Kingsley's ears before his eyes glanced at the stack of papers for new arrivals. He had been warned that the first week was like this, but after DeAndro added another paper to the top of that file he wondered about the influx now. He shook his head before a knock came to his door and he saw Kingsley perk up. "It's opened!" He called, not looking up when the door opened until he saw Kingsley jump off his desk and walk over and rub against the person's leg. He set down his own and got up and smiled. "I guess I should go through that pile finally. Good to see you, Knox. What are you doing here?" He asked. Kingsley was purring very loudly as he kept rubbing up against Knox's leg. He meowed at him and Reg could on laugh at the interaction. "You know it's easier if you're in human form, King?" The glare he got from the cat made him laughed, but soon Kingsley backed up and shifted back. "Plus you asked me to be in human form for the next class anyway." He yawned. "Good to see you, Knox."
