[Nishinomiya High School courtyard]

The sun was shining brilliantly in the early morning sky as the students made their way into the school courtyard. Friends met with friends and began bragging or complaining about their summer break or what clubs they wanted to join or start. Some telling rumors about the new principal and others simply enjoying the summer day lying beneath one of the many trees in the courtyard.

Various teachers scrambled through the building finishing last minute preparations for the new school year, some with dread others with excitement. Some teachers that had finished sat in the teachers lounge overlooking the courtyard awaiting the principal's speech to the students.

[The Principal's Office]

A tall woman stood peering outside through her office window, her brown hair glistening in the sunlight. A wicked grin appeared on her face as she turned to the door to find her old classmate. A man with short chocolate colored hair that flowed together with his equally brown eyes.

"Taichou, Preparations are complete" he said with a sigh "But are you really gonna g-." he was cut off by the realization that the woman was long gone. With a sigh the man made his way towards the courtyard.

The woman reached the roof, a serious look frozen on her face. The noise from the courtyard seems to mix together into one loud noise, yet the woman breaks into a stride and took hold of the single microphone stand.

"Listen up!" she shouted suddenly, the students below went silent with their hands flying immediately to their ears. Once she saw that she had their attention she continued "I have no interest in any of you ordinary students If there are any aliens, beings from the future, or super-humans, come to the principal's office. That is all!"

Teachers, students, and everyone passing by looked on with confusion as the woman made her way towards the stairs.

"Haruhi..." Kyon muttered ruffling his own hair as he stepped forward to give the real inauguration speech.

After a rather lengthy speech by Kyon, whom the students had decided was the real principal, the students were given their class schedules.

"There will be a short intermission before class starts please take this time to get to know one another" Kyon said calmly "classes will begin in 1 hour." setting the microphone back on its stand he sighed and walked off stage.

Aiah stared up at the platform and looked back at Amaya with a weird look on her face.

“I guess she meant you,” then began to laugh softly, fondly recalling that Amaya knew how to read cards. Watching as the new Head-mistress and Vice-principal exit the stage, Aiah eased back in silence.

As the crowd began to disperse, Aiah began to pull on her tie, undoing a button on her shirt as the heat began to radiate around her even more.

“At this point in time, I really wish I wasn’t cross-dressing.” She admitted, fanning herself with her hand as she turned to her friend Amaya. “By the way, that new Head-Mistress sure is weird…”

Recalling the events only a few minutes ago, she couldn’t help but laugh to herself, remembering how peculiar the introductory speech of their new Principal was; then sighed happily.

“But you now what,” Aiah smiled, looking up the sky with her right hand shading her eyes, “I guess this school would be more interesting with her around, don’t you think?”

Amaya looked from the platform to Aiah with a slight shudder "I guess so..." she said trying to think of a retort for Aiah's earlier comment. "Crazy principal for crazy students" she muttered finally with an added glare at Aiah.

"So if she's the principal than he must be the vice...I wish him luck" she whispered to herself looking at the brown haired man as he traveled from place to place around the courtyard.

Finally her eyes came back to rest on Aiah "Ano..." she began to say before gripping her arm "perhaps we should head into some shade before you get caught." She scanned the courtyard and eventually dragged her to a large tree near the gym.

Her hands began to tingle as she thought of the new principal and vice and her cards seemed to burn a hole in her pocket. "So...Aiah-san do you plan on joining a club this year?" she said hoping to distract her mind from her addiction.

[ARC]Aruka

Aiah slowly slid herself down, watching as the schoolyard clear up with all the students going in all different directions to find a place to stay for the meantime. And then, Amaya suddenly came up with a question out of the blue- she looked at her for a good moment then began to chuckle.

“I would, but mingling around with extra-curricular activities in this school would surely blow my cover.” And not a split-second past her answer, her face became sullen, but tried to smile assuring her friend.

“Y’know, I’d join any sport related club, but well, you know the details. And the Literary cum Newspaper Guild is loaded with a bunch of snoopers, so if they find out I’m a girl, I’m sure they’d be tailing me around 24/7 to try and get an evidence and post it all over school.”

Pulling her legs close to her, she asked Amaya back the same question. “How about you? I’m sure you’re not as problematic as I am with regards to joining clubs.”

Amaya nearly bit a hole in her lip "Sorry, that was stupid of me" she said with a bow "I didn't think before..." she trailed off and the area faded to silence.

Finally she spoke up to answer Aiah's question "I'm not really the club type..." she mumbled her hand once again itching to grab the cards from her pocket "I get nervous quickly around people I don't know...remember when I met you?" She sat on her knees in the grass and looked at her friend remembering the fool card incident with slight grimace.

Finally she scooped the cards from her pocket with a sigh of relief and went through her usual ritual of humming as she place the cards into 3 rows. The top most row consisted of 2 cards, the middle row 4, and the bottom 2. "Let's see" she said to herself with an odd confidence "what type of person is our principal."

Her hand glided knowingly over the 4 cards of the middle row. 'only a half reading' she thought, trying to create an excuse. "Wheel of fortune, empress, the fool, and the moon" she said aloud "She will cause an abrupt change to our way of life, She will be the cause of a great creation, the beginning of..." she trailed off and frowned "A lot is going to change..." her hands danced over her cards as she collected them back into a pile. She blushed slightly muttering "Though I'm probably wrong".

Amaya sighed with relief and stood up "Aiah-san, are you thirsty?" she chimed, her mind focused after her psychic withdrawal.

Kazuki Ichiyama put a hand over his glinting eyes as he stood in the courtyard of his new school. New to the area, he was still very much in awe of the place, despite it being similiar to many other high schools he'd seen before. There was just as many people here as in his old school, and though he had felt sad to have moved from his old home to come here, he was just as easily cheered up with the prospect of making entirely new friends. In fact, the need to make new friends had been overwhelming him since he had arrived. Kazuki had made quick friends with their neighbors, but as the apartment his family had rented was smack dab in the commercial district, he had not had the opportunity to socialize with kids his age. It was a need, and he was well aware of that. And this need was demanding satisfaction.

He heard the announcement from what he could only logically assume was the female principal. He barely managed to cover his hears to muffle the obnoxiously loud volume of her voice, but even then Kazuki could not help but hear the entire announcement. Aliens? Time travelers? Super-humans? He expected such things from other students, but to hear it from the principal was unusual, assuming it wasn't a prank from someone decidedly mature. Thankfully, the female voice went away, followed by the more reassuring tone of a man who seemed to know what he was talking about. When he heard the other students around him concluding he was the real principal, he could not help but agree.

As soon as the speech finished, he had been asked for his name by one of the senior students acting as volunteer prefects, and promptly handed his class schedule right after. He wanted so desperately to talk with the sempai, but Kazuki could see that they were all rather busy with the other freshmen students, and could not afford to spare any single student any extra time. So, who could he ask to help him find his classes? Looking around, he could see that most everyone seemed to have already bunched together, overhearing some stuff here and there indicating that they were all locals and/or went to the same middle school. As the groups formed, it became deathly evident to Kazuki that he was all alone. The need began to consume him, the need to bond with someone - anyone!

Grasping his class schedule with one hand and his school bag with another, Kazuki started moving, roaming, wandering, starting with the courtyard, then all around the campus. It would seem to others that he had been moving aimlessly, but not to Kazuki. The need drew him in certain directions for some reason not even Kazuki could understand. For now, it drew him to a curious pair sitting beneath the shade of a tree by the school gym. The need would not allow him to leave the apparent couple alone, and as if with practiced precision, he made his introduction:

"Hajimemashite!" he said with a sharp bow, in a near excited tone. "My name is Kazuki Ichiyama, and I'm new to this area and this school. I was hoping I could ask you for help in finding my way around, as the sempai seem rather busy."

Only after making his presence known did the need decrease, partially sated. Now that he had regained his composure, a quick glance at the scene made him realize that he had probably interrupted a tender moment between lovers, and quickly made an apology. "Oh, I'm so sorry, I didn't mean to interrupt your private time. Please forgive me."

Despite this, the need would not let him just leave.

Karu Beamed from the other side of the tree, his hand gliding hastily over his reporter's notebook 'Rather inattentive ne?' he thought sweating in excitement 'just the kind of story I need to claim a spot on the school newspaper.' Suddenly realization struck and he withdrew a small silver tape recorder he had gotten from his father 'I need actual evidence after all.' With a snicker he eased the recorder around the left side of the tree taking special care not to let either target see it. He smiled with pride as he waited for further incrimination from the target itself.

He did think it was little odd, that here on the first day of school a story like this would fall on his lap. He had simply chosen a shady tree away from the mass of students in the courtyard. From there he listened to the insane new principal's speech and decided to move to the other side of the tree to stop himself from being infected by the mindless chatter of the other student he was, afterall, a child prodigy, such talk of aliens and time travelers was far beneath him.

"Hajimemashite!" a new boy said with a sharp bow, in a near excited tone. "My name is Kazuki Ichiyama, and I'm new to this area and this school. I was hoping I could ask you for help in finding my way around, as the sempai seem rather busy."

The notebook hit the grass with a hard Thud! As the young spy stood and walked around the tree. "Really, now" he exclaimed "I'm sure they were in the middle of a conversation which you have already rudely interrupted".

Ichi Yutamari was laying on the roof of the school and looked up into the sky. He knew not many people had keys to access the roof so he knew he had some time to himself. He heard people screaming about coming back for the new year, he heard people talking to one another about what they had done all summer long. He grew tired of this and decided to go over to the gate and look down on the new people starting classes. As he looked out he saw two people sitting under a tree talking about different things. He thought he knew them from his class but he wasn't to sure. As Ichi stood there he started to close his eyes thinking to himself. "Should I try harder this year to get more friends?"

He decided that he would finally branch out and give making friends a try. He picked the two people that were under the tree to be his friends.

He went down the tower of the school and out the front door into the courtyard. He then walked over to the tree where the two people were sitting. He was very nervous and could hardly stand. Then he suddenly said: "Ohayou gozaimasu! My name is Ichi Yutamari, *bows slightly* please be my friend."

Mizuki was running and after a while she reached in the front courtyard. She continued running and near a tree she heard a voice: "... please be my friend.". After hearing that, her eyes filled with tears and everyone nearby could hear her crying. When she reached behind the trees she stopped and sat down out of breath. But she was still crying. Hopefully the sound was now so silent that couldn't reach so far. She stopped crying and pulled a handkerchief from the pocket of her red skirt. She placed it at her eyes and stayed still for a moment. Then she entered the building from a door at the back of the high school.

Walking towards the stairs she took a hard decision. Then she whispered: I won't make a friend again" Without knowing it she was in the front courtyard again! "When did I get here?" asked herself. She looked at her left and saw a guy with white hair standing in front of a tree. She walked near the tree and tried to hear what he was saying. "Ohayou gozaimasu! My name is Ichi Yutamari". She found that a boring conversation and turned around. She took a step and heard the voice of this guy again. "... please be my friend.". She stayed still with her eyes wide open. A cold like ice tear fell from her left eye.

She started running again but after a while she realized that it was useless and stopped. She was in the back of the high school in front of a door. She looked behind and saw lots of trees. She noticed something white at the grass. She went there and picked it up. It was a wet handkerchief. She dropped it on the ground and searched her pocket in a hurry. It was empty.

She heard someone coming and run away. She could hear that person cursing something...

Day in the life of LeStat-Pierre is no ordinary day where the birds chirp and sing, flowers bloom, and bees pollenate them. It's about exploration. He laid on his stomach in the grass with a camera trying his best to focus it at a flower with a hummingbird. "This is a giant shot." He points it away from the flower to the gathering crowd of people. "I will capture the day to day life of a Japanese school student..." Sweat rolls down his cheek. "But I hope my japanese isn't too offensive."

He flips onto his back and reviewed the collection of photographs. Thumbing over the navigation button he still isn't impressed with any of the shots. "Japan is beautiful yet so very..." He looked to the side thinking over the word best to describe what he meant. "...Kawaii..." Continuing his review of the many assorted artsy pictures, his mind drifted into wondering why everything was so cutesy in Japan. "It's like this is the land of fairy tales and puppy dogs."

Blushing fiercely, LeStat realized he caught a panty shot of a girl not too far from him. "No no no no...I didn't want that." He looks in the direction of his last shot to see students conversing. An instant feeling of luckiness washed over him as he quickly deleted the photograph. "That was one feminine guy in the photo too..." Unknowing of his surroundings he stuck out like a sore thumb. "Me regarder ce mâle évidemment européen au milieu de tous ces petits gens japonais. POURQUOI J'AI CHOISI CES DEVISES ONT PROGRAMME!?!" (Look at me this obviously European male in the middle of all these small japanese people. WHY DID I CHOSE THIS FOREIGN EXCHANGE PROGRAM!?!) LeStat huffed loudly as he began to get up off the ground leaving his camera down for a few seconds. "First things first..." He stands against the sunlight in his patented hero pose. "I have two years to become Chief Editor of the School Newspaper."

He grabbed his camera and school bag off the ground running towards the centre of the school grounds. He ran faster and faster as like he was a character at the beginning of one of his favorite animes. And with the same anime inspired gusto he jumps into the air and yells. "HWAAA HOOO!!!!" When he begins to land he sees a girl coming into his path as she was running hard herself.

They crashed into with the glorious display of books flying in the air like "...HANABI..." LeStat was in pain trying to get his barings. "Did I just say what I thought?" Putting his hand down he could feel hair. It was hard for him to see without his glasses. He put another hand down and felt something soft yet firm. He squinted his eyes to see a girl under him with long black hair and a sorta european look to her. Look at where his hand was he realized that he was groping her breast.

While realizing this he doesn't seem to lift his hand but makes one quick squeeze and rolls off of her. "Bonjour Beau. Je suis désolé que je m'amuse avec votre sein mais ceci est un accident. Et pendant que vous ne pouvez pas me comprendre. Ceci est le sein le plus ferme que je jamais se suis senti dans ma vie." (Hello Beautiful. I am sorry I am having fun with your breast but this is an accident. And while you can't understand me. This is the firmest breast I have ever felt in my life.) He returned to speaking to her in Japanese so they can actually 'speak'. "I am sorry you don't speak my language. I said that I am sorry but gladly I landed somewhere beautiful." LeStat rolls his head to the side to gives her his best pretty boy smile. "The name's LeStat-Pierre François. Call me LeStat since I have already gotten to second base with you."
