Courtyard (North)

[sakura159753]

Sakura blinked as he was confused with the unexpected exit. Well, she seems nice... Sakura thought and smiled as he walked back to Nobara, seeing her still tranced out. Goodness, shes easily amused... Sakura layed down near Nobara, in the grass with some flowers growing around him. He closed his eyes and thought, Wonder where Kuro went off to... He lost himself in thought and fell asleep.

((Bye Shunko!!! And Kuro, I'll see yeah later. ^^ Me going to play Halo now! whee ))  

[Winny-chan]

((I am so not reading all of that. =___=))

Nobara opened her eyes suddenly, wondering for a moment where she was and what she was doing. She then remembered all of the talk she had with Sakura and Kuro, and opened her eyes just in time to see a girl walking off. Oh.... probably... their girlfriend or something.... Standing up in disgust that she missed such a thing, her curls in tangles now, she hoisted her bow up on her back, examining it. A little chip was found on the bottom half of it, and she grimaced. Great... I'll have to fix that later...

Sighing lightly and smoothing out her dress, Nobara looked around, wondering what to do next... she could just leave the perimeter entirely, and let Kuro and Sakura chase after that girl they seemed so interested in... She contemplated these thoughts for a bit, and then decided just to walk off somewhere else in the courtyard. Holding her quiver in her left hand, she started off East, hoping to find a nice tree to sit under...  

[Shinygami]

Kuro jumped off a flexible branch and spread his wings.He wafted on a few breezes then landed by Nobara and Sakura.He then began following Nobara."Man that girl does not sit well with me..."He said quietly as he followed Nobara.  

[Winny-chan]

Nobara felt Kuro's presence behind her, and was tempted to shoot an arrow just to frighten him, and get in his head that she wanted to be left alone... but she decided not to. Sighing lightly, she began to walk faster, observing all of the people around her. There were tons of couples, for some strange reason; they were cuddling and such. She shook her head in disgrace; if SHE had a lover, she'd keep it private. These people just seemed eager to show off their new lovers.

Putting her tongue on one side of her mouth, Nobara found a small patch of barren Earth, with pansies surrounding on it. It looked like an Earth manipulator had moved the flowers out of the way there. She smiled a bit, and took a seat where the unknown person had before, looking at all of the pansies. Such an array of colors they were! Blue, purple, orange, pink, yellow, a rainbow of pansies surrounded her, and she looked at them all before staring into the big blue sky.  

[Shinygami]

Kuro decided to compliment Nobara."You look...Different sitting there..."He said trying to comment that she looked good.He had never been good at compliments.Damn...She's going to think I'm a wierdo or something...Great I might just lose a friend if I screw this up....He thought.  

[Winny-chan]

Nobara raised an eyebrow at Kuro, wondering just what the heck he meant. So... he's probably saying I look ugly. Or maybe cute. He really doesn't talk that much.... She sighed, rolled her eyes, and shook her head. "Okay.... "

She really didn't have that much to say; to be blunt, Sakura was sleeping, Kuro was acting weird, and Nobara just... wanted to be alone. It was the only chance she had to sit in these pansies for now, and possibly mend her bow, but he just had to come up and talk to her. She couldn't even get some time of her own anymore. Untying her ribbons, her hair came tumbling down to her shoulders in curls, and she shook it out, taking her glasses off and rubbing them clean with the bottom part of her dress.  

[Shinygami]

Kuro looked at her.She seemed more radiant with her hair down but he felt she didn't want anything to do with him so he just kept his mouth shut.She seemed really kind and beautiful once you got past her anger but she just seemed to want to spend her life alone.These are the best years of my life and here I am wasting away with a girl who doesn't even like me...Thought Kuro.He felt disheartened but tried not to show it.

Sakura continued to sleep on the grassy ground, difting off to a small haven he created in his mind. Ah...So peaceful... As Sakura dreamed he smirked and giggled a bit, having a nice time dreaming about life. If only life was truly this pleasant... Sakura thought then woke up from the sudden change of mood in his dream. He sat up quickly looking around to see where he was. Just where he was when he fell asleep, in the courtyard of Ria. Seeing that Nobara has moved and Kuro near her, he just stayed where he was. Maybe if I leave her alone she'll be more peaceful to talk to....

Sakura looked over at his luggage by the tree where he first met Nobara. Using his shield manipulation, he put his hands in a ball in the direction of the luggage creating a spherical shield around them. Ascending his hands upwards then bringing them to him, his luggage did the same...up, then towards. Putting his hands down made the luggage land softly beside him and he took out his notebook and a pen. He decided to take notes on some herbology. He took out a book entitled, "Green Magic: Working With The Earth" and opened it to the page where he left off. He opened his notebook and begun to read, writing bits and pieces as he went along.  

[Winny-chan]

Nobara stared at him for a few moments before sliding her glasses back on her face. She tried to focus her attention on something else... but with Kuro's eyes all over her, it was kind of hard to focus. Biting her lower lip and combing her hair with her fingers, Nobara brought out an arrow, and turned it over, looking at the index feather.

It was dirty and matted, and definitely needed to be replaced with something else. She looked at it calmly, though inside she just wanted to rip it apart. What would it take for Kuro to stop looking at her. Pushing her bangs aside, she put the arrow down next to her. "Do... you need something?"  

[Shinygami]

"No...I just meant to say...Well I think...Well..You just look good ok?"He said a little bit of anxiety was sweeping over him.His wings had been twitching under the coat the whole time he tried to respond.  

[Nefidean]

Nefidean smiled at Uwasa. "Thanks. I'll keep in mind when you do leave the country. I think I can mange for the most part, unless things get complettly out of contorl." she smiled again as she strached her arms above her head. "I at lest feel comfortable here. Like I can be my self. I haven't been able to do that in such a long time."  

[uwasa]

He smiled and yawned as he relaxed some more. "Ya this is a nice place i would'nt ever switch schools not even for the world this is my home." He said with a smile on and he closed his eye's though hard to tell with the sunglasses.  

[Winny-chan]

Nobara didn't understand that for a moment, and she stared off blankly into space, trying to figure out what he said. I... look good? What? When it finally clicked, she turned a light red, and moved her curls in front of her face, hoping Kuro didn't notice. It would totally ruin her image if he saw that; she'd just look like every other teenage girl when complimented.

She looked down, and kicked at the dirt a bit, wondering what to say. There was an odd silence forming between them, and plainly, she didn't like it. WHERE'S SAKURA!? HE'LL UNDO THIS TENSION!!! Beginnning to panic, Nobara took a grip on her black dress, tightening it a bit, extra cloth in her hands. "You... um, uh, look... good too." How lame was that, she thought. She could do better than that. It just... wasn't the right time. Yeah. Time.  

[Nefidean]

"Haven't been around long enough to say the same, but if there are more people like you, I don't think I'd want to leave either." she smiling. "At least it's peacful. For the most part at least, and defintly intresting. It would be hard to get borded in a place like this." She sighed folding her legs and hunching over them placeing her elbow on her knee, then her chin in her palm.

Effla, the green-clad elven teenager wandered along a path on a courtyyard path. Her back was slightly bent due to bags, bundles and a satchel that she carried. She looked generally travel worn, as her clother were a wee bit dusty and the amount of stuff she carried could have been her whole fortune. She had a wooden quarterstaff on her right hand and a large sheet of paper in the other - the map of Ria High.

Effla was looking around at the place and the people, as well as the map. The paper was wery close to her face as she was - apparently - trying to read it, her lips moving voicelessly. She manage to bump into a few people, followed by a loud "Shorry!" before she stopped walking and looked for a place to sit down.

Her eyes spotted the large tree and she folded the map in two, walking at the tree. She let the bundles of green and gray and her large satchel fall on the ground about her as she sat down. She started looking at the map again, holding it less than a foot away from her face. She was mumbling to herself, her lips moving very slowly. It looked almost like she was trying to spell the words on the map.
