Welcome to Gaia! ::

Chun packed up all her materials into the worn shoulder bag she hadn't bothered to replace, and sighed. Another school year was coming, and frankly she was as ambivalent in her reaction to that fact as she was when she was a little girl. Summer was rather dull-or at least it was to her. True, she had Ophelia and Sora, friendships she certainly didn't deserve, but during summer her life was mostly holing up in the library and challenging herself in go, things she could easily do during the school year as well. Summer just brought in hot weather and a few different foods. On the other hand, school meant she had to interact with people. And school meant people wanting her to join their clubs, to bring them success in the chess competition, in the academic competitions, wanting something from her. During summer, she didn't need to worry about expectations. But on the other hand...school meant seeing Sora's awful grades. Over. And Over. Again.

Chun involuntarily winced.

(( Sorry Kichiro [there's no 'n' in the name from what I can see anywhere else], but since everyone else seems to suggest school is coming, not started, Kyo doesn't plan on making an appearance there any time soon. mrgreen
Tsu; ...No comment. ))

Kyo wasn't particularily concerned with the fast approaching school year; he'd do little work, put in little effort, and still come out at the top of his class. He had't done any preperation for the year thus far, and relied solely on the fact that someone would've picked up his things for school for him, he'd never the patience, or care, to do it himself.

Ahead of him, only a short distance away, he could see someone, a girl, it seemed, carrying around several bags. Obviously, a shopping trip was underway, or ending. For a split second he though maybe he'd offer her some help, until he realized who it was: Sora. Instead, he'd have a little fun.

Coming up behind her as slow as possible, Kyo poised himself to finish his plan. In the next moment, he burst out from behind her, running, and yelled, "Gotta hurry, see you tomorrow squirt!" He kept on running, with a grin, not looking back but still hoping he'd at least given her a bit of a shock.

[Okay, before this goes further, I need to explain to everybody anime personalities. This is an IMMENSE copy roleplay, deal with it, most of them are from love hina anyway.

Kyo= Ryou [Tokyo Mew Mew]
Kichiro= Akasaka [Tokyo Mew Mew]

Now the gurls.

Sora is like Naru, in personality. Nina is Kaolla Su! Ophelia would be like Mitsune! Chun as Shinobu, and Madison as a slightly tamer Motoko!]

[Lol, yesh, Heathy, but Madison's tamer than Motko, keep that in mind, she doesn't threaten to kill people on a regular basis, only when she seriously loses her patience, often she's a lot more like Auntie Haruka meets Motoko.]

Her long dark braid, whipping through the crisp autumn air, Ophelia sat on her motorbike, perched high atop a hill overlooking her school, Nyonko high. Her eyes were sharp, unblinking, staring at her learning haven, and then a deep sigh followed, erupting from her chest cavity, shaking all of the air out of her. Soon she'd be expected to head back to school and worry, once again, about her grades, her sports, her relationships with students and teachers, keep up with homework, school events, news, gossip, and all the other relentless crap that school brought. She just couldn't wait to be shoved back into one of those mind-numbingly boring classes, forced to taek notes on something that she couldn't care less about. More tests, long term writings that she held no interest in. And the dull buzz of high school life, that may have interested some, but put Ophelia to sleep.

She gripped the rubber handle to her motorbike softly, causing the engiene to whir a lively growl, and then slow back down to a hovering purr. She wished she could just turn and head the opposite directino, from her school, from her parents, perhaps even from Tokyo altogether.

"Those friends of mine... are the only thing keeping me here." Ophelia convinced herself as she lifted up her selnder legs, and tucked her feet in below her bike, beginning to head at an even acceleration, down, and into the city, picking up into a healthy speed, and allowing the wind to lift her troubles away. Atleast she could enjoy herself on this one last day of summer.

"Holy-!" Sora cut herself off from swearing, tumbling down the hill, dropping most of her bags. She watched helplessly as important school supplies dipped into the water, and almost lost a panda mechanical pencil, dipping her hand in just in time to save her buy of the day. She turned around, dangerous glare in her eye, and Sora menicingly stated;

"Oh we'll see who's the squirt when I crunch your spine into one bone!" Sora waved her first, picking up everything she could, fishing a few items out of the water. Looking at her now saoking clothes, she squeezed as much water out of her clothes as she could before walking back up the hill again, carrying her shoes which she had left of the river-bank.

'Oh I'll get him one day, I swear to God.' She growled, walking slowly to the Hinata house. She smilled, blowing the whole event off as simply one she would get revenge for tomorow. Sora sat on the stairs leading to her large home, and stared up at the stars now dotting the sky. 'Well, tomorow is a new day, a new idea, a new hope for full-out revenge!'

(( If you wouldn't mind explaining who Ryou is and what he acts like, I'd be grateful. I've no idea who my character keeps getting referenced to, so I work off of whatever his character bio has for me. Also, as I'm playing Kyo, I might need to know a few things about him other characters, and players, wouldn't know. Home situation would be one good thing to know, for example. ))

Tires screeching, gnawing against the dry pavement below them, Ophelia pulled her bike into the garage up the side of hinata house, it was time to put her prized ride away for the night, and the sun was setting. She may have had a the power of speed but she couldn't see in the dark, that was for sure.

Ophelia propped up her bike by the wall of the inside of the garage and paused there for a minute, giving her motorbike a good look over before taking off once again. Allways on the go that Ophelia was. She hurried out of the garage and into the door that was there leading into the main house. As she stpped inside, stopping to remove her shoes, she could pick up the faint aroma of cooking food and had to wonder if Nina or Madison was preparing dinner for them. She certainly hoped so, her stomache was rumbling just thinging of thse sorts of meals.

She ran her fingers through her bangs and used her fingers as a comb, straightening out the hair on top of her head, and pulling the scrunchies on her braid to tighten up the knots.

"Hello?" She called out in her clear voice, hoping that some resident of the house was within ear shot to hear her. "I'm home!"

Ophelia paused for a miunte, before shrugging and heading up to her room. Once there she hung up her blue and orange, matching to her own school colours, helmet on a hook and fell over on her bed, breathing in the deep scent of her pillow and snaking her arm over to the bedside table to n** a gameboy advance, something to keep her fingers busy as she waited, hopefully for food.

"Ah... Harvest moon... I wonder how my cows are doing." Ophelia murmured to herself as she tapped away on her gameboy.
