Kyren Ari Stills

Hello there my fellow Roleplayers!
Sorry for the delay but "Mr. Rodeo" had too much personality for just one month! Anyways lets kick him to the curb now and welcome our newest and most anticipated character, Mr. Moody himself,

Kyren Stills

From the words of our lovely Sui, "Like a true Cancer, he is moody and reserved!"

~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~

True this young man is rather rough around the edges. Far from your "friendly" average highschooler. Secluding himself majority of the time Kyren immerses his attention and talent into his sketchbook. However his stoic aura is shaken only when his adorkable little sister, Emma is in his presence! If your lucky (very very very lucky) when she shows up you may even see him crack a smile. And who knows he may even have a smile that makes girl's swoon! But it's usually gone just a quickly as it appeared.

Okay, lets just get it out of the way and say this boy has an undeniable sister complex! Unwavering in fact! After loosing their father at a young age Kyren promised to protect her in his Dads place. He spends the majority of his time making sure Emma is happy and healthy! Also for her own good he battles to keep the Samo strays far away from her. Now Kyren isn't ALWAYS, as his creator may claim, a Drama King! He can be very compassionate and more than willing to treat you as family if he finds you trustworthy and you become close enough with him.

So, some advice when crossing paths with this eyeliner wearing teen. Keep your loud antic to yourself they certainly don't impress him (just ask Lena)! Keep sugar out of his reach, it makes his do very very bad things! ;) && Don't and I mean DON'T touch his sister!
Follow these simple rules, and you might survive!

Now off to the Interview! This one should be a HOOT!

Okay, so we know that over the past several months there has been very little activity in the roleplay! But really that wasn't the intial point in creating this forum in the first place.
Rai Island is what brought us all together. It's our home away from home, so to speak! We are not just a Forum full of gifted and creative writers . . . however a place full of wacky and crazy friends ;)
A place where we are creating unforgettable memories!


Even though we are constantly changing and still knee deep in finding ourselves in the world; we know that through the tears that fall and the smiles that grace our faces we will always have each other! Because no matter where our lives take us, nothing will change so much that we are not all friends still!

&& We will always have RaiIsland to come back to! Our Island ♥
Okay, okay enough of the cheesiness!
I love you CRAZY ladies!

    Shiori was startled out of her mental meditation by her new seatmates sudden question, or more specifically, his use of her native tongue. She wasn't expecting for there to be others here who could speak Japanese, so she and Kenta had decided to only/mostly use English while studying here. It was surprising to meet another who understood and spoke her language, even more so that he sat beside her in class.

    Not wanting to seem rude, she instantly wiped any surprise from her face and instinctively gave a small bow toward him, both hands placed neatly on her lap. "Aah hai, watashi wa Nihon-jin desu. Soshite so desu, onamae wa Akane Shiori des, hajimemashite. Anata wa?"

    "Aa, so desu ka," Ah-Gyul responded. He bowed his head a little in response "Hajimemashite Akane-san, boku no namae wa Shin Ah-Gyul desu. Douzo yoroshiku. Kankoku kara kimashita. Kankoku-jin, desu. Doko Nihon de kara kimashita?" He smiled invitingly, because unlike most of the other students at this school, she was one of the few he might possibly care to interact with. Then again, there was the Wilder boy, whose potential strength interested him. Except he didn't seem one for conversation, at least at this time.


    ---
    Mrs. Clemens smiled lightly at her student, unsurprised that a word like that should be exclaimed in a high school, even one as so-called elite as Valevay. "Don't worry about it, Mr. Wilder. We're fine unless it becomes a habit." While Valevay may have had a policy on cursing, Jane was for the most part rather lax on it.
    It intrigued Jane to hear a conversation being held in another language, even though she didn't show any indication of particular interest. IT made her think of her husband, oceans away. He was due back for a short break in two weeks, hopefully he stuck to it.

    Xavier had managed to zone out enough that he could no longer hear the other low conversations taking place in the quiet classroom. He sat, chin in palm, staring at the wall in a daydream. So it was no wonder that he was surprised when someone suddenly popped up in his peripheral. He dropped his hand, turning to stare at the Asian boy who’d introduced himself as Kenta. Xavier took a moment to check the board, finding the name up their above his own.

    “Nice to meet.” He said in low tone, smiling slightly. He took the time to notice the white head of hair on the boy, and smirked, “Nice hair, too.” The unusual comment, though strange on Xavier’s lips, was far from an insult. After all, anyone could tell that just by looking up at Xavier’s head of soft silver locks. That didn’t happen by accident, after all. “I’m Xavier. I…uh, I guess were in the same group, then.”

    With some much needed help Emma was able to find a nice outfit for the day although she hadn’t budged on letting her caramel locks loose – instead keeping it securely tied and styled in its usual pigtails. The outfit Lorilynn had deemed date worthy had already earned Emma a few lingering glances on her trip through the crowded hallways. The beige pencil skirt was one of her favorite articles of clothing the only reason that she had placed it in the back of her closest –where it had spent the many lonely months alone- was because she felt that it just a bit small. Though it was tight in one particular area it actually fit Emma quite nicely stopping barely an inch above her knees, tastefully showing off her normally hidden figure. The pastel pink blouse only helped to add a lovely color to Emma’s wardrobe which complemented her soft brown doe eyes. Thankfully Lorilynn had a secret hidden talent as a stylist. . . .then again she could have just gotten lucky. None the less Emma was very thankful for her help, and was sure to tell her over . . . and over again.

    A bit later than anticipated Emma slipped into Mrs. Clemens class her slender arms wrapped about her thick pristine history book holding it softly to her chest, accompanied closely by Lorilynn – whom she’d been in a small conversation with about her roommate’s life back in Boston. The small brunette hung onto her fair haired dormmate’s every last word. Born and raised on the Island the Still’s never ventured further than its white powdery beaches. So hearing about the outside world had always fascinated Emma, and due to the large amount of transfer student’s Valevay High gladly opened their arms to every year Emma had many chances to learn about other places more or less interesting as Boston.

    Immediately upon entering the class Emma spotted the curly haired brunette that had invaded her mind all morning. Seeing him buried in a textbook was far more surprising than the fact that he’d made it to class before her this time. Still it elected a lightning fast grin to spread over her lips. Not wanting to interrupt him she turned to take a quick peek at the seating arrangements. Needless to say that the sudden sharp noise of a classmate’s chair connecting with the floor and a loud choice word from Chuck startled Emma causing her to jump suddenly nearly dropping her textbook.
    Oh goodness. . . I hope no one saw that

    Adjusting her glasses -trying to hide the embarrassed blush staining her face- Emma claimed the corner seat closest to Mrs. Clemen's desk, greeting the brunette already at sitting at their table in her normal soft tone, "Good Morning"

    "Douzo yoroshiku, Shin-san. Kyoto kara kimashita." She tentatively smiled back, feeling slightly more at ease now that she's met someone with at least a little common ground with herself. Though, even if she wasn't itching to grab at her knives and sharpen tools anymore, she knew she would always feel a little unease. It was natural for her to have at least a small part of her on guard, even though she knew perfectly well that nothing would jump out and attack her here.

    Still this Ah-Gyul Shin seemed like a nice enough man, and was quite well informed with Japanese etiquette. She was curious how he knew so much though, after all, he said he was from Korea. While it wouldn't be all that unusual to take a foreign language class, he seemed far too fluent and knowledgeable in the Japanese ways for something as simple as that. "Anata wa Nihongo ga jouzu desu ne. Shitsu mon ga aru desukedo? Dō ya~tsu te son'nani manabimashita ka?"

    The tattooed Wilder boy breathed a sigh of relief when the teacher didn't scold him for his unexpected slip of the F bomb. "No," Chuck began, "it won't happen agai-" The words trailed off as he realized Emma was standing up at the front of the classroom decked out in a soft pink shirt with three quarter inch sleeves and a beige pencil skirt that ended just a bit above her knees. Beneath the skirt were her legs were white. Stockings? Tights? He had no idea what the heck they were and didn't care. They looked nice on her. The shoes she wore were called Mary Janes, but he wouldn't have known that either.

    The bassist couldn't help the smile that stretched his lips as he watched her move to take her seat. She was such a pretty little thing. Immediately, he wished for class to be over and even contemplated just grabbing Emma and making off with her right then, but he reminded himself that he was a Valevay student now. He'd busted his ass to get into this school and paid for it himself, so abducting her was out of the question. At least until after class. He was so glad to see her, despite his embarrassment that she'd probably heard his foul outburst.

    "Boku wa naganen ni watari, sore o mananda. Soshite kyonen soko ni sunde ita. Donna ongaku ga sukidesu ka?" Ah-Gyul first replied politely, and then conversationally. Akane-san seemed more comfortable than before, and yet as he watched, still guarded. That was well enough--it was natural to be that way and reminded him even moreso of his warrior-esque friend back in Tokyo. He chuckled to himself, fond memories of him teasing Kyouko just as Mariko did.
    But just because the two appeared exceedingly similar, Ah-Gyul was not senseless enough to believe they were the same. For all he knew, this Japanese girl could react more harshly to teasing, or worse, surprise him by being so sensitive she would start crying or something. Until he knew more about his groupmate, the Korean resolved to be unfailing in his etiquette.

    "So desu ka, soshite doko Nihon de imashita ka?" Well that certainly explained things, learning about a culture in a class and actually living with that culture really made a difference. With a class all you did was learn about the information through second hand knowledge and experiences, but actually living in the place of study, you would get to see and experience what you learned for yourself in a place where it was all common knowledge.

    His question about her taste in music snapped her out of her mini-dazz though, seemed he wasn't against polite conversation which, she supposed, was a good thing for her. Thinking about it, she actually had a pretty wide range on music she listened too whenever she took the time, but she didn't want to bore him with the details so she stuck with what she listened to most. "Watashi wa kurashikku ongaku o konomu ga, watashi mo hoka no ongaku ga sukidesu"

    Oh my, how cute is that!

    Emma sneaking peeks at the Wilder boy, while he was doing the same? Huh, she must've done her job correctly then, since he wouldn't stop looking at her. Smirking triumphantly, Lorilynn took her seat right across from Emma and next to Becky. She wished Mrs. Clemens a good morning before leaning in closer to Emma. Lorilynn whispered "See? He's totally into you. My work here is done. But I still think you should have let your hair loose." She fake pouted, remembering how Emma refused to let down her hair. She still looked cute, nonetheless. Fixing her posture, she turned to face Becky, giving her a bright smile. "Hello there, Becky. You look... Distraught? For lack of a better word. Is everything alright?"

    "G'mornin' Emma," Rebecca replied. Emma was really quiet and paying attention to something else, so conversation hadn't gone anywhere for a moment. When Lorilynn joined their group and took a seat next to the tomboy, she just had to notice the brunette's mood, didn't she? "Yeah, Lynn, it is," she answered her new friend, smiling. She was eager to change the subject. "So how are ya? That was quite a spectacle yesterday, with the Asian. Pretty flipping awesome, 'fya ask me." The memory of a pink mustache on the serious-looking guy, put a grin on her face, one that threatened to turn into a loud guffaw--and so Rebecca fought the epic internal battle, so that only a small "Hee~" escaped her lips.

    "Roppongi de imashita. Soshite, rokkumyūjikku o konomu. Kurashikku ga amari sukide wa arimasen." Ah-Gyul had let slip a small expression of distaste at Akane's mention of Classical music, but it couldn't be helped by now. He adjusted his glasses before asking more politely than with interest: "Anata no tomodachi mo nihonjin desu ka?"
    Even if the loud boy was, Ah-Gyul would probably make zero effort to getto know him--it seemed more trouble than it was worth.

    [[I lived in Roppongi [a famous area of Tokyo]. And, I prefer rock music. I don't like classical much.]][[Is your friend Japanese too?]]

    Lorilynn wasn't too sure that everything was alright with Becky, seeing as her expression changed from flustered to happy-go-lucky, but she didn't get a chance to make sure before the brunette launched into yesterdays events in Art Class. Cringing slightly, she turned to look for Ah-Gyul, who was a table away. "Yeah, Ah-Gyul's got quite a grip too," she said a little louder, rubbing her wrist. Turning to Becky, a small laugh did escape her lips. "But I thought the pink mustache was very becoming on him as well. Shame he took it off."

    Yawning, Kyren sauntered into the classroom, pointedly not glancing about in search of wolves frothing at the mouth or their intended prey. He almost faltered as he realized that, in essence, he was avoiding Emma; something he hated to do. He had to shake that thought, however; this was the only solution he could think of at the moment. Otherwise, Kyren feared that the problem they had yet to fully solve would drive an even bigger wedge between the siblings. Catching sight of the board, he was a little put out at noticing that there was a seating chart for this class, as well. Upon closer inspection, and completely without his permission, his mind zeroed in on the fact that wolf-boy and Emma would not be sitting together, and decided to rejoice in the fact. Sighing, he mentally swatted the thought away, before finding his own seat, located near the rear of the room. Kyren could definitely live with that; history wasn't exactly a subject he was dying to learn about. Noticing that only one of his table-mates was already there, he sat down on the opposite side. He entertained the notion that he should say hi, but figured that was a little too much of a step in a direction he had been nothing but content to stay away from, so he just placed one hand palm up underneath his chin, the other drawing random, invisible patterns on the table.

    "Ha ha, thanks!" Kenta happily exclaimed, ruffling his white locks with his hands, making it look even messier then it was before. "I'm thinking of trying for purple tomorrow" Though which purple he'd use was still a mystery. The half-Japanese had a whole rainbow of hair dyes, with various shades of each color too, so he had quite a list to choose from.

    "Yep, looks that way! And we also got...." He trailed off, trying to lean forward in his seat to see who else was in their group. "Ah! Minami Aura and Chepe Kojike in our little party" Sitting back in his chair, he looked around, trying to spot their other seatmates even though he had no clue what they looked like. "Aaaand, I guess they're not here yet."

    After a brief glance at the board, Kelsey found that she was heading in the right direction. She was seated in the back by the window, something she was incredibly grateful for. She hadn't had much in the way of opportunity to glance at the island. And she couldn't deny the beauty outside her window, even though it only overlooked a section of the courtyard. As more students came in, they found their groups and old friends, and the classroom quickly filled with chatter. No one from her assigned seating group had arrived yet. She placed her belongings by the desk closest to the window, since it had the greatest aisle space. Now began the tedious task of moving the desk chair elsewhere so she could fit at the desk. She bent over, hooking the fingers of one hand underneath the chair, while she backed herself up with the other hand. The chair gave a strident screech across the linoleum floor and Kelsey winced. She repositioned Mickey, trying to get better leverage on the chair.

    "Hahahaha, right? Y'know, I can't say I don't blame him for how he reacted--I only wish I got a picture. His face was priceless!" Rebecca's expression was now one of pure mischief, past and potentially future. She slid back in her seat, stretching her long legs out towards the empty seat directly across from her. Drewe Pryde, whoever that was (though the name sounded very familiar), was the last one that needed to join the group, but since he was at the moment not present the brunette had no qualms whatsoever with extending her legs as far into his floorspace as she felt necessary.
    She glanced over at her silken-haired friend. "Lynn, you wanna do beach volleyball tomorrow mornin'? I always like going before work." Rebecca turned towards the quiet Stills girl and grinned invitingly. "You too, you can come if you want, open invitation."

    Gracefully hoping down from the edge of Andy’s desk, her tight red curls spilling over her bare slender shoulders, Lena made it a point to step in Andy’s way of seeing the seating chart. The traces of light brown freckles trailing along her exposed shoulders were more noticeable today due to her choice of attire - light blue top which dipped over either shoulder leaving them uncovered aside from the thin strap of fabric belonging to her undershirt. Placing her hands on her denim covered hips; the redhead tilted her head a feigned pout on her lips at Andy’s attempt to brush her off. “You can’t get rid of me that easily buddy!” She responded side stepping to reveal the chart she’d been blocking. Slowly walking around Andy, Lena continued her voice lowered to a hushed almost serious tone. “You know even though I’m not as devoted to school as some of you elite here at Valevay…I assure you that I am not her just to horse around.” Andy wasn’t the first one to question Cholena’s abilities at this prestigious school . . . the Stills siblings as well as her own parent’s had thought that it might have been a little far out of her reach. Be it making it to class on time – since everyone knew that repeated tardiness could buy you a one way ticket out of the school- or keeping up with the rigorously demanding courses Lena was trying her absolute best.

    “Well, I look forward to seeing how you’ll make good on that bet.” Lena concluded scooping up her belonging from the desk she had abandoned them at. Leaving Andy to his business Lena skipped over to her now full table, plopping her bag down in the only empty seat available beside the Wilder boy. “Goooooood Morning!” Lena cheerfully greeted taking in the faces around her table. There was an Asian girl she’d never met before already in a conversation with “science book” boy – which it seemed as though they might have forgotten they were still in America- and the notorious Chuck Wilder whom was preoccupied by something at the front of the class. Following his gaze Lena glanced over her shoulder to see what had had been so intriguing when her blue eyes landed on a scrumptious little brunette. “Oh control your hormones a little will ‘ya?!” Lena insisted sarcasm laced in her tone. Although Cholena had never witnessed Chuck Wilder do anything that would support all the bad rumors that were floating around about him and his family, she couldn’t help but feel protective over Emma. She was like a little sister to her and she didn’t want to see her get hurt . . . . . . . .or maybe maybe deep down she just didn’t want someone to take her best friend away . . . . . Nah!

    Taking out the article she had been reading earlier Lena approached the neighboring group leaning over the back of Emma’s chair, pulling the girl’s small figure into a tight hug. “You look amazing! Like you’re going on a date or something… which can’t possibly be the case because you would have told me about it! So, what’s the occasion? Trying to catch someone’s eye?” Lena teased poking Emma’s side playfully as she indiscreetly bobbed her head in a particular curly haired boy’s direction. The blush on Emma’s face was proof enough for Lena who only laughed before sitting down in the seat across from Rebecca. After the epic paint fight that occurred in Art Class the day before it was clear to Lena that this girl Rebecca Clemens knew how to have a good time, and Lena definitely wanted to include her in on this little ghost hunt she’d been planning. “Hey guys, so did you see the front page article in the school newspaper today? Supposedly Valevay may be haunted!” Lena informed them setting the paper down in the middle of the table so that everyone could see the picture -by Gary Winter- of an eerily empty hallway in the west wing of the school which Danielle Thompson’s article followed. Lowering her voice so that Mrs. Clemens wouldn’t overhear her Lena eyed the other three girls’ a mischievous look in her radiant blue eyes as she asked. “Don’t you think it’s our duty as proud Valevaynians to prove this story true or false?” Lena asked hoping to persuade Emma by displaying a bit of school pride. “Though I work during the day this weekend I’m free for a nightly investigation!”

    Being one of the last student’s to arrive to class wasn’t new for Drewe Pryde. On the contrary due to the horde of admirers that followed him about the hallways every morning it was a surprise that he managed to even make it to class before the late bell rang out. Sauntering into American History -void of any textbook or book bag- Drewe approached Mrs. Clemens desk a flirtatious smirk dancing across his full lips. The golden blonde had made sure to acquire a spot in Jane’s class ever since he was accepted into Valevay freshman year. Though history wasn’t his best subject . . . he couldn’t pass up the chance to be taught by such a babe . It hadn’t been too difficult for him secure a spot in her class either, all he had to do was flash that pearly white smile of his at the office ladies and add a small comment or two about how nice they were looking…never seemed to fail that they’d swoon and buckle at his request.

    “Good Morning Jane .” Drewe’s usual friendly greeting was rather low compared to the noise of his chattering classmates, that were all already getting to know each other. Leaning against her desk –arms crossed over his chest - Drewe continued to toy with his teacher a bit more. “Seems I’ve forgotten my History book this morning, wouldn’t you be willing to share with me?” He asked mustering up the most innocent look he could manage. With his back to the class Drewe hadn’t cared to see whom his peers would be, but it hadn’t slipped by him that there had been two Pryde’s listed on the seating chart. Clenching his fists Drewe’s icy blue gaze narrowed in on Andy Pryde’s name. This had to be his worst nightmare . . . actually sharing a class with that sorry excuse for a brother, and after all these years of avoiding each other!

    Biting her bottom lip Emma couldn’t stop the painful feeling of guilt from rising up to her chest. It wasn’t that she didn’t want to tell Lena all about the events of the last few days it was just that she’d had been extremely busy . . . everything around her was happening fast! What with the tutoring sessions, attempting to put Kyren’s worries at ease, her own studies along with the responsibilities of being the senior class representative – it had just honestly slipped her mind to include Lena. “Umm- well . . . you see . . .” Thankfully Cholena had changed the subject before Emma could spill the beans on her after school “study” date, addressing the whole table this time about some kind of ghost story.

    Scooting to the edge of her seat Emma delicately leaned over the table to get a better look at the article that Lena placed in the center. This story wasn’t new to her at all, actually the rumor of a haunting had been floating around since Emma was accepted to Valevay her freshman year. It just happened to change and become more and more elaborate as the years passed by – one year a couple of student’s had actually been put on suspension for getting caught playing the game of Courage within the school halls one night after hearing the spooky tale. Looking up from the article a bit troubled Emma asked, “Are you requesting that we do a ghost hunt ?” She knew that Lena was impulsive and never thought about the consequences of her actions, but she couldn’t seriously be considering that they actually sneak into Valevay after nightfall. The redhead’s wink to her question had proven her worst thoughts to be correct. Pulling on one of her soft brown pigtails Emma looked up to see how Rebecca and Lorilynn felt about this escapade.

    "~Ah, I'm from Kyoto myself, but I hear Roppongi is quite nice~" Shiori actually laughed a bit, although it was more like soft chuckled, at Ah-Gyul's obvious distaste when she mentioned she liked Classical. "~Too each their own. Although I do quite like rock as well, I guess it depends on my mood~"

    Glancing over at her mentioned friend, he was still being a bit loud but looked like he was doing ok, she absently nodded her head. "~Actually he's half, but he is Japanese born and raised, just like myself. I'm sorry if he's being too loud, he's...quite excitable, I guess you could say~"



    ~~ = Its in Japanese

    Control his hormones?

    Did everyone aside from Emma consider him to be nothing better than an animal? Chuck rolled his eyes at Lena's comment and went back to reading the history book. So maybe he couldn't help it if the petite brunette had caught his eye when she'd walked in. It should be considered a mortal sin if he wouldn't have noticed, especially with how pretty she looked. Well, he always thought Emma looked pretty, but he really liked the way she looked today. It made him smile that she had decided to dress nicely to meet his family and he was definitely going to make sure she had a good time.

    Speaking of which, he had called his family's house last night after classes to make sure everyone else knew that he was bringing a girl home. Terry had asked him if he needed a bed - and if so, Chuck could use his, while he took Chuck's hammock - but the younger brother declined, letting him know that Emma wasn't going to be spending the night with him...tonight. He omitted the fact that she'd stayed the night in his bed with him during the storm a couple days ago, considering they hadn't done anything. If Terry was surprised, he didn't voice it. Nonetheless, his entire family knew they'd be having a guest tonight.

    As he read the text, focusing on it intently, the rest of the classroom noise started to fade into the background. He barely caught Emma voicing the words 'ghost hunt', but figured she wouldn't do something like that.

    "Volleyball! Oh, I'd love to!" Lorilynn cheered excitedly. She couldn't wait to learn how to play. She wished someone could take pictures. Every brilliant memory should be captured, and for Lorilynn, it was oh so very brilliant. She was about to ask what time they should meet up when a familiar red-head made her way to them. Giggling at Cholena's comment about how nice Emma looked, Lorilynn placed a hand delicately over her chest.

    "And Emma looks like that courtesy of moi. I'm brilliant, aren't I?" After listening to Lena go on about ghosts roaming around the school, Lorilynn rolled her eyes. "Oh come on. You don't actually believe they exist, do you? Of course the story is false. Whoever wrote it just wanted an attention grabbing story... And they succeeded." Lorilynn spoke, eyeing Lena. Ghosts were nothing but a hoax, and Lorilynn certainly wasn't going to spend her night looking for something nonexistent when she could be doing something way more productive such as dancing or sleeping.

    So . . . Lori was playing dress up with Emma? Well, I must say she has a good eye for fashion.


    Ooooh, I see what’s going on!” Lena interjected tilting back in her chair with her arms crossed over her chest, a smirk spreading across her lips as she eyed Lorilynn. So it was going to take a little bit of convincing to get Emma’s roommate on board with her little spooky escapade . . . “You know if you’re scared of ghost you could have just told me! I totally understand everybody has their fears.” Lena quipped trying to keep a straight understanding face, hoping that she didn’t actually hit the nail on the head. Lorilynn seemed like the type that once you challenged her she wouldn’t turn it down… pulling the scaredy cat card could either completely blown up in her face, or could actually worm Lorilynn into joining them over her better judgment. Hopefully it was the later of the two.

    Eyeing Cholena as she walked away, Andy sighed. He hadn't said she was just there to be playing around, but did he imply it in any way? Shrugging, he returned to his planning. Finding he couldn't concentrate, due to the lack of chit-chat around the room, he gave up. I can always try later today.

    He had to admit, he was growing more and more worried that he'd have to be thrown into another group since no one else but him was present at the moment. As if on cue, another gentleman mad his way into the classroom. If Andy wasn't mistaken, that was Mr. Stills, Emma's brother. He couldn't really remember his first name, but he was sure the two were siblings.

    Siblings.

    Andy was sure he heard a very familiar voice. The voice of his least favorite sibling - and it wasn't Dani. "Oh perfect," the blonde mumbled. He hadn't seen the other Pryde on the list because little miss Cholena was blocking it when she sat on his desk. How wonderful. Dearest brother Drewe was here. Let's hope this day isn't too painful...

    "Excuse me?" Lorilynn asked, raising a brow. How dare Lena say that she was afraid of something that was totally nonexistent. As if! Folding her arms, the white-haired girl huffed. "I'm not scared of things that don't exist. Do I need to go out there and prove to you that the 'ghosts' aren't there?" And then she had the nerve to say "Everyone has their fears." Lorilynn was a queen! She feared nothing - except bugs - and conquered all! "I'll go. Just to prove to you that I'm not scared and that there is no such thing." Turning to Emma, Lorilynn pointed her finger at her. "And you, Miss Stills. You need to come too; to help me prove there's no such thing. I helped you pick out an outfit, so to say thank you, you have to come with. No ifs ands or buts about it. Besides, with you there, I won't be the only sane one there." She laughed, sending her a playful wink.
