It was the first day at this new school for me. When you were the new kid, the first day was very important. It gave everyone a first impression of you. But I knew better than to trust those first impressions.
Apparently, I had moved here just for this school. A school for mortals and demigods. Like myself. It was my junior year in high school. I had just turned seventeen over the summer.
I had on a striped black and white t-shirt, wearing a draped black vest over my shirt. My shirt clung to my body, showing off my figure. My jean shorts were ripped along the hem at the bottom, and I wore black tights under the shorts. My blond wavy hair was spread lazily on my back. I wore no make-up, of course. Make-up doesn't change who you are inside, and I think more people need to change their personality than their looks. My outfit was complete with striped blue and white converse shoes and a light blue beret.
My back was leaning against the trunk of a tree, and I was sitting at the roots. I had come extra early today, just so I wouldn't be late, since I had a tendacy to do that. The leaves of the tree gave me protection against what heat the sun managed to provided today. I watched as people walked by, talking to their friends.
I had to suppress a sigh at the sight. I had left everything back at my old house, besides a few personal items. But I knew no one at this place.

✂ The trees that the girl leaned on began to rustle, leaves falling down and around as a shadow loomed above her. With a quiet thud of a noise, a body dropped from the trees, landing on one foot and one knee. The person who had inexplicably been lounging in a tree for the past hour held his hand up to catch his had and readjust it on his head before finally drawing his attention to...well...what was he looking for? Clad in a black jacket -- one decorated with many silver ornaments of different meanings -- and an office-like attire -- consisting of pure black slacks, a white button-down, with a tie of course -- and black boots that looked like they were made more for war than school, Ame Kamui was now slightly bothered by the fact that his notebook had dropped somewhere he knew not of. His day had already started out bad, and now it was only serving to become worse as he began to walk around the tree. It was a bad habit of his, really. Sitting in trees and writing out story-lines. It wasn't like he had a deadline soon or anything. He just preferred being high-up rather than on the ground. He took almost no notice of the female who happened to be leaning against the object of his lounging as he frowned. His gaze was empty, though his stature spoke otherwise of being annoyed. This was just great. He had been writing in that damn book for quite a while now, and he didn't enjoy the possibility of losing it. Or having it stolen... "Bothersome..."He looked around a bit more, and -- as he was unable to find it...began to climb back up the tree, not struggling in the least as he pulled himself back up, looking within the branches to see if her had perhaps left it there. A black messenger bag dropped down next to the girl -- oh yeah, he needed the for his classes, he guessed...And he continued to rummage about. "Where is that notebook..."Can't wait 'til they get what they deserve.

Juggling a backpack, and textbooks, Lily made her way through the quad, trying to figure out where she needed to be. She was dressed in denim capris, and a short sleeve, v-neck blue shirt, and brown sandels. Her light blond hair, hung around her shoulders. She was new to Richmond High, and had no idea where she was going. Glancing around, she spotted a young boy and girl near a tree. The boy seemed to be looking for something.
Balencing her textbooks in one arm, she headed over, and spotted a notebook lying on the ground a few feet away. Bending down, she picked it up and headed over. "Looking for this?"She asked, and held it out for him. "Name's Lily by the way."She said, but then her textbooks slipped and spilled out onto the ground. She sighed, and leaned down to pick them up, pushing her hair out of her eyes. Her day was not starting out well.

Rosalyn flinched as the boy jumped out of the tree and landed near her. She hadn't expect anyone to be... Then again, she didn't know anything about this place. Who knows? Maybe jumping out of trees was normal here at this school. She glanced at him in surprise. "Um, hi..." "Bothersome...where is that notebook...?" She blinked and looked around.
She was starting to feel shy as another girl walked up. She had apparently found the boy's notebook. "Name's Lily by the way." Lily, eh? Rosalyn stood up as Lily's books fell on the ground, and she hurried over to Lily to help her pick them up. "Hi, I'm Rosalyn, but you can call me Saphira or Rosie."

✂ Ame blinked as he looked over at the new girl who had walked in on the monkey act he was performing. He jumped down, heading over to the girl and...picking her books up for her as he looked down at her, the one eye he allowed visible holding an inexplicable emotion within it. He handed her the books she had dropped -- the ones that the other girl Rosalyn hadn't grabbed -- and retrieved his notebook, walking over to his messenger bag and tucking it in neatly as he picked it up. "....Ame Kamui. Nice to meet you both."He looked towards the girl named "Lily", taking a moment to collect his thoughts and tear them away from the story he had been working on. Seems like none of these three were having much of a good day. "Thank you."...Wait...Damn. He had forgotten where the office was....He needed to get his class list. High school made him remember way more unnecessary things than home-schooling did. With a soft sigh as he made sure his bag was secured, he turned towards the two girls. "Would either of you know where the main office is...?"When a school needed a map to locate about, it was too much. Ame himself was already falling back into his dream world as he spoke, his eyes closed slightly as it began to glaze over a bit. Reality was a place he hated more than anything else...But in an attempt to not be rude, he would listen if either one of them talked. Besides, they probably knew this school better than him. Can't wait 'til they get what they deserve.

"Thanks. Nice to meet you."Lily said to Rosie, then smiled as Ame handed her her other books. "Thanks, and no problem."She slipped a couple of her books into her backpack, and thought a moment. "I think so. It's the only place I do know how to get to."She looked at him curiously as his eyes glazed over a bit, but just shrugged her shoulders.
"I need to get my schedule from there anyway. And maybe pick up a map while I'm at it."She said, and turned to go, waiting for him to follow. "Want to come Rosie?"She offered, figuring she was also trying to find her way around as well.

Rosalyn nodded at Ame. "Nice to meet you too."
Rosalyn nodded, smiling at the Lily girl. She was nice. Maybe she had just made her first friend at this school? "Thanks, I would like that. This is my first day at the school, anyway. I really don't know where anything is..." Since I misplaced my map... Rosalyn rolled her eyes at her own stupidness. Gods, why did she keep forgetting stuff? At least she wasn't late today... At least one thing didn't go wrong... She smiled at that, knowing to try to make the best out of every day. But of course, there were also some days where you couldn't.

Stay in the lines..
✂ Ame followed the two girls quietly, trailing behind them as his mind slipped back into that dream-like state. His dreams were far from normal, far from safe. When he slipped into this state...All he saw was the world around him. Black and white...Save the people, who were fully colored. The people who lived their lives, trying to aim for "success" or "happiness." It was all just a bittersweet dream the human race had. To think that anything they did would mean something in the end. Birthed by mothers just to die, and claimed by the hand of the Death God himself. The cycle was monotonous, and Ame truly hated it. At least with dreams, one could shape it in anyway they wanted, and no matter what it was...There was always a resolution to work towards. An ending that you could achieve through meaning. His books -- bestsellers for that exact same thought process -- reflected his thoughts, his dreams, with pure ease. Speaking of books, while the two females talked amongst themselves -- as he had an idea that they would -- he pulled out one of his own books "The Crow's Call", and began to read it. Everything to him held no interest, save for the books he wrote and felines, and the world returned such a favor...mostly. The life around him, the noise, all of it...He saw no reason for it. If it was all going to die anyways...why wait? Kill as see fit...It would make the world a quieter place. Speaking of quiet...He hoped he had remembered to bring his iPod with him for when he got into class. He know he had the tape recorder...He wouldn't be able to take listening to a woman or man drone on about topics he already knew so much of. He might shoot himself or worse. ....He should have stuck with home-schooling. What will people think of what you're done this time?

Rosalyn had her bag slung over her shoulder. It was green, the color of her eyes, with curly designs drawn on it. She glanced back over her shoulder to make sure Ame was following. She stopped walking as Ame started falling behind and stood there to wait for him to catch up. He seemed to be deep in thought, his eyes glazed. She frowned. "Ame. You okay?"

Lily nodded. "Same here."She led them inside the school, her light purple backpack still slung over her shoulder. She glanced back at Ame. He was kinda....weird. The way his eyes seemed to glaze over, he seemed to hardly be there at all. But there was something about him. Something she couldn't quite put her finger on. "Yeah, you okay Ame?"She asked, then looked forward again, thinking hard. She had had a map, but had forgotten it in her car. If she remembered correctly the office was this way. She took a right turn down a long hallway, then a left turn, to wind up.....at the library. She sighed. "Technical difficulites. I'll figure out where we are. If I can't even figure out how to get around a building, my mom will disown me. Athena that is."She said, though she said the last part quietly. Being a demigod, she could tell that the other two were as well, though she didn't know of what god. She stopped and thought hard, then it hit her.
She started walking again, glancing back to make sure the other two were still following. After a couple more turns, she finally found the office. "There, I'm not a daughter of Athena for nothing. Now just to find the classrooms. Both of you here for schedules?"She asked, forgetting about her earlier question to Ame.

✂ That previously glazed eye blinked and Ame looked forward to the females, slightly...confused, as to why they were asking him if he was alright. People did not take time to question his health. Not even his editor had the heart to ask that. He slowly slid his book back into his bag and adjusted his hat, his gaze turning to the left as he became slightly awkward at the attention on him. Why would he be noticed...He was just there, and his presence always led to deadened conversations. Mostly because the few who attempted to talk to him were...not on his intellect level, or found him to be creepy due to his quiet nature. Perhaps his next book should be something involving human psychology... "...I'm...fine. Don't concern yourself with my well-being, if you would indulge in the request. It's rather...confusing when I am worried about."He continued to follow them, noting that they had made it to the library, rather than the office, but saying nothing of it. He straightened his jacket as her saw the office eventually come into sight while he continued to follow her. A daughter of Athena? Hmm. He might actually find a decent chat in her...though it was unlikely. Most his age were usually too busy fantasizing about members of the opposite -- or same, sometimes -- sex, and what they were going to wear the next day. When she asked on the schedule, he walked past her and into the office, being polite as to make sure not to bump into her or anything as he held the door open for them. "...Correct..."Can't wait 'til they get what they deserve.

Rosalyn barely caught Lily's silent words. "Athena, that is." She raised her eyebrows in interest and surprise. So she was a demigod too? Well, Rosalyn should have noticed by her gray eyes before anyway... How many demigods were at this school?
"...It's rather...confusing when I am worried about." "...Alright." He didn't fine, and he hesitated when he said that he was fine. She knew he was lying, or at least wasn't telling the entire truth. That was part of how she was a child of Hermes.
She quickly followed Lily as she took a few more twists and turns until reaching the office. Then she said it again. She wasn't a daughter of Athena for nothing... "Both of you here for schedules?" Rosalyn blinked as she glanced at Lily. "Yeah. Um, thanks for leading us." She leaned against the door and smiled at Ame. "I've got the door. You can go."

He was different. Not different in a bad way, just....different. He was a little strange, but there was something about him. He didn't seem to be fine, but if he didn't want to talk about it, that was his buisness. "Thanks."She said to Rosie, before slipping inside.
She walked over to the lady at the desk. "Lily Teirm. I need my schedule."The woman nodded, and handed it to her. Glancing at it she saw a few of her classes were on sword fighting, history of the greeks, Athena, among other things, including a greek language class. Her Athena class was first, probably all about her mom, and want things children of her could do. Besides act smart.

✂ He blinked once before letting the door go for her to hold, nodding in respect as his eye turned to the desk and waited for Lily to get her schedule before speaking up about his. This woman at the desk reminded him of...a woman that caused darker days. She looked strict, well-made, professional. The light in his eye -- the one that came about from time to time when he wasn't paying attention -- dimmed almost immediately. Those were memories he preferred to not be aware of, remember, or anything of the like for the sake of his mental process. He walked to the desk, keeping his gaze down at the woman as he made his request. "I am here to pick up my schedule...Ame Kamui..."He was lucky that the connection wasn't made -- as his editor had refused to let him go with a pen name -- to his books, and thanked her quietly as he was handed a schedule. He glanced at it with a necessary interest, the first class being something regarding Thanatos. He would get to come here in the morning and listen all about his deity father now. Wonderful. A writing class was on there -- ironically -- along with Latin, Greek, fencing...Herbal Studies...He stopped caring after he saw the times and room numbers, really. He went over to the door, placing his hand above Rosalyn's head as he held it. Looking down at her, his voice was soft, neutral. It lacked any type of emotion really, and he...mostly preferred it that way. His gaze held the same traits, making him quite unreadable to most people...Though he wouldn't be surprised if some demigod children here were able to make out something. They had the ability to pry, and most usually used it. He did feel obligated to be kind and help out either of the girls, since one had been kind enough to help them, and he had terrified the other one by dropping out of a tree somewhat. "You should go get yours...I will walk with both of you to your classes if it is convenient."The words made no sense to him, but...most things in society didn't, so there was no need to really...bother. All he needed to know was that he was attempting to be polite, and it was simply left at that. He may be cold, but he had manners. All I know is, everybody "loves" me.

Lily watched Ame closely as he got his schedule. He was unlike any boy she had ever met. Quiet, distant, almost at times in his own world, not really noticing anything going on around him. So unlike boys she had met at her old school. Boys were always flirting, always trying to get a date. And Lily, with her blond hair, stormy gray eyes, and wealthy parents, had drawn them like flies to honey. But she hadn't been interested in boys. Should a decent one have asked her out, she probably would have said yes. But she was more focused on her school work, a trait they hadn't found attractive. Then she had met Devon. A very unwelcoming memory.
At first he had seemed like a really nice guy. He had cared about her, listened to her, something she rarely got from her parents. He had been a great boyfriend till she had refused to take it to the next level. She hadn't been ready, still wasn't, and that infuriated him. He had turned agressive, controling, and just downright mean. He was the main reason she had moved here. To get away from him, her demanding parents, and her school life where she had been a loner. She knew first hand that money didn't buy happiness. And already, Richmondhigh was turning out to be better than her old school. Rosie seemed nice, some one who might eventually become a good friend. Ame she wasn't sure about. She would just have to wait and see about him.
She slipped her schedule into her backpack, and nodded. "Sounds good. We'll have to head to the demigod buidling where all our classes are. I've got a class on my mom first. Oh, a map."She grabbed one from the desk, and opened it, scanning the page to find where they needed to go. "Where are you two headed?"She asked, grabbing one for each of them, and handing Ame his. Or at least handing it out to him to see if he wanted one. With him, she had no idea.
