OPEN DAY!!!

Oh...nice to meet you Ryu...." Emelie said trying to be friendly, but feeling a little defensive in front of the boy still. Then another boy came and said something about missing names.... and Emelie took a deep breathe of relief, relaxing a little bit now that she knew there had been a mistake. The last thing Emelie wanted was to be left in japan without anywhere to go. She approached the boy with the list.

"Emelie Hedingsjö" the blonde girl corrected as she walked to the side of the boy, raising her sunglasses with one hand to look at his notepad. "so... were am I going?"

Shizuka Tsuzaki was in a particularly good mood when she arrived at her new quarters. The Devil Violet had mellowed out since arriving in AFW. She met the first man she could respect in Rin-sensei, found a few kindred souls in Sex Wars, met a surrogate older sister and object of lust in Yatori, and had even gotten used to the presence of Tai Kamiya. But best of all, Shizuka had finally reunited with her beloved older sister Aoba.

So nothing could ruin her good mood. She could live with having to fight her fellow Kyomu member Kelli DiVanetti, who was in a rival house, in a match some day; she even looked forward to it. She didn't care much about Taka Takaishi, though him being the boyfriend of Shizuka's best friend Kairi Kamiya meant she would have to hold back against him. And she definitely lusted after the chance to get revenge on one Ryu Takeda.

But most of all, Aoba was accompanying her to Suzaku. And Shizuka wanted nothing more than to impress her oneechan.

"Well, well, if it isn't Takaishi-kun," she chuckled."Fancy seeing you here."

"Geh," Taka groaned. Unlike his girlfriend or his girlfriend's brother, the former basketball player was rightly intimidated by the infamous Devil Violet, and not just the wooden sword that Kairi had told him hid a real blade. "Uh, hi, Shizuka-san, Aoba-san..."

"Hello, Takaishi-kun! How are you?" Aoba greeted him.

"I'm fine, Aoba-san, thank you." Taka was exceeding polite to her not just because of her psychotic sister but because she was a very nice girl whom he slightly crushed on.

"So we're in opposing houses," Shizuka observed with a sugary smile that wasn't all faked. "Well, may the best fighter win, then." She looked around the area, spotting Ryu's familiar face, wondering where Kelli was...

Kai Kamiya groaned and cracked his neck, hefting his heavy back of clothes on his back, the former fashion model entering the assembly hall and looking about to see if there was anyone he knew. And indeed he soon would find someone.

"Taka! Hows it going buddy! Long time no see!"

He said as he walked up to Taka Takaishi, soon followed by another cry.

"TAKA!!" Kairi Kamiya yelled, running up to them and dropping some bags from her arms before making out with her boyfriend. While not a member of Tension Heights, she had volunteered to help carry Kai's bags.

Seeing Kai relieved Taka to no end. "Kai-san!" he greeted his trainer. "Please let me take your gear for you!"

His good intentions were quickly forgotten, though, as a more pressing matter came up. "KAIRI!" And then he and his girlfriend were all over each other, kissing and tonguing and necking in sight of everyone else, including the embarrassed Aoba and the amused Shizuka.

"T-they're very affectionate, aren't they, Shiba-chan..."

"They sure are, oneechan..."

Kai looked away from the nearly humping couple and turned towards the sisters.

"Oh hey....Your Shizuka right? Your the one that beat Tai and then gave him that concussion.....and that scar...and that other scar....and that other scar....and that other concussion....and that blowjob....and that other scar.....and that bruise....and that other bruise....and that broken arm....and that broken leg.....and that flesh wound.....and that coma....and that broken rib....and that toaster to the head....and that burn....and the bleeding...."

After rattling the injuries off, Kai held out his hand.

"Anyway, Im Kai Kamiya, Im Tai's younger brother....if we end up facing each other here...youll find Im faaaar less hentai obsessed then Tai....and who is this lovely lady with you?"

"Same here, see you around Emelie". Ryu smiled back to the blonde cutie.
Thinking he'd give her time and room to get acquainted with the new situation, he decided to take the key and have a look to his House, so he turned towards that voluptuous girl, which he only knew by name: 'Fang' Hiromi.

"Oh, it's you Shizu-cha... erm i mean Shizuka san", he corrected himself not without a slight blush at the unexpected meet. "Heh yea, looks like destiny want us to be rivals after all", he said returning her enigmatic smile. It was a nice sensation to see a known face after all, even if she had tried to kill him during their latest meet.
"Oh and, sorry, where are my manners? I'm Ryuke Toranami, nice to meet you", he would add, having noticed the cute girl standing beside the poisonous violet.

Darren raised an eyebrow no acknowledgment what so ever, no confirmation about the house no hello not even a glance just silence at least silence directed towards him. No matter it just meant he could go elsewhere and catch up with some Z's although to be honest he didn't think that he needed anything like that. It wasn't long until what seemed to be the meeting area slowly filled up and the appeal to sleeping slowly faded. Nobody he really recognized and that wasn't an ideal environment for sleeping at all.

He was pretty sure that various things could happen if he was in a passed out state none of which sounded all that appealing. Slowly making his way over to one of the many tables he dragged his feet lazily across the floor before collapsing on one of the seats, it felt good to get the weight off his feet. Lightly he rested his elbow on the table his hand on his chin as he slowly closed his eyes. a small sigh escaping his lips before reopening them so he could examine pretty much everyone that made their way through the door.

Dominic did spare a moment to look at Darren as he lazily walked passed... His demeanor and mannerism made him somewhat difficult to approach though and surely even more difficult to start up conversation. Dominic certainly hoped that he didn't end up in a house that was full of lazy antisocial people who couldn't be bothered to do stuff..

"Hmm Emelie... Looks like you're in Seiryuu. I'm Genbu...? Could have sworn I was going to go to Seiryuu too.." He looked around "Oh well, wonder if there are any Genbu members here yet.."

"Ahhhh Seiryuu!" Emelie said with a very happy smile. She didn't knew a thing about house systems, chinese constellation or azure dragons, but
she had a house and was now 'in', and that made her very happy.

"Oh. Don't feel bad for not being in the same house as me..." Emelie said to Dominic, covering her mouth to giggle. "You can't win them all..." the cute blonde said and then she turned around to see the girl she have heard talking about dorm keys.

"Seiryuu key, pleaseeeee..." Emelie chanted as she approached Fang, and waved her hand good bye to Cecilia and Ryu.

"heh.. Well I guess I'll just have to win against you then.." Dominic muttered under his breath as Emelie started to move away.


Meanwhile a new challen- I mean a new face appeared, stepping in through the assembly room door dressed in her leather bike gear, a pair of aviator sunglasses on her head and a bag held over one shoulder. She made a B line right through the crowd towards the big screen, using her hand to flick back her short purple hair... It was of course the hell cat Kelli DiVanetti.

Her eyes scanned the monitor under her sunglasses for a moment... although she hadn't seen Shizuka in the crowd, she did find her name on the list before even her own..

*hmm.. Suzaku huh? I guess they should have me in the same group...*

However she looked down the list and couldn't see her name... Instead, she found her name nestled deeply within the house just above from Suzaku...

"Byakko..? what the hell?!"
