Chapter 1: Shibuya University
"Ahh it's about damn time we got here!" Tai said and stretched his cramped legs from riding the train for hours. Taichi Kamiya, along with his good friends Matt Ishida and Izzy Izumi had finally arrived to Shibuya University. It was a hot day at the end of August and as the trio stepped off the train and into the light of the city, they felt the immense heat. Shibuya University was about another fifteen minutes of walking, just on the outskirts of the city. Lugging his huge duffel bag over his head, Tai leads the group into the city. After about ten minutes of walking, the group notices the big building that is the university looming over the horizon.
"C'mon guys, school's in sight now! We got this down!" Tai shouts enthusiastically and begins to pick up the pace. Matt and Izzy attempt to be enthusiastic as well but the heat won't let them. Five minutes later, the three exhausted boys enter Shibuya University's main lobby.
"Hello boys may I help you?" the lady at the front desk asked politely. She was an older lady who seemed to enjoy her rather monotonous job of receiving the many registrations from freshman every year.
"Uh, yeah we're here to receive freshman class assignments and rooms?" Matt said calmly, pretending like he wasn't out of breath and sweaty from the walk to school.
"Ahh ok and you're names are?" The lady asked the three boys, and Izzy was the first to respond.
"He's Matt Ishida, I'm Izzy Izumi, and that's Tai Kamiya." said Izzy. THe desk lady nodded and began typing on her computer. A few clicks were made and the printer behind her began to spit out several papers. The lady took a look at all the papers and then went into a small closet to the right of the printer. She returned with three room keys and grabbed the papers.
"Here you are boys! Tai, Matt, and Izzy. Those papers are your university schedules. On the top of them also has your room numbers on them and the keys do as well.I really hope you enjoy it here!" The desk lady said happily and bid the boys goodbye. The trio started walking toward the dorms and began examining their papers.
"Ah I got Dorm 121! What did you guys get?" Izzy said happily. Room 121 was a bottom floor dorm which meant Izzy was closer to his classes, and Izzy did not enjoy being late.
"Izzy we're roommates! I have the same number dorm!" Matt said excitedly. Izzy high-fived Matt and then turned to look at Tai to see where his dorm was.
"Hmm well I'm at Dorm 136. Still at least I'm on the same floor as you guys, but I wonder who my roommate will be. He'd better be a chill guy!" Tai said, rather disappointed but also intrigued to find out who's bunking with him.
"Well Tai we're gonna head to our dorm, why don't you go see if your rommates in the dorm already?" Matt said. Tai nodded and the boys parted for the day. Tai walked along the bottom floor of the dorms for what seemed like forever until he finally came to Dorm 136. It was the very last dorm on the bottom floor and it was right before the staircase leading to the upper level dorms. He slid the key into the lock on the door and with a few jiggles of the lock, he got the door to open. It was a rather plain room, with two beds on one side of the room. At the other end of the room was a plain square table, for eating and doing school work. There were two small dressers near what looked to be the bathroom door, and they looked like they could just barely hold all of Tai's things. As Tai was about to explore the bathroom, he heard another key in the lock. This must be the other guy I gotta bunk with, thought Tai. The door opened.
