Chapter 2

The German Campus was simply impressive, it resembled the Japanese one that looked like a castle but the St. Mari here was more like a big old mansion. The door was huge and rusty which gave the house a mysterious aura, as Ichigo entered curiously. So this is going to be her new home. Instead of the Café St. Mari, the mansion has a traditional bakery in the first floor, showing all the different cakes through the shop windows. They were students working, preparing Bienenstich or Bee Sting, a sweet yeast dough with a baked-on topping of caramelized almonds and filled with a vanilla custard, butter cream or simply cream; Baumkuchen or Tree cake, made of characteristic rings that appear when it was sliced resembling tree rings. It was amazing, how they worked in a disciplined and calm way. Fuyuki smiled at the brown-haired girl. "The campus is a little bit different but I think you will feel like home soon, especially with your Vanilla". Ichigo looked at him surprised. "Sweets Fairies? You can see them?"

A little fairy appeared in front of the girl. She had long white blonde hair that covered one eye and ice blue eyes. She wore a blue dress with a lot of laces and ribbons as also a white apron. "I'm Icing". Icing gave Vanilla a smile. "I can show you around, if you want to". Both became friends really fast and went ahead.

"You know, Ichigo-san. There are many exchange students here and you will meet then today, so don't worry about your German". Fuyuki showed Ichigo her room. It was a large room in which there were pane lings on the walls and the furniture was made of dark wood. A window separated two beds in the middle. "Your roommate will show you around then, I have to talk to the principle first". He left and winked at her as a good-bye.

Ichigo put her luggage besides the fresh-made bed and lied down. So much confusion, just yesterday she was in Japan, then a guy named Fuyuki brought her to Germany and she didn't even know who he was or what kind of connection he had with Hanabusa. As Ichigo nearly fell asleep, the door was opened brutally and a petite girl stormed in. "Mein Gott (My god)! I think I'll die if I have to work with that trio again!" She was pretty with short black hair in bob style and burning orange eyes. She wore the usual uniform of St. Mari in Germany: a cream colored button-down, a brown skirt and deep red tie. Over that she had a white apron which was quite dirty from baking. She stared at her new roommate for a moment and her angry face turned happy. "Ichigo Amano? Nice to meet you!" She hugged Ichigo immediately and dirtied her clothes. "I'm Anzu. Anzu Kuroyami! I am so happy a have a roommate finally!" She then turned around and shouted loudly. "Thanks, Fuyuki-sensei!". Ichigo stared at her in confusion, but the girl already pushed her out of the room. "Come on, let's meet the others!"

Both girls entered the cooking hall, it wasn't modern like the Japanese campus, rather old, but unique. Everything had the color of cream or a reddish brown. No one besides three boys was there. Ichigo ran to them, to see what they were doing, as she smelled something really delicious. A boy with midnight blue hair was taking a cake from the oven. He balanced it to the working table, but as Ichigo stood in front, he couldn't move at all. "This is an amazing cake!", she praised. The golden eyes of the boy glared at her. "Rather than talking, shouldn't you move aside? You're ruining my cake". His voice was cold and Ichigo quickly moved aside. "Geez, just like Kashi-". She stopped and nearly cried again by only mentioning him. "Mitsuki-kun, don't be so rude to her, she just transferred", said another boy, he had deep dark red hair and friendly brown eyes. The last boy laughed and winked at the two girls. "There you brought someone interesting Anzu-chan". His hair was blonde and his eyes light green. They all were really handsome in their own style. "That doesn't matter, she's disturbing", said the boy coolly, called Mitsuki as he went on with his work, ignoring the newcomer. Anzu pouted angrily. "Okay, let me introduce Ichigo-chan to her new team". Suddenly a piping bag fell on the floor and Mitsuki looked thunderstruck at Anzu. "N-New Team member? Don't tell me-". The said girl grinned. "Yeah, I asked Fuyuki-sensei about that. After all we all are exchange students". Then she ignored the poor boy who continued with his work in a really gloomy way. "Let's see, the gloomy boy there is Mitsuki Kamino-kun. Then we have Kaede Machida-kun". The red haired boy smiled politely. "And Ichirou Asakura-kun". The blonde boy shook her hand in the German way. "Don't worry, you will take German lessons soon, besides of French". Anzu nodded eagerly. "Ichirou-kun was born in the United States, Kaede-kun is from Canada and I am from the French Campus". Ichigo wanted to ask something as she was interrupted by Mitsuki. "Der Potsdamer Festtagskuchen ist fertig (The Potsdamer Festtagskuchen is ready to serve)". He then left the hall, balancing many cakes outside.

"What did he just say?", asked Ichigo curiously.

"Ah, you don't know yet. There is a bakery here, right? Every week a team is chosen to prepare the pastries and this time, it was our turn", explained Ichirou and washed his hands. "Anzu-chan, you're cleaning up, while you Ichigo-chan should practice now. Tomorrow's your turn". His tone sounded like he was used to command people.

"Y-Yes. What should I make?".

The blonde boy exchanged few looks with Kaede.

"What about Zwieback Wildbeeren Tiramisu (Zwieback Forest Berry Tiramisu)? You have the whole day to practice Amano-san", said Kaede and Ichigo thought that he really resembled Andou-kun. Both were more calm and collected.

As the boys left, Ichigo began to work. "Those boys sure are talented". She saw Mitsuki decorating the cakes, Kaede tempering and Ichirou working with marzipan sculptures, and everything was in a really high level, she had never seen. "Kind of, I mean, for example Kaede-kun. He's from Canada and his parents abandoned him in an orphanage, he used to take care of all his 'siblings' as the oldest one and there he discovered his talent to bake in a young age, when he was helping in the kitchen", Anzu then added. "But never mentioned that in front of him". "Okay! What about Ichirou-kun?". Ichigo wanted to know the most she can about her new team. The black-haired girl laughed. "He is such a son of a rich company. Spoiled brat. Actually he was studying under the care of professionals around the world, among Henri Lucas-sensei, Tsubasa Amaya-sensei and more. His father asked them to come, because he wanted the only best for his son. Before you ask, I know nothing about Mitsuki-kun. I just heard, he was one of the teachers for Ichirou-kun, before he transferred to the German campus. Actually that guy transferred a lot". Anzu then finished the last plate and smiled. "I'm going then Ichigo, call if you have problems". She left quickly.

Ichigo stared at the cake she was supposed to make. She had no idea.

"How exactly should I make this cake!", she complained.

"Stop shouting". Mitsuki suddenly entered the hall to get more cakes. On his way he glimpsed at Ichigo's supposed-to-be cake. "Looks awful", he said and went by coldly.
