Neji woke up the next day in a small bedroom with a girl hovering over him.
"HI, NEJI-CHAN!!" The girl screamed.
Neji fell off of the small, brick-like bed. "JEEZ! SCARE ME HALF TO DEATH, WOULD YOU!?"
"I just did" The girl smiled widely.
Neji sweat dropped. "Wait, I know you..." Neji's eyes went wide. "K-Kendra?"
The girl's smile got even wider. "YOU BET YOUR ASS, IT'S ME!"
Kendra was a very skinny girl and about 5' 6", 5' 7" maybe. Her dark brown hair was almost black and slightly messy. Freckles were spread across her pale face and her eyes almost matched her hair, they were just a little lighter.
Neji was still very confused. "Why are you in my room?"
"This is my room, silly! Well, it's our room now, but it was mine first..."
"WOAH, WOAH, WOAH! Our room?! What do you mean our room?!" Neji panicked.
"We're sharing a room, silly! You read all of the files, you know how many people are here! You didn't think you'd get your own room, did you?"
Neji hit his head against the wall repeatedly. "This cannot be happening..."
"Oh, it's happening Neji, IT'S HAPPENING!" Kendra laughed evilly.
Neji looked at Kendra and raised an eyebrow.
Kendra went back to her normal, retardedly happy self. "So! Time to give you the tour!" Kendra skipped out of the room merrily.
"WAIT! If this is our room, where are Linda and Leonardo going to sleep?" Neji asked innocently.
"They can sleep on the floor, can't they?" Kendra asked. Sadly, she knew everything about Neji and his imaginary friends.
"No! Linda's pregnant, she can't sleep on the floor!"
"OH!" Kendra turned in the direction that Linda was apparently in. "Congrats! When's it due?"
"SHE'S due in June!" Neji responded for Linda.
"Oh, that's when my birthday is! Who's the father? Neji?"
"No, not me, you retard! Leonardo! God, it's like you don't know anything..."
"Well, it could have been Vince, too!"
"Vince was hit by a train!"
"Oh, really! Aw, man! Vince was cool..." There was a moment of silence
"...Aren't you supposed to be giving me a tour?" Neji asked with one eyebrow raised.
"OH, YEAH!" Kendra jumped up off of her bed. "TO THE CAFETERIA!" Kendra skipped out of the room with Neji following her against his will.
As Kendra skipped down the hall, she waved to everyone that passed and said hello. However, Neji hid his face from anyone who tried to make eye contact, not wanting to be seen with this retarded person...thing...
"Here's the cafeteria!" Kendra said a minute or two later.
Neji looked around. The cafeteria was a lot like one of a high school, everyone gathered in certain groups, the food looked like crap, the tables and chairs looked cheap, and no matter where you were someone was glaring at you.
"We're expected to EAT here?" Neji cringed.
"Well, YEAH!" Kendra exclaimed. "What the hell else are we supposed to do in a cafeteria, arts and crafts?! OH! Speaking of arts and crafts, I'll show you the group therapy rooms!" Kendra skipped off again. Neji sighed, hung his head and followed.
Kendra showed Neji another room. The room was fairly large, but the only things in the room were chairs; lots and lots of chairs gathered in a circle in the middle of the room.
"This is the main therapy room!" Kendra shouted. "This is where we usually meet for therapy, but there a couple other rooms we meet in on occasion. I'll show you where those are..." Kendra dragged Neji along with her to the room next door.
This room looked EXACTLY like an elementary school art classroom. It had light brown tables that looked like it was made of wood, but it was probably some sort of cheap-plasicy material. The tables also had blotches of paint and glue spots all over them. The walls were covered in retarded-like posters that spelled out safety rules in simple steps only a five year old would need to read.
"...What the fuck?" Neji said after he looked around the room. "What is this room for?"
"Arts and crafts, silly! Stupid Neji, McDonalds is for albinos!"
"...I'm a soccer mom?"
"Yes. Yes you are." Kendra smiled retardedly as Neji sweat dropped. "Now, there's one other room that we meet in to get our monthly project. TO THE OTHER ROOM!" Kendra grabbed Neji's arm and dragged him to the next room.
"Okay, is there some sort of school theme going on here?" Neji asked Kendra as he looked around the room.
Now, this room looked a lot like a classroom you'd find at an elementary school. Small desks with the chairs connected to them, a big desk in front, and a large chalkboard behind it.
"You know, that's the first thing I said when I first saw this place..." Kendra trailed off.
"Great. I'm in a mental institute that's has some sort of school-like theme, I have no friends, and now I'm like you. Can I just go back to my room now?"
"No friends, huh? I SHALL INTRODUCE YOU TO SOME OF MY FRIENDS!"
"Wait, no, I have SOME friend-" But Neji was too late. Kendra had already dragged Neji around a corner and into another room that looked almost exactly like Neji and Kendra's, only a little messier.
"RACHEL! MADDIE! MARITE! LIZZIE!" Kendra screamed at the top of her lungs, making Neji fall to the floor, clutching his head.
"Yes, Kendra?" Two girls said in unison.
The first girl was a redhead. Her hair made her look a little like Shirley Temple, but in a good way . She was kind of short, somewhere around 5' 0", and her eyes were blue-ish.
The second girl was Asian, Chinese, Japanese perhaps. Her hair was black and reached a little past her shoulders and her eyes were brown. She was a lot taller than the other girl, 5' 7" probably.
"Hi Maddie, Marite!" Kendra waved to them retardedly and they waved back.
"Hey, is that Neji?" The redhead asked.
"Yup" Kendra nodded and smiled.
"Hi, I'm Maddie," Maddie turned to Neji. "And, don't worry, you'll get used to her..."
"Sure I will..." Neji said sarcastically.
"And I'm Marite!" The other girl screamed in Neji's ear.
Neji's eye twitched.
Marite laughed. "Don't worry. It'll take a while, but you'll get used to us"
"Whatever..." Neji sighed. Now there were more people that were a lot like Kendra. Could this day get worse?
"So, Liz and Rachel still in their rooms?" Kendra asked Marite and Maddie.
"Yeah. I think they're still sleeping..." Marite said.
"Well, we'll just have to fix that!" Kendra grabbed Neji's arm. "See ya later, guys!"
Maddie and Marite waved to Kendra and Neji as they left.
"That poor soul..." Maddie mumbled to Marite as soon as they were out of earshot.
"Hey, Liz, you up?" Kendra called into the room next to Maddie and Marite's.
"Yeah..." The girl said from her bed, half asleep.
"Lizzie, get up! I must introduce you to Neji!"
"Fine..." Lizzie got up from her bed and stretched.
Liz was a little shorter than Kendra, she was probably about 5' 5". Her hair was light brown and curly and her eyes were . She wasn't pale, but she defiantly not tan.
"Hi, Lizzie!" Kendra shouted.
"Hi, Kendra!" Lizzie shouted back.
"Oh god..." Neji sighed.
"It's okay Neji! This is Lizzie!" Kendra pointed at Liz who waved at him, smiling retardedly.
"That's great, can we go now?"
"Sure! See ya later, Lizzie!" Kendra skipped away with Neji following her, shaking his head.
"Who does she share a room with?" Neji asked Kendra.
"A girl named Junna, I'll introduce you to her later!"
"Joy..."
They walked into the room across the hall from Liz's room. Instead of just walking into the room, Kendra actually knocked on the door.
"H-hello?" Haku asked timidly as he opened the door. Neji remembered reading about 'her' in the file room. Poor girl...
"Hi, Haku. Is Rachel there?" Kendra asked.
"Yeah. I'll get her for you..."
"Thanks, Haku!" Kendra smiled at 'her'. Kendra turned to Neji. "He's really a nice guy. Most people think he's a girl, though. It's sad..."
"And you know this how?" Neji knew he'd regret asking, but he wanted to know.
"You want him to prove it to you?" Kendra asked him.
"No, no. I believe you..."
"That's what I thought..." Kendra smirked.
The door opened and a girl that was about 5' 9" stepped out into the hallway. Her eyes were green-ish brown and out lined with her thickly rimmed glasses. She had light brown hair that was usually curly, but she straightened it that morning.
There was a moment of silence.
"MRAAAAA!" The two girls screamed loudly in unison.
Neji plugged his ears as they screamed.
"HI, RACHEL-SAN!" Kendra screamed.
"HI, KENDRA-SENPAI!" Rachel screamed back.
"THIS IS NEJI, RACHEL-SAN!" Kendra pointed to Neji who was still plugging his ears.
"THAT'S AMAZING, KENDRA-SENPAI!"
"WHY ARE WE SCREAMING, RACHEL-SAN?!"
"I DON'T KNOW, KENDRA-SENPAI!"
"WOO!" They screamed in unison.
"Okay, I need to bring Neji to Mr. Weaver's office, see ya later!" Kendra laughed and dragged Neji through a couple more hallways to a big office.
"Okay, Neji! This is Mr. Weaver's office! He's going to tell you the rules and stuff. Bye!" Kendra said quickly and shoved Neji through the door to the big office.
