Kakashi arrived to school on time for once. Actually he was a little early. Sighing softly, he pulled his phone from his pocket and checked the time. It was 7:30, meaning he still had thirty minutes to kill. What could he possibly do for thirty minutes? He could always go to the library and sleep, but if he did that, he'd most likely sleep through first period. He pondered quietly to himself while he made his way to his locker. It wasn't like he had anything in there yet, so he just decided to sit in front of it and wait for the day to begin. He watched as the halls slowly started to fill with students, most of them not even bothering to make eye contact with him. He couldn't help but chuckle to himself when no one would even bother to look at him. He thought he'd make it through the entire day with no one bothering him but he was soon proven wrong when a familiar voice called out to him.

"Kakashi!" When the grey haired male heard his name, he looked up and saw who was making his way toward him. One of the very few people who feared him.

"Tenzou. There you are." Kakashi replied simply as the brunette stopped beside the spot he was sitting at. The brunette wasted no time flopping himself down beside Kakashi and landing a playful punch on the grey haired male's shoulder.

"You never responded to my text messages. I honestly thought you ignored them and weren't going to come." Tenzou said with a bit of a huff.

"Well, you texted me so damn early that I didn't have enough brainpower to processes anything. You know I hate being woken up that early." Kakashi replied lazily. Tenzou couldn't help but laugh, his head shaking slightly.

"You never change. You probably never will either but that isn't a bad thing. It'd be weird if you were any different." Tenzou grinned slightly and stretched his arms out in front of himself. He was the only person Kakashi allowed to get close to him, mostly because they had been friends since they were children and he didn't feel right trying to shut the other out. He knew a lot of other students thought Tenzou was crazy for hanging out with him, but of course the brunette ignored everything and stayed by Kakashi's side. In a way, Kakashi was grateful for it, but he'd never say that out loud.

"Kakashi. Do you plan on trying to do better in school this year?" Tenzou suddenly asked. The question had caught Kakashi off guard slightly, but he soon let out a sigh and shook his head.

"No. I don't. I don't see a point in trying to do better. I have no one to impress and even if my father was still around, I doubt I'd be doing much better. I plan on following down the same path my father did, only I won't let anyone else join me. I'm the last one of the gang and it will live on with me until the day I take my last breath." Kakashi replied in a low tone. He was already determined to follow down this path, and he didn't plan on changing for anyone.

"I thought you'd say that, but I still had to ask. Although...you know he didn't want you to go down this path. He wanted you to get out while you still could. If you keep going, you'll soon be a wanted man, even if you're only picking fights and mugging people." Tenzou muttered softly. He hated seeing Kakashi on this path, but he also knew it was pointless to try and change the silver haired male's mind. Then he suddenly remembered something he had heard a couple weeks ago and meant to tell the other. "That reminds me…" He paused and looked toward his friend.

"Hmm?" Kakashi slowly lifted his gaze toward the brunette beside him. "What is it, Tenzou?" He asked with a hint of curiosity in his eyes.

"A couple weeks ago, there were a few people talking in the store I was shopping in and I overheard them say that a new group had come to town. Right now it's only a group of three, and they're suspected to be a new gang in town. They say this small group has red clouds tattooed on their arms, in the same spot yours is in and I heard that they all look pretty scary." Tenzou said lowly. He knew he couldn't let the news of a new gang be heard too loudly. He didn't want to cause the students to panic.

"Oh? A new gang huh? With red clouds as their symbol. You said there's only about three of them? That's hardly a gang. I could take down three people without breaking a sweat." Kakashi shrugged slightly and stood himself up as the five minute warning bell rang.

"Heh. I also heard they're still looking for members to join them. Three may not seem like much now, but if they're looking for more people I'm sure their reputation will grow and they'll be feared soon." Tenzou stood up as well and grabbed his own bag. The pair started making their way to class together, continuing to speak quietly to each other about this new gang and what they might be like. Kakashi's curiosity was exploding and honestly, he was itching for a new challenge. He really hoped this new group of people would give him such a challenge. With this new information, the year was starting to seem like it would be an interesting one after all.

A small group of three...with red clouds as their symbol… Who were they? How many more people would they end up with? Kakashi's mind was buzzing with questions. He wanted to see them soon, very soon and he would, even if he had to track them down himself.

Little did Kakashi know, the three Tenzou had mentioned were already much closer than he could even think. Just as the two disappeared into their class room, three new students made their way into the school. The remaining kids in the hallways paused when they saw the three mysterious people who entered the school. One had spiky orange hair, lavender colored eyes, light colored skin and several piercings on his face and in his ears, the second one had tan skin, dark green eyes that looked as if they could see right through your soul, and long raven hair that fell over his shoulders, and the third one, the one who looked as if he were leading the other two had short, spiky raven hair, eyes that were dark and looked cold, and skin that looked as if it were the perfect combination between the other two. He had dark skin, but it wasn't as dark as the male with the long hair. Also, along the right side of his face and neck were scars that looked as if they had been there for awhile.

Something else that stuck out about these three, they were all dressed in similar clothes. The leader was wearing a black short sleeved shirt and dark colored jeans, the orange haired male had a black sleeveless shirt on and torn up black skinny jeans, and the other raven was wearing a short sleeved grey shirt, and black pants as well. One other thing, on their right arms, just below the shoulder were tattoos that looked exactly the same.

Red clouds...one on each of them…
