Haha...yeah I know I'm starting to be really bad at this updating
thing...but honestly I keep running out of excuses... I mean I believe I've
already said it was because of family deaths 5 times...and I'm running out
of family members to pin it on...so yeah...on with the story then!

Kie's eyes were transfixed upon the clock hanging on the wall. Its soft ticking could be scarcely heard, but Kie who was concentrating on it so intently, could hear its faint ticking. Time after all, is everything. In the background he could hear Mr. Sayake trying to keep his enthusiasm while explaining that tangent theta was the equivalent to sine over cosine. (A/N: ha-ha...sounds like my math school teacher...except she's cool)
From the corner of his eye he caught a pencil flying at him. Without thinking his hand came out and grasped the obtrusive object that was heading for his left temple. The class, who were at first pretending to listen to the lesson, now looked at him, recalculating how large a threat he would be in their course of escape. He had not meant to give away any status information on himself when it came to physical tactics. Their eyes silently looked at his face in awe. A few however, tried to look less than impressed, now very aware of the presence of females in their classroom.
They had formed two co-ed classes in the midst of all the others for of course, Ms. Cole was now gone and the council had not been able to find a replacement, at least not one that could be trusted. Ms. Cole, had also been teaching math at the time she was away since the normal math teacher, Mr. LeLi, had not recovered from the heart attack which had taken him entirely by surprise a week prior to Ms. Cole's 'accident'.
Kie now became aware of the presence of a slim female beside him. Her hand was held out around 5 inches away from his face. A silver ring with worn out engravings sported the ring finger on her right hand, which was cupped slowly, expecting to receive something from him. Tennyo.
"Can I help you?" Kie asked, mischievously, also rather relieved that she would make the first move, as usual. It stated that nothing had changed and that the ally ship still remained.
"I believe you have my pencil." A smirk formed on the right side of her crimson lips. Kie brought his hand to his eye level. There, still captured in his firm grip was the wooden stick that she required of him now. "You should be more careful with this sort of object. It could hurt someone". His silent threat was there but not so serious any more. Both of them sensed the tension in the room. Mr. Sayake was starting to find it hard to ignore the not so disguised conversation that was taking place at the back of the room.
"Actually the end is rather blunt, so I'd be quite surprised if it caused any real damage." Her smile was sweet, so falsely sweet. "Now if you don't mind, I believe I'm just starting to understand what Cosine squared theta added to sine squared theta is equal to." She continued.
"That would be one whole." He said is smoothly with a smile equally as false as hers. He handed her the pencil, but paused a while before letting, as if considering if he should really let her have the writing utensil. She swiftly but with a tight grip, peeled his hand off the side of her pencil and at the same time, slipped a small piece of paper between his fingers.
"Thank you" Her voice mocked him. "No problem" was a quick reply, very different from the tone that he had used throughout the conversation. It was abrupt and the farthest thing from courteous. She made an over dramatic face of mockery, then with a dramatic sweep sat again upon her seat.
The paper now had its own aura and cooled his fingers. After the class he wasted no time in finding out its contents.
12:30. gym 18. Tomorrow
Under password "ma ni awanai" (A/N: HAHA...Priscilla)
gomen
Kie, at first confused, now understood. He made his way to the head office and sat himself down at one of the booking computers. At an agonizingly slow pace, he booked himself gym 18 at 12:30. beep beep. Damn the computer was annoying.
Gym 18, the room you requested, is already reserved for the time being. Please type in your password to confirm that you are a participant in the
allotted training time.
Kie hastily type in "Ma ni awanai" while still pondering what in the world the word "gomen" meant. Sounded like "go men" to him but it didn't make any sense. Anyways, it was obviously in a different language and if it had any real importance, he could question her about it tomorrow night. The computer now flashed a new message.
Thank you. Please collect you entrance card from the slot above.
A plastic card, very much like a normal credit card came into view from a slit (A/N: yeah I know another slot...) above the computer. Kie pocketed this and proceeded to his room, ignoring the fact that his next class had was due to start in less than 5 minutes.
Back at his room he took out a large sheet of paper and spread it out on the desk. From his jacket, he produced a pencil (A/N: yeah...I know... this fic is all about pencils, slots, and drawers) and added more rooms and halls to the developing map. He corrected a few labels occasionally inputting how much energy it would take to bring down certain objects. (E.g. The wall on the south side of the building.)

Tennyo sat in class wondering if he'd show up tomorrow. She had decided to be a bit more creative in her message this time and still felt quite surprised that she had been so bold as to write that message. She shook her head shamefully. 'I'm acting just as bad as a girl with an infatuation.' she laughed at herself inwardly. But perhaps that's exactly what she was. A silly girl with an infatuation.
She'd never thought of herself that way. Her body did not show signs of it. There was no blush rising to her cheeks as her lips mouthed his name and no rapid jumps were made by her heart as she remembered his rescue. But there was no doubt it was infatuation.
~*~
Kie slid the card into the slot and waited for the door to the gym open. The numbers 18 were embossed on the front of the heavy gym doors. His gym bag swayed and hit the side of the door lightly as he walked in. Tennyo was already there waiting. A dark grey tracksuit was the closest thing she could find to black and so that was what she wore presently.
Kie laughed silently at the sight of her in dark grey and reached into his gym bag. He brought out a one piece tight black leather suit; perfectly stretchable but hugged every part of the body that is. He tossed it to her now with a pleasant "I think you'll feel better in that". She looked at it in surprise. She had seen it in a shop but stopped herself from buying it during their first few weeks after the train incident. She looked at him and softly asked. "How'd you get this?"
"It's called money" he answered, knowing fully well that that was not the answer she required of him. She repeated the question in her gaze, unperturbed by his answer. "I mean how did you sneak it in? They took everything away from me when I got here" the words escaped her lips. He gave her a cocky smile. "Do you really want to know?"
She caught the implication and laughed it off. "Maybe not" was her reply. He did not take as long as her: "Then we have a lot to do".
