Will he be able to complete his mission before it's too late? Stay tuned to find out! Juuuust kidding; the kids are merely unpacking and getting used to their rooms! Explosions come after they graduate. Enjoy! ;
Kira set his bags down onto the floor, just outside of the door; he turned the silver handle and pushed the wooden down open slowly; the room was fairly large, with two beds and a connecting bathroom on the East most wall. Athrun was the first to step in, quickly claiming the bed beside the bathroom. Kira picked up his bags once more and swung them onto the free bed, the luggage landing on the soft mattress, displacing the blankets and sheets. Kira looked over to Athrun who was already in the process of unzipping and removing his wardrobe, then, Kira looked to the rest of the room; there was one empty drawer and an empty closet.
"I get the closet!" Shouted Kira before his friend had even noticed it. Athrun looked over, slightly confused at what Kira was going on about. "We'll worry abut that later, Kira. Let's go get some lunch before it's all gone. Kira nodded and gave a final look around the room, stepping over to his bedside table. "Hey Athrun!" He called out, tossing his friend a key. "Don't lose it now." And with that, Athrun ran off into the dormitory's hallway, Kira not far behind.
"Hey, watch where you're going!" Shouted a boy with short blue hair as he stumbled backward, his grip loosening on a large box he was holding with both hands. "Oh... Sorry, I wasn't looking where I was going." Kira told the boy, before taking off once more. Shinn simply looked at the brown haired boy, nodded and turned around, making his way back to his dorm room. Peering into the door, he saw Rey neatly pushing his luggage into the corner, and turning around.
"Hey, Shinn. Dearka and Yzak are already on their way to the caf... That's the last of your things, right?" Shinn nodded and kicked the box into the room. Rey soon emerged, turning slightly to lock the door.
"Let's go, then. Don't want to miss out on the eats." Rey took off, forcing Shinn to chase after him. "Rey, wait up!"
"Quit it, you'll break the bed." Said Lunamaria, to her younger sister who was bouncing up and down on the bed. As Meyrin was falling, she stuck her legs out and immediately ceased the bouncing, looking up at her sister. "Sorry..." She uttered. Luna simply rolled her eyes and stood up from her own bed, taking a few steps out of the door; "I'm going to go find Cagali and Lacus. You coming?" Meyrin leapt up from her bed and marched up beside her sister, a wide grin on her face. "Yup." She exclaimed, pulling her older sister out of the room.
"You really don't have to carry all of my bags… Isn't it heavy?" Asked a worried Miriallia, her hands tugging lightly at the hem of her dress as she paced beside her friend Stellar turned over to her and gave a soft smile, speaking in her usual quiet manner; "I really don't mind." As the two arrived to their dormitory, Miriallia popped the door open while Stellar dropped the bags onto the floor, walking back into the hallway once they'd parted her hands. The orange haired girl came out of the room, locking the door with her key and then slipping it into her pocket.
The sound of laughter and shouting reverberated throughout the large cafeteria, the large array of table were set up in rows, leaving narrow passages for students to pass through. At the back of the cafeteria, a large servery had been set up; as the kitchen staff passed out the trays of food to the students, the line slowly began to move, each student getting their turn to select a breakfast. Near the front of the room, Yzak and Dearka had already set themselves up and begun eating. In the corner of his eye, Yzak caught Rey and Shin; waving his right arm, he called them over to the table.
"That line takes forever." Rey said, the tray of food secured in his hands. He took a seat across from Dearka, giving Shinn room to sit.
"Gonna have a seat?" Ask Dearka, looking at the dumbfounded Shinn.
"Uhh… Yeah. I was just looking for someone." He sat down, lifting the piece of toast from his plate. Rey couldn't help but smirk; he turned to Shinn and clasped his hands together.
"Your soul mate?" He said in a mocking feminine tone, bursting into laughter along with Yzak and Dearka. Shinn simply rolled his eyes and continued to eat his meal.
"Yo, Athrun! There are some seats over there" Kira shouted, as he led his friend to the front of the cafeteria, taking a seat beside the same blue haired boy he had bumped into earlier. Athrun sat across from him, looking over to the boy with long silver hair, and nodding his head out as a greeting.
"Hey… You're that guy I bumped into earlier, right? Sorry about that… I was in a hurry. I'm Kira, by the way." He said, extending a hand out toward the boy.
"Shinn Asuka." He replied, shaking his hand with a smile. The rest of the boys took turns introducing themselves, talking about their courses as the meal progressed.
Meanwhile, on the other side of the cafeteria, a single empty table housed only the orange haired- Miriallia and silent Stellar, both of which were more interested in their meals rather than each other. At the front of the lunch line, the Hawke sister, Cagali and Lacus had finally received their meals. Looking around the room, Lunamaria frowned; she stood on her tiptoes in search of a free table, but couldn't spot anything.
"I can't see any free tables…"
"There's one over there." Said Cagali, pointing to the opposite end of the room, to a table with only two girls. Enthusiastically, Meyrin led the way to the table, weaving in and out the mass of other students trying to find a seat. Miriallia looked up, enthralled that some other girls had decided to take a seat beside her and Stellar; with a smile and a wave she introduced herself.
"Hey there. I'm Miriallia."
The four girls smiled, each taking a turn to introduce themselves, finally once they had all given their names, Stellar turned to them, a shy smile spread across her face.
"I'm Stellar"
Miriallia breathed a sigh of relief, at least now she knew a group that was a bit more social.
