Chapter one:
The afternoon classes of Whammy's house are going to start soon.
Mello is bored so he wanders around a little. He pauses to look into the common room.
In there are a group of orphans.
There is the laidback player Ace.
Ace has short emo styled ginger hair, slightly tan skin and muddy water colored eyes. He is wearing a sky blue tank top, dark blue almost black pants and grey sneakers. He's a small amount taller than Mello himself. "So baby. You know you're better looking than I could have imagined." He says to one of the girls he has his arm around. He has been beat by Mello every time a little after the player flirts with Near, who keeps rejecting him anyways, but when asked about it Mello says it's only a coincidence since all he wants is to blow off steam with he found that Ace is a good target.
It is expected from him after all.
The girl on Ace's right is Pearl who has black hair pulled back into a bun, Native American skin since that's who she is, dark brown eyes and is a little taller than Near. She is wearing a mahogany long sleeved V-neck shirt, tightfitting black pants and black ballet flats that have a white bow by the toe area.
The girl on his left is Kaitlin who has the darkly colored skin, black hair put into braids, deep brown eyes and plump lips. She is wearing dark grey pants that are almost black, a magenta t-shirt, black high heels and a netting like flower light jacket that has a black background with the designs being white flowers with pink shadows. She is Matt's height. "Oh Ace you big softie." She giggles.
Leaning against the wall by Ace is two guys and one girl.
The girl is Alexis who has slightly pale skin, slightly narrowed dark blue eyes and blonde hair pulled up into two pigtails that look skinny in a good way. She is wearing an olive green sweater zipped up, a blue plaid skirt that goes to her mid-thigh, knee high ripped styled black socks and dark brown boots that go to a little above her ankles. She is a little smaller than Matt. She is reading a book as usual.
To Alexis's right is a boy named Poppy. He has dark brown hair that is in a pixie style, flawless skin not too pale but not too tan and green eyes. He is wearing a fiery orange t-shirt with almost skinny dark tinted jeans and black with white bottoms runners. He is a small bit taller than Alexis.
To Alexis's left is a boy named Richie. He has a black t-shirt with dark yellow writing that says 'I would cuddle you so hard' and grey sweat pants. He has slightly pale skin, black worn down runners, dirty blonde hair reaching to his shoulders and greenish blue eyes. He is a little taller than the others in the room.
Alexis helps keep the two beside her more under control as they can get annoyingly crazy without someone to put them in their place; as Alexis does hit them with a book in a warning if they start to step out of line. She is quite good at keeping people in line even though she's quite the bookworm.
Which is most likely why the three are often seen together as if Alexis is leading the two around like they are lost puppies.
Mello ignores the group as Ace continues to flirt with the two girls who continue to flirt back as usual for most who he flirts with do. He looks around the rest of the room just as Poppy and Richie say something earning them a warning slap by the book from Alexis as the two probably said something to hint they are about to step out of line. He sees only the group is in the room.
No Near.
He then growls to himself. "Why should I care where he is?!" He then leaves starting to wander again.
Then classes start a little later but Mello is bored since it's review on something he's looked over many times over and over again.
Ace is, go figure, late coming to class as is Kaitlin and Pearl.
Then right in the middle of class the three walk in….. Only there's something different.
Ace doesn't have his arms around Kaitlin and Pearl while the two are following in a line behind him.
"Please take a seat." The big boobed teacher says.
The three silently go to sit down while Ace would have normally commented to hit on the teacher.
Mello raises an eyebrow and kids begin to mummer.
Ace never changes no matter if he gets in trouble or not.
So something is wrong with them if they are acting like that with Ace being the huge give away.
"What the Hell!?" Mello curses to himself as the teacher also takes a moment to be shocked like everyone else.
She then clears her throat and tries to begin class again as she tries to settle them down…. With difficulty for obvious reasons.
Class does begin after a bit of settling down and the teacher continues on with the lesson.
Mello wonders something so he glances to Alexis, Poppy and Richie… Sure enough they seem to be affected as well as Alexis stares off into space and the devious glint to Poppy and Richie's eyes is gone. He starts to turn away when he notices that Near is also noticing something is going on. He slightly growls then turns away. "I will beat you at this Near." He says to himself. "But seriously….. what the Hell is going on around here?"
From there things went downhill…..
