Chap.2: Meetings.

Nazarus had enough on his mind to worry about, meeting with everyone in his dorm. When he finally met up with Esala and the others, a Beast Savior was communicating with them.

"Hi. My name's Dreadlum. I heard you were new here, so I decided to show you guys around." She said.

"What's a Beast Savior doing in a place like this? Seems odd that a wild, uninhabited demon like you shouldn't be here." Aeon asked; after all, it was kinda odd for a Beast Master to be in a smart and educated place like the Evil Academy.

"Seems like you judge people based on their looks alone, Aeon."

"How do you know my name.....?"

"I know everyone...." Dreadlum then walked off into the hallway.

"Wait!" Clementine yelled. "Aren't you going to help us to the dorm? You know....show us

around?"

"I'll let you guys figure that out." Dreadlum replied. "Your little Warlord needs to learn manners." She then walked off, without even looking back.

"Bitch......" Aeon mumbled under his breath.

"It's your fault for saying stupid things..." Nazarus said; might as well let Aeon learn from his mistakes.

"I'll help you, since Dreadlum decided to be a bitch today."

Everyone turned around to see a Freischutz with a map in her hand and various writing utensils in the other.

"My name is Delta. I'm currently mapping out the school, but I can take time out of my busy schedule to help you guys." She said.

Aeon, quick to jump on any situation, quickly interjected, saying," Why the hel-"

Esala quickly put her hand over Aeon's mouth, preventing him from saying whatever disastrous thing he probably was going to say. She then decided to talk for him. "What my boyfriend was trying to say," She tightened her grip on his mouth. "was 'why are you mapping the school?'."

Delta, slightly disturbed by what had just happened, was slow in answering, but finally managed to speak up. "..........My family has been going to the Evil Academy for a long time--about 50 generations-- and have mapped out the entire academy every year we were there, constantly updating it to the things added and taken away every year. I obviously, am going to maintain this tradition, but things seem to have changed little, so I could help you."

"Well, thanks."

Delta then walked everybody over to the dorm. As they walked, Esala constantly was bugging Nazarus about his past.

"For god's sake, Nazarus, you've angsting about your past about all the time. Really, things would be so much better if you told someone about it. It really could take a load off." She had constantly droned in his ear.

"For the love of all that is holy, Esala, I don't feel like talking about it!" Nazarus yelled back.

"Fine, be a sad-face....."

"Let's just get to the dorm, k'?"

When they had finally reached the dorm, two thiefs--a Trickster and a Master Thief, to beComments exact-- where the only one's there.

The Trickster was the first to speak. "Hey, look, Goemon, It seems some new people have come!" It could be told that she were a girl.

The Master thief kept their eyes closed but spoke up in a male voice. "Yes, Halho, it seems that way."

"Kinda hard to believe you when your eyes are closed."

"UH......"

Delta decided to break in, much to Halho and Goemon's dismay. "Well....sorry to interrupt your romantic conversation-"

"Romantic?" Goemon said.

"Don't butt in, Goemon!" Halho quickly replied. "Now, please continue."

Delta gained her composure back together, and continued to speak. "Continuing where I let off, is this dorm Nippon Ichi?"

"You've come to the right place!" Halho replied.

Nazarus looked around, confused. There was almost nobody else there, besides the seven of them. "Where the hell is everybody?"

"They're all dicking around, because it's fiday, and tommorrow will be saturday." Goemon said in a very monotone drone.

"Way are you so unhappy?" Esala asked Goemon.

There was no answer.

"Let's just head inside....."

That was that, and the group of seven walked into dorm Nippon Ichi. Nazarus flipped a light switch, revealing the whole dorm for everyone to see. As one might have expected from the high-class aura the school emanated constantly, the dorms where in top condition.

The floors were made out the finest carpet one could buy, and tinted black for a dash of beautiful class. The walls, like always, were wood finish (REAL wood, mind you), and the glass windows were split into four quadrants, each separated by ornate designs.

"Well, this certainly oozes class. I wouldn't mind living here." Aeon said as he observed the dorm.

"Good, 'cause you'll be living here." Clementine replied.

"Speaking about getting used to the dorm, we haven't gotten used to each other." Nazarus commented. "We should probably get acquainted....."

"Yeah, you're probably right...."

While everyone talke dabout each other, Nazarus walked to the windows and closed the blinds. Even though it was getting dark, he ,for some reason, didn't like the blinds open. He then leaned on the windows, and simply drifted on to a trance...

Some half-an hour later, Clementine spoke to him. "Nazarus.....?"

Nazarus was shot awake by this comment and quickly yelled to no one in particular," Oh god, this can't be.....don't do this, dad!!!!" He then fell on the ground, banging his fist into the ground and crying. "Dad....how could you do this to her, you piece of shit!? HOW!?!?! AHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!! WHY DID YOU RAPE AND KILL MOM!!!???!?!"

He then panted heavily, and looked up to see the others just flat-out stunned at what he said. "My past....is catching up to....me....in a way..... I...don't.....want it to.....dammit...."

"What was that all about!?" Clementine asked, completely stunned at what he had said.

"My past. MY dad....he....he....I can't say it.....I watched the whole thing....." Nazarus then fainted on the ground.

"NAZARUS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

Several hours later, Nazarus awoke to see he wasn't inside the dorm anymore. He seemed to be in some sort of hospital, and his suspicion was correct when he saw a Saint walk in with the rest of dorm Nippon Ichi (Dreadlum was there as well).

"Where am I?" Was the first thing to come out of Nazarus' mouth.

"You're at the school hospital, Nazarus." The Saint replied. I am Nurse Matildo Winguard."

"What happened...?"

"You fainted. Rest assured, you gave everyone quite a big scare when you yelled like that, and an gave an even bigger scare when you fainted."

"Am I going to be okay?"

"You're awake, right?"

"Yes....I should get going to my dorm now...."

Nazarus tried to get up, but some odd force prevented him from getting up. Nurse Matildo explained that a magical barrier was placed on him to prevent him from getting up.

"Why? I'm fine!"

"You may say you're fine, Nazarus, but you should get some rest."

"Okay..." Nazarus said begrudgingly.

Later in the night, Nazarus awoke to some sort of noise outside.

"Probably my imagination..."

However, the noise seemed too real to be true. If only the magical barrier was gone.... He managed to hear what they were saying anyway.

He heard two voices. He first one was a guy. "Okay, you know what to do, right?"

The second was a girl. "Yeah.

"I'm paying you a lot of money to ice this particular person."

"I got it. Guy won't know what hit him."

"See yah'."

"By."

Nazarus ignored them for a little while, but soon realized: "ice" was slang to kill.

The guy told the girl to "ice" somebody.

The guy told the girl to assassinate somebody.
