After the events that just took place, Jae-Hong was currently in the dorm building. He was concentrated on the paper on front of him that told him which room was his, room 302. Kim looked at the door numbers to see if he was getting closer, '299… 300… 301…' Jae Hong smiled when he reached 302. Looking down, he dug into his pocket to find the key that he was assigned. After a few seconds of voyaging, he grabbed it, unlocked the door and made his way into the room.

The place was beautiful, view was nice, furniture and floor was clean, and they even had a nice sized TV. Jae-Hong breathed in the air, this was going to be exciting, he was going to be living here in quiet... or so he had thought.

"Hey you!" A voice called out in Korean, coming from the door. Jae-Hong frowned inside, 'So much for quiet…' He thought as he turned around to see the owner of the voice. It was that red headed guy who was arguing with that other guy from before.

Jae-Hong turned around, "I take your one of my roommates eh?" He began, trying to start up a conversation. Kim placed his hands in his pockets, sizing up Hwoarang. Hwoarang was wearing a black leather jacket, black shirt, and blue jeans with his goggles strapped on his forehead.

Hwoarang was too busy digging his ear with closed eyes to look at Jae-Hong, "Yeah, the name's Hwoarang. Yours?" He asked, opening his eyes in a dull fashion.

Kim began to think he could get along with Hwoarang, "I'm Kim Jae-Hong, a pleasure to meet you." He then noticed Hwoarang had a guitar case strapped on his back and an athletic bag, "So you play instruments and sports?" Kim asked, curious.

Hwoarang looked at his luggage, "Yeah, I play guitar a little. But Taekwondo is still on top." He answered, placing his bags near his dorm room. Suddenly, Hwoarang jerked up. "Wait a minute, you were that guy that was about to fight Craig!" He realized, giving Kim a strange grin, "You were lucky King stopped him though, nothing worse than getting beaten up on your first day."

When Jae-Hong heard the words Taekwondo, a smile formed on his face. The thought of challenging him to see if Hwoarang's Taekwondo could defeat his Taekyon raced through his head. This racing stopped when he brought up Marduk, "Believe me, he wouldn't have beaten me up." Kim muttered as he played the fight in his head and watched himself kick Craig's legs out of use and knocking him out with a high kick.

Hwoarang raised his eyebrow, "Why, you practice Taekwondo as well?" Hwoarang asked, beginning to wonder who would win out of him and Kim. But before Kim could answer, he heard someone else come through the door.

"Oh great..." A voice balked, Hwoarang grimaced at the sound of the voice.

"Kazama!" Hwoarang spat at their new guest. Kim noticed that this was the guy that Hwoarang was talking to earlier, and he also noticed he was Japanese. Despite Kazama's weird hairstyle, Jae-Hong believed that he would get along with him due to his quiet personality.

As Hwoarang bickered with Jin, Kim smiled when he saw the next guy come in his room. "Hey Jae-Hong!" the one and only King called out, making his way towards Kim. "Hey," Kim said in English, now remembering that his English was poor.

Later on, Kim and his roommates settled in and went about their business. Jae-Hong was on his computer typing up a story to post on Fanfiction net, Hwoarang was in his room listening to his music, King was napping, and Jin was in the living room reading a book. Jae-Hong decided that he had reached a good stopping point and saved his story. He then rose, stretched and decided to get something to drink.

Walking through the dorm room, Kim noticed Jin reading and remembered that they hadn't introduced themselves yet. Kim got a Sprite out of the refrigerator and sat in front of Jin, getting his attention. "Can I help you?" Jin asked, taking his eyes away from the book and placing them on Kim.

"It's just that I never introduced myself, my name's Kim Jae-Hong. What's yours?" Jae-Hong asked, actually surprisingly Jin a little by his attitude. Jin was expecting Kim to be like another Hwoarang since he saw them talking. But now he was starting to think different of Jae-Hong.

"I'm Kazama Jin, pleased to meet you." Jin replied, looking at the window and noticing how late it was. "So, I guess I'll see you tomorrow then." Jin said, not really good at starting conversations. Jae-Hong understood this and smiled, "Alright then, I'll see you in the morning. I'll cook breakfast." Jae-Hong said as he got up and headed into his room, taking his soda with him.

Jin nodded, "See you tomorrow." He answered, for a second you could have sworn he smiled.
