Disclaimer (Finally learned to put those.): I do not own any of the Black Blood Brothers characters. The only characters I own are Sydney, Del, Heather, Camilla, Anna, Alex, and Autumn.

Mimiko's POV

We have now officially sat on our buts on these hard as hell benches for over twenty-minutes. TWENTY-MINUTES! How long are we supposed to wait for those kids? This is taking way too long. And there's still kids pushing and shoving to get out that tiny as heck door. This school is insane! "Geez. It looks like there about to kill each other over there. I swear I could see a kid trying to get back in for safety. How stupid." I glanced over to my side to see most everyone else sitting and staring off into space directly in front of us. It's been so quiet out here that I tried to liven up the mood. I'm surprised that Kotaro isn't talking like crazy. I wonder what he's—huh! What the? Kotaro. Kotaro is mimicking his Jiro. He is staring intensely at whatever Jiro's looking at. He looks like he's about to fall off the bench. Wow. I must really suck at this conversation thing. Aw, come on.

"What the Hell! How crowded do those hallways have to be for the teachers to notice that they need more freckin' doors on this place? This really is starting to get annoying going through that every day. I mean. I've got enough to deal with when it comes to volleyball. I don't need this too!" I could hear a girl's very tense and very loud voice say. "Oh, shut up. Quit complaining about all of your stupid volleyball problems when we've got other problems of more importance that that stupid trail of how many times you can hit a ball before it hits your face." Another voice chimed in. This voice sounded much more excited than the other voice. Almost kind of anxious. "Will you two just shut up already! We need to find those people! It's rude to keep them waiting like this after all. They are actors." Another person claimed. She sounded more, defiant. Kind of like she sounds as if she feels a responsibility to act so calm. I doubt that's how she usually acts though.

Then again, I would act that way too if I was going to meet with an actor. I may still be the actor of myself from an anime that people call Black Blood Brothers, which is in fact the story of my life, but I would feel the obligation to be….wait…actor…Black Blood Brothers…meet….no way…it can't be…they're talking about….us.

I face palmed my forehead feeling like an idiot. The only students left were seven teens who sat on the bench on the opposite side of the door from us. By then a teacher exited the building and locked the doors. She then walked over to us. "Um…are you people waiting for a student or something? All of the students have already left the building." I looked up to see the teacher standing ahead of me. "No were fine. We were actually waiting for a group of students here. Maybe they left and we didn't notice. If they did then we can just call our friend to pick us up." The teacher gave me a look of disbelief."Okay I guess. Well I hope you get home safely. Bye." "Bye miss." The teacher that was talking to us went over to the kids.

She stood in front of no one in particular."Now kids, you know your parents will be worried sick if you don't get home soon. You need to be on your way. We don't want another fiasco like last time. Right, Autumn?" Then the girl, who I presumed to be Autumn, raised her head and glared towards the teacher. Soon that glare became a sweet smile."Well we were actually waiting for someone. They are supposed to meet us here, but they haven't shown up yet. We didn't want them to become confused, so we decided to stay here to wait."The teacher gave her that same confused look she showed me. "I guess that's alright then. *sigh* Well I hope that you kids find who you're looking for. But," She then leaned in front of a different girl. "If I hear about anyone getting hurt like last time and find out it's your fault that the person is hurt, I will not be so lenient like last time. Alright, Dell?" The girl then gave an almost whining look to the teacher. "But, I told you it wasn't me! I had nothing to do with that! I just found that kid sitting there and thought they were passed out, so I went to wake them up by giving them a little kick. You just came in at the wrong time. "The girl than huffed and looked away from the teacher."Why does everyone always blame me?"She said in a hushed tone.

"Well I'm off." The teacher turned away and started to walk to a parked car. "Don't stay out too late kids!" She then drove off and left the rest of us sitting.

A few more minutes of pure silence passed. Then it dawned on me. We came here to meet seven High School kids. The kids are waiting to meet with actors. I have officially discovered how much of an idiot I can be. I stood up and started to walk in front of our group, while facing the kids.

"Um, excuse me!" I shouted. I was only trying to get their attention."You're excused!" Shouted a boy, which looked to be the only boy, from the group. Okay, so that kind of ticked me off. No big deal though. I can handle this. I took a deep breath and faced the children once again. I then smile a half fake smile."By any chance are you people waiting for a group of seven different actors/actresses?" After the kids stopped chuckling at the joke the boy made, they all started to just glance at each other. "Yeah."Said a girl dressed in a nice blue top and jeans."Well, we're waiting for a group of seven people who go to this school. Are you by any chance those people?" I noticed two of the kids whispering with each other. That same 'blue' girl stood. "I bet. So I'm guessing you're those actors we have to take care of." She said the last part with a large grin. "Yep." I said with a large grin in return. "Well now that we have that figured out, who would like to do introductions?" The boy from that group stood this time while the girl sat down shyly. "Oh! Oh! I'll do it!" He shouted jumping and raising his hand high. "Okay, and I guess that I'll do mine for my group." I glanced at my group. The only person who seems excited is Kotaro. Jiro is just smiling. Kain is still just staring off into space, with Sei doing the same as him. Cassa just has a smirk on her face. Zelman, however he found it, is sitting there drinking a cola. I guess enthusiasm dies with age. I mean, most of them are at least one hundred years old. Except for Kotaro and I that is.

The boy from the other group then came running to my side. "Ready?" He asked me. I then shock off my groups attitudes and began.

Autumn's POV

The girl standing beside Alex is obviously Mimiko. After watching the credits enough times, I finally figured out that all the actors have the same names as their characters. Maybe that's because they just think it's easier not having to learn new names. It's actually pretty interesting. Other than that, how is Alex going to introduce himself? His real name is Alex but in school he goes by Charles. I wonder if he'll say Charles is his name, or Alex. Oh well. The fact that I'm actually wondering is just a reminder to me that I have finally entered the no man's land marked boredom. Man this is so pitiful. I jerk my head down in shame.

I glance back up to see Alex and Mimiko talking about something. I wonder what. Doesn't matter anyways. At that moment I feel something sharp hit the top of my head."Ow!"I yelped. I felt the top of my head with my hand, than started to look on the ground beside the end of the bench to find what hit me. I bend down and pick up some piece of crushed metal.

It was obviously a coke can.

I glanced at the group of actors and saw who threw it. The only person who could have hit me instead of the ground had to be someone on the end of the opposite benches. The guy I saw was wearing a black/blue beanie and what looked almost like a white and blue track suit. I could see red hair trying to escape the hat. His eyes are the color crimson. Wait! Hold the phone! Crimson! Who has crimson eyes? That's impossible. Then again, it must be contacts. A lot of people wear them to look cool. My first choice would be crimson too. Crimson red, which is basically the color of blood, is my favorite color. 'Okay. Snap out of it Autumn. This is the same guy who threw the coke can at your head. Focus on that. But don't forget that he's an actor. You have to be polite.'

After telling myself to ignore the looks and focus on everything else, I got up and went to the trash can that sat towards the back of him. He looked up at me as I threw the coke in the trash. "What did you do that for?" Yep, that did it. His voice sounded so great. God, I hate this. I tried not to look at him so I would keep my focus on everything else like I told myself to. "Well the trash can is sitting right beside you. The can you threw hit me in the head so I picked it up and brought it over here." I felt embarrassed. Looking away is so not helping. "I didn't notice that there was a trash can right here. Sorry about that." Why do I have this strange feeling that he is only saying that while not caring? I completely forget what I told myself about not looking at him. "No, it's fine. It's not like it hurt or anything." I then smile a complete smile while feeling like a complete idiot. Why did I turn and look at him? He sat with his legs crossed at his arms draped over the back of the bench. His head was slightly tilted back so that he could see me. His eyes though. It felt like they were looking right through me. I also noticed something else about his eyes. If you could only see his eyes, then you would think he was a girl. His eye lashes are so long that it looks like he put on mascara. I then had the funny picture of him putting on mascara in front of a mirror like a bunch of preps at our school. I chuckled a small bit. He looked at me kind of confused. "Sorry about that."I said."Now if you'll excuse me." I said while turning around. I then walked back to take my place at the end of my groups two benches.

I felt like I was in Heaven.

Dell's POV

I glanced over as Autumn started walking towards Zelman. At least I think that's him. Well this should be interesting. I watched as Autumn started to actually talk to him. I bet she's happy. But she's not looking- oh, wait. Now she is. For a minute there I thought she wasn't even going to look at him. How pitiful that would have been. How they're talking to each other, Zelman looks so relaxed, but Autumn looks so tense. Geez. Is this really the same girl who smacked a guy twice with her sketch book, and also stood up to some fat guy picking on Alex who was almost a head taller than her? I'm not sure I can watch anymore of this.

I look at my feet. 'Volleyball is easy compared to this.'

Beside me I can hear someone sit down. I look over my shoulder and see Autumn. She looks like she's in Heaven. And I'm probably right about that too. Although, I bet she hasn't forgot the fact that he hit her with a coke can. Accidently or not.

In a split second, her expression changed. What did I tell you? She must have remembered. Now she looks irritated. I start to laugh. "What?" Autumn snaps at me, finally noticing that I've been watching her facial expressions that involve Zelman. "Oh, nothing." I say in a sarcastic tone like usual. "Just a little inside joke. Really, nothing at all." I the smile the smile that freaks Anna out at Autumn."Why do I not believe you?" She asked glaring at me."Aw, don't you trust me?" "Hell no." She gave a quick response. I then started to laugh. Another thing that creeps Anna out. My amazing, and oh so charming, laugh.

I then lose my train of thought as Alex shouts,"It's time to introduce everybody!" I really don't get how he can be so openly cheerful right now. Oh well. Who cares anyways? I lean back into the bench and listen to the introductions. "Okay, so first off I'm going to introduce my group. Of course there is me, I'm Mimiko Katsuragi. I look forward to our stay with you."She then gave a polite bow."Then of course there is Jiro," Jiro than stood and walked beside Mimiko. He gave a polite bow. Though it didn't seem very successful with that umbrella he's holding in the way. "I'm Jiro Mochizuki. It's a pleasure to make your acquaintance. I hope we can get along well." He then turned and sat back at his seat. Wasn't the last name Mochizuki the name that the character Alice couldn't figure out? Also, wasn't the girl Cassandra, the one who played the role of Alice? I wonder why they didn't just find a girl to play her that has the name Alice like the other characters. That's rather odd.

"Also, there is Kotaro," Mimiko continued. I looked up and saw the little boy. He is so adorable. I think he was supposed to be Alice's reincarnation. He has such big blue eyes and the cutest grin. He almost makes me want to think about children. Now about actually having a kid, well let's just say that you will have to do a lot better than that for me to ever think about actually having a child of my own. He smiled real big and tugged on a big teddy that he had a hold of by its paw. "Hi! I'm Kotaro Mochizuki, Jiro's little brother, and I hope we can become really great friends!"He then started to skip back to his seat. I bet Anna loves him. I glance over at her. She looks like she's ready to hug him. That poor kid.

I look back over and before Mimiko could say anything, Cassandra was already beside her. "It's nice to meet you. My name is Cassandra Jill Warlock, and I hope we get along real well."She said with a large smirk on her face. I think her black outfit looks cool, but I don't like her. She seems evil, and I can't let her take my place, now can I? I then started to think of ways to totally destroy her, but I can only think them unfortunately. She then went straight to her seat.

"Okay…now then. Next is Kain." A large man with broad shoulders and a blank expression then walked beside Mimiko, bowed, and went back to take his seat. 'Well isn't he the quite one?' I thought. "Next is Sei."Mimiko said with what looked to be an almost forced smile. A little boy wearing a green Chinese outfit then walked to stand at her side. He looked to be only a few feet tall. "I'm pleased to meet you. I'm Sei and I hope you'll make our stay a pleasant one." He then scuffed back over to his seat. Mimiko then looked like she had gained new hope for the sanity of her group."And last is Zelman."She said. Oh. It's Zelman. I glanced over at Autumn. Looks like she isn't going to forget that coke incident. She looks as tense as ever and like she is swarmed with a black aura.

Zelman stood and walked in front of Mimiko rather than beside her. I wouldn't call him rude. Just a guy with a big ego. "Hello. It's nice to meet you all. I'm Zelman Clock and I expect that from what I've seen so far my stay here will be a pleasant one."He then gave a smirk as he glanced over here. I looked beside me. Autumn blushed from a bit of shock since his smirk was most likely directed at her. She then looked at the ground beside her. I smirked at her and gave a quick and silent laughter. This is going to be great. What would be better is if Zelman ended up staying with her. Now that would be just priceless. And they're already getting along so well. I glance at everyone else from our group. From the facial expressions I see, I'm guessing they noticed too. Looks like we've gained some new entertainment.

Autumn's POV

Did he really just do that? What was that all about? He just smirked at me. And just what does he mean by 'from what I've seen so far?'I swear if he wasn't an actor I would've so loved to just slap him right then and there. You know what? I really hope that he doesn't turn out to have the same personality as his character in the anime. And for what reason does he feel the need to completely make my friends get the wrong idea? I am never going to hear the end of this.

The very second that Zelman sat down Alex shouted, "Now it's our turn!" I don't get how he can be so openly loud in an almost impolite way in front of them. "First we have to introduce, ME!"He said with a great amount of enthusiasm. "I'm Charles! Well at least that's what I go by. My real name is Alex, so you can just call me that!"Again I will say he is over enthused.

Sei's POV

Hm? I wouldn't expect for a male to be so overjoyed that he is meeting new people. His hair really stands out. For black hair anyways. He is clothed in black mostly. His jeans look baggy but at least they aren't sagging like most people's we saw since we got here. He has chains hanging off of the jeans. His top is a a-symmetrical black and white top. I think it is most likely styled after Lewis Caroll's 'Mad Hatter.' I can tolerate it. I actually kind of like it. He wears glasses that have a solid black brim. His eyes are covered by the glasses so it's impossible to tell the color. Well I bet that his eyes match his surprising personality. Is this the child of the great sage's niece? I highly doubt it. I thought she was supposed to be a girl. Well if he is, I think this is one person that I would like to try to get along with.

Cassa's POV

"Next is Camilla." The hyper boy said. How distasteful he is. To think there is someone like him around is revolting. "Hi. I'm Camilla…"Well she's rather shy. I think I like her better than the boy for sure. She has the look of a Kowloon child almost. How intriguing. She has chocolate brown hair and gold eyes. Hm, golden eyes? Most Kowloon children have gold eyes. The turned one have black engulfing them. She wears a blue shirt with some complex design on it, with a pair of bright blue jeans. She looks embarrassed to meet us, but I can sense that her personality around people she trusts is different than around us. Well this should be interesting.

The girl went back to take her seat.

Jiro's POV

"So I guess Dell is next." Then a girl with mid-length reddish brown hair stood and went beside him. "Hi, my names' Dell. Hope we can get along." The girl then smiled a smile that reminded me of Cassa when she's ready to kill someone. How is it a sweet girl like Dell can have such evil eyes?

She is wearing a black and green t-shirt that has a odd design with the logo 'Fire Flight,' on the front, with a pair of black skinny jeans and converse. Her eyes are a ghostly blue. From her laugh I heard earlier I could say that it fits her smile. Though I think that she could be a very nice and lady like girl. She then smirked and sat down.

Kain's POV

"So after Dell is Sydney."I glanced over and a girl with curly brown hair stood and walked over to Alex. She wore a bubble jacket the color purple and slightly dirty blue jeans. Her face was full. Eyes the color of the forest. "Hey everyone. I'm Sydney and I love your show. Let's get along. Kay?" She then went back to her seat and smiled a content smile. She is the only person who mentioned Black Blood Brothers at all. Strange.

Kotaro's POV

"Annas' next!" A girl walked up and smiled really, really big. "Hey! I'm Anna and I am so happy to meet all of you! I hope we can be good friends!" Then she looked at me and said, "Especially you Kotaro, my sweet kid cousin!" Everyone else was definitely not as surprised as me. I didn't know I had a cousin! That's great! And my cousin is really pretty too! She has short black hair and pretty eyes that sparkle! She's wearing a shirt that says 'peace' and white shorts. I think I'm really going to like her!

Mimiko's POV

I stood to the side as the introductions went on. I wonder who's next. "Now for misses 'not as awesome as me,' Heather!" "Hey!"A girl shouted as she stood. She ran up to Alex while holding a book and hit him on the head with the spine."Ow!"He yelped. The girl then turned around to face my group as if nothing happened. "Well I'm Heather and I'm glad I get to meet you."She smiled an innocent smile and went to take her seat. As she was walking away, I could see the sun reflect off of her orange hair. She is kinda short for her age, like me, and has green eyes, as well as chest that looks to be to large for her age as well. At least that's what I think. Other than that she seems like a nice girl. Almost as nice as that Dell girl seems.

Zelman's POV

"Now last but not least is Autumn."I sat up a little once I heard that name. The girl who came over here earlier hadn't been introduced yet, so I guessed that was her name I heard. I was correct. A slim girl with long blonde hair stood up and walked beside the boy, who I didn't even care enough to learn his name, in a very shy and almost a little angry way. "Hi."She said in a soft tone. I noticed when she was over here talking to me that she was soft spoken. Then again, it sort of felt like she was lecturing me. "I'm Autumn Thomason. I'm glad you all could make it here. I hope you had no inconveniences along the way. Please excuse our state for most of the people that were born here do not know how to speak in a correct manner. Also for those that have no morality whatsoever." I noticed that her smile kinda twitched and her attention on that last part was directed toward me.

"Your right." I said loud enough for her to hear. "Some people have absolutely no manners nor morality at all."I smirked at her, closing my eyes feeling accomplished because I succeeded at annoying her. "Of course there are more people than just from Arkansas."She gave a small, nervous, yet angry sounding laugh. "You would know."I say just to make her even more annoyed."Takes one to know one."She says in reply. Okay, so maybe I'm not the sharpest tool in the shed when it comes to insults and comebacks, but it's not my fault she knows a way to insult me no matter what I say to her. I open my eyes and look directly at her, my smirk still across my face. She glares back at me with an even more fake smile.

I just now notice what she's wearing. I was too focused on insulting her. Her hair is down against her back with a small, single braid on the side. She has on ripped neon green tights with a black and red plaid skirt over it and black knee high boots with small belts on them covering her calves. The skirt has two belts around her small waist and one small sewn in pieces of black belts on each of her hips under the two belts. She also has on a black button up top that has three buttons at the top undone. The sleeves go to her elbows and it looks like it's not as scratchy as most button up tops, more likely that it's soft. The issue being that it lets her neck show.

'She's pissing me off enough that I feel like I want to bite her just because I'm so annoyed by her.' Oh. I just realized it. My goal was to annoy her, but instead she annoyed me. Well this is accomplishing nothing. I then sit back and relax a little while I still can. 'This argument of ours is doing no good for me.'

Autumn's POV

Don't tell me I actually just did that. Did I really just become an idiot? First I said my last name, unlike the rest of my friends, and then I had to go and back talk Zelman. But he was making me so mad. I can be so stupid. Then I heard Mimiko say,"Now to figure out who will be staying with who."This cannot be good.

Author's note: Man this chapter was so long! I hope I didn't bore anyone to death. Speaking of, first off will you all start actually leaving me reviews? It's hard for me to know what you think if you don't ever tell me. PMing doesn't count! I also wanted to say that beanie is such a funny word. Hehe. Please keep reading! Thank you all who actually like my story! See you next chapter! =^-^=
