Hey! Sorry for not updating recently but I've been in a sort of predicament. My grandfather had a brain tumor that we found just recently and had surgery on Friday while I was at school. So I just didn't have time for anything between that, my cousins coming and dinner theater. Dear lord that thing is long for the performers. So here's the next chapter and forgive me.
Chapter 4: The Bipolar and Schizophrenic Little Angels
Orihime's POV
"Tatsuki, did you hear we're getting new students?"
"No. How many?"
"Ten!"
"What? Not all in our class, I imagine!"
"No. Only four of them are in our class. Ichigo and Ichimaru Karyushima, Mistique Murceilago-Morningstar and Renji Abari."
"Who are the others then?"
"I dono. We'll have to ask them." She sighs, taking up my hand to give it a squeeze. I smile and squeeze back.
"Alright! Sit down! Sit down!" We exchange a look and scramble into our seats. "Good. Now, we have new students, four of them!" She looks at the door. "Come in!"
They march in to give the normal introductions, a kind of lost puppy look marking the twin's faces. Ichigo and Ichimaru Karyushima: the former with vibrant orange hair, tea brown eyes and pale but not overly so; the latter being an albino with gleaming gold irises. Renji Abari: a redhead and Mistique: a brunette with purple eyes. Renji seems to be an outsider among the others who flock together tighter, the twins even holding the other's hand.
"Yo! Ichi, Maru, twin, you guys in here?" A teen with sapphire eyes, I mean eye, and blond hair walks in the door with another teen: a boy with black hair and acid green eyes.
Mistique scowls at the two of them and growls, "shouldn't you two be in class?"
"We got kicked out, brother," the boy says.
"Verion! Luna! What the hell did you do?"
The girl growls right back, teeth bared in a snarl, "he wouldn't let Verion and I take our medication, bastard!"
"Oh, then that's fine. I'm sorry for yelling at you." He looks back up at Miss Ochi. "May they stay in here? I don't like them being alone."
"That's fine. And what medication are they supposed to take?"
"I'm bipolar," Verion answers, "Luna's a schizophrenic."
"Oh. I didn't… I'm sorry."
"Why?" Luna asks sweetly.
"Because, it was prying and unneeded."
"No it wasn't…" Luna starts.
"-It doesn't…."
"-bother us, cause…"
"-we get away…"
"-with more stuff!" they end together, lacing their pale hands together. The siblings look at each other and giggle loudly, looking as happy as a person could ever be. It's hard to believe they're… different.
"Do you talk like that often?"
"Yes, because…"
"-we love each…"
"-other very much and…"
"-we feel the closest to…"
"-each other when we…"
"-speak synchronically."
I laugh because it's just so cute. "You need to go back to Byakuya now. Okay?" their brother asks.
"Okay…"
