'Where in the hell are they?' I thought impatiently to myself. I was laying on the couch with my hat over my eyes in the penthouse of the hotel we're staying at. On the coffee table in front of me was the paper work so we can compete in the Vale festival tournament. I finally got it all wrote out and now it just need everyone's signature and thumb print. While I was waiting for Jen and the brothers to get here, I was still having trouble wrapping head around me being a leader of a team. Both William, my parents, and even my team keep saying I'll lead to victory. Robert was also saying that because of Jenny sake. I have to say wow to that for the fact that everyone have so much faith in me. More so to them.

Jenny Speedwagon, the daughter of Robert Speedwagon and heiress of the Speedwagon foundation. But only on PAPER. You see, Jen was adopted at a young age. Jen was stealing anything and everything to keep herself from starving. She was even using a small hammer to defend herself from others. One day she pickpocketed Robert's wallet while walking around a mall. A week later he got a bill from the hospital and found out the Jenny caught something life threating. Instead of take his wallet back and leave her be, He came back everyday to visit her for a month straight. By the end of that month, she was to be released the there care. But do to her being homeless and a thief, they had no choices to take her to the cops. With that, Robert signed the adoption papers in a heart beat and she became Jenny Speedwagon and is proud of it to this day. Me and the brothers met her on are way home from school when some dog tried to bite her. And we been seeing her after that.

Oryan Zeppeli, my best friend and rival. When he and his little brother came over to learn the Hamon I thought he was some rich punk with issues. To say the least, I hated his guts. We were going at all the time ether in school or at home. But all of that changed when they came to stay a few days over because of there granddad had to take care of some business at some school. One night I challenged him to a dual to show who is the better fighter. In the end we was all beaten up and laying on are backs looking at the stars. He told me that his own father died and why he wanted to learn the Hamon to protect his little brother. Its then that he show me that he was the better man and we've been friends ever since We've always been trying to one up each other like in the past, but its a whole lot friendlier.

Owl Zeppeli, the youngest and most energetic of us four. Oryan loved his father, Gyro as much as anyone can. But his death hit Owl the hardest. Before we were friends, Owl kept his mouth shut and avoided me the common cold. But after we began to know each other is when I seen the real Owl. He told me about how his mastering Gyro's own fighting style of the Hamon 'The spin' and wanting to be a racer like him. As we got older, Owl can always be seen by us or in the garage working on Gyro's bike, Valkyrie. That is, if he isn't getting into trouble. But all and all, Owl is a nice guy and always willing to help any of us out.

And that leaves me. Jonah Joestar, The oldest (by one year) and leader of some team with no name. I guess that I had a good childhood. My dad was a great hunter thanks to the Hamon but turned to a career real in estate when I was born while my mom is a school doctor for signals academy. I've never went to Signals or anything like that because my old man thinks its best that I learn to use power here rather then a far away school. And besides, from what I understand that only a select group can use it. Still, I was always interested about the huntsmen programs and wanted to attend at least one of them.

I tried to think about strategies for the fights or any other thing. But the same thing always came back. Velvet Scarlatina. I felt weird, giving her my hotel key and the number. So far I haven't heard from her in a while now. Maybe she thought I was some thug after the beating I gave those two. Maybe I should go and see her. I nearly slapped myself, I would look like some stalker then. Then how 'bout I call her? That might work... If I knew her number that is. For the love of... I needed to stop. I was here for a fight not a girl! Not a girl...

I heard the door swung open and slammed shut that nearly made me fall off the couch and lose my hat. I moved it away my eyes only to see the Zeppeli brothers. Oryan standing tall with a passed out Owl on his shoulders. "Chocked out or flower pot?" Flower pot" Oryan said with a flat tone. I let out a sigh and sat back on a couch while Oryan took Owl up stairs to a bed room above. Few seconds later my friend was in the walk in kitchen and was beginning to boil some water. "What did he did this time?" I yelled at him from my couch. "He nearly used a overdrive on some girl he picked a fight with." Well he haves a weird way with the ladies. Oryan came back to the living room and sat on one of the chairs next to me with a cup of tea that he placed on the coffee table. What's with him a tea is still beyond me. "And you smashed in the face with a flower pot. My such a wonderful brother you are." I said in a amazed voice. "You know how is Jonah." He said again flat and took a sip of his tea. We sat there for a full awkward minuet without talking. "What's his name?" I was shocked by the sudden question and nearly fell out again. "Come again, pal?" I stammered out. "I know that face jojo." He started "whoever it is on your mind. Now I'll ask again, what's his name?" Damn he's good. I sat upright on the couch and looked at his cup on the table and took a deep breath before beginning.

"Velvet Scarlatina" I told him. "That sounds like-" "A girl? You'll be right" I cut him off. Oryan took sip before saying "Now who is this 'Velvet' girl?" He kept asking on. "Some rabbit faunus girl I helped before you guys came." Oryan's eyes became slightly larger when I told him that part. "You don't mean you..." "Check the hospital for them." I told him flatly. "jojo you know that-" "I know I wasn't suppose use it like that damn it!" I cut him off once again "But When I seen her man she was..." I stopped there, struggling on what to say about her. "She was what?" My buddy picked on. What can I say about her? I was about to flip that table over and call it a day. But one thing popped in to my head and I knew he will understand. "Beautiful" is what muster out. Oryan closed his eyes after finished his tea and placing it on the table. "You always had a thing for the damsel in distresses jojo" he said that and ended with a small laugh.

We sat there for another full minuet. I got another surprise when Owl from the second story fell and landed next to me on the couch with a smile on his face and grabbed the papers on the coffee table. "Nyo ho ho~ So this is it then jojo?" Owl said with that trade mark laugh of his. Both me Ryan was confused by his lack of any emotion towards his brother for hitting in the face. Perhaps he hit him TOO hard. Owl was reading the papers one at a time quickly until his smile was gone and he looked at me. "You did read this, right Jonah?" I looked at him with a straight face "Just the part that looked important, why?" Both brothers looked at me with that you give a dumbass. "It says here," Owl gave me the document and pointed at one line "that we had to stay at the school for at least a week to be qualified to enter ANYTHING!" He said that last part yelling at me. "I see no problem going to school here little Owl." All three of us turned to see the last of us had came through the door.

"Yo Jen!" I said as she dragged her feet to the last seat in the living room. She may have that smile on, but I can tell she was worn out for some reason or another. "And what happened to you?" Oryan said with a little concern in his voice that I seemed to picked up. The young Speedwagon slumped on the chair with a soft thud and a small tear in her eye. I wasn't thinking again," she sniffed "I ran here instead of call a cab or anything" Such was Jenny Speedwagon. She had a problem of forgetting stuff like this. "But Jeeeennnn" Owl wined "We had to go to class again!" He pleaded to her. Jen picked up the paper and gave it a look over and placed it down "Like I said before, I see now problem going to school" Even after walking about ten miles here Jenny still can be optimistic. Owl looked to his big brother for any support for him. But was turned down as he said "Quit you belly aching Owl, Its not like regular school." Owl shot a weird look at him. "Unlike are own school Owl, when they hit you and you hit back. YOU don't get in any trouble whatsoever." This seemed to brighten his mood a bit more when he heard this. "Well that sounds a lot more better then at home" he said while rubbing his chin as if he was deep in thought. He grabbed the pen and the ink for his thumb print "OK, you got me. I'll sign up" "That's the spirit little brother" Oryan told him.

Everyone then to signed up on the papers while I was getting off this couch and get ready to give them to whoever at the school. I wanted to mail them over but with all this festive stuff going on I was afraid that it will be too late. I said bye to everyone and made my way to beacon by cab. I looked out its window and saw all whats happening. Families and others walking from shop to shop and looking into the windows and moving on to wherever. Its kind of nerve raking to see all this. Well this is my first time in a big city so I expected that much from it. The cab stopped at the gates and I paid the man and he went on his way.

After what felt like a half a hour looking for a office of any kind but still nothing. I needed a map or something to help me get out at least. I can tell that this is a great building for sure. Halls are all clean with no dust (the regular kind) to be found. I took a peak of the classes to see what there like only to see it looked like some kind of stage with a chalk board. I beginning to see why dad didn't wanted for me to come. It must cost a good sum to get in here. While dad and mom make good money and all but not THAT good to get me to attend.

Suddenly a bell went of that the whole school can hear and next thing I know, everyone was pouring out of class and I was caught in the middle of it. I maybe a six foot five inch guy but it nearly knocked me off my feet. But I stand firm and they began to thin out enough to move. I still needed to muscle my way through them and nearly knocked a few down while doing so. I turned down the hall and was half way down it until someone was opening a door and it ended up smacking me in the face, sending me down with a small cut on my nose. "Oh no!" said someone feminine above me. I got up and see who just hit me.

And it was her.

Velvet just stood there with a worried and shock expression. As if on queue, everyone was gone, leaving me and her in the hall alone. "I-I-I'm so sorry!" she said franticly. I put on a small but nice smile and say "It ok Mrs. Scarlatina." I ended it while brushing myself off. She still looked worried about what she had done. "But your nose..." She trailed off and reached into her purse digging around and pulled out a small Band-Aid. "Thanks" I told her and she timidly nodded. "Uh... Why are you here?" I reached into my vest pocket on the inside and pulled out are paper work. "Getting signed up of curse." I said to the rabbet. "But uh... I got lost and can't find a office or anything." I told Velvet with a bit of red on my cheeks. Her worried look began to slowly change into a small smile with a laugh that was kind of cute. "Maybe I can help? I was on my way there now." "That will be really good right now." I said and began to follow next to her. "So, where is your team?" I asked her. She looked to the ground slightly and that seemed sadden by this. "I... Don't have one. I'm a transfer student and never gotten one... Or didn't want..." I felt bad for bringing that up so I said "If I had the power, I can put you on my team." I told her. Her ears perked up from that "Thank you for that. And I'm sorry if I didn't call you or anything. I was scared that-" "I told you that its ok." I cut her off. "You just met me and giving you that just made you uneasy. I should be the one saying sorry here, not you." I told Velvet. She was silent for the rest of the way.

We're standing in front of the offices now and we both walked in. she went into another room While I talked some older women with short blond hair. In the end I gave her the papers just in time to see velvet walking out the other room. We both met outside the hall and she turned and faced me. I put one of my hands behind my head and told her "Thanks a lot for saving from this maze of hallways" She gave out that small and cute laugh again. "It nothing to thank me for Mr. Joestar" Velvet said to me. "But I still feel that I need to make this up for you somehow..." She must still feeling bad about what happen earlier. And a idea popped into my head. "Well," I began as I put my hand on my chin like I was thinking of something "Do you know that little Italian restraint a few blocks over here." She nodded her head yes. I smiled once again and said "Nice, tomorrow afternoon I am headed over there for lunch and I thought you might want to come. Well?" I asked Velvet looked at me with a shocked eyes. "M-M-ME?! I uhhhh... Yes?" She answered me in a small voice "Good!" I clapped my hands "I'll see you there around Two then?" She nodded her head once more. "I'll see you there then, bye." I waved behind me. Leaving a vary red faced Velvet along the way. And also seeing another girl with a red hood spying on us. I turned to her and gave her a stern look. "You have a problem with the Faunus?" I asked her. She moved her head no. I smile again and said "good" And was on my way back.

Now what do I wear for tomorrow?
