Lucifer and Satan left the packed school bus stopping in front of an insanely huge but beautiful building. A building looking old, with copper red walls and a black roof. It looked somewhat like a simple fortress. Said building was Starfell Academy, the greatest middle- and highschool in town. It was towering above the school's yard, majestic and steadfast, and cast a shadow over the vast grass fields and trees. "Remember what I said", Lucifer implored. "Don't call me by name here... We have to be careful.", "Ah-huh." Satan casually wore his school bag on one shoulder. "Why are we here again? Because of a dream you had?", "A vision, not just a dream", he replied and narrowed his eyes. "I know something will happen this month... and we're better off being in the center of the gossip factory in that case. Let's go."Satan grumbled. His motivation to go to school was below zero, but he just followed his brother because he knew there was no way he would have any other choice. They entered through the front entrance of the school, landing in a huge hall. It was filled with lockers. On the opposite wall was a door leading to the school's garden. On it, there was a sign saying "entrance only for high schoolers". Yes, this school was truly impressive. "Uhm... hello..." A shy girl with brown, short hair stopped next to them and cleared her throat. "C-Can... I help you? You look like you're new..." The school had distinguishable school uniforms, and because they weren't wearing any just yet, this assumption was easy to make. Lucifer turned towards her. "Hello. Yes, we need to go to the secretary's office."The girl nodded and pointed to a hallway on the right. "It's the second room, next to the teachers' office.", "Thank you." He smiled at her and then went into the direction. Satan followed him, nibbling on a cookie. Before Lucifer knocked, he gave him a thrust with his elbow. "Stop eating.", "...Mpff!" Satan almost choked on his bite, grumbled and put the pack away. Lucifer knocked. "Yes?" a female voice replied. Lucifer opened the door and the two entered. "Hello. We're the new transfer students.", "Names?", "Kaito and Raiden Murakami."The woman smiled and looked through the paperworks on her desk. "Ah, yes. Twins?", "N-yeah.", "Brilliant." She smiled. "I'm Mrs. Ainsworth. So... Let's see... You will both be attending the same class, 13-B. Here are your timetables and your locker keys." She put both on her desk. "Do you have all the school books already?", "No.", "You can lend some from the school's library then. It's the seperate building on the school yard opposite the cafeteria.", "I understand.", "Miss Aston will gladly help you out. The thirteenth grade's classrooms are on the fifth floor on the right. We already put your school uniforms in your lockers for you.", "That's generous. Thank you." Lucifer smiled. The secretary waved off. "No big deal. But I'm curious, why change schools in the middle of the graduation year? Does it have a particular reason?", "Our parents moved just recently", Lucifer explained like it was the most normal thing in the world. He hated to lie, but in this case, he had to. "Getting to our old school would require us to travel across the entire city. So we decided it would be easier to transfer here for the remainder of the year.","I understand. I hope you'll have a nice time here." She smiled. Lucifer took his time table and locker key. "Have a nice day", he wished politely before leaving. Satan followed him. They first decided to get a set of books from the library. The librarian was a similarly friendly woman who wrote down their names and the books they loaned, and even gave them some candy. They stored the books they didn't need according to their time tables in their lockers. Lucifer had locker 476, while Satan had locker 261. They took out their school uniforms and changed in the toilet on the end of the first floor before they made their way to their class room. Class 13-B was the second classroom on the final floor. Lucifer knocked and entered after they were asked in. The teacher in the room was their class and english teacher, Mr. Jordan. He greeted them. "Good morning, you must be the newbies.", "That's right." Lucifer answered. Satan's eyes darted through the room and stopped as they spotted a familiar face. "...Kenji?", "Oh, hey!" Kenji smiled and waved at him. "Long time no see!" Kenji Sawano was a rather tall dude with messy hair dyed in a bright blue. He and Satan knew each other from a summer job at the Ivory Gardens café, the best milkshake maker in all of Starfell. "What were your names again?" Mr. Jordan asked. "I'm Kaito Murakami", Lucifer answered. "This is my brother, Raiden Murakami.", "Welcome in class 13-B. How about a quick introduction? If you don't mind.", "Certainly not." Lucifer answered. The teacher cleared his throat. "Listen up, everybody! We have the honor to greet our two new transfer students!" Everyone in the class eyed the brothers with interest. Lucifer raised his hand. "Hello. I'm Kaito, 19 years old, recently moved to Faystorm. We lived in an apartment in Oakmoore before. I like sports and quiet places."Satan suppressed a sigh. "I'm Raiden, also 19 years old... and... uh... I like cookies." The class burst out laughing. Even the teacher chuckled. "Alright, alright. You can choose your free seats."Satan almost flew to the empty seat next to Kenji, while Lucifer chose a solo table in the back. "So, now we go to the same class?" Kenji and Satan exchanged highfives. "Seems so. I hope I'm not in for something I'll regret", the black-haired demon replied. Kenji laughed. "No, it's actually half-bad. Nothing utterly terrible, honestly.", "We'll see." Satan put his english book and folder on the table and noticed he forgot his pencil case. Fan-fucking-tastic. "Uhm... I have a problem", he said. "Yeah?", "Mhm. I kinda... lost my pencil case. ...at home.", "That's no biggie. Here, I can lend you a pen." Kenji opened his own pencil case. "Black or blue?", "Uh... black?", "Alright. Here you go." He gave him a pen. "Thank you." Satan laughed embarrassed. "I owe you one...", 
"Yeah, just don't lose it." Kenji winked at him with a sassy smile. "Didn't know you had a brother.", 
"Yeah, well... surprise. Kaito is pretty much... the opposite of me", he said. "Don't expect to see us having much in common. He's boring." 

Something hit the back of his head. "...ow." Satan picked up the rubber and looked up. Lucifer glared at him. "...", 
"Ahahah, I'm just joking!" He laughed nervously and threw back the rubber. Lucifer caught it with one hand and put it back in his pencil case when the school bell rang and the first period started.
