...

When nobody was looking, I swifty broke off of the group and made myself go into the gym. It was very spacious, it had lots of equipment strewn around the hall, I looked up to see some lights hanging above and some windows, which were strangely not bolted with the giant nails from before. Which was understandable, considering the windows were very high up.

I went towards two girls standing in the middle of the gym. They were talking to eachother, not noticing me going towards them.
One of them was a bit taller than me, from what I can see, she had fair skin, light turquoise hair tied to beautiful braid, with a paper headpiece. She wore an elegant kimono along with a pair of geta.
The other was shorter, had tan skin, wore a face mask, blue hair that flowed like water also tied to a braid, but shorter that the taller woman. She wore your typical school uniform with a bag around her shoulder. She also was holding a notebook close to her chest...

I approached them quietly and pulled off the best smile i could do at the moment, clearing my throat. "Hey guys," I started. "You two seem nice, I'm Liy, Ultimate Negotiator. Nice to meet you."
"Hello- wait," The taller woman stood still, and looked me up and down. Reeeally awkward. "Liy... Oh! I know you! I've heard of you when you were on TV!"

I was... on TV? I don't remember any of that, i'll just have to play it off for now. Weird... She must've mistaken me with another Liy.
I chuckled, "Oh, haha. I was really nervous back there..." I awkwardly said.
"Hmm... Where are my manners?" She smiled. "My name is Foldy Kirigami, the Ultimate Origamist."

An origamist

An origamist... I'm not very skilled at origami myself, but i've seen many professionals create many exquisite things only out of paper. And maybe they snuck in some staples and tape in them.
I glanced at the shorter girl, she was writing something on her sketchbook very quickly. Foldy looked behind her shoulder, possibly checking out what she's writing.

Then the girl smiled as she showed the notebook to me, it wrote: "Hi! My name is Teardrop Lavaliere, the Ultimate Linguist! I don't actually talk that much, sorry! If you need help with anything, let me know!" The handwriting was neat and proper, not too big not too small. The thing I was wondering was why she doesn't speak normally?

"Hey, uhm..." I mumbled. "Why don't you speak?" I asked Teardrop, out of curiosity of course. I had never seen anybody have this behavior. Foldy held her hand out to me. "I-I think that question was too personal..." She said. "But... She won't tell me either."
I glanced at Teardrop, she was scribbling on her notebook, but then pulled out an eraser to erase something. Is she going to answer my question?

"Ooh! I really like your artstyle!" I heard Foldy talking to Teardrop, supposedly looking at her artwork. So it wasn't an answer...
I looked around the gym again, seeing the others gradually entering inside the gym. As I was going up to talk to them, I suddenly bumped into a guy taller than me.

I seemed to hit him too hard, judging by the way he stood up. "Ow..." He groaned. "Oh, I'm so sorry. Are you hurt?" I spoke worriedly. I was very scared of being the cause of someone getting hurt. He held his head up, facing me. "Ugh... I'm fine. Thanks for the concern." I can see that he has noticeable eye bags, despite his dark skin. He had black hair with white speckles, and wore a galaxy sweater over a uniform. "So, what do you want?" He asked me. "O-oh, I just want to know everyone here, just in case." He put his hands in his pockets. "Well, the name's Black Hole, it's not my actual real name, but it is the one I tend to go by." He said.

"And your talent?" I asked, confused as to why he didn't say his talent. "I... don't have one."

What? He doesn't have an Ultimate? No, that's not possible

What? He doesn't have an Ultimate? No, that's not possible. If he doesn't have one, how is he here? Is he an intruder? Is he an imposter? Wait... maybe he doesn't remember his talent. Yeah, that might be a possibility.

I cleared my throat. "M-maybe you didn't remember your talent, right?" He tilted his head. "I don't know, honestly." I don't know what to say after that, it was just awkward. But I was surprised, how can someone forget their talent? I just hope he remembers, that's all.
But as I was going to continue...














"Greetings, dear students! Sorry I'm late-!"
