Staring out the window from the bus Tashiro's mind spaces out, the noise everyone was making suddenly silenced. "Is there a reason for our lives to be this miserable?" Tashiro though. Looking at his watch it is 6:45, "this is too damn early for learning" said to himself. Tashiro closes his eyes and drifts off to sleep. After 15 minutes of sleep which seemed like 1 to Tashiro, a boy with Black hair nudges Tashiro on the shoulder. "Hey this is your stop right?" asked the boy with black hair. "Yeah, thanks for waking me" replied Tashiro. Tashiro and the boy exit the bus and walk to the entrance. "My name is Tashiro," said Tashiro to break the silence they both had. "Nice to meet you, I'm Kagame". They both entered the entrance doors and looked at their classes on the board. "Hey we have 5 periods together," said Kagame. Tashiro looked at the board to see which classes. "Huh, we have 1st, 2nd, and 7th together," said Tashiro. Kagame with a smile on his face saying, "I guess we are going to have to rely on each other to do our part of the work". Tashiro giving a slight smile "Seems so". At that moment, a girl walks in between them staring up at the board. Kagame gives Tashiro a look as if he should introduce himself and make a move. Tashiro gives him an expression that says no you do it. The girl turns to Tashiro and says "You must be new here". Tashiro giving a nod and introducing himself and Kagame, "Yeah, my name is Tashiro and this is Kagame" he said while looking at Kagame. "Nice to meet you," Kagame said with a blushed face. The girl gave a smile and replied "My name is Lisa; it is nice to meet you both". Kagame with a shy outburst begins to say "so Lisa, you want to hang with us for the time being?" Lisa looks at Kagame while laughing "sure, you already made my day by including that awkward outburst" she said. Kagame in the lead with Lisa, Tashiro is 2 feet behind them with a tired look on his face. "You don't say much do you Tashiro?" asked Lisa. Tashiro suddenly snapping out of it and replying "oh I'm just tired" said Tashiro with a sheepish face. They all sit at a table outside and sit in silence. "Well then it is settled," said Kagame with a joyful attitude. "This will be our meeting place every time," he said with a smile. Lisa laughs and agrees. Suddenly a group of boys stand in front of the table and say "Hey losers, this is our table". Kagame stands up and begins to say "come on guys this is a free property for everyone," he says with a smile. The boy with red hair pushes Kagame to the floor. "Hey, asshole what's wrong with you?" Lisa saying with an irritated voice, "look here you little shit, this is our table and that's final" says the boy with red hair. Tashiro getting up and facing the boy with red hair "what's your problem asshole, this is just a table" Tashiro saying, the boy with red hair steps up to him and says "what are you going to do about it?" A crowd forming around them, Tashiro puts up his guard. Tashiro putting one leg behind and one leg in front, his fists near his face getting ready for the boy to swing, "what kind of stance is that?" said the boy while laughing. Tashiro still and not moving with an angry look on his face, the boy proceeds to put his guard up and lets out a swing. Tashiro dodging this with ease, grabbing his arm and kicking his leg making the boy flip forward. The boy falls on his back on the table, with pain in his arm and leg the boy lets out a scream. The principle comes into the crowd and steps forward to Tashiro. "What is the meaning of this?" asked the principle with an angry voice. "He tested me" Tashiro replied. The principle helping the boy off the table and onto his feet, "both of you in my office" he demanded. Tashiro waving his friends goodbye and walking to the principal's office, Tashiro, and the boy sit and wait. "What are your names?" he asked politely. The boy answered with a voice like he was still in pain, "Rahn" he said. The principal looks at Tashiro and awaits an answer, "Tashiro" says Tashiro with an annoyed voice. "What started this confrontation?" he asked. "Nothing much, this asshole just came along and fucked everything up" replied Tashiro. "Watch your language while in front of me Tashiro," he said with an unbelievable expression. Rahn had nothing to say the whole time in the principal's office. "If I ever catch you in a fight again I will suspend you both," he said. Tashiro getting up saying "yeah, yeah" and walking out, meeting Kagame and Lisa at the table, "so what happened," asked Lisa. "Just some bullshit about catching me in a fight and suspensions" replied Tashiro; meanwhile Kagame is sitting at the table with amazement. "I'm surprised he didn't suspend you today," he said. "Well, it is the first day of school," said Tashiro. Suddenly Rahn is approaching Tashiro, "Tashiro," Rahn said in a light voice. Turning his head to him he replies "yeah?" "I want to apologize about my behavior earlier" saying Rahn, "it's alright" Tashiro saying, "why don't you join us, Rahn?" Kagame with a face of shock he says, "Are you serious?" Tashiro looking at Kagame and saying "look dude it's not a good day to start making enemies" Tashiro saying, Kagame then nodding, "Well my name is Lisa and this is Kagame" Lisa said with a smile. "You've already met Tashiro, but not in the way we did" Lisa saying then laughing. "Yeah" Rahn begging to grin a bit, Tashiro and Rahn sit down. The bell rings loudly and people begin to walk to class. "Oh man already?" saying Kagame with a tired look, "yep, so it begins" Lisa saying jokingly. Kagame, Tashiro, Lisa, and Rahn start to get up and saying goodbye to each other and begin walking to class.
