We silently trailed into our home room after the whole... luck debacle... I guess. It only took a few moments for us all to sit down- despite how many of us were there. The teacher- Yukizome-Sensei- stood at her desk and smiled warmly, her paled skin glowing happily.
"Alright class- I'm not sure if you know this, but your first week of school is called the Introduction week! Basically, you stay in your homeroom class the whole of the week and work on a group assignment." She explained, a small smile never leaving her face- I wish I could have that much optimism.
Though a murmur spread across the room- until oddly enough the teenagers in it fell silent. Apart from a little bit of shuffling... Group projects were odd for a group of unfamiliar kids.
This was gonna suck.
"Alright!" Yukizome-sensei started," this project is going to make you work with other students who have talents similar to yours. Ahem... That means you don't have an idol to protect you Mr. Kuzuryu-" a chorus of 'ohs'-"Anyways lets list off the categories and the people in them!
Fist off We have the Performers: Peko Pekoyama, Chihiro Fujisaki, Kiyotaka Ishimaru, and Natsia No-Makashi. Please stand up!" the group of four stood up and a handful of people clapped.
"Next up we have the tech masters: Ibuki Mioda, Kayla Katsumi, Celestia Ludenburg, and Aoi Asahina!"
The Group stood fluidly this time, Asahina waving happily and another girl jumping up and down with a computer at her side.
"The Next bunch is probably the most notable, the World Changers! Sonia Nevermind Byakuya Togami, Makoto Naegi, and Hopes Peaks own Fuyuhiko Kuzuryu!"
It took me a minute to proses- me- me, in the 'World Changers' category? I stood over the applause for Kuzuryu -whom I assumed was the son of the headmaster. They... Were all blonde but me... Huh.
"Next up we've got the Lucksters! Mikan Tsumiki, Junko Enoshima, Hajime Hinata-Kamukura, and Chiaki Nanami. All of you Please stand!"
A round of applause and a whoop from Komaeda-San sounded as... The clumsy group from earlier stood.
"After them we have quite the flip- the Weapon Holders. Please rise: Sayaka Maizono, Akane Owari, Mahiru Koizumi, and the feared Kyoko Kirigiri!"
A group of tough looking ladies stood... One of them was that girl from earlier! So... She was Kyoko Kirigiri, huh- heir to the most feared Yakuza Clan in Japan.
"You!" um... Kuzuryu shouted, turning to Kirigiri," How the hell are you here?! Why is the gang leader aloud in my damn school?!... You should be in jail Ms. Kirigiri-Shi."
That was a lot of hostility... I was sure they had met before now. Even the honorific he'd used... Like she was nonexistent. When I turned to Kirigiri, she looked strangely calm.
We took a moment To sort that out, as. Yukizome-Sensei wanted to continue what she was doing. Eventually, she called off all of the teams. Even mentioning that there was two athletes teams... Because there were so many athletes. After that, she told us to get into our groups and start brainstorming.
Right away I chose to talk near exclusively to the only girl on our group: Sonia Nevermind. The other two seemed more... Closed off I guess. Ms. Nevermind, while being important didn't seem to few herself in the same light as the other two.
I do that too... But it's very different from me to her. I'm just a nurse... Not even a real doctor. There's also a Detective and a Prince... Yeesh, I don't deserve this.
"So..." I mumbled softly, fumbling with my hair- I was really hoping for the best here oh goodness.
A joyful and slightly accented voice rang out," Well! Lets start on the brainstorming, shall we?"
I nodded gratefully, admittedly somewhat ignoring the other member's of our group. Just because again... I was a bit scared of them. Sonia grinned and clapped happily. With that, the two of us starting planning... And to my surprise- soon enough Kuzuryu stared helping as well.
After a moment I asked if the others were bilingual or multilingual. They all said they were at least bilingual fluently. I spoke fluent Spanish and knew sign, Sonia spoke Norwegian and Chinese, Kuzuryu managed to figure out Italian, and Togami... Started a whole list... But he said his favorite was French. We can work with that.
"Ahah! I think I've got it!" Sonia cried happily, clasping her hands together in front of her chest," What if we do our introductions in one or two languages we speak? Obviously not at the same time, Except Naegi-San I guess... He knows sign... But... Say 'Hello My name is' in one language and 'I'm the Ultimate ___' in another."
"Kickass idea Nevermind-Chan," Kuzuryu said, a smirk on his childish lips.
I shared in Kuzuryu's excitement, though the other part of our group didn't look as ecstatic. Togami looked down right mad at the idea. Honestly, I didn't really care... I thought Sonia's plan was amazing. How fitting for the Ultimate Affluent Progeny.
"By the way Kuzuryu-Kun, you can just call me Sonia," the blonde rang happily, Kuzuryu's eyes lot up just slightly as she called him 'kun'... Guess that makes sense when you're shorter and baby-faced.
He ran his fingers through his short cut hair softly," Thanks Sonia-Chan, I guess."
We spent the rest of class planning out ideas and agreements for the project. Togami only jumped in when he disagreed with something. We had a few mock trials along the way...
Wait...
That's it! A mock trial!

That's enough KuzuSonia for you sinners.
Oh and by the way I'm back. If you were wondering. At all. Ever. ;^^
