The streets are busy today. As the pitch black sky hangs above the geometric city of white sharp shapes and dark lamp posts that emit various shades of red, everyone talks about their day or just focuses on their intended destination.
That was a plan of one individual in particular.
It was his first day of school in fact. But not really for everyone else cause he enrolled late unfortunately.
He walks down the speckled white sidewalk that lead to the two story high school.
Why did he enroll late?
His family wanted to keep them home until they thought he was ready, since he was a bit anti social.
He inhales and takes a step into the high school with other students, merging himself into the crowd, he shuffles to the office building and waits for a staff member to notice him.
One of them looks up and smiles.
“Hey there hun! Is this your first day?” she asked sweetly, he nervously nods.
“Can you give me your name so I can find your student aid buddy?” she asked, he nods once more.
Oh no he has to have a buddy? He felt his heart pound as he spoke his name.
“Eyeris Kuura” he says, she nods and types and clicks away on the computer a bit, then picks up the phone.
“Hello. You can send her down now, Kuura arrived!”
“...”
“Alright thanks, bye!” she puts the phone down then motions her hand to the seat behind Eyeris.
“Go ahead and take a seat!” she said.
Eyeris nervously sits down and awaits his student aid Buddy's arrival.
A student steps through the door not long after, she had a perfect figure with a red and black themed school uniform. Her red pigtails almost hit the floor. She had a grey eye and pink polka dot eye patch over the other.
“Hey there one eye!” The girl said waving at Eyeris. He narrows his eyes at her a little, since he did have bandages over his other eye, but he had a more suppressed reason for it.
Eyeris stands up.
“I...I have a name you know!” he stampers, she giggles a little.
“Oh I know! Eyeris Kuura right?” she asked, Eyeris nods.
“I'm sure you already guessed, but I'm your aid buddy! Otomi Howari! I'll start showing you around the school!” Otomi starts to head out, Eyeris nervously follows afterward.
“So, do you plan on joining any clubs this semester?” she asked. As Eyeris examined the mostly empty halls, some of the male students were looking at Otomi.
“Uhm. Maybe. Are you in any?” Eyeris asks.
“Well. No, but a lot of my friends are, any you'd wanna join? We do have a night explorers club!” she exclaims, Eyeris admitted that the name caught his interest.
Otomi leads him to a hallway with double doors at the end.
“Just down here!” she looked back at him.
Eyeris was both nervous and excited, but at least he wasn't by himself to meet unfamiliar people.
She pushes open the doors with full energy.
“Hey Otrua! Come meet the new guy!” Otomi shouts, she then looked astonished.
The room were the club was held was small, it had a large whiteboard and cork board, as well as a round table with some chairs.
There was one man simply adjusting the seating area.
“Hmmmm?” the man with dark eyes and glasses called Otrua looked up.
“Where are the others!?” Otomi wailed.
“They don't get here till later, did you not drink your caffeine today?” he smiled and little. She crosses her arms.
“I was too busy getting ready for the new guy! That's all…” she pouts.
“Oh I'm to blame?” Eyeris remarks half sarcastically. Otrua approaches the two.
“Hehe, don't mind her, I'm the president of the night explorers club Otrua! Do you plan on joining?” he extended a hand.
Eyeris shakes his hand.
“It sounds interesting, um! I'm Eyeris Kuura by the way. Count me in!” Eyeris was starting to feel more comfortable at the school now. Meeting two friendly people and even joining a club.
“Welcome aboard! Have a seat so we can wait for the other members!” Otrua grins.
“Oh cool! I can't wait to meet them!” Eyeris sits in a seat. Otomi giggles.
“Well I guess I'll get going-” as she turns Otrua runs at her at terrifying speed and grabs her shoulder.
“And where do you think your going!?~” he asked, she stood there petrified.
“Uhm! Back to home room-” he harshly makes her face Otrua as he cunningly grins.
“You don't remember? You said you'd finally join this club today with the new student didn't you?” he asked, she groans in annoyance.
“Ugh...fiiiine!” she lazily slumps down in a seat, Otrua sits beside Otomi.
“I'll explain how this club works once the others arrive!”
