The next day was pretty much the same. Shinwu was acting a fool, and Areum was watching in silence until he did too much and she reprimanded him. Shinwu sighed in content as the bell rang. He stretched. "Oh, it's lunch time. Huh?" Shinwu looked over at Raizel. "Hey. It's lunchtime. Why aren't you eating?" Raizel just stared at him. "Aren't you eating? You didn't bring lunch?" Shinwu stared at him in judgement. 'Well... he didn't bring anything at all. Maybe...' He hummed in thought. "You didn't bring lunch money, either? You've got some balls. You need to eat." Shinwu crossed his arms as Raizel just stared at him. "No bag, no textbook, no food, no money... You're worse than me." "Well, don't insult him." Areum looked on in bored amusement. There was a small hey and a pout from Shinwu as he continued. "I brought my bag and my lunch money at least." he stood. "Follow me. Lunch is on me." Raizel stood to follow when a serious voice shouted for him to stop. Ikhan stood and fixed his glasses "I'm coming with you." Areum stood as well and said the same in an obvious voice. Shinwu looked at them "So... wait, you don't have any money either?" Ikhan was quiet for a moment before coughing with a blush. "I... I left my wallet at home." Shinwu looked at Areum. She just shrugged and he sighed. "Fine, just take it you thieves." He led the way to the cafeteria.

When they walked in, all the girls, and some of the boys, started to murmur at the sight of Raizel. Areum and the rest paid it no mind as they looked for what they wanted to eat. Ikhan pushed up his glasses, Shinwu put his hand on his chin, and Areum and Raizel just looked on in silence. Shinwu broke the silence as he shouted at the cooks "Ma'am extra noodles on ramen please~!" then he turned around to address the other three. "What do you want?" Ikhan was the first to respond. "Ramen." He and Shinwu looked at Raizel and Areum. "Three more bowls of ramen please!!!"

"Let's sit down." Shinwu said as he led them to a table as he starts to make conversation with Ikhan. "Why am I so tired these days..." they pull out their chairs. "Of course you feel loose, you slept for hours on your desk." The rest of the cafeteria continues to gawk at Raizel. "Wow" "Who's that with Shinwu?" Shinwu snorts "Same response everywhere..." "Of course. The new boy is attractive." Areum states. Shinwu looks like he was going to reply before the cooks shout out for his order. He gets up to get the tray and come back. Ikhan quickly gets his bowl without spilling a drop. Shinwu hands the others to the people ont the other side of the table. "Here. You haven't tried this before, right? It's pretty good." he grins as he and Ikhan grab their chopsticks.Raizel narrows his eyes at them as they're pulled apart. He grins "You think i'd fall for this...?" "Hurry up and just eat..." Shinwu cuts him off before stuffing his own face. He blows on it and Ikan speaks up "Is it because you've never tried it???" Raizel wiggles his chopsticks between two fingers. Areum watches the entire exchange in suspicion. Shinwu passes Raizel a small bowl "Eat it with this. It's called kimchi. It is best served with ramen." Areum starts to eat just as Raizel takes a bite. The moment he does he becomes alert "This tastes like... poison? But to me..." Again, Shinwu interrupts him "Come on, stop mumbling and just eat." he coughed and choked a little, and Areum glared at him in annoyance. Raizle blushes a little before he looks down at his ramen "The amount increased." "Silly, the noodles swelled up. Start eating!" He slammed his hands on the table and stood up a little. Ikhan added in "Soup is the best part." Areum sighed at her friends.

After school Areum and Yuna were walking home together with some of Yuna's friends. They came to a parting when the other two girls had to go another way. "Goodbye, Yuna." They waved as they left. "Bye, see you at school." Yuna waved back before continuing with Areum. It was quiet as they walked before a loud groaning filled the silence. Up ahead they could see the outline of a person, but it was too dark to see clearly. Yuna walked closer "Um... are you okay?" Areum stayed behind a little, not wanting to get too close in case it was a nutjob. As the guy turned around a little bit, Yuna could see his eyes. A glowing red, like blood. "Hey..." her heart started to beat faster, and the pace only picked up the more she looked at him. He had large canines, and a scowl. She was frozen as he started to stand. It was wobbly, and he was growling. Yuna stepped back a little bit before screaming. Areum grabbed her arm and flung her to stand behind her. She squared up in front of the threat incase he tried any thing. The man came forward and grabbed her arm. Just as she was about to kick him, another foot came up and smashed against his shoulder. The man was thrown back into a bunch of trash cans. Shinwu stood in front of the two girls in a fighting stance. A new pair of steps came running at them "Yuna, are you okay?" the traumatized girl was sitting on the ground. "Yeah..." came the weak reply "But, Areum, thank you." Areum smiled at the girl. Shinwu frowned down at Yuna. "Shinwu, don't worry. I don't think she's hurt." Ikhan assessed when he noticed the look on the ginger boy's face. "Okay... Yuna, get up slowly." The three friends helped the said girl up. Raizel arrived and looked at the collapsed body, which was slowly getting up as well. Now standing and looking, Shinwu asked "Who is that guy? I'm sure I got him hard..." Everyone looked shocked as the creepy, red eyed guy got up. "He is about to shoot lasers from his eyes!" Ikan sighed "Shinwu... I don't think that's true." Areumj hit him on the head "Idiot."
