Muse Posted July 25, 2003 Share Posted July 25, 2003 [COLOR=red][SIZE=1] OOC: Sorry guys, for not posting again -.- Dai was surely laying low. After those girls started to tease him, he felt like he needed to be alone, for quite a while. He knew he was being a wuss, infact, whenever he walked by the other boys, they told him so. He didn't care. He was thinking that whole time. He needed to toughen up, and he had been doing so. He was thinking of trying out for the Drill Team. As Dai walked around school with Bradley, he heard whispering around the bend. He told his friend to be quiet, and snuck around the corner, being sure to stay hidden, "How come you always tease Reg?" A voice asked, Dai recognized it as Swift's. "She's annoying," A girls voice said coldly. Dai knew it was Courtney, the one who lead in his teasings. "If you really want to fight her or anything, I might can help you" Dai's fists clenched, Swift was going to do something to Reg. He said good-bye to Bradley and sped off. He had gotten fast in his training. Once at top speed, something white was on the ground, and Dai slipped and tripped over it, landing on his face. He got up with a groan, and picked up the white thing. It was a piece of paper. "It's for the Drill Team tryouts!" He muttered, scanning the paper over quickly. It was on friday... He nodded, stuffed the notice in his pocket and sped off again to find Reg, he had to warn her about Swift and Courtney.[/COLOR][/SIZE] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wondershot Posted July 26, 2003 Share Posted July 26, 2003 Ren looked over and saw Dai rushing down the hill at top speed. "Hey, Dai!" Dai stopped dead, Ren was here? He had escaped before, why was he here now? Lt. Akashi was in a wheelchair, serves him right. Dai thought. "Hi? What are you doing here?" "I work for Lt. Akashi, here." "Oh, Have you seen Reg?" "Who?" As if on cue, Reg rounded the corner of the school building and looked at Dai. "Hey! Dai!" She called over. "Hey! I have something important to tell you." Ren looked at Reg's face. "You okay? that looks NASTY." Reg glared at him, then turned her attention to Dai, who spoke up. "Swift and Courtney are gonna try and fight you!" "SWIFT?!" Ren yelled, pounding a his fist into his hand. "That bastard, I can't believe he would do something like this." "Well, they can't hurt me, no matter what they do." Reg amended "I'm trying out for Drill Team Cpatain!" Dai froze, looking shocked. "Uh...so am I." he said finally, there was silence...until Seth spoke. "We appear to have a conflict of sorts on our hands, not everyone will make it into the Drill Team" He looked at Dai and Reg. "Ultimately, you two will be forced to compete against each other." Ren looked up. "Don't worry though, Lt. Akashi and I are..." "SHH." Seth hissed, then motioned for Ren to lean over so that he could whisper. "It would be a little difficult for them to compete if they learned you and I are judges." "Why?" "They might try resorting to favoritism." "Oh, right." Ren looked up. "Good luck to you both!" He amended, and wheeled Seth away, and who else should he bump into but... Col. Clark... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dmitri_Dragoon Posted July 27, 2003 Share Posted July 27, 2003 At one time Clark was actually starting to like Ren, but now he had started to loathe him. He never understood why General Hothoway allowed an inexperienced brat judge the drill competition. He could understand Seth being allowed, even though he should be home, most paralyzed officers would have been Honorably Discharged. He suddenly found himself wishing for another war to be sent off to. "Well Leuitenant Akashi, are you comfy on your little thrown?" Clark asked coldly. Without waiting for a response he walked away, and up to the announcement board. Where he tacked up a sign. *Drill Tryouts* [b]Six will be accepted, six more put on the back up team. Judges will be the Following: General Frank Hathoway, Colonel Domingo Clark, Major Charli Howards, Leuitenant Seth Akashi, Ren (Forgot last name). Tryouts will commence at Fourteen Hundred hours.[/b] Clark walked away from the sign to get ready for his other classes. The hole time he was reconsidering staying on here as a teacher.

Wondershot Posted July 27, 2003 Share Posted July 27, 2003 "Yeesh, what's his problem?" Ren asked, watching at the Col. leave. "He is a very complex man, it is useless to try and understand what he is thinking." Seth replied, almost sadly. Ren kept walking. "Ren?" "Yes, sir?" "Do you think of me like your father?" Ren stopped and looked down. "...Yeah...I guess...maybe..." "Hmph, then I guess you fail." "What?" "It's a test I give to people to see if they have confidence, since you failed to respond sure of yourself, I doubt your confidence." "I have confidence!" "Then prove it." There was a long silence. "Sir?" "Yes?" "Would you...like to come and stay at my place?" "...Why?" "Cause you're paralyzed, and I'm not sure you have anywhere to go..." "...Could you tell that just by looking at me?" "...Yes." Seth looked at the ground. "My name, Akashi, is not my own, I was an orphan, joined the army hoping to make a name for myself. Akashi means "proof", which is what I always hoped to attain." "Yeah, like me..." "Why do you say that?" "Because...I want to know why everyone is dying lately." "...So do I..." Ren looked up. "Sir, I want you to come stay at Hikigane's!" "Ren..." Seth began, but Ren wasn't about to stop, there was a fire in his eyes unlike anything Seth had ever seen in anyone. "No, I can't just sit here while you have to live confined to this piece of junk! If you have somewhere else to go, a family, or another close friend, fine. Just don't turn me down for any other reason!" "...I guess you passed..." "What?" "My test of confidence, you passed." "Oh...right." Ren looked ad Seth. "So, will you come live at my place?" "...I'll consider it. Now, isn't it time for our class?" "Yes, sir!" Ren said, walking off to the field.

Jagan Posted July 28, 2003 Share Posted July 28, 2003 "So Reg and Dai want to fight?" Swift says to himself. Swift puts the phone he was carrying in his pocket. He looks around for Reg, Dai, or Courtney but doesn't see any of them. "Reg can se Courtney any time. I have Dai a few classes from now." Swift walks to his next class and sits down in his meditating position. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
