Just My Luck...! (Open)

[lianne]

"Ayoko na!!! Anyone, help me, please!!" A thirteen-year old girl shouted grabbing the attention of every people around her. She dropped her stuff and looked at the sky. It was engulfed by dark clouds from which the rain drops fell. This girl then looked at herself with her dirty and wet blue dress. Upon that action, a loud scream covered the sound made by the rain. Why was this dirty wet girl screaming in annoyance and irritation? Well, it all started in her arrival at the ALICE ACADEMY.

Earlier that day, it was sunny and everything seemed peaceful enough. A thirteen year old girl wearing a beautiful blue dress was walking to the Dorm Rooms. When she was about a half-way there, something made her turn back. Her tummy growled and she was hungry. She decided to grab some food at the canteen first. She bought hamburger and juice. As she was about to exit the canteen, someone accidentally pushed her. She spilled the juice and wet herself.

"Aargghh! Be a little more careful!" she said glaring at the guy who completely ignored her. After raising an eyebrow, she continued walking. A few seconds after, it started to rain. She grabbed her stuff and ran out of the canteen. Rain drops became bigger and bigger every second. She slipped a couple of times and fell on puddles, ruined her dress and was frustrated.

"Just my luck! Why is this happening?! Gaahh" her complaints grew larger and larger until she saw the door of the Dorm Rooms. Before she could make another step, A bicycle passed by a puddle so the rain water splashed at her. She screamed with annoyance and anger.

"Ayoko na!!! Anyone, help me, please!!" She shouted and screamed. Tears flowed along with the droplets of rain. She knelt down and covered her face with her hands. She didn't care what others thought, she was mad and annoyed.

[Kisara]

Rain. One of her favourite’s weather. The rain didn’t ceased, it just continue on, sometimes poured heavily, sometimes light drops but it never stop. Each drop into the ground soothes her. The sound of the rain makes her feel calm and peaceful. The rain drops were music to her ears. She never got tired of it. At home, she would stay at the window, staring as the rain drops sliding slowly on the glass. She felt as if the rain falls on the earth wash away her problems.

Wearing her blue jacket and of course not forgetting a blue umbrella to shield her from the rain, she walked back to her dorm. God, homework is driving her crazy. Why do the teachers gave too much homework? She grumpily thought as she jumped across a puddle. So, much for slacking off.

Her intention then was shifted to a blond girl. The girl, she never saw her before. A new student perhaps? She looked rather annoyed and angry. Better, not get near her, the silver-haired girl thought as she turned to walk to her dorm. Before she could walk away, a splash was heard. Her head shifted to the source of the noise. The new girl was dripping wet and tears could be seen in her eyes. Sometimes fate can be cruel.

"Ayoko na!!! Anyone, help me, please!!"

Without thinking any further, Kisara ran towards the girl. She felt pity for the poor girl. Her first day here and luck doesn’t choose her side. She stopped in front of her and shields her using her umbrella. Kneeling down and she extended her hand to help her up.

“Ano..Daijobudaiyo?( Are you okay?)”

[lianne]

The water droplets stopped falling...

Did I said the magic words? Did the rain stopped? The golden haired girl thought and looked above her. It was blue... 'Is that the sky?' she thought and took a glimpse around her. A girl stood in front of her, holding up an umbrella for them not to get wet.

“Ano..Daijobudaiyo?( Are you okay?)”

Good thing she knew a little Japanese. She understood what the girl just said. Due to her present mood, this young girl happened to be more annoyed than before.

'She's asking me if I'm okay... do I look alright to her?'

She closed her eyes and let out a sigh.

"If you can call being wet and dirty during the first day in this academy okay, then, I'm fine, perfectly fine" she said sarcastically.

She looked up at the girl and let out another sigh.

"I'm sorry... You see, it's my first day here and it's already a disaster. What's more worse than that? I hope you could understand" She said apologetically.

"I'm Lianna"

[Manasseh]

"No...way...hachooo!"

I shuddered at the temperature. Even though I was wearing a brown jacket with a red blouse inside, I should be feeling at least warmer - but guess what? I'm wearing a skirt, and skirt that makes my legs stand out, which is why I put on stockings - and fot that matter, stockings that still makes you cold, if possible even colder because it sticks to your skin. And then, one more thing came. Rain!

Friggin' rain, come out even at the slightest time I dress up like a bishojo. Yeah, well I can't complain. All I can do is grab an umbrella - which I do NOT have with me. Next up on the list is to rent one until I get back to the girl's dormitory - no Rabbits to cover for a little stroll, nor the time to run to Central or to anyone else around. To make it worse, I wasn't under anything that can protect me from those cold drops of water - not a roof, a thick book, or even with a boy with the alice of water manipulation.

I can't go on pondering deeper about the situation I'm in, since it is pretty obvious from what I've been raving on and on and on - in my head. Getting a little loco now, eh? I felt my present clothes stick to my skin. I have to get under something, fast! I started to run, and before a short time I saw a girl with an umbrella and crouching, with another female student on the ground who seems to be in a more distressing clothing situation than me. I mean, LOOK at that dress!

Can't think about being too emo, I needed to act fast. With so much courage and speed gathered in me, I ended up barely sitting on the still wet ground under the umbrella shade, practically over the edge of my patience when I began to feel my legs shivering under the weight of my body and the still coldness in the atmosphere. I still needed to carry myself and not take any notice upon my arrival. Oh, lemme stay under thy blessed umbrella!

[Kisara]

Upon asking the girl current situation, her silver eyes started to examined the new student. Her once dried blonde hair was now soaked, her clothes were dirtied by the muddy water and she could also see a stain. Talking about bad luck. She knew the girl grew more annoyed by her question. Why should she care? She could leave and left her in this cold weather. But thinking the possibilities the girl might get sick or do something stupid, she decided not to care about her annoyance because of her question.


"If you can call being wet and dirty during the first day in this academy okay, then, I'm fine, perfectly fine"

She raised her eye brow, hearing the girl’s sarcastic tone. Rude, much? Temper, temper. Funny she felt, when the weather can reflect someone feelings. A rainy weather can represent sadness, pressure, depression and of course bad luck. Opening her mouth, she wanted to reply the girl but it seem she was one fast talker.

"I'm sorry... You see, it's my first day here and it's already a disaster. What's more worse than that? I hope you could understand"

"I'm Lianna"

Oh, how humans feeling change too fast. Well, the girl tone didn’t affect her that much and she know how it feels when luck doesn’t choose her side. Giving the new girl a smile, Kisara spoke.

“That’s okay. I’m Kisara Mizuhara. Call me Kisara”

Eh? She felt weird. There’s another girl here. And for sure, the other girl was soaking wet also. Wow! She was the saviour of the day. She had saved two people from the rain. Her umbrella was the one must be credit for. Her silver eyes shifted to the two figures inside her umbrella. Being the kind hearted girl she is, she decided to help them.

“Guys, why don’t we go to my room? You can dry yourself there.”

[lianne]

“That’s okay. I’m Kisara Mizuhara. Call me Kisara”

"Nice to meet you. I-" Lianna was in the middle of her sentence when another girl showed up, wet like her but in a better condition than she was. Surprised, her mouth hanged open and let out a small chuckle.

'I guess this isn't one of her lucky days aswell' Lianna thought and smiled.

“Guys, why don’t we go to my room? You can dry yourself there.”

It was a good idea for Lianna but she still had second thoughts. She never experienced knowing someone on her first day and she felt a little odd about it. Due her submissive attitude, she can't help but to agree. Guess you can change a person's attitude despite of the weirdness of the situation.

"Sure, that is, if it won't be a burden to you." She told her and smiled.

[Manasseh]

I sniffed before nodding my head reluctantly. I was feeling rather dizzy, and I wanted to take a long, hot shower. That was for the best; I don't get cold, and I won't come up with a fever. Yeah, so following this Kisara Mizuhara to her room is fine with me. But there was one itty-bitty problem that can be easily overlooked by a proud savior...

...three people can't fit in an umbrella. Only two, and that's if they stay reeeaaaallly close to each other. Which is why, I was hoping, that we could bring yours truly to a shaded area whereas I can wait for the rain to stop or another person to come by - with an umbrella. But wait. I haven't been under an umbrella for a while. Maybe, the umbrella has extended capacities to hold ladies? Ha.

Besides that, and this isn't a problem, but those two are really making me iffy. Introducing so fast... I wasn't one to move like that. Natural reaction, maybe? Anyways, I won't introduce myself until I get dry, and warm, and comfy. Eh. Just as long as I get dry then I will :3 Silly me. That's important.

I was eager to stand up straight, probably because my legs were shivering under my weight and the atmosphere suppressing it. I meekly peeked out from my hollow shell and stated to Kisara, "May I...stand?" She was holding an umbrella on top of my head, and if I stand it was of no question that I would snag to it, possibly making it blow or break. Being a shy being that I am, I couldn't just take the edge of the umbrella, hold it over my head and run. I needed to think about the other girl sprawled on the ground.

Lianna. I have such sensitive ears :3

[Kisara]

"Sure, that is, if it won't be a burden to you."

Lianna replied and the other girl just nods her head, giving response to her question. Burden, no, it’s not burdening at all. Well, except for maybe taking two people whom she met for about 5 minutes to her room, not knowing their true selves, then everything just peachy. But thinking to the bright side, she would earn two new friends and she would felt satisfied, helping people in need. Okay, she picks two new friends and the feeling of satisfied.

“Not at all.”

“May I...stand?"

Opps...she forgot about her still knelling down. Poor girl, she must be shivering right now. Giving the other girl a grin, Kisara stood up. Time to go to her dorm room. Wait, her umbrella is quite small, how could she support two people including her to the dorm building without getting wet? Why didn’t she think of it before? Okay, time for drastic measure. Within a minute, she manages to catch an idea. Not a very good idea but this is the only idea she could think of.

“Okay, guys. We’re going to run to the dorm building due to the size of my umbrella can’t support all of us.”

Closing her umbrella, she could feel the rain drops into her head. The feeling of cold rushed to her nervous system. Odd, she likes it. If they can’t fit in her umbrella, everybody must sacrifice. They all have to endure the coldness and wetness. Looking to the two of her companion, she said.

“On the count of three, we’re going to run.”

“1….2….3….run.”

[lianne]

“Not at all.”

A reply from Kisara made Lianna smile. It was a smile she rarely showed to anyone especially to someone she just met a few minutes ago. Who could have thought that in a single moment, a single conversation and a single look, a person can gain two people that she may add to her circle of companions? But could they be really her friends? Well, she was sure of that. She never doubted anyone's strength, abilities or personalities that was why she always experienced being lied at, betrayed and left. The thought of betrayal made her recall memories of her past and wondered how she could cope up with changes she was about to face.

"May I...stand?"

The other girl asked and broke her thought. Oh yeah, she had been kneeling down for several minutes now. It was time for her to get up. Uugghh, she felt so dirty that she couldn't bare touching her dress. Luck truly wasn't on her side, it never were.

“Okay, guys. We’re going to run to the dorm building due to the size of my umbrella can’t support all of us.”

Lianna looked at the umbrella, it was indeed, too small for them to fit into.

“On the count of three, we’re going to run.”

"Run?" she said looking at Kisara and the other girl. "Okay then" she continued. It was fine with her since, she was already wet and soaked, it won't be a problem.

“1….2….3….run.”

Grabbing her stuff upon the start of the count, she was ready to run. She ran as fast as she could, stepping on puddles which stained her dress even more. She didn't care as long as she reached the Dorm building.

[`Shaira`]

Meanwhile, Shaira is walking in the dorm hall seeing those girls running. Actually, she is lost. She don't know where is the girls' CR. As she see those girls entering, she immediately ask them with all her courage where is the CR. "Uhhmmm... can I ask a question? I'm just new here and I am not familiar of the dormitory. Do you know where is the CR? Di ko na kasi mapigilan ehh... I mean I really need to go there.", she said to them.
