*note: This is after everyone gets restrictors.
It’s been a while since I visited town. I haven’t been in the mood for the past few days, which would be a plausible reason enough for others to know why I haven’t gone strolling in its grounds.
Except I don’t think I would be enjoying this day any time soon. The only thing I felt awaiting me was monotonous meetings, lame conversations, and common shows; because today, everyone in the academy was in shackles.
The shackles are being almost literally.
I looked down upon my wrist where, like a huge, black scar was clinging tightly to my skin, an Alice restrictor fastened itself next to my friendship bracelet. I scrunched my nose at it, disgusted. Why do I have to wear this, too? I’ve been a good girl.
Stupid government officials- just because they don’t get any, they kick us around.
Without much thought, as if instinct took over, I stopped abruptly and began to try and pry away the sickening object from my skin. Even though I knew that there’s a possibility that the restrictor would retaliate if it’s been tampered with, I still tried to pull it loose.
I felt a mild electric shock run up my arm to my neck. Immediately I let go of the ‘accessory’, somehow irritated. As I continued to walk, I shook my whole arm, trying to let it slip without forced physical contact. But even then, I knew it was hopeless.
I entered a shop and was greeted by a live-looking clerk, smiling from ear to ear, as he asked my which sign I’d like to buy today. As I scanned the stock and its prices, I muttered under my breath, “How about something that says, ‘Get me my friend back’?” I didn’t even know which friend I myself meant; my power, or Takara Yuu? I looked up to see if the clerk heard me. Apparently he did, but he was not programmed to answer anything like that.
That smile on his face is starting to make me sick.
At last I found something that I should have bought a long time ago. I pointed to the board and, with a flick of his wrist; the clerk nabbed it from the glass case keeping it as display and issued a receipt. I paid him an amount of 500 Rabbits, and I hoped that what I bought was something I needed. I took the board from him, walking out of the store with it tucked under my arm.
Oh well, I thought bitterly as I found a vacant bench to sit on. I should at least make the best out of things while I still can.. I held up the sign for everyone who passed by to read, before letting it shoot down to the ground, carrying itself in its own personal pride.
I figured I should make things fun by manual labor- no kidding.
The sign read, “Helper-for-Rent. 25 R's an hour.” I rested my head on my shoulder, leaning to the side, as I waited for someone to stop and take notice of the student council's vice-president starting to work a job right after everyone's crippled without power.

OoC: Im guessing while I was away a storyline appared. Oh well seeing your the only thread i can bring up Ill try to go off from what you have.
Ic: It was a nice day at Alice Academy the skys were clear, there was a cool gentle breeze blowing over the school. And the sun was shinning brightly over the compound of the school. But even thought weather was nice didn't mean the students them selfs were all in a good mood. Because D-Day was upon them, Just a while ago the goverment got scared yellow of the people who have alices and decided for a way to controll them. And thus the restriction was invented. On the outside it looked like a black braclet with little or no fashion design. But on the inside was a advance network of techonogly and biology. From what Cloud could tell it was a reader that sences nerve and DNA changes or reactions. That was his best idea, But even though it was so advance for its size and job. It still pissed Cloud off.
When the annoucment came out Cloud wanted nothing more then to run out of there. But seeing they decided to get the older kids frist then the younger ones it seemed that lady luck her self was laughing at him. Even though the Goverment made the law didn't mean that he would bend over gently. As a kid would do he went into the nurses office and caused of a storm of fire balls, explosions, and structure changes. He gave both the student council and teachers a headache. But now Cloud was the one with the head ache.
Cloud let out a sigh as he layed under a tree on a small grassy hill in central town. He was looking up at the sky thinking how things would of been if he just went for a dead sprint and ran for the wall before they gave him his new fashion statment. He sighed again and pulls at a black collar around his neck. His was diffrent from everyone elses because he put up a fight and they couldn't hold down his arms and legs with out him trying to melt them off so the grabbed a larger model and wrapped it around his neck. To make matters even worse cause he was so small and weak a group of kids glued two chain links around it making it look like a slave collar.
He slowy sits up and whinces in pain as he gets up and he fixes his glasses and sighs. His fox ears swoup down giving it away that he was really sad with this new restrion. He slowy gets up and he walks away wondering what to do. He then stops as he smells someone fimilar and he runs off to find the person. Even though Clouds Alice was gone that didn't mean he was turely powerless. Because before the restriction he fused him self with a fox giving him the abilitys of a fox. He countines and stops once he spots the Vice-Principal of the Student Councial. He remembers her because her sent was on Hiei and not only that but Cloud remembers meeting her once a long time ago. He walks over and he yells "You know people usally wallow in sarrow when losing something they loved. "
He looks at her with a stupid smile on his face and he says with a friendly tone "Hi! Im Cloud. You might remember seeing me around Hiei or being a old Council member. One of the Presidents from the past..." He looks at the sign and he says "Pay ya a million rabbits if ya help me get rid of this stupid collar." And he laughs jokenly and he fixes his glasses and he says. "Naw but seriously wanna help me with something."
And he stands there looking at her and he as a little machivious grin upon his face

I sighed while on the bench, getting a bit impatient with how so many people passed by and didn’t even take notice. Now I don’t wonder why the officials went through all the trouble creating something like this to ensure our Alices would be nullified.
We’re about as observant as a muffin.
I believe it’s because we’re so used to seeing things out of the ordinary, seeing things that’s so common and typical literally sends our nerve endings dead. It’s like taking, “So what”, to a whole new level.
I slammed a closed fist on the wooden bench, the space beside me, before hearing a voice comment loudly, “You know people usually wallow in sorrow when losing something they loved.” I thought the young man was referring to my action on cue, or he simply timed the words without knowing I’d do something.
Not able to think of a retort to his comment, rather surprised in the sudden voice, I only raised an eyebrow to express my puzzlement. I tried to contain the sudden flicker in my mind for a browse of my memories to who he was, but found none.
I found the smile on his face rather funny, finally giving up on acting all professional in an attempt to seem to be looking for money big-time. “Hi!” he greeted pleasantly. “I’m Cloud. You might remember seeing me around Hiei-” I thought about it, but I didn’t recall seeing him around Hiei…besides, I recoiled at the sound of the Valentines’ name out loud. There’s just something I don’t like to remember with him. “-or being a old Council member. One of the presidents from the past…”
His voice trailed off, and I looked up to see him noticing my little signboard. I straightened my back, away from its slouching and leaning forms, prepared myself for business…finally. “Pay ya a million rabbits if ya help me get rid of this stupid collar,” Cloud laughed lightheartedly. I couldn’t help but let out a small giggle at his little jokes. He seemed carefree, so I didn’t think he would need my help with anything.
Especially since it is manual labor...
When he fixed his glasses and said, “Nah but seriously, wanna help me with something,” I was hoping he was still joking, but when I saw that mischievous grin on his face, my hopes fell.
“Uh…really now?” I managed to croak in my startled stupor. “… I don’ t see why not,” I continued after a breath, thinking business.

Cloud looks at the girl his fox ears twitches a bit and he says with a smile upon his face. "Before I start you have to forgive me I do then to wander off in conversation. But what if I told you that even though these little bracelets though powerful and effective there is a way to remove them no matter what a person says or do theres always a way to solve a problem. Either though brute force or sheer intellagance. Just some words of advice if you wish to contine being in the student Council. Anyway back to my little problem like I said I would pay you if you can help me remove this collar. And all I would need from you is to find people with intellagance and machacal know how. If you can do that then I would pay you two ways. One a heafty amout of rabbits, and B your Alice."
He looks at her and he smiles as he looks up to the sky. Cloud is rather intellagent. That was thanks to his alice burning the science world into the back of his skull. He then looks back at her and feels bad for laying down a chance of freedom to someone with much respect and a honorible postion. He looks down and says with a small smile. "Or you could go with Option B and help me clean and tone instrements at the music store. I use to just use my alice and do it all with atoms but now that I can do use my powers. Its going to be rather weird....I'll treat ya to lunch and movie as payment.....Or I could just give you Rabbits." He smiles his friendly smile that he is known to have and he takes off his glasses as his fox ears twitches making him look like a coufused little puppy for a secound. And he waits for a reply.

I looked at Cloud’s peculiar fox ears as he spoke. I guess I was left staring pretty much as I listened to him speak with a grin. “Before I start you have to forgive me I do then to wander off in conversation. But what if I told you that even though these little bracelets though powerful and effective there is a way to remove them no matter what a person says or do there’s always a way to solve a problem.” All right, he got me right there.
I sat up straight, interested in the topic.
“Either though brute force or sheer intelligence,” he continued. Scratch the first part then, I wanted to comment, but I was too engrossed in the possible options to consider than interrupting him. “Just some words of advice if you wish to continue being in the student Council.” I let out a soft chuckle. I don’t wish to continue on being in the council, even if I had numerous accesses to information I want to feed this little brain of mine.
I continued to listen to him, not interrupting with my silly comments. “Anyway back to my little problem like I said I would pay you if you can help me remove this collar. And all I would need from you is to find people with intelligence and mechanical know how. If you can do that then I would pay you two ways: one a hefty amount of rabbits, and B your Alice.” Both I needed greatly. I wondered if he could pay me in both ways.
I felt that would be asking a bit too much…but business is business, isn’t it?
I made a mental note to myself to ask about this after his slight speech. I watched him look up, smiling. My gaze followed him, but there was nothing else peculiar than the same blue sky I’ve been living under for the past year. I let my eyes look down at Cloud again, seeing him fix his your eyes on me once more.
His eyes went downcast, and so did the rest of his face. I tilted my head to the side slightly, pondering why. “Or you could go with Option B and help me clean and tone instruments at the music store. I use to just use my alice and do it all with atoms but now that I can do use my powers. Its going to be rather weird....I'll treat ya to lunch and movie as payment.....Or I could just give you Rabbits.”
“The two are tempting, and I could get Rabbits out of both. It’s a hard choice to make.”
I gave it some thought. Trying to take off this restrictor would be an obvious nuisance- it’ll be hard to find the right way to do it. Cleaning instruments would be easy, no problem. But I feel that I so need to get back my freedom right now, yet finding the people who can help would be another problem.
“Huh…my instincts say take both.”
I grinned. “Let’s do B first. A would take longer. What do you say?”

OoC: Great a new character limit. Bare with me its been a while sence I was able to post over 6 thousand letters.
Ic:
Cloud looked at Xena and he looks down at the ground his long bangs covering his eyes with a shadow. He then smiles slight and he raises his head up as he fixes his glasseses and he looks at her with a friendly attaudie. And he says "Great. Just follow me. And I'll explain my ideas for taking off these dam ball and chains that the goverment put upon us. " He offers a hand towards Xena to help her off the bench.
Once she was up either though Clouds help or from her own power. He starts to walk towards the Music shop that was in the center of the town next to the angel fountin. And as they walk his fox tail wags from side to side showing a happy mood around the fox type child. He fixes his glasses and he starts to talk about the ideas he has to remove their chains. "Alright to throw out some ideas on how to remove the chains. You frist have to know what your working with. From what I can get these have a DNA reader that reads the possiblity of changes. In outher words the Alice is a DNA change. And from what Im guessing is that the cratiors of the chains are scientist that are fimilar with Alice DNA. Or they could be Ex-students of Alice Academy. I wouldnt be supprised because theres been far stranger things in this school. Kinda like the Anti-Alice organazation that the frist Student Council fought againt. Anyway back to the topic on hand. I think these are nothing more then a big sensor that reads our bodys. And just by picturing that as the problem all we have to do is find a way to trick it. " He stops talking for a secound and he fixes his glasses as he thinks about what hes is going to say next.
As they walk and he thinks the path Cloud leads Xena down starts to become crowded with more and more students as they start to get closer to the center of the town. After walking for a little while longer he stops infront of a shop that has a huge music note for a sign. He opens the door for Xena and follows in after her when she enters. He yells out into the shop "Hey Old man Im here. And I brought a friend so dont worry about me not finishing today. Just go back and countine making your instruments."He then looks at Xena and he walks over to a table that had a violin on it and he grabs it and sits on a bench and he plucks the strings as he says. "Dont worry about the old man. Hes the Schools music teacher and he barely goes to school cause of his age. So I come here and help him out. Anyway counting with our conversation from before...Oh and dont forget to help out. Anyway the best way to get this off is getting help from people who once had the ability to work with there own body. Like shape changing after that we need someone who knows electrionics. Basicly we need a team with indivigials who want to help with the idea. I know im putting alot on you but I have history with the teachers so there going to be watching me. But if someone like you can get this group together then we can get one step closer to freedom..." As he talks he plucks the violin and tunes it and he stops after he is done talking and he runs the bow over the strings and plays a small soft tune. And he smlies and puts it down. He then grabs some wood polish and he wipes it down "If you have anything to say or wonder why someone who once follow the rules would something thing like this. My answer to you is that Im doing this for someone who needs his alice very much to live. " He looks at her and smiles as his fox ears durp down a bit.

The blonde-haired boy glanced at me, before his mismatched hues went down to the earth he’s stepping on, letting his hair cover his eyes. I found his ‘dropping-my-eyes-to-the-ground-or-the-sky’ behavior peculiar, though some of the reasons can be feeling uncomfortable in my presence or having grown up with the attitude.
I haven’t met anyone else who does what he’s doing.
He looks back up and met my gaze, his friendly demeanor not wavering. “Great,” he started. “Just follow me. And I'll explain my ideas for taking off these dam ball and chains that the government put upon us.”
He then offered me a hand to help me remove my a s s from the bench.
…
I suppose I’m being a little harsh with my terms. I’ll start again.
He offered me a hand to help me stand up. I took it, though I didn’t really stand up with his help only, otherwise I would’ve dragged him to the ground. I can be that kind of a pest sometimes, but I won’t be able to help myself if I start doing that for a single reason—I’m too lazy to fix myself.
Anyway, after I let go of the blonde’s hand, he sauntered off to God knows where. I jogged to keep up with him, but once I did, I ambled obediently behind. I watched his back, making it without a doubt hard for me not to notice the wagging of his tail. I found it amusing, oddly. But that was good, too. If I didn’t find it entertaining, I would have laughed my a s s off.
… There I go with my term again. I won’t change it for your sake anymore though. It makes my life easier.
Cloud lifted me from my stupor of watching his wagging tail by beginning to talk about the topic that interested me most that led me to my current situation. “Alright to throw out some ideas on how to remove the chains. You first have to know what your working with,” he said. I thought, I’m working with Alice—nullifying accessories. Is that what he meant?
But thankfully he answered my thoughts as if he read my mind, or if he just couldn’t help hearing me interrupt. “From what I can get these have a DNA reader that reads the possibility of changes. In other words the Alice is a DNA change. And from what I’m guessing is that the creators of the chains are scientists that are familiar with Alice DNA. Or they could be Ex-students of Alice Academy. I wouldn’t be surprised because there’s been far stranger things in this school,” he continued. I was a bit astonished. He knew this much, and he hasn’t been talking with the Valentine boy?
I surely hope Hiei is against the alice—restrictors though. If he wasn’t, I get the feeling that all hope would be lost if we don’t have a mind like his to work with Cloud—
Wait, I couldn’t—shouldn’t—be thinking of him—last time we met, I didn’t have such fond memories I’d like to keep.
“Kind of like the Anti-Alice organization that the first Student Council fought against,” Cloud recalled, but I didn’t know information on that part of council history. “Anyway back to the topic on hand. I think these are nothing more then a big sensor that reads our bodies. And just by picturing that as the problem all we have to do is find a way to trick it.” He stopped speaking. I could only absorb all these information as we walked, and the obvious idea that I might be helping an absolute genius. It’d be embarrassing to get tongue-tied or at loss for words when talking to him.
Keeping my mouth shut seemed to be my only hope.
He led me through the path where more people and robots filled in. One of them bumped me, causing me to stumble a bit to another person, but enough to snap me out of my muted state. I looked around, letting Cloud go ahead, before finally noticing the familiar setting near the center of town.
The center of Central Town—how ironic, it seemed.
I ran to catch up with Cloud, hoping he didn’t notice my temporary absence from behind him. He stopped by a shop that spelled out M-U-S-I-C just as I fell in his steps. I tried to regulate my breathing to pass for normal as he opened the door. I entered, carrying myself in a faltering manner, before crumpling on a vacant chair, trying to catch my breath.
Cloud shouted in the store, talking to someone he referred to as ‘old man.’ I felt him glance at me again, causing me to raise my head in his direction, only to see him get a violin and sit with it in his hands. “Don’t worry about the old man,” he assured me. “He’s the Schools music teacher and he barely goes to school cause of his age. So I come here and help him out. Anyway counting with our conversation from before...Oh and don’t forget to help out. Anyway the best way to get this off is getting help from people who once had the ability to work with there own body. Like shape changing after that we need someone who knows electronics. Basically we need a team with individuals who want to help with the idea. I know I’m putting a lot on you but I have history with the teachers so there going to be watching me. But if someone like you can get this group together then we can get one step closer to freedom...” I nodded, signaling that I understood. I know one who might be able to help us in electronics.
The one and only Mira Jing <3.
I was snapped out of my trance again by Cloud, but this time it was because he was playing the violin. He smiled and placed it down, obviously proud of himself. He got something and started to wipe the instrument. “If you have anything to say or wonder why someone who once follow the rules would something thing like this,” he said, “My answer to you is that I’m doing this for someone who needs his Alice very much to live.” I raised my hands, palms out to him, and shook them in a way where one could understand it as ‘no’ or ‘it’s okay.’ I replied, “We all have our reasons. I have a very good idea on who can help us out with electronic stuff, but the shape-changing alice holder might take a while. Also, the skilled alice holder I'm talking about can be a one-woman team, so I might get someone else to help her.” I carefully got a guitar, strummed once, before noticing it was out of tune. I warily started to tune it.

Cloud stopped wipping the Violin as he listend to Xena speak. He fixes his glasses and he takes the information. Normaly Cloud would just ask his friends to help him do this. But that is impossible because off of his friends are gone. Hiei the school president is no where to be found. And Hime is gone as well. Rage is evil and wants to kill everyone...his own best friend and fellow school defender was no longer. Mike wasn't around now days and Rebecca has dissappered from Clouds life. He lifts his head and looks at a picture off to the side. A picture of him and a bunch of outher students durning Christmas time. And a pure smile appaers on his face.
He snaps back to reality and he fixes his glasses and he coughs and he says " I thank you for your help. I do have outher ideas to get these off. One of the ideas is a last resort but I should tell you. I trust you enough to show you how commited I am to getting back peoples alices. "
He looks at his restictor and he fixes his glasses and he says." My last chance is to cut off my arm and pull the braclet off and use my free hand to remove peoples alices. I controll atoms so doing that is simple. I dont really care if I lose my life in this method but its better for one to die so outers can regain there freedom. " He fixes his glasses as he looks down at his violin and his hair covers his eyes and he goes back to cleaning the violin. What he sad was something grim and dangerious. But it also showed his determantion to helping people. So he looks at Xena and says "I think you for your help today....Um so once were done where do you want to go and eat?"

I listened to Cloud as quietly as I could while tuning the guitar. "--One of the ideas is a last resort but I should tell you. I trust you enough to show you how committed I am to getting back peoples alices." I nodded, finishing the guitar up with a hushed strum. I looked away from the string instrument and to the blonde, letting my gaze settle on him as he continued to speak. "My last chance is to cut off my arm and pull the braclet off and use my free hand to remove peoples alices." My eyes widened, shocked, but I kept shut. "I controll atoms so doing that is simple. I dont really care if I lose my life in this method but its better for one to die so outers can regain there freedom."
Determined and helpful, I see. The foundation of a brave and selfless man...a hero.
I tilted my head to the side, looking at the guitar, before returning it from where I got it. I placed my hands to either side of me, leaning on them as I tried to figure out what to do next. I stared at Cloud's hair, noticing the peculiar style. Hiei's was almost like that, wasn't it? Only it wasn't pink tipped. They must've known each other for a long time... At least, longer than I knew Hiei, seeing that Cloud had once been in the Council with him.
"I think you for your help today....Um so once were done where do you want to go and eat?" Cloud uttered, his eyes hiding behind his hair as he continued on cleaning the instrument he held in his hands. I raised my hand to the back of my head, smiling sheepishly. "Actually, I haven't thought of that yet. I figured lunch was lunch so..." I sighed softly, the smile fading, my hand dropping to my side as I leaned on it once more.
"Japanese food?" I grinned again, but it was one of those unsure smiles that I do when I'm asking for someone's opinion.

Japanese food huh? Good I was thinking that to Was on Clouds mind as she said that. He puts down the violin and looks around. He notices there isn't that much to do today. But then again this was a alternative. The ture reason Cloud was talking to this girl by him self was so he could remove the resticion.....Wait....Cloud was by him self with a girl..Once that though hit him Cloud blushed a bit as his ears drop down. Its been forever sence Cloud talked alone with a girl. Normaly the only girl he ever talked to was Hime and he always saw her as a younger sister. He shakes his head a bit and he looks at her and he says as he coughs.
"Great I was thinking that to....Hey hows Hiei doing? I haven't seen him for a while. Bet he's sneaking about letting you do all the work. Bet hes hard for you to work with...Hes really a nice kid once he lets down his guard. "
Cloud smiles as he remembers the days when he and Hiei trained together and fought for the same things. Yet they were like Yin and Yang. It was obvious in there apparence and there ways of deal things and personalites. Cloud was a blond hair pink tipped boy who was hyper and always jumps the gun on things. While Hiei had black hair with red tips and was always calm and colletive and always looked where he was going to jump too. He once again breaks out of dream world and he looks at Xena and he coughs as he gets up and fixes his glasses. "Sence were done here lets go eat....I know a nice place where we can get some okonomiyaki. " He looks at her and blushes a bit and he hides the redness by looking away and he coughs and says.
"But before we go is there any questions you would like to hear answered. If you want I could tell you about a emberssing story about Hiei. "
He laughs a bit. Cloud, Hime, and Rage are the only people who knows Hieis nice side. So it gave Cloud a advantage on making fun on Hiei. And he enjoyed doing it too.

I looked away from Cloud for a moment, gazing up at the ceiling, just waiting for his voice to drag me back down to his face while the smile on mine wiped away. “Great I was thinking that to...” He said. My eyes dropped back down to meet his. I grinned again, just happy he didn’t dislike Japanese food. “Hey how’s Hiei doing? I haven't seen him for a while. Bet he's sneaking about letting you do all the work. Bet he’s hard for you to work with...He’s really a nice kid once he lets down his guard.”
I laughed a bit at this. Hiei sneaking around? It seemed hard to imagine, though when you do, it’s kind of funny. But when I recalled what Cloud asked a second later, a melancholic smile found its way to my face. “I haven’t seen him for a while.” As an afterthought I added quietly, “I hope he’s okay.” With or without the restrictors, I doubt Hiei would find any trouble in…well, practically anything at all.
Must I admire him that much?
My smile brightened up a little as I looked at Cloud, who was also smiling, but I wasn’t sure at what. I was slightly curious. What could he be thinking? He must’ve noticed me staring at him, for he looked back at me and cleared his throat—or coughed. I didn’t know the difference. He stands up and fixed his glasses, something he did often. “Sence were done here let’s go eat....I know a nice place where we can get some okonomiyaki,” he said. I blinked once, twice, three times. I was speechless for a moment.
What’s an okonomiyaki?
I felt my cheeks redden as I stood up, my gaze feeling settled on the ground. I didn’t know what that was, but it was food. Well, being a foreigner to Japan excuses me from knowing too much, right? I looked up reluctantly to be welcomed by Cloud looking away. He cleared his throat—or coughed—again, before speaking.
“But before we go is there any questions you would like to hear answered. If you want I could tell you about a emberssing story about Hiei.” He laughed slightly.
Oooh.
He’s got some embarrassing moments too?
I smiled brightly. “I’d like to hear about that story,” I said, before walking to Cloud’s side and gesturing to the door. “Mind to tell it while we’re walking?”

Cloud gets up and he smiles just then his ears twitches as he hears a light ring from his pocket. And he pulls out a cell phone and he looks at it and fixes his glasses. He looks at Xena with a serious face and he sighs and he says " I guess our lunch date will have to wait.....I have some things to take care of...Just try your best. If you can't then I shall take over. As for the funny story about Hiei....Lets just say pink hair suits me better. " He smiles and turns around and walks out the door. Cloud planted the seeds of his ideas and outher peoples hopes. Now all he could do is pray that it grows into a bright future.

I looked quizzically at Cloud’s pocket as it emitted a chime that I would recognize to be from a cellular phone. His hand fished out the item, before he studies it. Must be a text message, I thought. Patiently I looked around the store, shifting my weight from right to left, wondering who could’ve sent him a message and why. I felt his gaze upon me once again, making me turn my eyes immediately at him to see the friendly smile on his face wiped away.
He sighed, as if he was upset, before uttering, “I guess our lunch date will have to wait.” I looked down, disappointed. “Oh.” Not the type to whine and complain, especially to some guy I just met earlier, I snapped my fingers as if we were out of luck. But as I continued to listen yet inwardly sigh, Cloud said something to fill in the place of the story about Valentine.
“Pink hair suits me better.”
He smiled again and turned on his heel, sauntering out of the store, leaving me staring at the door, puzzled and a bit confused on what he said. But then again, it was usual for me not to understand everything. I know to expect not to understand. I sighed, starting to chuckle, before I threw my head back and laughed jovially.
What a day…time to pack the bag now.
I ambled casually out of the store myself, looking left before right, seeing the same growing crowd around me, before moving through the sea of people, bumping, squeezing, and apologizing.
I made my way back to the bench, where my sign still held its head up high. I looked at it and once more sighed. Disappointed. I guess that 500 Rabbits I spent wasn’t going to grow sooner. I snatched the sign, folding it with its legs tuckered behind its face, before going to the cafeteria, getting lunch myself, and finally, back to the female dormitory.
In my room, relaxing for tomorrow and the next after, when days like this could come again.
ooc: End.[?]
