University. The greatest time of most peoples lives, the pinnicle of youthful dreams and the stepping stone into the grown-up world. Here, they are treated as mini-adults, they mingle with the brightest and the most eccentric, and above all, they learn the craft they have chosen and find out wither they love or loathe it.

The enrolement week had taken place in The University of Astrableu, and the first day of the new semester had started. Although the students were just arriving on campus, the teachers were already there, the cleaners were already buffering the floor in readiness for the arriving thundering feet, and the technicians were setting up apparatus in preparation for the budding new scientists.

Some 3rd and 4th year students were enrolled in order to serve as stewards to make sure that the first years got to the right room for the right subject, or if they didn't know, at least directed them to at least the right building and floor. Most were being helpful, one or two were taking a cruel delight in sending the new students to the wrong place.
The new student had been given explicit instuctions as to how to get to his class, so that wouldn't be a problem on his first big day ...

Kenshiro walks down the corridor sighing. It was not like him to get lost like this.

Kenshiro looked at the map of the science building for the 100th time, hoping that he was closer to his class. A glance of his watch told him he didn't have much time until classes began. Sighing again he continued his search.

"Hopefully I will find my class soon, or run into someone"

Just as he said that he noticed a girl a walking up head of him, Kenshiro ran up to her asked her if she could help him. He followed her and finally came to his class with seconds to spare.

He was just in the nick of time, as the tutor had already arrived, set up, and was just shuffling the papers on his desk in readiness to teach the first hour of the first day of the first academic year in these students lives.
Already he could tell that they were all hyper, like overgrown little children, and he would certainly shock them into both quiet and study mode.

There was one seat left for Kenshiro to take and it was next to a girl with long black hair and thick black-rimmed glasses. She didn't really look up when he took his seat, she was too busy taking out a pen and opening her notebook in readiness for the first lesson. She had already been warned that this tutor was rather strict and didn't have the courtsy of putting his lecture slides up online, and as such, one had to make their notes while they were sitting in the class or get no notes at all.

[Sakura_Hikizaki]

Kenshiro took out his out his laptop out of his bag and set it up, ready to take notes. He preferred using a computer to writing by hand; it was much easier to keep track of notes. He could separate all his class notes in to folders, and since it was automatically dated it saved a lot of trouble. Also the trouble of carrying multiply notebooks eliminated. He did occasionally use a paper, but that was only if there was no other choice.

Now that he was settled in, he glanced to his side and took a closer look at the girl who had helped him.

"Now that I think about it, I didn't even ask her name" He thought to himself. He was brought out of his thoughts by the clearing of the professor’s throat. Soon the lecture started, and he was busied with taking the lesson down.

[Lady Kakata]

The girl didn't think that it was too big a deal apparently, since she didn't really notice him sitting right next to her. She had been getting a soda out of the vending machine when Kenshiro hurridly asked him for directions and bolted off. Fair enough he was in a hurry, but he was rushing off as though his life depended on being there first.

Oh, well, she didn't think much more about it and right now she was in the midst of filling her black glittery notebook with her precise handwriting, her left hand opening the ringpull on her soda and putting it to her mouth as the right one continued to write.

This introductory lecture was a double lecture, and as such, the tutor granted everyone a rest break at the end of the first hour to let people get some coffee, go to the bathroom, stretch their legs or otherwise simply catch a breather before the second hour started. Some sheets were being passed round detailing the module structure, the exam and laborotory dates, and of course the all important reading list.
The girl put down her pen and stretched in her seat, pulling out her cellphone and sending a quick text to someone before slipping it back into her pocket and taking a relaxing sip of her soda. She was an attractive girl, slightly gothic looking with her sheer black hair that hung in a perfect curtain, and her thick-rimmed black glasses. The eyes behind them were a bright green, giving her pale complexion a different hue that took it away from 'Goth' and more into 'academically attractive'. She didn't really seem to notice anyone or want to talk to anyone (hinting that she didn't have pre-made friends in this class), instead busying herself with reading one of the handouts that had been passed around

[Sakura_Hikizaki]

Kenshiro gathered the notes that were being passed around during the beaks. He got up and stretched. He was not used to being seated for long periods of time. Coming from high school where classes were under and hour, it was going to take sometime getting use to this. Kenshrio turned to his computer again and began double checking his working, and filling in missing information on the today lecture. It was habit that he had, to make sure nothing was missing. Kenshiro brushed his bangs out his eyes as he continued to work.

He didn’t have anyone to ask for information if it missed him. Being a bit anti-social came with many negatives. But also it wasn’t like he was in a hurry to have friends. As past incidents in his life involved apparent close friends betraying him. He didn’t mind being aloof and alone…most of time. For him the less people he interacted with, the likely chance of being hurt again reduce.

So he was forced to pay extra attention. Also it didn’t help that the professor was a bit old fashion, as to not being bothered to put lecture notes online. Soon the class resumed, and Kenshiro once again began keeping up with the professor’s lesson.

"There will be a TEST at the end of the week so be prepared" The tutor glared at his class as they looked at him in a collective 'WTF?' moment, before the bell rang and they were expected to pack up and get out before the next class came in
Suitably rattled by how stark University life was, everyone gathered their senses and their paperwork and started to head towards the door. The black-haired girl did the same, putting everything in her black denium backpack before heading towards the door to get to the next class

[Sakura_Hikizaki]

A test at the end week eh? Kenshiro thought. Well it’s to be expected. He thought as he exited the class. He noticed the girl who had helped him earlier walking away. Kenshiro took out his class list one more time to check again. At least this time his next class wasn’t too far. So chances of a repeat of the moring went down. By tomorrow I shouldn’t be having trouble like this. He thought. Kenshiro started for his next class. Secretly wishing that the next professor won’t dump a test on them.

[Lady Kakata]

This was a more laboratory-ish enviroment, with everyone sitting at benches facing the front of the glass and every surface, not to mention the walls, was white. the only colour in the room was from the dark brown huge jug-bottles of chemicals (disturbingly, these weren't labelled but plastered with warnings about not to touch them) and from the bright green of the waxy-leafed plants that hogged all space along the vast windowsill of the tall windows

And the professor was an odd creature too. Thin with a heart-shaped face and thick glasses, and obviously synthetically bright-red wavy hair, she flickered through the pages of her notes with her long, elegant fingertips as she walked into class, her black heels making a distinct clacking noise on the smooth, white linolium floor
"Everyone, grab a partner" She said, not looking at the class itself, setting her heavy books on the desk

[Sakura_Hikizaki]

Kenshiro walked into class, and noticed that most of the seats where token. He looked around and noticed a seat available. It was near the window. Occupied by the girl he met earlier. It seemed that the seat beside her was empty he went over and sat down. As he was sitting down and getting ready. The professor came in, and announced that there will be a lab today and to get yourselves ready. He looked over to the girl next to him and asked “Umm…do you want to work together?"
