(Time skip soon?)

Jail

Chloe blinked as her father left in a puff of smoke. She decided not to question instead turning back to Lance and taking his hand. "See I knew I could handle this! My dad is pretty good when it comes to getting me out of trouble"

(As soon as the Ras and Lily stuff is done)

[Jail]

Lance rubbed his neck. He was fairly certain that Pepper liked him even less than he previously did… and he found Pepper’s sudden exit extremely suspicious.

“Yeah… I think your dad thinks I’m trouble.” Lance sighed. He WAS grateful that he wouldn’t have a jail record, but he was still suspicious.

Ras shook his head.

"My parents didn't send me anywhere. They wanted me to go to the Devil's Academy in the second Circle. I didn't want to go, and Asmodai decided to take over from there. Azie is... Well, very independent at times, and she decided to give me an opening to go where I want. I chose the furthest place I could apply in, and that's Kubo."

He shrugged.

"I might have ended up in one of the angelic academies if... Well, if not for the entire enmity between races thing. I would NOT have been welcome in that place, and probably would be dead within a week, power accessibility or no."

He shrugged, kicking back and lying down on the growing grass, one leg throwing over the other as he relaxed.

"I like Kubo though. It's... Diverse. It's a place I have gained friends in, not enemies and rivals. I like the way things are done here: there is no rigid, lethal structuring, and the classes end up being rather sporadic and chaotic. It's... Much better than the militaristic rigidity in the Devil Academy."

He turned his head to look at Lily.

"What about you? Why didn't you end up in the Angelic school? Your dad's choice?"

“Going to Kubo just made sense,” Lily answered, “My father had me privately tutored for some time, but he was working at Kubo. I told him I'd like to try actual school, and we decided Kubo would be the best choice. It's one of, if not the best, school on the various realms. Plus he knew the staff there, and could make sure I was put into the appropriate grade, since I was older then the Red students.”

Lily laid down in the grass now, next to Ras, “I could have gone to an Angel school...But I would have been a lot more alone there then here...And besides...Father told me that this village wasn't just Angels. There were Shinigami, Oni, and even a couple Youkai here...”

She stared up at the clouds, trying to find a shape in them, “And besides...if I had gone somewhere else, I wouldn't have met you.”

A slight smile from the girl, knowing what she said was cheesy.

Well, she is Galv's sister in other universes.

Ras couldn't help but chuckle a little.

"Lily, that was a little too much cheese, I think. Still... You're right. If you went elsewhere, we wouldn't have met, and I probably wouldn't be here. Thank you for being a friend, Lily. I doubt I would have done nearly as well with only hostile and estranged glares in the school."

While he spoke, however, a shudder ran down his back as he sensed... Something. Something off, and immediately he released his magic and let it "probe" around him. He didn't actually look like he was doing anything either, and in fact picked a flower from a little distance away, but...

But his magic found something. Gallic's signature was all over the place, and something was off about it.

For a moment, he wondered if this was the best time to do this. He was here with Lily on an outing that was a relatively rare thing, and she shared something so important with him. Could he really afford to be distracted like this? But then, the sense of wrongness came back to him, and he knew that he HAD to check it out.

With a little whispered incantation, a scanning spell began to analyze the signatures in the area. Life has long since been erased here, at least the civilized sort of life, but Gallic's presence was overpowering. It was as if the man had caused wide-scale destruction here, and in a very uncoordinated way.

And that immediately made Ras's hackles rise. If there was a beast, there would have been coordination of some sort for this sort of destruction. Trails following a run, a defensive spell to protect himself... But none of that was present. It was simply a very surgical sort of destruction, almost as if it targeted the town in particula-...

Wait.

With another feel over the area with the analysis spell, Ras finally found the focal point. It wasn't in the center, but it was at a point where the entire town could be easily seen. And... Gallic stood there. He didn't move. He didn't defend himself. The man simply stood there and continued to cast spells. If a beast was attacking, if a monster was truly here, Gallic had to have moved at some point to protect either himself or others.

Ras blinked, returning to the real world with a small shudder. That couldn't be right! Gallic was Lily's father, what reason would he have to cause such destruction if there was no monster involved? Or was he missing something? Could Gallic have made himself somehow invisible to the monster and attacked from a position of strength? That theory COULD hold, but Ras couldn't be sure anymore. Something stunk here.

~I see you noticed, Rasher. I was wondering when you would.~

The sudden familiar voice in his head almost made Ras jump.

"Azie! Didn't I tell you to stop doing that?"

The voice in his head giggled with mischief. While she herself was not the sort of prankster that Lavan was, she did enjoy thumbing her nose at others, and she often did little, sneaky pranks of her own. It was one of the reasons Ras was so well-versed in staying alert, keeping himself unpranked... And the reason for quite a bit of his paranoia.

~Looks like Gallic wasn't exactly being truthful about what happened here. What will you do, Ras? What's your move now, hmm?~

Ras was almost tempted to simply say that he'd tell Lily, but then he stopped. What if he was wrong? What if Gallic did have a reason? What if all of this was a mistake? He'd estrange the only female friend he had, and that wasn't something he was willing to do. But what COULD he do? Confronting Gallic was an option, but Gallic was too powerful. If Ras ended up being in trouble, no one would save him.

He had to come back here later, to this little town. He also needed to find that spell that he had read about, one that allowed him to use a magical kind of psychometry. He needed to see what happened here with his own eyes, and only specified divination spells could do so.

He had a book to browse.

Finally, he came out of his little trance, and sheepishly looked over at Lily.

"I'm sorry about that. I thought I sensed something nasty around, so I ran a quick analysis spell. I didn't find anything though, so it must have just been my imagination."

He didn't like to lie. But now, when truth would be taken for a lie, he had to. HE just hoped that this was not going to last for too long...

THE NEXT DAY

[Main Dining Hall]

Connor was sitting at one of the tables with his breakfast in front of him. He had not touched it. The cereal was soggy, the apple was turning brown and the milk was becoming room temp – but Connor ignored his food going to waste.

He was more nervous than he had ever been. Even meeting Genius, or in his first kiss with Sarai, Connor had not been THIS nervous. This morning, in just a few minutes, he would actually be meeting his parents.

The boy’s entire body was shaking. He was dressed in his nicest clothes, and he had combed his hair for once… though he still had his goggles on his head. The boy was shivering, terrified of this prospect. To learn his parents were alive and living in another dimension doing some secret project or the President was all very… very strange.

[Kubo Grounds]

Out on the grounds, lying on her elbows on one of the hills overlooking the hedge maze, was Nanami Nomura. She was as grumpy as ever. Sure, she had forgiven Lavan – sorta – but that didn’t mean she wasn’t still mad.

She’s complicated.

To make things worse, she had gotten a call this morning from one of the Mafioso’s who worked for her father, saying that someone was coming to the school to talk to her.

She hated anything having to do with her father’s business, and didn’t want to talk to someone from the mob.

[Pepper’s Office]

Pepper was standing in his office with a gleam in his eyes. If the intelligent he had received was correct… then this could end up being a great day…

Main Dining Hall

"G-Good morning"

Sarai had walked up to Connor's table when he was fazing out, holding a tray of cereal and a banana. She was wearing a simple white sundress, too self-conscious to wear anything flashier. Her long hair was curled around her face and she had a tiny bit of make up on. While this day was about Connor she wanted to at least make sure her boyfriend's parents could tolerate her.

Sarai took a seat next to the boy and eyed his breakfast....It looked...Stale. To say the least. She started cutting up her banana and offered him a piece. "You should try to eat something" she told him softly, placing her other hand on his shoulder.

[...]

In her own spot Chloe was busy eating breakfast and....Thinking.

The girl was suspicious....He dad had acted very strange last night and when she tried to visit him earlier this morning his office was locked. She supposed that she should count herself lucky, as she didn't end up in trouble for trespassing and probably drinking something she shouldn't have (which caused her to wake up this morning with a headache)...But she still couldn't help but to be curious.

Chloe shrugged to herself, taking a large bite of a doughnut and a sip of soda before standing up and stretching.

Connor was shaken out of his quiet brooding when he heard Sarai’s voice. He jumped a little, and looked up at her… and then he smiled and felt a bit less nervous. When Sarai sat down next to him, Connor rubbed his neck.

“Oh… I was going to eat, but…” He looked down at his food, noticing it was pretty much ruined. He had been sitting here in thought for almost twenty minutes. He took the sliced banana from Sarai and ate it, but he could barely swallow he was so nervous.

“I don’t have much of an appetite today…” He paused, now looking at her. “O-Oh… Sarai, you look really beautiful today.”

[…]

Lance was hanging around at the door of the Dining Hall, not quite ready to go in. He was pacing back and forth, biting on his lip.

Last night had been… intense. First he snuck into a night club with his girlfriend, then they had been arrested, and then Chloe’s very scary father had gotten them out of trouble.

Now, Lance was grateful to Pepper… his biggest goal in life was to be the best Reaper he could, and getting arrested would definitely jeopardize that… but at the same time, every encounter he had with Pepper left Lance feeling unsettled.

There was just something about him that made Lance feel… uncomfortable. And not just because Pepper was assuming that Lance was being a bad influence on Chloe. Lance didn’t know what it was, but Pepper worried him more than Chloe.

He sighed, and came into the room, walking over to Chloe.

“Hey. How you doing?” He asked.

"T-Thank you" Sarai answered, blinking as she looked back down at her dress. "Hopefully your parents will like me...A little more than mine like you."

Of course that wasn't Connor's fault. Sarai's parents were....Well they were psychos to say the least.

She then looked back to Connor, trying to give him a reassuring smile. She could see how tired he was. "You didn't get any sleep did you?" she asked, taking a tiny bite of cereal. "Don't worry, they're going to love you"

[...]

Chloe looked over as Lance approached her, the girl giving a smile and running a hand through her short hair. She was just wearing her usual uniform today, she was much too distracted to pick out a crazy outfit.

"Morning miho, recovered from last night?" she asked, knowing the boy was certainly out of his element last night.

Connor smiled at Sarai and took her hand. He wasn’t sure about anything, but somehow he instinctively wanted to tell her that everything would be okay.

“I… no, I couldn’t sleep. I’m going crazy… I… my mom sounded so nice on the phone, but… I still don’t understand why they’ve never reached out to me before.”

Connor frowned, looking up to her. “I hope you’re right.”

[…]

Lance sighed, rubbing his neck and sitting down next to her.

“I think so… but Chloe, last night was pretty crazy.” Lance had a feeling she already knew he wasn’t all that happy about ending up in jail.

"I'm sure she had some reason...And you'll find out what it is today" Sarai said softly, leaning against his arm. "How about head out, the fresh air will do you g-good"

[...]

"Of course it was crazy, most fun things are" Chloe said with a shrug as she wiped her hands on her skirt. "Hey you think I could get a pair of your pants? Wearing the girl's uniform is so overrated."

Yes, she was changing the subject. She didn't want Lance to linger too long on the fact that she was a crappy girlfriend.

Connor smiled. He was still paranoid about what was happening today, and still unsure about his parents – but having Sarai lean against him made his heart flutter in a way that made it impossible to stay worried.

“Okay. Let’s go on outside.” Connor smiled.

[…]

Lance just had to blink. The only knowledge he had on what to expect from dating was from books and TV shows, and from hearing about other students… but he had never really expected Chloe to want to borrow his clothes.

“Um… sure.” Lance said, rubbing his neck. “I have some in my dorm.”

Sarai nodded softly, taking Connor by the hand and leading him outside. She still did her best to avoid any looks from other students, but being with her boyfriend made her feel just a bit better about being in public.

Once outside she moved closer to the boy, taking his arm with a shaky hand...For once he was actually shaking as much as she was. He was nervous. You don't have to be nervous." she told him.

[...]

"Good! How about we go there. Right now" Chloe said, taking his arm and pulling him out of the dining hall and down the hallway. For once Chloe didn't want to go to his room to make bad decisions. She actually wanted a place she could talk to him privately.

Connor looked over to her and smiled a little. He interlaced his fingers with hers and looked down at their hands.

“I wish I could be brave, or even calm… but I can’t right now. I have so many questions…” He shook his head.

[…]

Lance blinked. She was waaaaay too eager to get into his bedroom… and he was suddenly very nervous. He let out a small sigh and nodded.

“… Okay, I guess we can, sure.”

Outside

"Why don't we go right now" Sarai said, pulling out her phone to check the time. They would be a bit early..."It'll give you a bit of time to compose yourself, and you can practice all your questions on m-me"

Hallways

Chloe followed Lance to his room, gaining a few strange glares from guys on the hall who were still getting ready for the day and rushing out to classes. She was here rather early after all.

"Your roomies are all gone right?" she asked casually.
