April 9th

April 9th, 2012, early

It was a humid morning, and only the second week of school. A fine mist of rain clouded the sky, doing nothing against the damp heat that had invaded Eizou Academy’s campus. Beyond the misty and annoying weather, it was also irritatingly early! Students milled about from the main gates, slowly heading towards their campus buildings (it could be quite a walk, most had to arrive a wee bit early). Umbrella’s seemed to do nothing against the rain, but staff and students alike tried to use them regardless.

A scream sounded out, from the cluster of buildings that all the elementary and junior high students were headed toward. It was quite a distance away from the Highschool section, and the clouds and mist dulled the sound. Sirens, blaring through the morning air, pierced the quiet created by the mist. Where were those headed?

That exact thought filtered though Miho Tanaka’s head fifteen minutes later. She could see flashing lights of a police car, and probably an ambulance, from out of the front door’s of the Highschool building. The light filtered through the thickening mist, as the rain started to gradually turn into a downpour. The school seemed eerily quiet, and everyone’s attention seemed to be drifting out toward the elementary buildings. What happened?

Two girls entered, whispering in low fast voices to one another.

“Did you hear? A teacher jumped.”

“I heard she was pushed! The impact broke her neck.”

“I heard she splattered all over the concrete…”

“But we still have to go to class today? Jeez!”

"Mouu, I bet everyone in junior high will get the day off today. This is so unfair.."


Miho frowned slightly at the passing conversation, gaze drifting from the two gossiping girls out towards the lights in the distance. A jumper, huh…?

((NOTE: About half an hour after this initial post, the PA system comes on - everyone is informed they get the day off.))

"I'm goo--..!" He'd almost managed to finish when something large but thankfully soft smacked into his head. Greg nearly did an odd and corkscrewy backflip, landing on his side, and then groaned again. "It's me..! It's, uugh..." Greg rose to his knees and had almost reached his feet when there was an odd creak behind him from the end of the hall. He knew there was a door there, and it sounded an awful lot like a door opening just a bit. The boy didn't really want to turn around, though! He blinked several times, eyes locked down the opposite way toward what he hoped was freedom... It was at least company, because the other two were that way!

Gregory stood up and then bolted, not looking back even once, then leapt over the back of the damned couch to land in a seat beside Miho with his heart thumping. "It wasn't the breaker!" Cough.

“Tanaka, don't -” The older girl hadn't spoken fast enough. She watched, blank-faced as ever, as her housemate tossed a cushion at the 'strange form' Seung Mi knew to be Gregory. With a little sigh, she stood there and waited for realization to kick in for Miho. But then, another surprise for the night, their towel-clad guest ran and jumped into a seat on the couch (which now lacked a cushion, thanks to Miho).

“Well.” She blinked, not bothering to question, “Maybe it'll be resolved in the morning.”

Greg blinked when the lights started to flicker again, and he couldn't help but sigh with slight relief when they all came back on. He glanced down the hall he'd come from out of curiosity alone, but found the door he swore he'd heard open up neatly closed and apparently undisturbed. Maybe it was the fear getting to him? Ehheh. "Things acting, uh... Weird tonight, huh?"
