Generation Legacy (Issue #4)

Who didn't see this one coming? "Um, sorry... Arafina. I'm, uh, kinda taken."

Arafina pouts slightly, "Taken?" she says curiously, "Are you sure," she says coyly, slightly biting her lip, trying to play up her more visual charms, she looks up at him, "I really want to go, and I really want to go with you. I mean," she says shyly, "I guess, I just missed my chance," she looks heartbroken.

Her two friends seeing that the conversation is not going the way they had though glance over with curiosity, talking amongst themselves, as Arafina tries to put on a smile, but you can see the dissapointment in her eyes.

"Yeah, that Chaos kid was a little brat. Who exactly do you think he was? Just some loser, elite-crazed hacker like Tommy, but without a conscience? Not that Tommy is all that sane, or even moral. Star's okay and all, but she's kind of illegal.

Ryan then sits carefully upon the chair next to Anika's desk. "Well, that fight wasn't too bad. Not as bad as either the mall or the wildlife preserve. No guns or killings. How many people have I killed. Two? Three? Four? Jun Min almost died. Cassandra almost died. John almost died? I almost surrendered. Am I forgetting anything? Funny how little you remember about such important events. Some people affiliated with the dictator Adaba Adin are trying to kidnap me for purposes I don't know. I think the faculty might, and Cassandra knows more than she lets on. The mall fight wasn't too bad, but the fight at the preserve...that was nasty. A lot of blood, many people were nearly killed, a few guys on the other side were killed. Not pretty. But that's over with," Ryan finishes, now smiling. Not yet it isn't. But you don't need to worry about that now. Just enjoy yourself and live your life, for the time being.

While Anika and Ryan talk...

As the conversation continues, another news broadcast pops up, sports, focusing on the local football game, soccer for the less cultured, and it shows the current scores, the Mudaba Adin Lions is putting a beating on the Cairo Warriors, with a current score of 3 to 1. As the camera images pass through the crowd, it settles on a local celebrity, Billy,, and with that shot they see James and Isabelle, on the screen.

The newscaster excitedly blurts out the name of the elite teen hero, Paladin, and his mystery date. It is a brief blurb before it returns to more international sports news, and scores.

OOC: For James he had no idea he was on camera, and this happened just before his current scene for continuity's sake.... whatever that is.

"So let me get this straight," she says, "I bet you still don't have a date, and time is running out, but maybe dances are not your thing. They aren't mine either, but everyone else will be, so I figure why not right?" she says with a shrug, "Or is it that you really want to go with me, and you were not joking back there?" she says mentally.

"Yeah, I don't have a date for the dance yet. You're right, dances really aren't my thing. And yes, I wasn't joking back there. I would really love to go to the dance with you on my arm. But I'm not really sure I'm going to go yet."

"Well you are nice, and your cute, but..." she pauses, thinking, "I mean I am with Jimmy you know it isn't just like, well we have been together forawhile. I don't know it isn't like I wouldn't go with you, you are a nice guy."

Sarah places her hand on his shoulder, "Just complicated right?" she manages a weak smile, "I like you, your a great guy, and we get along, just right now, I don't know, you understand? I guess I am not altogether sure myself."

"Yeah, I understand," John says, smiling at her and continues walking with her.

 

[Tokiwong]

"Yeah, I understand," John says, smiling at her and continues walking with her.

"Right," she gives him a kiss on the cheek, "so anyways, did I tell you that Isabelle and Billy snuck off campus, I guess Billy got some tickets, to the football game, and football is an easy way to that girl's heart."

Sarah continues walking, and then finds a nice shady spot, and sits under a tree, patting for John to sit next to her, she looks up at the sky, it is clear, and blue, with a faint smattering of white streaky clouds across the sky.

"So why were you crying," she thinks to John, as she looks up at the sky, allowing a soft silence between them, as thier mental conversation begins. She continues looking upward, "I didn't want to bring it up before, but it has been gnawing at me, and I am just wondering. I mean if it is personal then I understand, but if you need someone to talk to, then I am here."

 

[Aust Meliamne]

"I appreciate that, Sarah. Yeah. I got a package from my mom with a letter in it saying to call her. So I did. She said that my dad had been killed in an anti-elite terrorist bombing. The funeral is next week."

Cassie jumps at the video message and replies. "Oh sorry Yoshi, I sort of have some things on my mind." leans back, thinking on what she knows.

"I could use someone to talk to." she says back to him. "I don't suppose we could talk..maybe go out in town and do it somewhere private?" glances around, realizing how 'wired' the school is for the first time.

*POOF!*

Yoshi is gone from the screen, three seconds later, the door swings open, and shuts, and sitting on the desk next to her is Yoshi, he grins, "If you need to sneak out, I think I have a way, but you got to trust me, alright?" he whispers, "we Tadaji were ninja back in the day... not really but it sounds cool."
