New Generation Legacy, Issue 1: Back to School

Emmet stays quiet while Cody, Jerry, and Raph talk and laugh at their own jokes. In the cafeteria line, he grabs a chicken sandwich and chips. "By the way, Jerry, have you met a Jiong Mao Li from Quanzhao? He is my new roommate. Cody is residing with some guy called Jonathan Mayors."

"I think after lunch I am going to my room and try to settle in a small amount, hopefully meet my new roommate. Any idea what there is to do around here? We could head into the city, widen the circle of our explorations."

As Clover enters her room, the bathroom door is closed and the shower is running, though not for long. The water turns off and she can here someone moving around in the room. A very nice white dress is lying on the bed next to her roommate's luggage.

"Good idea," Clover mutters, and then pulls a skirt, underwear, and a 3/4ths sleeve blue top out out of her luggage trunks. She lays the clothes out on her bed, and then starts to unpack her other clothes into the dresser's and closets provided on her side of the room.

"Hello in there. I'm Clover." the red head calls out in french as she works depositing her things. She pulls out a decorative wooden stand for her swords, and a light weight human frame that she slips her work out outfit onto so that it can air out. She places the frame in the corner and then puts the sword display on the ground in front of it slipping the practice swords and real swords into their respective slots.

She places the frame in the corner and then puts the sword display on the ground in front of it slipping the practice swords and real swords into their respective slots.

There's a slight pause before someone responds, switching back and forth between French and English. "Ah, oui, bonjour," a female voice says from the bathroom. "I am Josee. Clover, you are from England, no? Tu parlez francais, excellent. Why we must share a room when so many are open, I do not know, but I think...oh." The girl steps out of the bathroom wearing one towel around her body and another around her head. "Those are swords? They are yours?" she asks watching Clover sort the collection.
 

"Bonjour, je suis heureux de vous rencontrer Josée" Clover says, telling Josee she was pleased to meet her. "Oui, ce sont mes épées", yes, the swords were hers, the red head agrees, and then asks in which language Josee wants to speak. "Voulez-vous parler, en anglais, en français ou en allemand?"

"Merci, j'ai appris mon français en France et en Belgique sur holdiay." the british girl said, thanking her roommate for the compliment on her French. "Oui, je suis britannique, Ma famille vit dans Baronnie Dinorben, Kinmel sur la succession. Mon père est l'actuel baron." Clover tells Josee, since it appears that Josee is likely to put a lot of stock into such a thing and she wants to start off on the right foot with her.

"Most people here do not speak French, or recognizable French." Clover says, switching to English. "I just had a work out with some of the girls that I met at the ceremony. We are going to be meeting up in 10 or 15 minutes and heading to the cafeteria if you wish to join us, you would be most welcome. For now though, I must get ready." the red head said with an encouraging smile.

Clover gathered her toilette and entered the bathroom. She took off her towel and left it sitting on the toilet seat cover, close enough to be in easy reach of the shower without spilling water on the floor. Aftr she gets into the shower, she turns the nozzle to hot water, as hot as it can be, and then lathers herself up on oneside, and then the other as the the water washes away the soap on the first. Next she spends a few minutes luxuriating in the scent of her natural lavendar shampoo.

Finally Clover finishes up and turns the shower off. Drying herself, she moves over to the sink and washes her face. Once she is done with her face, she pulls her wet hair into a ponytail and emerges from the bathroom. Letting her tower drop, she quickly pulls on her undies and bra and then the skirt and top, and then pulls on a pair of sandals that she'd brought out of her trunk. "How do I look?" she asks her roommate, twirling in plae so Josee could see all of the outfit.
 

Emmet stays quiet while Cody, Jerry, and Raph talk and laugh at their own jokes. In the cafeteria line, he grabs a chicken sandwich and chips. "By the way, Jerry, have you met a Jiong Mao Li from Quanzhao? He is my new roommate. Cody is residing with some guy called Jonathan Mayors."

"I met Jiong. Seemed like a nice enough guy. Never saw any Jonathan."

"I think after lunch I am going to my room and try to settle in a small amount, hopefully meet my new roommate. Any idea what there is to do around here? We could head into the city, widen the circle of our explorations."

"There's a perfectly good pool," Jerry smiled.
 

Trilly:

As Trilly gets to her room, she also hears someone in the bathroom. Stacy soon walks out wearing a towel, stopping in surprise. "Oh, hey you," she says with a smile.

"Um, I'm kinda embarrassed," she admits, sitting down on her bed. "My reaction was, like, totally dumb back there, sorry. You're good people, Trill, we'll be BFFs for sure," she adds with a grin.


Clover:

"Un baron?" Josee says, looking rather impressed. "Yes, yes, it is best to speak English here more. But it is nice to have someone to speak French with," she adds with a smile. "Yes, some lunch would be fantastic, the airline food left much to be desired."

When Clover comes back out of the bathroom, Josee is sitting in front of a mirror, finishing up with a bit of make up and mussing with her long black hair. She wears a light colored blouse and skirt, white high heals beside her chair.

She turns to look at Clover as she spins. "That is nice. You must tell me where you shop, I go shopping in London once a month...or I did. I wonder what sort of shopping they have here?" she asks, her tone betraying her lack of optimism.

She turns back to the mirror and sighs. "That will have to do, I shorted out my hair dryer once more." She grabs her shoes and puts them on. "Dr. Hudabo tells me, 'you have a gift.' I would like to know where this gift came from so I can return it," she jokes.


Cody, Emmet, Jerry:

"Well..." Manjit says, thinking, "the brochure said there are parks, malls, a zoo, and then there's the old city. Lots of authentic Italian restaurants here...though I doubt anyone's hungry anymore."

"Ahphahphan phipha?" Raph says, her mouth completely full. She immediately looks embarrassed, chews some more, swallows, and repeats, "Italian pizza, really? Oh...we really need to try that!"


Nick:

"Well, then I can help you with your school work, I was getting As back in Cairo...you're on your own with your English, though," she thinks, smiling.

Yoshi grins, rubbing his hands, "You kidding me, man, we are going to own this place."

Mimic, nothings happening at John's room, he can join the cafeteria whenever.
 

Cody smiles at the pool comment, getting a nice mental picture of what could go on there. That would be overindulgent right now, though he thinks, somewhat sadly.

"My stomach's kind of full so I'm not up for swimming just yet. How about we take Emmet's plan and explore the city tonight and if you're up for it, we can take a field trip to the Red Sea tomorrow?" Cody offers, hoping that will satisfy the surfer and everyone else.

"I guess I can hold off on getting wet again for a few hours," Jerry smiled.
 

Nick thinks, not so much to Layla but she probably picks it up anyway, I guess this place is isn’t that bad; cool people so far besides the Ice Queen and chances are we probably just caught her at a bad time. I am going to give her the benefit of the doubt, at least for the moment. Yoshi isn’t bad, I could hang with him… Layla is cool and smart; a nice combo. Yeah I think I can handle this place.

“Own this place, that might be a little premature,” Nick smirks, “but I like the idea dude. If you will excuse me…”

Nick slides from his current position to the table with Manjit, Emmet, and crew. He comes to rest sitting in an open spot next to Jerry. The air ripples slightly from his bending of time and space. Nick flashes his killer smile catching the last bit about seeing the town, “Hell yeah, going out on the town… I can get behind that. Name’s Nick I would hate to invite myself, but I am not passing up a chance to see what this city has to offer.”

He thinks back to Layla, These guys might be going downtown tonight, want to go?
 

After a quick shower John was in a slightly better mood then when he had left the weight room, although he would have been more then happy to go a few rounds with the Asian kid, although he had a sneaking feeling that he would be on the losing end of that showdown, not that it mattered it wouldn't be the first time he lost a fight he started and certainly wouldn't be the last. He just couldn't afford to get kicked out of school, he wouldn't exactly be welcomed home with open arms, at least that is what his father implied, family comes first, was something that was ingrained into him from pretty much birth and having someone like him around just wouldn't do.

He was fairly certain that he definately didn't fit in here, this place was way to liberal for him but it wasn't like he had a choice in the matter, although when he turned 18 he could always leave. So for now it was here or nowhere, so it looked like the choice was clear, he had to endure it, at least for now.

It was with these thoughts that John entered the cafeteria, he quickly glances around before heading towards the buffet line, grabbing a couple of burgers and fries and heading towards an empty table.
