A brand new group is on the making, The Apostles, a Pillar-like group led by none other than our brand new headmaster, Gregoire Girard. A student body that would lead students and enforce the law on this little school of ours. Little is still known about this student body, but who knows? It might just be what the school needs.

A lunch box is seen last Friday, around 12:37:08pm with an encouraging note packed inside. This appalling display that utterly lacked manliness has left many students stunned and outrage, as some decided, after a long while, to speak out against it.
Full Story Here.

It was early in the morning. The sun was barely rising. The school was completely empty. Not a soul was awake- even in the dorms. Well, that was a lie. Zoe was awake. She was sitting on the roof, fiddling with her glasses in silence. The girl sat on a bench atop of the roof, staring up at the sky in silence. The blond girl seemed somewhat distracted. She was a tiny little thing who liked she couldn't hurt a fly.
As she sat, a light could be seen reflecting off her glasses- but there were no lights up there except for the dim natural sunlight as it slowly rose. This was the girl who had blackmailed Siobhan. Now, she was waiting- alone and in plain sight.
(( Siobhan Arden ))

Siobhan opened the door with a distasteful expression on her face. Her hallowed mood blackened when the door creaked noisily, announcing her presence to whomever else was waiting for her. Stepping out onto the rooftop, Siobhan fought back a yawn, trying to cover it up with some of her annoyance and exhaustion. Well? She was here unwillingly but there wasn't much of a choice. Siobhan had an obligation that had formed a collar around her throat. As long as the chains still wouldn't let her venture away, she was bound to serve Arden family for the rest of her existence. No matter how short it may be.
Siobhan noticed one person across the roof, back to her. Offended she was being taken so lightly- Who ever left their back open?- she stalked over to the waiting blackmailer, feeling her emotion towards the situation drift farther below the surface. This was how it was supposed to be. Emotions couldn't compromise a mission, and although Siobhan felt the hollow ache from where her flighty emotions should be, there was a small comfort in the emptiness that followed. Rounding the bench, Siobhan gave her offender a weary expression.
"Well? What will it be?"

Zoe leaned back in the chair, exhaling as she glanced up to the sky. Her expression held a soft smile as she watched the clouds. They were all painted various colors by the early morning sky as light filtered through whatever toxins and pollutants had been pumped into the air the night before. It was a beautiful sight. The girl would reach up to push a strand of hair behind her ear as she awaited.
She had known the girl was coming before she even opened the loud door. No, the small blond student had been watching her ever since she showed up on campus. Her glasses would continue to dimly reflect various lights from seemingly nowhere as she adjusted them. She'd smile brightly as her gaze drifted over her shoulder to the brown haired girl. Her eyes would widen as she stood and waved towards her. Zoe's body language was relaxed and overly friendly- as if she hadn't just called the girl up to the roof with blackmail material.
”It's wonderful to meet someone so interesting!” she spoke, nodding as she smiled weakly. Rubbing the back of her neck, Zoe would laugh anxiously. ”Sorry about the way I tried to get your attention. I know it was pretty nasty of me to hack into all your stuff,” she explained. Pressing her hands together, her gaze shifted to the side for a moment. ”Any who, yes, well... The reason I kind of forced you to come up here is because, er...” She'd pause for a moment before clearing her throat.
”As you can tell I'm very good with computers. Miss Arden, how would you like to be erased?”

Siobhan wouldn't be her father's daughter if the over-friendly body language and cheery attitude didn't unnerve her. She wasn't one to overlook details, and this was not just a red flag, it was an atomic bomb. Looking down at her with a guarded expression, Siobhan dismissed the apology without a response. It got her attention all right, but she was pretty pissed off about it. Still, the girl had some impressive skills, and that was enough to get Siobhan to give a reply.
Miss Arden, how would you like to be erased?”
Nice try. "You know my name, but I don't know yours. Normally meetings between friends, no less business partners, starts with someone introducing themselves first and then asking for the other's name."
Siobhan didn't relieve her expression once. Keeping the same straight look on her face, she sat down next to the girl, adjusting her tense body the best she could. It's just business. Conditional allies. The word stung, but if Siobhan focused on measuring her breathing in even paces, there wouldn't be a problem. She had left that path, and now, it was time for Siobhan to take off.

Zoe's smile didn't falter as she watched Siobhan. This girl certainly was all business, wasn't she? Of course, Zoe wasn't sure she'd be so cheery if it had been her own personal computers that had been hacked and taken hostage. Especially considering her computers had just as much, if not more, confidential information as this other girl's did. In fact, Zoe had been somewhat surprised when she saw most of it.
”Hmm you're right!” she spoke, nodding softly. Looking over her, Zoe once again reached up to fiddle with a piece of her hair. Her body language remained cheerful and friendly. ”My name is Zoe Garcia.” As she spoke, Zoe looked up, completely taking her eyes off the girl as she looked at the sky. While Siobhan looked guarded and stern towards the blond, Zoe herself was very relaxed. She clearly didn't think that Siobhan could do anything against her at all. Zoe was completely and utterly underestimating the girl- or at least, that's what it appeared like.
”You didn't answer my question. Would you like to?”

Siobhan didn't know anyone named Zoe Garcia. Mentally cursing at the limited knowledge at her disposal, she looked down at the relaxed girl with resentment. After all the work it took to get her life in order, this girl was willing to simply erase everything Siobhan had ever been. She was angry, no doubt, but even more so, Siobhan was reaching despair. What about Valo? Or even Shouyo? Those vows she had made to herself were now binding themselves into a vise grip around her throat. Siobhan was completely trapped with nowhere to go.
"If you were to erase me... What level of commitment are you talking about? Erase my existence to where no one knows me, or do I adapt another alias?"
Siobhan couldn't agree without knowing a few of the terms. If she were to throw herself whole-heartedly into this, it would be bad if Zoe only was erasing the new Siobhan that was emerging. She would be labeled a traitor, even worse, she would have dropped her friends over some meaningless threat. But it's not meaningless. Siobhan felt the fear of what Zoe had found grip at the edges of her mind. If her father found out, oh if he found out... The whole encounter with Zoe Garcia was truly not in her favor, but Siobhan had to take action. It's not really much of a question is it? We have to accept one way or another, don't we, Sia?

Zoe would tilt her head, still smiling brightly as the girl asked her questions. She would raise a hand thoughtfully to her chin. ”Hmmm~” She'd hum softly, looking up to the sky. ”Well, I'd erase as much as you want!” she spoke, nodding firmly as she clapped her hands together. The girl's smile would grow as she rubbed the back of her head. ”Ah, if you want no one to know you, that's fine!” Zoe would nod firmly as she looked over the girl.
”I just thought you might not want to have your nasty past anymore, but if you don't want to loose any of it, that's all there is to it, right?”

Siobhan felt herself waver. A complete existence, erased just like that? Her mind was spinning, body nauseous with the prospect. It wouldn't be hard. Scrub enough at her face, and soon enough she wouldn't be recognizable. If she cut her hair, dyed it, changed her eye color, Siobhan would be a new person. If the Arden heir died, the underworld would be in chaos. Strange enough, she was fine with that. After coming to this school, it was quickly evident she was unworthy. Bearing a name like that would be a dishonor. Siobhan deserved to be erased, for the better of everyone.
"What's your price then?"
Siobhan focused back on the mysterious girl, sitting down beside her. Somehow, it felt strange, trying to lift these burdens off of her. They were hers but once she was gone, who did they belong to? Zoe still possessed some extensive information, a potent amount that could bring the family to ruins. Who's job was it to extract that information? Not mine. It's not mine anymore. Siobhan felt emotion clawing up her throat. What about her allies? Images of people that she had met on good terms or bad, unlikely friends, all of it tried to crush her. No more, I don't want this, anymore.

Zoe would clap her hands together as the girl seemed to be deep in thought. She'd shuffle in her seat, swinging her legs back and form while humming softly. The girl had no real stake in this question or the erasing of the girl, and she certainly showed it. What difference did it make to Zoe whether or not Siobhan accepted the offer? As far she was concerned, the other girl was just a test subject to see if she could even do it. Yep. Siobhan was a test subject. Zoe had randomly chosen several students, and she had been the best candidate among them.
”Ah, there isn't a price or anything!” she'd say, smiling softly. ”I'm just wanting to try something like this out, and you were the best candidate!” As she explained this, Zoe would bring her hand up and twirl her fingers silently. ”But, let me make it clear, even if I do erase your past, I'm not going to let you just leave this school and everyone in it behind. After all, you're here for a reason, and you're probably dangerous- or getting there.” She'd sigh as she spoke. Zoe clearly thought this out to some extent.
”So, Siobhan would still exist in this school- just without the Arden bit, you know?”

Siobhan was caught off guard by the last bit of Zoe's words. Turning to face the girl with an openly stricken expression, it took a lot for her to force herself away and find composure. Those words made her bitter. "Without the Arden bit." Erasing the "Arden bit" of herself had been such a pressing goal when she was younger. Siobhan believed that if her name didn't cling to her like a cage, then freedom would be hers. She would be happier, and that was good enough for her to fight for.
But now, the idea of shedding her name was more terrifying than it was liberating. There were so many risks, so much selfishness that she would be wrecking onto her family. But Sia, since when has that been your problem? It wasn't. It was never her problem. Taking a deep breath, the girl struggled to sink the crashing emotions underneath a surface of complacence. Even if it failed, Siobhan could just return to the family. She could take whatever her father threw at her. She was fine. There were risks, but it was worth it.
"Do it. I'm assuming from the vagueness of the details this is some sort of trial run. Very well, I agree to be a conditional ally until our goal is met. So, Zoe Garcia, please erase my existence from this world."
