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.

((ooc: this takes place after the episode during lunch btw  ))
Kyou was in the library, reading a book that he'd pulled off of one of the shelves and reading it in his hands, not caring to even sit down at a table. He flipped through the pages and studied them, thinking, "This is useful... but I'm not entirely sure how useful this information is. These drugs are similar, but I don't think they're what I'm looking for, and not too mention they seem very dangerous..." He sighed. "Well, I might as well take notes. I'm sure I can make use of some of these things." He walked over to one of the tables in the nearly empty table and set it down on its surface, taking out his notebook from his backpack. He glanced up to see Zoe was also in the library, sitting at another table and minding her own business.
"Oh! It's Zoe-san! I wonder what she's doing in the library...?" He picked up his books and started to head over to her, but then stopped. "Who am I kidding? She's probably trying to avoid conflict with other students in her free time. And she's probably reading or doing something important like studying. It'd be really rude of me to interrupt her." He turned to walk away but then stopped before looking over his shoulder to glance at her again. "Well, it probably couldn't hurt. I mean, I wonder what she's up to? It's probably interesting, and if I am intruding, then I'll just pretend I had something really important to ask her and leave! Yeah. That's a good idea..."
He approached her quietly and set his books on the table, sitting in the chair next to hers. "Hi Zoe-san," he said with a friendly smile, making sure to keep his voice down since they were, after all, in a library (even though there was like... no one there. lol). "What are you up to?" he asked.

Kyou was right on the money. Zoe always went to the library to avoid conflict. She'd hide in there for the majority of the day. If there were too many people there, she'd usually go up to the school's roof. She had a single journal in front of her, open as she scribbled things down. They looked like complex diagrams. The girl would stop writing as she heard the boy approaching. In such a quiet place, anything aside from the sound of her pencil scribbling would be easily heard.
Looking up, Zoe closed her journal, smiling softly. ”Ah,good morning Kyou,” she spoke. Her eyes looked at him and then down to the book. She'd smile brightly as she replied. ”Ah, just some homework.” If Kyou had even managed to catch a glance at the journal's contents, it'd clearly be something beyond what any teacher at PHS 552 could assign. |

"I see... I hope I wasn't interrupting..." He said quietly. He looked over at her notebook and adjusted his glasses, staring. "Is that trigonometry?" He asked. "Or is it something else...? Nonetheless..." He stared. "That hardly seems like something that this school would supply for an assignment--even if you were a senior! Dr. Tadashi writes stuff like that all the time, and my father would show me similar diagrams of complex codes and equations as well when I was younger... but he's a genius, and that type of knowledge is... not high school material. What on earth could she be doing this for? It can't be homework, but then..." He placed a finger on his chin as he looked up. "If my deductions are correct... She's probably studying for things outside of school. I wouldn't be surprised if she's taking advanced courses outside of this school to make up for it's lacking programs... Which just leads me to the question I've already been wondering for quite a while now..." He blinked, staring slightly at her. "What on earth is a classy, highly intelligent girl like her doing at a school like this? Me, I've got a perfectly good reason to be here, but I have a hard time seeing what she could have done to deserve being dumped in a place like this... Perhaps she was at the wrong place at the wrong time? But I can know for a fact now that she doesn't belong in a place like this..." He shook the thoughts from his mind, realizing he hadn't finished what he was saying. "What's it for? Not school, surely..."

Zoe shook her head he spoke. ”No, it's fine! You didn't interrupt anything important,” she spoke, nodding softly as she looked off to the side, glancing at her bag that sat next to her chair. Running a hand up to pull some hair behind her ear, the girl shook her head. ”Er... not quiet... uh...” Zoe rubbed the back of her head as the boy stood there, clearly thinking.
'Ah! You caught me,” she laughed softly, scratching the side of her cheek. ”It's a side project of mine... er any way!” Zoe clapped her hands together, ”What brings you to the library?” |

Kyou nodded at what she said, before she asked what he'd been doing here... "I probably should have thought about that... She'll probably horribly misunderstand me if I were to bluntly say, 'Oh! I'm looking up drugs!!' so it's probably best not to talk about that..." He laughed lightly, though it didn't quite seem genuine, but more out of a nervous habit. "Nothing important, just a side project of mine," he said back.

Zoe looked at Kyou, watching as he laughed. She didn't seem to notice his insincere laugh- or if she did, the girl didn't seem to let it show that it bothered her. Looking down to her journal, Zoe's eyes shifted back towards Kyou as she smiled softly. ”Ah, so we're both working on side projects..” |

"Yup... I guess so," He said somewhat awkwardly. He sat down next to her, setting his backpack and his books on the ground next to him. "If you don't mind my asking... I can't help but to wonder what it is that... um..." He stopped himself. He wanted to ask her what she was doing at PHS 552, but then... He cocked his head to one side, staring sadly at the table with a blank expression. "If I am right, and she truly is a good student who shouldn't be at a school like this... then the reason why she's attending this place must be pretty awful. We're just acquaintances, and she seems so cheerful she probably would get really upset if I were to talk about something depressing. I mean... what if she's the child of a rich couple who were being targeted to be assassinated, so she's hiding away in a place like this for her own safety?!" He bit his lip. "Or what if someone committed a murder and she was framed for it and was sent to this school because everyone thinks she's a horrible person now?!" He stared intently at her, studying her face. "Or... or... what if she's secretly an agent from Japan who's super smart because she was sent here specifically to do a reconnaissance on me and gather Intel to report to the higher ups?!" His expression turned from that of concern to sheer horror. "No way! There's no way that could be the case! Nah-uh!" He picked up his notebook and flipped the pages hastily, grabbing his pen and writing on the blank pages. "Douyatte kita no desu ka?" He asked her. "If she responds, that means she knows Japanese and I have a bigger lead on what it is that she's doing here... Because 1. She'll know Japanese and MIGHT be after me--though I'm most likely just being paranoid--and 2. if she knows Japanese and responds, then I'll know why it is that she's here..."
((ooc: If she speaks Japanese and you don't know what he said I can translate for you XD))

Zoe nodded. ”That's good, this school isn't very challenging academically- even for average students,” she spoke as she leaned back in her chair. ”So doing your own little side projects is always a good idea to keep yourself fit for testing!” When he sat down next to her, Zoe tilted her head as he spoke- or rather, started to speak before stopping. She smiled weakly as the boy appeared to be lost in thought. Zoe would look down to her journal as she waited patiently for him to collect his thoughts.
When he finally spoke, she smiled softly. ”Oh, I walk to school... So I'm sorry if you needed a ride or something,” she replied, completely missing the point of his question. Zoe knew some Japanese. She had read a few books on Japanese phrases and what not earlier in the year. She knew enough to find her way through a Japanese city, but she was still far from fluent. |

"Kuso--" He cursed, bowing his head until it hit the table. "She knows Japanese! I can't believe it--SHE KNOWS JAPANESE." He shut his eyes tight as he could practically feel tears coming to them. "I'm so screwed. And here I was, thinking she'd have no idea what I meant when I asked how it was that she got here... ahah... I'm such a dumbass... Sayonara, mom! Dad! Sayonara..." He buried his face in his hands. "That's just great........ It's fine, by the way... I don't need a ride or anything..."

Zoe stared at him, tilting her head as he spoke. Kuso..? She tilted her head, trying to remember what it meant. Wait, that was a Japanese curse word right? Zoe looked at him, blinking as he rested his face in his hands. ”Er... are you okay? Um....” she mumbled awkwardly. |

Kyou ran his fingers through his hair briefly, sighing. "I'm perfectly fine," he said. "She's going to kill me. She's going to fucking kill me in my sleep or something--thank goodness I sleep in the attic and the only way to get up there is a secret, but I'm sure she's smart enough to figure it out, after all I was nine when I devised it. But... but... i-if I hurry up and finish up that drug I'm developing, maybe she won't be able to kill me after all!" He sat up straight and picked up the drug book he'd been reading earlier, placing it on his lap and scooting away from her slightly. "Now, let's see... All of these are very dangerous and the chances of survival when taking these drugs and when wounded are... practically zero. If there's a less powerful type of drug, or perhaps other herbs and things of the sort that have similar but less intense effects, I could use those instead."

Zoe tilted her head as the boy sighed and spoke. As he scooted away, she frowned. Her face had a look of puzzlement and curiosity. ”Er, was it something I said?” she asked, cocking a brow. |

Kyou lightly shook his head, burning holes into the pages of the book with his intense gaze as he tried to study everything, like as though he wanted to memorize every word. "Couldn't be. If nothing's wrong, then it couldn't have been something you said... right?"

Zoe sighed as she leaned over her journal and opened it, keeping one side up so Kyou couldn't see within. ”I guess... “ she shrugged. Still, Zoe knew something was bothering the boy. ”Do you need any help over there?” |

Kyou shook his head. "A-absolutely not! Haha, I'm perfectly fine. This stuff is like... elementary!" He stopped. "Damn... If she really IS out for my neck, then it'd be stupid of me to act like developing a drug and writing down complex equations and chemical formulations to coincide with the human body's own chemical makeup and anatomy is a piece of cake. If I can lower suspicion of me being smarter than the average thirteen year old, she might get discouraged and won't even try to kill me! She'll think she got the wrong person! O-or I could just ask her how good she is with fighting... If she's not very good at fighting, perhaps I was just jumping to conclusions and she's not really an assassin trying to kill or abduct me after all!" He frowned, cocking his head to one side. "Then again... assuming that I wasn't in danger and lowering my guard when in a situation that seemed perfectly safe has gotten me nearly killed on multiple occasions. I'd better go with plan A and hope for the best." He placed a paper in the book and then closed it, laughing softly. "I'm just kidding. I actually can't understand any of this jargon stuff. I guess I was just trying to show off and impress you by making it look like I was studying on something important." He giggled a little. "I should have tried doing something else, huh??"
