[[Starlight]] - Gifted/Teen Romance [Semi-lit+]

Ren shrugged and entered the wooden locker room. She picked a bag with clothes in her size and shut herself in a cabin. She changed into the shorts and the t-shirt as fast as she could, and she opened her backpack in search for her 'special accessories'. Finally, she fished out a pair of knee and elbow pads, and she readjusted her metal-protected fingerless gloves. As soon as she finished that, she picked key - her usual key, locker number 26 - and stored her belongings. She tied her hair in a very long ponytail in front of the mirror. Against what some people said, Ren did care about looks, she just didn't go bragging about what brand were her clothes or what kind of hairstyle she was planning to get when she would go to the hairdresser.

She stepped outside, and instantly shivered. The wind was picking up faster than what she had thought it would. The sky was patched in dark clouds and glorious, cold golden light. Autumn had definitely arrived. Far in the distance, the woods were shrouded by a thick mist, and the weather was dry and cold. Ren liked it like that; she loved autumn. However, she was beginning to regret not bringing her own long gym trousers. “I hope Coach won’t take too long.” She muttered, furrowing her brows at the darkening sky. They’d have a storm before noon. She walked down to the place where other students were gathering, without any visible hurry. But inside her, her stomach ached, anticipating the fight.
Some minutes later, their teacher appeared from the males’ changing room. He walked towards them in the self-assured, bouncy step that PE teachers usually have. He cast them a scrutinizing look, and smirked. “Well, how many new faces! It’s nice to have you all here, and to know you survived Summer. Now good luck on surviving the school year.” He paced up and down the student line. “We’ll set the groups for this year, and then our seniors can start their usual warm-up training. I want to have a talk with all newbies.”
Ren grinned widely. Now that was her kind of thing.

((Sorry for taking so long to reply :c Internet here is all messed up...))

(( It's alright! ))

Suddenly, Hiko appeared out of nowhere as his state of invisibility, or meditation as he called it, was lost. He gazed at the gym coach with wary eyes. The breeze picked up slightly and he breathe din deeply, relishing the cool touch and sharp scent of Autumn. He straightened up slightly and watched the coach. Every cell in his body screamed at him to run to the woods, were he would be most comfortable. In truth, he had always lived in small forests or parks before he came to Starlight Academy. He might just even break the rules at night and wander out into the dangerous woods to sleep there instead. He wasn't used to the social life. It unnerved him. But at least being avoided wasn't new to him. Ren was certainly something else though. He glanced at the coach, confirming the fact that he is, indeed, a newbie here at Starlight Academy.

Nate slipped through the shadows of the crowded school. His eyes clouded slightly with anger. PE was just what he needed. No one would ask him what the limit of f of x squared from negative infinity to negative three was. He would be able to run. To be himself and not have to mask. He could give in. He wouldn't have to fight the demons, the spirits, the guardian, which ever it chose to be at that point in time. He could succumb to it, let it take over. Or he could fight; let his aggression out; the rage pour out. He could stay himself. The more he thought, the deeper he sank inside himself; the darker his eyes got. Their chocolaty brown turned darker to black. His pupils and his irises blended. Pulling his hood down over his face, Nate tried not to bump into anybody. The air coming to his nostrils was becoming fresher; cleansing the polluted school air. The smell of freedom. Open air was the best air. Mountain air was amazing. He made his way to the small building that was used to change from school clothes to gym clothes. Going into the guys locker room, he set his bag down on the bench in front of a row of lockers. Other guys were getting dressed, coming in, or going out. He quickly changed into clean shorts and a plain grey tee shirt. He grabbed his sneakers and walked barefooted out to where students and coaches were already gathered. He heard the head coach was already in the middle of his lecture. Every time he talked it was a lecture. Even if he was saying hi in the hallway, it was a lecture. Nate stepped up to one of the other coaches, the running coach. He let the coach know that he was going to take a quick run to take the edge off. He had a bad year last year, and he had become close to the running coach. Who helped him a lot, giving him running tips and also letting him escape to the cross country path when things got too bad. A quick two minute run would be enough. He thought. Quick enough to make it back for any important information from the coach's talk but fast enough to clear his mind. One quick second of slipping his shoes on and he was off. A human rocket.

Sevvy made her way outside, brushing a hand through her silver hair as she watched the coach, getting into the poorly formed line of students, and then groaned softly. She looked around slightly, trying to get used to the new setting, but her anamalistic instincts told her not to get too comforttable. She liked to be alone, but part of her wanted to have someone to talk to. She huffed softly, finding it uncomfortable to just stand and listen the whole time, which caused her to fidget as she watched the couch, breathing in heaves to try and comfort herself. Her insides churned, her animals begging to be let out, but she tried to control it. "Can......can we just get to exercises?" she blurted, and covered her mouth, frowning.

Coach Smith laughed. "Why so impatient? We've got the rest of the morning. Besides, forming groups is very important. You're going to know who will you work with for the rest of this year. Each team will have three members, but you must act as one person." He lectured. He glanced around at his students. "Very well. We'll start with a random student." He checked the name list and picked a name at random. "Nate, who would you want to have in your team?" he asked.

Ren huffed impatiently. She kind of agreed with the girl who had spoken, even though she understood the importance of choosing groups. The coach looked at her with a half-amused look, and she straightened her back immediately. She must not slacken up.

Hiko sighed and stretched, grimacing as an old wound on his spine twanged painfully. At the pain, he dimly remembered something. A sharp stab of pain went to his head as he remembered, but he ignored it.
Hiko laughed as she ran beside him. "They'll never catch us." He said confidently. He had spoken too soon. Almost as soon as the words were out of his mouth, a shot was fired. His eyes widened in shock as something slammed home into his back. His feet lifted off the ground and he went flying, mouth open in surprise, blood spraying behind him. "HIKO!" she screamed.
Hiko grimaced and rubbed his head, his face paler than before. "Coach." He called. He stood up on the rock so the coach could see him. "Wouldn't it be proper to give the new students a small test, to identify their powers so that we know what we need to work on, physically?" He said, his eyes blank. He already knew what he was, but their were a few whispers here and there in the crowd. They didn't, and he had a feeling they would love to know if Hiko had a weakness. At the very thought his eyes narrowed even more and the whispers ceased. They would never know his weakness. If they learned it, he would kill them.

The cool breeze blowing around Nate felt refreshing. His muscles acted on instinct, coiling and stretching without a thought. Running back toward the students and Coaches, he checked his watch. Yes, a half mile in two minutes! He finished the quick sprint and rejoined the group in time for the coach to pick his name. Are you kidding me?! He thought in his head. He hated being put on the spot. He didn't care who he was with and wasn't much for 'Group activities'. "Umm...Uh..Er." He mumbled. Thankfully some random dude interrupted his poorly thought out sentence. Glancing up to see who his rescuer was, Nate studied Hiko. Some new student with dark hair and a ego two sizes too big. Was all that came to mind. Looking back at Coach, he gave a small grimace of a hopeful smile.

"I...to tell you the truth, Coach," she started, waiting 'til after both males spoke, and then continued. "To be honest, sir, I kind of have a disability...if that's what you'd call it." she breathed softly again, and spoke yet for the third time. "Well...I'm a shifter, sir, and I have the issues of being unable to sit still...so, I understand the group thing, but I really have to get moving...my animals are my weakest point when it comes to sitting still...please, sir, if I'm not asking to much, to just group us quickly?" she asked, unable to really stand still as she fidgetted a bit more. Her eyes showed a desperate coolness, her face twisted into something of hurt, and her body tingled with the sense to run...to flee. She wanted this to end already so she could get free....out of her humanly body and get out and be herself...or well, all of herself. After a moment, she looked tword Hiko. Something seemed to be troubling that boy...something that seemed internal. She then looked tword the female who spoke after her, curious.

[Shiko Hayashi]

(( Hiko doesn't have an ego...... He's just very protective of his secrets... ))
