[dearly beloved]

Ren started humming a little louder, which soon became a soft singing. Within a 3 seat radius anyone could hear her. She tapped her heel on the ground, her riding boots clicking quietly. She smiled and starting bobbing her head. She closed her eyes and let out a soft laugh.

.+Rin Mori+.
Rin froze as Kiyoshi took her hand and kissed it, her dark chocolate eyes boring holes in the visible part of his black-haired head. "H-hai," she removed her hand as quick as possible without being rude, slightly unnerved by his obvious sarcasm. When they hugged, Rin shook her head in utter confusion and raised her open palms into the air. "Okay, okay. Anyone mind explaining me what on Earth is going on?" she asked. One thing she hated was not having a clue on what was happening. "And I think we've arrived," she added, feeling the bus jerk to a sudden stop in front of a brightly lit, tall and luxurious-looking building, its facade decorated with a giant poster showing the Olympic Games symbol. The doors hissed open to let a breeze of fresher night air in, and Rin gripped her bag in order not to forget it, but determined not to go away until she understood what exactly had happened there. In the back of her mind, a small voice told her that it was none of her business, but she ignored it stubbornly.

"Err, know any Nirvana?" Magma called out from the back of the bus, peering her head over the seats. Her eyes scanned the bus until she found the girl with the guitar. Oh, it was that other Canadian girl. What was her name again? Well, it wasn't like she really cared. She was horrible with small talk; it made her sound awkward and quirky. "Heart Shaped Box, preferably. It's a good song."
She flicked some hair out of her grass green eyes, using the Justin Bieber-esque swish to keep her hands free. Her red and white maple leaf print hoodie came down past her fingertips, so there wasn't much she could really do without rolling up her sleeves. She hated being short sometimes.

Elissa

Pondering upon this for a moment, Elissa tapped her foot a bit, soon bending down to her stack of papers. "Hmm..." She sifted through the many pages, finally landing on her small stack of Nirvana. Pulling up the paper that said "Heart Shaped Box", she set it onto her lap. She shifted a bit so that her guitar fit more snugly in her arms, before lifting her head again. "Sure thing, but your singing." She called called back to the girl with a grin. In no way was she singing in public, knowing that her voice was a little... Under developed. In other words, she sounded like a 12 year old when she sang, and she did not want these people bugging her about it. Hearing a shift in the seat across from her, she saw a boy about her age slip into the seat, and judging by the way he scrunched up towards the window, didn't seem to eager to talk much. Shrugging, she moved her attention to her guitar, strumming out the first notes, and waiting for Magma to join in.

:II Kohaku II:

Kohaku broke the hugfirst, smiled at Kiyoshi, and blushed sheepishly at Rin. "Rin, this is my oneesan, my twin brother. He's been missing since I was 6 and taken in by my Sensei." He said, blushing deeper. He had completely forgotten her their. He felt his heart speed up with embarrassment. Kiyoshi rubbed his head with his knuckles and laughed. "Ah! I see you have a little crush here brother." He said, grinning like a wolf. "KIYO!" Kohaku snapped, his face now a deep red.

.+Rin Mori+.
Despite her efforts to stay cool, a faint redness crept over her cheeks, but Rin dismissed Kiyoshi's comment as a joke. "We're just colleagues, me and Kohaku-san. So, let's go?" she gestured towards the open door, eager to get away from this awkward situation. If Kohaku's face had been any redder, it would have looked exactly like the circle in her 'Banzai Nippon' scarf. She could bet her own face was a little flustered, too. She took the lead and headed to the back doors, holding on to the metal bar down the side and jumping down as gracefully as possible, absorbing the impact by bending her knees slighlty like she had learned some years ago, when the doctors had told her that her knees were her weakest spot. She looked up to take in the view of the majestic hotel, its golden lights shining down in her face and making her eyes gleam like polished glass, and then turned back to the open doors, attempting a shaky smile at the reunited twins standing behind her. "Looks good enough to me. Let's get going," she switched back to English, mentally preparing herself to use it for the next few days.

:II Kohaku II:

Kohaku relaxed outwardly, but inside, his heart was breaking. Only... Only collegues? Kiyoshi's face darkened slightly, but the look vanished before Kohaku could place it. "Let's go, Haku." Kiyoshi said, wrappin ghis arm around his brother's neck and pushing him forward. The two brothers walked twoards the hotel, behind Rin, arms around each other's shoulders.

.//.Annie.\\.

Annie waited for everyone else to leave the bus, taking in each person's appearance and their mood. She looked at them from the corner of her eye, only moving when everyone had gone. She stood up slowly, walking behind the lat person, looking at the floor. When she felt the cool breeze hit her fce, she looked up. A grand white hotel stood before her and the other competitors, marked with the Olympic symbol.
"Wow..." she muttered quietly to herself, hoping no one noticed her voice [[since it did not match her tough reputation, it was delicate and fragile, and she wanted no one to notice]]. She looked through the door windows, her eyes widening at the sight of the inside. "Amazing."

[Rayen]

.+Rin Mori+.
Rin walked leisurely up to the hotel's front doors, which opened themselves as she got closer. She ignored them and waited for the others to catch up, then entering the clean, marble-floored lobby, her Nike sneakers creaking faintly against the stone tiles. She stopped at the decorated wooden counter, facing a blond assistant who gave her the regular blindingly white smile. "Umm, good evening. We're from the Japanese team of the Olympics. The names are..." she looked behind her and mentally listed every Japanese athlete who had boarded into the London Royal Plaza Hotel, "...Rin Mori, Kohaku and Kyoshi Oshiro, Ren Hikaru and..." she strained to remember the other boy's name, certain that she had heard it before. "Kaede Susumu, I think. Could you check that, please?"

A few clicks on the computer and one minute of rattling and browsing through the stacks of plastic rectangles lying in perfect order in front of them, the assistant pushed five key cards towards her, still with the same plastic, Barbie-like smile plastered on her face. "Room 305 for the girls, and 306 for the boys. Anything you need, just ask. Have a good evening and enjoy your stay." She sounded like a record, as though she was repeating these sentences for the millionth time that day. Rin collected the two cards and turned around, stuffing one of them into Kohaku's free hand and then turning away from the twins to search for Ren.

((Is it okay with you guys if the characters share rooms like that? If not, I'll edit my post. c: Oh, and anyone can play the assistant.))

[Shiko Hayashi]

:II Kohaku II:

Kohaku's heart felt like it was entering a black abyss and his shoulders slumped as she handed him his card and turned away. "Arigato...." He muttered, eyes downcast. He slipped his hood back up and Kiyoshi gave him pity full eyes. "Aww... It's alright brother. I'll leave as soon as I drop my stuff off at the room." He said, smiling sadly. Kohaku clung to his brother, sahking his head. "Eeyadah!" He snapped. "Stay. I want you to meet everyone..." he said slowly, looking away.v Kiyoshi studied him, then nodded. "Alright. Takumi!" He whistled. The wolf dog trotted to his side.

((Kohaku act's like such a... well.. bisxual guy when around Kiyoshi. Reminds me of the twins from the anime Ouran High School Host Club. ))

Elissa

Feeling a shift, Elissa peeked up to see everyone dismounting the bus. Shrugging, she hurried shoved her guitar back into the case before swinging it over her shoulder and out of the bus, suitcase trailing after her on its wheels. Soon, she'd caught up to Rin Mori, Kohaku and Kyoshi Oshiro, Kaede Susumu, and Ren Hikaru. "Hey," she smiled, coming to a stop beside them, and once again brushing a stray lock of hair aside. "Could I get one too please?" She asked, looking over at the woman behind the desk. Inwardly, she sighed, wondering why on earth these hotel workers thought they had to be such dolls. Honestly, we can't get someone real around here? The thought was apparently unacceptable to hotel owners, judging by the fact that so far, every hotel she'd been to had barbie dolls stationed at every area. Giving a smile, she turned to the others. "Looks like I'll be bunking with you two." She grinned, silently quite relieved that so far, she had nothing against any of the girls here. Magma seemed to have good music taste, which was great, and Rin and Ren seemed nice enough so far. Relief was rushing through her; maybe, just maybe, this wouldn't be so bad.
