weather forecasts have been going crazy recently with the typhoon season coming up. the past few weeks have been wet and gloomy with countless thunderstorms. many powerlines have been cut due to this and work cancelled this week. Due to the plunging temperatures and heavy rain today all students at Aomori High will be required to stay in school until the storm calms down. However, the wind and rain are not expected to clear up until the next day.

students will be required to sleep overnight in the gym with girls on one side of the gym and boys on the other side. There will be teacher supervision at all times. sleeping bags and blankets will be provided. any student caught sneaking out from the gym will be punished accordingly. who's to say you can't sneak out right? Patrol guards will be locking classrooms at 12:00am sharp. don't get trapped in one?

Most people would be gloomy and tired after experiencing a whole week, no a whole month of rain and cloudy weather. Nope, not Saki she loved the sweet pleasant petrichor emanating in the air right after the rain ceased. It was kind of reminiscent of the time she was jumping around in puddles as a child with the cute duck rain coat and yellow gum boots. Saki had just finished studying in the library, now staring at the rain droplets that tapped on the window. watching as they raced each other across the transparent glass leaving trails of water behind. almost like cute molluscs yes snails are cute leaving their shiny mucous behind. Looking like a lost lamb with a dorky smile on her face she was in a blissful and dreamy state before being brought back to reality. Teachers had announced after class today, that due to the stormy weather which was not expected to clear up until tomorrow morning, students were to stay overnight which was an unexpected turn of events. the thought of not being able to change clothes or take a shower was gross but she would have to cope for just a few hours hopefully.

She just didn't like the idea of sleeping altogether in the gym, worst case scenario she wouldn't sleep at all because of how uncomfortable she felt. i'll just sneak out and sleep in one of the classrooms then. was what she was thinking at that very moment. it didn't even matter that her good-standing with the teachers would be tainted, sleep > good-standing. "All students please head to the gym!" letting out a sigh Saki packed away her books and began her trek to the school gym whilst planning her escape in the night.

as naoko's green eyes watched multiple raindrops splatter and run down the glass window, she nearly missed the announcement broadcasted across the whole entire school. she hummed to herself, allowing a small, pleased smile cross her face. it seemed that she couldn't possibly go home today, how nice. though, admittedly, the grey-haired teen knew her mother was probably worried sick over her, the relief of not being able to head home to where her father was waiting for her to do his bidding swarmed her thoughts. naoko had never been more happier.
she had a spring in her step as she gathered her school supplies up into her backpack and headed towards the gym. naoko didn't even care that the gym was at the opposite end of the school; she was too indulged in the fact that she didn't have to make meaningless and probably painful small talk with her doting parents that evening or the next morning. she hoped this weather kept up for weeks.
due to her absentmindedness at the time, the grey-haired girl nearly toppled another student over; a pink haired girl she vaguely remembered as 'hasegawa'. 'sakura...? sachi...? no, saki! that's it; saki.' she thought, scrambling to pick both hers and hasegawa's belongings up before the two got tramplef by the other oncoming students. "my sincerest apologies, hasegawa-san. I was too busy enjoying the weather, it seems!" she giggled, though, unlike when she giggled with satoru, this was a genuine laugh. naoko was fond of such innocent souls, and felt the need to protect them. of course, she had only met saki once, back when she was a first-year, so she hadn't had the time to really befriend her. of course, naoko always had her eye out on the other, whether she knew her name or not.
"I love the weather, don't you? it makes you want to curl up under your blankets and read a nice, bittersweet manga." she hummed, handing saki back her dropped belongings. she glanced out the window, watching as more darkened clouds rolled towards them. "would you like to go to the gym together?" she suddenly asked, laughing nervously. "I know we barely have ever talked, but I think that it would be nice to make some new friends. is that okay?" now, naoko was rarely asking people to befriend her; especially those she knew had classes with her some time in the week. a loner has to keep their appearance up, after all. plus, the pink-haired girl may have some dirt on her new target.
she had seen the group on the roof before; saki, saburo, yosei, kio, and a few others she couldn't really think of. 'it would be worth looking into, really. some allies may be nice.' she thought, awaiting saki's reply eagerly.

indentakio stared absentmindedly out the window. the gloomy weather was his favorite, but he never had figured out why. maybe it was because of the darkness that let him savor a bad mood. maybe it was because it gave him an excuse to stay home and curl up with his cat. except, this time, it apparently didn't give him a chance to do the latter.

indent"all students please head to the gym!"

indentakio sighed and stood from his desk, picking up his things and exiting the classroom. he didn't exactly like the idea of spending the rest of the day and all night locked in the gym. he didn't mind the people part of it, though, as long as he wasn't expected to be very social.the past few weeks had been exhausting for him. his mother had gotten sick, not terminally or anything, but nonetheless sick. he didn't mind bringing her soup (which she said was another masterpiece of his), but it took his energy right from under him.

indentas he walked along the lonely hall, he couldn't help but yawn. everything outside seemed to be sleeping, except the clouds of course. everyone was tucked warmly away wherever they might be. except him. he tried to stay in a good mood as he turned the corner and entered the final stretch leading to the gym. he was so lost in thought that he almost tripped over two girls.

indenthe recognized naoko immediately, but he did not know the name of the other girl with her. he stood over and started picking up papers too, trying to be helpful. a gentle smile placed itself on his lips, and he felt better being able to help.

indent"headed to the gym? some weather to be keeping us like this," he joked, standing after giving the last of the papers to the girl he did not know.

Saki wandered down the hallway with her hands fully occupied with books whilst strategically planning her escape to whatever room would be most convenient to camp in. Should she take a sleeping bag or a blanket with her? With how light and petite her body was it wouldn't be a problem how much noise she made but whoever stayed awake. In that worst case scenario she would just have to hope that they don't snitch on her to the teachers. But deep down the fact that she wasn't able to prepare lunch or practice piano that night irked at her. As well as the fact that she worried about her family who were completely useless in the art of 'taking care of one's health' also meaning they didn't know how to cook food at all. I'm sure they can cope for one night.. The thought of not being able to follow her daily routine annoyed Saki just maybe a little bit. If i sleep in the music room tonight I can play the piano. if it was too loud she could just muffle the sound of the piano using the pedal.

Having decided on her plan she hummed to herself in delight with a gentle smile spreading across her face. Before being rammed into from behind by an unknown force which she found out to be Naoko, sending her books toppling to the ground and almost her in the process. But luckily for her she managed to catch her balance at the right moment. "Ah! Oh no it was my fault I'm so sorry I should've been more aware of my surroundings." apologising profusely before scrambling to pick up her bag and the books scattered across the ground. Another person had also stopped along the way to help pick up some papers, a blonde-haired boy she hadn't seen around before. Once all books had been gathered she stood up, "Thank you for helping me" giving Naoko an apologetic but gentle smile before turning to face the blonde-haired boy. "I don't believe we've met before, my name is Saki nice to meet you!" before giving him the same gentle smile. She hadn't exactly talked to either of them before but she knew the girl's name, Naoko. She laughed at the boy's joke about the weather. Her thoughts about the weather matched with Naoko's which made her happy to have found someone who thought the same way as her. "I love this weather as well. Its very calming, and I would love to read some shoujo manga in this weather. Although doing that at school isn't my ideal sort of free-time." giggling at the idea. The sound of the wind whistling through the air as the storm got wilder from the inside creeped Saki out. But having some company wasn't too bad. "Lets go together! I would love to be friends with you both, I'll be in your care" bowing politely before setting off for the gym together as they talked.

To be honest, Satoru found the fact that the students had to stay overnight at the school was rather stupid. He could deal with rain and wind, although he would've been able to see the reason in staying in the school had there been lightning and thunder. So far there had been no noticeable signs of the two, as it was just pouring rain. Satoru didn't live that far away, and he had an extra umbrella stashed away in his locker. After previous incidents the red eyed male had learned to always keep an umbrella as a backup in his locker in case things went wrong. "And the teachers aren't even letting us go. Instead, we're forced to stay in the gym and sleep here. Wasn't the basketball team using the gym earlier?"

Letting out a huff of dissent, Satoru crossed his legs as he sat down on his sleeping bag that he had gotten earlier. He had finished most of his homework in class and had taken some time after school to work on the questions that he didn't quite understand with the help of the library and his textbooks. Slumping down onto his sleeping bag and rolling into a more comfortable position, Satoru ran his hands through his dark coloured hair and gazed into the ceiling. There wasn't much to do except to study or to socialize with friends, but Satoru had finished most of his homework and there was no one that he could really consider as his friend. Most were classmates and acquaintances, people that couldn't be considered particularly close to him.

Lying in his position for a while longer, the black haired male with magenta tipped ends winced as he suddenly sat up, rubbing at his neck. Were pillows provided as well? He couldn't remember, and now he really wished that he had his blazer that he had lent to Naoko with him. Blinking at the thought, Satoru got to his feet rather unsteadily. Lying down and getting back up within the span of a minute did its job in making someone feel disoriented, and it didn't feel good at all. Sighing, the red eyed male squeezed his eyes shut and tentatively opened them again when he felt that he was steady again. "I think I still have Naoko's container in my locker, but I know I washed it out. I should give it back to her, shouldn't I?" Nibbling on the inside of his cheek, the black haired male with magenta tipped ends shrugged. It would give him something to do, and it would allow Satoru to find other places that he could possibly sleep. At this point he was done with the teachers; he didn't care if he got in trouble for not sleeping in the gym.

"One of the classrooms would be nice, I guess. It's not as though I haven't fallen asleep in front of my own desk back at home before." Muttering other incoherent words under his breath, Satoru glanced at the sleeping bag and blanket once more. He would eventually come back for it; most of the students had already gotten their supplies to make it through the night. Letting out a small yawn and raising a hand to cover his mouth, Satoru's other hand slipped down to his pocket to reach for his phone. There was WiFi at the school, and although it was rather shoddy, it would do. While he wouldn't open the Deceit app, playing something like Crash Fever would be a quaint idea to pass time. Tapping his phone lightly before withdrawing his hand, the red eyed male pursed his lips shut before making his way into the halls.

god, it was really raining cats and dogs outside and to think it started off as a warm almost summer-like day. over the school intercom, igarashi heard that the faculty announced that the students would have to stay overnight at school because it was too dangerous to head home for some reason. this disappointed igarashi beyond belief for various reasons. she had to stick around a bunch of people who made her nervous and she had to feed her shiba inu at the temple she was staying at. 'i guess the temple master cold feed him for me, but my poor baby kaede.' this honestly worried igarashi quite a bit. the temple master was a nice man, her uncle at that a drunk uncle at that. he was always stuffing his face with sake and was never really around, so thats why she always said that she lived alone.

it was almost time for all the students to get settled into the gym. this meant having to be around a bunch of people she disliked, but sadly she had no other choice. before heading towards the gym igarashi stopped by the classroom to grab a few things from her desk. grabbing a sketch boo and her pencil case, the young girl made her way down to the main floor and towards the gym. there werent a lot of people there yet, which was a lucky score for igarashi as she wanted to grab a spot by the back gym door just in case of an emergency.

making her way through the gym doors, igarashi spotted a few other classmates who had already started to make themselves comfortable; but there was no sign of mizukawa yet. to to totally honest she wanted to apologize for her odd behavior so he didnt see her as a giant weirdo. with a heavy sigh she made her way over to the back gym door and sat herself down there with the sleeping bag that was handed out to her. the door was right in the middle line of the boy's side and the girl's side, but it didnt really bother igarashi too much.

oc: i think everyone will dig what happens hehehe

naoko returned saki's smile, happy to have helped the other. her smile became less genuine, however, as she turned to see another boy help saki. the blonde guy, as far as naoko knew, was named ishikawa akio. she had seen him in a few of her classes and he seemed relatively nice, but she still hated the fact that he had to butt in when she obviously had everything in control. "ishikawa-san, is it? thank you for helping us." she said, her grin now a smile. "heading to the gym too?" she asked, in order to make small conversation. as much as she wanted to get out of this awkward situation, naoko knew she had to keep her façade up to please saki. she obviously was oblivious to her hatred of the opposite sex, as was majority of the school, and she really didn't want to blow that. especially around akio.
she had heard on the grapevine that the blonde male had been hurt by a deciet player, and she wouldn't want to let him think that she was a deceit player, as much as that would entertain naoko. she hummed to herself, watching as the crowds started to thin out, leaving only a few slow students to make their way to the appointed meeting place. "we should probably get going. wouldn't want to be stuck outside of the gym tonight!" she giggled, adjusting her backpack.
she waited for saki and akio to exchange greetings, smiling all the while. 'man, my cheeks hurt. I should probably stop smiling so much. stupid men.' she grumbled to herself, letting her grin settle into a content upturn of the corners of her mouth. it was then that the grey-haired girl realised something of dire importance.
she had never returned itou's blazer.
"oh no..." she mumbled, not realising she voiced her concern out loud. she muttered an apology for her weird outburst. "I just forgot to return something in my bag, that's all!" she explained with an apologetic smile. "I'll have to speak to him again. lord almighty, give me strength. or at least let the storm tear apart his spot in the gym. that would be nice.'

It was not a gentle pitter patter that befell the school, but a clash of noise as water violently slapped against the windows and bricks of the building. It was mixed with the howling of the wind, indicating that there was a powerful storm outside. However, Saburo was still surprised when he heard that they would not be able to return home that night, and groaned in frustration. The roads were too dangerous for his parents to drive over and pick him up, so he would have to spend the night at the school.

There wasn’t exactly much to do at a school when stuck overnight, so Saburo had volunteered to help the teachers set up the gym. He distributed sleeping bags, and had been handed a box of water bottles and snacks to give out. They ran out of water bottles first, and the teachers instructed him to go grab a few more cases from the cafeteria, handing him the keys. Saburo wondered if his height made them think he could carry several cases of water from the cafeteria to the gym on his own, but everyone around him seemed fairly busy, so he shrugged and left the gym. When he opened the door, Saburo almost walked into a small crowd of people, and let out a startled oh!

“Sorry, I didn’t see you there.” He quickly apologized, looking at the people in front of him. He recognized Saki, as she was in his class, and sort of recognized Akio, but did not recognize the girl with the green eyes. His gaze turned back to Akio, who, although was smaller, looked capable of carrying water bottles. “Actually, I hate to be rude, but Ishikawa-san, would you mind helping me out? I need to bring a few more cases of water to the gym and doubt I could carry them alone in one trip.”

naoko honestly couldn't believe her luck. not only had she somewhat gained the trust of a few of saburo's friends, saburo himself was right in front of her. 'oh man, talk about luck !' she thought, spinning on her heel to face the boy. she smiled at him, a charming, gentle sort of smile, and offered her hand. "would you like me to help?" she asked, tilting her head to the side. "I know I may not look it, but I have some serious upper-body strength. plus, I feel like I'm inclined to help out everyone, since I'm probably the one who brought the bad weather upon us." she giggled, sighing a little. it was a long-running joke within her family and her previous group of friends that naoko had always brought bad weather with her wherever she went. granted, she hated that joke and always ranted whenever someone mentioned it to her. but, of course, she needed a reason to offer help, not just out of the goodness of her heart.
she nodded at saki and akio, smiling to them both. "is that okay with you guys? I know we really haven't met, but I want to save you both from lugging stuff to-and-fro." she asked, directing it mainly at akio. as nice as he may seem, naoko was still on edge around the blonde. those green eyes were piercing and she just simply didn't trust the other. he hadn't given her a real reason to thoroughly hate him yet, 'unlike that dipstick itou' she thought, catching herself about to frown. naoko always had a problem with concealing her emotions when thinking about distasteful things. smiling apologetically at everyone around her again, she rubbed her arms, a nervous habit of hers she had developed over the years. she just hoped that the others didn't think less of her because of that little slip-up. 'damn you, itou, haunting me wherever I go. why can't you go annoy someone else?!'
to relieve herself of such angry and upsetting thoughts, naoko decided to introduce herself to saburo. "sorry for not introducing myself in the first place, by the way. I'm iwasaki naoko. it's nice to meet you!" she exclaimed, also directing her grin to akio and saki. "I hope we can all be friends sometime, you know? you all seem so cool..." she hummed, mentally smacking herself. 'talk about desperate, naoko. wow, just when I thought you couldn't get any worse. og well, I better watch out for that akio guy.'
