Lupus looked up from his paper at the boy who had 'attacked' him. he raised an eyebrow, the red glow of his eyes clearly seen, even through the semi-long white hair that hung before his face. Beneath his right eye was a small birthmark in the shape of a crescent moon over a four pointed star, and he had three golden earrings on each pointed ear. He wore clothes similar to that of a medieval prince. His golden tail gave a twitch behind him. "Did I frighten you?" He asked. His voice was deep, smooth, and had a slight english accent. It seemed to belong to someone older then what he looked.

Phoenixheart walked to school and arrived a few minutes early. Currently, she was doodling on her right hand with a pen. Her left hand had smudges of pen ink evident on it. That was one of the things about being left handed. She always ended up with smudges of ink on her hand. She paused in her doodling when she noticed Sacha and another person. Sacha seemed a bit spooked by the person, so she walked up to them to see what was happening. "Hey, is everything alright here?" she asked as she approached the pair, her wings fluttering slightly.

Sacha was too focused on who or what this complete stranger was to see Phoenixheart approach, so when she spoke up, he reacted with a noise that could only be best described as a pterodactyl screech, jumping back another good three feet. He relaxed once he realized who it was but kept his skeptical glare at both of them. Sacha pulled one of the Bugles off his finger and popped it in his mouth, looking the strange newcomer up and down as he chewed. He decided he didn't like him, though that wasn't a surprise; he didn't really like anyone, initially. He waited for the stranger to make the next move as he slowly at the rest of the Bugles he was storing on his fingers.

Phoenixheart jumped a bit in shock when Sacha let out a loud screech and jumped back. 'oh, I must have spooked him' she thought to herself as she saw Sacha relax. She then noticed that he was glaring skeptically at both her and the new person. She tilted her head and raised an eyebrow at Sacha, curious as to why he was also glaring skeptically at her. She noticed that Sacha had now shifted his gaze to the newcomer, so she turned to face them. Her eyes widened, more in curiosity than fear, as she took in the person's strange appearance.

Chihiro, still rubbing the sleep from his eyes, leaned on his locker to check the schedule for his next class. He had to eat, change, and do his remaining assignments in the last 15 minutes, so he was pretty disoriented to say the least. A loud shriek snapped him out of his reverie and caused him to drop the thermos he was drinking tea from. His head snapped up in search for the source of the noise only to be greeted by none other than Sacha and Phoenixheart, along with some weird tall dude he didn't recognize. Wait- did Sacha make that noise? he realized that aside from the occasional mumble or laugh, it was the first sound he'd actually heard his friend make. Chihiro approached the small group and waved his hand in front of the satyr, who was nervously eating chips off of his fingertips. "You okay there?" he took a sip from his thermos, then pointed his thumb at the newcomer "also, who's this guy?"

He couldn't help but look at them silently. What a strange group of people. But who was he to judge, where he was from, strange was normal. The fact that he resemble his mother so much was an oddity in itself, considering all of his eight siblings were far from resembling her. "Is something wrong here?" He finally asked, directed at everyone before him, hoping that he would get an answer from one of them.

"You know what, I'm actually not sure" Chihiro admitted, looking over at his friends who were still staring wide-eyed at the stranger. "Are you new here? I'm Chihiro, by the way" he turned to the newcomer, taking in his peculiar appearance "also, nice outfit". The medieval prince getup took a lot of guts to pull off, and the cambion could respect that.

Sacha shrugged at both of the questions aimed towards him, holding the bag of Bugles out to Chihiro and Phoenixheart to offer some once he'd eaten the crackers off his fingers and was able to do so. The satyr refused to allow the stranger to hear another word, or screech, from him and even chewed on his food as quietly as he could. After Chihiro introduced himself, Sacha did hold up his hand, curled into a fist but with his wrist and fingers facing outwards, but he paused, reconsidered his actions, and slowly returned his arm to being wrapped protectively around his binder before signing another letter.

Phoenixheart continued to quietly and curiously observe the new person, but politely shook her head in response to Sacha offering her some Bugles. She wasn't very hungry at the moment, having eaten an actual breakfast before arriving to school, so the offer of food was appreciated yet politely rejected. she didn't think about introducing herself to the new person, even after Chihiro introduced himself to them. She also noticed Sacha had begun to sign his own name, but unless her name was asked, she would just stand there curiously observing the person.

"Lupus Shadows."
He replied with a polite bow.
"And yes, I am new to this place. My mother insisted that I go here to better aquaint myself with those closer to my own age."
It was apparent his outfit wasn't just a getup, his mannerisms were similar to the of what a medieval prince would have as well. His entire being seemed to say that he didn't exactly belong to this time and place.

Chihiro bit back the 'how old are you exactly?' that he almost blurted out. He didn't want to be rude, but there was something weirdly archaic about Lupus. He realized that neither of his friends made a move to introduce themselves and he wondered if something happened before he arrived. He accepted the Bugles that were offered to him and turned to Sacha and Phoenixheart, "Er, well I guess I'll get going to class" he shoved the now empty thermos into his bag, "See you two at lunch?" He took a few tentative steps back.

Phoenixheart decided that it would be best to head to class when Chihiro mentioned heading to his own. She grinned and replied "yeah, sure" when Chihiro mentioned seeing her and Sacha at lunch. She hoped that they would be going to the band room again. She had brought her acoustic guitar from her library today so that way she could practice. Currently, the guitar was inside her locker. After staying quiet for a few moments, she said "I should probably get to my class too.. I don't want to be late..." She vaguely wondered if she would see Sacha, Chihiro, or even the new person in her first class.

Sacha felt an excess of bad vibes from the medieval looking guy. He didn't trust him, and since Sacha certainly wasn't one to wait before making wild and usually incorrect judgements, Lupus was mentally deemed a threat. He took the Bugle bag back after Chihiro was done with it and rolled down the top to keep the chips fresh. After giving Lupus one last critical look, he turned and followed after Phoenixheart to first class.

Lupus shrugged to himself as he watched the three leave. Moments later he approached a random student to ask what his first class would be, which was history, or to be more exact, Mythology. He soon found his way to the class and took a seat in the back of the room. He didn't talk to anyone if they didn't talk to him, but he was fine with that.

Phoenixheart walked into her class and sat down a few seconds before the tardy bell rang. The students in the class started to stare at her wings, but a few annoyed glares sent their way from her had stopped the majority from staring at them. She had hoped that after one day of her being at school, not as many students would be staring at the wings, but apparently she was wrong. She vaguely thought about covering her wings with her hoodie, but quickly pushed the thought away. She wasn't going to let the other students get satisfaction from the fact that she was uncomfortable enough to try and hide what she was. She would just have to deal with the staring for now.

Chihiro walked down a few hallways before realizing that he was most probably heading to the same class as Phoenixheart. He only barely made it to the classroom before the bell rang and the teacher shut the door. He frowned when he realized that a whole bunch of students were still staring at her wings. He took a seat somewhat close to Phoenix, but tried not to make her feel like he was babying her. Chihiro took out his notebook and tried his best to listen to the lecture.

Phoenixheart saw Chihiro walk in and frown at the students who were still staring at her wings. She smiled and gave him a small wave as he sat in a seat close to her. She wondered why he didn't sit in the empty seat that was right next to her, but figured that it was because he didn't want her to feel he was being overprotective. She smiled a bit at that thought, glad that at least one person in the room was considerate of her feelings. She heard whispering and turned towards the source to see a group of kids whispering among themselves, presumably about Phoenixheart, as every so often, one of the kids would glance in her general direction. As they whispered, one of the students let out a small giggle while glancing at her. Phoenixheart rolled her eyes and turned her attention back to the lecture.

Sacha trailed after his friends, unabashedly plopping himself down in the empty seat beside Phoenixheart. He took note that the new kid was in this class as well and huddled the bag of Bugles in his lap to protect them from potential thievery.

The lecture began uneventfully, with the teacher's drone almost being enough to put Sacha to sleep. To keep himself awake, every so often he would kick the metal leg of his desk, producing a loud klanging noise, and then observe the rest of the class for reactions.

Phoenixheart shot Sacha a small smile as he sat down next to her and stifled a small giggle as the group of whispering kids jumped and broke apart at the loud noise Sacha had made when he kicked the leg of his desk. Those kids were starting to get on her nerves, so she was a bit glad that the noise had at least temporarily stopped the whispering and quiet giggles and snickers coming from the group. As she turned her attention back to the lecture, she took out a pen and began to doodle on her hand again.

Chihiro looked over to where Phoenixheart was sitting and realized that Sacha had taken the seat beside her. He kicked himself for not just taking a closer seat to her, especially since she didn't seem to mind the company. He and his friends could have suffered through this seemingly never-ending class together. He laughed a bit too loudly when a few students who looked like they were seconds away from nodding off to sleep jolted at the sound of Sacha kicking the leg of his chair. The satyr looked like he was barely staying awake himself. Chihiro, for the most part, was unabashedly chewing strips of gum and rolling their aluminum wrappers into a giant ball.
