"What the hell is this, a made for tv high school movie?" Asura said to himself, fixing his shirt with an incredibly annoyed expression on his face. A couple of years ago, he would have broken  both that idiot's arms for grabbing him that way. He guessed all his dad's training sessions were starting to pay off. Not that he didn't still<span style="font-style: italic">want</span>to do it.<br/><br/>Grabbing the backpack he had dropped, he followed the map to his first class, which he didn't bother to check the name of. He had so many things on his mind at the time that he didn't even notice the teacher introduce herself, much less her asking him to introduce himself to the class.<br/><br/>"Asura...? Are you with us?" She asked, politely, but obviously slightly annoyed. "Could you give an introduction to the class, please?"<br/><br/>"Huh? Oh, sorry." He said, absentmindedly. "Uh.. my name is Asura Nirgal. I'm originally from here, but I've lived out of the country for the last seven years or so because of my parents' jobs. I doubt any of you would remember me."<br/><br/>Gazing out across the classroom while the teacher decided where he would sit, he noticed the dumb jock and frightened looking girl from his encounter in the hallway. He hadn't paid much attention to her back then, but for some reason, after seeing the girl's face clearly, something just clicked in his mind. He knew he had known her in the past, but couldn't quite place her. But it had been the better part of ten years since he had been in Gideon, so he wasn't particularly concerned.<br/><br/>"Um.. you can sit there, next to Delilah." The teacher said, finally, and she pointed to the empty desk next to the girl. Asura hesitated for a moment, but took his seat, and began to remove things from his backpack. Then he realized that he didn't know what to grab, because he didn't know what class he was actually in.<br/><br/>"Um..." He said, raising his hand to get the teacher's attention. "Sorry, but what class was this again?"<br/><br/>Apparently the laughs from his other classmates didn't make his teacher very happy, because she glared at him. "This is<span style="font-style: italic">Speech</span>. I know that it's your first day, but please try to keep up, Mr. Nirgal."
