It was May in Japan, a start of a new school year, and students were starting to pile in. The guys casually held their bags over their shoulder and the girls giggled while waving and running over to their friends. The halls were no different, some people hung outside of their classrooms while others arrived early and sat at their desks. Everyone was predominantly Japanese, but one girl stuck out like a sore thumb. The girl was taller than most of the other girls at school. she had her earphones over her ears listening to indie music (<span style="font-style: italic">'Mt.Washington'</span>by<span style="font-style: italic">Local Natives</span>) and she was wearing the same uniform as everyone else was wearing. What stood out was her dark skin and curly dark brown hair which was in a crinkly afro, her backpack was strapped to her back and her dark brown eyes looked around the halls in curiosity. Everyone stared at the girl in whispered, some in amazement, some in curiosity, and some in disgust (African-Americans weren't very highly regarded in Japan due to stereotypes seen on tv, Media was sadly to blame). The African American girl, Ekene stopped in front of 3C right before the bell rung. The foreigner rolled her shoulders back, took out her earphones, and strolled into the classroom.<br/><br/>---<br/><br/>Right as she walked into the classroom, the Sensei ((Author's note:you can choose whether it's a man or woman)) introduced her to the classroom. "Class, this is Ife, Ekene, a student from the United States and I would like for you all to give her a warm welcome," They said, they turned to Rin Tennouji's direction. The Sensei had heard about Rin's status as a deliquent from rumors,but they hoped that Rin would warm up to the transfer student. "Tennouji, I would like for you to show Ife around the school during lunchtime." The Sensei pointed to an empty chair next to Tennouji and started his lesson. Ekene walked towards the boy with a smile on her face, the students in the class stared after her warily as she walked over to the desk next to him. Ekene wondered why everyone was giving her concerned stares as she sat down at the desk, she turned and smiled to the guy again.<br/><br/>((This is bad! *bows many times* I'm so sorry, its been months since I rped!))
