rakuen | On the platform: Meet the new characters!

As you all crowd onto the platform and peer through the thick fog that chills the air, you are met by four girls and five boys. One of the girls is a somewhat humanoid grey-skinned, finned alien, but the rest all seem human. All nine are in uniforms that would match if not for the colour differences - skirts and trousers, waistcoats, and light summer shirts that seem totally inappropriate for the dense fog. They're all sodden and cold, and most are irritable. Each has a beret with a crest pinned to the front - three depicting a shield on green, the other six a sword on red.

At the first lull in the chatter, one sickly-pale, shield-crested girl speaks up, cutting through your conversations with her cold, soft voice.

"Attention, please."

She explains that the nine of them are the current prefects of Rakuen, representing the two schools on the island. Nanami, she points to herself, Yuri and Lelouch of Fortitude; and Santana, Flynn, Feferi, Gino, Nephenee and Kevin of Conquest. She doesn't care to explain why the prefects in red and white outnumber those in green and black two to one.

Santana interrupts, "Yeah, yeah. Look, come over when your name is called so we can all get inside." They all move to stand in two groups some distance away from each other, and the two that spoke read off names from their clipboards.

"Really magnificent, awesome boobs! Kesesesese~" she smirked but then she pauses. Who was this? Blue eyes, blond hair... definitely a guy and that voice... "Amerika? Why are you a man?"

Well she knows who he is at least, that was a start...right? Had to be, because otherwise he would be just as confused as she was at the moment. Staring at the Prussian woman for a moment or two before scratching the top of his head. "I've always been a guy. But why are you a chick?" Because that's what's more important here at the this point in time, was she supposed to be like that girl Estonia or something? If so then he can see a lot of headaches in the future.

She was starting to suspect that this would happen often. She had just run into a girl version of Belarus and now...

"I've always been a woman, but last I checked, so were you!"

"Haha! No way dude! I've always been a guy!" You're still amusing him even as a girl. Though that doesn't make this situation any less strange.

"Are you sure?" she asked. "Kesesesese~ Then that means there's no crazy sex change doctors around!"

She really does play way too many video games... first she thought this was Silent Hill, and now...who knows.

"Haha! Nope, that would be to weird anyway." Though the young nation doubted that things could get any more weirder than they already were. But hey, he would keep an open mind for anything that may happen in the future. Not that he was really hoping for anything else strange to happen.

"So where is this anyway? And why are we here?" she's curious and if this America was anything like the America that she knew, well hopefully he would give information easily.

He doesn't give information away that easily! "I have no idea why we're here! But this place is called Rakuen or something. It's supposed to be a school." So maybe he does. But that's because you're Prussia, and he at least somewhat likes the guy you, so the girl Prussia must not be all that bad...right?

"Eine Schule?" she asked, blinking. "But I've already learned a lot of things!"

"Well you're old enough, so you'll probably be a teacher or something." He gave a silent nod to himself before a pleased smile made its way onto his face. He was clearly happy with his deductive reasoning on that. "Just like me!"

She opened her mouth to say something and then the idea of America teaching fully registered... The only thing she could see America teach was... "You must be teaching some sort of Sport class! Right?"

Oh come on, she's taught him stuff before...well her male self did anyway. But he would guess it was the same deal with his female self. "Haha! No way! I'm teaching them something entirely different!" Of course he wasn't teaching a sports class. If did then most of the young people here would probably be laying in a hospital bed by now. "I'm teaching government."

She had taught his female self. She was no different in her teacher style... the poor students.

"Government?" she wondered out loud. America's idea of government was, if she recalled correctly, something entirely too complicated and controlled by too many people. "Your students must be confused..."

She shook her head, "So what am I going to teach?"

"Hm, no idea. I was told after I got here." That is, he only figured it out when he went to the classroom he was supposed to be using to teach his students. And of course this being America, almost everything that he was saying was either going over the student's heads, or wasn't being taken seriously.

Honestly, what government was better than his? Absolutely none in his book. "I can help ya find out though!" He continued, he is the hero after all.

"I must be teaching a really awesome class! So you can help me find out? I really want to know!" she said. Secretly, she loved teaching.

"Haha! Of course I can! I am the hero." He grinned, now to just figure out where to begin. Something that wasn't all that hard or easy around here. But hey, they would find out eventually.

It was that eventually part that she worried about.

"So why did they kidnap us to teach? I'm not a cheap teacher!" even if she loved it.

"No idea. But we're not just teachin' either." He started to frown in thought. In truth he was actually asking himself just how they were able to kidnap them in the first place. Normally such a thing would not be an easy thing to do.

"Then what else are we doing?" she wondered. She could handle teaching, but what else.

"Apparently this place has some sort of combat sport thing in place. It's like a mix between MMA and paintball. Anyway, they pretty much force everyone to fight each other. And people can actually pull weapons out of their chests." To him that last part still screamed awesome. Extremely awesome at that. But the first part was not so awesome.

"Like gladiator battles?" she asked and then... "WAS?! Weapons come out of people's chests?" That was disturbing.

"Haha! Yes, and yes!" Well she seemed to have been becoming rather excited. He wasn't entirely certain if it was a good excitement yet or not though. "But they don't seem to be real weapons though."

She looks down at her chest and pokes it. It would be strange if a weapon came out of it, but if they weren't real...

"Then what's the point?" she blinks at him.
