[AU] Soulmate

Ten...Nine...'Good job, boy, you do me proud'...Eight...Seven...'Day...please, don't do that again...'...Six...Five...'Dad, where's Mom?'...Four...Three*crack*'Don't worry, boy, she needed to go anyways, I can't have anyone holding us back, not even h-'...Two...One*crack*'Day, do what you have to in order to live on, remember our deal!'...Zero*crack*'Make them pay...make them all pay...'


'Crack!' Day's eye's shot open at the sound of a baseball bat connecting with a ball. His breathing was heavy, though from his position underneath an old tree, facing away from all the other new students, all of the incoming Fall Transfer Students. The blond haired boy seemed lost for a moment as he looked around, though after another, he seemed to quickly calm down, bringing a hand up from his side to rub the sleep out of his eye's, "I fell asleep again..." The boy murmured, his hand going from his face to fix the cap atop his head, his long hair flattened between his back and the tree behind him. Sighing, Day let his hand fall to his side again and he finally took the time to look in the direction of the many new transfer students that were walking towards the main building of the school, and then to the baseball field below the hill he sat on, a giant lone oak tree at his back. Looking at the activity on the field, Day guessed that the athletes had just started practicing. Sighing, Day looked forward again and stared at the incoming students again and then to the building they were heading towards, "...Welcome to HSYMA..." He said, trailing off again as he leaned his head back again, setting it against the tree as he closed his eye's again, though he made sure to stay awake this time, knowing what waited for him if he were to fall asleep.

OOC: Day transfered to the school in the spring time, just so you know.

Also, I took the liberty of finding a possible picture of what could be the HSYNA Campus: media.animevice.com/uploads/0/6872/723408-school.jpg
Tell me if you find something better.

Day had been dozing off once more as he was approached by Ari, unknowing of the girl's presence until he felt her tapping on his shoulder. His eye's opening up quickly, Day found himself looking up at a face he already recognized,though only faintly, "...Arrieta Rei, sister of a world renowned celebrity and an ingenious scientist..." Suddenly sighing, he shook his head, "Excuse me," he said apologetically before motioning to the ground beside himself, "Go ahead. I was just about to leave anyways." He said, pulling a few books and folders that had been off to the side towards him; all faceless books with no sign of title nor author. Standing, he glanced at the girl once more, "Welcome to HSYMA, the most glorious school for the magically gifted...I'm sure you'll fit right in." He said,chef ore he began walking off in the direction of the building that the new students were walking into. As he walked off, a symbol was shown off on the back of his school uniform; a blank white circle, which symbolized Day's raking in the school, the lowest ranking class...

Stopping, Day sighed, closing his eye's for a moment as he faced away from the girl. Turning around, Day smiled at the girl, "My name is Day Wing, and I'm sorry, but if I don't hurry and get back to the school, I'll be in quite a bit of trouble." He said. Turning again, he once more started off, "You should hurry and get to the school. It's important that you attend the introduction ceremony, as well as take your quiz, else you won't receive your ranking..." He said in monotone. Day quickly made his way to the school and quickly disappeared among the crowd of new students.

Unknown to himself, Day had accidentally left one of the title-less black books under the tree, one filled with sketches of what could have easily been described as ingenious magic algorithm, complex spells, and what seemed to be created spells and magic weapons.

Day kept to himself and was rather quiet as he moved easily by new students, ignoring the occasional attempted jab at his pride, mostly due to his rank. Even though they were new to the school, the new students themselves obviously already found themselves superior. Day ignored them completely, not at all affected by the crude comments as he turned and slipped out of the crowd, making his way through as side door and into a hallway that only a few other students were using As he made his way down the hallway, Day glanced out at the occasional window into the room large room that the new students were going into where they would receive their uniforms and official ranking, as well as get a chance to check out the various clubs that were at the school that they could join. As the blond teen made it to the end of the hall, he took a turn into a door and once more appeared in the large room, though this time not surrounded by the crowd of new students as he walked around aimlessly, looking around.

Day sighed in frustration as he walked along a small rock-paved path that winded throughout the park like area that had been built in to the school grounds. Two weeks had passed since he had lost his personal notebook, and while he wasn't necessarily worried about the fact that he had lost it, he was worried about anyone finding out that it belonged to him. To any other student of a low rank, it would only seem like a book another would use for studying, but to anyone more talented, what was inside the book would have made sense...

Shaking his head, Day took a quick deep breath as he walked, he didn't want to worry about the details now. As he rounded around a small path, glancing at the large trees on either side of the path and the many leaves that had changed colors, he noticed the small hill with the old oak tree just up ahead, off to the side of the path . Stopping on the path, Day stared at the tree for a few seconds, not seeing the new girl he had met during the opening ceremony sitting in its shade. Deciding to take a break, Day sighed and made his way off the path and towards the tree. As he approached it, he finally caught sight of Ari as he stopped in front of it.

Frowning, Day stared down at the teen for a moment, seeming to study the girl for a moment before he sighed and turned to leave, "Best not bother her..." He said to himself.

Day stopped when he heard Ari's voice from behind. Turning to look at her, he stepped forward when she held out his book, gently taking the object of his interest back from her as he listened to her talk. After she was finished speaking, Day stood over her for a moment, staring down at her, his book held in front of him, before he turned his attention back to the book in his hand and he opened it, scanning through a few pages for moments at a time, before he finally closed the book. Looking back to Ari, Day remained calm as he spoke, "I know that you're new to the school, so please understand," He said, holding the book up as he spoke. "You can't tell anyone about what you saw in this book. In fact, it'd be better if you just forgot you saw anything..." He said, making it sound like a request. Lowering the book again, Day bowed his head to the other teen, "I appreciate you returning it though...thank you." He said, before he once more went to leave the girl again.

Stopping once more, Day sighed. Turning to face Ari, Day moved the small book to the pocket of his coat, keeping his hand over it, as if afraid that he might lose it again, "It was the only thing my father left me when he died. Originally...the book only had a few ideas in it, but the algorithm behind those ideas, the possibility of bringing these ideas to reality. That's mine..." He said, catching the girl's eye's, his own with a challenging look to them, "Any other questions..." He said slowly, hoping that if he just told her what she wanted, she would just stop worrying about the book.

Day was quiet as he listened to the other teen, his eye's loosing their dangerous glint when she looked away from him. At her other question, his frown lessened, and he seemed more confused rather than angered, "Screwed it up?" He repeated, staring at her for a moment before he shook his head and turned away from her, "What's with you people...Just because I'm unranked doesn't mean I'm stupid..." He said, an angered tint in his words as he started walking away again.

Day was quiet as he finally stepped off the grass and back onto the path of the park, not caring to look back in Ari's direction as he turned and started walking in the directions of the school again. As he walked, all of his anger seemed to finally go away, though as it disappeared, confusion replaced it. Day had been generally confused as to why Ari had questioned his ability when it came to the notebook he had and what it contained, true, Day wasn't allowed to take any courses with other students in his rank, for a reason he was never allowed to know, but all of the professors that he always studied with had always told him that what he knew, and what he was being taught, was about as advanced as what the lowest ranking students were all being taught, and while it had disappointed Day at first to know that his skills were only "Sub Par." As his exam proctor had said, he had come to accept the fact that he just wasn't good enough, but after what Ari had said to him...
