(GS3) Field: Hoshiko High School

[Cipher Izanagi]

Seifer was a bit late in coming to the meeting today as he'd had a lot to think about over the previous night, and yet he still showed up. However instead of one deck box at his hip there were now two, one black and one red. Odd. In any case, he didn't say a word to anyone as he entered the club, just waving slightly and sitting down, rubbing his eyes.

After the fight, Isabella added Alexander's name to a list on her phone. The actual purpose of the Cardfight Club was this, to find fighters who could possibly save Cray in its time of peril and build connections through them. It was due to the aftermath of The War of Liberation that sparked the idea of gathering fighters as a way of preventing threats from having taxing effects on Cray. This was pre-preparation, during a silence before the storm. It was just Isabella's wish that this list of fighters would never have to actually have a Vanguard fight where they would have to make such risks to the extent in which the fun is lost. That wouldn't be right.

"Thanks for the fight, Your Mom." She smiled at him.

A few other individuals had entered the room, as the leader she would have to introduce them. The one whom was patting Alexander's back was a well known figure from a year ago, though he mostly stays on the down low.

"This is Tsubasa Hayato, you guys may know him as the Gold Paladin Champion from the War of Liberation, but now he is going to be the acting coach of the club." After the introduction, she waited for the applause to dissipate before greeting other members. Sliffer walked in late, so she waved at him.

There was a guy who she noticed had a good time watching the Dimension Police clan fight. She went up to him and offered him a handshake as greeting. "Hello, how are you? I'm he idoru Isabella Hope from like TV, music videos, and stuff, you can call me Hana as well."

Noel was just watching the crowd and the fight that happened. Just sitting there was making her impatient and wanted to fight instead of spectating what was going on. She wanted to be part of the action. She noticed a few familiar faces that had walked in. Seifer, Tsubasa, and Darren were in the room but haven't noticed she was there. That was when Noel got up and just spoke up, "Anyone who wants to have a cardfight, come over here!"

[Golden Sage NovaRaizer]

Between the unfamiliar faces and Noel, whom he did notice, Darren was thinking more about his own deck then about what was happening around him. When Hana introduced herself, he didn't fully hear all of it, just the Hana part. He also heard Tsubasa's name and that he was the Champion of the Gold Paladin. He had no idea what that meant but it sounded cool so he didn't ask about it.

Darren smiled lightly and said, "Well I just got here so I don't know what all that means. My name is Darren. Nice to meet ya!" He took out his hand to shake hers before Noel started to ask for a cardfight. He couldn't help but be interested but he wanted to ask Hana something first. "You seem to be a pretty good cardfighter. Is everyone here like you or are you just the exception?"

[RosaliaIzanami]

Rosalia was surprised to find herself waking up at home in the morning, distinctly remembering the coffee shop before falling asleep the previous day. She figured it was thanks to Seifer that she was brought home safe and sound, a soft blush filling her cheeks in the morning hours at the thought. But she had to get to school, and was barely on time for her first class.

Throughout the day, it had been the usual, save for the fact she was carrying her violin with her. In its case, of course, and it was still very much new, so she was being extremely careful with it. Today she would also be expecting a package of her old violin stuff from home to arrive, but she could at least perform her audition for the Orchestra Club during her break between classes without her music stand.

By the end of the day, the redhead sighed in relief when the classes were finally over, wanting to fall asleep again. But she got to her feet, school bag and violin case in hand as she headed for the Cardfight Club. The announcement was... new... But Rosalia didn't ask. Actually, she wondered just how many people were going to show up today, and part of her didn't  want to be rushed with fight requests. I could skip today... But I didn't take part much because of what happened last time... Seifer is probably there already anyways... Sighing again to herself, Rosalia headed for the designated club room.

[Hope]

"Darren... Darren..." She repeated the name in her head. She will probably forget though, and he will end up with a nickname just like everyone else. Sad life.

In regards to his question, she wasn't really sure. She would like to say that she was just the same as everyone else, but that would be a lie seeing as how Vanguard was what helped her kick start her career as an idol, a Vanguard idol just to be exact. Her family lineage itself presents a whole spectrum of talented fighters destined to save Cray. The only problem was that she didn't want to come off as too cocky, nor as someone who lied about herself. So just introduced herself with her feats and titles so that he may just judge for himself.

"Um... I am the National Champion as well as someone who has the title of "Princess of Cray." In terms of my part on the War of Liberation,  I was the one whom chose and sent the Five Champions to fight in the final battleground in order to unseal the clans. That's an introduction of myself at the very least, and oh... My clan is Bermuda Triangle."

After that which seemed longer than she though, she gestured Sliffer to come over and speak with her if he can. She had to some quick faction busting in the Underground Slums first, but she really wanted to get to know him today along with a few questions in her mind that she wanted to ask. 

[Golden Sage NovaRaizer]

He blinked from Hana's impressive resume. It was no wonder she was so skilled if she had all of that under her belt. Though he didn't understand the second half of it, being a National Champion as well as a title like Princess of Cray sounded out of this world enough. The fact that she used Bermuda Triangle was odd as well. It wasn't one he had seen often so he didn't even know much about what it did.

"Sounds really cool," he said to her. "Maybe we can cardfight sometime. I dunno how I would do against a National Champ, but I'm not one to scare away from titles." Despite the uncertainty in his words, he did have a determined, almost confident tone. A strange contrast, likely because he was looking beyond what she was and more at who she was in front of her, another fighter he could challenge.

[Cipher Izanagi]

Seifer was sort of lost in his own thoughts for a bit, going over what Yugure had asked of him the previous night. It really didn't make much sense, and he still doesn't fully understand why he believed her or why he told her he'd help out. However, the brunette glanced up at the motioning of Hana, standing up and walking over, leaving his back still on the ground next to where he'd sat. "What's up?" he asked casually, placing his hand on his hip and shifting into a more relaxed standing position. Actually he really did wonder what Hana wanted with him. Maybe it was something to do with why he was late?

[Cece Lockhart]

Noel realized her open challenge from where she was sitting at was ignored from the larger crowd in front of her so she decided to walk up towards the group of people instead. When she walked up, she heard that girl was the national champion. Her? The national champion? And an idol? Interesting... someone I can look forward to in fighting! But... what's this War of Liberation? And the Five Champions? Sealed up clans?

Coming to the Cardfight Club might not be a waste of time after all. 

[Skyzlimitz]

"I told you, you should join ^^" Sky said walking up to Noel "Now how about I fufill that promise." Sky then pulled out his deck case and smiled.

[Hope]

"Mr. Carter!" She noticed that he was about start his fight, but it wouldn't hurt to greet him since he was the club supervisor.

She turned back to Sliffer who had a different atmosphere about him. Haruka-kun advised that she didn't go into the slums alone. Maybe taking him would be fine, but first of all she had to address the different aura which emanated around him. The difference was apparent, but she wouldn't know unless she fought.

"S-Sorry Darren, please make yourself comfortable! I have to fight this guy. Ikuzo Sliffer!"

Sliffer, the Red Dragon. He fit the bill when it came to his nickname. He was using BIG RED DRAGONS. Kagero, Dragonic Overlord. It was awkward at first, it reminded Hana of Haruka-kun so she was daydreaming for a bit. She shook her head and got back into her senses. Dragonic Overlord The End took her by surprise, she didn't know that anyone else had the card other than the one who's been spending her nights with. The mass number of retires as well as the deep pressure of The End pushed her into a corner but she managed to pull through with a break ride combo into a double Iori person blast. She ended the game by riding her single copy of the avatar, Duo Eye of Temptation, Reit.

After the game, she confirmed what she needed to. The difference from Shadow Paladin, she felt the fire in his fighting style.

"Alright Sliffer, this sounds ridiculous buuuut! We're going to blow up a gang base over in Umano!"

[Cece Lockhart]

Noel turns around and sees Sky walking up to her like if he expected her to be here. "That's fine with me, with that girl talking about some War of Liberation, I just have to fight!" Noel said getting pumped once more for some reason still unknown and new to her. They both sit down at a table that has fight mats within the table already. They place their starting Vanguards on the table and a fight is about to begin

[Cipher Izanagi]

Even with the loss the game was fun. Both decks had reached less than ten cards by the end of it, and it was fascinating seeing Bermuda Triangle like this. He himself was just happy that he had Kagero back again. In anycase, as he was putting the deck away into the red deck case he blinked staring at Hana. Did he just hear her right? Maybe it was some kind of game, so he'd go along with it. "Uh, alright. Let's go then. Lead the way since I have no idea where I'm going." he agreed to it rather quickly though he himself didn't know what he was getting into as he grabbed his bag off the ground and threw it over his left shoulder, still holding it up.

[Skyzlimitz]

"Mr. Carter! Sky heard his name and waved to Hana. he then heard "Alright Sliffer, this sounds ridiculous buuuut! We're going to blow up a gang base over in Umano!" he thought about saying something but thought "Eh, kids will be kids." "Alright Let's fight!" Sky said flipping over his vanguard.

[Golden Sage NovaRaizer]

Curiosity peaked as Darren saw Hana go off to that one person. She called him Slifer, an odd name but he would be sure to remember it. How could he excite her so much that she had to drop everything to go to him. He must have been some kind of lady's man.

He would have followed as well but that was when he saw that Noel was about to fight against someone. As curious as he was, he wanted to support his friend as well so he turned to the fight and watched on. He had to admit curiosity to what this person could do since Hana called him "Mr. Carter". Darren assumed he must be a teacher of some kind.
