(GS3) Field: Hoshiko High School

[Hope]

"Hello Haruka-kun." Isabella gave a wave after noticing him walk into the room.

They were going to be alone for a bit, at least until people start to trickle in. Along time is good, even if it isn't for long. She picked up her new deck and placed it on a table. It's been awhile since she had used Great Nature, well, she pretty much hasn't since her world tour so she was kind of a bit scared. Using Great Nature in a school setting, very fitting. After doing so she happily made her way to Haruka-kun and gave him quick kiss.

"You didn't give me one in the morning... unless you did while I was asleep." She teased. "Anyways are you up for a fight right now?"

Then she heard another person step in. "Oh, Dar- Darobo, hello!" she waved at him. Shortest alone time in history.

[Jello]

He turned his head away, pouting a little.

"I did! You even said you were awake... sleepyhead." Haruka teased back after a swift kiss stolen by Hana. He smiled a bit until he realized somebody else had come, causing Haruka to jump slightly. He looked up at the ceiling with the look of stupidity written across it.

He was frightened by a yawn. This boy was something else.

However to the challenge of a Cardfight... He was okay with that. Him and Overlord needed to get back into the spirit of things. One fight couldn't hurt, right?

"Y-Yeah, sure Hana. One fight though, I have to leave for work after this." He craned his neck, stretching it out... also cracking it a bit in the process.

Ow.

He placed his starting Vanguard down on his own fight mat... it was an Isabella Hope mat.

"I should've just brought my Ethics Buster mat." Haruka shook his head, waiting for Hana to join him.

[Golden Sage NovaRaizer]

Darren blinked at the name. "Darobo?" he said lightly. He couldn't help but laugh a little, not to make fun of it but because it sounded funny. Looking at the two, he wondered if he had interrupted something. The kiss was even more to that point. "Whoops?" he said lightly. Instead of getting in between the couple, Darren took out his deckbox and started to look through his units. He figured he wouldn't be able to do more than watch this fight before anyone else arrived. He wasn't the rude sort to get in the middle.

[Hope]

Egg Sage Minette vs. Dragonic Overlord The End.

And a couple of jokes between the two... The fight was a conversation between both of them, more or less i was just a lot of fun. The break ride turn as well as the crossride defense of Dragonic Overlord the End helped Haruka-kun last thorugh the numbers that Isabella's Egg Sage Minette made, but in turn Isabella was able to guard Ji Endo through drawing 4 or more  cards from the initial break ride turn, the turn after, and then from every proceeding turn, she would power up columns and draw two or one, still giving her an edge in terms of defense. Haruka-kun kept on healing which was rude altogether, but the game had many many laughs. In the end, the Egg beat the flames and didn't get fried.

After the match Haruka-kun told Isabella that he was spending the night with her sister Yukino today, somewhat to her dismay, but she didn't mind. Her main concern was if he was staying over at the manor, Dad-san might kill him. All in all, she can't do much but wish him luck for the day, and she didn't mind him spending a night with Yukino seeing as how they've spend the past -somany- together.

"So you said we needed talk over some thing while we were fighting right? Well we have the camping trip I guess." She winked.

A few more students from yesterday entered in and started their own fights as well, she gave them a small wave and they waved in return. She also decided to speak more to Darobo since they started the fight immediately as he came in. She feels like she would be ignoring him if she didn't.

"Darobo, how's that deck going?"

[Golden Sage NovaRaizer]

Darren watched the fight, the battle distracting him from his own deck. It made him laugh at times but it was also exciting to see. Great Nature and Kagero. He hadn't seen such a close battle in some time. When it ended, he couldn't help but smile. They were cute together.

When Hana went to him, he smiled lightly and said, "Not sure yet. I won't know until I try it once." Thinking about the camping trip made him wonder what the flyer meant by "Vanguard in real life situations, literally" but he wouldn't ask. He did have one thing on his mind though. "You said you used Bermuda Triangle yesterday. Do you have multiple decks or something?"

[RosaliaIzanami]

Today's classes weren't actually terrible for the redhead, perhaps because she felt more confident now that she had secured her place as First Chair Violinist in the Orchestra Club, but also because she was wearing the necklace from last night. Seifer's gift to her was a beautiful, white moon on a silver chain, and had two gems that caught the light with a red and blue shimmer. Any time one of her new friends in class asked about it, Rosalia felt the warmth return to her cheeks less and less with each explanation that she got it, well, from her boyfriend. So with each tell of her tale, she felt less nervous and more proud of her connection. Now for only the news to travel to their friends in the Cardfight club, though of course Hana probably already thinks they were together before actually confessing to each other.

During the day though, she stopped by the music room during her break, a habit she would be getting used to since she needed to continuously practice when she could with the Orchestra advisor because after school was the Cardfight club. It's hard to be in two places at once, you know? But this also meant she would be carrying her violin every day to the club.

At the end of the day, Rosalia made sure to stop and check in at the main office for the camping trip under the Cardfight club before actually making her way to the biology room. She wasn't as late this time, unlike yesterday. Walking into the room, Rosalia set her violin case on the table with her school bag, fishing out her deck from her bag and clipping it to her hip. Glancing around the room once settled, she noticed she had just missed Haruka versus Hana, and Darren was there too. I hope he isn't mad about me rushing out of the shop yesterday.. Speaking of which... She pulled out her phone to text said reason of why she ran out of the shop:

Hey Seifer~ Where you at this time? I'm in the Cardfight club.

[Jello]

Haruka wouldn't say it was a crushing defeat, considering he sacked triggers left and right, even double critical trigger checks on his breakride turn causing a bit upset in damage. If Haruka had one more hit in from there it would've been game, but with the immense draw power off of Egg Sage and Chatnoir, there was just no getting through. Not to mention, another copy of Ji Endo didn't show up until near the end of the game, Haruka's chances of getting that to hit were already slim to none as it was.

However after the loss, Haruka was explaining his plans to stay with Yukino. Hana understood, and forwarded some caution to him if he was staying in the manor, considering Mr. Espoir is still there... Spooky.

Hana made a comment about the nights they had spent together and what they had-err, done and Haruka was just totally going to space out that conversation. Even his mind didn't need to know what she meant by that but he had a pretty good idea.

F-Forceful... Rough?!

You sir, do not know your own strength-

I DON'T WANNA HEAR IT K THANKS BAIIIII

Haruka started furiously blushing, turning away from Hana as to not alert to her that her little comments actually got to him. He checked through his deck, realizing how little his starting vanguard was doing for him recently. The past three games or so, and not a single search got him what he needed. Maybe a lineup change was in order.

Another person came in, following a bit after Da-Da..Darobo?

"Hey Rosalia. Just missed a pretty nice faito! Where's Seifer?" Haruka was covering his face with his hand. The blush was strong with this one.

[Hope]

"Multiple decks?" She thought about which ones she had for a moment.

"Well, yeah. Each of them have their own story though. Bermuda Triangle is my main clan, the one that I feel the best with. Like everyone else has a deck that they just connect to that way right? I have a deck for Garmore which was left to me by the guy who got 2nd place at nationals a year ago. It was originally a Royal Paladin Garmore deck, but now its a Liberator. When Bermuda Triangle was sealed away I used Angel Feathers in their place as I tried to get them back... then Great Nature, I got today as a gift from a friend who I met during my World Tour." She realized that she kind of said more than needed to be, "Ahh... I mean!.. Sorry that was more than you asked, but I love to tell the stories of how I go them and become like an old lady sometimes..." She looked away for a bit and thought about helping him try out his deck.

"Well I guess I can help you with trying that out! I still need to get myself familiarized with this one myself. Are you up for a game?"

[Golden Sage NovaRaizer]

Darren blinked at all that she said. He didn't know anything about the War of Liberation so hearing about clans being sealed away was odd. To him it was like a special rule of the National Tournament that she wasn't allowed to use her main clan. He would probably better understand what it meant later but he was following it well enough. That World Tour sounds fun, he thought lightly. Maybe I can be a part of something like that someday.

At the idea of testing his new deck, he stood up and said, "Sure, we can have a go. After seeing that deck work, I am pretty curious what I can do against it." He set his deck onto the mat, excited to be fighting someone so strong as his first challenge with this deck of his.

[ShadowCM]

Khudus was walking away from teachers lounge. He had missed few classes after lunch as he actually fell asleep while thinking on Vanguard strategies. He was lucky not to get into trouble but now had to be careful. As he was walking down the hall he noticed a lot of commotion coming from one of the rooms. Curious he peeked in and saw a ton of Vanguard fighters fighting while others were just watching. Ohh this must be the club I heard about. Maybe I should check it out. Might get some ideas for my deck. he walked in and looked round for a good place to watch what was going on. Then he noticed two fighters getting ready to fight so went to check it out.

[Cece Lockhart]

Noel now finally used to the school layout was able to attend classes normally. Good news for her day was that she had a smooth time with her work since she most of the material already from home schooling and was able to catch up in no time. The bad news was that during her introduction to the class, she had no choice but to mention she was a member of the Kusanagi family.

"My name is Noel Kusanagi. I hope we can all become good friends!"
The entire class stayed quiet in a bit of fear and shock. A Kusanagi kid in a regular high school? It was unheard of and the rest were infatuated by her looks and Noel saying her introduction sealed their souls. It was like that until someone decided to yell out saying to be careful with her or her family would protect her by any means. After that, no one wanted to approach her and if she looked at someone, they quickly ran away in fear of their lives.

Ugh... I really didn't want this to happen so soon. I hope I can prove to them that I am different and won't harm them or anything. I'm just a regular girl attending a regular school...

It wasn't her fault her dad was a merciless and tyrannical businessman and shareholder of many well known technology companies. Noel didn't asked to be in that life style but she just pressed on and managed to finish her school day without any serious issue. Before Noel knew it, classes were over. She then proceeded to sign up for the camping trip. I never been camping before... I hope its fun... she thought to herself as she filled out the sign up sheet.

Noel then proceeded to the Cardfight Club and opened the door. "Excuse me, I'm coming in~"

[RosaliaIzanami]

Rosalia glanced over when she heard her name, tilting her head slightly at Haruka. He had his face covered.. Was he embarrassed? What exactly did she miss in the fight just now? Trying to make him feel easier, the female answered casually. "Heyo Haruka~ As for Seifer.. I don't really know. I just texted him, and he hasn't gotten back to me yet.." she answered, her voice growing quiet at the end. Well, she couldn't help that. She was still curious as to what Seifer did yesterday, saying he was with Hana and Tsubasa, but other than that, she knew nothing else. Was today going to be something similar? Where he was going to be busy helping out a friend somewhere and she wasn't allowed to come along?

She debated on asking Hana just what they did yesterday, but it seemed she was about to fight Darren instead. So for now, Rosalia walked over to actually watch the fight this time, leaving her violin case with her school bag. "Good luck Darren~ Good luck Hana~"

Then she heard the door open again just as the fight seemed to start, looking over to see Noel. "Oh~ Hi Noel! How was your day?... And you haven't seen Seifer around, have you?..."

[Jello]

So. Many. People. Why were so many people suddenly showing up? Haruka was sure the last time the Cardfight Club met, it was at least half the amount of people, assuming Neo, Seifer and Alexander were to show up. But suddenly another girl, presumably... wait, Noel?

"Hey.. Noel- Wait, you...

...

.....

.......

You're the girl that Tsubasa brought to the cafe. How are you feeling?" Haruka finally uncovered his face, not really worrying about the heat up there. It was going away quickly enough, now that Hana was occupied with a fight herself. He was actually genuinely interested in what was going on here, as he had never met the girl before then. And even when he got a couple words to her, he was too busy with Hana then to properly speak.

"You joined the Cardfight Club as well?" He asked, even though the answer was obvious.

[Cece Lockhart]

Noel looked up from looking at her deck, "Huh? Oh, yeah... that's me alright... and you are that... waiter from said cafe right? But I'm doing a lot better now compared to the last time you saw me with Tsubasa. And you should tell whoever made that hot chocolate that they deserve a raise, it was really tasty. It revived me a lot then." Noel barely caught a glimpse of the boy but felt like she could trust him to talk so casually like if they knew each other already.

"I joined yesterday but I don't think I saw you here though. I thought it would be fun to be apart of this club since I can meet fellow fighters and see how strong I am against others. By the way, I don't know your name, mind telling me?" Noel felt like a person again considering she felt like a human repellent since everyone in class avoided her like the plague.

[Golden Sage NovaRaizer]

The battle started with a surprise. Hana chose to use her Bermuda Triangles. It definitely made him feel honored that she wanted to use her main clan against him. He wanted to do his best to make sure he would give it a worthy battle. As the fight raged, Darren chose to ride his Daikaiser early on. His thought was that having Grade 3 early would help offense and defense, but Hana used her hand as he did and eliminated the advantage. I guess she really is a National Champ, he thought as he reached four damage.

He had two different Grade 3s in hand, Daikaiser and Daiyusha, and Hana only had 2 damage. He needed a critical trigger to end it if he rode Daiyusha, but since she healed from 3 damage to 2, it felt like too much of a risk. He rode Daikaiser, hoping that doing 2 Break Rides in a row would be able to end it. Much to his surprise, he got the critical as well as a Grade 3 which would have broken guard.

His next turn was his last, Hana's break ride into Reit was more than his hand could handle, especially with a critical trigger to seal the deal. Even with a loss, Darren felt happy that he was able to do so well against a fighter like Hana. He had nothing to prove, but he felt like he did his best and gave her best clan a worthwhile battle.

"You're as good as I thought," he said to her as he started putting away his units. "But I was closer than I thought I'd be. For my deck's first match, it was really fun."

It was at that point he noticed the room filling. Now Noel and Rosalia were here. He wondered if they saw his fight. He didn't know whether to be proud or embarrassed that he could have won and let it slip.
