The children looked at the lady and blinked a few times. None of them had really been taught how to talk to strangers and yet here was one asking them a lot of questions. She seemed nice enough, but it wasn't like they knew her really. Blinking a few times it was finally Ise that spoke. "Umm, we are here with our teacher. He teaches us language and stuff." with that Kota glared at ise and whispered "You aren't suppose to talk to stranger stupid..." Ise glared back and said "Mr. Nobuyori is right over there STUPID. He won't let anything happen to us!" and with that the three children, each grabbing his or her plate of sushi, ran off towards Nobu.
In the mean time Nobu was looking at the girl as she smiled a bit and proceeded to ask his name. He smiled lightly as he heard her name, assuming she was from a noble family like his own, and politely replied "My full name is Azai Nobuyori. It is a pleasure to meet you." as he finished introducing himself the three children ran off and quickly tugged on his arm "Mr, mr, this weird lady tried to talk to us!" Nobuyori looked at them curiously as they pointed. The moment he saw who had been talking to them his eyes grew wide. it was the strange ninja girl from before! There wasn't really time to run, so what she he do? Instead he quickly turned to the foreigner he was talking to, shuffling the kids into the booth with them with his free arm and smiling like nothing happened ask the foreigner "So, what country are you from if I may ask?"

"Hai. Sensei-san. That's very kind of him," she commented and nodded politely as they spoke one by one. 'I'm sure he wouldn't with honest answers like that.' Just as she did consider rewarding them did the children already have other plans. Suishoku's eyes lit up briefly and chuckled as the children retreated away to their Sensei's side. When one of the kids pointed at her, Suishoku adverted her eyes to look at the brand of soy sauce being served. It's not like there is much reason to hide but even she fully understood that waving would be too out of character for just barely being acquaintances. 'So they were good kids after all, even down to the cute little retreat.'[/i] Looking down at her lap, she kept the snacks with her and moved back to her original table for her lonely grilled eel.
Dropping the little taiyaki cakes back into her shopping bag, Suishoku promptly snapped her chopsticks and at the sweeten sushi as is. Ah, the warm grilled touch and the sweet taste of the glaze always added atop the eel. While thinking up a possible idea of what to do about the snacks and savoring the last sushi bite disappear, Akarui's started exclamation made her keel over to cling to the table in an effort to not hack up eel bits of vinegar rice. What on earth was what, indeed! Nearly choking her like that. Clenching her glass of water, Suishoku drank about the whole glass still she called down to turned her head at Akarui in hopes of an explanation for her action.

Cassandra looked over at the three children and noticed that a girl had walked over to them and was now having a conversation with the three of them. See if Cassandra had done something like that as a child she would most likely have been punished severely, even if it was the stranger who approached her but oh well, her parents were overly strict like that, classic British royalty for you. Now now, the interesting thing was that this rather charming young gentleman was a part of the Nobuyori family or clan as they were called in Japan? Oh what did it matter, they were pretty much the same basic thing after all. Now what did matter was the fact Azai was a member of that family which according to what Cassandra knew made him descended from nobles even if wasn’t one currently, like let me explain it a bit more clearly: she meant that he was from noble blood and entitled to the right of being nobility but wasn't actually a noble currently in terms of titles or status.
She was about to comment on that and say something nice to him but it was at this moment that the children Nobu had entered with came over and tugged on his arm. They were most likely worried about the lady that had tried to talk to them and while that was perfectly normal it did kind of annoy Cassandra slightly that she would no longer get to have a quiet adult conversation with him, she was slightly glad that he was able to look out for those under his charge. She kept up her warm smile as the three children where shuffled into the booth nearby and as Azai turned to ask her what country she was from. “Well young master Nobuyori-san I am from England, the county of Devonshire” she smiled and bowed her ead slightly out of respect remember that people in Japan should always be addressed by their family named and with what she hoped was the correct honorific.

As Akarui exclaimed to what she did, she heard someone choking. She figured, she must’ve surprised someone in her remarks. Turning around, she looked to see who it was and it was none other than, the second year, Suishoku Yuubae. Feeling terribly troubled for causing what she did, she nodded her head in response and said,”Ah, sorry.” Along with waving her hand towards the person to indict that she noticed.
However, while she was apologizing, the doors of the sushi bar was broken as a person was, based on guess, slightly throw threw as he hit the counter hard enough for stuff to fall off. Even…Akarui’s second plate of sushi. ”M-M-M-M-M-MY SUSHI PLATE!!!!!! NOOO!!!!! Exclaimed Akarui to herself as she put her hands on her head. Even though, she wasn’t the only one who had her plate thrown off the counter with the food now all over the floor.
Even the sushi chiefs and part-time workers, who were just normal high school or college students, are now frightened of whatever is actually really going on. As no one had a clue in what the situation was either. However, that was the last thing on Akarui’s mind as she sit there pouting over her lost second plate of sushi. Since she had paid for some to go and some to eat here.
Suddenly, a boy appeared, and it was Kamui Sakamoto, causing trouble or as he claims that trouble comes to him. Still, it didn’t matter because; he too, was a Bugei Academy student who just transferred recently into the school, more like he was late. However, he’s gotten away with so many troubles because he just pays the amount of sum and again, doesn’t get punished for it. ”That was pathetic, you scumbag,” said Kamui to the guy, who out of nowhere picked up a fight with him, who is now scratched up pretty good and is unconscious.

Suishoku looked at Akarui, getting a good look now to remember her as the goth loli a few days ago. While that was all fine and dandy, she took a napkin and coughed into it, her throat still irritated in the process of being started and having food bits jostled about. Upon Akarui's apology, she could only hack a muffled cough as if trying to say it's fine. Unable to speak for the time being, she looked at Akarui's hand jestures then turned about fully in her chair to see the true source of the disturbance.
To be frank, she had no idea who the stranger was with his dishuffled appearance. Once could only assume he was another student at the school but that was up in the air when there was also another guy in the area, er, somewhere. She had to leave her seat and step around the little wall section to discover the other tattered up male of unknown origin. In her head, she already heard the bell ring at a boxing match go off just by the sight of the poor guy. Letting out another cough, Suishoku lowered her napkin enough to stare at the victor with her eyes half closed in a pensive look while playing along to the pretend imagery her mind cooked up when speaking, "And our champion is....?" Purposely leaving it hanging to see if the guy was smart enough to catch on and introduce himself in some form. Openly getting a smart ass comment was also on the betting tables too if someone around here wants to play the tough shonen type.

Nobu couldn't help but look outside at the city. It was weird to think of a Sushi shop that looked ancient, and a bunch of older looking houses, and yet not far from here rested a bunch of industrial complexes and skyscrapers. This world, and in fact the students of the academy themselves, felt like a serious contradiction. Where they really keeping up ancient tradition, or simply grasping on to strands of the past? Looking at the foreigner he asked "What do you think of the academy? Isn't it weird that we are trying to preserve the past so hard? I'm sure where you come from you have sky scrapers everywhere, and all kinds of modern things."
As nobu said this, he lowered his chopsticks only to realize that between talking to this foreigner, feeding the trio of kids with him, and trying to avoid a creeper ninja he had never actually gotten himself some sushi. Blinking at the obviously empty spot on the table before him he looked at the kids "I'm going to get myself some sushi. Please try not to bother Ms. Cassandra" and with that he turned to Cassandra herself "I'f you'll excuse me" with that said he got up from the table. Looking at the sushi chef he paused a moment. Between himself and what was delicious, expensive sushi was a single person he wanted to avoid. Though, upon closer inspection, she seemed quite pre-occupied with someone else? Using this chance Nobu tried to shift over to the sushi table. Looking at the chef he said "Fried eel over rice, with a side of seaweed salad please." The guy behind the counter looked at him a bit confused "didn't you want a drink with that?" he asked. Nobu simply blinked and declined. it wasn't common for him to have drinks with his meals.

Cassandra had for the most part been enjoying her visit to this sushi store by a great degree minus the difficulty she had with the chopsticks anyway but now that she had received some instruction upon the subject she was finding it rather easy to eat with them and she did have to admit this was a very good meal or at least it was a good meal until the sushi joint’s doors got thrown open as an older male got thrown into the counter which caused the whole thing to shake and as a result Cassandra’s food got knocked upon the ground. Ok, now she was slightly annoyed, so annoyed in fact that her grip upon the chopsticks tightened by the amount required for them to break in half with an audible and rather easily heard cracking sound. So her meal had been ruined but that was okay, she could simply buy another.
She smiled to Nobu and sat in silence for a few moments as she thought about the answer to his question, she had never really thought about that too much, her powers and her item where just assets to be used to further one’s own power or position. As a result of the country she was raised in Cassandra never really had got in touch much with the Japanese part of her family’s bloodline hence why she didn’t care about the past of her items former owner or owners. “I have never really thought about it, as far as I am concerned it would be a waste to not use these items but, you wish to know what I think of your academy? Well, I believe it has good educational facilities and well trained staff but beyond that I have not yet formed an opinion as a result of my rather short time here” It was true, she hadn’t been here for more than a month at the most and as a result hadn’t had sufficient time to form an opinion about the school’s student body and political movements.
Realizing that she hadn’t ordered a replacement plate of sushi Cassandra stood up and followed Nobu to the counter she ordered a replacement dish of the same type as she had been enjoying it and while waiting for it to be prepared she returned to her seat and sat in a dignified manner awaiting her meals creation and the return of her new friend, at least she hoped her fellow royalty would deem her as a friend or acquaintance at the very least.

”Kamaui Sakamoto? The late transfer-in student thats the one causing that entire racket out there?” Thought Akarui to herself as she switched her gaze from seeing to who the person was after looking away from her second of plate of sushi. It was him indeed. However, who was the one under the rubble of glass shards? Was it also a Bugei Academy student as well? Or just a normal human being that just happened to have passed by and was ticked off and just got into the fight without realizing it? If so, this isn’t the only trouble that’ll spur among the school’s staff but upon the students who are caught leaving the school premises without ‘permission’, in which again, doesn’t probably even exist at this point in time and never has. However, the kid was mostly known to pick fights with the strong students of the academy as well. And so he’s done that even with the lower ranks of the ‘strong groups,’ who were unfortunately injured but didn’t suffer the causalities that led to death. Unless, that was the kid’s intention; to just show off his powers as a warning.
Kamui then looked up and then towards the others of the guests that was within the sushi place. And to his surprise, there were actually some Bugei Academy students here. Even more so, the ones he’s heard of as well. Despite just transferring in a bit late and all, he was already having the ‘fun-time’ of his life. Well, it was more like, it found him instead but that’s a totally different story. He too, carried his weapon with him all that he goes to. Well, it’s not as the school really cared anyway. Looking around again, he spotted ‘him’. That ‘him’ was to be Azai Nobuyori . It wasn’t just that he wanted to fight him, it was because he gave off a strong aura about him. Before speaking forward to Nobuyori, he hard Suishoku’s voice and paused for a moment before opening his mouth. ”…Hah? Just what rubbish are you saying?” He replied to her with another questioned.

"Questions for question. Darn, thought you'd walk right into that. Don't you watch any movies or read a few light novels," the girl sighed under her breath and snapped her fingers in mild defeat. Guess it's the informal way...what with them making a rough entrance. Casting a glance at Akarui, it was safe to assume that she already knew who he was for being some hacker informant but food has a higher calling must like the rest of the restaurant patrons. They must have turned a blind eye on the boy or went for the public shunning approach. Neither of which Suishoku could do after hearing the clamor of delicate dishes falling and a couple of fairly descent kids toward the back. Sitting back down in her chair and leaning on the short wall support, her eyes stared at him for a minute as she lowered the napkin and pointed at the body who remained on the floor. It's almost a bit surprising not a chef or waiter has approached the young man to dismiss him or did this sort of thing happen before?
"While this looks like a scene from a movie, is this going to be kid and seafood friendly? Whatever happened to public manners for you and the little friend you made?" Feeling her cough subside, she kept her eyes glued to the new face as she continued to chide him for his entrance and for being clueless to her earlier comment. "Are you going to clean yourself up and share a meal for that wasted energy or not? As for earlier, if you're going to be crashing in like some sentai actor, what's your name before people start giving you obscure ones?"

(NEW POST ORDER: Me, Moon, Kiab, Ali) As Nobu was ordering his sushi without a drink and looking around the restaurant he couldn't help but glance over at that girl he had met on the roof. What exactly was he so afraid of in regards to her? Was she really that dangerous of a person to him? After all she had been the same foolish girl that had tripped over a bunch of scrolls lying around in plain sight. Was it the fact that she was one of the few people who ever actually argued with something he said? Or was it that she actually had the nerve to try and fix his hair after it got all messed up. It wasn't like she was a bad person, so why was he treating her like a stalker? It was during this trip into Nobu's own head that series of strange events occurred. Not only did some fool go around smashing things in the Sushi joint, but also seemed to be death glaring right at Nobu. As Nobuyori looked around he saw Suishoku talk to the lout who had just barged into the shop. Keep his hair in tact he ran over to the two girls. First looking at the girl that Suishoku had been talking to he said "I hope you aren't hurt." Then looking over at the three kids and the foreign woman he yeld "Ms.Cassandra, please watch the children" With that taken care of he finally had time to focus on Suishoku and the loud mouth. From what he had gathered the guy was apparently some delinquent student. Though Nobu had never actually heard of him. Or...wait..had he? He may have and just simply didn't pay him any attention. After all, it wasn't like Nobu to pay attention to much of anyone except himself and his professors. That's what happens when you have a chip on your shoulder and a slight god complex. Finally walking up he smiled at Suishoku then looked at the intruder "You are making a mess." he said bluntly "I'd rather you leave."

Again Nobu was looking over at that girl for some strange reason; Cassandra wanted to know why that was though, perhaps they knew each other? But if so why hadn’t they said hello to each other or socialized with each other yet? No, that cannot have been the reason; those two knowing each other in a positive manner must not have been the reason for Nobu’s watchful gaze of that other girl so Cassandra was going to hazard a guess that they did know each other but not in a good way, not in the slightest. Moving on though Cassandra’s replacement dish had arrived and she started to eat it but that was when Nobu interrupted her by asking if her to watch over the children and before she could object he was gone, looks like she was stuck even if she had no idea how to look after children.
Looking down at the children she was utterly lost in what she should do in terms of watching over these three children so she decided to start up some conversation with them, this would also be a good chance to find out some information about Nobu. “So… what are you names? My name is Cassandra” this would be a good place to start but she was also watching Nobu out of curiosity as to how he was going to do this and with what methods. It seemed that he was taking a polite yet forceful method in trying to get rid of that uncouth lout and if that didn’t work then well, Cassandra planned to intervene and teach this uncouth ruffian why you should not screw about with her food.

”No, I’m fine,” replied Akarui to the boy after she had calmed down and returned to her normal state. She wasn’t in a good mood at this point and doesn’t want to deal with this suddenly upraised drama. Even the attitude of this kid was so annoying Akarui felt like she’s going to just step up and go punch him. Even though it wasn’t necessary and there are other means that’s better to use. No, at this point it was more like…if you want to fight, bring it feeling that Akarui had inside. However, what was she to do? Start trouble? Well, she could but on the other hand, it would seem unnecessary. Still, she didn’t want to intrude into the situation. Unless, it was necessary on her part then she was willing to aid herself in.
”Kamui Sakamoto,” answered Kamui to Suishoku who he has never met and has no idea of who she is but doesn’t care either. Since, he may never ever run into her in the future anyway. Unless, he did though, he’d probably never remember because he didn’t care too. Turning his head to Azai Nobuyori, he grinned for a bit. It was unexpected that thee Nobuyori would approach him first. Even though Kamui was going to do the honors of walking over to him. ”Make me Nobuyori-sama,” he replied with a slight tone of sarcasm into it. Of course he did it on purpose. Hence, he wasn’t going to leave no matter what after getting into the trouble of a random guy that he didn’t know picking a fight with him. And with a twist of events, there’s one of the most person he wanted to see and meet face to face. Azai Nobuyori, as he heard was pretty strong by some fellow students that he nearly beat up.

"Suishoku Yuubae. Forgettable, right." The girl responded with a small huff. It didn't take a genius to see that he wasn't going to pay attention to that anyway. Maybe there is still some minor swig of hope that this guy is from another school in the area. Regardless, Suishoku looked back and forth fro the nameless boy on the ground to Sakamoto. Sakamoto? The same name used on crates of fruit? Suishoku wasn't sure on how to laugh about that or not but it was kinda amusing in thought. Instead she tossed it aside so she wouldn't look like a maniac to suddenly be taunting this untamed bull. A surname of Sakamoto is a normal name to say the least but what's with this guy's mood? Losing just about all of his attention to something else, the girl raised a brow and turned her head in time for her eyes meet with Onmyouji-san's as he passed her a smile before dealing with the more introduced brawler, Kamui Sakamoto.
Hello, surprise, and double the questioning! Just what grounds just got crossed? Onmyouji-san and fruit crate guy? This guy honestly singled out Onmyouji-san? That just about reached a surprising level as Mr. Clan leader actually smiling at her since meeting each other on the roof and his silly pile of scrolls. Suishoku didn't think he actually knew people if he has all that time laying about on the school roof. Maybe they're classmates or had some issues in the guy's dorm to know each other? Could they just have known each other before? While pondering this along with Onmyouji-san's sudden smile, she shook her head at the both of them. If only she had more time to shoot an exchange of Qs and As but this spaghetti western is just getting started. Scratching behind her ear at the strange turn of events, Suishoku sighed and dropped her hand while addressing Kamui one more time. Albet this time her words were more to her usual third party side grumbles. "Is it too late to ask you guys take this elsewhere more spacious and less hazardous? Maybe take off your coats and save the dishes since neither one seems hungry. I mean, wouldn't want to squish the stranger on the floor's ribcage or anything..."

Nobu looked at Suishiko and said "Hey, About last time. Umm, I'm sorry we didn't get a chance to talk that much. I'm just not really use to other people being so direct with me. Ummm, I apologize, for my comment about you being beheaded in feudal times." Nobu's face was red and frustrated as he said it. If he was bad at talking to people normally, then he was leagues worse at apologizing as it was something he'd never really had to do before. Usually it would be people apologizing to him for things. Shrugging off what he had just said he then looked at the loud mouth.
Ka-mu-i Sa-ka-mo-to." he said spelling out each sound slowly. He hoped that durring this time period he would be able to recognized the loud mouth in front of him. Sadly, however, nothing came to mind. Nobuyori just looked at him with an annoyed face. "Clearly you've heard of me, but honestly I don't know who you are. Really, I don't care. Most likely you are just some descended of a low level clan hoping to gain prestige by taking on a higher level clan right?" with that Nobu sighed and rolled his eyes in annoyance. it wasn't exactly uncommon for people to want to fight him due to his attitude but this was ridiculous.
"If you want to fight lets go outside and fight, but understand that afterwards I will force you to clean this entire place. You've made a large mess and quite frankly its disgusting." with that Nobu walked right past the man as though he wasn't there and out into the street. Even if walking past the man had attacked him would it have mattered? Nobu had no fear of someone so bruddish.
Back at the table Cassandra asked the kids their names. All three of them grinned large. First the young girl spoke up "My name is ISE!" she said with a grin as she moved her arms around. Next to Ise a skinny boy with spiky hair looked at her like she was an idiot. "My name is Kota." he said flatly. Finally, eating the last piece of sushi in front of him, the pudgier boy said "Oh, and I'm Isamu."

Cassandra was paying attention to the children telling her their names but she was mostly focusing upon Nobu and the uncouth lout that had decided it was a simply genius idea to crash into the sushi restaurant like a drunken mule and ruin the meals of everybody who was assembled which greatly angered Cassandra and making her want to give him a piece of her mind she knew that she had been asked to keep an eye on the kids which she was going to do seeing as she liked Nobu, he was polite and a rather friendly chap. Oh so they might actually be fighting? She would definitely be interested in watching for the purpose of learning what Nobu was capable of, strength and power wise anyway. Turning back to face the three children she smiled warmly at them playing nice; the three children looked like very good friends as you had the hyper one, the “cool” boy one and of course the one who liked to eat food judging by the fact he finished the last piece of sushi before him. “Ise, Kota and Isamu, pleased to meet you three” she smiled at them not bothering to hand out her name seeing as how they had most likely over heard it when she told Nobu. Speaking of Nobu though she looked back over to him to see if a fight had broken out yet but sadly no, the two of them where still talking or having some form of a staring based battle, she wished they would get to the fighting part already as that was the part she really did want to see.
