Lunch at Taiyoutono was a typical affair for most students. For Kaya however... It was also typical. It's also one of the few moments where she gets to enjoy a moment's rest. In this case, it meant falling asleep while sitting crosslegged while her lunch remained half-eaten in an isolated corner of the Lunchroom. It was always a nice place to avoid being bothered. Of course, once in a while she awakens to someone taking her dessert. That or staring at the scar at the left side of her face. Slowly opening an eye, she saw someone approach her... |

Kakeru was unusually tired today. Perhaps it's due to the absence of his sword that he always carried anywhere he went (which was broken during his mission to save his girlfriend). That sword was his security blanket of some sort, and without it, he felt rather diminished and surprisingly weak. As he walked into the lunchroom, he noticed someone. He didn't know her, but he'd got a feeling that he might have seen her sometimes ago. Seeing that he might've disturbed her, Kakeru gave the girl an apologetic smile before he spoke, "Oh, sorry if I disturb you. But..." he tried his best to sound friendly, but his tiredness made it hard for him to be his usual self. "...hello, there." |

"Mmm... Nrawr... 'lo" Slowly awakening, Kaya yawned a bit as she scratched at the scar on the side of her face. As her vision slowly cleared, she saw that it was the guy who she helped save his girl. 'Course, he doesn't know who she is, or at least, she's pretty sure he doesn't know. Unless he happens to have super deduction powers or if her helmet wasn't as dark as she thought... Still, it does seem like he's in the dumps. Either from his sword or his girl. "Hmm... No problem. Somethin' troubling you?" |

"No, not really," Kakeru lied, looking away. Sure, he was troubled with the fact that he's practically powerless and not motivated without his sword. For someone who never separated from that sword, the revelation on how powerless he could get without his sword seemed to hit him pretty hard. Kakeru sighed. His body felt heavier than usual. He couldn't even fight a generic thug in this state, let alone a Shadow. His sword needed to be fixed real quick, or he might get sloppy in no time. "Well... may I sit?" he asked, trying to maintain his politeness. |

Looking left and right, Kaya simply nodded and answered, "Sure." Wiping a spot on the floor for him, she let him take his seat and asked, "I'm guessing that there is something wrong. Care to share or paraphrase?" |

Was it that obvious? Kakeru sighed heavily as he looked away. Sure, there was something wrong with him, and it was hard for him to admit it. "It's... complicated..." he admitted. "And I doubt you can help anyway..." he added. |

"Maybe not, but it probably won't help to keep it to yourself. Might as well talk to a friendly stranger about it." Kaya nodded over at Kakeru as a friendly gesture. She felt that as a fellow warrior, she needed to provide support. Even if it's as simple as just listening to him. For her part, she at least had her mom for more personal things. Hell, when things went bad with Natsu(ki), mom was there watching "Road House" with her. "Talking helps. A clear mind is needed to tackle challenges in your life." |

Kakeru sighed again. Perhaps the girl was right. He needed to be more open to others. "...Very well, if you insist," Kakeru smiled slightly. "Well... recently, I lost something precious..." Kakeru began. "It's not a big deal actually, but it's still kind of worrying..." he said. Well, Hanamatsuri was his family's heirloom, and one of his late father's beloved possessions before it was passed down to him. With the sword broken, his pride as a warrior seemed to be sullied. "It doesn't matter anyway. Everything will turn out fine soon," he said, thinking about repairing the sword after this. "Anyway, I didn't catch your name, miss," he said to Kaya. "You can call me Kakeru, if you want, that is..." he smiled. Edited by Prince Arjuna, Jul 11 2012, 09:08 AM.

Ticking her head sideways, Kaya listened to Kakeru's story. Judging by the way he's talking, he's probably talking about that sword of his. She can sympathise with him. She'd be pretty upset if her Chainsaw was somehow destroyed/lost. While it probably wasn't an ancestral weapon or whatever, it was certainly something important. "Well, I'd say that if you're sure that it'll get better, you just need patience and a bit of faith." As he asked for her name, Kaya extended her hand and answered, "Kaya." |

"Nice to meet you," Kakeru smiled as he held out his hand for a handshake with Kaya. As both of them shook their hands, he realized something. Yeah, they had met before, under a different circumstance. Yeah, he was sure. She's the other one who joined him in their mission to save Isoroku, the one who appeared anonymously. While his sense wasn't as sharp as before, he was sure that he was right. But he couldn't simply ask her right away, so he decided to test her a bit. "So, how it feels to not appear anonymously?" Kakeru asked. |
