Location: *taps you gently on the shoulder*
Kin halted at the bottom of the stairs before the darkened hallway. Hearing Kuro speak, Kin responded by swiftly cracking his dear friend in the shin with his cane.

"Watch who you call a gimp." Kin said with a grin on his face. "Because if Im a gimp then that means you're mentally handicapped."

With a soft laugh, Kin waited for Akiko to rejoin the group before he spoke again. "For reference, I wasn't trying to lose our new friend. I was trying to avoid running into a hall mon-..."

Kin stopped speaking abruptly and turned his gaze to the darkened hallway before him. He couldn't make out the outline of a person, but he sensed someone watching them.

"And what is it you want?" Kin asked the shadows of the hallway.

After a few long seconds, the figure of a person began to emerge from the darkness. The figure was in actuality a Hall Monitor, exactly what Kin had wanted to avoid, and the student came to a stop at the edge of the hallways shadows, about 15 feet away from the group.

The figure was a tall male student with overgelled black hair that spiked straight up in the air, which only added to his already abnormal height. The kid was well-built and carried a bo over his shoulder. Judging from the two red bands he wore on the left arm of his uniform, Kin could tell he was a second year Hall Monitor. This relieved Kin a little, but it didnt stop him from slowly moving his feet into a fighting stance and gripping his cane tightly.

The Monitor stared the group down for another second or two, undoubtedly trying to make them grow even uneasier, before he spoke.


"What do I want?" He asked himself while sarcastically rubbing his chin as if it were some grand metaphysical question. "Well for starters, how about a little bit of respect you puney first-years and after that how about a little of what in the hell are you doing here?"

Kin grinned slightly at the Monitor's tough-guy act. He was obviously compensating for something. Maybe a lack of fighting ability?

Taking a step forward, Kin answered. "Well, I'll take your second question first. We're headed to The Pit." Kin grinned as he spoke the next words. "As for respect...well, that's just something you'll have to earn."

With that, Kin lowered his bag to the ground and kicked it out of the way. He then shifted from a defensive stance to the most basic offensive stance of his Buro-kundou style. Flashing a glance over at Kuro, Kin saw his friend trembling. Not out of fear, but out of anticipation and excitement.
