The sun’s warm rays beat against the smooth contours of her body. The bleachers were warm against her skin, but slightly scratchy. The old white paint was peeling from the surface, while splinters of wood were jutting out at random and leaving her skin itchy and raw in a few places. Asahria’s left foot was placed neatly on the bleachers as she tied up the white laces to her soccer cleats. She lifted herself up from the bleachers letting her cleats dig into the soft ground, she was overwhelmed with the sensation one might receive just before the game, when they knew they would be out there tearing up the turf.
She could hear the cheerleaders in the distance, she smiled at the familiarity and welcome ness of that sport, but it was nothing compared to soccer. Soccer was the one sport that could give her chills every time she played and it never grew old in her eyes. She leaned over gracefully extending her hands the length of her right leg welcoming the feel which the stretch brought on. She stuck out magnificently while stretching. Her white soffe shorts complete with an orange tank, contrasted completely with the brilliant green of the field.
Her long hair grazed her shoulders and her back as the slight gusts of wind feathered through the lengths of the field. Asahria reached down grasping her wrist looking for the familiar hair tie which usually held it’s place there, but as she ran her hand across the length of her arm she found that she had lost her hair tie. She moaned a little at the thought of having to repeatedly tug the hair from her face as she played, it was bothersome. She supposed it would have to do though because she wasn’t going to put off playing so she could find a hair tie, she was deprived from the sport enough as it was.
She made her way back over to the bleachers where her bag with the soccer ball lay. She drew the drawstrings apart and pulled her soccer ball from the bag. The ball was slightly worn and it was old, but she had grown fond of it. She played well with it, granted she never got it during a game but all the same she enjoyed having it. It was more a reminder of her past and she enjoyed it for it’s sentimental value.
She juggled the ball between her hands a few times, experimenting it’s pressure. What good would it do if she were out here playing soccer with a flat ball. She set the ball on the ground and started to dribble it gently between her feet as she got into the mood. She made her way across the field dribbling and working on her footwork. She was determined to be one of the best this year. At the goal she worked some more on her technique. She kept constantly on the move until she was near out of all her energy.
Asahria let out an exasperated sigh and fell to the ground, she grabbed the ball resting it on her stomach as she lie in the field breathing heavily and looking expectantly to the sky. Her hair was wind-blown and knotted, a shame, but the enthrallment of the game was the better end of the deal. While she lay in this state she was at complete peace.

Of course Laurel Academy had a king-sized soccer field. It seemed to be the perfect school—good cafeteria food, clean dorms, an enormous field for the jocks. Kaze ambled along the edge of it aimlessly, hands tucked into the pockets of her jeans, head lowered in thought. A slight breeze pushed her tresses over her shoulders. She raised her face upwards, allowing the sun to beat a pattern across her face, enjoying the warmth it shed over her small body. Don’t ask why Kaze was walking when she had a perfectly good motorcycle back in the parking lot of her dorm. Perhaps she just wanted a change of pace. And what better change was there than the sports field of Laurel? The day was beautiful; sunny, warm, only a few fluffy white clouds in the sky. Kaze dressed simply in faded jeans and a clingy black tank top. For once she wasn’t wearing her kamikaze suit; probably because a few people were already giving her wide berths. And Kaze didn’t want that. She wanted to meet people here. There didn’t seem to be anyone out using the field. Kaze glanced across it, realizing then that she had been wrong. That was indeed someone on the field. A girl practicing her soccer.
Kaze paused to watch the girl for a moment. She didn’t want to intrude, but the girl looked so good, moving her body perfectly, obviously a long-time player of this sport. Kaze stood uncertainly for another moment, glancing around. She didn’t want to go sit on the bleachers; they looked gross. After a slight hesitation, Kaze lowered her lithe body upon the grass at the edge of the field, folding her legs Indian-style and cupping her chin in her hands. She almost wished that she was good at some sport. Was riding even considering a sport? Back in gym class, Kaze was usually the kid sitting on the sidelines, taken out of the game for being too ‘rough’ and not following the rules. It wasn’t Kaze’s fault that she decided to spice up the game a bit, was it? Maybe that’s why she had become a biker. There were no rules in biking. Well, there were a few, but for the most part, it was ride hard. Respect your gang members, and respect your bike. Akimi-san, her gang leader, was easy on the members. She taught them that the opinions of everyone else didn’t matter. Kaze knew that was why her parents disapproved so greatly of her gang. What could possibly be worse than a group of teenage girls who didn’t follow the rules?
The wind brushed against Kaze’s hair again, pushing the already messy knots into her face. She roughly pushed back the strands that stuck to her dark lipstick, now cursing her idea to go for a walk. Great idea that was. But she couldn’t exactly meet any friends if she stayed in her dorm room all the time, could she? She raised her gaze to the girl again, who seemed to be tiring of her routine and slowing down. Kaze wondered if a girl like her could be friends with Kaze. It was so hard to tell here. Back in Japan everything had been straightforward. You had no trouble finding out who were your friends and who weren’t. But here in America, everyone seemed so….fake, for lack of a better word. Back-stabbing and jealous and the like. Of course, Japanese teenagers were like that, too, but not this extreme. The Americans took it to a whole different level; treating it like it was a competition. Kaze couldn’t claim to be completely free of the jealousy, though. It seemed to be a favourite pastime of the gang, ridiculing those they didn’t like. Kaze always joined in, always ready with an insult or something to yell at the middle-aged couple staring at them from across the road. But Kaze didn’t think she could hate someone enough to do what she had seen some of the girls here do.
The soccer-playing girl at last grew tired and fell to the ground. Kaze hesitated, wondering if she should go talk to the girl, before pulling her body upwards and brushing the grass from her jeans. She strolled across the field, thumbs hooked through her belt-loops, a nonchalant expression on her face. Did Kaze really look like the new girl? Kaze glanced behind her, feeling almost self-conscious, as if the entire school were watching to see if Ms. Soccer was going to reject Kaze’s invitation of friendship. She certainly hoped not. Once she reached the girl, she fixed a smile to her kissers and sat down beside her, keeping out of the girl’s sun. Her smile faltered for a minute as she wondered what to say. With the new members of the gang, it wasn’t that hard. ‘Nice bike, where’d you get the cylinder?’ or ‘Nice bike, I have the same engine.’ What was she supposed to say to this girl? Nice ball, I’ve never played before in my life? Kaze smirked at that thought and pushed her tresses away from her eyes before glancing down at the girl. Meeting friends here would be so much easier if they at least had something in common with Kaze. But how many kids would like bikes, piercings, drifting, and manga? Kaze shook her hair over her shoulders and decided she might as well take a shot.
“Hey, nice moves. How long have you been playing?” She asked casually, smiling again and hoping she didn’t look dumb. Or, for that matter, sound like a friendship-starved loser. For all she knew, she probably closely resembled a street-rough thug. That description wasn’t too far off, either. But Kaze didn’t plunder, didn’t find amusement in slashing tires. Sure, she was in a gang, but they didn’t steal car stereos for kicks. They were just a group of girls who loved riding motorbikes. Kaze tugged at the chain around her neck, rearranging her slight frame. The sun pressed down against her, and it might have been uncomfortable for anybody else, but Kaze welcomed the heat. She loved the extremes; sun, wind, snow, you name it. Being on a bike, you got to experience it all. Trapped behind a windshield of a car, you had no idea what it felt to actually feel nature’s breath on your face, to enjoy the heat beating down on your shoulders. Kaze felt as if that were truly the art of biking. Never mind battle and stirring up trouble in the mall’s parking lot, what Kaze loved about biking was being able to feel.

Asahria felt her skin tingle beneath the warmth of the sun's smooth rays. Her breathing was a bit ragged from her practice session and as she exhaled wisps of her bangs flew from the front of her face. She smiled blatantly to the sky, she was completely at peace here on the field, opposed to the huingered competition she felt when there were others out her strategizng their own plays. She sat up from her tangled form, in which she currently lay a little surprised to see another girl headed her way. She didn't really look like one much into sports, but that was ok she didn't feel as threatened that way.
As the girl near Asahria watched her every move, with those steel blue eyes of hers so full of emotion. She wasn't able to distinguish the girl's orientation exactly, but she was fairly pretty, she would admit. She didnot speak as the girl sat down beside her. Asahria was thankful that she had not sat in her sun, though she would have said nothing she was glad. She smiled loosely at the girl as she sat down. An odd silence followed where neither of the girl's spoke and she just glanced her over.
When the girl finally spoke Asahria's lips turned into a thin smile, so she had been watching. She was knd of used to it she had been a soccer star since she was young so people watching her play was nothing new. "Thanks. Umm... Nearly as long as I can rememeber. I've played since I was kid, the game entralls me... completely" SHe knew nothing of this girls clique or anything about her at all really. AS one of the populars she herself spoke to everyone no matter if they got along or not. But she wasn't like all the others she had worked her way up through her smooth actions and they had to accept her. Right now though and to this girl,s he probably sounded like a soccer jock which she supposed in a way she was.
She turned her head to the sky once more giving an exasperated sigh before looking back to the girl. "Oh by the way I'm Asahria... Asahria Ryek" She added in that smooth sweet tone of hers, her eyes glinting brightly in the sunshine. "So I don't think I've ever seen you around before" She was going to feel really bad if this was a long time student, but at least she was being truthful, and her curiosity was grasping her nerves again.

The soccer-playing girl had been waiting for Kaze to speak. At least she didn’t tell her off straight away. Kaze pushed her tresses away from her eyes, interest obvious in her face as she listened to the girl’s words. She wished she could say the same about biking. In a way that was hard to explain, Kaze always felt so strange admitting that she had only been biking for about two years. Everyone else in the gang seemed so experienced, so cool and collected with their years of riding. Not only was Kaze one of the youngest in the gang, she was also one of the newest to riding. Typical rich girl plot, innit? Her parents didn’t approve of biking so for a while she had to hide it. Hence her not-so-sharp riding techniques. But at least she knew how to ride hard, take corners, and fix her bike if it got damaged. The hot stuff could come later.
As for the enthralling part, Kaze could definitely relate to that. Riding did enthrall her. For the longest time Kaze hadn’t known who she was at all. It was sad, in a way. You’d think somebody with a disposition so strong as Kaze’s would know exactly who she was, but that wasn’t the case at all. Biking had given her the strength she had always wanted. There was just something about motorbikes; something that Kaze felt as thought nothing else in the world could ever supply, nor take the place of. She was sure that this girl felt the same way about soccer.
When the girl introduced herself, Kaze nodded, acknowledging the information. Asahria was such a pretty name. Better than Kaze anyways. Despite Kaze’s exotic appearance, her name was boring. A few people were confused once Kaze introduced herself. She had a Japanese accent, a Japanese first name, a Russian family name, and Russian features. And of course, once she explained her heritage, they all wanted to know the whole story. Oh, what an interesting life you have, Kaze! Interesting, indeed. Kaze wasn’t at all interested in her heritage. Who cared about Anastasia and how to make onigiri? Kaze didn’t. As multi-cultured as she was, it was rather shocking to hear Kaze cared more about biking than the orgin of her grandparents.
“I’m Kaze Tsuchiya,” she said, her accent betraying her, “and yes, I’m new here.” Kaze smiled. Was it [I]really[/y] that obvious how new she was? She glanced around the empty soccer field before turning her gaze back to Asahria. “I don’t even know anyone here,” she confided seriously. It really sucked being the new kid, ne?

Asahria waited belatedly as the girl sat there in silence after her last words. She wan't sure if she was just trying to find the right words to say or if she was just thinking back, she dd that herself often enough so she wouldn't intrude until the girl was ready to speak. She played with the charms on the bracelet of her dainty wrist, merely to here there soft jingle. She hoped she wasn't seeming as though she had lost interest in the conversation and dropped her arm. She smoother her white shorts and her orange tank so they didn't cast such a ruffled appearance.
She heard the girl speak again just as she was moving her bangs from her eyes. She brushed them softly to the side not yet bothering to put them in their rightful place. "Kaze"she let the word roll off her tongu. She had an odd habit like that, every time she mat someone and learned their name she always spoke it once and softly just to see how it rolled off the tongue. She nodded her head slightly in approval and worded a little louder this time. I kind of like it... It's sort of exotic'
That hadn't been the word she had been looking for, but she supposed it would do as long as the girl took no offense by it. She was glad when the girl said she was new here because she didn't look like the one who paid no attention at all, she'd gotten that a few times and let's just say it made her feel guilty. Seriously it's not like she's out there to get anybody or anything, or at least she's not trying to be that way.
"Well no one new... ever knows anyone" she laughed. "wow... Sorry that came out a little bit crude didn't it" Her cheeks were hinted brilliant pink now, she wasn't so embarasses by what she had said but in the sarcastic way she had said it."I just meant everyone new here just has to get out and well meet people...Isn't that what your doing now? And well I'm sure before long you'll meet everyone and settle into a crowd. I mean it took me a while to get where I am" she smiled as she juggled the ball aimlessly between her hands.

Kaze glanced at Asahria, taking note of the fancy bracelet on her wrist, before her gaze drifted to the many bracelets cluttering her own wrist, colours woven with each other in intricate patterns, a talent that one member of the gang was amazing at. In some way, it was what held the gang together. They didn’t wear leather jackets, nor any three-piece patches. Just a wristload of friendship bracelets were enough to signify the loyalty of the gang. You wouldn’t really think a gang was loyal; and definitely not a gang of motorcycle-riding girls. And yet, they were loyal, more loyal than people gave them credit for. If Kaze was ever in a jam, she knew her gang had her back. That was reassuring. But what was she going to do now, with them thousands of miles away?
At Asahria’s words, Kaze raised her head, a smile slipping onto her kissers. She wouldn’t exactly say that her own name was exotic. She preferred her family name, Tsuchiya, as was the custom in Japan to use the family name first, but after a while everyone had just started referring to her as ‘Kaze’. She supposed it was easier to say than Tsuchiya. It had even grown on her, although she was now more inclined to her gang nickname, Zero, than she was to her given name. Call her picky, but that’s just how Kaze was. Her mother often complained about it to family friends. ‘She never wants to be called Kaze. What a lovely name it is!’ But Kaze didn’t want to be ‘lovely’. A biker was not lovely, if anything but. Tough, hard, street, but definitely not lovely.
Kaze stretched out her denim-clad legs, listening as Asahria continued speaking. A grin inched its way onto her features as Asahria tried apologizing for her remark. Not that it bothered Kaze. She cold take a bit of sarcasm just as well as the next person, ne? She fiddled with her short hair, pulling locks of it into her eyes before pushing them out of the way again, redirecting her gaze towards Asahria and keeping a smile on her kissers. Asahria’s words were kind, but Kaze wasn’t sure if she would be able to ‘fall into a crowd’ here. At least, not a crowd suited to her likings. And she wouldn’t be one of those girls who was a social butterfly, fluttering from one crowd to the next, friends with everybody. Kaze was the kind of girl who preferred to stick with her own crowd. Birds of a feather flock together, right?
“So I’m guessing you’re one of the popular kids,” Kaze said, although not in a mean way, and not even in the form of a question. She brushed her tresses away from her face, tucking stray strands behind her heavily-pierced ears. She wondered briefly if having some super talent was a grant to popularity in this school. In that case, it was no wonder Asahria was popular. Just seeing the way she played soccer, Kaze was sure lots of people liked Asahria. They probably were attracted to her superstar personality. The girl just seemed to shine with it, that carefree aura of not needing anything but a green turf and a soccer ball. But who would be attracted to a girl who needed only a highway and a motorbike?
“I’ve only met a few people here. They all seem pretty nice, although a little mediocre. But mediocre is good,” Kaze said, tilting her head to one side. Sitting here and talking was nice, but she’d rather be doing something. She stood up, brushing stray pieces of grass from her jeans before looking down at Asahria. Kaze may not be a champion soccer player, but at least she knew how to kick the ball.
“How about a little one-on-one?”

Asharia rolled her eyes blatantly to herself, god could she be dumb sometimes but it was something she would deal with. She noticed as a smile spread on the thin lips of Kazes mouth and brought one to her one, she was glad that the smile had not distinguished at her last words, they hadn't seemed to bother her much, so it was ok, she hoped.
She flicked her hair over the back of her shoulder and made way to place it back in her pony-tail. She was happy sitting here talking it was one thing she liked to do, but she was getting sketchy and wanted to get back on the field soon. She listened to the girls next words, but didn't answer the question, it seemed more an added thought. Her only word on the thought was I'm not like all of them though... not really
She watched Kaze as she absently played with the tresses of her short hair. At her former remark, Asahria was up and ready to go in moments, not even bothering to dust the spare grass of her clothing. She threw the ball over in Kaze's direction to let her take the lead.So what is it that you do for fun?she called over.

Kaze caught the ball between her hands, jogging a short ways away from Asahria. She pondered over the other girl’s remark about her popularity for only a moment before dismissing it. Kaze had never been popular; if anything but. She was the farthest thing from it. And in the gang, there were no member titles, no position higher than the other aside from Akimi-san’s leadership. It was all for one and one for all, or maybe it was the other way around. Kaze dropped the ball to the ground, resting one foot atop it to steady it as she brushed her tresses out of her eyes, glancing up to see Asahria standing several feet away from her. She nodded her head toward the net closest to them.
“My side,” she said simply, butting the ball with the side of her foot, chasing along behind it. She hoped Asahria wouldn’t totally whup her ass right away. She glanced over at Asahria’s question, wondering how to word her response. What exactly did she do for fun? Kaze wasn’t sure if she rode for fun. That was more like her life. Perhaps reading manga was what she did for fun, or maybe writing stories about biker chick heroes who always saved the day. Kaze paused to flip her tresses away from her face again.
“I ride motorbikes,” she said, shooting a smile in Asahria’s direction before she booted the ball further up the field, watching as it sailed smoothly across the grass.
[size]ooc I don’t play soccer at all, so I have no idea what I’m talking about o.o[/size]

Asahria nodded gently as Kaze nodded to the goal. She watched momentarily as kaze made off down the field the ball slightly loose in her footing, she waited a few moments before she took off after her, enjoying the gathering sensation. she wondered about Kaze she had said little about herself this whole concersation and now Asahria's curiosity was etching.
Motorbikes, that's interesting she paused thinking about keeping her thoughts to herself, but decided against it. Can't say I'm to interested never been on one in my life, but that's cool she laughed aloud as she finally brought herself face to face with Kaze. She waited for the oppertune moment and tapped the ball back with her left foot and then faked a left, before moving out to the right.
She stopped her toe resting on the ball, as she waited for Kaze to turn around. She wanted it to be somewhat fair.So do you have like a club you do that with She didn't really think they were clubs, but she really had no idea at all. What was the harm in asking.
No problem it does just as well lol

Kaze’s body automatically moved to the left, gems following the movements of Asahria’s body, before she realized she had been tricked. She laughed, whirling around and focusing her gaze on the soccer ball. She wasn’t too surprised to hear Asahria’s remark. Very few girls were interested in motorbikes. Asahria was no different than the rest of them. Really, Kaze saw nothing wrong with motorbikes. They weren’t that unfeminine, were they? The only girl Kaze could think of who wouldn’t ride a motorbike would be some neat-freak who would fuss if she broke a nail or got even a spot of oil on her jeans. Kaze was definitely not that type of girl, and she was glad she wasn’t. Asahria didn’t seem to be that type of girl, either, if the way she played was any indication.
“You should give them a chance. You might grow to like them,” she said in response to Asharia’s comment, using one hand to push her tresses out of her eyes, the other resting on her hip. She knew Asahria was going easy on her, but it didn’t offend Kaze in any way. She wasn’t a sore loser, but she didn’t want to be beat flat-out. Kaze did have somewhat of an ego, after all. She glanced up at Asahria’s next words, biting back a laugh. A club? Oh, that was funny. With matching jackets and membership cards too, right? Laminated cards! Kaze couldn’t hold back the next giggle that slipped out. She couldn’t help it. She just amused herself so damn much. She looked back up at Asahria, a friendly smile on her kissers to prove she wasn’t laughing at Asahria so much as she was at her own joke.
“Actually, I used to be in a gang,” Kaze answered her question earnestly. “Back home in Tokyo, that is.” She added. Might as well help Asahria out so the poor girl wouldn’t continue to despair over Kaze’s ethnical background. She stretched her back slightly, although enjoying the game, she was also starting to enjoy the questions. Kaze wasn’t at all that closed-off, no matter how tough she may seem. She liked it when people asked questions about her. After all, that’s how friends meet, right? By asking questions, and by finding out the same interests. Although Kaze was starting to think she and Asahria wouldn’t become best buds, she figured the soccer-champ would be a worthy ally in the battlefields of Laurel Academy.

Asahria smirked a little as Kaze turned around to meet her and the soccer ball face to face. She was interested in this girls background, motorbikes had never been a thought that had ever crossed her mind, in all truth. It was an interesting hobbie, not because Kaze was a girl, but more because she had never really thought of them as anything other than means of transportation. Never know can't say you don't like something you've never tried right... she paused laughing at herself slightly, what an odd sight that would be, right. She didn't put the thought out of her head though.Just have to try it out sometime...she added offhandedly.
Asahria did blush when Kaze laughed aloud, slightly embarrased. Yeah... I guess a club does sound kind of stupid huh?she paused But I wasn't lying when I said I knew nothing about it A friendly smile placed on her lips. She knew Kaze wasn't trying to embaraas her, but who couldn't laugh at her ditziness. Tokyo, she had never really known anyone from that area, but she supposed that's what you do when meeting new people. Yeah a gang sounds right she rolled her eyes to herself and gave a half willed thumbs up, giggling incessantly at how stupuid she must be sounding.
So Tokyo huh? What it like over there with your family and all?

A smile lit her kissers at Asahria’s words. At least she was a ‘try-everything-once’ girl, just like Kaze. Although she couldn’t exactly picture the girl atop a motorbike. She glanced at Asahria’s clothes before looking down at her own. Jeans were better suited to riding than shorts were, ne? She smirked as she suddenly imagined Asahria decked out in a kamikaze suit. Perhaps the girl had better stick to soccer instead? And speaking of soccer, Kaze was glad they were taking somewhat of a breather. Not that Kaze was out of shape, but trying to keep up with Asahria was tiring. She supposed that counted for plus points on the field; you had to be fast in soccer, right? Kaze wouldn’t know. She was never too fast on her feet. Which was why she loved motorbikes. The speed, the wind whistling in her ears; better than drugs, she thought smugly.
“Tokyo was…okay. Different from Liberty Heights, that’s for sure,” Kaze replied, fiddling with the chain around her neck. “My father wasn’t home much, and my mother was always entertaining her friends. I had to find some other way to amuse myself, and that’s how I got into motorbikes,” she said, realizing too late that her life story sounded vaguely like a little kid playing with matches. She revised quickly, flashing a smile at Asahria. “What I mean is, I never fit in much with my parents’ schedules. A few years ago I rode a dirtbike for the first time, and I’ve been hooked ever since. It’s somewhat of a hobby for me, although I think passion would be a better word. In Japan, children are supposed to be seen and not heard. I suppose riding motorbikes was my way of acting out.” Kaze shrugged. For her, riding wasn’t a rebellious thing, although that was probably what had appealed to her in the first place.

Asahria could relate to the whole "I didn't see my parents much" siuation, she spent more time with her anny then anyone else. It seemed the only time her father gave her the time of day was after her mother died, but then his attention was mostly directed to Alex. She did laugh a little at Kaze's first view on the subject, it's wording a bitter sweet concotion, but she could relate so their were no words against her.
Oh i see, well that's really cool though, I mean your love for motorbikes, not the whole parent thing... It was kind of like that for me to She added trying to put a real smile on her face, but she knew it came across as fake. Sh would explain her history in that subject to, but she wasn't ready to try and will back the tears. So what about your gang? What were they like? she said hushed trying to change the subject.

The sun felt good on Kaze’s back, and she rolled her shoulders, glad that she had decided to get out of her dorm room and get some exercise. Sunshine, exercise, and a new friend. Things were going great. She tilted her head at Asahria. Not everybody was that open with their past. Kaze had nothing to hide, however. If her parents hadn’t been the type of parents they were, she probably wouldn’t be the girl she was now. She didn’t hate them, nor wish them dead, or any ill-mannered things that most rebellious teenager, trying to think what to say about her gang. “Well, we aren’t like most biker gangs in Japan…we prefer drifting to drugs and whatnot.” At least that was one good thing about her gang that her mother couldn’t complain about. Drugs and alcohol had never s did these days. Although she did dislike the fact that they had shipped her off to Laurel Academy, Kaze figured it was probably for the best. She always said she wanted to travel; she might as well think of this as practise.
At Asahria’s words, she smiled gently, recognizing that tone. She had heard it many times before; but as Asahria didn’t want to talk about her past, Kaze might as well continue talking about hers. She didn’t mind. It made her feel closer to Japan, in a way. She shrugged really appealed to Kaze. They just seemed like a big waste of time; time better spent riding, than passed out on the couch or in bed with a hangover.
“Our gang leader was Akimi-san, but she left the gang just before I moved here.” Kaze concluded, fiddling with the bracelets on her wrist, a slight smile on her face at the memories of Akimi.

Asahria absent mindedly played with her charm bracelet as she listened to Kaze continue on about her gang. She was glad to be in the sun it felt so glorious against her skin and she was glad to be out here talking to someone, but most of all glad to have changed off the subject of her past. When Kaze spoke about how her gang was different to most for the aspect of drifting to drugs it did not really surprise her, Kaze didn't look the type to be a druggie.
Well, I'm glad you guys are smart enough to stay out of that, because I've met some not so fortunateshe spoke raising her eyebrows slightly. She turned her gaze back to Kaze and smiled, her eyes resting on her wrist where Kaze was fiddling with some bracelets. SO what are those? she asked a note of curiosity lacing her voice.
