As the teacher lectured about the history of the Emperor, Yuki sits still staring at the board. As soon as the bell rings, she stands up and walks for the door, moving her way through the crowd of people.
At the sound of the bell Etsuko jumped back to consciousness, and saw Yuki heading towards the door. He quickly caught up to her and touched her shoulder in an attempt to gain her attention, "Hey where are you going Yuki?"
Yuki stops in the middle of the hallway, looking over her shoulder at Etsuko. "I am going to my next class..." She looks back at him with a blank stare, waiting for a response.
Etsuko looked at her and smiled, "What I meant to say was, where are we going to meet after school? So I can show you around. Do we need to stop by your house to notify your parents about going out to see the sights?
"No" She turnes her head and looks down the hallway. "I will be at the front gate five minutes after the last bell rings." With that she walks away, disappearing into the crowd of people.
The bell rings, and a river of students flow out of the school. Near the main gate stands Yuki, staring at the school waiting for Etsuko.
Etsuko strolled out of the school, surrounded by his friends, laughing merrily. He caught sight of Yuki who was staring him down. He shivered as the stare seemed to pierce right through him.
He walked up to her, leaving his friends to go it alone. "Konnichiwa Yuki, you ready to go have some fun? First we will go to the towns center park, and then maybe we can go to one of the museums, they have some awesome wreckage from the wars we have been in."
Together they walked off, Etsuko chatting his head off as they want.
June 2nd, 813 A.S.
Planet New Tokyo, city of Osaku
Two years have passed, and Yuki became close friends with Etsuko and Kai. Everybody but Yuki was buzzing with what they were going to do after school. Etsuko couldn't stop talking about joining the KNF. Finally, graduation day came.
Yuki sat down next to Etsuko in the auditorium where the degrees were being handed out. "Konnichiwa Yuki, what are you doing after school is over?" Yuki turns her head, and gave her usual blank stare. " I'm going to a Navel Forces acadamy."
