From Erika

Aww, Erika just sent me an email. Here are the contents. 

"London, Greetings! How is your trip? I heard you enrolled at WCA. Does this mean you won't be coming back? Everyone in school is missing you already. Sahara said that you will be coming back over the holidays. Want to visit the tombs of Nether? Take care.

-Erika"

That Erika. She really enjoys seeing bones and dead bodies. I guess I'll be joining her. I hope everyone comes.

I'm not

I don't think I'm the jealous type. I've never been jealous of anything in my life.

Interviewing Reid

Tall, dark and handsome? Plus a body to boot. That's Reid Maher. He's been hanging with us lately and I got curious about that last time we spoke to each other, one on one. He said "They're gone... If you want to get any further then you have to pay me...". I gave him my snack and he told me parts of his story. 

Why didn't I sound myself during my opening sentence? Well, I got the chance to interview him about stuff. I...caught him off guard so I didn't have to pay him. My technique would be a secret since most of you might do the same thing to him and he might start hating people and get frustrated. He's quite the shy boy. So the interview starts here:

So Reid, your necktie colour is red so it means you're somewhere between 17 to 18. But why is it that I get the feeling that you're really old?
-Uhm... I don't really know if you would believe me or not, well probably not but, I've been living for so long. I've lost count of how many years have passed. 

Hmm...Peculiar, say, which planet did you say you were from?
- Juno...I'm from Polos. 

Oooh... You said you're quite the workaholic. Having been working for so long, which job did you like the most? And, are you working now?
- I like being a waiter. Serving people in a restaurant. Seeing their happy faces when they get their orders and start tasting them. But the last part just made me sound like a chef. I'm not really good at that. I also enjoyed being a gigolo. Apart from the pleasure I got from the job, my boss was really nice. When my parents died and most of my family were gone, she was the one who took me in. Even though I refused. My co-workers said that I was a favourite since my boss ask for me quite often. But she's just teaching me stuff that I don't know yet. I'm not quite experienced before when I was young...

Interesting...Now the following questions are from fellow classmates. Seeing as you've had many experiences with women, has there been someone who caught your attention?
- Although there have been a number of beautiful and rich women, I'm afraid I am not allowed to engage myself in that kind of relationship. Also, I tend to look at someone as part of my job. I can't see someone in normal way anymore as I've been raised my my boss like this.

I see lots of girls from other sections confessing their love to you. I'm curious, what is it in girls that you like or what do you see in women? Any particular type?
- Why has this turned into a love thing? Anyway, uhm, I don't really have a type. Anyone that catches my heart at the moment would be that person that I decide to like. I like confident women like my boss...

You mention your boss a lot don't you? You in love with her?
- No, not really...she's...around 40, you know?

YOU'VE BEEN HAVING SEX WITH A 40 YEAR OLD?
- she pays me -_-

Enough about that...why do you reject those women?
- I don't have much money. I'm worried about dates and food and stuff. I might not meet their expectations...

Recently, you told everyone that you would never love someone more than how you love money, and that you would never exchange money for women. But how come you treated my cousin Sabrina to lunch after you guys practised dancing? You're really frugal right? Are you by any chance, interested in her?
- e-erm, Spurtmear is different isn't she? She's really noisy and does whatever she wants. She was one of the first people I met because along with Vanilla and Connor. She was seated right beside me... Anyway, that time, she was really good at leading, I didn't really do much. So I just treated her. It was a lucky time because I just had my pay a day ago. I even got a bonus. The bonus was the one I spent on lunch. You can't say I'm not interested... She's quite interesting...

Is she... But I have been observing you for days now Reid. You like to stick to her, don't you?
- Do I? I don't really notice. Probably because i'm not used to the cafeteria... I need some people to stick to, right?

How do you feel about Alvin Ceika?
-Ceika is really nice... I don't talk that much with him even though we're in the same house... I'm usually out working so that's that... wait a sec, this interview has gone too long, lunch is almost over...Why don't we eat?

Actually, Otto and I ate already during class. We're leaving you with Sabrina, that okay?
- w-wait a sec...wait!

See you cousin... 

And Sabrina bids us farewell. We left them be that time. I wonder what they did... Isn't his crush for Sab, obvious? Wait, am I supposed to say that out loud? Sorry Reid :) 

Fear oh Fear

Nether is not really known for having people who get scared easily. Most of the population of the planet is fearless. But that doesn't mean there are things that doesn't bother us. I don't know if you would call this fear, I just call it really bothersome. But I don't like the presence of ugly things. I like beauty and leisure. I don't like mess and rubbish. I haven't asked Otto what bothers him. It would probably be people who make an effort. Well, that's according to what I have observed.

Who was the first

Hmm... I can't seem to remember who the first person I met was. Well naturally it was Sabrina. I was told that she was my cousin. I only knew a year before I turned 17. I think I met her once though, back in my childhood. But everything seem blurry. So if it isn't Sabrina, then maybe it was either Paris or Skye. We came to school at the same time. I didn't do some travelling before so I only got to knew people in Nether and those who visit our planet. But I'm quite shy so Sahara did all the work.

Vanilla

So, I was assigned to go out with Vanilla. It's really weird going out with a girl. It's my first time. I'm not an Artemisian so I don't know how it feels. I heard some of them go out with each other. But I'm not too sure. Hanging out with Vanilla for a week gave information about her. Some are even dark. It creeps me out that I can't say it out loud. There are also information that even Vanilla herself doesn't know. It made me curious so I extended the ability for another three days. We WERE supposed to go out for a week so why not take this chance? I'm not telling the info though. Aside from Otto, I thought he ought to know.

A picture of me

Otto took a picture of me :D Thanks Otto. He even edited it.

I am horrified.

I just saw Diamond watching Disney princesses at our lounge. I'm going to my room...

Dancing is fun

We have this class called dancing. It's somewhat similar to the rituals we're doing. It's so fun. I got Alvin as my partner but it seems that he isn't skilled enough. Hmm, will this be a problem? How I wish I was paired up with Erily.

Scarred

I have been deeply scarred.

Sahara

Sahara and I get along well. We don't fight at all. OH WAI-- Yeah, we don't fight at all. :)

Talk about siblings part 5

I went inside my room and grabbed some snack that I wanted to share with Otto and everyone in class. I headed back to school and I saw Maher sitting at one corner, looking so frustrated. I sat beside him. We were really silent for the past 15 minutes. He started talking. He had this really sad look in his eyes. Then he said "They're gone." I didn't quite get it so I asked again. "What?" He replied with a "If you want to get any further, then you'll have to pay me." He was really obsessed with money. I had none so I gave him my snack. He went for it anyway. He said that no one in his family but him is alive. He also said something about it being a long time ago... He really IS peculiar.Then he said to keep it a secret. I said "sure." and smiled. Then I said that I'd be heading to class and left him. I took a look back at him. He was still staring, so I smiled back again. Then I went on. After an hour, he came back and gave me my snack back. He said that he's not sure of the taste since it's foreign. I thought that it was just a lame excuse to return my snack back. In my defence, Snack tasted nice. It's Nether after all. :D

This concludes my "talk about sibling" topic. I realised that not everyone has had happy lives with their siblings. It's not "agreeing" with each other all the time. Unlike Sahara and I. Life really is unfair to some. 

Talk about siblings part 4

Lee: When she got home, she was all bruised again. I was surprised to see her that way. Hours before she got back home she was fine and clean. Now she's all dirty. I asked her what was wrong. All she said was "noting" in a really timid voice. I asked her again. "what's wrong? When we departed you were fine. And now you come back like this?" "I had club practice today, I just forgot" she said. She seemed really down. "Club practice? What kind of club violently practices on their school uniform? Did you go to the roof top?" She seemed unable to answer and was cornered already. She just replied with a yes. A thought came to me and because I was so frustrated I shouted at her while asking "ARE YOU BEING BULLIED!?" She was silent for a moment, and nodded her head. She grabbed my  arm gently and said "I'm being bullied. Big brother, help me. I can't fight back..." She was almost crying and she felt really pitiful. The next day I was so mad that I ranted at the whole school and searched for those three people I saw at the roof top. I found the two girls. Of course, they were scared like hell. I shouted and shouted while asking what happened. They spilled everything and told me that the guy was the one beating my sister up. I grew more angry. I dragged the two girls to the "beater's" classroom. I yelled his name and forcefully grabbed him in his neck. He was begging me to let go but I didn't until we got to the roof top. I threw the two girls in one corner but I didn't let go of the guy. He was the one who fucking beat my littler sister! Who would let go of that guy's neck? I strangled him using my left hand while the girls were watching in fear. I stared at them with killing intent, they were already crying out of intense fear. I called Kajishi up and asked her to go to the roof top. After 10 minutes she arrived and went to me. She saw they guy and was irritated...
London: What happened to the guy?
Lee: *whistling*
Jin: Aah, let me take it from here. He killed the guy. Blood was all over. At the floor, in his hands. And some of it were splattered to the girls at the corner. Kajishi went barmy when she saw the dead guy's body. She went like the usual Kajishi that Kai knows. Foul-mouthed. The two girls saw Kajishi's true nature and was scared. One even said "s-so that's your true nature, huh? you're really foul!" but she snapped and said "What the fuck did you just say? FOUL? ME? It's not like I was trying to hide it. I DID VERBALLY ABUSED THIS GUY, REMEMBER? " She really had quite a scary stare there. Even Kai was scared.
Lee: Pssh! No I wasn't! In the end, everybody kept their mouths shut about what I did. Kajishi told me the reason for her bullying. She snapped at the girl who happened to be the guys friend. He insulted her and she said mean things to him. Since he was a guy, he had the upper hand, physicality wise. Everyday they bullied her. The reason why she kept her mouth shut was because she felt like it was her fault and that her real intention was to make friends with them in the first place but it lead to a misunderstanding. She thought that keeping her mouth shut would make them forgive her. She was also afraid of the guy's strength. She couldn't fight back as he was strong. 

Wow, How I pity his little sister. Another interesting person to impossibly meet. This was most probably the most longest story I've heard for the day. It's quite sad if you think about it that way. But turn it upside down and it's funny. I told them I had to be somewhere so I took my leave. Of course, I thanked them for the stories. As I left, I heard Lee mumbling something to Jin, but I didn't mind that since I really needed to be somewhere. Luckily, I remembered the path back to our house.

Talk about siblings part 3

The bell rang, and we went back to our classroom. We waited for 30 minutes and again, there was no professor. Where are they? I went on a walk outside to get some fresh air. I saw Ceika with his Robot. They seemed to be arguing. I greeted them. Ceika smiled and I went ahead. Then I stumbled upon Sabrina. She seemed to be making something. "HEY! SAB!" I cried. She turned around and went to me. I asked her what she was doing and straightforwardly, she said that she was making a time-hole. She wanted to go back in time but didn't have time. She thought that she would make use of this free time we had. But I caught her and so she held back on the idea of time travelling. We went for a stroll and again, we saw Ceika and Cain. She went to Ceika and greeted him then she coldly stared at Cain. Cain something that irritated her and she kicked his leg. Doesn't really make any difference though. He couldn't feel a thing after all. I walked up to them and asked Ceika about his siblings. He paused and had this confused look. I understood why he displayed such a face. Who would answer right away when you're being asked of the most random-est thing. He answered my question though. He said that they were four siblings in the family. He said that his parents passed away and that it was his aunt who took care of them. Again, he had twins in the family. How interesting is everyone? He had an older sister and Twins after him. How cool. Sabrina was curious why I suddenly asked him and I told her the reason. I also told her that there is no reason to ask her about her family since I already know about it from staying with her for three days. I took my leave and left them there. I heard Cain begging Ceika to make him a younger sister. Now, I wondered who my next interviewee would be. I didn't know where others were. I kept walking on the school grounds and before I knew it, I was already strolling through some forest-like path. It's my first time being there. I heard growling and such. It scared me but I kept continuing to walk. I realised it was Jin and Lee doing the growling. They were having their usual fights. They stopped for a minute to rest, and because they felt weird that a girl caught them doing that in the middle of the forest. I went to them and squatted. I asked them the same question Otto was asking. Both looked at me weirdly. The whole conversation went like this...

London: Hey, do you mind me asking if you guys have siblings? How are they?
Jin: Hmm, siblings, huh? I don't really have one. I'm an only child. I dont really know how having a sibling feels. But then again, I've got lots of cousins, so I think they're the same. This guy has a sibling. Don't you Kai?
London: Really? you do? Is it a girl or a boy? older or younger? How is your sibling?
Lee: I really have to tell you?
London: yes, Basically.
Jin: Well, I'll start from here, since I'm pretty close to their family. This guy has a younger sister. Her name is Kajishi and she's SO precious to him. This guy wouldn't let other guys confess nor lay a finger on her. Because of this, she grew up having a foul mouth but still maintains to be lovable. Cute little Kajishi :3
Lee: I'll kill you for saying that. Well, you're partly correct. She has and had always had a foul mouth. It's just that before, she was considerate enough not to show everyone in her school. We were transferees back then. I was starting my 3rd year in middle school while she was in first year. We were both new. She knew no one there and so she kept her mouth shut. She also seemed to have distanced her self to avoid verbal slips. But when we're at home she'd always complain and use bad words on everything. But she isn't really angry, she's just voicing her thoughts. One day she went home bruised but I didn't ask any further since I couldn't really care less. But then this incident repeated for a few more days and I grew curious. I tried asking but all she said was that she joined a new club. I didn't mind. Until a letter was sent to me accidentally. I thought it was for me since it said "To Lee" it said to meet up at the roof top this afternoon. I went ahead and saw two girls and a boy. They were shocked to see me. and ran. I was curious. But then I decided to head back home. I saw Kajishi on the way and she asked me where I was. I said that I went to the roof top since someone sent me a letter. She had this surprised look on her face and ran back to school shouting that I should go home. Since I never really meddled in her business, I did what she said...


In my head, thoughts like "wow, I never realised Lee could talk this much..." were floating about. He continued telling his story, and I continued listening.

Talk about siblings part 2

I answered Vanilla and said that we were talking about our siblings. I also explained the whole Nether thing where we all have twins. She found it amusing, she was curious how Nether was spoken and asked us to teach her. But she gave up in the middle. It wasn't really easy. Again, Otto was curious and asked Vanilla if she had any siblings. But Vanilla couldn't understand Otto since he was speaking Nether. That man should really turn his translating device on. I translated what Otto said and Vanilla said that she had a brother. This is what she said...

Vanilla: "Oh, yes. I have an older brother. His name is Taka and he's really like a prince."
Me: "wow, a prince. That sounds nice. :)"
Vanilla: "Oh you think it sounds nice, huh? He acts really princey and he's always like a bitch. He isn't at all arrogant but you'd really get irritated by how he acts. He really feels that he's so important. He's also physically weak since he doesn't go out that much. You can say that he's lazy. He's been home-schooled until some recent news that I've heard about him attending my former high-school with an uneducated cousin of mine. Even though he was home-schooled, he's quite smart. He doesn't really care much even though people are saying bad things about him. I know he gets annoyed deep inside. I mean, that guy is just like a carbon copy of my dad's personality. They're so alike. Full of themselves and all that shit. I guess that sums up my brother. For now."


Interesting. Vanilla's brother is something. I haven't met anyone like that yet. I would be glad to meet her brother. But I think that's highly  impossible. He's royalty after all. Maher was sleeping when all of this happened. He woke up because he thought that Vanilla was noisy, and decided to go sleep in the infirmary but Otto stopped him. He was just seated beside him that time. Otto stared at me, and somehow, I already knew what he meant. He wanted me to ask the same question that he asked Vanilla. Maher evaded the question by forcefully making Otto let go of him. And he did. He was a peculiar one. Connor went up to Vanilla and invited her to go to the cafeteria. He also invited Otto and I. I bought a snack. So did the others. Otto was giving me the same stare as before. So I went and asked ahead. Connor said that he had 3 little siblings. Twins and a younger sister. The word twins alarmed us and we asked further. It seems that the twins are named Caleb and Callum. Caleb was more soft and Callum was more energetic. Wow, they could be potential Nethers. The other one was Chelsea. She was just four years old. Connor said that I remind him of Chelsea since we both always have smiles on our faces. Do I really smile that often? Connor was really cute when he was describing his siblings to us. He was so passionate, you could tell that he's family oriented. What a happy guy.

Talk about siblings part 1

During our 5th period, our professor was absent so everyone thought it was free time already. Some left our classroom, and some, like yours truly, stayed. A few minutes later, Otto went up to me and sat at the seat in front of mine which belonged to Sabrina. She might have gone somewhere. And so sits Otto. We were speaking in Nether so no one actually understood us when we were talking. Suddenly, he opened up a very weird topic. He suddenly went like "How's your twin? Is it a girl or a boy? What are your differences?" It was really frank of him to ask the question, but I was curious about his too, so I answered back with a "I'll tell you mine if you tell me yours. Deal?" He went for the deal. I told him that my twin was a girl. Her name is Sahara, and the obvious difference between us is that she has short hair and I have long hair. She's also a little soft spoken and always displays a dissatisfied look on her face. As though she is angry or something. But she isn't. I told him to judge me and he said that I display a smile all the time and I'm easier to approach. Those actually surprised me. Sahara wasn't really the approachable type. But would you believe it or not? She's actually friendly. Even friendlier than I am. She was the reason I knew Merilee and Erika. And all her other friends. Do we agree with each other? Of course we do, we're best friends, me and her. Then I went on and asked Otto about his twin. He said that he had a brother. His name was Matrix. And all he told me is that he's paranoid. He never mentioned anything else. I paused for a bit and thought... Since this IS Otto's twin we're talking about, he's probably more industrious than Otto himself. Otto is a lazy man, as far as I have seen. He never actually did anything at our dormitory. Matirx could also probably be more prone to displaying his emotions since Otto doesn't. He always has that still face. All the time. And judging from what Otto said, his bother being Paranoid. He might be extra suspicious of people around him. What a funny chap. We were laughing about it when Vanilla suddenly interrupted. She was shocked to see Otto laughing and found it really curious. She went like "Whoa, Otto was laughing back there. What were the two of you talking about?" And that question leads to part two of this blog post...

Things are great

I've been finding school fun. Not much homework. Hanging out with fellow Nethers and doing rituals. Before I used to do rituals alone, good thing Otto is there to do it with me. As usual, Sab has been trying her best to chant. I just stare and smile. I have not spoken to Erily yet. I miss him. I tried speaking to the guy beside me who's Jan. He's weird though. Making odd reactions when I say something.

Class

Classes started and I was absent. Together with Sabrina and another Nether. I was shocked to see her arrive the night of first day as well. She said she attended on some business. What also shocked me is another Nether is also studying in WCA. I met him at the spaceport but didnt really speak to him since I never knew he's going here as well. I only spoke to him when I saw him going straight to WCA. It seems that we are from the same country as well. Would you look at that. His name is Otto Lancer. The hurricane also made him skip first day. We live in the same boarding house here too. He resides at the room next to mine. Isn't that a coincidence? Oh well, at least I have someone to get along with aside from Sabrina.

Still not gone

The hurricane is now in Nirvana. I still can't get out, it's not safe yet. I hope that the hurricane would disappear tomorrow. So that I could leave. I wanted to meet new people too, what a bummer. Anyway, I tried contacting Sabrina and it seems that she wont be able to come to the first day as well. It's okay though, it means that I wouldn't be seeing Skye's face for a day. That would be fun, but I also won't see Erily.

By the way, my friends' Merilee and Erika are from Oasis. I hope they're doing well, considering the hurricane hit them yesterday. It must be storming there right now. The hurricane hit our country first, that's why I can blog today. oh. 

Disaster

Right now, something really awful is happening in Nether. School's almost starting and I'm afraid that I might not be able to make through the first day. I can't leave Nether. We're in a State of Calamity. Hurricanes have been lingering about in the countries here. Right now there are storms in Eden. The Hurricane is hitting Nether(the country) real bad. But I hope everything's okay. I dont know about  the state of other countries. I can't go to space port which is at Oasis. *sad sigh*

I swam

We went to the pool the other day. It was fun. I didnt know I could swim. I mostly spent the time with Otto since he's Nether as well. The others were too busy teaching those who can't swim so we left them be. It seems that there's going to be a contest of some sort to be held the next time we swim and I was asked to be the judge. Otto is going to be the referee. So yeah, good luck to those competing.

It's been a while

It has...

After taste

The trip to see the statue is a success. Now I feel complete. I'll post pictures a little late though, I still have to figure out how to work this pre-historic thing out. It was really fun. Merily and Erika were nonetheless, fun to be with. They got along well with my parents. Sahara and I went to this Spa, we enjoyed that. No one else knew about the spa thing. We bought a lot of new outfits as well. I got a pirate outfit to match Merily and Erika. Sahara got a some sort of tribal outfit. Dad took most of the pictures. Mum suggested on visiting Neptune next, but she suddenly said that it might not be a good idea to go near the Sorcerer's country. Aww, Sabrina lives there.

This week

The family is attempting to go and see the statue of the Goddess of Nether. It is the best tourist spot in Nether.  A friend of mine already went there and convinced me. We're going with Merilee's family. I'll post pictures after the trip.
