A New Student [Open/Wright]

Post by Zao » Mon Oct 21, 2024 6:18 pm

It wasn't so long ago that the slender, white-haired kid was in this very hall after being accepted into the Sky Reach academy with the help of his Auntie who took him and a few other of the war orphans from the invasion of Suna and brought them away to this place. Ziv straighten up his kimono style robe blouse as he looked around. Today was a bit of a special day, the senior student that the puppeteer was had been informed that a new student would be arriving shortly, though not too much information was given to him up front about this newcomer but they also said that he'd know them when he saw them.

Ziv felt a bit odd about their words, yet he also understood his duties as one of the senior members of his grade, despite his still young age, and the responsibilities that came with such a place. He'd be in charge of conducting the standard tour and also helping sort out the fifth-year classes that his new house mate would be enrolled in. Reaching up with either of his well-manicured fingers, the kid rubbed his eyes and face for a moment, wiping away the sleep and tiredness from his face from studying for the last round of finals as he was working towards being promoted to a first-year student and perhaps work as an assistant teacher for a bit.

Yet, that was a thought for another time as the other student that roamed the hallway were quickly transitioning between rooms, not trying to incur the wrath that some of the teachers had for those that didn't take their class seriously. 'Wonder what this guy even looks like...?' He pondered silently in his head as the bright blue orbs of the young man scanned around as the crowd began to quickly thin as they disappeared into their next block of classes.

phpBB [video] After a bit of a journey with Enzaragi and a bunch of his men, Akira had made it into this so called "Sovereignty of Freedom" and after a few discussions and decisions was finally settled into a homebase for his personal self which he didn't particularly care what or where it was so long it fit him and his personal belongings without much bother.

With that settled it was time to move onto other matters such as finding a homebase for his work self, hopefully what would be a great workshop were he could tinker and build as he pleased with a few projects already on his mind but in particular something stood out to him that would improve the quality of of capabilities in the form of a puppet.
However first things first as he was granted the opportunity to visit and become acquainted with another one of his great reasons for being in such a place, something he learned in his discussions during their trip to these lands that very much excited an old thinking man such as he; Sky Reach a grand school full of many endeavours and grand hopes and dreams.

The ancient being clanked with every step as he arrived at the illustrious seeming school and ventured down its halls, admittedly in a bit of a slow pace as he attempted to take all its grandeur in and quietly spy into the classrooms he passed to gain a proper understanding.
As such he was a bit late as he clanked his way over to find the slender boy whom was supposed to show him around, eventually eyeing him just before students crowded the halls and moved to their next class and finally approaching once they thinned.

Towering over the young, blue eyed, silver haired child the cloaked figure leaned forwards as if ready to say something but not quite mustering the words, perhaps conscious of his still broken speech and instead appearing perhaps a little monstrous as light shone across his blank and featureless puppet face as it stared at the boy instead.

There was a faint clanking noise that found its way into the ears of the young man, his gaze unconsciously drifting off in the direction of the odd sound only to see this strange, cloaked figure that towered over most of the younger aged students here at the Sky Reach academy. ‘This must be him!’ The though suddenly flashed through the mind of Ziv as he found himself snapping back to reality as the other student zigged and zagged around the figure who proceeded to move down the hallway.

At first the second-year student couldn’t quite put his finger on the thought that was forming in his mind, a quandry. Something was truly familiar about the figure of the newcomer even though he had never personally met them. After all, it was passed to him by his house master that they would be receiving a new student today, but Ziv wasn’t completely sure exactly why he’d been chosen. Before now he had thought it was because he was a somewhat levelheaded person who was able to get along easily with others, yet now there was something nagging him as he continued to allow his bright blue gaze to linger on the approaching seeing at first what appeared to be some sort of almost blank mask hiding the face of Akira.

‘Could it be?’ Suddenly it was like an epiphany had hit the boy, his level in the art of puppetry had risen greatly over the couple of years that he’d spent here in combination with the puppets that had been left by his dad that he’d been able to dissect and learn about the inner working of those puppets and their unique weapons. ‘The shape of the body, its movements patterns, even the sound that this new student’s body make…it a puppet!’ Though this left him with another unanswered question on his mind. Was this a body meant to hide the puppeteer or had this figure took the mythical leap and fully transformed his original form into that of a puppet body? This was something that even Ziv wouldn’t even consider doing.

Finally, the pair came face to face, at least in figurative terms as the puppet body of Akira was a good sized bigger than the slender framed second year but a smile had already formed on Ziv’s lips. This truly was an interesting person. “Hello.” Ziv opened as the new student neared, though it was a bit odd as the puppet frame leaned in but no sound was created, but at the same time there wasn’t even a mouth cut out on the rather plain, blank face, only a slit for where the eyes should have been. Though the figure leaned in slightly, as if about to speak nothing still was returned only a glow seemed to emanate from within the eye slit that cut across the majority of the upper portion of the mask like face.

‘Maybe he isn’t a big talker?’ Ziv tilted his head slightly in response but tried to continue in order not to let the awkward silence takeover. “Do you have any baggage or personal items we need to grab? I’ll be showing you to your new living space first, so we can drop it off there before we walk around and do a little tour of the school grounds.”

Akira regained his composure at the sound of the young boy's voice and after quickly contemplating his age, gave a gentle bow of the head and raised himself to full height as he finally spoke.
"Ah, yes, well..." he paused a moment as he tried to gather his words "Given my cur-rent cir-cum-stances all my perssonnnal affects are on my own per-son and as such we do not neeed to wor-ry about drop-ping anyyy-thing off as I aim to get a freshsh sstart in these lands" he commented, clearly having some sort of speech problem but a far improved one as far as he was concerned given the journey with Enzaragi and his men back to what as now to be his home and being roped into a multitude of continuous discussion.

With that he gave another courteous nod to the boy before glancing around to even just take in their current surroundings, feeling quite impressed by such a grand school already and the punctuality of the students from before even if it meant holding himself up due to the foot traffic.
"This certain-ly seems like a great... school in-deed and you must be quite the ded-i-cated stu-dent to be taking my-self around and you have an air of fam-liar-ity about..." he began complimenting the place then paused for a moment "AH!" he then blurted as a sense of common courtesy finally washed over him, realising neither would know who each other were as of yet
"Oh, my, I forgot to say but... You may call me Ko-dai... ahem... Kodai Akira and what of your own title?" he commented and questioned, curious to know and wishing to correct his mistake as he looked upon the young lad with great curiosity.

Ziv nodded, listening quietly and patiently for the new student to finish speaking, though he took note of the strange speech pattern that almost felt like the figure before him was almost forcing himself to speak. It was strange without a doubt but who was the white haired second year to judge anyone as he could be a bit odd on his on at time. After all, he was raised by a bunch of spirit elephants for a good portion of his youth. So, something that were natural in the human realm he still found new or even odd. But the response given by Akira confirmed a subtle thought that had been drifting in his thoughts from the moment the puppet body came into ear shot. 'So, he is a puppet human?'

We'll it was either that, or a very tiny human hiding inside that large puppet body like a suite of armor, but Ziv was inclined for the previous train of thought. "The Sky Reach academy is definitely a place for such a thing, it is actually where I was able to get a fresh start myself only a few years ago. Can't believe I've already been here two years." Though the last words were more meant for himself they were still spoken in an audible tone, despite it being a whisper like one. Time sure could fly when you were constantly finding yourself in trouble with your brothers. He smiled at the thought of his two brother and himself and the adventures and exploits the trio had been involved in. "It is my duty and pleasure as an upperclassman to help out." Akira mentioned an air of familiarity, but the blue eyes student was quite sure what he had meant by that.

"It's a pleasure to have you here at Sky Reach, Akira. Please call me Ziv." Very few at the academy besides the headmaster and a few of the first-year teachers actually knew the puppeteer's sur name, but it was for the best in order to not have him linked to the past that was his father, at least not until he was strong enough to stand on his own against those powerful threats in the shinobi world. "If you're ready, we can start our tour while the rest of the students are in their second period classes. So, we shouldn't run into too many people for the next hour or so. If we head further down this hall and up the next set of stairs, we can start at the headmaster's office." Ziv half turned, raising his slender fingers to point down the hall behind him, the same direction of travel that the new student had been walking in previously. Once everything was in order, he would gesture with his other hand for the fellow student to follow alongside as they walked down the hallway.
