"Sorry 'bout that. Gotta look where I'm leaving stuff I guess."
"Oww oww oww." A few thumps and a thud later Alex looked up at the person standing over him."Yeah that might be a pretty good idea.I could have been knocked unconsc....Oh hey no problem man. It happens." Now if I can only get him to place this above a stair case or something it will at least warrant a trip to the nurses office.
Taking the offered hand Alex stands and gives the fellow a nod. "Hey how's it going? Names Alex.Alex Fairchilde."

"Fairchilde? Surely not from that Fairchilde family? So are you a member of the Fairchilde family renowned for their slaying of all sorts of monsters? Wow, it's certainly a privilege. My name's Lucas Lambert, not really a well known family lineage like yours but in our own circles we have a bit of a reputation ourselves as Guncasters. If you've ever seen an impossible shot then it was done by a Guncaster. We're effectively magic users but our power is limited and we use guns as our focal points to utilse the magical energies required to do our tricks. I do love guns, I've been collecting guns since I received my first gun on my second birthday. So, looks like we'll be neighbours."
"Uh." Alex sighed slightly as Lucas rambled on about knowing his family name. 'One of those people' Where the only thoughts that drifted through Alex's mind. Why did his name always have to make people look at him like that. 'Oh not of THE FAIRCHILDE.'
"Yeah I am afraid the same family. So a Gunslinger ah? That's pretty cool. I tend to stay away from magic. Requires way to much focus and concentration."
"Confront them with annihilation, and they will then survive; plunge them into a deadly situation, and they will then live. When people fall into danger, they are then able to strive for victory. "

"Yeah, I got here early this morning.Was getting a feel for my room." More like his bed."You have any idea if we have to report of opening presentations of any kind or can I just go to my class?"
"Confront them with annihilation, and they will then survive; plunge them into a deadly situation, and they will then live. When people fall into danger, they are then able to strive for victory. "

Aoki realized he should really pay better attention to names. Names of his students he was fine with, and could ingrain them into his memory almost immediately. It was those of people around him, coworkers, people from other parts of the island, that he had trouble with. He recited the name he heard a few times, taking a sip from his precious golden brown liquid of awareness, and looked for someone who might know who this Ebony Me-King would be. He asked the first person who didn't look like a student.
