Newcomers. And with the headmaster being the one to handle the transport arrangements? Yeah, it was easy to see why members of the discipline team and the Moon Dorm's leaders had made their way to the gate. In separate groups of course. Yuki had gone on ahead, leaving Zero with his twin brother to make their way to the gate themselves. From what the pair heard, two male hunters would be joining them, and due to the very fact that they were hunters, would be part of the discipline team. Though, they had been warned that the younger one could be a handful.
"Eh~ Nii-san, what do you think of the newcomers from what we've heard?"
"A handful." That was all the older Kiryuu brother said, for the gates soon loomed in the distance, and both boys quickened their pace, the atmosphere surrounding them already awkward enough. As such, it would be imperative that they reached the gates soon, before something... embarrassing happened.
~~~~~
"Hmm, the newcomers seem like they'll brighten up the dorm a little, don't you think, Kaname-san?"
"Perhaps." It was the only answer Takuma received, but the aristocrat smiled nonetheless, knowing the reason behind Kaname's actions that evening.
It wasn't often they received transfers, and they could often be rowdy. Since it was a given Yuki would be there, Kaname would either send one of the others to ensure order was kept or go himself. Due to the large number of new students - and the fact that there would be purebloods among the transfers - Kaname felt it would be better if he went to greet the newcomers himself, and Ichijo volunteered to come with him and assist him should he need the help.
This was accepted by Kaname, and the pair made their way to the gates, with Ichiru being thankful that the Day Class girls were not out... yet. Of course, following the pureblood and the aristocrat was Aido, and it didn't escape neither Kaname's nor Takuma's attention that Senri had went on ahead. After all, it was pretty hard to keep things hidden from your best friend.
"Eh! It seems like we're here now, Kaname-san."
"Aido?" Aido groaned. He knew what Kaname was going to say, but he was already in enough trouble with the pureblood. Thus, the vampire backed away, knowing that it would be best to keep to himself that day. Besides, he could always find the girls later.... For now, he would simply stay by the sidelines, unless he was needed.
Kaname and Takuma first went to greet the Sun Dorm females, Yuki, Evial and Sayori. Though, Takuma did spare a glance at the newcomers, trying to figure out who was what. From what they had heard from the Headmaster, there would be ten new students, 8 of which would reside in the Moon Dorm while 2 were Hunters, residing in the Sun Dorm. A Neko, a witch, an Avian, a Level D Vampire and four purebloods. Fun.
"Good evening, Yuki. And to you as well, Evial, Sayori. We'll take the Moon Dorm students off your hands now, unless there is a reason why we cannot?" Kaname directed his question mainly to Evial, for it was she who was to greet the new students who came.
He ignored Senri and Kestrinley, for there would be time later to deal with them. Though, he had already known that Senri would be here, due to Takuma, so the red-haired vampire was off the hook, for now. As for the pureblood... Well, Kaname would decide later. For now, he had to make sure the newcomers knew the rules around here, or the ones that wouldn't get them in trouble with the disciplinary team at least. The other rules they could learn from other members of the Moon Dorm.
Takuma on the other hand, having finished his greeting, directed his gaze towards the new students. The two leaders had yet to receive the name list and roomings of the newcomers due to some... delays, and were pretty much clueless about them besides what species they would be. Fortunately, one of the other vampires would be delivering the details to Kaname's room later on. But for now, it would be best to ask if Yuki knew anything about them. "Yuki-san, do you know anything about the new students?" Takuma asked softly, hoping his voice wouldn't be heard by the newcomers.

The four purebloods sat in the shadows of a black limousine, the black tinted windows blocking most sunlight from reaching them. They were sitting comfortably, and only when it was dusk did any one of the four dare open the window. Even then, they did not reel it down fully, for who knew what Hunter could be waiting to drive a weapon into their hearts or heads? It was unlikely, but it was possible.
Currently, blood dripped down from the second youngest vampire, as he fed from his eldest brother's wrist. The older blond felt no pain though, and let his younger brother feed, for he had been trying to get accustomed to the pills, like Yan. However, Lei and Edward were another matter. Being young, it would be hard for them to adapt, more so for Lei, for he was the youngest.
"How are you faring, Lei?" Cao Lei blinked, for he had been dozing off.
"I am fine, brother." It had been a long time since he last heard his first name being used like that. Like most chinese of the past, he was accustomed to being called by last, then first name, unless the caller was family or close friend. Of course, there was the matter of his styled name, Qingfeng. Unlike his two older oriental brothers, Cao Lei was more used to high standards than them, and preferred to be called by his styled name. Though, as times change, so did Cao Lei knew that he had to adapt. Perhaps he would do so at the new school?
"Oh guys, we're here~" It was easy to tell that the voice belonged to that of Zhang Yan, for the sing song in his voice gave it away.
"So soon?" Guo Ling.
"Yes, brother. I can't wait though. I wonder what will be awaiting us." Yan laughed in reply. It was true that he couldn't wait, and already one could tell by the way his eyes sparkled in excitement.
After the car had came to a complete stop, the passenger-side door opened, and one by one the purebloods made their way out of the limo, Edward wiping his blood stained mouth on a napkin he had brought. All four made their way to the gates, empty-handed, for their things had been brought ahead of them. As they joined the growing crowd at the gates, they stuck close to the back of the group, close together, surveying their surroundings. For now, until they knew the others, they would trust in only each other. Though, Guo Ling and Zhang Yan would be more social than their younger brothers.
~~~~~~
Unlike the purebloods they had been tailing, the Sima brothers took a more simple black car. It was just right to fit them and the driver, plus another in the left front seat. Perhaps one day their older cousin could join them here. This school did accept transfers all year round. But, only at dusk, only at dusk. It was understandable. Not too late for humans, not too late for the night creatures.
"Are we-"
"Yang, should you dare say 'are we there yet?' again, you will be restrained from doing anything but study."
The younger of the two shut up, only to grin mischievously a few seconds later. "Are we-"
"Yes, we are."
Yang sighed... or groaned. It could have been both really, due to the sound he emitted from his throat. "Damn it..." He muttered.
"Yang! As I said-!"
"We're here now, brother~ Let's not fight~"
Sima Ying sighed, once again, his younger brother used their surroundings against him. It was annoying, but it proved that Sima Yang wasn't as dimwitted as he acted. After all, what first impression would it give of them is Ying had started scolding Yang in public? Not a very good one.
"Come, let us go." With that, Sima Ying pushed opened the black doors, stepping out into the evening sun. Yang followed shortly after, passing one of their luggage bags to his older brother. Together, the two joined the group at the gates.
