first trick

[crowheaded.livejournal.com]

[A teenage boy appears out of nowhere, followed by the whine of Air Trecks, soaring impossibly fast and followed by a riptide of wind. But where he just came from, there was sun, not stars. He skids to a stop on the impossible ground and reaches up to his face, where he pulls a pair of goggles back over his forehead. His hair is incredibly unruly, and considering the loose unbuttoned manner of his shirt, he doesn't seem like he’d be too polite. If anything, he’s a street punk, especially with those A-Ts. He gazes around with a rather confused expression.]

Whoa, that’s not what was supposed to happen. Guys? Kazu? Onigiri? Buccha? Agito? This place is kinda...

[He rubs at the back of his head and walks around, trying to figure out who might have done this. But there’s no wind except him, so it couldn’t be a trick, right?]

Well... shit.

IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII *BREATHS* KKIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII!!!!

[Have a little boy tackle hug you and attach himself permanently to your arm, Ikki]

[crowheaded.livejournal.com]

[something like verbal keysmashing]

Akito! Do you have any idea what's going on? [He frowns while casually peeling off the fangirlboy.] Where the hell are we?

[bloodyroadking.livejournal.com]

[EXCITED] We're on the Astral Plane!!

[Re-attaches self] I've been coming here for months, Ikki-kun took forever to show up!

[crowheaded.livejournal.com]

The who in the what now?!

[detaches again] How is that possible? I'm pretty sure you could've said something!

[bloodyroadking.livejournal.com]

The Astral Plane! It's like a place where lots of people from different worlds meet. I have no idea how it works, but it does.

I did! Lots of times! You made fun of me!! [reattaches]

[crowheaded.livejournal.com]

That's crazy. ... And kinda cool. But still crazy.

Uhh, Akito? [detaches] I'm pretty sure I would've remembered hearing about something like this.

[contract_star]

[Have a Hei, who still has a cold.] Another one?

[crowheaded.livejournal.com]

[Ikki doesn't remark on the man's stuffiness.]

Eh? What do you mean, 'another one'? I'm the one and only Minami Ikki. [He grins and pushes his goggles up with his thumb.]

[contract_star]

[Sniffs a little and smiles, gesturing at Ikki's feet.] The skates. There are a couple of other people here with them.

[crowheaded.livejournal.com]

[Ikki lifts one up a little, obviously fond of them.] Ah, these? They're more than just skates.

As for the other guys... you think they'll show up? I gotta admit, I'm curious.

[contract_star]

[Chuckles.] I figured as much, considering your entrance.

I expect they will, at some point. There's Agito-Akito, though I haven't seen him around much lately...the others look like they're part of some visual kei band. There's four of them, but I only know Romeo and Juliet.

Ah, this is the Astral Plane, in case you haven't heard. It's a crossroads between worlds.

[crowheaded.livejournal.com]

Yeah, Akito and Agito are part of my team back ... uh, home. [Now THAT description gets him headscratching.] You gotta be kidding me. They sound like something out of a book.

Akito told me, but that was all. So you're not from my world? You don't look like an alien to me.

[blinks, Juliet knows the guy, but something is not entirely feels right, but oh well~~ ]

Aaara~~~ [smiles smiles~] Ikki-kun, long time no see~! What a surprise to meet with you in a place like this~

[crowheaded.livejournal.com]

[And Juliet's about to figure out why. Ikki turns around and gives Juliet a nice long look. He's not all that pleased. Confused, more like.]

Who the hell...? Are you a girl or a guy?

[bacchusprincess.livejournal.com]

[... laughs, it may sound slightly creepy, and try not to notice that dark aura that just appeared only for a tiny little minute~!]

[bows slightly] I'm an actor therefore I can be anything I want~~ A lady this time~ But let's hear about you Ikki-kun~ How is your training going since the last time we met~~~?

[crowheaded.livejournal.com]

... Wow, you're some kinda homo.

Sorry to burst your bubble, princess, but I think this is the first time we've met.

[bacchusprincess.livejournal.com]

[refuses the urge to facepalm. But POUTS.] Well crows like you'll never understand the art of an actor~ ah~

Mmm, are you sure about that~? Or just embarraassed at the fact that you almost got defeated by us~? [beams~]

[bacchusprince.livejournal.com]

[Oh! Another familiar face, but this time not one of his own team, but it's still enough to grab his attention~]

Minami Ikki! [Skates over to him and bows, just a little] So wonderful to know another great team leader has made it here!

[crowheaded.livejournal.com]

[This must be the other team, Ikki decides, because they all look like something out of a really bad visual kei magazine. Only, they found Air Trecks instead of guitars. Interesting. Flattery is nice, too.]

That's right. [He adjusts his goggles, giving Romeo a slightly calculating look and a smirk.] 'Another'? So you lead the other team I heard about?

[bacchusprince.livejournal.com]

Yes, of course! You don't remember?... [He's pretty sure their whole interaction should be a long lasting memory!] I am Romeo, of the school's drama club.

[crowheaded.livejournal.com]

Drama club? We have one of those? [Honestly perplexed.] We've never met. Sorry to disappoint you, being a fan and all.

[bacchusprince.livejournal.com]

[GASP] How can you not remember us? We're the great Team Bacchus! We stole your emblem and everything!

[bacchusfool.livejournal.com]

[Ah, now there's a crow-head he recognized~]

Crow! [Rolls on over, a hand to his chest] Of all the places to meet again~

[crowheaded.livejournal.com]

[Ikki's already in something of a bad mood, so when another one of the Plaid rolls up, he just rolls his eyes.]

How many of you ARE there? I've never seen you freaks in my life.
