"I love beatle bugs!!" he yelled and ran over to the car, hugging it jokingly. ".. though I think it does need a bath." he chuckled, opening the door to the car adn pulling out a few bags adn putting them on his shoulders. He got the heavy ones on purpose so she didnt have to carry much at all.

Haley grabbed some bags and smiled at him, "This way," she said, jerking her head towards the building where the dorms and classrooms were. She tried to remember who her roommate was, just in case she was in the room when Haley got there. Haley thought it started with an S, but she was going to check later.

The campus was already beginning to be filled with cheerful, chatty students busily acquiring friends like trading cards, unloading caseloads of essential survival gear for school, checking out potential squeezes and basically just acting like superficial teens. In truth, it pissed Sephora off to no end. Maybe it was that she herself was incapable of doing so, but more likely because she thought it was stupid. Crushing a soda can in her vice-like grip, she stowed the trash away and began to scale back down the tower in grace usually attributed to the Gifted. However, if you inquired, she'd probably hit you in the face and once you lay on the floor wondering where the sledgehammer came from, she'd tell you that actually her abilities came from countless years climbing trees in various neighbourhoods. Swinging the can-filled bag back up onto a shoulder, she chose the path of least resistance to the ground floor- vaulting over the concrete lip that prevented students from falling off the roof, she lowered herself down onto a boarder window jutting out from the school building and then, from there, she dropped to the ground, landing on the balls of her feet and with legs bent, the way she learned with difficulty many years ago. Tripping across the pink lawn, face contorted comically with sheer disgust, she picked up the soda can and, with aplomb, dumped it with all its brothers into a recycling can. She may have had no concern for human life but she was pretty damned concerned with the environment. Gathering her things from where she had stashed them behind a tree, she began to head up to her room, abhorring the thought of sharing her room.

Edward followed her, happy to have a friend but slightly depressed because he thought it would never last. He was watching her when the bottom of one of her bags ripped open and underclothes fell to the ground. Damn it. he thought to himself, forgetting that she could hear his thoughts temporarily.

Darnit! she knelt down and tried to gather the undergarments before he noticed what had fallen out of the bag. She looked up as someone walked by, thoroughly embarrassed.

Israel walked around outside for a while, obversing the other students. None of them appeared to be 'special' and this worried him. He did not want his sister to stick out of the crowd. If it came down to it, he would tell father to take Adrian back home. He walked back to his room, deciding not to tell Adrian to come outside until later. He opened the door to his room and decided to look out the window and wait for his roomate to show up. Father had always taught him to make aquaintences before pursuing personal bussniuess.

Pepper smiled and left her room just how she wanted it, she walked back out onto the bright pink lawn and laid down under the bright sun, it's warming rays seemed to dance on her light skin. Her pink hair was almost the same shade as the grass beneath her and she smiled. She sighed the changed the lawn color to a bright neon orange. It was very obnoxiously bright, but she loved it and she loved the control she had over it. Slowly she rolled over and let the sun warm her back, so that she could be evenly bright.

Rufus decided to venture into his room and meet the most likely horrible roommate. He stood in the doorway, eying the room. As he looked at Israel, he cleared his throat loudly. He stood ram-rod straight, looking over the room. It looked to be clean, at least this boy hadn't messed it up in the short amount of time that he had been there.

Israel heard someone clear thier throat behind him and turned quickly on his heel to see another boy. He seemed clean cut, hopefully this wasn't an act. Taking several steps forward, Israel took his left hand and ran it through his hair and extended his right hand to Rufus.
"Pleasure to meet you. I am Israel, your roomate."

"Sorry.' he whispered, blushing darkly. He knew that had been all of his fault, just because of his 'specialness'. He would have helped her pick up her things if they had not been what they were that fell.

Rufus shook the boy's hand firmly, trying to show the he was in charge here. "Rufus," he said, keeping his face neutral. He watched the boy's actions quietly, checking to see if he'd be able to live with this boy for a year.
Haley quickly got the clothes into the bag, "Its alright," she murmured, "Not your fault," she stood up, "Well-er-right here." she didn't look at him, she was too embarrassed to.

Israel matched Rufus' hand shake and ran a hand through his hair again.
"Sorry, my hair never seems to stay in place." He took a step to the side so that Rufus' view was not blocked.
Seems like a nice guy. I wonder if he is a special student...

"That's fine," he said, then went over to his bed. Rufus set some of his things down, meticulously placing them so that they wouldn't block anything. He eyed his area, "Don't touch anything, okay?" he said.

Israel nodded to Rufus, respecting his distance long before he even knew and went back to his spot looking out the window.
"As you wish. Tell me, Rufus was it?... How 'special' are the students here at this school?"

"You are a normal," he said, then looked at Israel, "Think Superman, Spiderman, Flash, people like that." He opened a suitcase and began to unpack.
