Friend remain there for each other. With the ever changing seasons, just what awaits beyond the bright future of tomorrow? A new world carved by the hands of the new generation.

 S T O R YTokyo Academy is well known for having the best of the best. The future leaders of the world. Though little does the media know that underneath the happy outside shell, inside there is quiet a bit going on. The kids there are so strange, and come with a variety of different people. Though none have really come together, and social war seems to be just around the corner. Though little do they know things are going to change, with some new students after summer break, good or bad who is to say? There is one in particular that really seems to be trying to put a big impact on things.
This is Roland Keyes. Your average blonde haired pretty boy from Miami. Although, Right now he’s not in Miami. Far from it, he’s just been sent to live with his mother in Japan. Set to attend the same high school his father attended. Now this would normally be insignificant, but it just so happened that his father was one of the more famous writer directors back home. That was until his untimely demise on set. Death by care bears....tragic.
Well, Roland’s father was a member of a film club with a rather illustrious history. Plenty of awards and what not for some pretty amazing independent films. So, Roland, wanting to follow in his fathers footsteps wants to have the same high school experience. All stoked and ready to get into a new school, Roland walks into class and is instantly alienated simply because he’s the only foreign kid attending. The girls take one look at him and think he’s a player, the guys look at him and for no reason whatsoever he can tell hate his limy guts.
His one refuge would have been the AV club, which was still established and because of it’s amazing history had a pretty good budget and a large club room. Entering the club room, there didn’t seem to be a lot of movie stuff going on. Just a bunch of students sitting around reading magazines, playing video games and mowing down junk food. Roland entered, spoke to the club captain, and then promptly introduced his knuckles to the president and the left.
The Club was a mere shadow, with the funding they had and no real need to produce results, it was now a club to simply be lazy. So, super pissed off, Roland has decided to start a new club. The Movie making Club!! Oh it was the perfect name. But now He has to go through the grueling process of getting the club approved, finding members and then showing up the retards in the AV club and steal their funding.....Saying it like that sounds malicious, but he was over it.
Come join along as we enter the life of a high school, where there is sure to be drama. Love, Sex, Drugs, and a experience full of memories, as our hero's go through the best years of ones supposed life. S E T T I N GOur Story takes Place in a school in Japan. The schools name? Why none other than the great Tokyo Academy. (Why? Cause I suck at naming buildings and places...) It's the first full week back after summer break. The school is quite big with not one but a grand total of count them three floors! First floor can be found Academic Classes, and main areas. Such as the library, cafeteria, and the front office. The second floor is a mix of Academic Classes, and extracurricular classes. The second floor is also where the the principle's office resides. Third and final floor, is devoted to clubs, having large rooms for things such as set making, Art galleries and things of that sort. But only accomplished clubs warrant the use of one of these, also a few more extracurricular classes.
The dorms are located a little off campus.West wing is girls dorms, East guys. Kids may also eat lunch on the roof. School starts at 8:00 and ends at 2:00. unLess you have after school activities such and student council.

My Conscience ~ Mr. Baron von yoko
Hellz yeah I go to school here ~ Roland Keyes
I’m that ~ Alienated transfer student
Well you could say I’m Roland is one cool customer. Loves movies with a passion bordering on deranged. He tend to have an inner monologue at times and spaces out often. Besides that he’s pretty smart. Already mastered the Japanese language and is working on french. He can be a little egotistical at times but is generally a nice chap. A little shy around girls and isn’t afraid to get into a fight.
I don’t think it’s robbing the cradle ~ 18, Held back a year
Hmph, I aint homeless ~ Roland is currently living with his mother in an apartment near the school.
Oh yeah, I got style and class! ~Roland wants to be just like his father who he idolized, minus the dying part. A famous writer and film director for major motion pictures. Retire before being killed on set is part of those plans as well.
Get that camera out of my face ! ~ Roland Keyes
My Conscience ~ Ryu Sho Sen
Hellz yeah I go to school here ~ Kokoro Masuda
I’m that ~ Mafia child
Well you could say I’m ~ How would one describe Kokoro? Well in a nutshell Kokorois just hard headed. Stubborn as hell, and an independent at heart. She hates to lose, and strives to succeed in all that she does. Kokoro speaks her mind and doesn't think twice about it, Sometimes she can seem a bit blunt and to the point, but that’s just how she is. She is very independent and never shy. However she has a habit of sometimes not listening to people. Its not that she isn't interested in your opinion, it’s more that she like doing things her way and doesn't like to be given advice or 'pointers'. If you wanted something done you had to do it yourself. With this way of thinking, she never asks for help or puts any of her troubles or feeling's on anyone. It may sound like she is anti-social but she is in fact uite the opposite. Kokoro doesn't like to be alone a lot and enjoys others company. Just because she has a habit of tuning the others out does not mean she doesn't care about them. Koko can be very defensive when it comes to the people close to her. If anyone messes with them then you can be sure that she will be breathing down their necks faster then you can even say a word. Unfortunately Kokoro doesn't have many friends that she could call close. The Masuda family is powerful, and no one dares cross them. So most people are intimidated by her, all due to her family name. On a lighter note despite being a mafia princess Koko is full of human flaws and habits. For instance, Aleta has horrible tendency to sleep in. This girl should be given an award for most logs sawed in a lifetime. One shouldn't even dare to wake her up before the light is in the sky...or she may just kill you. That is if her morning appearance hasn't already made you die of laughter.
I don’t think it’s robbing the cradle ~ 17
Hmph, I aint homeless ~ Girls Dormitory
Oh yeah, I got style and class! ~ Kokoro is expected to take over the family 'business' once she is old enough. However Kokoro has no desire to work her fathers shady business. What she really wants to do is write music, become a famous composer. Unfortunatly her father is the one person she is uable to stand up to. He isn't a very understanding man.
Get that camera out of my face! ~ Koko
My Conscience ~ OblivionMelody18
Hellz yeah I go to school here ~ Aya Tsukimura
I’m that ~ The heterosexual girl that is scared of guys.
Well you could say I’m Aya is one of the weirdest characters of the bunch. She is a quiet, though out going girl. She smiles a lot, though also cries a lot too. She laughs a lot, though she also yells a lot. She can be considered rather bi-polar. Though then again, she is a girl who is straight, though scared of men! Who wouldn't be torn with that kinda set up? Though for the most part, on good days. Aya is sweet, and kind, and mostly quiet. She is a bit scared of the world, and thinks everything is out to get her. She often spends her time reading books. Though some of those books are quiet questionable, which makes people wonder about her. She is really just a little bit of a otaku. Though not hard core.
I don’t think it’s robbing the cradle ~ 16
Hmph, I aint homelss ~ She lives in a apartment on her own, though she may switch over to the dorms sometime soon, not like it is much different. That and she feels she may be safest there.
Oh yeah, I got style and class! ~ Since the death of Aya's parents, she has bit torn a bit at the thought of even moving on in life. Being no one wanted to take her in. Though she really likes manga and stuff. She has pondered on becoming a mangka though doesn't think she is too good. Though where her real heart lies is painting. Though there is some small problems with that, such as how she can't seem to use the color red.
Get that camera out of my face ! ~
My Conscience ~ Light Kaiser Demon
Hellz yeah I go to school here ~ Daoi Maskura
I’m that ~ The Gay Guy
Well you could say I’m Very flirtous with guys, and quite a...sexy person. He loves to act out his emotions, and tries to grab Roland's attention. He's also quite clumsy, and dances a lot. You would think Roland would want him dead...right?
I don’t think it’s robbing the cradle ~ Eighteen
Hmph, I aint homelss ~ ...GirlsDorm...Kidding! The boys dorm.
Oh yeah, I got style and class! ~ Daoi plans on becoming very well known man stripper. He loves money as well, and is quite friendly to girls. As well as becoming a friendly person, he wants to own a cat, and two dogs.
Get that camera out of my face ! ~ [xI.Like.Tiarasx]
My Conscience ~ Host_Clubs_Maiden
Hellz yeah I go to school here ~ Hikaru Moroto
I’m that ~ Egotistical rich kid
Well you could say I’m Hikaru is... To say the least, slightly full of himself, thus the 'egotisical' part. He is quite cheerful, and doesn't like to pick on anybody. Though he is full of himself, doesn't mean he likes to pick on other's... He just loves to flaunt his money and good looks. To many, he seems rude, but his intentions aren't. He is quite the drama queen (erm... king), mostly when he doesn't get his way, or things don't go as planned.
I don’t think it’s robbing the cradle ~ 16
Hmph, I aint homelss ~ Boys' dorm.
Oh yeah, I got style and class! ~ Hikaru hasn't thought much about where he wants to take his life. He has thought about taking over his father's business(THough he knows little about what it is), since it has gotten him to where he was today. A rich kid.
Get that camera out of my face ! ~[Ryuu]
My Conscience ~ Amai~Kawaii.
Hellz yeah I go to school here ~ Suzuri Hatsuki.
I’m that ~ tiny person that no one ever wants to date.
Well you could say I’m somewhat shy around new people. I'd rather keep things to myself, considering everything seems to fall apart whenever I don't. Although, I'd consider myself a good person. I don't know why they don't want to date me. (;~;!)
I don’t think it’s robbing the cradle ~ Seventeen.
Hmph, I aint homelss ~ I live on my own. Couldn't stand living in the girl's dorm.
Oh yeah, I got style and class! ~ I chose to study art. I want to become a mangaka one day, and hopefully get pretty far. Heehee, I'd have Rumiko Takahashi (famous Manga artist.) as my secretary! Yes, that's how great I'll be. Unfortunately, my parents don't really aprove of my choice. So yeah, can't live at home.
Get that camera out of my face ! ~ I'm serious! I'll slice you! D:
My Conscience ~ Shoka Boom Loka
Hellz yeah I go to school here ~ Katelyn Raine
I’m that ~ Big chested Actress that so happens to be clumsy....hee hee.
Well you could say I’m Kat is an outgoing flirty girl but gets embarrassed a little easier than most, due to her clumsiness. She tends to laugh and joke at it though. Partying is something she is known for, and has enough energy to liven one up. She's just a spunky fun teenager who can also be very dramatic when the time calls for it.
I don’t think it’s robbing the cradle ~ 17
Hmph, I aint homelss ~ Girls dorm
Oh yeah, I got style and class! ~ Kat plans on being a famous actress, just like little seven year olds dream of being, She has an audition already planned out and waiting on her after she graduates, and she is just hoping she makes it. If not though, she doesn't really know what to do. Her whole life is centered around acting, for it is what she loves the most, and she said she'd kill herself if she didn't make it...
Get that camera out of my face ! ~ Kat
My Conscience ~ Mr. Baron von yoko
Hellz yeah I go to school here ~ Patrick Alfred Elkins
I’m that ~ Man whore
Well you could say I’m Patrick Elkins in 200 words or less. Patrick has traveled the world since he was very young, knocking the middle eastern countries out of the way first to toughen him up. It was a hell of a time, ever shoot a merchant for trying to sell your girlfriend ? After that, Patrick has wandered the earth on his parents bill. Of course it’s much easier to make friends with a woman than to pay for his own place to sleep. This lead to Patrick being a massive ladies man. Well besides all that stuff, Patrick embraces his British heritage and is genuine freak of nature when it come to music. Although, his tastes lean more towards the mature side. He just loves how.....smart....they are.
I don’t think it’s robbing the cradle ~ 18
Hmph, I ain’t homeless ~I am homeless, but finding a bed to sleep in has never been a problem wink
Oh yeah, I got style and class! ~ Pat’s dream is to earn his PHD in archaeology. Traveling the world, taking names and kicking a**. Discovering thousand year old ruins in some remote jungle in africa, Underwater ruins in mexico. All kinds of finds. Then, when all that is done, settle down with some young thing and inspire children as a university professor...and yes, Indiana Jones is his hero.
Get that camera out of my face ! ~The game is called "Stop bothering me"
My Conscience ~ Ryu Sho Sen
Hellz yeah I go to school here ~ Yui Asahina
I’m that ~ Student Council President
Well you could say I’m Yui is what you may call a control freak. She is slightly obsessive complusive and will freak out if things are not done her way. She is awful strict and is sure that everyone around her abides by the laws. She wont tolerate slip ups. She's a fanatical academic who is none to comfortable in the world of socializing. Those that know her just laugh at her obsessive behaviors, and those that don't know her are afraid of her. She always seems to speak her mind and she is not afraid to get in anyones face. Despite all her quirks she is a good leader for the student body even if her methods of doing things seem unorthodox.
I don’t think it’s robbing the cradle ~ 17
Hmph, I aint homelss ~ Girls Dorm, Although she spends some nights at home.
Oh yeah, I got style and class! ~ Unlike many kids Yui actually dreams of following i her parents footsteps. She comes from a prestigious family of lawyers and politicians. Yui plans to pave a future in one of those careers. She has yet to settle on which one though.
Get that camera out of my face ! ~ Yui
My Conscience ~ Rion Bloodbane
Hellz yeah I go to school here ~ Rion Galford
I’m that ~ guy who sleeps all day because he works all night.
Well you could say I’m When one catches Rion awake, they can find him to be a pretty nice person. He is an outgoing kind of guy, and confident as well. He is also a true blue mind-in-the-gutter guy, usually the first one to pop in a 'that's what she said!' when the timing is right. He uses this confident attitude sometimes in an attempt to get dates... but that's usually a hit-or-miss strategy. He's also got a loyal side to him, and would even take a bullet to save someone. He's also pretty smart, for a guy one finds sleeping in class from time to time.
I don’t think it’s robbing the cradle ~ 17
Hmph, I aint homeless ~ Technically he lives in the Boys Dorm, but he usually crashes at the shop he works in, since the owner lets him do that once it's closed.
Oh yeah, I got style and class! ~ Rion isn't sure what he wants to become, but a lot of teachers suggested he take something that would challenge his mind. He seems to take an interest in programming... but he would like a job where he didn't have to work and sleep just about every day.
Get that camera out of my face ! ~ Rion
My Conscience ~ OblivionMelody18
Hellz yeah I go to school here ~ Jade Loli
I’m that ~ The Super Attention Whore
Well you could say I’m ~ Jade is a pretty down to earth girl for the most part. Though she can be very protective, to a almost crazy point for her friends. Especially Aya, which is why she often is found by her side seven days a week. She often tries to settle conflicts, in both a calm, and even violent way. Which if it was smart it would be best to just step down. She is pretty darn well trained in fighting. With family that traces back to former ninja clan. She can often get over dramatic things. Which is why she often carries a wooden school to sword. As they took away her real one. She is a huge party and music lover. Not to mention seems to be a bit of a flirt. Which is also adds a bit of a plus side to being Aya's friend. She is known to be seen flirting with the guys she fights off. So there is often thought that she has other intentions of by being's Aya's pal. Not to mention she just loves the attention she gets, and being in the spot light in those kinds of situations.
I don’t think it’s robbing the cradle ~ 17
Hmph, I aint homelss ~ She lives in the apartment complex next to Aya.
Oh yeah, I got style and class! ~ Jade isn't too sure what she wants to do with her life, there are so many choices. She has thought of trying to start her own band, though can't really get herself into it. It's more of a hobby. She really has a passion for acting, and would really like to do voice overs for foreign films some day.
Get that camera out of my face ! ~
My Conscience ~ Mr. Baron von yoko
Hellz yeah I go to school here ~ Bartleby Fukamachi
I’m that ~ Student council vice president thing
Well you could say I’m
For the past 11 years of his life, Bartleby has attended and lived at Boys Private schools. The son of a single mother. She remarried and he got shipped off for the rest of his life, only seeing his mother on the odd occasion, if at all. On his last visit home, he made a few complaints about his school and how it wasn’t really preparing him for life. So they sent him to where girls are. Compassionate, No ?
His wild look and cold demeanor seemed to make him all the more desirable the many fang girls wanderig the halls. His pretty face and petit body didn’t seem to help either. Not to say he didn’t try and make up for that, wearing black and huge honking boots. Trying to look tough he says.
He has a fairly muscular body, is good at sports when he gets the chance to play. The guy has no idea how to deal with the opposite sex and at times can seem mean and sharp tongued. Though, it didn’t take several girls very long before they realized his weakness, Now it’s more like a zoo. He’s often chased and abused by these girls. They made him cross dress once, it was really weird. Their perverse nature continues and Bart is scared of opposing them in the fear that their antics might grow more intense. There’s a third problem and reason the girls bother him so, but he’s not one to go into such detail. Because of this, he’s learned who to trust and who to stick around. The boy has lots of amazing qualities that don’t get the chance to shine through. A world class artist, though he is often chosen to be the subject in Art class by manner of vote. Female skewed. So he mostly paints in his dorm room. Not many have been inside, but the walls are painted with all kinds of amazing works of art. He also happened to be the drummer in a band at his last school. But not many people in this Tokyo high seem to like good Rock and Roll. Tis a pity.
I don’t think it’s robbing the cradle ~ 17
Hmph, I aint homelss ~ Lives Care free in the boys dormitory
Oh yeah, I got style and class! ~ Bartleby’s wish is to become a famous painter. That being said, He wishes to one day move to new York and start his own Gallery. For this goal, he speaks fluent English.
Get that camera out of my face ! ~
I'm not that pretty damnit !

D O R M S B O Y ZIf your living here then congratulations, you can wake up 10 minutes before class starts and still get there on time. Albeit a little dirty. In this place where the seat is always left up you could very well find one of the best friends of your life and enjoy the school like to it's fullest. You buy all your food downstairs from the in dorm Cafeteria. enjoy Players. G I R L ZIf your living here then someones getting stiffed with an 800 dollar phone bill. A place where the seat is always left down and it's all clean and pristine. Not a speck of garbage out of place, lovely meals are cooked often here and there are the occasional panty raid on the girls. Talk about exciting ladies, like you students have other options though, hee hee

 My goodness this was an awful day. Roland had single handedly moved to the one place on the planet that seemed to alienate outright. His mother didn’t want to take so he’s pretty imposing right now, His classmates all make assumptions about him based off his appearance. Narrow minded country kids...and prestigious narrow minded rich folk....and everyone else that seemed to hate him. Not to mention that his hand was throbbing with pain. Although it was completely worth it, Punching that guy was awesome. He went down like a sack of potatoes, although that probably wasn’t going to help his already sterling reputation. From the moment he walked in, By the way he spoke, the way he moved and his nap from the jet lag, they all assumed he was a stoner beach blonde from miami. Now these well bred intelligent children didn’t exactly want to even coexist with such rif raf. But, if that was the way things were panning out, it would have been fine. But they took something very important from him. The AV club.
Since the clubs alumni boasted quite a few famous actors, directors and writers. They got quite a few donations from those alum. But, since they were donations the “intelligent” students found out that they didn’t have to actually produce movies of any sort to pay for their keep. So it’s became a haven for the layabout students. It was honestly sad. Well, suffice to say, Roland was completely regretting the move now. This place was driving him nuts. Plus all the blunders he’d made. The culture shock was really getting to him, not to mention that the previously mentioned lag left him utterly exhausted.
This school was starting to stifle him. The halls closing in, the people all starring. Roland liked to be the center of attention but this feeling was ridiculous. He needed to get some fresh air. Roland brushed through the crowds exiting their classroom, looking for a set of stairs to either take him up or down. Up was what he found, and running is how he traveled. Falling is how he hurt himself and stumbling is how he made his way through the doorway out onto the roof. Gasping for air. Roland rushed to the hand rail, gripping it for dear life as he leaned over looking out over the country side. The wind was bracing and it brought him back to his senses. Roland jumped the banister so he could have a seat over the ledge. Although, to anyone who was up there, It would look like he was about to jump and end his life. Silly onlookers.

The halls were congested with students who were on their way to after school functions or just meeting up with friends. Classes were out for the day and Kokoro could breathe easier. Her days were full of academic and business courses. Most kids took at least a few extracurricular classes, like art, or maybe cooking. However Kokoro was not one of those students. Her father picked her classes for her, and she didn't argue. Although he could not control what she did after classes were out. She no longer carried her briefcase, instead she had gone to her dorm and switched it for her a sleek black case. It housed her violin; she had been playing since she was young thanks to her mother. She made her father believe it was just a hobby; however it was so much more. Music was everything to her; it was the only thing she really seemed to enjoy. Her business classes made her want to sleep. However she was sure she didn't doze off, her grades had to remain high. Her father would not tolerate slacking.
A few people stared at her as she passed, some smiled and greeted her. However most of the greetings were hollow and forced. Kokoro may have been known by everyone; however that did not necessarily make her popular amongst her fellow students. She was a Masuda, daughter of a well known business tycoon. The Masuda family was ruthless when it came to business, weeding out and taking over smaller businesses. Sometimes putting many people out of work in the process. However they didn't seem to have remorse. There were rumors that the Masuda family dabbled in more shady affairs. Although whenever they were investigated, the law came up with no evidence at all to support their suspicions. Well due to her families reputation kids around school either avoided her or tried to gain her favor. Being the friend of a Masuda could make you a powerful figure. Unfortunately to those who tried to be her shadow, Kokoro was aware of the ulterior motives behind their actions. So Kokoro was alone a lot, despite how much she disliked being by herself.
Kokoro pulled a strand of ebony hair out of her face and tucked it behind her ear. She sighed as she rounded the corner. She was heading to the music room, hoping it wasn't occupied. It was quiet and gave her a chance to just play, and write. Koko's hazel eyes narrowed as she came up to the door, only to find it closed. She jiggled the handle to find that it was locked. That was strange the door was always open. Kokoro cursed silently to herself; there was probably a couple in there. People tended to take advantage of the empty room, playing nooky and whatnot. Now where was she going to go, maybe the roof. Well it was worth a shot, there were bound to be people up there. However Kokoro was sure she could find an unoccupied corner up there where she could concentrate. She walked away from the door and headed into the stairwell, taking two steps at a time. She passed by a few students coming down, muttering about the new riff raff. They must have been talking about the new kid from that had transferred from the United States. From what she heard he had already punched someone today. News traveled fast in this school. She reached the top and opened the door, fresh air rushing to meet her.
It was a little cool, but the sun kept her warm enough. Her eyes squinted as they slowly adjusted to the suns glare. When she could finally open her eyes without pain she looked around. There were only a few kids, which was strange. The roof was normally a very popular place to hang out, especially after school was out. That was when Kokoro noticed the blonde kid sitting on the ledge. He was the exchange student that the entire school was buzzing about. Was he the reason why the roof was so deserted? Well she guessed that most kids didn't want to be associated with a regular beach boy from the states. Everything she had heard about him over the course of the entire day...wasn't exactly flattering. She had heard he was a drugged up surfer, and another girl told her he was a complete player. Kokoro realized she was staring, so she quickly looked away. She needed to find a place where she could collect her thoughts.
