"New Dawn."
"Hmmm... that's a nice view." A young man muttered as the scenery pass through the window. The monorail is currently crossing the waters, passing through the breath taking clear waters below as it travel.
But as much as he liked to enjoy the view, this young man cannot clearly enjoy it. Not with the amount eyes currently locked on him as he stands in the middle.
He is the only male in the cabin.
Their destination, IS academy, is an all girls academy to teach young girls how to pilot IS or Infinite Stratos. Infinite Stratos or IS in short are powered exoskeletons capable of great feats in combat and flight with its technological advances. Unfortunately, these exoskeletons can only be used by women in general.
That's why our dear male here is very uncomfortable as the entire cabin filled with girls are curiously watching him. One question is clear on their minds.
Why is there a male in the monorail and why he is wearing IS academy uniform?
As for the mentioned male, he only gave them small smile and kept to himself.
Even he himself don't want to be here but certain circumstances made it impossible for him to escape his fate.
To be a student in the IS academy.
-------------------------------------------------------
"Alright everyone, we have two new students in our class so you'll better behave yourselves." Chifuyu Orimura chastised her students before they go crazy.
Of course being girls and coming from private girl school before then, gossip and exciting events are girls bread and butter. So two new students is a big deal for them.
As for their Instructor, she's pissed beneath her calm exterior.
'Damn, Rabbit. Whatever your planning, you better leave my brother out of it.' Chifuyu thought angrily.
Tabane Shinonono is probably the only person that Chifuyu hates and tolerate at the same time. A total enigma even with how many years the have been friends, Chifuyu can never understand whatever that is running through that rabbit's thoughts. She won't bother if she's the target, she used and knows how to play against Tabane's antics.
But her brother?
The bets are all off. She doesn't know how or why, but her brother managed to activate an IS through sheer dumb luck while trying to get into an entrance exam.
She call foul on that.
Yet, something unforeseen.
Somewhere in Tokyo, in a Tech convention, something similar happened. But unlike her brother's incident, it's the activation of an entire squad of dormant IS units.
Four units activating in synch when th person himself got close enough for inspection, being one of the tourists.
It was unprecedented event and a massive mystery.
How did all four units activate at once with just one person?
----------------------------------------------------------
Ichika Orimura is miserable.
Not only he missed his intended entrance exam just because of a wrong turn, he got caught in a massive misunderstanding in the century!
And now his in an academy full of girls by government orders or else.
All he wanted is just to go in a normal highschool, not in some all girls school. Other boys might see this opportunity as godsend but Ichika can see that this is a devil's scheme. He had seen the ways the girls stare at him and he have a bad feeling about it.
It felt like he was a meat in meat market.
Although, he wasn't alone.
"Uuuuhmm... Hey, my name's Orimura Ichika." He said to the guy beside him as they wait outside the classroom.
The person in question turned their head to Ichika and he can't help but gulp. Golden eyes stared at him, as if they can see through him or inspecting him.
Like a predator stalking it's prey.
"Nice to meet you." They replied before turning their head back to the windows, watching the scenery.
Ichika almost sweatdropped at the nonchalant behavior, he didn't even introduce himself. His head dropped pitifully, looks like he won't even have a male friend here.
"I don't like repeating myself so wait until introductions inside." Ichika turned his head abruptly at him.
"Come in." They suddenly called from the class room, cutting off Ichika before he can speak.
As such, they entered.
----------------------------------------------------------
Two new students.
It was an exciting day indeed for the girls. Rumors are already flying this morning but it seems it will be confirmed today.
Two new male IS pilots.
It was impossible but if word of the mouth is true then there are two males in IS uniform wandering about this morning in the academy. If the rumors are true, then these two males will be in their class.
So when the door opened, the entire class went silent in anticipation as they wait holding their breath.
The first one to enter is definitely a male.
Tall, dark and handsome, with broad shoulders and a soft expression, he is your typical japanese pretty boy. The girls are already gushing at his appearance, especially his shy attitude when he finally noticed every single eyes are on him.
That's when he entered following the first one.
He was shorter. His nationality is also questionable with his unkept curly brown hair and a browner skin tone than your typical japanese. Everyone went quite when his golden eyes swept all over the class.
"Care to introduce yourselves." Instructor Orimura asked.
"Ah, Chifuyu-nee*Thwak!!!* "
Everyone winced except for the other male as Instructor Orimura dispensed one of infamous punches.
"That's Instructor Orimura, Orimura-sensei or Professor Orimura to you, brat." Chifuyu huffed.
"But-" he immediately but his tongue went his sister raises her first, ready for a second round. Not wanting to add more abuse at his head, Ichika retreated.
"Uhhm..." Unfortunately, his thrown out of the pan into the fire.
There's so many girls!!!
"I'mIchikaOrimua,pleasetakecareofme!" He said quickly, giving a perfect bow as his introduction.
But even with his botched introductions, the girls liked his demeanor. His shyness giving him brownie points.
"Your turn." Instructor Orimura turned on the second male.
As such, they merely step forward and began to speak.
"My name's Amuro Ray, please take care of me." He said with a small bow, his voice cold and smooth.
Everyone doesn't know how to react.
By his attitude and appearance alone, some girls can see him as a bad boy.
And yet...
There is something dangerous to him.
Unknown to everyone, the White Devil have successfully infiltrated IS academy without a single hitch.
