Description
body div#devskin0 hr { }
It was his first day at a new university, and he had no idea where he was going. This whole complex was alien to him as he read the map they had given him and given them brief directions of where their first classes would be held. He Clung onto his books as a few more new comers rushed past him and almost knocked them out of his hands. His first class was with a Miss Kim for resistant and he had no idea where he was going, but he carried on walking though feeling a bit panicked.
------------
He finally made it to the classroom though and just in time for class to start. The teacher walked into the room a few moments later, she had medium length brown hair, brown eyes and black glasses that rested on top of her head. She seemed alright he thought to himself as he sat down on his own on the third to last row and second in from the right. She called the register while he conveyed his surroundings, the room looked like a normal university study hall, desks and seats placed in a curve around a large white board at the front behind the teachers desk. His heart raced from behind his silk shirt and pale body, he had never been to a university before and was scared of what the others would think of him.
He thought he looked alright when he had left in the morning, he wore a grey silk shirt with blue bands across the chest, Black skinny jeans and his ever changing nerd glasses. He always liked to have a different pair for every other day, but today it was just the basic black pair, the first ones he got and his lucky charm. His hair was combed back but he had let it fall loose instead of scraping it back so far he looked like one of them geeks in the films, but his fringe had a few strands falling over his forehead. He didn't mind the look actually, he would try to make it look like this everyday. The teachers kind voice broke him from his trance of thought.
"Blue Xephos?" she shouted, at first he didn't know what to do but then as he was about to answer her the door opened to the left of the teachers desk. A girl walked though the door looking quiet sheepish, but in a cool and relaxed fashion, like she didn't really care that she was late. "And our first late newcomer." the teacher said, her voice kept kind but had a disappointed ring to it. "I take it your Xevphera?" the girl tilted her head as if to say yes then walked into the classroom closing the door behind her. Xephos recognised her as an elf, though her ears were only slightly pointed at the tips and had two hoop piercings in the right and a thin tunnel like thing on the left. "Well I understand, it does take a while to find yourself around here, just try to be on time now that you know where you are going ok? It doesn't set a very good first 'kimpression' as I like to call it" the elf did a small smile at the teacher before walking over to find a seat.
Xephos thought about asking her to come and sit next to him, but decided against it as he looked into her bright blue eyes. He couldn't ask her, what if she said no? Plus his act of trying to make friends with her might attract the attention of the 'Jocks' that sat at the back of the room, a muscular ginger who wore a very small black tank top and baggy grey jeans. Next to the ginger (who seemed to be the lead jock) was a red headed girl, she wore her hair in a high ponytail and had two purple bands tattooed across her cheek. She wore the jocks rugby jacket, which was obviously too big for her and underneath was a skimpy black tank top and blue denim shorts. Surrounding them were four others, two girls and two boys. Xephos didn't care to look for too long, he didn't want to draw their attention to him.
When he looked back around he noticed the girl and avoided her eyes, her bright blue eyes and looked down at his desk as not to draw attention to himself and the fact that he was sat alone. The girl walked next to him, and much to his surprise she picked the seat to the left of him and next to the wall and sat down. He looked to her and she looked to him, blushing he turned his head towards the front as fast as he could, trying to control the redness that was seeping into his cheeks. Had someone actually come to him to be friends instead of the other way round?!
------------
Throughout the rest of the lesson he glanced over to see what she was doing, each time she didn't really seem interested in what the teacher was saying, instead she mostly made her own mark on the table she had now claimed as her own. She sat with her legs up to her chest and her back to the wall, her head was rested on her left hand, though she often switched which hand she was drawing with, ambidextrous? Her short, brown, choppy hair was ruffled up under her hand but returned to the same position it had started in when she lifted her head. Whenever he looked over the small doodle she had drawn on the surface of the light wood had sprawled across it even more. It included loads of different pictures and characters, including an enderdragon that shot fire out of its large and silently screaming mouth, to a squid that seemed to be dreaming about, a potato?! Xephos didn't really understand any of it, but always had to turn around back tot he front before having a good enough chance to see everything. He didn't want her to think he was a weirdo who looked at other people and their ways of expressing themselves. One thing was for certain though, she was a very talented sketcher.
The lesson finished and he quickly made his way to his next one after bumping into the girl. She didn't seem to mind and just shrugged at him before collecting her books and walking out of the room. People noticed this however and threw bits of paper at his back and head. He ignored them and their silly insults, all he had done was accidently nudge her, it wasn't anything to laugh about for too long.
The next class's teacher walked into the room, he taught architecture and was quiet dashing. His stubble was well kept around his mouth and the top of his lip and his hair was slightly wavy as it curled slightly onto his face. On his nose he wore a pair of thin modern glasses and he just wore a white shirt and thin black suit trousers. His name was 'Mr.Sjin' it suited him. Xephos sat in the same seat as he had done in the previous class and everyone else had obviously had the same idea. At the back sat the jocks, at the front he rest of the class and in the middle him and the elf, who sat next to him. The class wasn't very large, about ten people sat at the front, that made 18 in total, the smallest class of Yogcademy.
He only really remembered five of the people who sat at the front. Two seemed to be brothers, one wearing a purple leather jacket and a black fashionable scarf around his neck and bottom of his chin, his eyes seemed to glow a strange purple/pinkey colour, his brother wore a white leather jacket and grey jeans, his eyes were teal coloured. They laughed a lot, mostly at the girls who seemed to be their friends. The two girls were quiet attractive, one had red/blonde hair that came down a little lower than her shoulders and was slightly waved. She wore a deep blue top with a picture of an owl on it and an owl hat on top of her head. The other had straight black hair and slightly greyish skin, her outfit was a very revealing 'school girl' look, she wore a short black flowwy skirt that didn't really come down to far and a white polo shirt with the sleeves rolled up to her shoulders. They were both turned and talking to the brothers behind them, the teacher didn't seem to mind and was pretty relaxed about everything as long as they listened to most of the things he said.
The two brothers were laughing at the girls because they were eying up the teacher and giggling to each other and whispering in each others ears. The brothers mimicked this as rediculacly as they could and this made Xephos smile, he didn't really get on with his brother and they had drifted apart since they were younger and always together. The last one her remembered seemed a bit like a fifth wheel to the group but was still involved by them as much as he could be. He wore narrow lime green glasses on his nose and his black hair almost covered his eyes, not in an 'emo' haircut way, but more of a Justin Bieber mixed with professor Snape from the Harry Potter series. Xephos smiled again at this image before taking an interest in what the teacher was saying about layout of rooms and the space needed for different rooms etc. He quiet liked architecture, though wasn't very good at it.
Half way through the lesson he felt a small pat on the table in front of him, he looked down to see a note folded very neatly. He looked around him and then looked to the elf who smiled a little and looked back to her new drawing on her desk. Xephos smiled back and unfolded the note. He smile spread more as he read the simple but beautifully written word that was on the small piece of paper in his hands.
'HI'

if anyone reads this and doesn't know what the following things are/mean its probably because your from a different country to me or something like that, also the whole thing about what universities look like, i'm not sure if they actually do :')
resistant - resistant materials, the name for woodwork/engineering in my school, the two subjects are mixed together and are named this, i'm not quiet sure why :S
Kimpressions - if you watch the yogscast on YouTube you may know that they have a new member yogscast Kim, some of her videos are named 'Kimpressions' and I thought it might be quiet a good pun to use in this instance
study hall - this is something i'm not too bout but iv always heard about them in American films, me being British I wasn't quiet sure if I got the meaning of it quiet right i' sure someone will correct me if I was wrong.
Honeydew's persona - I thought it would be kinda funny to make simon's character a jock in duncans parallel Yogiverses series because one he was a dwarf and two he often bullied lewis a bit, but in a school case scenario being a jock seemed to fit in them aspects.
Zoeya's persona - I took the inspiration for her character by her old minecraft skin and im not sure why I paired her up with Simon, it just seemed a bit weird and different and seemed to fit.
Xephos being on his own - I decided to make Xephos not know anyone in this series purely because of the fact that hes an alien in the main series, this made it fit his character to be isolated from the others and feel quiet alien in this new environment.
dreaming potatoe squid - a reference to the yogscasts xbox minecraft series when simon says about the squid wanting to be a potatoe when it grew up, this has become a small meme between yognauts now and I decided to link the reference with this story.
Mr.Sjin - I know Sjins real name is paul and I decided (after much thought) to name his character mr sjin, his first name being paul like irl, his appearance is that described in duncans parallel Yogiverses series for those who are wondering.
Duncan and Rythian - the brothers who were sat at the front, I wanted to link these two together as brothers seen as they have a grudge against each other in my main series because of the war, secretely (and without the two knowing) I like to think that they are brothers, but that's just my opinion
Lomadia and Sips - i wanted to link these two in somewhere and because the bropthers were laughing at sips in my other story i decided to make them all friends to try and make a bit of sence out of it, sips is a girl in this series and i thought that with just saying that he had black hair wasn't really going to make people get that link so i decided to add the part about her having grey skin. Lomadia obviously still loves owls, this also helped to identify her character better than her hair colour.
Nilesy - i forgot to mention that he had a Scottish accent, but nilesy's persona was the 'fifth wheel' to the group, i wasn't too sure about this part but decided to eave it in anyway, poefully people would have been able to guess that it was him by his glasses and hair, also the reference about him looking like snape from harry potter.
Xephos's brother - i wanted to add him into this story (though in this one he doesn't try to destroy the world) but keep the part about him and Xephos not really talking anymore but being close when they were younger.
the elf - this is Xevphera, she is a character i created for the main shadow of Israphel series ages ago! i based her on me irl and made some of her characteristics the same (i.e. her being ambidexterouse and awkward around people - why she passes the note to brake the ice with Xephos) im not too sure why Xephos likes her, if i met an elf version of myself i wouldn't really want to be around me :/
hope this helped to show how i thought of this stuff and explained a little bit more about the elf character, let me know what you think (sorry if iv just rambled all this stuff at you for no reason because u already know what it means, but i wanted to be sure ) hope you enjoy x
