-==Chapter 3: Dawn of a Hero, Part 3==-
"I hope that you all will make lots of friends, enjoy your time here, and maybe even learn a few new things. My name is Kazuki Akaro. The fact that this is happening here, is a very big honour to me. You will be learning about different cultures this week as well, and this will run all the way until next Saturday, though the last day is more of a getting ready to go home day unfortunately." Kazuki started, and breathed in, before continuing.
"I'm sure it won't take that long to get used to the school's layout. And as I'm sure many of you are wondering, where will you sleep? There is a group of multi-floor apartments a little while from here, and they've agreed to somehow house the students. And any they can't take in can be housed in the school somewhere, somehow." Kazuki finished, and stopped to take a breath for a second.
Kaze was watching with interest, as he had had a few questions, one of them being what the principal had just mentioned. He was also wondering if this was all that the principal was going to say, and kept watching and listening.
While Kazuki had been stopping, the two mysterious guys started talking quietly to each other again.
"I don't think there'll be anything more important. I'm outta here." Said the taller guy, as the other guy looked from Kazuki to the other guy, shook his head, and then followed the taller guys out through the secret door.
Kazuki sighed, and then continued his speech.
"Alright. Now, since you're all gonna be here for a while, I'd like you all to take these devices." Kazuki said, as the desks set up in front of all the students opened up to reveal a sleek high tech device, with interchangeable plating.
"These are called the Personal Data Holders, or PDHs for short." Kazuki explained, and went through all the features.
"It has a touch screen, and can fit in your pocket too." Kazuki added, and sighed again.
"Also, be careful all of you. That is all." Kazuki said, as he made his way off the stage, leaving the students to admire the Personal Data Holders.
"Whoa..." Kaze said, stunned at the device, and quickly flipped through the options in awe, and saw an option to save the IDs of other PDHs.
Hmm... Worth a try. Kaze thought, and turned to Sonia.
"Hey, I found this option to seemingly save the IDs of other PDHs, but I'm not quite sure what it means... Wanna try it?" Kaze asked, and she nodded, and looked at the instructions, which said to put the two onto the tab, and press the 'Sync' button at the exact same time. Apparently if both Sync buttons were pressed at the same time within close distance, it would register the two PDHs. A loading bar then appeared and after it completed, a help article was opened on both PDHs, and Kaze read it out loud.
"'The Personal Data Holder has a built in feature to register other PDHs into itself. To do so, a person must be close to another PDH holder, and both have the registration tab open on your PDH. Then, at around the same time, you must press the Sync button on it together, which will register the two devices. You can also register it from afar by exchanging the IDs, but if you're close by, this is the fastest way. After that, you can easily contact the PDH holders you have registered by touching the name of the PDH, and selecting the method of contacting you want to use. More will be added as discovered, or made.' So, it seems like we can edit the name of our PDHs..." Kaze said, and flipped through the options, finding the name change option, and registered it as Blademan. Then, Sonia and Kaze sent a few test messages back and forth to try and get the hang of it, though the layout was pretty simple to learn. However, after the fourth message, the PDH automatically went to the registration screen, and somehow registered a 'Akuzki'.
"... What's this all about?" Kaze wondered out loud, staring at the new registered PDH. However, he noticed that the time was 6:30, and got up.
"I think it might be just about time to leave." Kaze said, as Sonia nodded, and Kaze grabbed his bags and headed out of the school.
Once they were outside, Kaze looked around, and saw the apartments, and ran over to them, Sonia following behind, and walked through the doors and up to the receptionist's counter.
"Hello. I'm Kaze Hikari... Do I have a room here? I'm just wondering." Kaze asked, and the receptionist looked up the room, and nodded, handing him the key, as Sonia then went next. Kaze however, didn't wait for her, and ran off in search of his room first, and found it after a while, and opened it to see Sakeo sitting in a chair, who looked up as Kaze walked in.
"Oh, hello there." Sakeo said, as Kaze nodded to him. The door then opened a few minutes later, and Kaze blinked as he saw who it was.
"Oh, that's weird. This is the room that I've got..." Sonia said, looking from the room number to the two in the room already, as Sakeo raised his eyebrows.
"Hello, and who are you?" Sakeo asked, as Sonia introduced herself. There wasn't much talking, but the next minute, the door opened again, and the other girl from that morning, Kali, walked in.
"Lemme guess, you've got this room too?" Kaze asked, as Kali nodded, otherwise giving Kaze the cold shoulder through the rest of that evening. Kaze and Sonia talked for a little bit, but then the group all chose their own beds, and went to sleep...
