"Humph," Ryu said from within Chase. "Why the hell are we in here? I don't like this place already,". Chase ignored the plead from his pessimistic counter part as he wondered the gallantry of the ballroom that stood before him. The ballroom was a magnificent golden color with matching tile coloring. The ballroom itself was the size of a basketball stadium and it was very handsome.
"Wh-Whoa. I can see my reflection," Chase cried out, peering into one of the tiles. Chase had got dressed in a black tuxedo he received from his father before his departure. Hair uncombed and dress shirt untucked, Chase felt relaxed as he crept in the room. A pianist was playing an on symphony from a composer Chase was unfamiliar with yet he heard of the piece.
"Good evening to you sir," said the pianist casually, as she played.
"H-hi," replied Chase, nervously. Glancing around the ballroom, Chase recognized a couple of his peers conversing with one another. 'Hmm, I should make myself formally acquainted with them,' Chase thought as he approached them when someone tapped his shoulder...

"Hi" Midori said with that sweet smile of hers. "I don't believe I've met you before."

Shyly, Chase turned around. Blushing, Chase said, "I know you from somewhere. I can't remember though. You are the half dragon girl right?".
Chase looked around the ballroom. He noticed someone eying him in a remarkably suspicious manner. 'Humph, what's THAT guy's problem?' said Ryu from within Chase's thoughts.
'I don't know. But his name is Aaric I believe. He's a real stud I hear,' Chase replied to the haughty Ryu. ' Chase and Midori had one of those awkward moments of silence. In an attempt to break the silence, Chase asked a vague yet acceptable question, "So, how is life? How is school for you?"

During their aquard silence, something remastered in her mind. "Umm...Fine...But...Ummm....Do i know you?" You seem familiar.." Midori was unaware that Aaric was watching her ((that's power playing...Aaric wasn't there to begin with.)) She could swear she knew him from somewhere, she just couldn't clearly remember.

"I don't know who this chick is but she ain't so bad," Ryu yelled in Chase's mind. "Be quiet," Chase replied aloud. 'Oops, I bet she thinks I'm crazy' Chase thought, suddenly blushing a hot scarlet. "I-I-I can't remember who you are, but I'm most certain that you're a half breed, correct? My name is Chase Yamasaki, I'ma new around here. I've transfered from a school in Korea just to come here. I hear this school is top notch. How is it here?".
"Dammit, don't blow this moment you loser," proclaimed the over ecstatic Ryu. "Keep it up, and I'll come out. After all, it's ME, Midori remembers. We've had some....ties in the past."
Chase proceeded in a gesture asking for Midori's hand. "It is a tradition where I'm from to dance with the first person I meet,"

Walking silently over to them, Aaric cleared his throat and said, "Excuse me, dear sir. But I would like to introduce myself. I am Aaric Brant, Instructor of General Defense. Might I ask your name?" he said, bowing low to him and smiling at him kindly as he came up. His hand subtly brushed against Midori's as a silent greeting.

Midori smiled at Aaric. Not sure why he had come up in the first place.. That’s just weird…. she thought. Maybe he’ll dance with me!! Midori got a bit excited at the thought

"Hmm, now things get a little more interesting," Ryu said, chuckling at the confused Chase. "Watch out kid, this guy is a teacher, and a powerful one at that. I remember Aaric from Takeshi High. He's one of the more popular elves. Be weary of him, he's just as skilled as you with swordmanship,".
A little disfranchised, Chase tried to greet this man cautiously, thinking about what to say before he said it.
"Oh. Good day to you monsieur," Chase started. "My name is Chase Yamasaki. I just transfered here and I'm just......getting acquainted with my new surroundings,".
"Smooth thinking Casanova," Ryu said sarcastically, just dying to come out of Chase to do what he does best; causing nothing but damage and mayhem. Chase simply replied 'Make silence Ryu so I can think. This guy intimidates me but somehow, I don't feel threatened with him in my presence.'
"So, Midori, this is your teacher I assume?" Chase managed to say, feeling a little discouraged by the appearance of this man. "Aaric-san, I hope for the best this school year, and I look forward to listening to your words of knowledge," Chase mustered, kowtowing in the process.

Aaric had been watching Chase with an intent look in his eyes though his expression remained friendly and courteous. "Why thank you, I look forward to seeing you in my class." he said, bowing again though this time not so low. Then he gently put forth a hand and touched Chase's arm. "May we speak in private?" he asked, still with the same expression.

Nervous, Chase wasn't sure what to do. 'Humph, let me take over Chase. I know what to do,' Ryu said to Chase as the two changed bodies. The new occupant in front of Midori and Aaric was slightly different then the body in front of the two. (The diminutive difference was the fact that Ryu's hair changed from brownish, to a more maroon color over an extended time period).
"Sure, why not," Ryu said to the man he saw, not as his superior, but someone below him. "Kohai", that's what Ryu called people he believed were inferior to him. 'Ryu, don't do anything stupid like you always do ok? I don't want my cover to be blown already because of your haughty attitude' forewarned Chase.
The two pardoned themselves from Midori's presence...

When they were far enough from Midori, he stopped them and turned to regard 'Chase'. "Tell me if you will, Sir Dragon, just how long have you known of your... counterpart?" he asked, his tone still kind as he spoke. He spoke low so no one else would hear and get suspicious. And his body language suggested nothing but comraderie.

"Humph fool. Don't you see? I'm the one stuck in this body. I am the ancestor of Chase. Chase has known of me since birth, when I my sould was first placed in him to contain my power," Ryu replied thingy-heartedly (thingyily). "But I'm not here to make enemies," the old dragon warrior proclaimed. "I'm merely here to support Chase in his conquest to inherit the truth of his past and for him to fulfill the prophecy of Kouhama".
Ryu and Aaric were now by a finely designed window towards the back of the ballroom. Staring out the window, Ryu spotted a handsome couple in the garden outside.
"So anyway," Ryu started, "here's a bit of information you may or may not know. As co-head dragon of all realms on this planet, if you see any dragon's in distress, let me know. It is my duty to assist him or her to the best of my abilities," stated Ryu, showing no signs of harm, though a firm tone in his voice. "Understood? For now I must leave this material world and go back in the spirit realm of Chase's soul. Heed this, when I pass back over to Chase he won't remember what happened from the point we switched, though I can recognize and remember everthing. On that note, act as if nothing has happened. I don't want to get him mixed up into something like this."
Ryu took a step back from handsome six foot man students called "teacher" as he prepared for switch process. "Before I go back in, do you have any questions Aaric-kohai?"

He listened to everything intently to make sure he remembered everything. Nodding to his question he said, "Yes Sir Dragon I have two. What is this prophecy of Kouhama that you spoke of? Also, how do you know Midori?" Aaric looked out the window as well, his eyes on the clouds.

Midori let them leave, slightly taken aback by the hair colors change. there's something about him..i just can't put my finger on it...i know him but...from where...and he knew i was a Dragon.....And Aaric didn't want to dance with me.... Midori went and sat down, and grabed a drink, a bit depressed

Ryu pondered the two questions bestowed upon him. He replied "Well, the prophecy of Kouhama more or less is the Armageddon for our world, Kouhama. Chase must hone his skills here and hopefully he can save our world from unidentified threats that can result in the extinction of the people of Kouhama. Who exactly are these people you may wonder? Dragons, wizards and shamans. All of them work together to form a sense of equality amongst themselves (I'd settle this problem myself but, I'm but a spirit within this boy's body and he doesn't have even a quarter of the mana capacity I have). As for how I know Midori, I'm familiar with her parents. I know everything about dragons, no matter the realm. I can't be a shamanic dragon without that simple knowledge,". Ryu paused. "Will that be all.....Aaric? One more thing, keep an eye on young Chase and his progression, I'll "check" on your status every now and then".
