Darin sprinted through the forest. He was late. Naturally. Behind him, several thugs streamed after him, trying to get at his tail, apparently. Darin flicked it at one of them, and it sliced cleanly across his neck. The guy fell to the ground so Darin couldn't tell if he was dead. He rolled his eyes and muttered, "Idiot." After a while of pursuit, the thugs gave up and left. At long last, Darin had arrived at the clearing. He yelled the password and strode into the building. Strangely, someone showed up instantaneously and gave him a schedule. He walked back outside and saw a class all gathered around. According to the schedule, he was bound for here. He ran over to the area, and saw people milling around. He noticed, in particular, a Steelix, and walked over to him and said, "What's this all about?" he grinned, and said, "Darin. Nice to meet you."
