I know I said I'd wait... but aha. xP
L shifted uncomfortably in his chair, far in the back of the classroom. He was craving sweets, and all these people were starting to make him nervous. Watari had promised he wouldn't be here for long, that it was a class he had to be there for because the new students would be coming in, and the best way to get a feel for them was to be there when they first started interacting with others. The teacher had strict instructions to call him Ryu around the children, and none of the other students had even bothered to notice him, all chatting amoungst themselves and waiting for the first years.
The detective however was talking to no one, he was there on business, which was what he was constantly repeating over and over in his mind to keep from going crazy without a comfortable seat to crouch in, or sweets to occupy his attention. He wasn't even working on a case at this point in time, meaning that there was nothing for him to ponder, and absolutely no direction for all of his smarts to work in. It was boring.
He was bored.
Plain and simple.
The sliding door slide open, making him shift in his seat and lean forward some, balencing himself by pressing his fingertips into the desk before him, the denim of his pants rubbing against his white cotton sleeves. Here they were.
His candidates.
There were several possabilities for him to be thinking about, but at this point in time, he wasn't focusing on his successors. That was Roger's job, to narrow them down to a select few he would start to monitor. No...
He was here to find agents, if that was the best term for them. People with special skills that he could shape and mold to work in various situations for him....
Pulling up information locked deep in his brain, he bit his thumbnail, wide eyes trained intensely on the door.
Mail Jeevas: AKA Matt; Computer technician with mass amounts of loyalty. Best friends with one of his plausable successors, Miheal Kheel: AKA Mello.
And
Momo Lyoko: AKA Loki; Actor, theif, perfect for spy business. No friends as of yet, nor did she seem to want any friends. Trouble maker, star of the drama club, not particularly smart nor loyal... pure skills, not particularly smart.
It was an odd pair to be looking at, but if they had what he could use now, he couldn't even calculate the possabilities for the work they could do after three to four years of high level classes and special training.
Actually, he could calculate it...
And he liked his odds. [/color]

{[HOMG YOU STARTED WITHOUT MEH!]}
Momo tilted her head up, scanning the faces in the room as she entered. Her hand paused on the door frame, rough wood scratching her palm. Pulling away roughly, she dug in her pocket for a lace glove, which she then jammed her hand into, scowling. Being waved to the front of the classroom she stood beside some other students, including a blonde and a red head who was a few inches taller then her. Glaring at no one in particular, she scuffed her foot on the floor and waiting for her turn to introduce herself. Bowwing quickly and abruptly, she spoke. "Yo. Name's Loki, stay away from me and there won't be any trouble."
She wasn't joking. If people stayed away from her, she couldn't steal there things, and it would be much easier to keep the teachers from yelling at her yet again. Lashing out quickly and without being noticed, she delved into the red head's pocket, pulling out his gameboy with out so much as rustling his clothing, let alone having given him the time to notice her quick finger work. Once the introductions were done, she'd probably give it back, but until then, she'd simply shove it into her school bag. [/color]

Matt was internally dying inside without his Game-Boy. The "guards" stationed outside the building made him hand it over in case "there was tracking equipment" in it. He was almost shaking with the thought of people playing his precious Game-Boy. He'd have to make sure nothing was changed with it when he got it back. He tried to take his mind off of his temporary loss and looked around the room. Nothing particularly interested him, but there was this girl that was standing next to him. She kept glaring at whatever her eyes laid upon at the time. She just happened to glance at him. Her gaze was terrifying.

L watched with curiousity, leaning forward even more and tilting his head so far to the side he looked a touch like an owl. It was almost amusing how quickly Loki's hands were dipping into other's pockets, taking and redistributing people's possessions without them realizing that she had even moved, but what was even better was the fact that every time she glanced at Mail, he leaned away with a frightened look.
So, the computer tech was scared of the klepto... how would be manage to get them to work together? well, that part would be easy, it was the "peacefully" part he could foresee a problem handling. Tapping his thumb nail against his lip, he started to observe Loki more. Matt would most likely be an open close case, as far as what it took to get in his good graces. Actually, he could list a few desirable traits now; Liked games, didn't talk as much as most people, liked goggles, loved motorcycles and sports cars, new something about computers, and could hold their own in a gun fight to name a few.
Shaking his head some, he focused his thoughts yet again, narrowing his eyes as he looked to the young girl glaring everywhere. She didn't want to be in class, he could tell that much. Most likely she could learn much better on her own, like he could, but there was no telling with that. Everything about her was a mystery. Well, the past wasn't, her bank records with all eight digits weren't, even her room and wardrobe were know down to the last saftey pin.....
But her mind....
That was the only unchartered area in this classroom.
Stretching out a leg, L pushed his chair out from under himself, pulling his long and thin limbs to a standing position, slouched over himself like the weight of the world rested on his shoulders. He had observed their introductions, that was good enough he supposed.
Ten percent chance that more would be revealed later on in the class, but cameras could make up for him lack of attendance.
He froze as the teacher spoke, "Mr. Ryu, unless you have something to say, please sit back down at your desk!"
The world famous detective had just been repremanded. In fact, he had been yelled at, a piece of chalk bounced off his forehead, and a glare sent to burn a hole through his corneas. Flexing his jaw, L tilted his head to the side, "Sorry sir, I just wanted to stretch my legs, my calf was cramping." he lied, curling and uncurling his toes to keep his mind detached and cool. Stretching a leg behind him, he pulled his seat forward again, climbing back onto it with a gracfulness that resembled a spider. Creepy, jerky, but graceful. Ready to pounce on the first fly within range.
Sighing, he bit his thumbnail a bit harder then need be, chewing to keep his focus. He had no one to be mad at but himself, after all he had been the one to suggest seeing the new children in person, not to mention having come up with his false history and new persona himself.
He might as well take the time to be a kid for the next hour of class. It'd certainly give Watari chuckles later.

Loki took a hesitant rock back, prepared to run as the man stood. Her instincts were warning her that he was strange, foreign to her natural ideals, and possibly dangerous, if not physically, then mentally. Shaking her head to clear the thoughts, she pulled out Matt's gameboy, dangling it in front of his face. "Missing something, gamer-chan? I snitched it when the guard wasn't looking." She teased, holding it in such a way that she could snitch it right back if he tried to grab for it.
"I'll give it to you free of charge, and with the game in it... if you do one thing for me, fire crotch." She whispered, making sure that the teacher was taking attendance and unable to hear them. "Well? Do we have a deal?"
She lashed out, jabbing a finger into his sides just as a girl dropped her pencil box, making a bang that would hide any sound this loser made. He had been the one she had watched on the computer the other day, which meant that he could probably tell her a few things. [/color]

Seeing his precious Game-Boy dangling from the girls fingers, Matt instantly knew that he must have it back. Looking around to make sure that no one was looking, he said to the girl, "Fine, what do you want, you little pip squeak?" The whole time, he never took his eyes off the Game-Boy, as the girl contemplated him for a moment. As she was about to reply, a board eraser hit her in the head. "I'll be taking that, Miss Loki." the teacher said as he came over to take Matt's most precious item. Matt's eye's teared a little when he saw the teacher put in a draw and continue to take attendance.

Loki rubbed the back of her head. "Ow!" she complained, gritting her teeth together. Looking back to Matt, she rubbed her hands together. "I want you to figure out who the hell that boy is in the back row. The one who looks like an owl on heroin."
With that said, she ducked down quickly, out of sight and passed behind the red head, resisting the urge to pinch his ass as she laid down, slipping under the desk from behind. Pushing herself back against the wooden planks of the desk, she pulled a bobby pin out of her hair, slide a safety pin from the inseam of her pant leg, and unhooked a paperclip from the bottom of her braid. Using her tongue to manipulate the paper clip, she unlatched the safety pin, jamming the sharp point into the crack where panel met panel. Drawing it along the surface, she freed the glue that keep the bottom of the drawer in tact, lowering it down slowly so that all of contents remained balanced. That's when it happened.
She wavered just enough that the pens and pencils began to roll. Over reacting, she thrust her right arm up too far, letting a book slide off and slam to the floor. The bang made the teacher freeze, turning some to bend down and look. Instinct took over and Loki lashed out with her legs, scissoring them so that she could slam his ankles together with her shin and pull him to the floor. He landed with a thump, the breath rushing from his body as he connected with the tiles. Shoving the drawer back into place, she jammed the bobby pin into one of the sides and the paper clip into the other, using the metal prongs to keep the drawer back where it belonged.
Dashing out, she tossed the gameboy into the air, caught it easily, grabbed Matt's wrist and dragged him from the room "Come on! Do you want to get in trouble, cause I can tell him you told me to get it back!" She hissed at him, slamming the door shut and racing down the hall with him in tow. [/color]

"Please don't rape me!" Matt yelled as Loki slammed the door into the teachers face and dragged him down the hall, to the main exit. Panting they looked at each other,, then they burst out laughing. Matt took his goggles off for a second to wipe his eye's from the tears that the laughter caused. Looking around, the decided to hide out in the computer lab and lock the door behind them. Matt jumped into a seat in front of the best computer he could find and began to type away at the keyboard, searching the web for anything on the "owl on heroine".

Sliding into a seat beside the boy, she turned on her own computer with a quick key command, not bothering to bend down to hit the power button. "So, Fire Crotch, what's your name?" she asked, listening to the foot steps in the outside hall half heartedly, more intent on connecting to the internet. [/color]

"Matt," he said, not taking his eyes off the screen. He didn't understand why the girl was getting on the internet, this was his playground. After about five minutes, he sighed and leaned back in the chair. "Well, all I could get on the heroine addict owl is that he;s very elusive." He glanced over at the girl as she clicked away at some internet links, looking at fashion or lock picking tools he assumed.

"Mhmm... I kinda figured that. But it's strange, don't you think? I mean, if he was just a regular student, there would be information on him somewhere.... what about Roger's computer? Could you get into that from here?" She looked to him with a questioning look before remembering her manners. "Oh, my name's Momo, but everyone calls me Loki." She flashed him a smile that looked more like a smirk and flicked the end of his nose lightly. Turning her screen to him, she flashed a bank account screen. "Looks like Whammy's Place has been having a lot of anoymous donations... all with the same IP. Every time I try to find it though, it doesn't work. Could you? My skills are minimal, I just remember text book stuff." [/color]

"OK, I'll see where those donations come from," Matt sighed as he went back to work. After a few minutes of trying, Matt hit the computer. "The hell is wrong with this piece of shit? I can't get through." He glanced at Loki, "Sorry, I tried my best, and that's saying something." Leaning back again, Matt sighed, "Just who the hell is this 'Ryu" guy anyways?"

"That's what I want to know...." she said with narrowed eyes, leaning back in her chair. Reaching out some, she nudged Matt's hand. "So, do you have any friends here?" she inquired, feeling the sudden urge to know him better. She was going against her better judgement, getting to know this kid, but she couldn't quite help it right now. They were alone in a locked room, strangers, frusterated over the same thing.... so twenty questions it was.
