The shelves of the library were stacked to the brim with literature from decades of knowledge, their paper covers clouded with a thick layer of soot. For some reason Gabriel Seran found himself in the World History section, right where it met the “How-To” section. His long slender fingers were wrapped tightly around one such book that caught his attention, a book marked with large bold imprinting and a very attentive title. How to turn people against one another, gain supreme power, maintain control, and get some sleep while dealing with them. By: Ryan Koster

Ah, the library A place with complete silence, and where no one makes any sudden movements. It suited Masaru, since all that happened earlier made him tend to not be around people that much. It wasn't that he didn't like company, but some people were just too active and moved around too much for him, which made him sick. That was one of his problems, to say the least... not to mention the cake incident.
"Books are the treasured wealth of the world and the fit inheritance of generations and nations. "
Masaru muttered as he walked along the isles looking for an interesting book, well, one that he hasn't read yet. He found himself looking at a book that he hasnt read before:How to turn people against one another, gain supreme power, maintain control, and get some sleep while dealing with them. By: Ryan Koster. Didnt look like a book to his taste, but he was intrugued by the long name of the book. He then noticed there was a young man moving his hand toward the book. Masaru could have just walked on by but he felt like starting a conversation, after so much time alone reading books.
"That's a very specific book you have there."
Masaru started the conversation this way. He didn't really know how to act around people after so long reading and after the shocks he's been through, but if this person was the kind of guy Masaru would like to get to know, he wouldn't just shrug off the opportunity to meet new friends, or try to test his skills to manipulate someone, if grabbing that book has anything to say about his character.

His hand caught the book up in a slow embrace flipping to where he’d last left off,
Ch 12: How to alienate the strong and bring the masses of the weak to your advantage.
Taking a momentary second to read the section over before he was caught
"That's a very specific book you have there."
The momentary blunder made him jump, only slightly. The young guy that’d just acknowledged him stood there waiting for a reply.
“Yea funny coincidence isn’t it,” a wry smile sat atop Gabriel’s lips.
Ch 2: DON’T GET CAUGHT!
He’d remembered that, for the time being he’d play aloof and naïve to an extent at least.
“Care to take a look? I noticed you eyeing this one up yourself.” He taunted playfully.
Ch 6: If by chance someone sees you in the act find a scapegoat

“Care to take a look? I noticed you eyeing this one up yourself.”
Masaru laughed slightly at this comment.
"I'm fine, thanks for asking though, I'm not the kind of person who would read those kinds of books. A wise man makes his own decisions, an ignorant man follows public opinion. If you feel like reading something like that don't let me stop you, but I would like to look into the 'get some sleep' chapter, I havn't had the time to sleep."
The truth was, Masaru couldn't sleep cause when he closed his eyes, his memories haunted him, which is why he gave up on the idea of blindfolding himself to stop his weird vision.

Crushed, Gabriel took a quick gasp of air after the comment. What gave the guy the right to mock him, what gave him any opportunity to oppose him? The fire that was sparked in Gabriel died off shortly however giving birth to a new feeling that resonated in the back of his head….”let it go” a voice said. Gritting his teeth Gabriel pushed his pride aside obediently obeying his conscious. He set the book aside only to grasp another,
“Hey you look like you need some sugar,” He jested handing his new found companion a cake baking book.
“Go ahead you look a little flushed, spoil yourself.”

suddenly, this dude seemed to burst from anger. Masaru didn't intend to actually insult this dude, but he was kinda used to telling the blunt truth even if it ended up making people dislike him. Masaru quickly started to apologize. "Sorry if I offended you in any way, its just I havn't talked to anyone in a while and don't know how to stop myself from sounding taunting..." Suddenly "Oh, whats thi--AAAUGGH!!!!" Masaru suddenly grasped his head in between his hand, hurling the book away and starts screaming. "CAKE!!!! CAKE MAN!!!! THE HORROR!!!" He starts curling up into the fetal position. "THE CAKE IS A LIE!" Suddenly a librarian walks past and starts putting her pointer finger on her lips saying "Shhhh"

"CAKE!!!! CAKE MAN!!!! THE HORROR!!!" He Ranted out screaming in obvious pain.
What had set him off Gabriel had no idea, He was a nut. His screams echoed throughout the library startling all those whom may be busy at work. At that point he rolled over into the fetal position muttering, "THE CAKE IS A LIE!"
“SHHHHH!” The school librarian made her way to hush the nonsense. “Can’t you see this is a library?! Get out!” She spit
Gabriel was beyond words at this point, clearly pissed off and unable to keep it under wraps. He grabbed the nutcase by the collar of his shirt and ensued to drag him out the front door should he not be halted.
“You hooligan I don’t want to see either of you causing havoc in my library again!” She continued on with her mindless rabble as he continued to drag the oaf off.
“Lady, kindly step off!” That was the last straw he couldn’t take it, he fumed off out the front door moron in his right hand, balled up fist in the other.

Dazed, Masaru is easily dragged out of the room, muttering from time to time. as he was dragged out of the library, Masaru was close enough to this dude to read his movements quite easily. It made him even more sick. Masaru then snapped out of his cake fit and politely took this guys hand away from his collar. He began to brush dust off his clothes and stand next to this dude like nothing happened. Well, nothing did actually happen for him, since the whole memory of the day has been blocked from Masaru's mind.
"What am I doing here... and why were you grabbing my shirt?"
Masaru asked. For some reason, the happenings of the day drained Masaru of any emotion, and now he was but an empty shell, gazing at This guy questioningly.

OOC: You can ignore me in terms of post order. I'll be here, but a bit infrequent.Oh, Wry Halo Thar "What am I doing here... and why were you grabbing my shirt?" "Vy, he's obviously about to rape you, mein gut freund." a German said, smiling lightly, as he passed by, book in hand. Patting his other second-in-command on the shoulder as he walked by non-nonchalantly, he brought up 'Sun Tzu's Art Of War' and buried his nose into it, sitting on a table a bit of a ways off in some estranged corner of the library.OOC: 'Can't afford to introduce Mr. Winklewood for the time being. It'd be far too mentally taxing to switch between accounts constantly. You do not have to interact with "Unfettered".

"What am I doing here... and why were you grabbing my shirt?"
The guy he’d dragged out looked totally out of it, he hadn’t even realized what he’d just been doing. Suddenly a familiar voice approached the pair.
"Vy, he's obviously about to rape you, mein gut freund." Said the German with the eyepatch.
Gabriel turned to unexpectantly see Unfettered, leader of the militia standing but a few feet from him and closing intent on heading towards the library.
Gabriel had to grin at his sick humor, though he was worried about how the boy he’d just released would react to the joke.

RAPE!?!?
Masaru thought he was joking, but then he saw this dude standing there grinning at him.... Somethings not right here... Masaru was screaming on the inside but he felt too mentally taxed already to freak out so he just stood there, looking kinda freaked out.
"Thats not really what you were trying to do... was it?..."
Masaru studied this dude, ready to fight or flee depending on what happens. already beginning to see the overlapping after(or before)-images appear on this dude.

"Oh Hai" "Thats not really what you were trying to do... was it?..." "...Maybe vith a rake---vat ze hell did you two do back zer?" the German said, book no longer in hand, as he stepped out to rejoin them. He added the 'rake' part, simply for the impossibility of it---and how potentially painful it would be upon success.
However, he was in a relatively cheery mood, hurting chest and 'dying a little on the inside' feelings aside, in the aftermath of the Correctional Facility incident."Vassup?"

"Thats not really what you were trying to do... was it?..." The youth Gabriel’d had by the collar had reacted, stunned.
Gabriel turned with a somewhat humored look on his face, he obviously had no intention of hurting the kid, merely just get him to shut up, but playing with his head certainly had its momentary advantages.
"...Maybe vith a rake---vat ze hell did you two do back zer?" The grin on his face broke into a cheery laugh, Gabriel fought to contain it but it was ridiculously funny.
"Vassup?" Unfetterd notioned as his approach neared. Gabriel had yet to see the great leader of the militia in such an informal context and was somewhat perplexed on how he should react. The Correctional Facility incident was finished, what did that make them? Friends? Acquaintances? Enemies? Where to go from here was tinkering with his head. Just like Gabriel always four steps ahead and no eyes on the present. His grin faded to a calm smirk
“Just getting to meet new people,” Grinning as he gave the other boy a pat on the shoulder. “Maybe I’ll get to the rape a bit later.” Gabriel added with a sneer

At these several comments, Masaru realized that these people were making fun of him. Well, that wasn't much of a problem for Masaru, but he didn't get the rape jokes that much, and didn't like them, but it was to his experience that making enemies just from a few rude comments was not the best way to go. Maybe this dude is just a good Samaritan who picked Masaru up after he fell and hit his head, that would make sense since Masaru had no idea what happened this day. Might as well put on the calm aura Masaru used to do before the... incident... at the correctional facility.
"Ah... well... I'm going to believe you guys are just... joking around? I remember you..."
Masaru looks at the man with the eyepatch.
"You were planning on a student uprising or something of the sort, yes?"
Masaru worked hard on keeping the calm aura, which he would have to work on soon. He kind of snapped back and foreth from slightly cheery face to blank stares. He will definately have to start working on this...
