An echo of crumbling debris spread through the hall. Someone was evidently present just outside the art room and was intensifying the sound by every step that someone made. In a moment’s notice a figure of a man placed himself by the doorway. His body hidden behind a hooded cape and shadows cast darkness upon his face. His gaze seethed through to identify presence of two individuals before him.
~ So it seem that even in these dire times someone shall appreciate art ~ [/i]
There was little information to cast light on the identity of the man, to some even none. However Shugo was the only one capable of interpreting the man’s voice if he would dig a little in his memories.
~ However I am not exactly sure that smashing it will satisfy recreational purposes. ~ [/i]
The man made a couple of careful steps deeper into the room avoiding any rubble on the way.

Constantine...
To know the reason why I hate Constantine we have to flash back a little bit. Back to New York. Almost five years ago. I had just come back from my life changing walk around the world. Yes it sound cliche and cheesy I know. Anyways. 552 had just changed hands when I got back. Dr. Vaughan had become the new Headmaster of 552. I don't know what he had against being called Principal instead. On top of that 552 had a new School Captain. Constantine.
At first it looked like no one was doing anything to stop the fighting and protect those who wanted to live peacefully. That's where I came in. I started up the Anti-Hostiles again. I fought to protect students and tried to stop the fighting. And I felt like I was making a difference. Somehow I made a name for myself and Constantine chose me to be his Fourth Pillar.
But he was just biding his time. He was gathering his forces. See I guess both of us wanted to abolish the Pillar System. I wanted to replace it with the School Council system. Make things hopefully more peaceful. He wanted power. He cast away the title of School Captain and decided that he was above that somehow. He gathered his forces, but before I ever even had the chance to stop him. The school was shut down and torn away.
The news had caught wind of the escape at the facility. How Jacket had been kidnapped and almost beaten to death in the fight against Jester. How the bombs had gone off all over the campus and the facility. How countless other students had been beaten near an inch of death, including myself. Hell I wouldn't be here if Orion hadn't come in to save my punk ass. It took about a month but after that the school had been shut down.
"I don't have time for you right now. Let's go Mitsuki."
My blood boiled at the sound of his voice, and I grew even more angry when I saw him. I walked straight past him, intentionally shouldering him as I exited the room, a piece of paper clutched in my hand. I had found the next clue that Xash had left behind inside of that sculpture. What interested me the most was how he had managed to get that note inside of the sculpture. Xash wasn't very good with his hands so it surprised me.

Three previous school captains gathered in one spot? Interesting.
At the sound of distant tapping, Mitsuki - if she hadn't already - activated 180*. Her body half turned toward the door, eyes staring expectantly for a figure to show as the steps reverberated and rang more and more clearly with each passing second. Lo' and behold- a man with a hooded cape.
She stared.
The intense rise in tension when Shugo instantly identified the man, coupled with his choice of words when addressing the stranger, was more than enough for Mitsuki to understand that these two weren't on friendly terms. Though the question that Mitsuki wanted to ask was what the hell was going on. Was he another #552er as well? And if he was- what were they all doing, congregating in Long Beach, California? Why was he inside #259? Why did anyone come back to visit #259?
If the man did not react to Shugo's shouldering, Mitsuki would follow after him, not bothering to exchange formalities. She was there to aid Shugo on his quest to find something his friend left clues for- not meet new people.
If the man did react... He would quickly find that she would not stand idly, 'less there was specific request to stay put.
But... Just from looking at the man, the way he carried himself...almost made it seem as if he were a gentleman. A formidable gentleman. And that was most odd, because 'formidable gentleman' was like an oxymoron.
