Morning walks always have something that goes wrong...

Silent like a cat... Bad pun but I could care less, it was truth. I made little to no sound when I walked, especially at night. Midnight was when I did my best work. I wrote better. I was more confident. I was quicker. I was stronger. It was how I worked.

Bap!

I was also far more alert...

I knew that sound from somewhere...

Bap!

Again. I followed it.

Bap!

Bap!

BAP!

I ducked, thankfully dodging a fast moving soccer ball that came flying my way and ricocheted off a tree beside my head. Way too close...

I stayed low and slinked over to the edge of a small clearing, noticing one of my fellow students working on her aim...

And her kicking power. I noted several deflated balls surrounding the area...

And I was also right next to her goal.

Yet another soccer ball tore past my head, cause me to cringe slightly and duck down farther.

This continued, the occassional ball tearing past me, slowly but surely, the numbers over time decreasing.

I heard her collapse and I stood up, making sure to remain hidden, only to see the sun coming up and one soccer ball sitting in the goal...

Her eyes slid closed and I heard her breathing level out. She was asleep.

I sighed and stepped out, flipping a deflated ball over into a crater with my foot as I tucked my arms in my sleeves. I knew she had classes later today, I had a few with her, so I walked over to her and shifted her so I could get her off the ground. She was taller than me, as most were, and, therefore, heavier. I managed and tapped shunpou to get her to her room and then walked back to my own. I pulled my hair down, brushing it, and tied it back up. I checked my appearance, making sure I was in order, before turning toward the door. I stepped out of my room and started walking down the halls, just wandering about, before finding myself at the Hakuda training rooms.

That was also my first class of the day.

'Someone's up early.'

'Hush. You know I have a habit of this.'

'Yes, yes. And you also have a habit of walking without thinking and going places you aren't supposed to...'

'True...'

'Hint. Hint. Look around. Before you get in some serious trouble...'

'...'

'KIRA!'

That got my attention. I had a bad habit of that... Completely zoning out when I was walking around. I looked up and noticed something...

I was on the other side of the freaking dorms, walking around the back half of the male dorms actually...

"Thank you, Toorima. I'll be going now."

I made like lightning and bolted out, using shunpou to get out as fast as I could before I got caught.

'Mental note. Pay more attention to where I walk next time.'

'Yes. You do that.'

'Toorima?'

'Yes?'

'Shut up.'
