That's one meaning...though I was referring to the second definition.
"conspicuously offensive" "obvious inconsistencies with what is right or proper"
Basically. Try to stay within limits of the character's personalities (the AT ones) and keep offensive material to an appropriate level & nothing too dirty.

I look around for a shortcut to get to school. "I can't miss another class or I'll be expelled. aaaargh! I'm so far away!" I bang the fence with my arms. They start to hurt, but I didn't care. I look forward. "Fine! I like a good challenge!" I jump over the fence and run down the cliff. "Let's make this fun!"
Guy with bike: Hey kid! What do you think you're doing!?
Too bad. I was already running, near falling, down the cliff.
Guy: Crazy kid...
I run as fast as I could, dodging stray trees, branches, and avoiding the rocks. It was like playing a videogame, only I won't have a second chance. I kept running down until I finally hit solid ground. The thrill of having my life on the edge, the feeling of constant wind in my face, my adrenaline rushing me to keep going. It was an awesome feeling! I don't stop there.
It was a good thing I was the best on the track team before I quit. I kept running and running, afraid my bones would give in or the ground would catch on fire if I went any faster. Actually, that would be kinda cool. But I didn't bother to look behind me, afraid I might slow down or hit something. The wind in my eyes were more of a bother. I could barely keep my eyes open. "Blah!" A bug went in my mouth. I spat it out to the side and kept running. Crash!
I fly across the air and land on the ground. The pain from the impact courses though my entire body. I nearly blacked out, but I kept strong. I'm surprised I'm not in a hospital yet. "owowowowow. What'd I hit?" I hesitated to look up.
Man: Hey you! Look what you did to my car! You better hope you can pay for the damages.
"Sorry. I think I broke a rib. Think you can help me?"
Man: Help you? I'm the one that needs help. Look at the dent in my car!
I look at his car. The license plate caught my eye. "Bourd?"
Bourd: That's my name. Now what are you going to do about this? I know! How about you be my slave for the rest of your life?
"Well I- uh..." I saw his watch. There were three minutes left until the gates close. "Crap! Gotta go, sorry!" I got back on my feet and ran off as fast as I could. I hear the guy yell behind me.
Bourd: Get back here!
I swear he was twice my size. I didn't care. Just run, I kept telling myself. "I'm gonna make it, I'm gonna make it, I'm gonna make it!" The school gates were finally in sight! It was closing fast. I spot Flute at the scene. "Hey Flute! Hold that gate!" My adrenaline wouldn't let me slow down.
Flute: hmm?
"Come on, make it make it, make it!" The gate was near closed. I took a dive and jumped through the small opening in between the closings. "Wragh!" I rolled on the hard ground and kept rolling until I crashed into the building. I think I heard another one of my ribs cracking. Despite that, I stand and gave a gymnastics victory pose.
*insert victory music here*
Flute: That was quite the stunt you pulled.
"Thanks. What do I get?"
Flute: Detention.
"eeeeeeh!?"
---------------------
And so I enter my class. It's as noisy as ever. I assume the teacher was late to class... again. I sat at my seat and banged my head on the desk, ready to sleep. My legs were so sore. I begin to wish I would never have to run ever again. I was about to doze off until I heard her voice.
Girl: You're finally here. What do you think you're doing, coming so late?
"Save me the lecture. My legs feel like lead. You ever had the feeling, Shurelia?"
Shurelia: No, I can't say I have. But that's no excuse for you being late. You're just lucky that sensei's not here yet.
"I'm sorry already..."
Shurelia: You are a student of Ar Tonelico High school. And as such, you must honor your uniform by being on time and keep up your grades.
"I'm sorry."
Shurelia: Sorry isn't good enough. As the president of the student council and class president, I cannot allow you to be late. I care about your future and I must-
I bang on the desk and stood up to eye level with her. I held my face to Shurelia's while holding her chin with my hand and I gazed deeply into her eyes. She blushes. "Lady Shurelia. You must not hold an agitated look on your face. You are much more beautiful when you're smiling."
Shurelia: Wha-wha....
"Please. Bring light to my dark day with your bright smile." I had a way with words, I admit.
Shurelia: I-I-I-...
I guess I picked up that skill when I was on the debate team before I quit. It didn't really bother me to talk to her like that. She really was cute. Or is it beautiful? She was kind of a mix between the two. It was fun teasing that face. oh well. I sat back down, seeing as my legs still felt like lead. Makes sense. After all, I did run a marathon's worth in 10 minutes.
Shurelia: J-just don't let it happen again, okay? You're just lucky sensei's late.
She looks the other way. To hide her blushing, I assume. "If only Flute was the one late."
Shurelia: Speaking of late, have you seen Jack?
"No. I can't say I... wait... I might ha-" I felt a smack on my back.
Guy: That was quite the stunt you pulled there, kid!
If my cracked ribs weren't on the brink of breaking before, they certainly aren't on the brink now. "I have a name, Jack..." Luckily, I don't get mad at my friends. Or else I would have given him a one way ticket to the underworld.
Jack: Don't sweat the small stuff. I could'a given you a ride on my bike if you asked. You didn't have to jump that cliff. All the way from Song Stone Park too. I never knew you're quite the athlete.
Shurelia: I-Is that true?
"Yeah, that's right. So? How did you get pass the gate?"
Jack: Me and Flute go back. I'm sorry to hear that you got detention though. Better luck next time.
"Save me the pity."
Jack: huh?
"I said it's a big city."
Jack: uh...yeah, it is.
Shurelia: Barsett-sensei is coming. Get back to your seat!
Jack took his seat to the left of mine. Shurelia sat down about three seats from mine. I would have sat down anyway. I'm sore everywhere. I got hit by a frame, misc items from Misha's room, a falling girl, a car, the floor, the building, and Jack's slap on the back to top it all off. I have a high threshold for pain. Leard Barsett-sensei enters the room.
Shurelia: Stand!
We stood up.
Shurelia: Bow!
We bowed.
Class: Good morning, sensei.
Leard: Good morning, class.
The class said good morning. I said, "I'm hungry. Feed me funbuns." I'm sure he wouldn't hear me.
Shurelia: Sit.
We sit. I yawned and thought about going to sleep for the rest of the class.
Leard: I apologize for being late. I had to guide our new student.
The class whispers about the new student.
"New student?" That caught my interest. I do enjoy new things happening.
Leard: That's right, we have a new student with us today.
Jack: Hey, you think it's a hot girl? I hope so.
"Knowing you, I wouldn't doubt it."
Leard: Come in, child.
Girl: Thank you.
My jaw nearly fell on the ground as the girl walked in. I think Jack's had too, but I didn't want to check. My eyes were fixed on the girl who's uniform wasn't from this country.
Aurica: uhm...My name is Aurica Nestmile. I hope I get along with everyone.
The class was silent for a moment, and then they clapped. Jack forced my jaw shut.
Jack: Pull yourself together, kid. You already have Misha, remember?
I smack Jack on the back of his head without looking away from Aurica.
Leard: Let's see. You can sit in...
I lift my text book to my face. I hoped she didn't see me. I don't know why. I just didn't want to say hi to her right now! Please don't sit anywhere near me! My heart can't handle this! Please please please plea-
Leard: Sit in row three, seat five.
Row three seat five!? I look to my right. There's an empty seat. Crap....crap...CRAP! I'm in row four seat five! My heart pounded as she walked over. All the guys in the glass were googling eyes at her and the girls are admiring her. She's gonna see me anyway, why am I hiding? Maybe it's because of today's incident. Or maybe it's because I...I...argh! She's almost here! What am I gonna do!? What!?
Aurica: ah! It's you! Remember me?
"ahahah....hah....hi...Aurica."
---------------
"...Here." Leard sensei was calling roll. I always tried to figure out what the order was on the attendance sheet, but I never did figure it out. I just gave up eventually. It got boring.
Leard: Jack Hamilton.
Aurica nudged me. I look over and saw that she had written something down on her notebook. I guess she wanted to talk without getting in trouble. I go along with it.
Jack: Present.
Aurica: I didn't think we were going to be studying together.
I smirked and wrote on my own notebook. "I'm just as surprised as you are. Why didn't you tell me you were going to Ar Tonelico High?"
Leard: Shurelia
Shurelia: Here.
Aurica: You never asked.
"Darn it. I need more time to prepare myself for this. You nearly gave me a heart attack!"
Leard: Mir.
Aurica: Sorry...
Leard: Mir?
"No, don't apologize. Still, what a coincidence. This doesn't happen every day."
Jack: Sensei, she's absent again. Maybe she's still sick.
Leard: Again? That girl never comes to school.
Aurica: I told you so. Blackie's a lucky cat.
"Speaking of which, where is he-" Before I finished writing my sentence, a loud meow echoed the room.
Leard: What was that? Don't you kids know the rules!? No pets in school!
I yawned out as loud as I could and tried to make it sound close to meowing. "Sorry, sensei. I didn't get much sleep last night."
Leard: Keep it down. Unlike you, I'm trying to make the other kids here have a good future. After all, the pen's-
"-mightier than the sword." I mouthed his last sentence as he said it. Too predictable.
Aurica: I'm sorry!
"You brought it with you!?"
Aurica: I couldn't just leave him outside. He'd get lonely and hungry.
"sheesh...." I couldn't tell, but I could feel someone staring at my back. I didn't know at the time that it was Shurelia.
-------------
Break arrives and I finally got some rest from learning. "Finally, I can sleep without sensei bothering me..."
Jack: You sleep anyway.
Aurica: Thank you for covering for Blackie. I'm sorry.
"It's no problem. I'm serio-" I didn't get to finish my sentence.
Misha: Out of my way!
Misha busted through the door and tackles me to the ground. She hugs me tightly. Tight enough that I start to suffocate. She talks while moving up and down my body, her breasts rubbing on my face while her legs hugged too high on my right thigh. It was impossible for a normal healthy young male to not get excited.
Misha: I missed you sooo much! It's so hard being so far from you for so long!
"You're only in the class next door!" My voice was muffled. "I can't breathe!"
Jack: Misha, get a hold of yourself.
Aurica: uhm...
Misha: huh? Is she new?
Jack: She's Aurica. New student. And very lovely addition to our wonderful, beautiful asset filled school.
Misha: Aurica, huh?
Aurica: uhm. I don't think he can take any mo-
Shurelia: Aurica, come with me.
Aurica: eeeh?
Shurelia grabs her hand and dragged her off, out of the classroom.
Jack: That was weird.
Misha: Yeah. What do you think they're going to do? What do you thin-huh?
I laid unconscious between Misha's breasts. It was marshmellow hell.
----------------
Shurelia brought Aurica outside the building.
Aurica: Shurelia? What's wrong?
Shurelia: I don't think you should get too close to him.
Aurica: Him?
Shurelia: You know who I mean.
Aurica: Why?
Shurelia: Well, he's a complete idiot. He's always skipping school, he's mean, sarcastic, always joining clubs then quitting them, and he's a pain in the butt.
Aurica: You mean he hurts people?
Shurelia: It's not like that. I guess he does have his strong points, but he's just... out of the ordinary. And he's a pervert.
Aurica: He can't be bad.
Shurelia: I just told you he's-
Aurica: He can't be a bad person. After all, if a kind person like you likes him so much, he can't be a bad person.
The bell rings.
Aurica: ah. We should be getting back. I'll see you in class, Shurelia!
She runs off.
Shurelia: Wha-...I...I like him? That can't be! That's impossible. Only a fool would like someone like him.
Shurelia's heart beats faster as she continues to think while she walks to class.
--------------
Class started up again and Leard was talking of something about how viruses can control machines. I didn't care. I already learned about that some time ago. It was also obvious if you think about it a little. I was about to doze to sleep before Aurica poked me awake.
"What?" Aurica shoved her note book toward me.
Aurica: During lunch, can you meet me at the-
Leard: What do we have here?
Sensei takes Aurica's notebook.
Leard: No notes in class. You can pick this up after school.
"Hey! Sensei! Give that ba-"
Leard: I hope you don't have any problems with that.
"None...."
-------------
Lunch break finally starts and the majority of the class raced out of the class to order their bread.
"Hey Aurica, where did you want to meet again?" No response. I looked around the class, but she was nowhere to be found. "She left already... where could she have gone? I can't leave her hanging like this..." I gathered my thoughts for a second before I gave a sigh. "Guess I'll check the-"
A. Cafeteria
B. Library
C. Student Council room
D. School rooftop

I'm debating wether or not to post the next chapter either tomorrow or the next day, or the next day~nya. I want to get on with the story to get to the good parts, but there's people who didn't read the earlier chapters yet. Well, I'm not sure if they did read it, since they didn't say~nya
If it were me, and I were three chapters behind on these huge chapters, I'd kinda lose motivation to keep reading.~nya And when I do, I'd just skim through and might miss the funny and good parts. Well that's just me. I'm not sure if anyone else is the same. So if you do read, just make any kind of post and I'll know when to post the next chapter without worry~nya.

Why don't you just write the next chapters in Word & then post 'em up every other day so the slackers can catch up? That way you don't loose any good ideas & people don't get lost figuring out where they left off.

Right now, I'm wondering on Mir's personality, if I ever decide to put her in~nya. Since she only had hate in the first game and I never played the second.
I'm thinking since Mir never really had contact with the humans, she'll be unsociable and talks a little. She doesn't like anybody much(like in game 1) and is hard to talk to~nya.
That personality agreeable~nya?(mostly directed to Ayulsa)

"Where could she be..." I put my finger to my head as I closed my eyes. Think, think, think.
---Flashback---
Aurica: Hey, can you do me a favor?
"Yeah?"
Aurica: Can you take me somewhere where I can see the city better?
"A place where you can see the city better... I know just the place."
---End flashback---
"That's it!" I ran toward the stairs which lead to the roof. After about ten steps, my legs gave out on me and I tripped. "Shoot!" I tried to grab onto anything I could. Crash!
I land on something soft. "Not again...ouch, what did I hi-AAAAAH!" I looked forward while on the ground. I stared into red and white stripes. I immediately jump back. I don't want any misunderstandings! "Sorry, I wasn't looking where I was going!"
The girl lied there on the ground. "huh...she's not moving. Not....moving...could she be...no...DEAD!? Crap! I killed her! What am I going to do!?"
Shurelia: You...
She was right behind me. "Shurelia! I didn't mean t-" WHAM! I didn't get to finish. Shurelia slapped me right across the face. A loud smack sound echoed across the room.
Shurelia: Pervert! How dare you get your hands on Meimei-chan!"
"Meimei-chan!? We have more important things to worry about than tha-"
Meimei: ooh? Mornin' Shurelia.
"huh? She was just...sleeping?"
Shurelia: No mercy...
I felt her death glare on me. Shurelia was one you didn't want to make mad. "uh...I'm glad to see you're okay. Well....Gotta go!" I dash off as fast as I could. My legs couldn't afford to give out this time.
Shurelia: Get back here! sheesh...
Meimei: What happened, Shurelia?
Shurelia: That letch pushed you on the ground and took advantage of you.
Meimei: Shurelia. You know he wouldn't do that. He's not that type of person. You know it was an accident.
Shurelia: Well... still.
Meimei: Could it be that you're jealous?
Shurelia: Do-do-don't say things like that!
Meimei: *yawn* okay, okay. I'm going back to class. So sleepy...
Shurelia: Why does my heart keep beating so much...
Finally I made it to the door. It was never locked. No one ever came up here anyway. "Well... she wouldn't know that." I opened the door. The winds quickly rushed in and swept the hair off my face. I shield my eyes from the sudden glare of the sun as I walked out. As my eyes adjusted I looked at the sky. "Wooow."
The sky was vast and huge. I never thought to look at the sky from here. There weren't as many trees in the way, so everything was so clear. The sun was surrounded by blue sky and circled by numbers of clouds. It was breath taking. I admired the sight before turning to a voice from behind me.
Aurica: Hey! I knew you'd find me!
She was sitting on the level above the entrance door.
--------
Aurica: So how did you find me?
"I just remembered what you said earlier today. I figured you still wanted to see the world better."
Aurica and I sat on the upper levels of the roof. We leaned on the water tower and stared at the vast opening that was our school yard, riddled with students playing with each other. Aurica was playing with Blackie.
Aurica: I'm surprised you remember.
"Guess Blackie really is a lucky cat."
Blackie: nya.
"So what did you want to talk about?"
Aurica: No reason. I just wanted to have some company.
"I see."
We were silent for a few moments. I don't know why. The silence was fun. Guess it was because it was the first time I ever hung out with someone and not talk. I didn't want even that to get boring, so I broke the silence. "So what's the story with the uniform?"
Aurica: This?
"Yeah. It's not this school's. Heck, it's not even from this country, from what I can tell.
Aurica: Well....
It was silent again. Aurica looked kinda sad. I began to regret asking her.
Aurica: I'm a foster child.
"What?"
Aurica: My parents died in an accident, so I've been moving from foster parent to foster parent. That also means that I have to switch schools. I didn't want to trouble my foster parents by buying a new uniform for every school, so I kept this one until I move again.
"Woah...wait, why do you keep switching foster parents?
Aurica: It's because I'm useless.
"What was that?"
Aurica: I'm useless. I can't do anything right. I always cause trouble for my parents, so they don't want me anymore. The foster agency is also getting fed up with me. I...I can't do anything.
"You idiot!"
Aurica: huh?
"Don't talk like that. You're not useless. You have a kind heart that wants to help others. You have a heart that craves help from others. That is not useless at all. You are a person. Those foster parents don't know what they're thinking. They don't know anything. Aurica, you just need to put your mind into it and you can do anything. If you feel down, just yell out to yourself, 'There is no one in this world that is useless'. If anyone else says otherwise, I'll send them to kingdom come!"
Aurica: T...thank you... That was the kindest thing anyone has ever said to me.
"It better be." I sat back down. I didn't even know when I got up. I was too in the zone. "A smile is better on you after all."
Aurica: I can see why Shurelia and Misha like you so much.
"huh? Speak up."
Aurica: oh, that's right! Shurelia told me that you quit clubs after you join them. Why is that?
"oh, that? Well... long story."
Aurica: I have all the time in the world. Or until the bell rings anyway.
"To make it simple, I'm bored of them. Everyday's the same, you know? I wake up, go to school, go home, eat, do homework, sleep, and then repeat. That's just boring, you know? I like to try new things, so I decided to go out for some clubs. At first I thought I'd try out the debate team to try and argue. But that got boring after a week, since no one knew how to debate. Or maybe I just got too good." Aurica smiled.
"I thought it was boring because all we did was stand there and yell out big words in a fancy way. So I thought I'd go physical and joined the track team. But no one could catch up to me since the beginning. To be honest, everything comes easy to me."
Aurica: But that's amazing!
"Not really. I don't get the satisfaction of finally being able to get something right after training if it just comes naturally. It's boring. After the track team, I remembered the saying 'no pain no gain' and so I thought about joining something painful to gain excitement. So I joined the wrestling team. That got easy too... but I did gain endurance like a madman."
Aurica: Really?
"Yeah. Even now, I'm still fit as a fiddle!" I jumped up and did a couple of punches. "See?" I kicked the air. Suddenly, a shock ran through my body. "ugh!" I collapsed on the ground and held my chest in pain. "Not now..." The pain finally took its toll. My adrenaline that was keeping me from feeling pain had finally worn off and I was finally reaping what I sow. My eyes were beginning to flash red.
Aurica: What's happening? Are you alright!?
"It's...nothing. Just a couple of broken ribs." The pain surged again. "And maybe some internal bleeding. AAAAAAAARGH!"
Aurica: No! Don't die! Please... don't leave me too!
Sing!
Aurica: What? Who's there!?
Sing!
Aurica: ...okay.
Aurica closed her hands as she grasped her hands together. The wind picked up force. It seemed as if it would pick us away, but the wind was calm. As if it was supporting Aurica. She began to sing.
"Aurica?"
Aurica began to glow a sudden blue. It was the most beautiful blue I had ever seen. Her clothes and hair fluttered in the wind, as if she was a descending angel giving me a new life. The words that came from her were words that I did not recognize. "Is this...hymnos?"
My body began to feel fuzzy inside. Little by little my pain was subsiding as the red flashes began to fade away. The sky was blue and white again. My body felt as good as new. Aurica finished singing and her hair began to fall back into place as the blue faded away.
"Aurica...what did you do?"
Aurica: I...I don't know. The words just came to my head and I just felt I had to sing it. I...I thought it would save you. Did I do good?"
"Did good?! You did great! I feel like a new man!" I jumped up and down in great enthusiasm. It really was a great feeling. Aurica and I laughed as I acted silly. "hahahaha! I feel great! I can run another maratho-woah!"
I tripped on my own footing. This pattern is getting to be very familiar to me as fell toward Aurica.
Aurica: eep!
Crash!
"aaah. You oka-......." I was at a loss for words. By reflex I tried to grab something, but not this.
Aurica:............
Aurica was on the ground, her leg wrapped around my neck, my face a breath away from what was between her legs, my right hand still on her left breast. I didn't need to look to know. Her breast was a familiar feeling. It was marshmellow hell waiting to give me a trip I would never come back from. The bell rang, snapping me out of my state of shock.
"ah-ah-ah" I sat straight up. "I'm sorry! I didn't mean to! It was an honest mistake...."
She stood up and began walking away. She picked up Blackie and started down the stairs.
"Aurica!" I ran after her and grabbed her shoulder. I just didn't want a misunderstanding. "Aurica, please believe me-" SMACK!
She slapped me across the face. I was stunned again as she walked away. "...foul is fair, and fair is foul." I sigh to myself.
---------
We didn't talk for the rest of the day. She just stared at the board, not even taking a slight look my way once. No notes, no glances. I felt really bad, but I didn't want to make things worse. I just kept thinking that she'll cool down and realize it was an accident soon. Time heals all wounds, right? I really did hope so.
---------
The last bell rang and I tried to talk to Aurica. She did not hesitate to get up and walk out the room, not even looking my way.
Jack: *whistles* You must have done something reaaaaally bad this time.
"...I'm going home."
Jack: Suit yourself.
----
I didn't care about detention today. I just wanted to get this day over with. I walked home, thinking about today's event. It just kept bothering me. Was it really my fault? Though I admit I did like that position... What am I thinking!? This isn't right. I sigh. I snapped out of my thoughts and looked around. This area didn't look familiar at all. "Great....lost during my train of thought."
I close my eyes and sigh to myself toward the sky. I decided to listen to the chirping birds to calm myself. It was rather quiet. Then I heard a sound. It was in a language I had not heard until today. "Hymnos? Aurica?"
Maybe I was near her house. I followed the sound. I realized that the sound was similar, but it was slightly different from what I heard from Aurica. The sound from earlier healed my wounds. This one made me feel...right, yet...sad. I realized it was a song. This song led me to a backyard. There was a girl there. She was singing with her eyes closed to the sky.
Girl: Was ki ra revatail whou Metafalica crushue, mule
Presia kiafa sarla mea
Faura yerwe murfan anw sol ciel
Faura sonwe murfan anw sol ciel ee....
It was so...beautiful. I stepped again to get closer and stepped on a branch. She stopped singing and looked my way. "uhm...that was a beautiful song."
Girl: ....it is?
"Did you make it yourself?"
Girl: I did.
"That's amazing. What's it called?"
Girl: ...Exec......Harmonious.
"It's a good song. Although it is kinda sad, I can feel that you put a lot of love into it."
Girl: You can tell?
"Yeah."
Girl:...
"What's your name?"
Girl:...Mir.
"Mir, huh? It suits you."
Mir: I don't like it.
"You don't? Why not?"
Mir:.....it sounds like mule.
"ahahaha..." I laugh nervously. She was a unique kind of character. "Well then...how about you get a nickname?"
Mir: A nickname?
"Yeah. hmm. A suitable nickname.... Say. How about Jakuri?"
Mir:...Jakuri.
"Yeah. That sounds about right. Jakuri. Yeah, that suits you perfectly.
Mir: ...okay. You can call me that.
"Really? That's great! Glad I can be of help. oh yeah. By the way, I'm lost. Can you point the way to Ar Tonelico High school?"
Mir: Ar Tonelico High School?
"Yeah. That's the school I go to. I got lost, and I only know how to get to my house from there. Do you know the way?"
Jakuri looked at the ground. She shifted her head to the right and pointed the direction to the school.
"Thanks! I hope we meet again!" I went in that direction. I thought Jakuri was just wearing a really really low shirt. I really did. I couldn't tell, since the hedges were in the way. But as I passed through the fence and the hedges got out of the way, I realized that she was indeed, wearing no clothes. Crash!
Distracted, I run into the telephone pole and blacked out.
-----------
I woke up soon after. My eyes were blurry. "What happened?" My eyes cleared up and I see someone above me leaning over me.
Mir: Are you okay? Your nose is bleeding.
I leap back. "Mir!" I noticed that she was still wearing no clothes. I look the other way. "ahahahaha! Yeah! I'm fine! This is just from hitting the wall, that's all! ahahaha! Well then, I-I gotta go! See ya!" I ran off. "Please put some clothes on!" I shouted as I ran.
I kept running until I went around the block. I passed a home and stopped. I scooted back and cranked my head to the right. There it was...my house. I looked back and Mir was still there, just getting up. I looked at my house and back at Mir. It turns out...we're practically neighbors.
------------
The next day comes. I didn't get any sleep. This time, I wanted to go to school to make up to Aurica as soon as possible. I went and woke up Misha. She obeyed this time. Rare, but it happens. I give her a pat on the head to congradulate her. She seems to like that.
I finally arrive at school and it seemed a little more crowded in class than usual. I just couldn't put my finger on it. ah, maybe it's because sensei's here early. That must be it.
I sit on my seat beside Aurica. She's still silent as yesterday. I sigh. Maybe she'll calm down during lunch.
Jack: Hey, kid.
"I still have a name."
Jack: Yeah yeah. Anyway, have you heard about the rampage of viruses out lately?
"No. What about it?"
Jack: Don't you watch T.V? It was all over the place yesterday.
"I'm sorry if I have my own problems."
Jack: Well people are getting hurt nowadays by machines that are infected with viruses. Turns out that the lab got blown up and they escaped. If I were you, I'd be careful at night.
"If you were me you'd be hitting on Aurica right now."
Jack: What was that?"
"If you were me, you'd be fitting an ocarina right now."
Jack: Why would I do that?
"No reason."
The bell rang. We all snap to attention.
Shurelia: Kiritsu.
We all stood up.
Shurelia: Rei.
We bow.
Class: Good morning sensei.
"I'm hungry. Feed me funbuns."
Shurelia: Chakuseki.
We all sit. Since Leard-sensei was here early, he takes attendance right away.
Leard: Trouble maker.
I knew who he was referring to. "Here." I didn't care to correct him.
Leard: Jack.
Jack: Hey.
"Man...how am I supposed to apologize to Aurica if she won't listen to me?" I think to myself.
Leard: Shurelia
Shurelia: Present.
I bang my head on the desk. "Man. I'm hungry too. Forgot to eat breakfast."
Leard: Mir.
"aaaaargh! This just couldn't get any......Mir?"
Mir: Here.
I turn around. "Jakuri!?"
Leard: oh, Mir. You came? It's nice to finally see you coming.
Jack: Jakuri? Kid, you know her? Why didn't you tell me she was such a babe?
"Well, you see, this happened and then that happened and she..."
Mir: Don't call me Jakuri.
Jack: huh?
Mir: Only he can.
She points to me.
Jack: oh...sorry Mir.
This is just weird! Why is she at school!? Is this really the same Jakuri I saw yesterday!? What the hell's going o-....well at least she's wearing clothes.

To be honest, I didn't really think that you guys would choose the right answer so easily~nya. I'll give out what the others would have dished out.
Cafeteria: You would have met Jack and talked about life with Misha and their childhood. Then Jack would have suggested thinking back on what Aurica had said to see if there were any clues. Main would have thought about what Aurica said that morning.
Library: Would have met Shurelia and talked to her about life and their past that they had together. Then a subject would have triggered a thought in main's head about what Aurica said earlier that day.
Student Council room: Meet Radolf doing paper work. To be honest, I didn't really think this one through, since I didn't think anyone would have picked this. Looks like I was right. If they did get picked, I would have thought about making a background flashback convo about main character's life. And explain why Lyner isn't in this world.
Rooftop: Yeah, everybody picked this one.
In this chapter, I didn't make a multiple choice, since I thought that would lessen the impact of the final moment~nya. To make it up to you, I'll make a side chapter to add to the next chapter~nya!
Redo
A. Cafeteria
B. Library
C. Student Council room
D. Don't worry about it. We'll just imagine in our heads what would have happened.
Edit: Wow that bar's really small ------------------->

I'm thinking since Mir never really had contact with the humans, she'll be unsociable and talks a little. She doesn't like anybody much(like in game 1) and is hard to talk to~nya.
Sorry I never saw this before, but yep, I think that's pretty much how it sound be... I sort of imagine she's like that in AT2 as well. (She probably has deep underlying feelings of liking for people, but is really afraid to express them, although she'd never show that she was afraid, either...)
And I pick A.
