Jeiru rushed to Leo's side, semi tugging on his arm. "Leo, it's alright. No need to start a fight." She calmly reassured him. Then giving a serious glance at the rude invader. "Who exactly is this? He doesn't seem to familiar to me."

“He’s-“ “Why miss if you’re so inclined I will be obliged to tell. I’m sure the whole dojo will be delighted to hear.” Gavin said to Jeiru interrupting Jiren.
“See, I was Jiren’s first prodigy, I was like a son to him. Me and my brother. Yet suddenly, when we begin to wear our hearts on our sleeve he exiles us like dogs. Now we are simply here to-“ “You guys talk WAY too much, for real.” Another man said coming behind Gavin, his skin looking identical to Gavin’s yet his hair being as brown as dirt.
“Stein, can you seriously not? I was in the middle of-“ “Yeah yeah whatever I really don’t care. Hey old man, we’re going to take this, all of this. It’s our own home after all, and we gonna need you and that little trap over there to move along to make this process just a bit easier.
Leo bared his teeth at that remark. It was one thing to be called that as a joke, but as an actual insult easily irritated the youth. “Say it to me again. Right to my face.” Leo said to him stepping forward.
“Ha! The little girl has courage now! Mother of Zeus this is honestly too much!” He said laughing away, not at all taking Leo seriously.

Jeiru once again pulls Leo back, but instead gets up to Stein, staring at him as a sign of challenging. "Hey, do us a favor and please leave. All you are doing is being a nuisance to someone who didn't even do a single thing to harm you."

Stein’s face went from coldly amused to annoyed.
“Oi little girl, who do you think you’re talking to eh?” He slapped Jeiru across the face with enough force to knock her backwards. The sound was also so reverberated throughout the Academy that it created silencer seemingly throughout the whole campus. Leo caught her, and became increasingly angrier.
All of the students assumed their fighting stance, ready to strike at any moment that seemed fit.
“That is enough! There will be no fighting today!” Jirai yelled at the top of his lungs.
“Gavin, Stein. You are to leave at once! If this is your old home, then you still abide by my old rules. Leave!” He ordered them.
“Oh alright, c’mon Stein, daddy Jirai said we have to leave. He said chuckling. With that, both hi and Stein had left along with all the men that came along with them.
Jirai and sighed and looked immediately towards Leo and Jeiru. “What were you two thinking?! I know for a definitive fact I never taught you to be that reckless.”
“Maybe there’s more to a person than just what they’re taught!” Leo yelled out, a rare occurrence for the youth. He had watched a friend get hurt in front of him again, and his anger had yet to subside.

"Leo.....respect." Jeiru softly replied to the blonde. She lifts herself up but with a heavy grunt, she is knocked down on one knee. "I humbly apologize Master Jirai. I should of stayed in my place and not intrude. Please forgive me."

Jirai sighed. “Leo, Jeiru, I know you listen to your heart more than your head, but you must-“
“But nothing Jirai! I’m not going to sit here and just, let those... those....” Leo said in frustration, though seeming to try and collect his thoughts.
Polli came over and hit Leo on the head. “Dumbass. You need to chill. They’re gone, right now we need to figure out what we are as an Academy are going to do alright?”
Leo turned around with a face of pure aggravation, though it began to melt away with reason. He sighed, and pushed Polli out of his way going outside to sit alone.
“Leave him be everyone. Go back to what you were doing, and clean up after yourselves.” He said, then told Jeiru to follow him into the upstairs. There, was a window that looked out upon the outside of the Academy, and Leo sat alone on the railgurad of one of the balconies that looked out onto the mountains.
“What do you know about him Jeiru?” Jirai asked the girl.

"Wh....what I know?"
The ombre haired girl blinked twice to the sudden question Jeiru then rested her chin on the back of her hand, supporting her right elbow with her left hand. After a few seconds of thinking and soft exhales, she looks up to her master.
"All I know is that he's a prodigy and he is widely respected throughout this school." She starts to trail off in her words. "I respect him quite a lot. His skills are amazing......"

“I see. What you know is not wrong, however that is only what everyone knows.” He said to her in response to her answer.
“Do you wish to know who he truly is?” Jirai asked the young girl, turning his wise face towards her looking directly into her eye.
Leo clutched his necklace as he held it within his hand, thinking about his past, his mother especially, though it made him sad, it made him calmer, more rational.

Jeiru widens her eyes to the sudden gesture, but nods.
"Yes, I would like to know more."

“He is the son of the well renown doctor Emma Kliesen and famous spelunker Sir Kliesen. When he was young, he ventured with his father on many of his expeditions, giving him a real sense of danger. Though, on one of these expeditions, Sir Kliesen disappeared, yet it is unknown whether is he still alive or not. He was left fatherless, and a Great Depression had hit the youth. Only his mother to care for him and be there for him. Though that’s when he came here, a recommendation from his own mother. That was when he first began his journey. Though he wasn’t always the prodigy we know. He had dropped out within less than a year, unable to push himself through the physical turmoil required.” Jirai started to explain, though then he let out a great sigh.
“Though only a few years ago, his mother Emma was found deceased. The cause of her death remains completely unknown, but Leo suspects that it has to do with G-Corp, where she has worked. This is what led him to come here again after initially dropping out. In tears he showed himself at our door. I initially refused to let him come back because of his desire for revenge, but I accepted him back into our family, because he had none to call his own anymore.”
Jirai finished explaining Leo’s past, and finally broke eye contact with Jeiru, looking back at Leo. He still sat there, trying to clear his head of all the negative emotions he had felt.

After hearing everything Jirai said, Jeiru looked outside at Leo as well. Feeling sympathy, she sighed sadly and closed her eyes. "I know that feeling. I, too....lived fatherless. I currently don't know where my mom is as well."
She looks at the aggravated spelunker once again. "The only family I knew was my aunt, back in Japan....." She trails off once again, but this time into her thoughts.
"Hopefully I could be of assistance to make him feel.....whole..."

“Well then go! There’s nothing stopping you, and I think he would deeply appreciate it. Plus, girls I’ve learned have a lot more luck in comforting him rather than boys, perhaps due to his love for his mother. Though when these thoughts well up within him he.... well, I’d rather you discover that for yourself. I’ll let you two be.” He said lastly to Jeiru, patting her on the head before leaving back to the rest of the Academy.

She softly chuckles to herself and lifts herself up. Staring once again at him, she smiles and makes her way to him.
Finally reaching the courtyard, Jeiru walks up to the prodigy, tapping on his back.
"Hey, Leo."

Leo was slightly surprised by the sudden appearance of Jeiru behind him, tapping him in his back. “H-hey Jeiru.. I’m sorry for what I did I just didn’t know how to react..” he said solemnly, turning to face Jeiru though turning back almost immediately. A visible tear mark was left on his face, still clutching his necklace.

She takes a seat next to him. Naturally placing her hand beside her, she looks at him.
"It's alright...but are you okay? Something about you seem.....troubling."
