Mercenary at Magic Highschool

Diclaimer: I don't own anything from irregular at magic highschool or Fullmetal Panic.

After Miyuki leaves to get ready for her speech at the entrance ceremony Tatsuya is left alone to wander the school grounds.

"Oh my what a surprise I certainly didn't expect to see your expressionless face around here Tatsuya." Sosuke, a brunette teen with a strong but not bulky physique says walking up to him from the side.

"You are …" Tatsuya says, looking at the teen he previously met on the battlefield on some missions.

"Right, you never got my name. Ooguro." Sosuke replies, whispering Tatsuya's nickname quietly.

"I'm Sosuke Sagara. But I think you know me as Artemis. I know I know a contradictionary nickname given I'm not a girl but better this than gunslinger." Sosuke introduces himself.

"Yes, I remember, we were on a couple of missions together. But I thought you were an independent contractor or should I say mercenary?" Sosuke inquires.

"contractor sounds better and yeah that is true but I became a Japanese citizen two years ago, so I was allowed to join this academy." Sosuke explains.

"I see." Tatsuya says accepting and starts to walk again, looking around with Sosuke joining him.

"So, how've ya been?" Sosuke asks.

"I'm fine and there is no reason for you to be following me." Tatsuya replies.

"And people tell me I'm dry." Sosuke scoffs but just accepts the silence between them as they continue to stroll around the school grounds.

"You are new students aren't you? Is there anything you need help with?" A beautiful black-haired girl wearing a course 1 upperclasswoman uniform asks them.

"No I'm fine." Tatsuya says with a bow.

"Same here." Sosuke says, looking the girl over, his eyes lingering on the CAD peeking out of her sleeve just as Tatsuya's are.

"I see, I am the president of the student council. Mayumi Saegusa, nice to meet you." She says smiling at the two boys.

"Nice to meet you as well. I'm Sosuke Sagara" Sosuke replies with a slight bow.

"My name is Shiba Tatsuya." Tatsuya introduces himself giving her a quick bow as well.

A girl runs over to them in a hurry telling Mayumi "the rehearsal is starting. Oh, are you in a middle of something?"

"No, we're alright here. Thank you for your help." Sosuke tells her.

"But I didn't even help you…" Mayumi says while the two boys turn to leave.

"You made us feel more welcome that is more than enough." Sosuke replies, giving her a smile before going after Tatsuya who's already started to walk away.

|an hour later|

The new students have gathered in the assembly hall, where the student council will give a welcoming speech.

Tatsuya and Sosuke have taken a seat at the very back of the room, since the 1st class member are sitting in the front rows with the 2nd class member are sitting in the back.

"Excuse me, is that seat next to you taken?" A glasses wearing girl asks Tatsuya.

"Be my guest." Tatsuya replies, offering the seats next to him.

"Uhm, I'm Mizuki Shibata, nice to meet you." The glasses wearing girl introduces herself while a redhaired girl joins her, taking the seat next to her.

"I'm Tatsuya Shiba, nice to meet you too." Tatsuya replies.

"I'm Sosuke Sagara." Sosuke adds, peeking around Tatsuya, sitting on the other side of him.

"I'm Erika Chiba, nice to meet you two." The redhead says.

"It's a cool coincident isn't it? Shiba, Shibata and Chiba all sitting next to each other." Erika asks.

"Sure." Tatsuya says.

The entrance ceremony then starts with Mayumi welcoming everyone before Miyuki takes the stage as the classes' representative.

After the ceremony everyone was assigned to their classes and given their student ids.

"Shiba, Sagara, want to check out our homeroom?" Erika asks them after they've found out the four of them are in the same class.

"Sorry, I'm supposed to meet up with my sister." Tatsuya tells them.

"Sister?" Erika asks.

"Is she the class representative by any chance?" Mizuki asks him.

"Yes." He replies when Miyuki makes her way over to them.

"Brother, thank you for waiting." She tells him arriving at the small group.

"that was quick." Tatsuya says.

"Hello, we meet again." The student council president greets the two boys arriving with Miyuki.

"By the way brother, who are all these people?" Miyuki asks him.

"These are my classmates." Tatsuya tells her.

"Nice to meet you, I'm Miyuki Shiba." Miyuki introduces herself to the three.

"I'm Mizuki Shibata." Mizuki replies with a bow.

"I'm Erika Shibata, you can call me Erika." Erika introduces herself.

"I'm Sosuke Sagara. I'm an acquaintance of your brother." He says, making Miyuki give him a surprised look.

"Miyuki are the people from the student council done with you?" Tatsuya asks.

"It's alright, we only wanted to introduce ourselves for now. We'll go more into detail later Miyuki, alright?" Mayumi tells them, making her vice president give her a surprised look.

"And you two, let's have a nice uninterrupted chat sometime." Mayumi tells Sosuke and Tatsuya.

"Sure, I'm looking forward to it." Sosuke replies happily, making the student council member stare at him angrily.

Mayumi then leaves the group with her vice president following her after glaring at them.
