::Mostly for Yoko but if someone else wants to poke the Girl Gang Gang, go right ahead...

At Duel Academia Elementary-Middle School in the middle of Domino, on the Middle School side of the school, Mrs. Sakaki, you find a shed that has been sequestered by the "D-Wheel Research Club".

Sitting on a barrel is a girl in a middle school uniform, who very clearly has green hair and fox ears and a fox tail, playing on a beaten guitar. She is mildly tone-deaf, but you can tell she is trying.

The Club's Sign (which is handmade) reads:

D-WHEEL RESEARCH CLUB

Presidents: Wakahisa, Kamala / Wakahisa, Rani
Vice President: Kenzaki, Kanan
Treasurer: Mudoji, Kyoko

It looks like whoever their club supervisor was listed but it's broken off.

You can hear what sounds like girls mildly arguing inside. No boys, how curious.::

*Yoko curiously approaches the shed, taking note of the sign and the girl with the fox ears and tail sitting on a barrel playing the guitar.*

Hello there. I'm here to request a meeting with the D-Wheel Research Club, if possible.

[hatohollowharvest]

Can I ask who's asking, ma'am?

::Pauses her guitar playing.::

[sakaki_family_values]

Mrs. Sakaki.
I'm your new Principal.

I'm just looking to get to know some of the students around the school.

[hatohollowharvest]

Well, I'm the club treasurer. The rest of the club is uh, inside, and I think their latest attempt at trying to strap a jet engine to a bike didn't go so well...

[sakaki_family_values]

Oh dear.

Well, I certainly like the innovation, but jet engines might be a little too powerful for a bike.

Am I alright to go in?

[hatohollowharvest]

I think so, ma'am...?

::Politely bows her head.::

[sakaki_family_values]

Thank you.

Oh! And by any chance, does everyone in the club like cats by any chance?

[hatohollowharvest]

I think Kamala and Rani like them enough and I think Kanan's family worships a cat goddess of some sort...?

[sakaki_family_values]

Okay, good!

*She gives a signal to a... nearby tree? After a moment, a large white cat with brown spots, and different coloured eyes jumps out of it. It's also wearing a cute red tie as a collar. Yoko picks the cat up.*

Core might help break the ice a little.

[hatohollowharvest]

::Stiffens up on the barrel, tail pointing up, lightly growling as Core starts hissing at her.::

[sakaki_family_values]

Core, that's not very nice.

*She pets the cat to try and calm him down.*

Sorry about that. He's usually a very laid back cat.

[hatohollowharvest]

C-cats and m-me d-don't get a-along, m-ma'am, I-I'll go!

::She skitters off grabbing her guitar.::

[sakaki_family_values]

R-Right. It was nice to meet you--
---aaaand she's gone.

*Yoko makes a mental note that Kyoko isn't a fan of cats. She looks down at Core in her arms.*

Well, let's hope you make a better impression on the rest of the girls.

*With that, she enters into the shed.*

[ancient_prophecy]

::You find a girl on a half assembled D-Wheel, wearing a witch's hat. She has long long black-blue hair with small hints of red.

Under her is a young teenage girl in overalls, working with wrenches. You can't see her face.

Near theme is a miniaturized jet engine being handled by a girl with equally long purple-red hair, wearing glasses.

And in the corner is... a gremlin with long brown hair dyed green at the ends with red ribbons, their feet up on a desk as they read "Duel Pro Monthly", a Dueling magazine still printing print editions.::

This is going to rock so hard.

[sakaki_family_values]

*As she walks in, she takes note of everyone in the room and how they're working on the D-Wheel. It takes her back to her younger days in the Maiami Queens, when she and the other Queens would work together on their motorcycles. They had to trial and error things a lot.
Though she was glad the jet engine was smaller than she initially pictured it.*

Excuse me, you girls are the D-Wheel Research Club, correct?

[redderthanred]

Yes. Can I ask who's asking?

::The purple-red head turns. God. The glasses make her have strong nerd energy.::

[scionofthehypernorth]

I'd like to politely object I'm non-binary.

[sakaki_family_values]

Ah, I apologize for misgendering there. I'll make sure to remember that.

Also, I'm Mrs. Sakaki, your new Principal. I'm just looking to get to know the students around here and your group came up in conversations.

Also, I brought my cat to break the ice.

*She hold up Core.*

[redderthanred]

Oh hey, cat. Cool. I hope it wasn't in a bad way, ma'am.

[sakaki_family_values]

Well, you certainly have a reputation, but, I hear you help protect the school from the various threats it has faced, so for that, you have my thanks.

*She places Core on the floor.*

This is Core, by the way. I'll be using some of my pets as emotional support animals for both students and staff, so you may see them about now and then.

[itkananbe]

::Rolls out from under the bike.::

If at all possible, could you try to keep them aware from here, sensitive machinery and electronics, ma'am.

[sakaki_family_values]

That's no problem. He's a pretty chill cat, but I'll keep him on my lap just to be sure.

*She picks him up again and spotting a chair, she sits down, placing core in her lap.*

So I'm mostly here to get to know you all and for you to get to know me.

[itkananbe]

Kenzaki, Kanan. I'm a disciple of The Temple of the Mandala Manticore, a religious sect in the 12 Dimensions. I came here as a part of a cultural exchange and to keep an eye on a religious prophecy and serve the subject of that prophecy.

[sakaki_family_values]

Oh, that's interesting.
I've never really thought much about what religions are like in other worlds.

It's very nice to meet you, Kanan.

[itkananbe]

Same to you, ma'am.

Technically, we don't worship the Mandala Manticore, that invites disaster. She's close to... what was it, Shiva?
