(Yeah... I wasn't sure where to post this, but since Shiro's technically a scientist already, he shouldn't be stuck in the Earth Kingdom. This also makes things easier. =D Sorry this was late; I missed the update. ^.^ Shiro studied the ceiling above his head as he laid in his bunk, bored. He'd taken off for the day, determining (of his own volition) that he'd contributed enough to the project for the day. The other scientists were getting on his nerves, what with their excitable whispering with how the end of all their efforts was nearing. While he seemed apathethic to the experiment and many of his fellow scientists reasoned this was simply because he was an impudent child with no knowledge to speak of, which was so not true, he was actually quite excited about the results. They were going to make benders. It was enough to bring out the true, more eager, kid-like personality in him, who greedily grappled at the chance to see if his impossible dream could indeed come true. Allowing a small smile to briefly crack his emotionless mask, he closed his eyes and imagined the endless possibilities...

Roi was annoyed. He was going to become a bender yes, but the man told him not of a place to stay. So here he was, a fire nation royal nephew walking door to door for a place to stay. 'So degrading.......' He thought as he knocked on the door of another person. (Your house) To go from either sleeping in either of two houses to have to ask someone to sleep for a few days, was embarrising to him.

Shiro heard the knock and briefly entertained the thought of not answering. It could either be a scientist sent out to bother him about leaving early or Professor Seishin, of which he'd get into major trouble if he didn't answer.
Sighing, Shiro hopped off the bed and opened the door. "Yes, what is it-" He paused at the unfamiliar face. Looking over the boy with bored, grey eyes, he noted the wealthy, fire nation clothing and affronted, dignified expression.
"Who are you?"

A boy who seemed a couple years younger than him opened the door an looked bored, which made Roi annoyed almost enough to punch the boy. He looked like many of the high class royals of the fire nation when talking to people in general. He hated that look. "Roi," He said in a haughty voice. "I just wanted to know, if you knew of anyplace I could stay here." Roi had a buisness like look on his face. He wanted to get this over quickly.

"No, not really," Shiro answered readily enough. He didn't believe he liked the stranger's tone but was so used to it with the other scientists lording over him with their superior ages (yet inferior minds) that Shiro simply couldn't muster up enough energy to really care.
"Now, ...Roi. Why are you here? And are you even aware of what exactly 'here' is?"
Professor Seishin had never brought over monetary contributers to the actual lab and Shiro was curious as to what this boy's purpose was.

Roi sighed, this was becoming taxing. He halfway wanted to just go back to the Fire Nation and come back when the machine was finished. But that would be wasteful, for he could only spend a few days in the fire nation. " I'm here to become a bender, and here is Michu Run, a metal wasteland in the middle of nowhere. Why, are they kidnapping people?" Roi looked curious, if they were it wouldn't effect his decision to stay but it would be interesting to learn.

Oni arrived at the housing area on her father's dragon moose. Noticing a couple of people standing around talking, Oni decided to make conversation, and perhaps find out more about this place. As she approached, she began to realize they hadn't even noticed her, so she decided to address them.
"Sorry to interrupt, but I'm new to this place. Ya think ya could fill me in on what I'm supposed to do around here?
She said as she hopped off her mount.

'Another one?'
Shiro turned to the girl, dismissing the boy for now. "Well, that depends. What are you here for? Are you a scientist or an experimental guinea pig, like this boy here?" He gestured to the boy in question.
The sudden explosion of new people in this dull place really did mean the experiment was nearing solid results. It excited Shiro greatly, but he didn't outwardly show it, presenting a disinterested face to the newcomers. He'd wager this girl was also a bender hopeful.

Roi turned around to see a girl dismounting on a moose dragon. Roi felt certainly annoyed. " That's exactly what I want to know...." Roi said with no expression in his voice. Roi sneered at the small boy. " Don't use that tone on me, shrimp!" Roi face showed anger, but he quickly adgusted it to a buisness like face. " Now, can you direct me to someon who might know other thatn the crack pot scientist in the tower."

Oni looked down to her feet, partly in anger, mostly in shame. In the fire nation, she was renowned as a skilled martial artist, and deadly assasin. Here though, she was nothing more than another experiment. Oh how Oni couldn't wait to gain her fire bending power, she'd set this place ablaze first chance she could get. "An experiment, I guess you could say. Although I must warn you, call me any type of animal again and it shall be at the expense of your life." Oni said, with a mocking smirk on her face.

Shiro crossed his arms, leaning against his doorframe. "Hmm, fair enough I suppose. Though, threaten me again, and I may accidentally-on-purpose mess up your experiment."
He sighed, stuffing his hands in his pockets. "Since you two are the experimental subjects, I guess the only things you need to do is excersise a bit everyday, eat appropiately, just generally keep your health up. You might go through a bit of an ordeal when we experiment on you."
He studied the sky. "The chance of surviving is also quite low..."
Shiro didn't know why he was trying to intimidate the subjects; he was sure many scientists would have been appalled at the risks he was leaking. But, he supposed he was a bit jealous. Despite all the dangers that he clearly knew, he still wanted to risk his life to become a bender. It was a bit ridiculous, but true.

Roi snorted on the boy's weak attempt at a retort. 'Yeah right....' Roi was tempted to leave but he felt he might as well gain as much as information as he could. "The professor already told me that, and tried to scare me off as well...Do you have any interesting information?" Roi was bored, he wanted to relax by practicing his martial arts.
Roi turned his head and studied the girl, she was about his age, wearing a white kimono with pink lacing and she looked attractive to the young man. He also noticed the bow and (AHH I Can't think of the right word.....) arrow holder. "Why do you carry a weapon, you know that the battle field is no place for a woman who can't firebend."

Oni gritted her teeth at Roi's remark. If there were on thing she hated the most, it was being judged by her gender. Oni considered herself equal to any man, if not better than most. She approached Roi, in an intimidating manner.
"How about I prove to you how I fair in the battlefield." She said, drawing bow and arrow.
It had been a while since she had any target practice, yet Oni was hesitant to put her chance at becoming a bender in jeopardy.

(It's quiver, by the way. XD)
Shiro watched the pending conflict with a barely suppressed smirk. Even he knew better than to insult a female with a weapon.
"If you do indeed fight, make it quick and don't injure yourselves," Shiro interrupted. "It would be a hassle if you weren't up to full health the day of the experiment. Other than that, have at it."
He sat back, prepared to watch the fight, if there was one. He was internally rooting for the girl; the rich boy was a bit too haughty for his liking.

(( Ok thanks XD. OH and before I forget Roi has a double bladed staff on his back. Just wanted to inform))
Roi smiled. His favorite pastime was making people mad. "Gladly..." Roi said happily as he walked about 15 away from the girl with the bow. He slowly pulled out his double-bladed staff from his back. He shifted his body stance sideways from the girl making a smaller target, and put his staff in a defensive position. "I won't be hurt, I assure you that." he boasted, flaunting his abilities. 'I have to get in close quickly, or she'll demolish me with that bow of hers.' "Shall we begin?"
