It was a peaceful, sunny day at the Xiaolin Temple, and a new monk was to arrive there shortly. Liam had been walking down the path he was informed of, carrying a few belongings in a nap-sack and looked up at the cloudless sky. He loved days like this, nothing but peace and tranquility. It wasn't long until he arrived at the gates of the temple, and he was uncertain if he was supposed to just walk in or wait.

Roy Heart, slowly walked to the gates. Closely followed by a juvenile white tiger. He tied a red headband to hold his long jet black hair out of his face. Looking up with yellow, cat-like, eyes he gave a small smirk. Walking down the temple’s stone steps to meet Liam as the white tiger wait at the top. ”Hey there, you must be Liam right? I’m Roy” Roy greeted Liam. He knew he was the youngest ‘Dragon Master’ and could probably be mistaken for a student himself. But he did not mention that much, and carried on leading Liam inside.

Upon waiting the few short minutes, Liam soon heard foot-steps and looked at a man who looked like he would be in his early-20's and noticed the white tiger. Upon being greeted, Liam smiled and spoke in response. "It is a pleasure to meet you Roy." he spoke with a sincere tone. He was relying on his knowledge to remain polite, as he read a book on proper speaking when it came to meeting someone new. Following Roy, he did not bother to ask if he was another student, or a teacher, but that was not his question to ask.

Roy kept a smile as he lead the way into the temple. Passing the white tiger Roy’s gloved hand stoked its face as he walked past. As if the large feline was on a leash, it followed after the two of them as they entered the temples walls. Roy walked at quite a relaxed pace toward the bedrooms where Liam and others who were yet to arrive would be staying. As he lead on the Yin-Yang symbol on his back was the most defining about his whole wardrobe, it seemed to turn up quite a lot around him. Roy glanced over his shoulder ”So, you excited about the training or anything?” he asked, trying to make some conversation.

Thinking about what this new training would consist of, Liam looked at his surroundings, taking note of the white tiger. As he followed Roy, he was soon questioned about whether or not he was excited about the future training. Excited? He never felt that, nor did he believe he could anymore, but he had to keep the conversation going. "Well, more or less...I'm sure everything will be worth while." he stated with a sincere and honest tone.

With a small smirk Roy looked back over his shoulder as he spoke confidently ”It won’t be easy, that’s for sure. But I’m sure you and me both will gain a lot from the training.” Leading into the temple building containing the bedrooms, Roy slipped to one side against the wall to allow Liam to pass him. The white tiger sat outside on the stone ground. Yellow eyes watching the two inside.
Roy nodded towards the section that would lay claimed to Liam’s personal space while he was here. It was only the basics of what someone would need. That was what Roy was already used to, but he knew it might take a while for him and the other dragons to get used to. This is your new home... For now. Roy stated, still pretty confident but not making it totally clear if he was a student or not.

Liam's footsteps were as silent as a pin dropping onto the ground as he was lead to the make-shift bedroom. Having seen which one was meant for him, he nodded and smiled. "Thank you." he stated politely. Sure, it was very basic, but he didn't mind one bit. Placing his nap-sack near the mat, he stretched a bit and realized something. "I do not mean to be rude, but may I ask who the other students are?" he inquired, as he didn't know if Roy was one or not, but had to make certain.

Kimi walked through the gates slowly being followed by the orange and black bengal tiger. Her black hair felt really heavy as she walked and she almost tilted to the side and fell. She kept her steady pace and entered the temple staring about. Her hands in her pockets and the music playing in her ears. She looked around at the chimes and statues. She looked up slowly too see two men standing talking and she stared for a while.
Her bengal tiger nuzzled her leg and started maneuvering through her legs. She kept staring her blue eyes glazed with curiosity she took one deep breath and opened her mouth.
"Hey" she said.

Roy watched Liam and answered his question ”I don’t know where the others are...” He was sure not to define his ranking just yet, he was going to keep his charade going as long as possible so everyone would be comfortable with him as a friend. Rather than a teacher.
The white juvenile tiger that was waiting outside the building growled seeing another feline enter the grounds, standing defensively the red material collar swayed as he stood. Roy stepped outside before the young girl could speak and looked towards her with his yellow, cat like eyes. Looking at the white tiger made him be quiet, as he stalked off towards the temple garden.
He watched as the tiger walked hesitantly away before turning his attention back to the girl ”Sorry about that... He doesn’t like other animals walking into the temple.” Roy apologised taking a few steps closer to the new arrivals. ”You must be one of the other students right? My name is Roy heart, and yours?.” Roy was a fair few years older than her and Liam, yet he was still friendly with them. That’s what was so confusing about his rank at the temple as student or master.

Rimi glared at the other tiger before settling to sit beside Kimi as she rubbed her head. Kimi stared at the other tiger and then felt her daze being interrupted by a voice. She turned her head slightly to stare at the person before her. She stared as he talked and then turned off her I-Pod.
"I am Kimi Kitsune" she said her eyes shifted back to the other tiger.
She scratched Rimi's ears and watched as the tiger growled at Rimi. Rimi nuzzled her head into Kimi's thigh. Kimi stared at Roy and then turned her body to face him fully.

The young man removed his bomber jacket since he knew it wasn't necessary at this point in time. He stretched a little before seeing yet another tiger and a girl. He didn't speak however, as he once read that it was not the right thing to do if someone interrupted another's conversation. He neatly folded the jacked and laid it next to the nap-sack before joining Roy and Kimi, but made it as if he was just admiring the scenery, which was true.

[[Thought I'd try to shake things up a bit and enter. I know my character isn't even approved just yet, but hey, no harm no foul, right?]]
Sauntering lazily toward the temple with his fingers interlaced behind his head, Sayid stared upward with a listless look about him. He hadn't even stepped foot into the temple and was already growing impatient with the concept of training in such a remote place. He had been walking for a while, without giving much thought to his surroundings, so when he finally dropped his arms to his sides and looked forward, he was surprised to see a female walking with a tiger a few dozen yards ahead of him.
'Is that..a tiger? What IS this place...?'
Continuing onward, but attempting to keep his distance, Sayid's attention couldn't help but shift to the girl accompanying the overgrown cat. Even from so far away, his shameless style commanded that he admire her, up and down. Of course her feline companion would keep the hormone-stuffed teenager at bay, but Sayid could only hope that he would have a better oppurtunity to pursue this girl he hadn't even met or even gotten a decent look at. As the girl and her pet entered the temple, he hastened his pace a little to keep up. He entered behind her just as she introduced herself to the person he assumed would be greeting them. Sayid walked beside Kimi, but was sure to stand on the side away from Rimi and a few feet away at that.
"Kimi, is it? I'll have to remember that..." Sayid said, using all his best quirks and indirect moves, giving her 300% eye contact. He even went so far as to run his hand through his short hair, sprucing it out a little.
Sayid only then gave the temple itself a quick glance over, shifting his attention to the male.
"I guess it'd be stupid to ask if this is the place...are you Mr. Miyagi?" Sayid snorted a chuckle at his own joke.
