Academy for Rejected Souls (Multiverse, OC)

Location: Infirmary


Who I'm with: Why'nn and the nurses


What I'm doing: Training


The monk nodded as her anger built. 'You go to anger, is that what drives your determination?' Watching her fidget with the straps he considered releasing her. "This test had to happen, in order for you to become my apprentice." He stood and began loosening one of the straps holding her to the bed. "Had you not passed you would've been killed and raised as an undead minion to serve in the headmistress' army." He spoke in a calm and matter of fact manner as he continued to loosen straps. 'If you are going to strike out I do not hold it against you.' "The reason I did not simply train you is, I can train anyone. But I choose you to be apart of something greater." Delrick looked to her to see how she reacted.
 
Location: My Dorm


Who I'm with: No one


What I'm doing: Relaxing


Xiao Ling found her dorm room and opened the door. "It does seem as though I am alone...Not that it matters much as I am a Child of the Moon as my mother likes to say so I would only cause problems," She thought out loud. She sat on her bed and tried to gather questions for this Selune. She finally gave into laying down and simply staring at the ceiling. "Class is going to be rough tomorrow..." She said covering her eyes with her arm.

Who I'm with: The sensei and the nurses


What I'm doing: Learning


A cold realization washed over her at his words. Undead army? She fought the impulse to dart away. "Army?" 'Something greater? Mistress, what did you send me into?' As soon as the straps were loose enough, Why'nn took the opportunity to roll away from the sensei and off the bed. The impact with the floor sent pain tearing through her, but she didn't cry out. 'I won't be part of this! I escaped one psychotic lich, I refuse to bow to another!' Gathering her strength, she sprang toward the door.

The monk watched as she rolled away and off the table. 'This is to be expected.' He let out a sigh and shake of his head as his apprentice ran to the door. "Stop." He spoke the command calmly, but with firm emphasizes that left no room for misunderstanding that it was a command. Delrick walked over to her side. "You will be help lead this army and restore order to the chaos of the multi-verse." He did not raise his voice, just gently placed a hand on her shoulder. "Do not fight the compulsion, I do not wish you use it."

Who I'm with: The sensei and the nurses


What I'm doing: Trying to get away


Her body halted immediately at the command and she let out a cry of anger and frustration. No matter how hard she tried, she could not get her body to move from this spot. His words were paramount in her mind and she hated it. Unable to take it any longer, she turned and swung at him. 'I didn't ask for this! I don't want to be part of this!' She swung again, her eyes squeezed shut. "What right do you have to command me?! Who said you could do this?!" 'I want to go home!' "Let me go! Let me go! I do not care if you have to kill me, just let me go!" Her tears flowed freely and she had not stopped swinging.

What I'm doing: Training


He expected her to fight it, she would not succeed, but he expected it none the less. 'This is the very reason I choose you, you will never give up.' He easily stepped away from her blind wild swing. "What right? I am you master, you teacher. That is my right, we all must serve someone." The teacher let the strident swing blindly, her attacks her fueled with anger and frustration. Seeing the tears flow down her face be decided to not command her again. "When your realm kicked you out or sent you away they gave me permission. You did not end up here by chance." The monk stepped into her punches, his right hand deftly grabbing her left wrist, wrapping her arm around her neck as he moved behind her. His other hand grabbed and pinned her other arm across her chest. His grip wss like iron, the arm across her neck would slowly tighten, cutting off air as he slowly lifted her off the floor. "Let you go? You have nowhere to return to. Your realm does not want you." Throughout this whole exchange his voice never rose, nor displayed any anger. Delrick remained calm and relaxed. 'Do not fight me or the binding.'
 
Location: Infirmary


Who I'm with: The sensei and the nurses


What I'm doing: Failing


Why'nn struggled, but the growing suffocation rendered her weak and her body slowly lost its fight. She hung in his arms, body limp, gasping for air. She could not fight any longer. 'She lied to me. She lied...' She stared down at the floor, her vision darkening. "Does not want me," she repeated, voice breathy and barely above a whisper. "She lied." Without the energy to resist, she stopped moving. The tears stopped. Whether it was the slow constriction of her windpipe or the gravity of the situation, her body was going numb.

Who I'm with: Why'nn and the nurses


What I'm doing: Training


Feeling her body relax and go limp, the teacher slowly lowered the student to the floor, releasing tension on her windpipe. "Realms and universes can sense when something does not belong, or is too dangerous, and so it sends them away." Guiding her back to the bed he shifted to let her sit on the edge of the bed, though he did not release house grip on her wrists. 'Your mistress lied to you? What kind of mistress would do that? It serves no purpose to lie to those who serve you.' Looking at her he spoke with authority, but did not command her. "Why'nn you are here now, and you are wanted here. This is where you belong." He used one hand to lift her chin to look into her eyes. "I am not, and will not lie to you."
 
Location: Infirmary


Who I'm with: The sensei and the nurses


What I'm doing: Trying to accept


She let herself be guided, did not struggle as she sat on the bed or as he lifted her gaze. "But they made me," she protested weakly. "They made me this way. If I do not belong... why would the Forgotten One let me exist?" He wouldn't know. The sensei wouldn't know. Why'nn did not struggle against him. 'Can I trust him?' The depths of emptiness she felt within herself was reflected in her expression. In one day her entire being and purpose was shattered. She did not know where her purpose was anymore. "What do you wish me to do?"

He nodded slowly. 'So you are a creation, that is why you were sent away, and why you have such a connection to your god.' "The forgotten one, may be you god I your realm, and still is here. He did not create you, his greedy servants did; and sometimes mortals try and outstrip their bonds and surpass what they cannot comprehend." He let go of her other wrist, but kept her chin in his hand. Seeing her utterly broken he did not smile. "I want you to grow stronger and become better. Do not fight the binding and learn at my side." He stood and folded his arms over his chest. 'How will she react to the knowledge her brother is here? Was he made as well?' "Do you still wish to follow the forgotten one?"
 
Location: Infirmary


Who I'm with: My master and the nurses


What I'm doing: Accepting


Her hands fell to her lap. She understood the command and did not attempt to steel her mind against it, rather she accepted it and drew it into herself. At his question she looked away from him. Her god had always been her safe place, the one being she could always trust. When she prayed to him, meditated on his teachings, or read his words she felt empowered. He was integral to her existence. But why hadn't he protected her this time? Yet, as she thought about him and considered her options she felt warmth flow through her. "Yes." She turned her attention back to her master, conviction in her gaze. "Even if I serve you as my master, I wish to serve my Lord as well. He has protected me to this point, it would be... wrong to abandon him." Remembering the sensei's earlier words, she nodded. "He would wish order brought to the chaos."

Why'nn


Location: My Dorm Room


Who I'm with: Some girl
@NekoNekoNyan


What I'm doing: Being very still



Why'nn had returned to the dorms shortly after her binding. The night had not passed smoothly for her. In the baths, she'd filled a tub up with water as hot as it would come, scalding herself, and attempted to drown. She cursed her body's push to live. Even after the experience, she did not feel right, however.



When she returned to her dorm room, finally, she found there was another girl in it as well. She'd been alone when she left that morning. She hadn't spoken to the girl, she didn't even know if the newcomer had noticed her. Instead, she'd hidden herself under her covers and curled up into the fetal position. She hadn't slept that night.



Morning found her staring blankly at the underside of her covers, emptiness threatening to overtake her. Today, first class, she would have to see the sensei again. Her chest ached and she glanced down at the bandaged site.
'I just want to go home...' She wiped at the tears that weren't yet falling from her eyes, then hugged herself tighter.


The school's bell rang out, noting the hour. She wanted to die.






Nishira


Location: My office


Who I'm with: No one



What I'm doing: Relaxing



Things were going well. Finally, Delrick had found a suitable apprentice. Finally, she felt she could move forward. The monk's reluctance to take a direct student had always bothered her as she desired her instructors (at least those she had let in on her little plan) to create a legacy. This legacy would make it so much easier for her later plans.



Smiling, she held a cup of tea in her hands. She didn't
need sustenance any longer, but it was always nice to enjoy a warm beverage in the morning.





Valian


Location: Main hall


Who I'm with: No one in particular



What I'm doing: Eating breakfast!



Even though the first day had been a bit rough for him, Valian was glad for this new day to dawn. He hummed to himself happily as he pulled the wrapper off of a warm muffin. Taking a bite, he considered trying to greet some of the other students around him. Despite this being his third year, he'd never quite made any real connections.

Location: Dorm Room


Who I'm with: Why'nn


What I'm doing: Getting up


Xiao Ling rolled over and rubbed her sleepless eyes. She had heard someone enter which meant that she wouldn't be alone but then again she could have been imagining things. She wasn't quite sure. She stood on her feet and yawned. "Well, I guess I should go talk to the person in charge and explain things properly since last night was kind of a bust," Xiao Ling said heading for the door.
 
Location: The Hallway


Who I'm with: No one


What I'm doing: Going to the main hall


Brutus was still confused on where he was going but figured he would find the main hall eventually. "I wonder if I can start a petition to get a map" He mumbled to himself and kept walking. 'I'll find it eventually'
 
Why'nn


Location: Dorm room


Who I'm with: A girl


What I'm doing: Making some sort of movement


She heard the other person get up and speak. Carefully, she peeked out from under her covers. She hadn't actually seen the other girl the night before. The girl looked petite, a bit on the adorable side. The girl's hair was strange, tipped in white. Why'nn stared at her. Only the top of her head and her eyes could be seen peeking out of the covers. 'She looks nice. But I shouldn't talk to her.' Quickly, she pulled the sheets back up over her head. 'I'll just wait for her to leave, then I can get dressed...'


Calar


Location: Hallway


Who I'm with: My brother


What I'm doing: Trying to find the main hall


"It's morning, so we should eat something, especially if we have a full day ahead of us." Calar tucked his hands into his pockets and glanced at their surroundings as they walked. "Really a drab place, isn't it? Are you even listening to me?"


Illn


Location: Hallway


Who I'm with: My brother


What I'm doing: Ignoring my brother


Illn was in a foul mood. Being intimidated by a bitch was not on his list of prideful moments, and whoever it was had scared him away from his sister. As Calar prattled on, Illn noticed another student ahead.
 
Location: Hallway


Who I'm with: no one


What I'm doing: locating the Main Hall


Xiao Ling had walked or rather wobbled down the hall. She nearly fell with every step. "I'll start with a cup of warm Darjeeling tea...then I'll find the person in charge," She said. She looked around with bleary eyes. Xiao Ling eventually found a group of students and decided to blend into the group. She followed them until she found the Main Hall. She looked around and shielded her eyes. "So bright.." She said as she stumbled towards the tables. "Tea. Where is the tea?!" She called out.
 
Valian


Location: Main Hall


Who I'm with: No one in particular


What I'm doing: Responding to the shouting girl


A girl was shouting. Valian raised and eyebrow and glanced over his shoulder at her. She looked... drunk? Drunk or sleep deprived. Either way, his chivalrous instincts kicked in and he jumped to his feet, going to her side to support her. "Hey, you okay?" He guided her toward a chair. "I'll get you some tea if you want. What kind do you like?"


Why'nn


Location: Dorm room


Who I'm with: No one


What I'm doing: Getting up


As the other girl left, Why'nn pulled herself out of bed. Her chest still hurt, but she dressed slowly and dutifully. Shivering as she slipped into the uniform skirt, she really wished she'd be able to change her uniform. She pulled on her boots and laced them up, then gingerly grabbed her bag and swung it over her shoulder. "Lord Jergal, please protect and guide me this day," she prayed, clasping her hands together.


After this she headed for the door.
 
Location: Main hall


Who I'm with: a boy


What I'm doing: sitting in a chair


Xiao Ling blinked. "Darjeeling..." She responded before yawning, She had no clue who this guy was but she was grateful to finally get a cup of her favorite tee. Not only did it give her energy, it reminded her of her long gone grandmother. Perhaps she could trust this person. "Thank you...I don't know your name."
 
Valian


Location: Main hall


Who I'm with: A girl


What I'm doing: Getting tea


"I've never heard of that, but I'm sure they have it. Wait right here!"
He rushed to the counter and procured the tea. He thanked the worker, then returned to the girl with the tea. "Here you go!" He handed her the tea, then sat down beside her. "Heh. I'm Valian! What's your name?"
 
Location: Main hall


Who I'm with: Valian


What I'm doing: Enjoying my tea


Xiao Ling inhaled the scent of the tea. "I'm Xiao Ling. I was told that I'm supposed to become the next moon goddess...though most seem to not believe that fact," She said before taking a sip. "It's nice to meet you." She could feel energy return to her body and she looked slightly better though she knew it wouldn't last forever.
 
Location: Main hall


Who I'm with: Xiao Ling


What I'm doing: Talking


Valian let out a laugh. "I don't think it's that they don't believe you, I think it's mostly that we're all from different worlds and universes. So you may well be the next moon goddess in your world, but most of these people will never be impacted by that." He shrugged and picked up his muffin.
 
Xiao Ling pursed her lips than returned to normal. "I'd forgotten that part. Though, honestly, I'd prefer if its forgotten. It's a lot of responsibility and I'm not to good with a whole list of things. I'm better off doing one things at a time. Anyway, what's your story?"
 
Location: Main Hall


Who I'm with: Xiao Ling


What I'm doing: Talking


Valian sighed. "You know..." he shrugged, "pitchforks, torches, angry villagers. The whole 'oh no! That boy has powers! It must be the work of demons!' thing." He chuckled and shook his head. "So I got shipped off here."
 
"Wow. Well, I nearly killed all my maids..They all said my abilities were out of control. So, I can't go home." Xiao Ling said nonchalantly. "Not that I want to."
 
Location: Main Hall


Who I'm with: No one


What I'm doing: Sitting down


Brutus had finally found the Main Hall, and he went, found a table and sat down. "Not a lot of people here, wonder if they all got lost... (he chuckled at this and clicked his mandibles) I wouldn't be suprised."
 
((@NekoNekoNyan It may seem inconsequential now but please continue adding the Location, Who I'm with, and What I'm doing to all your posts))


Location: Main Hall


Who I'm With: Xiao Ling


What I'm doing: Talking


He nodded. "Nah, that happens to all of us." Valian sighed. "Well, supposedly this is gonna be a new home for all us rejects." He saw a few more students enter. "So... what's got you so riled?"


Location: Main Hall


Who I'm with: My brother


What I'm doing: Networking


Illn moved away from Calar and toward the strange looking boy. "You look pretty strong," he grumbled. The creature had clicked its mandibles and that had caught his attention. "What's your name, stranger?"


Location: Main Hall


Who I'm with: No one


What I'm doing: Being as unnoticed as possible


The small girl entered the main hall, attempting to be as small as possible. However, as she was dressed in black and the walls were stark white, she stood out a ridiculous amount. Her eyes were cast downward and she moved along the wall, trying to stay away from everyone else. She didn't desire any food, but she knew she should.
