"I can control animals, make them do whatever I want. I can also understand and talk to them, and vice versa."


Sam grinned, "That sounds like fun, " he said. he had always liked animals, and he had seen all manner of rare and hard to find creatures in his travels of the globe. They usually seemed to like him, relatively well, although nothing special. To talk to then, and to understand them, though, sounds pretty great, although he wouldn't give up his power for the world.


"It's not a bad power, you see, it's kinda cool even. I just wish it didn't have...manifested so soon. Though I hate to admit that it might have saved my life. It's... Complicated."


"Complicated?" Sam asked, "Hey, you know you can trust me right, I wont tell anyone if you want to tell me." He was telling the truth, there were few things Sam stood by with much passion, but keeping promises was always one of them. He watched, somewhat concerned, as she visibly picked up the courage to continue.


"When I was a kid, 5 years old to be exact, me and my family were at the beach in Recife, a Brazilian city, but we were swimming at the dangerous part of the beach. And then a shark appeared, I couldn't move so I stayed there, watching it approach me. I screamed. And it stopped. It said..."Hi. I'm sorry, I didn't want to scare you." And then it was gone. After that I started understanding every animal, even insects! They would talk to me, so I would talk to them. It was the most normal thing to me. Apparently, the others kids didn't think the same thing."


Sam nodded with what he hoped was a sympathetic and understanding expression.


"When I was 11, these...boys from my school... T-they were holding.... They were holding Ed, a stray cat, but my best friend. And...and... They... They killed him!"


"Wow, that sounds, uh, really rough, " Sam said. It really did, to have your best friend, even if they were a cat, killed in front of you, would be horrible, he couldn't imagine what it would be like. Sam glanced around the room to see if anyone was listening as her voice became loud, but nobody seemed to be listening. "Hey, hey, look, uh, its ok, ok, don't worry about it." Sam wasn't very good at being comforting, or at least he didn't think he was, but it looked like Raph was revealing a lot right now, so he did his best.


"Sorry 'bout that."


"No, no, not at all, it's fine, just so long as you're ok." Sam hoped he didn't sound weird. "If you want, you can carry on, although I will understand if you don't."


"Anyway, I don't remember much of what happened next. But I remember my hate being passed on to cats and insects and... I'm pretty sure that was the first time that I had controlled animals, not just talked to them. I'm not pretty sure in what theory it fits though. Maybe I'm just special?"


Sam smiled in response, although something seemed a bit wrong, as though she was holding something back. It didn't really matter, Sam thought, she would tell him if she wanted to, it wasn't his place to pry.


"Hmm, yeah, I'm not sure what that category that would fit in. Uh, maybe contact with the Otherworld, like maybe it was like a magical shark or, uh, something. " Wow, that sounded stupid, way to go, Sam. "Anyway, I guess there isn't really any way to know for sure."

Mars chuckled lightly as Lyra removed the hair from the front of her face. It wasn't particularly funny, just that it was a different hairstyle than he was used to seeing her have. Though he never really judged by looks, he did have opinions from time to time on the subject, and this style gave here a more mature look than her normal pigtails. He never really noticed it before with his whole confusion of emotions, but now that that was out of the way it was hard to miss.


"So you know where Blake and Veronica could be? I haven't seen since the tea-party. . ."


Mars shook his head and shrugged. "No idea. Everyone went and did their own thing after the event and that was the last I saw of them. I don't recall either of them mentioning anything going on, and I try not to delve too deep into their personal lives so I couldn't hazard a guess either. They're probably just sick or tired or something like that. I don't know about Veronica, but Blake's probably just late again and not showing up." Mars silently smirked at his jab at the absent student secretary. Even without someone to throw a comeback back at him he still couldn't resist. Clearing his throat, Mars continued. "You know Veronica better than I do, so I have no idea. Anyways, if you're that worried, then you can always send a text and inquire about what's going on. You'd need to do that anyways to inform them that the student council meeting is cancelled, so why not do both at the same time? "

"We have about fifteen minutes left, so I just want you all to meditate. Clear your mind, dissolve into your mat. . .relax. . .breathe. All of that good stuff."


Almost over, already? My, how the time's flown by. Cylva leaned forward slightly on her mat, her hair falling forward around her face. She crossed her arms, feeling the crystals encasing each of them, as they rubbed against each other. Clear your mind... she slowly let go of everything that was bothering her. Every worry she had, she was able to forget. She relaxed, and took deep breaths, feeling the air flowing through her lungs, and exhaling it slowly.


Cylva finally reached a point where she simply wasn't thinking about anything. She'd reached a level of relaxation she hadn't in a long time. Though she hadn't been thrilled to attend school here, she found she was actually enjoying herself. Hey. Stop. She suddenly realized she was thinking. Exactly what she wasn't supposed to be doing. Again, she concentrated on her body, feeling the natural rhythm of her form as she inhaled and exhaled. She released a particularly deep breath and slowly opened her eyes, meaning to check the time. As her eyes peeled open, she caught site of her arm, and with a start, realized it was actual skin. She glanced at her other arm to confirm. The crystals had receded, for the time being. She gasped in shock, and turned to Gwen, softly nudging her. "Gwen! Psssst! Gwen!" Most of the other class members appeared to still be meditating, and she didn't want to disturb them... but her arm was normal! She could barely contain her excitement, and had to show someone, right this second!

"Hmm, yeah, I'm not sure what that category that would fit in. Uh, maybe contact with the Otherworld, like maybe it was like a magical shark or, uh, something. ; Anyway, I guess there isn't really any way to know for sure."


Rafaela grinned at that. Wow, it would be really cool if that shark was sent to wake her powers. Like in the movies. She just wished that shark hadn't come so soon. "That would be pretty cool."





Raph turned her eyes to the clock, she spent too long talking about her own powers. It's Sam's turn now. She picked up a red notebook and a pen, soon writing on a empty page "Sam's Powers and Stuff". She grinned at her calligraphy, she had improved a lot. The letters were big and round, though a little bit rushed.


"'Aight, Sam. Your turn." The brunette looked at the boy with excited eyes, eager to know more about him. She loved that, knowing about people, she loved how everyone had their special little quirk, their own smile, look. It was all so fascinating for her, how different everybody was. It's what made meeting new people exciting for her, you will never know these special things about someone unless you talk to them and get to know them. It's just like an adventure, you never know what you'll encounter.

Although that was Luke's opinion on the eerie plain they had visited this morning earlier, it was from that of the voices that spoke and spoke inside his head. One was laughing at the sheer lack of activity within the domain of the Otherworld, the others was just waiting for something, anything to pop it's head up. Nonetheless, the latter personification was not happy with the Irishman's display of power during the training exercise. Regardless, Ms. Chime had instructed the entire class to relax and meditate for the last few minutes, which placed an imaginary question mark above his head; how does one relax, when you can't get all of him to be quiet? Luke dug around in his head for a few moments for the answer but the only solution that came to mind was the one where he would just talk to them. At least then they wouldn't be interrupting him as he tried in vain to soothe himself. So, this began his attempt at striking a conversation with the bona fide, albeit far from good in faith voices.


Well, trying to relax with you two around is like trying to...I don't even know! he thought with a subconscious smirk, So, here I am talking to you lot for the first time in, arguably forever. So whether this becomes a regular thing, I have no idea. So get talking lads, because you're sure as hell not going to let me.





Indeed we won't let you have a word because you stepped into our domain so you did! Our little circle of Hell you did, an unforgiving place it 'tis! How foolish were you in wisdom, that even the fool is more prudent then thee! How'd you like that for something such as myself, sounding as if I were touched by Wisdom's hand herself! Ahahaha, anyway, you're here because you're not able to relax, is that it? Well, I sort of deducted that from what you had said a moment earlier but WHY IS IT, that you can't? Don't tell me...it's because of us?!...I know it's us because you said it's us! Hah, now, what we can talk about is that dismal display at the exercise this morning! Now that sure was far from being exemplary now was it?! But you have your excuse since it wasn't night time but STILL! You have to find a way to make your powers grow, make them evolve! Otherwise, you'll fall behind everyone else; you wouldn't want that now would you?





You are stronger the you actually believe yourself to be. You need to find yourself.


Y-you're right, I'll do better next time...





(As per usual, if you feel like replying to this, I'd appreciate it. I feel like a free agent of sorts!)

Maria Scarlette


Maria looked around the room - No one was staring daggers at her, from the looks of things, which was good. Well, that's good, at least. I expected a worse reaction. Out of curiosity Maria scanned the room - There were still a number of people in the class she didn't know. It felt uneasy, almost, to be in a room full of people she was so unfamiliar with that she didn't even know a lot of their names. She didn't plan to learn a lot of their names, either. Some of them looked flat-out unwelcoming, which she didn't like, while others looked friendly, obviously. However one stood out to her, a boy that sat on the mat behind her. He had what she had grown to know as a thousand-mile stare: Blank eyes staring directly forward with seemingly nothing in their focus.


"Hey, are you all right?" Maria whispered and turned to face the boy, a concerned look on her face. "You look a bit troubled... Can I help you with anything?" Maria's silver eyes glimmered with hope for a moment. Am I making a friend?

"We have about fifteen minutes left, so I just want you all to meditate. Clear your mind, dissolve into your mat. . .relax. . .breathe. All of that good stuff." Oh dear. Oh... Dear... This wasn't good. From past experiences, he knew that he was baaaaad at meditation. Really, really bad. He got a bit nervous, now that that was what they were supposed to do. He folded his hands and leaned forward onto his crossed legs. 'Dissolve into your mat'?.. That sounds weird, but it might just work. He closed his eyes and tried to imagine that, to get a feeling like he dissolved into the mat. It seemed to be working, he was calm, and his mind felt quite blank. Just to see if he could do it again, he opened his eyes and broke the magic.... Aaaaand realized that he was covered in his own metal, and it must look like he was being murdered. He mumbled a silent "Whoops." and made it all disappeared. There was enough metal that the short effect of it looking like it was leaves in the wind before disappearing happened again. He looked at the effect, and got an idea.


He opened his hands, still with them locked together though, and looked at them. He concentrated on that effect he gets. Maybe.. Well, it was stupid enough that it might even work. He took a deep breath and closed his eyes again. He did the same thing again, but this time he made sure to make all the liquid disappear instantly... It must've looked like black rain was rising from him and turning into dust, but it was the only way he knew that kinda worked. He breathed out. Using all this metal was draining him, but keeping calm like this also seemed to... Help? Even if this maybe wasn't a very good way to meditate... Doing this would definitely increase the amount of metal he could create, and maybe even how fast he can make it. Interesting.

Meditating? Gwen knew she was awesome at doing nothing. Not a problem in the world. Unlike Geno, she'd actually listened to that monk they had around for a while, instead of telling him off. She calmed down, and entered a deep meditation. She kinda liked it as a matter of fact, she just never did it on her own, since she usually had better things to do, and- "Gwen! Psssst! Gwen!" That was about the last thing she expected. Cylva seemed like more of a teacher's pet, rather than someone who would start talking in the middle of meditation.


Well, her concentration was broken anyway. She looked at Cylva with a bothered/surprised look. ".. What? What is it?" She wanted to get back to meditating, but Cylva was cool, so she couldn't just ignore her. Maybe it was something important, and she knew for a fact she wouldn't want to be ignored herself in that case.


(Short, yeah. Sorry 'bout that.)

"'Aight, Sam. Your turn."


Sam grimaced. Raph looked like she was looking forward to hearing about him, with her notebook ready, but to be honest there wasn't much to talk about. At least, not much he was willing to talk about.


"Uh, well I'm afraid I'm nowhere near as interesting as you are, " He said, with a laughing tone, "I don't actually know where I got my powers, to be honest, I know I wasn't born with them, that's for sure, but I still got them before I was old enough to remember. One of the first things I remember was being 'rescued' by the fire department because I had ended up at the top of a really tall tree. " Sam grinned at the memory, visualising it in his head. "I didn't used to be able to teleport like I can now, though, back then all I could really do was about one hundred meters, max, and that was only when I was really relaxed and didn't move for like, an hour or something. "


"So, uh, yeah, sorry to disappoint, but in terms of how I got my powers, I'm actually just as clueless as you. Even my mum says she wasn't sure when exactly I had gotten my powers, as it took a while for it to be noticeable, at first I was just shifting, uh, like a couple of centimetres or something and people just assumed they had had an odd moment. Not until I was teleporting onto tables and stuff did they actually realise I could teleport. " Sam felt kind of guilty. Raph had just told him every detail about how she got her powers, but he didn't know enough to reciprocate. Hopefully she wouldn't mind.


"Anyway, I reckon what's really important is what's happening now, and I know my powers are still developing, the other day, I accidentally teleported a pebble on its own, I didn't even go with it. That seems like something that would be really cool if I could, uh, you know, learn to actually use it properly. "

Anthony was listening to the professor with such intense feelings of enlightenment that after Liam had finished he stood. "I propose a fourth theory. I believe a goddess or god may have made the monster which in turn has genes. Upon producing offspring with the human individual those genes were passed causing what we see here today." Anthony spoke with such certainty that he didn't even breathe while he spoke. However there was a undertone of worry as he wondered if somebody would throw something at him.


"Sorry sir." He stated before sitting down to feel his wrist throb with every pulse of his vain his head beginning to match it throb for throb. "Sir may I head to the nurse." Or at least that was what was supposed to come out but it was all jumbled and some people were more focused on his compound fracture anyways. He was bleeding like a stuffed pig with a slit throat hanging upside down and he had been doing so for a while. A bone fragment had pierced the skin on his wist bad and forced his brain to put the adrenal gland on overtime so he didn't feel it. Anthony had just enough time to watch his vision go blurry with black dots dancing in it to black as a unlit dungeon.


Thunk! His head bounced off the desk and he slumped to the floor leaving specs of blood on his paper and a growing amount on the floor. His breathing was shallow and his blood was trying it's best to clot but he still wasn't doing to good but stubborn as ever he got up and was basically sleep walking as he stumbled towards the nurses office. He didn't bother yelling since it was a waste of energy and he was already running on fumes anyways and also some students were yelling outrageous claims already by calling him a zombie or a demon just because he was extremely bloody and kept nearly tripping. He literally burst through the front door and hit the floor of the nurses office. "Hope it's not... a very long wait." He muttered with a smile before his head hit the floor with another thunk of epic proportions.

 

[Larry]

Luke's attention snapped from the mental mutterings inside his demented head, to the inquiry of a woman behind in utter regards to how he was doing. He was happy to see that someone was concerned for him although misplaced consideration. When you have multiple personality disorder, this kind of things tends to happen. But he must have been doing something that aroused her attention or maybe, lack there of. The Irishman man must have realized that he was staring off into nothing, blank the only thing in sight. Typical Luke Bell that was right there, but in the end, it was typical wasn't it? But was he supposed to tell her? That he was fine when he was more or less likely becoming just as insane as the entities that took refuge in his mind? Or inform her that he wasn't and explain his dilemma to her? So many questions, so little time to answer them. I'm perfectly fine, he thought, a smile breaking onto his face in realization, In reality, speaking to them feels strangely natural in brutal honesty. Even if all you're doing is conversing with warped versions of yourself, normal all the same. And so his mind was set about telling his peer of his mood at this particular moment in time. That he, himself, the man, the legend, Luke Bell was completely, utterly, absolutely FINE.


"I'm grand now, thanks for asking," he expressed in gratitude, "Just doing a bit of talking amongst myself. Well, not really with myself but with, myself. I have DID, dissociative personality disorder if you didn't know. So, speaking amongst myself is speaking with my...selves if that makes sense. Can't imagine it does but when your stuck between two minds quite literally, not an awful lot is!"


There we go, put it as eloquently as I could.





You're about as elouquent as fool trying to make himself look like a sage!

~Rafaela~

​

As soon as Sam started to talk, Rafaela listened as she summarized what he said on her note and added little comments. She couldn't help herself, she wasn't a quiet listener.


"Uh, well I'm afraid I'm nowhere near as interesting as you are, " Raph rolled her eyes at that. Everybody was interesting in their own little way, that's what she believed anyway.


"I don't actually know where I got my powers, to be honest, I know I wasn't born with them, that's for sure, but I still got them before I was old enough to remember. One of the first things I remember was being 'rescued' by the fire department because I had ended up at the top of a really tall tree. " Ok, that must've been hilarious. Imagine that, little Sam at the top of a tree. Hilarious. "Looks like someone here thinks he's a kitten." She joked more to herself than to anybody else. Then why make a joke to herself? 'Cause Rafaela is a god damned talkative person, so she felt obliged to say that, but she didn't want the professor hearing her. If he did, it wouldn't be hilarious anymore.


"I didn't used to be able to teleport like I can now, though, back then all I could really do was about one hundred meters, max, and that was only when I was really relaxed and didn't move for like, an hour or something. " Yo, that's pretty cool. That's what she thought, and that's what she said. "Yo, that's pretty cool." Yep, she was feeling poor on her words.


"So, uh, yeah, sorry to disappoint, but in terms of how I got my powers, I'm actually just as clueless as you. Even my mum says she wasn't sure when exactly I had gotten my powers, as it took a while for it to be noticeable, at first I was just shifting, uh, like a couple of centimetres or something and people just assumed they had had an odd moment. Not until I was teleporting onto tables and stuff did they actually realise I could teleport. " Raph rolled her eyes for the second time that day, both of them with Sam. She stopped writing on her notebook to stare at him with a grin she was trying to contain, she couldn't not imagine the people's face when Sam teleported onto tables. But that' s not what she wanted to mention. "Look, don't say that. You're not disappointing, ya know. This isn't a movie, where the heroes get their powers awesomely. This is real life. And real life is dull." She said grinning before going back to writing.


"Anyway, I reckon what's really important is what's happening now, and I know my powers are still developing, the other day, I accidentally teleported a pebble on its own, I didn't even go with it. That seems like something that would be really cool if I could, uh, you know, learn to actually use it properly. "





"Heck, that's awesome! Maybe it's a new technique or somethin' like that. You should give it a try once more, it seemed like it could be really useful. And about the theory, maybe... Genetics? No, you weren't born with them. Or maybe you were, but they only manifested later in your life. I can see that happening. It kinda makes sen-"


Thunk! Rafaela was interrupted by the sound of something falling or hitting against the floor or something like that. She turned to see a boy walking like a zombie towards the door, she was about to call him, but he had already left. She frowned deeply. The boy was bleeding, it seemed. She turned to look at Sam, the frown still on her face. "You think that Zombie Boy will be fine? He seemed pretty... Living Dead to me."

[AshenLily]

".. What? What is it?"


Cylva gestured down at her arms excitedly. "They're normal!" Giddy with excitement, the words came out louder than she'd meant for them to. She quickly looked around the room to see if anyone else had overheard, but it didn't appear as though anyone was terribly interested in the conversation they were having. "Meditating did it!" she spoke in a hushed whisper now. "I just completely cleared my mind, and when I opened my eyes, the crystal was gone!" It never occurred to Cylva that the other girl might not be as excited about the crystal disappearing, as she, herself was. After all, why shouldn't she be? This was the best thing to ever happen to her! If she could control this enough to just make sure that none of the crystal ever showed, she could return to being normal... suddenly, a thought occurred to her. Do I even want to be normal, anymore? She hadn't really considered the question before. After all, her entire reason for coming to this school, was to master her ability, so she could control it enough to hide it, and carry on with a normal life.


Cylva found herself thinking back to the incident in the forest earlier. Though she'd meant to restrain the creature, she couldn't help but admitting how pleased she had been, to see the damage she'd caused to it. If she could do such a thing without even really knowing how to use her abilities, what would she be able to do when she'd mastered them?


The thought both pleased, and scared her. Though she hadn't meant to kill the creature, it had been invigorating. She couldn't deny the fact that having the power to take the life of another creature was exciting. Frankly, it was the most alive she'd felt in years. The thought scared her, as she wondered what was going on in her head. I enjoyed it... did I subconsciously want to kill it? Is that why that happened in the forest? The idea troubled her. She didn't want to hurt anything. Did she?


Pushing the troubled thoughts aside, and turning back to Gwen, she continued whispering again. "I know you said you hadn't been able to do much with your powers, either. Maybe meditation will help you, too." As excited as Cylva was for herself, she couldn't help but be excited for her friend(?) as well. It didn't occur to her that it might be better to stop pestering Gwen, and instead let her meditate, to see if she was able to gain anything from the experience, rather than chatting to her about her own experience with meditation.

"I'm grand now, thanks for asking, just doing a bit of talking amongst myself. Well, not really with myself but with, myself. I have DID, dissociative personality disorder if you didn't know. So, speaking amongst myself is speaking with my...selves if that makes sense. Can't imagine it does but when your stuck between two minds quite literally, not an awful lot is!"


"Oh? Interesting. What's your power?" Maria's curiosity seemed to be getting the better of her - She wanted to know some of these peoples' powers, as she didn't think she had asked many people what theirs were. "If it makes you feel any better, I can tell you what mine is." She wasn't sure whether she liked her power or not. Yes, it was cool to live for a long time. Yes, it was cool to have a world of opportunity. But at the same time, she couldn't do anything here. She stuck out like a sore thumb - Living long was all she could do, whereas a lot of the people here had versatile and useful powers like...


Well, she didn't know. Maybe I'm just thinking too much... OH, GOD, WHAT IF HIS POWER IS MIND READING?! What if he's been listening to all my thoughts?!

[Larry]

"Oh? Interesting. What's your power?"


"If it makes you feel any better, I can tell you what mine is."

​

"My power? Well, compared to anyone else here, I feel like a villain of sorts," he laughed, a smirk playing on his face, "I can merge with shadows, I can travel through them, that sort of thing. However, this morning I manipulated a shadow into a body of sorts...even if it was highly deformed. Missing a right leg and a left arm to it t'was. You might call it a shadow person or whatever they're called. Well for all the heroes here, I suppose being the bad guy puts a bit of order on the whole proceedings no doesn't it?"


Luke felt he was speaking his mind here when he uttered his statement. What it was about being a bad guy that felt so natural, any notion in his head was there by chance and not conjured up his subsequently cluttered head. But with such a shady ability, it would be hard to see him as anything more then a bad guy. He was from being Batman in the city of Gotham, a millions miles away from being like Superman or any superhero for that matter. Actually, he remembered such an instance from his childhood that made himself out to be a bit of an antagonist. But he couldn't think of all the details, other then he would be 'The Wolf' that would go around chasing all the other children, a position that he seemingly never relinquish. Those were the days that I barely remember, he thought with nostalgia, They called me Big Bad I think, something like that, good times...As he finished the last of his tea, the taste being rather to his pallet, he turned around to the woman that struck up the conversation in the first place.


"If you wouldn't mind me, could you tell me your power? I'm not trying to be nosy, but it would be interesting to know. Better out then in as I always say! But if you don't feel like telling me, that's fine too. Wouldn't want to be too nosy now would we?"


Yeah you would! That's why you're bloody asking!


We'd know how to use it against her, that's why.

"My power? Well, compared to anyone else here, I feel like a villain of sorts, I can merge with shadows, I can travel through them, that sort of thing. However, this morning I manipulated a shadow into a body of sorts...even if it was highly deformed. Missing a right leg and a left arm to it t'was."


Maria was amazed. Why does everyone have cool powers except me? Maria sighed mentally. "You made shadows into a body? Really?" Maria inched closer to the boy - She was interested, very interested, in what his power could do - She wanted to find out more... But it felt incredibly nosy to ask more. I think I'll let him ask a few questions, Maria thought, Then I might be allowed to ask a few more questions of my own after. It's only polite, right?


"Well for all the heroes here, I suppose being the bad guy puts a bit of order on the whole proceedings no doesn't it?"


Maria got to thinking - What was she, then? Was she one of the 'heroes' or one of the 'villains'? Her power didn't necessarily have a moral standing, but she did. I need to give this more though later... But I'll probably forget. My luck, I suppose.


"If you wouldn't mind me, could you tell me your power? I'm not trying to be nosy, but it would be interesting to know. Better out then in as I always say! But if you don't feel like telling me, that's fine too. Wouldn't want to be too nosy now would we?"


"No, no, don't worry about being nosy!" How hypocritical of you. "You told me your power, so I should tell you mine. right?" Maria thought, for only a moment, about how she would explain her power. "I was born on the year 1016. If that doesn't explain things well enough - I'm 998 years old. My power is that I have an incredibly long life, and I'm expected to live for much longer as long as I don't get myself killed by someone. I stopped aging physically around 12, too, which was a bonus."


Now that Maria thought of it, this was the first person Maria had talked about her power to, wasn't it?

"They're normal!" Gwen was confused. What was she talking about? "Meditating did it! I just completely cleared my mind, and when I opened my eyes, the crystal was gone!" "What?" She was utterly confused, until she realized that maybe the girl couldn't remove her crystals, until now. "-ooohh! You couldn't remove your crystal until now? That's great!" She could see how having a crystal arm could be a problem, and was happy that she'd reached something in the meditation. It hadn't helped her yet, even though she enjoyed it. She remembered her arm from this morning, the field trip, and just now, before they started meditating, and suddenly it made sense to her.


Strange how she could've overlooked something like that. She looked down at herself. She supposed she should consider herself lucky that she only had steam, she didn't have to mess with being stuck with a crystal arm for life. "I know you said you hadn't been able to do much with your powers, either. Maybe meditation will help you, too." She looked back at Cylva. "... Yeah, you're probably right.. It might."

~Attention~


~Classes are now over. If it weren't for the current circumstances of me being sick (once again), being super tired (I just pulled an all-nighter at a lock in), and having to sleep all day to be energized for my late night babysitting job, I would make posts replying to everyone who has written something for me and roleplayed Crysta and Liam dismissing classes. I hope you all understand and won't hate me too much! I will try to post tomorrow, please be patient with me!~





~I apologize for the inconvenience.~

"I was born on the year 1016. If that doesn't explain things well enough - I'm 998 years old. My power is that I have an incredibly long life, and I'm expected to live for much longer as long as I don't get myself killed by someone. I stopped ageing physically around 12, too, which was a bonus."

​

Luke was surprised by the gift that she held, that of partial-immortality. Although it wasn't something that was very effective during combat or any battle capability at all, he still found himself fascinated by such a power. She has lived for nearly an entire millennia, he thought to himself with a rather apparent hint of bewilderment and intrigue nestled on his face, The amount of things she must have heard or witnessed...is astronomical; a power not great for battle, but a power great for the world. To live forever must be a great thing in Luke's mind, but he imagined that it could get dull very, very easily. The heartbreak that you probably endure as the people around you rest while you continue to live on with no choice saddened his heart to some extent. Would she have gone through that? Has, she already gone through it. Luke contemplated for another moment before a mental chastisement came roaring down on him. Of course she would have, how could she not? She more or less likely went through it. So after a time, would she go through that loss again with friends she makes right here in Hawthorne? Well if that was going to be the case whilst the Irishman being one of her companions, Luke was damn well sure that he was going to do or make something that she going to remember him by. But that begged the question, what exactly would that be? Well after conjuring that deformed body today, maybe he could create a mini-version of himself using the dark? But if it steps in the light then it's disappeared completely, also the fact that it disappeared after a few moments mean that it wouldn't last long either. A sudden notion just struck him, why was he thinking so hard about all of this? He had only met the woman a few moments previous, yet he was thinking of something that stay on after he was long since deceased?


But the announcement that class was finished only served to damper his deliberations on the subject.


"Well, I still don't know much about my power in honesty," he laughed, placing his rather light bag with a hefty sigh on his shoulders, "But your is amazing! My God it's simply extraordinary! You're arguably the most interesting person at this entire school! The amount you must know must be...overwhelming! I'd love to talk to you some more if you'd feel up to it. I'll be at the sports club for an hour now so afterwards club activities are over, would you like to chat a bit more? Sorry if I seem incessant, I just get excited when I have a friend, so much so that I might seem extremely possessive."


Indeed he was just that. Luke would nearly growl at people when he was younger if they such much as approached his friends, even if it was with good intentions; well he imagined in his mind that he did. He couldn't why he felt this but it was yet another one of his strange characteristics.

~Professor Crysta Chime/Professor Liam DiFranco/Professor Giovia Eriwind~

​

After Crysta had dismissed her class, she almost immediately went into her office. She fumbled around with her cell phone for a moment, her hands shaking terribly. The pain in the woman's skull that had started out as just a small headache had slowly throbbed into a full on migraine, one bad enough to make her want to throw up. Something was wrong. . .VERY wrong. After what seemed like forever, the woman was finally able to send out a quick and simple text.

To: Kinya, Xavier, Liam, Giovia


Subject: (no subject)


my office come quick please hurry


Message Sent

Crysta was about to make herself a cup of tea, but decided that it probably wasn't wise to work with scalding hot water when she was so disoriented. Instead, the woman plopped down on one of the piles of pillows she had and rubbed her temples. It wasn't long before Liam burst into her office, and exclaimed quite loudly, "What's wrong? Did you find something out?"


Cringing, Crysta held a hand out to him and squeaked, "Liam. Headache. Quiet, please."


Liam quietly crept over to Crysta and knelt down, giving her an apologetic smile, whispering, "Sorry. . .but. . .did you find something out?"


Crysta put her forehead on her knees and muttered, "Tea."


Liam immediately rose, making his way over to Crysta's tea-stove and putting some water on. It didn't take long for the other professors to arrive, each entering with the same loudness as Liam, who shushed them all one by one. Kinya and Giovia both sat beside Crysta, each trying to comfort her and figure out why she'd texted them. Xavier arrived last, and everyone shushed him before he could even say anything.


After everyone got settled in and Crysta got her tea, the real discussion began when the woman stuttered, "It's inside."


"What's inside?" Giovia asked, gently touching her friend's shoulder.


"That. . .thing. It's inside Hawthorne." Crysta stammered, flinching away from the Healer's touch and standing up. She drops of tea splashed out of her cup due to how shaky she was, and she squeaked, "It's here. I know it it. It got back in."

Maria Scarlette


"Well, I still don't know much about my power in honesty, but your is amazing! My God it's simply extraordinary!" Maria blushed a bit. She liked this, being complimented - And while it was about something she couldn't control, it was something nice. Being complimented was something that seemed to be happening more and more frequently since she came to Hawthorne... Maybe being here was better than she thought, not only for developing her abilities, but for her ego, too, so long as she didn't let things spiral out of control. "You're arguably the most interesting person at this entire school! The amount you must know must be...overwhelming!" Interesting? Me? He's talking about the person that still finds enjoyment in reading Dracula for the 23rd time, Maria thought. And thinks sewing a new dress from scratch is fun.

"I'd love to talk to you some more if you'd feel up to it. I'll be at the sports club for an hour now so afterwards club activities are over, would you like to chat a bit more? Sorry if I seem incessant, I just get excited when I have a friend, so much so that I might seem extremely possessive."

Yes! I made a friend! "All right," Maria agreed with a smile. "I'll probably be in my room while you're at the sports club - So maybe we should meet somewhere in between. Or maybe you would want to come to my dorm, or for me to come to yours?" It was incredibly convenient that they couldn't meet and talk right away - The next hour would be spent making herself look and feel perfect for her new friend. She would have a shower, do her hair and put on something nicer than what she was wearing for school - Which she was sure she would have the time for.

(@Larrylycan - Sorry I wasn't very quick with my response. Is this all right?)​

Mars began placing his books back where they came from as class was ended. As he put his things away, he paused as he saw his battle techniques notebook resting inside of his bag. He remembered that he wanted to talk to some of the new students and introduce them to the school as well as add them to growing list of potential opponents. Training was another possibility, as felt that perfecting his ice techniques would really put him a place above the rest, at least much higher above the rest than he already was. Furthermore, there was that case he'd received from his father the other day that he wanted to do some more research on. However, Mars had already decided he was going to have dinner with Lyra and see what he could do about this feeling of his. It seemed like a good idea to just get it over with, plus putting off yet another thing involving Lyra would probably send a bad message.


Closing up his bag and standing up from his seat, he turned towards the student president and stretched his arms behind his back. "Well, no use worrying about Veronica and Blake at the moment. A simple text should be all that is necessary. They'll be fine, I'm sure of it." Mars did a quick scan of the room on instinct, still speaking as he did so. "So, how do you want to do this dinner thing? Did you want to go right now when the clubs would be going, or wait an hour and meet up later? Unless you've changed your mind, then we don't need to decide, do we?" He scratched the back of his head as he awaited a reply. He was hoping that she didn't cancel it, but he wouldn't say that out loud. There were quite a few things that Mars liked to keep to himself, one of them being minor grievances over something. He was never a very sympathetic person, so he didn't want to seem whiny to others.

Anthony sat in the grass near the tree he had first met the girl with the crystal claws. His face was exceptionally pale and his wrist had a bandage and a cast on it leaving one hand immobile at the moment. He was in some pain but not a whole lot due to some medication they had given him for the swelling and it was working. Anthony gave a deep breathe and then stood using his power to make a katana so he could practice.It was a very unconventional style but he was capable of hitting the metal target he had made even when facing the other way. He however got tired quickly and started to look for the others he had met earlier mainly the girl with the crystal claws.

"So, how do you want to do this dinner thing? Did you want to go right now when the clubs would be going, or wait an hour and meet up later? Unless you've changed your mind, then we don't need to decide, do we?"


Lyra shoved her notebook and pen back into her bag as Mars spoke, thinking about how frantically Liam had shuffled out of the room only seconds after class had ended. She heaved her bag over her arm, and then glanced up at Mars, saying, "Yeah, we can go now. Let me just send out a text to both of them, alright?"


Pulling out her phone, Lyra felt a pit form in her stomach when she saw that her mother still hadn't texted bit. Letting out a short sigh, she simple began to compose a message to her friends.

To: Blakey-Boo, Veronica XOXO


Subject: Student Council Meeting is Cancelled


The subject says it all.

The girl then dropped her phone back into her bag and grinned at Mars, saying, "All taken care of! Now let's go eat while there's no lines!"

 

[Dead]

After she fainted at the sight of the beast, Calista returned back to her normal routine but a heavy weight fell over her. She was pretty down in the dump for being so weak just before they even got to fight and what was worst was that she made her partner be alone to fight it, Calista feeling all the more guilty and ashamed,"What a useless partner I am... If it was a serious situation then he would have..." Calista thought, her mind trailed off not wanting to think of Tekis as weak as her but she was put with him for a reason so she needed to be useful somehow. Aimlessly walking around the schoolgrounds, Calista had missed most of her second class since she fainted but luckily was let off for today.


Staring up at the sky, Calista sighed and looked around her before taking her glasses off to wipe them of the fog, placing them back on. Letting out another sigh, Calista went off to the school's art room that she recalled was located somewhere in the school's campus, confused where she should go as she found herself lost in the hallways,"Umm... it's that way right?" Calista thought going deeper into unknown places before she knew it, she was lost endlessly in a corridor of hallways that all looked the same to her,"W-where do I go?" Calista mumbled now scared and praying to god that someone would find her.


-This is to who wants to save Calista since I'm too lazy to put details -

After the little fight, Shinji felt bored out of his mind,"What some useless waste of time! That thing was so weak that I only used such a small amount of my energy or more the less None! I could have spent that whole time with Blake... I knew we should have skipped." Shinji complained in his mind, running his fingers through his hair frustrated at how pathetic the monster was. Shinji expect more out of it but it was only just some mindless dummy that Shinji could just rip with his own bare hands without giving much thought into it. Shinji was pretty annoyed by it but at least he had some time off now but... what could he do now?


Shinji couldn't text Blake since Blake seemed to be busy with his student council things and Calista passed out during the group assignment. Geno was somewhere that Shinji didn't know of and Shinji mostly didn't pay any attention in his second class since the old man was pretty boring in Shinjo's opinion and it seemed he lost a few screws in his head. Shinji couldn't help but feel his mood worsen, remembering about the school's garden and sighed,"Maybe I could just cool off there... no one really goes there anyways." Shinji thought walking off to the little garden, entering the quiet sounds of nature and the beauty of many plants growing among many other.


The place was really something with all the colorful flowers and the tranquility that could sooth Shinji's mind and soul. Taking a seat under a tree, Shinji decided to take his afternoon nap, stretching his arms out and enjoying his time alone thought it did feel lonely without Blake, Shinji didn't mind much, his eyelids shut closed and everything censored out of his mind with only the sound of nature's music surrounding him.


-Like for Calista, you can apporach Shinji as well since like I said, I'm lazy for details ._.-

Tekis smoked in the school halls as he saw his partner who had fainted wondering around. Calista was it? it has to be her, the glasses.. Yes. Tekis walked up towards Calista and tapped her on the shoulder. "Calista, what are you doing wondering around the halls alone? You seem lost". Tekis' eyes never broke eye contact as he stared at her, analysing her emotions. His face was cold, mouth was a tight line. Why is she wondering the halls all alone, shouldn't she be resting after the event? The halls were darker than usual, Tekis didn't pay too much attention to this however it did seem a little odd to him


Tekis sighed, "It's not my buissness, however I do think you should not be wondering the halls, especially after what happened. You need rest, or meditation. I happen to meditate every day to maintain my power so I won't faint in practice, or battle." Tekis took out a cigarette, lit it and started to puff on it, blowing smoke away from Calista's face to be respectful.
