Oriens Academy [Phoenix Game]

Eyes blurred with tears of frustration, Bunny couldn't watch where she was going, running into someone and spilling her envelope and documents around the floor. "S-s-sorry," she stuttered while trying to collect her papers again, a mix of wanted posters and murder articles from the past 8 years.


Looking up, she saw a boy there. She didn't really know him, but she did remember seeing him at the camping trip. Only the first half though. For some reason, he wasn't there after the jewel hunt. "I'm sorry," she repeated. "I . . . I wasn't looking where I was going." She rubbed a tear from her eye with her sleeve.


~~~~~


Currently, Riff and Vash were headed toward the dining hall for something to eat. Mel wished to stay in her room due to a headache and neither really had the courage to convince her otherwise.


Walking backwards in front of Riff, Vash didn't see Skyia and tripped over her tail, falling onto his back with a solid thud. Riff looked down at him. "Watch out for that girl's tail." Vash sat up, rubbing the back of his head. "A bit late for that, dontcha think?"


The demon saw the lamia he fell over and smiled. "Eheh, sorry about that." Riff also turned his attention to Skyia. "Are you okay?"
 
Skyia was suddenly brought to a halt as the demon tripped over, a pain rose in her tail when he fell down, it appears as if he had landed onto her tail, pinching it slightly. It didn't cause any damage to her tail however she felt a rising sense embarrassed for tripping yet another person. She turned her body round to face the two and said.


" Its okay and i'm okay, but are you okay? "


She said to the blond, and white haired demons a little flushed in the face. She wasn't worried so much about herself as much if she had accidentally hurt someone by her clumsiness with her tail.
 
Azure decided to halt his studies for the moment to just check the perimeter of the cafeteria, hoping to get a sense of where Kylier would come from if anywhere after everyone left.


"Hmm..."


As he stood, and looked around, he was suddenly knocked to the floor flat on his front with a surprise assault of papers


"Ugh... huh...?"


Normally he's more aware than this, but looking out for Kylier is priority number one is his book


He rose up off the ground ready to see who knocked him down, when he saw it was someone else, he's not sure where he's seen her before, probably because she never made an impression on him, but he's certain he saw her around the building a few times... maybe even during the trip he had"


"Oh uh..."


The last thing Azure expected was an apology, much less a teary eyed girl, and didn't really want to escalate her sorrow


-I probably should take the subject off of her knocking me over...-


"No its ok, but, are you alright? You don't look to good right now"
 
"I'm fine," Vash said, jumping to his feet. "Mel says I've got an amazingly thick skull." He knocked on his head, as if to make a point. He looked at Skyia for a minute, studying her face before blurting out, "I have no idea who you are."


Riff stepped on Vash's foot, earning a loud yelp from him. "Dude! What was that for?!" But the blond demon ignored him, focusing his attention on the lamia. "I believe Vash meant that we haven't met yet. My name is Riff and this is Vash. And you are?"


~~~~~


Bunny smiled nervously at Azure. "Uh . . . Yeah. I'm fine." She looked back tot he floor, frantically collecting papers and forcing them back into the envelope. "Just a bit . . . down, I guess. It's sort of frustrating when no one seems to be taking you seriously."


Her eyes rose to meet Azure again, though she continued to keep her head as down as her gaze would allow. "Um . . . I'm Bunny, by the way. You were at the camping trip, right?"
 
-No one takes her seriously...?-


Azure looked up at the ceiling behind him for a moment...


"I guess I understand a bit how you feel..."


-Its not like anyone would believe all that my sister had done to me over the years..... and still does... its hard to believe people have the image of a normal girl when they think of her...-



"Ah, that's where I remember you from, it was the camping trip. And ya, I'm Azure, nice to meet you"



-Guess Kylier won't get her way this time with her around-



The way she was looking up at Azure shook him a little bit, he wasn't used to anything being cute. He might have considered Kylier cute if it wasn't for her treating Azure so horribly.


"Here, I'll help you with those..."


Azure squatted down, and begun helping Bunny pick up her papers with her, until the rest of the mess was all cleaned up


"Here's your papers."


Azure handed what he collected over to Bunny


"So, what are these for anyway?"
 
It was just after 5:00 and Lily was done with her classes. She wasn't certain that Rose would want to have a slumber party that night, but she was prepared for that eventuality nonetheless. However, they would certainly be discussing the event that day.


As Lily neared the council room, she spotted Bunny running out the door- bawling like the child that she was. **** she was cute. Annoying, but cute. Lily slipped in the door just after Bunny exited, and looked at Rose.


"Wow, didn't know you were such a heartbreaker. Is this a bad time?" Lily asked with what looked like a sympathetic smile on her face.


I say 'what looked like' because underneath Lily really didn't care much. She was more curious than anything, and that's just because she loved gossip.


Mainly spreading it, but hearing was fine too.
 
"Who am I? Who are you?!" he asked the janitor. "What kind of suspicious character wears a mask sneaking onto school grounds? A stalker? An underpants thief? I'll have you know I don't stand for these shenanigans. Not in any school I work at."


The vampire's eyes were narrowed, his arm swinging to accent his words. He wasn't pleased at the thought of some hooligan sneaking in to eat sandwiches and harass his students.
 
Rose looked up to see Lily, with a hint of stress on her face. "N-no. You couldn't pick a better time, actually."


As she thought back to her conversation with Bunny, she let out a heavy sigh, dropping her head onto the desk. "Was it that bad? I didn't mean to make her cry. It's just . . . She came in here saying that we had a murderer in the school. Even accusing her of hurting another student during the camping trip. But she didn't have any evidence. And the student she accused was a human as well."


"I mean, can you seriously picture a human being able to do so much damage to a demon? And since that boy was the only one hurt, she would've come back unharmed. Crazy, right?"


She lifted her face up, now resting her chin on the wooden surface. "Sorry for laying all that on you just now. It's just a bit confusing. Anyway, you came about the slumber party, right? When did you want to do that?"


~~~~~


Bunny smiled up at Azure, relieved he at least knew what it was like when no one listened. "Nice to meet you, too, Azure."


Grateful for the help, Bunny took the papers from the boy's hands, putting them back where they belonged with a lot more calm than before. Though with the way she had shoved the previous ones in before, it would be impossible for them to stay clean and uncrumpled no matter how carefully she handled them now. "Thanks," she said in a soft voice.


When Azure asked what they were for, her eyes fell to the floor. "Well, they were supposed to be proof that we have a serial killer here as a student, but Rose wouldn't even listen to me, much less look at these."
 
"A uh... a serial killer student...?"


Despite all that Kylier has done to Azure over the years, he knew that Kylier wasn't the kind of person to just kill another. To her, that would be sacrificing one of her own pawn pieces in a chess game, and as a result, was pretty sure it wasn't her.


"Well, what is it you're showing her on these papers, Bunny?"
 
So, Aries had managed to figure out that they had been transported to some kind of dimension where there were a wide variety of races, each with their own kingdoms or areas, and that here, of all places to transport, that humans were a very rare species. Rose had taken them to get enrolled, and had been quickly pulled away by another matter needing her attention. He supposed she must be pretty busy considering her position. Riesa had kicked up a massive fuss about being unable to share a room with each other, but Aries had just told her on the sly that they could just sneak into each other's rooms. It was pretty simple really.


Not like they'd be here for that long anyway.


It was 5pm now in this dimension, and after 'getting settled' in his room, Aries and Riesa were on their way to the science labs. "Ariesss, why do we have to go the science labs? Can't we go explore first!" "By explore, I'm pretty sure you mean cause chaos Ri, and we should at least find where the science labs are before you start exploding things and killing people; which you shouldn't do anyway." "Of course I mean that! And what? I can't even kill people a LITTLE BIT?" "No. Not even a little bit."


Riesa herself hadn't bothered to even check out her room yet, and as they passed through the girls' dorms on their way there she tried to remember which number it was. Had they told her she was rooming with someone else?


(Sorry, life's been hectic lately)
 
Shift started to lean backwards raising his arm in front of him a little from the barrage of questions and odd accusations. " U-uuh, c-could you p-please calm down? " He said in a scared tone, all the while moving he body behind the bench he had been sitting on.


" Y-your working here right, f-from what you said? W-well i'm the schools g-groundskeeper, Shift. A-and i'm no stalker, or underpants t-thief s-sir. "


----------------------------


Skyia giggled at the two a little, it seemed like they had a interesting relationship. " I'm Skyia, its nice to meet you two. Riff and Vash. " She coiled up her body in a large bundle which she kept her body in the center of.


" If i think i remember you two from the scavenger hunt. Which was fun until we all had to go home for some reason, well its not like we were gonna do anything better hmm? Anyway where were you two going to? "


----------------------------


Victor started to move out. Out and onto a couple of boxes and onto one of the trees he climbed and climbed until he reached near the peak, using some of its branches as a way to hide himself. From this position he looked downward towards the campus grounds. Just watching around as people scrambled for lunch. Speaking of lunch he should get something later, but when most people weren't in line. He personally detested lines, all those people pushing up against each other to get food. He didn't like it whenever someone larger than him started to force him up, or whenever there was a strange smell emanating from another. Some that had large body's that would take up all the space and force him out of the building, or to be squished up against them or another.


But for now from this vantage point, he could spot when people began to leave so he could go in there to swipe himself a meal, as well might as well enjoy the view.

"Groundskeeper?" Richter eyed the man. It didn't make sense for some suspicious character to carry around a lunch. And that ladder ran to the roof, not the women's dorms. His story checked out. For now.


"Your story checks out. For now." he stated, adjusting his tie. "My name is Mr. Richter. You may call me Mr. Richter. Just know I don't take well to delinquents and the like. I'm off."


"Oh, one more thing", he smiled, turning back to face the tall man. "If you do see any rulebreakers or some such, bring them to me. If you break rules, you may as well turn yourself in as well; it's easier for both of us. I know a thing or two about disciplining unruly underlings."
 
" Oh i w-will mister Richter sir. " He said in a eager thankful tone with a salute to boot. Shift was one for following someones commands then coming up with his own, he rather trust someone else's judgement for decisions as he would worry for his own.


He turned round to his little container packing it up and started moving out to deal with his next assignment of doing exactly what he just did, on the next building.
 
Bunny stared wide eyed at Azure. "You . . . you actually believe me?" She smiled. "Now if only Rose would take it seriously."


As Azure asked about the contents of the enevelope, the angel stiffened, clutching it closely to her chest. "They're . . . articles about a bunch of murders. All done by a student here. The 'Princess of Lucifer'." She took out the same wanted poster she tried to show Rose. "Her name is Melidianna Lecarde. And I've seen her around campus."


~~~~~


"It's nice to meet you too, Skyia." "Yup. What he said."


As Skyia mentioned the camping trip, Riff thought back to that Friday. Thinking about it, he did remember seeing a lamia there. Vash, however, was drawing a blank. "I do think I remember you. Well, it's nice to know your name now."


The lamia then asked where they were going. Something Vash actually knew this time. "We're headed to get some food. You wanna come?"
 
Azure looked at the wanted poster, and didn't really strike him as anyone to familiar, but was sure he saw her once or twice.


"If you want to hear it from someone who's been dealing with the same situation you are in, people don't accept anything negative about anyone when they already have a mindset of how someone is, true or not..... if that makes sense..."


He sighed and shook his head


"To be honest, its because of the same reason that the person I've been trying to expose to get her off my back for once and all has never worked..."


-And for about a 5 years too...-



"The only way I'd think I would ever prove something like this, would be to catch them in the act by having Rose see it personally without Melidianna knowing, or something along those lines... but if she's been killing people over and over, that's probably easier said than done... in fact, it sounds even harder than what I'm trying to prove and I'm not to sure where to start with this..."
 
The stuff Rose was just... just giving her was way juicy. Way too juicy for gossip. This was something that she could use eventually. Lily scuttled up to Rose's desk, grabbing a chair with one of her vines and placing it next to Rose's. She turned her petals down as always she did when she sat, which made her look more humanoid as the petals formed into a sort of long skirt which covered up her vines, and took her place next to the president. She put on a caring smile.


"Hey... don't worry too much, Rose. Bunny is special- she cries kind of easily, you know? If you made her cry, then count yourself among hundreds of peers at this very school."


Lily put a comforting hand on Rose's back and continued.


"I know you've been under a lot of stress lately. The rest of the council and the disciplinary committee have been kinda slack since the trip, and all that extra work goes to you. There's a lot of weight on your shoulders, so when a student comes in with what sounds like complete ridiculousness... it's easy to get a little upset."


Lily lowered her head to Rose's level, and looked into her eyes.


"Look, I'll take care of it OK? It sounds to me like a cry for attention. If Bunny and I are alike in any way, it's that we're actually pretty popular around the school but we don't have many real friends. I think that when she was asking you to look into a human serial killer with her, what she was really asking for was a friend. My roomie has a similar problem, so I think I'll set up a play date. That should take care of it."


Lily's hand then moved from Rose's back to her hand.


"Now put down that pencil and relax. We're planning a slumber party, so put a smile on OK?"


Things were going perfectly. If Rose didn't completely trust her now, she would by the end of the slumber party. And when that level of trust and affection was reached, she could begin her real objectives.


"I'll make her my pet too... and when I do, I'll have her eating out of the palm of my hand. Perhaps even literally just to show that I can!"





Lily then let out a horrific evil laugh, internally. If she did it out loud, Rose might begin to suspect something.
 
(On my phone right now, sorry if there is misspelling/autocorrect fails.)


Skyia respond with a quick nod saying. " Mhm! " She uncoiled and moved to the side of the two with a little smile across her face. " I was actually heading there myself. Just finished studying for something tomorrow.. "


While beginning to move with them she looked over at Riff real quick seeing that Vash may not be able to answer her specific questions. She still directed it to the two as best she could not be rude to the other. With eager eyes and her mouth slightly opened she asked. " Hey, do you two know if there is a musical class around here? "
 
Bunny listened intently to what Azure was saying but had a bit of skepticism when he commented to how easy it'd be. "I'm not too sure about that. If she hasn't been caught already, I don't think it'd be that easy to get someone else to see her. But I guess that's all I can really do to get Rose to see." She let out a sigh, shoulders slumped and lips pursed in disappointment.


She looked at Azure as she recalled something interesting he said. "There's also someone you want to expose? Is she evil, too? Do you think I can help?"


~~~~~


"Thanks Lily," Rose said as the alraune was comforting her. "It really has been quite stressful lately. Especially with the lack of members showing up lately. Even my sister seems to have dropped off the face of the earth."


The half elf's eyes widened as Lily offered to take care of the whole Bunny business. "Really? You'd do that." She smiled, letting out a sigh of relief. "That'd be a great help, Lily. If only we had someone like you on staff. Someone as understanding and hardworking as you would make a great student council member."


Then talk went to the slumber party as Lily took Rose's hand. Doing as the alraune said, she put down her pencil and anything else that had to do with work. "Okay. So when are we going to do this? I really feel like taking a break from all this."


~~~~~


"Well, we'll be honored to have you join us, Miss Skyia. The two of us don't really share too many interests so conversation tends to get boring."
Vash shot Riff a glare, taking his words to mean that the white haired demon was boring. But he wouldn't say anything in front of Skyia. Wouldn't want to jeopardize a friend making opportunity.


As the lamia asked about music lessons, Riff was first to speak up. "I'm afraid you're asking the wrong person. Music and I don't really mix, so I wouldn't have any idea of any classes. I assume there must be some class, or at least a club." Vash watched the ceiling as he thought, only coming up blank. "Sorry, I'm drawing a blank as well. I take art, not music. Mel might know. She likes music though I don't know if she's actually in a class for it. Do you like music?"
 
"Ya... that's the problem, we trying to do something no one has ever done before..... although... if there are files on her, and a wanted poster, that means someone had to have caught her at least once..."


A dissapointed smirk grew on Azure's face as he continued to think about the situation


"But, if she's made it this far, I doubt she'd be able to just slip up and make a mistake just for us... actually... won't we be putting ourselves at risk if we try to prove her as a murderer?! I mean, a murderer can't just be walking around, but what's the good in two more dead bodies...?"


He came up at a loss of what should be done, as there didn't seem to be a realistic way to handle this, considering he hardly knows her and hasn't so much as even said one word to her


-This seems out of my league, but..... but what's to stop of from killing others..... or me...?!-


Azure shook himself in fear a bit before he snapped himself out of it when Bunny was asking about helping him with Kylier, and looked back at her


"Well... I guess there's someone I want to expose... even if she isn't evil, I don't think she's evil... but I still want to, just for my sake. But, I don't think anyone can catch her, because of her magic, she would be even harder to catch than Melly (pretty sure this would land Azure on her hate list if I used this instead of her name around her). I'd probably be the only one to catch her just because of that..."


He looked down, shaking his head unsure of himself with a grin full of grief
 
(I apologize for not being active on this RP. x-x)


Sayuri was doing her daily walk through the halls, watching for any inappropriate behavior or violation of school rules. So far, she hadn't seen any students who were doing so. As she was walking towards the cafeteria, she heard talking. Out of boredom she decided to listen in on their conversation from behind the cafeteria doors.


"Well... I guess there's someone I want to expose... even if she isn't evil, I don't think she's evil... but I still want to, just for my sake. But, I don't think anyone can catch her, because of her magic, she would be even harder to catch than Melly. I'd probably be the only one to catch her just because of that..."


Thinking that their conversation, or at least the bit she heard, was actually quite interesting, she wanted to see who was speaking. When she looked in, she saw a boy and a girl. Hmm.... What an interesting talk they are having. Perhaps I should join in.





A moment after that thought went through her head, Sayuri appeared in the door way, leaning again on of the sides. "What are you two discussing? Care to let me join in?" Sayuri said, making it sound more like a command.

Skyia nodded her at the two. " Mhm! I'd like to see if i can learn to play something, i don't know what yet just really to see if i like it or not heheh. " she ended rubbing her head a little.


" But thanks anyway, ill still look around to see if i can find a class, it would be nice to do it as a little hobby.~ " She looked over at Vash and brought up a question from her curiosity. " You take art? That's cool, you and good at it Vash? "


She wasn't much of a artist herself, but she still liked to see peoples specific hobbies, She always likes to see what kind of things people's talent could bring. Plus these two seemed kinda nice to her, might as well support what they like to do.
 
Azure noticed that someone else was coming close, wondering what they were talking about, and felt quite defensive about this, but didn't want to make to much of a deal out of this. He wasn't telling to much about his personal problems, but that doesn't mean he is going to simply share his grievances with someone who doesn't know him or understands.


"Er..."


With shifty eyes, he tried to think of something else to talk about that would make sense, but really couldn't think of anything


"I guess... dangerous people we know about... and, sure you can join in... I guess..."
 
Bunny frowned as she thought about how difficult this would be. She then thought about her own objective, her mission. She certainly wasn't sent there just to convince Mel to stop. She was supposed to do something more . . . permanent.


"We could just kill her," she muttered in a barely audible voice. Then realizing what she had just said, her eyes shot up. "Uh . . . forget that please."


After Azure spoke of Kylier, she placed a small hand on his arm. "I can't really do much. But if you ever need help with this girl, whoever she is, you can come to me, okay?" She tried to give him a reassuring smile, though she didn't have the faintest clue what she'd do.


Then someone else decided to join the party, a girl Bunny remembered seeing a few times throughout the school. Her face flushed as Sayuri asked what they were talking about. Her hand receded from Azure's arm to secure the envelope pressed against her near nonexistent chest. "W-what he said."


~~~~~


"Well, it's always good to have a hobby, Miss Skyia. Allows people to see a different side of you. If you wish, I could ask Miss Mel if she knows of any classes. We might also have some instruments you can borrow."
"Like Mel would even share," Vash muttered, earning him a hard kick to the shin. "Z****!*" he shouted, grabbing his leg.


Vash looked to Skyia as she asked if he was any good at art. "Yep. I'd say I'm pretty darn good. Though my painting needs work and I keep smudging charcoals. But I'm really good at sketches and small sculptures. Not sure why everyone is always sosurprised when I say that. They all tend to think I'm some idiot only good at breaking things." He crossed his arms, trying to think why people would think that, apparently unaware of his actions. Things like assuming some stranger had a gay crush on you and then screaming it for everyone to hear wasn't exactly deep behavior.


Riff rolled his eyes at Vash, though didn't see any reason to blatantly insult the boy. Instead, he turned his attention back to Skyia. "May I ask why you're in that form?" he asked, pointing to her tail. "I believe a more humanoid form would be more convenient, right?"


(Vash swears in Russian, but since it's still cussing, I felt the need to censor it anyway. By the way, Riff swears in French.)
 
Sayuri made her way to the two, who now seemed tense, but kept her distance to allow them to loosen up. Politely, she smiled as she tilted her head slightly to the side.


"Shall I introduce myself?" With a short bow, she began her introduction. "Sayuri Tokage, Disciplinary Committee member. Age 19. At your service. My, my. You two seem to get along quite well," she said after noticing the girls receding arm and flushed face. She looked at them both, as if studying them. Every once in a while, she ran a hand through her hair to push back her bangs.
 
"Maybe....... I'll let you know though....."


-What was it she told me to forget though, I didn't hear her.-



She looked at bunny for a moment before turning her attention to Sayuri


-She seems pretty formal...-


Azure would normally respond with such formality back, even if he is a bit weak in that department, but he wasn't to keen on the idea of telling people his last name if he didn't have to, since he really wanted to help separate himself from his sister, at least so that they can get to know the real him without them asking about her or anything


Then again, if he was being approached by someone of the Disciplinary Committee all of a sudden while they were talking about dangerous people, it probably means that they are in trouble, and are to be questioned about this, or at least in his mind


"I'm er..... Azure.... Age 17, uh..... student of this school..."


-I really don't want to get into trouble just because I open up a bit...-



Azure was also a bit surprised at what she was saying about how they got along..... as if she was implying something, and as a small grin grew on him, unsettled by this, he looked over at bunny, and saw her flushed face, and became embarrassed with a matching grin thinking that she was calling him out on this


"Wait no, uh?!"


-Whoever this person is... she's a professional......... reminds me a bit of Kylier...-



"Uh, so..."


He wanted to say something to move the conversation along, but, there was nothing really he wanted to talk about, and didn't want to risk making the situation worse, and simply just stood there, waiting for Sayuri to speak, anxious of what she wanted
