Oriens Academy [Phoenix Game]

Georgie nodded enthusiastically, her messy hair bouncing around her face, and held the bunny (Shhh Bun, stop your wiggles) out toward the snake-girl to pet. She liked this kid already. Had a good appreciation for nature.


"Yeah! This is Jack. He lives nearby. I'm Georgie, by the way. You must be new here."
 
Skyia enthusiastically starts petting the bunny. " Hi Jack! your so soft~, and nice to meet you Georgie! My name is Skyia and i am a bit new here haha, i actually just arrived right now, and i really have no idea where to go to find what class i'm gonna be taking. I was gonna ask you if you could happen to point me in a direction to ask someone. " Skyia finished with a few more pets on the bunny.
 
"I could show you!" Gerogie said, wiggling a little in excitement. "I'm Official! Well, I'm on the Disciplinary Committee, but mostly I just say hi to new people and I could show you around! This is my fifth year. I know where everything is." She grinned proudly, pulling herself up to her full height. "Just gotta drop Garry here off at his home. He's getting tired."


As if in response, the rabbit hid his head in the crook of her arm and snuggled deeper.
 
"Oooh? " Skyia had said with a bit of relief. " That would be nice! " She said following up with a smile. " But lets go ahead and drop off your rabbit in the meantime, he does look a little tired " She ended with a small giggle. " I hope this isn't rude to ask but could i happen to come along with you to drop Garry off? " She questioned with a small tilt of her head.
 
Georgie nodded, and snuggled the rabbit closer to her chest. "Sure thing! You can meet his family. They're all really sweet. Did I mention they live in the school gardens?" She gestured vaguely out behind Skyia, then started walking down the school's steps. "It's just here, turn off to the left, down this little path. The gardens are the best place in the whole school."


She paused, wondering briefly if she was boring this new kid with her ramblings, and also if she was walking too fast, so she glanced back over her shoulder. "So you're new here, huh? Where're you from?"
 
"Very true." Rilla said turning to watch the girl leave "It'd still be fun though, or at least something to do, especially if everyone's as good as she is." She sheathed her sword, not really wanting to practice anymore. "So if you don't participate in the tournaments what do you do for fun? Other than causing the disciplinary committee trouble of course."
 
Skyia had just moved up a little with a friendly smile and looks up at her and says " I came from Australia, from a more secluded area around there, that's the best guess i can make really, i'm not sure what part of it i just know i really didn't see that much other people until i was moving over here." She moves up to Georgie's side " So where are you from? Iv'e never really someone who looks like you where i came from, in fact i haven't really seen a lot of the kind of people around here with a quick glance i mean. " Pressing her thumb to her lip and thinking a little.
 
"I never said I wouldn't participate in tournaments, there is simply nothing worth in the first place, making a name for one's self is more troublesome than you'd think, still, when I'm not entertaining myself, I am excelling at school work the rest of the time, there's not much time when I'm idle."





She looked at her


"Is combat the only thing you find enjoyable?



 
"Ooooh, Australia." She nodded thoughtfully, even though the giant couldn't exactly remember where Australia was. Georgie shifted the rabbit in her arms (who was now making tiny squeaky-snoring sounds) to free up a hand, which she waved in a vaguely Eastern direction. "Out East, from the Elf kingdom. Lots of Hills, lots of Giants." She glanced down at Skyia, eyes squinting up in the sunlight. "I miss home; there are more trees than hills here, but I make do. The garden helps."


She paused to let the smaller girl enter an ivy-covered archway first, leading into the rows of hedges and winter flowers that made up the school's gardens. Thin evergreen trees, more bush than tree, rose like spires from the left. The path split off in several directions, meandering away through the gardens. Georgie pointed toward the roof of a gazebo, nestled between two particularly large shrubs. "Bun lives over there."

A dark, dragon-y person had been lurking in the shadows for hours. Not in the shadows, in the shadows. Slinking, unseen and undetectable, inside the very shadows themselves. He spent much of the time listening to movie soundtracks from his earbuds, watching students go by and stalking some of the newer ones to see if there was anyone out of the ordinary. Well, out of the ordinary for a supernatural school. So far, he hadn't seen anything that piqued his interest.


So when
Princess Blaire Cross marched past and and her shadow crossed over his hiding place against a wall, the dragon slipped quietly into her shadow. He poked his snout up, just the top of his dragony head, like a crocodile in a lake, and puffed cold air from his nostrils at her ankles.


"Heya, Princess," he slithered, his voice smooth as buttered silk. "Where you off to?"

" Its quite a nice place to live. Just looking at this place feels nice, some nice smells as well~ " Skyia slithered her long body around looking at the various plants. " There's a lot of plants here i haven't really seen though, like these trees, they are kinda thin and really really tall. Pretty cool though seeing different plants over here though, so many new things~. " Skyia moves over and onto the gazebo and looks around. " I'm just gonna take a moment to look a little, alright Georgie? " Followed by a coiling of her tail and sitting onto the coiled stack.
 
"Sure thing!" Georgie crowed. Taking time to be alone around Nature, now that was something she understood 100%. "I'll just be over here."


She moved around behind the gazebo, past the hundreds of hearts and initials scratched and scrawled into the woodwork, and knelt down. Her rabbit poked his face up, glanced around, and jumped from her arms. He twitched an ear at her, then, with a flick of his heels, disappeared underneath the gazebo. Georgie smiled blithely after him. There were no other rabbits around; probably all snuggling up together under the structure for their afternoon nap.



But a winter songbird came to say hello, landing in her hair with a flutter and a chirped greeting, and a red squirrel who lived in the eaves stared down at the visitors inquisitively. Georgie wiggled her fingers up at her in a greeting.
 
The chirp of the bird brought Skyia back from the small trance she had gotten into. She looked over at Georgie and promptly giggled a little seeing the small bird on the giant. " Animals seem to like you huh? " She said pointing at the bird. She uncoiled her tail and slithered over to the side of the gazebo Georgie was closest to. She started twirling around the end of her tail and looks up around the trees. " I'm ready to head out whenever you are Georgie. "
 
Blaire looked over at Corvin but continued to walk without hesitation, sure it would annoy a few people that someone could follow their shadow but Blaire wasn't one to really care about such things.


"I'm going to go see if Rose can have the school do a camping trip or a survival game in the woods, I want to use my bow on something alive," Blaire replied to him as put her bow over her shoulders, her thumb traced the small carvings that she herself had placed in them; they were ruins that were symbols for the elves as well as water.


"What about you?" She asked him with a raised eyebrow, it would be great if her sister agreed to the idea.

Riff smiled at Lily. "Aren't you supposed to introduce yourself first, before asking someone's name? My name is Riffael, though you may call me Riff. May I ask who I'm talking to now? As for why I'm here . . . " He looked back into the room before turning back to the alraune. "Well, I was assigned to live here, however there have been some complications . . . "


"There is a boy here, though I'm not sure if you're referring to him." The demon opened the door up to let Lily inside, waving his hand in much like how a butler would've done. "Though there may not be much time to talk to him. We were about to go to the student council to sort out an issue here."

Vash's eyes lit up as Taka offered to show him to his room. "Yes! Please! I've been walking around for like ever. And Mel would kill me if she found out I managed to get lost already." Vash ran to pick up his bag before returning to Taka. He grabbed the shifter by the arm and began pulling him in just about every direction but the right one. "Is it this way? No, that way? No, this way?"


~~~~~


"It did," laughed Bunny. "But I guess it was m-my fault for daydreaming like that when people are building sets." Her face turned red with embarrassment when she recalled the incident.


It took the angel a while before she understood what Caroline was talking about. "Ah! Right! The waterfall. The lake is probably frozen by now. I don't know about the actual falls, but it gets pretty dangerous with all ting ice and all. One kid was impaled by a stray icicle once. I think I can show you the way. I've only been there once though . . . When the kid got impaled . . ."
 
Azure's adventures through the school ended up not being what he thought it would have been... being far more maze-like to his downfall


"No..... no..... no....."


He ran into another dead end with nothing interesting at all, running trying to escape the palace of perpetual plainness he was trapped in, heading up stairs until he burst his way outside, on top


"Freedom?!"


Azure took a long hard sigh, feeling like he escaped the chaos complex that raveled his mind with its map layout he could not fathom, going over to the very edge of the walls, resting his head on his crossed arms placed on the rail guard, as he looks over the side of the building


"Ah, I think that over there is the gate from where I entered, I knew I didn't need Kylier's help... even if it would have been nice... I just wish I could get some sort of sense of direction from up here... I wish I had of this place, to take with me..."


He then spotted someone off in the distance wandering the school grounds, seeing Mel


"Hmm... must be another lost person... I'd help, but I don't think I'm allowed to climb the sides of the building up and down..."
 
Anya had only walked for a short while before finding another students. One of them was green. Maybe she was an... what were they called... an orc? Probably an orc. While walking closer, her ears perked as she overheard one calling himself "Riff", which she couldn't help but repeat. It was an odd name, but fun to say.


"Riff, riff.... Ruff? Doggy?" she brought a hand to her chin. "Are you a doggy?" she asked the yellow haired boy.


"...And are you an orc?" she turned, and pointed towards the green one inside a flower.
 
"My, my. What a polite young man." Said Lily playfully, as Riff opened the door for her and waved her in.


"This one, at least, appears to be less filthy than some of the other apes."





"Well I won't be too long, I assure you. And who knows? Perhaps I could-"


But Lily was interrupted once again. It wasn't by a gawker this time, though. It was by a... talker. A repulsively incorrect one, at that.


"Another second?" She asked Riff, smiling, before turning to the new girl.


"Oh, but this WILL be fun..."





Lily sunk down to the child's level and, with a smile made of the sweetest nectar, began speaking to her.


"No, no sweetheart. I'm no Orc." She began, chuckling wholesomely "I'm an Alraune. That means that I'm a veeery rare and special plant person."


Her vines surreptitiously made their way behind the girl while she was talking, blocking her escape.


"And do you know what we Alraune do with little girls who mistake us for those terribly dreadful creatures...?" She asked, inching closer to the catgirl.


"Well... we EAT 'EM!" She said fiercely, her eyes glowing red and her teeth bared.
 
"Hmm..."


Knowing how lost he was just now, only being able to find his way to his room thanks to Kylier, he just wanted to be sure, and at the top of his lungs, he bellowed


"HEY!!!!! ARE YOU LOST DOWN THERE!?!!?"


He hoped his echoed loud mouthing reached her


-I hope she isn't deaf... or I'd be just making a fool of myself up here...-
 
"You smell nice." Anya replied to the alraune. "Is it because you're a flower? Is the flower like a boat?"


She attempted to peer over the petals inside. "Is it like a snail's house? I bet it's why you smell good."
 
A slight chill formed in the air as Riff walked around, standing behind Anya now. An unintentional frost covered parts of the floor and vines around him. "Miss Lily, could you find it in yourself to forgive her? She's just a little girl. We are also right in front of the office of the Student Disciplinary Committee. Is there not a better place for these things?"


The demon flashed her a gentle smile. "And such an expression does not suit someone as pretty as you."


Looking down at Anya, he thought over what she had called him. A dog . . . He gave a chuckle. "Yes, I suppose I am. Just a faithful dog to my mistress."
 
"Hey!"


Lily snapped.


"Eyes up here!" She said to the girl, pointing to her own face.


Man, this kid was dense. She was almost certain that she would at least get a jump out of the thing. Cats were jumpy, right? Or maybe some crying. Kids cried all the time.


"Don't you get it, kid? I could eat you."





And then the butler kid just had to jump in and team up to ruin her fun. Sure Riff was polite. Perhaps even... ugh... sensible. But he was no fun.


"Perfect roomie for the king of boring." She thought. "Well, at least he knows beauty when he sees it..."





She retracted her vines, somewhat dejected.


"Yeah, well... I always smell nice everywhere. It's not just the flower." She replied, pouting slightly and bringing herself up to a more appropriate height.
 
"Of course you smell nice! I be it means you're nice, too!" Anya said before turning to Riff. "Which is why you shouldn't be mean to her!" she scolded him, crossing her arms.


"You shouldn't go around making things cold! No one wants to be cold; that's why they invented blankets and hugs! My mama told me so!" she told him. And indeed she was getting cold; which was already a pain considering that it was January.
 
(I must apologize for Mel's rudeness. Though villains are supposed to be mean, right?)


Hearing someone yell, Mel turned her attentions upwards toward a small figure on the top of one of the castle walls. Oh bloody f****** fantastic. Another moronic idiot to deal with. With a snap of her fingers, a large set of speakers appeared behind her along with a microphone. After first setting the volume as loud as it went, she turned toward the boy. "No, I am not lost, you delusional moron. Nor do I wish to associate with someone so incompetent as to not know the difference between a lost person and one taking a bloody f****** walk. So take your false concern and shove them down your pathetic throat, you barmy."

Lily was quite honestly shocked at the turn of events. And she wasn't often shocked. Now this kid was standing up for her because she smelled good.


"Normally the perfume's effect starts out subdues and multiplies over time... is it possible she just likes me because I smell good, and not the attractive properties?"





Lily shrugged, and decided to just roll with it.


"Yeah, stop being mean to me and making things..."


Now that the kid mentioned it, she was a little cold.


"Uh... cold?"


"Well, this kid's smart for an idiot."


Just then, Lily heard a girl cussing somebody out over what she assumed was a loudspeaker. She covered the cat's ears. Even if Lily was a jerk, kids shouldn't hear such things. They would ask questions.


"I don't know who that girl is, but I like her." Lily decided.
 
"GAH!!! loud..."


He covered his ears in pain of her volume, and out of the pain, he fell to the ground, with a harsh ringing in his ears


-..............................................................-


Azure tried to think, but couldn't even hear himself think with all the ringing going on, squirming on the ground with his hands clasped over his ears
