Oriens Academy [Phoenix Game]

Well, that was a rather odd speech. He seemed fond of whatever power Azure must have. Then he put that threat of expelling him if he didn't show up to his class. A really, really odd teacher then.


She jumped a bit when Azure suddenly yelled out and started running out of the room. He must really want to stay in this school... wait... didn't he just wake up? Wait he shouldn't be moving around yet! She thought to herself and began to chase after him, plus, he did invite her to follow if she wanted to. Trailing after him she could see him jump down the stairs.


Well, that wasn't gonna end well, hopefully he can stick the landing? She thought to herself trying to rush as fast as she could using her tail as her only source of movement, going over to the stairs and seeing him lying against the walls edge.


She came down a little concerned if he was alright, and a little annoyed he did that. " You know it isn't probably good for to jump off from a staircase like that right after waking up in a infirmary. " she said sighing at him.
 
The next few minutes passed in surprising silence, and when Anya departed Lily couldn't help but feel just a little bad. She certainly didn't want to spoil the girl, but at the same time she knew that Anya was probably only asking because she missed her family. She'd had time to calm down, and found that she'd perhaps become a little too harsh again.


"I don't know. What are you supposed to do in situations like this? I'm just not that comfortable with it, but she really wants to. How do I find a good balance?"





But these were thoughts for another time. She had business to do.


Lily single-mindedly made her way down to the council room and opened it up. There was no Rose there.


"No need to panic. Class is about to start. Maybe... she left early today. Yeah. That's probably it."





Lily looked around to make sure, and quickly spotted Richter. That was good. Richter made it back, so everything probably went well. As Lily approached him, she caught sight of someone else- it was that Riff kid, and they were apparently talking. Lily looked between the two.


"I knew they were secretly in cahoots, probably!"





"Oh... uh..."


Lily really didn't know what to say here.


"Wow. So the team we were all on won. Just as I had planned. Go evil."


Lily didn't really care who's side she was on as long as she could keep Anya safe, after all, and the bad guys had won so she decided to switch.
 
"Skyia..... you're right... sorry I sort of panicked there... I might be perfectly fine... but my body is still half asleep..."


-Wait... if its half asleep, that means I'm starting to get used to having a normal life... right...?-


Azure forced himself to get up and looked toward Skyia


"I'm sorry Skyia... I just... can't afford to be expelled..."


Azure became a little quite and somber as he thought about what would await him back home...


"I can safely say... that my life would be ruined..... and that I wouldn't get any 2nd chance at life if I was expelled... lets just go... calmly..."


Azure began walking down the rest of the stairs and made his way to the student counsel room


"Now that I think about it... it probably wasn't likely that Rose would plan a trip to happen just the next day, which would be today... and giving the students no heads up as far as I know... I wasn't thinking straight really... have you heard anything about it?"


As he turned down, he saw Lily open the door, to look in before closing it again


"Maybe she is in there then Skyia..."


-Guess there's no real choice-


He made his way over to Lily


"Lily, is Rose in there, I need to talk with her over a few things..."


He looked over to see what Lily was looking at and saw Richter, with Riff...


-Hmm...-

Riff pulled a disgusted face as Richter took the papers. Disgusting. The man had actually let himself get seduced by an old hag who looked like she hadn't even reached puberty yet. Riff nearly threw up in his mouth thinking of it, but managed to save himself by returning to the matter at hand. As Richter gave him their supposed options, Riff couldn't help but laugh. Now he knew for sure that he picked the wrong school.


"We had no obligation to tell you anything. This school advertised complete anmesty. Everything we did before walking through that gate might as well have never happened. As if we could've just walked in and said, 'Hey, we're the embodiment of evil and have killed tens of thousands of people, but we're really sorry.' You're more deluded than that Azure kid. We came here because we were tired of running, tired of all the bull**** we kept running into outside."


Riff tightened his fists, but his face looked calmer. He looked up at Richter, wanting to rip the man's face off but deciding that would be worse for Mel's situation. Instead, he said, "Do you like stories? Since you're so ******* curious about us, why don't I tell you something."


"Thomas Benoit had everything. A beautiful wife. A great job. A name in the vampire kingdom. But he still wanted more. Mainly, his secretary Siobhan Raffit. And like with everything else in life, he got her too. But soon she became pregnant. Not wanting a scandal, he told her to go away, promising that he'd come back for her."


"But 13 years passed and he didn't show up. Siobhan gave birth to a boy and though she loved him, she loved Thomas more. For years all she did was sit by her window, waiting for her lover to rescue her, while her son went about doing whatever he wanted. And eventually, Thomas did come back, claiming he divorced his wife for her. Blinded by love, she followed him back to the city, taking her son with her. The boy could see the lies in Thomas' promises of marriage and a life together, but he said nothing because his mother looked so happy. Instead, he stayed quiet, hoping and praying that he was wrong."


"But he wasn't. Apparently, 'daddy's' business took a turn for the worse and he needed to borrow some money from some bad people. And when it came time to pay them, he didn't want to because then people would know about him dealing with the local mafia. So he sold his mistress to them. And because she still, for some unexplainable reason, loved him, she went with them. Her son didn't see her again until 4 days later, when a police officer came and led him to a back alley. And there was his mother, raped and beaten to death. The ******** didn't even have the decency to cover her up before they threw her out."


"Blaming his father, the boy stormed his office. Armed with nothing but a knife and a baseball bat, he tried to storm the building. Tried to kill his father. But security caught him early on and threw him in jail to await trial."


"And while waiting in that dark cell, he met a girl. A little girl who sat outside the cell patiently as he recounted his story. And once he was done, she told him, 'Follow me. And if there is anythin gin this word that upsets you. Anything you don't like. I will get rid of it for you.' Needless to say, the boy took her up on that offer and that night, she made sure his father felt every bit of pain and humiliation his mother must've felt. And he has followed her ever since."


Riff paused for a bit. God, Richter was just like his father. Always thinking with the head in his pants, doing whatever was most convenient to him. ******* *******. "Do you think you are the first group to want us dead? We've had bounty hunters chase us around and attack us nearly everywhere we went. A good chunk of our kills come from them. So when someone just up and attacks us, we cannot afford to just trust them."


Soon he noticed Lily, making some lame attempt to get on his good side. Not amused, he huffed and started to leave. "It's obvious you're not going to listen. The head downstairs has no ears after all. I have some other business to attend to anyway."


Spotting Azure, he thanked his luck, he could get this done quickly then. Approaching Azure, he reached into his pocket. "Miss Mel has been meaning to do this for quite a while." He then pulled out a bundle and tossed it at the boy's feet. "It's your sister's knives. Miss Mel would like to return them to her. Other than classtime, we can never seem to find her. Being siblings, you must meet regularly. And tell Miss Kylier that we couldn't find two of her knives so Miss Mel replaced them."


With that done, he left. He didn't want to even look at these people anymore. And that was saying something. Usually, Riff was something of a consigerge for the group, dealing with people on Mel's behalf, so he was no stranger to social situations, but these people were as dense as bricks, if not more.


~~~~~


Bunny woke up that morning in the best of moods. Not only was Mel dead, but she was the one who delivered the final blow. With this, there was no way she wouldn't be let back into Heaven. No way she wouldn't be restored back to her former power and glory. She'd still look like a lolicon's dream, but she'd have power again, prestige.


And honestly, it couldn't have been easier. With Mel's reputation and Rose's determination to protect humans, Bunny had thought this would've been harder than her previous "jobs". However, it seemed the school was full of perverts more than happy to help poor, defenseless, little Bunny. And with the place full of gossip-hungry teenagers, it was so easy to spread rumors of the fight. Now with the Princess of Lucifer dead and the whole school knowing of her "noble fight", all she had to do was wait for the call home.


But might as well have some fun while she waited. She sat up in bed, glancing briefly at the mop of hair still sleeping beside her. A member of the Rabbits Enthusiast Club. Nice boy, but not exactly one she'd be going back to regularly.


Changing into her clothes, she left her room and began looking around. No use heading for a class as her job as a teacher's aide would be coming to an end soon. Instead, she made her way outside and having spotted Shift beneath a tree she walked to him. She would've flown but that white-haired retard made a hole in her wing.


"Good morning, Shift."
 
Skyia looked at him tilting her head a bit. Her prediction was right, he really couldn't be kicked out for some reason. She nodded her head listening to him walking beside the green haired boy.


He states that if he was expelled then his second chance of life would be gone, second? Was his family strict? but... thinking again a few days ago when they were talking, and what he said...


Then he began on something else, asking her if Rose would have had plans today. " Umm... i haven't heard anything of that happening around school. But we can at least hope right? " she said trying to be a bit hopeful for his situation.


Off she followed him into the room, a lot of people in there actually, and a familiar face, Riff, though, he doesn't seem pleased with whatever was happening in here. She was about to say something, but he went and just pulled up a bundle of knives and threw them at Azure's feet and just left. She just turns her head around towards Azure. " Uh..? " confused on what just happened.


---


Shiftious raised his head up and looked at the Angel. " Oh... morning Lilith. " he said sighing a bit. " How have you been doing? " He asked her trying to start a conversation. Not really stuttering like usual, just sounding, rather, empty.


He looked up into the sky. " Its a nice morning... " He said in his hollowed out voice right now, with a lack of movement in his body.
 
"Hmm. That was weird. A pity play, maybe?" Richter scratched his chin. "What do you make of it, Miss Darlingtonia?"


He flipped through his new acquisitions. "Personally, I don't care ei- Oh ho!" he grinned. "There's good stuff in here. I think I'll bring this up with my TA soon. Care to tag along?"
 
OK, so Azure survived too she guessed. It was looking less and less like her initial assessment was accurate. She would have answered the boy if Riff hadn't started on some spiel about his mommy and daddy issues, and about how Mel was really not that bad. He was surprisingly concise, so he had probably rehearsed this before. Lily just stayed quiet and tried to look interested in case he had a point.


He didn't, and left in kind of a huff- throwing a bunch of knives on the ground for Azure's sister. There was a lot that Lily didn't quite get, but one thing he had said weighed on her heavily. She would ask about that later.


"No, Azure. Rose isn't there."


"Apparently Rose survived too. Didn't anybody ******* die?"





"She probably went to class."


Richter then spoke to her, and she turned her attention to him.


"I think he was trying to say that some people deserve to die and Mel makes it happen. Probably searching for empathy so they won't still be in trouble. Think the people who sided with Light Yagami in Death Note."


Richter seemed to be interested in a few papers that were apparently related to Bunny somehow. Lily guessed that nobody ended up dying after all. The Alraune shrugged when he asked her to tag along.


"Yeah, that sounds fun. But I kind of have a question first? Who is 'the head downstairs' and why don't they have ears? Is it that weird groundskeeper?"
 
As he looked at the knives... and the mention of Kylier... he was sure of what had happened...


"..... I'm sorry... Riff..."


-This wasn't how things were supposed to turn out... Kylier was right... erg..... GAH... why is she always right!-


He looked toward Lily as she answered him


"Thanks for letting me know..."


He turned toward Skyia and spoke to her in a whisper


"I..... can't just accept things like they are... I feel guilty... I never wanted any fight to happen... but..."


He looked away, ashamed with himself.


"I want to at least, try to do something for Riff... you know Skyia...? Can you do me a favor and go find Rose, let her know that I need to talk with her about Riff and this whole situation, tell her that I don't think we've been doing the right thing... and that I regret what happened... and that I'm going to try to make amends or something with Riff... I thought he was just a servant doing a job he wanted to do... but, after everything that happened... I can relate to him now... I think..."


He gave Skyia his Shadow Edge


"She'll should know that I sent you if you have this... don't worry about if I need it or not. It has its own way of finding it's way back to me if I need it"


He looked back toward Skyia with a wink, feeling determined to make things right.


-Alright then...-


While no one, besides Skyia was looking Azure cloaked himself under his illusions, and ran after Riff before he could get to far away and lose him. After he was sure they were alone in the halls with no one and undid his illusions on himself wanting to speak.


"....."


All Azure did was breathe, but not say anything...


-Just..... say what needs to be said...-


"Riff..... I want to make amends..."


He couldn't help but wear a guilty and ashamed face on him, looking away as he awaited him to do something...
 
"....I think he was referring to my junk." Richter said after a moment of pondering. "Weird. I haven't done that in... it's been a while since anyone caught my eye, actually. Ah, but I doubt you'd want to hear about an old man's former flames, am I right?"


He led the way downstairs. "I doubt it's appropriate for a child to hear, anyways."
 
"He... was talking about Richter's junk? Like all that crap he brought to school? I mean, it's not ALL junk..."





The professor then elaborated further, and Lily blushed a little.


"Well, I'm not really interested in- hey! I'm not a child! I am an adult, professor, I will have you know. I've done and am aware of all sorts of adult stuff. You're probably not old enough to hear. You don't even know," said Lily, scuttling alongside the vampire.


"You don't even know," she muttered.
 
Skyia was very confused at this entire situation now. People dying apparently and then relating it to a Anime? Some weird groundskeeper?


She turned her head back towards Azure and listened to his request, hearing that he would like to make amends, for a fight, she wondered if it was the fight that happened recently, it was very likely that was the case. Quietly listening to him explain how he wanted to make up something he did in some way.


She took the blade he handed to her, looking at it. What a strange knife, she thought to herself looking at it, before looking up at him listening to him say something else. She nodded accepting this request. Then he disappeared right in front of her.


It honestly caught her a bit off guard, but maybe that was the power the guy earlier was talking about? Well, she had a job to do so she turned her body around and began slithering out to look for Rose, its a good thing her class started later on today, else she might not have been able to do this now. So off she slithered, going to start checking the nearby classrooms for Rose. Holding the knife close to her, so she wouldn't lose it.
 
"OK first off? Monopoly is lame. I mostly play video games. For adults. Second? I am 15 years old, and plants grow faster than animals."


"Though I haven't grown in two years..."





"As you can tell, I am totally an adult," said Lily with a bit of indignation. Once again, the vampire was getting on her nerves. If Lily hadn't been so interested in those papers...


"Besides, you used to eat people. So that's not even valid any more."


Still, Lily marveled at his age. She wondered how many films he had seen and video games he had played. Probably a lot, because what else would vampires do during the day back then?
 
Espinosa took a final chomp out of the apple with a loud crunch. She casually held the apple by the stem as she glanced at the apple core. She dropped it back onto the tray and moved to drop off the tray so the custodians wouldn't have to gather it. She waved at the custodian who was currently cleaning up the dining hall "Have a nice day Sorath!"


Sorath the custodian, was the humanoid crimson red demon with flesh that looked like stone waved at her with his clawed hands. He peered at Espinosa with his pure white eyes. "Thanks Aurora! Say I'm going to down back to Hell this weekend, want to come, the pools of brimstone are nice and bubbly."





Espinosa shook her head, "I'd enjoy that but I'm heading on an Archaeology Trip. Oh Sorath tell the Devourer of Souls hello for me. And is Gwendolyn okay? I haven't heard from her recently."


Sorath nodded at her as he chuckled a bit, "Yeah she was accidentally seducing one of those "Angels of Justice." Sorath spat out a thick black pus like substance in the trash. "She was sent to find that grimiore, and her lead was on some official, which just so happened to look like that Angel. Anyway while I'm down there I'll give her your regards."


Espinosa smiled, "Thanks!" She gave a final wave to Sorath as she headed out of the dining hall.

"Miss?"


Curtis grabbed Kylier's shoulder carefully, so as not to break her.


"Miss Bane? Kylier? You still with me?"
 
"I've been good. Though I will be leaving soon." Bunny noticed the odd tone in Shift's voice. The shifter sounded odd. Depressed maybe? Or fatigued? Either way, it wasn't her problem nor did she particularly care. Still, even if she were to leave soon, it'd be best to play along like she always had.


So she put on a concerned face, and said, "What's wrong, Shift? You don't seem like yourself. Did something happen?"


~~~~~


Riff turned back as he heard Azure, claiming he wanted to make amends. The demon wanted to just ignore the boy and move on, but the look of guilt and shame on his face seemed sincere enough. Enough to move Riff, just a bit.


He rolled his eyes, crossing his arms over his chest. "It's Miss Mel you should be saying this to, not me. Because I won't forgive you unless she does. And let me tell you. It's not going to be that easy. She isn't the most trusting or forgiving. Last time I screwed up, I had to . . . " He looked Azure up and down before sighing and turning away. "Nevermind. I bet you're too good to do something like that."


~~~~~


Rose walked into class early, seeing only Khan and one other girl she didn't know. She waved to the teacher. "Good morning, Mr. Khan." She then turned her attention to the girl, giving her a quick, "Morning," before taking her usual seat at the front of the class to wait for class to begin. Looking at the clock, she realized it'd be quite a while, but it's not she had anything too urgent to take care of at the moment. Plus, killer or not, she was not going to let her grades drop.
 
"Fifteen used to be an adult age. But that was many years ago. It's not anymore." Richter explained. This girl was acting silly. That was okay, though; it was his job to correct this.


"Why do you want to be an adult anyways? It's not fun. You have to have responsibilities and a boring job with low pay."
 
Shiftious gives a sigh, hearing that she would indeed be leaving. " Ah, its nothing. Just, thinking how i'm gonna try to approach people... I guess. " Pointing his head downward and drawing a circle in the ground.


" Were you able to take care of that thing you needed? " he asked her making his finger into a thin pole to draw the circle better with. " Unless its personal, then i-its alright. " Curling up his legs closer towards him and starting to doodle into the earth.


He starts to mumble to himself. " Maybe i should see if i can help a club or something... I think I can do something in one of them, I think. "


---


Victor went through, cut his way in line a bit, got breakfast, and took it down quickly. Getting up and moving along the room he started towards his first class of the day. Mr Khan's room, ah he knows how to get there.


So he directed Jayus towards the direction, getting there, a couple of minutes later, later than what he might have wanted, but getting there nonetheless, Jayus taking his spot outside the door. Victor moved into the classroom giving a brief wave over to the teacher and made to his desk over to the other side of the room. Sitting up and scanning around the room. Seeing the other students that came in and whoever else decides to come in.


---


Skyia in the meantime was trying to ask some of the staff or other students where they think Rose would be right now, starting to make her way over to the class if they told her the right one.
 
"I told you, I'm a plant," muttered Lily, "Totally different."


Lily really didn't know what to say when Richter asked her why she wanted to be an adult. It really wasn't something she ever considered. Mainly because, well, she kind of didn't.


"It's not like I want to be an adult. I just am. Besides, kids can't do anything significant. Nobody listens to them. If I want to change anything, I have to be an adult right? And I intend to make some changes."
 
Richter scratched his chin in thought.


"For someone who doesn't want to be an adult, you sure do put them on a pedestal." he commented.
 
Espinosa was heading to her classroom when she noticed a Lamia slithering down the halls, looking a bit lost. She walked up to Skyia, "Hey there are you lost? I can help you out if you want. What exactly are you looking for now?"
 
Lily shrugged.


"Well I'm not wrong, am I?"


Lily then raised herself up off the ground a little more and tried to get a look at the papers Richter seemed to be having a good time with earlier.


"What are those, anyways? Are we going to go over more costumes for Bunny to try on? Oh, I got her to play with me yesterday. You can have those pictures if you want, to see what works for your TA's uniform. I liked the nurse."
 
"I'm not sure you should dress or undress near her anymore." Richter said, handing her the papers. "There's some weird stuff in here."


He leaned down next to her, and said quietly, "Who can say what was going through her head that entire time."
 
Skyia just came looking around more, a bit lost, that classroom she was told was just a empty room for storage. What a bummer, so she would continue her search, when she hear someone call her out.


" Hmm? " Skyia looked over the woman, listening to her offer to help. " Oh! Yes i actually could use a bit of help, do you know where Rose's classroom is? I need to deliver a message for someone. " Progressively coiling her tail into a mass talking to her.


" I tried looking on my own by going off of what some people were telling me, but it kinda just lead me into a empty classroom eheh... " Shifting around the blade a bit, but not pulling it away from herself.
 
"Ah... yes... I am....."


She turned toward Curtis, brushing his hands off of her...


"Khan's class is where I am headed now, so if you were to just follow me, you will end up there as well."


She began walking up ahead at a normal pace, not waiting to see if Curtis was going to follow him or not.


~~~~~


-So... she's..... that's good...-


He listened to what he had to say about Mel... and something about it reminded him about Kylier... and Azure cringed a bit thinking back what happened...


"Well... wait... before I came here... Kylier, well..."


He couldn't help but get a little embarrassed about what he was about to tell Riff. It may be things he'd rather not share, but what he was trying was more important to him...


"I'm used to punishments of all kinds and ways because of her... and I don't have anyway to really fight her back the way she plays... so before I even came to this school... she'd beat me or make me do whatever she wanted..."


He took a deep breath saying all of that stuff


"Even if I don't look it... I can at least try..."
