Oriens Academy [Phoenix Game]

Mr. Khan made a loud cough drawing in attention. "Mr. Lerrus. Mr. Curtis. Do you two need some privacy?" he raised an eyebrow. The teacher's arms were crossed as he sat down, legs folded in his desk chair, feet resting on said desk. "I can write you two a hall pass if that's what you want."
 
Lerrus chuckled and smiled.


"I seem to be misunderstood, I was demonstrating a Guillotine choke to him. It appears as though the meaning was lost in translation. Besides, I have no interest in men, regardless of how effeminate they are."


He was finding amusing how weird this situation got. He hoped people weren't all like this though, or he may have a rather awkward future ahead of him.
 

Elaem


(sorry I'm so behind ill make this short)







Elaem made it back to his dorm away from the group after the battle he was shocked, he saw the girl they antagonized from a closer view after Riff had left him to go pick her up, he took the opportunity and confirmed she was human, but why.. Why would they attempt to kill a human? It was like his village all over again.. A damn purge. Elaem shook his head at these thoughts and ran swiftly away from the group a wide eyed expression on his face.


The next day Elaem awoke later than usual, he was going to be late for his first class and ignored it, he simply looked to the ceiling and kept asking what the hell was wrong with those people, what did that woman do? She was human. He didn't understand much of it so he kept it at the back of his mind for the time being, he knew that woman would not be struck down so easily, he saw her lying there, that pretty much answers everything itself. He stood and stretched immediately after the wound on his shoulder began to bleed again


"Shit, I'd almost forgotten..." he said as he cleaned it with a first aid kit that was in the room and stitched it a bit





He told himself he would go to the nurses later since his class was priority, it took him a while to reach it but he found the unarmed combats class, he was pretty late but it seems he might have not been the only one. There were a few students standing out in the hall, one a girl the other a heavily armored silhouette. He leaned on the wall as well guessing he should not interrupt yet. He looked inside and noticed they were taking a test.


"Damn it.." he said not realizing he thought outloud

There was a sharp CRACK as the corner of Curtis' desk came off in his hand. "Uh, thank you, but, uh, no, sir-", he said as he tried to hide the chunk of desk behind his back, "-I'm okay, sir. Really."


Effeminate? Me? Since when?
 
"It's fine. It's not like the thing is a secret. The whole school seems to be talking about it now." Bunny scratched the back of her head, faking embarrassment though she was in fact ecstatic, reveling in the glory that was her. "Yes, it went rather well," she said with a satisfied smile. "Finished it last night, so I really don't have much reason to stay here. I need to go home after all."


"And as for your problem, helping with a club might be just what you need." She sat down beside him, leaning her head against his arm. "But it'd have to be something you like . . . " Bunny sat there, pretending to think until she nearly jumped as if just having a brilliant idea. Though she knew full well what she was going to tell him in the beginning. "Shift, do you like rabbits?"


~~~~~


"I . . . see . . . " Riff said, taking in what Azure had just said. He took a minute to think things over before addressing the boy again. "Well, you'll be glad to know this is a relatively painless thing. Just a bit . . . embarrassing."


"Last time I angered Miss Mel, I had to dress up like a dog and do some nonsensical dance with sparklers. And all I did was arrive at camp past curfew. I can't imagine what you'd have to do to get her to forgive you. Pretty sure attacking her, injuring her servant and breaking the weapons she crafted is a tad worse than being late."


Riff paused, waiting for a reaction from Azure. If he really wanted Mel to forgive him, something like this would be nothing. Though he'd have to think of something bigger to fit his crime. "So, how much do you want her forgiveness?"


~~~~~


Rose watched as people began filing into class and as yet another new student, who she had no idea of, introduced him to the class. He was pretty good looking, hot even. But still, he was in violation of the rules, not wearing the uniform to class. He must've gotten one earlier when they showed him his room. Unless he wasn't able to pre-order it.


Khan then started distributing worksheets, or rather had everyone pass them out themselves. Taking on herself, she looked down at the questions on it. How would she react? Truth be told, Rose didn't have much training in unarmed combat. Sort of the reason she was taking this class. She did know something about self defense though.


If she was put in such a situation, she would probably lower herself before tackling the assailant, aiming for his waist with the intention to knock him over. Then after he lost his footing, she would try to knock the man out, maybe making him hit his head on the ground. Or try to find a way to restrain him, though that'd be near impossible if she couldn't use her surroundings to her advantage. Rose wasn't the strongest of people, so it'd be important for her to subdue him quickly.


She wrote down her answers, hoping them passable at least, before turning her worksheet over and waiting for further instructions.
 
Shiftious sat upward hearing what she said. He, was a bit confused what she meant by that, or even implied.


Listening to her agree with that mumble he had said to himself and seeing her help think of a club he just sat there silent. Then she hopped up suddenly looking like she had a idea of a club he might like. He sits up when she brings up the question of if he likes rabbits. " I- i guess i do. " Curious of why exactly did she bring that up. " Any particular r-reason why? " He asked sitting forward now.

Lily really did love her schadenfreude, but it had been so long since she'd truly enjoyed the suffering of others. Maybe because spending time with friends was more fulfilling. It occurred to her that maybe she shouldn't do such things as student council VP, so she would make herself a quick alibi.


They were likely coming closer to Bunny's position, so Lily quickly pulled out a sheet of paper- using a petal of hers as a writing surface and a vine to fill it out. While she did this, she sprayed a little bit of her enhanced perfume on her wrists and ran them along her neck. Social encounters happened to be her specialty, but a little bit of charisma enhancement was never a bad thing.


"Well somebody has got to be the lady in this encounter, and from the looks of it Bunny is out," Lily pointed out to Richter. She didn't want him suspecting anything, after all.
 
"Well..... I didn't think she would be selective on this sort of thing..."


-...Kylier... has everything I endured lead up to my next following moments?-



Azure was sure that it would be some sort of beating... since well... that's what Kylier did... but I suppose


"So, I guess I'll go for everything..."


-Kylier would smite me if she knew what I was doing... or never live this down...-



"I don't think she'd forgive me or trust me over doing anything less..."
 

Elaem







Elaem sighed and couldn't wait any longer, he had to take that test no matter what! No buts about it he was going to march in there and ask for a test from the teacher! Although he was late... Maybe he should be respectful. He did have injuries he could blame those.. but he did not wish to lie... Trauma maybe? He didn't know. He walked inside of the classroom and towards the teachers desk repeating in his head "Why didn't you wait now people will just look at you"


Elaem walked to the Khan's desk and


"Sorry that I am late sir.. I had some complications arriving... It's my first... Well second... Well first class day I guess... Sorry..." He whispered
 
Another student walked up to Mr. Khan. As she began to speak, Mr. Khan only slowly raised his head so that his gaze could meet hers between her and Mr. Khan's aviator glasses. "Take a seat" he said, pointing to an empty desk in the lecture hall. He took his feet off his desk then leaned over, picking up a worksheet from the extras, handing her one. "I hope you brought a pencil." he said.
 
"Well, the Rabbit Enthusiast Club is nice. Everyone there is so nice. It might be a bit boring. All they do is study and protect small animals. But it could be a great stepping stone for you to practice interacting with others until you find one you really like." She looked up at the groundskeeper, making full use of her lack of height to produce an angle that made her seem more honest and innoccent.


"Plus, you must know the school grounds more than anyone in the castle. Surely, you would know everywhere small animals could be. Small holes for hiding. The nooks and crannies no one knows about. Do you?"



~~~~~


Riff briefly smiled at Azure's answer. Perhaps today wouldn't be a total failure after all. "If you are serious, then find me after you finish your classes. I'm sure you don't want to be considered someone who ditches class. And if you can find anyone who also wishes to make amends, then bring them along as well. The more the merrier, right?"


The demon then left Azure behind. Not feeling like going to class, he found himself with some time to spare. The rumble in his stomach seemed to indicate his hunger, and thinking on it, Mel must've been hungry as well. Going to eat probably wouldn't be too bad.
 
"Good point." Richter agreed, opening the door. Outside, he spied the angel talking to that odd groundskeeper. He decided to call from where he stood, inside the building.


"Hey! Hey Mills!" he called, and held up the papers with one hand, pointing to the other. "Look what we found~!" he sang, grinning. "And I thought pretending to be a child was your only problem!"
 
Shift nodded his head hearing this. " I suppose i can only t-try... " he mumbled.


" Y-yea i guess i know a couple of spots animals could hide at... I think ill look into i- " Suddenly a voice from a particular vampire was called out, calling for Lilith, and he was waiving something around.


Huh, that vampire seems kinda fond of her, also there was the Alurane again, maybe they were gonna do something before she had to go, well, if that was the case then it was kinda nice for her.
 
Lily gave Bunny a friendly wave as she came into view. There was no reason to start off antagonistically- Richter probably had that taken care of. Lily would be good cop for now.


"Hey, Bunny," Lily added to Richter's greeting, "We found some cool stuff that I just know you'll be interested in hearing! Get on over here and check it out with us!"


Lily was actually really interested in what Bunny had to say about this.
 
Kylier had finished her worksheet, answering most situations in either a defensive and enduring way, or as an offensive swift way.


"Hmm..."


She took it upon herself to cause a bit of unrest in Rose, seeing how focused she was and all, since the others were being lively on their own...


"Quite a shame... doesn't look like Azure is going to be able to attend class today. I was sure that he was due for this class at this time... wonder what could have happened to cause this..."


Her rather tactically close position to Rose should have made it easy to hear...


~~~~~


"Right... urk..."



-Classes... I've been so distracted that it completely slip my mind!-


"I'll at least try to see if anyone would..."



-... better get to class quick before I'm way beyond late...-


Azure began making his way to class quickly, uncertain if someone like Richter would be teaching the class again...


-Who to talk to though... I think Rose would be worth a try, although, she did decide to... well I should at least try... and maybe that one guy... Elaem I think... well... I he didn't seem to be that minded... and Lily doesn't seem to care either way... she only really cares about herself and Anya. Richter really didn't seem to care either, I don't think I should talk to him.-


"And then..."



-What would happen if I told Bunny she was alive...? Just like Kylier said... she made an army out of us... and that she was the one who caused Mel to be violent in the first place... wait... wasn't that Kylier though...? Ugh... the both of them probably wouldn't be a good idea either... then again... Kylier said she did spend most of her recent time 'hanging out' with Mel though. Then again... she's not one who would ever do what I'm going to be doing...-



"Ugh... nothing really seems like a good choice..."



-Well... other than Rose, I think if anyone were to come as well, it'd be her... maybe Elaem... though he was just trying to stop a fight... he really doesn't have much to amend...-



Azure made his way to the class he was in today, only to find to his surprise that Skyia was there as well.


-Does Rose have this class as well...? That makes things easy for me... I can do everything I need in one fell swoop now!-


He went over to Skyia


"Hey, Skyia, Rose is in the class there right?"

Elaem







Elaem took a seat and sighed, as he looked at the test he smiled as it was easy, he looked at his options as he twirled his pencil around, this question was about dealing with 2 opponents at separate times, how to deal with a quicker but weaker opponent or a stronger but slower opponent. As well as how to disarm them if they are both equipped with swords.





1) Answer for the weaker individual: If the weaker individual emphasizes his speed you must adapt to it or take a strong stance where speed does is not the advantage but vitality and endurance is, usually your opponent makes too many openings due to confidence or simply the frustrations of not being able to take you down, you must mess with your opponents psyche and have him leave the openings for you. Once that happens you strike with strength and emphasize on those openings. If your opponents remains calm and careful try to match his speed in specific areas such as ground work or upper body and be unpredictable when doing so, your opponent is most likely emphasizing on his strongest suit to take you down instead of paying attention of weak areas.


2) For the stronger opponent use his own power against him, many martial arts such as Judo emphasize on using your own opponents force against him to take him down, but taking him down to the ground is not enough you must leave him unable to fight afterwords which is why usually choke holds such as the many there are in Jujitsu such as the triangle joke etc. can leave your opponent in a locked position, but for this you must use a lot of might as for ground chokes your opponent may be able to lift you and deal damage to your back. Pressure points are also a great way of fighting against stronger foes.


3) To disarm an opponent attempt to escape through the weapons limitations, such as a sword can only slash what's in front of them unless they turn, remain behind them and wait for them to pull their shoulder back or arm, this technique is simple since he cannot see you, you will be able to easily grab the wrist and break it with a twisting motion for the weaker opponent or use a pressure point either directly under the elbow or inside the thumb to have them drop it, the second they do that either grab it or dispose of it somehow.


Elaem gave his answers and turned it in. Sitting down again and waiting.
 
Bunny smiled as Shift agreed to try it. Good. Quiet guys like him were so easy to manipulate. All he had to do was attend a few meetings and soon enough, with enough peer pressure from the others, she would have Shift wrapped around her finger. And with his knowledge of the grounds, she would haave plenty of places to hide or escape in caase Mel's servants decided they wanted a bit of revenge.


Her thoughts were soon interrupted by the voices of Richter and Lily calling out to her from inside. They seemed a bit . . . excited, apparently having found something that had to do with her. A bad feeling started creeping up her neck, but she pushed it down.


"I'm sorry, Shift, but it looks like I have to go. Bye." She then made her way over to the two, putting on the same innocent smile she had been wearing since the dawn of time. "Hi Mr. Richter, Lily. What did you . . . find . . . ?"


Her eyes caught a glimpse of the papers Richter was holding. What? How? How did he get those? How did he even know to get those? ****! The reputation and image she wasted months to forge was going to be smashed to pieces in a matter of minutes?


No, wait. Calm down. The only thing on those papers seemed to be that she was exiled for lewd behavior and a few reports of people describing what they thought of her. This could be easily remedied with a little acting, and God knows she was good at it.


Bunny immediately shrunk back, hugging herself and trembling. Her face paled. Her eyes wide and started to water, as if reliving some horrible trauma. "W-w-where d-did you get those?"
 
Espinosa now in her classroom watched over some students who were there for study hall. She smiled as she took out her satchel and took out a stack of papers. She went over and read through them. Yes the waivers are all good and ready. She smiled as she moved them to the front left side of the desk, directly opposite of the Homework bin on the right side of the desk.


Espinosa opened a desk drawer as she pulled out a small round tip brush and placed it on the desk. She then reached under the desk as she pulled out a relic she uncovered from a dig of Pre-War ruins. It managed to survive and was in somewhat good condition. It was a strange looking device, it was mostly flat, though there was a noticeable lower level which had a small circular crater. Just a bit away from it was an oblong device that was mostly cracked an rusted. During a closer examination while she was on the field, the oblong object was a button which partially opened the layer in front. It was worn out from the years and couldn't open fully, but there was enough room to hold a flattened disc, as it had the same middle latch which fit in the middle of the information discs which people of the past called 'Compact Discs', which was shortened to CDs. The back of the device was was cracked and torn, while the front, with the oblong button stayed the same. On the front of the device was a small insertion. It was for some other device, although only part of it survived. It was a rectangular piece, which was also black, that curved downward and had several crevices marked throughout it. Continuing from that point there was part of a cord which was cut apart, and the insides of it were completely removed. The outside of the cord was soft and rather malleable. She stared at the artifact for a bit, then before turning her attention to the brush.


Espinosa took her brush as she began cleaning up the surface of the device, in particular going over faded lettering which- quite miraculously, was still there. It spelled out "Jaguar", in faded red. She carefully brushed over the device as she peered over the study hall. I have time before my actual teaching class start. And I can't leave such relics unkempt. Espinosa thought to herself.

Skyia waited and waited, just seeing if the class would end soon so she could talk to rose. Letting out a bored sigh she just slumped against the wall.


Shortly afterwards she sees Azure come around, he must have finished whatever he went off to do. She straightened up herself to talk to him.


" Yea shes in here, I was gonna ask if I could talk with her for a bit, but they seem to be taking a test right now. " Shifting around in her spot, and just fiddling around with the blade in her hands. " I was just waiting for them to finish before I can ask to talk to her. " Looking down towards the ground as she said that.


Looking back up at him she started to hold out his blade. " You don't need me to hold onto this anymore? " She asked him, seeing since he's here already he could just talk to her directly.

Victor tapped his pen, waiting for things to go along in this class, and just decides to take his time and lie back a bit waiting for the test to be over, and he just began to listen. Just sitting to see if he could pick up anything today to see if it would start to lighten his tired mood.


He somewhat pondered though why a small neko was in this class, right alongside the gigantic man that was in another portion of the room, who promptly broke his desk. Some people began to turn in their worksheets, huh, guess he forgot to do that, so he pulled himself up and walked over to submit his answers before going back to his seat sitting down again.


---


" O-okay... " He said, slumping himself against the tree again, looking over to see what they all were doing. Just, watching really.
 
Finished with her worksheet, Rose sat back, trying to relax, but a voice made her tense up gain. Someone was talking about Azure, or rather how he didn't seem to be there. She turned her face down, making it look like she was focused on her desk, all while trying to catch the speaker out of the corner of her eye. She didn't see anyone noteworthy, no one really looking at her. Though this didn't mean it was just in her head. It might've been someone outside her peripherals. Still, she didn't risk turning around to look. She didn't want to be called out like those two boys from earlier. She'd have to wait for a chance to look later.
 
Mr. Khan waited as all his students passed back in their worksheets. He collected them in a pile and held them in his left hand. "Is that all?" Mr. Khan asked. He shook the pile back and forth, the papers making a flapping sound. "Well then" Mr. Khan made his way back to his desk, putting the worksheets back into his suitcase. "We still have a little more time for instruction. While on paper, everything's well and good, it's also important we test your mettle on the field. Would any two of you like to volunteer?"
 

Elaem







Elaem sits at his desk for a while silently until the teacher picked up the paper, he was going to stand to go to the bathroom but the teacher began speaking so Elaem decided to wait, Elaem raised his hand slowly as the teacher finished but then realized.


--Wait. He asked for volunteers, if I am raising my hand that means I volunteer. Maybe I should lower my hand.... but I maybe he'll ask before... Actually he probably wont... Well I don't have to go that bad... Hm. LOWER YOUR HAND ELAEM!--





Elaem struggles and freezes with his hand up, the battle of the socially awkward boy continues! The paranoia of lowering his hand overcomes him!


--People might see me as a coward if I raised my hand and immediately lowered it after he said that... Eh...--





Elaem ends up being too scared and keeps his hand up, even though he didn't really wanna get his face pummeled. He then thought his abilities were pretty good so he had a fragment of confidence there. But the thought of all of them staring is not the best. What if that underwear thing was real? Wait that would just be kind of perverted to think of there are girls... The Dilemma continues!
 
-Heh... looks like that elicited a reaction from her...-





~~~~~


"Ah, well....."


-A test... I was missing a test!?-



"Er... actually, since we can't bring weapons in class, I'd like it if you could hold onto just a bit longer, I'm sorry Skyia"



Azure went into the class, nervous about what might happen since he was late


"Uh! Sorry I am late..."


Azure decided to just take a seat in the back, not wanting to stand to hear what he would have to say...


"..."


-How untimely for me to say such a thing... how potentially troublesome...-



Azure grinned, all tense in his seat, hoping that class would just continue as normal...
 
Richter only grinned wider as he saw Bunny's reaction, before laughing maniacally. "Does it really matter, as long as it's genuine? You know, for a second there I thought picking on you over the disguise was a little too much, but this..."


He looked over the papers, then back to her. "Just what have you been up to when you're not chasing fugitives, Miss Mills?"


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


"I'll volunteer," Anya raised her hand. She didn't have any metal on hand, but she saw wrestlers on the TV sometimes, and figured it'd be fun to see how they manage to do flying elbow drops and fire blasts.
 
"..."


-I see... so she shall be my opponent-



Kylier raised her hand, with a grin on her face


"I suppose there would be no finer opponate for me, than the hero of the Sixth Heaven..."


She looked back at Anya


"Isn't that right... Champion of Justice?"


-I wonder, if she even remembers what I am refering to, back at the camping trip... when I first played with her-



"...huh..."


Azure had no idea at all what Kylier was doing or talking about...
