Oriens Academy [Phoenix Game]

"They can't sign it, so I did it myself." Anya explained, grabbing her friend's hand. "And since they can't sign it, I figured it's okay to sign it for myself, right? That's how growing up works."


Without another word, she tugged Lily along, trying to lead her to the next class.
 
Skyia widened her eyes upon hearing this. " U-uhh, I see! " She said freezing up in place.


" I hope i-it isn't rude b-but could you n-not hold onto m-me then? " She said wriggling about with her tail in quite discomfort.
 
-... I don't know if Rasputin really cares about me... he seems more like he cares about what my abilities are than me as a person... even if she says otherwise-


"I..."


He looked down, he felt like he couldn't just really say what was on his mind, it felt he'd make a chore out of himself, or that he was just looking for people to pity him.


"I'm alright... really, I'm used to this sort of thing, its just a bad day for me is all... I'll probably have a better day tomorrow or something..."
 
Lily raised an eyebrow as Anya gave her explanation. She had been living with the Neko long enough to not be surprised at her interpretation of the events, but she still had to correct the girl.


"OK, well, that's not how growing up works but..."


Lily shrugged.


"Well, the school is really lax. She'll probably get away with it anyways, so why rain on her parade?"





"Whatever. It's probably fine if you can't get your parents to sign, but next time let me do it. I'm your adult now, remember?"


And with that, Lily would let Anya lead her to the next class.
 
Espinosa peered at Azure as she stood up and pointed at him, "OH no, this goes FAR deeper than one bad day. This Field Trip will change you for the better. And during it, you will be observed by Rasputin. He'll make sure you get out of this whining slump. You are NOT going to stay "used to things", you are going to change and will gain some much needed confidence! Anyway, I don't want to keep you from classes, I can't encourage people being late. Go on, run off to class... But remember your problems will haunt you until you do something about them. I know this, and have dealt with it myself. Don't just hide. Fight." Espinosa waved at Azure, "Have a good rest of the day."
 
Josue simply gave a knowing look to Miss Espinoza laughing a hearty GAHAHAHA and went on his way to room 024 for his Botany class. The room was fairly obvious once he caught sight of an extensive greenhouse compound outside the windows. Inside the room well it had a bunch of plants and some terrariums and even a model of a plant zygote in different developmental stages as well as cell structures.
 
Curtis pulled his hand off, realizing what he had just said.


"Oh! Geez, I, uh- sorry.", he rubbed the back of his neck nervously, "Uh, anyway, we should probably get to class now."
 
Skyia let out a sigh of relief when he let her go. " Its alright, j-just make sure to be c-careful, you know? "


She nodded her head. " What class do you h-have? " She said beginning her slithering towards her next class, just trying to stir up a conversation.
 
Curtis checked his schedule. "Looks like Mr. Richter's. I guess we could, uh, walk there together, so we don't get lost?"
 
"..."


He didn't say anything as she let Azure be on his way


-How... how do I deal with things I don't have any control over... its not like I wanted to live the life I got forced on me... its not like I'm trying to complain or whine to anyone... why can't I just keep things to myself...-


He increased his pace to his next class


-If I can just graduate from this school, I'll probably part ways with Kylier, it should be fine, its not a delusion!-


When he got to Richter's class he saw that he was the first one, until he saw someone else beat him to it. He didn't know him, so he didn't really matter to Azure. With still some time to spare, he just got into a desk along the right side of the class and rested his head on the desk, and wrapped his arms in front of his head, tried.


-I can probably rest for just a bit before class starts-
 
Robin glanced around the hallways, as she adjusted the collar of her school jacket. She ran her fingers through her light red shoulder length hair. Yes, this is a good form for now. Robin thought to herself as she adjusted a few buttons on her jacket. Robin pointed at a random student in the hallway, who was near a large set of wheeled trunks. "You there, peasant." Robin waved her left hand in a fanning motion as she turned her face away from the individual in question, "I am of a higher social class than you, and as a mere peasant you shall take my holdings to my newest fief."


The student blinked as Robin glared at him and then pointed at him. "Did I stutter, I gave you a command. You shall follow my orders to the letter, ALL of my holdings to the newest fief!" Robin stormed off in a huff, as she shook her head. Such insolent swine who do not understand how to follow the simplest of orders. What a pitiful and laughable peasant, I shall enjoy taking my tief from him. Alongside all other peasants who are such laughable in their mental faculties. How such inferior creatures are even still moving is a strange event, Clerics all around will either deem it divine or a cruel and most sinister curse... Robin continued through the hallways when she saw a much larger student. Robin pointed at the cartoonishly large man, "You there! Oaf, get out of the way, you are blocking my progression to my destination." Robin wagged her right index finger, "Submit to my orders and move. I will not give this commandment again."

She nodded her head. " I wouldn't mind l-leading you there, Azure brought me over that way before, i-it shouldn't take too long! " She began to feel a little more comfortable now that she was flowing through a conversation, and that he didn't have a grip on her shoulder.


Suddenly a voice she turned her head towards the source and saw a girl. Who sounded very demanding, not really wanting to get any trouble with her Skyia slithered off towards the side a bit waiting a bit for the large man.

Victor looked up and saw the lazy moss head again. Doing as usual it seems in this class.


He would just lie back in his seat for a bit, maybe he would try to start up a conversation, seeing as they are both humans and all that, but whatever, right now he wanted class to start soon.
 
"Yes'm." Curtis mumbled as he shuffled out of the way- the girl was remarkably aggressive, and just a little bit scary. He decided it was best to just stop talking and go straight to class, gesturing for the snake-girl to follow.
 
"Okay." Anya said briefly. She remained oddly quiet as she brought her friend into the class, and sat them down at their desks.


--------


Richter threw a baseball at Azure's head. "No sleeping." he snapped He stood up, stretching as the last few students began to trickle in.


"Class, we were going to dissect a mummy, but a change has come up." he began, walking over to an iron box. He poured a vial of red fluid in between the bars of a tiny window, and a loud rumbling was heard from within. Richter through open the door, revealing a dreadful looking creature. It wasn't quite human, possessing jagged, shark-like teeth, and most of its skin resembled scar tissue, with various stitches littering its body. One arm seemed shriveled and underdeveloped; the other was meaty, and had a large crescent blade attached near the wrist.


It began screaming horribly, and started to leap out, before Richter grabbed it by the neck, slamming it to the ground. The shriek was cut to a gasping, gurgling noise as Richter pinned its neck down with his knee, holding the blade arm with a vise-like grip.


"Class, this is a bio-organism created through necromancy, alchemy, or one of several other processes. These are very hard to kill and present certain unique challenges on top. Today we're going over anatomy and processes of extermination. You all have a gasmask and a smock under your desk; please wear them."
 
Skyia followed the giant man, following him all the way towards Richter's classroom.


---


Victor propped his body up seeing this abomination, this might be fun. He reaches under the desk and starts to put on the gas mask. " I'm assuming there is some sort of material it can push into the air where it will slowly choke you to death if you are in the vicinity? "


Sliding off his hat and putting the mask on, looking through the awkwardly fitting thing then putting his hat back on.
 
Robin lifted her head up as she would look down upon the large one, but the fact he was larger. As Robin passed the two of them she contemptuously waved her hand at them, "Do not get in my way again. My presence is far too magnificent for you to be around." She laughed a bit, as she strolled down the hallway, heading to her class. She swung open the door to Ritcher's class as she looked down from her nose upon the individuals there, "Is that all? Just that beast... It is not even worth the use of the basest of cantrips." Robin scoffed as she took a seat, and looked around the classroom.
 
"...?"


Azure lifted up his not all that hurt head and looked at Richter


"I wasn't sleeping, I was just thinking is all..."


He then noticed someone was talking in a rather unique manner


-Is that... Kylier talking.....? Is she so bored that she's harassing students now?-


Azure couldn't help but remember Espinosa's words. Maybe he should at least try something. He got up and walked to the door, and looked out, seeing someone he didn't know. He was impressed at Curtis's lack of aggression. As far as he's seen, he was pretty sure an argument over manners or something of the sort would break out.


-She's, using an illusion on herself I think to look like someone else, I can't imagine anyone else who'd talk the way she is... Ill talk to her after class or something...-


He walked back to his desk and sat down just as the students were coming in as class was just starting.


-That's...... he's...-


Azure put on his equipment without hesitation, but not like some sort of panicked person, just as someone who's following instructions. He then looked toward Robin, sure of himself that she was Kylier.


-Why are you ruining that girl's reputation...-
 
Curtis shuffled into the room, apologizing to Mr. Richter and taking a seat off to the side so as not to block anyone's view. He set his tapedeck to record and sat in silence.

"This one doesn't. It just smells bad; it's been rotting. Now, as you can see, this one is relatively human. However, look at the muscles." He stretched the elbows, running his fingers up the arm. "They're actually solidly developed, and rather large. This guy can do some damage with this arm blade, which is a type of dense bone. And the jaws..." He reached over. "Are also stronger than most humans, and filled with very jagged teeth. It can break most long bones in your body."


He locked the creature's elbow, the bent it backwards. A twist and a yank brought the arm off; a slick oily substance splattered over towards the front desks.


"If you look carefully, the blade is actually braced against the forearm, more an extension of the radius and ulna. It can make a decent edged weapon in a pinch."
 
Skyia waves to Curtis waiting outside the door, occasionally peeking in, she didn't have this class, but she was still curious what exactly happened. And there just so happened to be a teacher ripping off the arm of some corpse, she turned back around the door holding her stomach feeling a bit queasy seeing that.


---


Victor nodded his head. " I see, must really be a bad time to whoever would get caught in a room with one of those and have no way to fend for yourself. " he said examining the ripped off arm.


All the while Jayus just watched the class go on, standing in his usual posture, with very little reaction or movement.
 
Anya was oddly silent as she led Lily to class. The Alraune kind of wanted to ask her if she was OK, but before she knew it they had arrived. Lily took the gas mask and smock out from under a desk, and moved it away so that she could coil up her vines and just sit as is.


Lily wordlessly put on the smock, and tried to put on the gas mask before she remembered that most harmful gasses wouldn't affect her as badly as the worthless mammals because she was a plant. In fact, she was pretty sure it wouldn't be harmful for her at all.


Which was good, because the mask wouldn't fit over the bulbs on her head. Such was the price of true beauty.


Lily turned to Anya, somewhat concerned.


"This class looks scary," Lily whispered, "You can leave if you want, Anya. In fact, it would probably be best."


As if on cue, Richter ripped the arm off of the horrid beast and an oily substance splattered everywhere.


"It's probably not for children, is what I'm saying."
 
Azure wasn't really surprised to see the oily substance come out of it, although it was a little shocking seeing a mummy spew that sort of stuff out. If it wasn't the fact that Richter is a force of nature, he'd probably be concerned about it, but he seemed like he had the creature more than under his control


"Huh... for a mummy, that's a surprisingly durable and lively one in my opinion. I wouldn't think it'd be equipped like that. It's more dangerous than it looks"
 
"No, it's okay." Anya answered, tying on her smock. "It was scary the first time, but it's not as bad now. I think it could be fun if we do this enough."


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


"That it is." Richter replied. "Now, you may have noticed how this thing became active. They can go into a dormant state, but be brought back by blood or flesh, so long as a few key parts of their structure are intact. They're very hard to get rid of, and they often come in gro- Azure this isn't a mummy. Mummies are completely different."
 
Robin yawned at the sight of the arm ripping off, but paid great attention to the oil substance coming out. She checked to make sure that the substance did not land on her. Noticing there was a frock, she quickly put it on. "*Yawn* What a poor specimen... Tell me does this institution not have the proper coffers to get a more apt specimen, one that is actually worthy, well for mere peasants who do not even possess a mere fragment of the education that I have recieved, learning things from?" This looks like the work of an apprentice necromancer..." Robin rubbed under her right eye, as she looked down upon, no one in particular but was still looking down. During this she noticed the gas-mask, and began putting it on.

"You did say that it was one earlier, I thought it was some sort of mutated one was all. Its just a reanimated corpse then, or what would you call this creature then?"


Azure began thinking through things


-So that was blood that he poured in there, that makes sense. But... a necromancer though. If its using magic to imbue it with life again, I should be able to suck it out..... although... if they come in groups... I wouldn't want to try that...-


"Would the key parts be its brains, some organ, or its tendons then, or would blowing it apart somehow be better?"
