Fantasy Supernatural Teenage Drama

Dexter stopped painting for a moment and he nodded in agreement at his first statement. He could sense his struggle for the right words, but he appreciated the fact that he could lend an ear. Dexter frowned deeply, reflecting on his behavior the last few days. He looked up and gave him a meek smile. "I'm working on it... I really am." he couldn't tell if he was genuine in his own conviction or just lying to himself just make himself feel better. He read into him a bit more, sensing the roots of his struggle. He let his intuition do the rest. "I take it that you got that from Ryan?" he asked with apprehension.

 

[RyanJXavier]

Eric replied, "Honestly, I just thought about how Ryan would respond. I'm not really good with deep conversations like this, but I did mean what I said". He looked at Dexter, "So, you know him that well that you are able to tell that I am getting that from Ryan?" Eric finished painting Ryan's section then moved to the next one.

Jordan eyed Ryan smiling and followed him. "Wow. And you speak Portuguese. Honestly, why am I not surprised?" She walked by him and took in their surroundings. She was slightly envious of Ryan, considering he could travel the world in probably a day if he wanted to. Lucky.

 

[RyanJXavier]

Ryan carried Jordan bridal style and dashed to the Christ the Redeemer, "Here we are!" He put Jordan down, "Woah!" Ryan made his way over to the railings, "You can see everything from here". He turned around to look at Jordan when the giant Jesus statue caught his eye, "...amen". Ryan looked up as his eyes examined the statue.

 

[EtherealDarkling]

"You're friends with em' aren't you? If I'm wrong you can correct me... as long as you're not lying." he hinted, trying to spark another topic. He stood up from his spot to finish the rest of the area he was on. He also gave Lisa another look, wondering if she could hear any of this.

 

[RyanJXavier]

"Yeah I'm friends with Ryry. Who I will soon call Roro because of his Romeo role in the play....Why do you ask?" Eric tilted his head. He was glad that the project was almost finished.

 

[goldcat16471]

Jordan laughed softly from getting carried, then her eyes widened from the view. "Woah, indeed...!" She looked at the statue also, and stared at it becoming lost in thoughts. Finally she glanced at Ryan slightly and smiled softly.

 

[EtherealDarkling]

Dexter grinned at the few nicknames Eric gave Ryan. "Oh is that so huh? That's cute." he stated. "It was a pretty good guess. I sort of assumed that he had a lot of friends."

 

[RyanJXavier]

Ryan looked at Jordan, "You're smiling? That's better". He used his sight to zoom into someone's watch. There class was almost over! "Jordan, I hate to rush this experience, but we need to go back. Are you ready?" Ryan asked.


"Dex if you have any nicknames then please feel free to share them with me. The nickname he calls me makes me sound like the viking explorer how many hundreds of years ago" Eric said finishing the next section.

 

[goldcat16471]

Jordan, though still feeling a little emotional, felt much better than before and nodded, "Yeah we better get back." She looked at him and smiled a bit more, "Ryan, thank you for making me feel better." She looked around, "And taking me here." She grinned softly. "Alright... Let's go."

 

[EtherealDarkling]

"Hmmm.. how do you feel about Rickie?" he suggested, coming up with something rather quickly. "You mean Erik the Red? I had to read about him before."

 

[RyanJXavier]

"Wait how did you get Rickie from Ryan?" Eric asked. "I meant Lief Ericson...wait is he not an explorer? Eh, well whatever he is then" Eric added. "You're welcome Jordan" Ryan smiled then carried her the same way again. He dashed back to the forest area and saw Eric and Dex talking, "You two seem to be having a nice conversation" Ryan smiled as he put Jordan down.

 

[EtherealDarkling]

Dexter looked up again, wincing at the stream of sunlight that beamed on him. "Oh! For Ryan? I thought you were talking about you? You know, Rick-E. Get it?" he dipped his brush in paint again when he heard Ryan from behind him, feeling the wind blow against his back. "Yeah, pretty much. Where you been? I figured it would've took you quicker to look at your shoulder and then come back."

 

[goldcat16471]

Jordan smiled at Dex and Eric, definitely noticing the mood was lighter. She glanced at Lisa, who was frozen and figured that was why. She looked at the project and noticed it was close to getting down, and immediately grabbed her paintbrush to help again.

 

[RyanJXavier]

Eric replied, "Oh I see. My fault for not clarifying. Good one though!" Eric responded bluntly to Ryan, "It was about you Ryry Rickie Roro". Ryan laughed, "Nice name! It sounds like your imitating a DJ turntable when the DJ scratches the disk a few times". Eric smiled. Ryan asked, "How many more minutes do we have?" Eric glanced at his watch, "Ten more minutes until Mr. Esven closes the area off. We'll be able to finish this in three though".

 

[goldcat16471]

Jordan finished her section and looked at the others. They seemed to be nearing finishing as well. She put her paintbrush back by the supplies and started cleaning up some. "Are we going to turn this in today? Or wait until tomorrow?" She asked.

 

[EtherealDarkling]

Dexter burst into laughter at the combination of nicknames. "It's sounds like a Pokemon to me." he snickered. At hearing about the time, he nodded getting ready to finish up. It was less strain on him to have less people to block out compared to a classroom. The breeze caressed his left side; he had to remember to start jogging again.

 

[RyanJXavier]

"Due date and presentation is tomorrow. We'll let Mr. Esven close this area off for us" Eric replied finishing the painting section he began to clean up as well. Ryan looked at them, "I can take it from here. You guys can go to your next class". Eric nodded and unfroze Lisa Minelli.

 

[goldcat16471]

Lisa looked at Eric, feeling hurt that he'd freeze her like that, and cast a furious look at Dex and annoyed look at Jordan then bolted out of there, wishing at this moment she was as fast as Ryan. Jordan stood up, and smiled at Ryan, "See you later." She said, "Thanks again." She looked back, "Bye Eric, bye Dex!" She waved, and took off to her class.

Ryder kept up with Alec easily and cursed to himself, glancing around at the dirt beneath them. Splotches of blood stained the pebbles to his right. 'I don't think smelling the air is gonna do us any good,' he replied, smirking. 'Go for the blood.' Lowering his nose to the puddle, Ryder sniffed and jerked back, his whimpering barely audible. 'Not ungifted,' he informed Alec.

 

[Robin of Locksley]

Alec trotted over. 'Yeah. Some of it is mine. Some of the other shifters got hurt too.' He continued searching the area, stopping when he found a fresher scent. 'Hara. It's from this morning.' Alec stood next to a single set of paw prints that transitioned into human tracks. 'So when he left, he went this way. Maybe he's tracking them too?'

 

[sox]

'Could be. Don't see why he'd go alone, though.' If he did stumble across their compound or wherever these forces were holed up, it'd take some backup to survive the encounter without getting captured. 'Wanna check it out once school's out? If we leave now, a teacher's bound to look for us. It's happened before.'

 

[Robin of Locksley]

'He's one of the best trackers the school has. He's a scout.' Alec shook his head. 'But the trail will have gone cold by then...' He said, unsure. Sighing, he added, "Yeah. We can check it out in a few hours. Hopefully it'll still be fresh enough to follow easily.' Alec stood up and headed out of the clearing, casting one last glance over his shoulder before disappearing into the brush.

 

[DrCompton]

Rob got to his second class of the day early, like a good student. He sat there drumming two pencils on the side of his desk in boredom. After a few minutes he was absently whistling "I'm so Fancy" as he sat there waiting

 

[sox]

Ryder bound after him, retracing his footsteps as they headed back to school and out of the woods. Once they neared the edge, the partial shifter regained his human form, frowning at the stretch marks in his shirt. "Disgusting," he commented and shoved his hands in his pockets, glad to find his keys still there.


Miuna talked with Yuki for the majority of her first bell, but figured she'd ought to make some progress while she was out once the late bell for second period rang. Brushing the dirt off of her knees, Miu stood from Yuki's grave and glanced up, shirking her eyes from the sun. "Yuki, do you think there's anyone who can fly?" The spirit shrugged and said nothing, eliciting a sigh from the teen. "Whatever, then. Let's go. I wanna see how good this eye works." Hand in hand, the two started back towards the school.
