OOC: The Enclave is on another planet correct?
(OOC: the Enclave IS the planet :P)

OOC: I'm going to go beat myself with a 2x4 in hopes of reactivating my memory.

Vaughn/Rave: That one..*she repeated. It looked like it had ruins...of something. Maybe she had been there...or he had been there before? *

OOC: I'm going to go beat myself with a 2x4 in hopes of reactivating my memory.
*sends him a 2 X 4 with a pillow attatched to the end*
Didn't want ya to hurt yourself. *smiles* :P

"I suggest we listen. If it is likely, knowing are luck it is the one."

Zed keeps wandering around the corridors of the academy and starts to get annoyed at the lack of people.

Elaïne spotted him.

"This place looks like a ghost town," she said, walking towards him."Very much so." He looks around, something he didn't have to do when he had his armor on, "I haven't seen one of those vampires all day. And you're the only student I've seen."

Voltar took the first sub-orbital plane to Earth II.

I will pass through their gateway and go tell Cecilia about all this.

Zacharian? alive? If he still had a heart it would have stopped functionning. And if he is the one to tell her, he'll most probably have to suffer the consequences.

Don't shoot the messenger, my ass!

"Very much so." He looks around, something he didn't have to do when he had his armor on, "I haven't seen one of those vampires all day. And you're the only student I've seen."

She gave him a charming elven smile.

"I am not a student thought. It seems those vampires are up to something."

And it has me worried. But if the symbol I saw is the right one, there is no way Rave could fail.

"Tell me, where are you from?"

OOC: I must go, I have an early class tomorrow and I need at least some sleep. Please forgive me. Underaloz if it becomes of absolute necessity play Alexei and Craddock. Rave, thanks for letting me into this its been grand. Achtung! This is Emperor Gustav Alderman I "aka the Marti Gras Emperor" signing off.

(OOC: Well, I suggest to put this awesome storyline on hold until we're all on. Tomorrow I guess. This would allow other players to actually RP in the Academy. Now I feel guilty... like I have completly hi-jacked the thread ;) )

(ooc: alright...we'lll continue it later on tommorow..Vuahgn check the *my boss needs a g/f thread...lol*)

"The Empire of Crimmond. One of the outlying nations, based in four solar systems about 1000 lightyears from Earth. I do miss Beta Cygni, the capital, but after my tour of duty here, I'll return to Homeworld work."

Zed fiddled with the datachip he was holding as he spoke.

Zed fiddled with the datachip he was holding as he spoke.
Elaïne looked at the datachip.

"That is something I'll have to do one of these days. Go and visit all the wonderful worlds that exist beyond the moon. You talk about duty. Didn't you come here for the classes?"

(OOC: sorry off for today. Cya tomorrow)

"Not all the worlds are wonderful. One of ours is a complete desert, while one of our allies just had a global society and technology colapse. Their entire civilization was destroyed."

"In answer to your question, yes I am a student, but I'm also an Assault Marine detatched to Earth. I'm not on active duty though, not unless the Melkor War grows to include the rest of the solar system or another World War starts."

(OOC: sorry off for today. Cya tomorrow)

ooc: noooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo *gasps for air* ooooooooooooooo.. alright...see ya tommrow..i'm off as well..

(OOC: all right latest post today, promised ;) )

"Another World War. I really hope this won't happen. And, you know, I happen not to confuse beautiful with wonderful. I do believe there is something to be taken and learned out of any civilization, even if she's into pieces."

She smiled at him, her presence was soothing.

"Now if you'll excuse me, I'll have a walk in the park. I always feel... trapped when inside."

((Can I get a short form update plz? I'm never going away for a single day like that.))

((Can I get a short form update plz? I'm never going away for a single day like that.))You don't know what you missed. I know. I was here and I don't know what you missed...

What I can piece together. Rave kicked the bucket(you know that), everyone at the academy got moody, Qui went off and shredded some poor bastard in the AC room, Rave gets put in Vaughan's(sp?) body(no one is supposed to know that IC), some other RP starts, Rave/Vaughan(sp?) head across the galaxy to go through some portal to put them back in the right bodies.

I brought in Domino, but she just got her head bit off by Daja and is just sitting on a roof while Zed is wandering around trying to find someone to interact with.

There may be more, but I don't know the details.

Also, I'm off for the night.

(( :shock: This is really a F-cked up year))
Phoenix now sitting in the darkness of the night removes his helmet and sighs. The one person he owedd his brothers life has died. He had no way to repay her. Yet death was now begening to send it's invites to end the pain.

Alexander sat meditating. He had pieced together what had happened with Rave and 'Vaughn'. Simple, really. But not important. Every instinct in his body said he should be off fighting for right, going to Valinon. But, he knew he would be needed here. His mission was simple. He had to protect the school while Rave was gone. He looked around. Quite a find, this cemetary. Quiet, peaceful. Just the way he liked things. "Ah, though I walk in the valley of the shadow of death, I shall fear no evil." His mind moved on to Kelly. Ah, now there was a puzzle. How could anyone so beautiful trick him like that? And how could anyone so dastardly steal his heart without even trying? "Irritations."


A sound came behind him. He turned and sighed. "Should have known that where I find vampires, I'll find zombies."

"Kreeah!" The 5 zombies moved forwards. Alexander pulled out his blade.

"Im Namen des Herr, unreiner Seelen der lebenden Verstorbenen wird gelegen werden zu ruhen," he intoned, beckoning forward.

Lana returned to her room, and unpacked her belongings. She sighed at how easily she had been persuaded to stay. You weak minded fool. She walk over to the mirror and gazed at her reflection.

"At least you still have the option to leave." She addressed her image. "And who knows, things may improve."

She shook her head causing her hair to tumble about her shoulders. Scraping her hands through it, she put a band in to keep it out of her face.
Satisfied that she was ready to face the world again, she walked over to the door and walked outside.

((Come to the graveyard))


"Please. Do you really think you can defeat me?" Alexander said, slicing a zombie in half. "Pathetic creatures. You are unworthy to die by my sword's blade." A pentagram appeared around him. "Banishment!" A massive ring of light shot from him, destroying the foolish creatures. "Heh."

Lana took a slow stroll around the grounds. She began humming some sad lament as she went on her way. Looking around she noticed that there were few people about. Must still be early, she mused.

She let her eyes wander across the scene surrounding her. So much to do in one place. Although most of it was pretty dull doing it on your own. She sighed. If I was at home, I'd be with my friends. She felt her heart start to sink.

She continued to walk.

Kain had decided to leave things be. He understood what was going on..but there was nothing he could do. Not as he was, too weak. Or so he thought, the Brightblade was still in his hands, it sustained him still, his bloodlust gone, his mind filled with clarity. Without the blade, Kain might have done something very foolish, if though loyal. They where right to not allow me to know about this...


" Granting rest to the dead I see." Kain's voice was soft, and echoed in the graveyard eeriely, his voice eminating from behind him.

Alexander turned to see Kain.

There was nothing but fog, it covered the ground, suffocating it almost. Slowly, Kain formed from the mist, his features forming, along with the Brightblade. He stood there, watching shrouded by the darkenss and fog. He walked forward and looked at one of the fallen zombies, his body becoming more clear, the Birghtblade had a dull black shine to it.

"Indeed, that existance is not worth living." Kain reflected upon the zombie's demise, it's resurrection was just cruel. No-one deserved that, at that state of exisatance at least.

Lana finally reached the pool. She sat down on a chair and stared into the water. The relection of the sun of the slightly breeze blown ripples made her yearn to jump in.

Damn! Why didn't I put some swimwear on?

She walked over to the edge of the pool and sat down; her legs dangling into the cool, refreshing water.

(ooc: there is no graveyard...why the hell would there be a graeyard at a school whne the teachers don't plan on dying any time soon, and protect the students...oh well...rp it..it could get intereseting..)

Lana finally reached the pool. She sat down on a chair and stared into the water. The relection of the sun of the slightly breeze blown ripples made her yearn to jump in.

She walked over to the edge of the pool and sat down; her legs dangling into the cool, refreshing water.
Elaïne had had a walk in the park. She was trying to wash away her doubts.

Zacharian told me Rave and he would handle the situation. So I won't intervene.

She spotted someone on the edge of the pool.

Strange how I keep on meeting her, she thought as she was heading in Lana's direction.

IC:
Marie walks into the telekenetics class. She normally taught water elementals, but since no student showed potential in the elements, she would take Genesis' place until she got back from Underaloz. She knew where they were and what they were doing. She just hoped that they got back soon...she hoped they would still be alive...it was Vaughn and Rave's last chance... She sat at the desk and twirled an orb as she waited for her studnets to arrive.

http://games.activision.com/games/orphen/images/front_orphen2.gif *Your beloved Qui...for those who tg'd me wanting to post a pic of him*

Joshua now in a state of pure rage walkeed into the gym and began punching a punching bag with his bare fists. Around his 2nd punch he had so much rage in his he punched a hole through it and kept beating it till it was empty.


Phoenix tired of all the death around him began to walk towards the academy

((anyone want me to add my little friend Phoenix's pic with out his arrmor))

(*cries* :cry: there is no cemetary...ah well.. Josh..don't you have telekenetics? :roll: )

((anyone want me to add my little friend Phoenix's pic with out his arrmor))

Kenja raises her hand.

Lana began to slowly kick her legs back and forth. She liked swimming, liked the feel of her body moving through the water. She wondered how long it would take to walk back to her dorm and pick up a costume.

Then again, there was no one around, she could easily swim in her underwear. What was a bikini anyway, other than underwear? She stood up and walked over to a chair. She slipped her dress off and dived into the inviting water.

She did a couple of lengths, before stopping and allowing herself to gentle float on the surface. She closed her eyes against the sun and let herself gently drift.

((lol. And thanks let him finish shreading the punching bag 6 seconds later Done))
Joshua feeling a bit better began to walk towards his telekenetics class. He still had much rage left in him. But he had classes first.
--------------------------------------
Kelly still at the pool had to reist the urge to cannon ball in. Insted she dived in perfictly without causeing any waves

((And there is the part vampire Elite that knows how to back hand Joshua 3 times in 2 seconds))

Elaïne was observing Lana.

In fact, she is perfect, she thought.

She walked to the pool and sat on the edge.

Kenja caught up with Joshua on the way to telekenetics.
Kenja: That's three vampires gone to Underaloz. *Joshua had a "what?" expression on his face. * Genesis has left for there as well..Marie is covering the class...

______

Qui left the A.C. room. He was now in charge of the school given both Genesis' and Daja's disappearance. He walked out the main hall to the pool. he never was one to go swimming, but suddenly felt a need to.
He pulled off his black shirt over his head, revealing his strength and definition. He took off the embleem from around his neck, as well as his cut-off gloves and brass knuckles he had used. His body was extremely tense from all that had happed.
He walked over to the pool, and was about to dive in when he saw Lana. He was totally speechless. He tried to form words but he couldn't...he may have been able to back hand Joshua all week, but with women...he melted. He didn't let it show though...and kept his tough exterior. He finally dove in.

Kelly saw Qui dive in and was shocked to see the person who was back handing Joshua (keep it up) swiming. She quickly dove in.
-------------------------------------
"Ok they went where?" Joshua asks with a dumbfounded look.

Lana slowly let her feet fall until they touched the bottom of the pool. She felt the water running off her hair and down her back. She turned and was surprised to see someone else there. Elaïne.

Startled, she smiled nervously and made her way over to the edge. "It looked so inviting." She laughed embarrassedly. She moved over to get out of the pool, then realised that she was in her underwear. Not wanting Elaïne to think her strange, she changed her mind and stayed in.

She felt even more relief that she had remained emerced in the water when other person came along and dived in. Her cheeks began to take on a slight blush.

Elaïne smiled at Lana.

"You don't have to blush. Just do as you please. There is nothing wrong in your bahevior. Even if you were naked, I don't see anything here to be ashamed of."

(OOC: ALL OF YOU: if you wanna know what had happened with the Rave/Vaughn affair: http://www.nationstates.net/forum/viewtopic.php?p=1381492#1381492 )

"So water fine for you?" Kelly asks as she swims to the bottem and sits down there

Kenja: Underaloz or something...Qui won't clue me in on what's happening...*they entered the class room*

Marie: Kenja, Joshua...nice to see you two again.


Kenja: Hey Marie...^_^

___________________________________

Qui surfaced and pulled himself to the edge. He looked around, and slightly laughed at the antics of Lana. He pulled himself up onto the waterfall ledge. He lays in the sun for a while and closes his eyes, letting the water bead up on his skin.
http://images.meredith.com/bhg/images/08/a_1278751.gif

Kelly feeling like having some fun swims back to the surface and gett out and cannon balls in to the pool. "HELL YA!" she shouted as she hit the water.
----------------------------------------------------
"I don't think we have met," Joshua says to Marie

Marie: I have seen you last year...I taught water elementals and was at the ceremony...so I have seen you before..*smiles*

______

Qui:Mm...sun is nice... *lays there* Agh!
Qui shoots up as a LOT of water hits him from a cannon ball. He was caught so offguard, that he fell off the ledge and into the pool. He surfaces apparently unamused, and swims to the edge.

Kelly resurfaces and sees she knocked Qui into the watter and swims over to him and says "Sorry I didn't mean to knock you into the pool. Arn't you Qui?"
--------------------------------
"Yet I havn't met you," Joshua says

Qui: * in a "cat who just got thrown into water tone* Yes...I am. *he pulls himself up onto the side, letting the water drip off him and the sun warm him again.*

Zed stepped outside. I shouldn't have taken my armor off. This place is too cold for someone like me.(He's from a planet about the same distance from it's sun as Venus)

He walked back to his dorm, sat down and watched some TV. He flipped through the channels before finding the spanish channel. These shows crack me up.

-----------

Domino vaults over the edge of a building and lands silently on the sidewalk. Using her powers, she makes it so anyone who sees her gets confused and dismisses her as some shadow.


OOC: Crap! Wrong nation.... brb

Marie: True..*she smiles*

(classes aren't going to be rp'd due to the confusion of last time...the status is Joshua: IN class..Kenja: In class...if that makes any sense)

"So how many back hands you got on Joshua? Also Phoenix is here somewhere," Kelly says as she pushes off and swims under.
-----------------
Phoenix where are you? Joshua wonders to himself

Lana ran her hands through her hair, sending the remaining excess water to run down her shoulders and back. She laughed lightly at the thought of herself ever jumping into a pool naked. I'm not that brave.

She turned and watched the antics of Kelly and Qui, as they messed around in the water.

Kelly quickly resurfaces infront of Lana and says "Boo."

Lana ran her hands through her hair, sending the remaining excess water to run down her shoulders and back. She laughed lightly at the thought of herself ever jumping into a pool naked. I'm not that brave.

She turned and watched the antics of Kelly and Qui, as they messed around in the water.

"Have you thought about my proposition?" Elaïne asked her.

Lana steps back slightly as Kelly appears just in front of her.

"What havn't seen a Elite pop up out of the water. It is like my seond home," Kelly says with a smirk

Lana turns back to Elaïne. "You mean your offer to teach me?"

Qui: *says softly* More than the days he has lived...*he smiles at this and jumps toward the ledge. He grabs the edge with his hands and pulls himself up. He did not like being thrown in the water, nor startled by water, nor falling into water...No wonder you hardly ever saw him swimming. He looked over Kelly, Lana, and Elaine below, then closed his eyes and continued to take in the sun. Water gathered in the definitions on his skin, enhancing his muscles even further than they were already. His crimson eyes dazzeled and shown in the sun as he watched a shadow.*

Kelly sumerges again and swims over to the edge and climbs out and fixes her hair and streches. she starts putting on her arrmor again and activates Dekker.

"What havn't seen a Elite pop up out of the water. It is like my seond home," Kelly says with a smirk

She laughed. "I've never seen an Elite. Let alone one in water."

"Well there are 4 here and you have seen 1 already," Kelly says as she finishes her leg arrmor. This is a bitch to keep putting back on she thinks

Lana sighed as she watched Kelly getting into her clothes. "I'll bear that in mind."

Lana turns back to Elaïne. "You mean your offer to teach me?"
"Yes."

Domino dropped the shadow. "You love to show off, don't you now Qui?"

She looked at the others as she walked into the pool area and smiled. As she looked at Qui, Domino puts a disgusted look on her face just to see his reaction.

Kelly final fully suited up seals all openings and starts to play her music on the internal speakers and jumps into the pool to see if her arrmor would work

Lana smiled at Elaïne. She felt comfortable around her. "Yes, I have thought about it." She raised her eyes until they caught hers. "I am interested. I'm not sure I'll be a very good pupil, but I'm willing."

Suddenly a big wave of water rushes around thanks to the added weight of the arrmor

Lana smiled at Elaïne. She felt comfortable around her. "Yes, I have thought about it." She raised her eyes until they caught hers. "I am interested. I'm not sure I'll be a very good pupil, but I'm willing."
"I'm sure I'd be a very good teacher either," Elaïne replied with a kind smile. "But I don't envision this as a teacher - pupil relationship. I can see through your eyes you have many questions and many things you would like to know. Let us take all this as regular conversations."

Domino stares at the almost comical site of a fully armored warrior splashing around in a pool.

Lana looked puzzled. "So you mean, I ask you a question, and you try to answer it?" She suddenly felt the wash from Kelly's jump into the pool.

Kelly sinks to the bottem and waits to feel any water through her arrmor and dosn't feel any. "Shit how am I going to get out now?" Kelly asks Dekker.

Qui was relaxing, finally. And minding his own business on the ledge taking in the sun. Then, suddenly, a huge wave of water passes over him, getting him completely soaked. This time, he did not fall off. He stood up and glared over the water.
Qui: Bloody hell..*his eyes turn deep crimson, and he brings his arms up. AS he brings them down swiftly, a vibrational surge is sent through the water and his point at with a mile radius. The people would clearly get the message. He jumped off the legde to the side of the pool, still completely drenched.

"Well nice going just jump up to that ladder and you'll be fine," Dekker says with a sigh.

Lana looked puzzled. "So you mean, I ask you a question, and you try to answer it?" She suddenly felt the wash from Kelly's jump into the pool.
"Yes, that's how I saw it," Elaïne continued on the same soothing tone. "But you have to choose what you want to know because some questions need more than a verbal answer to be fully replied."

Lana nodded. "I think I understand." She turned her head slightly as she watched Kelly at the bottom of the pool. "Is she alright?"

Kelly looked up and did a thumbs up and walked under the ladder and jumped up to the lowest rung and starts to climb up

Domino just shook her head. "You certainly don't like water, do you Qui? I think it's rather funny..."

She looks down into the pool at the Elite. "I do hope that suit is sealed though."

Qui begins to get dressed. Apparently extremely unamused at this experiance. He muttered to him self, something like "females" as he put his brass knuckles back on. Then he but the cut off black studded gloves over them as his hair was messed up from the water.

Qui: Not funny...Phalanxian, no?*he shot Kelly a glance and then looked to domino* No...I hate water...*he smiled slightly and began to put on his shirt*

Kelly looked up and did a thumbs up and walked under the ladder and jumped up to the lowest rung and starts to climb up

"I think you have your answer," Elaïne said to Lana in a laugh.

"Sorry .Didn't mean to get any other victms," Kelly says with a smirk.

Qui scoffs at Kelly, and finally gets his shirt on and begins to fix his hair. When did telekenetics end? he was to pay Joshua a small visit...he wondered if Joshua liked brass knuckles... :twisted:

Qui smiles at domino, and makes his way around the edge of the pool.

Phoenix now fully hidden in the shadows sighs again and punches the ground leaving a impact crater.

Qui feels a slight vibration in the ground.
Qui: I hope it's the good brother...*he chuckles to himself and heads toward the epicenter of the vibration*

Lana took the time to study the people around her. If I was here a million years, I still don't think I'd understand them any better.

She turned to Elaïne and laughed. "I guess that's an example of a non-verbal answer?"

Lana took the time to study the people around her. If I was here a million years, I still don't think I'd understand them any better.

She turned to Elaïne and laughed. "I guess that's an example of a non-verbal answer?"

"You learn fast!" Elaïne replied laughing even more. "I can understand you feel disoriented but, trust me, you have all it takes to fully comprehend your surrounding."

It could be her, she thought.

Domino looks after Qui and then at the others. "This place is weird. Even for my tastes." She dries one of the soaked chairs with some heat and sits down. Looking at the sky Domino mutters about the sun, and creates a small shadow above her.

Lana sighed. "I don't believe I'll ever understand what's going on here." She let her eye fall on the others at the pool. "I know not to set my goals too high."

She made her way over to the ladder and got out. Realising that she didn't have a towel, she walked over and put her dress back on. The water seeping into the material.

She walked back over to Elaïne. "I do feel better already. Thank you, for everything you're doing for me." She looked her in the eyes, genuine gratitude lay in her gaze. "I don't know why you are, but I'm grateful." She smiled.

Qui stretched and shook his head, letting some of the water from his hair fall on Phoenix. He smiled and looked at the small crateor in the ground.
Qui: Hey.*he smiles slightly at the only person who back handed Joshua more than he did*

Lana sighed. "I don't believe I'll ever understand what's going on here." She let her eye fall on the others at the pool. "I know not to set my goals too high."

She made her way over to the ladder and got out. Realising that she didn't have a towel, she walked over and put her dress back on. The water seeping into the material.

She walked back over to Elaïne. "I do feel better already. Thank you, for everything you're doing for me." She looked her in the eyes, genuine gratitude lay in her gaze. "I don't know why you are, but I'm grateful." She smiled.

Elaïne smiled, standing up.

"I'll take it this is the first question. I don't believe in coincidence. It is my opinion we were meant to meet. Beside, this happened at quite a strange moment of my life."

She looked deeply at Lane.

"And I like who you are."

Could she be? This would make sense... given the situation.

She then remembered the symbol in the sand.

I have it in mind now. So who know?

Domino looks at Lana. "What courses ar you taking here? You seem to have promise in a few fields..."

Lana laughed. "You like who I am?" She shook her head in wonder. "Would that be the person who gives up very quickly, when the going gets a little tough?"

She sighed, then turned briefly to Domino. "I'm taking Manipulation and AC. What about you?"

"Hey," Phoenix says with out even turning around.

Lana laughed. "You like who I am?" She shook her head in wonder. "Would that be the person who gives up very quickly, when the going gets a little tough?"

She sighed, then turned briefly to Domino. "I'm taking Manipulation and AC. What about you?"

As she didn't want to intervene in the conversation with Domino, Elaïne sent this simple message into Lana's head.

He, who never doubts, fails.

Domino smiles. "I'm not a student. I was sent here from Hades to investigate things, in light of... recent events. Manipulations... Good choice. I think you will do well. And I don't think you'll give up at it either. It's much too rewarding."

OOC: for those interested, here is Elaïne:
http://underaloz.free-host.com/elaine.jpg

OOC: Nice. Very nice. And here is Domino, if you wanted to know.(no rhyme intended)

Kain had a great deal of things on his mind. He was at the pool area, away from most of the people, looking around contemplating.

He sighed, he was at inner turmoil. Now he kind of knew how Raveyln felt. Two sides, battling for control, each with thier own promises.

He looked into the water, and saw his own reflection. His green leathery skin, his brown complex eyes, his long white hair, and his talons. A very different sight from what he was used to.

He had found that his behaviour had changed, he had become more aggressive. Kain left the Brightblade in his room, with his own secruity measures, not that it needed it.

Looking at the people from the hieght than Kain was sitting, he looked down. Seemed so, happy. Only thinking that thought for a few seconds, Kain went into a morbid inward contemplation, sitting upon on of the rock formations near the pool.

Lana 'hearing' the words in her head, suddenly felt very humble. She turned slightly and mouthed to Elaïne. "Thank you." Then smiled.

Looking back at Domino. "Yes, I heard that all the courses here were worthwhile." She crinkled her brow. "So you're not a student?"

Hades, reminds me of home.

Qui: *noticing his tone* You've heard what happened then...

"Yes. I've heard. That is why I am hidden in the shadows. There scilence is the only thing that helps me with my burden," Phoenix says.

Domino looked at her. "No. I was one of the people that hunted down the serial killer that plauged the city a few months ago. I ended up dying. It seems that even what kills you can make you stronger." She smiles. A harsh thing to look at, but it was meant in a friendly way.

Ah. The serial killer. That is what started it all. If I had never have went there to help....

Stop thinking like that. It will only only drive you insane. Anyway, existance is better like this.


Isn't it?

Domino looked at Kain. You should shield your mind better... How are you doing, friend?

Lana looked stunned. "Oh, so you aren't alive then?" She looked at the people around her. Most of them seemed to be classed as dead.

Thank you for the adivse, I am relearning. I am...troubled. As you can see I have changed dramaticly. I am no longer human.

Kain continued to stare blankly outwards, thinking.

Lana looked stunned. "Oh, so you aren't alive then?" She looked at the people around her. Most of them seemed to be classed as dead.
"Well, they are speaking with us. So what do you think they really are? Would you call that death?" Elaïne said to Lana.

Lana turned to Elaïne, looking slightly foolish. "I guess I'm just having trouble with the whole dying part." She lowered her eyes.

Lana turned to Elaïne, looking slightly foolish. "I guess I'm just having trouble with the whole dying part." She lowered her eyes.
"Actually, there are many levels of death. Someone is still reachable as long as he hasn't been detroyed within the body and the soul."

And I hope Rave will reach my brother.

Qui: I see...it might not be the last time you see that angel...see ya around. *he smiles and walked back inside the main building to dry off.*

"Also you do know what happend to Joshua?" Phoenix asks Qui.

Domino looks at them. "Oh, I'm quite dead. Just bieng kept alive by order of Anubis. After a few years of service to him, I'll be free to take back my life."


She looks to Kain. Outward appearance cannot change who you are.

Kain slowly got up, and jumped down. He walked off back inside and headed to the AC room. He wanted to vent some of his frustrations.


It is not only my apperances which have changed freind...

"Also you do know what happend to Joshua?" Phoenix asks Qui.

Qui: unfortunately he's perfectly fine :twisted: ...in telekenetics right now I presume.

"I'm talking when he wasn't here," Phoenix said standing up.

Qui: Discovered his "Inner Vampire"...no worries though...not a full blood like me.

ooc: God fucking damn me and my inopertune vacation time. Could someone please go over the main points of this thread for me? i most certainly dont have time to read all 30 some pages.

"No something worse happened. He was assassinated in Raves hands," Phoenix says takes off his helmet

ooc: God f--- damn me and my inopertune vacation time. Could someone please go over the main points of this thread for me? i most certainly dont have time to read all 30 some pages.

This is all you know:
Rave is dead. She died sacrificing her life for Vaughn. Vaughn and Genesis have left for Underaloz. Genesis has gone with him.

Telekenetics started today with Marie in place of Genesis for a teacher.

Qui uses Joshua as a hacky-sac...nothing new.

People are talking at the pool right now.

"Actually, there are many levels of death. Someone is still reachable as long as he hasn't been detroyed within the body and the soul."

And I hope Rave will reach my brother.

Lana sighed deeply and dropped herself into a chair. "There's far too much to take in." She laughed, then stopped. "How does a living being understand what it's like to have died and yet still live? It's like my head wants to take it all in, yet at the same time pretend it's not happening."

Qui: Really? He doesn't look dead to me...*damn my luck* (he adds softly)

"Rave saved his life. She risked hers to bring him back," Phoenix says "He is one of the most efected. I think he still had some of Raves blood in him."

Lana sighed deeply and dropped herself into a chair. "There's far too much to take in." She laughed, then stopped. "How does a living being understand what it's like to have died and yet still live? It's like my head wants to take it all in, yet at the same time pretend it's not happening."

Elaïne sat next to her.

"You're confused because you're confusing living and functionning. Once you draw a clear line between the 2 concepts, you'll understand what death means." She looked around her. "We're made of energy. Even modern science will tell you that. Now, what defines a being? A group of energies. The ones you are used to comprehend are ones inside a lot of others. Namely matter..." She touched Lana's arm. "... and soul." Lane felt touched in her soul as Elaïne looked inside her eyes. "You can have one of these energies eliminated and still exist. Only when all of them have disapeared are you really gone."

She paused.

"Was it clear enough?"

Qui: *turns around* No...the blood must be gone by now....but the effects can last for years... *he contemplated on that fact...he had always had Rave's blood in him...go figure. :roll: *

"Trust me Joshua is becoming more vampire than human every day," Phoenix said "I'm slowly changing as well."

Domino's eyes flashed. "Time for me to check in with my superiors," she stood and a wispy shadow rose from her feet and covered her completely, then the shadow faded and she was gone.

---------

Zed turned off the TV and put his armor on. Stepping outside, he wanders around the grounds for a while.

Lana continued to look into Elaïne's eyes. "I think I understand, although it's still hard to imagine. A body without a soul, a soul without a body. It's like something out of a dream." She wrinkled her brow. "How did you do that?"

Kain burst into the Ac room and looked around. No-one here. Good.

Going to the moniter on the wall, he got a few dummies up. Kain had no weapon, only his cloven hands for knifes.

Roaring, Kain charged into the fist one, shearing it acroos his waist then jumping cutting his face. Spring midair from that dummy, he launched himself to the next one, claws outstreached grabbing the dummy and throwing it down onto the ground.

Kain's face was contorted with suppressed rage, he felt the bloodlust now more than had ever done. He used it to his advantage and channeled his raw fury and frsutration into his attacks.

He hurled the dummy down, and shreaded it swiftly. He got up from the gorund and saw another one, this one was made of metal. Kain launched his fist into it, and the metal gave way. He tried something new, he backfliped going on his hands and grabbed the dummy with his feet. His feet could be used as hands, and they where just as sharp.

Continuing the backflip, he brought the dummy with him, cluched in his feet. Kain was on top of it now when he finshed, and landed a swift puch to it's throat, which would have been fatal.

And yet, Kain still for all his anger unleashed had plenty more. He was angry because he was frustrated. Frustrated that he had not done anything for Rave after she had saved him.

Kain launched into another dummy, trying to forget, but all of his memories, the lack of options and Ravelyn stayed with him, and that drove him even more mad.

Lana continued to look into Elaïne's eyes. "I think I understand, although it's still hard to imagine. A body without a soul, a soul without a body. It's like something out of a dream." She wrinkled her brow. "How did you do that?"

"Years of practice, but it is far less complicated than you may imagine." Elaïne answered.

She took Lana hand and put it on hers.

"See, you touched one of my energies. Touching others is as simple, as soon as you know where your hands are."

Lana looked down at her hand, as she listened. "It's a matter of knowledge and belief." She caught Elaïne's gaze in her's. "Once you know where to look and can believe you will see, the answer is right there."

"Trust me Joshua is becoming more vampire than human every day," Phoenix said "I'm slowly changing as well."
Qui: Well...if you ever need me to beat the last bit of vampire out of him.*he chuckles slightly* let me know..*he makes his way to the main hall*

Zed walks past Qui and stops. "It's about damn time I found you. Hold up."

He reaches into his pocket and pulls out a chip. Putting it into a portable reader, a hologram appears.

It takes the shape of a man in a jumpsuit. "Greetings, Qui Shentavo. I, Lord Reil Tian of the Empire of Crimmond, hereby send my sympathy for the death of your ruler. I have seen the past reports of her death and I hope there is a way to fix this one as well. Again, I send my sympathy." The holo-image bows his head and the hologram cuts out.

Looking at Qui's surprised look, Zed elaborates. "News travels fast. I recieved the orders to deliver that last night, but couldn't find you." Zed then bows and walks outside.

Qui: Oh, don't worry about it..I was...erm...busy last night anyhow...thank you. *he says and nods to Zed*

Lana looked down at her hand, as she listened. "It's a matter of knowledge and belief." She caught Elaïne's gaze in her's. "Once you know where to look and can believe you will see, the answer is right there."

Elaïne smiled again.

"See may prove to be an inadequate word, but it is the idea. Now you see this kind of things have strictly nothing to do with powers."

She understands fast. If it's her...

Katarina walks in the door un-announced, clothed in her usual black attire. Something seems different about her however, nothing obvious, just a nagging at the back of her old classmates minds, a little discontinuity in the fabric of their lives. She nods to the receptionist, and asks for the key to her old room.



This year Katarina will be taking Elementals, A.M., A.C., and i plan to sit in upon a few more.

She understands fast. If it's her...

OOC: What are these litte comments for?

She understands fast. If it's her...

OOC: What are these litte comments for?

OOC: these are the thoughts of Elaïne. A nice way to let the other player know there is a possibility for something more that what's just said between the characters ;)

Elaïne smiled again.

"See may prove to be an inadequate word, but it is the idea. Now you see this kind of things have strictly nothing to do with powers."

She understands fast. If it's her...

Lana smiled. "Finding the right word isn't one of my strong points. But I know what you mean." She again let her eyes fall on the people around. "If I could do just half of what the others here have achieved, I would consider myself happy." She ran her hand through her damp hair. "With your help, I hope to understand them all, and I may even find myself."

Phoenix still enraged punches a tree and litteraly breaks it in half. I walk a dark road. A lone road. Yet this pain is from others. Phoenix thinks as he remembers a old proverb

Qui turns and watches, amused at the tree snapping in half. Qui holds up his hands and rights it.
Qui: Mend.*he commanded, and the tree mended itself...he could manipulate any living thing to such a degree...plus he didn't want to do any work on hauling the tree out of there later. He smiled, and went off to find Joshua. Telekenetics was almost over*

Lana smiled. "Finding the right word isn't one of my strong points. But I know what you mean." She again let her eyes fall on the people around. "If I could do just half of what the others here have achieved, I would consider myself happy." She ran her hand through her damp hair. "With your help, I hope to understand them all, and I may even find myself."

"Well. Most of them have no clue how they can do what they do. Take this Kain for instance. He's probably the most lost in all the Academy. Trying to do what they do doesn't appear to me as the best path. I see it as a dead end."

Elaïne fixed her hair.

"Observation is the key. But you must observe your own energy before being able to fully use it in interaction with your surrounding. The good old 'Know yourself'."

She had a cynical smile.

"Most people try to enhance. They excercise in order to strengthen what they already know. Most of them don't realize there must be more than a thousand different senses... and I'm almost certain I'm far from knowing them all. Same goes for the effectors..." she looked at Lana and decided she should better explain what she meant. "... the means to act on your surrounding."

She paused.

"But don't worry. Like I said most of this is as easy as looking around," she said in laugh, her eyes wandering in the sky.

Zed walks into the poolarea and looks over the others there. After removing his helmet, he sits down in a chair,the wieght of muscle and armor making it snap and creak, the break, sending him ploping to the ground. "Ooops."

He gets up and sits on a flat rocky outcroping and hopes it won't break too.

Kelly still at the pool area laughs as Zed breaks the chair and climbs up on to a rock her self

Elaïne turned at Zed, watching him as he was making his way from the broken chair to the rocks.

"Exercised too much?"

Zed laughs. "Just forgot I was wearing the armor. It adds 400 lbs to my wieght."

Trying to take in everything that Elaïne has said, Lana turns and watches Zed and Kelly. She subconsciously takes a piece of hair and begins to plait it, something she had done since childhood.

So, the answer is to feel what's happening around you and act on that. Just kind of open yourself up to receive and do. Subconciously rather than consciously. She sighed as she shook her head. I'm way out of my depth.

Elaïne's eyes were looking straight before her.

"If you wanna get into this, then I guess I should explain you the 'Let go' principle."

She turned at Lana.

"This is something quite simple. Do you want to know?"

At her tone, Lana could tell this was an important decision.

Kain had enough of the vviolance, he needed sustinace. He had brought some in a vial. It was contained in a hard leather flask on his waist, Kain took it an opened it up and drank the red liquid.

Once again, the clouds cleared and the fog of basic instinct cleared. Kain's mind was clarfied. The questions still remained, but the frsutration of Ravelyns death was dimineshed somewhat.

Kain promptly left the AC room, and headed for the AM room, his strides long, he was in somewhat of a rush, he was ready. He needed to test his mental side.

Seni looked at Kain as he walked in and greeted him with a smile. The orb of energy before Seni vanished, and he walked toward Kain.

Zed looks at the deep blue sky and shakes his head. "I'll never get used to that color sky. When you grow up with green skys and yellowish clouds, blue and white just doesn't seem natural." He shrugs and pulls out a candy bar.

Phoenix still in a stae of rage started walking to the Gym. As soon as he entered the gym he began removing his arrmor
------------------------------------
"Trust me I'm used to having bullets flying over my head and morter shells extremly close by," Kelly says

Elaïne's eyes were looking straight before her.

"If you wanna get into this, then I guess I should explain you the 'Let go' principle."

She turned at Lana.

"This is something quite simple. Do you want to know?"

At her tone, Lana could tell this was an important decision.

Lana looked at Elaïne strangely, before a light dawned in her eyes. "I'm sorry. I forget you can 'hear' what I'm thinking." She nodded her head slowly. "Yes, I want to know."

Feeling bored, Zed turns on his music system and listens to the Assault Marine's battle song, Iron Man.

;)

Lana looked at Elaïne strangely, before a light dawned in her eyes. "I'm sorry. I forget you can 'hear' what I'm thinking." She nodded her head slowly. "Yes, I want to know."

"Actually, I simply read on your face. It's amazing what expressions can let know about people's internal struggles."

Elaïne turned her chair in order to be right in front of Lana.

"The 'Let go' principle is amazingly easy. Once you know it, you use it without even thinking about it. It's a simple mean to reach a goal. I don't know if you ever practiced with a bow but that's the best image. Picture the goal as your target and achievement as having the arrow hitting the target."

She paused to let Lana relax a bit.

"What's amazing with a bow is that you pull the cord and, all in a sudden, you let go. There is no need for you to look at the arrow flying, there is no need to push it in the right direction. As soon as you let the arrow go, you know it'll reach the target. You can do whatever you want to after you let go, no matter, the arrow will reach the target."

She paused again.

"Simple, isn't it? And the beauty of it is that the bow, the arrow and the target can be anything. Think about the different shapes of energy that form a being and you'll see all the possibilities this simple principle offers. You are the bow, what you want to do is the target and you don't even need to bother about the arrow because, as soon as you let it go, no matter what, you know the goal with be achieved."

OoC: Hi, is it to early to preregister for the next round?

OoC: Hi, is it to early to preregister for the next round?TG Rave.

Yes...we just started that year..I'll tg you when we have a third year...if we do. :twisted:

Kelly bored outa her fuggin mind activates the Elite theme song Voices.
-------------------------------------
Phoenix now with out arrmor on walks over to a punching bag and starts to beat is into a pulp.

Lana sat and thought for a moment. "And it's that easy? I set myself a goal, I let myself go and I achieve?" Her face clouded over. "I just need to know the right amount of energy to apply to reach that goal. The pulling back on the string, so to speak."

Lana sat and thought for a moment. "And it's that easy? I set myself a goal, I let myself go and I achieve?" Her face clouded over. "I just need to know the right amount of energy to apply to reach that goal. The pulling back on the string, so to speak."

"With some practice, you'll see that the amount of energy does not matter. You simply need to truly know the bow and the target. That is you and your surroundings. The more precise your vision of them is, the more accurate you will be. In the end, this all comes back to observation. If you truly know yourself and what your goal is, you'll achieve it. The path to get to it or the means used are of no importance. You are the bow, not the arrow."

Lana leant forward in her seat. "So, I visualise myself achieving my goal, and I will achieve it." She looked into herself, as she thought. "The means to achieve it will sort itself out."

Phoenix punches a hole in the bag but keeps beatting it with his fists. He eventualy starts to kick it with such force it starts to fly from side to sid with each kick.

Lana leant forward in her seat. "So, I visualise myself achieving my goal, and I will achieve it." She looked into herself, as she thought. "The means to achieve it will sort itself out."

All in a sudden, Elaïne threw a coin out of her pocket in direction of Lana's face. Instinctively, Lana caught it.

"Tell me," Elaïne immediatly said. "At what point have you thought about the muscles and articulations you needed to use to catch that coin?"

She smiled.

Phoenix still in a state where combat is the only escape keept beating the punching bag and with one swift kick kicked it clean in half. He still needed more. He moved to another punching bag and began beatting on it.

Lana raised her eyes to Elaïne's. "Instinct. Natural Reaction. No thought." She looked at the coin in her hand. "I knew my goal, and I achieved it."

Zed looked bored with the current conversation. He knew what they were saying, but he already knew the meaning. It had kept him alive many times.

Lana raised her eyes to Elaïne's. "Instinct. Natural Reaction. No thought." She looked at the coin in her hand. "I knew my goal, and I achieved it."

"Exactly. The same way you're breathing at this very moment, the same way you swimmed in that very pool. But you cannot achieve all of this because you already did it, no, you can achieve it because you can picture yourself doing it. Of course, it seems more easy to picture something we already did, but as long as you can truly picture yourself doing something, anything, and forget about the means, then you can do it. Like... I don't know... flying for instance."

She looked in the air with a smile.

"And what goes for the material world goes for all the other energies. Again, it's all a question of perception."

OOC: :shock: Crude, I'm sooo far behind! I wasn't able to get on before this, so I have no idea what's going on. What's up with the new thread, and whats been happening?

Lana crossed her legs and placed her hands in her lap. The coin she held, twiddled trough her fingers. "So, in a way we come back to knowledge of belief." The coin fell from her grasp and landed on the floor. "I learn how to do it and believe I can do it. Then I can achieve anything." She leant over and picked up the coin.

Damn, it's as if she already knew.

"Yes. That's something more you know now," Elaïne answered with a smile.

((Can I get a short form update plz? I'm never going away for a single day like that.))You don't know what you missed. I know. I was here and I don't know what you missed...

What I can piece together. Rave kicked the bucket(you know that), everyone at the academy got moody, Qui went off and shredded some poor bastard in the AC room, Rave gets put in Vaughan's(sp?) body(no one is supposed to know that IC), some other RP starts, Rave/Vaughan(sp?) head across the galaxy to go through some portal to put them back in the right bodies.

I brought in Domino, but she just got her head bit off by Daja and is just sitting on a roof while Zed is wandering around trying to find someone to interact with.

There may be more, but I don't know the details.

Also, I'm off for the night. Not much has changed since this post, except classes have started and most people have accepted the death or are just not commenting on it.

Lana returned her smile. "Knowledge is the easy part. It's finding the belief in yourself that's the problem."

OOC:And Phoenix is on a violent rampage in the gym. He has already trashed on punching bag.

Having been accepted through his association with CIPE, James Kerrigan pulls into the parking lot of the Shentavo Acad. Getting out, he brings along his training gear and personal items in his duffle bag, approaching the main entrance. Not seeing a doorbell, Jim casually knocks at the door, waiting for it to open.

u still accepting or should i wait till year 3

Zed puts on his helmet and activates the uplink to the orbiting ships.

Scanning the news, he finds nothing new and takes his helmet off again.

Staring at the strange blue sky he thinks of his home at the Capital.

Lana returned her smile. "Knowledge is the easy part. It's finding the belief in yourself that's the problem."

Elaïne kept her smile, silent.

She is really good.

So Dekker news update. Kelly says to Dekker in her head
Ok 4 gunmen attacked a school our old friend Zero killed them all. The stock marcket has crashed thanks to a virus. Ad thats about all the good stuff.

u still accepting or should i wait till year 3
Uhh I'm automatically accepted, since I'm in CIPE... 8)

Elaïne kept her smile, silent.

She is really good.

Lana was suddenly puzzled by Elaïne's silence. She searched her face to see if she could find a reason.

She laughed. "I told you I wasn't a very good pupil."

Lana was suddenly puzzled by Elaïne's silence. She searched her face to see if she could find a reason.

She laughed. "I told you I wasn't a very good pupil."

Elaïne laughed.

"I was thinking exactly the contrary!"

Lana felt the heat rising in her cheeks. "If I have learnt anything, it is because you have been a patient teacher..." She smiled. "And a friend."

Lana felt the heat rising in her cheeks. "If I have learnt anything, it is because you have been a patient teacher..." She smiled. "And a friend."

"Oh. I don't think I'm such a good teacher. I rather think you understand things quite well."

She looked deeply at Lana.

"I'm sure you didn't need me to say half of what I said to understand what this was all about, did you?"

Strangely, no one had opened the door, despite 4 minutes of constant nonstop knocking. Eager to test out his strength, Jim then began to bash the door with a body slam, hoping someone inside would realize there is someone outside.

Lana looked at her hands fidgetting in her lap. "Perhaps I had the knowledge, but I needed to gain the belief." She looked up until she meet Elaïne's eyes. "I'm sorry if you feel that I have wasted your time. But I needed to hear your words."

[ooc: you don't need someone to open the door, just go in then meet everyone at the pool area.]

The incessant knocking was getting on katarina's nerves. just as she is turning to let the person in, they begin slamming against it with their body. A rage welled up inside Katarina, despite the fact that she knew he couldnt hurt the doors. "So, try to hurt the academy, will they?". Katarina concentrates, and uses her magic to see the space outside the door. She uses telekinetics to throw jim away from the door, and towards the car.


ooc: Italics in quotes are thoughts, Just italics are actions.

Lana looked at her hands fidgetting in her lap. "Perhaps I had the knowledge, but I needed to gain the belief." She looked up until she meet Elaïne's eyes. "I'm sorry if you feel that I have wasted your time. But I needed to hear your words."

"Why do you always apologize or feel ashamed? This is something beyond my understanding. What can possibly make you lack of confidence that much?"

Her tone was calm and warm... as if she was talking to someone very close, a relative.

Phoenix kept beating the punching bag until it's seams broke and he moved over to one more and started beatting it.

Brian, not knowing what the heck is going on anywhere, walks around the campus, looking for someone to talk to.....

ooc: Oh, didn't know that. Lol. :)

"I guess I lack the belief in myself." She leant back in the chair. "I'm miles away from anyone I know, I feel kind of lost, and I don't want to make enemies too soon. Well, not at all if possible." She sighed. "Apologising seems the best way to avoid that."

OOC:Stay away from the gym. Just a early warning.

"I guess I lack the belief in myself." She leant back in the chair. "I'm miles away from anyone I know, I feel kind of lost, and I don't want to make enemies too soon. Well, not at all if possible." She sighed. "Apologising seems the best way to avoid that."
"Hmmm."

Elaïne leant back in her own chair.

"Why don't you ask for someone to come so that you feel less lonely? I don't think there is any policy against that at the Academy."

It could be seen she was feeling lonely too.

My friends are surely all dead and my brother is lost into Hell. I think I can relate.

OOC: Hitler III respond to Katarina's magical attack. It wont kill, at the most it will crack a few ribs.

"No, I don't want anyone here. It's my first lesson, surviving on my own, and it is only my second day. I'm sure I'll make friends here and then I won't be alone." Lana looked at Elaïne, concern etched into her features. "Are you alright? You seem kind of sad."

"No, I don't want anyone here. It's my first lesson, surviving on my own, and it is only my second day. I'm sure I'll make friends here and then I won't be alone." Lana looked at Elaïne, concern etched into her features. "Are you alright? You seem kind of sad."
"Oh well... I'm always like this you know. That's the price to pay when getting too old I guess," Elaïne said, trying to recompose a better standing. "One piece of advise: take every opportunity to pass time with the ones you love. You never know."

She looked right before her.

"You never know," she repeated to herself.

Lana leant forward. She took Elaïne's hands in hers and looked her deep in the eyes.

"If you ever want to talk to anyone, I am always here, ready to listen." She smiled. "I know you hardly know me, but sometimes talking to strangers is easier than talking to people you know."

Lana leant forward. She took Elaïne's hands in hers and looked her deep in the eyes.

"If you ever want to talk to anyone, I am always here, ready to listen." She smiled. "I know you hardly know me, but sometimes talking to strangers is easier than talking to people you know."

Elaïne stared at Lana. :shock:

My god! It must be her.

"I... Thank you. I appreciate that."

(ooc: now I could try something tricky and weird. Like Elaïne talking to Lana in elvish and Lana actually understanding the sentence. But I wouldn't like to push your character into something you wouldn't want her to get. Let me know ;) )

After bashing the door down failed to work, Jim senses a telepathic message from inside telling him "to go in through the pool entrance, since there is no main door." Recognizing this as a response to his loud and unecessary entrance, Jim gets this things and proceeds to the pool area, until all of the sudden he is flung into a nearby car. Not sure how that happened, he continues onward to the pool entrance.

[ooc: I have no plans for her. If it helps with your story, I'll go along]

Kelly decided to take a swim again so she startedd to remove her arrmor and piled it on the rock she was sitting on

Katarina walks to her room, unpacks, and heads to the pool

ooc: For those of you who dont know Katarina, she is 24 years old, has black hair, and catlike eyes that are usually green but turn red when she is angry.
Now, for a little of her academy history: She came in knowing some simple magics, telekinesis, a little mind magic, etc...
Over the course of the year her powers increased astronomically, climaxing with a side-effect of the genetic enhancements and her magic she had been using appearing and opening her full potential, and with her new power sge raising a demon and a hellmouth in the school, something very few people, even high sorcerers, could do.

[ooc: I have no plans for her. If it helps with your story, I'll go along]
(ooc: all right let's go ;) )

Elaïne intensely looked at Lana.

"I know I can count on you." she said in elvish.

(ooc: assuming Lana will understand ;) )

Kelly now fully out of her arrmor dove directly into the water and resurfaced and wiped the watter from her eyes and swam under again.

Brian is heading towards the pool in the hopes of finding someone, anyone........

Lana squeezed Elaïne's hands and smiled. "And I will always be able to count on you."

Hitler III there is a front door, you just open it....

Lana squeezed Elaïne's hands and smiled. "And I will always be able to count on you."

:shock: Elaïne's mouth opened but no word could get out of it.

It's her. It has to be her.

She remembered her mother's words about re-incarnation: "Do never push for the person to remember. This would be pointless. The person may very well never get the souvenirs back and that's not important. A re-incarnation is just that: a second life. So whenever you encounter someone in such a situation, let the person be."

She tried to get back to her senses but it took more time then she would have thought. Enough, maybe, for Lana to realize the sentence Elaïne told her wasn't that normal.

Telekenetics has ended...
Students that attended:
Joshua and Kenja
one credit

Students are able to move small objects after much consentration.

Joshua was a little shockedd to know that Phoenix has trashed 2 punching bags already which has left him a little worried about him.
"So wana get a drink?" Joshua asks Kenja.

Lana looked at Elaïne, her face full of concern. "Are you alright? Have I said something I shouldn't?" Why is she looking at me as if she's seen a ghost?

She recalled her reply, there was nothing wrong there. Then she remembered Elaïne's words to her. She went silent.

Kenja: Yea sure... This class was easy for me, because Marie is nice...I dread manipulations though...*she smiles and walks with Joshua*

Brian walks up to a chair beside the pool and sits down, not noticing that there is someone there.

Lana looked at Elaïne, her face full of concern. "Are you alright? Have I said something I shouldn't?" Why is she looking at me as if she's seen a ghost?

She recalled her reply, there was nothing wrong there. Then she remembered Elaïne's words to her. She went silent.

"I... err... It's not that important. I was just... checking for your capabilities and it got me... how to phrase it... surprised," Elaïne replied.

She smiled at Lana.

"You wana go to my room and want me to make them or should we just buy them?" Joshua asks as he putts his arm around her waist and walks with her.
-----------------------------
Kelly climbes out of the pool near where Brian is sitting

Lana looked pleadingly at Elaïne. "You have to tell me what's going on." She searched her eyes. "You spoke to me in elvish. I don't speak elvish."


[ooc: Let me know if I go off track anywhere]

[quote="Phalanix"]"You wana go to my room and want me to make them or should we just buy them?" Joshua asks as he putts his arm around her waist and walks with her.


Kenja: *blushes slightly* Umm...wherever...you're room...if that's alright?

"Ok sounds good," Joshua says smiling.

It does doens't it? *she thought to herself as they walked*

"Also you might want to becareful. Phoenix is in a very bad mood. He has already destoryed 2 punching bags with his bare hands," Joshua says to Kenja and he opens his dorm's door

Lana looked pleadingly at Elaïne. "You have to tell me what's going on." She searched her eyes. "You spoke to me in elvish. I don't speak elvish."


[ooc: Let me know if I go off track anywhere]
(OOC: you're perfect. PERFECT :) )

Elaïne seemed to hesitate.

Do I want to lie to her? Do I want to turn her nuts?

She took a deep breathe.

"What do you know about re-incarnation?"

As subtle as a troll, she thought.

Suddenly a roilimg shadow appears over a field and Domino flys out, landing hard. As she gets up a voice booms out: Bak Lo han Se!

Domino looks back and shouts, "Bra kay narp! Koort," and the shadow dissappeared.

She sighed and saw that she was righ outside the academy....

--------

Zed walks out of the pool area to the barwhen he hears the booming voice Back low have? He looks around, confused, but then enters the bar and orders a bourban.

Lana placed her head in her hands and laughed. "Re-incarnation? I'm understanding elvish and you are talking re-incarnation?" She shook her head and took a deep breath. "There has to be a simple reason for this. I must have heard it before."


[ooc: just guide me though, if you want to go in a particular direction]

Lana placed her head in her hands and laughed. "Re-incarnation? I'm understanding elvish and you are talking re-incarnation?" She shook her head and took a deep breath. "There has to be a simple reason for this. I must have heard it before."


[ooc: just guide me though, if you want to go in a particular direction]
(ooc: well, the less I guide you, the best the RP will be since Lana is not supposed to know or to believe in what Elaïne believes ;) Beside I love how you RP your character)

"Of course, you have heard it before. Problem is I spoke in ancient Elvish. A form that is not spoken anymore."

Elaïne was strangely serious.

"I... since... The first time I met you, you reminded me of someone I knew well... and the more we discussed, the more similarities I could spot. The way you move, the way you speak, the ideas you have."

She looked at the ground.

"I don't know. It's just that... I don't know."

Kenja: Qui wouldn't let anyone hurt me...Hopefully neither would you? I can handle myself...*was her final conclusion as she entered* He's just going through a rough time..I mean so am I..but I'm more of a mental sufferer than a physical one.

Brian finally notices the company he's with. "Oh, hello. I didn't notice...um, you there." He fumbles at the words a little, not sure of what to say to this beautiful person before him. (is Kelly human?)

"Phoenix has never been one for mental suffering," Joshua says as he opens the door "He has been known to beat his own squadmates up if someone dies that was importan to him."
--------------------------
"Hello there," Kelly says as she holds her self up on a pool ledge.
(she is human)

Kenja: Same with my sire....destroyed Cyro's body completely when he heard the news...couldn't even question him first.
_____

Qui: Off for the hunt again..*he mutters to himself as he gets on his nightmare steed's back. Her rides bareback, no saddle nor reins. He rides around the academy once, making sure that the students were keeping their eyes to themselves. Then he headed back to the stable to get something which looked like a rather large knife...he smiled at the fact that the silvery blade twisted like a crooked pin. He set his sights toward the forest...and headed in that direction, looking back at the academy occasionally*

(out until later...Joshua..I give you permission to NPC Kenja...what have I just done?! lol. :D )

Joshua walked into his dorm and walked into the kitchen and asks "What do you want?"
"I'll just have tea again," Kenja says as she moves to sit down on one of the beds and almost trips in the imprint on the floor.

((what have you done indeed))

*Regaining composure and bowing head slightly* "My name is Brian. A pleasure to met you."

OOC: Sadly, I have to go now. I'll try to be on later, but don't hold me to it.

Lana got up from her chair and paced. "This is crazy. You think I'm a re-incarnation of someone you know?" She laughed. "The first time we met, I almost hit you with a car. And now I remind you of someone you knew well."

She sat back on the chair, silent while she thought. "Oh, I get it. You spoke aloud in elvish, but you gave me the translation straight into my head." She laughed again. "You're playing games with me."

Domino walked across the field rubbing her arm. The cut had healed and the only other sign of the fall was a purple briuse on her lower leg that stoo out against her pale skin. Damn that Jackle...

She watched a figure head past on a creature she had only seen a few times. A Nightmare Steed... Who here can handle one of those? Going down the list she could only think of three; Rave, Qui and Daja. With Rave dead, that left Qui and Daja. Somehow she couldn't see Daja on a Nightmare Steed.

Having fun Qui? She sent to him as she walked towards the academy, You certainly look it.

Lana got up from her chair and paced. "This is crazy. You think I'm a re-incarnation of someone you know?" She laughed. "The first time we met, I almost hit you with a car. And now I remind you of someone you knew well."

She sat back on the chair, silent while she thought. "Oh, I get it. You spoke aloud in elvish, but you gave me the translation straight into my head." She laughed again. "You're playing games with me."

That's my chance. Sometimes, truth is not to be told.

Elaïne laughed, completly changing of attitude.

"That's an important lesson. Never take anything for granted and beware of people you hardly know. They are prone to try and fool you."

She took Lana's hand.

"That's why I think you'll have to work and be more perceptive. If you want, I can help you into sensing other forms of energy than matter."

She smiled.

Now let us hope she'll buy it.

But, even if she managed to hide it perfectly, she was very moved. She had sensed the vibration when Lana answered to her. And this was the same one.

I missed you.

Phoenix finaly ripped the 3rd punchingbag open and left the gym sweating he wold grab his arrmor later.

Lana visible relaxed. "I'm sorry, I guess I over-reacted." She laughed lightly, as she ran her fingers through her untidy hair. "And I'm sorry for aplogising, as I know you don't like that."

She looked Elaïne in the eye. "I would be honoured for you to instruct me. As long as you don't play this trick on me again." A wry smile touched her lips. "I thought I was going mad."

"Don't worry," Elaïne replied with a kind smile. "I do not intend to hurt you and I'll be honored to instruct you."

After all, you instructed me.

(ooc: now this makes for a fantastic setting imo. /me is happy :) )

Phoenix still very pissed off walked out to the pool area and took off his shirt and socks and shoes and dove in.

Vacit is wandering the halls of the Academy trying to get a grasp on his full surroundings. Then he sees the sign leading to the pool.
"Ah, the good Captain said he was going for a swim. Perhaps it is time to see how the Advanced Combat classes are going."
Vacit begins to make his way quickly toward the pool.

Lana took hold of Elaïne's hands. "I pleased to hear that. You're the only friend I have here, I'd hate to lose you already." She looked down at her damp dress. "I think I need to get changed. I'll catch up with you later."


[ooc: I'm glad you're happy. And I'm looking forward to seeing how it pans out.]

Lana took hold of Elaïne's hands. "I pleased to hear that. You're the only friend I have here, I'd hate to lose you already." She looked down at her damp dress. "I think I need to get changed. I'll catch up with you later."


[ooc: I'm glad you're happy. And I'm looking forward to seeing how it pans out.]
(OOC: so am I :) )

Elaïne looked as Lana walked away.

This is my second chance as much as hers, she thought.

Qui travels along the woods...and sees nothing. It was strange the way in the vampiric order, people had such respect for Rave Shentavo...and the Shentavo name itself. Revered in the highest of the society...it was also a feared name. "That devil of an angel.." the words escaped his lips. There was nothing to be found. No invaders...nothing..it was as if they had all vanished in memorial of her death or of the like. He silently made his way back to the stables on Nauru's back, gripping on to the jet black main.

"Wait make that 3 punching bags destoryed by his bare hands," Joshua says as he brings out 2 cups one withtea in it the other with move coffee

Lana walked back to her room, her damped dress sticking to her legs. She entered the room and dropped onto her bed.

"It's certainly been a strange day." She laughed. "And to think I almost fell for that re-incarnation joke."

She looked at the ceiling for a few minutes, before sliding off the bed and getting into the shower.

Phoenix still enraged and still swiming under water resurfaces for a split second and goes back under and tries to beat his record.

"Wait make that 3 punching bags destoryed by his bare hands," Joshua says as he brings out 2 cups one withtea in it the other with move coffee

Kenja: Can I do anything to help? *she said as she took a cup and sipped it lightly*

"There isn't anything anyone can do to stop him," Joshua says as he takes a sip of his coffee and sits besie Kenja.

OOC: I'd like to see Zed try to stop him, but I have to go eat. Dang, that would have been good... :lol:
