It was a grand day at the end of Agust. That meant the first day of school for everyone, including the M.S. International Academy of Magic. Some of the finest teachers, and classes, in the easiest enviroment. The school looked almost like a generic one, no ivy branches, no mideval feel to it, a slight European-motif but nothing incredibly fancy. Teachers and student's were massing on the grounds, many freinds were giving their welcome backs, some were just being a tad mean, others were nice and helped the younger students find their way inside. Some people even showed off their advancing skills, freezing, burning, blowing up, blowing away, etc. Yep another year.


Head Mistress Azellia Thourick was giving a teachers prep meaning. She had long silver hair that passed her shoulders. She wore a pair of small oval glasses.

"This year, will be a grand year. We have a major budget increase, more student's then ever. Let's make sure we do what we are paid to do and that's develop their skills, their minds, and their peere-on-peere relation ships. I have been looking over all your lesson plans and they are quit good. I'm sure we will have an exceptional year as always. Now let's go welcome the students."

Show time!

That was what Arnaud de Clairmont Castillo (http://i4.photobucket.com/albums/y101/CountJWolf/ArnaudCastillo.jpg) was thinking as he stepped into the ring transporter of his half-brother Tel’Tac shuttle. Shane Castillo (http://i4.photobucket.com/albums/y101/CountJWolf/ShaneCastillo.jpg), his older half-bro, is an intergalactic traveler. Going where ever he wants and staying away of places that are tagged as hostile.

The ring transporter active, the four rings moved into the air as a bright light was formed. In less then a minute, Arnaud was not longer on the Tel’Tac. A bright white light shot towards the Earth and lands near the front of the school.

Arnaud appeared after the light disappear, he walked into the school. He was in teacher meeting before it was started, he knew out to keep things on time.

He listened to Head Mistress Thourick as she talked. When she was done, he got up and heads out to welcome the students.

Colonel Chihaya Knight (http://i17.photobucket.com/albums/b91/SeaQuest_Sim/Schematics/SeaQuestian%20Commonwealth/Character%20Pics/chihaya.jpg) sat down in the pilot seat of his customized private Bluestar (http://i17.photobucket.com/albums/b91/SeaQuest_Sim/Schematics/SeaQuestian%20Commonwealth/Ships/bluestar-1.jpg). The autopilot had done its duty in bringing him here, but he wanted to set her down manually.

Fluid Time Later - Surface

Chihaya gently set his ship down on its landing gear in a carefully choosen spot on the grounds of Magic Sorcery's International Academy of Magic. Getting up from his seat, he checked to make sure he hadn't forgotten anything before he used a portable remote to beam himself outside in a flash of white light. With his staff (http://i17.photobucket.com/albums/b91/SeaQuest_Sim/Schematics/SeaQuestian%20Commonwealth/Weapons/Magick%20Weapons/14434-std.jpg) in his right hand and the black feathers of his wings fluttering in the breeze, he adjust his sleeves to cover the boneblades on both forearms and headed for the Head Mistress's office to report in.

Once he heard her opening statements, he nodded in agreement.

"Ma'am," he said, "I don't know about the other instructors, but I know mine will use a general sylabus, but, due to the nature, it is my opinion that a more personalized approach will be needed to optimize it for each individual student."

No acknowledged family to speak of and friends were very few and far between... one might say the young Leonhart was a lonely soul, but his soul didn't long for company or conversation... even if he didn't have a soul to begin with...

Ender, though different than the others, arrived as the majority of the students did. He had few belongings other than some clothes and a few personal trinkets, but that was just the kind of person he was: unattached.

Without speaking to any of the kids, Ender walked up the path and entered the academy...

Chihaya had, by this time, left the Head Mistriss's office and was perched on a parapet(sp?) like a living gargoyle, overlooking the arrival of the students. When he noted Ender standing out from the crowd by not socializing with the others.

"Hmm," he thought, "That one is going to need a friend. I'll just have to see what I can do about that."

Michale leaned against a railing and looked at the newest batch of students... he swore they got smaller every year... He slowly straightened up, put out his cigarette, and walked towards the school. His guitar was slung over his back, and he quietly stalked his way through the front doors, looking for people he knew...

Two boys stepped out of a carriage, the slightly taller taking out a staff that overtopped him, while the slighter of the two bore a shorter staff. Evangeline and Ariden eached pulled out thier bags as they headed up to the school.

"Evan-dono, shall we go see what this school is like?" Ariden asked with a chuckle as she scowled at him. It looked for all the world as two brothers were walking up the walkway. They knew they would have a good time at this academy.
The Mice of Miceland
21-09-2006, 03:49
Mystic ArtsMouse arrived at a distance away from the Acadamy. She was nervous, it's her first day at a new school in a new land with new species. This was the first day in an environment that was totally foreign to her.

She wanted to get out a bit of a distance purely to walk and try to deal with the nervousness of her first day multiplied by doubts whether or not her new class-mates would accept her. So she started walking on all fours.

The sun was shining and was glistening off her white fur as she started to get closer he noticed that every student at the school that she could see was human. She decided to keep on all fours that way he would be out of most peoples direct-line of sight.

Approaching the front she could not help but look up at the faces of the other students, parents and freinds and spoting an occasional teacher, even one on the roof perched up on there like a Hawk. That made her evn more nerverous,(if that where possible), despite being somewhat scaled to human size, this was not normally the size he was back in Miceland. Granted she could probably be normal mouse size and forgo the bigulation before leaving Miceland but that would cause too many problems. Specifically with the potential for cat and other animals that would prey on mice as familiars.

All this adding to the tensions of the lone mouse, Mystic wondered if her parents had made the right decision. As he entered the hall and tried to find out what was happening. He lost the information pack that he received when she had been accepted into the Acadamy.

Aiko Satsuma had flown in by broomstick after having taken a jet part of the way from the Empire of Kirisubo.

She had made this journey a few times every year and she knew she could use her broomstick in Magic Sorcery without attracting attention.

Spellcasters were rare in her homeland and the Kirisuban Ministry of Magic where her parents both worked kept things hushed up.

she landed and took of her rucksack stretching knowing her vixen would have arrived already along with the other case she had.

she was 15 years old, 4'9" and about as tall as she would ever get. She had the classic asian looks of any Kirisuban, was quite pretty with olive skin and grey blue eyes and lightly built.

Her long black hair went to her shoulders and she looked strange in the white Fuku sailor suit uniform she wore complete with flying cloak, a navy skirt and a straw hat.

she put the rucksack back on and walked to the dorm she knew so well. It was about 5 minutes away from her landing point and she had so much to organise before classes started.

Antionette Marie Le cheau, looked out the tinted windows a Mercedes E350 at the school before her, the driver pulled the car directly infront of the main doors and got out to open Antionette's door. Once he had done so she nodded stepping out of the car,

"Driver, my bags...?" she said cocking her head to the side..

He nodded then went to the trunk after shutting her door, he removed two large suitcases..

"Where is the information folder?"

"Uh, miss' i thought you had it?"

Antionette shook her head slowly,

"As if i had read it.., thats what my fathers employees are for...."

"Sorry miss, we'll, err i will have to find out whats going on then..."

Antionette looked at all the other students passing by,

I wonder if i will meet any interesting people here...

Colonel Chihaya spotted the arriving limo. His gaze focused in (OOC: Ie, zoomed in (like a bird of prey)) on the occupent as she exited. Chihaya continued to study her and the other arrivals so that he could better plan for each if they wound up in his class. Spotting the mouse-like student, he raised his left eyebrow.

"That one seems a bit self-councious," he thought, "Perhaps instruction in a simple transformation spell would allow that youth to be less shy."

Aiko's trek took her past the main gate as she stuggled with her heavy rucksack.

She seen a car with a rather lost looking girl and walked up to her.

"are you OK?" she asked

He entered the main all area and took a seat in the back right corner...

Antionette smiled when the girl asked her the question,

"Im fine, are you ok?"

She looked as her driver dissapeared inside the school,

"Sorry, that may have seemed like a rather rude reply, I am Antionette Marie Le cheau, this is my first year attending a school of magic...my grandfather and his fathers before him have a long history, but i will tell you more about it another time"

She stood there toying with her hair....

"Hello Antionette, my names Aiko Satsuma" Aiko replied bowing slightly "and assuming thats she's arrived safely you may well meet my familiar.

They wouldn't let Suki go in the plane with me so she had to go by alternate means.

I'm about to drop of my rucksack and then report to the great hall if you want some company"

Noting no new arrivals for the time being, Chihaya took a moment to glance around the campus grounds. From his perch, he could see quite some distance. Spotting a clearing a small hike from the main building, he smiled to himself.

"Theres a good place for my first class," he thought, "close enough to still be on the grounds, yet far enough away that the more energetic classes don't cause irrepable damage."

After finding the perfect place to hold his first class, Chihaya returned his gaze and attention to the area where people, be they student or falculty, were arriving.

Antionette replyed,

"Nice to meet you Aiko, sure, lets go"

The driver came out of the school,

"Miss, your bags are being taken care of, is there anyhting else?"

"No Jason, you can go"

"Have a good afternoon Miss"

The driver tipped his had and returned to the Mercedes...

"Thank god for family staff" she smiled

"What are we waiting for?"

Aiko seemed nice, Antionette waited for her to start walking so that they could togeather,

"Where is your friend now?"

21-09-2006, 22:04
Aiko started walking and unrolled her information pack from the pocket of her flying cape.

She found the part where her dorm was and knowing the way from her 2 previous years here quicked the pace.

Aiko smiled and said "Suki should be waiting for me in the dorm along with my case. She hates having to travel in a cage although and like most vixen likes having a lot of space.

We won't be long she said as she pointed a large building in the distance still a few minutes walk away.

"thats the main dorms. Boys and girls have different dorms but sometimes they try and sneak in.

Suki usually keeps them away although"

"Aridren, I think that we are suppose to be going to the great hall." Evangeline commented as she looked at the introductory booklet.
"As you wish Sempai-chan." He commented teasingly, "Depending on how long it takes for the people running this show, game of Go?"
"Sure." She replied as they headed to the great hall while he pulled out the Go board.

Antionette grinned,

"Awh, ...no boys, thats horrible"

She winked at Aiko as they continued to walk, afew of the boys standing around attempted to lock eyes with Antionette but she simply kept looking ahead and towards Aiko,

"What exactly is a Vixen? ive never seen one..."
Hok-Tu
21-09-2006, 22:20
"Oh, Suki's a girl fox" Aiko replies "and they are the national animal of the Kirisuban Empire"

They finally got the the dorms and after climbing up two flights of stairs reached the girls dorm on the 2nd floor.

she entered the large room and took of her rucksack leaving it against the wall for now.

She also seen Suki and let her out of the wicker cage, the fully grown vixen excited to see her mistress jumping up and trying to lick her face.

21-09-2006, 22:26
Antionette stood there staring at the Vixen,

"Oh my, i have never seen somthing like that before....im sure this place will be full of surprizes"

She looked around the dorm,

"Well, it's not quite what i had in mind but it will do...."

Allan walked out of the bulky Cadilac, iPod speakers barely visible behind the curly black hair, he held his staff in one hand, his right shoulder supported an average travel bag. Slowly he made his way up the stairs and walked towards his dorm, staring at the ground most of the way there.

A few minutes later he made his way to the Great Hall, iPod and staff in tow.

21-09-2006, 22:33
Aiko laughed as Suki licked her face.

"thats enough" she said firmly and Suki stopped jumping and wandered over to Antionette looking her over.

"Antionette is this your dorm as well?" Aiko asked as she removed her flying cloak and placed it on top of the case.
Osteia
21-09-2006, 22:38
Antionette smiled and pet the creature,

"Those are my bags"

"Is there specific place where we are to report? my driver forgot the information package that was sent...i had it read to me though, about four times.."

"I have always been curious about my mothers side of the family, i guess here i will learn alot about magic and myself"
Hok-Tu
21-09-2006, 22:43
Aiko smiled and said "we generally report to the great hall after sorting out our dorms but we have a bit of time yet before we need to be there."

She picked out a bed near the window and unpacked her clothes which included a spare Fuku uniform into the wardrobe beside the bed.

Other essentails followed and lastly she pulled a package out from the bottom of her rucksack and opened it.

It was her yellow silk kimono along with its green obi and she carefully hung it up before stowing her books and a spare pair of shoes at the bottom of the wardrobe.

Antionette sighed once more,

"looks as if im going to have to unpack myself, folding my own clothes!"

she rolled he eyes then glaced over at Aiko's clothes,

"They are most beautiful, i wear alot of Gucci and Prada..."

She opened her suitcase and everything was packed neat and compact, she removed a large bag from inside the suitcase and set it on her bed,

"I think i brough enough of my make up.."

After going through afew of her things she spoke again,

"How long have you been studying magic?"

She removed a small stack of books and a very old book placing it on the bed, she flipped the cover open, inside was very old handwritting in Latin, she quickly closed it and went to place it back in her bag.....

A black rolls royce pulled up next to the school. Inside was Theullauan Mixsallious. A rather strange name, very isolated to her culture. She was almost hoping to pick up a nickname, because who would assosiate with such a strange name?

Her Mother and father were there to see her off as they were every year.

"You ready Theullauan?" Asked her mother Alipoaxe

"I think so mother."

"Now make us proud, you have always done so well in your others."

"I just don't think these are for me."

"Of course they are," her father Eatheos said. "Don't ever be ashamed of who you are."

"I'm not ashamed it's just..."

"Just what Theullauna?"

"Forget it."

She got out of the car and said her goodbyes.

Meanwhile Yoimeaa Zukarou arrived, alone. Her parents were off taming dragons in distant lands, and she was going to school. She desired to be out there, in the icey mountains, on the stormy seas, firey volcano's, taming dragons. She loved the Summer Holiday, it gave her that time to do so. She saw a great deal of many students, from many cultures. Her time of traveling kept her from being a racist, and same with her family.

"Well here goes nothing." She wasn't a stranger to the school. She had been comming here since she was 6. But every year proved to be a new challange. She went up to her doorm, and it seemed several others had arrived already.

"Nice to meet you Yoimeaa Zakarou." She unpacked various items.

21-09-2006, 23:07
"ever since I was 6 years old" Aiko replied as she dug round the rucksack and found the sandals which went with the kimono before putting them at the bottom of the wardrobe and hanging her cloak up too.

"this will be my 3rd year here" she added "I went to Kirisuban schools for magic before this but my parents throught it would be a good idea to met people from other countries.

She slipped her wand into a leather tube which hung from a belt round her waist and closed the top over and fixed her long white socks. the final touch was adjusting her small handbag on a long strap which she slung across her chest.

All this time Suki had settled down beside Aiko's bed and was keeping an eye out for boys as usual.

Lorena, Cathrenia and Paula Maldez, arrived on the grounds with their parents. It had been a long and unpleasent trip. Having to sail from their native homeland to M.S. they encounterd a great deal of storms and even a hurricane. But this was one of the finest Magic Schools in the World, and they all had scolarships for them.

Their mother Maria hugged and couldn't let go.

"Now you all be good, and you two listen to your big sister all right?"

"Si." Said the young Paula

They all hugged and gave their goodbyes. Lorena the oldest took her youngest sister's hand and led her inside the school. They needed to find their doorm, settle in, and then go the Great Hall for an assembly. All of them were naturally tan, and all except Paula, who had redish brown hair.

They were shown into the nice cozy looking doorm room. They put their bags down, and took out a few things. They didn't have a great deal of persoanl items, because they were quite poor, living in a cramped leaky country house. They also had their instruments. Lorena a classy violen player, Catherina, a trumpet, and Paula had a flute. Another intresting, they were all diffrent classes. Witch and element and sorceress, what a family.

The brother and sister, thought it appeared to be a pair of brothers, arrived at the great hall and noticed a sign saying that the students were suppose to head to the respective dorms.

"I guess that game can wait, see you later Evan." Aridren commented
"Yes." Evangeline replied as she headed off to the girls dorm. Considering that, from physical clues including her voice and clothing, Evangeline appeared to be a boy it would probably cause a stir.

Opening the door to the girls dorm with her foot, she paused in the doorway as she looked in at the other girls.

"L'oscurità ortografa- Dark spells?"

"My grandfather would know...."

She looked up and seen a girl enter the room and heard her introduce herself,

"Hi, i am Antionette are you in this room? or building?"

Then another person entered,

"Are you blind and have not noticed this is a girls doorm hall?"

She smirked cocking her head side ways...

"This is my assigned dorm." Evangeline replied, "My name is Evan McDowell." As she introduced herself, she pulled out the form that mentioned the dorm assignment.

It listed Evan McDowell as being assigned to the dorm that she was at yet failed to list gender as it had been registered as female. The forms failed to take into account the fact that a girl might look like a boy rather than a girl.

Arnaud, have checking his barn out and making sure everything was in order, walks into the great hall with a red dragon on his right shoulder. This dragon was not full sized one but what you could call a mini one, the size of a house cat at the time. The dragon’s yellow eyes looked at the students as Arnaud walked through the great hall.

Hopelessley lost Allan turned back, deciding to unpack and follow someone else to the great hall.

First priority was his stereo, plugging it in he let the baritone voice softly roam the area directly around him. A short time later the once bare room was covered in posters (http://img291.imageshack.us/img291/1048/posterattemptcopywo6.jpg), his heroes proudly proclaimed on his walls.

"What is that?" Evan asked as she used the tip of her staff to push the animal away from her. She wasn't as anti-nature as her brother, but she disliked animals and wanted to keep it at a distance. "Hello all." She added to the newly arrived students and those already present.



Meanwhile one of the bats that seemed to always find Aridren, had landed on his head as he arrived at his dorm room and entered as he wondered if he had a room-mate, and if so if they'd already arrived or not.

she went over to the three sisters and said "you can pick any bed thats not occupied and the wardrobes are usually big enough for anyone.

Theres nothing to worry about here".

"Its nice to meet you Thellauna,Yoimeaa and Evan" she added "Suki's a vixen and she's house trained but very curious about other people.

Ulrich Mussorgsky had been in the dorm for a couple of days prior. He watched for the window as another kid unpacked his stuff. Once the kid was done he jumped down from the window and looked at the kid.

"I'm Ulrich Mussorgsky and who might you be?"

As another kid walked in he looked at him. He looked familiar. Shaking his head he must of seen him come in.

"Oh my Ulrich Mussorgsky."

Chihaya noted that there was a common theme running through the new arrivals. Most, if not all, appeared to be of wealth and affluent backgrounds. Very few, if any, seemed to be from lesser backgrounds. An interesting fact, he noted and mentally logged, as such students tended to be more spoiled rich brats that were too lazy to do things for themselves. He hoped that he would get as few of that kind of student in his class as he tended to treat those not willing to to get off their duffs and try, rather harshly.

Chihaya summoned a command drone from his Bluestar. Activating it, he programmed it to use its nanite swarm to supplement the campus's security systems and even enhance it in places where needed. Deploying the drone's nanite payload, he used a simple spell to put up a notice on the main communal board(?) for the students to know where his first class would be held. After activating the drone's weather shields so it wouldn't be affacted by any foul or inclement weather later down the line, he opened a Fold to the clearing he was planning to use and began to set it up the way he would need.

"It's a strategy game and originated in China. It's not very interesting to watch all things considered, especially if you don't know the rules or strategies." He replied as he stood up and headed to the door. If Ulrich still wanted to watch, he didn't care either way.

Aridren picked up the Go board the McDowell twins used. He missed the family board but it was not portable. With the board in one hand, his staff in the other he headed off toward the girls dorms.

"Yes." He replied without bothering to elaborate. Walking into the dorm, he headed toward his sister's floor.

Aridren knocked on the door to the floor's commom room, figuring that's where the majority of the people would be and most likely Evangeline as well. She might not be a social animal, but she liked background noise produced by those animals.

"Seems like it's been delayed on account of Iemoto." He replied as he headed back out and toward the grand hall.



Meanwhile Evan was finishing up a Sudoku with an average completion time of almost half an hour in a little over eight minuted. Putting the book and time away, she picked up her staff and headed down to the grand hall as well.

AS Mystic got towards the great hall the noticeboards on the way there where being blocked from sight by the children taller than her. She managed to walk right into the Great hall and there stretched before her was the enourmous room.

Rows upon Rows, upon, rows of seats, all lined up one after another. It seemed it there was going to be a rush of people vying for a seat any minute. She didn't like siting in a 'normail' chair at the best of times but with her anticipation and personal insecurities there was no way. She'd sit on a chair, she decided to stay at the back of this great hall and so she started wondering around trying to occupy herself. With every step Mystic makes her claws tap on the hard wooden floor and echo effortlessly.

It was sometime before she noticed the single student in the corner of the hall, she started towards him, wishing to ask a question about getting some information about what she should do.

No one seemed to pay much attention to Theullaun, she expected it. She wasn't a social butterfly, she was very shy. But she went down to the Great Hall and tried to find a seat. "Pardon me, excuse me, sorry." she tumbled and tripped over dozens of students till finally comming to a seat. Yoimeaa sat down next to her. "Hi."

"Hi." Theullaun said timidly.

They looked more and more student's were massing.

"Lot of rich kids here." Said Yomieaa.

Theullaun couldn't reply. She was from a rather wealthy family her self.

Before Mystic got to the lone student the bell chimed out and indeed there was a rush of incoming students. Some older, some younger, all seemed to flow into the Great Hall. None of the students had taken any interest in her and for the moment she didn't know if it was bad or good. However she was in a crowd again and they made her feel safer as they where tones of people all doing their own thing.

Mystic's plan of trying to stay out of the spotlight so far had worked, standing in the rear of the building looking up to the stage to see what is going to happen.

It was only something that a creature near the bottom of the food chain would understand, or even could pick up.

She is certainly glad that the teacher was there and she didn't approach Ender before the bell sounded. Actually, other students where starting to get restless some students where getting up and moving. Conversations between old friends as well as new people forced together. Time had passed since the announcement was made for the students and Mystic started to get nervous again. In fact she started to have a panic attack, her heart rate jumped by 100 beats per minute.

He straightened up to show the significant height advantage he had over Ariden, and looked at him calmly.
"So you were just being disrepectful, huh, Aridren? I should kick your ass... but I won't. If you keep at this, a student bigger'n me will, though."

"Peace, little one" said hre mother in the voice that she knew oh, so well. "You are safe, No one is going to hurt you. Peace tranquility." And there was suddenly a door that Mystic had not noticed before, nor was it normally in the room.. the door was the door of the Great Hall's main door. As large as it was, somehow seemed perfectly sized and did not stand out.

"Return my sweet, you are safe, nothing will harm you..."

Mystic got up and made her way to the door, as she got closer she could hear the general din of the great hall but it did not frighten her... She opened the door to see the great hall laid out before her... As she walked through a bright white light enveloped her.

She found her self looking up at Chihaya, the teacher and Aiko. The fellow student. She was lying on her side, as unconcious mice do... She had alot of questions..

Rember your dorms are like your family, treat them well. And treat your teachers well, now we'll have our opening banquet."

She clapped her hands, and vast ammounts of trays appeard. And she sat down

Graves zoned out during the speech. It was just the same as last year's, and the year's before that... When the food appeared, he realised he didn't have a tray. He quickly squeezed into a seat already in use by a young student, and started sharing his tray with him.

"You don't mind, do you?" he asked the boy.

"Uhhh... no..." the boy said nervously.

"Good boy." Graves patted him on the back. "Try the potatoes, their delicious and nutritious."

That was Arnaud cue to leave and get ready for his first class. He was a half vampire, human food was not his thing. So why would he want to eat it? He tipped a hat that was not there at the Head Mistress and heads out of the great hall.

He soon heads through the school and to the path that leads toward his barn.

While she was unconcious she started to dream.. dreaming she was falling down an infinitely long hole... images of various hawks, owls, cats and other animals that naturally feed on mice float by and disappear... she suddenly falls into her house, inside are her father and father... holding and comforting her. "Peace, little one" said hre mother in the voice that she knew oh, so well. "You are safe, No one is going to hurt you. Peace tranquility." And there was suddenly a door that Mystic had not noticed before, nor was it normally in the room.. the door was the door of the Great Hall's main door. As large as it was, somehow seemed perfectly sized and did not stand out.

"Return my sweet, you are safe, nothing will harm you..."

Mystic got up and made her way to the door, as she got closer she could hear the general din of the great hall but it did not frighten her... She opened the door to see the great hall laid out before her... As she walked through a bright white light enveloped her.

She found her self looking up at Chihaya, the teacher and Aiko. The fellow student. She was lying on her side, as unconcious mice do... She had alot of questions..

"What happened? Where am I?.. and who are you?" she asked the first time she had spoken out aloud. Everyone heard the squeaks that her generated by her mouth, but there where no doubts about the contents of what she had said.

Stepping back to provide room, Chihaya replied, "Colonel Chihaya Knight, professor for the advanced magickal combat class. You seem to have had some kind of anxiety attack. Seeing as how only one person stepped in," he glanced over at the student in question, "I came over to provide aide. Need any help getting up?"

Hearing the last of the Headmistresses speech and having a blank look at the teacher and Aiko. Mystic finally introduced herself to the 2 of them.

"My name is Mystic, I'm so far from home and well, let's just say there are alot of things that would like nothing more than to have a mouse for breakfast, lunch or Tea...."

Before she said anything more the most tempting of smells invaded her nostrils... from the copious amounts of food that had been magic-ed into the room. "Food."
she said as she scrambled up to the trays. Standing on her two hind legs Mystic grabbed a plate and loaded it up with a number of grains and vegitable based food. As a mouse she was generally vegan but did not refuse food with milk or egg in them, however she does find meat distinctly un-appealing.

She returned to try and find Aiko, Mystic never liked eating alone and even with the dauntingness of the new surroundings and the total unknowns for the mouse, it was like second nature for her and it would take alot for her to change that.

"FOOD" she said munching on what she had collected from the trays..."Need" some more nibbling "to cope" puting a bit more food in her mouth before saying the next 2 words "with stress", and on last final nibble before finishing the short and most likely gramattically incorrect statement "better".

Mystic had food which totally distracted her from her emotional problems, which she knew if she wanted to learn about magic, and she did she really did, need to solve. But she had no idea, perhaps a wiser and older student a teacher might be interested, who knows. While she knew it would get easier to be here she would never stop thinking there was a bird of prey or cat after her.

Chihaya raised his left eyebrow and smiled slightly at Mystic's antics.

"Mystic," he said, "I think you should know that I am not what I appear to be. Not knowing how you would react when you came to, I activated a spell to remove something that I felt you would respond negatively to. I felt I should give you an early heads-up before removing the spell."

Mystic paused her eating... and looked the teacher up and down. He looked entirely human but his words indicated otherwise... a spell to remove something that he thought I would negatively respond to.

The line of thought was temporarily distracted by the return of Aiko "The teacher is hiding something that he thinks..." and before she finished talking to her fellow student Mystic realised something. She had the niggling feeling that she had seen this person before, but she never had been able to even admit it to herself. "It was wings wasn't it... I noticed you before but I don't think I allowed myself to remember."

Mystic was calm, she knew that the teacher was not a bird of prey, nor was he particularily acting like one, but then the wings had not appeared and mental assent to there being wings and actually seeing them are totally different things.

"Do it, If am ever going to deal with my anxieties I'll need to face them... though just be ready in case. Take the cat by the whiskers, so to speak... I'll close my eyes so I can open them when I am ready." and with that she closed her eyes hard, and controlled her breath taking in slow and deep breaths. And waited for the word telling her to open her eyes from the teacher. She also secretly hoped for someone to hold her claw will she was doing this.

Allan picked at the food in front of him, his mind wandering to thoughts of music even though he knew he should have been trying to help the mouse, truth be told he wouldn’t have known what to do with a mouse; so instead he had started eating his food, but guilt soon overwhelmed him and so, he had walked over to see if he could help.

On arriving he waited for professor to remove the spell that would cause the mouse to respond negatively, chewing on a piece of french bread in the meantime.

Mystic could feel the magic ebb away... and with Aiko's hand in her claw it was not long until she gained up the courage to look.

How was she going to react and finally she spoke.

"Those wings are Hawk, or Owl like at all."

saying thank you to Aiko for holding her hand she let go and started to eat again. Though when she looked at her plate she noticed that it had all gone.

Mystic's attention was not entirely focussed on her new friend Aiko, but it was not focused at all on the teacher either. She still looked for signs of danger but she felt better having someone she could call a friend with her, but still it didn't remove the feeling of dread and feeling of nervousness that she might have to sprint away from danger, But then that is normal for her.

"No, I have not been there. I have been having a look around, just wanted to check on a few things. And your right probably did get my luggage to the right room. Even though I only have my staff and my grooming items. There is not much more that a mouse like me to use."

Seeing the chair get knocked down Ulrich was on guard now. This kid was going to mess around like others. Ulrich didn't want to get into a fight, but this kid keep on going. It was already the first day and a fight might break out. Once Graves was close to him he looked back.

"Now," he said with a look in his eyes that could melt lead, "are you going to act your age, or do I have to get creative? If you have enough energy to fight, I'm sure I can think of a way for you two to put it to a better use. So, is it going to be the easy way, or the hard way?"

"I think someones behind us. Don't look back. I can just feel it in my spine."

He coughed for a moment and started to speak in his normal voice.

"You fought well back there..."

"I have some experience..."

When they passed a turn-off to another hallway, Graves pretended to look down it... and caught their follower in his peripheral vision.

"I think it's a student."

Mystic had finished her plate and being contented with what she had eaten she sat back with her new friend and watched the head mistress deal with the boys.

"I wonder what she will do... or perhaps, make them do?"

Aiko was slightly disapointed by the warning. She had expected more from the headmistress.

"Now we know Mystic" she replied adding "i'm stuffed as well. do you want to go back to the dorm and get settled in or do you want to see round the school?"

27-09-2006, 06:48
"Well, I haven't been to the Dorm room and I like to have my place set up. So let's go there."

Mystic wondered whether there was a corner bed available for her, She felt much more comfortable in confined quarters but still snakes. She hated snakes for the Eww factor as well as the natural predator factor, and so she still kept her nervous eyes on as she and Aiko made their way to the Dorm.

27-09-2006, 06:52
when they reached the dorm Suki was on guard and padded over to her mistress looking for some attention (or a biscuit).

"Mystic, this is my familiar Suki. She's a vixen but she'll also keep the boys out of this dorm.

Kneeling beside her pet Aiko said to her "I forgot to bring you something back from the feast but I've biscuits here somewhere"

She found a bag of dog biscuits at the bottom of her rucksack and gave Suki one.
The Mice of Miceland
27-09-2006, 07:07
"Yeah... We don't have familiars, It can get a bit... difficult with us being mice and All. Though I have always wanted a pet. But I'm always told 'How would you like to be couped up in a cage all day with nothing but a wheel to keep you company'. As you know mice are used as pets and most rodentia have a hang up about it. Though, I dunno, I know I'd like the security of it. Prevent all kinds of nasties getting to you and getting fed well. I'd think that would be great."

Mystic started to look around and noticed an unclaimed bed right in the corner, relatively close to Aiko.

"I'll think I'll set up here." Said as she collected her stuff laying in the middle of the floor and plonked it on top of the bed. "At least rodent... sorry, people, know that the bed will be mine."
Hok-Tu
27-09-2006, 07:23
"the only time that Suki is in a cage is when she's travelling to and from school" Aiko replies "she normally just tags along with me when she's not looking out for boys or sleeping at my feet"

Suki was chewing the biscuit sitting at Aiko's feet.

"I'll best get changed anyway" she added "I'll need this uniform for tomorrow and I only have the one spare with me"

She drew the curtains round her bed and emerged two minutes later dressed in a red t-shirt, jeans and a pair of sandals.

She folded her sailor Fuku and skirt up neatly putting it back in the wardrobe.
The Mice of Miceland
27-09-2006, 07:40
Mystic lay on her back on the bed while Aiko got changed, with mice you just had fur and that was all they needed, protected against most of the elements, well except sun-burn for mystic pure white fur was a curse in that way.

She spent most of the time trying to absorb and comprehend everything that had happened the new school, where she stood out again, a panic attack. A teacher with black wings and a new friend that wears uniform to school even though it isn't needed. There was alot to take in and alot that could go wrong in the near future, and then there was her obsessive fear of what would be come around the corner.

Though she hadn't let it show she's still concered and nervous about it but having Aiko around does seem to help. And then Aiko re-appeared in her new clothes

"Why do you where a Uniform when the school has no uniform or any sort of dress code apart from being dressed? I get out on a technically by categorising my fur as clothing. Which.. it is essentially."

Aiko sat beside Mystic, thought for a moment and replied "I suppose its because its a uniform that Kirisuban school girls have worn for nearly 100 years and its traditional for us. Sometimes the length of the skirt changes but not by much.

A kimono would be more comfortable but I would need help with the obi every morning"
The Mice of Miceland
28-09-2006, 00:40
Mystic pondered this for a second and said "So it's like when you are not wearing the uniform while at school, you are missing something integral. Like my tail or fur."

School was back on Mystics mind again, while she knew what school was like in Miceland she had no idea what school was like in many human countries and then add in the magical element she was totally unsure was what was going to happen. And that made her worried.

"So, what do you reckon school will be like?"
Hok-Tu
28-09-2006, 06:31
"usually classes and study periods take up most the day and thats even before you have to do homework" Aiko replied

she paused and added "I usually spend a couple of hours in the library after school before I can relax in the common room beside a blazing fire or go for a fly or run".

A though hit her and she smiled.

"we could be study partners" she said "and help each other out"

Ender had long since left the great hall and found his way to the boy's dorm where he would be spending his semesters. Without speaking to anyone he plopped down on his bed and seemed to fall asleep.

"true" Aiko replied as Suki started whining and looking up at Aiko.

"I think she wants out for while" she says adding "do you fancy a walk while Suki gets a run?"

Mystic would have normally asked if it was safe for Suki to be let out, saying something like 'but she does't eat mice does she', and then she would ask about where they would go? and be extremely nervous anywhere outside. But not now all she said in reply to Aiko's question was "Yeah, I'll go. I think some exercise might do me some good at the moment. Release some stress and so on."

Somehow Mystic felt a connection to Aiko, one that calmed and allayed her fears, Mystic felt that she could trust that Aiko would not take her anywhere there might be danger.

Mystic rolled her self onto the floor and waited for Aiko to release Suki
Hok-Tu
29-09-2006, 07:01
Aiko put on her flying cloak and a long scarf since it was getting cold and they left the dorm leading Suki out into the gardens and forest round the dorm.

Once Suki had enough space she just bolted away gaining distance but not getting so far away that they lost her.

The vixen sniffed the ground and marked her territory as usual.

"She's showing other foxes that these gardens are her territory" Aiko replied "but I think that she's the only one here anyway"

Suki kept running and walking finding out new things about her environment.

"Okay..." Ulrich wondered who it was. Also Ulrich wondered where Graves had learned to fight like that.

Graves glanced back again at Evangeline.
"I recognize her... she and her brother are total assholes..." He shook his head and slouched, dropping his guarded demeanor.
The Mice of Miceland
30-09-2006, 14:32
Suki paused sniffed the air, it was like she was picking up a scent... Something that she was familiar with and she let out a sound. Maybe Aiko could identify what it meant but it puzzled Mystic... She watched and soon heard that oh, so familiar and the sound that all mice dread. The howling of cat being disturbed by an energetic fox.

Mystic's initial instinct was to run from the cat, and it was an instinct that was bread into the mice for generations those that where too slow around cats became dead. However before the instinct managed to translate into the action of running away, Something that Mystic was very good at when she felt imminent danger. The thing that stopped Mystic's instinctive reaction was the realisation of the size difference.

"Cat... for once a mouse has an advantage. You know despite being equivalently scaled to a human at the moment our natural size is that of a normal mice, So we still have to maintain our natural danger-o-meters. Though sometimes it can be a pain and I am sure that my danger-o-meter worked overtime in an environment where in reality there was none. Anyway... " and with that no so brief explanation out of the way Mystic charged at the Cat.

The cat having a vixen at it's back and a monstrous mouse charging it got confused and just ran, trying to get away from a thing that it thinks at the same time is a mouse, yet isn't. Mystic and Suki followed after it.

OOC: I have Hok-Tu's permission

The cat continued running away with Suki and Mystic chasing it all of them where making making alot of noise. It came to the edge of the school and the cat squeezed through the gap in the posts of the tall metal railing fence.

It looked back and smiled in a wry cat smile a small hiss before walking Hautily away with it's tail up in the air. Mystic could dislocate a number of joints and squeeze through the bars. She was a mouse after all and they where very adept at getting into and out of things. However being outside left her open to all sorts of stuff and outside the fence who knows what might have been there it was after all a country that she had virtually no knowledge of.

"There will be one day cat.. I'll get you. I'll go out there our you will get yourself caught with no way of escape. Just watch out then cat... just watch out."

"Good girl, Suki." Mystic said as Mystic turned her attention back to Aiko who was following them and said... "I think it's best if we go back inside now."

01-10-2006, 16:46
Aiko looked up and seen it was getting dark and consulted her magical watch.

"We'll best get back to the dorm then" she replied as Suki looked up at Mystic accepting the praise.

Suki walked over to Aiko's side as they walked back to the dorm.

the girls returned to their dorms to find the others hadn't arrived yet.

Aiko yawned and while Suki got to know her new friend better Aiko got changed into a pink cotton sleeping kimono.

She put her clothes away neatly and rejoined Mystic now in her nightwear and barefoot.

"whats it like in your country?" she asked as she pointed her wand at the fireplace and muttered.

the logs burst into flame and the fire burned high up the chimney warming the room.

After making sure the boy with the broken jaw was at the infirmary, Evangeline headed back to the girls dorm.

Meawhile, not realizing his sister had taken a detour, Aridren had headed over to the same dorm with the Go board. Heading up to the door he'd been about to knock on before assembly, he knocked on it and stepped back to await someone so he could ask about Evan.
The Mice of Miceland
02-10-2006, 01:34
Mystic sat on the floor just content for now in the company of Suki the Vixen. Mystic could not understand why the humans and clothing for this, clothing for that, clothing that essentially wasn't clothing at all. Mystic saw clothing as purely functional, like her fur. Not that one did not see the beauty, or lack of, in ones fur but that beauty or lack thereof doesn't determine their character personality. So really why do people make a big fuss over what they wear? Who knows? Mystic certainly didn't.

But Aiko had asked a question and Mystic started to answer her.

"Well, firstly everything is on a much smaller scale but fairly equivalent, well except certain birds that don't go through customs and aren't de-bigulated. Bigulation tech, which is actually I believe magic-based, to scale us and or visitors appropriately. When whatever comes to Miceland it is scaled down to normal mouse size and and when whatever leaves it is scaled back up. As for in Miceland.. I think it is fairly similiar to many human nations, well, from what I have heard and seen from footy anyway. Things are made designed with mouse claws in mind but humans and many other sapient animals or beings generally can use them. Do you have any specific questions?"
Hok-Tu
02-10-2006, 07:46
"are there a lot of spell casters in Miceland?" Aiko asked and then heard the door knock.

She said "excuse me" and opened the door Suki immediately spotting the boy at the door.

"How may I help you?" Aiko asked the boy at her dorms door politely.

02-10-2006, 16:00
"Is Evan present?" Aridren asked as he looked at the girl before him.

"She's not back from the feast yet" Aiko replies.

"who shall I say was asking for her?" she adds

"I'm Evan's brother." Aridren replied, "I have an appointment." He added with a slightly roguish grin.
Hok-Tu
02-10-2006, 23:44
Aiko raised an eyebrow and Suki sniffed at the boy at the door. She also noticed the obvious family resemblance.

It was then she noticed that Evan had slipped in while she was talking to Mystic.

"You may enter as long as Evan wants you here" she replied.
Theao
03-10-2006, 00:05
"You're late Aridren." Evan commented as she looked over at the door, "And stop flirting."
"As you command Dono-Ue." Aridren replied mockingly as he stepped into the room with the Go board as he headed over to the table to play the daily game.

03-10-2006, 00:11
Aiko closed the door and sat beside Mystic again.

"now where were we?" she asked.
The Mice of Miceland
03-10-2006, 02:43
"You asked about spell casters in Miceland." Mystic said as she waited for Aiko to return "Well, from what I know all us mice are inherintly magic, hence the sapience, etc. So while most mice would have some sort of magical gift I would not call it spell-casting. Only very few actual spell-casters and those that do, either do so inherintly. I have heard reports of some people trying to cast spells through study, much like a Wizard or witch or whatever they are called but bad things generally happen to them shortly after. I'm not sure why, probably Karma or something."

Mystic was surprised that she hadn't noticed Evan's entrance before but Aiko seemed to know her, but she looked like a guy.

Mystic whispered to Aiko, "Evan is a girl? She looks like a boy. Do you know what has happened?"
Hok-Tu
03-10-2006, 06:31
Aiko also whispered "some girls look like boys when they're younger. its a fact of life and they're twins as well. Suki will have no problem detecting her brother now she's got his scent"

then speaking normally she adds "theres not many spellcasters in Kirisubo either. they're born into wizarding families of which mine is one and our ministry of magic has managed to cover us so well that the vast majority of the non-magical people have no idea that there are wizards and witches in the Empire.

Theres places that we can practice magic back home away from prying eyes as well as being able to fly in peace. You can even see Dragons in magicial national parks back home"
The Mice of Miceland
03-10-2006, 09:22
Why all the secrecy?" asked Mystic "And is there any reason why a person from a non-magical family would not be able to practice as a wizard or witch?"
Hok-Tu
03-10-2006, 19:21
"the ability to cast spells is something that you can't learn. Going to schools like this allow you to control and focus it" Aiko replied adding "we keep our abilities a secret from other people cause they would panic and assume the worst about us.

Still we do a lot of work for the nation and the Empresses chief body guard is a powerful witch. Only the Daughter of Heaven knows the secret although.

My parents are both spellcasters and they work in the ministry of magical foods and plants. With magic they can create rice seedlings that can produce triple the normal yield per plant without the nasty side effects of genetic modification"
The Mice of Miceland
04-10-2006, 06:54
"Wouldn't such reaction only be temporary? I know alot about being afraid and once people know all the good things the various magical ministries do wouldn't they change their minds? If they could no longer see magic or magic-users as a threat then surely there would be nothing to cause fear and if it became known that the Empresses chief body guard is a powerful withch then surely that would be an added deterent to try and do anything. Fear can be a powerful motivator for action or inaction. It just depends what it motivates you to do."
Hok-Tu
05-10-2006, 19:22
Aiko sighs and replies "Mystic, I don't make the rules but I'm sure the secrecy is for the best"

While she was probably the only one that could literally get away with getting out of bed and go straight to class she just couldn't do it.

As Aiko was washing her hair, Evan entered the dorm. She'd been sparring with Aridren as they'd developed a system, Eight Trigram Palm in the morning and Go in the evening with the occasional game or sparring session during the day.

The twins both headed to thier respective showers. "Oh, hello." Evangeline commented as she disrobed and headed to a shower.
