KRONOS

Earlier that day, or later, he could never really tell, back in the fight club's arena, Kronos waited for himself to leave with Blaze so could in turn meet with Aeryn. The battle between the two had been interesting, but sadly not the last. He waited for some of the crowd's attention to change to another source before stepping out on the dirt floor. He wasn't wearing his Marigold attire, but then he hadn't had time to change. He snickered thinking about how his friends would accuse him for such a statement. Aeryn was situated in an acward position on the floor. It didn't look particularly comfortable. He sighed, remembering some things that had gone wrong with her before all of it had happened, and looked around. None of the regulars seemed to pay him any mind, probably assuming he was some sort of ref. Kronos reached out and placed a palm over her and blinked.

Her room appeared to be no different from his old one. How long had it been, twenty... thirty years since the big event that changed everything. Aeryn was ... more comfortably settled on her own bed. The room smelled some of fish and the ocean. Probably Cailyn was here room mate. Kronos took a seat on the adjacent bed and brought out his trino-cube. While he waited for her mind to mend some, he dabbled with affairs in the next dimension over via his cube link.

º•˙Spec˙•º

I didn't even need to hear Cailyn's decline to know that dinner was out of the question. Although a rosy rush of color was returning to her cheeks, she still looked fairly queasy. And I didn't blame her. After donating blood, one of my brothers passed out during his math test. While he had had little blood drawn, that filthy blood-sucker nearly drained the life out of Cailyn!

"Just take me to my dorm," she moaned, shuttering her eyes against the intensity of the world. I had almost reached the outside door before I realized guys can't just go waltzing into the girls' dorm. Sighing, I "accidentally" bumped into the next girl who walked by.

Apologizing as the girl sent a fire of angry curses, I shuffled Cailyn down the hall and through a door that opened to a night filled with the scent of flowers. Here, I took on the form of the girl.

Ablaze against the darkness, soft lights beckoned to me. I obeyed their call and trudged towards their source, the smell of the flowers growing ever stronger. Man, these girls sure are serious about their perfume. I thought to myself as I openly coughed.

With a slight stumble, I found myself amongst the enticing lights--and a mass of roses! No kidding, this army of red and pink would put Valentine's Day to shame. This rose garden was lined with lamp posts so sickeningly charming that I was certain that my little sister Jennie would squeal over them and think the whole atmosphere was "just sooooo romantic!".

Well, this isn't the girls' dorm, I sighed to myself, the cloud of rosy smells filling my nostrils and head. But with a place this girly, it has to be nearby...

There! I saw it! Like stars, lights twinkled close to the garden. I had no doubt in my mind that I had, at last, found the dorm. Instead of the romantic feel the rose garden's lights had emitted, these were more cozy and homey. Some of the room lights were still on, but others had descended into darkness. It was probably close to curfew.

After asking a subdued Cailyn for her room number and key, I stumbled around until I came across the right room. On opening the door, a wave of salty scents crashed over me. This was undoubtly Cailyn's room.

However, what else met me inside frightened me so much, my illusion nearly dispersed. I was staring at that scary girl lying in a bloody coma on the bed closest to the window, and Kronos fiddling with a strange...I didn't even know.

My attention was diverted when Cailyn asked for something to eat. I decided to run to the cafeteria and snag some last-minute food. "Erm...would you guys care for some food?" I awkwardly asked Kronos and the motionless body.

[E'jira]

E'jira


I kept pacing. After everyone had left the hall, besides John, whom was still wrapped in a set of locker doors, I had found myself back inside my dorm, alone. A presence stronger than my own had arrived on campus not ten minutes past and it set my nerves ringing the instant I felt it. It was like gooseflesh, my skin pricked up and pupils dilated...well, I'll admit, my eyes were dilated because I'd turned off the light. The sensation was making it hard for me to sit still, so I'd had trouble finishing my book.

I tugged on a light wrap and went to leave. My fingers were having a hard time with the lock though, shaking as they were. Once out in the hall, I bolted for a way out, barely registering the presence of the illusionist and mermaid from earlier. Bursting out a pair of double doors, I found myself very near to the school's rose garden.

I shuffled towards the back, where they kept the white roses. Those were always Denia's favorites, white roses. I'd come here to escape the intensity of the feelings racking my body, hoping they had been caused by the confines of my small dorm room, but I found myself in a worse state and my mind swimming with few reasons why I felt like this.

Someone with a wolfish aura (Amira~) passed behind me, but I ignored it, seeing as they were heading away. Actually, there were two rather distinct beings behind me in the forest. The wolf and a dragon, possibly the one I'd heard earlier this day. They were exchanging words, ones she had the instinct to pass on listening to. Rymber...Amira...I registered the names for later. The emotions echoing off the wolf one were mixed. Common, I thought. But the ones radiating for the dragon...Betrayal, Anger, Resentment...for some reason, my defenses were already up, preparing for the moment this being let down the walls holding back these urges and raised the nearby trees and creatures to the ground.



Sire


I'd been sitting against the Ladies dormitory wall when the doors swung open and the one person I'd been searching for the past century rushed into the garden. She was still beautiful and she'd kept her word. The E'jira I was seeing now was the one that had promised not to change herself the last time I'd seen her. The red hair, tanned skin...I missed her, so I realized now. When she'd found herself a seat in the back of the perfumed garden, I saw just how much torment my being here had caused her. A kernel of guilt, concern, and sadness planted itself in my heart, looking at her face twist into a look of frustration.

I took a few steps forward and stopped. She glanced up and saw me. Tears threatened to spill from her eyes and mine too. I plucked the nearest rose, a dark red bloom, like her hair...My eyes flickered blue as the flower opened itself all the way. Then it clicked. The reason why our kind were solitary, how could I have let that slip my mind. Just being near me would cause her pain. Eventually it would subside to a dull buzz but until then, I was hurting her. It had been such a while that she'd most likely shed her resistance to my presence. I was such a fool!

Still, even if my insides were telling me I was an idiot and I should wear a expression of concern, my signature smile was painted on my face. I crossed the space between us and pushed the bloom behind her ear. "I'm sorry...." My voice was nothing higher than a whisper.

"For what?" She spat. "Not sending note ahead of time to warn me? Letting me leave? You did nothing to wrong me yet you crawl forth like a dog that has wronged its master."

I was silent. I had no response to her counter. I placed myself on the bench next to her and wrapped my arms around her, hoping that this small gesture could calm her fury. "Bastard" I heard her murmur.

"There's a pair in the trees. Perhaps you sitting here might calm them...." she was still angry. I could feel it where my skin touched hers. Her flesh pulsed a fiery drum beat against my cool hands. She was right though, I could feel everything should could so I called on a light breeze to grace the air. The calming scent of chamomile and lavender brushed through the area with the wind.


{{Guys. Sire needs his hugs now. Please. I think I hurt his poor heart enough just thinking about Gaile-Son [ OTP ] I NEED SOMEONE ELSE TO SHIP WITH!}}

~Amira~

After finally seeing who it was,she was relieved when it was Rymber who walked out of the darkened woods. He looked tense as his muscles seemed clenched and tight. His tone and face looked stoic but had an hidden anger. "Are you okay Rymber?" She pauses and looks at him as he stood there. "I wondered what you were doing in the woods since it's dark and wolfs and other nightly creatures are out." The sky seemed to darken near the woods giving it a dark and ominous appearance.

Cailyn

I looked up and saw a girl with a mustache.Where's Spec?Then said"What happen to Spec."I was confused.I looked around the room and saw two other people.One was passed out and the other watching.I then said"no boys in the girl bedroom."I walked to my bed and sat down.

[Daisuke_Shugo1]

-Blaze-
I had been looking around for a bit now, sighing as I finally got up and went to the bathroom to look at myself. Other than a bunch of bruises and cuts, which really was the normal for me, I just shrugged and turned back into the room itself to find Kronos still there.

"Well since you're here make yourself at home. Not like I wanted to be alone," I sighed as the bed looked rather comfortable now. Why was it that whenever I want one thing to happen something opposite ends up taking up my time. I jumped up on the bed and started blaring more music, this time some Japanese song from the band Breakerz that I didn't really want to check at the moment, giving a very quiet howl before sleeping again.

((Kronos is still with Blaze... Another time of him interacted with Aeryn.))

º•˙Spec˙•º

The scary girl's mouth was slightly agape, enough to where I could see blood flowing freely. Each breath of hers was a mangled wheeze. It looked as if her day had been a rough one, to say the least.

"Where's Spec?" Cailyn asked, diverting my attention away from the girl.

"I'm right he--" I began to respond before I cut myself off, remembering that I didn't look like myself at the moment. At times, it was difficult being an illusionist, keeping up with all these disguises and losing track of who I had touched last, as I could only hold onto one capable illusion at a time. For example, I wouldn't be able to turn into that flight attendant lady unless I encountered her again.

Anyways, I fumbled as I searched for an excuse for Spec's abrupt "disappearance." "Er, um, uh, I--I don't know...." I mumbled, losing momentum and credibility as my eyes darted away from Cailyn's demanding ones.

"What happened to Spec?" She questioned, edging ever closer. Sweating, I gradually backed up until my back was against the door.

Without warning, the scary girl started stirring in sleep. Feeling as if a bomb was going to go off, I scurried out the door, calling out, "Err, I'll be right back with the food!" I neither wanted to answer Cailyn nor wanted to be in the room when that girl woke up.

When I finally approached the cafeteria, I briefly wondered if there would be anyone left to give me some food (since it was getting pretty late and all), much less any food in the first place. Once inside, the only person I saw was the surly lunch lady, busily cleaning up for the night, complete with furrowed brows as thick as the hair on her upper lip.

I tried to hide, but she had already caught me with her predator's gaze. To my surprise, her fierce eyes softened as she got a better look at me.

"Harriet!" The lunch lady exclaimed, breaking into a gentle smile that I would have never expected to see on the likes of that woman. "What are you doing here?"

"Uuuuhhhhhhhh..." I said stupidly. Way to think on your feet, Spec!

"Oh, come here!" The lunch lady invited, holding open her arms in a hug that appeared very bear-like. "I know exactly what you're looking for!"

"Uhhhh--"

"Hold on ONE second." The hairy woman turned around and disappeared into the kitchen. A great deal of rustling and scuffling sounded before she emerged with a hefty bag that rivaled with those I had to deal with when I was a flight attendant.

"A little midnight snack," she beamed, handing me the bag. I was immediately brought to the floor by its immense weight.

"Well, technically it's not even close to midnight," the lunch lady mused. "BUT I just want to make sure that my daughter'll grow up big and strong!"

"Um--"

"Now off to bed with you!" She said, shooing me away.

Well, that was, erm, convenient, I thought after leaving that weird situation behind, dragging the leaden bag the tiring way back to Cailyn's room.

((Oh, and BTW: Aeryn's hood is still covering her face and hair, so no one knows what she looks like yet (except perhaps Kronos).))

KRONOS

Blaze seemed to be his usual self again. Though usual was an abnormal word in itself. In order to classify Blaze as usual, that implied that he was normal. And wasn't he? He was of a race, though rare, that still had a population as to not be classified as out of the norm. Kronos took a time to recall his interactions with Blaze to decide if he should interfere any more yet. He slowly shifted to a sitting pose and then sat on the ground. He'd make sure Blaze didn't do anything "rash" the next day and simply watched as Blaze settled down for sleep. The feeling of tiredness called him into asking where his current self was.

- - - - - - - - -

Kronos barely noticed when the other roommate and an oddly-formed female entered the room. An issue had risen in the 34th century that seemed most interesting. When the second girl spoke his name, Kronos blinked back to his physical form and looked up. Kronos noticed his trino-cube was still visible and quickly through it up having it disappear back to where it came from. He hadn't planned on interacting with many others in this plane, but decided it wasn't worth a recall. Aeryn stirred in her trauma-induced sleep. The others didn't seem to notice him much, so he stood and walked over to Aeryn. The girl had been through a lot for one so young, and more awaited around every turn ... for all of them. With his back turned so the others wouldn't see, he pulled out a small tab, similar to a cheap tattoo, and placed it on her neck. "That should stave off the worst of it. Consider it my thanks," he quietly says to her.
