Welcome to Gaia! ::

((I'm bored && they're reviewing how to use excel which I've known how to use since like, fourth grade, so I'll write as Sammy. :] I'll format when my mommy leaves the house later on tonight. >>; -isn't allowed to be on the computer very much anymore.- A lot of BS, but yeah. :] I luhs you? ))

The college student roamed the halls of the hospital, hands crammed into his shorts' pockets, eyes searching for a cafeteria of some sort. Since the initial shock of his brother and his new what Samson assumed was his girlfriend's accident was wearing off, he couldn't muster up the bravery to ask for some directions. He figured it was alright though, he had time to kill after all. The boy hadn't any classes or important events that day, and he felt a bit of a need to be there for easy access for Demetri. He watched nurses pass, other visitors, all with the same odd expression- one he supposed he wore not long earlier. It was a mixture of nerves and concern, with a dash of contempt for being in a hospital. Although the nurses and doctors that passed didn't wear that as often; Sam had never met a person that was in a hospital. The male passed a dark room with a window inside, and saw his reflection.

How he had changed in the short year, his light brown hair had been fixed with a box of Loreal hair dye and now was a dark brown- almost black- not to mention it had gotten longer. And to most people's suprise, he had grown a little. Most men had finished growing by his age, but Sammy was an odd character, always growing. Since he was in college, he figured he was done finally. He picked up a lock of dark hair, frowned at it, thinking, "Perhaps it's time for a trim." Looking away from the Sam with the new piercing in the window, he continued in his journey for his addiction.

About fifteen minutes later, the boy had barely managed to order a cup of coffee from a cashier. He mumbled, scratched his head, turned a color near purple, and stammered his request. The male manning the cashier just laughed at his shy manner, and asked him for an autograph. Sam cocked his head in response, and the cafe worker continued, "You were in that band right?" The dark brunet frowned, swiped up his coffee, and shook his head. "I-I have a...familiar face." He stammered out, blushing. 'Band, me? No way. If I could barely order a coffee, there's no way I could be on stage.' Slumping into a cafeteria chair, the male sipped at his coffee, savoring the taste.

[[ Hiiiiieeeeeee KIKI~ ]]

Elijah blinked as some random kid banged into Zander. He wasn't sure what the other kid had been doing, but to Elijah, he looked to be quite nervous, and tended to stammer a lot. Eli bit down on his lip ring, not saying anything. He preferred to be quiet, unless he actually had something worthwhile to add to the conversation. The dark-haired male turned his attention back to Damien and Bella, two of whom he had just met. The girl seemed okay; she was from a foreign place, which seemed like it culd be interesting. The guy seemed nice enough, though Eli was a tad against the color he had put in his hair. But to each his own, right?

When Zander decided he was going to run off with Damien to the music room, Eli got... kind of annoyed. He hadn't even invited Eli to tag along or anything. And then, telling him his dorm number and to find him later... well, if he thought that was going to make everything better... it kind of did. Not really... but sorta. He glanced at Bella, looking for her reaction. He then turned and looked at the other guy, the one with the big brown eyes... that was what Eli noticed first. He didn't say anything... no, he was being typical Eli now. Zander had sort of made him talk, in a sense... but now, there was no point. He simply glared at the pair's retreating backs, knowing full well he was incapable of holding a grudge.

"I'm play six instruments," replied Zander, "and I'm a vocalist. Music is essentially my life."

He stared up at the ceiling, curious as how to Damien would respond. He had various responses from people when he was asked about music. Anything from awe to sheer envy. Both reactions made sly grins form on his face. He certainly loved the reactions. They were amusing. Of course, he had worked hard for those reactions. He had been playing as long as he could remember.

"How about you, kid?"

Bella had zoned out and by the time she had come back Zander and Damien had left and Bella had been to zoned out so she didn’t know where to two boys had run off to Eli seemed to be a little confused and hurt that the other guys seemed to have ditched him. She sighed happily, and broke off from the now two person group ”Hey Eli, I guess I‘ll see you later! If you want to talk I‘ll either be in the halls or maybe the music room.” Bella waved and she walked slowly back to her dorm, she had gotten lots of lyrics for a new song she had been working on for a while now. She took her time getting back to her dorm, she took in very small detail of the school getting to know it like the back of her hand.
After more time of aimless wondering, she walked to her dorm and got settled down. She changed into some black pajama shorts and a white camisole. She walked to go get her guitar, and her music journal. She sat on her bed and began putting notes to words, she tested out a few melodies on her guitar until she found just the right one. ”That sounds nice.” She smiled, feeling slightly accomplished. She wondered if they had a piano in the music room, she hadn’t practiced in a very long time. Her mother always said ’A lady should be well versed in a graceful instrument not that thing- That gui-tar.’ Bella shook her head she could believe she wanted to appease her late drug addict mother but she did. She wanted to show that she could master the piano.
After a moment of battling her own conscience she decided she should. She pulled on her black skinny jeans again, and her black fishnet shirt with the rips in the shoulder, then she pulled on her ’Butterfly Suicide’ shirt. She reached into her bag that was completely dedicated to sheet music, and notebooks and got out two of her favorite piano pieces. ”The Merry-Go-Round Of Life, Moonlight Sonata.” She walked from her dorm, she had grown tired of wearing high heels today so she just had on a pair of black flats. She walked down the hall, and then stopped to look around ”Music room.” She repeated to herself, she had her sheet music and notebook in one hand and her guitar in the other ”I hope they have a piano.” She whispered to herself. It was her nature to be curious and once she had her mind set on something she wanted to get that done right way nothing was going to stop her.
After a little while of re tracing her steps back through the school, Bella found hall three. She looked from door to door, until she found the music room ”Finally.” she smiled happily, she hoped that no one was in there to bug her, she liked working alone.
Bella opened the door and to her surprise and almost to her horror, Zander and Damien. She decided to ignore them, because they seemed to be in their own little conversation. Her smile grew as she found that they did have a piano, ”Good..” She said more or less thinking aloud. Bella set her guitar down next to the seat at the piano ”I hope you don’t mind me practicing, I’ll try and be quiet..” She shifted through her sheet music and found ‘The Merry-Go-Round Of Life’ She smiled the piece was meant for strings and piano, but she had transposed the music to just a piano part. Bella placed her hands on the creamy white keys, and played as softly as she could. Her slender fingers slid gracefully along the white and black keys of the piano. She slowly got lost in the music that flooded her ears. She wasn’t playing loud because she didn’t want to upset Zander or Damien, but the, melody was still beautiful. After a while she forgot that Damien and Zander were there, she closed her eyes and kept playing.
After the song was over, she smiled happily "Just like riding a bike, you never forget." Bella smiled and leaned back a little, before she remembered that Damien and Zander were there. Though when she remembered she didn't turn around to face him, she was still trying to think of what she could do to make the music better.

Holly picked up her two big bags and watched the black car as it drover away. Her driver got lost on the way to the school, Holly was arguing with him the whole way here. She turned away from the street and started walking up the stairs at the front. It did not seem like such a bad day this morning when she got out of bed. It all started going down hill when she was cooking breakfast. Stupid hot pan, mad her so mad. Her hand was in a bandage because she accidentally touched the pan. Then she misplaced half of her things, and THE STUPID DRIVER LOST HIS WAY!!.
Holly sighed angrily and kept walking. On the paper she looked at earlier it said dorm number five.

"Two....Three.....Four....Five! "
Holly said the door numbers as she passed them and got to her dorm. 'Well this is it Holly...', she thought as she opened the door to her new life.

Emmunal felt so stupid, and he shook a little, eyes glancnig to the ceiling. He was not okay. Dark clouded his eyes suddenly, worry, anger, a mixture of a sudden mood swing. He moved swiftly across the open campus and into the dormitory building, going up to lucky dorm number 3.

This time he noticed yet another person's stuff... but Sam hadn't unpacked yet. This brought the realization that he had two other roommates in the room. He wanted to scream in agitation. He didn't want to deal with people right now... Poor Emmy. Moving to his bed, he reached under and pulled out a cage. He reached in and removed a palm sized turtle. On the bottom of the shell, in Sharpie, it read 'Phodius-George Khrisen. If found, please call this number:' and then listed Emmy's cell phone. He sighed and petted the cool shell. Always cool.

He lay on the bed, stomach on the bedsheets, letting the little reptile climb all over his little bed. He smiled and kissed its decorated shell, petting the head lightly.



And there’s never any rain, when you want it...


A hollow little game, and you’ve won it...


Looking for a thrill but you’ve done it all...


So long, put your blue jeans back on girl.

Ivy sighed and lifted her feet from the ground, curling them beneath her and shifting on the bench into a more comfortable position. Nightwish's Planet Hell faded out, and Rammstein's Spieluhr began to play, the music box's melody drifting into her conciousness and the singer's voice beginning to speak.

"Ein kleiner Mensch stirbt nur zum Schein
wollte ganz alleine sein
das kleine Herz stand still für Stunden
so hat man es für tot befunden
es wird verscharrt in nassem Sand
mit einer Spieluhr in der Hand..."


The guitars and drums kicked in, and Ivy smiled to herself very slightly. She was able to be a different person with music, a more cheerful, more creative person with more guts to do the things she wanted to do...

She bit her lip on a grin as the first chorus began and stood, shaking her dark hair slightly and stretching her shoulders, deciding to go for an actual walk around the campus...

with the locksmith now having come and gone, kumaya could now reach her bags and such things from her car. she was doing so now, loading her shoulders with the three bags she'd brought. there was another bag, but that one wasn't as important now. remembering at the last second to pocket her keys instead of leaving them on the seat again, kumaya locked the doors to her little datsun 260 z-x and went up to te administration building. she collected her dorm number and key from the sweet lady behind the desk, and went off to the dorm building to unpack. when she reached dorm two, she unlocked the door, and was mildly surprised to see someone's stuff there already. she shrugged.

"ah, roommates. oh well."

she'd kind of been looking forward to not having roommates, but shrugged the thought off. she had grown up as an only child. she was used to having things to herself, however spoiled she may be. she wasn't actually all that spoiled, but she did tend to get the better of things. oh well, that was what happened when you were the only child - however adopted - of a couple who couldn't have children. she was almost happy that she didn't have any siblings. she smiled as she finished unpacking her clothes into one of the two remaining empty dressers. shrugging off her jacket, she left on her camo jumper dress that fell just above her knees. adjusting the thick straps, she left the dorm with her ipod playing quietly. she could hear music in the dorm hallway, carrying down the stairs. it sounded like t.a.t.u. that made her laugh. humming along to meefisshu no uta, koi gara no suihou by her favourite band, ayabie, she left the dor building to catch some fresh air after unpacking. not that the dorms weren't clean-smelling, just kumaya was one of those people who loved the outdoors, however much she failed to survive well in it.

ayame smiled as she heard demetri talking to the air and her at the same time. he listed the events that they'd been through that day. she hardly remembered what had happened during the wreck. all she remembered was a crunch, pain, and then blackness. she figured it was temporary amnesia and that it would go away.

"mm.. yeah. strange first day for you, huh?"

she smiled and closed her eyes. the drugs were definitely kicking in a bit, but if demetri was determined to stay awake then so was she. she wasn't about to leave him laying there awake in the hospital room. then it would seem like he was alone, and she had this feeling that a nurse would probably come in at some point during that time, and she would be taken out of the room. it honestly wouldn't surprise her. she didn't even know if she was technically supposed to be walking right now. she knew that if she hadn't worn her seatbelt she certainly wouldn't be lying on a hospital bed with her new boyfriend. instead, her body would be laying in one of those body bags in a freezer drawer thing in the morgue. she shivered at the thought.

kyoshi smiled as ian's fingers laced through his own. did ian perhaps still nurture those same feeling kyoshi had? it was possible, but not likely. he laughed when ian said that they really didn't have to go for a popsicle. he smiled at the younger, taller male. oh sure, they weren't with eachother anymore, but they could still be friends. kyoshi wasn't about to let that die.

"so am i, ian. so am i."

he smiled and started walking toward one of the on-campus restaurants. he was a bit hungry, and he was almost certain that ian was also. why else would ian have asked if they could go for a popsicle. he sighed happily. he was so glad to be with ian again, even if they were only friends now. who knew, maybe they would be more than that later. kyoshi had to banish that thought from his head. the chances of them getting back together were slim, but it wasn't because they hated eachother. he wasn't sure why, but he just couldn't really picture himself dating ian again. it would be nice if they could though...

Damien Shepherd

[******** it all and no regrets,
I hit the lights on these dark sets.
I need a voice to let myself
To let myself go free.


Damien was a little impressed with Zander's abilities. Although he didn't show it on his face, which gave a small grin. "That's sounds pretty cool.." He noticed Bella walk in and head to the piano, giving her a small wave as she walked by. He decided to leave her to her practice. If she was anything like himself she didn't like being interrupted during practice.

He then headed for the door, turning back to look at the two. "I'm gonna go get my guitar.." Just like that Damien vanished from the room. He was glad that there were others here who enjoyed music as much as he did. So caught up in his own thoughts Damien didn't even realize how quickly he got to the dorms. Within a few minutes he was in his room, guitar in hand. Sadly his father had never bought a case for it so he usually carried on his back with the black leather strap. Taking his flask of his favorite alcoholic beverage he left. He locked the door and was quickly outside. He took a swig from his flask, the alcohol hitting him hard. He shook his head a bit and walked off in the direction of the music room. He made sure to hide his flask before waltzing back into the room.

"oh a request was it? well then, you're lucky you're a pretty girl."

koido grinned down at the girl. tease him, would she? he grinned wider, rather devilishly. the piece of cloth wrapped around his face only made him look a bit sinister. well, koido felt rather peeved right now, but he didn't exactly want to take out his peeves on this pretty little girl. and man was she little, she was almost a foot shorter. she was pretty, though. that's what made him hesitate. maybe he should flirt with her, that'd be fun. his smile changed from dastardly and evil to flirtatious and slightly seductive.

"i don't serenade women who aren't beautiful."

Bella heard Damien leave, she hoped he would come back because she felt slightly awkward in there with just Zander. While he was gone she managed to run Moonlight Sonata, which was her favorite piano piece one she had nearly perfected before she had stopped practicing religiously.
When she heard him come back in she smiled, Bella turned around and sat with her elbows on her knees and her hands hanging limply in between her legs ”Is everyone here musically gifted? It seems that music is everyone‘s passion here. I bet a band or two will spring up sooner or later.” She smiles at Damien, and notices his guitar ”Are you any good?” Bella was very blunt with her question, it was almost a trap. If he said yes he might be considered conceited, if he said no then well that would just be lack of self confidence. She packed up her sheet music into her own guitar case, she was more of an acoustic girl but she did have an electric one that she almost never played. Her phone beeped, she had a new text message. She would check it later though, as she had noticed before Zander was picky about the times when people checked their phones so she decided not to look until she felt the moment was right. Bella stretched her fingers out, they were a little sore after playing so much. Both of the songs she played were particularly difficult in the fact that both hands were moving constantly during the whole song. She massaged her right hand with her left hand and a wince came over her face, she had carpal tunnel in her right hand from writing so much and practicing for hours on end with out a break. The doctor had said that if she didn’t stop soon or get some or of treatment that she might have to stop playing the piano, and the guitar and also stop writing. Bella was worried slightly that her wrists were hurting so much but she didn’t show the worry in her eyes, she just sat there smiling, wincing every once and a while. A few minutes passed and her wrist pain slowly subsided. Bella stretched back and leaned against the piano, a satisfied happy look on her face.

Demetri stared at the picture on the wall for a moment, sleep slowly setting within his bones. The countryside he was staring at still taunted him, making him desperately want to go outside and play soccer. It bothered him that he wouldn't be able to play for a while now. He realized he wouldn't be able to do much of anything. 'Some way to start college,' he thought angrily to himself. He didn't know why he was angry. 'Must be the pain killers,' he told himself. The brunette closed his eyes, feeling his eyelids growing heavier. Ayame's voice filled his ears, but he made no attempt to reply back with words. The words wouldn't come. They stopped at his throat and faded into a small breath. The medications were wearing at the boy. Giving Ayame's hand a light squeeze, he held his eyes shut and tried to let sleep take him.
