Ares rolled his eyes, and was sure that the motion would be conveyed to Evermore in some way. I know that. But I needed to talk to you. It seems that Bai Ching is a very attractive place for gods to just go. Aphrodite is there. He paused. He didn't really know what else to say. Originally, he had wanted to tell her this so that she would be on the lookout, but... Now Aphrodite was on his side. If there were sides right now, anyway. He didn't really know where to go with this, but he knew she would want to know.

Ever knew that Ares was rolling his eyes at her. She didn't see it, but she got that same sensation in her gut that she got when he rolled his eyes at her. That was a pretty cool aspect of telepathy.
Ever simply sighed to Ares and hoped that he sensed her shaking her head. She honestly wasn't that shocked, surprisingly enough, that another god had shown up. Maybe when she was attacked in the lake yesterday, it had triggered some sort of signal to the gods that attracted them all here. Maybe that was what Ever was supposed to be guarding, something in the lake! And the gods had arrived to get whatever information out of her that they could! God, meditating was awesome! She couldn't wait to tell Akira this! They should start investigating the lake! Or maybe if they found the room, it would tell them more about the lake. She should really follow the headmistress's advice. It had never steered her wrong before. But Ever felt like she had just discovered a large part of the puzzle!
She was so excited and awe-struck that responding to Ares was almost like an after thought. "Ares... thanks for letting me know, but now I have to get back to meditating. Time is almost up and my class will begin in an hour. If you have some issue with Aphrodite, you should sort it out yourself."

Ares sighed back, and mumbled, I think I already have. But he wasn't sure. Either way, he just shrugged. Alright. But she's in disguise, and probably wanted to keep it that way. She's working there, apparently. Just thought you'd want to know. And he didn't want her to get mad at him just in case she found out that he'd known and he hadn't told her. Somehow, that just seemed to be how it would end...

Ever wasn't trying to be rude, but he was so focused on her new discovery that she barely heard Ares now. She really hoped that Akira would arrive soon! And maybe Aurora would like to join them in their search! Altan could help them, too! He was so smart. A Sphinx helping them would be invaluable! Man, Ever was so incredibly excited! For the first time, she felt that she had discovered a large part of why she was here!
Yeah, okay, Ares. Thanks. I'll talk to you later....
Ever opened her eyes and waited for Aurora to be done meditating and for Akira to show up. She wanted to talk with them at the same time. And, Ever was so happy that she had completed meditation that morning! The rest of the day would be far less stressful than yesterday, and meditating had already opened her mind enough her to discover something big!

Ares pulled a face as she brushed him off, closing the temporary link with a final, Tonight. Women. Geez, what could she be doing? She was just meditating!

drag0ntamer (ok so since ive been busy and havent posted in a few days because of this this event will be happening the previous day.) Before saying goodbye to the professor Kindra asked for directions to the Headmistresses office, reassuring the professor that she wouldnt get lost on her own. After a bit of walking through the school and ignoring some of the stares she got from the students she soon arrived at the door to the headmistresses office. She Knocked on the door and patiently awaited the ok to go inside. Tired, Arielle opened the door. "Come in," she said. She looked at Kindra, and instantly knew the girl was not already a student. Mustering up a polite smile, she asked, "How may I help you?"

Kindra walked into the office once the door was opened. "My name is Kindra. I'm from the Mystic Fountain high school and I decided to transfer to this school." She made a quick look around the office and then faced the headmistress. "Though this will be my first time being in an all girl school."

Arielle nodded at Kindra. "Alright. Please, take a seat." She motioned to the chairs in front of her desk. Then, reseating herself, she pulled out the same list of classes that she had used earlier that day--oh, how long ago that was--with Caroline, and a second, smaller parchment. "You'll have to fill this out for me, please, and get a parent or guardian's signature. If you don't have anyone, then your own signature will do just fine." She pointed to the smaller paper, and handed it and a self-replenishing quill to Kindra.

Akira headed down the hallway in a daze, remembering the latest events and the reason why her dog ears, tail, fangs, and claws where gone, even though it wasn't the night of the new moon!
The girl had woken up slowly, groaning softly at the ache and pains of her tired body, had sat up and had blinked at least a hundred times as Kilala had invaded her mind, practically panicking and babbling on and on about last night, but extremely happy to her the girl awake and well.
She had held her familiar in a warm hug, having taking in everything and having remembering bits and pieces. Then, once she'd felt well enough to walk, she'd gone to the bathroom and had stared into the mirror for a good 10 minutes in complete disbelief at her very mortal looking reflection.
Honestly confused, lost, shaken up, and not hungry in the least, Akira had taken a well deserved shower, gotten dressed, brushed her teeth, and had tied her hair in two highish ponytails. Thankfully she had another pair of shoes handy, but she vowed she'd go hunting for her favorite pair later on.
Now, she, and Kilala, silently made it to their destination and Akira sat down, sighing heavily as she did so, looking completely miserable and bewildered.
How was she going to explain something she barely understood herself!?

Aphrodite entered her office, and the first thing she did was open the blinds. She hated the dark. Setting her papers on her desk, she sighed. Aphrodite, erm, Aphira didn't have a terribly busy day... it was just a tedious one. She ruffled through her sticky notes, and decided to call in Evermore first. Mostly because she was curious. First period technically hadn't started yet, so Aphira decided to wait until she got there. Humming to herself, she turned on her radio and began to write out her call slips for the day.

As Ever was waiting for Aurora to finish with her meditation, she finally saw Akira coming down the hall. She smiled brightly and waved. Finally!! And as soon as Aurora was finished meditating, which wasn't much longer, Ever turned to both Akira and Aurora and smiled.
"Ok! We all have an hour before our classes start, so I'd like to run something by you all."
She turned her face to Aurora and smiled. "Aurora, I know we haven't known each other for very long, but I'd like to tell you something that I've only told Akira and the headmistress. I believe that Altan would be very helpful in what Akira and I are trying to find, and you'd be fun to have along."
"First of all, I want you to know that I'm a Fury. In other words, I'm a goddess. A 2nd generation goddess. Honestly, not that big of deal. I've only been alive for 3 years, even though I look 16. But, I have a lot more knowledge than most 3 year olds. I was created with much of the knowledge my mothers and father."

Aurora blinked at this new information. Well... that was most certainly unexpected. "Oh my," she said. "That is unusual." It was probably quite obvious, but what was she to say to this? Altan watched Evermore with curiousity, walking over to sit attentively next to Aurora rather than laying in the warm spot of sun.
A Fury? he asked, his voice resonating in all three of the girls' minds. That would explain your aura. It is much stronger than most of the girls'. He stopped talking then, though normally he would begin to speak on about what he knew of Furies for (probably) far too long. Aurora liked to listen, but he didn't think the other girls were looking for a lecture right now.

Akira forced an artificial smile onto her lips, vaguely wondering why Evermore was so excited and when the Fury would notice the lack of dog ears on the stop of her head! Hmm her best friend probably had some huge, brighten plan up her sleeves!
This brightened up the "mortal" girl a little, but her blue eyes that had lost most of it's demonickness widened greatly; Had Ever just told Aurora her biggest secret!?
Kilala curled up near her shocked and troubled master, looking at Altan curiously and friendly.
Shaking her head, Akira grinned (a real one) at Aurora.
"Hard to believe, huh?"
The dog Hanyou blinked when a male's voice entered her mind though and she too looked at the Sphinx, at least that's what she thought the male feline was, with amazed and curious eyes; He could speak mentally as well? Neat!
Wait...
"Hey Ever...Your hair is red? Are you angry?" didn't the Fury's hair usually turn that color when she was furious?

Aurora returned Akira's grin with a very small smile of her own. It seemed to be more out of politeness, though it could easily be attributed to the fact that she simply did not portray her emotions very often.
Altan returned Kilala's stare. He could tell that she was a two-tailed demon; it was rather obvious. He just wondered how she had ended up here, of all places. Bai Ching was not known for being friendly to demons or 'dark' creatures.

Ever smiled at everyone and nodded to their different statements and questions. She also hadn't noticed her best friend's lack of dog ears because she was so excited to share what she had discovered. Well, she was almost certain she had discovered something big. There HAD to be something in the lake. She just knew it. All these things did not happen at the same time purely by coincidence.
Ever also quickly responded to Akira's question about her hair by nodding and speaking quickly, "I learned how to keep it this way if I chose to without staying angry! Part of my god powers I guess."
She actually rose up from her sitting position to rest on her knees she was so excited.
"Well, yesterday, I was attacked in the lake. Akira and I were both there. This... thing grabbed my ankle and started to pull me down. For some reason, it let go and I swam back to the surface. But after that, a couple of hours, actually, Ares popped up when his former horse Phobos chased me there. I thought he showed up to watch his horse frighten me, but today, while I was meditating, he told me that Aphrodite, the Goddess of Love, is here now, too! And yesterday, Professor Akakios from Mystic Fountain High School was also here, and he's part god! This all happened after I was attacked!"
She took a longer breath here to draw in more air. She had been taking in shorter, quicker breaths so that she could keep talking.
Now, she continued. "Don't you see what this means?! It's the lake! There's got to be something in it that the gods want! It's incredibly deep, so deep that no one has been able to get down there, and it's so magical that it's attracted many magical creatures to the forest that surrounds it, and magical light fairies and spirits dance across its surface every night!"
She looked excitedly between Aurora, Akira, and Altan to see if they were as excited as she was.
