Welcome to Gaia! ::

((Perry, you wanna time skip here and go to after they're done? XP ))

Lana, Grace and Matt sat around at the table. Matt asked Lana about her grades and how things were at school. Lana talked about how her grades were all passing at least, and that there was a kid at school trying to get the best of her. Grace was gentle and quiet, watching her family. She seemed serene... Happy. In fact, there was a look behind her eyes that suggested she'd never been this happy in a long time. The meal was nearing its end, and Matt started asking Leon some questions. "So Leon, do you work? Whats your job? You got a girlfriend? Did you go to school?"

The vine Cappy was asleep in slid her to a standing position. Erin looked at Cappy. "Flowers don't bloom in slumber." she said.

Ash's eyes narrowed. "I know exactly where he is." She looked over at Clone. We better get back to the house before they send someone. Come on, quickly." Ash took Clone's hand and coaxed her back to the house.

"Mm-hmm... Interesting. You possess the powers of darkness. You'll want to search for Isamu, the janitor. She'll tell you where to go from here. Ah, Hypatia, will you take him to find her?"

Hypatia sighs, but nods. "Sure, come on, darling." She said to Necro, "We have a counselor to find."

Grodin nodded. "She's my true love. I'll never see her again... She has passed on, and now because of my wish I will never be reunited with her..."

Caleb looked at Doug and understood his sudden need to protect Clara. That was the instinct fear gave him. "Be still, I cannot cause you harm... Under Dr. Hughe's guidance."

"Sort of," Narco said with a grin, "I've pt too much effort on you to give to some yutz. You're like a daughter to me, Madeline. No, I'm giving you the task to do something I would trust no one else to do. It is because of your skill, training and dedication that I need you to do this task. What I need you to do... Is guide Leon. No matter where he goes or what he does, I'll need you to follow him. Secretly or openly is your choice, but you must stay with him and report to me." He gave her a brown journal and a pen. "Whatever you write in here, I will know. Write down all you can, every detail, and watch him."

The male-looking janitor looked lazily at Phoebe. "Sorry, I'm just the janitor." Isamu got the vaccum ready, then finally said, "You've made a lot of messes for me to clean. Busted holes, scattered papers, once a room splattered in blood. Sure, most of these messes were not you directly, but you've made your share, and your power over that Nightmare demon is unbelievable."

"What would I know? I'm just the janitor." Isamu started the vaccum, which was pretty quiet, and some time later after she was finished, this male-looking janitor started wrapping up the vacuum cord.

"This Academy was built as a sort of correction facility for those with uncontrollable powers. Those who are outcasted from the rest so that they may be trained to understand and enhance their powers. Now students even seek this place to look for strength, shelter and stability. Your parents worked here, and your father's parents, and the parents before that. Dr. Hughes has been here since the very beginning and was a very strong pillar in the making of this Academy. Some think he has some sort of ulterior motive but no one has gotten him to talk... But I'm just the janitor, so I could be wrong."

Madeleine stared at him her mouth a little agap he was allowing her to do this? This was a major assignment, following and guiding......it was weeks before she got to go with him at one. And it is Leon of all people...i mean..he.....well she couldn't say that she didn't think he was cute..or that she didn't feel for him.
"Sir...." it was serious when she said sir, "...are there things I should include, such as...." she blushed, "personal...situations?". Narco loved getting into her business. Does Peng know this was happening?

Leon looked at her shocked. "I'm... not sure how I know that. I..." He looked down, starting to cry. It was true, he had found his family alive and well. They were happy and seemed to be doing fine. He wiped away a few tears but they wouldn't stop. He stood up abruptly. "I... Thank you for the meal. Mom. Dad. Lana..." He said suddenly and ran out of the room. He ran outside the house but tripped at the door. He fell to his knees, losing control. He had finally found out his family was safe. But... he shouldn't burden them. They seemed happy, and he had a way of bringing trouble wherever he went. Just knowing they were safe would have to be enough for him, for their sake. He slowly stood up, trying to force himself to keep walking away. No part of him wanted to leave though.

Leon couldn't take it anymore. He needed direct answers now. He gave into his impulses as he let his wolf form take over. He let out a howl, which was joined by the nearby wolves before he took off running towards town. He needed to find peng, immediately. He had conflicted feelings but he knew he could trust peng. He ran as fast as he could towards the order, and eventually saw it in the distance. He let out another howl, hoping peng would recognize it as he ran towards the building and jumped, shifting while still running. Leon's eyes showed a murderous rage in them as he looked around for peng.

Leon seemed like he was about to snap at Peng but took a deep breath. Peng had nothing to do with it, it'd be unfair to snap at him. He knew his parents before right? He stared at peng for a minute. "They're alive. I met them. I need to talk to Narco or Nero. Now. Please take me to them, i don't want to have to draw them towards me some other way." Leon said, clearly grasping at straws at the end of his patience, but trying to behave. His fist clenched tightly at his side.

Phoebe blinked at Isamu and nodded slowly. "I see... Thank you" she said, smiling softly. "You must really care about this school to know so much about it and its founders. It's refreshing to get some answers. What else can you tell me?"
