Keller Green
He shook his head, waving a hand frantically at Armageddon as he was nudged with the man's boot. "She doesn't miss me! Helen never misses me!" Keller continued to whine, falling face-forward to the ground and shuffling his phone out of his pocket. He slid it upwards, stopping it beside his head and pressing on Helen's face, speed-dialing her. "Helen!! My love!"
Hearing the new boy speak, Keller looked up and squinted at him, vision blurry but the image of a neko popping out at him. "Yer nuthin' special," he said, taking on Armageddon's growl for a second before returning to his own tone. "Really though, there's a lot of you walking around campus. I just met one the other day." Rolling, his eyes, he then started crying once more for Helen.

 Felix snapped to face the man, his aura forming flames around his eyes. "What did you just say!?" He teleported to the man with thunderous roar. His aura now a blood red and forming wings from his back. His teeth full on barred. The snow white cloak began to darken until it was as black as the darkest night. As he stood over the young man, his voice took on a darker, more serious tone. "Nothing special, eh? How about now! AM I SPECIAL NOW!!" Felix's aura formed into the shape of a scythe, made of black fire. He grabbed the scythe and slammed it into the ground with a loud and pronounced thud. "I have searched across the seven continents of this world! I have been regarded as a demon by some, as a savior by few, and as a creature by all. I have found none of my brethren! Why should I believe a stoner who has spent the last hour crying and screaming nonsense?!" Felix remembered where he was and snapped out of his rage. As Felix calmed down his aura returned to the same shade of blue, the cloak to its usual snow white, the wings vanished, the scythe disappeared, and his eyes returned to normal. As he crouched down by the strange young man, he leaned in. "Where? Where are they?"

Keller Green
Keller watched in silence as the angry boy came close and transformed. His expression remained disinterested, maybe even bored, and when the boy finally moved away, Keller stood up and tucked his hands into his back pockets. "I may be a stoner, but at least I don't throw a tantrum when someone tells me that I'm not unique, and I'm not. My sister smokes the same weed I do that makes it so that we can see people for what they really are, and this creature that you happen to be? It's not unique. You aren't special. Get over yourself and act like an adult." He cleared his throat, looking over the edge of the building. Keller suddenly didn't seem high anymore. He still was, of course, but it always took a while for his mind to adjust to the pure power of the magical marijuana that he and Helen bought. Fortunately, he was back to semi-normal now.
"Besides, you clearly don't know where you are. Everyone here is a monster in their own way. Armageddon's a powerful demon that's probably murdered millions of innocent people, Vala has a magical pendent around her neck that helps her feel vibrations and know where she is, hell, my French tutor eats human bodies to devour their sins. You aren't special here, you don't stand out. You're part of the unusual crowd in an academy that's filled with creatures. Don't you dare think of yourself as different when there are stories, lives far worse than yours just ten feet away from you." Rolling his eyes, he pulled out another joint, gesturing to the demon. "Oi, you got any fire power?" he asked, headache beginning to surface as the weed circled his system.

Armageddon A hand fell on top of both Felix's and Keller's heads. "Easy, brats." muttered the demon. He shook both of them enough to distract them from their feud - at least he hoped so - then let go of them to face them. His slit pupils went to Keller. "Stop trying to act like you're not scared out of your wit, kid. You don't have an excuse to be arrogant, not after that hell of a show you put up earlier." he griped. His eyes moved to Felix. "And the brat's right, kid. You might be the first of your kind, but you sure as hell ain't the only one that's been called a god or something else at one point or another. I ain't telling you you're special in your own way because that's crap. So was you tantrum. So was both of your tantrums. Sometimes I feel like I'm doing this place a favor when I get rid of punks like you. You ain't gonna find who you want just by asking. Sh-t like this takes time, kid. Ain't that right, lover boy?" he called back to the stoned boy whose question he blatantly ignored.

Felix stood still, taking in all that has happened. The veins bulged in his wrists, flowing with adrenaline. As Keller readied his new joint, Felix's arms moved in a flash. He had drawn his blade. But, instead of attacking Keller, a different outcome had transpired. The end of the joint had been lit. The black blade slid slowly into its home. I am well aware of where it is I am living. It is the fact that I have heard testimony after testimony of what fantastic creatures roam the halls of this school. And yet, I have seen only those that have come to this garden.
I did have a tantrum, yes. But, I was paying my respects, a very personal task. When you accused me of Bein' nuthin' special I misinterpreted your remark. How, I do not know. What I do know is this; I am barely able to control when my rage surfaces and in what form. I, and I'm sure you are as well, am glad that a worse fate did not meet you." Felix began to wander through the rows of potted plants, stopping at a bright pink lotus. He sniffed the flower allowing his hyper-senses to enjoy the experience. An odd occurrence happened, Felix cracked a smile.

  listening to the arguments around her, Vala started feeling a little uneasy, she can handle one person being grumpy or angry and yelling all the time, but when everyone around her is getting rowdy, that, she can't handle. vala's brought her hands to her ears trying to block out the indignant voices. it was messing with the calm energy that was previously around her. She spun around and quickly scurried towards the door, in her rush to get away from the pugnacious group, she wasn't paying attention to her surroundings and stumbled over a pot, knocking it across the roof, as she tumbled across the ground into the wall.

Felix saw Valary cover her ears an run. He watched as she stumbled and fell, scattering flowers and other plants everywhere. He let out a soft chuckle. He pulled his blade from its sheath and used it to cut a single Lotus. He held it in his left hand and turned towards her. As he got to where she laid on the floor, he outstretched his right arm, offering to help her up. The lotus in his left hand began to float. Felix's aura was holding it in the air. The smell of the flower began to fill the air around them. "Hey, c'mon. You shouldn't be on the floor. I'm sorry." Felix's voice had a resentful tone to it. He had seen others on the floor, just how she laid. But the only difference being that those whom he had seen before were those who death had claimed. His face was mostly obscured by the shadow his hood cast. But there was enough revealed to show a single small tear flow from where his blind eye would be.

Being on the ground Vala could clearly feel the vibrations around, she could tell someone was coming her way, although she wasn't sure which of the many people it was. a scent that wasn't previously there surrounded her, she closed her eyes and took a deep breath letting the scent enter her sending a serene feeling flow throughout her body. hearing an apology from the person, she looked up in the direction of the body, reaching her hand up she accepted his arm as he helped her stand up right.stumbling slightly as a pain surged through her ankle, she gripped the arm tighter as she steadied herself, then took a deep breath inhaling the fragrance once again as it relaxed her "where is that smell coming from? it wasn't here a second ago." she asked curiously, her senses only allowing her to feel vibrations within the ground, and she couldn't detect any plants or flowers close enough to allow her to smell their aroma.

"That is a Lotus. One of nature's more beautiful creations. It is akin to being a sister to the famed Rose. I'm using my aura to enhance the fragrance of this flower." Felix took Valary's hand and ran her fingers along the flower's edges and faces, allowing her to paint a picture with her sense of touch. He had noticed how Valary had stumbled when she gripped his arm. As Valary tightly gripped his arm, his pulse jumped, almost to the point of his adrenaline high just minutes ago. He easily supported her. "I can tell your ankle is hurt. If I may, could I look and see?" Felix was worried that he was responsible for indirectly harming this innocent woman. Although he had been regarded as a monster his entire life, he still had a sense of compassion and empathy for those few innocent souls that still exist in the world. He removed his hood and his senses began working tenfold.

As Vala's hands were following the soft petals on the lotus, she felt a calm and tranquil ease wash over her. "beautiful" she whispered as a gentle smile emerged on her face and she took in the plant, memorizing its features as she caressed its smooth surface. She was shook from her tranquil state of mind when Felix mentioned her ankle. she had completely forgotten about it, as she was so absorbed in the lotus."of course" Vala answered. she lifted her foot and tested it by turning it round in a circle, she cringed as pain shot through it. "lets hope it doesn't need to be removed."she jokingly said with a light giggle.
Vala focused on her surroundings and slowly hobbled to the closest bench to sit down. if her ankle was hurt too badly she wouldn't be able to do her acrobatics, as she thought this she sighed and hoped it wasn't too bad.

Felix followed Valary over to the bench and began to lightly and carefully touch the ankle. Upon finishing his inspection, he reached for his backpack. He began to sift through the compartments, searching for a medical kit. Once Felix found the kit, he opened it and retrieved a small blue bag. He violently jerked the bag. Immediately, Felix gently placed the bag on Valary's ankle. It was a bag of ice. Felix chuckled as well at the small quib. Felix placed on layer of gauze on the ankle to keep it from moving too much. A pair of what looked to be collapsible lawn chairs emerged from Felix's bag. He unfolded them to show that they were, instead, collapsible crutches. He handed them to Valary. "Here, use these. It might be a bit tricky to get a hang of at first but I'm sure you'll get the hang of it.""I've got good news and bad news. The good news is that all you have is a sprained ankle. It should heal within one to two days. Now for the bad news. You're going to need to stay off of it while it heals. If you have to use your foot, try to put as little pressure on it as possible." Felix sniffed the air. He smelled phosphorus and diesel. He stood and began scanning the area with all his senses. He knew something, or someone was out there, watching them. His eyes caught a small change in the distant hills, a glint. A sadistic smile came over his face as he moved his right hand. It's palm to the sky, a javelin materialized an inch above Felix's hand. As Felix pointed the palm of his hand to where the glint emerged, a distant crack could be heard. Felix, in a blur of light, had moved his left hand in front of his face. His fingers held a small object, a bullet. Felix let out a sigh. "Mankind, so violent and dangerous." The javelin zoomed away from Felix into the hill side as he crushed the bullet in his hand.

ArmageddonArmageddon was observing Keller get high again when the pot Vala tripped over flew over and hit his head. He doubled over in shock, his arms out and fingers twitching as a lump formed on his head. "What the hell?!" he snarled and looked around to see where the pot came from. "Who did that?! I'll kill you!" he roared when something flew past him. He glanced to the side then back forward to see the neko muttering something while holding something he couldn't make out from this far away. Whatever the case, it didn't matter to him.
The demon looked back at Keller. There were way too many crazy things happening right now for this pipsqueak. "Come on, kid." he said as he heaved the boy over his shoulder, climbing onto the railing. "We're gettin' out of here." Without waiting for the kid on his shoulder to react, he hopped off.

Vala sighed when Felix told her she had to stay off her ankle for a couple of day, she sat feeling the weight of the ice-bag, taunting her. sighing dejectedly she grasped the crutches, and balanced them in her hands, they were light and easy to move. why did she have to be so careless, now how is she meant to enjoy herself.
as she held the crutches a smile slowly grew on her face as an idea formed in her mind."thanks, i think i can work with these." s he said to Felix as she carefully removed the ice-bag off her ankle, she placed it to the side of where she was sitting. placing the crutches on the ground she used them to pull herself up, she put he weight on them and walked around a bit getting used to them, so her idea can be put into action.
Hearing a noise, Vala spun around, new performance plans flying away from her mind. wondering what that crack sound was, hoping no one was hurt, whether they be near her or far away. focusing on everything around her trying to figure things out, something was different.
"they're gone, my new friends." she said as she noticed Mr. grumpy and Mr. bond's presence's had disappeared from the roof. sighing she shrugged, oh well, they couldn't stay here forever. with that she turned on the crutches back towards felix. "do you know what that sound was?" she asked slightly worried

Felix shook the ashen remains of the failed assassination out of the palm of his hand. "That was a killer. A man sent to eliminate me. A poor attempt at best. It's like I said before, I was revered as a savior by few, and as a demon by most. Some believe that they can kill me. Mankind fears that which it does not understand. I am such a creature." Felix was hit with a realization. If his assassins had found him here, surely they knew about all the other non-human students. A second distant glint emerged from the hills. Felix's eyes widened to focus. His heart began pumping adrenaline. His muscles tensed; readying themselves for work. He leaped to Valary, clasping her in his arms, shielding her from the incoming death. The round impacted him in his right shoulder blade. He let out a roar in pain. As he was knocked from Valary by the impact he flew a good five feet. He stood, now covered in his aura. A demonic scream echoed from his mouth. His voice took on a dark twisted tone. "You humans dare attack her!! I will grind you into the dirt!!" He twisted around to face his assailant. His wings emerged, he now took to the sky. He followed the bullet's vapor trail to the source. He found the sniper running for his life. He grasped his head and returned to the garden from which he launched. As Felix neared the rooftop garden he began to feel weak. Suddenly his rage dissipated and his aura disappeared. Still clutching the man, Felix fell from the sky. A heavy thud came from Felix as he impacted the concrete. He was losing blood. He let go of the attacker and began crawling to Valary. "Get... Help..." Felix fell unconscious from the wound he suffered protecting her.

Things started happening around Valary so quickly, she didn't understand a thing that was happening. she thought everything was fine, just a peaceful time talking to a guy who helped her when she was hurt.
until gun shots were herd, she was enclosed in arms, where she was jostled and the arms suddenly were gone from around her, as Felix was knocked away from her.
something was happening, something dangerous. Vala trying to figure out what was happening, enclosed her pendant in her grasp and focused on her surroundings. there was nothing. Felix was gone. apart from some over turned pots, she couldn't find anything.
a Loud crash echoed over the rooftop, and Vala could finally sense Felix again. but there was another body with him. Vala quickly shuffled over to Felix, when she heard him say something, she knew he was hurt, he sounded hurt, and by the way his breathing slowed down she could tell he had gone unconscious.
really worried now, and a little freaked out, as she had no idea what had just transpired she made it the last few feet over to where his body was and she collapsed beside him, knocking her crutches away from her."No, no no no....please be okay, you have to be alright" she slowly slid her hand down his head and over his body trying to find where he was hurt. as her hand brushed near his shoulder she felt something wet, a warm familiar feeling.
Vala's breathing got heavier as a recollection of events flew through her mind, thoughts of the last time someones blood coated her hands, Vala started feeling light headed at the memory.
remembering that this wasn't her fathers or her mothers blood, this was the blood of a guy who had helped her, a kind hearted guy who made her feel at ease. she snapped from her thoughts as she focused back on Felix. she had to help him.
what to do, what to do, she knew she needed to stop the bleeding, but with what, she didn't have anything with her. in her desperation to stop the blood, she grabbed the hem of her dress, and ripped a strip off, she bundled it up and placed it on his wound. some tears fell from her blind eyes as she desperately tried to save him.
as one hand applied pressure to the wound, her other hand stroked his his soft hair repeatedly, "please be alright" she looked up and yelled out "SOMEBODY, HELP!!!" hoping somebody, anybody would hear. she didn't dare let up on the pressure she was applying, scared he would die.
