Welcome to Gaia! ::

(ooc: ok guys, I guess that I need to state again that there are rules in playing in this thread. Do not control other characters. That means player characters and NPC. Especially do not control Buki, as she is indeed a character and the main one that I play in this thread. Its rude to play other people's characters. Even as GM I try not to do it either because I think its still rude.

This is a story line, I'm playing this out in certian ways and I have plans for whats to happen. Yes, I am flexable with it because you guys always do something to surprise me and so the story changes as we go. But you are not uber characters, you are academy students, so you are not going to be able to run circles around anything that I throw out there and beat it in a single strike. This is meant to be mature RP and meant to excerise that skill, to be descriptive, and to make it where everyone can have fun. This is not meant to be a hack and slash little game.

Read the other posts! I cannot stress this enough. You are not going to be able to be a valuable member if you never read other people's posts and respond to what they do and act accordingly. Be polite! I don't care if you use rough words now and then. But seriously folks, try not to cuss, it really does take away from your writing, it does not make it better. Plus, there are some younger people who RP in here, and I would rather make this a clean place that they can come to not a dirty one. Thanks)

~*~With Rei and Kaida~*~

::both students, as they arrived, were directed the opposite way of the classroom, to a min hall of sorts. There were some other students there, apparently from other teachers, and the room was nearly full. The ceremony had not started yet, but it seemed that it was going too. Finding seats together would be easy enough, if they decided to do so::

~*~In the classroom~*~

::Buki nodded at the two who had just entered the room::

Edge...Yamato...

::she stood, stretching for a moment, looking on the verge of exhaustion::

My name is Buki. You will join the other group that is already in session. Like them, I will warn you that my training exercises are not typical ones that you will find throughout the rest of the school. It is not easy, but it will expand your mind and your abilities. You will have to join the rest of them, however your approach will not be as easy, seeing as things have already gotten underway.

::Buki-sensei moved to the door that was behind her desk, a door that should easily have lead to another room in the academy, but when opened, reveal a meadow that leadup to a hill. From on top of the hill, smoke from what would appear to be cooking fires of an army was drifting lazily into the sky::

Beyond the mountain, you will find your comrades

~*~In the ruins~*~

::guards were posted at regular intervals at both camps. Any clones that approached were greeted by the guards, who seemed surprised to see anyone other than themselves there::

Who goes? ::indeed the classical response from both groups. The wolf rider that asked was a female about 5'7, her voice carried what almost seemed like a Russina accent. The horsemen however was roughly 6'5 and his voice was prestine English as far as they could tell::

::the groups that had entered the city, still carrying the white flags that whipped in the wind, easily found the middle of the city, approaching what appeared to be a central platform, the charred remains of what looked like a council building at one end::

(ooc: wow...that was a long post)

Realizing that the two armies are not going to attack, and since he saw them headed to the council building, he put his spine back in place and shouted " Hey Kinoru, Shinobu, and Areno, want to come with? I'm oing to that council-like thingy." He said, pointing to the building and then setting off in a walk towards it.

[[ Um. -dies at the posts- ]]

arrow Ruins

Areno called down to the other Kaguya. "All of you wait, I have clones gathering information first, then we'll decide on what to do. Never rush blindly into a potentially dangerous situation."

arrow Ruins: Soldier camps

Bunshin 1 (Wolves): "I have come here to speak with you or your people. I am curious as to what is occuring here."

Bunshin 2 (Drums): "Harken, what deed brings you and this impressive force hither?"

Areno was apparently trying to accomodate their modal speech.

where are you* walks around trying to find the sensei

arrow Past the door at the Acadamy

Noticing the door behind them now closed off he looks over to his team mate for this trek to the rest of the class. "It seems we will have to go as just the two of us for now. We should be careful for now."

He quickly began to move off in the direction indicated by Miss Buki. "By the way my name is Grey Edge nice to meet you."

arrow Ruins, Camps

Clone 1(Wolves): "Consider me a force of nature." The wind clone lifted its open hand and a breeze began to blow, slowly increasing in strength until he made a fist of his hand and dropped it again, where the wind instantly died off. "I am not here to harm you or the other tribe, but I am curious."

Clone 2(Soldiers): (Ditto)

arrow Areno continued waiting with his eyes closed...

"Never let your gaurd down Oni, we don't know exactly why there here" Kinoru whistls, and all his clones appear by his side "So what did you find out".

arrow Past the door at the Acadamy

Yamato looked to see that the door was closed then he introduced himself as Edge introduced himself "hello Edge im Yamato nice to meet you as well".Then he when't to direction that the teacher had told him with his team mate Edge.
