Lucid's eyes turned toward Kiami and then toward Meredith. "You're very correct Kiami. Though it wasn't our intention to keep things from you. It's just that Taro here didn't feel comfortable with talking to everyone at the same time. We had just finished saying that we need to tell the rest of our group here. Everyone involved in this mission is highly capable of doing what is needed to be done Kiami, nobody is doubting your ability to be in the feild." His voice didn't seem as laxed as it usually was. Lucid was focused on the mission, if he knew things weren't going to be easy, he always could keep his nerves out of it. Though, what the students would see, would be a different side to him. One that is more focused and who could fight without being afraid.
"Now, in other things, you should ever feel nervous, esspecially around teachers or superiors. You need to throw your nerves away when the mission starts Kiami. It's true actually, they probably would aim for students first. So, I need one of you to go round up the rest of the students. Then when you're all here Draqx can explain the situation. He'd know more about our enemy then me."

Draqx nodded and then commented.
'Well that sounds like a plan, in the meantime while everyone is rounded up, I will be in the shop areas modding some equipment and bringing some of the suits online.'
with that Draqx walked off to get some things ready and modified.

Kiami shook her head. “This isn’t about student and teacher, this is about chain of command now, and I’m really stepping out of my bounds.” She looked at Lucid. Her expression calmed a little, “Then it’s someone you guys have seen before.” She turned around putting on a smile. “Let’s get the others Meredith and I can help you set up after they fill us in.”
She spun her spear as it rested on her shoulder. Then started walking with Meredith, she grinned at him briefly. “You and Leo make a cute couple you know.” She kept her voice soft and low. “Was wondering how long it would take you two to figure out you were meant to be a couple.” She seemed a lot happier now that she had gotten to speak to the others about their need to know. She looked away and gave out a whistle to the others waving at them to come over. She wanted to make sure she got everyones attention, especially those further away from them.

Meredith's mind was still focused on the business at hand and so he was quite surprised when Kiami mentioned his relationship with Leo. His face flushed a bright red and he did not turn to look at her as he stammered. "I... you mean... you already knew...? How? I'm sill not entirely certain we've figured out anything at all. I mean, I know we've been friends and well... you know, I never really thought he could have an interest in me of all people." Meredith thought himself all too boring for someone like Leonardo. The two most exciting things he'd ever done were flying with Leonardo and subsequently kissing him. Was it actually possible for his face to become more red? As he thought of kissing Leonardo, he raised a hand to his lips as though he could still feel the other boy's there.
"You really think we are meant to be a couple?" He whispers now, his eyes darting to where he'd last seen Leonardo. "Ah, I should not be thinking about that right now. We have important things to do. This is no time to act childish." Meredith reprimands himself aloud, willing his face to stop impersonating a tomato.

“It’s not childish to be in love,” She smiled a little. “Yes I did know. You’re one of those couples that everyone else knows and we’re waiting for you to figure it out.” Looks at him again and tilts her head. “He really cares about you, and you make sure to tell me if he gets too stupid and hurts you.” Winks, “Don’t let him distract you too much. We still have a job to do. But having someone to love can make us work harder, to take care of things and there for take care of them.”

"You're right. I just ... he is distracting. When I'm working, I don't think about it, but when he... oh. There I go again. Never mind." Where was everyone? Meredith decided it would be a lot easier to keep his mind focused while surrounded by students he didn't want to gush to about Leonardo.

Leo heard a loud whislte, none other than Kiami's herself. Leo took out his mini-computer and downloaded all the info and switched the signalling to the miniture device. He then placed the larger computer inside his bag and ventured off to the where the other students were gathering around Kiami and, to Leo's surprise, Meredith, standing with the other students. Obviously, Kiami found her piece of info she had been complaining about to Leo just minutes ago. Being on of the eldest and most experienced of the students, Leo leapped up to stand beside his best friend and his boyfriend. He smiled at Meredith and pull his hand into interlocking with his own and kiss his cheek. Leo looked onward at the other students gathered around him and awaited Kiami's message.

Meredith smiled when Leonardo joined them, though he tried to keep it subdued. He was a professional; he could balance his work with his romance. When Leonardo held his hand and kissed his cheek, Meredith blushed faintly and his smile widened. Well, there had to be two sides for there to be a balance, after all... Oh, who was he kidding? Leonardo was tap-dancing over his professionalism. He wanted to kiss him, other students watching or not. But he restrained himself. He could still act at least a little like a responsible adult should.

She looked over at Lucid after stretching and gave him a cute a brief little smile before turning her attention away. She looked at Leo and Meredith, her eyes soft and calm. “They know something. They’re waiting for everyone to be here before they tell us. But take this as a guess if you wish, normally if one knows something about an enemy the enemy is powerful enough to not be defeated in one sweep.” She shrugged a little and kept her voice low as she spoke. “Just my opinion.” The she grinned and poked Meredith with a slender finger and whispered into his ear, "Just kiss him already, I know you want to." She stepped back and looked at Leo with the same grin.

[[Tcaelliph Catalysis Rozune | :: | "Sound Amplification is the way to go. Vibrations running through the ground cause a surge in me, and this guitar on my back is my part to see."
((Blind))]]
Feeling the quick grasp of fingers on his arm, his eye balls roamed around aimlessly, eye lids quickly shutting and his arm being jerked into his back. Maybe this figure had that reflexes that were just that good, but there was no reason for that. Feeling the grasp loosen and finally release itself from his arm, he slowly looked side to side, hoping to see something past the darkness. Nothing.
Pulling the item from his back, a guitar, he twisted his foot to the side, jumped back, preferably away from the person who had anger issues, and landed with a soft 'thump'. His sneakers dug into the ground and he crouched down slightly, thrumming the last three strings of the musical instrument. Vibrations, low enough not to be heard, but to be felt, surged through the ground, and Tcaelliph's eyes followed them to two figures before him. One of them were kneeling down and the other was towering over him, but seemed to be facing Tcaelliph as well.
The vibrations left.
He couldn't see anything anymore. With a sharp inhale, he heard the split toned voice, a docile feminine side mixed with an angered, furious demonic tone sent chills down his spine. He couldn't tell whether it was against his odds to pick a fight, so he tilted the guitar downwards, holding onto the neck of the instrument.
-"Wh-What?"- He stammered, hearing the female speak of a little human. And if she meant him as the 'little human', then he guessed that the fight was inevitable.
His hollow eyes searched desperately for some kind of lighter area, where he could see things, only in an indistinctive blur.
Once more, Tcaelliph's fingers ran across the guitar, but this time, there was a sound to the thrumming. A major cord. It sounded beautiful, and if he wasn't about to be attacked unjustly, he would have most likely tried to calm down the female with a song or so.
These vibrations lasted longer than the initial one, so he had time to turn and face the female, getting himself in a stance where he would be able to attack easily, or evade an attack with ease.
This wasn't going to be easy at all.

Meredith was just about to profusely refuse to follow Kiami's suggestion, but she had already stepped back. To start stammering aloud about how he wasn't going to kiss Leonardo would be far too ridiculous and embarrassing. Instead he just tried to pretend he had not heard Kiami at all, though he shifted his feet nervously and looked down at the ground. Was it really so obvious he'd been thinking about kissing Leonardo? Perhaps everyone really had already expected the two would become a couple. And just how many of the others milling around had taken one look at him and known he's just wanted to kiss his boyfriend? Disastrous! This would not look good when his performance on the mission was evaluated.

Consensio let out a long and most seductive form of laughter ever heard by mortal ears; excluding Zenn entirely, everyone by sight knew what he was. It was then, immediatly following her thoughts that she ceased the horrid laughter, and stared at the human with an anger she had not given a single person on this earth aside from those that had murdered her the first time. There was something strange about this creature, though human, she couldn't help but feel... well, a strangeness, eminating from every fiber of his being. Consensio couldn't help but wonder how he thought he was going to be still standing after intiating a fight between himself and Concensio. Perhaps her reputation was not as renound as she had previously thought.
"I am not going to fight you. Come down, you are amongst.... friends.." Consensio smiled, and shot a glance at Zenn, wondering if he was as confused as she was, perhaps not about what was going on, but why he found it necessary to start a battle without first knowing whom he was dealing with. "I don't mean to brag, but I could almost assure you, you would be dead before you had the chance to leap from your stance... But I like you..." Consensio returned to her stack of corpses and day dreamed briefly about the way she felt, taking lives. It was so beautiful to behold. Their eyes staring up at her, so accusing, so lifeless, so... dead.
"You not a single one of these pathetic cess pools had the gull to stand up to me? Even as I was taking the lives of their loved ones, they panicked, ran around as I cut them down one by one. But you..." Consensio turned to the human boy. "You could have been killed and yet, you are still standing here... Me and my cohort could snap you like a twig. Tell me boy. What is your measure?"

Leo looked nervously at Kiami when she leaned over to whisper something unbennounced to him and Meredith's shocked and angery face made him feel a bit uneasy. But, what really made him look at her as if she grew a few more eyeballs, was the fact that Kiami beamed the most devilish grin at him. Leo shifted uneasily. "Uh...is there something going on here that I'm not aware of?" He asked, nervoulsy confused. Leo reached his pocket beeped before he could recieve an answer and pulled out his mini-computer. He began pressing the button on the side of his glasses, searching for the detection, and found it at the northern side. He observed the scene through his glasses. Nothing registered untill he saw a leaf fall and a squirrel slowly move acrossed the grass. Leo sighed in relief. "Hmm. A squirrel set off the perimeter alarms." Leo said to himself.

Meredith stammered incoherently for a moment when Leonardo asked if there was anything going on, but he was saved by the beep of the mini computer. He patiently waited as Leonardo watched the display through his glasses. He was a bit nervous; he certainly hoped not to run into trouble quite so soon! Though, if he were to completely honest, he would like to have no trouble at all. When Leonardo announced that it was only a squirrel? Meredith stared at him, then burst into giggles, covering his mouth with one hand. A squirrel! He'd gotten wound up over nothing after all.

Draqx gave a sigh and rubbed his eyes from looking at so many lines of code that needed changing, even though he was not the best in abilities for combat, he had seen enough of it that he did not want to put the students in any of the situations that tested him in the past.
Draqx closed his eyes for a second and then went back to the code stream, they would soon be rounded up and it looked like thier testing would soon be approching if what he read in the archive was true. he worked and a thought came to the fore front of his mind, and it send chills up his spine...
...if hell hath no fury like a woman scorned... how much so would that fury be if one was from hell itself?...
