Welcome to Gaia! ::

All the clones out on the front lawn suddenly stopped in their tracks and turned their heads all at once to see the new arrival. "oh you must be new, right this way ma'am" the foremost clone said. Suddenly the clones all parted and swept their arms to the side, motioning for her to go right on ahead. "yeah we're in the middle of this trust building exercise and...well its all pretty silly, I'm sure your gonna love it here" the masked man said, taking the girl's hand and gently leading her down the isle of clones. When they got inside the clones there too stopped what they were doing and courteously made way for Cherie and the clone that was guideing her through the school. In no time at all they had reached the main office. "allright you just talk the the lady there at the desk and she'll get you your room assignment as well as your schedule" the masked man told her, pointing to Ms. Ivy and patting Cherie on the head.



Ms. Ivy, now dressed up as some sort of monk, gave Cherie a nervous smile as she came into the room. "hello dear, its seems you've come to us at a....peculiar moment" she said, chuckling softly. There weren't any clones in the office except for the one that had lead Cherie inside, mostly because they new Ms. Ivy's heart couldn't take that kind of excitement. "now can I help you Ms. Cherie?" she asked, allready knowing the girl's name.

Ms. Ivy nodded and reached under the desk and came back up with a small key and a slip of paper. "this deary is you school schedule. It lists all the times for you classes and what not. And here is your dorm key, room 5A. I hope you enjoy your stay here" she said, doing her best to keep her composure in this situation.




When she had received her key the masked man stepped forward again and petted her head. "see not so hard" he told her gently, taking off his helmet to reveal his face to her, causing Ms. Ivy to gasp as she suddenly recognized his face. However before she could comment the man turned away, Ms. Ivy suddenly forgetting his face again, and he held out his hand to Cherie. "shall I lead you to your room then? trust me I know this place like the back of my hand" he said kindly. Unbeknownst to Cherie he wasn't a clone at all, he was in fact the original Ashura that all the students were fighting hard to search for.

The man smiled as she reluctantly took his hand. With a kind hearted grin he lead her out of the office back into the hall, were the clones once again made a path for them to walk, their personal space almost a separate world from what was going on in the rest of the school. When her tone implied she wanted to know his name the man just chuckled. "you can call me MM for now. Sorry for being so secretive, you'll just have to trust me with that for now" he told her, once again petting her and giving her a small scratch between the ears. There was something about cute neko girls that made it impossible to resist petting them. "so Cherie, what made you decide to come here?" he asked, the idea of small talk in this situation kind of jarring, but MM considered himself a jarring individual by profession.

Aeon Horace, History/Math/Physics teacher

"I'll explain later how I was able to transform you back, right now we need to start protecting the school" Aeon answered he then watched as Zali began shooting down the clones
"Very impressive Zali" Aeon complimented
"Now it's my turn it seems" He stated looking at the clones suddenly hour hand shaped daggers began to float around Aeon they started as 12 but began to multiple to 24 then 48 and so on until it reached 168
"A week of suffering" Aeon stated as the daggers began to fly off striking down clone after clone

Akira nodded to Kiyomi as she disappeared and followed behind Penelope who had run off ahead of him. "hey don't just go running off like that without my permission!" he called out. Honestly it was odd that this little girl of all people not only got him to talk the most, but pulled out the most emotion from him. However that was neither here nor there, and he had bigger issues to worry about. When he caught up to her there was a wall of clones between them, making Akira curse under his breath. "dammit...and we're supposed to be saving others right now" he muttered to himself as he drew his cutlass once again. "gonkai" he whispered spinning and driving the pummel of his sword into a clone's back, sending him flying forward bowling over the other clones infront of him, making a small path over to Penelope. The next second Akira was standing back to back with Penelope. "don't run off like that again. Its not safe" he told her, feeling responsible for her safety. Suddenly the sound of a few girls screaming could be heard down the hall. Akira looked up to see a group of 3 girls being chased up the stairs by a group of clones. "come on, we need to make a path over to them" he told her, brandishing his sword once more.

Basili Tenmaru

Basili blinked a few times at her hand, not sure what to say. "but...I don't know how to use magic...." she trailed off, suddenly shaking the fire off of her hand. "how did I?..." she stammered, still slightly tranced when the clones reemerged and snapped her back to reality. She looked around nervously and suddenly grabbed onto Zada. "I have an idea" she said as she opened her mouth and extended her tongue out, grabbing onto the the cover for the air ducts. She ripped the grate off and then pulled them up to it. "cwome own, cwall win" she mumbled, helping Zada squeeze into the air duct.

Camory Cheifer

Hazard Squad

"they say an ounce of honey is worth a cup of vinegar...."

Camory blushed when she denied seeing anything. "for some reason I get the feeling your lying" he said all doughy eyed. He allowed himself to be pulled up to his feet, and carefully smoothed down his skirt before continuing. "your right. If that announcement was right then he probably has clones everywhere, and I bet the teachers are close to finding the real one anyways" he said with a determined nod. If anything Camory was allways willing to help someone in need. He began running, holding onto Olivia's hand the whole time. Suddenly an idea came to his head that made him blush. "we must look like a really weird couple right now huh?" he asked, noticing both his and Olivia's transformations so to speak. When they arrived at the gym Camory gasped to see all the clones, and the students getting over run by them. Suddenly he had a kendo stick thrusted into his hands and he looked back at Olivia and nodded. "summary of my life" he said with a smirk as he wielded the kendo stick. He ran beside Olivia and began fighting off the clones along side her. Comically enough the clones did actually disperse even from the relatively harmless smacks from the fake bamboo sword. Though they fought side by side the two were quickly separated. A clone stepping out to fight Olivia one on one. He raised his hand into the air and the clones around him broke down into energy and flowed into him, increasing his power.

"ah yes young Schatten. a model student you are. Come, indulge me and see what such a high caliber student can really do" The man said as he raised his hand and the ground underneath her suddenly shifted upwards, knocking her off balance as he suddenly went in with a quick jab.

Another clone appeared infront of Camory as well, wielding a rapier. "and you Chiefer, the human with self esteem issues. Even though you have so much potential" he said moving in and thrusting only for Camory to parry it away. The two began exchanging blows, neither one able to get a hit on the other, though it was clear the exchange was more exhausting for Camory than for the masked figure. "you weak, but skilled, dedicated when you start something, but lack motivation to start them. You dwell on your weaknesses and ignore your strengths. That is why you cannot succeeded, well that and..." he said aiming his palm at the ground and releasing a blast of wind that blew Camory's skirt up. Instinctively Camory blushed and pushed his hands down over his skirt to cover himself, and in the processes allowed the masked figure to rest the tip of his rapier at his neck. "your to easily distracted. A man is coming at you with a tool used to kill, whether or not someone can see your under wear should be your last concern right now" he said pulling his rapier away, not leaving a single mark on him. "allright again, this time come at me" he said.

"....wait this recipe's in metric...Olivia! Heeeeeeeeelp!"

Zali' Usvine "professor Birch"

Herbology teacher

Zali chuckled a bit and waved off Aeon's compliment. "oh its nothing, any Rogin could do it" he said modestly. He watched as the man began conjuring up daggers and took a wise step back, not wanting to be in the increasingly large blast radius. When Aeon called out his attack and shot down the clones still lingering in the hallway Zali' nodded in understanding. "oh I get it. 168 hours in a week, a 168 daggers...well roughly its not like I counted them all or anything....gosh I need a hobby" he muttered stepping forth and looking around the hall. "well unless this guy magically vanishes when he dies just like his clones I'm gonna go ahead and say he's probably not here. Come on we got more searching to do" he said, shooting out his vines and literally sling shotting himself down the hallway.







the man smiled as he noticed her growing curiosity. "I'd say something about fatality rates in curious felines, but thats a bit over played. So how about this? If you make sure to keep up good grades and don't end up slacking off in your studies then I'll tell you whatever you want to know, not just about me but about anything" he offered, smiling at her warmly. For anyone who had just watched him terrorize the student body for the past few hours it was odd seeing him act so fatherly towards someone. He let out another good humored chuckle as the girl began zoning out from his petting and scratching. She was just so adorable it wasn't even fair. He could tell she was on the verge of purring when he stopped. After all he didn't want to turn her into a full on lap cat, not yet atleast. When she explained her story he sighed and nodded. "ah a tale told far too often. Once a mewling kitten now turned a stay cat. But don't worry, your safe here" he assured her. Not five seconds after assuring her she was safe the ninja woman appeared behind them and threatened them with her weapon. "you know you have by far the worst sense of timing" he said over his shoulder, keeping his back to her so she couldn't see his face and remember his identity. Once again he petted the girl's head reassuringly. "don't worry, everything's fine" he told her as he slid his mask back on. Suddenly hespun around behind the neko and wrapped his arm around Cherie's neck. "play along allright? its part of the game" he whispered to Cherie, keeping his grip very loose so the girl was never actually in any pain or danger, while still making it look real. "allright copper, you better back up or the girl gets it" he shouted dramatically, starting to back up using Cherie as a human shield. Suddenly the mass of clones that were parting ways for the masked figure and Cheria to walk suddenly swarmed Kiyomi, covering their escape. "come on, your rooms this way" he whispered, releasing his fake choke hold and offering his hand again as he took off down the hall.

Zada Faustine - Student Council Member

"Right" Zada replied as she crawled in the vent, She waited to see if Basili could climb up as well and offered her a hand if she needed it.
As they made it in the vent and began to get away Zada spoke to Basili
"You know I thought you were a stuck up princess only interested in sex, but it seems you're more capable then I thought" Zada admitted encouraging Basili and also admitting she made a mistake in judging character.
