Welcome to Gaia! ::

Aya walked slowly off the boat, keeping her face forward. She noticed other students running around and playing with their 'gifts' as if the island meant the priviledge to use their powers to the highest extent. Which, she guessed it might be, but she certainly wasn't going to go around killing the beautiful scenery here. Or worse, the students. She walked along the grass quietly, heading toward the building she was told to go to.
"Building B." she said softly as she walked inside. Hesitantly, she let one hand go of her suitcase and placed it on the wall. Nothing. She stared, puzzled. She tried harder. Nothing. Instead, she began to feel a little weak herself. She took her hand away. She suddenly felt a surge of annoyance. This was something she couldn't 'kill'.
Suddenly realizing her own process of thought, she shook her head and began walking towards the room that would supposedly have her name tacked on the door. She should be happy she couldn't destroy something. But even so, she felt slightly trapped.
Finally getting to her room, she set down her suitcase on the bed farthest from the door and began to unpack. Her room seemed nice enough. It had a desk to do schoolwork, a closet to store clothes and shoes, and a bed to sleep on. It even had a small window.
"This doesn't seem so bad," she tried to convince herself.

Stepping foot ouside, she sheilded her eyes from the sun. It was certainly hot here, but she wouldn't complain. She'd been exposed to hotter temperatures. Or rather, experiments.
She began walking towards the small woods, completely passing the cafeteria crowded with other people. It wasn't because she was avoiding anyone. She just wasn't hungry and there was a nagging emotion telling her to go 'try' it out there. She passed a boy reading, but didn't choose to bother him.

Harmony opened the dorm to the room that was now supposed to be her's. She stood in the doorway for a moment, scanning the room. The color was pretty dull to her but she still felt like it was a nice room. It had what she needed and that was fine with her. Walking over to one of the beds, she gently placed all of her things on top of it. Not bothering to unpack anything, she began to walk around the small room. Harmony stopped at the other bed and sighed. She had never shared a room before, having such a small family. The short girl continued to walk around the room for a while longer before heading to the door. Though, before she opened the door she lifted her hands to her head and fixed one of the blue ribbons that matched the color of her eyes. It was tied around a little bunch of her dirty blonde hair, likewise with the same looking ribbon tied on the other side of her head. With the accessory tightened, she left the room.

Exiting the dorm building, Harmony took in a deep breath of the island air. She found the air to be pretty musty, but didn't care too much. Weather wasn't one of topics she cared for. Her plain light purple sweatshirt and dark jean short were good enough for her for the day, and that is what really only mattered to her. Stuffing her hands into her sweatshirt pocket, she began to walk. Not having explored the island yet, she really didn't know where she was going but didn't care. Her black sandals noisily flopped against the grassy ground repeatedly as she walked. It was a noise that Harmony had grown used to hearing seeing as she preferred to wear sandals most of the time.

Harmony kept on walking around aimlessly for a while, quietly watching all the people that passed her by. She noticed that some of the kids really showed their powers by their appearance while others looked just like normal people. Remembering her own mutatious powers, the girl reached into her short's pocket and pulled out a wrapped piece of gum. Coming to a halt, she unwrapped the gum and stuffed it into her mouth. As she began to chew it, she placed the wrapper back into her pocket. After another minute or so, Harmony finally came to the Cafeteria. Not feeling hungry, she kept walking.

She couldn't help the grin that spread across her face as her eyes lit up that he was making a conversation with her. She nodded as his assumption about the fire and grasped his hand using it to help her stand up. "Y-yeah. I have a tendency to....combust when I get really nervous or...really anything in excess!" Now that she was standing she retracted her hand and he could see they had stopped shaking but would still occasionally twitch.

She noted that his eyes were moving, studying her and she shifted her hands starting to shake again. She herself was distracted by examining him so she didn't really hear when he asked her if she was okay. He looked so normal and shifted uncomfortably realizing how abnormal she must appear. She snapped back to attention and realized what he had asked. "oh, Oh! Yeah, I'm okay, s'fine really. I'm a bit of a clutz as you can see since I...tripped....over you. But, yeah, I'm fine." she paused and bit her lip wondering what she should do next. Name "Oh yeah!" She thrust her hand out to shake his, "I'm Arkell, it'snicetomeeyou!"

Aya blinked at all of the plants and trees curiously. Could she kill these? Or were they immune to her destructive ways as well. She tried to block out the thought that she would be angry if they were. She slowly reached down and picked a flower. Concentrating, she grasped it firmly. It began to wilt and grow brown, then turned to a dry black and fell to the ground as bits and pieces. Despite her efforts, she smiled.
She continued to walk along the path, occasionally brushing her hand against a tree, causing tiny spots of rot. Because there weren't any people, she wouldn't have to be extra careful holding back her mind. She'd had a few accidents before, when she'd unintentionably caused someone to grow extremely weak. She hadn't meant to start sucking the life out of them. Most of the time, she could barely tell she was doing it. They just seemed to grow tired. But then, they had trouble breathing or couldn't stand and that's when it became a problem. At least they got better, though it took a few hours. She hadn't put any of the Accidents in critical condition.
Aya finally came to a stop and took a seat under a random tree.She blinked her eyes sleepily. She hadn't gotten any sleep on the boat. She looked up at the sky.
"This doesn't seem so bad," she repeated, though she meant it a little more this time. Against her wished, she slumped over on the grass. The grass wilted somewhat as it touched her skin. As soon as her head had landed onto the ground, she immediately fell asleep.

Logan had paused in his travels to the cafeteria to examine a few groups of people. Not being one to socialize extensively, he was a watcher of social groups. He happened to catch sight of someone tripping over another, or more like bumping into them and then sort of falling over. A blond guy and a blond girl. Consumed in that for a few moments, his attention went downwards, where a pack of geckos looked back up at him.

Just as he'd been about to kneel over and observe them more closely, remotely deterred from getting food at the crowd he could see around the cafeteria, someone called in his direction. Looking around momentarily, he was amused to find that some other form of couple had fallen over each other. It was an odd day, for sure. Of course, and the asking for assistance did seem quite aimed at him.

Standing up straight, he wondered what help he could be as he slowly trailed over, examining the scene of the accident a little more throughly. "What happened?" he asked softly, British accent ringing through despite the fact that he hadn't been home in at least a month. "Should I go get a nurse, or something?" He didn't seem very inclined to physically help, but he knelt near, anyways. "I'm Logan Ernst, by the way."

Aki headed to the trees, not thinking someone else would be sitting against one and reading. She, like just about everyone else in the school, promptly tripped over his leg, falling to the ground. "Sorry, you okay?" she asked, moving to where she was sitting and not in a graceless heap.

"Fine. It just sounded like I hit a lot harder." Aki replied with a faint smile. "What's your power? Or mutation or whatever you wanna call it?" she asked, notcing his eyes changing color.
