Ever smiled warmly at her best friend. It was so good to see her. She couldn't wait to have breakfast with her and actually go to the Room with her.
"Yeah, we do have a lot to talk about. We can talk some over breakfast, but we can talk after we visit the Room, too. I need to research the Relic some more, but I also plan on helping you look for your parents. I need to fill you in on something that's coming and why I need to search for the Relic instead of just helping you look for your parents. But like I said, we can talk about that at breakfast."
Raven bounced on Ever's shoulder and actually waved at Akira in greeting, but obviously no one would be able to see her waving since her fairy body was so small.
"Good morning Akira!"
Ever blushed slightly as Akira asked if she could heal the marks on her face. If she saw those, then she would probably see the other marks along her neck and collar bone courtesy of Friday night with Ares. She still needed to tell Akira about that, but she needed to tell her about the war first, obviously. Her hair was covering the marks right now.
"Nah, that's ok. Thanks, though. I'm hoping Headmistress Krause will see them and I can tell her that Miss DiTe did it. Maybe she'll get kicked out."
She winked at Akira in humor, though she honestly wasn't planning on doing what she had just suggested. It was an interesting thought, though...

Ari settled back into her chair her eyes dancing, but whether it was with tears or just the lighting it was impossible to tell. So her last ditch attempt failed. Not like she expected it to work, but it was better to try than not try at all. She pushed her bowl away, and waited for them to finish eating.

He snarled when he detected that she had been lying. Nikolaus had actually thought for a slight second she'd felt that way, but once he'd spoken he felt pain rise up in him again and he knew she'd lied. All pity he had for her was gone, and now he was filled with his hatred for mortals he always carried. They took from him his mother, and for that they would pay. The rest of the meal was silent, going through course after course until it was finished. He had thrown many of his dishes to the fire as offerings Odin. Nikolaus could sense the Father God was pleased so far.

"Sounds like a plan! Breakfast is sounding mighty good right about now! And ok, we're looking for the relic again, got'ch- wait what? I thought you we're totally against...Ok right, tell me later!" Akira agreed, before giggling softly and raising an eyebrow in question.
"Kicked out huh? My my, aren't you evviilll this morning!" the girl teased, grabbing her small teddy bear backpack, not one for carrying purses around. Wearing a simple no sleeved black shirt and navy blue jeans, she threw the backpack onto her back and smiled warmly at the fairy, but then frowned slightly.
"Morning, Raven! I have a tiny feeling that your waving, i can't see it, but the air is moving ever so slightly where you are so...Ya, hope i'm right!"
Kilala yawned loudly and opened her eyes halfway, before saying sleepily and mentally of course, "Good morning you three...I'll catch up in the room later on, i didn't get much sleep last night and i'm not very hungry anyways...Oh, Akira, i see your getting more in-tune with your element if you can noticed such a small movement...Very nice!" leaving no time for anybody to answer, the Demonic feline went back to sleep.
Akira rubbed the back of her head and laughed nervously.
"Huh, guess i am...Oh, also, Ever...When we get into the room...I have something really important to tell you, it's something i've kept secret for a long time now...And i figure, with what happened last night to me, that it's about time i let you know."
It was going to be hard, to voice her nightmare...But it had to be done. She'd been dying to tell Evermore for so long now...
She stepped outside her room and waited for the Fury to as well, so she could lock up and they could head out to get some food!!

Ari felt the anger in him, and shrunk slightly. She hadn’t been completely lying… more like exaggerating the truth. She stood, suddenly feeling nauseous. Maybe it was all finally sinking in. ”Excuse me,” she said politely, and a few demons nearer to her nodded, shooting her confused glances. She moved to the edge of the clearing, standing in the shadow of a giant tree, facing away from the table with her arms crossed.

{{Awww. No one's going to answer my question?}}
Raven twirled up in the air before landing back down on Ever's shoulder again. "That is right, I was! Very impressive, Akira! Is one of your abilities related to nature and animals? Although, I'm most certainly not an animal."
She giggled softly.
Ever looked at her friend in slight concern. Well, a lot of concern, actually, but she tried not to let that show. She would fill Akira in on all that had happened at breakfast, and then she would listen to what Akira had to say in the Room. She would respect her friend's wishes and not force her to tell her what was going on sooner, even though Ever really wanted to know so that she could help her friend, if it was at all possible.
Once they were in the cafeteria, Ever went over to get some food. She got cereal and a bagel and then sat down at one of the elegant tables to wait for Akira. She had gotten a small bowl of fruit for Raven, and Raven was now perched on the side of the bowl. It was actually quite fascinating to watch Raven eat. You couldn't see her body, of course, but a person could see small marks appear in the food after awhile from where Raven was eating it.
Ever also tried to keep her focus on the food in front of her and not look at the coffee stand. Musica might be there, and she did not need to see him after last night, though she did hope he was feeling much better.

(Sorry! I missed it. Ok, so she was partially lying to him. Since they share a connection, she can’t help but feel sympathetic towards him, and knows he feels pity on her. She tried to exploit that, and she failed. FAIL ARI FAIL.)

Akira ordered some bacon and scrambled eggs, well a lot of bacon actually, and a tall glass of orange juice. Carrying her tray, she placed it on the table and sat down next to Evermore, smiling at the sight of tiny bite-marks appearing in the food Raven was chowing down.
"Oh, to answer your question, Ray, not my Demonic powers. Kilala was talking about my element, wind element actually. I'm training really hard to master it, so i'm starting to notice little stuff, but i'm glad your impressed!!"
Akira picked up a couple of bacon pieces and bit into them happily, loving the meaty taste, and realizing just how hungry she really was.
Continuing to eat her delicious food, she replied between bites, "Ok, so fill me in on this relic hunting...First off, that's what's at the bottom of the lake??"

{{Thanks Rrine! biggrin }}
Ever's eyes widened as she saw Akira sit down with a lot of bacon. She turned in her chair and looked back at the food line.
"You got bacon?! Where?! I didn't see it!"
She had been looking at her friend proudly before she sat down. She was so happy and proud of her friend. She must be working hard on her powers!
But now that bacon completely had her focus. She wanted some! She loved bacon!
Meanwhile, Raven had paused in her eating and was bouncing up and down on the rip of the bowl. "That is amazing, Akira! Ever told me about your powers over the wind, but I had no idea that you were getting so powerful! You and Ever should train together in the future. She needs to train as well..."
Raven looked at Ever, but she could see that the Fury was completely focused on food at the moment, more specifically, bacon.

Akira giggled and waved a hand in front of Evermore's face, and then pointed towards the cook near another counter, one that the Fury hadn't gone too.
"That's cuz it's not out. You have to ask her to cook it for you! She'll ask you exactly how you want your bacon and/or eggs and she'll cook them in minutes! Its pretty cool and definitely yummy!" she explained, tackling her scrambled eggs now, but still had some juicy bacon left.
Once eagerly Evermore bolted for the bacon in her baconny trance, Akira grinned at Raven and nodded, before admitting to the light fairy, "Oh, i'm not that powerful yet, but i'm working hard everyday to be and ya! I'm hoping that me and Ever will become an unstoppable team, actually! Maybe one day, and i'm just wishing here, we'll to be strong enough to beat Gods and Goddess...Some need to be seriously put in their place!!" taking a couple of bites of bacon, she then continued with hopes of reassuring Raven, "Don't worry though, i'll make sure Ever trains from now on! Also, i'm hoping Kilala and you will join us! All four of us really will be unstoppable!"

Aphrodite, (as Aphira), sat in her office shuffling through paperwork. There were a lot of reports she had to go over, and she had had a stressful morning. She had just finished counseling a girl with an eating disorder, hadn't gotten breakfast, Nessa was still in a coma, and to round it off, Ari hadn't shown back up at school. Her aura was nowhere to be found, and it made her and Donny nervous. She had contacted the local authorities, and informed Ari's mother. That had been a difficult phone call on more than one level of suck.
Aphrodite bit her lip, and swiveled in her chair to look out the window over the grounds. She was worried, and had a sinking feeling Ari's disappearance had something to do with that flash of light the night before. Why worry yet, though? Donny was out looking now, and so were the police. They'd get her... soon. Swiveling back to face her desk the woman played with a Call Slip. Should she tell Ari's friends? They would most likely want to go looking for her if she told them, and that wouldn't do. What if they got lost as well? What if it turned out that Ari had just gotten lost or something? She bit her lip as she looked down at the sheet of paper.

Raven giggled and bounced on the edge of her bowl. "I would appreciate the help, Akira, on getting Ever to train every once in awhile! However, I'm afraid that no matter how much you train, you will never be able to defeat a god by yourselves. You need relics to do that and... uh... Ever will explain more about that when she gets back."
She was so glad that Akira was about to be filled in on what was at the bottom of the lake so that Raven didn't have to try and hide it from her anymore. Obviously she knew the Bai Ching Relic was down in the lake because that's what she and her people guarded. That was why they disliked gods so much, because they had always tried to obtain the relic any way they could. Luckily, the light fairies and spirits had always managed to stop them.
A few moments later, Ever came back with a bright smile on her face and a plate of sizzling bacon. She plopped one down across the bowl for Raven, who began to bounce again in excitement as she waited for it to cool down. Ever sat down at her chair and looked at her bacon in glee. She couldn't wait for it to cool down enough so that she could eat it.
While she waited for it to cool down, she decided to fill Akira in on what exactly was down at the bottom of the lake, or at least what Ares had told her about it. She also decided that she should tell her about the war.
"Akira, I have something to tell you about the Relic and its location..."
When she was done, which had only taken about 10 minutes, she said, "And that's why we need to find out more about this Relic. We need it on our side for the war. Well, I do anyway, or I could die. If the enemy gets their hands on the Relic, they will kill me, I am sure, and many other gods."
She reached forward, tested the bacon, and then popped one into her mouth happily when she realized it was cool enough. Raven had already begun to much on her piece.

Nikolaus watched her leave with his face fuming. Immediately as she left he told the demons to prepare the area where he would commit this final act to seal his power. Then he would take his army and attack the school while they where still unaware. He looked deep into the fire and saw the eyes of his grandfather looking into his own blue. The Father God was curious to see what his grandson planned to offer him, in exchange for the ultimate prize. The Gods could not use this prize, but neither could mortals. It was only for someone in between, someone like Nikolaus. With it, his reign would begin. Olympus wouldn't know what hit them.

Musica walked into the school after waking up on the school grounds from last night. It had finally come, he would have to tell who he could and get them away from the school. Most importantly he'd have to protect Sammy. Upon entering the school with his head wrapped, still pounding as well, he came to find Luli working the stand alone today. She seemed distant, most likely angry with him for some reason. As he was about to go over to her he saw the young dog hanyou sitting in the cafeteria, and that meant Evermore was not far off. Good, this would be a starting place. He walked over to the table and looked down at Akira with his intense icy blue stare. "I need to talk with you. Evermore too. It's vital to everyone's safety that you two listen." His hand was hurting extremely bad, and he was near falling over from the pain. He stood tall though, unmoving as he looked down at her waiting for an answer.

Ari looked around at the scurrying demons. They were preparing the clearing for… oh gods! That was just sick. It all made sense now. The food in the fire, the elaborate feast, the gathering… Ari was going to be sacrificed. Gods of Olympus! Ari wiggled her fingers, and a little pulsating current of sound appeared in a ball. She whispered furiously into his, the pulsations distorting her words. The ball gave a deep pulsation, and then dissipated, rushing away from her. Ari hoped it would reach the school in time… this wasn’t good. She turned around and walked up next to Nikolaus, her face expressionless. ”Sacrifice? I expected something more spectacular from you,” she said, watching the demons with empty eyes.
