 ((Guess who's back...back again....scary Jareth is back baby! xd )) The image of the Winter Queen glued Jareth to the spot, his body fixed so rigidly that even his breathing seemed to have stopped. "Well?..." said the Queen, her perfect, pale lips making the word look beautiful even though her voice sounded terrible and frosty. There was almost no colour to the Queen, except for her crown. Made of ice, it's various spires were coloured like the sea and storm clouds, ranging from sea greens and blues to dark, angry purples. As Jareth remained silent she continued in a deadly whisper, "I did not send you away so you could entertain yourself with girls. You have a purpose." finding himself able to speak Jareth replied, his tone submissive and raspy,
"With all due respect I did not ask for this, my Lady," at this the Winter Queen smirked, the gesture anything but friendly. "Indeed. I don't recall ever having to use your name against you before," as she spoke she reached out towards him, the hand that broke through the ice full size despite that the fragment fitted in Jareth's hand. Gripping his chin she lifted his head upwards, the skin where her fingers pressed quickly turning blue from the force of her grip. "You will stop this foolishness and focus on your duties. If you must be around these distractions I suggest you gain something useful from them," she hissed before suddenly disappearing, asif she'd never been there. Jareth was left panting heavily, staring at his own, pale reflection in the ice shard. With a roar of rage he stood and smashed the ice against the wall, his rage getting the better of him. Freeing his sword he set off down the stairs at a fast pace. He needed to vent, and he was fairly certain there were some training grounds nearby. If that failed he could always go for another student...

(( *gasp* Yaaaay!!!! ^_^ Hmmm...who to send...))  Tsuki was sitting once more on a bench at the front courtyard of the school, noticing Vira in the tree's, but she left the girl be. She was enjoying herself for once. Her ears perked up as she seemed to hear something very few would hear. She heard Vira stir behind her, the winds carrying the sound for her. Hmm... Now that didn't sound good... Vadasz flew overheard with a screech which she nodded to, rising from her spot. "Stay here Vira." She spoke without looking at her, for she knew she'd probably want to go look first. Maybe she knew whose presence had caused Vadasz to react? No matter.
She walked to the doorway of the dorm building right as Jareth hit the last stair. She gave him a seemingly soft smile, though a gleam flittered across her eyes. "Come, spar with me." She then turned to leave, needing to head back to the teachers building anyways. She should probably be there in case students wanted to train. Her phoenix friend flew overhead and landed on her shoulder, kimono ruffling in the small breeze that kicked up. She remembered overhearing one of the teachers speaking of a fey who would be coming to their school, assuming this must be who they spoke of. At this point, she just hoped he would follow her for she would rather he not start attacking her students and his classmates.

((Oooh goodie!)) Jareth stared at the womans retreating back for a moment, a look of pure disgust on his face as if she was something unpleasant he'd trodden on. He followed her outside but stopped soon after that, his horse Calcifer coming to stand at his side.
"Pray tell me, what makes you think your a match for me?" he asked, his head tilting to the side at almost 90 degrees. The simple action seemed to scream inhumanity.
"What is it that makes you think you would be worthy of my time?" he hissed again, as he spoke his breath rose in front of him, as if his personal space was as cold as the tundra despite the warmth of the courtyard itself.

Tsuki paused when he stopped, Vadasz's feathers ruffling as he was getting agitated. She stroked his feathers softly as she turned to look at the fey. Well wasn't he pretentious? Ah that was normal for their kind though. She remained unperturbed by his actions that demonstrated his abilities and race. She gave him a sweet smile as she walked up to him, herself standing almost as tall as most of the boys there. "Why? Because I'm one of your teachers. And quite frankly, I'd rather you not attack my students. So! Shall we?" Her voice was calm, gesturing for him to follow as she headed to the training area's.
Vadasz turned his head to look at the boy, pausing at a touch from his master and friend. The oddly color phoenix relaxed and flew up into the air, content to watch from the air.

His sneer remained in place as he dashed forward suddenly, stopping in front of her and blocking her path.
"No," he snapped, clearly growing agrivated.
"Just because you are a teacher does not mean you are a match, nor does it make you worthy. All it gives you is authority. You have the authority to set a consequence for me if I were to attack a student, but could you yourself physically stop me? That is the question, you stupid woman. Why do none of you people Listen?" as he grew more passionate he leaned forward towards her, although her own height made the motion less impressive then normal his armour gave him a broad, solid look that (in his opinion) the slim woman seemed to lack.

Again, she remained unperturbed by his arrogance or his agitation. Maybe that would work against Vira, but she had seen far worse things. Tilting her head, her sleeves ruffled in the wind, hands hidden within the long fabric. She had long since become ambidexterous and well... she had learned tricks when it came to drawing. For the moment she decided to wait upon using her abilities, brushing her hair back as she chuckled. "Very true. It does give me authority. However, I wouldn't automatically assume someone won't be worth your time. It'll be interesting when I see you in class." She was mostly referring to the fact he called her a stupid woman, herself not really caring but if he cared for grades well... that wasn't the smartest move.
"We aren't the only ones who don't listen Jareth." She said softly, raising an eyebrow as her aqua eyes looked at him. She wasn't bothered that his skin was cold to the touch. She moved around him, pulling out her sketch pad and a pen. "Perhaps you'd rather spar with Vira? Or maybe her roommate Tristan?" She had begun to draw something, however she wasn't about to make it easy for him to see what it was. If anything, she was just trying to stall some time and hopefully calm him. Though it was hard to calm someone who thought you were one of the humans and thus treated you like s**t. "Believe me, both would probably be a waste of your precious time. They need improvement. Everyone does no matter what race, class, or how much experience they believe themselves to have. Every battle we fight we can take something from." She added, looking over to him, her long dark cyan hair attempting to fly in front of her face.

Jareth studied the woman intently for a moment, his saphire blue gaze fixed on her. Before he spoke the fae licked his lips, his tongue long and jet black flitting over pale lips.
"That'll all depend on what you teach now wont it?" he replied, growing restless standing still. He started to pace a small circle around her, mirroring her movements though his eyes didn't leave her for a second.
"Now...you either find these two very weak, or think very highly of me...you have to wonder which one it is hmm?" he mused, partly to her but mostly to himself.
"Say I were to spar with you...what would you take from it? Wisdom? Skill? Or simply the thrill of battle?"

Tsuki continued her drawing, holding off on finishing it until they really started battling. Thus it would become something elaborate and rather complex. She chuckled with a smirk, glancing up as he began to pace around her. "Or maybe I am simply playing to your ego and pride?" She pointed out that possibility, winking to him before her eyes went down to the page, her kimono rustling as they arrived at the training halls.
She paused in the doorway, her pen paused in movement for if she lifted it away, what she had been drawing would surely come to life. And it wasn't quite time for that yet.... She waited to hear what he had to say, her expression softening as her eyes met his. "Perhaps all of the above... I always find it interesting to watch a student progress as they train. They are all battered, sharp stones at first. But with some coaxing they eventually smooth out." She paused, deciding to add a couple more things though her eyes never left him. "We are always smoothing ourselves out from the twisted rock we began as. Do you understand?" She asked, heading towards one of the rooms that was rather well fortified since she wasn't quite sure how to judge his battle skills.

His eyes finally left her person for a few moments so he could examine the training rooms, the smile on his face suggesting he wasn't entirely displeased with the results. At her first comment he laughed, for once sounding rather genuine as he shot back,
"If that is the case then you know my kind better then I previously imagined...that or you have absolutely no clue and have decided to flatter," he stopped circling her and fell into place at her side, his erratic mood seeming to have changed from his blind rage to an eerie calm.
"I understand your meaning, but I can't help thinking that the process works both ways. What of those who wish to become sharp? After all, the desires of the many rarely match the desires of a single being," the fae replied, as her eyes fixed on him he found his own wandering, the new space having caught his attention as a sweet shop might attract a young child. As they entered the fortified room he laughed once more, twirling his sword easily in his hand. He may act in a more childish manner then many of the students who attended Estelle, but that didn't mean he wasn't dangerous...

She couldn't help but smirk a little at his first comment, able to sense his motions as he moved and looked around the room. She finished up her drawing while walking to one wall where there was a locked closet. She drew herself the key, taking it in hand to unlock it even though there seemed to be no keyhole there. She pulled out her yari spear, flicking it with her wrist as the two blades slid out, forming a T at the end of it. Her sketchpad vanished back within her robes as a cloud seemed to have formed next to her. She had drawn a snow leopard with what seemed to be a young girl on it brandishing a sword and shield. "You are not the first of your kind that I have met." She told him with a small smile, petting the snow leopards head gently.
Well well, he was an interesting boy wasn't he? She twirled her spear in her hand, her wrists and fingers remembering how to wield it easily from how many she had sparred with. "Those who wish to become sharp have to be willing to give a little. For once they have found their match, it only proves they have need for more improvement hm? They will not want to fall behind this rival." The young girl on the leopard tugged on her kimono sleeve, leaning down to listen to what she had to say. It was obvious, though both were a creation of hers, they still held their own personalities and abilities. The girl giggled as she lit up a flame above her finger, the snow leopard leading her to one side of the room.
"Ice can be rigid, yet it is formed of water. And yet water flows, takes whatever shape it wishes, it can be harsh or gentle. For me, I would rather be fluid like water, gain new knowledge from each river I pass and grow from it. It does not matter if my opponent is weaker or stronger than me, but which are you? Ice or water?" She asked of him, tilting her head as she played catch with the girls fireball. Well, it was more like she was knocking it back with the blade of her spear, smiling softly at the young girls laughter. She knew his elemental ability was that of ice, but she was still curious to know his answer.

He was silent as he watched her work, graceful as she went about unlocking the cupboard and bringing her creation into being. He'd had no idea of what her power was, and so had no idea what to expect from her. Her explanation suprised him, he had honestly expected the second option to be the truth.
As the teacher prepared herself so did he. Running his thumb along the edge of the sword his pale skin hissed as if burned though his face betrayed little sign of pain. The swords blade was clearly iron, poisionous to all faerie regardless of their strength.
Satisfied with the blade he crouched low, levelling her gaze with the little girl. Smiling to her, Jareth blew the child a kiss before rising to his feet once more and replying to Tsuki.
"We are Unseelie. We are Ice, we are Water, we are Air and we are the Darkness of this world. I am personally the ice. I am as cold and timeless as you suggest i am." his chin lifted with pride as he spoke, turquoise eyes staring her down as he continued,
"But Ice can also form Snow. It is just as deadly and just as quiet, yet it's beauty and grace draws you in...to the point where your willingly trapped with a smile on your face. Your heart just as frozen, just as cold as if you'd been caught by ice itself. Water may change constantly, but the cold has no need to. It is already perfect," he smirked laughing a little as his own head tilting to mirror her own.

She realized when he touched the blade it must be iron, knowing how that must hurt him. Hmm. She had faced different styles of swordsmanship, but she wondered how he would fight. That was half the fun was getting to know ones foe via battle.
The young girl giggled, nodding as she saw the beckoning from Tsuki, the leopard giving a big, toothy yawn. She patted the girl on the head with a small smile, raising her eyes to him as he answered her. She couldn't help but feel her smile widen at his pride, her gaze holding his. Chuckling, the young girl golf-clapped for her since she wasn't about to put down her spear. "Poet. Well done. The fae are always interesting to talk to." She heard the little girl whine next to her, leaning close to her ear and whispering something that was not in their language. Straightening, she sighed lightly, "My apologies, she's growing impatient. Shall we begin?" She asked with a sweet smile, making no move to adjust how she was standing.

Jareth grinned, all of his teeth on full display to result in a feral, animalistic look. It didn't help matters that all of his teeth were pointed canines.
"Well obviously...it's interesting to do lots of things with us," he replied with a wink, dropping into a bow; which somehow managed to come across as patronizing. Still bowed forward he looked up to her and continued,
"Indeed. I believe the phrase is 'Ladies first'?"

The little girl shivered as she saw his smile and teeth, appearing reassured by the touch on her back from Tsuki. She laughed at his reply, shaking her head lightly. She gave a bow to him then, shifting how she held her spear. "Indeed it is. Анна, идет теперь!" She and the girl suddenly split, Tsuki coming at him from the left, the young girl from the right with her sword ready. The girl suddenly threw a fireball at him, then stabbing with her sword as she kept her shield close. Tsuki stabbed forward, ready to adjust her movement to defend or dodge depending on how he would react.

As the two females charged him he dropped from his bow into a roll forwards, suprising light on his feet considering the armour he wore. Deciding the young girl was less of a threat he turned to Tsuki, as she stabbed forwards he ducked and took a sweep of her legs, it was purposefully slow and something he half expected her to avoid.
While he was crouched down his free hand touched the floor, and ice quickly spread towards the little girl astride the snow leopard. With any luck the floor would now be too slippery for them to make a rushed attack while his back was turned. While he worked he laughed aloud, blue eyes bright and shining with excitement.
