Kibbity_Kabbit2 Tana watched as Sig left, feeling a bit saddened. But it couldn't be helped. She was a teacher now & that meant having responsibilities. For now, though, she was going to get some sleep. She laid back on the cushions & drifted away. Welcoming sweet dreams of tonight's escapades.  I walk into the class room and noticed that the teacher was asleep. I knew i wanted to chuckle but my body wouldn't allow the emotion to shine through. I sigh and looked around me to notice that there is such a calm feel about this room. It was layback and frankly made me a little sleepy. "Well, it would be rude to wake her up. plus no other students are here yet" i mused out loud as i walked to a nearby chair and sat. I put my staff near the wall beside my a drifted off to sleep. The dream was the night my brother committed suicide. The dream wouldn't let me rest so i was plagued with fitful sleep.

Tana awoke as she thought she heard someone enter her class. Sure enough, she was correct. As there was a handsome, young fellow resting on one of the cushions about a foot away from her. {Maybe he's my first student. How exciting!}, she wondered to herself. Then she noticed his body was writhing as if he were trying to get away from something. {Poor thing...he's having a bad dream.}, Tana thought as she walked over to him. She knelt down beside him, closed her eyes & placed her hand on his forehead. A pleasant wave connected them as she spoke telepathically, ~~~Everything is alright, you're dreaming. You should wake up now. I'd be happy to meet you.~~~

"Like hell it is!" I woke up to see the teacher was hovering over me. I looked up at her and said a little hoarsely "I'm Carter Miller. I'm a student of yours" I mumble

Tana smiled warmly as she could see that Carter was still feeling tense. If anything, she wanted her students to know they could feel at home here. "I thought you might be. You're the first to come to my class. I was almost afraid the headmasters' didn't approve of my teaching methods.", Tana said giggling. "Well, as you might have guessed, I am your teacher. You may call me Tana or Miss Tana. Whichever makes you more comfortable."

"The feel of the room is much more relaxed than anything I have known" I meant that. My father never was a nice man and my mother never had the guts to move away from him. So she suffered even In death. I thought darkly as I remember my father telling me and my brother that he had no intention to raise such brats...And that's when I began an orphan with no family to call my own.

Tana watched as Carter's blank expression never wavered. {His heart's been that damaged? I wonder if I'll have any trouble from him.}, Tana thought to herself. "Well, I teach very differently from other teachers here. I would hardly call this a class if you were going to ask me. I just want you & my other students to know your true potential. Your hearts as well as your minds, I would like to help open them up.", Tana explained.

Emmi is the only one who knows and understands my stone face that I wear to keep from going over the edge into violent emotions. I don't use my stone face to keep people out, i use it keep myself in check. "Sounds like fun" I mumble dully and wonder if I can even survive reopening the wounds that I tried to bury and bandage. Some how i fail to heal.. so i covered it up instead of asking for help when i was younger.

Slowly & cautiously, Tana reached her hand out to Carter. As if she were attempting to touch a snake. She moved his hair away from his eyes thinking at first how beautiful their color was & then....{I wonder what story these eyes of yours hold.} "If you are going to be apart of my class Carter, I must ask you to trust me. I promise I won't let anything harm you, especially yourself.", Tana said firmly yet keeping her warm smile.

"Are you reading my mind?" i ask caution filling my voice as she moved my hair out of my face. I didn't want people to see the emotions in my eyes that i try to suppress. It was unnerving to know that my teacher can read my mind.

Tana was shocked by Carter's question. "Of course not. I would never invade someone's mind in that way. That's the same as reading someone's journal in my opinion." "Carter....", Tana stated more gently..."You may think you can hide away with stone face, but your eyes speak what your heart cannot." Tana then lightly rubbed her hand along his cheek, "Please, don't be afraid to open your heart to me. You're safe here." Tana was doing her best to allow Carter comfort, but she could see he was resisting to protect himself. She probably shouldn't push any further than this, but she couldn't help herself. When she sees something in this much torment, it's like she needs to know what causes it. Just so she can know how to help them fight it. She does these things simply because she cares enough to.

Maybe i'm reading too much into it. I sigh and closed my eyes as i thought of how much she reminds me of my caring mother who just couldn't save herself from a ruthless man instead of allowing herself to suffer. "Sorry miss Tana, i just have a hard time allowing myself to feel things. It's not cause i want people to leave me alone, i just don't want to end up like my brother." i mumble darkly as i remember the nightmare and the night my brother committed suicide. I kept my eyes closed until i was able to feel the memory fade. Then i opened my eyes and prayed she didn't see the dark emotion that i tried to hid away.

Tana smiled brightly as Carter relaxed a bit. "Don't worry. I can help you be exactly what you dream for yourself. You don't have to share everything with me right away. Take your time & I'll be here when you need me.", she said as she removed her hand from his face. "Now, are there any questions you have for me?"

"Now, are there any questions you have for me?" i ask softly as i kept trying to push more of the memory away. I was going to distract myself at all cost from reliving that night. I look at the teacher and thought that this year will surely test my emotion level. I sigh and smile a little at the thought of a hard year with restless encounters with people who don't understand me. This may be the only place i can think.

"I'm of mixed race. You see, my father is a fire lord & my mother a water nymph. Complete opposites right?", she said giggling. "Anyway, I took after my father though & have trained myself as a fire mage. I have a younger sister, Maia, who took after our mother & was born a Nix.", Tana explained.
