Iri slowly descends upon the academy, neatly landing before the porch steps. What was supposed to be a short flight had ended up lasting until long after dawn. Her wings stretch and flap a few times before folding to her back. Feet clad in nothing more than thin cotton socks sink into the snow as she walks to the steps and then up them to the dry porch. Sometime during the night she had removed her boots and taken to carrying them in both hands; the heavy shoes can hinder the movement of her feet while in the air, which isn't a good thing when she often uses her feet and legs for steering much like a hawk uses its tail feathers as a rudder.
The night long flight has exhausted the recently ill girl, but it's rejuvenated her at the same time. I don't know what kind of virus had me down, but I think I'm over it now. The exercise was all I needed to really shake it off.
Softly smiling, the girl lets herself lean up against a wall and slide down into a sitting position. She tosses her boots in front of her, along with her wet socks after yanking them off of her feet. Her wings come forward and cover her for warmth. Though she was up all night, Iri is feeling as fresh as a daisy.

((A goodbye to Fenris but none for his sensei, huh? Fuji-kun's getting a GOOD talking-to in June, let me tell you.))
Nyl landed in the snow too, several hours later. She hated being constantly called away like this - she was almost never at the dojo anymore - but it was part of the agreement, and she'd hold up her end of the bargain as long as the other end held up, too.
She came silently up the porch steps, glancing repeatedly over her shoulder as though expecting someone to follow. Thus far, though, no one did.

princessbabygal107 She takes a step back when he says that and her eyes widen.
"there isn't anything to spill." She said taking another step away from Reeve trying to think of a way to change the subject immediatly and get out of this. "Other than blood?" He stands up, then flicks her hard on the forhead. His eyes convey anger and disappointment. "Tell me."

(( Hee-hee! =P ))
Fenris stared down at the demolished muffin with a hollow, blank expression. She had Fuji's note in hand now, a cold, empty feeling left in her heart. she had been picking at that muffin for hours now until it was just a pile of crumbs. She still hadn't really noticed what she had done, her mind elsewhere.

(( Nyl! Yayness! ))
Iri peeks out at Nyl from behind her wings. She's still sitting on the porch, leaning against the wall. At first, she's excited to see her semi-sensei. Then, her face blanches.
When was the last time I practiced that last technique? Uh-oh...

She shut up after he asked that and she looks at the ground avoiding his gaze but she didn't say anything, and she just continued to back up but even more now.

One by one, kunai and shuriken remove themselves from Reeve's holsters, and start revolving around him, like moons to a planet. His eyes narrow, and it's clear that he really doesn't have patience for cutters.
" If y'wanna get cut up, darlin' dear," he says, his accent thick with annoyance, "Y'found the right man. Now I suggest y'tell me whid'a'were you were thinkin' and why th'hell you thought it ere I lose me temper."

She watches him nervously and still backs away from him . Her mouth opening but no words coming out at all and her hand moved into her pocket....she knew she was close to the bedroom halls and she was thinking on running ....but before she finished thinking it , she realized she was running for the hall.

"Ayayayay," he says, tossing out his wrist-chains, " Y'better /get/ your cry-for-helpin' a** back here."
With that, he flicks them at her ankles, his intent to trip her up.

Speaking of that technique... Iri brings a hand out of the warm confines of her wings. A ball of air starts to form above her palm. Just as she was taught to do, Iri starts to condense the swirling mixture of air and chakra. ...I really should be working on it.

She hears him but continues running so lost in thought that she was easily taken down by it and she fell on her knee and went to get back up immediatly to make it to her room and lock herself in.

Nyl laughed quietly at Iri's display, though there was sadness in her eyes. As soon as her feet had touched the snow, she knew...
"You haven't practiced. ...I don't mind. Really." The smiled stayed, and it was genuine, if a bit reserved. "Sometimes things just get in the way."

" Suit yourself. Only one door, sport."
He shakes his head and heads to the kitchen.

Fenris heard footsteps heading her way as she blinked, coming out of her trance like state. She looked to the crumbs, confused. When did those get there? And where was her muffin?
With a sigh, she put the note down for only but a moment in order to clean up the mess and throw the pile o' crumbs out in the trash.
