So Many Characters In One Place...
Emerald eyes held thier glare against Len as Bella's response came swiftly. "What? Reed is dead." She was so sure of it, as all facts she'd ever learned stated so. Still, her next words were softer, and her voice unsure. "Is he not?"
With an expression of surprise, Seth's immediate reaction woul be to pull Tabby back. Knowing, however, that once the witch made her mind up, she would never change it. Simply shaking his head, he spoke kindly, telling her, "Just stay safe." With a new plan, the siren knew he'd have to get his daughter to the room and watch her himself; although it would never have been his first choice with battles so near.

※The Gang Is All Here...
Waiting for his objections to bubble to the surface, she looks noticeably relieved when the other student approached. She watched him set to work, and was about to slip away when she noticed what was in one of the bags. Her brow furrowed in question, and it was only when he returned with a single feather and a bandage that she nearly gasped. "Is that a griffin feather?" she asked after watching him tie the final knot. Oh, how she would jump this student now if it weren't for the monsters roaming about that needed slaying. Her eyes were tight and focused, shifting from the clean bandage to the boy's face. "Don't tell me you're a-"
"A Griffin, yes." he finished, his eyes narrowed and suspicious in return. She had been eyeing that feather possessively, and he knew that she could only be one of the air spirits his parents had spoken about. Griffins and Sylphs, while on friendly terms now, had once been on very rough terrain. Sylphs had a thing for feathers, and Griffins just so happened to have feathers of the magical variety. While his suspicion remained obvious, he relaxed slightly as he realized that the other couldn't be a Sylph; he paid no attention to the feather at all, and no Sylph in their right mind wouldn't recognize a griffin feather. "And you're a Sylph."
"Yes." she confirmed, taking a step back. She wanted the feather, but there were other things that needed her attention right now... But what were they again? Something about monsters, and fighting and.... Andrew. Yes, Andrew! They were arguing a moment ago, and everything came back to her rather clearly. No time for Griffin feathers now, no matter how nice and magical they were. Turning back to Andrew, a brilliant smile lights her features. "So you were just about to say how much you wanted to stay here and take care of your roommate and his puppy, right?" she asks, a little too cheery now compared to her attitude earlier.
Rolling his eyes at Haiki's pace, the redhead moves forward to snatch up his hand. "We'll never get away without her seeing us at this pace." he informs the other, taking a firm grip of the kitsune's hand. "We're going to have to run." he grins, the expression excited and fueled by adrenaline. There were things to fight, and he still had more than enough fire and steel left to do so. With Haiki at his side, he had little worry about pesky things like being careful. He picked up the pace, not wanting to drag along his companion, but demonstrating that they needed to really move.
Suspicious of the conversation going on between Bellatrix and the vice principal, Adney decided he'd very much like to hear their conversation. Almost without thinking about it, his physical body faded from eyesight, leaving behind an afterimage for all to see. Illusion Adney stood with the same posture, hands in his coat pockets; his chest moved as if he was breathing, and he would occasionally fidget and scan the field of battle. The real Adney, however, was completely gone from sight; only one with the power to see through illusions would see him, and even then they would only see the one. Moving casually in the direction of the two teachers, he took up a watchful post just barely within earshot. He kept himself busy scanning the field, occasionally shooting a distraction at the monsters attacking his students.

Len frowned. He would have to answer sooner or later about Reed. It would have to come out sooner or later. "Yes and no. His body is dead, but he lives on in a new one." The vice principal answered. Giving reasons why he was probably in the position he was in now.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Tabby looked at her ex boyfriend and smiled. She leaned in and gave their daughter a kiss before giving Seth a kiss on the cheek. She was going to reward him for his good behavior and taking care of Yvette. "When I get back tell me what I owe you. Anything remember that?"
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Haikimaru grabbed a hold of Cam's hand and continued to walk. He was way ahead of the other teen. "I have taken care of that. I have the ability to use my illusions. We also can start a fire to prevent her from following as well." The Kitsune gave a possible suggestion.

So Many Characters In One Place...
Andrew's eyes darted between the blonde and Rina, his expression honestly thoughtful as he tried to distinguish the unspoken event happening in front of him. His eyebrow raised lightly as the boy's race was revealed. Of course, the immediate news was no shock, as several races walked among this campus. What was surprising, was the slyph's obvious mood change, and it was that change that prompted him to think about what sort of relationship her race held with griffins. Her eyes were practically glued to the feather now on his roommate, and his mind replayed thier talk at the ramen shop. Did slyphs really love feather so incredously? When her voice cut through any ideas, the necromancer simply crossed his arms as he responded, "No, I was saying how we are going back out there."
Bellatrix's arms fell from thier position as she proccessed the warlock's words. Reed's was alive and apparently held an appearence unknown to any textbook or story. "What?! And do you know what this form would be?" she questioned, her tone clearly being forced at a lower level of volume. Another sigh errupted from her as she spoke with frustration. "Can you tell me, please, exactly how much danger we are all in?" Even if her focus wasn't entirely upon Len, which it was, the teacher would never have guessed there to be a new set of ears nearby, and therefore has no problem discussing the issue at this very moment.
Giving a last look to Tabby, the siren went on his way, not bothering to say any more or demand a reward. He truly felt that caring for his child, and knowing she was safe, would be prize enough. His steps moved quickly as held Yvette close and he was quick to enter his family dorm. His eyes swept the room quickly, and he found Aurora's eyes looking to him expectantly.
Looking up eagerly to find her uncle within the room, Aurora jumped as her question was asked. "Is there really an attack?" Before an answer could be issued from the older siren, the blue-haired girl ducked out of the door, leaving Seth and her baby cousin within. Her mind was tingling with worry and fear as she moved through the masses of people, her sole intent focused on finding her sister.
Dawn hadn't spent much time in one spot, and instead had been wandering through campus in pursuit of any monsters. Finding none, she led a random path...that eventually crossed with two male students. Both with such odd hair color; one purple, the other flaming red; that she stopped immediately and chose them to ask, "What's going on?"

Len watched the movement of Bellatrix. She seemed surprised that Reed was still alive. Out of all people to bring back why not bring that man back. "Because I helped chose the form. I was one of the teacher how hand-picked his knew body 15 years ago." The man answered about Reed's form. "I don't know how much danger we're facing.This one seems worst than before. I'd rather die before putting those I care for in danger." The man's eyes glowed brighter.

Even the strongest of gales cannot cause it to collapse... Some distance away from the school grounds lay what could almost be described as a scrapyard. Bits of metal and brick that once served as a building or two was scattered about, sticking out of the ground at numerous angles. Many people simply walked past to get to somewhere else on any given day. Had someone done so today, the would have noticed pieces starting to vibrate and shift ever so slightly. With the groan of metal scraping metal and small thuds made by bricks and stone packing together, two columns stood a few feet away from each other, slowly growing taller with each passing second. The metal twisted around the stone, as if forming some sort of guard. More pieces started forming other shapes, soon joining onto the top of the columns, creating what could've been call a body and a set of arms. This was exactly what was happening. With a final, earsplitting groan, the last piece of metal, a giant sheet of steel, curved around a large cylinder of stone, floating up and landing on the previously headless torso with a heavy thud. To say that this thing was huge was an understatement, each pillar that served as an arm or leg wider than most of the trees in the area, the whole thing being almost as tall as if not taller. With slow, deliberate movement, the golem lifted a leg and let gravity take over, creating a thunderous boom as it began to set it's seemingly non-existent sights on the nearest man-made structure, which of course was none other than the school, and slowly started towards it's target. ...what makes you think you can do better? ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Yuri was still in the midst of gathering all that he needed as quickly as possible when he heard it. Almost as if someone dropped a giant boulder on the island, he swore he could even feel a slight tremor. "What in the world was that!?" He thought, his inner voice almost inaudible due to the continuation of the alarms, not to mention the literal hundreds of rushing footsteps near his dorm. Biting his lip, he couldn't help but wonder where Lillie was in all of this. "She can handle herself just fine in these sort of situations...but still..." He said to himself, shaking the thought off as another crashing noise entered his ears. Figuring it was best to keep the thoughts at bay, he unsheathed his twin swords, holding them reverse-handed as he left the dorm and rushed through the passing crowd, heading towards the location of the noise.

※The Gang Is All Here...
Her smile vanished, and she mimicked his pose. "Well then you're going to have to catch me." she challenged, eyes narrowing slightly. She wanted Andrew to stay here for his own protection, but he just wouldn't cooperate. He had mentioned on a couple occasions that he wasn't a very good fighter, and with what was going on right now, she'd very much like to hide him and his adorable niece somewhere they would be safe. Her head turned at a loud noise, and her eyes widened slightly. That safe place was definitely not the school, with that thing approaching. It didn't look to be made of flesh and blood, and she knew that her knives wouldn't be of much use. Frowning, she gives a swift glance to Andrew before fading completely from view. This was one power she had failed to mention before, and so now was as good a time as any to use it. Hesitating a moment, she watched Andrew's reaction before turning and sprinting in the beast's direction.
Scanning the area from the sky, Icarus waited patiently for a new creature to appear. Most others present were already being handled, and it seemed the other students got rather territorial when one jumped in out of nowhere. At least, that's what he thought the other had been whining about. Noting a very large... thing of some sort appear on the field, he finds this to be as good a target as any. Examining it carefully, he had planned to scout for weaknesses when a familiar shape appeared within his line of sight, making a beeline for the creature. Growling something under his breath, he briefly wonders where her little friend had gone before dropping down and moving in step beside her. "I thought I told you to be careful. That thing is huge, and stabbing it won't be very effective." he snaps, his polite mask replaced by irritation. "And where's your little boyfriend? He was supposed to keep you from doing stupid things."
Letting out a short groan as her brother appeared at her side, Rina reappeared within sight. "I forgot we can see each other. I was supposed to be invisible." as her brother laughed at her small misfortune, her cheeks flushed at his label for Andrew. "He would have tried to stop me, so I kind of ditched him." she explained, ignoring the boyfriend comment. She had passed swiftly enough through the crowd, and she could only hope he didn't see her.
Feeling a tug at his arm, he frowns momentarily in confusion when Haiki spoke. "You'd think I'd be used to illusions by now." he spoke very quietly, and too himself. He still wanted to run, but his lover seemed adamant about walking. That wasn't nearly as much fun, but he didn't resist. He opened his mouth to question if the other wanted the forest set on fire when a girl appeared before them on the path. He raised an eyebrow at the girl, raising one hand to point at the very large creature headed towards the school, and the two white-haired students already descending upon it. "Creatures like that keep showing up, and the teachers have left them to us to eliminate." he explained, his voice calm and even. He still looked rather excited, but with no beast close enough to burn, he had sobered slightly.

So Many Characters In One Place...
Before Bellatrix could respond, her gaze was easily captured by a tremendous creature not terribly far from this group's current position. Her eyes narrowed as she studied it; only seeing metal and stone was sickening to her. Knowing very well electricity would not help this fight, she recrossed her arms as she adressed Len. "Do you not have at least a plan of sorts?"
Frowning, Andrew kept his stance as Rina's mood shifted once again. Her challenge caused an eyebrow to raise and words to gather quickly. "I-" but before he could even utter another word the slyph was gone. Literally. Only using a moment of surprise, he couldn't help but grumble angrily beneath his breath, "Rina!" Glancing back to his roommate to ensure that he would be cared for, he immediately left the small room, his path toward the one place he'd suspect her of going; the newest monster.
With eyes widened in interest at the creature looming nearer, Dawn listened intently to the red haired man. So students had permission to fight? That was good news to hear. A small smirk appeared on her lips as quickly acknowledged the two. "I see, thank you." dipping her head momentarily in a small form of polite thanks, she flashed them a grin before dashing off in the direction of the great metal beast.

Haikimaru let his boyfriend do the talking while his eyes turned to the giant creature that had a appeared. It was huge. The creature was going to be a challenge, a fun one at that. Haikimaru moved his head side to side and started to move a bit before he ran after it. Breaking the illusion. It seemed that the fox found the challenge he was looking for. It was a good guess that Haiki didn't even have a plan to take it down and he was just acting on a whim.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Len's eyes widen as he looked at the golem. This was not going to be a cake walk. The man pulled out his wand and pointed it at the golem. A stream of light came out of it like a rope and connected to the golem. It then retracted and pulled Len alone till the man was onto of it.

The golem stopped it's movements as Len landed on it. Turning it's head, the grinding of stone on stone sounded almost like a growl. Slowly, the creature began to rock side to side, gradually gaining a small amount of speed as it did. Whilst it's movements were sluggish, the golem was generating a large amount of force behind each and every shift. It was, so far, only aware of the man that had landed on it, any students or other people that were in the vicinity went unacknowledge. The golem shook harder, trying to remove the Vice Principle from its body.
Yuri had made it outside when he saw the sheer scale of the thing, his eyes widened as he kept his position a secret from it. Studying the golem for a moment, he thought he could see the figure of a man on top of it. "Is that...it couldn't be..." He said, soon shaking away the distraction, he had far more pressing issues to deal with to worry about who that was. From the looks of it, his swords wouldn't do much good, he sheathed them quickly and looked around. "There's got to be something I can do..."

Descending upon the beast, the Windstorms both took to the sky. Rina might have worried about Andrew seeing her from the ground, but she was far too focused for that now. Her eyes widened slightly in surprise as the Vice Principal himself landed on the creature. She glanced swiftly to her brother, who nodded sharply; they would back him up at all costs. Watching it carefully, they quickly picked up it's plan, and circled around to one side. Maybe, if they could knock it over, it would be incapacitated. At least, for a short time. As the creature built up it's momentum, the siblings extended their arms fully, waiting patiently for it to lean the opposite way. Just as it started to move away, sharp winds shot out from around them, attempting to knock it off balance.
Grinning broadly as Haiki finally started to run, he took a quick moment to give the girl a short salute using the first two fingers on his right hand. She, too, took off running, and Cam's grin wavered slightly before he followed behind. He didn't like being outrun, and as he went flames began to appear at his hands, flickering their way up his arms once more. Once again, small balls formed in his palms and he hurled them at the beast when he was close enough. His fire wasn't going to work too well on this beast, but he could at least be a distraction.

Mizuki pulled Cedric behind her when she saw the golem. It was easy to tell the woman was protective of him. It was like the mousy senior was her little brother even though they had no blood connection. The dance teacher was willing to take on the giant even with her weak body. The woman notice a familiar brown haired man on the golem. "Is that Len?" She commented as Cedric peeked over her. He was taller than her. "Pyry do you think both of us can distract that creature?" She asked her boyfriend. Ice and a sonic scream could do well couldn't it?

Lillie dashed passed Yuri with her bow in her hands. About a hundred yards from her fiancee she stopped and pulled out an arrow. She was going to help her father. No matter how different or similar the two of them were she was still going to help or at least try. The girl aimed for the creatures forehead. She wasn't out to kill it. She knew her weapon was no good. But she could at least give her father some time to bring it down.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Haikimaru thought as he work on a plan as he got to closer to the creature. The only think that could possibly work that Haiki had in his fire power. The college student put his sword back in his sheath while he hands started to glow. Would it be possible to melt the creature a bit. "Cam, aim for it's arm." The Fox yelled out as he threw a few fire balls. He didn't have the power to do more than that like his boyfriend did.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Len almost fell if it wasn't for his wand. That was not to say he wasn't going to have a bruise or two by the end of it. If this kept up then there would be some bones. His glasses did fall leaving the man partly blinded. He could see shapes, but what those shapes were was a guess. He notice an arrow hit fairly close to him before the glasses fell. It was an Elvish arrow. It had to have come from Lillie. She was rooting him on. It made the man feel happy.

Glancing at Mizuki, Pyry paused before answering. "I don't know how well we would fair against it." watching Cam and his friend bombarding it with fire, he wasn't sure how useful he'd be with ice. Besides which, he really didn't want Mizuki anywhere near such a dangerous thing. His head automatically looking about them to try and find the real Adney; the image beside them he knew was not real, but he wasn't sure where the real one stood. He was hoping for his friend to weigh in, but that would be impossible if he were off somewhere.
Just as Pyry began looking for him, the fake Adney vanished completely from view. The real Adney approached them, reappearing as he stood back in his normal spot. "I think if you want to give the man a distraction, I'm your best bet." he grinned, reaching over to touch Mizuki likely on the cheek. "You, my dear lady, had best stay here before you give my dear brother an ulcer from worry. If it's still there in a while, then let Rye have a go." dropping his hand, he gives her a short wink before turning and taking off for the creature. Around him, clone after clone appeared around him in an orderly formation. It was like an army of Adney had appeared, all but the one in the center wearing identical camo fatigues and carrying weapons of various make and models. What made this most interesting, was that no one could see it; no one but the beast and Adney himself.
Taking a second to catch up to Haiki's plan, the redhead grinned; he saw where the other was going with this. Extending his hands, a focused beam of heat and flames shot out from his palms and at the creature's arm... or was it a leg? He didn't know, but it didn't really matter. Glancing at the kitsune's fireballs, he briefly wondered just how effective they were before turning his attention back to his flames. If he concentrated, he could make them burn hotter; he'd love a bit of gasoline about now, but that didn't seem possible just now. No matter, he'd just have to make do.

Mizuki moved her body so that she was between Adney and Cedric. She didn't like what the teacher was carrying and Ced liked it less. "I just want to do something. I mean Len took me in when my father got into a fight and I left Atlantis. As my former teacher I feel that I should help the man who took care of me." Mizuki didn't say how young she was when she told her father she had enough. Mizuki was only ten when she stood up for her beliefs and left Atlantis. It was a brave thing for an ten year old to defy her father and a king at a young age and walk out on her life and still hold what she held true.
