"For a tree to become tall it must grow tough roots among the rocks." - Friedrich Nietzsche
 Astin laid her head the desk she was sitting in making the roses, she wasn't sure how many more she could manage today and she didn't want to overwork herself and end up sick. So she laid still pausing her work as she had made enough to keep Tai busy and if he said anything she could simply say she was waiting for him to catch up. Yea, that would work she nodded her head though as she did Tai spoke. She sat up, hiding her fatigue easily as she had many years of practice.
"Nope, haven't been asked," she sighed remembering her brother, "though I doubt anyone will ask and if they do my brother wouldn't be to happy."
Leaning back in the chair she sat in she pushed it back balancing on the back two legs something that most teachers frowned on greatly. She thought back to how over protective her brother was even when they were younger. Once in middle school he had broken her boyfriends hand for going to low while at a school dance. She sighed hoping that if she was asked that no one would end up with anything broken.
Fire is only as dangerous as you let it be. - Unknown

Hayden had slipped off during the fight between the other Court members as he wasn't a fan of men fighting women, not that he didn't think women could handle themselves it was just against his morals. He walked around the school trying to get a feel of his new school. He passed by empty classrooms and went upstairs back to his room. Once in front of his door he saw a note taped to the door and he pulled it down and opened his door entering into his dorm room. He looked around another plus to this school was that fact that he didn't have a roommate. Sitting in front of his laptop, Hayden opened the note and saw that it was just something from the Principal about how honored they were to have him here. With a flash the note was turned into ash and he dumped them into a trashcan.

Lunaru wasnt interested in questions at the moment and knew she'd explain anyway. After their little chat, Lunaru headed towards Tai's class room. He walked a bit sluggishly and felt more of the strain of his battle with Misa.
"Lets get movin guys." Lunaru had said.
♥ ♥
Kimmy bounced up and down like a bunny rabbit, her long black hair flowing everywhere, yet still managing to look nice.
"Well hello there Misa. i heard you were the Ace of the Court in which my cousin belongs to and he's the 9 of hearts." She said noticing Lunaru beginning his way down the hall. she grabbed Misa's wrist and began to pull her gently in a friendly manner. "Whoops wouldnt want to lose little Lunaru, now would we? So, What might your element be?"
She had let go of Misa's arm once they caught up and began dancing around in the hallways. She couldnt wait to meet some more new people. She danced around and stopped up ahead of Lunaru in front of Tai's room. She then began to twirl, her hair spinning gracefully, Leaf petals began to spray from a Lotus in her hair. The petals danced around the girl as she spun around happily. The winter was nothing to her, but mother nature at a different stage. The flower petals upon closer inspection would show to be, all winter flower petals.

Tai continued to work as she spoke. She didn't have a date? He found that sort of surprising. "Really now? I thought for sure someone would've asked you already. Someone like you should have people jumping at the chance." He mentally kicked himself. Sure, he was a teacher, and it was his job to keep students in good spirits. But... that might've been a bit much. Passing it off like it was a nonchalant remark, he continued. "Your brother wouldn't be happy? Sounds like he's denying you your own happiness." He frozed another and then he looked at the large amount of roses he had created, and he was exhausted. Who knew making ice bricks would be so complicated? He took a seat in a desk next to Astin, leaning back. "Wow... who knew such a simple thing could be so tiring? And we aren't even close to being done!"

Trey rose from the door, wiping the tears from her face. She walked over to her bed and fell into the pillows face first. Closing her eyes she sighed as she attempted to smother her face into the fluffy material.
She lifted her head from the pillow, looking around the dark room. How she wished Mandy was here, at least she would be able to talk to the girl, or get harassed or raped by her. She finally sat up in her bed, pulling her knees to her chest. She reached in her pocket for her cell phone, to find it wasn't there..
She sighed as she layed her head on her knees, her mind wondering into her darkest thoughts, a place she never visited before, it was kind of scary this feeling she was feeling. This feeling of not wanting to be anymore, not wanting to do anything. Why couldn't you just leave me alone in my world of pretend, huh Jay? No you had to ruin my life like you ruin everyone elses. I wish you would of never came to this damned school! her voice echoed through her head as she looked at the door. Morrigan sighed as she made her way to the water defence class. Maybe it wasn't so bad, maybe she wouldn't be the only one in the class room, and Tai did seem like a nice guy, maybe she was just a freak, a mute freak. She swallowed as she placed her handle on the door, her white hair covering her face once again..
She held her teddy bear tightly as she opened the door. Smiling as she wasn't the only girl here, the Joker was here.. Maybe she would stay during her lessons.. She hated being uncomfortable, and she knew she needed to get pass her problem if she was going to keep her ranking in the lower Court.

Aurelia stood her ground, torn between backing away or hugging him. "I-it's nothing..." She replied, her voice wavering a little. "It's just that, what you did makes sense." She bowed her head, her hand covering her eyes. "The hug, and maybe that MP3 player...except why you said 'tomorrow'...and why that fact hurts..." Taking a deep breath and then letting it out she shook her head again. "You know what, nevermind." Aurelia gave a weak laugh and then wiped her eyes before facing him. "Just...forget that I was here, or that I even said any of that." She tried to smile, even though her eyes watered as she thought of what she was about to do, and took a step back. You have your reasons, and I should respect that. Aurelia knew it was her time to say goodbye, but she couldn't. Her crying at made it hard to speak normally as it is, and, no matter how hard she tried, she couldn't get rid of the tight feeling in her throat.

Kimmy stopped twirling for a second noticing a little girl opening the door next to her. She smiled, though a bit shocked to find some one shorter than her cousin. She giggled at the thought.
"ooh nice teddy! Hello there my name is Kimmy." she said pulling a lock of hair behind her ear as she bent over to look at the girl. She then pulled the lotus from her hair and offered it to the girl.
"Can i put this in your hair? She asked Happily "it would bring so much color that would complement that teddy bear of yours."
She was lying about the fashion statement but wanted the girl to really feel like the Lotus would make her look even better, though Kimmy simply adored how cute she looked. another thought popped into Kimmy's head, or rather question, "How old is this girl. She has to be the same age as me and Lunaru, they dont let any younger than 12."

 Simply Riku felt like his insides were tearing him apart. His stomach sure felt like it was in more than one piece. Not to mention his lungs wouldn't expand as much as they should. Someone older than him once said that actions speak more than words. He wrapped his arms around her in a hug, only this time, he decided he'd make it last, rather than the awkward one he gave her earlier. "Forget that you at least came to see me off?" He whispered into her ear. "I told Trey and Ken that I was leaving, and you found out from the MP3 player. Yet, only you showed up to see me off. So tell me how I could forget this. Because I know I can't."

 Astin laughed at Tai's comments she turned her head towards him, "I guess. I don't really pay attention to guys that much so I don't think my brother is denying me anything in that way. I'm more bothered by his perfection in the eyes of our parents where as I'm just some weak little thing that requires sheltering."
Letting the chair fall forward, Astin pulled her feet up to the chair and hugged her knees close to her chest. She looked forward as the board in front of the room before turning her head and attention back to Tai as he joked about their workload. She laughed again smiling sweetly as she looked at Tai with her head resting on her knees, "Yea we really haven't even made a dent in the workload. If you want I can whip up more roses and you can assign your students to work on it in class. Then they wouldn't have a chance to bail out. And whoever made the most, and skilled, could get extra credit. Just an idea though."

Morrigan frowned as the girl began to speak to her, who was this girl? Where did she come from? And was she friend or foe? All these questions where too many questions for Morrigan, she nodded as she allowed her to put the flower behind her ear. It was a pretty flower, but she didn't want to hurt the girls feelings.
However her feelings where slightly hurt as she mentioned she looked younger then 12, she was aware of this. She knew she looked like a eight year old, but nobody ever said it like that before.. It actually made her a little mad.
She walked pass her and stood in front of the teachers desk, handing him a note that said she was sorry for being late and that she got caught up in the Cafe. She smiled as she then took a seat in the class, awaiting for him to finish with what he was doing and for her lessons to start.

Tai shrugged as he saw Morrigan walk in and gave him the letter of apology. "It's alright, Morrigan. Don't worry about it." He walked over to Astin and whispered in her ear, "If you could, please stay here. I read her profile, and Morrigan isn't too trusting of males. And to be honest, I'd rather have you here than some other female." His mind flashed back to Mandy when he mentioned the other female. That would be disasterous. He patted Astin on the back and turned to Morrigan. "Alright then, let's begin with creating a block of ice. I want you to create a hollow block and a thick block."

Aurelia couldn't help but hug him back, warm in his embrace which banished the evening winter chill. "Because I don't want you to remember me crying." She laughed half-heartedly. Still, her heart pounded in her ears again, and she didn't want to let him go. "Do...do you really have to transfer?" She asked, placing her forehead on his shoulder. Now her thoughts were muddled, and she tried to ignore the questions that filled her head.

 Astin nodded and looked down at the desk her face flushed from how close Tai had been to her. Though it was a bit more than that as her neck was her weak point and his warm breath gave her chills. Once she had pushed back her thoughts she looked up at the small girl. She was court, and rather young. She looked eight but that wasn't possible, unless she was one of those child protégées. She rolled her eyes thinking back to her brother, if she was then those two would be two peas in a pod.
Feeling her energy returning, Astin poured out the rest of the seeds on her desk and picked them up one by one, making them grow to the perfect white roses she had created earlier. When she was done she had another forty added to Tai's work load. She felt a little bad since she was making him work so hard but, she would find a way to make it up to him. Though as she sat watching the lesson, Astin's eyes dropped and she laid her head down on the desk growing tired. This wasn't good she used more energy then she had planned and now her body was responding with a pounding headache and her fatigue getting the best of her.
((Last for the night for me))

Morrigan sighed at the question, writing down on her paper in rather large letters. Hallow She smiled as she held the paper up, looking back at Astin with a thank you look in her eyes.
She then began to look around, you couldn't have ice without water. And seeing the temperature in this room, it wouldn't last long either. She gave Tai a questioning look, did he expect her to form it out of thin air? She had never done that before, all her attacks had been with water.

 Misa was surprised at the girl's friendliness and chattiness. The Ace rather had the feeling that if she let her, Kimmy would go on and on and on about nothing in particular for a very long time. She seem sweet though, and Misa felt an immediate liking towards the girl as she was dragged along to where they were going.
" I'm the fire element, and I'm the reason Lunaru-chan had scorch marks all over him. We were sparring." Misa said quietly, not really being the talkative type, she just observed as Kimmy twirled around petals of white. " I'm going to guess you're an earth element?"
Then a small child, smaller than Lunaru appeared down the hallway. Her hair snowy white and long, in her arms a stuffed bear. Morrigan...Misa thought immediately recognizing the girl from the picture in the note all the Court members got telling of the child's tragic history. Misa wanted to say something, but before she got the chance Kimmy bounded up towards her as friendly as a puppy. But just as fast the Morrigan walked away. Maybe she's skittish? The fire user thought continuing to follow Lunaru down the hall.

Kimmy reached back To grab Lunaru as she began to pull him into the class room. She was more awe struck at how young the Teacher looked. She was beginning to think every one looked younger than what they actually were at this school, even Lunaru did. Kimmy forgot that they were headed to this Tai persons room and was more interested in this girl and the teacher. She blushed as she stepped in seeing the roses and the other girl. When she saw the other roses frozen her heart hit her chest. Her face was in shock. She wanted to know why they would do such a thing but then she remembered the Head mistress mentioning something about some winter ball thing. she figured they would be decorations. She still felt bad at seeing such. She looked over to another girl in the room who seemed to want to go to sleep to her. She just thought she looked a bit bored. she had let go of Lunaru, now in the room, and sat down next to the blonde haired girl.
"Hi there. im Kimmy and who might you?" she asked happy to meet yet another person.
 
Lunaru kept trying to pull away until he had realized he was in Tai's room. There was the new girl and Astin. He looked over and was surprised at how many they had yet to go. He had thought they might be done by now. Tai and Astin were very good at what they do and putting them together on a project was the surest way to get it done. Though, he had realized the irony in this. They were almost opposites, and he knew Astin was tired due to the winter though she didnt look it to him. He thought for a asecond and wondered why his cousin was far from effected. If she was she did one hell of a job of hiding it. He quietly took a seat and put his head down exhausted and quickly dozed off.
