"Pain is nothing to hide...You chastise me about trying to be kind when my soul hungers for darkness...And you act as though you don't feel pain when it's obvious..."Kira said quietly.He looked at the small ball of fur that was in her lap and looked at the wolf pup at his ankles.He reached down and stroked the young wolf down its back and looked at Tomoro."Alchemy is strange...Wouldn't you agree?Science and all this and that..."He sighed.

"I... don't like science. Science ruined my life. I wish it never existed." Tomoro gritted her teeth together and turned her head away from Kira, her eyepatch now only visible under her thin silver hair. Although she didn't know much about alchemy... scratch that, absolutely nothing at all... it was a science, and Tomoro didn't like it at all. She had only come to this place to find out more about plants, or just walk around a bit... and here she was, just about ready to blow up about why she hated the subject.
"Even though... mankind... cannot survive without it... I wish it would just go away. I would give up the life I have now to live one without such a horrid subject if it means... having a normal life... and a normal eye..." she whispered very faintly to herself. What she would give to be a normal girl, live a normal life, have normal friends... instead of being hunted down by vampires and evil freaks and their girlfriends, claiming she has the power to take over the world. By this time, Tomoro was actually starting to believe this rubbish...

"You seem to have had a rough life..."Kira said."I caught little snips of gossip about you actually...I will stand by you if you wish...I hate people who try to dominate..."He said quietly."And why be normal?"He asked."When you are something better..."He said.

"I'm not better... you know... nothing... about me..." Tomoro said faintly, clenching her hands together. Her knuckles were almost white, and she continued to look away. It looked as if nothing were wrong, but her other eye had a trace of a tear in it. I will not cry... I will not... cry... "I figured people would talk about me. They did such things at home, too... but enough about me. No more." Wiffing her hand in the air, Tomoro sniffed and stood up, her grey hair flowing along her back. This place was making her emotional... and she'd break apart any moment.
Walking away from Kira, putting the fuzz ball on her left shoulder, where it hung loosely, Tomoro pushed her hair onto her right side, wincing a bit at the pain... she had better take care of it soon. Of course, it was concealed by the lace, so she had no idea what it would look like... but still. And she certainly wouldn't let Kira see it, because it went all the way down from her shoulder to her ankle, and s he'd have to strip. No way a guy was seeing her in THAT condition.
That had only happened once before, when a guy saw her, and plainly, it wasn't too pretty. Shaking her head, sighing, and looking up at the ceiling, Tomoro pondered what to do, biting her lower lip softly.

Kira, easily sensing her sadness put an arm around her left side gently."Calm down Tomoro..."He said softly starting to feel saddened by her mood as well."If you need someone..I'm here ok?"He told her gently.Great...I'm turning into a softy...But...I should at least offer some consolation right?He thought to himself.

Although she tensed up instantly when he touched her, and she inahaled sharply, Tomoro slowly let out a soft sigh, her shoulders relaxing. "Yes... t-thank you..." She turned a light red, but wondered... why was he doing this? She hadn't done anything for him... and she sensed a great chaos burning within him... similiar, no, EXACT to someone she had seen passing by her a few times. I kinda wish he would go away... but at the same time... it's kind of nice to know someone cares about me... even if it is out of pity.
How strange it was; six months ago, Tomoro would have shoved off Kira and declared that he go away. What was it that had made her softer? Her boyfriend? Her regular friends? The constant thought that she was going to die at a young age anyway? Whatever it was, it kind of made her sick, yet guilty with pleasure.

"I know you want to cry...Go ahead..."Kira said gently.He kept his arm around her gently."It's alright...I'm good at keeping secrets if you don't want people to know about you crying...So just let it out.Take your fear...Your pain...Your sadness...And just release it all..."He said softly.I swear...I normally don't do this...What is it about this girl...He thought.

Rivera watched the blur of light take over her mind. It burned like hell, an excruciating brand on the scars of the past. She forced her mind open, to watch what had passed so long ago...
"Quickly! We must get out of here!"
The sky was crumbling... no... it was the sea... but how does the sea crumble? And how can it crumble on anything? Great buildings of pewter stones heavily laid with pearls and precious stones, encrusted with the artistic history of 10,000 years, falling into pieces like a piece of shattering glass. It was like a picture painted onto a breaking vase, shattered upon the white marble floor that was death and despair. How ironic that it must be white, when hell itself is red and black in its inferno and Styx--Sorrow itself-- would bear the color of heaven.
"Where is Princess Raesekri?" A female voice...
"Kile! We have to get out of here!" A male voice following...
"Tora, I can't find Rae!"
"Mother, I'm here! I'm right here! Miri is here too. What about Isa? Is she--" A refined female voice much younger than the first.
"Isa is fine. We have to get out!" The male voice again.
"Father! Do we really have to leave here? Where will we go?"
The world became a little clearer... there were shapes floating in the air... they were vague and foggy, but they depicted people...
"Isa, you're alright!" It was a lighter voice of pure worry.
The male voice spoke again. "We will head forth to the land of the ancients... Anglaterra... and we will rebuild our history there. There is no more we can do, now that the gods have turned on us..."
Rivera opened her eyes and found herself falling to the ground. She could barely feel the impact of the cold floor on her skin. She knew a little more of who she was... the spell was exhausting, but she knew more. That was all she was aiming for. Knowledge.

Tomoro's eyes widened as Rivera fell to the ground, and she broke away from Kira, dashing over to her. "I can't cry. Too many tears have been wasted." If anyone was going to get hurt, it was her. And she wasn't going to let what happened to her fall upon anyone else. Kneeling down, she examined the girl, and put her palm on her forehead; she was burning up.
"Damnit..." she mumbled to herself, taking a slow, deep breath, and hoisting the girl on both of her shoulders. The impact of a body against her burn caused her to yelp quickly, but she shut her mouth and took a few deep breaths, in and out. "She needs... to go to the hospital. Come if you want, I don't care. But... I know what it's like to be pushed to the limit, and it's not pretty." Like that one time... I almost died... the school had a lot less kids back then... Closing her eyes for a moment, and biting her lower lip harshly, her teeth piercing through the delicate flesh, it began oozing out red blood which she let flow down her face as she continued walking toward the exit, and to the emergency room.
((Next post by whoever: the hospital! ^ ^; ))

Shepard sat on top of a laptable with his legs folded. All around him where tiny robots fixing the damage someone had made to the lab. He was reading a magzine...and holding a fishing hook?! " Man Im smart. Instead of chasing the rabbit. Have it come to me!" he said laughing.
There was a carrot tied to the end of the pole as Shepard waited for the Lil white rabbit to come. He whistled a small tune having increiable patience while waiting. " I wonder how fast the rabbit really goes. Not faster than me! I am Shepard Miranda! Fastest person alive! Only rivaled by his father Aimless!" he said smiling widley.

Stumbling in, Seth looks round for the instructor. The others here seemed to be into whatever they were doing, but it wasnt work. He pulled off his black bag and puts it under the lab bench. He was here for alchemy, so he could make more fireworks.

"This bites. I'll come back later. I think I'll try a battle." he says picking up his bag again and stashing it in his assigned locker on the way out. He made sure he had his fireworks before leaving and pulled out a spare bat, this time wooden. the Spaulding labelwas there.

Lorelai arrived in the Asura Labs shortly after processing all that nonsense about 'student ID cards' and 'dorm rooms' in the courtyard with that insufferable robot greeter. She shook her head, smiling quietly to herself, but ultimately disappointed with the apparently inferior technology at this school. Even the teleporters over at the dorms took too long - the ones back home got you where you needed to go in less than a second, and they could take you anywhere on the planet.
Oh well! she thought to herself. The past is the past anyway. No use thinking about that now - at least, not until the computer's done with its calculations.
Thinking about all of this as she walked through the halls, she made her way to the section for the students specializing in mechanics and engineering. Throwing the doors open wide, she confidently strode into the room, looking around at the random pieces of half-completed machines and robots strewn about. Folding her arms and closing her eyes, she nodded to herself.
"Well, it's far from perfect, but it'll have to do," she said, adjusting the pair of inventor's goggles on the top of her head. "From this day forward, this is home base! Now, to clean the place up a little and make it look more homey..."
And with that, she set about straightening up and organizing the lab - putting away tools, sorting spare parts, throwing away old pieces of scrap metal, and putting the halfway completed projects safely in storage. After some time, she dusted her hands off and smoothed out the creases in her red jumpsuit, putting her hands on her hips and admiring her handiwork.
"There! That'll do just fine," she said, nodding at her own statement and smiling happily. Going over to a workbench, she took out a piece of paper and a black permanent marker, writing a sign that read: LORELAI'S ROOM. ENTER AT YOUR OWN RISK.
Smiling at this and laughing a little to herself, she took the sign over to the door, hanging it up on the outside. "I suppose I'll have to rig up a keypad later to keep people from just waltzing on in here. And find another room for the mechanics students to work on their silly little projects." Shrugging her shoulders, she closed the door behind her. "Oh well, that's work for later! Time to go see what else this campus has to offer."
Whistling to herself, she walked back down the hallway and out of the science building, intent on exploring the rest of campus.

Kumizu walked into the labs with slices of lemon and lime, as well as some yeast, under his arm. He looked around. There was random equipment strewn about, some drawers were open here and there, and a few scientists were working on various projects. There was also a seperate room that had a sign proclaiming it belonged to someone named Lorelai...
"Whatever," he mumbled to himself. Kumizu started moving around the room, collecting the items he needed for his experiment. He took his time; Ayise wouldn't be there until the next morning.

With everything he needed, Kumizu looked around for the appropriate place to set up. Not finding one, he turned to one of the scientists. "Excuse me, is there a table that can heat up, kind of like a stove top?" She pointed to another table and he followed her finger.
Most of the table was black, like the others, but there was a silver part in the middle. He set down the items he would need, preparing to go to work. First, he stood a copper bottle upright. He pulled out the original container he used for the liquid and set it on the table as well. He held a hand over the second container and it slowly filled the bottle. He needed pure water from this, and where better to get it from than a Water elementalist?
With that, he poured the water and yeast into the copper bottle. He then took a wire, also made of copper, and connected it to both the bottle and container. With the fruit slices and a thermometer nearby, he put only the copper bottle on the silver part of the table and began to heat it.
