Ari heard a commotion coming from the general direction of the sleeping person. She twisted her head about to see what was going on. Standing up to get a better view, still dripping wet, Ari noticed the guy wasn't asleep anymore. No noise escaped her mouth in sheer shyness.

Eventually, Agasai noticed the dripping wet girl standing in the fountain.
"Hey! are you the one that woke me up?"
He sat up, then rose to his feet to slowly make his way over to Ari.
"Well? Are you or not?"

Ari stared blankly at the stranger. "I do not know. I was over here the entire time." She noticed a few drops resting on the man. "If it is because of the water, I am guilty." Ari climbed out of the fountain and gently set her foot down on the warm ground.

Agasai backed up a bit, giving her some space.
"Well, be careful next time please. You might kill the wicked witch of the west without knowing it next time."
He smiled a bit.
"So, what's your name?"

A smile gleamed across Ari's face at his comment about the wicked witch. She surveyed him quickly before deeming him no immediate threat. "I am called Ocean's Beauty by all who enter the waters of my home. My true identity is not of that though. I was once named Ari. May I ask what your name is?" Ari's eyes searched his for an answer before he could give it.

James could hardly see with the water in her eyes clouding her vision and so it was inevitable when she plowed into Seishou. James landed hard on her butt giving out a short cry of pain.
Seishou was virtually unharmed and bent over to help James to her feet. She extended her right hand to the crying girl. "May I assist you to your feet?"
James reached out for the spirit's hand as she was hoisted to her feet. "I'm s...s...sorry about that. I...uh...wasn't watching where I was going." Her face turned away in embarassment.
'I can read your mind remember and I know why you shed tears. Come, let us communicate with each other. There is much to discuss you and I. Would you wish to be my friend?' Seishou embraced a warm-hearted smile on her face.
James was somewhat puzzled until she recalled where she had met the spirit before. Her mind was put at ease and she nodded, not considering Malachai. 'The beach?'
'The Beach.'

Delia sighed as she wandered her way through the trees. This place was...interesting. If nothing else. She pulled out her journal and wrote as she walked; maneuvering around the trees effortlessly. As she wandered she flipped through her previous pages, eyes flickering left and right. She paused as her eyes fell on a particular note, and then she leaped up into a tree to look deeper into her own text. She curled up onto the tree branch and looked through her words. It was right there the whole time...she thought to herself as she looked over the note. "Oh my god! That's it!" She exclaimed with joy quickly marking the page and leaping from the tree. rushing out of the courtyard towards the libary.

Michael turned about, ready to leave the area. "No thanks. I wouldn't want to use a person and taint my goodness." He began to take a step, but was stopped by Mizo.
"Alright listen. Kiyo, as much as I hate this fact and you will never tell a soul or I will rip you limb from limb, is my sister. Twin actually. Trust me, if you tell her the truth, she'll help you out." Mizo was becoming more and more interested in Michael. There was just something about him that made her want to be around him. "What do you say?"
"I say no." He side-stepped Mizo.
"Wait! Come on! This is the first and last time I have ever tried to help someone. If you won't let Kiyo help you out, then let me. As much I despise angels and goodness, there's just something about your bloody attitude that makes me want to be around. Just give me a chance to help." Her face was full of earnesty.
Michael stared into Mizo's eyes. "Would you like to go out with me. I am not asking you because of your plan but because you seem genuinely interested. Well?"
Mizo's jaw dropped slightly. "Yes."

Michael hugged Mizo lightly, not quite sure of himself or her reaction to the hug. To his surprise, she hugged him back. He held her as if he were holding Jayme again. How he missed her.
Seishou was gliding next to Jayme when she looked over her shoulder to see that Jayme had stopped in her tracks. She followed Jayme's gaze to see Michael holding another girl. Her attention immediately snapped back to Jayme to see the tears welling up in her eyes. In one swift movement she was embracing Jayme, whispering to her that all would be fine.

Jayme begins to sob uncontrollably, forgetting that she is surrounded by people.
Seishou picks Jayme up and moves her into the shade. "Jayme, your sweet smile is all that tis required to win back his heart. Please, just compose yourself and I shall fetch him. Wait here. I shall return shortly." She floats away in her poetic dance in the direction of Michael and Mizo.
Meanwhile, Malachai had been waiting in the shadows for a chance to act his revenge upon Seishou. Michael may take longer, but he could at least destroy her. In a speed unknown to many, Malachai removed the dagger from his belt and dashed to Seishou, stabbing her in the gut. He proceeded to stab her several more times until she lay crippled on the ground, inches from death. "I said I would have my revenge and here it tis. She will be mine. As for you, say goodbye to your precious trees."
Seishou tried hard to fight back, but it was useless, her body was too near to its end and as she breathed her last breath, she whispered, "Kill my body, but never my soul. She will live....with....him...." Her voice drifted off.
Malachai fled the scene in hopes of appearing innocent to his murderous deed. He was unsuccessful. Jayme had seen the entire thing. Her body had frozen in horror, unable to save her friend. When at last her legs could move, she raced to the side of her friend, too late. She clutched Seishou's lifeless body. "No. No. NO!!!" Tears poured down from her face. She couldn't, no wouldn't believe that Seishou had left her. "Wake up!! Wake up! Please Seishou....NO!!!!"

Blood now coated Jayme, but she would not leave her friend.
Michael heard the commotion Jayme was making and released Mizo. His eyes wandered about before resting on the two friends. Without a second thought to Mizo, he rushed to Jayme. "Jayme girl? What happened?"
Jayme didn't even notice him. She just kept screaming and saying no.
Michael grabbed Jayme by the shoulders, slightly shaking her. "JAYME! Snap out of it! What happened? I can't help if you don't tell me."

Jayme's focus slowly shifted upwards to meet Michael's stare. "He...he...he killed her." Her head dropped back down to Seishou's body.
Michael was speechless. He knew exactly who Jayme was speaking of. "Jayme girl. Come. Let her be. There's nothing you can do for her. I'm sorry." He took her into his arms and picked her up. Carrying her, Michael headed for the nurse.
Jayme stared, transfixed on Seishou's dead body. Her only thought was that of Malachai and killing him.

Misty sat underneath the shade of a tall oak tree. She'd made herself comfortable on the soft grass, in between the roots of the tree that had made their way above the dirt. She was leaning against the tree with her eyes closed. She looked very peaceful and content. One would think she were asleep had she not been humming a soft tune. Although she pretty far away from any other people, she was reluctant to sing the words. Misty had come to realize that only certain songs could cause a dilema, but she'd never be able to distinguish them all without a test subject...
But that was out of the question, so Misty had settled for humming tunes and saving songs and instruments for times when she could truly be sure she was alone. She had even specified soundproof walls for her dorm room. It was a shame though, this awful curse that had befallen her at the ripe age of 13. Misty was an excellent musician, probably one of the best for her age in the world, and she sung like an angel. But now, hardly anyone could ever hear it.
Misty opened her eyes and looked back to where the foutain was located. It was much more crowded over there, so she had opted to move out to where she was now and watch from afar. A bittersweet smile came to her face. This place was interesting. It was full of many different kinds of people, some worse off than she, but for the most part they were okay and she was welcome here. Still, it was hard to be so far from home...

Sora relaxed lazily in a tree, his legs hanging down from the branch which he was perched loosely and freely. He'd picked up a habit of loitering in the courtyard from his friend Austin, and was now pretty much the base equivalent of a sloth in his rest periods. He was about to fall asleep when he heard a young girl, humming quietly beneath him.
'When did she?..'
Sora wondered when she'd gotten there, and how he could've missed her. she was slightly short, apparently. and fit well between the roots. which providded a small amount of camoflauge. He listened quietly now, slightly entranced b her humming. He wondered why.. Why wasn't she singing the words? why was she just humming?
...
Whispering silently under his breath, he sat up slightly.
"She's probably a Siren, and thinks it'd be bad to sing here. If i'm right, then she's a sensitive person to have figured out where and where not to sing.."

Misty stopped humming and closed her eyes again. She turned her head away from the fountain and laid back on the tree again. She arched her neck so that her head faced upwards. When she opened her eyes, she was very surprised to see someone on the branch above her, rather than just the treetop and sky. She voiced her surprise with a sharp intake of breath and got up from where she was sitting.
"I'm so sorry. I didn't know anyone was even over here," she said, though it was probably to quiet for him to hear, especially since she was looking at the ground rather than the person she was talking to.
