Raina went into the training Hall, thinking of a song that kind of lead here in the first place. She swore se heard a flute...maybe she was wrong. She's been hearing a lot of flutes lately. Her eyes darted to all the people there, and she sighed.
" Despite my urge to memorize everyone here, it's too much of a task." She went to a small corner in the hall, and pulled out her twin blades. One, the longer one, was theone usually used to balance on her finger. There was a deep hole on her right index finger to prove it.
" Eh. All simpletons. Don't know how to handle true power." She flicked her blades, and the whole corner went down.
" Well, on the bright side, they can control it...I wonder if I should fix that..."

Raina stood pondering over the collapsed corner. Should she fix it, or leave it to the school?
However, this was soon resolved as about nine robots rolled in and set to work.
" huh. Conveniant." She leaned against the wall, watching them work. Then she bgan to whistle.
The ringing sound in the whistle was clearer than normal, and the tune didn't seem possible to whistle that clearly, as it consisted of mostly very low and very high notes. She kept on whistling, the tune a full orcestra in her head.
The fire burning inside of the hearts
Of the many souls within
The identity of many
And the worlds of any
in the minds eye....
Search the world
for a cure
The headaches stop but not for sure
and when the world is a blur...
you'll find yourself back home.
Never been accepted by
the ones you hold so dear
And you never had the heart to tell
That you've always lived in fear.
"...It's clearing out. This might be easier to practice then." Raina leaned foreward, and looked to the corner again. The robots had managed to find all the rubble and they were now puttingit back together.
" Alright..." She stepped foreard to a wooden pole, and drew her swords again.
' That song I keep hearing...it was that, wasn't it.'
crack.
' the song that the caster sang to me when I left. He thought I would come crawling back. he hated me.'
wack.
' my whole family...or those who had adopted me...hated me for my light skin.'
swish.
' It just doesn't make sense why I keep hearing it play.'
CRACK.
Raina looked at where she had been practicing. The wooden pole was in splinters and the metal bar supporting it had been sliced in half.
" Tch."

Next, Suixing was up against Lili. "Ready?"asked Lili. Suixing nodded.She said she was an earth manipulator and herbologist/potionmaker. hmm...Suixing thought.
Lili created a boulder of earth and hurled it at Suixing. Suixing created a water sword (it could slice stuff) and cut up the boulder. "Hmm?"said Lili,"Two can play at this game!" Lili made an earth sword and charged at Suixing. Suixing and Lili had a sword fight for a while.This won't work,thought Suixing, Wait! that sword is made of earth! I hope this works!Suixing turned her hard-water sword back to regular water, still keeping the sword like shape. This time when Lili attacked, Suixing sword got cut, however, Lili's sword was reduced to mud. This is my chance.Thought Suixing. She made a whip from water and whipped Lili. As Lili landed, Suixing caught her in an unburstable bubble of water. "Okay I quit. Good Spar."Said Lili."Thanks, you too," was Suixing's reply. With that, the went back to the rest of the group. Then Suixing got ready for her next spar.

"Okay, that's enough sparring for today," said Ringa,"we'll do more tomorrow." The sun was high in the sky. "We can go train by ourselves now,"Ringa finished.
"thanks for sparring with me Ringa, Lili. I guess I'll go to the Water manipulation room. See ya!"Said Suixing.
"Ano...What about lunch?"Asked Ringa.
"I'll eat later. I have to train now."
Suixing proceeded to the water manipulation room. There she practiced all her water and weather tecniques that involved water. Suixing looked outside and noticed the sun was setting. Looks like I got carried away. I better go get lunch. or dinner....So Suixing went to the dining hall for Dinner.

Mura same stood with her katan unseathed. She had been precticing on wooden dummies almost all day, and getting very tired of it. "This is a waste of time..my sword thirsts for blood." She was just finishing ripping a dummy into shreds, when she spotted a few people moving about. "I wonder if they will provide a challenge.." she said in thought, holding the katana to her face, the blade pointing towards the people. "Is anyone brave enough to offer me a little sparring match?.." she said loudly, hoping to get someone's attention. Her tails twitched, she was getting pretty bored of killing wooden dummies.

Raina looked up, her eyes flashing.
" Fighting will get you killed. It's common law. Everyone is meant to die, but to die withought learning anything is something unforgivable to the killer." She flicked around with her blade.
" Bloodlust gets you nowhere. It's power, and control over that power. Letting it control you, like it's doing to you, is not acceptable." She twitched as she heard the flute again.
" Why don't you...practice the theory of winning on me. I'm sure you'll be satisfied." Raina took lout her second one, and aimed them bolth at Mura. One thing she hated... fighting...
"You're nothing but a stupid little snot!"
" yea, snot!"
" You're worse than the pale!" The little boy twitched under the insluts, refusing to cry even though tears streaked down his face.
" LEAVE HIM ALONE! HE DIDN'T DO ANYTHING!" Theyturned to see the plae, a little girl with the drow's white hair, but a human's eyes and skin. They sneered.
" And if we don't?"
" I'll...I'll kill you!"
" Bloodlust is such a dangerous thing..."

Joy did a triple air kick on the punching bag. Landing on her foot and bending back a little too far Joy grunted and tried again. A bead of sweat rolled down her face,she had been at it from 3 a.m till night. Ella had been smoking 3 packs then,sitting observing Joys training. She knew why she was training,she had been eyeing Mint for a while now and Ella knew that look.
So she was sticking close to see the act,but god knows when Joy would do it,she always liked to be random. Of course it was always actually planned,set, but random to everyone else. Taking another drag she starting yelling at Joy. "Baka!! Keep you hands up!!Damnit someon3 coudl just cut you right through if they block your ******** losuy kicks!!Then your dead!!!Along with me!!Get your head straight you going get us killed!!!"
Joy nodded as she rolled up her black tanktop,showing off a nice tanned skin and flat tummy. She tried it again,this time keeping her hands up like Ella advised,but she still landed wrong. Looking over at Ella hopefully,but the cold hearted killer was busy in her own thoughts. Joy sighed once again,this is how it had been years after years with Ella,who after a while had lost interest in teahcing much on how Joy should fight. She was surprised she even came to watch Joys training. Joy was more of a perosn who picked up expierence and trusted her blood and instincts and reflexes. Bending down she took a deep breath she picked up her mango jucie bottle. Sucking the last few drops from the container she dropped the bottle to the ground carelessly.
She had tied up her hair in a bun of a sort,hair falling every where as little bows were here and there. She looked over at Ella again,wishing to be able to rest in her lap as Ella affectionatly ran her hands through her hair. But no,Ella was ligthing another cig,looking up at Joy her angry red eyes flared up. "I swear!!Get back to work!!Shesh..no ones gonna help you,never will. Now start getting smarter and concetrate..your too childish boucning from one battle plan to another.."

Murasame heard someone yelling she turned to see Joy and a few other girls with her, "Do you mind keeping it down?..your very annoying.." she said in a cool voice. She held Masamune to her side after lining up a few dummies in a zig zag line, she then, with a little concentration sliced through them. One after another they fell apart at a blinding speed, she couldn't use this in a real battle since it wouldn't be as fun. She used her steel fans to clear away what was left of the dummies by using the wind that came from them when she swung them.

This was one of the rare times that Lin Yao wasn't equipped with her Katana. Not that she wasn't afraid of being attacked, au contraire, she was very afraid. Dragging around her katana was only to make her feel safer in Ria High. The dependence grew within the hours, days and weeks--to the point she felt very paranoid and that leavin the katana behind was simply digging in her own grave a tad sooner. That paranoia had to stop now.
There was no one in this world she should really be afraid of at the moment, she knew she had the skills to defend herself very well. Without her katana she always have her hand-to-hand combat knowledge. It was only then she realized, she has held on to her katana too much lately that too concerned of being stabbed in the middle of the night that she has forgotten her main goal; refining her skills. Instead, ever since she has entered Ria, she spent her days being paranoid. She must admit, she felt a bit weak lately, her skills becoming rusty from the lack of exercise. Feeling a slight pang, she unconsciously found herself near the training hall.
Since it was late at night, Lin Yao somewhat assumed that no one would be here. Practicing in peace was always good; you have your mind very focused and it at night, it's cool and dark... it was the perfect moment to train or just to sit around and think.
Her long dark green hair grew a lot longer over the weeks. She let it loose at the moment, running way down behind her knees, somewhat wavy. She was simply wearing a red traditional and sleeveless Chinese shirt, with yellow and golden embroyement and buttons. She wore a pair of white pants, loose. The layer was quite thin, and with the moonlight projecting in the window during the night in these hallways, one can well see her built legs. She had no jewleries on, all her accessories back in her room. With all the garnets off, she felt a bit lighter, walking. She almost felt as if she was floating at the moment, all these accessories and protections were beginning to bug her at night. Her dark green eyes continued to scan the area. Stopping abruptly when she eard a faint yet familiar voice from afar, she narrowed her eyes.
Walking on the tip of her white shoes, she finally saw Joy and Ella. She almost felt like walking away and ignore them, but something sparkd her curiosity, what was Joy doing here, late at night training. Thus, unable to conceal her curiousity, she came up to them, "Isn't it a bit too late for training," she asked with a cold and flat tone.

"It looks like she has everything under control." Chiro said as he watched the fight. "The feeling is fading and this is her fight anyway." Good luck to you. he thought as he turned to leave. "So much has happned today, even if it is shorter. I need a rest. I think I'll check out the springs. I need to clean up after that workout anyway."

Libros went over to the weight room and began to lift weights. After an hour of that he continued on to the heavy bag and train there as hard as he could. He wanted desperatly to spar just to see howmuch he improved but no one was around so he trained and trained some more.

Baron thought for a moment, his tail swishing back and forth, until suddenly, a bright smile appeared on his face...
"TO THE DINING HALL!", He cried out happily, his fist in the air, and immediatly began speeding for the exit...
(Continued at the Dining Hall)
