Welcome to Gaia! ::

Vanya looked towards the teacher who seemed to be addressing her and another girl as well. 'Apparently the lock down is more serious then just a drill. What on earth could be going on?' She nodded to the teacher mumbling a "Yeah... whatever you say." before standing up and brushing the grass off her clothes. The situation peaked her curiosity and she really wanted to know what was going on, but figured it would be a lot easier just to do as she was told for the moment. She didn't really care to be labeled as one of 'the bad kids' this early in the game. Turning back towards the dorms, she made her way back the way she came, this time heading towards the Quartz Dorm.

Voldemort was on his way back. He was finally getting hungry and he was going to eat some small snacks first before going for the bigger ones. As he was going, he saw a gigantic morsel and he was overcome with the need to eat it. He wanted it so bad. He was tall! He was bigger than all of his snacks! He wanted this! Voldemort wanted this and he lunged for the tall delicacy. Greedy noises came from him and he grabbed the boy in his claws and held him in the air, ready to feast on him.

No wait, not yet. He wanted to hold it up to the sky with one arm and pose while "DUNA DUN DUN!" music played in his mind since he acquired a new item. Not to mention he wanted to show off his catch.

Tarik was turning the school upside down looking for students. He finally resorted to looking outside and as he was making his way out of the school garden, he heard shouting. He frowned and started to run towards the noise and saw a large hideous creature about to eat a really tall man.

Why wasn't that man fighting back? Perhaps it was a student and he is not yet very god at it. Well, Tarik can show him how it's done! "So it was you who took the students!" Tarik shouted as he dashed towards the monster pulling a sickle sword out form his belt and slashed at the creature's arms. It made a deep cut and the creature screeched in alarm, dropping the boy in the process.

Tarik made for the boy and attempted to catch him as he fell.

((If I derp.... bap me. =w=" ))

My heart is like the ocean, it gets in the way
So close to touching freedom, then I hear the guards call my name...






Angela made it outside, blinking in the bright light. She looked behind her and placed her hands in the tunnel, lighting up the wall of the tunnel so the others would have light on their way out. She grimaced, rubbing her hands down her jeans as she started to go find help for the injured boy. Ugh. Disgusting. She was about to call back to the others when she heard a screech and a familiar wail. And...was that Tarik shouting? She looked up just in time to see large, disturbing creature running toward her, cradling its arm. She froze for just a split second and it bowled her over, knocking her out of the way as it made for the tunnel she'd just left. She went flying, its claws raking across her back and side as it shoved her out of the way.

Hitting the ground with a cry, her head cracking against a stray tree root, Angela lay stunned and trying to figure out what the hell just happened before finally giving up and taking a little nap right there. Seconds later, everything went black as she faded into unconsciousness.

Ian nearly clapped in amusement when he saw Voldy lunge at a wandering student and hold him up like he was a prize of some sort. It was just absolutely adorable. It almost made him want children of his own. Almost. ... He was sure his fiancee wouldn't approve anyway. While he was distracted by his thoughts and wondering what Annalie would and wouldn't approve of, he spotted some bigshot hurting the poor baby and stealing its prey!

He was about to shout at him when its mother did that for him... rather dramatically. Amusing. Instead of helping, he returned his attention to Voldy, watching as it ran away and trampled over a student. Oh my. Was she dead!? He immediatly "rushed to her aid", being sure to give the baby some distance just in case it might turn on him. He knelt down by the unconscious girl, sniffing and unsure if she was still alive.

He did notice another student there, and did see her throw something at the poor frightened child, but a dead body was more important. "Most people are humane enough not to hurl heavy objects at children," He informed her as he lightly rested one of his claws on the side of the unconscious student's neck, checking for a pulse. It was there, but... maybe he could eat her anyway. So, he chomped on her arm, hoping she wouldn't wake up.

Angela was hurtled out of unconsciousness by screaming pain in her arm, and woke up to something sinking its teeth into her. She really didn't stop to check what it was and her vision was somewhat blurry anyway so half on instinct, she swung around and slammed her right hand down on the bridge of Ian's nose, letting out a nasty jolt of electricity in the process, before bringing her elbow around to slam it into his face as well, screaming in anger and pain as she wrenched herself away from whatever was biting her, feeling its teeth leave long gashes in her left arm.

She scrambled away from her assailant, clutching at her injured side and arm as she lurched to her feet and spun around. She realized that what was attacking her was not, in fact, the creature--it was off to her left. Instead, she realized the person who had bitten her was a teacher. She had seen him around but hadn't paid all that much attention despite his rather freakish appearance. Because, well, this was Rosentale. She tried to be open minded.

She did, however, draw the line at biting. Well...at least, when it drew blood and was unsolicited. And came from a freakish, unattractive, creepy old guy.

It really was remarkable that she'd stayed in control of herself as long as she did but having a teacher try to chew her arm off, after being kidnapped and kept in a cage by a monster was about as much stress as she could handle in a single day. Her magic had been sleeping peacefully for weeks but the sudden surge of adrenaline woke it from its long nap and she felt it nudge her ecstatically. Play?

Angela didn't stop it this time. There was a sharp crack and the air around her sparked to life with electricity, the smell of ozone hanging over the area heavily. Her heart gave a twinge of protest but she ignored it. Instead, her magic made a playful beeline for Ian, a white ripple of electricity speeding toward him, tearing up the ground in its wake.

Romane was put into a horrible, horrible mood after that run in at the detention room earlier with her 'coworkers'. It felt as if the men had shrugged off everything she said completely and, furthermore, that crazed schizophrenic had decided to insult her before she could get a word in! She was left to her own devices as they went off to work – ha! As if they actually worked. Romane hadn't seen any of them as she went through the school to try to locate the missing students, the only indication of them doing anything at all had been when Tarik decided to send the announcement – a whole five minutes after they had decided to do it! What had he done?! Walked the entire way to the office, pause to get a snack, and then continue on his merry way? He should have finished it in thirty seconds – no, twenty!

While the woman silently criticized the work of her coworker to further justify to herself why she should be the leader, she found herself outside of the school to round it and find – monster. A disgusting, tall creature causing a commotion around the front of the school. She stopped dead, taken by surprise by the creature that was.. attacking? Tarik was there – he was attacking it, which meant it was a threat to the school security and he was trying to take over her position as leader by not calling her! Ugh! She would have to tear him apart for thinking that he was even capable of handling a creature like that! She rolled her eyes as she drew her gun and cocked it, hurrying over to where the creature could be in a better line of sight, aim, and – oh. She pulled the trigger just as she realized that Tarik was also in her line of sight. ..That bullet was probably going to hit him. Romane shoved the gun back into its holster, turned on her heel and hurried off to the sidelines where she just noticed a man obviously being injured.

“What – you?” Romane snorted as she saw that the one who was obviously in pain was the same man (ABEL) that she had seen in the teacher's lounge defacing school property. She made a face as she knelt, maneuvered an arm over her shoulder, and hoisted him up, “I don't know what happened, but you should get that girl to safety. If I see she is harmed at all, I will personally see to your punishment.” She threw that at the.. ugh, teacher? (IAN) He didn't look as aggressive as the monster, so she could only assume he was on staff. In any case, she started to lug Abel off towards the school to try to get him to the infirmary.

[Exit Romane and Abel to the infirmary? 8D]

Christine was a little startled when Sylth was thrown to the side by the creature. But she managed to scramble to her feet and run to him like any concerned wife would, throwing herself against him while sobbing. She buried her face against his shoulder, but whispered," Are you alright?" between the fake tears.

The loud crack and flash caught her attention and she saw Angela having a face off with...one of their group. "Idiot.." she muttered. They were supposed to be stirring up drama over the monster, not fighting with the students. And of course Abel threw himself between the two of them. Christine couldn't figure out the purpose of that unless it was a suicide attempt.

It was official. Everyone at the school was insane.
