The Headmaster~
[[ That made me laugh since it's true. xD Unless it's something really really serious, then he's really nice. xPP ]]
Half the period passed before the Headmaster emerged from his office. Inside his room he had taken the time to collect his thoughts and emotions. He would never willingly show worry in front of his students, so he had to be careful to release or control all his distress before choosing to leave.
After closing his door, locking it, and placing a sign (which simply read 'out'), he left the main hallway and headed toward room 2A, on the second floor. Once arrived, he knew there was no one in the classroom and simply walked inside. However, upon reaching the back of the room, he paused and chose to knock on a piece of wall.
"May I enter, Miss Cailbrea?" he asked politely and softly, hoping he had not not startled her.

 The whole frantic air of her attitude seemed to fade a little bit as Amaya smiled up at her, and the woman sighed, her lips outlining into a thin smile in return. I guess I was just freaking out for no reason... she thought, running her tongue along the roof of her mouth in an attempt to calm herself down. She had been punished before for being tardy during her beginning year, the punishments ranging anywhere from loss of points, to having to figure out the task without anyone's help, to staying in during lunch or after school. But none of those things were bad enough to be panicking about, as Ellena would soon be realizing as her teacher spoke to her. Indeed, she had been freaking out for no reason. But having a constantly reeling mind, backed up by not definitely knowing the teacher's methods, what else could she have thought of? Right? Right.
The redheaded teen nodded when 'going to bed before the crack of dawn' was brought up as a suggestion, and a slightly nervous laugh passed through her lips, her head tilting to the side in embarrassment. "I will seriously take that into consideration. And I will from now on, promise!" she said cheerfully, that thin smile becoming truly genuine as she brought her right hand up to be placed in front of her shoulder in something of a scout's salute. Once the instructions were given on what she was supposed to do with the pot that was given to her, she lowered her hand and hummed an 'mn-hmm' before turning around and setting her bag down in the place where she wanted to sit. "Alright, then. I'll be right back!" She gave a small wave and slipped her shoes off, setting them down next to her bag and smiling to herself. It truly did help her sense things within the earth when she was bare-foot, and heels weren't really her shoe of choice when using her powers, but they did look cute. Thankfully today she was wearing leggings instead of actual tights.
From there, she closed her eyes and took a deep breath, trying to find anything in the nearby area that gave a pull towards her energy, wiggling her toes absentmindedly as she focused. Opening her eyes after a moment, she ran a hand through her hair and started to make her way over towards a flowerbed, kneeling beside once she was close enough. Reaching over towards the soil, she wiggled her fingers over the loose dirt before gathering a bit of it into the palm of her hand. She continued doing this until the pot was filled, and then she walked over to her bag, sitting next to the over-sized yellow purse with her legs criss-crossed, the pot of soil sitting in the fold of her legs. She blinked, tapping her nails against the side of her pot and looking up to her teacher, smiling tentatively, signaling that she was ready to be taught.

Ayla looked up from her flame, which had now turned a greenish blue. The knock was a little unsettling, since she knew no-one else had seen her enter, but when she heard the Headmaster's voice, she smiled. "Of course you may Sir, this is your school after all," she replied.
Looking back at her little flame, she upped the size of it, since she thought it was a little too small. The colour changed a little, from the greenish blue it was previously, to a more turquiose blue.

 Amaya - Earth Magic and Ninjutsu
Amaya sat another pot with soil in front of the girls, and sat down in front of her cross-legged. Pulling out a bag of jade tree seeds, she handed the girl three of them and kept five for herself. "Now what you want to do it plant them about six inches into the soil," she explained as she demonstrated but taking a finger and sliding in into the center of the soil about six inches and then covering the seeds gently. Pulling a water bottle out of her coat pocket, she dripped some of the water onto the soil. Setting the bottle down within reach of the girl, she smiled. "You try?" she encouraged the girl to finish the first step. Once the girl would complete the step she would explain the rest. "Now what you need to do, is sense the life within each seed and ask more or less encourage the seeds to grow. You want them to be about five to six tall." Focusing on her own seeds, Amaya began to encourage them to grow. As all five plants began to grow, she began to quickly twist them together with dexterous fingers. until they began to grow as one tree but with a twisting pattern from all the smaller trees. Hers would grow much taller about twenty inches.

Akira giggled as she watched the cocky boy get his a** beat by Kuyki. Akira was extremely fond of her intermediated fire teacher. She was always so confident. Akira longed to be that way. She lost her confidence a while back. Finally when no one else stepped into the circle Akira took a deep breath. "I'll have a go." She said, glad that she sounded more confident then she really felt. Grabbing her hair tie off her wrist Akira tied her long black hair in a messy bun and stepped into the cirle.
Kyuki smiled as she saw Akira volenteer. This was the exact student she had wanted to battle today. In Kyu's eyes she saw how Akira was afraid to let loose with her powers. She always held back when Akira had so much power. The smile got brighter when Akira actually stepped in to the ring. Kyu planned on getting Akira to unleash the power she really held in side her. "Ready?" When Akira nodded Kyuki moved so fast she was almost a blurr. She made a whip out of fire and cracked it towards her student. The whip of flames headed right for Akira. But much to Kyu's surprise she dodged it.
Akira rolled out of the way of the flames heading towards her. She manupiulated her flames into the shape of a gun and shot bullets of flame at her teacher while cirlcing her near the perimeter of the mini arena.
With the same wall of fire she used before Kyu errected it once more as the bullets were fired at her. She could see Aki clearly through the flames. When Akira faltered trying to figure out a way to get around Kyu's wall, Kyuki bolted out and shot a spear of fire at Akira which she dodged at the last second. Kyuki and Akira stood at opposite ends of the circle eyes locked on eachother, breathing hard. "Stop holding back Akira." Kyu said in a matter-of-fact voice.
Akira's temper flared. "No. You don't understand. What if I loose control?" She said between clentched teeth. "No. I won't let anyone get hurt because of me."
Kyu grunted and then faster then Akira could react shot a fire ball at her. It hit Akira square in the chest and she was sent flying almost out of the circle.
Akira clentched her fists and grit her teeth. She was mad now. She stood up and rushed on her teacher. Their swords of flame came in contact noiselessly. They fought for a good 15 minutes.
"LET LOOSE!" screamed Kyuki desperately trying to get Akira to show her true talent.
"NO!" Akira responded.
After another 15 minutes of blocks and strikes and both of the duelers breathing hard and sweating Akira finally let her sword flicker out of her hand. "Fine you want to see my power here." She said the anger in her fueling the power. Akira raised her hand and a wall of flames errected in a circle around her. Kyu's mouth dropped an intermediate student shouldn't be able to errect a wall of flame without useing almost all of her energy but the wall kept rising untill the flames were 20 feet high and still circling around Akira. Then with a push of her hands and a scream the flames were flung forward and hit Kyuki before she could react. The blow knocked the wind out of her. Kyu was sent flying over 30 feet out of the circle. The wall of flames disappeared and Akira fell to her knees panting and looking at her hands. "Are you happy?" She said and then looked up to see her teacher unconcsious 30 feet from the circle. Akira gasped and ran to her. "OH NO!" She screamed. "SOMEONE GO GET HELP!" Akira pulled her teacher into her lap and started to sob. "I told her someone would get hurt." Then everything went black as Akira passed out from the energy she used to raise the wall.
((sorry it took me soooo long to post. I have limited computer usage. If I'm not here just puppet my characters okay?))

The Headmaster~
Upon her assent, the Headmaster entered, making sure that the door closed after him.
"Thank you, Miss Cailbrea. And whether it is my school or not, that gives me no reason to disregard a young lady's want to privacy," he said with an upturn of a mouth's corner. Taking a seat, he observed her firework.
"Excellent control," he praised with a full smile this time before relaxing it and speaking on more solemn matters. "Miss Cailbrea, is there anything you want to discuss - questions or statements - about the meeting you had with Mr. Terre?"

When the seeds were handed to her, the teen reached out with her hand and curled her fingers gently around the offered objects, smiling to herself as she let her hand guide itself down into her lap. Uncurling her fingers around the seeds, she counted them for the sake of counting them, and then licked her lips, satisfied with how this little task looked so far. It should be fairly easy... the woman thought, and decided right then and there that she would like this project. Closing her hand once more in order to make sure that the seeds wouldn't fall out of her hand and onto the ground, she looked up to watch her teacher as she started to speak again. Six inches into the soil, and by the way her teacher placed them, Ellena was guessing that they shouldn't be too far apart or too close together. So, she placed her finger into the soil three times, effortlessly pushing down approximately six inches for each time, and then dropping a seed into each of the holes that were made. She pushed the dirt back into the holes with her index finger, patting the dirt so that it was nice and smooth and whatnot before she would look up at her teacher once more.
Taking the water bottle as soon as it was placed down onto the grass, she placed her index finger on one side of the opening of the bottle, with her thumb on the underside as she tipped the bottle. She dropped exactly two drops onto each little dirt mound, and then she set the water bottle back down, screwing the cap back on and letting her hands pull back to her sides. She waited and watched for a few more moments so that she could understand what to do and how to do it fully before she attempted it. And once she had seen, she watched with slightly widened eyes as the tree began to grow. She had seen such things happen before, of course, most of them coming from Amaya or herself, but this little tree was just... wow. She could practically sense the energy flowing through it, and it was great. She could only imagine what her own little tree would feel like. And there was only one way to find out.
Placing her hands over her little pot filled with soil and seeds, she closed her eyes and took a deep breath, biting down gently on the inside of her bottom lip. She tilted her head forward, her bangs falling into her face before they would drift back up, her hair lifting and billowing dramatically around her head, neck, and face as her magic flowed through her body, and to her hands, then into the soil and seeds. The little pods grew immediately, twisting and winding up and out of the soil and forming the same kind of tree that had been shown to her in the demonstration, though it was a bit smaller of course, within the recommended height range of six inches tall. She parted her hands when she tree had grown tall enough, and her hair fell back into place. She opened her eyes, smiling and giving a victorious little squeak-like noise once she had seen it. She ran her fingers along the trunk of the tiny tree, admiring it silently. "Wow... it's so... me!" she laughed softly. "I love it, this is so uberly awesome!"

Ayla let her flame fizzle out, a small black mark visible upon the wooden floor. Sighing slightly, she sat crosslegged on the floor, looking directly at the Headmaster. "I don't have any questions, since I know what would happen if anyone else found out about them, or if I lost control," she replied to his question.
Taking the two crystals out of her pocket and placing them in front of her, she looked them over, trying to understand why she had been given them in the first place. When she couldn't, she looked back at the Headmaster. "I won't let the school, or you down, Sir. I know what this school means to you, and all the students currently here. But I would like to know one thing: can I store one crystal in your office? I don't want to risk having two on me if I ever lose control, or if someone found out about them," Ayla asked.

The Headmaster~
The Headmaster nodded at her claim to have no questions. This was fine, and he would always be ready for any questions she may have. But he was not ready for what she did next. The Headmaster took a while to respond, and at the conclusion pf that time, he closed his eyes for a moment. When he opened them, he spoke.
"I think it best if you keep them together, Miss Cailbrea," he said carefully, as though each word has been methodically chosen. "Yes, two may be more powerful than one, but the results of discovery are no difficult for the finding of an additional, oddly enough," he said, attempting cheerfulness a bit at the end. However, what she said left a horrible feeling inside of him. With a surprising contrast to the tone that he had just employed, he spoke again.
"I have a question. If you feel you cannot control two, then why assume control over one?" he asked bitterly, more harshness in his tone than he had ever released in front of her. If there was any doubt, he should have them taken from her and by force, if necessary. There would be no danger to the school permitted. 'Perhaps Jacques and I could arrange a method of revealing the crystals without creating a connection to the school. Or, maybe, have them not revealed at all,' he thought. He would not like a student to be harmed, but if she proved hesitant about her control, he would HAVE to take both from her, no matter her compliance.
[[The Headmaster may be a bit maniacal...]]

Amaya - Earth Magic and Ninjutsu
Amaya watched the girl in amusement as the girl began to work on calling the seeds to life. Laughing slightly at the girls outburst, she concentrated on not disrupting the others that were working on trimming their trees. Brushing her long black sleeve from her arm, exposing her pale skin and the tiny scars that decorated her arm. Gently pinching one of the buds from her tree between her fingers, Amaya plucked the bud from the tiny tree that she had grown just moments ago. "Now you have to trim the tree, gently squeeze the bud between two fingers and pull. It does slightly hurt the tree, but its a good hurt," she explained as she began to shape her own tree as she spoke, making it more jagged but in a crescent moon shape. Her hand was steady from years of practice, the shape of the crescent moon seemed to become more defined as she kept working. "just make sure to keep your tree under your control, don't let it get carried away with growing, its suppose to be small."

Jin was patiently waiting for Ms. Montoya to answer his question before he heard something in the distance. It sounded like a scream coming from the other side of the building. Without hesitation Jin turned and ran in the direction he heard the scream. Turning the corner his eyes landed on Akira, laying unconscious on the ground next to Kyuki. The other students merely stood frozen in there tracks. Eyes widened and speechless.
Jin didn't need another heartbeat to pass before he had charged at Akira at full speed. His take off caused a explosion from his feet, tearing a hole where he was standing not more then a second ago. Skidding to a halt Jin knelt down beside Akira and raised her head off the ground.
"Akira!..." Jin could only managed that single word to come out of his mouth. It was pointless to talk to someone and ask if they are ok while unconscious. She felt drained and empty inside. As if her powers were exhausted. turning his head to Kyuki and noticed that she was in bad condition, burned and looked like she had impacted hard.
"Hang on you two." Jin said as he slowly placed Akiras head down and went over to Kyuki. Jin placed a hand over Kyuki, hovering inches from her chest. Closing his eyes Jin began to gather energy energy. Upon opening his eyes, flaring gray from the use of his power, Kyukis body slowly lifted. Under her the air spun wildly to provide the lift needed to support a body. Even if something were to move under Kyuki as long as Jin still had control her body would keep afloat. Once Kyuki was about waist high Jin let his hand fall down to his side and made his way to Akira. Bending down Jin gently lifted AKira in his arms, pulling her close to his body as he looked into her face.
After a few heartbeats Jin turned and began to make his way back inside the school. Kyukis body slowly floated behind Jin as it followed him through the doors and around the corner as they headed to the nurses office.

Akira's eyes fluttered and she felt strong arms around her. "W-What happened?" When she opened her eyes she saw Jin. "JIN!" She almost screamed. "I'm so sorry. I-I didn't mean to is Kyu okay? What have I done?!" She babbled before slowly slipping out of concsiousness. In her dreams she relived the day she killed the only man she ever loved because she lost control. Akira vowed never to let it happen again. She desperately hoped she hadn't done it again.

Jin had the nurses office in sight about less than thirty yards when Akiras voice quickly caused Jin to look down at her. He smiled in relief as she babbled on. Before he could even speak a word Akira slowly slipped back into unconsciousness and laid limp in his arms once more. Mainly glad to know that was was alright and merely fatigued he couldn't help but look back at Kyuki as she floated behind him. He couldn't really tell at the moment. He hadn't gotten a good look at her injuries and didn't want to take the time to do so if it was fatal.
Reaching the nurses office and door slowly opened for Jin and he entered along with Kyuki behind him. He approached one of the first unoccupied beds and gently placed Akira down on her back. Removing a few strands of hair from her face Jin gently leaned down and kissed her forehead lightly. Then he migrated to the next bed, just beside Akira and raised Kyuki high enough for her to glide over the bed and be gently placed down on her back. Kyuki had vital signs so she was plainly alive. Though her recovery might take a while. She looked pretty burned and had some good bruises that would take a few days before they vanished.
But for all he knew it would only take a day or so depending on her level and the level of a healer depending on which one. For now, they would be fine. They both lived and just needed time to recover. Jin grabbed the nearest chair and placed it beside Akiras bed and took a seat. Leaning back he closed his gray eyes and exhaled deeply.
