Matt looked around, wondering if this was big enough for the both of them.
Of course, it appeared a solid enough room, the beds comfortable and the floors clean, the cherry wood closet doors polished to a shine and all that jazz. Whoever owned this island certainly spared no expense on the furnishings, either. He nodded at Shine's choice.
"This is all right, though you weren't exactly the one that picked the room. I'd go down and thank the landlady tomorrow if I were you." He flopped on one of the beds and sighed with a smile. "I suppose I could get used to this..." His suitcase lay next to his current sleeping place, still stuffed with what clothing he brought with him.
"So then... I'm gonna pass out, and you should do the same."

He did as his roommate suggested, but only for a little while, soon he was awake and left the room quietly trying not to disturb Matt's slumber. He looked around a bit, seeing a couple of people enter their rooms and coming to the conclusion that one's roommate was not restricted to the same gender and wondered if Matt was upset he got some guy to bunk with instead of a attractive young lady.
It was obvious to see from his own window and windows here and there in the dorms that a garden was right outside and Shine decided to go see the marvel of man controlled aspect of nature.

It seemed liked forever since he had been in his room having gone to a few classes and walked around the island for a bit including a graveyard with less than welcoming mysterious voices warning him of some unknown threat. He would have to visit there another time and get down to the mystery of it, what could it be that he was being warned of?
He shrugged to himself while getting some clothes from his dresser and then hitting the showers. In his profile it claimed not to have scars that told the true story but he did have some scars from a battle last year which he never explained, he feared a check-up at the nurses office, she would ask questions and he would have to play dumb as to where the wounds came from.

After his showers he had gone to bed and for once his dreams wren't filled by horrid memories from the past. Unfortunately they were focused on the haunting in the graveyard here on the island, though while he was there he didnt seem scared of the place his inner mind said otherwise. The dream didn't have anything outstanding but it was the small things that bothered him, the mist, the unknown sounds, sometimes he thought he felt someone breathing on his neck. It was a bite in the dream on the neck that shot him up from his bed in a fright, he looked around and felt his neck but what happened in the dream didn't really happen to him in real life.
He got up and went to the bathroom for a glass of water. He looked around some still in case what he was dreaming came to life.

Of course, Matt came back from class at that point, tired and ready to get himself some time out. Buncha interesting characters, these people. He figured he'd have a bit of fun next time, try to get that Yu kid to loosen up. For the time being though, he flopped onto his bed and... well, slept.

For the first time since he'd come here, he stared at the syringe he held in his right hand.
Matt read up on the effects of the glowing, yellow-orange goo before him, but he hadn't really tried jamming it in yet. Gene-X, they called it. No idea what the hell that meant, but he'd read that it would bring him far and beyond what he was capable of. Matt turned the syringe over in his hands, trying not to think about what the stuff was made of.
He smirked as he bared his left arm and poked the needle in, watching the stuff enter his system. No need to think, just... just...
His eyes widened as his blood boiled. Or at least, that's what it felt like. He gritted his teeth as the room blurred, everything copying itself time and time again. The syringe dropped to the floor with a clatter as he doubled over where he sat, eyes squeezed shut. "Sssssshit!"
He groaned as his insides turned to liquid fire, then something worse... and then he had to lie down, because he couldn't take it anymore. Maybe if he passed out, everything would be a hell of a lot better.
Maybe.
Matt got into the most comfortable position he could manage, and not even ten seconds later, the veil of sleep consumed him...

-Day 2-
Matt's eyes opened several hours later, having missed anything else for the rest of the day. Hell, he'd missed the rest of the day, period. Matter of fact, he'd missed half of this one, as the digital clock next to his bed faithfully attested to. Matt groaned and tried to get up... but found himself back down on the bed again as the blood rushed to his ******** me sideways with a screwdriver."
He gritted his teeth, remembering what caused this in the first place. He still felt like he'd been cooked in the sun for a few months and his insides were no longer there. Of course, the fact that his stomach protested for lack of food contradicted that, which gave him a bit of peace.
Just a little, though. He still felt like s**t.
If this was the price of some extra abilities, he'd have let someone else have 'em. But hey, it'd be over soon... right? Hopefully before class tomorrow, because if it wasn't, he was screwed...

Shine had been silently observing him up to that point, going over to his roommate and smiling a little, fighting off his memories to talk to his friend. Shine had been in the room since Matt had returned, getting some much missed relaxation he lacked without the proper bed before.
"Do you need anything from the cafeteria?" He asked, hoping he wasn't going to curse at him for disturbing him or something though Shine hasn't done anything really before to cause such a outburst from him.

Matt chuckled as he opened his eyes to look toward Shine. "You sound like I'm gonna eat you instead." He looked back up at the ceiling. "You didn't do anything. The junk in that needle did this. I damn sure hope whatever it was will be worth all this..."
He turned toward Shine again. "Food would be great. Get something for yourself, too."

-Day 3-
The fever broke.
Yeah, just like that. He was pretty much okay when he woke up. No more pain, no more shakes. Matt took a shaky step out of bed, wondering if he'd have soemething nasty happen to him on the way out. The experiment was successful, and once both feet were on the ground he stood... slowly. Yeah, no head rush.
Matt looked at the arm he'd punched the needle into, and found that even the place where he'd poked himself had healed. Okay, good. Solid. He took in a deep breath of air and headed for the bathroom to change his clothes. Five minutes later, he walked out with a fresh pair of everything, including a pair of faded blue jeans, his favorite basketball shoes, and a a steel gray, short-sleeved t-shirt with the Tapout logo on the front.
Matt shivered. Whoever left the window open had picked the wrong time to do it. Much colder now, getting close to November. He closed the thing before digging into his suit case again for his leather bomber jacket, black in color. Once he retrieved that and slid it on, he smiled and headed out the door.
New day, new class to take. And he never felt better.

Shine had gotten them some food but before long he had left the room, seeing that Matt was calming down and deciding he didn't need someone to watch him just to make sure. Some strange things were happening on the island and Shine was often a curious person, so he headed out to the classroom to see if anything would happen there.

Shine had finally arrived back at the dorms after what seemed like a endless series of battles, unconsciousness, and recovering in the hospital. Everything seemed plain and unimportant at first after something like that, who cares about hunger or comfort, if the light was on in the room or not, it didn't matter at the moment those things would have to slowly regain their value and Shine had to get accustomed to battling lifestyle so he wouldn't see things like this after each time, after all this was a fighter's academy.
The package had been waiting for him and he took it inside, now setting it on the bed and opening it. He examined the syringe and wished it came in pill form but it didn't. He waited for a moment instead wondering how such a common thing could have so many possibilities to become, from controlling fire to becoming a vampire and many in between.

It felt like forever since he'd actually entered this room.
But here he was, behind the door again, sitting on his bed with a fresh shirt, a new pair of jeans, and a letterman-style jacket with his name on the back. He watched as Shine looked at his syringe, wondering what the hell he was gonna do about it.
He had to throw the warning in, if Shine hadn't seen in on the box.
"That s**t's gonna ******** you up good for a bit. You okay with that?"

"I have to become more powerful.." He quickly replied, a oddity for him, he looked up at Matt who had lasted far longer than himself in the battles. He hoped Matt understood somehow, that Shine didn't want to be weak which meant he couldn't save people or protect them.
He injected it into himself, looking back at Matt wondering when it would take effect. A unusual affect happened, things got dry, his sheets on the bed started to decompose slowly into sand. He looked at his hands, they were so dry, the sand which was starting to grow around him moved towards Shine like he was god.
"Well..This is a new one.." He mumbled having not seen anything describe in the introductions to styles back in the classroom. Finally he started to get a fever.
