Welcome to Gaia! ::

Pherein tried to kick back at the group of bullies, but it was very awkward considering the grip they had with her hair. However, she was pretty sure one of her feet connected with their stomach considering the grunt of pain. Good they deserved it. Pherein absolutely hated guys like this… absolutely hated them. They had been picking on her friends and had started bullying Seraph because her friend was hallowed. It wasn’t Seraph’s fault that they had two tails and different eye pupils than a geist/demon hybrid should have.

So Pherein had pranked them, might have even gone a little bit overboard. Only problem was that she hadn’t quite been fast enough in her escape and everyone practically knew to look at her and Kieran first for he really big pranks. Who knew that a small little demon girl needed three boys to gang up on them. They had already pushed her in the mud and she was never going to get this gum out of her hair. Oh… she was going to get proof and get all of them expelled or something.

“You come at me with that pair of scissors and I will bite you… somehow” Pherein snapped. She had been soo proud of her hair. She had finally gotten it to grow to about the bottom of her shoulders. These guys were the worst. Eventually there was some sort of noise, and he sound of adults and they dropped what they were doing and ran off.

Pherein let them, it wasn’t as if she didn’t know where their dorm rooms where and she kind of wanted to sit there. She picked up the red strands and nibbled on her lower lip. It was soo hard to grow her hair out, but she had been trying for the last four years and now… now. Ugh she hated bullies

Pherein looked up at the sound of someone walking towards her. Her first thought was just to pull the sweater up over her head to hide, but she had never really been one to just cower away, even if it would have been easier. Besides considering his next statement it would have been useless anyways considering he had definitely seen the state of her hair.

She looked at the other freshling before deciding the first thing that came to her head wasn’t the most diplomatic to say, and they did look pretty horrified. Pherein didn’t blame them. She definitely had to get cleaned up or something before she dared to meet up with her friends or even worse her twin. Several of her friends would not be happy. With a sigh brushed the strands of hair she had been holding off her lap.

“Well I got into a fight with a bunch of bullies and they attempted a whack job in retribution among other things,” was what finally came out of her mouth.

She took his hand and stood up, glad to be up off the ground. There was a solution in front of her and she wasn’t the type to sit there feeling sorry for herself forever. She had gotten her little me time to think it over. Now it was time to fix things and figure out how she was going to get those Bullies back. She had promised to bite them if they touched her hair. However she needed to fix her hair first.

Melete looked pretty young to be an expert at cutting hair, but then didn’t Kieran and herself get away with half the things they did because everyone thought they were too young to do them in the first place? She made it a habit not to assume things about people. Well at least she tried to, and his hair looked to be very well cared for, or at least what she assumed really well cared for hair looked like. She had been a mostly brush, maybe use nice shampoo and go kind of person.

“No, I definitely can’t. Would you…” Pherein paused. She was never really the type that asking for help was easy…. “Would you help me fix it?”

“Yeah getting the gum out would be wonderful,” Pherein stated. She hadn’t needed to grab anything as she had dropped by her dorm room earlier, but she did follow behind him. Come to think of it had they given each other their name? Pherein wasn’t too familiar with him but then lately Kieran and herself had fallen back into their “Us v the rest of the world” mentality. Well that and there really hadn’t been a place to exchange names. Maybe she’d rectify this later.

Most of the rest of the journey was quiet, Pherein mostly following silent behind him. It would be good to get the gum out. She was a bit worried to return to the dorms because well definitely want to be seen by her friends but she would take the chance. She didn’t like lying to them but then she didn’t want them anywhere near those bullies.

Pherein did make note of the tendrils, but only because the only people she knew that had geist tendrils where Nex and Seraph and well Nex was really silent so you couldn’t really read his tendrils and Seraph used their tails to show emotion more. Oh wait she knew Iah, maybe she’d study Iah more. However it really didn’t matter in the long run. More like passing thoughts as they walked to the dorm room. Luckily they didn’t run into any one so Pherein didn’t have to figure out what to tell anyone she knew why she was following someone while her hair was in this mess.

“Alright” Pherein stated sitting down. Normally shew wasn’t this cooperating but it wouldn’t do to piss off some one that was going to fix her hair. After all the only other person she knew that could fix this was Seraph’s dad, and that would require going to Seraph and that fell into the ‘never telling her friends’ category. Yes it was much easier just to sit down on the bed and watch Melete walk around gathering stuff.

“Um not that I’m aware of” Pherein stated, and if she was, she was pretty sure she wasn’t allergic to anything in hair care products… she assumed. She walked over into the bathroom and wondered where she should sit. Would he have to wash her hair at all, he had placed all of his objects by the sink so obviously the sink was going to come into play. If she sat down on the ground then her head wouldn’t be anywhere near the sink but then the only other part of the bathroom to sit on was the toilet. Well after she nudged the lid down. Well she supposed he could call her over to the sink when he wanted to use it. For right now she supposed sitting on the toilet lid it was.

Pherein looked at herself in the mirror. Her hair was shorter but then she had rather expected that even before Melete had agreed to fix it. Still she was greatful that he hadn’t taken too much. It also wasn’t drastic enough that she would have to fend off questions from her friends, and the best thing was the gum and dirt had been removed. She lightly swayed her head a bit and watched her hair move in the mirror. It would take some getting used to but she kind of liked it, alright she really liked it.

“It’s amazing. You’re a life saver thank you very much” Pherein replied smiling back at him and handing back the mirror. Now all the she needed to do was figure out how she was going to get back at that group of boys… but that was a thought for another day. Right now she was just going to appreciate her hair being saved.
