pokemaster9243: Zefus was walking calmly along a road, letting the cool breeze hit his face. He walked with worn boots, nearly falling apart from overuse. The boy looked around, hoping to find something of interest.<go>
rp_erika17: The soft blue sky was ignored as some strangely dark clouds rolled in. The wind picked up, causing some panic on the city below. A young girl rode one of the dark clouds, sighing with boredom. Her dull attitude suited her frown as she stared at the sky she was blocking. Another sigh escaped the girl as she sat up, "Well... might as well look for the guy." She pulled out a deep blue stone attached on a necklace. She closed her eyes, "Alright... um... Crystal of Wind. Zephyr of Truth. Find our Guardian..." The necklace started to glow and lifted from her form. It shown a light, leading her below the clouds.
"...Fantastic. He's in the Human World, isn't he?" The girl stood up, moving her bright blue hair from her face. She looked to where the beam was leading her and she jumped from the cloud. As she neared the people below, her frame became transparent and simply vanished with the wind. She hovered above the crowd, watching the stone suddenly go dim and limp. She stopped, tapping it, "What? Oh, come on now... Work!" The stone crumbled away. The girl's jaw hung open, "Son of a... Fine! I didn't need you anyway!"
She touched down on the ground and looked around. She watched the humans pass her, until one caught her eye. He was perfect. Just the one she was looking for. With a fangirl-ish-like smile, she drift over to him, watching his movements like she was on safari, and he was a rare animal. Her eyes shimmered, "Yes... yes!" She took out a small trinket and grew it out into a key-like sword, "Alright... Here we go..." She slipped a rainbow prism in the sword's hilt and aimed it up to the man. "One... two... three!" She let the sword charge and the sword sparked, sending an almost rainbow-like bolt of lightning to the man. <go>
poke_master9243: Zefus looked and saw the bright light. "Stop! You can't do that!" He ran into the light, taking it instead of the man it was directed at. <Go>
rp_erika17: Maitre gasped, "No!!" Her jaw hung open, "No... no... no... Please tell me that just didn't hap- Wait... He could see me?" She stared at Zefus in slight awe. <go>
poke_master9243: The light somehow went into his body as Zefus walked to the girl. "What in the world were you thinking?! You can't go around attacking people like that!"<Go>
rp_erika17: "...You... You can see me?..." She gulped some, staring at him. <go>
poke_master9243: "Of course I can see you! Who wouldn't be able to?" He cocked his head to the side, looking at her. "You're pretty weird."<go>
rp_erika17: She grabbed him and jumped to the top of a three story building, throwing him on the ground. She walked off, pacing a little, "This can't be.... He wasn't the one I saw... But he can see me... I'm going to get in sooo much trouble when they find out." <go>
poke_master9243: He got up and brushed off the dirt. "What the hell are you going on about?"<Go>
rp_erika17: She pointed the sword at him, "Language, little boy..." <go>
poke_master9243: Zefus gulped, the point of the blade just inches from his throat. "What are you talking about though?" <Go>
rp_erika17: She snarled, "...I have no choice. It has to be done..." <go>
poke_master9243: He leaned back and laid down. "Care to explain what's going on? What was that light? Why were you attacking that man? Why did it matter that I could see you?"<Go>
rp_erika17: "I'm not from this world... That light was unimaginable power, created for the chosen one. I was attacking him because he was the chosen on, and you aren't suppose to see me because I cloaked myself!" <go>
poke_master9243: He lifted his arm and rubbed his head. "Another world? Power? Chosen one? What the heck are you?!"<GO>
rp_erika17: "I guess I have no chose... Why can't you be a little cuter?" She whined, lifting her blade up. <go>
poke_master9243: He glared at her, nostrils flaring. Lightning crackled down his arms and he jumped. "WHAT THE HELL WAS THAT?!?!"<go>
rp_erika17: "The power... duh..." She brought her blade down, striking him, sending them both to her home. She returned to her school uniform, sighing. "Take a good look... This is your home now." <go>
poke_master9243: Zefus took a step back. "What... what just happened? How did we get here?"<go>
rp_erika17: "Please don't embarrass me with those stupid questions." She started to walk off. <go>
poke_master9243: He chased off after her. "Well, I won't ask if you'll explain."<g>
rp_erika17: "It's hard to explain. I don't even know." She stopped and turned to him, "All I know is that we need your help to survive. If you fail us... we became extinct..." She teared up, "...and I finally got my hair free from split
ends!" She whined. <go>
poke_master9243: "We? You mean...there are more like you?" <go>
rp_erika17: She gave him a blank stare. "No... I live in his huge castle all by myself." She smirked a little. <go>
poke_master9243: Zefus grinned and grabbed her hand. "Well, gimme a tour. If it's gonna be my new home, I don't wanna get lost." <Go>
rp_erika17: She blushed, "He-hey... Let go." <go>
poke_master9243: He laughed hard, nodding. "Where first?"<Go>
rp_erika17: "I'm serious... Release me." <go>
poke_master9243: He grinned and let go. "There. Happy?" Zefus flashed a goofy smile. <Go>
rp_erika17: She glared at him, lifting her hand up and him with it. A small tornado of wind danced under him, making him levitate in the air, "...Yes. Extremely happy." <go>
poke_master9243: "HEY!!!" Anger boiled and lightning crept over his skin once more. "Why is this happening?" <Go>
rp_erika17: "You need to control your anger... You can do a lot more than lightning. If you practice and study hard enough, you will be the Master of all the Masters." <go>
poke_master9243: Taking her words into consideration, he closed his eyes, focusing his mind. "If you're right then let's try this...." A pathetic sized cloud appeared over her head, dropping rain drops lightly on her.<go>
rp_erika17: She stopped her wind and jumped back, "Stop that!" <go>
poke_master9243: He fell hard on the ground and opened his eyes. "That hurt..." <Go>
rp_erika17: "This uniform is dry clean only. You've ruined it!" <go>
poke_master9243: "How was I supposed to know?" He went to her. "It only barely got it anyway. Look." He pointed where there was the smallest speck of water damage. <go>
rp_erika17: She pushed him away, "Just... leave me alone." <go>
poke_master9243: "Hold it! You kidnap me, take me to some weird place, and tell me to leave you alone? Not gonna happen. If you don't want to explain things to me, then just send me back home!"<Go>
rp_erika17: "Look... You're not the one I wanted here in the first place. You just played the hero into something you can't handle, little boy!" She turned
around, snarling.
"Now now, Mai-mai. Show our guest a little bit of manners... if people of your class have those." A boy walked out. His hair was a smoky grey, and his eyes were a fierce red. He flashed a smile, "Welcome to De Temps Academy, my lad... Make yourself at home." <go>
poke_master9243: "At least someone has the decency to tell me where I am..." he grumbled. "Anyway, I'm Zefus. You are?"<Go>
rp_erika17: "My name is Fumare. You shouldn't associate with riff-raff like Little Miss Maitre, unless you just like the filthy life of a commoner."
"You giant ass...." She growled. <go>
poke_master9243: "Well, now who's not watching their language." He smirked, looking at her. <go>
rp_erika17: She glanced at him, moving her hand to smack him with a gust of wind, but Fumare snapped his fingers, making a small flame, "Uh-uh... I doubt any of us will like to be BBQ'd, my dear."
Maitre glared at him, sighing and turning away, "Fine... Have fun with your new pet, Fumare... I never liked him anyway." She stormed off. <go>
poke_master9243: "Kinda hot when she's angry, huh?" He laughed and shook hands with Fumare. <go>
rp_erika17: He smiled, "Indeed. She's just jealous of me..." <go>
poke_master9243: "Oh? Why's that?"<go>
rp_erika17: "No idea. Maybe because I have so much potential and moved up a class, when she barely made it herself. Bad grades, you know... She's just a slacker who blames her problems on someone else. It's sad, really." <go>
poke_master9243: "Not to change subjects, but would you mind explaining this place to me, more? I've only just been here for maybe ten minutes."<Go>
rp_erika17: "Oh... of course. This is the De Temps Academy. You see, we each have a gift. We come here to find out what it is, and learn to harness it to it's fullest. I, for example, can do fire.... As you saw firsthand, Maitre can do the wind, since she's full of hot air anyway. There are a few Masters, and I happen to be one of them." He smiled. <go>
poke_master9243: "Master? Wow..." A thought crossed his mind. "Is there currently a Master of Lightning?"<Go>
rp_erika17: "Yes. She just happens to be my girlfriend." <go>
poke_master9243: "Oh!" He blushed heavily. "Do... do you think either of you would mind if she taught me? As far as I know, that's what I can do. But if there's any more, it's faint."<go>
rp_erika17: "She's fairly new to it, I'm afraid.... not much of a teacher anyway." He sighs. <go>
poke_master9243: "Dammit..." Sparks raced across his fingertips. "That's getting really annoying."<go>
rp_erika17: He watched him, "Just calm down. There are some older students you can learn from..." <go>
poke_master9243: They stopped. "Sorry... I guess I'm just so overwhelmed."<go>
rp_erika17: Fumare flipped his hair a few times, "I should be getting to class. Lunch is almost over." <go>
poke_master9243: "Well, can you show me to a teacher or someone who can help me for now?"<go>
rp_erika17: He nodded, "I might as well. You need to start your studies too." <go>
poke_master9243: "Thanks." He gripped his arm, rubbing a spot softly. <go>
rp_erika17: Fumare grinned, walking off with his hands in his pockets. "Come along now." <go>
poke_master9243: He nodded, going after Fumare, the pain subsided. <go>
rp_erika17: Fumare passed a tall boy with his nose in a book. The boy stopped and looked at Zefus, his cold eyes staring almost through him. <go>
poke_master9243: "What's with that guy?" <go>
rp_erika17: Fumare stopped and looked back, cursing some.
"Fumare... who is this boy?"
"He's... well... Maitre brought him here!"
"I see..." He narrowed his eyes. "You should get to class. I'll deal with this boy now." <go>
poke_master9243: Zefus gulped. 'I got a bad feeling bout this...' Unable to shake off his feeling he just stood there. <go>
rp_erika17: Fumare gulped as well, backing up and running off to class.
"Boy... please come with me." He walked off, closing his book. <go>
poke_master9243: "Erm... Okay..." He walked slowly, looking around. For some reason, anyone he saw just stared at him. <Go>
rp_erika17: The tall boy opened a door, "Please enter and have a seat." <go>
poke_master9243: 'Maybe he's a Master...' Nodding, he quickly found a seat and sat down. <go>
rp_erika17: The office he was led to a ice cold. The tall boy entered, closing the door and replacing his book on a shelf. He moved to a window, opening it, letting the warm air flow in. He flicked at a little chime, letting it ring out a dim tune, finally sitting himself down in a chair, staring at Zefus. <go>
poke_master9243: "H...Hello, sir."<go>
rp_erika17: He just stared at Zefus. Suddenly a big gust of wind came in and Maitre appeared, "What?"
"Who is this?"
She turned, gasping when she saw Zefus, "I... I don't know... Never saw him before in my life!"
"Maitre... don't lie to me. Your mission was to bring us the chosen one... He is not that person."
She looked to the floor, "I know... I'm so sorry, Glace. He got in the way." <go>
poke_master9243: Zefus sat there, paying intent focus on the conversation, hoping to pick up something that he might find of use. <go>
rp_erika17: "Got in the way?" Glace got up, nearly yelling, "Your aim was off. There is no way of missing!" "I know... I don't know what happen..." "Do you want us to die off? Is that it?" "No! I-" "Maitre, I'm ashamed of you... I truly am. Our one chance for a new life, ...and you miss. Get out." "But..."
"OUT!!" Glace's office shook a little as he yelled. Maitre shook too, out of fear. She was completely pale, but somehow moved back to the window, trying to lift herself up. She looked back at the tall boy, "...Please forgive me."
"...never." He spoke low. She closed her eyes painfully and slipped back out, disappearing into the wind. <go>
poke_master9243: Unable to contain himself, Zefus stood up, glaring at
Glace. "You can't punish her for my mistake! She didn't know that I was going to run in front of it! How dare you treat someone like that!"<go>
rp_erika17: "Stay out of this, human. I'll deal with you next." <go>
poke_master9243: Lightning bristled up his arms again. "Human is what I once was! Now I have no clue what I am!"<go>
rp_erika17: "You will be returned to your home, unharmed, as soon as we strip you of your power." He sat back down. "Just relax." <go>
poke_master9243: "No." He dashed and leaped out the window. <go>
rp_erika17: Glace gasped. "No! We're on the fourth floor!" <go>
poke_master9243: Zefus realized as soon as he looked down, but it was too late. He braced himself for impact. <og>
rp_erika17: There was a thundering boom. It hit Zefus and slowed his drop, setting him gently on the ground. Glace heaved a sigh, "Thanks, Don. I'll be right down!"
Another tall boy flashed a smile at the other, "Okay... Have a nice run." He laughed. <go>
poke_master9243: "Who're you? What'd you do?"<go>
rp_erika17: "My name is Donner... You can call me Don; everyone else does. I'm a student teacher here. Master of the Thunder." <go>
poke_master9243: "Thunder? Then you must know how to do Lightning, right?"<Go>
rp_erika17: "A little. Lightning is so much more violent... but beautiful." He sighed with a smile. <go>
poke_master9243: He grinned, but it soon faded. "I can't let Glace get to me..." <go>
rp_erika17: "Why not? He's pretty nice." <go>
poke_master9243: "I wasn't supposed to get these powers..."<go>
rp_erika17: "Oh... Yeah. I assume he's pretty mad..." He crossed his arms. <go>
poke_master9243: "Yes... Very."<go>
rp_erika17: "I do not want to be you right now... If you want, just run for it. I'll try to calm him down." <go>
poke_master9243: He nodded and dashed off, hollering out a 'thanks' over his shoulder. <go>
rp_erika17: Donner chuckled a little and headed for the door he was sure Glace will pop out of some time soon. <go>
poke_master9243: He kept running for several minutes, finally stopping under an oak tree. "I think... I'm far... enough... away..."<go>
rp_erika17: There was a scream nearly, followed by an "Oh, Mai... I'm so sorry. Please don't cry." <go>
poke_master9243: "Maitre!" He gasped. She may have been rude, but she was also responsible. He headed swiftly in the direction of the scream. <go>
rp_erika17: Maitre and some other girl was near a fountain. The girl was trying to pull water out of Mai's uniform as Mai was twist her skirt, trying to wring the water out. <go>
poke_master9243: "M...Maitre?"<gO.
rp_erika17: She looked up, putting her skirt down. "Get away..." <go>
poke_master9243: "I just wanna say sorry." <go>
rp_erika17: "Sorry? Sorry! I'm not the most hated person at school." <go>
poke_master9243: "Just wanted to say it... sorry... bye..." He walked off, his head hanging. <go>
rp_erika17: The girl with Mai ran after him, "Bye? I don't understand... How do you know Maitre? Are you her secret boyfriend? I promise I won't tell." She whispered. <go>
poke_master9243: "It's... complicated. Her life's probably ruined because of me..."<go>
rp_erika17: "Oh... You got her pregnant?!" She gasped. <go>
poke_master9243: Zefus chuckled. "No, but thanks for the laugh."<go>
rp_erika17: "Well... my name is Sophie. If you ever want to visit, let me know, and I'll take Maitre shopping and buy her a pretty dress." <go>
poke_master9243: He bowed lighty. "Zefus."<Go>
rp_erika17: "That's a nice name... It's almost like Zephyr." She giggled. <go>
poke_master9243: "Heh.. I suppose it is." He smiled. "Maybe that's what I'll go by from now on."<go>
rp_erika17: She smiled, "Oh. That's just wonderful." Maitre walked up, "Let's go... Stop flirting."
"I'd never do that to your boyfriend."
She stopped, "My... what?" Her eye twitched. Sophie smiled, "Boyfried... You two are going out, aren't you?" <go>
poke_master9243: He looked at Maitre. "I didn't say anything like that."<go>
rp_erika17: "She assumes things way too much." Mai sighs. <go>
poke_master9243: "Heh... Oh... by the way," he said, with a look at Sophie, "I'm Zephyr."<go>
rp_erika17: "What are you talking about? You told me your name was Zefus." <go>
poke_master9243: "Was... Sophie picked it out." <go>
rp_erika17: She smiled, "...She would do that." <go>
poke_master9243: Zephyr smiled. "So, uhm... Glace is kinda mad at both of us..."<go>
rp_erika17: "Yeah.... my brother can be a pain in the ass at times." <go>
poke_master9243: He nearly choked. "Brother?!"<Go>
rp_erika17: "Yeah... He's three years old than I am. He thinks he sooo smart."
"He did graduate the top of his class." Sophie mumbled. Maitre sighed, "Yes... and he just has to stay at school to make sure I do the same. It's just so annoying." <go>
poke_master9243: "I see... So he's basically here to overshadow you? Sounds stupid to me..."<gO>
rp_erika17: "It's like he's in some secret cult..." <go>
poke_master9243: "Maybe he is. Anyway, unless I heard Sophie wrong, you two are going shopping?"<Go>
rp_erika17: Mai blushed, "Shopping for...?" She looked to Sophie. "Well... I thought if you not-boyfriend was coming to visit, you'd like to look cute." Maitre gave her a shut-up-while-you-still-can stare. <go>
poke_master9243: "Well, erm... Do you mind if I tag along?"<go>
rp_erika17: "We are not going shopping..." Mai growled, walking off. <go>
poke_master9243: "Can you at least find a way for me to sneak back in the school? I don't think Glace would be pleased to see me."<go>
rp_erika17: "You can stay in our dorm!" Sophie blurted out. Mai tripped over her own feet from what she heard, "What!?" <go>
poke_master9243: "N...No, I couldn't... I do need a way to learn though... He wants me stripped of these powers."<go>
rp_erika17: Mai looked at Zefus. "...If he does that to you, he will do it to me as well." <go>
poke_master9243: "Then let's stay away from him."<go>
rp_erika17: She nodded. "...If you do want to hide, you can stay with us. I need to hide as well." <go>
poke_master9243: "Perhaps we can make an area on campus instead of having to rely on the dorms?"<go>
rp_erika17: "The dorms are safer..." <go>
poke_master9243: "If you're sure..." He looked up at the sky and down at his hands. "Just a thought, but maybe... you two can teach me?"<Go>
rp_erika17: Mai took Zefus' hand and pulled him away. <go<>
poke_master9243: "Hm? What's wrong?"<go>
rp_erika17: "...You heard what Glace said, didn't you?" <go>
poke_master9243: "About stripping our powers?"<Go>
rp_erika17: "About my mission." She looked away. <go>
poke_master9243: "Yea... What about it?"<Go>
rp_erika17: "Part of my mission is to train you... or rather the real chosen one." <go>
poke_master9243: "But then, wait... he didn't even see you. If he's the chosen one, why is it I could see you and he couldn't?"<go>
rp_erika17: "I don't know... This is strange to me too..." She sat down. "Maybe I was meant to fail." <go>
poke_master9243: "Or maybe I supposed to be the chosen one?" He sat down beside her. <go>
rp_erika17: "I really don't know..." She sighed. <go>
poke_master9243: He held her hand. "You'll find out, I'm sure."<go>
rp_erika17: She sighed.
Fumare laughed from a balcony, "Ladies and gentlemen... The sponsor of our apocalypse... Miss Maitre." He clapped, chuckling. She glared up at him. <go>
poke_master9243: "Think I'll get in trouble?" He glanced at his sparking hands. <go>
rp_erika17: "Yes..." She said quietly "...But go ahead." <go>
poke_master9243: He grinned and gasped as a firm bolt of electricty shot from his hands, swerving around, aimed for Fumare.<go>
rp_erika17: Fumare held his hand out, blazing a little bit. "Do it... I dare you." <go>
poke_master9243: He smirked. "Gladly." Zephyr pushed the bolt further with his mind, wincing. He spoke softer, talking to Maitre, "Is it supposed to hurt when you first use it?"<g>
rp_erika17: "You are human... You could die." <go>
poke_master9243: "Oh well... If I die... I die defending your honor." He pressed harder, using all his mind's capacity to push the bolt on further, making it stronger. <Go>
rp_erika17: "What are you waiting for? A formal invitation..." Fumare laughed. <go>
poke_master9243: He growled and a spark went up his body, racing in his blood. "That's it..." He grinned and shot another bolt, the two colliding and merging, going faster. <go>
rp_erika17: Fumare grabbed both, spinning around, making Zefus' bolts stronger and sending them right back to him. <go>
poke_master9243: He raised his arms in defense, but it didn't matter. The bolts hit him directly and knocked him to his back. <go>
rp_erika17: Mai gasped, "Zefus..." She crawled to him, but a ring of fire burst up around him. Fumare jumped down, "No... let him finish this. He was all talk a moment ago... What's the matter? Shocked?" He threw his head back, laughing. <go>
poke_master9243: Zephyr grinned. "Not at all." He aimed an electric lasso at Fumare's feet and jerked hard. <go>
rp_erika17: Fumare yelped, falling to the ground. Mai laughed, trying to hide it. <go>
poke_master9243: Quickly, he pounced on Fumare. "Don't bother her again." Zephyr sent a punch and it collided with Fumare's cheek. <go>
rp_erika17: Mai flinched in pain, knowing Fumare's never been hit like that before. She couldn't help but laugh at it. <go>
poke_master9243: He got off the bully and headed to Maitre. "Let's go..." <go>
rp_erika17: She nodded, "That was really brave..." <go>
poke_master9243: Zephyr smiled. "Best not to be around in case Glace shows up for now." <Go>
rp_erika17: (I thought it was Zefus...) "Then we'd better run." She grew a worried look, seeing him and Donner running for them. <go>
poke_master9243: (Can be either...) He nodded and took off at a slow trot, making sure both girls were with him. <go>
rp_erika17: Maitre didn't run. Neither did Sophie. They knew the rules. Glace got to Mai and pulled her arms behind her back, telling her something. <go>
poke_master9243: "What... what are you doing? Let's go!"<Go>
rp_erika17: Glace glared at him, shoving Mai into Donner's arms and running after Zefus. <go>
poke_master9243: "I don't think so." He dashed off fast, using speed he never knew he had. <go>
rp_erika17: Glace was right behind him. With a swift move, he flung a thin icicle at Zefus, sinking it into his pant leg, nailing him to the ground. <go>
poke_master9243: The boy squirmed, the icicle having slightly grazed his leg. "What do you want?"<go>
rp_erika17: "Your capture..." He walked up, panting a little, "Now come quietly." <go>
poke_master9243: "Wait... first I want you to answer a question..."<go>
rp_erika17: "Just one? Fine." <go>
poke_master9243: "Maitre was sent after the chosen one... he didn't see her, but I did...
Why is that?"<go>
rp_erika17: "I'm not sure. It could be her horrible cloaking skills, or your dumb luck." <go>
poke_master9243: "Dumb luck that no one but me noticed her?"<go>
rp_erika17: He grabbed Zefus, pulling his arms behind him and freezing them together. "Don't make this worse..." He pulled him to Mai and Donner. <go>
poke_master9243: "And what if you chose wrong, huh? What if the man she was assigned wasn't the chosen one? What then? You can't pretend that it's not the least bit coincidental that only I noticed her."<go>
rp_erika17: He simply cupped his hand over Zefus' mouth, freezing it shut. "Come on, Don... To my office. They can spend a little time in the Cooler." Maitre gasped, pulling away, but Donner picked her up and threw her over his shoulder. <go>
poke_master9243: Lightning bristled over Zefus's body. "Mmmf!!!" He tried speaking, but to no avail. <Go>
rp_erika17: Glace pull Zefus to his office and went in. He pushed him to an empty corner with a fancy design on the floor and moved the ice around his feet so he couldn't move. Donner set Mai down beside Zefus, "You sure about this?" "Yes..." He answered coldly.
"Glace, please! Don't!" Mai cried. Glace backed up, pressing something. Slowly the floor Zefus and Maitre were on started to sink down. Soon, they were at the bottom of a deep pit. Glace look down at them. With a few motions the ice on their feet and on Zefus' mouth melted away.
"Have fun... and if you speak above a whisper, well... You'll get the point." He smirked, walking away, having the opening seal up and sharp icicles of ice start forming. <go>
poke_master9243: Zefus gave up resisting. There was no use it seemed. <Go>
rp_erika17: She slid down the wall, sighing. The icicles shook a little from the sound. "...I wonder how long he'll leave us in here." <go>
poke_master9243: The ice around his mouth melted and he looked at her. "Is there anyway out?" he quietly whispered. <go>
rp_erika17: "No... If we make any sound, one of those icicles will drop. There'll be a chain reaction, and we could die." <go>
poke_master9243: He stayed quiet for a long time, thinking. "Water. That's it..."<go>
rp_erika17: "Water? What are you talking about?" <go>
poke_master9243: "You can create wind, right?"<go>
rp_erika17: "Yeah..." <go>
poke_master9243: "Can you make clouds as well?"<go>
rp_erika17: "I'd need water... Sophie and I have been practicing that, but getting the right combination is hard." <go>
poke_master9243: "Dammit..." He closed his eyes, thinking once more. "I am so stupid... Ice
is water, only frozen... If Glace can make ice, maybe you can use it in that form as water?"<go>
rp_erika17: "You'd need to melt the ice, ...but this office is completely made of ice. He can feel when something is wrong. He can even hear us talking, so any escape we plan, we're telling him." <go>
poke_master9243: "I've got an idea in that case..." He slowly formed a spark in his hand. <go>
rp_erika17: "Don't!" She gasped, shaking the spiked ceiling. <go>
poke_master9243: He stopped. "We gotta get out though..."<go>
rp_erika17: "Zefus... Just face it. We lost. I really messed up... I'm so stupid." <go>
poke_master9243: "Lightning gives off heat, Maitre... If I can melt one icicle, you can create a rain cloud, correct?"<go>
rp_erika17: "...I don't understand." <go>
poke_master9243: "Water poured on ice will freeze, but the more constant it is, the harder freezing is, which in turn will melt the ice. If we can create a good-sized rain cloud, we can melt the ice and get out. <go>
rp_erika17: "Glace will felt that and trap us inside the ice." <go>
poke_master9243: "It may give us enough time for you to transport us out though... How did you do it before?"<go>
rp_erika17: "With my Storm Saber....But don't tell. We're not suppose to use them yet." <go>
poke_master9243: "Storm Saber? What's that?"<go>
rp_erika17: "That sword you wre so afraid of." <go>
poke_master9243: "Ohh... Wait.. That's how you use your power?"<go>
rp_erika17: "In a way..." <go>
poke_master9243: "I see... Well, where is your saber now?"<go>
rp_erika17: "In my pocket." <go>
poke_master9243: "Can you reach it?"<go>
rp_erika17: "My hands are frozen together." <go>
poke_master9243: "Here. Let me try." Though his hands were frozen as well, he tried as hard as he could to retrieve the Saber. <go>
rp_erika17: She groaned, "Please, stop..." <go>
poke_master9243: "Fine... But what are we supposed to do?"<go>
rp_erika17: "Just sit here and wait... and try not to freeze to death." <go>
poke_master9243: He sighed softly, worried. "There has to be something..."<go>
rp_erika17: She shivered. Her short skirt didn't help matters. The floor and walls were made
of ice. <go>
poke_master9243: Zefus looked around, intently observing the room. Perhaps he could find another way out. "Are you sure Glace would strip our powers?"<go>
rp_erika17: "I doubt he can actually take mine, but he'll lock me up, maybe in a block of ice until he finds a way." <go>
poke_master9243: "It's all my fault... If I hadn't run in the way...",go>
rp_erika17: "No... It's hard to explain, but I did kind of liked you." <go>
poke_master9243: "Hm?" He turned to face her. "Are you serious?"<go>
rp_erika17: She nodded some. "You're the first to stand up to Fumare.." <go>
poke_master9243: He grinned goofishly. "Well he was being a royal pain in the ass."<go>
rp_erika17: "I can't disagree... I just wish Donner didn't see." <go>
poke_master9243: "Why's that? Are they friends or relatives or something?"<Go>
rp_erika17: "Brothers." <go>
poke_master9243: "Oh... I see... Well, either way, he deserved what was coming."<go>
rp_erika17: "Even so, if you make Donner mad, you make Glace mad, and if Glace is already
mad to begin with, he will show you no mercy."
poke_master9243: "Is he always as angry as he is today?" <go>
rp_erika17: "No... He's really very nice." <go>
poke_master9243: "Well, it's obviously something about me..."<go>
rp_erika17: "No... I'm the one that screwed up." <go>
poke_master9243: "Even so... It seems something about me being here is bothering him...
Wouldn't he have sensed it or something if you'd chosen anyone besides the chosen?"<go>
rp_erika17: "All we have to go on is a silly old prophecy. 'Follow the Stone's light to the One you seek...' A few parts are missing, but we followed as close as we could." <go>
poke_master9243: "The Stone?"<go>
rp_erika17: "I had it, until it crumbled away..." <go>
poke_master9243: "When?"<go>
rp_erika17: "Before you got your power." <go>
poke_master9243: "Something about all of this is odd..."<go>
rp_erika17: "Yeah...." <go>
poke_master9243: "What if they chose wrong? What if he wasn't the chosen? Is that
possible?"<gO>
rp_erika17: "I don't know!" She yelled. The ceiling shook. Maitre gasped, staring up at it. <go>
poke_master9243: Zefus covered Maitre with his body, preventing her from harm in case. <G>
rp_erika17: She blushed and looked away, "Thanks... You're really warm." <go>
poke_master9243: He smiled softly. "Body heat keeps you warmer than you'd think."<go>
rp_erika17: She hesitated a little, and brushed her lips against his cheek, giving him a soft kiss. <go>
poke_master9243: His cheeks went deep red in blush. Heat emnated from his body slightly. <Go>
rp_erika17: Maitre rested her head on him, "I'm so tired..." <go>
poke_master9243: "Then take a nap. I'm sure you need it."<go>
rp_erika17: She fell to her side, closing her eyes. <go>
poke_master9243: He sat there in quiet, contemplating several ideas while Maitre rested. "I
know there has to be a way..." <go>
rp_erika17: Hours passed. Maitre had fallen into a deep sleep. She was snoring softly, mumbling something in her sleep. <go>
poke_master9243: Zefus listened to her mumblings, hoping something of use would come out. <go>
rp_erika17: The pit shook. A part of the wall opened up and Glace walked out, "Take her to her dorm..." Donner walked out, picked Maitre up, "Yes... And the boy?"
"I'll deal with him..." He smirked. Donner rolled his eyes and left. The door sealed back up with ice. <go>
poke_master9243: "Well... Alone at last. What are you waiting for? Kill me now... that's what you want."<go>
rp_erika17: "No... I recieved higher orders. They want me to test you." He narrowed his eyes. The room sudden grew into the size of a stadium. "If you are truly meant to have those powers, I want to know. If you can beat me, you can go free. If not, you've become my little lab rat." He cracked his knuckles. "Humans are always good for a laugh... They can't handle the cold that well... Let's see how well you do." <go>
poke_master9243: Zephyr grinned and closed his eyes, focusing his mind. Then they shot open. "Then let's do this." <go>
rp_erika17: "You first..." <go>
poke_master9243: "No... I can wait." <go>
rp_erika17: "Very well..." He smirked, starting a gentle snow on the arena. <go>
poke_master9243: "Hah... That the best you got?"<Go>
rp_erika17: He laughed, "Yes... This is my best technique. Your turn?" <go>
poke_master9243: "Gladly." He took his knowledge of what Maitre had said and tried to
create a cloud, watching a pathetic-sized puff of cloud form in front of him. <go>
rp_erika17: Glace grinned, "Helping me out, are you? I think you just want to lose." <go>
poke_master9243: "Not at all..." He cast a spark of lightning into the cloud and grinned as it darkened. <og>
rp_erika17: "What were you planning? To make your own little storm to counter mine? I know about your little light show trick... I've taught beginners before... Lightning is heat, heat melts ice. In theory, you should win..." He held his hand out, turning the could ghostly white, "But, clouds produce more than lightning, my boy... To master ice, you have to be a water master, which I also am. I don't prefer water, you see... It's too forgiving, too flexible. I'm more of an ice man, myself." He pulled his hand back, making the cloud disappear, making the flurry he produced before become a light snow. He grinned, "Oh come now... The powers you were given come with more than lightning..." <go> (ugh... can you say lengthy anime monologue? -falls over-)
poke_master9243: "I've had them for a day and I'm supposed to understand them all?" He thought of the brief kiss Maitre had given him and his body heated up again. "Perhaps..." He shot a bolt of lightning into the sky to see how strong it would be. <go> (Lolz)
rp_erika17: "Are you done playing around?" <go>
poke_master9243: "Playing? Oh come on, I'm just... experimenting." <go>
rp_erika17: He narrowed his eyes and ran to him, sending his knee into Zefus' stomach. <go>
poke_master9243: He grunted, but stood up again. "I won't stand for how you treated
Maitre..." A fireball appeared in his hand, and he slung it at Glace. <go>
rp_erika17: Glare dodged. He quickly wrapped a hand around Zefus' neck and pulled him down, sending his knee into his stomach over and over. <go>
poke_master9243: "Agh... Stop... it... now!" A fiery shield covered Zefus's body suddenly. His eyes widened at the new power. <go>
rp_erika17: 'Good... It's working.' Glace smiled, sending one final kick into Zefus before jumping back, "Fire? You've downgraded from lightning." <go>
poke_master9243: Zefus ran at Glace, punching and kicking, the shield still up. <go>
rp_erika17: Glace jumped back a few times, watching his movements. <go>
poke_master9243: Finding the power within him, he pulled down the shield. 'What more can I do?...' <Go>
rp_erika17: Glace saw his opening and sent a fist to Zefus' face. <go>
poke_master9243: He fell back onto the snow, his nose bleeding. "That's it..." He pulled his
fists together, lightning sparking wildly over them. Suddenly gauntlets formed, still
sparking. "Now this could work..."<go>
rp_erika17: He cracked his knuckles again, "Can you please be a challenge? I'm not even using my powers." <go>
poke_master9243: "I'm only sixteen! What more can you expect?" <go>
rp_erika17: "16?... She's gave the powers to a mere child?!" The snow grew to small hail, smashing into everything, but Glaze, of course. <go>
poke_master9243: "I am NOT a child!" He sent a severe shockwave at Glace. <go>
rp_erika17: He slapped it away, wincing a little as his hand tensed up. <go>
poke_master9243: One after another, he didn't let up. Constantly, he strengthened them. <Go>
rp_erika17: Glare swatted them away with the same hand until it couldn't take any more and shattered. The next wave that came his way hit him hard and sent him flying across the room. <go>
poke_master9243: Zefus was panting now, fueled with adreniline. <go>
rp_erika17: Glace grunted, his left arm swinging carelessly to his side. "Congradulations...
you've broken my arm." He held out his right arm, forming his Storm Saber, "Now I get to break yours." <go>
poke_master9243: "Not a chance." He brought his fists down on the ground, sending an enormous shockwave at Glace again. <go>
rp_erika17: He cut through it, running for Zefus. <go>
poke_master9243: He sent fireballs and lightning bolts, running backwards to evade Glace. <go>
rp_erika17: He knocked each one away, suddenly disappearing. <go>
poke_master9243: "Wah?!" Stunned, he tripped backwards and fell. <Go>
rp_erika17: The snow stopped. It was quiet. <go>
poke_master9243: "You're still here, I know you are..."<go>
rp_erika17: "Get up... child." <go>
poke_master9243: "I TOLD YOU I AM NOT A CHILD!" He stood up slowly, though. <Og>
rp_erika17: "Little boy..." He chuckled. It seemed to echo throughout the room. <go>
poke_master9243: "Where are you?!"<go>
rp_erika17: He appeared behind Zefus, sinking a small blade of ice into his side, "Right... here." <go>
poke_master9243: "Ahh..." He winced heavily at the blade. "I won't... let you... do this..."
He burst into flame and grabbed Glace by the throat before throwing him hard. <go>
rp_erika17: Glace melted away. It was a decoy. <go>
poke_master9243: "Show yourself you coward!"<go>
rp_erika17: Glace dropped down, bringing his Saber across Zefus. <go>
poke_master9243: He winced and fell to the ground. "Why... are you... doing this?"<Go>
rp_erika17: "To test you... but now, for fun." He laughed, kicking Zefus in the chest a few times before stomping down on it. <go>
poke_master9243: "AHHH!! I will not fail... I will WIN!" He used what power he could to create a firm dome surrounding Glace and he made from fire and lightning, closing it tighter every second. <go>
rp_erika17: Glace looked at it, glaring at him, "What are you doing!? This is not a game!" <go>
poke_master9243: "Then stop! I'll keep on until you surrender." He shrank the dome more, proving his point.<go>
rp_erika17: He held the blade to Zefus' neck, "Your enemies will not stop just because you ask of them." <go>
poke_master9243: "As you wish..." He shrank the dome dangerously close to Glace's body.<go>
rp_erika17: The sword disappeared as Glace yanked Zefus up and threw him against his own shield. <go>
poke_master9243: His body hit it and he grunted, sealing it smaller still. <go>
rp_erika17: He dropped Zefus and took a step back, "Do it..." <go>
poke_master9243: "Fine..." He closed the dome on Glace's body. <go>
rp_erika17: He grunted, using his power to neutralize it as much as he could. <go<>
poke_master9243: Zefus stopped it and made it end. <Go>
rp_erika17: Glace gasped for breath, stumbling back. He was drenched in sweat, staring at
the floor. <go>
poke_master9243: He sat down, waiting to see what Glace would do. <og>
rp_erika17: The sweat crystalized, "Get up... Don't insult me with childish laziness." <go>
poke_master9243: "No. I refuse to fight anymore."<go>
rp_erika17: "If you lose, you belong to me... remember?" <go>
poke_master9243: "Then so be it... I won't fight any more. I want to learn these powers the right way... not have to learn them in battle." <Go>
rp_erika17: He narrowed his eyes, "Fight, or die. Those are your only two choices." <go>
poke_master9243: "Then kill me. Kill off one more. I doubt you'd even care..."<go>
rp_erika17: He dropped his sword, "Why are you so stubborn? Is this how you'll react on the battlefield?" <go>
poke_master9243: "No..." He stood up and turned around. "Go on then... Kill me."<go>
rp_erika17: "This is a battle, child. I am your enemy. You possess the power to save us all, and you want to give up? This isn't a game, little boy. You can't just give up and go home any time you'd like." <go>
poke_master9243: He clenched his fists. "You think I don't know that?"<go>
rp_erika17: "I have no idea how a child's mind works. I assume there's something about candy, or comic books in there, but that's all I'm willing to assume." <go>
poke_master9243: Zefus whirled around and shot a fireball directly at Glace. "Shut up"<go>
rp_erika17: He moved out of the way, "...Childish." <go>
poke_master9243: "Fine... You want a fight, let's fight. I won't give up this time." Hate and anger filled him and lightning crawled on his skin. <go>
rp_erika17: (omg.... it's 08-08-08... ha!) "Tell me, little boy, are all humans like this... or just the children?" <go>
poke_master9243: (lolz. I just realized that too) "I am NOT a child!" He stomped his feet and sent a crack in the earth towards Glace. <go>
rp_erika17: He looked down. "You broke my ice... How rude." <go>
poke_master9243: 'Great... even more surprises.' He shot lightning at Glace again, hoping to find a weakness besides containment. <Og.
rp_erika17: He jumped back, "I'm getting a little bored now. Maybe I should have killed you." <go>
poke_master9243: He closed his eyes and focused strongly. 'Power... Power... I have Power...' <go>
rp_erika17: He straightened up, and walked to Zefus. <go>
poke_master9243: Opening his eyes, he created a fireball, enlarging it every second. <go>
rp_erika17: He stared into it, "Why do you use fire?" <go>
poke_master9243: "Fire is one of the only powers I know I have. How am I supposed to beat you when I keep finding new things?"<go>
rp_erika17: "You're just like Fumare... Both childish as ever." <go>
poke_master9243: His hand turned into flame and Zefus grabbed Glace by the throat. "I am NOT like Fumare."<go>
rp_erika17: He stared into his eyes, "Child... ish." He grabbed Zefus' hand, freezing it. <go>
poke_master9243: "Go ahead. I don't care." He took his other fist and punched Glace in the face. <Go>
rp_erika17: He grabbed his other hand, starting to freeze it as well. <go>
poke_master9243: Fire rose up on his hands and arms. <go>
rp_erika17: Glace yanked Zefus down, plowing his knee into the boy's stomach. <go>
poke_master9243: Despite the pain, Zefus stayed standing and laughed a little. "I won't back down this time." He formed a dome again. <go>
rp_erika17: He gritted his teeth, pulling Zefus down to the ground, 'I need to knock him out.' He sent a foot across Zefus' face. <go>
poke_master9243: The boy hit the ground hard and stay there. "I... won't... give up..." He closed the dome quickly, bringing it close in no time. <go>
rp_erika17: Glace continued to send blows to Zefus' head. <go>
poke_master9243: With the last bit of power he had, Zefus closed the dome and passed out. <go>
rp_erika17: Glace grunted, passing out on top of him. His uniform was mostly burnt off and into his skin. <go>
poke_master9243: Hours passed and Zefus woke with a headache. He felt warm, so he assumed he wasn't in the dome. "Where am I?"<Go>
rp_erika17: Mai suddenly appeared around his neck, "You're ok!" <go>
poke_master9243: "Maitre? You're here?"<go>
rp_erika17: "You're in the hospital wing. You've been out for a week." <go>
poke_master9243: "A week!"<go>
rp_erika17: She nodded. "Yeah... What happened with you and my brother?" <go>
poke_master9243: "Uhm... We fought..."<go>
rp_erika17: "I know... but what happened?" <go>
poke_master9243: "We just battled... He said that he was supposed to test me."<go>
rp_erika17: "I think you tested him. I've never seen him that bad before." <go>
poke_master9243: "How bad is he?",go>
rp_erika17: She look to the bed next to him. "The doctors said both of his arms were
broken. There were even fractures on his legs and rips. His uniformed was burned into his skin... He's been in a coma ever since he passed out." <go>
poke_master9243: "I... did all that?"<Go>
rp_erika17: "I don't know. I think it's one of the best fights he had in a long time." She smiled some, "He seems to be stuck in a good dream." <go>
poke_master9243: He chuckled softly, his ribs hurting. "How long have you been here?"<go>
rp_erika17: "Since you arrived. I've missed so many classes..." <go>
poke_master9243: He held her hand. "You should have gone to class." <go>
rp_erika17: "They excused me because Glace is hurt." <go>
poke_master9243: "Well, that's better. Hey, what came of Fumare and Donner? Are they alright?"<go>
rp_erika17: "They're fine. Donner usually keeps me company at night. He was a little concerned about Glace." <go>
poke_master9243: "I can't believe what happened..."<go>
rp_erika17: "Don't worry. I'm sure Glace is fine." <go>
poke_master9243: "I think I nearly killed him... but I backed off..."<go>
rp_erika17: "Zefus... Don't worry." <go<
poke_master9243: He looked at her eyes. "How can you say that? I feel horrible about it..."<go>
rp_erika17: She kissed his cheek again. "Really. I know my brother. He loved it." <go>q
poke_master9243: He blushed heavily. "If you're sure." <go>
rp_erika17: She nodded. "Positive." <go>
poke_master9243: "Well, alright." He grunted as he tried to sit up. "Did anyone say if I passed?"<Go>
rp_erika17: "Well... you both were out cold. Glace needs to decide that." <go>\
poke_master9243: "Knowing him, I'll have failed..."<go>
rp_erika17: She got up, "Zefus. Anyone that could have lasted that long against my brother should pass." <go>
poke_master9243: "Maybe... There was so much that I found that I could do..."<go>
rp_erika17: She smiled, "When I woke up, I was told you were going to be tested.. I was a little nervous." <go<>
poke_master9243: "I was scared as soon as he said it... To think I had to fight him..." Zefus shuddered. <go>
rp_erika17: "You may be tested again." She looked away. <go>
poke_master9243: "Hopefully I'll be ready for it next time..."<go>
rp_erika17: She nodded. Sophie came in, "Mai-Mai, what do you want fo- Oh.. Zephyr's up."
<go>
poke_master9243: He smiled. "Hey, Sophie."<go>
rp_erika17: She waved. Mai stood up, "Zefus, do you mind if I go to lunch? I've been missing
them to stay with you, but now since you're all better..." <go>
poke_master9243: He chuckled. "Sure. Go ahead. Hey, if you can, bring me back an apple or something, alright?"<go>
rp_erika17: She nodded, "Just rest, please." <go>
poke_master9243: "Okay." He laid back down slowly, closing his eyes. <go>
rp_erika17: She giggled, and her and Sophie walked out. <go>
poke_master9243: He couldn't sleep, so, with pain, he rolled to his side, keeping an eye on
Glace's bed. "To think that I did that..." <go>
rp_erika17: The door opened and Donner walked in, going to a chair beside Glace's bed. "Hey... It's me. If you can hear me, please wake up..." Fumare came in, "Hurry with this rubbish. I'm hungry." <go>
poke_master9243: "Donner? Is he gonna be alright?"<go>
rp_erika17: Donner turned around, "...You hurt him." <go>
poke_master9243: "He made me... I had no choice..."<go>
rp_erika17: "There's always a choice!" <go>
poke_master9243: Zefus sighed and turned to his other side. "I never wanted to fight..."<go>
rp_erika17: Fumare laughed, "It's against the rules." <go>
poke_master9243: "It was a test..." <go>
rp_erika17: "He means him. Fighting him was against the rules." <go>
poke_master9243: "But... Glace told me that I was supposed to fight him as a test..."<go>
rp_erika17: "He's not a student." Donner got up. <go>
poke_master9243: "Well, I didn't know that I wasn't supposed to fight him..."<go>
rp_erika17: "So... are you this wild at your own school?" Fumare smirked. <go>
poke_master9243: "I never went to school before..."<go>
rp_erika17: "So you're a wild animal?" Fumare continued. Donner pulled him back, "That's
enough." <go>
poke_master9243: "No... We just never had the supplies to make one..."<go>
rp_erika17: "So, you are stupid." Fumare laughed. Donner yanked him back, "Behave
yourself." <go>
poke_master9243: "I'm far from stupid. Just because we didn't have a school didn't stop me from learning."<go>
rp_erika17: Donner sighed, "Go to lunch.." He shoved his brother out and shut the door. <go>
poke_master9243: "He always like that?"<Go>
rp_erika17: "Unfortunately. He doesn't like to lose." <go>
poke_master9243: "One day he will... Everyone does..."<go>
rp_erika17: "I can't lose him." <go>
poke_master9243: "I doubt you will... You'll live with him forever, I'm sure..."<go>
rp_erika17: He sighed, "You caused a lot of damage." <go>
poke_master9243: "I never meant to... If I had known what I was capable of at first, then it
would have been different."<go>
rp_erika17: He walked to a window. "It's hard..." <go>
poke_master9243: Zefus tried to stand up, but to no avail. "I still don't get it though..."<go>
rp_erika17: "Don't get up." <go>
poke_master9243: "I can't, anyway..." He sighed, twiddling his thumbs. <g>
rp_erika17: "There's something out there..." <go>
poke_master9243: "What do you mean?"<go>
rp_erika17: "Can't you feel it? It's so thick." <go>
poke_master9243: "No... I can't..." He sighed again. "Donner? What are the students here
being trained for anyway? Glace said something about going extinct..."<go>
rp_erika17: "This was a happy school at one time. We have abilities. We have to learn to
control them..." <go>
poke_master9243: "I get that... But why is it so urgent to find this "Chosen One"?<go>
rp_erika17: "One of our classmates didn't take it serious. He always took short cuts, and it eventually consumed him. When Glace and I both started, it was the year they allowed just anyone to join, powers or not. Some people just wanted to understand what we do." <go>
poke_master9243: "So, you find the chosen one, then what?"<Go>
rp_erika17: "It is said that he will help us..." He got quiet, looking away. <go>
poke_master9243: "Help you do what?"<go>
rp_erika17: "His name is Fonce. He's the same as you..." <go>
poke_master9243: "What do you mean, 'the same as me'?"<go>
rp_erika17: "He didn't like that the Headmaster allowed others in. When he graduated, he killed him, leaving us open for an attack. That's when we tried to hunt you down, or... the Chosen One." <go>
poke_master9243: "To kill Fonce..."<go>
rp_erika17: He looked up at him, "...You have to." <go>
poke_master9243: "Me...?" He blinked with wide eyes. <go>
rp_erika17: "If you don't, he'll kill you. You are the biggest insult to our kind." <go>
poke_master9243: "What do you mean? How am I an insult?"<go>
rp_erika17: "You are a human. Powerless. And you suddenly have the same power he has."
<go>
poke_master9243: He closed his eyes and hung his head. "Then I will fight."<go>
rp_erika17: "It's good that you do." <go>
poke_master9243: "I only wish I was better..."<go>
rp_erika17: "You can get better." <go>
poke_master9243: "I mean my body... I can't even stand up right now."<og>
rp_erika17: He smiled, "Just rest." <go>
poke_master9243: "Maitre said the same thing..." <g>
rp_erika17: "She's smart. I'd listen." <go>
poke_master9243: "Maybe you can make some sense of it... But for some reason, Maitre
wasn't seen by the person that was picked as the chosen... Nor by anyone around. Only I saw her... any idea why?"<go>
rp_erika17: "Maybe you are meant to be our Savior... It's just strange that we did know." <go>
poke_master9243: "When I'm better... Will you try to teach me thunder?"<go>
rp_erika17: "Maybe after a few more lessons." <go>
poke_master9243: "Alright. Do you know if I'll have to be tested again?"<go>
rp_erika17: "Not until Glace wakes up." <go>
poke_master9243: "I'll have to fight him again?"<go>
rp_erika17: "He decides if you pass or fail." <go>
poke_master9243: "I hope he wakes up soon... I feel bad that I did so much..."<go>
rp_erika17: "I'm rather impressed." <go>
poke_master9243: Zefus looked up at him. "Really?"<go>
rp_erika17: He nodded, "Of course." <go>
poke_master9243: "Why's that?" <Go>
rp_erika17: "Glace is one of the strongest here. He could have ended it quickly and not give
you a chance, but he did." <go>
poke_master9243: "Oh..." A slight sense of pride welled up inside of him. He laid down again and looked up at the ceiling. "Any idea how much longer I'll be kept in here?"<go>
rp_erika17: "Maybe another day or two." <go<
poke_master9243: "Ugh... I want to go outside..."<go>
rp_erika17: "Maybe you can. I don't know how long your stay is." <go>
poke_master9243: "Is there someone I can ask?"<go>
rp_erika17: "Some one will come after lunch." He checked his watch, "Oh, man... I'm going to miss it." <go>
poke_master9243: "Okay. Well, see ya later Donner, and thanks for the talk."<gO>
rp_erika17: He smiled, "See ya later as well." He walked out of the room, being greeted by
an irrated Fumare. <go>
poke_master9243: "Savior of theirs... My that would be cool. But what he said about Fonce..." Zefus shook his head and closed his eyes. "I must and will defeat him."<go>
rp_erika17: Not long after Donner left, Mai came back with some food wrapped up in a silk scarf. "I'm back." <go>
poke_master9243: His eyes opened and he greeted her with a smile. "I'm glad to see you again."<go>
rp_erika17: She pulled a chair to his bed side and placed the scarf on his bed, "I didn't know what you liked." She pulled the knot tying it together and the scarf fell open. Inside were a few sandwiches, some halfway crushed chips, and some brownies. <go>
poke_master9243: "I'll eat anything right about now. He took a sandwich and nearly shoved the whole thing in his mouth. <go>
rp_erika17: She pulled out a couple apples from her bag, "I didn't forget." <go<>
poke_master9243: After swallowing down the bits of sandwich, he grinned. "Thanks, Maitre... It means a lot to have you with me."<go>
rp_erika17: She smiled, "Well. It's been a week since you last ate. I figured you'd be hungry." <go>
poke_master9243: He laughed and took an apple. "A little over a week, really... But that doesn't matter." Zefus took a bite of the apple, smiling at all the tasty juices. <go>
rp_erika17: "So... what did you and Don talk about?" <go>
poke_master9243: "Well, he told me about Fonce and all that..."<go>
rp_erika17: She got quiet, looking away. <go>
poke_master9243: "What's wrong?"<go>
rp_erika17: "We're not allowed to talk about him." <go>
poke_master9243: "Oh... Please, don't tell anyone that he did..."<go>
rp_erika17: She nodded. "It's ok. You needed to know." <go>
poke_master9243: "Yeah... So, what are you guys, technically? You all look human..."<go>
rp_erika17: "...I've heard a lot of things." <go>
poke_master9243: "What do you mean?"<go>
rp_erika17: "Freaks. Monsters. Outcasts.... Those that don't understand call us a lot of
things." <go>
poke_master9243: "Just ignore them..." <go>
rp_erika17: "It's hard to. They outnumber us now." <go>
poke_master9243: "Outnumber? But we're all human, aren't we?",gO>
rp_erika17: She sighed, "No... I don't think so.. I don't even know anymore." <go>
poke_master9243: He held her hand. "Don't worry... They just don't get it.."<go>
rp_erika17: She got up, "I... I really should get to class. I've been out for so long." <go>
poke_master9243: He nodded. "Maybe later I can come and find you."<go>
rp_erika17: She smiled some, "Yeah. Enjoy your lunch." <go>
poke_master9243: He loosened the grip on her hand. "See ya later."<go
rp_erika17: She walked out, watching him, continuing to smile. <go>
poke_master9243: He blushed lightly and ate in silence after she left. <go>
rp_erika17: Days passed and Zefus was released. Glace finally woke up, but refused to talk
to anyone but Donner. Mai stood outside the hospital wing, trying to listen in on one of their
conversations. <go>
poke_master9243: Zefus came up the hall, having seen Mai. "What're you doing?"<go>
rp_erika17: "Shh." She hissed, pressing her ear against the door. <go<>
poke_master9243: He walked closer, quietly, doing the same. <go>
rp_erika17: "Glace is up... but he won't talk. I'm worried." <go>
poke_master9243: "Maybe he's just mad?"<go>
rp_erika17: "I think you broke him." <go>
poke_master9243: "I hope not..." He quieted his voice more. <go>
rp_erika17: She sighed, pressing her ear closer to the door. <go>
poke_master9243: Zefus closed his eyes, hoping to get in some words. <go>
rp_erika17: The door opened and Mai fell to the floor. Donner looked down at her, "You're
right. She is out here... and so it the boy." He looked back, nodding, "Ok." Donner helped Mai up and moved her in the room, "Come on. You too." <go>
poke_master9243: Zefus quickly shuffled into the room, his cheeks red with embarassment. <go>
rp_erika17: Glace sat up in bed. His arms, still broken were crossed in front of him, being
held in slings. Bandages covered his head and face. He looked up at them. <go>
poke_master9243: Though pained by the state that Glace was in, Zefus kept his eyes directly on him. <go>
rp_erika17: Donner moved chairs to Glace's bedside for Mai and Zefus, backing away from them. Mai took her seat. "Are you... How are you doing?" <go>
poke_master9243: Zefus sat down next to her, looking closely over all the wounds on Glace's body. <go>
rp_erika17: Glace coughed, "Child..." <go>
poke_master9243: "Yes?"<go>
rp_erika17: "You showed me that you need to be pushed to..." He groaned.
"Take it easy, mate." Donner spoke from his corner of the room. Glace groaned, "You neither pass nor fail the test. You have great power, yes, but you have no idea how to use them... and you had to be forced to fight." <go>
poke_master9243: He stayed quiet, listening intently to Glace's words. <go>
rp_erika17: "So... what does that mean?" Mai spoke quietly. Glace glanced at her, "He will
have another test." <go>
poke_master9243: "When?"<go>
rp_erika17: "Soon..." Glace lay back down. Donner cleared his throat, "Ok, kids, vamoose." <go>
poke_master9243: Zefus nodded, quickly exiting the room. <go>
rp_erika17: Mai followed, but Donner grabbed her, "No... not you." She looked at him, then
to Zefus. <go>
poke_master9243: "Don't hurt her..."<go>
rp_erika17: Donner pulled her back, "Be away with you." <go>
poke_master9243: He gritted his teeth. "Do not harm her." <go>
rp_erika17: Donner pushed him out and closed the door. <go>
poke_master9243: Zefus sat there outside the door, listening intently. <go>
rp_erika17: Glace spoke low. Mai gasped, "No!" But was quickly hushed. <go>
poke_master9243: He closed his eyes to focus more on what was being said. "Maitre..."<go>
rp_erika17: Soon the door opened and Donner walked out, "Ready for lessons?"
poke_master9243: "You mean I get to stay?"<Go>
rp_erika17: "Long enough for the next test. You wanted to learn Thunder, right?"
poke_master9243: "Yes... I figure it will help my lightning abilities." <go>
rp_erika17: "Oh? ...Well, they are very different." <go>
poke_master9243: "But still related."<go>
rp_erika17: "The only relation is difficulty." <go>
poke_master9243: He sighed and stood up. "Where's Mai?"<go>
rp_erika17: "Mai's a little busy at the moment." <go>
poke_master9243: "Tell me..." <go>
rp_erika17: "I can't. I am only ordered to give you lessons." <go>
poke_master9243: "Please... I have to know if she's okay..."<g>
rp_erika17: "She's fine... Do you want these lessons or not?" He smirked. <go>
poke_master9243: He sighed and nodded. <go>
rp_erika17: Donner smiled, "Very well. Let's get started." <go>
poke_master9243: "Where? Don't we need to go outside?<go>
rp_erika17: "Of course. Your test will be outside this time." <go>
poke_master9243: He nodded and slowly shuffled down the hall. <go>
rp_erika17: Donner lead the way to a small plot a dirt. "Here..." <go>
poke_master9243: "Alright..." He took a place and prepared himself. <go>
rp_erika17: "First off: Focus... You need to feel the air." <go>
poke_master9243: He closed his eyes, embracing the wind around him. <go>
rp_erika17: "Once you feel it, open your eyes. You will need to see it." <go>
poke_master9243: He slowly opened his eyes, watching the thin whisps of air flow. <go>
rp_erika17: "Do you see the warm currents and the cold currents?" <go>
poke_master9243: Focusing more, he saw the flow changing softly, noticing
differences. "Yes..."<go>
rp_erika17: "Memorize their movements." <go>
poke_master9243: He nodded, watching the steady fall and rise, swerves, and speed of the
air. <go>
rp_erika17: "Just watch for a moment." <go>
poke_master9243: Zefus observed the movement, learning it's steady motion. <go>
rp_erika17: "Just focus on the warm currents. The warmer ones are the ones you'll need to
look for." <go>
poke_master9243: His focus grew and he saw some thicken and others thin out. "I see
them..."<gO>
rp_erika17: "Go... are you able to see them better now?" <go>
poke_master9243: "Yes... I see them clearly."<go>
rp_erika17: "Good. You're a fast learner... Now, watch me." He held out his hand, feeling the
warm currents. <go>
poke_master9243: Zefus moved his focus to Donner. <og>
rp_erika17: "Don't blink... and you may want to cover you ears." <go>
poke_master9243: "I'll be fine."<go>
rp_erika17: "...As you wish." In a split second, the warm air turned white hot, snapping out
a sound similar to a whip's crack. The sound moved fast, slicing a tree in half. <go>
poke_master9243: His eyes widened and his jaw dropped. "Wow...."<go>
rp_erika17: "Get it all?" He grinned, smoke lifting off his hand. <go>
poke_master9243: "I think..."<go>
rp_erika17: "It's hard, but you can do it. Try it out." <go>
poke_master9243: He nodded and went through all the motions, but to no avail. Trying several more times, he finally got it to move, but not until numerous failures did he finally complete the move. <go>
rp_erika17: Donner got bored and went to a bench, watching him. <go>
poke_master9243: Panting, he kept practicing until he had the move down. He quickly
snapped a few small bushes and a tree or two. <go>
rp_erika17: Donner yawned, "Goo..-yawn-d job." <go>
poke_master9243: "Thanks. Sorry bout it taking so long..."<go>
rp_erika17: "It's not the best... but it's not the worst." <go>
poke_master9243: He thought over something for a minute. "I wanna try something else,
actually..." He performed the move that Donner had showed him, but after just a few more tries, got it to spark with lightning while slicing it's target. "Yes!"<Go>
rp_erika17: Donner gave him a bored look, "...I'm hungry." He mumbled to himself. <go>
poke_master9243: "Then go eat... I wanna keep practicing."<go>
rp_erika17: "Nah... I'm suppose to keep an eye on you." <go>
poke_master9243: "I wanna practice... I'll be fine. Get Fumare out here, if you want..." <go>
rp_erika17: "You two will bicker like an old married couple. No dice." <go>
poke_master9243: He sighed. "Then let's go eat. I can practice more later."<go>
rp_erika17: "I'll be fine." He laughed some, until his stomach disagreed with a long, whiny
cry. <go>
poke_master9243: "Come on. You're hungry. I could use a bite to eat too..."<go>
rp_erika17: He got up, "Well... if you insist." <go>
poke_master9243: Zefus laughed. "Insist? If you like we can stay."<go>
rp_erika17: "I don't mind. Your training is more important than me." <go>
poke_master9243: "I don't care what we do. My training may be important, yes, but I don't
mind what we do right now. " <go>
rp_erika17: He sighed, "Well, then. Let's go to dinner." <go>
poke_master9243: Zefus smiled and walked with him. "Will Mai be there?"<go>
rp_erika17: "...I don't know." <go>
poke_master9243: His head lowered. "Why is Glace punishing her like this?"<go>
rp_erika17: "...I wish I could say." <go>
poke_master9243: "She didn't even do anything wrong... So she didn't get the person they
wanted, big deal... At least they've got one more..." <go>
rp_erika17: "Just drop it... please." <go>
poke_master9243: "It's just not fair..."<go>
rp_erika17: "Boy... You'll understand soon." <go>
poke_master9243: "What are you exactly? I mean, all of you... You're all human-looking, but
yet you call me human..."<go>
rp_erika17: "Casters." <go>
poke_master9243: "Casters? Like... Magicians?"<go>
rp_erika17: "The truth is... we're being made extinct. Fonce, in all reality, is saving us. We
should be helping him. He's just going too far." <go>
poke_master9243: "Wait... How is he saving you?"<Go>
rp_erika17: "He wants our kind to be pure. That will save us. But he would want us not to
associate with your kind." <go>
poke_master9243: "So he wants humans to be extinct..."<go>
rp_erika17: "No... everyone but us. He's willing to slaughter every non-Caster he sees." <go>
poke_master9243: "That's barbaric!" <go>
rp_erika17: "Yes... We're willing to make our kind's sacrifice to save others. He doesn't realize that if he wins, he's killed us." <go>
poke_master9243: Zefus clenched his fists tight. "How can he think that's the right thing to do?!" <go>
rp_erika17: "He's blinded by power." <go>
poke_master9243: He growled lightly. "Power like that should never be abused..."<go>
rp_erika17: He nodded, "Remember those words if you are ever driven mad by them." <go>
poke_master9243: "Fonce will fall... No one consumed by that much power can have much free will..."<go>
rp_erika17: Donner stopped. "...He was able to kill our Master. He was like you, powers exactly the same... in fact, you have his flowing in you. It was all that survived Fonce's wrath." <go>
poke_master9243: "You mean... The same power that Fonce uses, is the same power I have?"<go>
rp_erika17: He nodded. "Yes." <go>
poke_master9243: Zefus stopped. "Perhaps, then, it's possible to make a link between
us..."<go>
rp_erika17: "Don't you dare try it. You are not skilled enough, and if he knows you are here, you are as good as dead." <go>
poke_master9243: "Fine... I just thought it might be worth it to link our powers... Then we'd have them evened, right?"<go>
rp_erika17: "...I don't know. Please, drop this subject and let's eat." <go>
poke_master9243: "Fine, fine..." He stopped talking and didn't speak until they reached the cafe.<go>
rp_erika17: Donner entered, "Just sit anywhere. And behave yourself." He walked to a large table, made for the teachers. <go>
poke_master9243: Zefus scouted out the room, but he didn't seem to find Mai so instead he headed to Sophie. <go>
rp_erika17: She ate quietly, alone, missing Mai. <go>
poke_master9243: He sat down next to her. "Hey, Sophie."<go>
rp_erika17: "Hm? Oh! Zephry, what a nice surprise." <go>
poke_master9243: He chuckled. "Miss her, huh?"<go>
rp_erika17: "I do... It's so lonely without her." <go>
poke_master9243: "I'd imagine... I can't get anything out of Don..."<go>
rp_erika17: She giggled, "I bet Mai could." <go>
poke_master9243: "Maybe..." He nudged her playfully. "Is Glace anywhere around?"<go>
rp_erika17: "No... Both of them are missing." She sighed. "I bet he's giving her private
lessons to catch her up." <go>
poke_master9243: "Probably," he lied. "Hey, Sophie... What's your power?"<go>
rp_erika17: "Rain... why?" <go<>
poke_master9243: "Just wondering. I hadn't known." He smiled. <go>
rp_erika17: She giggled, "Do you want private lessons or something?" <go>
poke_master9243: "Hmm... I just might take ya up on that offer."<go>
rp_erika17: She giggled more, "Oh?" <go>
poke_master9243: "Yeah. I could use some extra training. Wait till tonight... Donner's
keeping a close eye on me for now..."<go>
rp_erika17: She nodded, "Urm... I'm a little afraid of the dark. Can't we do it during the
day?" <go>
poke_master9243: "Sure." He smiled. "I'll just have to find a way to sneak off."<go>
rp_erika17: "Oh, wait... I have class... Maybe I can skip one next week." <go>
poke_master9243: "No... I can't make you skip..." He closed his eyes, contemplating. <go>
rp_erika17: "Just eat..." She giggled, stuffing some cherry pie in her mouth. <go>
poke_master9243: "Say, where can I get me a plate?"<go>
rp_erika17: She picked her up and slid the spare to him, "I always get two for some reason."
<go>
poke_master9243: He laughed and went off to get food, not paying attention to the eyes
on him. <go>
rp_erika17: She giggled, eating her pie. <go>
poke_master9243: Zefus came down and sat back by her, slowly eating. "This is good."<Go>
rp_erika17: "This food always is." <go>
poke_master9243: He smiled. "Everyone's staring at me..."<GO>
rp_erika17: "It may be your clothes. They're weird." <go>
poke_master9243: "Maybe... Hey, what's say you and I go shopping later?"<go>
rp_erika17: "Can we? That'll be great!" <go>
poke_master9243: "Well, I need new clothes, and I'd rather not go alone... I could get lost."<go>
rp_erika17: She nodded, "If you want a school uniform, the school can provide one... unless..." She grew a sly smirk. <go>
poke_master9243: He cocked his head to the side. "Unless what?"<Go>
rp_erika17: "You do like Mai, and you want to impress her." <go>
poke_master9243: He blushed. "Wha... What're you talking about?"<go>
rp_erika17: "That's why you want to go shopping." <go>
poke_master9243: "No, no... I just want some new clothes." The blushing grew. <go>
rp_erika17: She giggled, "You like her." <go>
poke_master9243: "A little..." He looked back to his food, nervously picking at it. <go>
rp_erika17: Sophie smiled, "So cute." <go>
poke_master9243: "So, what day do ya wanna go shopping?"<go>
rp_erika17: "Hm.. this weekend's good for me. Maybe Mai can come to." <go>
poke_master9243: "I hope she'll be alright..." He looked around and scooted a little closer to Sophie. "How bad is the school's security?"<go>
rp_erika17: She looked, "Security? We never really needed any..." <go>
poke_master9243: "Good..." <Go>
rp_erika17: Sophie took her napkin, wiping her mouth. <go>
poke_master9243: "Hey, Sophie, can ya keep a secret for me?"<Go>
rp_erika17: She looked, "Secret?!" <go>
poke_master9243: "Well, keep something from the other students and teachers?"<Go>
rp_erika17: "I'll try." <go>
poke_master9243: "Tonight, provided no one's keeping an eye on me, I'm gonna sneak out to train... I'll try to find Mai as well..."<go>
rp_erika17: She gasped, "Really?" She looked down, "Train for what? What exactly do you know?" <go><
poke_master9243: He looked around before quieting her. "I know about Fonce..." <go>
rp_erika17: She gasped, falling out of her seat. <go>
poke_master9243: He grabbed her and pulled her back up. "Shhh!" <go>
rp_erika17: "I'm sorry... It's not allowed to talk about him." <go>
poke_master9243: "I know..." he whispered. "That's why I'm gonna train at night."<go>
rp_erika17: "Oh..." She whispered back, "Good luck then." <go>
poke_master9243: "If you'd like, we can train together. Maybe we can find a
place that's light."<go>
rp_erika17: "...I don't want to." <go>
poke_master9243: He nodded, understanding. "Well, I'll keep an eye out for Mai. Whatever you do, though, don't let Don or Glace find out. " <go>
rp_erika17: "I promise." <go>
poke_master9243: He smiled and began eating once more. <go>
rp_erika17: She got up, "I need to do my homework. It's getting late." <go>
poke_master9243: "Alright. I'll see ya around." Zefus finished his food and
went to dump off his plate. <go>
rp_erika17: Sophie waved at him, got her purse and ran off. <go>
poke_master9243: "Hmm... Maybe I shouldn't have told her..."<go>
rp_erika17: Donner walked up to Zefus, "Finished?" <go>
poke_master9243: He nodded and yawned. "And full..." <go>
rp_erika17: "Good. Time for bed then. You can stay with me." <go<>
poke_master9243: A pang resounded in his head. "Ohh... Alright..."<go>
rp_erika17: "Come on. I got you some pajamas too." <go>
poke_master9243: "No need. I'm gonna go shopping tomorrow."<go>
rp_erika17: "The school will provide you with a uniform and other clothes." <go>
poke_master9243: "I can get my own clothes... As for a uniform, are you
sure I need one? I may not even be here long."<go>
rp_erika17: "...Boy, don't refuse our graditude." <go>
poke_master9243: "Well, it's up to Glace whether or not I stay..."<go>
rp_erika17: "Why are you so difficult?" He flipped his hair.<go>
poke_master9243: "Why are you so persistent?" <Go>
rp_erika17: "Glace said you were a difficult child." <go>
poke_master9243: "I'm sure he'd know..." Zefus smirked slightly. <Go>
rp_erika17: Donner crossed his arms, "Either come with me, or sleep outside."
<go>
poke_master9243: "Fine... I'll sleep outside."<go><
rp_erika17: "Very well. Tomorrow, we can take your powers and send you home." <go>
poke_master9243: "I do better alone... I can manage one night outside."<go>
rp_erika17: "If you keep refusing our help, you'll end up like Fonce... and we really don't need two of you." <go>
poke_master9243: Zefus glared. "I will not turn out like Fonce."<go>
rp_erika17: "Really? He never stayed in his dorm... He always slept outside,
all alone." <go>
poke_master9243: "I just want a night alone... Just one night... Is that really so much to ask?"<go>
rp_erika17: "...Do whatever you want, Boy." He sighed and walked off. <go>
poke_master9243: Zefus shook his head and slowly headed outside, ignoring
the constant pairs of eyes on him. <go>
rp_erika17: Donner walked to a window, overlooking the school grounds. <go>
poke_master9243: After a short walk, Zefus found a comfortable spot and laid down, watching the stars until he began to drift to sleep. <go>
rp_erika17: "So... how'd he do?" Glace's voice echoed over the empty schoolyard.
"Not bad. He may hurt her."
"She'll be fine. I trained her myself. She'll win and prove him a fraud." <go>
poke_master9243: The words woke Zefus and he listened quietly. <Go>
rp_erika17: Donner sighed, "He knows Thunder now..."
"That's three: Lightning, Fire, and Thunder."
"She's weak against those. You're going to kill her!"
"Silence! She can handle herself just fine. If you're that concerned over her safety, you shouldn't have taught him..." <go>
poke_master9243: "They expect me to fight Mai as my test..."<Go>
rp_erika17: Glace laughed a little, "You know... It's a fitting end. She was a pawn from the beginning." Donner stared at the ground, pausing, "Glace... she is a life. She's one of us... It doesn't matter if it was her purpose." <go>
poke_master9243: Zefus glared in Glace's direction. "He can't be willing to actually do that to his own sister..."<go>
rp_erika17: "Does she at least know?" Donner sighed. Glace nodded some, "Of course. I told her to fight her hardest, no matter what." <go>
poke_master9243: "I am not going to fight her... no matter what they say..."<go>
rp_erika17: "Well... good night." Glace smiled.
"...Night." He sighed.<go>
poke_master9243: "I can't let them do this..." He slowly slipped around through the trees, following Glace. <go>
rp_erika17: Glace walked down the halls, his hands in his pockets. <go>
poke_master9243: Quietly and carefully, he slipped in the doors before they closed. <go>
rp_erika17: Glace walked in his room, decorated in an icy blue. He took off his jacket and
threw it on his bed. <go>
poke_master9243: He watched carefully, keeping an eye out for Mai. <go>
rp_erika17: "You can come out of hiding, Child... I know you're here." <go>
poke_master9243: He walked calmly into the room. "Why are you doing this? Why are you making me fight Mai?"<go>
rp_erika17: "...I'm not. There's more than one 'her' in this school." <go>
poke_master9243: "Then who?" <go>
rp_erika17: "She wants to remain unknown... but she's one of my students that's slipping. I'm giving her a change to make up all her work if she fights. Even if she loses, she'll pass my class." <go>
poke_master9243: He clenched his fists slightly. "Then where is Mai?"<Go>
rp_erika17: "Making up work. She won't be around much until she finishes." <go>
poke_master9243: "Can I at least see her?"<gO>
rp_erika17: "If I let you see her, will you dorm with Donner?" <go>
poke_master9243: "Glace... I need one night by myself. I promise to dorm with him tomorrow, but I want to be alone just tonight."<go>
rp_erika17: "Then no." <go>
poke_master9243: He sighed. "Fine... Please, let me see her."<go>
rp_erika17: He sighed, untying his tie, "Follow me." He walked out, going down a long hallway, and a few flights of stairs. <go>
poke_master9243: Zefus slowly followed, his head hung low. <go>
rp_erika17: He pushed a door open. "She's in there, making up work. Don't bother her. Just take a look." <go>
poke_master9243: "I can't speak to her?"<go>
rp_erika17: "No..." <go>
poke_master9243: He turned around and walked off. <go>
rp_erika17: "You're not going to look?" <go>
poke_master9243: "I can't talk to her, so what's the point?"<go>
rp_erika17: "I knew you were a child." <go>
poke_master9243: "I am not a child..." He stopped in the middle of the hall, his fists clenched. <go>
rp_erika17: "Really? A man would be at least grateful that he could see someone he cared
for... unless you just don't care." <go>
poke_master9243: Sparks raced over his knuckles. "Shut up... It's because of you I'm not allowed to be with her right now anyway..."<go>
rp_erika17: "She missed class on her own free will." <go>
poke_master9243: "She missed class because of our fight..."<go>
rp_erika17: He walked off, "Just go to your tree and sleep." <go>
poke_master9243: He smirked. "Fine... I will..." He walked outside, heading a considerable distance out. <go>
rp_erika17: Glace narrowed his eyes, going back to his room. <go>
poke_master9243: Instead of going to sleep, however, Zefus stayed up all night, practicing
moves. He tried combining the moves he knew already, and kept at it all night. <go>
rp_erika17: Glace watched him from his window. <go>
poke_master9243: After an hour or two, he was finally able to perform a move where he
created the thunder currents, but sparked it with electricity, moving it with the wind like a
serpent. <go>
rp_erika17: Glace's cold eyes stayed with him. He even made the air cooler so Zefus would get stronger. <go>
poke_master9243: Zefus began shivering from the cold air, but he continued, trying to move the serpent against the wind. <go>
rp_erika17: Glace chuckled some. "Tomorrow... he'll be ready." <go>
poke_master9243: At the time of dawn, Zefus had perfected the serpents movements, making it move however he desired. <go>
rp_erika17: Donner yawned, walking out, "...Hey. Have you been up all night?" <go>
poke_master9243: He was nearly out of breath, but panted out a "yes" before leaning against a tree. <go>
rp_erika17: "Want to go to bed now?" <go>
poke_master9243: He chuckled. "I wouldn't object to it, but I still wanna practice..."<go>
rp_erika17: "Practice is no good if you die in the process. Your test is this morning!" <go>
poke_master9243: He looked at him, eyes wide. "This morning?!"<Go>
rp_erika17: "Glace saw your show..." <go>
poke_master9243: Zefus was stunned. "He... saw my practice?"<Go>
rp_erika17: "Which is why I suggested my room..." He groaned. <go>
poke_master9243: He smirked. "You knew I'd want to practice, huh?"<go>
rp_erika17: "Practice or not, you should have listened. You have a few hours to eat and
sleep." <go>
poke_master9243: "Let me just try my move once more, alright?"<go>
rp_erika17: "..." He looked away. "Fine." <go>
poke_master9243: Zefus breathed in slowly, following the actions as if by instinct, and in no time, the sparking serpent floated in front of him. He gave it shape with the lightning and made it soar around. <Og>
rp_erika17: Donner looked away, "...When you're done, just get some breakfast." He walked off. <go>
poke_master9243: His focus faded, and at the same time, so did the serpent. He quickly caught up to Donner. "I wanna thank you..."<go>
rp_erika17: He stopped, his head lowering, "...You're welcome." <go>
poke_master9243: "If not for you, I'd not know Thunder..."<go>
rp_erika17: "Please. Drop this, and go get something to eat." <go>
poke_master9243: He sighed and walked into the cafeteria, getting food and hot chocolate. <go>
rp_erika17: Glace sat at the teacher's table, talking. He saw Zefus and got up, going to him. <go>
poke_master9243: Zefus looked up at him. "Er.. Hi, Glace."<go>
rp_erika17: "Impressive show... I hope you are prepared." <go>
poke_master9243: "I think I am... And thanks. I'm glad you liked it."<go>
rp_erika17: He smirked, "Yes... I think Mai should be caught up enough to attend. I want you to impress her." <go>
poke_master9243: He looked at him confused. "Why do you want her impressed?"<go>
rp_erika17: "She gave you your powers, right? Show her how fast you learn." <gl>
poke_master9243: "Oh... Right." With a slight sense of pride, he stuck out a hand for Glace
to shake. <go>
rp_erika17: Glace looked at it, "Good luck." He shook it. <go>
poke_master9243: "May the best Caster win."<go>
rp_erika17: "Indeed... Don't be fooled by her appearance. Your test is in an hour." <go>
poke_master9243: He nodded and walked off, getting a cup of coffee to keep him
energized. <go>
rp_erika17: Glace walked off, smirking. <go>
poke_master9243: Zefus looked around the room, hoping to see Sophie. <go>
rp_erika17: She sat alone again, starting at her empty plate. <go>
poke_master9243: He walked over to her cautiously, sitting across from her. "You alright?"<go>
rp_erika17: "It's just so lonely without Mai..." <go>
poke_master9243: "I hear she may be back today. Glace says she had to catch up on her work that she missed while we were in the hospital wing." <go>
rp_erika17: "Oh.. that makes sense." She smiled, "I hope so." <go>
poke_master9243: He grinned. "Me too. I got in a lot of practice last night... and my test's in an hour. Will you come watch?"<go>
rp_erika17: "Yes. I think the entire school will be there." <go>
poke_master9243: "Oh... Has rumor spread of it?"<go>
rp_erika17: She look down. "Good luck." <go>
poke_master9243: He grabbed her hand lightly. "Thanks."<Go>
rp_erika17: She smiled. "I should go." <go>
poke_master9243: "Alright. See ya soon." He winked and finished his coffee . <go>
rp_erika17: Soon, the moment of the test had arrived. Donner led Zefus to a large stadium with several different settings. There was a small forest, a few streams, even an open rocky area. Donner stopped, "When you enter.. your test will begin shortly. Good luck." <go>
poke_master9243: He nodded, breathing deeply. Shortly after, he took a step inside. <Go>
rp_erika17: A large crowd started to boo and hiss on his arrival.
rp_erika17: <go>
poke_master9243: Zefus ignored them, looking around for Mai and Sophie. <go>
rp_erika17: Glace walked into a sky box type area with a few other teachers. Maitre was with him. She looked at Zefus giving a short wave before Glace glanced at her a little angrily. <go>
poke_master9243: He smiled and focused on the arenas, studying them quickly. <go>
rp_erika17: His opponent walked out in a khaki color ninja-like outfit. All you can see of her was her eyes, staring daggers at Zefus. <go>
poke_master9243: Zefus looked at her. Glace's words came to mind. 'Don't underestimate her appearance...' He took a stance, ready for battle. <go>
rp_erika17: Glace smiled, "Are you ready, Child? Can you handle the pressure when you lose in front of everyone?" <go>
poke_master9243: "I will not lose..." <go>
rp_erika17: "Begin!" Glace called out, and the mystery girl flew at Zefus with some fury, picking up dust with a whirlwind and whipping the hazard at him. <go>
poke_master9243: Zefus leaped aside in just the nick of time. He rolled over and stood up. "Who are you?..." <go>
rp_erika17: "Does it matter?" She spat out in a harsh voice, "The victor, of course." She jumped up, creating mini tornadoes on her fists and flew at Zefus. <go>
poke_master9243: Zefus dodged a few, but one hit him and sent him flying. "That's it..." He sent a shockwave at the girl. <go>
rp_erika17: She knocked it away, but the arm that touched it was crippled with the charge. She looked at him, the wind around her whipping up. <go>
poke_master9243: He glared at her. "You will not beat me..." He leaped high into the air and sent a few fireballs in her direction. <go>
rp_erika17: She ran into the shelter of the trees, panting. <go>
poke_master9243: He noticed her running into the trees and had enough speed to send one fireball into the forested area before hitting the ground. <go>
rp_erika17: The fireball hit her shoulder and she cried out in pain. The winds suddenly died down as the fire got on the trees, flaming up. <go>
poke_master9243: He stood up, shaking off the dirt from the impact. Looking around, he saw the trees on fire and rushed to the area, peeking through the trees. <Go>
rp_erika17: Wind suddenly picked up, swirling around him, trapping him and the girl in a vortex. She walked out, her eyes almost as cold as Glace's. The fire caught the wind and joined with the vortex, making it an inferno. "Hot enough for you?" <go>
poke_master9243: "Not even..." He took his chance and slammed his fists on the ground, making the earth uneven. <go>
rp_erika17: She grunted, lifting up in the air, thanks to the wind. <go>
poke_master9243: "Who are you... tell me now!" Anger flustered him as he leaped back. <Go>
rp_erika17: "If you win... You get to unmask me." She laughed, holding a hand to him. <go>
poke_master9243: He smiled. "Then I will..." <Go>
rp_erika17: The top of the vortex moved to her and wrapped around her. It was like the fire in the wind was a snake and she was charming it. Soon, it wrapped around and down her extended arm, making a snake-like animal, even giving off a hiss. <go>
poke_master9243: "He taught you my trick, did he?" Grinning, Zefus quickly summoned his electric serpent. <go>
rp_erika17: "Didn't your mother tell you not to play with fire!?" She whipped her arm at him, sending her fiery serpent. <go>
poke_master9243: He lashed out his as well, watching the two meet. <go>
rp_erika17: The fire and wind snake simply exploded, sending the airborne girl back and into the stadium wall. The inferno vortex settled down and the crowd watched in horror. <go>
poke_master9243: Zefus walked coldly to her, his arms sparking. "You... will... not... win..." He sent numerous shockwaves at her. <go>
rp_erika17: She screamed, trying to get up and out of the way. <go>
poke_master9243: "Don't count on it." He cracked the earth open underneath her, trapping the young girl in the ground. <go>
rp_erika17: She cried, whipping up wind and dust, trying to break the lightning's power. <go>
poke_master9243: He reached forward and pulled off her mask. "Now to find out who you are..."<Go>
rp_erika17: Long blue hair fell out from the sloppy bun it was put in. It was Maitre. She was out cold from all the brutal attacks. Her body twitched from the surge of electricity still in it. <go>
poke_master9243: "Mai... Maitre..."<go>
rp_erika17: Glace laughed from his seat, "Surprised, Child!?" <go>
poke_master9243: Zefus screeched in anger and sent an enormous bolt of electricity at the sky box that held Glace.<GO>
rp_erika17: The Maitre that was with him jumped in front of the blast, exploding in a burst of ice and snow. <go>
poke_master9243: His eyes widened. "You... You monster!!!" He summoned another serpent and got on it, flying up to the sky box. <go>
rp_erika17: A few of the other teachers in the box jumped out. One spend out a platform of air for the others to stand on, as two others trapped Zefus in a bubble of water. <go>
poke_master9243: He writhed and twisted. "LET ME OUT!" Lightning sparked around him. <go>
rp_erika17: Glace got up, "Calm down. If you really cared for her life, you would have lightened up. You did thrash her up rather roughly, even with her being a girl." <go>
poke_master9243: He glared at Glace, grinning lightly. "I've one more trick that you don't know..." <go>
rp_erika17: "Attack me... I dare you. Maitre won't live for tomorrow. I will guarantee that." <go>
poke_master9243: "You'd kill your own sister?"<go>
rp_erika17: "Worse..." He grinned. <go>
poke_master9243: "Maitre..." <g>
rp_erika17: "Stand down." <go>
poke_master9243: He lowered his arms, the sparks falling. <Go>
rp_erika17: "Good boy..." He held his hand out, "Why don't you take a time out?" <go>
poke_master9243: He glared at Glace's hand, but took it hesitantly. <go>
rp_erika17: He smirked firing a ball of cold air at the water ball. It started to freeze, trapping Zefus in a ball of ice. <go>
poke_master9243: The ice ball fell to the ground, shattering in a cloud of icy dust. Zefus lay there, unmoving. <go>
rp_erika17: Glace walked off, "Clean up the mess..." Donner nodded, sighing as he rushed down to them. <go>
poke_master9243: The boy passed out on the cold earth. <go>
rp_erika17: A couple days pass and Maitre woke up in a hospital bed. Her body hurt all over. <go>
poke_master9243: Zefus sat beside her. "Maitre... I'm so sorry."<go>
rp_erika17: She looked at him, "You are strong." <go>
poke_master9243: He smiled. "It's all thanks to you... You're my inspiration..."<Go>
rp_erika17: She smiled, "I'm sorry." <go>
poke_master9243: He gently held her hand. "No... I am..."<Go>
rp_erika17: "I provoked you." <go>
poke_master9243: "It doesn't matter... I'm just glad you're alright."<go>
rp_erika17: "You can control your powers better." <go>
poke_master9243: He grinned. "I been practicing." <go>
rp_erika17: "I felt." <go>
poke_master9243: His grin was replaced by a frown. He lowered his head to the edge of her bed. "I really am sorry... Glace... he told me it wasn't you... that I had to fight..."<go>
rp_erika17: "If you knew it was me... would you have fought at all?" <go>
poke_master9243: "I... I don't know..." <go>
rp_erika17: "Why did you fight so hard in the first place?" <go>
poke_master9243: "I... I'm not sure..." He looked away, a tear rolling down his cheek. <go>
rp_erika17: "Zef... you don't go around beating up on girls, do you?" <go>
poke_master9243: He turned to face her. "No... I would never do that..."<Go>
rp_erika17: "Then why? You had no idea who it was, except that she was a girl..." <go>
poke_master9243: "I think... I was so intent on impressing Glace..." <go>
rp_erika17: "You're really cruel..." She turned away from him. <go>
poke_master9243: Zefus sobbed quietly, but stopped himself. "Maitre... Please, don't do this..."<Go>
rp_erika17: "...If you want to, please leave." <go<
poke_master9243: "No... I want to be with you..." <Go>
rp_erika17: She sighed, "...go practice more." <go>
poke_master9243: "I won't leave you until you're better..."<go>
rp_erika17: "You have bigger things to focus on." <go>
poke_master9243: "No... I don't..."<go>
rp_erika17: "...you care more about me, than all of us." <go>
poke_master9243: "I care about you, yes..."<go>
rp_erika17: She closed her eyes. "I'm going to sleep. Can you come back for dinner and bring me something?" <go>
poke_master9243: He smiled. "Of course. Anything you want..."<go>
rp_erika17: She smiled, "Go practice." <go>
poke_master9243: He kissed her cheek. "Alright." <go>
rp_erika17: She pulled the covers over her and went to sleep, deep in thought over something. <go>
poke_master9243: Zefus quietly left the room, keeping his eyes on her until he was out of sight. <go>
rp_erika17: Sophie ran up, nearly bumping into him, "Oh!" <go>
poke_master9243: "Sophie!" He smiled half-heartedly. <go>
rp_erika17: "Hello. Great match!" <go>
poke_master9243: He looked away, sad. <go>
rp_erika17: "What's the matter? You won. Isn't that what you wanted?" <go>
poke_master9243: "Not at the price it cost me..."<go>
rp_erika17: "...She'll be fine. Mai's a strong girl." <go>
poke_master9243: He nodded. "I hope... She's pretty bad off right now."<GO>
rp_erika17: She smiled, "Zefus, don't worry. It'll only hurt you." She put a hand on his shoulder. <go>
poke_master9243: He hugged her slightly. "Thanks, Sophie."<go>
rp_erika17: She smiled, "Get some lunch. I need to tutor Mai on the things she'll miss." <go>
poke_master9243: "Alright. I'll see you later." He shuffled down the hall solemnly. <go>
rp_erika17: She giggled and disappeared in the hospital wing. <go>
poke_master9243: Zefus walked down the hall, not looking at anyone he passed as he headed for outside. <go>
rp_erika17: "Well, well... If it isn't the big bad human, who preys on the weak stupid women." Fumare laughed. <go>
poke_master9243: He shoved past him, not listening. <go>
rp_erika17: "Hey, Boy." He ran after him, "I know where some Beginners study. Maybe you and me can thrash them up a bit... you know, for kicks." <go>
poke_master9243: Zefus whirled around and grabbed Fumare by the neck. "Leave me alone." He pushed him back hard and continued walking. <go>
rp_erika17: He felt his neck, "Pathetic human. Going off to cry over hurting your pet dog?" <go>
poke_master9243: He kept walking, finally reaching the front door. <go>
rp_erika17: "How sad... I thought you were a man. I suppose Mai's got you by the balls." He shrugged. <go>
poke_master9243: His hand was on the door handle as sparks raced up his arm. "Shut the **** up, you *******!"<go>
rp_erika17: "Or what? Going to cry to Mai?" <go>
poke_master9243: Zefus turned around and shot fireballs at Fumare, knowing that they wouldn't do anything. <go>
rp_erika17: He absorbed them, "Honestly, what do you have against me? You seemed to be fine over it before." <go>
poke_master9243: "Leave Mai out of this..."<go>
rp_erika17: "Certainly. No need to talk about the trash." He smiled. <go>
poke_master9243: "Ya know... You're lucky I respect your brother..." He turned back around and walked out. <go>
rp_erika17: "Ew... ***." <go>
poke_master9243: Zefus sat down on the grass and laid back, letting the sun hit him. <go>
rp_erika17: Fumare walked out, sighing, "You..." <go>
poke_master9243: He ignored him, smiling. <go>
rp_erika17: "You're suppose to save us." <go>
poke_master9243: "Oh, so you know then?"<go>
rp_erika17: "It's painfully obvious. No one here has been able to do the earthquakes before." <go>
poke_master9243: He sat up and looked at him surprised. "Really?" <go>
rp_erika17: "The entire history of the school,... not even the Headmasters could master it, and you did it like it was nothing." <go>
poke_master9243: Zefus grinned a little. "Wow... I had no idea."<go>
rp_erika17: He sighed again. "It was amusing seeing Mai get sucked down. You should have crushed her." <go>
poke_master9243: He stood up. "I could just as easily do it to you."<go>
rp_erika17: "...Whatever." <go>
poke_master9243: "Don't think I can? Or don't think I will?"<Go>
rp_erika17: "Either..." He walked off. <go>
poke_master9243: Zefus grinned and sent a small quake, trapping Fumare. "Happy now?"<go>
rp_erika17: He turned around, slinging a whip of fire at him. <go>
poke_master9243: He stuck out his arm to dodge it, but it hit his clothes and burned a hole through his sleeve. "Hey! That was my good shirt!" <Go>
rp_erika17: "Now it's your good and burnt shirt." <go>
poke_master9243: Zefus couldn't help himself and laughed, letting Fumare out. <go>
rp_erika17: He smiled some, "Glad someone has a sense of humor around here..." <go>
poke_master9243: "Mind teaching me that whip move? That was pretty cool."<go>
rp_erika17: "Maybe." <go>
poke_master9243: He smirked. "I'll tell ya what. You teach me the whip, and I'll try to teach you earthquakes."<Go>
rp_erika17: "Nah..." <go>
poke_master9243: "You sure? It comes in handy."<go>
rp_erika17: "We're not as flexible as you. If we learn too many things, they weaken." <go>
poke_master9243: "Oh..." He looked down. "I didn't know..."<go>
rp_erika17: "It's like making a punch drink. Our power can be like the water, and we can be the powder mix. Too much water, and the end result is a very weak drink." <go>
poke_master9243: "I see..." He looked around. "Mind giving me a tour? I've been here for almost two weeks, but I was kinda unconscious for one." He grinned a little. <go>
rp_erika17: "There's not much to show other than stuffy old classrooms." <go>
poke_master9243: He laughed. "Well, Sophie mentioned a mall nearby?"<Go>
rp_erika17: "Sophie... that gutterhead." He sneered. "The mall she mentioned is two hours away, and you have to take a train." <go>
poke_master9243: "Hmm... Maybe not." He grinned wide. "You up for a ride?"<go>
rp_erika17: "No. I have homework to do." <go>
poke_master9243: "Oh... Well, can I take a look? I've not seen what the homework here is like..." <go>
rp_erika17: "...I rather you didn't." He looked off. <go>
poke_master9243: "Okay... Well, I guess I should get to practicing. I've got something that I'm wanting to try, but it'll be hard." <go>
rp_erika17: "Have fun." He walked off. <go>
poke_master9243: "You too." He smirked as he watched Fumare walk away. <go>
rp_erika17: Fumare gave a yawn, disappearing in the shadows of a hallway. <go>
poke_master9243: Zefus headed for an open area and began practicing. <go>
rp_erika17: (unless you want to do some big, explainative post, I'm just gonna go to "later that night")
poke_master9243: (it's up to you)
rp_erika17: (sigh)... (fine) Later that night, Mai was feeling a lot better. She left her bed, going in search of Glace. <go>
poke_master9243: Zefus had headed inside and was walking around the halls. <go>
rp_erika17: Mai was limping back to the hospital. <go>
poke_master9243: "Mai! Hey! You okay?"<Go>
rp_erika17: "I'm fine... So... Practice much?" <go>
poke_master9243: "Yep. Plenty." He slightly grabbed her hand, blushing a little. <go>
rp_erika17: She looked at him, "Zefus...?" <go>
poke_master9243: "Y.. Yeah?" The blushing grew. <go>
rp_erika17: "You have my hand." <go>
poke_master9243: He nodded. <go>
rp_erika17: "...Why?" <go>
poke_master9243: "I... uhm... well... I like being with you..." <Go>
rp_erika17: "Maybe..." She smiled. <go>
poke_master9243: He looked at her and smiled, holding her hand tighter. "I'm glad I got my powers... Otherwise I wouldn't have met you."<go>
rp_erika17: She kissed his cheek. <go>
poke_master9243: A deep red blush was visible in his face as he smiled. <go>
rp_erika17: "Got it." <go>
poke_master9243: "Hm?"<Go>
rp_erika17: "Your cheek... got it." <go>
poke_master9243: He laughed and looked around before kissing hers. <go>
rp_erika17: She smiled, "..Zefus, I really need to go back to the hospital." <go>
poke_master9243: He nodded. "I understand. Here, let me carry you."<Go>
rp_erika17: She put her arms around his neck. <go>
poke_master9243: Zefus carefully picked her up and held her, slowly carrying her to the hospital wing. <go>
rp_erika17: She rested her head on his shoulder, "...I want steak for dinner." <go>
poke_master9243: He nodded. "I'll get you some."<go>
rp_erika17: "You'd better... or I'll eat you." <go>
poke_master9243: He grinned and sped up a little. "Here we are."<Go>
rp_erika17: She got down and got back in bed. <go>
poke_master9243: "Now, stay there until they let you get out, kay?"<go>
rp_erika17: "I promise." She smiled. <go>
poke_master9243: "Good." He gently kissed her cheek. "I'd better get down to dinner. I'm sure I won't be wanted, but I'll manage." <go>
rp_erika17: "Get yourself something to eat. You're too skinny." <go>
poke_master9243: He laughed. "I'll bring up some food when I get done. See you soon." <Go>
rp_erika17: She nodded and layed down. <go>
poke_master9243: He walked out the door with a last glance at her and slowly made his way down the hall, smiling. <go>
rp_erika17: Mai lay back, resting. <Go>
poke_master9243: Zefus slowly made his way to the cafeteria and pushed open the door, not knowing what to expect. <go>
rp_erika17: The caferteria was empty. Dinner was just starting. <go>
poke_master9243: "Oh... That works." He smiled and gathered a plate of food before sitting down. <go>
rp_erika17: Glace walked by, stopping, "Child..." <go>
poke_master9243: "Glace..."<Go>
rp_erika17: "Do you love Mai?" <go> ((OMG!! Kai, Mai. Haha!))
poke_master9243: "I like her, yes..." (OMG! I didn't even realize that till you said it! Maybe I should have used Kai's name XD)
rp_erika17: "I asked if you loved her." He narrowed his eyes. <go>
poke_master9243: "Well... uhm... yes..."<Go>
rp_erika17: "I see... Thank you." He walked off. <go>
poke_master9243: "What kind of question was that...?" <go>
rp_erika17: Glace moved on to the head table, taking a seat and staring his meal. <go>
poke_master9243: "Hmm... What's with him?" Zefus looked down at his own food, deep in thought. <go>
rp_erika17: Sophie hummed, taking a seat beside Zefus, "Hello~." <go>
poke_master9243: He looked up at her. "Oh, hey, Sophie."<Go>
rp_erika17: "How are you?" <go>
poke_master9243: "I'm alright. How about you?"<go>
rp_erika17: "I'm great. I finished all my homework early, so I can paint my toenails tonight." She giggled. <go>
poke_master9243: He laughed. "Girls..."<go>
rp_erika17: "I'll do you, if you want." <go>
poke_master9243: "No, no... I'm good." He grinned. <Go>
rp_erika17: "Aww." She smiled, fixing her plate. <go>
poke_master9243: He smiled and nudged her softly. "So what all are you doing tonight?"<Go>
rp_erika17: "I don't know. I'm a little bored without Mai around." <go>
poke_master9243: "Well, let's take that shopping trip. You've got nothing to do, besides your nails." <go>
rp_erika17: "Really!?" <go>
poke_master9243: "Yeah. I'm up for it. All I gotta do is run some food up to Mai when I'm done eating."<Go>
rp_erika17: "Thank you." She bowed. <go>
poke_master9243: He smiled and ate quickly. <go>
rp_erika17: She did the same. <go>
poke_master9243: After finishing his plate, Zefus prepared a steak and a few sides for Mai. "Well, do you wanna come with me to take her food?"<Go>
rp_erika17: "I'd love to, but I need to get my purse. I'll meet you there, kay?" <go>
poke_master9243: "Alright. See ya."<Go>
rp_erika17: She got up and giggled, running off. <go>
poke_master9243: Zefus dashed up the hospital wing's hall and walked into the room. "Mai, I brought your food."<Go>
rp_erika17: She was buried under the covers, sleeping soundly. <go>
poke_master9243: He placed the plate on her table, smiling. Slowly, he took his hand down her hair. <go>
rp_erika17: She grumbled, turning over. <go>
poke_master9243: "Mai," he whispered. "I brought your steak."<Go>
rp_erika17: "I... brought you mittens." <go>
poke_master9243: He laughed and kissed her cheek. <go>
rp_erika17: She opened her eyes, "Stinky." <go>
poke_master9243: "Mai?"<go>
rp_erika17: She pecked a kiss on his nose. <go>
poke_master9243: He laughed. "I brought your food." <gO.
rp_erika17: "Finally." She sat up. "What took you?" <go>
poke_master9243: He smiled. "I ate as quick as I could."<gO>
rp_erika17: "Greedy. Stuffing your fat face, while I whither away." She giggled. <go>
poke_master9243: He laughed. "Well, now you get to stuff your face."<go>
rp_erika17: "Sounds good to me!" She sat up. "Gimme." <go>
poke_master9243: Zefus grinned and handed the plate to her. "Just like you asked."<go>
rp_erika17: She smiled, cutting her food up, "You're the best... Now, tell me about you. What's it like in the human world?" <go>
poke_master9243: "Well, what do you want to know?"<go>
rp_erika17: "Anything? I just want to know about you." <go>
poke_master9243: "Hmm... Well, I'm an orphan. My parents were killed in an accident when I was 9." <GO>
rp_erika17: "Oh.. How sad. What kind of accident?" <go>
poke_master9243: "They were having a picnic one day and a tree fell over out of nowhere. It was huge."<Go>
rp_erika17: She choked on a giggle, looking down. <go>
poke_master9243: "It's fine... I miss them, but it's alright."<Go>
rp_erika17: "It's just a little funny. I'm sorry. At least they weren't tortured..." <go>
poke_master9243: "Yeah..." He held her hand. "Are you alright?"<Go>
rp_erika17: "I'm fine. I'm really sorry I laughed." <go>
poke_master9243: "No, no... it's fine. My mom always said to look for the comedy in things, no matter how bad they are."<go>
rp_erika17: "Zefus... were you ever scared, being all alone?" <go>
poke_master9243: "A few times. It was hard at night for a while, but I got over it. I found a few friends and we lived together after that." <go>
rp_erika17: "Where did you stay?" <go>
poke_master9243: "We made a hut in a tree. It was our own unique home."<go>
rp_erika17: "We? Who were this 'we'?" <go>
poke_master9243: "A friend or two. They were like brothers to me since birth."<go>
rp_erika17: She smiled, "That's very nice." <go>
poke_master9243: "Yeah. They were my second family." He smiled. "I wonder how they're doing..."<go>
rp_erika17: "Maybe you can find out soon..." Mai ate slowly. <go>
poke_master9243: "Maybe. Hey, you up for a shopping trip?"<Go>
rp_erika17: "Not today..." She wiped her mouth some. <go> (Hey... did you ever get a Growlithe?)
poke_master9243: "Alright. Sophie and I are gonna go, if you don't mind." <Go>
poke_master9243: (not yet... I've not got on PB today)
rp_erika17: "That's fine. Buy me something." She smiled. <go> I'll get cha one, pally.
poke_master9243: "Sure thing." He kissed her cheek. "Well, she'll be ready by now, I imagine." <go>
poke_master9243: (thanks)
rp_erika17: Just at that moment, Sophie popped in, "Mai-mai! I got a friend for you." <go>
poke_master9243: "A friend...?"<go>
rp_erika17: She pulled out a teddy bear. Maitre choked on some food, "Sophie!" "Aww... Mr. Fuzz heard you had some owies..." "I won't be the only one," Mai growled. <go>
poke_master9243: "Mr. Fuzz?"<go>
rp_erika17: Mai turned red, "Sophie..." <go>
poke_master9243: "Stuffed animal friend, I assume?"<go>
rp_erika17: Mai broke out in tears, "..Soph, how could you?" <go>
poke_master9243: "Mai, what's wrong?"<Go>
rp_erika17: Sophie set the bear down, "Mai... I'm sorry." She looked away, "I'll be waiting outside." <go>
poke_master9243: He sighed. "Mai? Are you alright?"<Go>
rp_erika17: She wiped her eyes, "Go." <go>
poke_master9243: He sighed heavily and walked out of the room quietly. "Let's go," he whispered to Sophie.<go>
rp_erika17: Sophie nodded. <go>
poke_master9243: He quickly headed outside. <go>
rp_erika17: She followed, "I didn't mean to make her cry." <go>
poke_master9243: "What's with the teddy bear?"<go>
rp_erika17: "He's her friend. She brought him the first year we came here, and never left him behind." She smiled, "I just thought it'll make her happy again." <go>
poke_master9243: "I think she'll be fine. It's possible she was just embarassed." <GO>
rp_erika17: "Maybe..." <go>
poke_master9243: He walked outside. "You up for a fun ride?"<Go>
rp_erika17: "Yeah. You got your pass?" <go>
poke_master9243: He grinned. "Nope, but I won't need one." He called forth his serpent. "Wanna faster way?"<Go>
rp_erika17: She gasped, "Oh... wow." <go> (Got your Growly. I'm gonna Lv him up some)
poke_master9243: "It's up to you... I call him Voltage... He's more of a Dragon than a snake..." <Go> (tankies )
rp_erika17: "He's beautiful." She touched him. <go>
poke_master9243: Voltage knelt his head down to her, looking at her with electric blue eyes. "I think he likes you."<Go>
rp_erika17: She giggled, "Good. Because I like him. You're so lucky." <go>
poke_master9243: "I suppose. I'm still working on doing more though... I wanna be able to make a fire one."<Go>
rp_erika17: "I can teach you to make a water one. Mine's small, but she's good enough." <go>
poke_master9243: He looked at her. "You mean, you've made a water serpent before?"<Go>
rp_erika17: "I wouldn't call it a serpent... She's only a few feet long." <go>
poke_master9243: "Can you show me? I'd love to see her."<go>
rp_erika17: She blushed, "Maybe after shopping." <go>
poke_master9243: He smiled. "Well, alright. You up for a ride on Voltage?"<go>
rp_erika17: "Can I? Will he let me?" She looked up at the mighty lightning beast. <go>
poke_master9243: "Yes, of course. Besides, I control him. So, if he tries to do anything, I can force him to stop." <go>
rp_erika17: She smiled, "...Well, how do I... get on?" <go>
poke_master9243: "Just jump." <Go>
rp_erika17: She jumped a little. <go>
poke_master9243: Voltage swerved and flew under her, lifting up more as he caught her. "Like it?" <go>
rp_erika17: She shook, "Whoa... this feels weird. I really should have worn pants." <go>
poke_master9243: "Don't worry... You'll forget all about it soon. Now for my grand appearance." Zefus jumped and his body sparked with electricity as he dissappeared completely and appeared again suddenly on Voltage's back, behind Sophie. "Ready?"<Go>
rp_erika17: She gasped, "My... you're full of surprises. Mai's really lucky." <go>
poke_master9243: "Something I picked up." He winked and Voltage flew up high into the sky. "So, where's the mall?"<Go>
rp_erika17: "Over there. Behind those mountains." <go>
poke_master9243: "You heard her Volt." The electric beast took off with incredible speed. <Go>
rp_erika17: She gasped, wrapping her arms around the beast. <go>
poke_master9243: Zefus chuckled, holding Sophie in place. "Don't worry!" he yelled over the loud winds. <go>
rp_erika17: She screamed. She was terrified. <go>
poke_master9243: Seconds later, Voltage hovered over the mall's entrance with a very shaken Sophie and Zefus standing below him. <go>
rp_erika17: She collapse to the ground, crying. <go>
poke_master9243: Zefus slowly held her. "Shhh... It's alright. I didn't realize he'd go so fast..."<Go>
rp_erika17: She shook, "...I.. prefer the train." <go>
poke_master9243: He sighed. "You can ride the train back, okay? Or, if you want, I'll force Voltage to go slow on the way back. I'm really sorry, Sophie..."<Go>
rp_erika17: She looked up at him, "...It's okay." <go>
poke_master9243: He hugged her tight. "I'm very very sorry... Either way, we're here now." <Go>
rp_erika17: "I don't feel like shopping anymore.." <go>
poke_master9243: Zefus sighed. "I'm really really sorry, Sophie... You can go ahead and ride home if you like... I do need to get in some shopping." <Go>
rp_erika17: She got up, "...I'll wait on your. It's not safe for me to travel alone." <go>
poke_master9243: He nodded. "At least wait inside. I'd hate for something to happen to you out here."<go>
rp_erika17: She nodded and went inside, finding a bench by a pretzel place. <go>
poke_master9243: (What money unit will we use?)
rp_erika17: (Erm... Dollaps and pents)
poke_master9243: (Okies...)
rp_erika17: (It's the best I got, lol)
poke_master9243: (What about Rupees instead? I know it's a little out there, but it is money)
poke_master9243: (Also, it's easier to keep up with, in my opinion)
rp_erika17: (I don't want De Temps to be stuck in one location)
poke_master9243: (Hmmm... Okies then.)
poke_master9243: Zefus handed Sophie a couple dollaps. "Get yourself a snack. I'm sure you could use it after that ride." <Go>
rp_erika17: She nodded, giggling, "Have fun shopping. I'll be right here." <go>
poke_master9243: He smiled and walked off, returning an hour later with several bags. "Think this should keep me over for a while." He handed her a bag. "Got you something too."<go>
rp_erika17: She looked up, "For me?" She took the bag and looked in it. <go>
poke_master9243: "Not sure what you liked..." He watched as she pulled out a long silvery dress embroidered with gems at the neckline. <go>
rp_erika17: Her eyes sparkled, "It's beautiful. I really hope this fits." She got up, slipping the dress back in and crushing a hug around Zefus' neck, "Thank you!" <go>
poke_master9243: He laughed. "It's no problem at all." He looked at the other bag. "Woops! That's Mai's..." Zefus handed her another bag. "That one's yours. The only real difference is yours is blue, like water."<Go>
rp_erika17: "Oh... ok. Blue." <go>
poke_master9243: "Sorry... I don't mind switching. I wasn't sure if you'd like it or not... I know that you can use water, so I thought maybe..."<go>
rp_erika17: "What... that I like blue? We can't choose what we're good in." She looked away, "I can't even swim." <go>
poke_master9243: He walked to her. "How about I teach you?" <Go>
rp_erika17: She blushed, "Wouldn't Mai get jealous?" <go>
poke_master9243: "Nah... She'll understand I'm sure."<go>
rp_erika17: "You just want to see me in a bathing suit." <go>
poke_master9243: He shook his head. "I want to help. I learned when I was eleven. I really don't mind teaching you now. How about tomorrow after your classes?"<Go>
rp_erika17: "Ok." She sighed, "Time to go home?" <go>
poke_master9243: "Yeah. It would seem that way. Uhm... Which way will you take?"<gO>
rp_erika17: "Train please." <go>
poke_master9243: "Hey, how can I get a pass for the train?"<Go>
rp_erika17: "You won't need one. I'll just pay for your trip out of pocket." <go> ((Hey. You want a M Growlithe, or a F?))
poke_master9243: "Oh... Well, let me pay. I've got plenty of money." <go> (Either.)
rp_erika17: "No, no... You bought Mai and me two very pretty dresses... I can pay." <go>
poke_master9243: "Are you sure? I really don't mind to pay."<go>
rp_erika17: "Yes. Now let's go." <go>
poke_master9243: He nodded, watching as Voltage faded into nothingness. <gO>
rp_erika17: She walked out, going down the sidewalk. <go>
poke_master9243: Zefus quickly headed after her, slowed by numerous bags. <go>
rp_erika17: "Do you need me to carry anything?" She looked back. <go>
poke_master9243: "No, no... I'm good." He came up right behind her. "Okay. Where's the train?"<Go>
rp_erika17: "A few blocks this way. You sure I can't help?" <go>
poke_master9243: He nodded, smiling. "I'm fine, trust me. Just the first time I've actually went shopping in ages."<go>
rp_erika17: "What all did you buy?" <go>
poke_master9243: "Well, plenty of clothes. A few other things here and there."<Go>
rp_erika17: "Did you buy any underwear?" <go>
poke_master9243: He laughed. "Of course."<go>
rp_erika17: "Good! I'm going to sew your name into them." <go>
poke_master9243: He laughed harder. "Well, alright then."<go>
rp_erika17: She giggled, "When I get on the train, I'm going to paint my toes." <go>
poke_master9243: He nodded. "Is that it?"<Go>
rp_erika17: She looked up, "Yes. See? Not that far." <go>
poke_master9243: Zefus grinned. "Well, let's go." <Go>
rp_erika17: She pulled out her train pass and got it punched. She pulled out some extra money and bought Zefus a ticket, then boarded the train. <go>
poke_master9243: Zefus followed her, sitting down in a seat behind her. <go>
rp_erika17: "You could have sat with me." She turned around. <go>
poke_master9243: "Well, I wanted to give you more room for your toes."<go>
rp_erika17: (sorry) She frowned, "You think my feet stink." <go>
poke_master9243: "No... I've seen people do their nails before. I figured you'd like to stretch out and do them." <Go>
rp_erika17: "Would you like to do them?" <go>
poke_master9243: "I'm a bit messy when it comes to paint..." He grinned. <go>
rp_erika17: "Aww..." She turned around in her seat, getting the polish out. <go>
poke_master9243: "Sorry..." he mumbled, averting his attention to the outside of the window. <go>
rp_erika17: A man in a uniform walked up to Zefus, "Ticket." <go>
poke_master9243: He got in his pocket and pulled out the small piece of paper, handing it to the man. <go>
rp_erika17: He clipped it and went to Sophie, asking the same. She flashed her pass, and he walked on to the other passengers. <go>
poke_master9243: Zefus sighed in boredom as the train rattled on the track. "I've never actually been on a train before..."<Go>
rp_erika17: Sophie smiled, "Happy early Birthday then." <go>
poke_master9243: He grinned. "Thanks. Hey, Sophie? Do they ever have like, dances and stuff at De Temps?"<Go>
rp_erika17: "Not until the Winter Festival." <go>
poke_master9243: "So, no parties or anytihing?"<go>
rp_erika17: "I'm sorry. Now isn't the time to celebrate, to be honest." <go>
poke_master9243: "I know... I was just a little curious was all... Anyway, what are the classes like?"<Go>
rp_erika17: "I don't know... Normal, I guess." <go>
poke_master9243: "Well, what do they teach you?
rp_erika17: "Well... It's different each year. First we learn what we're most suited for, then we learn control, then we learn to strengthen what we can do... in our fourth year we start combat training, our goal being to make up and master five original moves... Why?" <go>
poke_master9243: "Wow... Sounds like fun."<Go>
rp_erika17: "It's really hard." <go>
poke_master9243: "Either way... I'd love to be a student."<GO>
rp_erika17: She nodded, watching the brush of polish scrap over her toenails. <go>
poke_master9243: He yawned. "How long is this ride?"<Go>
rp_erika17: "Two hours." <go>
poke_master9243: "Well, then, I think I'll take a nap."<Go>
rp_erika17: "...Have a good sleep then." <go>
poke_master9243: He smiled and shortly after was snoozing. <Go>
rp_erika17: She finished painting her toes and waited for them to dry. She stared out the window, watching the landscape pass by. An hour passed, and she got up and moved with Zefus, laying him down in her lap, brushing through his hair, like something a mother would do to her child. <go>
poke_master9243: Zefus woke and stirred softly. "Morning already?"<Go>
rp_erika17: "No, it's only been an hour." <go>
poke_master9243: He looked up. "When did you move?"<go>
rp_erika17: "A few minutes ago. Am I bothering you? I can move back." <go>
poke_master9243: He smiled. "No, it's fine." He snuggled up closer. "What was it like, growing up for you, Sophie?"<Go>
rp_erika17: "What do you mean?" <go>
poke_master9243: "What was growing up like for you? What all did you do as a child?"<Go>
rp_erika17: "Well... Mai and I lived in the same little town. We'd normally play outside, either at the park, or down by the river. There's not much to talk about." <go>
poke_master9243: "Did you always have your powers? Or were they given to you, like me?"<gO>
rp_erika17: "Everyone had powers. Those that wanted to keep them went to school. Otherwise they would just fade away." <go>
poke_master9243: "Wow... It must have been hard growing up around all that." <Go>
rp_erika17: She nodded, "Yeah..." <go>
poke_master9243: (Wow... Adam added 3 whole areas...)
poke_master9243: "Well, at least you're one that kept them. It's nice to have friends like you and Mai."<Go>
rp_erika17: She smiled, "It is. Her brother is so cute." <go>
poke_master9243: "Glace... cute?"<GO>
rp_erika17: She giggled, "I love his hair. I just want to mess it up and watch him fix it." <Go>
poke_master9243: He smiled. "It is a tad to neat, huh?"<Go>
rp_erika17: She tried to stop giggling, "I really annoy Mai with my obsession with him." <go>
poke_master9243: "Obsession?" He chuckled lightly. "Well, ask him out..."<Go>
rp_erika17: "Oh!" She gasped, "I can't."
poke_master9243: "Just out for lunch or something..." <go>
rp_erika17: "I'm too nervous..." <go>
poke_master9243: "So you can ride Voltage once, but not ask Glace out for lunch?" <Go>
rp_erika17: Either will work [resume RP] "Glace is one of the top students. He doesn't care about me." <go>
poke_master9243: "It can't hurt to ask, right?"<go>
rp_erika17: She turned red, "I just can't." <go>
poke_master9243: "Well, if you say so..."<go>
rp_erika17: "Besides, Mai can't ask her crush out either." <go>
poke_master9243: He looked up sharply. "Her crush?"<Go>
rp_erika17: She nodded, "Donner." <go>
poke_master9243: "Oh... He's a good fella."<go>
rp_erika17: "She gets so distracted that she can't even produce a little breeze." <go>
poke_master9243: He laughed. "Wow..."<Go>
rp_erika17: She looked out the window, "Oh. Get ready. Our stop's coming up." <go>
poke_master9243: He sat up and grabbed his bags. "It's about time." Zefus laughed. <Go>
poke_master9243: o_o
poke_master9243: (Uhm... I gots a growlithe now... )
rp_erika17: Sophie moved back to her seat and got her bag and purse. <go> ( I Lved one up to 15 for you... I told everyone to help to for a friend... now I lied.)
poke_master9243: (I'll trade growlithes, this way your work isn't wasted and you still keep one)
poke_master9243: Zefus waited for the train to stop and got off, enjoying the crisp air again. <GO>
rp_erika17: She followed, looking around. "It's a little dark." <go>
poke_master9243: Zefus set off a spark, holding it in the air just above Sophie. "That should be enough light to the door." <Go>
rp_erika17: She smiled, "It's a good away to the school. Maybe I can try your dragon again?" <go>
poke_master9243: "Sure. I'll make him go slow this time, promise." He quickly summoned Voltage and shot himself on. "Ready?"<go>
rp_erika17: She jumped up a little. <go>
poke_master9243: Voltage dived down and caught her, letting her land softly on his back. "There are. Now go slowly to the school, Volt." The dragon nodded and began gliding. <Go>
rp_erika17: She held on, looking at the ground pass them by. <go>
poke_master9243: "It's pretty, huh?" Zefus asked, watching the landscape pass. <Go>
rp_erika17: "It really is..." <go>
poke_master9243: "It's sad that hardly anyone pays attention to the landscape anymore... They just go along on roads and planes, not caring. It's really a beautiful sight, if people would take the time to notice it..."<Go>
rp_erika17: "That's why I take the train. It moves with the land." <go>
poke_master9243: He smiled. "Exactly." Shortly after, they were standing at the front door of the school, Volt having faded away already. "Wanna come up and see Mai with me before bed?"<Go>
rp_erika17: "No... I'm really tired. Good night and thanks for the dress." <go>
poke_master9243: "You're welcome." He started to walk off, but stopped. "Oh, uhm, Sophie? Where's Donner's room?"<Go>
rp_erika17: "Um... I think it's on the third floor." <go>
poke_master9243: "Kay, thanks." He smiled and headed up to the hospital wing. <Go>
rp_erika17: It was dark. The hospital curfew was in effect and Mai was sound asleep, with a full belly, and her cuddly teddy bear trapped in a tight hug. <go>
poke_master9243: Zefus walked over quietly, despite the curfew, and kissed Mai quickly on the forehead. <go>
rp_erika17: She smiled, snuggling with Mr. Fuzz. <go>
poke_master9243: He grinned and walked out quietly. <Go>
rp_erika17: Mai yawned and turned over, squashing the poor bear under her. <go>
poke_master9243: A slight snicker escaped him as he made his way out and into the hall once more, trying to remember where the staircase was. <Go>
rp_erika17: The nearly full moon shone into the hallway through the giant stain-glass windows. <go>
poke_master9243: "Beautiful..." Zefus began walking to it, but crouched when he heard a pair of footsteps. <Go>
rp_erika17: "Are you really going to do it?"
"She requested it, and was pretty conviencing."
"Glace, you simply can't... She's your sister. How can you do it?"
"Don... the one she chose is too close to her. He's distracted. If she gets harmed, he'll refuse to battle Fonce to help her." There was a harsh silence. Donner sighed a little, "Glace... I know she'll never be like you, but you don't have to punish her like this."
"It's not a punishment. She wants this to happen. Tomorrow, her and the boy will return to the human world, and we will have to search for a replacement savior." <go>
poke_master9243: Zefus stayed where he was, barely able to believe what he was hearing. <go>
rp_erika17: "It seems a little cruel..." Donner spoke low.
"I'm allowing this to save her. I know we don't stand a chance, with or without the boy... At least I can save one." Glace heaved a sigh. <go>
poke_master9243: Zefus stood up, facing them. "I won't give up, Glace..."<Go>
rp_erika17: They looked at him. Glace giving him a sad look, "It's not you decision any more. Your actions today... and you answer to my question is enough for me." <go>
poke_master9243: "Glace... I won't let Fonce ruin this world. I won't let him kill off those who are innocent. I'll stand and fight... As a proud Caster."<Go>
rp_erika17: "If you choose this path, you cannot see Mai as a lover." <go>
poke_master9243: "I realize that... But, as my father said, sometimes you have to give up your entire world for something much more important." <Go>
rp_erika17: "If you get distracted, I'll rip your powers away and send you back without her." <go>
poke_master9243: He nodded. "Can I spend tonight in the hospital wing with her, though? I'd prefer to tell her myself in the morning." <Go>
rp_erika17: "If you must..." He said with disgust, his warm big brother character melting away. <go>
poke_master9243: Zefus sighed. "On second thought, she's sleeping far too peaceful."<Go>
rp_erika17: "Then you'll sleep outside again." <go>
poke_master9243: "I thought I'd have a spot in Donner's room?"<Go>
rp_erika17: "..." Glace walked off. Donner smiled a bit. "If you must.." <go>
poke_master9243: Zefus pulled Donner close. "What's going on? Did something happen?"<Go>
rp_erika17: "Mai wanted her powers to be taken and the two of you go to live in the human world. She knew you couldn't fight Fonce and protect her at the same time.
rp_erika17: <go>
poke_master9243: "And that's why Glace was going to send the two of us the human world... Mai..." He slumped down, leaning against the stairway post. "Ugh... this is all so confusing..."<Go>
rp_erika17: "Mai was trying to save you." <go>
poke_master9243: "I want to be with Mai... But at the same time, I want to help you be rid of Fonce... Why can't there be a simple solution to both?" <Go>
rp_erika17: "No... You can't get close to any of us." <go>
poke_master9243: He shook his head. "I'm going to slaughter him, when I fight him..."<go>
rp_erika17: "...Why?" <go>
poke_master9243: "If not for him, none of this would be so confusing..."<go>
rp_erika17: "Mai's going to be heart broken." <go>
poke_master9243: "I know..." He sighed heavier. "But it's for the good of all... Fonce could attack any time, right?" <Go>
rp_erika17: "We can manage..." <go>
poke_master9243: "I want to help... I know I wasn't given these powers for nothing... There had to be something that compelled me to run into the beam..." <Go>
rp_erika17: "...It's a hard decision. You need to explain that to Mai." <go>
poke_master9243: "I know... Do you still mind if I room with you tonight?" <Go>
rp_erika17: "Not at all." <go>
poke_master9243: "Thanks." He stood up again, hesitantly. "I really wish it wasn't as hard to make this decision..."<Go>
rp_erika17: "You do care for her. You looked like you wanted to kill Glace." <go>
poke_master9243: "I did... I was ready to, as well. But there was something in his tone..." <go>
rp_erika17: "You know... he only asked Mai to fight. It was all her decision." <go>
poke_master9243: "Really?" Zefus looked down the hall to the hospital wing. "I wonder why..."<Go>
rp_erika17: "Because she only liked you, and wanted to help." <go>
poke_master9243: "I see... And she did help me... " <Go>
rp_erika17: "But now... she loves you." <go>
poke_master9243: "And that won't work, because of Fonce..."<go>
rp_erika17: "Yes..." He nodded. "You can't play around with love. Love can get so many people hurt." <go>
poke_master9243: Zefus nodded. "Unfortunate, that may be, it is true..."
rp_erika17: Donner walked off a little, "She'll do through with it." <go>
poke_master9243: "I just wish it was more simpler..." He sighed heavily. <go>
rp_erika17: "Come. Sleep on it." <go>
poke_master9243: He nodded. "It may help." Slowly, Zefus picked up his bags and dragged them behind him. <go>
rp_erika17: He smiled, "Went shopping?" <go>
poke_master9243: "I needed some new clothes." He grinned lightly. <Go>
rp_erika17: "You should have told someone you were leaving. You could have been attacked and killed." <go>
poke_master9243: "I know... But no one was around. I had no idea where either you or Glace were."<Go>
rp_erika17: "You could have found us." <go>
poke_master9243: "You're right... I'm sorry." He sighed. <Go>
rp_erika17: "Now... off to bed." He walked to his room, right next to his classroom, and opened the door. "In you go." <go>
poke_master9243: He nodded and walked into the room. <go>
rp_erika17: The room was painted with a dark red theme. It was warm and smelled like vanilla. Donner walked in, untying his tie, pulling it off. "Rough day..." <go>
poke_master9243: "Nice room," he said, admiring the coziness of the surroundings. <Go>
rp_erika17: "Thank you. I just wish this smell would go away." <go>
poke_master9243: "Why? I love the smell of vanilla." He smiled, taking a deep breath. <Go>
rp_erika17: He opened a window, giving Zefus a strange look. <go>
poke_master9243: Zefus set his bags down by a wall and walked over to the window, looking out at the stars. "How long has it been? Since Fonce got his powers, that is?"<GO>
rp_erika17: "Believe it of not, about four years. It's remarkable that someone like that gained so much power so fast... almost like you." <go>
poke_master9243: "All that time to practice... He'll be tough for anyone to beat..."<go>
rp_erika17: "Zefus... what would you say, if I told you that you had to fight Fonce tomorrow?" <go>
poke_master9243: "I'd fight... No words to say, just that I'm ready. Fonce can't be allowed to kill off the innocent."<go>
poke_master9243:
rp_erika17: "You're not ready." Donner slipped his coat off and pulled his tie from around his neck. <go>
poke_master9243: "Ready or not, I'd fight to the death for the sake of all..." <Go>
rp_erika17: "Your fight with Mai was very impressive. I wish it were more current." <go>
poke_master9243: "How do you mean?"<Go>
rp_erika17: "You've done moves only mentioned in books. The size of your serpent... it was enormous, and the way you split the earth... marvelous." <go>
poke_master9243: He smiled. "It's nice to see that you are impressed. I've still got plenty more to learn, though."<go>
rp_erika17: He gave a yawn, "My... Did you buy any pajamas?" <go>
poke_master9243: Zefus nodded. "Yeah. I've got a few pairs." <Go>
rp_erika17: He took off his shirt, showing off his slightly fat belly. <go>
poke_master9243: He simply let go of Donner's appearance. It wouldn't matter his size. "So, what's going to happen tomorrow?" <Go>
rp_erika17: "The usual... class, study, homework..." He slipped on his dull brown pajamas, buttoning the shirt. <go>
poke_master9243: "What about me? According to what Sophie told me, I've pretty much passed the classes..." <go>
rp_erika17: "Oh, yes... There's nothing for you to do except train yourself." <go>
poke_master9243: He nodded. "Think Glace would bother teaching me?"<Go>
rp_erika17: "I wouldn't count on it. Glace really doesn't like you." <go>
poke_master9243: "Yeah... I know... Is there anyone else that knows ice?"<Go>
rp_erika17: "Well... ice is hard. The youngest person that could teach you after Glace is nearly 80." <go>
poke_master9243: "Oh... Who might that be?"<go>
rp_erika17: "You don't honestly want to train under him, do you? Not to be cruel, but he's an old fart." <go>
poke_master9243: "I'm sure it'd be better than no teacher at all..."<Go>
rp_erika17: "Well... training by yourself would be better." <go>
poke_master9243: "Hmm... Is there a Water Master besides Glace?"<Go>
rp_erika17: "There are a few, but Glace is really the best. I think Sophie is a Master." <go<
poke_master9243: His jaw dropped. "Sohpie's a master?!"<go>
rp_erika17: "I think she graduated into one last year." <go>
poke_master9243: "Oh, wow... She never told me."<go>
rp_erika17: "She focuses on rain though... Are you interested?" <go<
poke_master9243: "Of course!" <Go>
rp_erika17: "I can ask her tomorrow... Now, change and in bed." <go
poke_master9243: He nodded, going to his bags and changing into pajamas of a deep forest green color. <go>
rp_erika17: He picked up a brush and started grooming his hair, "...I highly suggest you go to Glace. He may be cruel, but he knows what he's doing... Tell me, how were you on control before your first fight with him... and how were you after?" <go>
poke_master9243: "Before... I didn't know hardly anything... But after, I learned how to control it easily, somehow." <Go>
rp_erika17: "Glace's method..." <go>
poke_master9243: "So he pushed me to make me learn it easier?"<go>
rp_erika17: "I suppose. It worked." <go>
poke_master9243: "It would seem that way..." He walked back to the window. "I never thought that my life would turn like this..."<go>
rp_erika17: "Depressed? Are you homesick?" <go>
poke_master9243: "Not really... Just surprising... Three weeks ago, I'm living in a peasant village as a lowly street rat and now I'm supposed to save the world..." <Go>
rp_erika17: He set his brush down, "Zefus...." He sighed. <go>
poke_master9243: Zefus turned around. "Yea?"<go>
rp_erika17: "I know it's painful to do,... but at least think about going back home. We'll be fine. Honestly... Fonce won't kill us. He'll let us live, until old age takes us. Only our race will suffer, and we're already out numbered." <go>
poke_master9243: He shook his head. "I don't want to go home. I had nothing but my two friends... That was it. The time I've spent here has been better than most of my life in the human world."<go>
rp_erika17: "She's sacrificing herself to save you." <go>
poke_master9243: "I know... But I can't go back to what I had..."<go>
rp_erika17: "Why not? Weren't you happy?" <go>
poke_master9243: He turned around. "Ya know... I'm not sure..." <go>
rp_erika17: "I know being a hero is fun, but after Fonce is taken down, we won't need you anymore." <go>
poke_master9243: "And then I'll live out my life..." <Go>
rp_erika17: "It could be without Mai..." <go>
poke_master9243: He sighed heavily. "I know..." <bo>
rp_erika17: "Will you train with Glace?" <go>
poke_master9243: "I need to learn Ice... So yes..."<Go>
rp_erika17: "Maybe you can make him like you." <go>
poke_master9243: "It's possible..." He smiled. "It'd be nice to have him as a friend instead of an enemy."<Go>
rp_erika17: "I totally agree with that." He stretched, "Bed time?" <go>
poke_master9243: "Go ahead. I'm gonna sit up for another minute or two."<go>
rp_erika17: "Please come to bed soon... It's not healthy staying up all night." <go>
poke_master9243: He nodded. "I will soon."<go>
rp_erika17: Donner shuffled under his covers, leaving plently of room for Zefus and turned the lights down. <go>
poke_master9243: Zefus stayed at the window, looking at the stars. "Mother... Father... I miss you both so much..." A tear rolled down his cheek and he wiped it away before laying down facing the window. "One day... I'll be with you again..." He closed his eyes and was soon asleep. <GO>
rp_erika17: Morning came fast. Donner got up at sunrise, moving quietly around Zefus, getting washed and dressed to today's teaching. <go<
poke_master9243: Zefus woke not long after 9. He crawled out of bed and stretched. "Morning already?"<Go>
rp_erika17: The room was empty. Classes started at 8 sharp. Donner was successful in letting Zefus stay in bed. <go>
poke_master9243: "Hmm... Well, I might as well get started." He dressed and went to the hospital wing. "Maitre? You in here?"<Go>
rp_erika17: She was not. A nurse was neatly fixing the beds, pressing the sheets down with some sort of steam she could produce. <go>
poke_master9243: Zefus walked to the nurse. "Excuse me, but where is Maitre?"<Go>
rp_erika17: "She left this morning, dear." <go>
poke_master9243: "Do you know where she went?"<Go>
rp_erika17: "No, I'm afraid..." She looked at him, "..." Her hand automatically slapped to his forehead, "Oh... you're a little warm. Lie down some." <go>
poke_master9243: "No, no... I'll be fine." <Go>
rp_erika17: "Child, get in his bed this instant!" <go>
poke_master9243: He shook his head. "I'm fine. I need to speak to Glace, however."<Go>
rp_erika17: She went to him and grabbed his upper arm in a tight hold, dragging him to the bed. "In!" <go>
poke_master9243: Admitting deafeat, he laid down. "Why does it matter if I'm fine? I just need to speak to Glace."<go>
rp_erika17: She shoved a thermometer in his mouth and walked off. <go>
poke_master9243: He grunted and took it out before quietly creeping from the bed. <go>
rp_erika17: Glace blocked his way out, "Get back in bed..." <go>
poke_master9243: He sighed and clambered back onto the mattress. "I was going to look for you..."<Go>
rp_erika17: He shoved the thermometer in his mouth, "No talking." <go>
rp_erika17: his = Zefus
poke_master9243: Zefus frowned, but stayed there, closing his eyes. 'Why did I bother coming up here...' <Go>
rp_erika17: "I told Mai she's staying here with you..." He looked off. <go>
poke_master9243: "You did?"<Go>
rp_erika17: "No talking. I'll freeze your mouth shut again." <go>
poke_master9243: He gulped and quickly shut his mouth. <Go>
rp_erika17: He walked off, "She didn't like my refusal." <go>
poke_master9243: 'Refusal to what?' he wondered. <go>
rp_erika17: The nurse walked back out, "Mr. Glace... what a surprise. Why, in heaven's name, are you here?"
Glace kindly took his jacket off and rolled his sleeve up, showing a series of horrible bruises.
"Mai?" She sighed. Glace nodded some. The nurse gave a giggle, "When will you learn?" She walked off, digging in a cabinet for something. <go>
poke_master9243: 'Wow... Talk about anger. I hope I never get on Mai's bad side.' <go>
rp_erika17: Glace sat on Zefus' bed, pulling the thermometer out, "...She proposed that her powers be taken, and for you and her to escape into the human world. I refused. I'm giving you another chance." <go>
poke_master9243: He nodded. "Thank you."<Go>
rp_erika17: "I'll want more than thanks. Look what she did to my bloody arm!" <go>
poke_master9243: He sighed. "I can't take the blame for her actions... But I apologize on her behalf." <Go>
rp_erika17: "You may end up like this..." <go>
poke_master9243: "I know... And I accept that."<G>
rp_erika17: "Look. I want to say I'm sorry." <go>
poke_master9243: "For what? You've done nothing wrong."<go>
rp_erika17: "I made you fight Mai." <go>
poke_master9243: "Yes... but I realize that you did so for two reasons... You wanted to see how I would react, and also for her to see first-hand how I'd progressed, am I right?"<go>
rp_erika17: "No..." He mumbled. <go>
poke_master9243: "Oh..." He sighed. "Then... why?"<go>
rp_erika17: "I told Mai you needed another test, and she offered to fight you." <go>
poke_master9243: "Oh... I see..." <Go>
rp_erika17: "And since you like to eavesdrop, I had to make you hate this girl." <go>
poke_master9243: He chuckled. "No problem. I understand."<go>
rp_erika17: "You were a little brutal with her. Pinning her down like that and - COLD!!" He jumped, landing on Zefus. The nurse pulled him up, and rubbed his arm with some medicine, "Oh, hush you baby..." <go>
poke_master9243: Zefus burst out laughing, trying to stop, but to no avail. <go>
rp_erika17: Glace stared daggers at him, suddenly grinning, "He took his thermometer out."
"What!" The nurse gasped, seeing it free from Zefus' mouth. <go>
[[brb]]
poke_master9243: "No! Glace did!" He glared back at Glace. <Go>
rp_erika17: The nurse took the thermometer and shoved it hard in Zefus mouth. <go>
(That sounded really REALLY dirty... LOL!!!)
poke_master9243: He nearly choked on the cold glass but didn't remove it. He managed to mumble out a quick line. "Thanks a lot..."<Go>
rp_erika17: "Glace..." She spoke sternly. He looked at her, "Just rub this on your arm in the morning and at night. It should clear up in a few days.
"Thanks." He smiled, smirking some at Zefus. <go>
poke_master9243: Zefus couldn't help but grin back. <go>
rp_erika17: "Feeling sick, little boy?" <go>
poke_master9243: His grin faded. "I really wish you'd stop calling me that." <go>
rp_erika17: "How old are you?" <go>
poke_master9243: "Sixteen..."<Go>
rp_erika17: "Child." He smiled some. "When you get out, come to my office. You remember where it is right?" <go>
poke_master9243: "How could I forget?" he asked mockingly. <go>
rp_erika17: Glace got up and walked out. <go>
poke_master9243: Zefus piped up so the nurse could hear him. "Can I leave now?"<Go>
rp_erika17: She went to him, taking the thermometer, "I suppose..." <go>
poke_master9243: "Thank you." He got up and quickly shuffled out of the room, heading to Glace's office.<Go>
rp_erika17: He was sitting in his office. Hearing the shuffling of feet, he got up and disappeared into his walls. <go>
poke_master9243: Zefus walked in, looking around. "Glace?"<go>
rp_erika17: The wind blew in. Several papers flew off his desk and onto the floor. <go>
poke_master9243: He began to pick up the papers, but then stopped himself. "Maitre?"<go>
rp_erika17: The floor opened under him, pulling him into the pit from before. <go>
poke_master9243: Zefus sighed quietly, and he leaned against the wall. <go>
rp_erika17: The top grew bars over it, instead of completely covering up. The pit shook, closing around Zefus. <go>
poke_master9243: "Got a different plan, eh?" He smirked and set a blaze around the room. <Go>
rp_erika17: The pit shifted, filling with ice cold water. Glace peered over the edge. <go>
poke_master9243: Zefus shivered as the water touched his skin. He closed his eyes. 'He's expecting me to control the water...' <go>
rp_erika17: He smirked, "It's not too cold, is it?" <go>
poke_master9243: "Not at all..." He slowly breathed in and out, feeling the flow of water around him. <go>
rp_erika17: "I don't want you to control it." <go>
poke_master9243: "Then what? You expect me to get out?"<Go>
rp_erika17: "No... You belong to me now." <go>
poke_master9243: "I belong to no one!" He leaped up at the edge, lightning sparking all over his body. <go>
rp_erika17: Ice jutted out, pinning him in midair. Glace laughed. <go>
poke_master9243: Fire erupted around Zefus's body, melting the ice keeping him trapped. He held onto the wall as best as he could. <go>
rp_erika17: The water rushed up over him. <go>
poke_master9243: He thrashed around in the water, slowly getting weaker. 'No... He can't... I won't... I will not give up!' He swam as hard as he could, trying to reach the surface. <go>
rp_erika17: Glace walked off, as the water froze into ice. <go>
poke_master9243: 'You won't do this to me... not now, Glace!' His body exploded into fire and he punched at the ice hard. <go>
rp_erika17: Glace appeared beside him, wrapping his arms and legs around Zefus. "Give up, Child..." <go>
poke_master9243: "What... what are you doing?"<go>
rp_erika17: "Helping you into your forever sleep." <go>
poke_master9243: "I will not let you do this..." The fire rose in temperature and he held on tight to Glace. <go>
rp_erika17: The water got colder. Glace held on tight. Something moved around them in the water. <go>
poke_master9243: "What... What's that?"<Go>
rp_erika17: "A friend... Deal with me or him." <go>
poke_master9243: He thought. 'The other master...' Zefus focused intensely, the fire getting hotter still. "Neither of you will defeat me... I will not give up!"<go>
rp_erika17: "If I can't... he will.... by eating you!" <go>
poke_master9243: "Then I will fight both of you!" He kept punching at the ice, trying to escape. <go>
rp_erika17: Soon Glace broke apart, turning back to ice and sunking to the bottom. <go>
poke_master9243: "What... ?" He pushed aside the confusion and kept trying to escape. <go>
rp_erika17: Something swam around him, hissing. <go>
poke_master9243: "Don't count on it!" He raised the fire as hot as he could get it, warming the water slowly. <go>
rp_erika17: The creature in the water rushed past him, moving in a blur, the light shimmering off its silvery, icy scales. <go>
poke_master9243: "So I was wrong... But..." It struck him. "Glace is certainly surprising." He called Voltage out and the dragon swam around him. <go>
rp_erika17: The serpent-like ice dragon was offended by the other. With fury, it slammed into Voltage's side, clamping its jaws around the dragon's neck before snapping it. Glace's dragon was something to behold, nearly twice as big as Voltage, with large icy spikes down its back, and enough teeth to spar. It let out a hissing roar, looking to Zefus. <go>
poke_master9243: "Amazing... Glace is definitely strong... But I won't admit defeat this time. I've given up too many times." He shot a fury of electric waves at the serpent. <go>
rp_erika17: This only made the beast madder. With another hiss, it was coiled around Zefus, crushing him. <go>
poke_master9243: He screamed in pain, but fought still, shooting sparks up and down the serpent's body. <go>
rp_erika17: The dragon only got madder. It didn't hurt, but it was insulted that such a small thing could have the guts to attack it. <go>
poke_master9243: He kept on trying, despite his constant weakening. <go>
rp_erika17: Glace sighed, speaking loud enough for Zefus to hear, "Please. Give up. He's really pissed off this time." <go>
poke_master9243: "Never..." He shot as many blasts as he could through the water, trying to escape. <go>
rp_erika17: "Fine... Kill him." Glace sighed, shaking his head. The dragon was pleased. His sharp teeth sank into Zefus' shoulder. <go>
poke_master9243: Zefus howled in agony. Blood seeped out of his shoulder and into the water. "I will not give up..." Motivation to keep his life energized him and he sent a large bolt of electricity up the dragon's spine. <go>
rp_erika17: The dragon reared back, smashing his spiked tail into Zefus' back. <go>
poke_master9243: A spike went into his back and he squirmed. "I can't end like this..." He focused his mind strongly on his powers, but Mai came to mind. <go>
rp_erika17: The dragon swam to the surface and lay Zefus on the floor. Glace glanced at him, "What? Not hungry." The dragon hissed. Glace laughed, "I guess he is considered junk food." <go>
poke_master9243: He lay there, coughing up blood and water, grunting in pain at the same time. <go>
rp_erika17: "I told you to give up.... You need to listen." <go>
poke_master9243: "I thought... it was... a test..."<Go>
rp_erika17: "I would have told you." <go>
poke_master9243: "Would you really? I find it hard to believe..."<go>
rp_erika17: "I find it hard to believe you thought that was a test." <go>
poke_master9243: "Why is that?"<go>
rp_erika17: "My dragon really could have killed you." <go>
poke_master9243: "Yours seems to have a mind of it's own... how is that?"<go>
rp_erika17: "He's stubborn." <go>
poke_master9243: He laughed painfully. "Sorry... I don't know what I was thinking..."<Go>
rp_erika17: Glace sighed. "You're almost as stubborn as he is." <go>
poke_master9243: "Ugh..." He held his hand over his mouth. "Where's a toilet at?"<go>
rp_erika17: "Just puke on the floor." <go>
poke_master9243: He rolled over so as not to face Glace and vomit poured from his mouth. He coughed disgustedly. <Go>
rp_erika17: "...Sorry. It was probably his poison." <go>
poke_master9243: "Maybe... but who cares... It's over now..." He didn't roll back over, but stayed facing the vomit. <go>
rp_erika17: "What are you talking about?" <go>
poke_master9243: "The fight against your beast is over for now..." <go>
rp_erika17: "I don't know. He holds a really bad grudge. He'll want a rematch, until you beat him, or he gets bored." <go>
poke_master9243: Zefus only shivered slightly. He tried to get up, but was so shaky, he couldn't stand. <Go>
rp_erika17: "Rest. You'll need it." <go>
poke_master9243: He nodded, still shaking. <go>
rp_erika17: "I'm actually surprised you stayed consious for that long." <go>
poke_master9243: "So am I... I don't know how I did it..."<Go>
rp_erika17: "You seem to keep surprising me." <go>
poke_master9243: "I surprise myself..."<Go>
rp_erika17: "You do realize I'm going to keep pushing you..." <go>
poke_master9243: He nodded. "Not so hard next time, please... I felt like I was going to die..."<Go>
rp_erika17: "Don't worry..." <go>
poke_master9243: "What do you mean...?"<Go>
rp_erika17: He smiled, "Do you want a bed, or a cot?" <go>
poke_master9243: "Either is fine..."<Go>
rp_erika17: Glace got up and snapped his fingers. The ice dragon coiled around Zefus, picking him up and gliding out the window, to the next floor down. <go>
poke_master9243: "Air too..." He smirked. "You don't stop surprising me, Glace..."<go>
rp_erika17: "No." Glace dropped down from the above room. "Can't your beast fly?" <go>
poke_master9243: "Yes... why?"<Go>
rp_erika17: "Mine is the same." <go>
poke_master9243: "Oh.... So any elemental beast can fly?"<go>
rp_erika17: "Pretty much. But focusing hard enough to make it happen is difficult." <go>
poke_master9243: "Oh... I see..." <Go>
rp_erika17: "Rest.." Glace smiled some. The dragon dropped him on a bed. "If you feel sick, just find a garbage can." <go>
poke_master9243: He nodded. "Glace... thanks."<go>
rp_erika17: "...I'll bring you some lunch." <go>
poke_master9243: "Okay... Can you have Mai and Sophie come and see me? I want to talk to them..." <go>
rp_erika17: He paused at the door. "...Good idea." <go>
poke_master9243: "Thank you." He closed his eyes, hoping to get in a little rest before they arrived. Soon after, he fell asleep. <go>
rp_erika17: Glace sent the entire time in his office, working. Soon, lunch came, and he went to get some lunch. Before you know it, Glace was with Zefus, shaking him awake. <go>
poke_master9243: "Wah?!" Zefus's eyes shot open. "What is it?! What's happening?!"<Go>
rp_erika17: "...Lunch. Eat up." <go>
poke_master9243: "Oh..." He laughed weakly. "I thought it was something serious... like... well, I don't know..." He took the plate and slowly ate. <go>
rp_erika17: Glace backed off and sat in a chair. "Good sleep?" <go>
poke_master9243: "Quite a good nap, yes. I saw my parents..." He smiled. "They were always so kind..."<Go>
rp_erika17: "No nightmares? You woke with a start." <go>
poke_master9243: "Oh..." He felt a light blush creep into his cheeks. "It's nothing..."<go>
rp_erika17: "It was the poison probably." <go>
poke_master9243: "Yeah... probably..." He began eating faster. <Go>
rp_erika17: Glace leaned back in his chair, "Maybe you need to rest until dinner." <go>
poke_master9243: "I don't know... I'd like to get out of here. Already, the wound is healing." <Go>
rp_erika17: "The poison causes terrible hallutionations. Would you really like to be walking down the hall and suddenly see it on fire?" <go>
poke_master9243: "No..." <go>
rp_erika17: "Rest then." <go>
poke_master9243: He groaned, but didn't bother getting up. <go>
rp_erika17: "Are you finished?" <go>
poke_master9243: "Yea... It was good. Hey, did the girls ever come up to see me?"<go>
rp_erika17: "No. I didn't get them yet. You can see them before dinner." <go>
poke_master9243: "Alright. Thanks."<go>
rp_erika17: He took the plate and walked to the door. <go>
poke_master9243: "Glace... I know you don't really like me... But I'd like it if we could be friends..." <Go>
rp_erika17: "Choose your words carefully..." <go>
poke_master9243: "I know..." <Go>
rp_erika17: "Have a good nap." He bowed some, closing the door. <go>
poke_master9243: Zefus closed his eyes and went to sleep once more. <Go>
rp_erika17: Glace smirked, walking off, preparing for dinner. Hours later, Zefus was again woken up. "Get up." <go>
poke_master9243: "Hm?" He woke slowly. "Dinner already?"<Go>
rp_erika17: "My office... now." He walked out. <go>
poke_master9243: "Ugh..." He got from bed and slowly walked down the hall, knocking on the office door. <Go>
rp_erika17: "Enter." He smiled. <go>
poke_master9243: Zefus took a step inside and was chilled from the cold room. It didn't feel as cold to him as before, but still enough to send a shiver up his spine. <go>
rp_erika17: He got up and went to Zefus, "Are you well rested?" <go>
poke_master9243: "A little sore, but otherwise, yes."<go>
rp_erika17: "Good... in the pit." He pointed. <go>
poke_master9243: "Ugh... what now?" Slowly he walked and took a jump down into it. <go>
rp_erika17: Glace followed him. The pit was the large room from the battle Glace had with Zefus. He walked off some, "Ready for training?" <go>
poke_master9243: "What kind of training?"<go>
rp_erika17: "Life or death." <go>
poke_master9243: He sighed and took a stance. "Ready."<go>
rp_erika17: "Not you." He smirked. <go>
poke_master9243: "Then who?"<Go>
rp_erika17: He chuckled. Two slabs of ice burst from the floor. Frozen to the slabs were Mai and Sophie, struggling to get free. <go>
poke_master9243: "What's this? What have you done to them?"<Go>
rp_erika17: "Just a little kidnap. I want to see if you are careless of other lives as you are with your own." <go>
poke_master9243: "And what is it you expect me to do?"<go>
rp_erika17: "I don't care... Aren't you curious at all?" <go>
poke_master9243: "Curious to what?"<go>
rp_erika17: "If they are real..." <go>
poke_master9243: His eyes widened. Glace had tricked him with duplicates before. There wasn't a doubt in his mind that he'd do it again. <go>
rp_erika17: "Want to find out? Attack one." <go>
poke_master9243: He hesitated. If they were real, he'd be hurting his friends. But if not, they'd only melt away. <go>
rp_erika17: "Well... why so hesitant? Fonce can do this trick to." <go>
poke_master9243: Zefus growled. "Forgive me, friends..." He shot forth hot flames at the two. <go>
rp_erika17: Glace blocked it with ice. <go>
poke_master9243: He leaped into the air, firing shockwaves and flames at them. <go>
rp_erika17: Glace blocked all his attacks, "You really want to hurt them, don't you?"
rp_erika17: <go>
poke_master9243: He landed by the ice. "Not at all..." A grin crept onto his face. <Go>
rp_erika17: "Hm?" Glace stared at him. <go>
poke_master9243: "Hehe... You thought you had me figured out, didn't you?" <GO>
rp_erika17: "So... you're trying to save them?" <go>
poke_master9243: "Yes... and no..." <Go>
rp_erika17: "Explain. Show me your progress." <go>
poke_master9243: "Gladly..." He smirked as electricty surged over his body. It sprouted from him and hit the ground, creating a clone. The chain continued, creating more and more of Zefus. <go>
rp_erika17: "...Great, more annoying children." <go>
poke_master9243: They all yelled in unision. "We are not children!" Flames erupted forth from each, creating an enormous inferno. <go>
rp_erika17: "Melt my ice, and I will kill them." <go>
poke_master9243: They raised the inferno, creating a large ball of flames and heat. "Feel our power!" The ball slammed down on Glace. <go>
rp_erika17: Glace shot out an attack at his hostages before dealing with the fire. Both Mai and Sophie cried out in pain as a large icicle speared through their stomachs. <go>
poke_master9243: They glared at Glace and held the ball down on him. "How dare you?!"<go>
rp_erika17: "I warned you. This is your fault." He managed to launch a few more icy spears at the girls. <go>
poke_master9243: Fire erupted in the path, melting the ice that was shot towards them. "You didn't say if I attacked you!" <Go>
rp_erika17: Mai coughed, "Ze...Zefus..." She shook with a chill and from weakness. <go>
poke_master9243: "Mai... forgive me for what I have done... and what I am going to do..." Zefus pulled the clones back and summoned Voltage. However, he didn't stop there. More came: fire and earth. They fused into one. "Elementalist!" <Go>
rp_erika17: Glace watched, closing his eyes, smiling some. <go>
poke_master9243: Zefus watched the dragon, surprised that he'd actually summoned such a beast. <go>
rp_erika17: "If you're going to attack... kill me." Glace spoke. <go>
poke_master9243: The dragon swooped and coiled around Glace. "Familiar isn't it?" It held him tight, trapping him from movement as Zefus melted the ice holding the girls. <Go>
rp_erika17: Glace groaned, summoning his icy beast. <go>
poke_master9243: "Don't think on it!" Elementalist squeezed Glace tighter. <go>
rp_erika17: He let out a cry, still trying. <go>
poke_master9243: Zefus quickly melted the remainder of the ice, keeping his eyes on Glace. <go>
rp_erika17: Mai looked up at him, smiling some. <go>
poke_master9243: "Don't thank me yet..." <go>
rp_erika17: She groaned in pain, the blood pouring from her stomach. <go>
poke_master9243: He pulled ice from the ground, holding it on her to keep the blood from seeping out too fast. <Go>
rp_erika17: Mai went limp, her head falling back. <go>
poke_master9243: He yelled in agony. "You monster!"<go>
rp_erika17: Mai grew cold and stiff. Glace watched, trying to do something. <go>
poke_master9243: "No, Mai... you can't leave me..." <Go>
rp_erika17: Glace grunted, holding his arm out. <go>
poke_master9243: Elementalist swooped down, dropping Glace. "Heal her!"<Go>
rp_erika17: "No... there's no point." <go>
poke_master9243: "Why?! How can you say that?!"<Go>
rp_erika17: He laughed. <go>
poke_master9243: "Of course... She's not real..." Zefus stood up, facing Glace. "This is the test..." <Go>
rp_erika17: "...Yes." He groaned, collapsing. <go>
poke_master9243: Zefus climbed onto Elementalist. "Good-bye..." He flew out of the pit and into the school yard. <go>
rp_erika17: Glace groaned again, blacking out. <go>
poke_master9243: He went around, frantically looking for someone he knew, telling all he saw that the nurse needed to get to Glace's office. <go>
rp_erika17: As Zefus ran around the school, a young girl with jet black hair and an almost snooty look on her face was out in the courtyard practicing. <go>
poke_master9243: He went to her. "Excuse me, do you know where Sophie, Maitre, Donner, or Fumare are?"<Go>
rp_erika17: She turned, her fingers sparking some, "...No, I don't, which is surprising." <go>
poke_master9243: He blinked. "You're Fumare's girlfriend!"<go>
rp_erika17: She gasped, "How'd you know?" <go>
poke_master9243: He mentioned that his girlfriend was the master of electricity here..."<Go>
rp_erika17: She blushed, "He called me a master?" <go>
poke_master9243: "Yea. Anyway, I need to find Sophie or Mai... Can you help me? Glace is hurt..."<go>
rp_erika17: "Glace? How'd he get hurt?" <go>
poke_master9243: "Erm... It was one of my tests..."<go>
rp_erika17: "Tests? Are you a student of his?" <go>
poke_master9243: "Not exactly..." He sighed and quickly explained everything to her. <go>
rp_erika17: Suddenly, Zefus' shoulder caught on fire. <go>
poke_master9243: He spun around, looking carefully. "Fumare!"<Go>
rp_erika17: "Get away from my girl, you peasant!" He punched him hard in the face. <go>
poke_master9243: Zefus stumbled back and glared at Fumare before running at him and kneeing him in the stomach. "I was only talking to her, you moron!"<go>
rp_erika17: He doubled over and sent an elbow into Zefus. <go>
poke_master9243: He grunted and pushed Fumare down. "You'll stay down if you know what's good for you."<Go>
rp_erika17: He got up, "Get away." <go>
poke_master9243: "Where's Donner?"<GO>
rp_erika17: "With people that matter." <go>
poke_master9243: He grabbed Fumare's shirt. "WHERE?!"<GO>
rp_erika17: "Piss off." <go>
poke_master9243: He glared tighter. "Tell me," he said through gritted teeth. <Go>
rp_erika17: (glared tighter? lol) "Listen, little boy, release me at once." <go>
poke_master9243: "Not until you tell me!"<go>
rp_erika17: He *****edslapped Zefus, "Release me, dog!" <go>
poke_master9243: Zefus felt his cheek and grinned. "Fine." He pushed Fumare back and trapped him in the earth. "Stay." <go>
rp_erika17: He grunted, "Let me go!
rp_erika17: <go>
poke_master9243: He smiled. "Good boy. Now tell me where Don is."<Go>
rp_erika17: "Let me go! Such a child!" <go>
poke_master9243: "You're the one who hit me for talking to her." He nudged his head in the girl's direction. "Now where is he?"<Go>
rp_erika17: Fumare cursed, trying to get out of the ground. The girl trembled in fear, "I... I don't know." <go>
poke_master9243: "Hmph... No use." He walked off a little. "Next time, don't be such an ass." Zefus allowed Fumare out and kept walking. <go>
rp_erika17: Fumare growled, running after him, "Bastard!" He swung at the boy. <go>
poke_master9243: "You don't want to fight me..." He ducked and sent an elbow into Fumare's side. <go>
rp_erika17: Fumare coughed, countering with a knee in Zefus' back. <go>
poke_master9243: "Damn you!" He pushed Fumare down to the ground and held him there. "Trust me... I'm not one to mess with."<Go>
rp_erika17: "Oh... maybe I want to." <go>
poke_master9243: "Do so you'll regret it..." He pulled cuffs onto Fumare's wrists and ankles from the earth. "Now," he said smiling, "don't move."<Go>
rp_erika17: He struggling, "Let me go!" <go>
poke_master9243: "No." Zefus walked off. <go>
rp_erika17: Fumare screamed. The girl cried out, blasting Zefus in the back with a strong burst of electricity. <go>
poke_master9243: He fell into the dirt. "Ugh... The girlfriend comes to help."<go>
rp_erika17: She runs up, "Let him go..." She had a bolt of lighning coiled around her arms like it was an exotic snake. <go>
poke_master9243: "No. Find someone else to help. I've got more important matters to deal with." <go>
rp_erika17: Tears grew in her eyes, "Let him up now!" <go>
poke_master9243: "Ugh... Fine... But neither of you come after me." He released Fumare and kept walking. <go>
rp_erika17: Fumare picked up a rock and flung it at Zefus, striking him on the head. <go>
poke_master9243: It hit him and he fell to the ground. "I warned you..." Zefus spun around, pebbles rising off the ground and swirling around him. <go>
rp_erika17: "I didn't come after you. I stayed right here..." He taunted. <go>
poke_master9243: "Doesn't matter." He began flinging them at Fumare, hitting his feet. <go>
rp_erika17: He danced around, building up a flame and whipping it at Zefus. <go>
poke_master9243: Zefus grinned and grabbed the whip. "Not so wise are you?"<go>
rp_erika17: He gasped, "**** you, brat." <go>
poke_master9243: He jerked on it hard. <go> (lolz XD)
rp_erika17: (Fumare was oddly aroused.) He grunted, "...Let go." <go>
poke_master9243: "No..." Zefus pulled the whip, sending Fumare flying behind him. "Now go away..." He walked off. <go> (That'd be so weird with his girlfriend right there XD)
rp_erika17: "You monster!" The girl ran to Zefus' beating on him with soft fists. <go>
poke_master9243: Zefus held her off. "For the love of..." He grunted and half-dragged her to Fumare. <Go>
rp_erika17: She cried, "Let go! You're hurting me." <go>
poke_master9243: He dropped her by Fumare. "Here... Lovebirds." Zefus walked off. <go>
rp_erika17: She hugged onto Fumare, crying. He hugged her, sighing. <go>
poke_master9243: "I warned you... and you didn't listen." Zefus stopped as he said the words. "I sound like Glace..."<Go>
rp_erika17: "You may sound like him," Fumare mumbled, "But you are not him. You'll never be that great." <go>
poke_master9243: "I don't care if I'm great like Glace..." <Go>
rp_erika17: "Just leave us alone..." <go>
poke_master9243: Zefus called his dragon and flew to the school entrance. He ran inside and immediately went to the hospital wing to see if someone had come to the nurse about Glace. <gO>
rp_erika17: Donner sat in the hospital, reading a magazine, sipping on some tea. <go>
poke_master9243: "Donner! There you are!"<go>
rp_erika17: He looked up, "Hm?" He spilled some tea in his lap and jumped up, "Hot hot hot." <go>
poke_master9243: "It's Glace... He... he tested me... he's hurt bad."<gO>
rp_erika17: "He is?... How bad?" <go>
poke_master9243: "He fainted... that's the most I know."<Go>
rp_erika17: "What happened?" <go>
poke_master9243: "My... my dragon... it.. it hurt him... I lost control and was ready to kill him, Donner..." <go>
rp_erika17: He stared at Zefus, "Kill him...? It was just a test!" <go>
poke_master9243: "I know... I... I didn't know what came over me..."<go>
rp_erika17: "...Get out." <go>
poke_master9243: "Donner, I'm sorry... I really am..." Zefus cried as he ran out of the room. <go>
rp_erika17: Donner fell back in his chair, shaking in fear and confusion. <go>
poke_master9243: He stopped by the stairs, not moving. "I've hurt everyone I've seen here..."<go>
rp_erika17: Lightning flashed outside, illuminating the hallways. <go>
poke_master9243: He looked out the window. "What... what's going on?" <Go>
rp_erika17: Fumare's girlfriend sat outside crying, as Sophie sat beside her trying to get her to stop. <go>
poke_master9243: Zefus felt bad for what he'd done and walked outside, going to them cautiously. <go>
rp_erika17: Lightning struck the ground with fury as the girl cried. <go>
poke_master9243: "Sophie? Is... is she going to be okay?"<GO>
rp_erika17: She looked up, "Zefus..." The girl looked up, "He's the one! He beat up Fumey for nothing!" <go>
poke_master9243: He gulped, but shakily nodded. "It... it wasn't for nothing..."<go>
rp_erika17: "Then what for? Power? Honor? You trapped him in the ground. If I didn't stop you, you'd hurt him like you did Mai-Mai!" <go>
poke_master9243: He cowered, but went to Sophie. "I... I have to leave..."<Go>
rp_erika17: 'Zefus... " She got up and walked off. <go>
poke_master9243: He grabbed her hand. "Sophie... listen, please... I have to leave De Temps... I'm afraid of myself... I can't let it happen again..."<go>
rp_erika17: "Please don't go." <go>
poke_master9243: "Sophie... Glace... he just tested me... I... I wanted to kill him... I felt power that I've never had, Sophie... If that happens again..." He shivered, thinking about it. <Go>
rp_erika17: She looked down, "At least tell Mai goodbye." <go>
poke_master9243: He nodded. "I'm sorry to go... but it might be the only solution..." Zefus hugged her tight. "I'll miss both of you so much..."<go>
rp_erika17: "Tell Mai goodbye... please. She loves you so much." <go>
poke_master9243: "I love her too... I had the choice to go with her to the human world... and now I've wasted it..." <Go>
rp_erika17: She looked down. "She should be in her room right now." <go>
poke_master9243: "Come with me... please..."<go>
rp_erika17: She looked at the girl, nodding, "Ok." <go>
poke_master9243: Zefus walked to the girl and held her hand. "I'm sorry for what I did..." With a quick wave, he called forth his dragon, shaking from its appearance this time. <go>
rp_erika17: She looked in his eyes, "No you're not. Fumare told me how you beat him up as soon as you got here. I thought he was kidding, but you're just like that bully Fonce!" <go<
poke_master9243: He cowered back, shaking. "I... I..." <go>
rp_erika17: She got up and stormed off, the lightning following her. Sophie whimpered, looking to Zefus, "...You're not like him. That was a terrible thing for her to say." <go<
poke_master9243: "No... she's right... I'm... I'm a monster..."<go>
rp_erika17: "You're not!" <go>
poke_master9243: "Sophie... I nearly killed Glace the first time I fought him... I hurt Mai horribly... I wanted Glace dead today..."<Go>
rp_erika17: She looked down, "If you leave...." She turned, crying some. "How can you abandon us!?" <go<
poke_master9243: He went back to her. "I won't abandon you... I just can't stay at the school..."<go>
rp_erika17: "Please try..." <go>
poke_master9243: "I... I don't know..."<go>
rp_erika17: "Do it for Mai." <go>
poke_master9243: He nodded. "I'll try... but I can't make any promises..."<go.
rp_erika17: She smiled some. "Come give me a hug." <go>
poke_master9243: He smiled and held her tight in a hug. "Thank you, Sophie... thank you so much..."<Go
rp_erika17: She hugged him back, "Please don't leave us.." <go>
poke_master9243: "I don't want to..." He sighed. "Let's go see Mai."<go>
rp_erika17: She released him, "Come on." She picked up her bag and ran off. <go>
poke_master9243: He dashed after her, looking around. <go>
rp_erika17: Sophie made a bee-line for her room, finding Mai in bed.<go>
poke_master9243: Zefus was panting by the time he caught up. "My, you're fast."<gO>
rp_erika17: "I'm a good runner." <go>
poke_master9243: "I can tell..." He caught his breath before looking at the bed, seeing Mai. <go>
rp_erika17: She was curled up, sleeping with her teddy bear. Her homework was spread around her, half done. <go>
poke_master9243: He sat down beside her, taking his hand through her hair. "Mai..." <Go>
rp_erika17: She groaned, "...Donner, that's enough..." <go>
poke_master9243: "Should I wake her?"<go>
rp_erika17: "No... What is Donner doing?" She got closer. <go>
poke_master9243: "He was in the hospital wing last I saw..." <gO>
rp_erika17: "No... Dream-Donner." She smiled, getting closer. <go>
poke_master9243: "I... don't know..." He held Mai's hand, wondering what she was seeing. <go>
rp_erika17: Mai rolled in his arms. <go>
poke_master9243: He was pulled a bit and ended up half-laying on her. A blush showed in his cheeks. <go>
rp_erika17: Sophie smiled, "Do you want me to leave you alone?" <go>
poke_master9243: "I... erm... I don't know..."<go>
rp_erika17: "I'll be right back then." She giggled and walked out. <go>
poke_master9243: He blushed, laying down with Mai, holding her tight. "Mai... I love you..."<go>
rp_erika17: "No more homework." <go>
poke_master9243: He smiled. "Silly girl..."<go>
rp_erika17: Mai snuggled into him, nuzzling on his chest. <go>
poke_master9243: He rubbed her back slightly. "If only you knew how I felt..."<Go>
rp_erika17: Her eyes opened a little, "..." <go>
poke_master9243: "Mai..." He smiled. <go>
rp_erika17: "...Hmm... Zefus?" <go>
poke_master9243: "Yea... It's me."<go>
rp_erika17: "You're warm." <go>
poke_master9243: He chuckled. "You are too." <Go>
rp_erika17: She smiled, "...I've missed you." <go>
poke_master9243: "I missed you too..." He kissed her cheek. <go>
rp_erika17: She put a hand on his cheek. <go>
poke_master9243: He smiled. "Mai..." <Go>
rp_erika17: She forced his head to her, locking her lips on his. She moaned a little, giving him his first real kiss. <go>
poke_master9243: He hesitated at first, but closed his eyes, kissing her back. <go>
rp_erika17: Her arms went around his neck, as her started to lay on him. <go>
poke_master9243: He slid his arms around her as well. <Go>
rp_erika17: She pulled back, looking into his eyes. <go>
poke_master9243: He smiled, unable to say anything. <go>
rp_erika17: She smiled, laughing a little, hugging him close.
rp_erika17: <go>
poke_master9243: Zefus held Mai tight. "I... I love you..."<go>
rp_erika17: She blushed, "No... I love you." <go>
poke_master9243: He laughed, holding her tighter. <go>
rp_erika17: She smiled, "How has your day been?" <go>
poke_master9243: His smile faded. "Mai... I need to talk to you..." <go>
rp_erika17: "Hm? Bad day...?" <go>
poke_master9243: "Kinda..." He sat up. "Mai... I might have to leave..." <go>
rp_erika17: She frowned, "No..." <go>
poke_master9243: "It's not set in stone..." He sighed heavily and explained what had happened that day. <go>
rp_erika17: She covered her mouth, "He... He really did that to... us?" <go>
poke_master9243: "Yes... And... after what I did... I doubt he'll ever trust me again..."<Go>
rp_erika17: She looked down, "We'll run off together." <go>
poke_master9243: "Are... are you sure?"<Go>
rp_erika17: "Please. I can't let you go. You're my mistake." <go>
poke_master9243: "It's up to Glace..." <gO>
rp_erika17: "Maybe you need to go back to him." <go>
poke_master9243: "Probably... There's no telling what he'll do though..."<go>
rp_erika17: "I'll protect you." <go>
poke_master9243: "I can't let you do that... I have to take the punishment he gives me..."<go>
rp_erika17: She sighed, "I understand. Do you want to go now?" <go>
poke_master9243: "Maybe... It might be for the best."<Go>
rp_erika17: She got up and fixed her hair. <go>
poke_master9243: He kissed her. "I hope to see you soon." <gO.
rp_erika17: "I want to go with you." <go>
poke_master9243: Zefus nodded. "If you're sure...",gO>
rp_erika17: "He's my brother. I want to..." <go>
poke_master9243: "Alright... Let's go."<go>
rp_erika17: She pulled her shoes on and headed out the door, "Where is he?" <go>
poke_master9243: "Uhmm... In his office... If he's still there."<go>
rp_erika17: "Lead the way, and hurry." <go>
poke_master9243: He nodded, quickly heading to Glace's office. As he entered, he cautiously looked over the edge of the pit. <go>
rp_erika17: She did the same, "It's really dark down there." <go>
poke_master9243: "Come on..." He grabbed her hand and leaped down. <go>
rp_erika17: She screamed, having it echo loudly in the pit. <go>
poke_master9243: "Shhh..." <go>
rp_erika17: She whimpered, "What were you thinking? There could have been spikes of ice down here!" <go>
poke_master9243: "Don't worry..." He lit a flame, providing illumination. <Go>
rp_erika17: She shook as the single flame hit the ice and made the entire room visible. In the middle, Glace lay on the floor, surrounded by his ice best, who was trying to get him to wake up. <go>
poke_master9243: Zefus shivered. "Oh my..." <go>
rp_erika17: Mai shook, "...Glace." <go>
poke_master9243: Zefus took a careful step forward. "Please, no..."<go>
rp_erika17: "...I thought you said you wanted to kill him... not that you did." <go>
poke_master9243: "I... I didn't think I did..." He walked forth more, moving to Glace's body. <Go>
rp_erika17: The ice dragon hissed, snarling at Zefus. <go>
poke_master9243: "Shh... I want to help..."<go>
rp_erika17: Mai pulled him away. "No... You can't help." <go>
poke_master9243: "He may just be unconscious..."<ggo>
rp_erika17: Mai let Zefus go, "...He won't let you near him." <go>
poke_master9243: "I have to make sure..." Zefus walked forth more, being careful. <go>
rp_erika17: The ice dragon growled, snapping at him. <go>
poke_master9243: He kept on, walking slower. <go>
rp_erika17: Mai followed Zefus' slow lead. She kept her eyes on the dragon. <go>
poke_master9243: Zefus appraoched Glace's body and knelt down. "Glace..."<Go>
rp_erika17: The ice dragon reared back and struck at Zefus. Mai was quick, having known the beast. She made her sword, blocking his jaws from Zefus. <go>
poke_master9243: "Mai!" He got up quickly. <Go>
rp_erika17: "I'm fine..." She struggled, pushing back on the dragon's mouth. <go>
poke_master9243: "Okay..." He knelt back down, feeling for a pulse on Glace's neck and wrist. <go>
rp_erika17: Glace was ice cold, mostly sealed in an ice body cast. <go>
poke_master9243: "Please... don't be gone..."<go>
rp_erika17: Mai screamed as the ice dragon chomped down on her, thrashing his head around violently. <go>
poke_master9243: "LET HER GO!" He shot at the beasts head. <go>
rp_erika17: The dragon looked at him, flinging Mai aside. <go>
poke_master9243: "NO!" He shot forth, trying to catch Mai. <go>
rp_erika17: Her body was completely froze, the same horrible look of pain on her face as when she was being thrashed. <go>
poke_master9243: "No... No..." He reared back in agony and fired several hot bursts of flame. <Go>
rp_erika17: The dragon hissed, slithering to him. <go>
poke_master9243: He glared at the serpent. "Leave Mai alone..."<go>
rp_erika17: The dragon continued for Zefus. <go>
poke_master9243: He pulled back from it. "Stop..." <go>
rp_erika17: It lunged for Zefus, stopping inches from gobbling him up. <go>
poke_master9243: He gasped, sweat trickling down his neck. <go>
rp_erika17: The ice turned to snow and gently fall down to the floor. Glace's shaky hand was lifted slightly, calling the beast off. <go>
poke_master9243: "Glace! You're... alright..."<Go>
rp_erika17: His hand fell as he went limp again. <go>
poke_master9243: "No..." He took Mai with him, melting the ice off her, quickly defrosting her. <Go>
rp_erika17: She was still cold, shivering, trying to get warm. <go>
poke_master9243: He held her close, still heating her up. "Mai, I'm so sorry..."<go>
rp_erika17: "S-s-s-so... c-c-c-col-cold." <go>
poke_master9243: He held her tighter. "Shhh..."<go>
rp_erika17: "Wh-what ab-b-bout Gla-ace?" <go>
poke_master9243: "I... I don't know..." <Go>
rp_erika17: "Ch-ch-check on hi-him." <go>
poke_master9243: He nodded, once again feeling for a pulse. <Go>
rp_erika17: Glace moaned a little. <go>
poke_master9243: "Glace... please, wake..."<go>
rp_erika17: Ice started to grow over him. <go>
poke_master9243: "What... what's happening, Mai?"<Go>
rp_erika17: "I th-think.... healing." <go>
poke_master9243: He held her tighter. "I hope..."<Go>
rp_erika17: "Take his to the hospital.. I can wait." <go>
poke_master9243: "I'm taking you both..." He picked up Glace while holding Mai and pulled out his dragon, using it to fly up to the hospital window. "Help, please!" <Go>
rp_erika17: ("pulled out his dragon"? XD) The nurse whacked him on the head, "Quiet!" <go>
poke_master9243: He shook his head in confusing. "What are you talking about?"<Go>
rp_erika17: "People are trying to rest in here." <go>
poke_master9243: "Glace and Mai need help... They're cold as ice."<Go>
rp_erika17: "Bring them in." <go>
poke_master9243: He nodded, helping them through the window. <go>
rp_erika17 (8/13/2008 11:06:34 PM): She placed Mai in a bed, then helped Glace. She looked at both of them, "Whatever happened. Maitre seems to be mauled and Glace looks to be crushed." <go>
poke_master9243 (8/13/2008 11:06:50 PM): "A test..." <Go>
rp_erika17 (8/13/2008 11:07:27 PM): "No test ends like this." <go>
poke_master9243 (8/13/2008 11:07:39 PM): "Mine did..." <Go>
rp_erika17 (8/13/2008 11:08:59 PM): She sighed, "It'll be best if you leave." <go>
poke_master9243 (8/13/2008 11:10:00 PM): "Leave the room?"<GO>
rp_erika17 (8/13/2008 11:11:02 PM): "Yes." She got a few more blankets, wrapping Mai and Glace up. <go>
poke_master9243 (8/13/2008 11:11:35 PM): "Please... take good care of them..." <go>
rp_erika17 (8/13/2008 11:13:01 PM): "Don't worry." She said. Mai looked at Zefus, smiling some. <go>
poke_master9243 (8/13/2008 11:13:21 PM): He smiled back. "I love you, Mai..." <go>
rp_erika17 (8/13/2008 11:15:03 PM): "Hey... thanks for the dress." <go>
poke_master9243 (8/13/2008 11:15:24 PM): "Oh." He blushed. "You saw it?"<go>
rp_erika17 (8/13/2008 11:16:01 PM): "Donner gave it to me. He's a little nosy and Sophie saw him with your bags." <go>
poke_master9243 (8/13/2008 11:16:26 PM): "So she knew it was from me." He grinned a little. <go>
rp_erika17 (8/13/2008 11:17:05 PM): "I guess... Donner would be a little scary in a dress." <go>
poke_master9243 (8/13/2008 11:18:46 PM): He laughed. "I should think so. Now rest... You need it."<go>
rp_erika17 (8/13/2008 11:19:32 PM): "He's right." The nurse came by, shoving a thermometer in Mai's mouth. She smiled some, waving to Zefus. <go>
poke_master9243 (8/13/2008 11:20:39 PM): He waved back and flew down to the school yard, somewhat happy now. <go>
rp_erika17 (8/13/2008 11:23:41 PM): Fumare's girlfriend was once again practicing outside. <go>
poke_master9243 (8/13/2008 11:24:05 PM): He hesitantly walked over to her. "Uhm... hi.."<go>
rp_erika17 (8/13/2008 11:25:05 PM): She looked at him, turning her nose up. <go>
poke_master9243 (8/13/2008 11:26:45 PM): "I know you don't like me, and you've got every right not to... But I want to apologize... I wasn't exactly myself earlier... I didn't mean to hurt either of you..."<go>
rp_erika17 (8/13/2008 11:27:34 PM): "Fumare won't even talk to me now." <go>
poke_master9243 (8/13/2008 11:28:48 PM): His eyes widened lightly. "Why not?" <go>
rp_erika17 (8/13/2008 11:31:43 PM): "You! He's so mad that you've beaten him twice. He's not even doing his homework. 'What's the point?' He says. I beg him to do it, for his sake..." <go>
poke_master9243 (8/13/2008 11:32:30 PM): "Would you like me to talk to him? Maybe I can go easy on him next time..."<go>
rp_erika17 (8/13/2008 11:33:51 PM): "Next time?... You are a monster!" <go>
poke_master9243 (8/13/2008 11:34:12 PM): "I mean if he wants to fight again... I didn't want to fight him in the first place..."<go>
rp_erika17 (8/13/2008 11:35:13 PM): "But you did." <go>
poke_master9243 (8/13/2008 11:36:01 PM): "I didn't want to... I... I couldn't control it..."<go>
rp_erika17 (8/13/2008 11:37:04 PM): "Practice harder!" <go>
poke_master9243 (8/13/2008 11:37:28 PM): He sighed. "Can I show you something?"<go>
rp_erika17 (8/13/2008 11:39:12 PM): "What?" She glared at him. <go>
poke_master9243 (8/13/2008 11:39:32 PM): Zefus called out Elementalist. "I lost control... and created that..."<go>
rp_erika17 (8/13/2008 11:40:10 PM): She stared at it, falling back and screaming. <go>
poke_master9243 (8/13/2008 11:41:12 PM): "You see... I can't believe I could do that..." <Go>
rp_erika17 (8/13/2008 11:44:26 PM): She looked horrified, crying some. <go>
poke_master9243 (8/13/2008 11:44:44 PM): "Please... don't cry... I didn't mean to scare you..."<go>
rp_erika17 (8/13/2008 11:46:48 PM): She shook, trying to stand up. <go>
poke_master9243 (8/13/2008 11:47:23 PM): He helped her up, giving his arm for support. "Do you honestly think a person with powers for only a month could do somethign like that?"<go>
rp_erika17 (8/13/2008 11:48:33 PM): "...You... you monster." <go>
poke_master9243 (8/13/2008 11:48:46 PM): "No... no... please..."<go>
rp_erika17 (8/13/2008 11:53:08 PM): "Get away from me,... and stay away from Fumare." <go>
poke_master9243 (8/13/2008 11:53:33 PM): "I... I'm not a monster..."<go>
rp_erika17 (8/13/2008 11:56:16 PM): She walked off, holding herself. <go>
poke_master9243 (8/13/2008 11:57:14 PM): "I'm not... not a monster..." He sat there, looking at the beast he'd summoned. "Why did this power have to be so terrifying...?"<GO.
rp_erika17 (8/13/2008 11:59:02 PM): She stopped, "You're just like him." <go>
poke_master9243 (8/13/2008 11:59:13 PM): "No... I'm not Fonce..."<go>
rp_erika17 (8/13/2008 11:59:48 PM): "Yes... yes you are." <go>
poke_master9243 (8/14/2008 12:00:02 AM): "I am not... I'm not like him..." <go>
rp_erika17 (8/14/2008 12:00:45 AM): "Yes... you are. It's too scary." <go>
poke_master9243 (8/14/2008 12:01:00 AM): "I'm different... I'm not like him..." <go>
rp_erika17 (8/14/2008 12:01:49 AM): "He can that beast." <go>
poke_master9243 (8/14/2008 12:02:19 AM): "I didn't plan to make it... I never wanted to hurt anyone..."<go>
rp_erika17 (8/14/2008 12:04:32 AM): "He can still make one, as you can. His is darker and more evil looking." <go>
poke_master9243 (8/14/2008 12:05:05 AM): "Because he is evil... I'm not bad... I don't want to hurt anyone..." <go>
rp_erika17 (8/14/2008 12:05:48 AM): "You hurt Fumare... and me... and Glace." <go>
poke_master9243 (8/14/2008 12:06:19 AM): "I wasn't thinking straight... I didn't know what I was doing... It was like I was being... controlled."<go>
rp_erika17 (8/14/2008 12:07:32 AM): "...I'm Greve." <go>
poke_master9243 (8/14/2008 12:08:07 AM): He smiled. "It's nice to meet you... on a better note."<go>
rp_erika17 (8/14/2008 12:08:40 AM): "I'm Fonce's cousin." <go>
poke_master9243 (8/14/2008 12:09:10 AM): He nearly choked. "C... cousin?"<Go>
rp_erika17 (8/14/2008 12:09:32 AM): "Yes. You scare me a lot." <go>
poke_master9243 (8/14/2008 12:11:03 AM): "I don't want to scare you..." He thought for a moment. "Well, maybe I can teach you something..."<Go>
rp_erika17 (8/14/2008 12:12:11 AM): "Like what?" <go>
poke_master9243 (8/14/2008 12:12:49 AM): "Well, what all do you know? Maybe there's something I can teach you..." G<O>
rp_erika17 (8/14/2008 12:13:53 AM): "No. You really do scare me." <go>
poke_master9243 (8/14/2008 12:14:14 AM): He sighed heavily. "How?"<go>
rp_erika17 (8/14/2008 12:14:48 AM): "You remind of him so much..." She walked off, sitting on a bench. <go>
poke_master9243 (8/14/2008 12:15:32 AM): "I don't want to be like him... I really don't..." He sat down on the grass not far from the bench itself, facing Greve. <go>
rp_erika17 (8/14/2008 12:17:53 AM): "He was so nice. We'd play all the time in the meadow. He'd teach me so many things..." <go>
poke_master9243 (8/14/2008 12:18:39 AM): His eyes widened. "Wait! The guy that wants to eliminate all non-casters and went evil was nice?!"<go>
rp_erika17 (8/14/2008 12:19:55 AM): "Yes!" She barked, a little insulted. <go>
poke_master9243 (8/14/2008 12:20:09 AM): "S... sorry... So, does Fumare know about the relation?"<Go>
rp_erika17 (8/14/2008 12:20:32 AM): "No. I'm afraid." <go>
poke_master9243 (8/14/2008 12:20:45 AM): "Does anyone here know, besides us?"<go>
rp_erika17 (8/14/2008 12:22:49 AM): "...Donner, and Glace, and anyone who can look at the records." <go>
poke_master9243 (8/14/2008 12:23:08 AM): "So, basically all the teachers know..."<go>
rp_erika17 (8/14/2008 12:24:48 AM): "Yeah..." <go>
poke_master9243 (8/14/2008 12:25:11 AM): "Well, who cares... Bloodline doesn't matter. You're you... not him."<go>
rp_erika17 (8/14/2008 12:25:51 AM): "I'm still scared." <go>
poke_master9243 (8/14/2008 12:26:33 AM): "Well, it's like with me... Most people saw what I did... I'm sure they're still talking about it too... but in time, it'll blow over. ,Og>
rp_erika17 (8/14/2008 12:28:33 AM): "Saw what? Mai's beating?" <go>
poke_master9243 (8/14/2008 12:29:47 AM): "Yea..." <go>
rp_erika17 (8/14/2008 12:31:42 AM): "It was pretty bad." <go>
poke_master9243 (8/14/2008 12:35:01 AM): "I know..." He looked away, ashamed. <og>
rp_erika17 (8/14/2008 12:36:02 AM): "How could you do that... to anyone? She was defenseless, trapped in the ground. It was like breaking the legs on a kitten and then kicking it around." <go>
poke_master9243 (8/14/2008 12:38:12 AM): "I don't know... I'm afraid of myself..."
rp_erika17: "Do you like her?" <go>
poke_master9243: "Who... Mai?"<go>
rp_erika17: "Yeah." <go>
poke_master9243: "Yes..." <Go>
rp_erika17: "Then why are you talking to me? Go be with her." <go>
poke_master9243: "She's in the hospital wing..." <go>
rp_erika17: "...Oh. I guess you hurt her again." <go>
poke_master9243: "No... I didn't..." I<go>
rp_erika17: She got up, "I have homework. Excuse me." <go>
poke_master9243: He sighed and stood up. "It was nice talking to you, Greve..." <go>
poke_master9243: (I found out how to make digi-eggs... I have to link... DX)
rp_erika17: She stopped, "
rp_erika17: Never talk to me again." She hurried off. <go>
poke_master9243: He stood there, stunned. "What's her problem..."<Go>
rp_erika17: (There's nothing else I can say. I have no characters.)
poke_master9243: (Uhm... alright...)
poke_master9243: Zefus stood there, stunned for a moment, but later went to the hospital wing to check on Mai and Glace. "How are they?"<Go>
rp_erika17: "Sleeping." The nurse replied. "Mai was badly poisoned. Glace... was near death." <go>
poke_master9243: He looked away. "Will they be alright?"<go>
rp_erika17: "Maybe. Neither look like they want to make it." <go>
poke_master9243: "Is there any way to quicken the recovery?" <go>
rp_erika17: "No. It could take weeks." <go>
poke_master9243: "I see... I'll go for now." <Go>
rp_erika17: "You can stay. I don't mind..." <go>
poke_master9243: "I don't want to wake them..." <go>
rp_erika17: "They're in comas. They need to wake up." <go>
poke_master9243: "Maybe... Maybe I can help?"<go>
rp_erika17: "How?" <go>
poke_master9243: "I can send a shock through them, like the shock pads that doctors use."<go>
rp_erika17: "No!" She barked. <go>
poke_master9243: "Ok!" He cowered back. <go>
rp_erika17: She huffed, reading through a book. <go>
rp_erika17: brb
poke_master9243: He sat down beside Mai. "Please..." He whispered, "wake up..."<GO.
rp_erika17: Mai shivered some, crying in her coma state. <go>
poke_master9243: He held her hand. "Mai..."<go>
rp_erika17: "Don't bother her." The nurse sighed. <go>
poke_master9243: "I'm going to see Sophie... If they happen to wake, send someone, please."<Go>
rp_erika17: "I will." <go>
poke_master9243: He nodded and headed to the girls' room. "Sophie? Are you in here?"<Go>
rp_erika17: Sophie was at a desk, mumbling something. <go>
poke_master9243: "Sophie... are you okay?"<go>
rp_erika17: "Hm... I'm fine. It's just this game." <go>
poke_master9243: "Game? What's it about?"<go>
rp_erika17: "It's a brain game. It's suppose to help our combat, but I'm so confused." <go>
poke_master9243: "Hmm.... Maybe I can help?"<Go>
rp_erika17: "Would you... Hey. It'll be like training." <go>
poke_master9243: He smiled and took a look at the paper. <go>
rp_erika17: She sat quietly. "...Any suggestions?" <go>
poke_master9243: "Hrm... It's a lot harder than I thought..."<go>
rp_erika17: "It is... It's way too advanced for us." She took back the paper and read it aloud, "You're facing an opponent. He's the same level of skill and strength as you. You have the advantage on power, but he's still winning. How?" She looked up at him, "Yeah... how?" <go>
poke_master9243: "Maybe they have you trapped or have a trap in mind?"<Go>
rp_erika17: "Maybe... but their traps won't work, if I'm their weakness." <go>
poke_master9243: "Hmm... Good point." He scratched his head, trying to think of what the answer might be. <go>
rp_erika17: "I wish I had a multiple choice." She sighed. <go>
poke_master9243: "That sure would be easier, huh?"<go>
rp_erika17: "Very... But Professor Shalt says that real combat doesn't come with multiple choice..." <go>
poke_master9243: "Shalt?" <go>
rp_erika17: "Yeah. He's a fire Master that's teaching Fumare..." <go>
poke_master9243: "A fire master, eh..." <go>
rp_erika17: "Yeah. He's really old, but really fun." She smiled some, "..except for his extra credit." <go>
poke_master9243: "Oh?"<go>
rp_erika17: She sighed, "...This is going to keep me up all night." <go>
poke_master9243: "Maybe not... Let's see... If it were me and you battling, I'd have the upper hand, right?"<Go>
rp_erika17: "If you use lightning, yes... Very." She shuddered, "We're not going to fight, are we?" <go>
poke_master9243: He shook his head. "No... Just thinking is all." <Go>
rp_erika17: She nodded, "...How could I win if I was fighting you?" <go>
poke_master9243: "Hmm... I really don't know..." <go>
rp_erika17: She smiled a bit, before jumped on Zefus and tickled him. <go>
rp_erika17: jumping / tickling*
poke_master9243: He fell the floor laughing. "Hey... what... are you... doing?" He asked in between laughs. <go>
rp_erika17: "Am I winning?" She smiled, "Is this the answer?" <go>
poke_master9243: "Of course! Pull something the opponent wouldn't see coming!"<Go>
rp_erika17: She laughed, "That must be it!" <go>
poke_master9243: "Wow... Amazing what can happen when you're playing around." <Go>
rp_erika17: "You really didn't see it, did you?" <go>
poke_master9243: "Nope! You really surprised me."<go>
rp_erika17: She sighed, "Yeah. I was pretty fast... Oh! Speed! It's speed! We're evenly matched in skill and strength, but if you're fast, that doesn't matter!" <go>
poke_master9243: "Oh yeah! I didn't even think about that!"<Go>
rp_erika17: She hurried to her desk, writing down her answer, "Thank you so much. I could have never thought about that." <go>
poke_master9243: He laughed. "All in a days work."<go>
rp_erika17: "You're the best. Mai is so lucky..." <go>
poke_master9243: He blushed. "Oh! Uhm... thanks for telling Mai that I got the dress for her..."<go>
rp_erika17: "No problem. I had to mention something or these girls would have gotten the wrong idea on Donner." <go>
poke_master9243: "Yeah... I'd imagine." He chuckled. After a look outside, he asked her,"Hey, is that the last of your homework?"<go>
rp_erika17: "For now, yeah. Why?" <go>
poke_master9243: "Well, uhm..." The blush grew. "Would you mind teaching me for a bit?"<Go>
rp_erika17: "Teaching?" She blushed, "...What, exactly?" <go>
poke_master9243: "Uhm... Water based moves..."<Go>
rp_erika17: "I specialize in rain. You'll probably want a tsumani teacher. They're better." <go>
poke_master9243: "Well, Rain's a start."<go>
rp_erika17: "It is." She giggled, "It's really easy too." <go>
poke_master9243: "So uhm... when can we get started?"<GO>
rp_erika17: "It's a little dark... Whenever you want to, I guess." <go>
poke_master9243: "Well, I can fix the dark..." <Go>
rp_erika17: "Oh? Can you?" <go>
poke_master9243: "Yeah... And it will even help the training. I can make a fire ring to keep it light... and we can practice by dousing out the flames." <Go>
rp_erika17: "That could be fun." <go>
poke_master9243: He smiled. "Let's go." Within a flash, he was already halfway outside. <go>
rp_erika17: She struggled, getting her shoes on, trying to be almost as quick as him. <go>
poke_master9243: He turned around while on the stairs, trying to see if Sophie was behind him. That was a mistake. In just a minute, he ended up tumbling backwards down the stairs and landed on the floor. "Owww...."<go>
rp_erika17: Sophie gasped, seeing the last of him go down the stairs. By the time she could get close, he was at the bottom. "Zefus!" <go>
poke_master9243: He stood up, wobbling. "I'm fine..." He rubbed his head. "Hurt though..."<go>
rp_erika17: She hurried down the stairs, "You need to go to the hospital." <go>
poke_master9243: "No, no... I'm fine... It's just a bump on the head... I'll be alright." <go>
rp_erika17: "Maybe this evened you out." <go>
poke_master9243: He laughed. "Come on... Enough talking about my body shape." With a grin on his face, he walked outside. <go>
rp_erika17: "Fine... I'm not the lumpy headed little boy that has to save the world." <go>
poke_master9243: He started laughing. "True, true..." When he found an open spot, he set a large ring of fire around them. "Think that'll do?" The ground from one side to the other was clearly visible. <Go>
rp_erika17: "It's fine... But I haven't a clue as to what to begin with." <go>
poke_master9243: "What do you mean?"<go>
rp_erika17: "What do you want to know about rain?" <go>
poke_master9243: "Anything... everything... according to Donner, you're the rain master."<go>
rp_erika17: She blushed, "He's too nice. I'm not a very good teacher." <go>
poke_master9243: "Well, maybe you're not a good teacher, but you're a great friend."<Go>
rp_erika17: [dear sweet Par... some loser asked me if I had a "volbasour" up for trade]
poke_master9243: [oh my par]
rp_erika17: She smiled, "You're too nice as well.." She looked at the fire. "Can you turn it down a little? It's burning all the water in the air." <go>
poke_master9243: "Sure..." He dimmed the flames, making them just high enough to emit a good light. <go>
rp_erika17: "Fire can be my weakness... If there's too much, there's no water to play with." <go>
poke_master9243: "Sorry... I forgot about that..." <go>
rp_erika17: She smiled, "Lower them just a little more, please." <go>
poke_master9243: "Are you sure? There might not be enought light then..."<go>
rp_erika17: "Just for a sec." <go>
poke_master9243: "Hmm... alright..." He dimmed them down to mere embers, giving off a faint light. <Og>
rp_erika17: Sophie jumped over them, running off. <go>
poke_master9243: "Sophie!"<go>
rp_erika17: She giggled, "Come and get me." <go>
poke_master9243: "Oh, that's it!" He chuckled, dashing after her. <go>
rp_erika17: She ran, tripping some, but made it to the huge fountain. <go>
poke_master9243: He kept after her, narrowing the distance between them. <go.
rp_erika17: She shot over his shoulder, making a soothing sound. <go>
poke_master9243: "Ugh..." He spun around and headed after her again. <go>
rp_erika17: She giggled behind him. <go>
poke_master9243: "Wha..." He spun back around. "You certainly are fast..."<go>
rp_erika17: "That wasn't me." <go>
poke_master9243: "What? Then... Ugh... confusing..."<go>
rp_erika17: She splashed water on him. <go>
poke_master9243: "Hey! Come on... aren't we gonna do some teaching?"<go>
rp_erika17: "I need you wet, so I can control you." <go>
poke_master9243: His eyes widened. "Control?"<go>
rp_erika17: She giggled, "Yup!... Torrent, girl, come get him." <go>
poke_master9243: "Torrent?"<go>
rp_erika17: Something wet slithered up his leg, nudging his ...man area with curiousity. <go>
poke_master9243: He looked down and saw a water dragon. "That's your dragon?"<go>
rp_erika17: "I told you she was small..." Sophie was a little embarassed. The little fish-like dragon was beautiful. She used her hand-like feeler-fins to cling to Zefus's pants. <go> (Think of something like a mini-Milotic.)
poke_master9243: "She's amazing..."<go>
rp_erika17: "Thank you!" She giggled. Torrent nudged again, harder and more curious. <go>
poke_master9243: "Uhm... Can you get her to stop that?" He asked in an uncomfortable tone. <go>
rp_erika17: "Why?... Oh... Sorry. Is your fly zipped? She will go in and investigate." <go>
poke_master9243: He moved around a little. "Uhm... No... it's just... odd..."<Go>
rp_erika17: Torrent traveled up Zefus' body, biting on a button she found. <go>
poke_master9243: He laughed a little. "So... how is she supposed to help?"<Go>
rp_erika17: Sophie grinned, "Torrent, take over!" The little dragon snapped to attention, flying up to Zefus' face, forcing herself into his mouth and nose, turning to water and slowly getting into his body. <go>
poke_master9243: "What is... aghh..." <Go>
rp_erika17: "I can't control a lot of water. And I'm really no good unless someone needs a garden watered, so I have to manage with this trick." <go>
poke_master9243: "I... can tell..."<go>
rp_erika17: "This is all I can do sadly." <go>
poke_master9243: "Nothing... sad about it..."<Go>
rp_erika17: "Hm?" She looked up. <go>
poke_master9243: "You can take over bodies... There's nothing sad about that... You'd be a feared enemy."<GOL
rp_erika17: "Yeah... Can you move at all?" <go>
poke_master9243: "Not... really..."<GO>
rp_erika17: "You need to. She won't come out." <go>
poke_master9243: He tried moving, but didn't get very far. After about 10 minutes, he was able to move his body decently. <go>
rp_erika17: "Um... When you, ... you know... pee, she'll come out." She turned bright red, looking down. <go>
poke_master9243: "Wha... You mean... You can't get her out?"<Go>
rp_erika17: "I'm sorry!" <go>
poke_master9243: "Well... will anything bad happen if I drink any water?"<GO>
rp_erika17: "I don't know... You could explode?" <go>
poke_master9243: His eyes widened. "Explode?!"<Go>
rp_erika17: "I'm sorry. I really don't know..." <go>
poke_master9243: "Please... tell me I won't actually explode..."<Go>
rp_erika17: "I don't know!" She covered her face and ran off. <go>
poke_master9243: He looked down. "One way to find out..." <Go>
rp_erika17: Sophie ran into the buidling, back to her room. <go>
poke_master9243: Zefus dashed to the cafeteria and began drinking all the fluids he could, ignoring the other students that were watching him. <go>
rp_erika17: Torrent growled from inside him, thrashing around, growing bigger. <go>
poke_master9243: His stomach began welling out. "Oh great... that just makes things worse..."<Go>
rp_erika17: Torrent curled up, growling. <go>
poke_master9243: He walked to a student. "Excuse me, do you know where one of the tsunami masters are?"<GO>
rp_erika17: "Fifth floor, I think." He said, looking at Zefus' bloated belly. <go>
poke_master9243: "Thanks." He dashed off fast, going up the flights of stairs and reached the fifth floor. "Now where is a master..."<Go>
rp_erika17: Several older men and women walked the halls. It seemed to be a "staff only" area. <go>
poke_master9243: He walked to the closest person. "I'm looking for a tsunami master... do you know where there might be one?"<Go>
rp_erika17: "Down the hall. Last room on the left." <go>
poke_master9243: "Thanks." He quickly swerved through the people and reached the room. With a quick knock on the door, he waited axiously. <go>
rp_erika17: An older woman opened the door, "Yes... How can I help you?" <go>
poke_master9243: "Uhm..." He looked down at his slowly growing belly, not sure of how to explain. <Go>
rp_erika17: "I cannot help you with a diet, young man. Kindly go away." <go>
poke_master9243: "No, no... uhm... Sophie... she... well, she kinda sent her dragon in me... and she can't get it out..."<Go>
rp_erika17: She looked at him, "Miss Sophia, the Rain Master?" <go>
poke_master9243: He nodded, holding his stomach. "I tried drinking something to make me have to use the bathroom, so that it would come out, but it's only getting bigger. <Go>
rp_erika17: She sighed lazily, "Come inside." <go>
poke_master9243: He walked in, looking at this new room. <go>
rp_erika17: It appeared to be underwater. The ceiling was a thick glass, able to allow you to see the fish that swan around. <go>
poke_master9243: "This room is amazing..."<go>
rp_erika17: "Thank you. I decorated myself... Sit." <go>
poke_master9243: He looked around and found a comfortable chair, sitting down in it. <go>
rp_erika17: She poured him a drink, mixing something in. "Here... drink this." <go>
poke_master9243: He swallowed the odd mixture. "How long will this take?"<Go>
rp_erika17: "Not sure." She handed him a bucket. <go>
poke_master9243: He took it hesitantly. 'Oh great...' <go>
rp_erika17: "In a few moments, everything in your stomach will come out." <go>
poke_master9243: "E.. everything?"<go>
rp_erika17: "Yes. Would you like to be restrained?" <go>
poke_master9243: "Uhm... No... I... I think I'll be fine..."<go>
rp_erika17: "Very well." She walked back to her desk, resuming her grading. <go>
poke_master9243: Less than a minute later, Zefus's head was in the bucket, filling it with bodily fluids. <go>
rp_erika17: Torrent fell in, thrashing around, paralyzed from the poison the teacher had Zefus drink. <go.
poke_master9243: He wiped his mouth after finishing. "Do you have anything I can drink to make me feel better?"<Go>
rp_erika17: "You can drink what's in the bucket, but remove the problem first." <go>
poke_master9243: He lowered it to the floor. "I think I'll pass for now..." <Go>
rp_erika17: "Fine. Leave." <go>
poke_master9243: He stood up and walked out of the room, saying a quick 'thank you', and headed back to Sophie's room. <go>
rp_erika17: The teacher got up and took Torrent, locking her up in a small aquarium with a few other dragons. <go>
poke_master9243: "Sophie? You here?"<Go>
rp_erika17: Sophie stopped crying, "..G-go away!" <go>
poke_master9243: "Sophie, I'm fine..."<Go>
rp_erika17: "I killed you. Mai's going to hate me forever." <go>
poke_master9243: "Sophie, I'm not a ghost..." He walked into the room and sat down beside her. "I'm fine, see..."<go>
rp_erika17: She looked, sniffling. "Torrent... she..." <go>
poke_master9243: "She what?"<Go>
rp_erika17: "She's... going to make you explode." <go>
poke_master9243: "No... she's not in me..." <Go>
rp_erika17: She gasped, "She's out..." <go>
poke_master9243: "Yeah... Some tsunami master gave me a liquid that made me puke her up." <Go>
rp_erika17: "She should come back to me. I can't do anything with out. She's my power." <go>
poke_master9243: "Do you want to go see the master?" <go>
rp_erika17: "No... If she finds out it was me, I'll get detention, or maybe even my master rank revoked!" <go>
poke_master9243: He looked down. "I uhm... kinda told her..."<go>
rp_erika17: She paled, "You... told..." <go>
poke_master9243: "I had to tell her what was wrong..." <go>
rp_erika17: She looked down. "I'm going to get expelled. I was so irresponsible." <go>
poke_master9243: "Don't worry... I won't let them expell you for something that I asked for..."<gO>
rp_erika17: Sophie wiped a few tears. "...I need to go to bed." <go>
poke_master9243: "Alright..." <go>
rp_erika17: "Good night..." <go>
poke_master9243: "Night..." He walked out of the room and to the hospital wing. <gO>
rp_erika17: Mai was sleeping peacefully. Glace was awake, staring out the window. <go>
poke_master9243: "Glace... You're awake. Finally."<go>
rp_erika17: He looked to Zefus. <go>
poke_master9243: "I... I... I'm sorry for... earlier..."<Go>
rp_erika17: "I had a horrible dream..." <go>
poke_master9243: "About what?"<Go>
rp_erika17: "Mai... I became power hungry, and she got in the way. I... I killed her... and laughed about it." <go>
poke_master9243: "I'm... so sorry..." <Go>
rp_erika17: "Did I do that to her..." He looked to Mai. <go>
poke_master9243: "No... your dragon did..."<go>
rp_erika17: "Then I did." <go>
poke_master9243: "You... you didn't kill her... she's still alive, Glace..."<go>
rp_erika17: He stared at her. "...Mai..." <go>
poke_master9243: "She was poisoned, or at least, the nurse says..." <Go>
rp_erika17: "I did that... in my dream." <go>
poke_master9243: His eyes widened. "Are... are you sure?"<go>
rp_erika17: "I've had to. Pole wouldn't have done that on his own." <go>
poke_master9243: "Your dragon?"<go>
rp_erika17: "Yes." <go>
poke_master9243: "I'm... I'm sure she'll be fine..."<go>
rp_erika17: He cried some, reaching out to her, "Mai... I'm sorry." <go>
poke_master9243: "She'll forgive you, I know she will..."<go>
rp_erika17: He sighed, turning over. <go>
poke_master9243: "Don't worry... I'm sure everything will be fine."<go>
rp_erika17: "What's wrong with me..." <go>
poke_master9243: "Nothing! Don't think there's something wrong..."<Go>
rp_erika17: "I... If I dreamed that, I'm a horrible person. My own sister." <go>
poke_master9243: "You can't control your dreams, Glace... No one can help what they do in a dream."<go>
rp_erika17: "I've used my sister to force you into training... Now look at her." <go>
poke_master9243: "She's going to be fine..."<go>
rp_erika17: "How can you be cheerful?" <go>
poke_master9243: "Because I know she'll be fine... Just trust me on this, Glace..."<go>
rp_erika17: "...Trust you..." <go>
poke_master9243: "Yes... Trust... I know she'll be fine..."<GO>
rp_erika17: "Very well... I will trust you." <go>
poke_master9243: "Thank you..." <go>
rp_erika17: "...do you trust me?" <go>
poke_master9243: He hesitated. "Yes... I do..."<Go>
rp_erika17: "...You don't fully yet, do you?" <go>
poke_master9243: "No... And you don't me, do you?"<go>
rp_erika17: "No..." He smiled some, "I suppose we need to earn the other's respect." <go>
poke_master9243: "Yes. It would seem that way." Zefus sat down beside Glace. "Are you hungry? Perhaps the cafeteria is still open." <Go>
rp_erika17: "I'm in no mood to eat." <go>
poke_master9243: He nodded. "Is there anything I can get you, then?" <Go>
rp_erika17: "I... I'm fine." <go>
poke_master9243: A smile shot on his face. "I've got an idea. I'll be right back." He left the wing and headed to Donner's room. After rummaging through his bags, he found what he was looking for and returned, sitting next to Glace once more. He handed him a lengthy looking book. "I picked it up the other night when I went shopping. I figured if I were staying a while, I might as well have something to keep me occupied, but since you're stuck in here... it might be worth it to you."<go>
rp_erika17: "I'm not much of a reader." <go>
poke_master9243: "Oh... Hmm..." He sat, deep in thought for a bit. "Do you draw? Or paint, perhaps?"<go>
rp_erika17: He gave Zefus a glare. <go>
poke_master9243: "What? Did I say something wrong?"<go>
rp_erika17: "You nearly kill me and you want me doing arts and crafts?" <go>
poke_master9243: "I just don't want you to have to sit here with nothing to do... The nurse said it could be weeks before your fully recovered." <Go>
rp_erika17: "I don't need entertainment. I'll be out by tomorrow." <go>
poke_master9243: He sighed. "Fine..."<go>
rp_erika17: "I can't have the entire school knowing that you nearly killed me. ...you'd end up dead yourself." <go>
poke_master9243: "You don't really expect this to stay secret do you? Everyone will have noticed I'm sure..."<go>
rp_erika17: "It needs to." <go>
poke_master9243: "I know it needs to, but I doubt it will... It seems to me that word travels fast around this school." <GO>
