Michael almost feels like he's walking on clouds. He actually won an actual fight! Even though he didn't know it, that wererat had actually helped Michael with that headbutt! Things were going pretty good right now, all things considered...
Walking through the halls, Michael realized word of the fight had spread like wildfire, and people were looking at him an wondering why he was smiling so broadly, what with a large bruise forming on his jaw and a split lip. He didn't care. In fact, let them wonder! They'd talk about it and it was only a matter of time before before the others bullies heard about his new found confidence and try to crush it.
That's when he remembered that the words weren't working. He smiled, then went to find Mrs. Sunwake and ask if he could use the Gym when it was empty.
That was where he would make his next move.
Follows everyone into the monestary...

She raised an eyebrow at the unusual request.
"Alright, on two conditions. First, you go to the infirmary and get those wounds tended two. And second, you go talk to your counselor and get yourself transferred into the advanced PE class. If you're going to get into fights, you need to train. If you don't know what you're doing it's more likely that someone is going to get hurt. You might be better off with a private practice room rather than the gym though. We have a couple set up right now."
She sighed. "And it would seem that I need to go and talk to the Headmaster about the wards failing again."
In case anyone is wondering he has an ability that boast his save once per round. If a second save is needed its +12 not +27.

"Thank you, Mrs. Sunwake. I will." Michael agrees perhaps a bit to quickly, and Aananda gets the strangest feeling there is something different about Michael. He starts to leave for the infirmary, but stops at the door and looks back at Aananada. "I'd like a big room, if that is possible."
He walks out the door, almost running as he goes about follow Mrs. Sunwake's conditions. What were they, compared to what he had just gained? He got his injuries patched up, switched into a class he'd never would have evne considered before, and then sent messages to the three bullies who hadn't been as bad as the others. He dared to meet him in one of the private training rooms.
It was time to show that he was different, but not because he had no abilities.
Sadie, the captain of the fencing team, walked into the practice room, followed by Zren and Rikken the half-ogre brothers not really known for their good people skills.
"What's going on Dacamara?" Sadie said, sounding bored. "Don't you have enough trouble in your life already without asking for more?"
"You know, Sadie, you and your goons there have been the nicest of the people here who have decided I'm a punching bag. That, combined with the bit of gentlemanly manners that says a lady goes first, means you get to be the first I take down. Most people might consider you second, but that wererat doesn't count since he knocked himself out."
"So how does it feel?" He asks. "How does it feel to know you're at the bottom of my list?"
"That's just it though, I'm not a normal. I am a telepath." He says as a piece of the wall extends outward and slams the door closed. "But I'm different."
His eyes glow as parts of the floor rise up and revolve around him.
"It's time for someone to do something about the bullies in this school, time for the jerks to get what's coming to them. The clock starts.. now!." He yells, and with a gesture sends a rock flying at each of the half-ogres.
"Then don't say I never did anything nice for you..." Michael mutters as he sends more rock flying at the trio, slowly at first and one at a time, but he speeds up every second...

"Ow!" she yelped as she got hit with a dart that flew out of the wall. She looked around. It seemed like the rest of the group had dodged out of the way.
"This was poisoned. I'm okay, it's not dragonbane so it's no big, but be careful. Obviously they set a few traps to protect the item."

Reflex:
Sadie gritted her teeth and started gathering in energy.
Michael actually stops his assault when he sees this, bring the rocks back and making them swarm protectively around him. His smile is far from comforting as he raises the floor to keep the door closed.
"Do it, Sadie. I dare you."
Vakkler comes across the unconscious wererat, led by a concerned student. His eyes narrow. He puts away the crossbow and picks up by the wererat by the whiskers.
He drags the lycanthrope to the infirmary and drops him in the doorway. "This thing picked a fight," he growls. "I suggest you make use of that medicine you're learned so much about. I'm going to find the other.
"When this one wakes up, tell him he has slurk duty. Fighting in the hallway isn't tolerated."
Fort save:
"You think this is just about getting called names?!" A rock slams against Sadie's shield and cracks from the impact before it slides off. "This is about everyone who's bullied me, everyone who has every treated my like trash because I was 'a normal' in this school!" With every word, another rock strikes Sadie's shield and slides off. They're starting to pile up and make a different shield.
"You're not going to die, Sadie, not because of me. You don't deserve that. But when you run out of power and those rocks fall, you will get hurt. Know that that pain can't even compare to what I've felt for the past two years." He says before the last rock falls into place. He calmly puts most of the room back together before he steps through the walls and goes back to his room.
He flopped down on his bed and felt the adrenaline rush taper off, leaving him tired. He didn't give in though, he had a lot to do.
And now he had a shield.
Michael has only been on his bed for about a minute when he hears a knock at the door.
"Dacamara!" Mr. Relkav snaps. "A little worm told me you've been fighting!"
"Hmmm...that's odd..."
Spellcraft:
Casts neutralize poison...
"Wow those needles suck! You wouldn't happen to have a resto bullet, would you Ephebe?"
"Wow those needles suck! You wouldn't happen to have a resto bullet, would you Ephebe?"
"Hmmm? Oh, did you get hit! I'm sorry I didn't notice. Yeah, I have one right here," she said digging a bullet out of one of her belt pouches and loading it into the Caster. She quickly took aim and shot at Krays at point blank range.
"Better?"
Michael has only been on his bed for about a minute when he hears a knock at the door.
"Dacamara!" Mr. Relkav snaps. "A little worm told me you've been fighting!"
"And?" Michael says as he opens the door and leans wearily in it's frame. "It's not like I started it."

"Dacamara!" Mr. Relkav snaps. "A little worm told me you've been fighting!"
"He's told me otherwise."
He's bluffing.
"Either way, you knocked him unconscious. That isn't tolerated. So slurk duty. Tomorrow night. Your friend will be there, along with a few other miscreants. Give you two a real chance to bond."
The small professor turns and leaves.
"It's hard to believe he said anything.. since his own headbutt knocked him out." Michael calls after Professor Relkav. "But you knew that, didn't you, Professor?"
"So what's your name?" Michael asks the girl who has come to his defense.
"Wait, Professor! Wait!" The pretty tiefling girl who screamed before runs up, slightly out of breath. "Please, I've been trying to find you. Please don't punish Michael. He didn't start the fight. All he did was defend himself. And the other boy knocked himself out when he tried to headbutt Michael. It's not right to punish him for defending himself. Please."
Vakkler frowns. "He should have called a teacher. But being much more generous than a teacher should be, I'll let him get away with lines. Same time, my office."
"Thank you Professor," she said, smiling and bowing respectfully."Wait, Professor! Wait!" The pretty tiefling girl who screamed before runs up, slightly out of breath. "Please, I've been trying to find you. Please don't punish Michael. He didn't start the fight. All he did was defend himself. And the other boy knocked himself out when he tried to headbutt Michael.

Vakkler nods. "Hmph. Well, good day, students. Get to class on time."
He leaves.
"Wow those needles suck! You wouldn't happen to have a resto bullet, would you Ephebe?"
"Hmmm? Oh, did you get hit! I'm sorry I didn't notice. Yeah, I have one right here," she said digging a bullet out of one of her belt pouches and loading it into the Caster. She quickly took aim and shot at Krays at point blank range.
"Better?"
"Ahhh thank you, much better. Stiffened me up a bit..."
"So what's your name?" Michael asks the girl who has come to his defense."Ummm...it's Kitty. Kitty Tanaka. We're in the same history class. Well, and since you've transferred classes, the same PE class too."
"I've only introduced myself to you five times already this year."
"Oh, sorry!" Michael says as his face grows red from embarrassment. "A lot has happened today and I guess I forgot." He sighs. "That is a pretty lame excuse too, sorry. Thanks for your help with Relkav."
"Hey, how did you know I switched classes?"
"Does anyone else think that this hallways seems smaller than it did a minute ago?"
