"Maybe it is impatient, but my birth parents are still alive, despite what has happened, and I'm going to rescue them. I don't know if they're in danger or how much time they have. Sorry if you aren't ready, but stuff happens when you aren't ready. I don't want to waste more time." Vai's features are determined and resolute, though a slight quiver in her voice belies the fact that she's more fearful than her words might let on. Vai definitely /does/ appear to be rushing. Even know, scaly blue wings are emerging from her back, as she readies for combat. "We're going to my hometown, on the planet Belsayv. The coordinates are already programmed into the Starcaster, you just have to push this button and hold on. If you need some time, come catch up with us when you're ready. Or not. I'm going."
"I could show you if you like, though it is fairly advanced engineering. There are classes here that can help you learn. You're already a fairly accomplished spellcaster, so you ought to be able to at least grasp the magical aspect fairly quickly." Tyrrin says appreciatively as they reach the door to the stairs up into the observatory. "It's a little bit of a climb, I admit."
"It's okay, walking is easier than climbing. You think I'm a good spellcaster..? My spells are all battle stuff, mostly, cause in needed to hunt and fight those bug things. I mean, I got one spell that's good for storing stuff. I decorated my room with some of the things I found thanks to that spell. Makes something really small, and then into cloth if I want it."
Sees the door open to the headmaster's office, and the man emerging, he gives him a short, but polite bow in passing, then wraps on the door frame with his knuckles.
"Headmaster, do you have a moment?"
"I suppose so. What can I do for you, Mr. Kiln?"
"There's no need for tools, Rep. Watch." He turns to look at the spot wher the professor is moving the flowers away to make room. Once they've been moved, Michael concentrates and begins make animal-sized graves with his mind.Repp watches intently, thoughtful for a moment. "I thought the Earthbenders were all but extinct. This school is full of wonders." Repp says thoughtfully.
"Is that what it's called? Cool. I've just been using it for simple stuff, mostly."
As he ponders his next move, Ace mentally checks in with Repp ::"How is everything going with Kitty? Is the burial sight ready?"::

Could we ask do you have a item of Sams, it helps with the reading"
Vai is standing there with blade drawn, seeming ready for combat. In fact, just as Anahita was teleporting in, she was casting a spell on herself which causes her clothing to shimmer slightly. A Mage Armour spell no doubt. She hands Anahita a device - chrome in colour with a screen with many numbers and other assorted 'tech' stuff. "No problem, but we're short on time now. My Grandma says that something already attacked, but we're not sure what except for it's /not/ the other me. Phaeze has a healing and telepathic collective, if you want to join." Vai says quickly, obviously in a rush. "The devices will allow us all to transport at once."
With that quick summary of the situation, Vai stands ready, looking around. Assuming everyone appears ready, she nods and activates her Starcaster.
Phaezeriel turns to nod at Anahita, ::There is nothing to fear from the collective. No one can harm you through it; mind or body. And I am the only one who can use it for more than telepathy.:: A gentle presence appears in Anahita's mind, reminding her of an offered embrace. If she does not refuse it, her mind is linked to those of the others.
With a small smile, Phaezeriel turns to Vai and nods, activating his starcaster in the same instant that she does.

With a small smile, Phaezeriel turns to Vai and nods, activating his starcaster in the same instant that she does.
Catching the nod from Phaezeriel, Anahita returns the nod and mentally accepts the embrace, joining up in the Collective.
Speaking directly to Phaezeriel, along the Collective, Anahita mentally asks:
>> I apologize if I have not been able to speak with you earlier on the Bradley situation, but did you manage to visit and study him for psionics yet? If you have been too busy, then please consider this a gentle reminder for your time when able. <<
Her mental voice certainly doesn't have an accent when speaking telepathically and her words flows smoothly without the usual oddness of speaking she appears to typically affect.
tell you what, I won't worry about spiders when you are around to take care of them, and you don't worry about lightning when I am around to take care of that for you. Deal?
Midori giggles at that, thinking Lang was making a joke. "Okay, but how can you deal with Lightning? It's faster than the fastest shinobi!"
"It's okay, walking is easier than climbing. You think I'm a good spellcaster..? My spells are all battle stuff, mostly, cause in needed to hunt and fight those bug things. I mean, I got one spell that's good for storing stuff. I decorated my room with some of the things I found thanks to that spell. Makes something really small, and then into cloth if I want it."
"If it hadn't been for my training and studies, your spells would've easily had us befuddled during our skirmish on the mountainside. It is no small feat of bravery to stand strong when faced by so many, and defend your home as you did." Tyrrin says evenly, not wishing to embarrass the boy, but to encourage him. "And to survive for so long against so many Remorahz is no small feat either." The stairs continue up and up... and then finally they are at a door, which Tyrrin opens into a circular chamber, in which sits the massive telescope. Fortunately, the roof was closed right at that moment, so the rain wasn't flooding the room.
"Is that what it's called? Cool. I've just been using it for simple stuff, mostly."
"It is quite a gift. How did you discover your talent for it? Are your family Earthbenders as well? Do they have similar talents?" Repp asks curiously, making small talk as he watched Michael work.
::Yes, Michael is making short work of the task with his abilities. All is as good as might be expected, and Kitty is safe.:: Repp glances over at the girls as he sends the telepathic reply, just to ensure the words he was sending were true.
Belsayv - The now defunct former Hometown of the Dragon girl Vai
The group arrives without much more fanfare other than the sound of the Starcasters cycling down with a small whirring noise. The group is standing in a small cluster in the late afternoon sun of another world - where it is sunny, warm, and clear with barely a cloud is the blue sky.
The weather is beautiful, but the scene in front of them is not. It is the former shell of a town. Technology level is somewhere pre-industrial, with most of the buildings built of wood or stone. The town is in ruins. Some buildings, as well as some patches of the ground, are still smoldering. Oddly though... there are /no/ bodies. Signs of a struggle and combat are everywhere, with non-humanoid tracks which run around the former village.
There is no sign of any of the residents, though thin colums of smoke still rise here and there. It is deadly silent.
Vai seems to be slightly stunned. This is, after all, where she grew up.
"Humph. What a mess."
tell you what, I won't worry about spiders when you are around to take care of them, and you don't worry about lightning when I am around to take care of that for you. Deal?Midori giggles at that, thinking Lang was making a joke. "Okay, but how can you deal with Lightning? It's faster than the fastest shinobi!"
Lang just shrugs his shoulders. i don't know, it sounded better in my head before i said it. Guess i didnt think of that.
There is that awkward silence for a moment then lang changes the subject.
Going over to Simba hey there boy, you remember Midori, she will going back home with us to visit, so you be nice, ok?
Simba shakes his huge head too acknowledge lang's request.
unless the rain continues, then we may have to use the teleport room

Yrrin's sword is unsheathed in a blink... firstly he checks the immediate area for any hostilities...
Then his ring hums slightly as he scans the area for lingering magical auras.
Detect magic & all alignment
Vare's rueful smile quickly fades, his expression turning serious. "I'm sorry for intruding, but it is something of an emergency. A student has been enchanted to amplify his emotions. He has already attacked one person in a tavern in Kuros, and he has left the school as far as I can tell. He seems to be able to make Gates at will, and I... honestly, if he has such a power, I fear for the school, and possibly even the planet itself. I felt it would be irresponsible to attempt to handle this situation alone." Vare says succintly, following up quickly, clearly concerned. "His name is Tryko'Sam."
She frowned. "I know that student. He's one of two students responsible for maintenance of the SIM rooms...." She hit a series of buttons on her headband. "Suspend all security clearances for Tryko'Sam that allow him into restricted areas or allow him to alter the programming of SIM rooms. Inform me immediately if this student is found anywhere on school grounds and immobilize if found until he can be retrieved by a staff member," she said briskly.
"Alright, that won't do much, but it will at least keep him from being used to sabotage the school and will alert me to his presence if he shows up in the school anywhere. I'll ask Mother to see if she can find him by scrying. Once we find him we need to keep him in one place long enough for Miss Jones to examine him and remove whatever compulsions he's been put under."
"You could tell me more about yourself more recently. What you like. Favorite foods. Stuff like that."
"But you two are already going out. I don't know if this could work or not between us... I mean, I know I want and could do this, but I don't know if it's what Dave wants..."
"Whose happiness do you want more?"
"What wants is most important. I guess I just have hope it can be both of us happy...."
He picks up the tray and starts out of the line, struggling slightly under the weight of the tray.
"I like to practice my magic, examine the habits of other races, work on my constructs... As for food, carrots and dragonfruit."
"What wants is most important. I guess I just have hope it can be both of us happy...."
He picks up the tray and starts out of the line, struggling slightly under the weight of the tray.
"Both of you being happy is more important than anything, and do you believe he feels the same? Probably. So you want him to be happy, he wants you to be happy, so why not give him the time to make the choice instead of worrying?"
adon does nothing. He's useless out of killing things, and he knows it.
"Ya. It's just hard not to worry. I guess I just need to stop thinking about it. You're really smart. Thanks for helping me."
He hasn't perked up much but he doesn't seem about to be catatonic anymore.
"Are you and Melody OK now? I was going to ask her something, but I don't want to go over if you'll be uncomfortable."
"What's dragon fruit?"
"Ya. It's just hard not to worry. I guess I just need to stop thinking about it. You're really smart. Thanks for helping me."
He hasn't perked up much but he doesn't seem about to be catatonic anymore.
"Are you and Melody OK now? I was going to ask her something, but I don't want to go over if you'll be uncomfortable."
"Look at it this way,. Does worrying help?"
Renkai smiles nods and grabs an apple
"Go for it"
"What's dragon fruit?"
"It's a vibrantly colored fruit with a dull interior and a mildly sweet taste."
"It doesn't really, I guess."
He pads over to Melody and Dom.
"Hi. Oh, Hon. What are you wearing?"
He furrows his brow and says it in the tone a proffesional hair dresser would have after his client comes in with a bad super clips haircut.
"It doesn't really, I guess."
He pads over to Melody and Dom.
"Hi. Oh, Hon. What are you wearing?"
He furrows his brow and says it in the tone a proffesional hair dresser would have after his client comes in with a bad super clips haircut.
Renkai has made himself scarce
marcell had wandered off a while ago. She's around the lunch line, when she note a ver depressed tybalt. She's about t head to him, but the she notices a even worse off tsadiran.
"Hay. What's wrong?"
"Damned lantern is taunting me!"
"If it hadn't been for my training and studies, your spells would've easily had us befuddled during our skirmish on the mountainside.

Fortunately, the roof was closed right at that moment, so the rain wasn't flooding the room.
"They can't fly, so it's easy to get away, especially after I make it so they can' tree." He explains, looking at the telescope with wide eyes. It was huge! "no wonder it can see stuff far away! It's gigantic!"
"I... See. Well, bye."
she turns to leave.
He looks behind himself confused for a moment before turning back to Mel and company.
Belyu immediately draws her short swords out and grips them tightly, looking around in case there was an ambush. This wan horrible... but disturbing. There should be bodies...
"It doesn't really, I guess."
He pads over to Melody and Dom.
"Hi. Oh, Hon. What are you wearing?"
He furrows his brow and says it in the tone a proffesional hair dresser would have after his client comes in with a bad super clips haircut.
Oh hey there Tybs, she looks at her appearance what? this? its my flight suit, I'm shuttle pilot now. Anyway I'm glad to see you before I have to take off again. during the attack I kinda damaged my favorite dress. got a few holes in it and some blood stains, war like stuff, anyway I was wondering if you could fix it up for me. Oh and I love that other dress you made for me, kai really liked it also. I save that for special occasions
"It is quite a gift. How did you discover your talent for it? Are your family Earthbenders as well? Do they have similar talents?" Repp asks curiously, making small talk as he watched Michael work.
"No, none of them. My little brother shoots light from his hands though, it's pretty cool when he takes the time to set prisms up. He only does that to show off though."
"Ya. I can fix it. I'm glad you like the dress. While we're on clothes. I want to put light strips on our stage outfits for the bad. I don't know much about electrical stuff, other than making lightning. Think you could help me out? I'm afraid to ask what happened yesterday..."he has on a blank tank top, short shorts, and a top hat with a hedgehog on it.

Vai seems to be slightly stunned. This is, after all, where she grew up.
Nearly immediately following the departure of the others, Anahita follows as well, appearing along side with Vai and whomever else, though her Starcaster lacks the winding down noise, clearly not used. She's not really holding it right either.
Glancing about, and then squatting down or getting onto all fours, Anahita proceeds to peer about and examine the ground, looking and smelling as she does though being very precise in her steps so' snot to disturb any possible tracks.
Through the Collective she sends:
>> We best designate a Warcaller and Diplomat for this, so there is less confusion among ourselves in the two situations. I am seeking possible tracks and if the are any viral threats, one moment. Please mind where you step or what you touch. <<
Her mental voice stands out as clear and without the accent of her spoken one.
For anyone looking on while she investigates, it would be fairly obvious that social modesty as she moves around animal like, is the least of her concerns.
More of a heavy rain than a storm now
adon speaks through the collective-
>> or we could just find who did this, stab them until they die, then move on.<<

Mel gives tybs a quick hug of thanks thanks tybs, your the best, as far as the costume stuff goes i'm sure i can figure something out.
Turning to arthur tybs is in Dom's band we have what you call a friendly rivalry but we still help each other out as well. Its all about the music after all
adon speaks through the collective-
>> or we could just find who did this, stab them until they die, then move on.<<
>> Adon! What is wrong with you! ? ! Life is sacred <<
>>more is wrong with me then you could ever imagine.<<
he doesn't seem to /have/ an alignment, by the way.
