Ephebe walked through the corridors towards Soli's clock tower. It had been a while since she had moved through the school so slowly, but she didn't really have the energy right now for super speed.
Once she got there she knocked loudly on the door.
"Besides Asch?"
Sighs and takes his tray back, then heads to his classes
Enjoys the hell out of his advanced PE class :)
EDIT: Oh yeah, advanced PE is later...hmmm then he's probably bored in a some tactical theory class...
"All these Champions showing up you'd think they'd just make a band and get it over with." Taron mumbles as he finishes off his own disproportionate amount of food. He pushes a loaded plate through a portal to his room so Kam can eat before class.
"Well, off to tell Mom about Phebes..."
Taron leaves the cafeteria and heads for PE, dodging boulders as he gets close enough to his mother to give her Ephebe's message.
After safely stowing Saffire in her locker with some practice shuriken to chew on and some jerky in case he got hungry, Kitty headed into PE class.
"I bet you can even get through class without getting injured today," she whispered to Michael encouragingly.

Once she got there she knocked loudly on the door.
You hear a small click then feel a poke on your toe. Looking down you see the clockwork watch outside a door sized for him, holding a note for you.
What do you want?

"I bet you can even get through class without getting injured today," she whispered to Michael encouragingly.
"As long as I don't get something dislocated again, I think I'll be fine." Michael replies, grinning weakly. Still, the threat of moving to actual self-defense instead of just dodging rocks looms within his mind. "I wouldn't actually bet on it though."

She sighed.
"Soli, when someone knocks on the door, the proper etiquette is to actually answer it. I came to talk to you, not your watch."
Michael groans as they enter and it seems Dodge Rock has already started. He jumps out of the way of a boulder and runs of tot eh locker room to change.
"At least it's not hand-to-hand." He says to himself.
Kitty waves at the new classmate as she dodges rocks, waiting for Michael to come back to class.
"How long has it been since you last threw rocks at me?" Taron asks his mother as he returns Kitty's wave. "You seem a little rusty."
Apparently early to class, Michael doesn't have to dodge people to get to his locker, and is back in record time.
"Who's the new guy?" He asks Kitty.
"How long has it been since you last threw rocks at me?" Taron asks his mother as he returns Kitty's wave. "You seem a little rusty."
"Don't worry dear. This is just a nice gentle warmup to get things going. Although I am a bit tired. I was up late working on some research, and then your sister got into a bit of trouble too. Again. She was such a good child too. I don't know what happened," she said, in an exasperated tone that would have been more believable if she hadn't smiled.
Apparently early to class, Michael doesn't have to dodge people to get to his locker, and is back in record time.
"Who's the new guy?" He asks Kitty.
"Which one? Taron isn't actually new, but he might as well be since he's only ever showed up for class twice before. And I don't know about the other one." She said indicating Ryuzo. "Transfer student maybe?"
"It's okay, I'll be happy to learn whatever I can. There are two things I'm good at, music and fire," she added with a bright smile. "And I love to spend time studying both."
Gaelvin shrugs.
"Well not that I dont love playing at this school but I have a bit of plane lag. Would you happen to know an inn I can hole up in near by. I dont really need to rest but its a habit and so much more relaxing to. A local libary would be useful too so I can brush up on this world, last time I did not I got chased out of a town because they found it highly insulting to eat with your mouth closed. Something about hiding the gods blessing or something."
He shakes his head.

He shakes his head.
"I've got a better idea. We can ask the Headmaster to let you stay here as a guest. There's plenty of rooms and the best library around is in the school anyways. And he can fill you in on the local taboos. Not that I can think of any that extreme here," she said with a sunny smile. "Come on, I'll show you to the office."
She sighed."Soli, when someone knocks on the door, the proper etiquette is to actually answer it. I came to talk to you, not your watch."
The clockwork watch gives Ephebe an annoyed look. He hands her another small note.
He is in the gate, out of reach. He left a message to bring the dead one. The tower will not open without him. Have a nice day.
Feeling their is nothing more for it to do the clockwork watch walks back into his tiny door.

He finally stops playing, swinging his guitar over his shoulder. Taking a breath he speaks in his own voice.
"Well it cant be worse then that demon lord's guest room. Honestly who calls the screams of countless mortals music and relaxing. Dont get me started on the food, nearly starved the whole time there. Anyways thats enough gripping, shall we?"
Vakkler runs by, still chasing after the rhinoceroses/rhinoceri. "Whoever gave the summoners," he shrieks, "that disappearing pentacle chalk is going to detention for the rest of their lives!"
Looks over at Kitty and Micheal...'Why do they keep looking at me? Ahh becasue I am new here, I imagine...' he will walk over to Kitty and Michael, and bows.
"I am Ryuzo, I'm new here", he says, then smiles awkwardly. "Umm. Yeah, I suppose that sounded creepy..."
He bows again. "My apologies..." He looks embarrased.

"Aargh! I don't even know what that means!"
She kicks the door and then stalks away from the tower.
::Taron, it's time to talk to Grandma. At least he listens to her. He's locked himself inside an extradimensional space and only communicates through indecipherable messages delivered by his pocketwatch.::

She laughed. "No, it's definitely not as bad as that. Even on the bad days. It's right this way."
She led the way to the Headmaster's office and knocked lightly on the door.
Ps. DB3 like the drawing.

Jiminy shows up with the mildly wounded freshman slung over his shoulder.
"Wasn't me this time. I trapped the rhinoceruseses in one of the classrooms...should hold long enough for the spell to wear off. As long as nobody used persistent spell this time...which they very well might have. Anyways, I'm taking this guy to the infirmary. Good luck, Professor. I have a feeling you're going to need it."
Looks over at Kitty and Micheal...'Why do they keep looking at me? Ahh becasue I am new here, I imagine...' he will walk over to Kitty and Michael, and bows.
"I am Ryuzo, I'm new here", he says, then smiles awkwardly. "Umm. Yeah, I suppose that sounded creepy..."
He bows again. "My apologies..." He looks embarrased.
"It's nice to meet you, Ryuzo," she said, bowing back in between dodging boulders. "My name is Kitty. Don't worry I don't expect you to remember. Most people don't. And this is Michael. We're very pleased to meet you, and I don't think that you sounded creepy at all." ^.^
Asch sits next to the bed as Amada sleeps here condition being stable they allowed him to move her. A vial of the serum sitting unin his hand as he contemplates both everything Umbral had told him about his emotions and what Ryo had told him about talking to him about his father.
He takes in a slow breath and exhales even slower as he the serum. It might not fix the problem but at least it can contain it for now he tells himself.
Having delivered her message, Ephebe stalked off to the practice room she was supposed to meet Lysander in later and curled up in the corner to take a nap. She really had left the infirmary too soon.
The stones seem to come right at Ryuzo...then either he is suddenly not where he was, or the rock passes right through him.
"Ahh! [blink] That's good, then. [blink] How long have you guys [blink] been in this [blink] class?" It doesn't seem to take any effort, or he doesn't realize he's doing it.
Kitty flipped and ducked and rolled to avoid the rocks, making sure to pull Michael out of the way too if it looked like he was going to get hit. She didn't seem the slightest bit out of breath.
"Well I've been in this class since the beginning of the term, but Michael is only on his second day. He transferred out of regular PE so he could learn self-defense."
"The blinking thing is interesting. I'm not sure I've seen that power before...although sometimes my grandmother seems to do something like that. I've never actually caught her in mid-move though, so it's hard to say."
Vakkler runs by, still chasing after the rhinoceroses/rhinoceri. "Whoever gave the summoners," he shrieks, "that disappearing pentacle chalk is going to detention for the rest of their lives!"Jiminy shows up with the mildly wounded freshman slung over his shoulder.

The kobold looks at Jiminy sharply. "What's that supposed to mean?" he snaps. He looks a little nervous.
"Huh? [blink] Oh! [blink] it's a talent of mine [blink]. Master said [blink] I had a knack for [blink] it. It's basicly a quick [blink] controlled tele [blink] port."
Fei stays on the side of the gymnasium closest to the doors, splitting his attention between dodging and making sure his cuffs do not change color in the middle of class... (o.O)
"Oh, well don't worry then. You haven't lost your tocuh at all since my last visit. You want me to bring Kam in during his free period? He didn't get a chance to actually do anything last time he was here."
::Taron, it's time to talk to Grandma. At least he listens to her. He's locked himself inside an extradimensional space and only communicates through indecipherable messages delivered by his pocketwatch.::
::What was the message?::
Taron actually allows himself to get hit by a boulder or, to be more precise, he rides it to the door.
"Sorry, Mom, I told Sis I'd help her if she wanted me too, and she's calling. Bye!" He slips out of the door and closes it in time to stop a rock from getting into the hallway.
"That's a bit... unfair... don't you think?" Michael laughs/huffs. Ryuzo seemed okay, and he wasn't going to hold his blinking against him. "Wish I could do that though."
"You could..." Whispers a small voice in the back of his mind. He shakes it away and drops to the ground to avoid a boulder he saw almost too late.
"Oh, well don't worry then. You haven't lost your tocuh at all since my last visit. You want me to bring Kam in during his free period? He didn't get a chance to actually do anything last time he was here."

::Something about how the tower would stay locked until we brought the dead one to talk to him. What does that even mean???::
