" we were up high, on an eastern mountain."
:: yikes, sorry.::
Dave looks suprised "well that was unexpected, nice but unexpected" Dave keeps up Mage hand petting tybalt.
Raelle looks confused. "I don't understand. Why would the Phoebus brothers suddenly decide not to tell on me? There has to be an angle....I just can't figure it out right now."
" we were up high, on an eastern mountain."
Did you say the Eastern Mountains? how far from here? I think Lang may be safer than I thought.
but still could you not bring him back with you? or at least send someone to be with him
"Still scared, huh?" Lysander signs slowly. "She didn't mean to drop you."
He grins big "That must be it, since I'm immune to magic versus the mind. Clearly I've fallen for you charms, though they are not the magickal kind"
"Hmm, I think we can probably wait a few days, though the little girl is a bit worrisome. Is there a teacher we can at least talk to about that?"
"Well....maybe we can find someone who teaches in the elementary school? Then we're not so much ratting on Dave for potentially nothing as expressing our concern about what kind of influence a bunch of rowdy teenagers are on an impressionable little girl, right?"
meanwhile in the eastern mountains...
Lang has entered the spirit world, but this time he ahs more control, he has learned what to expect.
He follows the path he learned before to find the spirit called Kryshyykilii'vkk
He soon finds the the burnt forest, he knows he is close.
then again, he finds the spirit locked in the magical cage.
Kryshyykilii'vkk, It's me Avatar Lang, I have returned. I have given you time to think of what we talked about. I want to know can you forgive? we have bonded, shared our memeories. we are prepared to accept we have done wrong, but we ask you to forgive us.
Lang approaches the Spirit and sit in front of its prison he reaches his hand to touch the spirit. looking for a way to free it from its bonds.

Sun looks to Vriskra then back to Settro.
sun appears torn now, who to help, who is in more need,
Sun looks back to Settro she is afraid?
He looks back at his bird friend what would lang do? he whispers to himslef.
Sun hops up on a stool to get a better look at her.
he places his hand on her "shoulder" i'll find help, friend, no need for fear anymore
Sun hops down and goes to find the only one he can think of for help;
Master Blackscales, Lang's teacher.
Sun heads out in search for Ephebe. if anything he should apologize for what happened to the class today.
"Hmm... You can't tell me, can you? Could you draw what you want to say so I can teach you the sign for it?"

Dave looks suprised "well that was unexpected, nice but unexpected" Dave keeps up Mage hand petting tybalt.Raelle looks confused. "I don't understand. Why would the Phoebus brothers suddenly decide not to tell on me? There has to be an angle....I just can't figure it out right now."
"hmm, perhapse they have turned over a new leaf? Or maybe they are acting in deference to the local athorities? You did say you were related to the headmaster right?"
From his gaze around, he can see Anahita, just after the take down and chomp with his beak, with closed eyes, hands together with finger's interlaced, murmuring something quietly. She'd remained near the kill, but not interrupted.
Once she finishes, it does not take more than a few moments, she comes walking over with a smile, admiring the efforts. "Excellent kill. Impressive. So you cook the meat with ease. Fascinating. You really are a creature of Fire."
Considering her options at this point, Anahita kneels down near the dead deer and puts a hand on a major part of it, as if to bid it farewell, or thanks, before reaching for something at her side, then frowning when it isn't there. With a light furrow of her brow, she considers her options and then looks up at Ardiente.
Then there's a shrug, and she proceeds to tear at the deer, with her mighty nails, teeth and strength, pulling pieces of flesh out while setting them to the side, preparing a small snack for herself, apparently. Once that is all said and done, she politely asks, "Do you mind sharing your fire, Ardiente?" Needless to say, she got pretty bestial there for a moment, like an animal with intelligence might.
"If I had my blade, I would have prepared the body for being carried, but .. that can wait until after you eat." She smiles once more, clearly admiring his beak to body eating technique.
Ardiente digs his talon deeper into the carcass as Anahita goes to work, partly for balance, but also relishing the feeling of them digging into flesh. He stands tall, his wings spread, once again for balance. He tears another strip of meat and prepares it with his fire, and down his gullet it goes.
He hops off the carcass as Anahita truly begins to tear at it with her brute-like strength, setting strips along for her. ::Of course I do not mind sharing. You will have to tell me when you believe they are finished though... we have different ideas of what constitutes cooked.:: she can feel a certain pride through the telepathy, at her praise for his kill.
Once Anahita's snack is roasted to her liking, Ardiente once again resumes his meal, tearing at the kill with his beak, or plunging in to some of the softer, tastier bits: liver and such. Once finishes, he cleanses his face with a gout of fire, vaporizing any telltale signs of his somewhat uncivilized method of eating, and then returning to his human form.
He looks about, as if checking that they were truly alone, before sitting in lotus across from his hunting partner and taking a deep breath, placing both his palms face down on the ground in front of him. He doesn't say anything, but after a couple moments, he pulls a rough stone 'knife' from the ground in the spot where his palms had been. It's sharp enough to carve the carass as Anahita would like, but not really useful otherwise. He hands it to her. "Will this be sufficient?"
The continued scratching does nothing to ease him. Fire people. Auto dislike. Raelle is OK because she doesn't use fire stuff. Dave is OK because thrall stuff. These guys are all fire and meanness. Do not want.
Like me for instance?
Like me for instance?

"Thank you sun..."
As sun leaves settro strokes vriskra's neck.
"It's alright.. You'll be fine..."
After melody and belyu part ways for the time being, melody goes back to the rehersal room she was shown. she starts to work on setting up the stage for her dream band.
alot of time themed intruments, and effects.
she tries to create a set of tesla coils for a part of the show with a cge for someone to be in as the electrical arcs flash all around.
melody seems totally lost in her setup as she tries to make her vision a reality.
taking measurements on the stage, looking for every possible floor space availability.
She stands on the stage working on ideas for choreography and placement.
:: yikes, sorry.::
:: <SIGH> It's ok. Sorry I snapped. I'm gonna head back in to class.::
He turns and heads back into the school.

It's sharp enough to carve the carass as Anahita would like, but not really useful otherwise. He hands it to her. "Will this be sufficient?"
When Ardiente helps with the cooking, she's more interested in the raw, but enough cooked that it might clean whatever's going on with it. Then, with a word or two, and a gesture, she waves her hands over the meal casting some manner of ritual or spell, and eats.
All the while, she's bloodied and soiled, but doesn't seem to care. When she does eat, it's finger licking good! Once she's completed with her eating, she watches as Ardiente creates a stone knife. There's a pause in her expression and then a smile. "Well, aren't you talented."
Using that, she expertly skins and flays the remaining corpse's parts, demonstrating keen survival skills at preparing the remaining carcass for use, and perhaps even ease of transport.
This probably takes a good while, not something too quick, but she certainly doesn't appear to have a watch, or concern about the time. Once the work is all said and done, she'll provide Ardiente with his knife back and nod.
Then, stepping back, with another word or two, and a gesture, she waves her hands over herself, producing sufficient water to rinse off with, as well as soaking the ground to boot.
Once that is all done, with a smile, she closes her eyes and does something else, voice and words. There is a shimmer around her form, like a star shining object that starts at her feet and rises up, apparently cleaning and drying her as it does, plus fixing her hair, until she appears as clean and neat as when they first met earlier in the lunch hall.
She beams brightly after doing so saying, "I only recently learned I could do that-- it's amazing. Did you want me to help clean you off too, or will you be alright with Fire's efforts?"
Once done, Anahita appears ready and willing to return to the school. She doesn't exactly 'offer' to carry the prepared meats, but, then again, she's not really shown leadership skills, yet. Or demands.
tl:dr Anahita eats like a savage, cooks meat rare, uses knife to prepare food, uses magic to clean and water. Ready to return to school.

Lang approaches the Spirit and sit in front of its prison he reaches his hand to touch the spirit. looking for a way to free it from its bonds.
Kryshyykilii'vkk slumped in his cage, tears rolling down his face, but when Lang approached the cage he shook the bars and roared with fury. There were no words in his cry, but images were conveyed through it anyways. Some images from before. The destruction of his children. The betrayal of those who were supposed to keep them safe. But now there was another image. A young girl in her teens, her school uniform dirty and torn, tears streaming down her face. It looks like a younger (though not by much) Professor Reading. The emotions of hurt, rage, and betrayal are coming as strongly from her as they are from Kryshyykilii'vkk.

"He's my brother-in-law's uncle. I don't know him that well." She shook her head. "Maybe my dad said something to them," she added doubtfully.

Sun found Ephebe in the classroom. "Oh, good. I have a lot of students to track down and I'm guessing that things went completely off the rails when I got called away. Can you point me in the direction of the most urgent crisis?"
Dave has his pensive look on "With noble types that could still be seen as pretty close, but it's just a theory" he then shrugs and Mage hand scritches Tybs with his other arm around Raelle utterly content.
Hew swung the sword down atop another skeleton that moved in to strike at him. As the sword cleaved through the brittle bones another slashed across Hew arm leave a slight gash. Quickly Hew swirled the sword around stabbed it through the chest. As the blade pierced it a magical cold struck the creature sending it flying away in pieces. Only the greater shadow remained. It was immobile from the spell. "Your right Zilla this wouldn't be any fun if I just killed it while it's immobile." Hew snapped his figures and the spell released it's captive. It flailed out at Hew only to be struck as it advanced. The blade cut deep into the shadows form. A flash of life energy burst from the wound healing the wound left on on Hew's arm. The shadows form dissipated as if fell to the ground. As Hew turned to face Grim the bones of the skeletons burst into flames leaving only ash behind. Hew's face showed he was pleased with the performance and slightly surprised.
"I'm don't know where the healing came from I guess that could be the other part of the blade, but I get hit with any necromantic effects. Well ether way the powers seem to work at least decently against the undead. Right Zilla?"
Hew seemed to have forgotten about the last shadow as it slipped through the darkened areas of the room. It crept toward him. It's hand reaching out for him. "What do you mean watch out there's another." Hew turns to see the shadow plung it's hand into his chest. Realizing he had little time to react he lashed out for his sword, putting everything he has in to the attack.
As the blade strikes the creature spells flair to life causing the shadow to rear back in pain before disbursing. Hew fell to his knees. The weakened state he was in, is taking it's toll. He slowly looks to Grim. "I screwed up." He lays down on the ground catching his breath.

Lang accepts the vision.
you care for her, I believe she cares for you, you want me to help her? her anger is tied to you. I will help her if you allow me to do so. so i ask you permission to allow me to help both you and her, guide me in the healing process.
Lang pauses a moment.
Kryshyykilii'vkk, when last we met, I promised to help you but what was not realized, you have helped me. for that, I thank you. please allow me to share that with you. Lang stands and approaches the cage. reaching out to share his visions with the spirit.
Lang shares his relationship with Ignace, the inferno, the pain she has felt and how Kryshyykilii'vkk's shared pain has taught Lang the pain she was feeling.
I wanted to share that with you. it was your teaching that helped us.
lang steps back and bows. I made the promise, I will continue to help.
Grim rushes over and dismisses any remaining undead "you didn't do all that bad here let me fix that" he then casts restoration and cure light wounds
Treisdan's outline wavers momentarily
(as is something was superimposed over him then disappears) and he shakes his head, going to class...
All of my characters, minus settro and vriskra, head to class. ( roel, adon, igni.)
Sun found Ephebe in the classroom. "Oh, good. I have a lot of students to track down and I'm guessing that things went completely off the rails when I got called away. Can you point me in the direction of the most urgent crisis?"
well not really off the rails. Most of the class is in the garden playing they have been well behaved. I don't know what happened to grim and the other boy. Midori is busy worshiping Dave. Lang flew off and is currently in the spirit world again, Vriskra is lying in the infirmary and really needs help, Oh and there is a giant Hydra in the lake now, but its ok he's nice. Sorun found Sheess and they are at the lake swimming.
Sun stops to think if there is anything else.
And i think thats about it, Oh wait Ignace is in the Home Ec room she is fine, Oh and I think midori likes that new boy that had the problem this morning. and everybody had lunch.
Sun says everything like its just another normal day at the school.
Did I mention Vriskra? she needs help the most right now.
eating... Too much... Getting... A migraine.... Owowowowowwww.....
"I got too cocky is all it was. I'll be having a talking to from Zilla awhile. I feel better now. At least I don't feel like I'm going to raise a blade anyone anymore." Hew smiled an unsure smile. He doubted that anyone would understand him wanting to try an kill anyone in there.
