*Eureka Academy:Second Semester*

Alyss Mithrandir​

Rose was trying to reassure her, and for a while it was working. “Hey, hey now. Just relax. It was only a thought I had.” She was right… it was only a theory. After all, there was no evidence that students were forced to fight monsters. All in all, Alyss was just blowing things out of proportion. She had to calm down… she was now taking slow deep breaths in order to attempt that. “Like I was trying to say before, I doubt that they’re going to force us to fight anyone or anything. Arena battles should be planned by whoever wants to battle willingly.”

Yes… that was the way it should have been. They would never deliberately put a student in harm’s way. Alyss had smiled as she started to gain back her clarity. It was then that Rose pinched Alyss’ ear. Almost immediately, Alyss’ ball of lightning just went out as she let out a loud shriek, and she dropped her hand to her side. Alyss was terrified of contact ever since she read a book as a kid that was on the subject of germs and diseases that people could pass to each other. It scared her badly… very badly. Ever sense that day she had a fear of being touched. People would get sick from something as simple as touching the doorknob of someone that just opened it who happened to be sick. Imagine would a simple handshake would do!

She dropped to her knees and clutched her head. It wouldn’t have been near as bad if she wasn’t in the dark as well. Now here she was… in the dark after being touched. Her heart was pounding inside of her chest; her eyes were as wide as plates. Alyss could do nothing but look down at the ground. She wanted to go home, but she knew that wasn’t an option. Alyss kept trying to talk but nothing came out but winded gasps, almost as if she had been punched in the stomach.

“I-I-I,” Alyss tried to speak, but it was of no use. She was cringing and shivering like someone had just dumped dirty cold water on her. “P-ple-,” she kept trying. She tried to look up at Rose, but her eyes weren’t adjusting to the darkness around her. Was Rose even still there? She must have run off laughing… Alyss was alone (or so she thought), by herself, in the dark, and still feeling Rose’s touch even though her hand was long gone.

At this point tears welled up in her eyes. She would never find her way out of here now. Alyss was sure to get in trouble… and everyone would pick on her when they found out that she was afraid of the dark and afraid of something as silly as being touched. Alyss stopped clutching her head as she hugged herself, still looking around but unable to see two inches in front of her face. She tried to call out for help again, if Rose was still there.

“Ro-Rose? He-hello? Pl-please… please help.”

The most least expected thing had happened once what was said was said. Just as Alyss looked like she was calming down, almost instantly when her ear was touched she let out an ear piercing scream. Rose's hand jumped away as she stared wide eyed at Alyss before the lightning ball completely went dead. It was all darkness now. "Alyss? What's wrong?" She voiced out. She couldn't see Alyss, but she could definitely hear her. Her breathes came out in gasps, as if she was hyperventilating, and the sound came from beneath her, as if she was on the ground.

“I-I-I,” The elf voiced out, unseen. It sounded like she was attempting to respond, but was having a lot of difficulty. “P-ple-,” Rose wasn't sure what was going on, but she needed something to see with. With the room they went through before being barely lighter than the entire arena itself, she had tried to feel her way back to the small room. Eventually, she felt a gap in the wall and passed through the open door. Now scanning the walls, she scanned the walls as if she was looking for a light to turn on, or possibly a night light that came on when it was unplugged. She felt around the wall with her hand until she felt a cold button underneath her skin. Pushing it, the entire room was lit up.

It wasn't nearly enough to light up the entire arena, but it was bright enough so that some of the light revealed where Alyss was sitting - or crouching, rather. She looked awfully frightened, and Rose began to wonder if it was just the ear pinch that triggered her freight. Quickly walking back over to her, she noticed that Alyss was sobbing a little bit. “Ro-Rose? He-hello? Pl-please… please help.”

"Alyss," Rose said as she bent down to check on the elf's condition. She used her hand to push some of her own hair back behind her head so that Alyss could see her face clearly. "I'm right here. What just happened?"
 
Alyss Mithrandir​

Light hit Alyss and she was immediately already feeling better. Of course, she was still rather shaken, but she was slowly starting to feel better. Rose was right back next to her, pushing her own hair out of her face so that Alyss could see her. “Alyss,” she said. “I’m right here. What just happened?” This put Alyss in an awkward position. She was going to have to explain what happened, and Rose was probably going to laugh at her.

Alyss tried to look up, but was far too afraid to look Rose in the eyes. Her face was once again beet red as she spoke. “S-sorry… I am afraid of b-being touched and th-the dark. I-I am so sorry, I di-did not mean to fri-frighten you.” Alyss was ashamed of herself. She had hardly known the girl for longer than twenty minutes and here she was making her worry, and being an idiot around her. Sure was sure Rose was going to walk away and make fun of her.

“I-if you do not want to continue the tou-tour… I will unders-“ Alyss paused as she noticed Rose’s ears… Suddenly, what just happened didn’t seem to bother her much at all. “Your ears! You are… half… Fey? Am I correct?” Alyss was amazed, she had never met anyone of Fey decent in her life. And here was Rose, half-Fey with slightly pointed ears… right in front of her all along. “That is amazing,” Alyss said, a look of awe on her face. “O-oh… forgive me, I am being rude. I just… it caught me off guard, is all.”

​

“S-sorry… I am afraid of b-being touched and th-the dark. I-I am so sorry, I di-did not mean to fri-frighten you.” Well, that explained her behavior. But if she was that afraid, there had to be a reason - a really good one at that. But it probably wasn't the best time to talk about it.

 “I-if you do not want to continue the tou-tour… I will unders-“ Suddenly, the elf cut herself off mid sentence, and Rose noticed that her gaze was shifted to something on the side of her face. “Your ears! You are… half… Fey? Am I correct?” Rose blinked for a minute, puzzled that her mood had suddenly shifted from regretful to awestruck. “That is amazing......o-oh… forgive me, I am being rude. I just… it caught me off guard, is all.”

Rose chuckled a little bit at that. She brought a hand up to play with one of her lobes, the finger rubbing against the plug's smooth texture. "Yes, I am a half breed of Fey. I thought I was going to be the only one at this school that wasn't completely human until I met you. Surprised?"

Standing up, she brushed her knees off as she looked back at the lit room, and then back at Alyss beneath her. She seemed alright now compared to the mood she was in before, but Rose wondered if she was in good condition. Slowly she offered a hand, of course without letting a finger get in contact with hers. "Do you need a hand? I actually think that was more than enough of a tour for tonight. We can always continue another time."

(OOC: Don’t worry, Blu-Raye. We all understand. :grin:)​

Alyss was very much surprised. She had thought the same thing that Rose had until just now. It appeared that both she and Alyss had a little more in common than they thought. Rose had stood up and brushed her knees off. “Do you need a hand? I actually think that was more than enough of a tour for tonight. We can always continue another time.” Alyss simply nodded her head in confirmation and allowed Rose to help her up. She lifted her sleeve of course, now knowing that Alyss didn’t like to be touched.

Now back on her feet, Alyss smiled nervously. “I really, really, am sorry about that.” It appeared that they would be heading back to their own dorms now. “I only have classes on Wednesday and Friday… if you would like to continue the tour.” She really hoped that Rose wanted to continue. Things were finally getting very interesting.

{ OOC: Yeah, running on two hours of sleep wasn't what I intended. Once today is done, my poasts will be awesome again . :yay: }

Alyss nodded and held up her sleeve so that Rose could clutch on it, knowing now that any contact with skin was a no-go for her. Pulling her up to her feet, she noticed a nervous smile on the elf's face.

“I really, really, am sorry about that. I only have classes on Wednesday and Friday… if you would like to continue the tour.”

Rose actually hadn't thought about her schedule until Alyss brought hers up. From the sound of things, it sounded like they could get together again at some point of this week.

"And I only have classes on Tuesday and Thursday afternoon...oh, and Friday afternoon too apparently. Most of them are combat classes. I do wonder what my instructor will be like." She replied as she thought out loud. "So it sounds like we only have Monday and early Thursday to hang out - not counting the weekend of course."

Rose hadn't let go of Alyss' sleeve. In fact, it was actually intentional so that the elf would still have time to calm herself. "If you can't use that lightning ball again, I would suggest I lead to way to our dorms. Which sect are you in, by the way?"
​
 
Alyss Mithrandir​
(OOC: Just two hours? Dear, Blu-Raye… you’re slowly figuring out how I feel the majority of the time. :gasp:)​

It seemed as if meeting up with Rose again may be a little difficult. They had two completely different schedules. While hers were mostly combat classes, the only class that Alyss had was a magic class, so even their subjects were completely different. Alyss picked magic so that she could one day become something more than a Spellsword. What she really wanted to do was become an Elementalist of some sort.

But at least they both had Monday, Thursday, and the weekends to see each other. So, not all hope was lost on that front. Alyss had tried to use her lightning ball again only to find that it kept sparking. She simply couldn’t concentrate long enough to keep it up. “If you can’t use that lightning ball again, I would suggest I lead the way to our dorms. Which sect are you in, by the way?” Rose must have noticed that Alyss couldn’t activate her lightning anymore.

“I am red sect. What about you?” Alyss asked. She hoped that Rose wouldn’t release her sleeve anytime soon. She would be fine if she was being led around in the dark. It would still be somewhat scary, but she would be fine just as long as Rose never released her sleeve.

{ OOC: Yeah, it doesn't feel good . :sad3: }

After Rose had asked her question, she had began walking towards the direction they came that would lead them back to the courtyard. Exiting the room they had to go through, she noticed that it was pretty dark out now. It had to have been around midnight, at least an hour before; some dorm lights could be seen shining through the window curtains of students that were more than likely about to sleep.

"I am red sect. What about you?" Alyss asked as they strolled onward towards the sect building.

"Red sect it is, then." Rose replied, keeping her clutch firm on the elf's sleeve. "Oh, and I'm in the black sect. I didn't know which one you were in because you weren't wearing a blazer." She laughed a little bit at that. Then again, Alyss' kimono was a pretty tint of red. It could have hinted which sect she was in, but Rose wanted to be sure. Looking around, she realized that apparently there weren't any portals open during this time at night. She had read that there would be some around the school to use as shortcuts for certain places, and it would have been nice to use one to get transported directly to their dorms.

Not only that, but there wasn't an elevator in sight either. Rose thought that this school could probably use one, especially for any students that may get injured for some reason. Then she supposed that was what the portals were for...at daytime of course. For now, the two girls had no choice but to go up 2 to 3 floors worth of stairs. That was surely going to wipe her out in time for bed. "Whoever you're sharing a dorm with, they're probably going to wonder why you came in so late. But they probably won't care, unless they're like, really interested in you."

(OOC: Don’t worry. You won’t have to deal with it for too much longer. :grin:)​
​
So she was black sect… There was no doubt that she was strong. In fact, she could probably take Alyss out in just a few seconds if she ever wanted to. However, Rose seemed friendly, and she doubted that she would ever want to. It must have been nice to be that strong. Alyss had almost made black sect, but it was her anxiety that held her back, along with the lack of any other elemental abilities besides lightning. That’s why her only class consisted of learning more magical abilities.

Rose was still clutching on to Alyss sleeve as she led her through the darkness. Because of this, Alyss wasn’t nearly as afraid as she would have been. This, in all reality, made Alyss very happy. “I hope they will not be angry with me.” Alyss replied. “I would rather not have a roommate that found me to be a nuisance. I have heard stories of people with awful roommates before…”

There was one in particular with a roommate that kept stealing all of the other girl’s things and using them. They would also invite friends over in the dead of night, and snore really loud, and perform experiments and smell up the whole apartment. Of course, in almost every adaptation of Sherlock Holmes, he turned out to be a completely horrid roommate, and would often disturb poor Watson… whom he often made out to be a dolt.

Not only did Alyss not want to get stuck with a roommate like that, she wished to not become that roommate. Since Rose was Black Sect, she would have a roommate all to herself. That must be… very nice to have. “So…” Alyss started, “you have your own dorm all to yourself, right? That must be rather nice.” The smile was back on Alyss’ face, regardless that it was dark. She was just happy to be around a friend at the moment. Suddenly, the dark wasn’t much of a bother.
 
OOC: Before I lose my last convo post for this RP, let me post now.

Either you two are moving fast, or we're (I'm) too slow. :sad3:

Anyway, short post ahead.

Nicolo Zorzi


"My brother and sister have gone here so naturally I ended up here as well. Oh, sorry Zee, if I can call you that, I mean, sorry."

Nicolo couldn't help but smile. "Actually, I didn't mind. I wanted to ask you the same question too, Signora (Lady) Pharra" Pharra was a nice young lady, and the young Italian couldn't help but be a bit glad that he was getting into a conversation with a pretty girl like her.

"Nicolo, where are you from? Your speech is a bit different but I cannot recognize it."

Nicolo was surprised when he heard that, but then again he was in another place, from another land, so people here were speaking in an accent different from he was. It did not matter, but he did respond.

"I am from Italia. Dalla città di Bracciano. (From the town of Bracciano.) It's not far from the capital city of Roma, il mio amico." (my friend.)

“I hope they will not be angry with me. I would rather not have a roommate that found me to be a nuisance. I have heard stories of people with awful roommates before…”

"Well I don't see why they'd be mad at you," Rose replied as they went up the stairs. "Since the two of you share a dorm, no one is above the other." That was definitely a rule to remember. It was a dorm, not your parents house, so no one should be telling the other what they can or can't do as long as they follow the usual principles. Besides, it was the very first night on campus. Rose doubted that anyone gave a damn about staying up past curfew on the first day. Some of the students behind those windows could be doing that right now.

Rose wasn't entirely sure what she was going to do first thing in the morning. Probably study the map of Eureka a little bit more or at least see what the classrooms were like. The instructors here would more than likely be a little...different than the teachers that she had in the past.

“So…” Alyss then said with a brief pause. “you have your own dorm all to yourself, right? That must be rather nice.”

That probably would be the common reaction to having a single dorm, but Rose thought just a bit on the contrary. "It is. I won't have to worry about what kind of room mate I've been assigned to or any unnecessary annoyances and the like. But at the same time," She said, using her free hand to scratch her head. "I don't like too much solitude. I'd assume if I wanted to see someone without leaving the sects, I'd either go to someone's dorm or invite someone to my own, but I always feel the need to do something; with someone. Chances are I won't be in my dorm very often, in all honesty."

By the time she explained that, they were on another floor. They had passed one before on the way up the stairs, and considering that it was the second floor, she could only hope that it was the Red Sect, considering that was 2nd rank of the students here. Eying the names that were placed on the top of the doors, she noticed that the hold on them was red in color - meaning this had to be the red sect. "Well, I believe we've reached your destination."

​
There were indeed at the Red Sect dorms. The halls were still lit much to Alyss relief. However, she was a little saddened that the day was soon to be over. “T-thank you, for everything.” Alyss said as Rose released her sleeve. “I am… really sorry for what happened today. I wish you did not have to witness that.” Alyss rubbed her left arm over her right and looked down. It was obvious that she was still pretty embarrassed about it. “If you would like, I will probably be at the Library early tomorrow morning. We can grab breakfast… or something… anything is fine, really.”

She looked back up at Rose, hoping that she wouldn’t think Alyss a complete loser.
 
OOC: Due to my own fault, i think i held Kevin back with Zorzi. But regardless, should wrap up the convo asap. Ill excuse Escaflowne this post.
​

Escaflowne Zraith

"Sì (Yes.) I am a new student here. I've heard much about this school from a family friend who used to go here. But never before have I ever thought it would be a floating school high in the cloud, huh Signora?"

Ah well, considering what many of the sutdens here are capable of, i guess it isnt too farfetched, but i agree. It does make the air fresher up at this heignt

"What about you? How did you come to learn about this academy?"

Hm... parents. They thought i'd hone my sense of responsibility and discipline here.... but... id say they were half successful.

Escaflowne gave to herself a rather cheeky grin. There were certain facts ommitted from her reports to her parents. Sure, she was StuCo Vice President, but unfortunately, she didn't quite act the full part. While they got the image of her being stoic, disciplined and responsible, she was in fact a bit lazy. Though her honing her skills was true though


"Oh yes! I'm glad you remember me.That mission was the one with Orion going missing. The both of you can call me Pharra Lee. Or whatever you'd like."

Sure, Pharra. And yea, that's the one.

"What about you? How did you come to learn about this academy?"

"My brother and sister have gone here so naturally I ended up here as well.Oh, sorry Zee, if I can call you that, I mean, sorry."

Ah, no problem. Formalities between associates are a bit annoying, but you're Stella's sis, so its all cool.

Nicolo, where are you from? Your speech is a bit different but I cannot recognize it."

Pharra made an interesting point. It was definitely Italian. That much she was sure of. However, Even though she had travelled there before, she couldn't quite put her finger onto which part of Italy was his accent from.

"I am from Italia. Dalla città di Bracciano. (From the town of Bracciano.) It's not far from the capital city of Roma, il mio amico." (my friend.)

Ah... the middle then. How wonderful. Eureka is indeed very multicultural.

Her phone suddenly went off, its alarm chiming. With one slick movement, Escaflowne slid it out and flicked it open.

Ah.... bugger. I am sorry guys, but i got an early start tomorrow, so i got to go, but its great seeing yo guys. Hope to see you around school some time. Remember to say hi and don't be a stranger.

Escaflowne opened a portal straight to her room on the wall behind her and leapt off the seat she balanced on, before promptly landing on the floor of her room. Making sure she closed the portal properly, Escaflowne flung off all her clothes went for a quick shower, just to get the grime off before slipping, off into bed as she was.


​
 
OOC: I'll do the same here before the timeskip. Oli, has anyone registered for classes yet?

IC:
Nicolo Zorzi

Ah... the middle then. How wonderful. Eureka is indeed very multicultural.

"Ah, indeed." Nicolo said with a smile. He knew it was true, with what the many fantastical people who come here. Dragons and elves and wolves, Eureka is just as magical as he had heard. Just then Nicolo heard a cellphone ring, and it was Zee who opened it up.

Ah.... bugger. I am sorry guys, but i got an early start tomorrow, so i got to go, but its great seeing yo guys. Hope to see you around school some time. Remember to say hi and don't be a stranger.

"Likewise, and thank you for the advice. Buona Notte, amico!" (Good Night, friend)

After Zee left by a portal, he took up his tray with an empty bowl and said to Pharra. "I think I should do the same, get ready for classes tomorrow. Arriverderci (Goodbye), Signora Pharra." Nicolo took a bow before leaving to put up his tray.

Once out of the cafeteria, Nicolo decided to do some free running, find the quickest way back to his dorm. Fortunately, Nicolo took the time to memorize the map of the Island before coming here, so he knows the layout on the outside. It's only on the inside that he would have trouble, but it would not be an issue.

From this Nicolo began climbing up a nearby tree until he got up to the second branch. Once he got on the branch, he started swinging from the edge of the branch until he let go and landed on another tree branch from a different tree. Using this momentum, he continued jumping from tree to tree heading back to his dorm.

It was going to be a good semester, that he knows for sure.

"Aw, it was nothing. After all, I wasn't aware that you had that kind of phobia, so it was my fault for causing that scene." Rose assured her. Despite that Alyss had looked a little bit embarrassed about what happened, she would be lying if she said that she didn't have a bit of fun tonight. The tour ended rather quickly, but it would continue soon enough.

“If you would like, I will probably be at the Library early tomorrow morning. We can grab breakfast… or something… anything is fine, really.”

After having dinner a while ago, she could only imagine what the Academy served at the morning shift. Probably things that she may have tried back at home; only better. "That's fine by me. Since we didn't get to go there as promised tonight, there's no harm for tomorrow." Of course, it would more than likely be like Alyss would give her the tour around the library just as Rose had led the walk around the school. It would be a table turn if that were to happen, but it would be amusing at the same time. While they stood at the start of the sect, Rose thought she heard several more voices, like more students turning in for the night. "Well, it's off to the sack for me. I did enjoy that little adventure we got to do. I'll see you later."

She did a wave and a smile before quickly walking back over to the stairwell to walk up one more level. Once that was done with, she ran over to the door to her dorm and walked into her room - turning the light son and shutting the door behind her once she was in. Oddly, she wasn't as tired as she thought she would be, and since she had no classes on Monday, she could wake up anytime she wanted to. But she had just planned something for the morning, and she wanted the day to last as long as possible. Deciding to save the shower for the morning, she undid the buttons on her blazer and hung it on the wall to wear tomorrow. Just putting on a night gown, she had walked over to her bed and flopped on it from behind. She would probably rest well tonight.

Alyss Mithrandir​
​
Alyss’ eyes lit up as Rose agreed to breakfast in the morning. She made a promise in her head at that moment to not be a complete and total spaz around her. Then again… there was no way that Rose could think any less of her. After all, she did manage to see her at her absolute worst today and she decided to stay with her. Alyss was sad to see Rose go, but at least they would get to do more things tomorrow. Smiling and waving as Rose walked off, she hoped that her new roommate wasn’t out for blood.

She slowly opened the door and looked around. Double-taking to make sure that no one was up, she snuck slowly to her bedroom. “I really hope my roommate does not mind…” Alyss whispered to herself. She dressed out of her kimono and into her sleeping attire… which was essentially just another kimono. Only, it was easier to get in and out of. Unlike her typical everyday ones which took quite some time to set up.

Every light in her room was on, just like she did at home. Alyss couldn’t sleep a wink if it was pitch black around her. She would get far too scared and start crying. As she lay there, looking at the ceiling, she thought back on everything that had happened to her since she had been here. Even something as simple as eating was made exciting! Falling asleep, she couldn’t wait for tomorrow.
 
DAY 1
Monday - 7:45 a.m.​

Stella sleepily opened her eyes at the sound of birds chirping happily from above her. She turned over to her side to look out onto the small balcony, clouds grazing past her window. She could tell that this morning would be a fresh start to an active day. She sat up, her body shivering from the cool wind flowing throughout her bedroom.

"Ah!" Stella sounding frustrated dragged her body up and quickly stumbled over the the window to close it, knowing very well that she was trapping birds within the room.

Letting out a huge sigh and stretching her arms outward Stella felt like the nights sleep had really calmed her down from the scuffle of the evening before. The room still felt a bit chilly as the girl made her way into her bathroom, stripping off peices of clothing until she finally rested aganst the glass of her tshower door. "Eep!" She screamed as a jet of hot water shot out of the showerhead.

For a second she didn't realise she had bumped into the knob, but the warm water felt good, almost like a jolt of life to her body. She would now feel just perfect to getthe day started. And knowing classes wouldbestaring soon...Wait...Stella paused for a minute as she reached for the soap dish. I fclasses were startiing soon thatwould mean missions need to be put up! "AH! Oh no I forgot to post themission sheet up!!!" she screamed from the shower.

She grabbed her bar of soap lathering herself in a rush and hopping on her toes in a bit of nervousness. Akabea would not like tardiness at all! "Eep! 7:48 already?!?!"
Stella rushed outof theshower, leaving the water running hot. She felt like a sports star as she leapt to her wardrobe, arms outstretched to pull out her clothes. After mere seconds of sliding into her usual skirt, shoes and tshirt top and tugging on her white blazer, Stella had dove across her bed to snatch up mission lists upon the floor on the other side. "Aha!" She sang in triumph.

With her papers in hand, herself fully dressed and her fighting staff at the ready Stella was fully prepared for a full day at Eureka Academy. Without a word the girl dashed for the door, running out to go accomplish her duties.

---------------------------------------------​

Akabea arose from his bath and stepped out onto a towel placed upon the floor. GRabbing a towel from nearby the man dried himself and quickly threw on his undergarmets. The good part about havinga youthful body was that it could never grow tired so easily, nor could it become too much of a hassle to bulkup. Staring at a black ring he wore, the short headmaster scoffed and then proceeded to his closet. The same outfits were aligned in neat rows, and just as he desired, a snap of his fingers had made the outfits clothe him themselves while he stood, gazing out towards a nearby window.

Today would be a day full of rain, for the gray clouds fortold his. The headmaster didn't mind a little rain for today. He would already have tons of indoor work to do anyway. Once his charm had worked Akabea Walked through a narrow corridor, lined with ugly green wallpaper with blue patterns of which Akabea both liked and despised for it's gloomy yet precise display.

The man gave a sigh as he had opened a door to his office. He made sure to lock the door behind him and walked over to his desk, fumbling about the drawers until he found his notes on the research about portals. The first missions of the Semester would be starting soon and he would have to be ready to brief the participating students.

A book of research now tucked under his arm and an eyepatch placed upon his face, have given him the drive to go and stand where the mission signups were. He left his office at once and emerged out onto a big staircase leading to the Great Hall.

---------------------------------------------​

Pharra had awakened at a jolt from her phone going off. She could feel it vibrating somewhere underneath her pillow. Flipping open the cell pharra placed it to her ear and let out a grunt in the form of hello. "Hello? Pharra?" came the voice on the other end.

"Mungkjf Stella?" Pharra replied, her eyelids drooping in the dark room.

"Hey! I need you to send me down to the bulletin board!" Stella's voice echoed from the other end of the phone.

"ooooooooooh" Pharra moaned in protest as she tried forcing here eyes open.

She sat up in her bed and shook her head, looking around. Her pink pajamas were just a few of the only objects she could see in the dark room. "Why can't you just walk?" Pharra asked annoyed.

"I need to get there before Akabea! He's already busy talking to students on the staircase of the second floor. I need to put the missions up before he gets there! PLEASE!"
Pharra knew just as well as her sister that the new headmaster liked things to run smoothly and on time. She stood and shuffled out of her room and past the small living room to open up her front door where she spotted her sister already standing there. "Well this makes things easier." Pharra spoke as she began her spell right away.

"Thanks sis." Stella said disappearing from sight right before her in a small white light.

The morning seemed to begin with an air of tedious tasks as now that she was awake Pharra would nodoubt be getting dressed in her room to get to the cafeteria once it opened at 8 o clock.
 
Alyss Mithrandir​
​
Alyss woke up without an alarm clock usually, and this morning was no different at all. Opening her eyes, she looked around to her still brightly lit room which was now lit up even brighter thanks to the sun peeking through the windows. There was a lot she wanted to do today. She wanted to go to the library, speak with Rose, and if they had the time, explore the rest of the school. There were also rumors of a bulletin board were “missions” were posted. Even if she wasn’t particularly interested, she would check it out. Besides, if they gave money, perhaps she would do one of the easier ones.

Rising out of bed, she put on some fuzzy pink slippers and walked to the restroom. She was going to need a shower, and taking one first the in the morning was always good. Not to mention it was the best time for a shower. It would wake you up, get you going, and make the entire day pretty enjoyable. She turned on the hot water in the shower of the otherwise plain restroom. Looking around, it really was just a somewhat midsized restroom with a sink, toilet, and a shower. Of course there was a mirror in front of the sink, just like every other restroom in the world.

Getting undressed, Alyss untied her hair and jumped in the shower. She washed her hair and ensured that she did all the necessary things to ensure that she got clean, and stayed clean. Her classes didn’t start until Wednesday. Well, it was one class, really… but she still had the next couple of days to do whatever. Her teacher had an odd name: Ecthelion Anwamane was it? It wasn’t a name familiar to her, and in fact, she couldn’t tell if it was a male or female from just the name. Of course, that wasn’t the only thing on her mind as she showered.

She couldn’t help but be somewhat fascinated by Rose. It was odd how someone that was essentially the complete opposite of her could stand to be her friend. As far as Alyss was concerned, Rose was amazing… fascinating… a good friend to have around. If someone started picking on Alyss, Rose seemed to be the type of person to pound them into dust.

Washing her hair, she continued thinking… The entire Disciplinary Committee also seemed nice. If she ever had any problems, she could easily go to them. They all seemed reasonable enough… but that Man; Raistlin… He scared her; a lot. Something about him just seemed off. Sure, he sounded nice, he acted nice, but every fiber of her being told her that if she made him angry… if anyone made him angry, he wouldn’t stop at just a beating. He could very well kill a person and probably never think twice about it.

She turned off the shower and stepped out, drying herself off. This place sure is exciting, thought Alyss. Opening the bathroom door, she walked back into her room and got dressed in the same style kimono as before. All of her pants were very loose Hakama that were made for allowing her to move her legs comfortably.

As she dressed herself, she tied back her long white hair into her traditional pony tail and went into the living room area of the dorm. She wondered if she would see her roommate there.

Raistlin Majere​
​
Raistlin hadn’t slept that entire night. He had taken his shower about an hour ago, and the time appeared to be around 8:00am. There wasn’t much for him to do today. All that was needed was that he made the same rounds, ensured that everything was okay around the campus, and… that was about it. When he was head of the DisCom, his job was to look for trouble and stop it. That wasn’t the case with his new position. He just… waited… and waited… and waited. Today, he planned on going around, looking for trouble again, and just as before, he would put a stop to it.

Dressed in his typical robes, he let his long white hair just fly everywhere as he opened the only door to his Allod that led into the Student Council room. Sitting down in the nearest chair, he waited for a bit. “I think I’ll just wait here for a bit, just in case anyone shows up.” After all, you never quite knew what to expect here.

Ecthelion Anwamane​
​
Ecthelion woke up in his classroom. He spent the entire night setting it up just the way he wanted it. Desks were arranged in a giant circle, where he would stand in the middle to teach. Of course, that was his first class of the week, during the second; he had a whole other surprise for his students. Laughing to himself, he left his classroom and locked the door. He was starving… having not at the night before he planned on eating a rather large breakfast. He started walking to the cafeteria as he thought about what all he could do to make his class even more exciting.

__________________________________________

There was no doubt that sleeping patterns were going to be constantly mixed up this semester. Estrella had went to sleep around early morning due to the fact that chances were slim anyone could have been staying up past hours. That and she was a bit drowsier than she usually was during that time of day. Opening her eyes slowly as she woke up, her vision adjusted quickly to her surroundings, noting that her clock said that it was seven in the morning, a little bit earlier than the time most of the students were supposed to wake up, and much earlier before breakfast would start.

Gradually pushing herself up off the bed, some of her silver hair fell messily over her shoulders as she glanced over at the window - the first thing she would do every morning after waking up. Observing the sky, she noticed that it was all hidden by an endless mass of dark clouds. It looked like it was going to rain today, and that was good news on Estrella's part. She wouldn't have to worry at all about staying outside for a while, though she was aware of some people that detested the rain, for whatever reason they had. Checking the weather section of her cell phone, it reported that it would rain for the majority of the day. Experiencing a storm this high up in the sky would probably be somewhat different than how it's usually dealt with on ground level.

Estrella's first task would be to shower, of course. Turning on the water, she gave it time to warm up as she slid out of her night gown and folded it, placing it in the drawer with her other night accessories. The feeling of moderately warm water was inviting to her skin as she went back in, her long hair sticking to it as it got damp from the moisture. As she bathed herself, she was also deep in her own thoughts, some of them reflecting last night and most of them being about the outlook of the future in Eureka. Setting a good example for the rest of the Disciplinary Committee wouldn't be a problem at all, but she did hope she wouldn't have to turn to extreme measures to keep the students in their place. It was obvious that it was a possibility, considering what she witnessed on the first day.

Today was the start of classes and of missions. Other than interning at the library, Estrella didn't have any classes to attend to today. Of course, she would check the missions board sometime today as she didn't want to be without something to do all day, and more than likely with Veerle or Delijah -whoever she came across first- to see if there was anything that was needed to know that wasn't mentioned last night at dinner. Athena probably wouldn't be a bad person to ask either, since she was considered an alumni to DisCom. Other than that, Estrella was already aware of the main duties she was assigned to commence.

Drying her hair and the rest of herself off, the silverette changed into a pair of lounge pants and a tank top to wear until the time came for her to dress for the rest of the day. She eyed her black blazer, noting that people probably wouldn't know she was in the committee unless there was some kind of symbol representing it on the blazer. Glancing over at the clock, she saw that it had only been fifteen minutes since she woke up. That probably would give her enough time to refurbish her blazer somehow. She pulled the crafting and sewing kit out from underneath the bed, thinking about how it could be done. Opening the top of it, she noted that the original DisCom blazer was yellow or gold. Despite yellow being her least favorite color, there were many accessories of that shade available to use.

Taking out a long and small gold chain and the letter charms 'D' and 'C' which were copper colored, she thought that she could attach the chain across the back of her blazer, the letters hanging on it so that people would know her place in the Academy. Walking over to the wall, she took her blazer off of the hanger that held it neatly. It would be a quick and easy task to do.

____________________________________________________________
A loud and obnoxious noise had broke Rosalynn from her sleep. Her face was buried in the pillow, yet she reached out her left arm to blindly try and find the snooze button of her alarm clock. After several seconds of feeling around her table, her hand found the switch and turned off the blaring alarm. One thing that she had hoped were that the walls weren't thin so that no one else could hear it. Flipping herself around on her back and then sitting up, her muscles were awfully stiff, and her hair was curling in directions and sizes that went against her usual standards.

Yawning as she brought her legs over the side of the bed, she was so used to waking up later for the schools she used to go to. Back then, she wouldn't have to wake up till at least nine in the morning. Now here she was, sitting somewhat drowsy on her bed at 7:41. Rose knew she would adjust to it after a while, but for now, she could use an energy boost. Forgetting to take a shower before she went to bed last night, she would have to take one now. A cold shower would more than likely get her up and running, but from the look of the weather outside, it seemed like she would probably regret it later. She had adapted to hot weather most of her life, and absolutely hated the feeling of humidity and coldness.

She stood up from her bed and turned on the disk player that sat on one of the wall shelves, putting on the Piano Concerto album conducted by Mozart before stepping into the shower. People would more than likely think that she wasn't the type that liked classical music; often judging by appearance. Most of her musical tastes came on the side of classical, piano, or easy listening. It must have come from the fey side of her genes, since it was somewhat overlapped by her ecstatic and adventurous nature. As she pushed her hair back behind her ears to begin washing it, she had thought about what had happened last night during her little trip with Alyss.

Rose could easily tell that the elf was innocent in a lot of things, like leaving her hometown. If there was a possible way to leave and come back to the island of Eureka, she would definitely take the chance to use it to explore a little bit more when she had the time, and maybe even take Alyss with her if she willed it so. There was so much to see and learn on this planet that she was missing out on, and Rose was probably the right person to choose to change that.

She then remembered what they discussed before they had departed. Neither of them had classes today, so they had the entire day to themselves to do whatever. Rose definitely wanted to see what types of missions were assigned at the Academy, and would be willing to go complete some herself. The sudden memory of Alyss having the slight panic attack about fighting monsters came to her thoughts, and she began to wonder if she was planning on going through any missions. Rose imagined that she would have to at some point to count as participation in the school system. But if there was the chance they went to a mission together, Rose would outwit any adversary that was above Alyss' level.

The shower was very much refreshing, and the half-fey was in a good mood for the start of the morning. Breakfast would probably start soon, so she would probably have to get ready this moment. As she towel dried herself, she suddenly frowned at a thought she had gotten out of nowhere. Do they do property inspections here? Rose glanced over at the bottom of her bed, walking over as she slowly pulled out the bag which she had sneaked in some different types of alcohol. Taking out one of the bottles of Caribbean rum, she eyed it warily as she then got another thought. Staff only assigned that in public schools were most arms and drug uses were zero tolerance on campus. This was a Academy to learn how to battle, so the staff would probably expect students to have a dangerous weapon or two within their dorms, so there was no need to check. If that was the case, Rose figured that she was safe for now.

Just out of pure thirst, Rose had twisted the top out of the bottle and took a rather long swig of the rum. As she swallowed it down, it had burned down her throat the entire time, and the taste was exquisite - just the way she liked it. After taking a few swallows, she had placed the bottle back in her bag and shoved it far underneath her bed. No way was she going to place them in her miniature fridge, for the guests that may come over on occasions would probably see the liquors and go snitch on her. That was the last thing she wanted to deal with. Washing her mouth with a wet rag so that the smell couldn't linger, she then went to change into her blazer and in a short white skirt. When she decided that she was ready for the day to start, she stepped out of her dorm room and shut the door behind her. Making her way to the living area, she wondered if Alyss or anyone else was awake this moment.

Elaine Chevalier-7:45 AM

The StuCo member slowly got up from her sleep. Her room was lit up from the sunlight, some of which beamed down on her face.

Getting up from off her bed, she proceded to get ready, change her clothes, brush her teeth and hair, and be ready for breakfast. She decided not to bother equipping herself for her mission, since this will be more or less an airship racing competition. If there were any borders of the sort, then she'll knock some sense into them with her fists.

Heading out of her room, Elaine saw Raistlin make his way to the Student Council common room. She followed him in, and walked in after waiting for a few moments. "Good morning, Raistlin. How was your evening?"
