0 · 639 views · located in Liuena Academy

a character in “Liuena Academy”, as played by FateWhisperer

Description

Image

Image




Age:18

Gender:Male

Element/Type of Magic:Shadow: Psychic. Austin, unlike Aberdeen, has abilities that are more mental and energy based. He can see the future though not voluntarily, via dreams and at random times of the day. By touching objects through psychometry, Austin can see the past or future of an object or a person, but there is no indication whether it has happened or will happen. Other abilities include: shooting energy balls and seeing auras of people and ghosts. However, the only abilities he is aware of are psychometry and seeing the future.

Weapon:None, unless you count his mind.

Height:5’7”

Weight:145 lbs

Image

Appearance:Austin Andrews is much taller than his cousin Aberdeen but has some similarities in appearance. His hair is also purple and long past the waist, but in a lighter shade very close to orchid. Unlike Aberdeen his eyes are topaz yellow and he wears sporty clothes. His favorite attire is a indigo bubble vest, sleet blue t-shirt with a purple long sleeve underneath. With that he wears sky blue shorts, indigo knee pads, indigo gloves with the fingers cut off, and a pair of white sneakers with indigo laces. Frequently he wears his favorite white beanie hat with two blue wings as its insignia no matter what outfit he has on. Sometimes he wears white beats if he wants to go for a run or skateboard. Other times he wears his school uniform or more formal coats.





Personality:Austin is way more outgoing than Aberdeen and is immersed in a variety of sports, including basketball, swimming, volleyball, and tennis. He’s never afraid to say hi with a smile and he loves to skate around town on his skateboard to discover something new. It is very hard for Austin to sit still as he always wants to be on the go. He is also into very upbeat music and tends to listen to it on his runs or skates around town. However, with his upbeat attitude, he is afraid to show anything other than a happy face. If he is experiencing any problems or doubt, he tends to try to keep it to himself and maintain that happy attitude. A sign of him doing so would be if he pauses a bit, as he tends to collect his thoughts before proceeding with his fake happiness. With his recent discovery of his psychic powers however, it’s been getting harder to maintain that persona. He tends to be secretive about his powers. Many people mistook him for a girl or a girl that is trying to be a tomboy and that insults him a lot (even though he knows his hair has something to do with it).

Image

Likes:Sports, people, upbeat music, riding around town

Dislikes:unknown, staying still, girls with high pitched voices, laziness, people thinking he is a girl

Flaws:impatient, blunt, upfront, inconsiderate at times

Talents:very skilled at sports, particularly basketball, good runner, secretly a trickster

Fears:his powers (especially whether the visions he sees are real or not), the unknown (magic especially)




Image

Bio:Austin Andrews is Aberdeen’s cousin from her father’s side. Unlike Aberdeen he is Cody and Sydney’s only child and is not aware of Magni. When Brooklyn died, he was around fifteen years of age and recalls being able to see an azure aura near Aberdeen. He did not recognize the aura as “Brook,” however. Before, Austin and Aberdeen were very close as cousins along with Brook, but afterwards Aberdeen became more distant to him and so they haven’t seen each other much. Austin does stop by Aberdeen’s place occasionally to see how she’s been and how she’s grown, but they don’t exchange many words.
Austin had recently received a call from the hospital telling him that his grandmother Alma had passed away and that his uncle and aunt were injured during a strange incident of a monster in the city. Austin rushed over with his parents to the hospital to check his uncle and aunt’s condition, wondering why Aberdeen wasn’t present with her parents. When he got to the hospital, Austin found out that Aberdeen was called to come meet her parents but she never came. That night, he had a vision of Aberdeen being attacked by some shadowy figures and calling out the name “Lucy.” After that vision he saw Aberdeen walking along a beach. When he woke up, he set out for the beach determined to find his cousin.





Other: Austin doesn’t know his demon.

Age:50
Gender:Male...at least that’s what "he" was told
Element/Type of Magic:Shadow: Psychic
Image
Appearance: Bates is a white creature with some lilac that is small and somewhat like a bunny and a tiny bear. He has two beady green eyes, three small claws on both of his hands, and a symbol on his forehead with four triangles, three black ones surrounding an upside down red one.




Personality:Bates is very hyper and curious, always wanting to eat something and play. He can be shy sometimes when he wants to hide, but usually he loves to talk to anyone.
Image
Likes:playing, observing, eating
Dislikes:being quiet, food stealers, people with no imagination
Flaws:clueless, childish, naive
Talents:able to talk incredibly fast when hyper, very bouncy
Fears:big mean nasty things, that Magni wouldn’t accept him



Image
Bio: Bates is a very young demon, so he doesn’t have much experience with other demons or with powers in general. However, what can be said of him is how he “met” Austin. He just saw Austin randomly and thought he was a very interesting fellow to follow. Ever since he met Austin at about 5 years old, he has been watching him and secretly playing with him. However, as he grew up, Bates has been nervous to reveal himself to Austin, thinking that he might not like someone as small and frail as he is. He does want Austin to know who he is though.




Other: Bates is actually a nickname for his real name, Betavaliente. He couldn’t even say his own name, just “Bates.”

“Ugghh
 my head
it’s throbbing so much
”

The girl with long indigo black hair slowly helped herself up from the sidewalk, wondering where she was. The town she was in seemed to be not too far from a beach and it was quiet with nobody on the streets. She rubbed her head feeling a bit dizzy from the fall, wondering how she fell in the first place. Looking at the beach bustling with life, she decided to head over there hoping someone can tell her where she was.

Walking along with her lacy black boots on the beach was a bit difficult, but she didn’t want to take them off. Burning her feet and skipping all around the beach to create a scene wasn’t something she intended to do. She glanced over to a random guy in blue shorts and asked, “Do you know where I am?”

The guy looked at her funny and said, “The beach, duh. Who the hell are you to wear a long dress in the middle of the beach!”

“I’m—“ the girl began. She couldn’t understand why it was so difficult to say such basic information but it was. No matter how hard she thought, she couldn’t come up with her name.

“Who am I? Do you know who I am?” she asked.

But the guy had already left to go play in the water with his friends. The girl walked along the beach further trying to think about her name when she heard her phone ring. It was her event alarm that sounded but she couldn’t understand what the message meant, “Find Lucy.” Confused, she decided to go to one of the shacks for some food, hoping it could jog her memory somehow.

Austin

“Aberdeen where are you?” he said to himself while riding on his skateboard. Austin had been looking for his cousin ever since he found out that she never showed up at the hospital where her parents were recovering from their injuries. “First Grandma Alma passed away, then uncle and auntie got caught up in that city incident, and now Aberdeen is missing. What the heck
”

At first, Austin was at a loss what to do about the situation. However, last night he had another one of his visions. Aberdeen was being ambushed by some figures in dark cloaks. They took away some black blob she referred to as “Lucy” and then left her on a sidewalk. Austin didn’t know what to make of that vision for awhile. He thought his worries have morphed into some weird nightmares, but he knew his dreams sometimes told him what has happened or what will happen and he couldn’t take it lightly. He remembered that Aberdeen was on a sidewalk and that it was close to what seemed like a beach. Recognizing the area, Austin decided to head over there without his parents’ permission, determined to find Aberdeen.

Austin roamed through the streets trying to find the sidewalk that was across the beach that he saw in his vision. When he found the area, he got off his skateboard and touched his hand on the sidewalk, hoping he would be able to get some information. His eyes went to the back of his head as his mind raced through the past and future of the area of the sidewalk he touched. One vision caught his interest: Aberdeen walking towards the beach that was across from the sidewalk with a confused look.

“The beach! She must be at the beach! Or
she will be. Gahh why can’t my visions tell me when this is happening! Still I got a lead
it’s better than nothing!’

Austin headed over the beach carrying his skateboard wondering how he was going to find her when he hasn’t seen her in awhile. All he had was a picture of her when she was about thirteen, before Brook passed away. She was more cheerful in that picture, smiling with a white sundress and hat waving towards the camera. He hadn’t seen her smile like that in years. Would anyone be able to recognize her features?

While contemplating who to ask, Austin saw an azure aura in front of him, the same aura he had seen with Aberdeen. He looked to his left and to his right, no one noticed but him. “What are you? Why have you been with Aberdeen since the incident?” What am I doing talking to an invisible aura in the beach! The aura drew closer to Austin’s hand and Austin’s eyes drew in themselves again. He saw visions of Brooklyn before her death: Their times together, their laughs, and Brooklyn smiling as if towards him. Austin came back to his senses after seeing Brook smile, catching his breath, and it came to him.

“Brook? I-Is that you? B-but how?”

Brooklyn wished she could speak to her cousin, or at least appear more than just an aura to his senses. However she knew that her presence was enough at least, especially for the task at hand.

“Brook, do you know how I can find Aberdeen?”

The light aura moved towards a group of children with a bear (Kirie, Cassandra, Jaxon) and Austin followed it. “Brook,” Austin whispered, “What am I supposed to do?” Brook didn’t respond so Austin figured he might as well be upfront about it.

“Hey guys, can I just ask you a favor? Have you seen this girl around here? She’s my cousin.” Austin showed them the picture hoping that one of them knew her whereabouts.

Kirie

Kirie was unsure of how he should react to what happened to Cassandra. First she bit a bear and wouldn’t let go even when the vendor and her helpers tried to pry the girl off. A chuckle escaped his lips at how she dealt with the helpers one of which would most certainly be sued or at least he had hoped.

He took the bear from Cassandra but held it as if it were infected. There was still a little bit of drool on it and he was about to say something about it when a voice spoke up. Turning to the source, Kirie saw a girl with long blue hair or at least assumed it was a girl by the hair but their clothes were what one would expect a guy to wear.

Shaking his head, Kirie relayed the question in his mind and gently took the picture from the kids grasp to get a better look at whoever it was. Looking at his closely the girl in the picture was pretty familiar but he just couldn’t figure out who. Looking at the kid he asked his question, “She looks really familiar but I just can’t put my finger on it. Does she have a name?”

Austin
Austin tapped his foot and looked at the slightly taller white haired glasses kid, waiting for a reply. Although the kid only took a few minutes to take the picture and examine it, Austin was getting impatient for it felt like hours. He wanted to get to Aberdeen before something bad happened to her. He couldn't shake this horrible vibe he had that he hoped wasn't part of his powers that he didn't even understand.

When the kid finally finished he asked Austin, "She looks really familiar but I just can't put my finger on it. Does she have a name?"

"Aberdeen. Her name is Aberdeen. I know this isn't the most recent picture of her but she should still look something like this. You said she looked familiar, so does the name help?" Austin couldn't help but say this speedily for he was growing anxious. He took a deep breath and sighed, pulling his white beanie down and adjusting the grip on his skateboard.

Bates
Bates almost had a hard time catching up with Austin down the road. He didn't expect him to go full speed after his cousin. Still, he was having a blast. "Finally an adventure with Austin! I can't wait!" Bates grinned. "He doesn't know me though so I gotta keep quiet and make sure he doesn't notice me," Bates reminded himself. While Austin was riding his skateboard down the street, Bates was bouncing up and down hiding behind bushes from time to time and climbing on rooftops when his bounces got very high. "Bounce Bounce Bounce! It's always fun to bounce!" Bates sang to himself. When Austin stopped all of a sudden, Bates observed him from a distance. Bates understood what Austin was doing, for he had seen him peer into an object's past or future many times before. After Austin rushed to the beach, Bates followed suit, eager to follow his Magni to wherever he goes. Along the way however, a whole see of people rushed in and Bates was knocked over to the side.

"Owwww, humans sure are mean! They didn't even notice me!"

Bates searched the crowd for Austin but he couldn't really see due to his small size.

"Awww..I lost Austin! What am I going to do now??"

Bates struggled through the sand and crowd of people, wondering how he was going to find his Magni when he bumped into a girl with long indigo hair eating some funnel cake. Bates' stomach suddenly growled and he held his stomach with his tiny paws, realizing he hadn't really eaten anything in awhile. He looked up to the girl who's eyes were wide with shock as she looked down on him wondering what he was.

"Awww...I'm hungry. Can I have some of your food? Pwweeeasse??? I'm tired and I got knocked by a bunch of mean people!" Bates eyes were beady and his mouth was curled a bit, hoping to make the girl feel sorry for him. The girl looked at him hesitantly at first, but then slowly ripped off a piece of the funnel cake, dipped it in the strawberry sauce, and slowly handed it to little Bates who gobbled it up rather quickly.

"Awww shucks thank you!!! Can I have some more?" Bates asked with his head cocked to the side and his lips formed into a smile. The girl giggled with her hand to her mouth and she gestured to a spot next to her on the bench she was sitting on for Bates to sit. Bates eagerly sat close to her and started shoving funnel cake to his face, forgetting the fact that he had lost Austin. The girl could only look at Bates and smile, wondering what the heck he was.

"Aberdeen... You said she looks familiar and that's the name of one of our classmates... Would she have hair the length of yours, usually really gloomy or down right creepy at times, Have a... uh 'companion' named Lucy, and lastly have the last name Andrews?" Blushing slightly he hid under the collar of his shirt. "Before you say anything, no I don't have a crush on her I just... like knowing who I'm around." Shaking his head and looking at the indigo haired person, Jaxon quick gave him a once over and coughed. "So... You must be often mistaken for a girl, I myself would've been confused too if I didn't dabble in how the body is structured between males and females as you're much taller and have slightly more muscle tone than a woman. Anyway If that is indeed who you're looking for I'd be more than happy to help. I'm not so sure about Sparky and this Cassandra girl but I have ways of looking around that uh... most others don't."

Contemplating for a second he looked over at his classmates and pulled Kirie over to him slightly "Hey... Do you think he knows anything about demons? I'll be discreet on my questions but I want to know who or what I'm dealing with. That aside I'll try to open portals up all over the beach and hotel area to look for her, if you want I can even go hide and look around from the roofs by my flash warp. It's your call Sparky." After whispering this to Kirie, Jaxon quickly pushed him aside and coughed before looking at the boy. "So.... uh.... You got a name there skater boy?"

Austin listened to the slender guy with bright orange hair as he described his cousin correctly in appearance and in character. He was in luck! The group of kids happen to be his cousin’s classmates! Austin had overheard his parents talking with Aberdeen’s parents about her going to some sort of Academy. What was it
Liuena?

That has to be Aberdeen, though I didn’t know she became a creepy type of girl. She must still be gloomy from Brook even now. I guess that’s why Brook brought me to these guys. Still


“Before you say anything, no I don’t have a crush on her I just
like knowing who I’m around,” the boy said, making Austin raise his eyebrow.

“Dude I didn’t ask, but whatever.”

However, upon the mention of his mistaken gender identity Austin became defensive growling, “Well you’re lucky then that you know or you’ll have to “dabble” in the force of my fists!” Austin’s eyes widened in anger, but then he reminded himself now was not the time to pummel the kid that knew where Aberdeen was lest he make him forget. He calmed himself down, knowing that he was going to help find Aberdeen and that was all that mattered. He signed and continued, “Anyway, thank you for your help. I’m Austin Andrews, Aberdeen’s cousin. And what are your names?”

Austin didn’t want to interject but something was bugging him.

“Oh and while you’re at it, what did you mean by being able to “look around in ways that most people don’t?” and of Aberdeen having a “companion” named Lucy?”

Austin didn’t want to tell them about his visions, but he decided to give a little bit of information from them hoping to get some answers about Aberdeen.

“Does she uh
is she a um
a black blob with uh
a mask..?” Saying it out loud sounded ridiculous so Austin changed it up with, "I mean.. is she a person in a black cloak with a mask?" nervously chuckling knowing that he probably made no sense whatsoever.

Kirie

He leaned in to better hear Jaxon and he made a pretty good point. Nodding his agreement, Kirie felt a feeling blossom through his chest and he realized that it was self-confidence. Then again who wouldn't feel confident in themselves if your classmate just made it your call. Kirie thought over what Jaxon told him and watched Austin carefully; he couldn’t help but smile at his reply to Jaxon’s previous words about how he didn’t have a crush on Aberdeen. “Yeah Jaxon, so no worries right? And I think it’s safe to say you’re not normal am I right Austin.”

From the way Austin was acting, he gave himself away when he tried to correct himself in describing Aberdeen’s oh so very creepy demon. Just thinking of Lucy gave him the goose bumps, both magni and demon were creepy but Aberdeen was a magni while Lucy wasn’t. “And to answer your previous question on Jaxon’s ways of “looking” around, he-actually I leave him to answer that as I’m not entirely sure how he does it. Let me show you something but of course I can’t show her to you here that would cause panic amongst the people.” Kirie smiled at him as if everything was alright and led the group away from all the vendors to a more secluded part of the beach.

Once they got there Kirie turned to face the rest of the group and made a gesture. However after a moment nothing happened and his face scrunched up in irritation and he released a sigh. “Raimei just come out, nothing’s going to happen. Besides its just for a few minutes and we’re nowhere near the water.” After a few seconds had passed something shot up from the ground below them then another which soon became apparent were bits of electricity. Raimei rose up from the ground, holding her arms in front of her in a shy manner. The air around them buzzed quietly with the presence of the electrical sprite. “Kirie why did you want me here. I thought your teacher said you can’t show me to humans.” she looked over her shoulder at her Magni. “I know but where all Magni here am I right? At least we know right but I don’t think Austin does, do you Austin?” He looked at Aberdeen’s cousin with a cold stare.

Austin

The ghost girl? Austin thought confused by the girl's statements. What the heck is she talking about? Aberdeen was depressed but...wait she's not dead is she???

After waiting for much consensus from the group, the white-haired boy suggested that Austin was not "normal." Austin couldn't help but be a bit defensive and quickly ask, "What do you mean I'm not normal?" He knew he shouldn't have added the detail from his visions, but he couldn't help it. He wanted to know where Aberdeen was and he figured going with as much detail as he is able to reveal would be fine. The white-haired man went on to explain the orange haired kid's ability to "look around" but then he stopped saying that he didn't understand the mechanics himself. Austin was starting to get suspicious with these kids and with Aberdeen. "Ghost girl,' "abilities," "not normal," what did all of this mean? Was Aberdeen not normal like he was?

While in thought, the white-haired man lead Austin and the group to something he cannot show because it "would cause panic amongst the people." He smiled at him and Austin returned a fake reassured smile, pretending to understand what was going on when he was clueless. It really bugged him to be clueless, especially at a really important time, but it was the only lead he got and all he could do was follow. Once they got to a secluded portion of the beach, the white-haired guy faced the group and made a gesture. Nothing happened, so he asked someone named "Raimei" to come out. Austin couldn't believe what his eyes were seeing. A short while after, something shot up from the ground, making Austin step back quickly from the source. Bits of electricity that were TALKING to the boy as though they were friends!

Shaking his finger that is pointed to the electricity, Austin asked shouting, "WHAT THE F*** IS THAT!?!?" The group seemed to view the talking electric creature as though it was a normal occurrence, but to Austin, this was far from normal and this frightened him. "Are you trying to pawn me? Is that is? Look I'm trying to find my cousin, not view some magic trick of yours! What the hell is a Magni and what do you mean that everyone here is one? I can't be one!! I'm not--"

Austin stopped mid sentence, remembering his abilities. While he breathed hard on what he had just witnessed, his mind thought back to what he was capable of doing: seeing the future in his dreams, telling the past or future of things he touches, and who knows what else he had in store. Then it hit him. "Aberdeen...is one...isn't she?"

????

"Why am I doing this?" she asked herself. She didn't know who she was, she didn't know where she was, and now she doesn't know who or what she is with. Some sort of small white and purple creature, like a bunny mixed with a bear, came up to her asking for food. Something compelled her to be nice and share her funnel cake (which by the way didn't help her recover her memory) even though she didn't know what the heck the creature was. She looked around trying to find out whether anyone noticed her and the creature, but thankfully no one did. Thinking this might not look so good, she grabbed the strange bunny-bear cross and headed to the back of the food shack, where there was thankfully no one.

"Oh boy I almost forgot!" the creature suddenly spoke again. She couldn't believe that it was speaking.

"Uh...what did you forget?" she asked timidly, playing along for now. Perhaps this was normal and she forgot!

"I forgot I was supposed to look for my friend! Well...my master...but I do wanna be his friend!" The optimism of this creature was refreshing to Aberdeen. Even though she was hopelessly confused and lost, she was talking to someone that didn't care and that was somewhat lost as well.

"Oh well, I'm trying to find out who I am...and now that I think about it..." Aberdeen took out her cellphone remembering the message, that told her to Find Lucy. "I think I'm looking for someone too. Do you know who Lucy is?"

The creature scratched his head and scrunched his face deep in thought. He mumbled a long "hmmmm" and kept pacing back and forth until he changed his face to look downcast and said, "Ohh sorry I don't know who that is."

She didn't mean to make the creature sad so she told him, "Awww don't be sad! Hey we're both lost so...let's look for who we're looking for together!" adding a smile to her face.

"Hooray!!! I have someone to help me!" the creature danced. "Ohh I better tell you how he looks like! He's kinda tall (though I think everyone is tall) and he has long purple hair and rides a long wheelie thingy that goes WHOOSSHH!!!!"

She hoped that the creature wasn't confusing the person with a girl. Still he was a step closer than she was. She doesn't even know how this "Lucy" looks like.

Kirie

The reaction was all Austin had to say in order to further justify Kirie’s first thoughts. The fact that the kid could see Raimei but also since he clearly had no idea what she was. It was safe to say the kid never had much of an education on Magni and demons. Although he was a bit hurt by Austin’s words but Raimei took it harder due to the extent of Austin’s language and the fact that he had called her a thing.

A look of may have been a smirk settled on his face as the truth finally came to Austin. “Yeah she is and her companion is a demon who goes by the name Lucy. Seeing as were Magni here there’s no point in trying to play ignorant.” Shaking his head he glanced at Raimei who let loose a few more sparks than she did normally and quietly asked her to go for the moment. “Well alright but I’m not a thing little boy. I’m far older than you and I’m what you people call an electric sprite and I do have a name so use it.” with that Raimei sizzled and sparked into nothingness. Surprised by the way Raimei acted Kirie couldn’t help but smile. He felt proud of his demon for standing up for herself but he also wondered as to how old she was exactly.

Cassa had been listening to it all. They were right. Unless this kid was a brilliant actor, he still would have to know what to look for. No, this wasn’t an act. Now that she thought about it. The kid was showing the tell tales signs that he wasn’t what he said he was. And , then again, what he gave off didn’t worry her. Should worse come to worse, she would deal with the problem like everything else: Smash it to bits with either Disturbix, or anything close by.

“You’re wasting your time, if this kid is trying to hide it, then he’s obviously smart enough to not admit it, for whatever reasons
”

Cassa was hungry. She saw some nerdy kid walking over with cheese fries. She licked her lips. Her favorite food. She reached into her pocket, only to find it that she had no cash. She shrugged. She easily intercepted the kid and bumped into him.

“Watch it, nerd!”

However, instead of the desired effect, she tripped. She could have sworn something tripped her up, like an unseen foot. When she landed, Disturbix came dislodged from her belt loop and landed just out of her reach. The kid had come over to her.

“Uh, are you alright? Do you need help?”

She grabbed his collar and pulled in close. There was bloody murder in her eyes.

“That was pretty ballsy, tripping me like that. My respects, but now I’m mangling you.”

“But
I didn’t
”

“What do you mean you didn’t?”

She reached for Disturbix to get some sense out of this kid. However, she realized it wasn’t there, when she looked around, she found it. However, what she saw was astonishing.

There was a person standing over it. Not a person though. This person had an aura. The kid went over, reached down, and picked up Disturbix for her. That confirmed her suspicions when he reached THROUGH the entity. It was unseen, yet there. This kid was protected by some being. So that’s what tripped her


“Huh?”

“Here, you dropped this.”

She looked at Disturbix for a moment, as if contemplating something before taking it.

“Thanks
I guess.”

“You’re not hurt are you?”

“Do I look hurt to you?”

“I don’t know, I didn’t look everywhere yet..”

Wrong words. She landed a solid punch to his left shoulder, but she saw the aura. The being spun him around enough that his outstretched arm delivered a powerful smack to her face. She growled. She was beginning to hate this thing. Like, really hate it.

“She wound back her fist for a second punch, when she saw tha aura
and then felt a breeze. It didn’t


She had been pantsed,,,,

The blush on her face was unimaginably deep. She used the Teddy Bear to cover up. Surprisingly, the kid was looking away. So, he wasn’t a perv. What a surprise. It was funny, he reminded her of someone but she didn’t know who
Maybe it would come to her when she situated her self.

“Fine, whatever you are that did this, I’m leaving.”

The kid looked at her like she was crazy as she discreetly pulled her shorts back up. She officially seethed with a hatred for spirits now. IF she had to guess, that was an angel that her dad had told her about


She rejoined the others, fryless, and hungry, and with a blush that mad mars seem colorless. She tried to hide a bit away from the others.

Upon hearing Sparky's companion get so flared up which was really unusual for her, Jaxon couldn't help but stifle a laugh. "Pfft, wow Rai I don't think I've ever seen you act with such bravado kudos to you little one. Anyway for me to explain my power is... A little hard to get into without writing out extremely long calculations for how it works. But what I can give you is an explanation. Now watch I will appear on top of that rock over by the ocean, behind you, and then back to my starting point." Popping his neck by moving his neck back and forth he looked at the boy and continued with one last thought. "Oh yeah and what you're about to see, don't freak out and draw attention over here."

That said he looked at his spot over to the rock and started his flash warp with a snap of his fingers to help keep their attention. From there he warped yet again and tapped the boy on his shoulder before appearing right in front of him again. "See? Easy enough as it is, but for myself and Sparky over there we have these abilities, his is lightning and mine is spatial distortion. Have you had any kind of special happenings around you? Like an ability that you can't help but call supernatural?" Looking around he continued. "Also with Rai over there Magnis have things called demons like mine is a little tomcat named Tama, do you by any chance have one follow you around or at least feel a presence besides you?" Looking around harder he didn't see anything and had a quizzical look on his face and scratched his head. "Nonetheless now you know what we are and what we can do, so why not fill us in with your questions and we'll try to answer them ok?" Stretching out his back he finally noticed Cassa appear behind them and shrug it off waiting for the boy to answer.

Austin

Austin’s head was going in circles trying to understand what was going on. His cousin is something called a “magni” and he’s surrounded by even more magni with lightning powers and spatial distortion powers. She has a demon named Lucy who was probably the black blob that she was calling out to. The rest of these magni also have demons like the cranky electro sprite who was supposedly older than he was. To top it all off, the group is asking him if he is one of them, trying to figure out whether he has supernatural powers or a demon just like they do. He was still trying to wrap his mind around what one kid did: teleporting behind him, tapping him on the shoulder, and flashing back in front of him in just mere seconds. All of this magic and talk of the supernatural overwhelmed him, and now he had to decide whether to confide in the people he just met about his own powers?

“Can’t help it I guess,” Austin shrugged. “Alright I’ll admit this stuff if it’ll get me closer to finding out the truth behind Aberdeen.”

“Before I ask questions, perhaps I should explain the nature of the supernatural phenomena that happens around me. I first remembered being able to see this aura around people
and spirits. I don’t know if Aberdeen ever told anyone this but her sister died about three years ago, and ever since then I’ve been able to see an aura around her that she talks to. I didn’t understand it at the time but
it was her..Brook
her sister that she was talking to. Three years later her grandmother passes away, her parents get into a citywide accident, and Aberdeen goes missing. Then I get these
visions of Aberdeen getting taken away somewhere and calling out to Lucy. I’ve gotten visions before that around two months ago, but something like this is just crazy. That’s how I got myself here to find her and I used this other ability I have. Whenever I touch something, whether it be an object, a person, a place, I can see the past or future of it but I can’t tell whether it happened or will happen. So I used that to tell whether she’s been here and I saw the same thing that happened in my visions plus her heading to the beach here. Then I saw the aura again, Brook, and she led me to you guys.”

“So there you have it
my freak of nature powers and some history lesson on myself and Aberdeen. As for a demon or a presence
 I don’t remember having one. I guess I just wanna know, if you guys are electricity and spatial distortion, what does that make me? What was Aberdeen’s type of magic? And
do you know what that citywide accident was?”

Austin had to restrain himself from screaming, “THIS IS CRAZY!!!” Although he tried to maintain a calmer composure than normal, his body was trying to resist, making him tap his foot with impatience and nervousness and shrug his arms.




Aberdeen

Suddenly after seeing the amazing display of instant rock formation and hearing a big “CLANK” from the impact of the rocks onto the door, Aberdeen’s head started to throb. She quickly held her head and fell down on her knees trying to take the pressure of her head.

“Aagghhhh!!” Aberdeen yelled. “G
GAAHHhhhhh!!” The pressure on her head was getting heavier and she gripped her head tighter. Bates ran to Aberdeen’s side and pulled on her dress asking her, “Hey what’s wrong?? Are you okay??”
In a flash, Aberdeen saw different visions go by, visions that didn’t seem to make sense. There was in a car with an older girl smiling at a much younger girl. Suddenly she swerves and a familiar sound rings in her ears, “CLANK!!” Red
a dead girl
a spirit girl
and her missing reflection


The pain stops and Aberdeen crashes onto the floor, relieved from the overwhelming amount of force that she felt inside her head. What were those visions she saw?

“Where did you go???” Bates called out.

“Ughh
what’re you talking about? I’m right here..” Aberdeen said weakly.

“Ahhh!!!” Bates jumped. “How did you do that?”

“Do what?” Aberdeen asked confused.

“You’re talking but
I can’t even see you!!”

“That’s nonsense I’m right—“ Aberdeen started until she looked at her hand. She started intently at the location she knew her hand had to be at, but she couldn’t see it even though her own body could feel it “there.”

“—Here
? Uhh
are you doing this?” Aberdeen asked the guy who had just done the stunt with the rocks.

Kirie

He grinned at Jaxon for having given Raimei an compliment, he had never really noticed how well Jaxon knew the both of them. I guess that comes with being roommates. He stifled a laugh as he watched Jaxon explain to Austin what he was about to do and grinned an even bigger smile at his last words. Already having seen Jaxon’s magic at work before, he took a step back and folded his arms.

He let Jaxon take the reins from there and only nodded along to what he said as a way to let Austin know what Jaxon said was true. Kirie glanced over at Cassandra wondering when it was she had left. Shrugging his shoulders he turned his attention back to the matter at hand.

“Can’t help it I guess,” Austin shrugged. “Alright I’ll admit this stuff if it’ll get me closer to finding out the truth behind Aberdeen.”

Raising one brow he gave Austin a quizzical look and waited to see if he would continue, which he did. All Kirie could do at the moment was listen to what Austin had to say and it was quite a bit. But he could understand where the kid was coming from. Taking a step forwards he looked over at Jaxon giving him a nod to let him know he would take it from there.

“Well that’s quite a history lesson you’ve told us. We were in the same class as her at our school but she never really opened up to us. You mentioned visions right and being able to see the past, future whatever when you touch an object, do they always come true? I mean do you know if what you see if right information? As for what sort of magic you have I kinda of have a general guess as to what it may be. I believe it stems from Shadow magic and from what you’re telling me of visions and stuff I’d guess yours is psychic but I’m not sure. I’m not sure what Aberdeen’s abilities were exactly but I think they also stemmed from Shadow magic.”

He paused for a moment when Austin mentioned the accident that occurred in the City not too long ago. Sighing he rubbed the back of his head and glanced over at Jaxon. “Well to put it simply a creature attacked the city and went on a rampage. Turned out it was just a student who fused with their demon, which is forbidden for that very reason. We lost a good friend getting the Magni to calm down and what not but I think he’s stable now.’

Jaxon looked at Kirie with a stoic face about the recollection of what had happened up until then and started off where he stopped. "Now with what you've heard I'm also guessing that you're angry that we don't know where she is, I understand this and I'm happy to have you come along. Although if you were to just run off I wouldn't mind that either, I mean who's going to believe some long haired kid tell them stories of the man who was in multiple places and once and the living lightbulb?" Smiling slightly apologetically at Kirie he continued. "Anyway back to the point, a Demon is a being that follows a magni as it is stemmed from birth to be a sort of.... magic source for the magni and also a protector of sorts. The fact I don't see your demon worries me as maybe you can't see it but others can, or it just seems to want to keep itself hidden from others.

Shaking his head Jaxon looked over to the side for a second and felt a fuzzy feeling on his neck. "Oh hey there Tama nice of you to join us.... though a little warning would've been appreciated as there are rules as to what's going on ya furball." Smiling a toothy grin Tama yawned and looked out from Jaxon's large collared shirt. 'But by the fact that you addressed me must mean we're safe right?!' Yawning slightly Tama looked over to Kirie and happily called out. 'Hi Kirie! How are you and Raimei doing? I've been locked up in a room all day so I'm a little antsy and who's this.... person...?' Looking at Austin he hid back into Jaxon's collar. 'Hey Jax... I think I screwed up right now by talking...' Chuckling slightly he looked down at the small cat and sighed. "You're fine Tama he's one of us as far as we're concerned whether he has powers or not he's stuck in this mad world we call magic."

Shaking his head and looking back at Austin he coughed slightly before saying one last thing. "Sorry about that tangent there Tama's a little.... eccentric but anyway are you with us or against us because either way it doesn't affect us. So make up your mind now or we'll lose whatever tracks we'd have on her. Capisce?

Austin

Austin couldn’t help but feel a pang in his heart hearing about how Aberdeen never really got close to anyone at the Academy.
”It seems even now she still hasn’t gotten over her,” Austin thought.

Austin did his best to follow what the other students of this Academy were saying. It seemed to make “sense” that his and Aberdeen’s magic stemmed from the same sort of form or source: Shadow magic. In particular, his own sub-genre was that of psychic. It seemed reasonable from the movies he’s seen or those video games he’s heard of where characters had psychic powers. He shook his head at the thought of all of this being ”reasonable” since—for crying out loud—this is magic they’re talking about here!

His line of crazy thought was stopped when Kirie had explained the cause of the destruction of the city. He was ready to grab Kirie and yell at the whole lot of them, wondering how a school could allow one of their own students to conduct such a forbidden ritual and destroy innocent lives...especially Grandma Alma’s. However he did his best to hold back until the explanations were finished, clenching his fists and thinking over and over ”for Aberdeen
for Aberdeen
”

Jaxon then continued where Kirie had ended and called him out on his anger, though on the other anger of Aberdeen’s disappearance (Just how could the Academy have lost contact of her??). At the mention of the concern over Austin’s demon, Austin gave it some thought. He seems to have some vague memory over some sort of guardian but he thought that was just a figment of his imagination. At the appearance of “Tama,” a white and gold cat, Austin jumped a bit, but then smirked at the creature’s peculiar nature.

Finally, Austin had a choice to make, but really he only had one lead.

“Well, all of this will take some
getting used to
but I need to find Aberdeen before something else happens so I’ll go with you guys. Do you even have any idea where she—“

Austin cut off his sentence as his eyes had turned inside his eyeballs and he grasped his head in pain. It was happening again. Another vision, though this time there was more pain associated with it as many visions seemed to be happening at once. Austin grunted before letting out a cry of pain and letting his hands grasp his head tighter. It felt as though his head’s veins were being squeezed tightly by several tight gripping hands.

The worse part however was the visions. There was a brief scene of Aberdeen meeting a small white bunny bear looking creature, a scene of the two of them eating some funnel cake, a scene of meeting another strange looking man with bright orange hair tied into a pony tail, a scene of that same man creating some rock structures busting a door, a scene of Aberdeen on the floor in pain and then disappearing. He couldn’t hear any voices, only see flashes of the scenes whirl past his “eyes” at lightning speed. It was hard to comprehend anything that was going on, so Austin could only make out a few details such as Aberdeen, some strange creature, and some man going to several places. He assumed that hopefully these were still places of the beach and that she wasn’t too far, but he couldn’t understand how Aberdeen could suddenly vanish into thin air. However, of all the visions, there was one last one that made no sense. The vision seemed to be in his own perspective
or perhaps he was viewing the perspective of another. It was within a building that “he” moved and went right through the walls of the building seemingly in a panic. Then there was water
a lot of it
splashes yet when he looked down he couldn’t see his hands, his feet or his body. The water just splashed without anything moving it. Then he turned around, the small purple and white little bear bunny creature was doing its best following him. It seemed to be yelling something but he couldn’t hear anything. The little guy struggled to stay above the water and panicked with its eyes wide open, arms flailing around, and his head bobbing in and out of the water.

Austin opened his eyes. He realized he had passed out on the beach floor as the visions zipped passed his mind. The last vision made him worry and he wondered whether the little guy was already drowning or whether he was about to drown. He turned towards the ocean looking closely and was shocked at what he witnessed. The water was splashing around although nothing was causing it to do so, as though some invisible person was running across the small waves. Remembering his vision, he turned to the students and said in a panic, “I just got another vision
I don’t understand what’s going on but
something’s happening in the ocean and if we don’t get there fast something’s going to drown!”

Without waiting for the others, Austin rushed towards the ocean dropping his skateboard on the ground. As soon as he got close enough to the ocean, Austin hurriedly threw his shoes off and tried to locate the portion of the ocean where the splashes were occurring and hopefully spot the drowning demon. He heard the waters splash and stir and whirled around to see the tiny bear bunny creature that was in his vision yelling, “Help!! I can’t swi—grrarrrbbgglll” Austin rushed his arms forward grabbing the little demon with his hands, but found that he wasn’t the only one holding him. He can feel soft delicate hands that are also tightly grasping the poor demon away from the waters below him, yet to his surprise he couldn’t see anyone. Unsure of the sensation he was feeling, Austin pulled the demon back towards him, causing an invisible person to fall forward onto himself.

It took a while for Austin to adjust himself from the position he fell into, keep the demon out of the water, and help the girl from her position. It seemed that upon falling, the girl had regained visibility so that Austin can see her dress, boots, and purple hair
 He nearly let the demon in his hands drop to the waters again as he stared in shock at the girl that had fallen right in front of him.

“A—Aberdeen!?!” Austin gasped. He didn’t expect to find his cousin like this. However, his initial shock went to panic when Aberdeen replied, “Who?”

Kirie

He shrugged his shoulders at Jaxon’s new nickname for him. He didn’t intervene with Jaxon’s informational speech seeing as he got just about everything right So then he does pay attention to Ms. Brumfield, Kirie couldn’t help but smile a bit as he was starting to get comfortable. That is until Tama appeared which actually caught him off guard if only just a bit, he grinned sheepishly at Tama as he answered his greetings. “Oh we’ve been good, although Raimei could have been better. She doesn’t like the ocean much let alone anything that has to do with water.”

Then in just a few sentences, Jaxon basically laid out their next plan of action and that was to get Austin to make up his mind. In all honesty Kirie wouldn’t be too surprised if the kid decided not to go along with them, to not believe a damn thing either of them had just told him. Which was fine really, knowing that Aberdeen may be in trouble didn’t necessarily mean they’d need her cousin to go along with them. He might be more of a burden then of help. Kirie watched Austin carefully trying to gauge out what was on his mind; sadly he wasn’t a mind reader.

“Well, all of this will take some
getting used to
but I need to find Aberdeen before something else happens so I’ll go with you guys. Do you even have any idea where she—“

An almost sigh of relief passed through his lips but he stopped it prematurely the moment Austin himself was cut off. Why he didn’t finish was pretty much left to question if you didn’t take in account the fact that he near about fainted after holding his head in pain. “Hey you okay Austin? Not that you look okay in the first place.” he knew better than to ask but he had asked anyway. After a minute or two had passed, Austin’s eyes opened again earning a sigh of relief from Kirie. Well at least he’s not dead. The next words that came out of Austin’s mouth did catch Kirie’s full attention as h talked about him having a vision of someone getting ready to drown.

Wow I can just hear Raimei telling me ‘I told you so” thinking this, Kirie rubbed the bridge of his nose and looked back up. A look of realization passed his face seeing as Austin was no longer standing in front of him. Rather the kid was already running towards the seaside and so Kirie ran after him but not after looked over at Jaxon. He skidded to a stop at the sight of Austin on the sandy ground holding a rather odd looking creature in his hand. “I’m guessing that’s you’re demon correct?” Kirie’s wine red eyes widened just a fraction upon noticing the girl who was right across from Austin but even more so when she said that one word that he knew would no doubt send panic through any ones heart. “Aberdeen?”

Hearing her reply to Austin, Kirie walked over and squatted in front of her. “Yeah, Aberdeen is none other than you. Seeing as you don’t even know your own name, its pretty obvious you have amnesia. Now the question to be asked is, how did you lose it?” Kirie grabbed her chin and pulled it to the side so she’d turn her head left and then right, “Well I don’t see any bumps or anything of that sort, Jaxon what do you think?” Kirie looked over his shoulder at him with a questioning look on his face.

“Well I don’t see any bumps or anything of that sort, Jaxon what do you think?”

Shrugging his shoulders Jaxon replied simply. "Hey I'm a physicist not a psychologist all that mind is greek to me man." Scratching his head slightly he looked at Austin and sighed. "Hey buddy boy got any way to job her memory? Your power deals with your mind so maybe you can get hers to start up again, stupid idea I know but I got nothing at the moment. But anyway we should probably get her to the hotel to show Brumfield who we found and tell her we got a new student ya know?" Stretching out his back Jaxon looked at the others with a smirk. "I'll see you guys there but first I'm headed back to the room." And with that said Jaxon snapped his fingers and disappeared.

Austin

”Who?” Aberdeen asked with her eyes looking at Austin in confusion.

Austin stood in shock with his eyes staring at Aberdeen in disbelief. He had finally found the one he was searching for, but she didn’t even find herself. He almost grabbed her and shook her if not for the fact that they were both holding on to what might be his demon and Kirie confirming, “Yeah, Aberdeen is none other than you. Seeing as you don’t even know your own name, its pretty obvious you have amnesia. Now the question to be asked is, how did you lose it?”

”Hey don’t touch my cousin!” Austin yelled at Kirie as he grabbed Aberdeen’s chin to inspect for any injuries. “Well I don’t see any bumps or anything of that sort, Jaxon what do you think?”

"Hey I'm a physicist not a psychologist all that mind is greek to me man," Jaxon replied. He then turned his head slightly at Austin asking whether he could possibly help Aberdeen regain her memories using his powers. Austin was nervous at the idea. He had just found out that his powers were just one of many that are used by people called Magni, people that he must now associate himself with. He wasn’t sure what he had to do and whether Aberdeen would be safe under his own power, but he had to try.

[b]“But anyway we should probably get her to the hotel to show Brumfield who we found and tell her we got a new student ya know?"


Jaxon then disappeared on the spot with a snap of his fingers, probably reappearing at the hotel that he mentioned with this “Ms. Brumfield” character. He looked at Aberdeen trying to figure out how he can help her regain her memories when the little creature suddenly shouted, “NOW I REMEMBER!!!” causing Austin to nearly drop him and stare with his eyes wide at the little guy. He tried to regain composure but still showed hesitation when asking him, “Um
what do you remember?” And why are you talking?” mumbling the last line.

“I was trying to find you Austin! I hope you’re not mad that I’ve been watching you and hiding from you and not telling you about me and—“ the little bunny like creature said excitedly.

“Wait a minute
are you the little guy that played with me when I was little? I thought
you were made up
”

“Yup! That’s me!!! But we can talk about that later! You seem to need help with your powers. I’m not entirely sure of what to do but I’ve heard of something we can try. I’m kind of a new demon.”

Austin only nodded and followed the demon’s instructions, eager to help Aberdeen. After the group moved to a secluded area so as not to attract more attention, Austin was told to hold his hands to Aberdeen’s head and to concentrate on healing her memories. As Aberdeen was regaining her memories, he could also see them flash through his mind. He found out about Aberdeen’s powers, how she could see Brooklyn, her time at the Academy, and losing her demon before she lost her memories. After all was over, he gasped at the overwhelming loss of energy from healing Aberdeen’s mind and Aberdeen fainted to the ground overwhelmed at the amount of information she was regaining. Austin carried Aberdeen and followed Kirie and the rest of the Magni that was still on the beach back to the hotel. It seemed there was another girl and a huge blob that followed the group from who knows where, though the blob looking demon seemed to shy away from Aberdeen. After resting Aberdeen in one of the unoccupied rooms, Austin went to Ms. Brumfield and explained the whole situation with the rest of the Magni. It appeared that Austin will be attending the institution. Despite his fears and worries, he wanted to discover what else his powers can do. More importantly, he needed to catch up with Aberdeen and maybe help her to finally heal from the loss of her sister. It seems that there was to be a memorial service held the next day so Austin went into one of the other open rooms and slept in, wondering whether he will wake up with all of this being a dream or with all of this becoming his reality.

Ms. Brumfield

The teacher sat down with a sigh. Laying out on her back the woman pushed a hand through her hair and groaned. She hadn't thought so much crap would happen on the first day of their field trip. "But no, the kids just had to come across Aberdeens cousin and then Aberdeen herself. Ugh I don't even know what that brats up to!" The brat being Kieron since she knew he was probably fooling around and playing pranks on the other hotel guests.

Sitting up Ms. Brumfield put on her pjs and went to bed.

Kirie

The young man simply went with the flow. After Austin had explained everything to Ms. Brumfield, Kirie went to his room and took a quick shower. Once done he sat in his bed and quickly fell asleep, not even bothering to get into a comfy position.

The next morning he woke up still tired as hell. Yawning he quickly got dressed, nudged Jaxon to see if he was up or was already gone, and headed out to eat breakfast. Walking down the halls, he noticed that Ms. Brumfield was knocking on doors trying to get some of the other students to get up. Some did while others ignored her knocking and she left in a huff of frustration. Once he got to the breakfast room, he got a bowl of cereal and sat down. Maybe someone will come by, take pity on me and try to start up a conversation.

Kirie wanted anything but to talk with other people. It showed in his face, the absolute boredom that practically screamed out at people.

Aberdeen

Aberdeen lay on the bed feeling as though there were chains constricting her movements. Her muscles were still sore from her adventure and lifting her head up only reminded her of the dizziness and pumping veins that had caused her to ignore Brumfield's knocking on the door.

"Ugghh...why do I feel so horrible Lucy?" Aberdeen asked. When there was no reply, Aberdeen quickly stood up, eyes wide open in panic. She remembered everything, including Lucy’s kidnapping and shouted in her mind in fear, “LUCY???” Ignoring the pain on her arms and legs and the dizzy sensation from her head, Aberdeen sprang up from her bed and slammed the door open. She ran across the hall trying to glance down at the bottom openings for any sight of shadows and looked behind curtains and large pieces of furniture. Aberdeen’s heart was pounding at the thought of her demon being taken away from her. Although part of her memory had returned, she still didn’t remember Lucy following her from behind. Without thinking, Aberdeen pounded on the door of one of the students until she used her powers to run through it. Whoever’s room it was, Lucy was standing over the person trying to use her haunting dream abilities to give his or her nightmares. Aberdeen couldn’t tell who it was because by the time she got to the room she had overexerted herself from ignoring her weakness and only saw blurs. The last thing she heard was {b]“Abby!”[/b] from Lucy which brought to Aberdeen a smile before she fainted. “You’re okay,” Aberdeen thought.

Austin

Unlike Aberdeen, Austin immediately woke at the knock of Ms. Brumfield and angrily stomped out of the room shouting, “What’s the big idea!?!”

Being angry and confused from yesterday’s events made him hungry so he ran to the breakfast area expecting some sausages, sunny side up eggs, orange juice, and French toast, only to find that they served either bagels or cereal and that they ran out of milk. Frustrated, Austin grabbed four plain bagels, a plastic knife, and some packets of butter and walked into the dining area. He sat next to Kirie, not paying attention to his boredom, and quickly opened the packets of butter. Grabbing the plastic knife, Austin vigorously sliced a plain bagel so hard that the plastic knife snapped.

“Arrrghhhh!! Can’t I just get something to eat I’m so f—“

“Good mooorrnniing Austin!” Bates hopped onto the table smiling.

“Agghhh!!!” Austin jumped up from his seat in shock and pointed to Bates. “You!! You’re—you actually exist!?!?”

“Why that’s a silly question to ask Austin. Of course I exist because you met me yesterday! And it’s a good thing I do because I got some buttered up bagels right here for you. Yaaayy!!!”

Bates scurried over to the other end of the table and picked up a large plate of bagels all buttered up. He wobbled from side to side trying to get to Austin, but slipped on the table cloth, dropping the plate of bagels. Austin meant to try and grab the plate of bagels or at least a bagel to save it from falling onto the table, but instead the plate of bagels floated in midair as soon as Austin reached his hand out for it. With his other hand, Austin grabbed the floating bagels, still in disbelief of him having powers and a demon.

He then sat down and turned to Kirie, brushing his shock off into a smile and casually asked, “So mind telling me what’s supposed to go down today?” while scarfing down some bagels.

Kirie

Glancing to his side, Kirie watched Austin take a seat beside him. A sour expression on his face it scrunched up when Austin vented his anger upon his butter knife breaking. Austin’s demon jumped onto the table with a cheerful demeanor making Kirie frown. The moment Austins yell of surprise left his lips, Kiego swallowed and since he wasn’t expecting him to yell Kiego choked out of shock. His face quickly turning red, Kiego began to cough after taking a couple gulps of water. “God I nearly choked. Why the hell did you yell for so early in the morning.” his normally cheerful self was tired and quite grouchy.

Placing an elbow on the table, Kirie leaned his check against the palm of his hand and continued to eat his food while watching Austin’s demon wobble about and then drop a plate of perfectly buttered bagels. However how Austin saved the day surprised Kiego. The bagels began to float in the air and Austin simply reached out and took them. His mouth slightly ajar Kirie quickly closed it and grumbled under his breathe.

“So mind telling me what’s supposed to go down today?” while scarfing down some bagels.

In the midst of taking a bite, Kirie stopped midway and placed his spoon back into the bowl. A solemn expression passed over his face as he began to think on the events that were to take place today. “Um well we have a funeral or sorts to go to. One of our classmates died not too long ago so . . .” he let his words hang in the air for a bit before going back to finishing his cereal. It’s not like I knew him personally though.

Amaya
Previous Day
Having finished her food, Amaya wondered around until Ms. Brumfield had them go back inside. Once in her room, like most of her fellow students, Amaya went straight to bed.

Next Morning

Amaya hugged her pillow tightly with a blissful expression while munching on the top corner as she dreamed about chocolate dipped banana’s. Suddenly a voice ripped through her dreams and startled her into waking up. Sitting up, Amaya had practically slept on the edge of her bed so sitting up so quickly she fell right off the edge of it. Lading with a thump, Amaya sat back up rubbing her eyes sleepily but then she became alert. “Hey that voice came from Kirie’s room I wonder if everything’s alright? Hey lets go check it out Melody.” Standing up, Amaya quickly walked out of their room and burst into Kirie’s.

What she found wasn’t really what she had expected. Oh.... uh how is everyone doing? Is there something going on that I don't know about or something?" Kirie’s roommate Jaxon was the only one in the room and he sat there blushing his face off as he started to hide under his covers. “Aw it’s just you. I thought maybe Kirie finally went crazy but it’s just you.” With a sigh of what seemed to be defeat, Amaya turned around and began to walk downstairs for breakfast. Going down the stairs she had passed by a mirror and caught her reflection in it. “Gah, my hair’s a mess.” she grumbled pulling her hands through her long hair. After a while of little improvement, Amaya gave up and entered the breakfast room. Once there she piled her plate high with all sorts of goods with a sleepy expression on her face. Glancing around the room she saw a familiar white head and quickly shuffled over to her old frenemy and sat herself down. “Good morning Kirie. Did you hear Jaxon yell just know?” Kirie looked up with a scowl and said no.

Kirie & Amaya

It didn’t take them long to finish their breakfast, after Amaya and Austin talked a little bit the three threw their trash away and headed outside for the service. Kirie stuffed his hands in his pockets still in his morning gloom while Amaya walked beside Austin a smile on her face. Glancing at her the white-haired boy wondered what was going through his childhood friends mind considering where they were going and why. “Amaya you do realize you’re going to a memorial service right? Not to the carnival.” he said dryly. The red-head simply frowned at him but did take heed of his word by letting her smile drop to a slight curl of her lips, so that it wasn’t too obvious she was smiling.

Once they reached the sandy beach, the first thing the both of them noticed was the set up or rather the lack of it seemed. All the chairs were gone and Kirie somewhat understood the reasoning behind it but then again he hadn’t known Connor very much. Actually he didn’t know much about any of his classmates, I should probably work on that. As they got closer to the two on the beach the gloomy look on his face exchanged itself for something of a smile. “Good morning Kieran! Oh Melody this is where you went.” Rolling his eyes at Amaya, the girl wore that smile of hers once again. “Has Jaxon or Aberdeen come by yet?” he asked the two, running a hand through his hair.

Austin

Austin stayed silent during his meal, partly because he was rather very hungry and partly because he was thinking about what Kirie had mentioned.

They’re having a memorial service
one of their classmates
died? That must have been horrible...

After finishing up and chatting with Amaya, he followed the two to the beach catching them making weird faces at each other. He shrugged and kept on walking until they had met up with a few more of Aberdeen’s classmates. These two were new faces to Austin, so he felt he needed to introduce himself.

“Hey, I’m Austin. So I’m guessing your Kieran and Melody.”

Austin didn’t know what else to say. Usually he would find the nearest person and try to strike a long conversation with them, but it didn’t seem appropriate now. However, he didn’t want to stay silent and confused for the whole time and he gathered the courage to get some information.

“So, can anyone fill me in on this school and what’s been going on? Newbie here.”

Aberdeen

After a few minutes, Aberdeen woke up with everything starting to come into focus.

“Oww
my head is still ringing inside
”

She turned to see Jaxon and Lucy, smiling at first at the sight of her demon, but then quickling frowning at the fact that she was on the floor with Jaxon still in his pajamas.

“Uh
sorry for crashing on your floor..whatever
”

She glared at Lucy who was smiling behind her mask from a good day’s work of causing nightmares.

”LUCY what the hell did you just do to Jaxon??”

”Jaxon
nightmare..fun
.”

Aberdeen’s eyes opened wide. She hoped Lucy didn’t psychologically damage Jaxon for life. She was used to the nightmares that Lucy occasionally tested her with but she wasn’t sure how Jaxon would take them. Slowly she got up and turned towards the door, blushing red out of embarrassment as she apologized with her head turned away from Jaxon, “And sorry for the nightmares that Lucy caused
 I guess I’ll see you around
”

Aberdeen got ready and headed down to breakfast, only to find that everyone seemed to have left. She wasn’t sure what was going on today and didn’t want to get lost trying to find them like last time.

“I hope Jaxon’s still up there
” Aberdeen thought, going back up the stairs to Jaxon’s room.

When she got to the door, Aberdeen paused, hating the fact that she had to go back and face him after yelling, dropping on the floor, and having Lucy mess Jaxon’s brains out. However, she needed help finding the others and she had been out of it for the last couple of days, so she took a deep breath and knocked on the door.

“Jaxon, you there? I sure hope I’m not all alone here” Aberdeen said mumbling the last part.

Oh great...

The two lovebirds were abruptly joined by a couple of their classmates, to which Melody only offered a disinterested glance followed by a slow “hi”. A single brow arched up at the mention of Amaya's “Oh! Here you are!” that sounded as if they had been the best buddies since day one.

Yeah, no. The girl silently groaned as she couldn't help but think that Amaya was about to leap for a hug and drag her for some silly talk.

“Actually, Kie-” Nevermind... They weren't going to go now, were they? Just because they decided to come early...

As Kieran felt it was his duty to stay and entertain the group with some small talk, Melody remained silent, only nodding at the introduction of this Austin guy that she only now noticed. She wasn't too keen on getting acquainted with the new kid, so she just pretended to listen to whatever they all had to say while subtly prodding Kieran with her elbow to give off the hint that she wanted to eat. Now.

Kirie & Amaya

You guys are here rather early, any particular reason? Kirie tilted his head to the side contemplating the question. Although he knew when the memorial service was going to start, he still came pretty early. "No, no particular reason. It beats waiting in our rooms or having Ms. Brumfield talk to us" he said in a joking manner. Despite having been classmates for such a long time, Kirie still wasn't exactly on friendly terms with most of them, aside from Jaxon and Amaya. Rubbing the back of his head, Kirie sat in the sand across from the two lovebirds. Amaya on the other hand sat closer to the two of them. She patted the sand next to smiling up at Aistin, "you can sit here."


Kirie glanced over at Melody, who he noticed was poking Kieran repeatedly. Frowniong slightly, Kirie looked away and turned his attention to Austin whose question had been left unanswered. "Well um we're apparently a school that helps newbies, such as yourself, get used to their powers etc." motioning with his hand as he spoke. Suddenly Amaya spoke up, "Um I know it's not my place to ask this but um could you tell me what happened to Conner. Kirie explained some of it to me but he isn't good at explaining these kind of things." Kirie looked away, glancing over at Kieran to see his reaction.

Austin
Austin answered Amaya’s motion in the sand with a raised eyebrow followed by a shrug. "At least one girl is still in a good mood” he thought. He sat next to Amaya and dug his hands into the sand, scooping some and letting it fall through the gaps between his fingers. Although he looked away from Kirie, he listened to his explanation of a school for newbie freaks such as him.

”Great, just great. I search for Aberdeen, find out I got some powers and a little bunny
thing, and now I’m with a group of schoolmates” Austin thought, annoyed at the way matters have accumulated.

Austin kept his thoughts quiet, however, because he wanted to pay respects to whoever passed away. His mind went through memories of his cousin Brooklyn’s funeral: the cold silence with the exception of those who couldn’t hold their tears, Aberdeen’s empty expression, and the white casket that contained the body of the deceased. He hoped that whoever was close to the student was or at least will be alright. It was one of his regrets that he didn’t try to help Aberdeen when she became depressed, opting instead to ignore the problem in hope that she would forget. Now that he finally saw her and she remembered, he wanted to talk to her. He was worried the memorial service might bring back memories of Brook
and memories of Grandma Alma.

Aberdeen
Jaxon handed Aberdeen one of the two apples that he teleported into his hands. Aberdeen followed right behind him, staring at the apple’s shiny skin. The words “funeral,” “monster,” and “city” rang in Aberdeen’s head as reminders of what she had failed to accomplish during her amnesia. “Grandma
I’m sorry Aberdeen muttered. Still angry over what had happened, Aberdeen bit into the apple hard, hurting her gums a bit from the force. She winced before chewing the fragments of the apple and swallowed hard. Aberdeen continued this, pondering and biting the apple as if it was her enemy, whilst following Jaxon wherever he was headed. Although he said to go with the others, it was the last thing Aberdeen wanted to do. She’d rather deal with one person than deal with five. “You can just ignore me, I’ll make it easier for you to” Aberdeen said to Jaxon, turning invisible. ”I just don’t want to face the others. I don’t care what you’re up to but I’d rather be here than another funeral.”

Amaya & Kirie

The reaction on Kieran’s face said it all. Bring a hand up to his face, Kirie sighed and looked way not wanting to see what would happen next. Amaya’s reaction to his lasting words before he went off for food, made Kirie feel bad but not as bad as how the red head was feeling. Stiffening the moment his tone got cold, Amaya bite her lip and did her best to look him in the eye. At the end of his story Amaya wanted to cry, she knew how terrible it was to lose a family member, so she didn’t appreciate that Kieran directed his anger towards her. Tightening her fists, Amaya looked at the ground as she too began to remember how it felt when her brother died. He had meant the world to her and because a certain someone couldn’t keep a promise, he died.

Feeling a glare coming his direction, Kirie risked the chance at looking in Amaya’s direction and the glare sent a chill down his spine. Crap she remembered. shifting a bit so to add a little distance between the two of them. If he knew one thing, Amaya getting upset was never a good thing. Thankfully Kieran didn’t return until twenty minutes later, and hopefully Amaya calmed down. “You’re not the only one you ass.” Amaya grumbled to herself however it was loud enough for maybe Kieran to pick up. Kirie was close enough to hear and he sighed, “Amaya please, don’t start, just calm down-“ he paused when she looked in his direction. Turning to Austin, he said quietly, “Uh you may want to scoot back a bit. My idiot friend here knows fire magic.” Motioning for him to scoot back a bit, Kirie made one last attempt to calm Amaya down but it seemed it just wasn’t going to work.

Already the air was getting hot and a fire blazed in her eyes. Gritting her teeth she glared at Kieran, it had been a while since she got upset but it seemed today was the day her cheery self would crumble. “I’m sorry I made you remember Kieran but don’t go acting like you’re the only one who lost someone. And don’t go playing me as the bad guy here; I lost my brother too, no I lost my entire family. Would you like to know the cause of my grief, the reason I’m reminded every day?” At this point, Amaya was too angry to care whether anyone wanted to know her life story or not but Kieran’s words rubbed her the wrong way. Realizing where she was going with this, Kirie was getting ready to stand back up, “Amaya please just stop, there’s no need to tell them anything.” “Shut up Kirie, he doesn’t have the right to be only one to be pissed off. You’re the reason I’m even telling them any of this because you couldn’t keep your promise.” A pained look crossed his face, the first time he had ever actually dropped that friendly mask of his. “I guess I am, well then I best get out of your sight then.” Standing up, he began to walk away but paused to look at Kiran, “She may be an idiot, but she’s right though if just a little bit.” Shoving his hands in his pockets Kirie left the small group.

It was then that a certain woman decided to make an appearance. “Well shall we get this all started up. . .?” Ms. Brumfield trailed off realizing the tension in the air. Folding her arms, she looked at each and every one of their faces and frowned. “Am I to assume no one is in the mood to remember Connors good deeds, or are you guys just going to sit there and mope?” The older woman did her best to use the right words but for all she knew she may have just made matters worse. Amaya on the other hand thought otherwise. “Why don’t we continue since I obviously don’t know my place.” looking at Kieran, then in the direction of where Kirie had run off to. Amaya couldn’t help but regret saying what she said. Sighing she looked away, “You don’t have to forgive me, hate me all you want Kieran but I am sorry” Standing up, Amaya headed over towards where Ms. Brumfield stood and waited for the service to start.

Sure, leave me with them... I'll be fine. Melody thought sarcastically, watching Kieran trail off after having to explain Connor's heroic deed yet again. Perhaps it was foolish of him to direct his anger at Amaya, especially since she didn't necessarily ask anything bad – Well, not deliberately, anyway.

After at least twenty minutes of awkward staring and moping, Melody was glad to see Kieran return with something to eat. Great timing too, since she was about to fall down from hunger. “Thanks.” She muttered, turning back to their 'guests' just in time to see Amaya flip. Couldn't blame her.

Still...

“He just answered your question...” Melody stood in front of Kieran, a hand pressed against his chest as if to shield him from something. “So don't blame Kieran for venting a little grief, okay? It wasn't personal.”

She turned to Kieran, her hand now grabbing his. “Let's go. You don't need this, and you've got a service to run.” Without waiting for his consent, Melody dragged Kieran away from the group. “Don't you think you were a little harsh? She didn't mean it like that, you know.”

Kirie


The white hair youngster wasn’t gone for very long. The need to be with the rest of his class and to not dismiss orders ate at him so Kirie went back to where the service was being held. He stood there with the rest of his classmates not saying a word until the end of the service. Heading over to Kieran the lighting magni was well aware that Kieran didn’t quite like him or his girlfriend for that matter. Stepping up to him, Kirie placed a hand on his classmates shoulder and bowed his dipped his head. “I truly am sorry about your brother Kieran. He was and still is a good person even if he isn’t here.” Giving the other boy a sad smile Kirie knew of Kierans pain or at least how to deal with it when it was vented towards you.

Letting his hand slide from his shoulder Kirie walked off glancing in the direction of his childhood friend. She was the reason he was so used to that sort of stuff. It was his fault her brother was dead but quite a bit of time had passed since then. Shaking his head, he knew it’d be pointless to try and change Amaya’s way of thought concerning him and her brothers circumstances. If anything Kirie would pay anything to switch places with him if it meant Amaya would truly be happy. Idiot there’s no use in thinking that. she’d be sad all the same regardless of which one of us died. A look of guilt passed his usually bright face before it disappeared and he went back to the inn.



Some Time Later


The group left the beach a day after the service. They were able to do some of the activities they had planned for that week however some of their classmates were missing. Ms. Brumfield was a bit worried but since it was Jaxon they were talking about she gave up on trying to figure out where he went. Most likely he had gone back to the Academy so most didn’t give it a second thought further. Kirie was a bit lonely knowing his roommate wasn’t with him but then again they hadn’t had a good enough conversation to say that they were close friends.

Staring out the window as their bus lumbered along back to the Academy with a look that said he wasn’t quite there. Everyone sat where they did when they were going to the beach. Realizing that not much had changed in terms of everyone’s relationship with one another Kirie smiled to himself wondering if Melody would ever consider him a friend or if Amaya would forgive him for the past. Pulling away from the window his eyes scanned the row of seats in front of him. He had chosen to sit in the second to last row in the far back to get a clear view of everyone.

It wasn’t that he was shy or anything but rather with how the whole beach incursion went Kirie wasn’t really motivated to interact with everyone as he attempted to since the start of school. Thinking further on this it soon became apparent that the school year would soon be drawing into summer meaning they’d be leaving for summer break before coming back for a new school year. The way the school years worked at Liuena were still odd to him. Looking down at his hands Kirie began reminiscence about all that had happen so far this year. There was that trip to the Human City where they not only gained a new student but lost an old one. Briefly looking for Kieran he still wondered how his classmate was feeling about it all. After the incident in the city there was that crazy weird accident when they were playing capture the flag. Then there was just the time spent in class and doing other class projects to help them with their magic. At their little field trip they met Aberdeen but now when he thought about it he hadn’t seen her since she went to find Ms. Brumfield. On the other hand they did come across Austin her cousin who was closer to the front of the bus where Ms. Brumfield could talk to him about the Academy.

Finally looking up from his hands Kirie was startled upon seeing a pair of glowing eyes staring right at him. Jumping slightly in his seat he calmed down enough to realize it was just his demon Raimei. Chuckling to himself his eyes followed his companion as she drifted between the seats towards the front of the bus and then back to where he sat. “You know you’re not supposed to be out?” His demon merely glanced about nervously as she usually did however this time it seemed a bit different. Sitting up straighter in his seat Kirie regarded his demon seriously this time. Is something wrong? She merely reached out towards him with a look of fright clearly shown in her orbs of compact lightning. Something isn’t right at the Academy.

A bit confused by her thoughts Kirie glanced around the bus wondering if any of the other demons would pick up on Raimei’s thoughts. Then again she was the only one who wasn’t hidden at the moment. “What do you mean? Did something happen?” whispering quietly to her Kirie leaned forwards towards his demon. She glanced about again wringing her hands as sparks shot off her in small little bursts. I’m not really sure but there’s just something very off about Liuena. Kirie titled his head to the side a bit still a bit confused. Reaching out towards her Kirie wanted to comfort her however it’d be impossible to touch her without dying on the spot. “I’m sure it’s nothing Raimei. Now go before Ms. Brumfield actually notices you’re here.” making a shooing motion with his hand Raimei sighed and faded into nothingness.





A Few Months Later


The sun’s heat wafted through the open windows of the classroom. A woman stood at the front of the classroom a look of triumph on her face as she regarded her class. Most of the classes occupants sat on the edge of their seats waiting for the bell to ring signaling the end of the semester and the start of summer. A young man sat close to the window seemingly oblivious to the fact that today was the last day he’d be in this classroom for a few months. Finally the bell rang and most everybody jumped up to get the heck out of the stuffy classroom.

Ms. Brumfield stepped aside just in time to get out of her students way. She called out to a specific few who had caught her attention since the beginning of the semester. They showed the most promise but they also gave her the most trouble not that she minded now since she wouldn’t have to deal with them for a good few months. Noticing Kirie was still sitting by the window she walked over to him tapping him on the shoulder. The action broke him from his careful thoughts and he glanced up at her, wine colored orbs glazed over in thought. “ Kirie it’s time for you to go.” Giving him a soft smile she patted his shoulder as she went over to her desk to gather her things. Waiting for Kirie to get his own things ready the pair left the room together but they soon went their separate ways.

Kirie went straight to his dorm room to gather his things. Knocking on the door in case Jaxon was inside he already knew that it was pointless since Jaxon disappeared during the beach incursion along with Aberdeen. The Academy was still looking into it but they were falling across a bunch of dead ends. Gathering all his clothes into a single suitcase the room was just about empty on his side, even Jaxon’s side of the room had been cleared away most of it had been sent to his family in case he came back. Staring at the room for a good solid minute Kirie sighed and closed the door and headed off towards the shuttle.

Upon arriving there he saw some of his classmates, most of whom he said his good byes to, before standing to the side awaiting the bus to take them home. Turning back around to look at the Academy despite this being a yearly routine for him for the past two years somehow this semester seemed a lot different now that it was ending. Just like his demon had told him when they were coming back from the beach there was still something off about the Academy. Shaking his head Kirie climbed a nearby tree so he was no longer in the sun. Looking down from his lofty position the white hair individual smiled to himself as those wine orbs caught sight of a bus heading towards them.

“Looks like we get to go home huh Raimei?” A single spark from seemingly nothing was the only reply he got.




THE END
Until the next chapter begins in the coming future.
