Description

Tanya Altukhov

Image

Age
10

Appearance
Tanya is a slight girl with long black hair and dark blue eyes. Her face is round and innocent with a smattering of freckles on the bridge of her nose and cheeks. She is pale to a point where she often has to stay inside to avoid being burned by the sun. Her hair is always up in two pony-tails or covering her face to hide her from the world.

Height
4'6

Weight
87 lbs

Nationality
Russian

Languages Spoken
Russian and heavily accented English

Occupation
Student

Sexual preference
She's 10. She doesn't know.

Powers
Projection: Tanya can make one or more people feel whatever emotion she's feeling. She can also make people see "visions" that are akin to VERY strong memories. While being effected by them, the victim can still see and hear what's going on around them, they simply have a scene (and the emotions accociated with this scene) playing out in their head that they can't get rid of. If Tanya has a strong emotional connection with someone, the person whom she's connected to can be effected even if they aren't around her, except they are practically inside of her mind; able to see, hear, and feel exactly what she is experiencing. Due to the fact that these powers are completely emotional, and she's 10, she has no control at all over these powers.

Personality
When first meeting Tanya, she seems fairly normal. She's caring, understanding, and rather innocent in most aspects. She loves people, enjoys having fun, and as she has trouble accessing positive emotions, she'll often share the most lighthearted fantasies with anyone who'll listen. She's very prone to fits of negative emotions and when left alone, she can't be trusted not to break obects, walls, and at times herself. She feels responsible for other's emotions, and for a very good reason. And so if anyone is upset, she'll often become upset as well.

History
Tanya was born in northern Russia and lived there for seven years. She doesnt really remember much from that time. She does remember being removed from her parent's custody and being adopted by the Smiths. Since then, she's suffered from no memory loss at all, recalling the past three years in vivid and colorful detail. At first, her family was unaware of her powers, thinking that maybe a little girl's sadness and fear was simply contagious in nature. Well, that's until the visions started. Now they've enrolled her in Greenfield, hoping that maybe they'll be able to help her get better at controlling this.

They were getting rid of her. The thought passes through her mind over and over again, like a record on a loop. They didn't love her anymore and so were getting rid of her. By this point a heavy fog had settled over her whole body, causing no feelings but a blank, calm bliss.

"Goddamnit Anna, I can't drive like this!" Reality was slowly coming back to her and the first thing that Tanya was able to hear was her dad yelling at her mom. Except instead of sounding mad, he sounded devastated... almost like he was crying and her dad never cried. The fog lifted a little and she was able to feel her mom's hand on her back. The fog lifted more and Tanya wondered when her mom had gotten back here. Before she'd been in the front.

Her mom took a deep, shaky breath. "It's over now Robert. Please don't yell. Please." Tanya looked up at her caretaker. The woman was in her mid twenties but looked so much older. Now she looked at least forty, as her eyes were rimmed with red and she looked as if she had never slept... ever. The man driving had the same haggard look about him, and Tanya knew with startling apathy that it was her fault. The apathy went away as quickly as the memories came back. The past two hours had flown by for her, as the fog had made her go into a dissociative phase. However, that fog meant she'd been using her powers. And now she saw that she'd hurt her mom and dad. While she'd been safe and comfy under her fog, they had been devastated; not because they were sending their only daughter away, but because she'd forced them to be sad. The fog started to come back.

"No." Her mom, whose eyes were free of tears now, gripped her shoulder painfully, pushing the fog away, and looked right into Tanya's eyes. "It's not your fault. It's really not. Your dad and I love you and you don't have to feel bad that we're taking your sadness away. We're happy to-"Robert made a small sound of disagreement from the front seat. "Okay, we're not happy to, but we're not mad at you. Remember tykva, we'll see each other in just a few months."

They pulled up at the school and a heavy feeling of apprehension settled over Tanya. She gripped her mom's hand tightly as they left the car. "Momma, I am very very scared," she whimpered, "What if ze bad thing happens?"

Her dad let the car and picked her up as one would pick up a very young child. "Then you go to an adult," he said, lovingly, yet with as much seriousness as he could. "And you explain why it happened."

The family walked up to the school, her mom and dad carrying her luggage to her new room; Room 300. "Who is in ze ozer 300 rooms?" She asked innocently, getting nothing but a small snicker from the man at the desk.

Once her things were unpacked, with the help of her parents, Tanya felt the fog coming back. And so she intentionally dug her nails into her palm. The pain chased away the fog and left her completely susceptible to her own emotions. "I vant to miss you, yes?" she asked, her stomach hurting as she tried her best not to cry. Her mom assured her that it was okay to miss them, and though that was generally a parent's cue not to leave, the couple had no choice. And so she was left in her new room with no one to give her sadness to. She tried chasing it away, hitting the walls hard enough to leave dents, and breaking a lamp that she found on the bedside table, but when that didn't work, she simply laid on her new bed and cried herself to sleep, both glad and upset that there was no one around to give the pain to.

"There's a flying person up there..." Sora thought while looking at Ryan in the clouds. "Sooo... this is the school... and the dorms are... Probably nearby?" She could feel something on her leg. After looking down, she saw a squirrel on her foot. "Aww! You're so cute!" The girl scratched the squirrel behind the ears and put it away from her leg. She barely made a few more steps, until she could feel that both of her legs had squirrels. "Sorry, but I don't know if I'm allowed to have pets..." She told them.

Before she could make another step, Sora was covered and surrounded by squirrels. "Ok, squirrels..." Sora muttered. "I get it... you like my legs... and arms... Now please, I have no time for this!" Sora might have the ability to communicate with animals, but it seemed like they weren't listening to her. Soon enough the girl was covered not only in squirrels, but also rabbits, bugs and other little animals. They were so many, Sora ended up on the floor. "Go away! Go away, animals!"
"You're hopeless..." Sora could hear Togame's voice nearby. "Togame! Please! Help me!" Sora screamed for help. She was also afraid she would accidentally hurt the animals while trying to get rid of them. "Nope." Togame calmly replied while walking away.

Togame finally came to room 300 and entered. Barely paying attention to the broken lamp and wall, she took a look at Tanya. "Great... Now I'll be roomed with a baby hamster..." She muttered instead of greeting or introducing to the little girl.

Sora's hair looked like a tornado. Her clothes were slightly ruffled. "Finally! The rooms! Room 302, here I come!" The girl quickly entered in a room. She could feel slight chill, then she noticed Chris, who was unpacking. Well that was weird - she thought that the roommates had to be the same gender. "Excuse me... Are you Eclipse O'Connor?... Is this room 302?" Sora opened the door, went out, looked at the room number and felt a massive amount of blood rushing trough her face when she realized she entered in room 303. "Never mind, bye!" She quickly closed the door.

"This is the right room. 302." Sora entered. "Hi...." She greeted Eclipse. "My name is Sora Markovska... N-nice to meet you..."

Tanya looked up at her new roomate, having just been woken up by the sound of the door oppening. Luckily she was a light sleeper, and so she didn't miss the possibility of making a new friend, or at least what she thought could be a freind. Baby hamster... that must be a silly english term. But hamsters were cute and fluffy and baby hamsters were... well, they were actually kind of ugly, but most people didn't know that

And so she looked up at her new roomate and smiled brightly, "Thank you" she said happily, "I am Tanya. You are Togame, no?" Due to her thick accent, she pronounced Togame's name Toogami. Despite her priviously terrible mood, Tanya literally emanated curiosity and happiness, emotions that she unintentionally pushed onto the other girl. However, instead of a heavy push, it was simply an undertone, something that she could refuse easily.

"What are you thanking for?" Togame asked. "You're a weird kid..." However, for a strange reason, Togame felt interested in the little girl. She has never felt like that when it came to meeting new people "Yep. It's pronounced To-ga-me. Your accent is weird, are you Slavic?" Togame wouldn't normally start asking questions, because she would be too busy minding her own busyness. However, this kid took her curiosity, but only for a while. Probably she wouldn't even listen if Tanya replied.

"You must be Eclipse..." Sora was talking to the blonde girl. "I'm here for the first time and I'm a little nervous... Are you here for the first time too?" Suddenly a blissful sound of guitar caressed Sora's ears. "Is... Is that... Three Days Grace?" Sora's pulse started speeding up, until she became hysterical. "Oh my God! Someone is playing a song of Three Days Grace! Someone is actually playing guitar here! A neighbor! Our neighbor can play a song of Three days grace!" Sora took Eclipse's arms and started jumping in joy. "How awesome is that? Wait..." The girl suddenly stopped. "Isn't it coming from room..." She suddenly gasped. "Oh my god! I just mistook my room with the room of the guitar player! Aaah!" Sora hit her forehead with her palm. "This is just embarrassing... And I just went hysterical in front of you, isn't that a great introduction... I wonder what his name is..."

Chris overheard the two girls next door go crazy over his guitar playing. He laughed to himself, he wasn't the only one who could play. Still playing, he tried to think of who else played guitar here. "Oh, yea, it was Ryan. He was pretty good at it, too." He stopped playing guitar and tried to think of a song he could sing to. "Hmm, nope, no. Ah, there is that one," he thought as he moved his hands to their appropriate frets, and began to play again. It was another Three Days Grace song, but this time it was Never Too Late. He waited for his cue,

"This world will never be,
what I expected.
And if there's something wrong,
who would have guessed it?
I will not leave alone,
everything that I own,
to make you feel like
it's not too late.
It's never too late..."

Ah, the first day of a new school year, I remember it like it was yesterday. I woke up, yawned, stretched, and then rolled out of bed.
In retrospect, it may have been a good idea to not take top bunk when we were calling dibs in the room.
One pile of sheets on the floor later, I was up and ready to go, having dressed the night before in my trademark dark jeans, black socks, and black shirt. Throwing on my (also trademark)black trenchcoat(Thin enough material to flap dramatically in the breeze, just like I like it, and let me tell you, it is HELL trying to find material that perfect.), I walked out the door, sending a tentacle of my aura over to my desk to grab my key to the room before the door closed.
Allow me to explain my power a bit, just in case you weren't paying attention before. I can create something called an "aura", and as long as I have the mental stamina and an idea as to how to do something, I can make almost limitless possibilities. For example, if I wanted to cover a lot of ground and had a tree nearby, I could make a tentacle of aura wrap around a branch, harden my trenchcoat into wings(hence why I like it thin), and basically make myself into one of those little glider toys I used to play with when I was a kid. Of course, like anything, this takes up energy, quite directly from my mind, at that. If I have too much going on or I break my aura(which is rather difficult, at least for those who try), it takes a LOT to keep it up, at least until I lessen my load or the damage repairs, at which point it takes very little toll. But now I'm just digressing. Flash forward a while, and I was finally walking through the halls of the dorms, before I remembered to grab my backpack from the room. Two flights up. This... was NOT my day. Throwing a whip of aura up the stairwell, I pulled myself up the stairs and swung over the rail, landing on my floor and dusting myself off.
As I was about to enter my room again, I heard what appeared to be Three Days Grace. Disgusted, I focused my aura into my hands and formed a bow, then the fiddle it went to(What were YOU thinking?). Tapping the strings to make sure they were tuned(just because I made the thing doesn't mean I made it perfect), I began playing a song I had fallen in love with a few years back. So that I could make sure I wasn't seen by anyone else, I stayed hidden by the stairwell, the light pulsing purple of my aura and pale grey hair(it's hereditary, shut up) the only indicator the someone was there. As I got into the song, I made a drum and a few other instruments behind me with an extension of the bow's aura. Because I didn't know how to play any of them, I just made the parts that needed to vibrate resonate with their parts in the song, thus giving the same result as the area I was in amplified all my sound.
"I won't blame the hurting on you, you left in the sweetest way...
I won't say that it's you, making me feel this way.
It's the heart, and the soul, and the body, and the brain driving me insane,
but the wind, and the land, and the fire, and the rain always stay the same...

Ai, ai, ai
Wanna roll with the wind, bringing distance to everything
Ai, ai, ai, whoa

Ai, ai, ai
Wanna sit by the fire and glance at the pouring rain
Ai, ai, ai, ai, ai, ai..."
As I leaned against the wall in the alcove, continuing the song, the stress of playing several instruments at once began to give me a headache, but to piss off the guy playing TDG, it was worth it. He was lucky I didn't launch into one of my Irish songs. Maybe later at a party.
(Link to the song for those who haven't heard it. And shame on you for taking this long to get to it. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cxiDmCr3h7Q)

Slavic... Tanya cocked her head to the side ever so slightly. She didn'ty think she was slavic. She was Russian though. And being ten, and ignorant of anyher own history in Russia, she was unaware that they meant the same thing. "I do not zink so... I am from Russia zough. Well, my momma says I am from Russia. I do not remember it zough. Are you Slavic? And what does Slavic mean?" Her accent was still there, but she tried to repress it in an attempt to impress her new roomate just a little bit. She sat on the edge of her bed, looking up at the slightly older girl with innocence and a sort of admiration.

Without even waiting for an answer, she continued on her rant. "And zank you for ze right way to speak your name. I am sorry I did it wrong Togame. It is a pretty name. You-" She stopped suddenly, looking down at the broken lamp. "I didn't do zat by ze way," she lied quickly, not wanting Togame to be mad at her.

Telepathy - the ability to communicate with others via thoughts. There were living creatures who had this power. That included the Dark Lord, who was trying to communicate with...
"Dark..." The telepathy conversation started. "I want you to know about the students and the staff here as much as you can. I want you to know their desires, their fears, their strengths and weaknesses... I want you to pretend to be a student... and befriend them... Make them like you, trust you, and tell you their secrets... so we can use them in our advantage...

Sora went silent when Eclipse's wings wrapped around both of them. "N-no worries..." She muttered, still in surprise. "Do you want to go outside and greet the neighbors?" It wasn't only because she wanted to see who could play music instruments. She wanted to befriend many people, or at least those at the same floor.

"Mhm... Russia..." Togame only responded. "And I have no idea what you didn't do... If you didn't make a huge hole in the floor, that's fine..."

"Eclipse, I'm going to get my schedule, because if I don't get it now, I'll forget about it. I'll be right back!" Sora smiled at Eclipse and walked out. In the hallway she found a whole group of guys and she gasped, because she couldn't help, but notice there was a... "Cute kitten!" Sora squealed. She started petting the kitten, as it calmed down and started purring in Cyrus' arms.
Happily, Sora continued her way.

"I'm bored, I'm going outside." Togame thought. She simply walked out of the room, without telling anything else to Tanya. Will the little Russian girl follow her roommate? Togame hoped she wouldn't, but who knows...

"This guy over there looks familiar..." Sora was thinking, after she noticed Chris, who wasn't far away. "Wait! Isn't that..." Sora was about to finish her thoughts, when she suddenly tripped and fell forwards. She got used to that, since she trips and falls often. Some wounds on her knees weren't fully healed yet.

A black and gauzy ribbon-like line was swooping around the hallway walls. It was growing and disappearing at the same time. Suddenly, the whole floor got pitch black. The blackness shattered in pieces, which violently started moving around the hallway, to the stairs and most likely - to the other floors.

Each of the pieces invaded the mind of every single living creature in the dorm building. It attacked their five senses, sped up the pulse and breathing of most of them, and started fighting with their psyche. Some could barely feel it, although they were affected enough to notice it.

"What was that?" Togame thought.

Others almost got a mental breakdown, as both their organs and mind state were struggling with darkness.

Sora collapsed on her knees, holding her head, screaming for help. Her thoughts were rushing and fighting, her heart was pounding. She went silent and started breathing heavily.

It affected each of them differently. However, everyone now knew something was wrong.
