Celestian

Several teenagers with strange abilities are sent to the most prestigious school in 2019 America. What secrets does the seemingly normal school hide? {ACCEPTING}

3,739 readers have visited Celestian since Felilla created it.

Introduction

Image


Dear Reader,

Admit it, you have always felt different. Unusual. Out of place. There's no use trying to hide it anymore, because I know. I know everything about you. Where you've been. Where you are at this moment. I even know where you are going.

You don't believe me. You think I am crazy. You believe I am nothing more than a person seeking attention. It is far from that. You are one of them; one of the few chosen people that have been blessed with extraordinary abilities. It is time for you to awaken... Now!




Image

You received this letter, and like the normal person you were, became skeptical. Maybe it was a prank by one of your friends or some weirdo trying to freak you out. Whatever it was, you know it's not real. It's just some joke. Isn't it?

However, when you wake up the next morning, something feels different. Something is different. At first you can't figure it out until you get out of bed. The letter you had thrown away is sitting on your desk. You pick it up to see why it was there. Along with the previous message is a new one:

Welcome back. Believe me now? If not, why don't you just try to get rid of this letter? Go on, think about this letter vanishing.

Your curiosity gets the better of you and you imagine the letter disappearing. The next thing you know, you are waking up on your floor, a woman looming over you. "Hello," she greets. "Welcome to Havengade Heights."

You've heard that name before. It is the most prestigious school in America, and it is nearly impossible to get into. When you sit up, you find yourself back in your room, all of your belongings packed up in suitcases. Someone calls up to you, "Hurry or you'll miss your flight!"

Slowly, you look at your desk and find a pamphlet instead of the letter on your desk. The top of it reads: Havengade Heights: Academy for the Gifted and Home to the Celestian Program

The bottom of the pamphlet has three words, clearly printed in black ink. Believe me now?



Image

Image
Our story begins on the day you arrive at Havengade Heights.

The letter was right. You do have strange powers. You have for many years. However, you have no way to explain them. Now, you might have a chance to get some explanations.

Congratulations, you have have been accepted to Havengade Heights, the most prestigious and secretive school in America, and quite possibly the world. Along with this, you have been accepted into the Celestian Program, a international program for only the most amazing people in the world. Below the surface, the Celestian Program is actually used for training the world's first superhumans. You are one of these superhumans, injected with a serum as a baby that would give you unnatural abilities.

Here at Havengade, you will learn to hone those abilities and will be treated like royalty by the world's societies. However, there is a catch, one that you couldn't escape because the moment you broke the seal on that letter, you unknowingly signed a contract. You are forever doomed to obey Havengade's every command that is issued to you, no matter how horrifying. In return, they let you live and give you almost anything you could ask for. Simple, right?

Rowan clasped the pamphlet in her hand tightly as she looked up at the gates of the large school. Havengade Heights, the most prestigious school in the country, and quite possibly the world. She knew very little about the school itself. Little whisperings here and there, a few quick news reports. The school acted on its own, not claimed by any one country. That made it more versatile to the world, able to teach things that some countries would frown upon and not following anyone one standard. Maybe that was what made it so well-off.

It was a bit hard for Rowan to believe that along with being accepted into the school, she was also accepted into the exclusive Celestian program. She had seen members of the program on TV, being welcomed by the world leaders to dine or attend parties with them. The Celestians were considered royalty to the world, the leaders of tomorrow. The pure pressure f something like that weighted down Rowan's chest. So, for a few minutes, she simply stared up at the school.

After the shock started to wear out, she pushed the button on the speaker next to the gate. "Name?" a crackly voice questioned over the speaker.

"Rowan Anderson..." she answered quietly.

There was a beep and the gates swung open. Rowan stared at it before stepping onto the school grounds. The gates slammed closed behind her and she jumped before moving forward. The Headmistress (Rowan recognized her from the picture in the pamphlet) smiled at her. "Welcome to Havengade Heights. I hope you enjoy your stay. Now, the others should be here soon if you don't mind waiting."

Rowan shook her head, turning to the plants decorating the porch instead. As her fingers ran over the leaves and flowers, the grew fuller and bloomed more as if trying to impress her. She smiled as they whispered to each other. Maybe this place would be nice.

Alyss sat on the ledge of one of the schools high towers, she sat there legs dangling over the edge swinging her feet and coloring inside the children's coloring book in her lap. She wore a plain white shirt with an army jacket that was two sizes too big, and a long skirt with a colorful tribal print which billowed in the wind revealing that it was torn and tattered on the end. The girl hummed as she colored everything but the animals within the pages and looked up when she saw tiny movement far below and smiled. She had been there for hours without going inside and instead waiting for someone else to come and now that they had finally come she was ready to make her entrance.

Alyss stood up taking in a deep breath dropping the coloring book and letting it fall down to a small grassy court yard below, before following after it she stepped off the ledge plummeting downward allowing herself to fall only stopping herself a few feet before the ground. Alyss smiled and took off toward the front room, the school was a maze and she tried her hardest not to be seen by people before she got to the front room, kind of like a game and she was winning. When she had made it to the front room the dot she had seen from her vantage point had now turned into a person, when she saw this she became giddy with excitement and flew straight up to the stranger.

"Hi who are you, what's your name? Where do you come from? Do you have any friends? Will you be my friend? Too late, I've already decided it we're going to be good friends. You smell really nice." Not having had any contact with people in over a year this was the first time that she had talked to a person other than herself and she was quite nervous but at the same time over joyed that maybe there was someone like her, someone who understood her.

β€œThe most prestigious school in America, eh? Sure looks like it…” Tigress grumbled to herself as she surveyed the immense building on front of her. The hood over her head and headphone cord dangling by her neck made her look like some teenage delinquent preparing to vandalize the beautiful piece of property.

Her bright blue eyes scanned the large, expensive looking gate. β€œYou’d think that they would open the gate…” Instead of searching for someway to unlock it, she was sizing it up, estimating its height. It looked to be only about fifteen feet tall, maybe less. Probably one of the best and worst things about being on her own was the fact that she had no parents to tell her what to do. Perhaps if they had been there with her, they would’ve noticed the speaker by the gate.

Tigress smirked her white, toothy smile. β€œI can clear that easy.” Thank goodness she only had a backpack with her. She walked backwards a few steps, just enough so that she could get a nice running start. After she had moved back a sizable distance, Tigress rolled her shoulders, staring down the gate.

With a sharp intake of breath, Tigress was off. Her feet pounded against the earth as she sprinted forwards, her arms swinging with every stride to build up more speed. Once she was about as far away that the gate is high, she planted both of her feet on the ground, bent her knees, and leapt forwards and upwards. For a few short moments, she was flying. Her tail immediately moved out from under her shirt and helped angle her body so she wouldn’t land on her face. Her hood also fell to her shoulders so her round-tipped extra set of ears were exposed.

This was one of the times she would’ve liked to go back in time and try what she had done again. At first, Tigress thought she was going to land rather smoothly. Her feet were to first things to hit the ground, but she had forgotten to account for the forward momentum. So she tuck-and-rolled, curling up, and did indeed roll. A few times. But from the roll she immediately leapt to her feet in an attempt to recover the little bit of dignity she had.

A light shade of pink settled on her cheeks as she stood and dusted herself off. β€œSmooth…” She grumbled to herself. Her tail swished and swayed back and forth behind her. Her fuzzy ears perked on her head, swiveling in the direction of sounds. The voice in her head rang out..
You are not alone.


Tigress’ body stiffened into alertness. She glanced around her, her nose twitching. β€œThis is a school for people like me… I’m sure everything is fine.” She did her best to relax as she gazed upon the two other girls in the area.

Tom stood, for several minutes, looking through the metal gate, up at the school. It was fancy, it looked too fancy for someone like him and so he had come to the conclusion that it operated like Xavier's School for Gifted Youngsters, a school for people with unearthly abilities. The letter he had received did it's job in ensuring him that.

He stood for several more seconds, eyeing people in the courtyard, before noticing the buzzer at the side of the gate. He pushed his messenger bag to his side, and pressed the button. An annoying voice was heard through the speaker. "Name?" It questioned.

Tom frowned at the box, whoever was on the other side of the microphone needed to relax, they sounded way too serious.

"Please? Manners don't cost a thing. I'm Tom." The gate remained closed. "Uh--Thomas Brody?" The buzzer made a beeping sound before the gates swung open slowly, pleased with himself, Tom sauntered into the courtyard.

Walking forward he noticed not many other people, a girl stood over near the porch playing with the flowers, a girl talking to her; Tom presumed they were friends, and the girl closest to him... she had a tail--and cat ears.

"They're dropping us straight into it then..." He quietly told himself. On the outside Tom seemed fine, if not tired. On the inside he was near meltdown, all his life he had believed he was alone, the only human being with an unnatural ability, today he was proved wrong.

"Welcome to Havengade Heights." Tom jumped as a woman welcomed him, he hadn't seen her approach. "If you would kindly wait here with your classmates, the rest shall arrive soon." She gave a warm smile and carried on walking. He eyed her as she walked off, shoulders back and chin up.

Tom pushed his hand through his hair with a sigh and sat on a waist high wall. He wasn't sure what to make of this place yet, other than all of this was way out of his comfort zone. He pulled his phone from his pocket and focused on notifications in an attempt to block his surroundings out.

It was a peaceful day at the school as the new students filed in. Quiet. Almost serene...

This calm was a horrible, horrible thing, which absolutely had to go. Kevin felt obligated to correct this sin in the only way he knew how. Revving the engine of his silver 1967 Ford GT500(V8 watercooled stick-shift), he used his powers of metal manipulation to open the gates on his own and tear into the main courtyard blasting AC/DC's Shoot to Thrill, all while standing on the roof of the car and playing along on his Stratocaster, keeping the car going by holding down the metal behind the pedal and steering in the same manner. As the song finished up, he jumped off the GT500 with a flourish and spread his arms wide in a grand display.

"LADIES AND GENTLEMEN, THE GRAND MASTER OF CEREMONIES KEVIN STIHL HAS RETURNED!" he proclaimed, his voice echoing in the now silent-due-to-shock-at-the-absurdity courtyard. With a grin on his face and a kiss blown to the Headmistress(also making a mental note of the new Greenthumb), he placed the guitar in the back of his car, then moved the entire thing over to a more suitable parking spot ten feet over. "So," he said more to himself than anything afterwards, "WHAT, perchance, could be new this ye-"

The reason behind the miracle that is shutting up Kevin was him seeing the catgirl that had just finished up what looked to be an impromptu gymnastics routine. Now, see, Kevin had one major problem with any form of catgirl that didn't exceed 15% cat, this major problem being that his author had a specific fetish for them which, naturally, ended up leaving Kevin stuck with it as well. And yes, Kevin took every opportunity he could to curse the man for that. Without missing a beat, he walked over to the girl and took out an extra set of guitar strings from his pocket, the metals quickly melding into a ball and reforming as a rose, which he held out to her.

"Pardon me for asking, but are you new here? I ask because I think I'd remember a face that beautiful." he said gently, his eyebrow crooked up just so, and his eyes twinkling just enough that he didn't look like he was using his powers to do so. "If you'd like, I could give you a tour of the school, maybe even grab you something to eat?"

Andy sat quietly as the couch moving slowly towards the Havengade Heights. Right now, he didn't seem to believe where he was going either. He opened the letter and read it once again, just to confirm like a hundred times for now. It's so hard to believe isn't it? A moment ago, Andy was just an Asian gay study at a normal university with a normal job like any other Americans would, and now, he's on his way to the most prestigious school in the whole States, probably the whole world.

After a few hours of travelling, he finally got to his destination. Andy got off at a station and then walking to school by his own. It wasn't very far though. When he got there, he saw a fancy school with so many facilities. Well yeah, every students in this country have the same dream: to have to privilege to study here. Though this school is very mysterious. But at least Andy knows that he'd meet people who are also like him here.

Standing before Andy and the school's grounds is a huge metallic gate. Suddenly, some sparks tingling between his fingers. But before he could thought of something mischivious, a voice from the speaker from the wall next to the gate asked, "Name?"

Andy frowned, whoever speak must be some old, big, bad teacher if they speak in a serious tone like that. "They might be the richest school around here, but that didn't mean they can treat people like they wanted?", Andy thought.

"Andy Cho", he answered. After that, there was a beep and then the gate slowly opened. Andy then makes his way into the courtyard. A woman wearing an office suit and glasses came towards and greeted him, "Welcome to Havengade Heights. Please stand over there with your soon-to-be companions to wait, the rest should be here soon."

"My pleasure", Andy smiled and bowed to her before went to the group who were standing there. There were a boy with wearing glasses focusing with his phone, and another boy flirting with the a girl while the girls are talking with each others. "Hi. I guess you guys are also the "gifted" who was summoned here then? Nice to meet you", Andy said and gave them a heart-warming smile. "It seems that most of everyone are already here now"
, he thought.

"Harley hit me" her brother yelled in the jeep. Harley always sat in the front, but today she used her black converse as an extended arm to smack her well deserving brother in the arm.
"No I didn't you snot nosed twirp" she countered, looking in the back seat. Her Father let out a simple huff, turning the music up in the car.
"Yes she did. Dad she's lying. She hit me in the arm, see Daddy" Erick whined, pushing his "red" arm forward. Her Father finally had enough.
"Harley stop abusing your brother" he commanded in a gruff tone.
"He called me mental" Harley said with her eyebrows furrowed.
"Well you are mental"
"You aren't helping Father" she commented with annoyance. "Glad to know you think so highly of me" she frowned, resting her now throbbing head against the window. All the things she needed were in her large bag. She told her father to drop her off at the gates, and barely she waved goodbye. In school she worked her ass off to get to Havengade Heights, and he had the nerve to call her mental? Bullshit.

At the gates she pushed the black button.
"Name" a monotone voice seemed to say.
"Harley Jean Beretta" she sighed, taking some pills from her pocket and swallowing them quickly. She was sure to others she looked like a junkie at times if they were to see how often she took the pills. It wasn't her fault she got quick headaches. The gates opened and an older woman approached her. She looked somewhat familiar, like she had seen her before.
"Welcome to Havengade Heights. The others are within the gates waiting. Feel free to get acquainted, you are the last arrival" the woman said with a warm smile.
"Uh sweet, thanks" Harley said awkwardly before quickly sauntering past the large gates. Already she was getting the vibes of others. Finding a spot on the grass that was shaded by a tiny tree she sat down, observing the others quietly. One of the girls had a damn tail. She knew this was going to be an interesting school.

""Hi who are you, what's your name? Where do you come from? Do you have any friends? Will you be my friend? Too late, I've already decided it we're going to be good friends. You smell really nice."

Rowan stepped back a bit as she was hit with many questions from a fairly random girl. She was shy, immensely so, and her grandmother accounted it as her biggest flaw. She shifted the violin case from one hand to the other nervously. "I-I'm Rowan," she said with a flustered blush. She hated it when she stuttered. "I'm from Colorado... No, I don't have many friends... Thank you?"

She slowly lifted her eyes to look at the other girl when she finally saw the people that had joined them. A girl with a tail and cat ears, a kind of cute brown-haired guy-Rowan's blush deepened at that thought-, a guy flirting with the cat-eared girl, an Asian kid, and a girl that had separated herself from the group. "Okay, looks as if we're all here," the Headmistress said. "Now, as you know. You are all very gifted individuals, which is why you have been selected for the Celestian program as well. First, we will get your uniforms outfitted, you may were your street clothes until they are tailored. Boys dorms are on the west side of the school," she pointed in that direction before pointing opposite of it. "Girls dorms are in that direction. Each dorm building has a common room as well as it's own small library. Celestian members only room with Celestian members. You must be in your dorm building by nine on the weekdays and ten on the weekends. Lights out is not until midnight everyday. On the weekends, you are allowed to leave school premises, but you must be in the gates by nine thirty. Each member of the Celestian program has an allowance of two hundred dollars a week. This can be increased by taking on-campus jobs.

"You are expected to follow all of these rules, or you will be expelled from Havengade. Now, the Celestian program will be explained more in depth next week when you have your first meeting. Any questions so far?"


"Who will are roommates be?" Rowan asked quietly.

"Good question," the headmistress nodded her head. "I'll read the list now. Assigned to Room 16 in the girls' dorms: Rowan Anderson and Alyss Thomason. Room 18 in the girls' dorms: Anastasya Volkov and Harley Berretta. Room 41 in the boys' dorms: Thomas Brody and Kevin Stihl. Andy Cho, you are currently unassigned to a room. No room exchanges. Any other questions?"

Tigress did her best not to attract attention, though she found that rather difficult to do considering she had a tail with a mind of its own squirming behind her. As people began to show up, she found herself trying harder to keep a safe distance, more for their protection opposed to her own. As some strange person crashed loudly through the gates, Tigress practically jumped out of her skin. The loud roar of the car’s engine made her flinch, and her ears flatten to her head. She curled up her lips, her eyes flashing momentarily with anger.

The driver’s loud proclamation of entry made Tigress grimace, his bellowing voice echoed through her head.

"WHAT, perchance, could be new this ye-"

As their gazes lock, Tigress muttered β€œOh no..”

He approached her, despite the fact that the shock and distaste she was feeling was obvious by her facial expression. Tigress would admit that she found his powers interesting…

"Pardon me for asking, but are you new here? I ask because I think I'd remember a face that beautiful." Tigress raised her eyebrow as she glanced at the metal rose. "If you'd like, I could give you a tour of the school, maybe even grab you something to eat?"

Tigress blinked slowly, as if she was trying to comprehend the situation. Despite her confusion, she reached out and took the rose silently, staring at the metal object. She held it up, as if inspecting its craftsmanship.

He seems powerful. He would create strong children.

Not helping.

A scowl on her face, Tigress returned her sharp glare to the man before her. With a quick flash of her claws, her rose was cut in half, both pieces falling to the ground. β€œThanks for the offer, but why ask a question and then assume the answer?” She tilted her head to the side ever so slightly, her ears twitching. She crossed her arms. β€œYes, I am new. But, I am not interested in a wanna-be-Romeo-womanizer.”

And with that, Tigress turned and listened to the announcements made by the Headmistress. "... Room 18 in the girls' dorms: Anastasya Volkov and Harley Berretta..."

I hate that name… I wonder if I could get it changed to Tigress… And Harley? I’m not one to judge, but it is intriguing…

Tom was absent mindedly scrolling past useless status updates from people he didn't care for, he certainly didn't need to know about how their dog just learned to roll over for treats. All of a sudden the peace was ruined by the roar of an engine, a classic looking car came bellowing through the open gate and around the lot.

Right about then is where Tom would have usually sunk his head back down, ignoring the loud newcomer, but instead his mouth dropped when he noticed the man stood on top of the vehicle, his arms in the air. "Wow--you're a jackass." Tom scowled under his breath, he didn't quite agree with the show-off kind of attitude.

Looking around Tom noted the appearance of more students, one was an Asian guy, who bowed to the woman who welcomed him, Tom presumed she worked here, and a girl, who broke off from the group to sit on the grass.

Looking back down, Tom scrolled past more mind-numbingly boring updates from people he once knew. He brought his head back up when the woman of authority started explaining the rules to the group. "...Any questions?"

"Who will our room-mates be?" Tom turned to look at the girl with the question, and he recognised her as the girl that was admiring the flowers before. Tom turned back to the woman and listened for his name.

"...Room 41 in the boys' dorms: Thomas Brody and Kevin Stihl..." He looked over to Kevin, who seemed to be chatting up the girl with the tail, rather unsuccessfully.

"Great..." Tom dropped his attention back to his phone, as far as he was aware, the conversation had concluded, all of his questions had been answered. Picking up his bag from the wall as he pocketed his phone, Tom threw up the peace sign with his index and middle finger, and began walking to his dorm. He wasn't one to stick around to socialise.

As the students started to enter she began to sink to the ground till her bare feet lay flat on the cool cobblestone, in the past she had known people to be very afraid of her unnatural abilities. This confused her at first because she assumed everyone could do things like she could, when it turned out she was right her hopes were high and she was eager to meet the people who shared her uniqueness. But for the sake of the possible comfort of others she would stay on the ground.... for now.

In all honesty Alyss was there purely out of curiosity once she had learned all that she wanted she would probably get bored of it in a week and pull a disappearing act. As each of her fellow students arrived she studied them intently a huge smile on her face while still yammering on to her new found friend. Finally when the head mistress began speaking she scoffed at almost everything that she said, Uniforms? yeah right. Curfew? no thanks. Sleeping in a room? not a chance. All of these things conflicted with what Alyss was used to so far, she slept outside and fell asleep whenever and where ever she wanted and wore whatever clothes presented themselves to her, this did not include stuffy uniforms. Next thing she knew they were going to tell that she couldn't fly anywhere she went, the last thing she was going to do was walk around like some common person, pppfffttt.

"...Assigned to Room 16 in the girls' dorms: Rowan Anderson and Alyss Thomason." Alyss grabbed Rowan's arm shaking it back and forth, her smile and eyes were wild with excitement as she gave a high pitched squeal, "we're gonna be roommates!' As if the girl hadn't heard the answer to her own question. Alyss gripped the leather strap to the messenger bag that hung across over her shoulder. It was the only thing she carried wherever she went that held the few things she needed and held dear. "Should we go now?!"

Harley rolled her eyes at all the rules. Did they expect her to follow that? Harley wasn't a rebellious person. Normally she followed rules. But it sounded like they wanted to chain her down, something she couldn't handle. One did not simply chain Harley down...no no. Her heart seemed to stop at the mentions of uniforms. She had to wear a preppy school girl outfit? Hell to the no. If they made her wear that, she would have some issues. No corsets, no tight pants, no kick ass jewelry? She didn't know if she could stand it.

Harley fiddled with the multiple rings on her fingers. She had one on each finger as normal.
"... Room 18 in the girls' dorms: Anastasya Volkov and Harley Berretta..." the woman said, making Harley groan more internally. Now she had a cat as a roommate. Lovely. The pills she took earlier were beginning to kick in thankfully. She had a feeling she would need to take a lot of them to deal with this preppy school.

Looking to the direction of the female dorms she stood up from her spot on the grass, a boy walking past with a peace sign held up as he left.

Walking over to the girl named Anastasya she waved. A metal rose was fallen on the ground, and a boy in front of her.
"No means to break up whatever is going on, but I just thought I should say hello, seeing I'm your roommate" she said with a small smile, awkwardly looking around. Being telepathic Harley could read the minds of others, as well as project her own voice into theirs. She had also found that she could overload the minds of people. A trick she used on her Dad on a few occasions.

The only tell-tale sign to know when Harley was using her abilities was the slight change of eye color. From a crystal blue to a light lilac her eyes would turn. Often she wore sunglasses when out and about to conceal her eyes due to the random readings she would do.

Before anyone could make another move something happened, a peculiar gust of wind blew through the collection of people passing each person in turn first Thomas then Anastasya, Andy and so on. When the dust settled one extra body stood hands cupped standing proud in the center of the group with a smirk on his face looking around expectantly. "Ah, everyone this is Ryan Evans he will be with part of the Celestian Program and rooming with Mr. Cho. He arrived a month ago and is currently late to the first meeting," the woman gave him a look and he averted he glance by looking at the ground his smile dropping for a split instance before picking it back up again and looking at Harley as he gave a soft, "hi," his eyes were practically shinning as he opened up his cupped hands to release a small yellow butterfly which dwindled on his scared fingertips before taking flight up into the air. Ry wasn't watching its progress as it fluttered in the sky instead he was watching Harley's face so much so that he didn't see the butterfly make its way onto his head and climb through his messy hair.

This lasted only a few seconds before the boy seem to disappear in a gust of wind only to reappear standing on the outside of the group the butterfly lay in a crumbled heap where he had once stood. "You can refer to me as Ry, yes like the bread, I practically know the ins and outs of this building don't disturb me do not talk to me and most of all," here Ry gave a smile and a wink, "don't even entertain the delusion that we're going to become best buddies, because believe me when I say I don't know any of you and I already hate you." Ry held up a thumbs up with a big smile before turning his thumb down and making a mock pouty face.

It seems that everybody was too busy with their own business, so they didn't seem to gave much interaction with each other much. Andy sighed, "This is going to be a pain." He went to stood with the group until the woman who greeted him earlier came towards them and began to inducing about their upcoming days at this school and where they're going to stay.

"Okay, looks as if we're all here," the woman said. "Now, as you know. You are all very gifted individuals, which is why you have been selected for the Celestian program as well. First, we will get your uniforms outfitted, you may were your street clothes until they are tailored. Boys dorms are on the west side of the school," she pointed in that direction before pointing opposite of it. "Girls dorms are in that direction. Each dorm building has a common room as well as it's own small library. Celestian members only room with Celestian members. You must be in your dorm building by nine on the weekdays and ten on the weekends. Lights out is not until midnight everyday. On the weekends, you are allowed to leave school premises, but you must be in the gates by nine thirty. Each member of the Celestian program has an allowance of two hundred dollars a week. This can be increased by taking on-campus jobs."

Then when the girl asked about their teammates, the woman explained to them, but to Andy's part, "...Andy Cho, you are currently unassigned to a room. No room exchanges. Any other questions?"

"Wait a minute", Andy raised his arm and asked, "if I'm unassigned, then where do I suppose to stay?"

"Oh I forgot. You'll be staying at Room 19 all by yourself until another student arrive", she stated.

"Thanks", he smiled to her and said. "Well, staying all by myself wasn't going to be that bad, I guess", he thought.

But just as they started to move to their rooms, suddenly a gust of wind from nowhere blew through them, makes Andy shivered a bit and a boy appeared. The woman then introduced him as Ryan Evans, so Ry, as he called himself. It seems that Andy have found his roommate in the most unexpected moment.

The boy's entrance somehow made Andy irritated a bit earlier. But now, his attitudes totally pissed Andy off. "Seriously? I have to put up with this jerk from now?! What the hell is going on with this damn school? Does anyone around here have any manners at all?!", Andy thought as he grinded his teeth in anger as electrical sparks began to appeared from his skin. But he decided that it wouldn't be a good thing to do to storm off in the first day, so he calmed himself down and took a deep breath.

"Okay. If there aren't going to be any more surprises, I'm off. See you guys later", Andy stepped forward , turned his back and said to the group with a smile before taking his luggage with him to his room. He walked through his soon-to-be roommate with disdain. "This is going to be hell", he sighed, "but if that guy dare to touch just a finger on me, he has put his finger into an electric socket."

Kevin grinned as the rose sliced in half, immediately reforming it back as if it hadn't been cut before it hit the ground, then returning the form back into strings that leapt into his hand.

"Men aren't allowed to expect no for an answer?" he said as he slid the strings into his pocket, pausing to let the Headmistress make her speech to the newbs. Once she finished, he took off to his room, waving to the catgirl and her roommate and completely ignoring the new kid attempting to show off. That was HIS schtick. The walk back to the dorms was brief, and made it rather pointless to bring the GT500 along, but it had his stuff and Kevin was feeling lazy. Not even bothering to use his key as he slid the pins into place inside the lock, he opened the door and left it that way as he walked over to the window and opened that as well. On cue, three bags came flying up, having been hoisted by the zippers and metal he'd woven into the fabric from his car. See, Kevin's previous experiences here had taught him to constantly be on the lookout for metals to use during menial tasks, and he would be damned if he wasn't going to use his parent's lack of care and enormous bank accounts to prepare as such. With a quick motion, the bags flew to the bed he would be using and unzipped, ready to be unloaded. Glad to see everything proper, he turned to see his new roommate already there.

"Look," he said, leaning back on the wall by the window, "I can tell you seem to think I'm kind of an ass. And maybe I am a bit of a showoff. But the last thing I want is a roommate who I can't tolerate or vice versa, so if you ever feel I'm being too much, just say so, alright? Name's Kevin, pleasure to meet you, man." Kevin said, smiling warmly as he extended a hand to shake, both as a greeting and as a peace offering.

Tigress only flicked her ears as a sudden gust of wind blew past her. She knew its wasn’t the wind. The new scent of a male caused her to realize that they had a speedy gonzales in the school. The speedy male’s introduction made Tigress visibly grimace. Why is this whole school full of assholes…?

Once he was done, Tigress turned her attention back to the male in front of her. "Men aren't allowed to expect no for an answer?" She only shrugged her shoulders as he left. I can already tell that that won’t be the last I’ll be seeing of him…

Tigress sighed deeply and ran her fingers through her hair, careful to avoid touching her ears. Her icy blue gaze flicked over to the raven-haired girl in front of her who introduced herself as Tigress new roommate.
β€œSo you must be Harley.” Tigress’ attentive eyes swept up and down Harley’s body, taking in every small detail.

She is very pretty.

I agree.

β€œMy name is Anastasya, but you can call me Tigress. Shall we walk to our room together?” Tigress offered, nodding in the direction of the female dorms.

Tom was laid on his rather comfy bed, taking in the room. Everything was so clean and well kept, the place seemed like it was built for royalty. Of course Tom knew he wasn't royalty, and so doubted that fact.

He wondered why this was so sudden, how this school had chosen just now to take him in instead of grabbing him before. If it housed and was presumably ran by people with supernatural powers surely they had known for a while who and where the others were. He was confused, not complaining, but confused. The sudden proven existance of others like him overwhelmed Tom, he was excited to find out that he can finally identify and relate with another person.

He snapped out of his daydreamy state as the door to the room opened and Kevin walked in, he was Tom's room-mate so it as bound to happen, he had just forgotten about it. His bags threw themselves onto the empty bed and unzipped. Kevin turned and looked at Tom, and so Tom, in return, took his eyes off of the bags to meet his glance.

"Look," Tom readied himself for the pile of crap he was probably about to be shovelled. "I can tell you seem to think I'm kind of an ass. And maybe I am a bit of a showoff. But the last thing I want is a roommate who I can't tolerate or vice versa, so if you ever feel I'm being too much, just say so, alright? Name's Kevin, pleasure to meet you, man." Tom took a second to take everything in, he was so wrong about this guy, and admitted his fault.

"I did think you were kind of an ass, Kev." Tom took his hand and shook, lethargically. "But I'll admit, I judged you before I knew you and yeah, I was wrong. You're okay." He took a breath in and laid back down. "Also, just so you know--if there's any homework here, I'm copying yours."

Kevin grinned at Tom's remarks.

"What's this thing called homework? Seriously, we're emotionally unstable young adults with the potential to bring around an Armageddon if pushed too far, we're far too precious for them to "fail" or "expel" us, as long as we have a good grip on our powers and stay away from causing too much trouble. And before I forget my own sentence, yeah, I do tend to give off that ass-y vibe at first glance. I was raised in a theater family, y'see, literally EVERYTHING was an over-the-top act. Since that little stunt got a decent reaction last year, I figured I do it again this year, you know, keep up tradition. Didn't know that this year's class would be so... unresponsive."

As he spoke, he moved over to his clothes and slid a wire hangar into each shirt before letting them hang themselves on racks in the closet. "By the way, heads up, just to make things easier for you, my power is metal manipulation, so if you get locked out a lot like I did first year, I can either make you a spare or unlock the door for you. Ooh, also, one more thing, if you're anything like me, you'll try to sneak into the girl's dorms at least once after-hours to see a chick. Bad idea. I learned the hard way that results in a LOT of embarrassment for everyone involved." As the last item of clothing drifted into the closet, Kevin walked back to one of the bags and pulled a book out, flopping onto his bed and rolling onto his back, the title of the book, The Way of Shadows, barely readable due to the wear on the cover and spine.

"By the way," Kevin said aloud, his eyes flickering from the pages of the book to Tom, "Why do I get the ironic feeling that I won't be needing to unlock the door for you?"

Ry had already made it to the boys dorm and saw that someone was going into their room so he decided that he would make his way in behind them and found himself in a room with two other guys who were having some conversation that he wasn't paying attention to while they were busy not noticing he was there. In the time before he went to the cafeteria for an apple which he had clutched in his hand now, when the two had
finished their conversation he took a huge bite trying to make as much noise as possible. He chewed open mouthed for a while before he could speak, "This is cute no I mean it this is really cute this little thing you got going on here," he swirled his hand in their direction as if they didn't understand what he was talking about, "no, no don't mind me please continue with your... whatever this. Sausage fest slash make out session, anyway I just wanted to check out the new meat or in this kids case old meat." Ry indicated Kevin grinning.
"It's been lovely to meet you ladies but I must be off now on to bigger and better things. Oh, also one more thing is whatever you do, stay away from the Madam Pencilskirt trust me. Consider this the only help I'm giving you." Ry left making his way around the campus checking out the rears of several people who's faces he did not see and nipping one of them as he went by leaving a gust of wind where ever he went. He made one finale lap around the campus before arriving at his dorm room and stepping inside.

Kevin blinked for a second to compose himself, then, once Ry was back in his dorm, took every single piece of metal on Ry's outfit(mainly the buttons and zippers on his jeans and jacket), lifted him into the air, and pulled him into their room again so he couldn't run. Slamming him into the wall to knock the wind out of him, Kevin's metal guitar strings slithered around his wrists and into a choking position on the boy's neck, making movement even more of a bad idea, as too much action near that much garrote wire would mean one severed head.

"There are few things I do not tolerate, newbie." he said gently, his grip tightening as he felt the fingers of his right hand dig into the brat's throat, "And since you're not an orange, that makes you a little twat who thinks that he can get away with fuckall. Consider this *MY* help to you, seeing as I have two years of experience on you with this school, and thus how many speedsters we get here and their lack of care on losing one, but how few ferromancers exist, and thus my own increased value. If I ever see you acting the way you just were... Well, there's iron in your blood known as hemoglobin that delivers oxygen to your body. Funny how easily people can be turned into vegetables when said hemoglobin never makes it to the brain. Nod if you understand your place here."

Kevin's tone was brutal, as if he'd tossed off the mask of a student and donned the mask of a murderer. Any look into his eyes would just show the tranquil fury burning there and how fucked Ry would be if he did anything other than nod and say "yes, sir". Like everything else, of course, this was another act(Kevin wouldn't harm the guy while in this dorm, it'd cause too much of a mess and he'd already unloaded all of his shirts), but when one spends their life in a masquerade, only a mindreader would be able to tell the difference between that man's act and his reality.

Tom simply nodded at Kevin, he acknowledged and appreciated the offer of unlocking the door for him if he needed it, Kevin having the ability to manipulate metal, but the concept of an unreachable area didn't exist to Tom, the teleporter.

"I can-" He was cut off by another voice, Tom turned to look at the newcomer to the room.

"This is cute no I mean it this is really cute this little thing you got going on here, no, no don't mind me please continue with your... whatever this. Sausage fest slash make out session, anyway I just wanted to check out the new meat or in this kids case old meat." Tom didn't recognise him from the courtyard and assumed from his unlikable tone and attitude that he'd been here longer than others. "It's been lovely to meet you ladies but I must be off now on to bigger and better things. Oh, also one more thing is whatever you do, stay away from the Madam Pencilskirt trust me. Consider this the only help I'm giving you." This soul quickly brought Tom to the conclusion that this school was filled with pompous assholes that think they know everything.

As he took off again the room was stricken with silence. Tom just eyed the door that was now open. Looking at Kevin Tom realised he didn't seem like the happiest guy in the world, guesses were he didn't like being told what's up.

It wasn't even a minute or two before Kevin got to his feet and cleared the door, the scuffling of feet was heard and he burst back through the door, pulling the same guy by the metal in his clothes. He threw him against the wall and tightened what looked like guitar strings around his throat.

"There are few things I do not tolerate, newbie--" Tom didn't wait to hear any more of what he had to say and quite literally vanished from the room in what would look like a fraction of a second, no noise, no flashy explosions of colour or visuals, no outward force, he just silently and instantly vanished.

In an unmeasurable amount of time he appeared right in the middle of the group of new students that were still waiting in the courtyard, and addressed nobody in particular, rather loudly in the hopes that staff would still be lingering, "There are people already killing each other. Like already." Tom had very few noticeable personality traits, and violent was definitely not one of them. The second anything stressful made itself apparent, that was Tom's cue to leave. "Can we get a clean-up in isle my dorm-room?"

Harley smiled slightly when her roommate said her name. She nodded simply in response.
β€œMy name is Anastasya, but you can call me Tigress. Shall we walk to our room together?” the feline girl said, looking towards the female dorms. Again, Harley nodded her head, but on accident, instead of responding to the girl aloud - she ended up speaking to her telepathically. 'Sounds like a plan' was what she had projected. At the realization of what she accidentally did, she quickly apologized, verbally this time.
"Sorry about that" she said awkwardly.
A gust of wind hit the group before another male showed up on campus. She raised a brow at the speedy entrance. He said his piece before leaving, just as quick as he came. This was for sure going to be an interesting school.

She began walking in the direction of the female dorms. While walking she heard the sound of one of the guys that had previously left to the male dorms, saying something witty about his violent roommates or something. She was curious to see who the trouble maker was. As she walked away with her new feline roommate, she decided to spark up a conversation. She had a blatant idea of who the verdict was, but nothing was for certain, especially now. Linking minds with the guy she believed was named Thomas, she asked a question telepathically. 'Was the trouble maker the metal head?'

Her gaze went over to the girl who seemed to be a cat...or some sort of feline.
"If you don't mind me asking, what animal are you exactly?" she asked. Harley was full of questions for everyone. She wondered how the cat like girl would react to water and such. They arrived at the dorm, and Harley quickly made her way through the room that was supposed to theirs.

With the slight nod of her roommate, Tigress’ smile grew a bit more real.
β€œSounds like a plan.”

Tigress’ entire body tensed and her tail fluffed up, standing up straight behind her. "Sorry about that.” If Harley’s apology hadn’t been so genuine, Tigress probably would’ve snapped at her. Her jaw clenched as she counted down from ten in her head. Once she hit one, she let out a deep, heavy breath from her mouth. She did her best to ignore the commotion going on around them, and focused on keeping herself calm.

β€œIts…. Fine.” She lowered her tail, hoping the fur on it would do the same. Oh my goodness… they roomed with Professor X’s reincarnate.

She’s going to find out...


Find out what?

Shut up.

Tigress walked beside her roommate as they began to make their way to their dorms. She stared down at her feet as she walked, her ears twitching and making sure she doesn’t bump into a wall or something. She could feel someone’s gaze on her, so she raised her own and looked at Harley curiously.

"If you don't mind me asking, what animal are you exactly?"

Before she could stop herself, Tigress let out a hearty chuckle. β€œMy nickname is Tigress, so I must be part panther.” She giggled, flashing her toothy grin. β€œTechnically, I’m mostly human, but I’m somewhere around 7% Siberian Tiger.” She answered, shifted her backpack on her shoulders. β€œIts fun answering questions about my powers. They’re very odd, really… You’d be surprised how many feline stereotypes I adhere to.” Like being pet…
She said that last bit in her head, another light blush appearing on her cheeks.

Alyss looked up at the sudden appearance of the boy in the courtyard, the only ones left there was herself and Rowan, everyone else had gone to their dorms and now he had appeared as if from thin air. It made Alyss practically jump, when she heard what he had to say she raised her eyebrows and went up to him, "where?" she asked more than a little excited. This was the first exciting thing she had seen in a long while and she wasn't about to miss it. She looked down noticing that her feet weren't touching the ground she had glided over to him instead of walking and she hadn't even realized it until just now.
There was no use in hiding it now it was bound to come out eventually and beside supposedly she was among friends, people like her. However if that were the truth they wouldn't be trying to kill each other, these people were definitely much different from the interactions that she had in the past. Alyss felt that she was really going to like this place, "Take me there."

Ry felt himself being pulled something he didn't much like the feeling of it and attempted in vain to flee, when he found himself in the room that he had been in moments ago "Oh hey fellows, so nice to see you agai-.." was all he got out before something painful was wrapped around his neck he tried to grab at it, to pull it away but his wrists were locked as well. Ry listened to the guys speech but only half the other half of his attention was on getting free, he didn't much like not being able to move around freely, and now that he was immobile he was desperate to get free.
After the monologue was finished Ry finally replied through gritted teeth, "you're bluffing." and immediately regretted it for the tight band around his neck grew only tighter closing off his air way and keeping him from talking any further but he wasn't about to give in so quickly. He slowly yanked one arm free enough to grab hold of the cord around his neck enough to loosen it up so that he could breathe once more.
So this is what I get for helping, he thought, next time I'll just let them find out for themselves.
He tried to look over to wear the other kid was, he looked a bit saner but he was nowhere in site. Great.

Andy closed his eyes as he felt the warming water streams dripping on every inches of his body. He has finished unpacking his stuffs already and now all he wants now is to find something to eat and then lay down and reading in peace. Andy has enough surprises for today and some of them aren't pleasant at all. "I don't know if I could survive this or not, but I have to try my best though", he thought as he washes his hair.

A few moments later, after he has finished cleaning every pinch of dust off his body, he turned off the faucet, put on his jeans and got out of the bathroom half-naked. He took the towel and dried his hair as some drops of water still dripping from his torso. "Right, I should go to the cafeteria to see if there are anything to fill my stomach first, then I'll be ready for whatever they're going to throw at us tomorrow", he said to himself.

After he has finished taking his shower, he got out of the bathroom and changed into another suitable outfits. It seems that his "roommate" hasn't returned yet. "Going around and looking for troubles, no doubt", Andy thought while got out of the room and locked the door."Let's see, if I remember correctly then the cafeteria is this way", he thought then after walking through a few halls, he got to the cafeteria. Andy took a tray and grabbed some food from the food stall. He then set his eyes around the room to find a suitable seat. "

Once an Item has been created, it can be spawned in the IC using /spawn Item Name (case-sensitive, as usual) — this can be followed with /take Item Name to retrieve the item into the current character's inventory.

Re: Celestian

Having given it a few days, I think we can say it's the four of us right now. Let's send around some PMs and see if anyone else is coming back before we decide anything, agreed?

Re: Celestian

Halllooo! I'm here still >_> <_<

Re: Celestian

I'm here but both my character have nothing good to do I could probably make a post for Alyss but that's only if more people are still here

Re: Celestian

I'm here, but that does seem to be the reality of it. I hate when this happens.

Re: Celestian

Anyone home? Or is this oasis unfortunately drying up?

Re: Celestian

With a bit of luck today won't draw any lines in the sand. And if it does, well, according to Aiden lines are meant to be crossed.

Re: Celestian

Hopefully we won't be as confrontational as the plot moves on, it's been hardly any time and most of the characters hate each other. :(

Re: Celestian

Whatever. I put it past me and came up with an idea for a post that doesn't involve Tigress trying to kill someone. All is well now.

Re: Celestian

Starlight, the "by accident" part was a little something outside of Kevin's control called Thomas, and you're taking something that means Kevin can't just use blood like it's what his main power is, I'm saying he changed the hemoglobin's atomic structure to repel oxygen(And once again, this is an rp about superpowers, don't ask how he does it specifically, that's like asking how your character can change forms without breaking every bone in her body) and had to be in close range to change it back. As for the sound amping, you are once again assuming the gauntlets look like your average medieval gauntlet, when, once again(good thing I don't have to pay royalties on that phrase), he could make them look like rabbits for all he cared and still call them gauntlets because they are metal hand/arm covers(and since he controls all the properties of metal, he can also alter how well they handle acoustics and where they direct it). And as anyone who's taken a physics class can tell you, sound travels through solids and liquids, which the body(Kev's in this case) happens to be made of. He could have made boots that did the same thing, but then he'd have the problem you mentioned of the sound coming from two points that are further off, rather than three the can be triangulated. And either way, the yell was merely meant to show he wasn't backing down, a response to hers.

But, like everyone else, I wish to avoid conflict, so this is my offer: Tigress is temporarily deafened for a little bit(ears ringing at least), stumbles a bit, leaps at Kev in rage, pins him(because he's a master of metal, not Hulk Hogan), someone else intervenes before things get kinky.

P.S. i'm not arguing about backstory either, I'm pointing out exactly WHY he does what he does. Is it wrong to explain why my character can be an ass, yet ends up trying to be decent when not provoked?

Re: Celestian

Alright well since I don't want this rp to die I might post if no one does not to cause drama but to keep the story moving along, I'm still waiting for Felilla to come back and mediate or post or something, haven't seen her in a while.

Re: Celestian

I have no idea. I'm just waiting for Thunder to respond. I just altogether don't like/understand Thunder's last, full post.

Re: Celestian

So... where do we go from here?

Re: Celestian

It's not your fault, there's no need to edit anything. Though your character may get caught up in the crazy. Fair warning.

Re: Celestian

Well, sorry if I suddenly jumped in without knowing anything. It just that I have the feeling that I was being rejected and I just want to take part in something. If you feel uneasy then I'll just edit that part out, end of story.

Re: Celestian

I appreciate what you guys are trying to do, but I feel like adding Ry into the situation would only make it more confusing and hectic than it already is.

And I actually liked your post, Dragon, because you're character actually expressed an emotion that made sense. And you actually described the emotion.

I'm sorry if I sound really pissy but I'm just... aggravated. I want to keep the roleplay going but Thunder's post just confuses and frustrates me.

Re: Celestian

Hey hey hey how bout this I get Ry in there to do his flashy show so that you guys can hate on him without hating on each other how does that sound? It keeps the story going and it's not out of character for him.

P.S. I don't want to steal the show or anything I just thought it would be a logical solution

Re: Celestian

Guys, I get that this is a touchy subject, but can we please cool down? I'm not saying there aren't points being made here, but it doesn't help getting mad, justified or not.

Star, I know what a pain it is to feel written into a corner, but I'm sure there's a way to deal with this. If there's any way I can help with that, just say the word and I'll be glad to.

Re: Celestian

I still can't get over the fact that they're Gauntlets. Pieces of armor around the wrists. Once again, the sound waves are moving towards Tigress, and much less so directly underneath his mouth. Also, that would only really produce a sound about as loud as a cheerleading, nonelectronic megaphones.

And those examples you gave don't really prove a threat to Kevin. And you say his control of the iron in humans isn't good, yet he almost killed Ry by accident.

I also don't want to get into an argument about who's character has the saddest backstory.

Oh, and is it in common knowledge to know that a tiger's roar reaches over 100 decibels to someone standing close by and can be heard from miles away? No? Just me, the animal geek over here?

Alright, whatever, I'll look past the other shit. But how do you expect me to respond to that? All of the responses I've thought up are rather extreme and involve either A) Tigress losing control and attempting to kill Kevin, or B) Tigress going partially fucking deaf if that sound is as loud as you say it is. I don't want either of those things to happen considering I don't want everyone to hate Tigress already and I don't want any permanent damage to her hearing considering, ahem, its her strongest sense.

Re: Celestian

Why is my character mentioned in this. I don't get how this has anything to do with me/her.

Re: Celestian

Starlight, need I mention again he's had experience at this school? To him, a tiger dropping down in front of him is like watching someone grow a giant oak from an acorn in a minute, or watching someone move around as if they'd switched off gravity. It's not that big a shock. Also, Kevin is an actor from a long line of actors groomed to be an actor, whether he liked it or not. And he's a master, at that. Yeah, it took him off guard, but he's every bit as capable of hiding his actual emotions as he is showing them.

As for powers, Magneto's power is SPECIFICALLY magnetism, hence the name. Kevin Stihl(pronounced STEEL) controls ALL aspects of the metal itself, including shape and durability. He could have made those gauntlets wafer-thin and hollow on the inside to reverb sound and they'd remain effective. With that same note(pun intended), he can also change their acoustics to vibrate at the same tone as his voice while amplifying the volume as he yells and sound resonates across the surface, something he's declared experience in, much like his blood control, which he's already shown to be mediocre at best(i.e., he can't rip the iron out of their bodies or make them dance like puppets, only change a few aspects of it while it's inside them, which alone can carry him pretty far with a basic knowledge of anatomy). While yeah, I understand upon reviewing the post I made on a lack of sleep that a drop in temperature is out of bounds and will be removed, I also have to point out that I clearly stated in his powers he is fully aware of all metal within a certain range of him, akin to a sixth sense. Before you say it should be unbearable to know where metal is 24/7, realize that your roommate can read minds, so it's kind of hard to let logic control most of this argument.

Finally, Kevin's personality. Yeah, it's chafing, because I MEANT it to be. Kevin has to be the best, even if it means doing stupid shit most people normally wouldn't and even if it turns away a few people. You try spending every day of your life constantly criticized for not living up to expectations set on you before you had self-awareness and not developing a complex. Believe me, it sucks. And the crippling fear of being alone makes it a vicious cycle, where you attempt to build relationships, lose them, then panic at not having friends, so you tend to seek affection in any way you can.

P.S., I apologize for the oneliner, Cordeaux, and to you, Chrian, for not including you, but Kevin didn't really have much to say there, but he felt it necessary to say. I was simply dictating his immediate response to someone waltzing in and not feeling the tension in the area, not giving a set prose on what he thought of the new guy who he wasn't really focusing on so he wouldn't get eaten horribly.
