Introduction
The children at this academy have been known to be strange. Often reclusive, and loving solitude, and most of the time, they have gifts. They donate all their energy and time into a certain thing, and occasionally, things, they love, be it singing, drawing, cooking, a sport, or something entirely else. What these children don't realize is that they enhance their gifts to the point where it becomes more powerful than any ordinary gifts, but that putting the wrong energies into them could entirely destroy their gifts, or turn them to the darker side, where they are corrupted. That is why these gifts are protected so strongly. These gifts have the power to shift balances, to change minds, when used correctly.
Everest Academy is a stronghold. It is made to protect the children and their gifts, until they are strong enough to deal with their enemies. But Everest Academy has to be protected itself, from the corrupted gifts that exist. Every so often, the children go on field trips that last for weeks, and they notice, when they're back, that the staff seem unusually tired, and the structure of things have changed.
But eventually, most forget about it, and in most cases, they aren't told about the powers of their gifts until they are at least in their second-year of attendance at the Academy. Even then, they are rarely told about the threat that exists to their school. The headmistress controls this, and she is quite the powerful woman, being able to keep Everest Academy controlled and in order. But now, it seems like Everest Academy's new generation is a bit more than she bargained for.
Pretty clear, huh? If not, please tell me. I would like it to be clear to everyone! But I think it's pretty straightforward...

"Oh, good. I would hate to be dreaming." I said, trying to get up slowly. "I'm as okay as I can be. I feel pretty... well." Lie. I felt like I was going to die. My head hurt like someone was using it to find the most effective ways of torture. It almost brought tears to my eyes, but not quite. I haven't cried in years. "What happened?"
Ms. DiAngelo
I butt in. "You had another one of your migraines." It was the partial truth. "Alexis, do you want painkillers?"
I knew she would say no, but I still had to ask.
She shook her head. "They never work. Nothing works. I just have to bear with, sensei." She had gone back to speaking partial Japanese, the way she would be in the Japanese community where she had gone to school before.

James after concluding his introduction and tour of the school said goodbye to Devon Leheart. digging his mp3 player out of his bag, putting on his headphones he began to blare the music of his favorite screamo bands, a few minutes later he was at the library, it didnt take him long to find the ancient texts and even less to build a stack of books from the hundered he had immeditaly choosen he selected "Metapophoses" by ovid, "The Art of War" by Sun Tzu, "Commentaries on the Gallic War" by Julius Ceaser and "The Histories" by Herodotus, reading them for the first time he immediatly understood their meanings, took their meanigs to heart, and accepting their wisdom. he then headed to his dorm room to place his things, then his stomach lurched again and he vomited blood, it had been a week since he was beaten within inches of his life and that brand burned into the middle of his chest, and he had healed faster then most people and he knew that, his healing was nothing new his gunshot wound healed in a matter of hours, but he had been vomiting blood for three days. dizzily he staggared to the infirmary getting to the front door he looked around and cursed no one there either, he slumps against the wall and passes out

"Blood?" Jacob breathed in disbelief. Willow darted towards the door yanking it open, blood wasn't exactly a smell you could forget, though the others may not be able to. When she looked around outside the door, she saw a boy, apparently unconcious, leaning against the wall. Spewing a bit of foul language, she moved towards him without hesitation. He was the sourse of tthe blood smell, he had it all over him. Looked like this was the day for this sort of thing. Willow pulled him up, throwing one of his arms over her shoulder, she'd be able to get him into the infirmery at least.
"Will what...Oh my God," Jacob said as she entered the room. He moved to help his sister but she was already putting the boy onto one of the beds.
"Great," Willow mumbled, "Now I've got blood on my clothes." She could deal with blood, actualy pretty well, but she really didn't like the smell.
"I'm glad your awake," She offered to Alex, unsure where to sit herself with the blood, eventually she chose to just stand, "Anyone know who he is?"

When the twins brought in the other boy however, Riku was beginning to feel sick, the color draing from his face. He couldn't deal with blood at all, mainly because he had never really been in the situation where he would be around it. Yeah, he had been hurt before, but it had only been really minor things, like small cuts or scrapes. Even that had made him sick though, once he had seen the blood.
"...B-Blood?...Not like....", he whimpered, shuffling back further onto Kage's bed, bringing his knees up to his chest, in an attempt to get away from it. He really, really couldn't deal with blood...

"Well, this is fun," she mumbled, looking over at him, "Thanks for this, what'd you do to yourself?" Jacob shook his head, there was always one person who couldn't take blood, it had been him at one point. Thankfully he didn't have any blood on him.
"I don't know how we're going to treat him, Dia?" he asked uncertainly.

james dreamt he was in the hospital with his mother was in the corner crying, his brothers had died long an hour before the ambulance arrived, he pulled the roses out hoping to cheer her up they were staind red with blood, and had he been of a right mind would never have given them to her, but he was high on pain killers and gave them to her "im sorry, mommie" he said in his mind he muttered that he had failed as a big brother as the man of his house, he had failed them all. his mother looked down at the roses and looked at him in the eyes and slit he throat with the thorns.
James bolted up right screaming, then cluched his chest and looked around, that mark was burning, but looked at the students around him "It figures i meet people while i was at my weakest"

"Yeah," she replied when he spoke, unsure what to do, "You’re in the infirmary, what happened? And do you need anything?" Jacob came back through the curtain at the scream, seeing the boy awake he sighed and ran a hand through his hair.
"Hey," he said, offering a small wave, "Sorry about the curtain but one of our friends isn't fond of blood. Will, do mind staying in here for now?" Willow shook her head and Jacob went back around the curtain.
"He's awake, I think he had a nightmare," he said to the room in general, then he flopped onto a chair, "Guys, let’s not make a habit of this, deal?"

"K-Kage...feel sick...very sick...", he said, his voice a quiet whimper. Like a child's. If he was actually feeling okay, he would've hated that. Right now though, he was scared.
He hadn't realised he had called Kage simply by his name, without a honorofic. Normally for him, that would be unforgivable. He wasn't really thinking straight at the moment though.

"If you don't feel comfortable looking at blood, then don't look..."
He hugged Riku and let the boy's head bury in his chest. He whispered in Riku's ears "...I am here...you don't have to be scared anymore...I will help you..." He used his power to temporarily numb the fear in Riku. Although he was still very weak and he couldn't use his power to its fullest, the power he was using would at least be able to reduce the boy's fear somewhat.

"Arigato...onii-san...gomenasai...", he said quietly, though his words were muffled somewhat due to how close he was to Kage. He felt so useless, and didn't like how much he was depending on Kage, but at the same time, was glad that the older boy seemed to care for him like this. He had always wanted a big brother. Now it seemed he had one. Even if Kage didn't want him to be that, Riku would still class him as an older brother anyway.
He felt guilty though, for making Kage use his power on him when he was still weak from helping Alex. He would have to make it up to him somehow...

"This just seems to be the day of the nightmares." I muttered loudly.
I watched everything quietly. Finally, everything seemed to have settled down.
"Now then... I'm Dia, or Eve." I told James, remembering his history. There were a lot of bad ones; his was yet another one of them.
Alexis
I suddenly had a flash, remembering using my singing... it had fixed everything... but, no. Powers didn't exist. They couldn't exist. Life wasn't a fairytale, I knew it wasn't a fairytale. But still... It couldn't hurt. It could help. Do it. No, don't. Powers don't exist.
I started talking to myself, quietly, talking about people from the past who had seen my powers, then disappeared, ignoring everything around me. Mama made us move every time till I learned not to. "Ogata-san, no, you must have imagined... Maya-chan, say you imagined it, or I will have to move away. Please, Maya-chan! Don't... No, no... I didn't do anything. It's just a story, we were just playing pretend... no, I never..."
I felt the tears building up and fought them, like I fought my brain. And then I stood up straight, with help from the bedpost, opened my mouth, and started to sing the new beginning song, watching the bloodstains fade, and watching the room put itself into order, while everyone else started to look better, and less sick. I hated hospitals, I hated infirmaries, and I hated people who were hurt.
And that's what I was thinking when I collapsed.

"This is getting ridiculous," she mumbled. Jacob gave her a disapproving look and she flopped onto one of the unused bed, she was really tired. Jacob watched Kage comforting Riku but remained where he was. Riku hadn't seemed to like lots of attention and Kage was more likely to make him feel better anyway. Despite this Jacob felt a little annoyed that he couldn't be more help.
"Bloods gone now," he said to James, "Might as well stay. At least if anything else happens your still in the infirmary." He still wasn't sure what'd happened to the other guy, and he already seemed a bit better but better safe than sorry. If he collapsed somewhere around the school covered in blood, someone might think he was dead, or be totally freaked out, or both. Definitely better he stay here if there was a chance of that.

Brooks jumped a little when Mizuko grabbed Brooks' elbow. "No I haven't gone to the testing room yet." He rubbed the back of his head sheepishly and said. "I've really only been to my dorm and the headmistress' office."
"Well, you two are certainly getting along well." Nero commented. He gave a small chuckle and said, "Before you know it you'll be on your first date."
The veins on Brooks' forhead grew huge and distinctive (Think anime), as he shook his fist at the smiling boy. "ARE YOU TRYING TO PICK A FIGHT WITH ME?!" Brooks shouted.
Nero just chuckled a little more, not taking the threat seriously. "It might appear that way, huh?"
Brooks just turned toward the entrance to the main building. "Tch, whatever. You comin' Nero?"
"Actually, no. My father instructed me to find my dorm and get myself situated." Nero said.
"You don't have to do everything your dad tells you to." Brooks said, then shrugged, "Whatever. Let's go Mizuko."
"So you are trying to pick a fight with me." Brooks said with a monotone.
Nero chuckled again then turned around. "Maybe I'll see you guys later." He said with a smile and began walking toward the entrance of the building where the dorms were located.

"How'd you get your ribs broken?" She asked James curiously. She always had a tendance towards bluntness. Jacob rolled his eyes at her, she could have at least a little restraint.

"Oh, jeez, this is going to be a nasty and yet beautiful year. I still need a Bellerophon!" I started mumbling again, thinking about the Alexander the Great battle I was planning on executing.
I suddenly looked at the alchemic symbol. "I've seen that somewhere. Just don't ask me where or when or what it means, because I can't remember it. Does it hurt? Do you need ice?" I was already going to get ice without listening for a response while wondering at the same time why Alexis had to be such a hard case, and Kage had to be so helpful. Not that it's a bad thing, it just complicated things.
