Zane's Story

Zane turned the corner wearing his usual human clothing and a back pack over his shoulder with his Gauntlet and some cloths. He looked over seeing a girl drumming her hands on the railing he was about to say 'Hi.' until he saw her cross and he sniffed the air, Holy Water!? he backed away around the corner as fast as he could he then found a bench away from the scary nun girl at the front of the ferry. He looked out into the water before moving over the edge into the deep blue water, he looked terrified of the water as well he couldn't actually swim as a demon he never needed to learn and being this one of his few times here, in the human world mostly everything was new to him. "It's okay..." he said tapping his fingers against the railing that was protecting him from the water.

Ethan heard someone calling from below and looked down from his fiddling. He blinked rapidly and his eyes widened. Ethan was fairly certain that was a mermaid holding on to the boat. He sloppily pocketed his watch, leaning over the railing slightly further.

"Hello! Oh, wow, you're a mermaid, right?" He called down, "I'm Ethan, who're you?"

Once the boat docked Zane smiled, "Finally!" he said happy to be off the water, he grabbed his backpack with somethings inside and also his heirloom. As Zane was walking to get off the boat he sniffed the air catching scents of two other demons but something else, he turned aroun puzzled and stared at Dezzy with his Red eye's. He readjusted his backpack on his shoulder as his head was slightly tilted to the right, "Um hi." he said waving at her with his left hand as he looked her over.

It had been five minutes before the boat docked at the island. Dezzy sighed and pulled along her suitcase when she heard a voice. "Um hi." Dezzy looked around for the voice of the person who had said hi when she saw a boy with white hair and red eyes. Dezzy barely had time to say Hi before he got off the boat. Dezzy frowned and followed him over where he sat down on the grass which was shaded by a tree. Dezzy plopped down beside him and whispered, "Hello there... I noticed you greeted me earlier but I never got the turn to say Hi.... So hello.... My name is Dezzy, what's yours?" She asks, holding out her hand for a handshake, her pigtails flapping wildly in the sudden burst of wind that brushed her, making her shiver.

Zane looked up from his quick sketch of a tree and looked at Dezzy's hand before shaking it and he smiled, as the wind blew his hair away from his eye's "My name's Zane, nice to meet you Dezzy." he said still smiling and putting his Sketch Pad away in his backpack. "You didn't come over on the boat with us. Did you miss it?" he asked making himself alittle more comfortable against the tree. He wondered what type of Myth she was?

After gathering his things from the cafe, Samson decided to go along a stroll to see the rest of the island before the gates opened. In a daze, thinking of Enkeli, he accidentally tripped over someone. "Sorry! I didn't mean... Oh, crud!" His eyes widened in terror as he realized it was a demon. "I mean no harm! Honest! I was just lost in thought, is all!"

(Lol she was on the boat....) The boy shook her hand and said,"My name's Zane, nice to meet you Dezzy." Dezzy smiled. "You can call me Dez..." she said in a soft tone. "You didn't come over on the boat with us. Did you miss it?" Zane asked. Dez frowned. "I was on the boat..." She said slowly... "You must've not seen me... People tend to ignore me... I'm used to being invisible..." Dez sighed and looked up, now placing a smile on her face. "So... What are you? I'm a zombie... Don't worry I wont eat you!" Dez laughs.

Samson did not want to stay and see what the demon would do."E-excuse me! I better go, now!" He got up and flew on back to the cafe. Brushing the dirt and grass off, he was sort of glad at the fact he now may have a reason to replace those stupid clothes of his which made him seem 'important' once the stains kick in Once inside, he noticed a familiar face.

"Enkeli? Is that you?" Once he got closer and realized it was her, he instantly gave her a hug. "I've been trying to get a hold of you on the phone for weeks! How've you been since you last visited the Great Smokey Mountains?"

(Read the row boat bit XD thought she caught up later and hadn't een on the ferry.) When she said she was a Zombie he brought out his sketch pad and started drawing again. "Really." his eye's looked up at Dezzy before going back down to the page and more sounds of pen against paper were heard. He then stopped looking up at her and he smiled, "Sorry I'm a..." he stopped not sure if Zombie's hated Demons or liked them. "Um Demon." he said the last word a lot quieter. He then went back to his paper and drew or a few more seconds before looking down at it smiling and showing Dezzy. The quick sketch even tho quick it was a perfect drawing of Dezzy from her neck up, "S-Sorry if it doesn't look right." he said leaning over and looking at the drawing of Dezzy before looking back at the real one an he smiled again.

Dez watched him take out his sketch pad and begin drawing. "Really." his eyes looked up at her for a second before returning to the sheet of paper. He scribbled down lines but Dez couldn't figure out what he was drawing. Zane looks back up at her and mumbles, "Sorry I'm a..." he pauses. "Um Demon." he says that last word quiet. "Oh cool! I've never met a demon before!!! Let alone another supernatural being!!!" Dez exclaims, idly plucking at the grass. Zane quickly went back to drawing. A couple moments later he looks back up and shows the work. Dez thought it was beautiful. Even before she noticed what it was. "S-Sorry if it doesn't look right." he said as he leaned over and looked at the picture before looking back up at her. "Oh no its wonderful!! I haven't really had contact with another person and well... I've never had a portrait done!!! Thank you so much!!!" She says as she wraps her arms around his. "I'll cherish it forever!!!" Dez smiles.

"Well your the first Zombie I've meet. I also promise I won't take your soul." he chuckled but was more then surprised as Dez actually liked the drawing, "Y-You actually like it?" his smile seemed to get brighter, "I'd like you to have it..." he said slowly ripping the paper out of his sketch pad and held it out to her. "When I unpack I can paint you one...I promise it'd be even better."

"Well your the first Zombie I've meet. I also promise I won't take your soul." Zane chuckles and Dez joins in. "Your funny!" She smiles at him. "Y-You actually like it?" Zane asks. "Yeah its awesome!!!" Dez smiles and nods eagerly. "I'd like you to have it..." Zane says and rips the picture out of his sketch pad as he hands it out to her. "When I unpack I can paint you one...I promise it'd be even better." Zane says and Dez takes the picture. "Hey why dont i make you one... A trade... A picture of me for a picture of you!" Dez smiles and reaches into her bag, pulling out a paper and some colored pencils. She draws sharp lines and finally when she is done sprawls Dez in the bottom right corner. "Here... We can trade better pictures later... It was just a messy one... I'll do a better one next time, I promise." Dez says as she hands the picture to him. (I did indeed draw this picture.... here it is: http://imgur.com/XSk0T )

Zane's face lite up with excitment as Dezzy drew on of him and looked at the picture for a few moments, it was more artistic he thought then his own. "Agreed...better picture's later but this is still just as good." he looked over his shoulder noticing the gates were open his heart skipped a beat as this was going to be his home for the next year. "We better go!" he said putting his Sketch Book away he stood up quickly and offered Dez his own hand to help her stand up, "We don't want to be late." (sweet!....Can't draw people I don't know why)

Dez watched Zane's face light up when he saw the picture. "Agreed...better picture's later but this is still just as good." Dez smiled at his compliment. "Thanks..." she murmurs. Zane's gaze turned to the gates and Dez noticed they were open. "We better go!" Zane said, jumping to his feet. Dez nods as he puts away his sketchbook and then watches him give her his hand. Dez took it and stood up. "We don't want to be late." Zane says and Dez nods starting for the gates.

Alaric cleared his throat, watching the students leave. "All faculty come to the staff housing" he simply vanished.

Maria headed toward her dorm, already 'missing' Samson. at least, she thought she was... I mean, you're supposed to miss someone you like when you're not with them... She headed for her dorm, walking up the stairs, and sat her things down near what she figured was her bed. She started unpacking her religious items; her bible, her cross, her rosaries, the important things, when she scented the demon

^^^

William took Mavena her bags, humming a little tune, when he realized she was with her roommate "oh. sorry if ah'm disturbin' y'all..."

"Amen." As he gave the paper back to Maria, he smiled. "You know, I never did this before. My dad never sees a need for it when he preaches as pastor at the church I'd attend. It's kind of cool to experience something new."

Leviathan was having thoughts of what it may be like at his course. Would he be dealing with people with an ego? Those who have a problem with authority? A thousand thoughts entered his head at once as he stood by the dormitory doors.

((Ignore Dezzy and Zane.))

Zane stepped into his room someone had already packed by the look of it. His roommate was female. He sniffed the air and his eye's went wide, he knew that scent from the boat. The Nun lady Priestess. "nonononoononononono!" he started breathing heavily as he dropped to the ground hid under his bed. "Not her please not her! Why'd it have to be her."

Alaric leaned back at the table and yawned, stretching.
"Now that everyone is here, I'd like to talk about the security of this school and its ground.
As you could imagine; Surepath academy - as well as the whole of Crest Side - is a focal point for Mytho-terrorists.
The warding isn't as strong as I'd like it to be, so I need you all to watch out for members of a terrorist organization known as
Crete." He coughed and waved his hand, creating a three deminsional image of a large werewolf in combat armor.
"This Mytho-terrorist organization believes that the world should belong to the myths, and believes all humanity should be extinguished.
Look for anyone trying to recruit mythos students or any hostility towards the human students."
He smiled at the assembled students. "You are the best of the best, and I expect you to do a fine job." He turned to grace. "I expect you to watch the borders of
the school, but I'm calling a short Dorm Lockdown until the banquet." He smiled "Lets see how the students get along when they're stuck in the same building with no real supervision..."



Maria yawned and started to change into her night clothes, a long, white robe. though she was out of view of the demon, he could still see her clothes getting tossed away.
"Look, let's just make this easy on both of us and not have too much reaction, alright? I don't like you, and you don't like me" She sat down on her bed and curled up, yawning a little.

Attention: It is now storming.



William looked up at the sky, then suddenly yelped as sheets upon sheets of water began to pour from the sky. He jolted up and grabbed Mavena's hand. "We should head back. Ah'm not ta fond of tha rain..." He started over the beach and back into town. The streets were empty, save for a few stragglers running towards their homes in raincoats or carrying umbrellas. The gates of the school opened easily for them as a magical voice stated something about registered students.
William lead Mavena across the yard and towards the dorms and into the main building just as the doors locked behind them. the tvs in everyone's room, as well as the monitors in the hall, flooded with a message; Lockdown persists until noon

Zane shook his head, "I have n-nothing against you....other then you want me gone." he said seeing a few cloths tossed away, he sighed before going and getting changed himself in just a pair of white boxer's with red x's and o's on them and he crawled back into his bed and laid under the covers which was very uncomfortable with how much heat his body was putting out actually heating the area around his bed alittle. He just laid there staring at the small sliver of light which was actually the TV.

Zane sighed standing up from his bed and walking out of the bedroom leaving Maria, he walked into the small kitchen and started making a hot pot of tea on the stove. "Would you like one?" he said as he grabbed some milk and sugar for his tea.
