The Active Profile

Image

Active Type
Bound

Type Detail

She will be bound to Dante Jones, but will not know it until she meets him officially. She cannot speak, she has never been able to speak, as far as anyone knows she is a mute, but she will be able to speak once she is bound. Adya has the power to hypnotize people through playing the piano, if there is a piano nearby beware. Once in the hypnotized state, the person becomes paralyzed inside their mind able to hear, see, and feel everything going on around them, but unable to do anything about it. She doesn’t have to touch the piano to play it, she can control the keys of the piano with her mind.


Character’s Thoughts
Being Hunted:
I was too young to remember what it was like to be hunted, but I’m well aware of what it’s like hearing the stories from all of the Actives who have come through the doors of Sayco Manor over the year, it sounds less then pleasant and I wish they would stop hunting us.
Arthur Sayco:
He’s my father, well not by blood but in every other sense of the word he is. I owe him everything, he gives so much and asks nothing in return, he is truly a hero in my eyes, anyone who thinks otherwise obviously know nothing about him. I could listen to his stories forever, he has the most interesting stories about war, love, and everything else. I just wish he wasn’t so protective, then again he has good reason to be.
The Bleeders:
Bringing up bad memories for all of us, I don’t remember much about my first encounters with of course I was only a child. But, the Bleeders who stop in at Mr. Saycos every now and then are wicked men, dressed in all black with their shinny guns, always threating father, waving their guns around as if they actually have sway in our home. They are terrible excuses for human beings.
Humans:
In all honesty I’ve never meet a human, besides the Bleeders. I just know that father isn’t fond of them and he tells me they are no better than the bleeders, they just choose not to participate in slaying our kind. So as far as I’m concerned their just as evil as the Bleeders, they just seem to sugar coat things.



Digging up the Past



Image
Personality
Being raised by a southern man, Arcadya is very polite and well-mannered while around others. Though she doesn’t exactly like being a well-mannered young lady. If it was up to her, she’d be a wild child. Due to the fact that she can’t communicate through speech as a normal person would she tends to be withdrawal from everyone and she tends to stay to herself more or less because she feels out of place, even with her own kind. But, don’t mistake her withdrawn, loneness as being shy, she’s not at all shy. In fact those who know her well say there kind of glad she can’t talk, because she’s a little spit fire. She is able to communicate with very few people, Arthur being one of them, she is able to communicate with him through touch due to the father, daughter bond they have. If she is touching him she can speak to him. The only other person they know of that she can communicate with is one of her close friends Jayce, she can communicate with him if she puts him under her hypnoses. Arthur believes this is due to the fact that Jayce has a similar ability.

Adya absolutely adores playing the piano, it is where you will find her most of the time. If she could talk she would tell you, she plays the piano because it blocks out the millions of thoughts in her head. She’s honestly surprised she hasn’t gone insane yet, seeing as most the time the only person she has to talk to is herself. Adya doesn’t talk about her past, ever. She lets people believe that she is Arthurs real daughter, the only people that know of her past are Arthur and Nathan. She believes that if they knew who her father was they would treat her differently. Adya can be sweet or she can be sour, it all really depends on her mood. She can have quite the sassy attitude and hates taking orders from anyone aside from Arthur. Needless to say, she can be a handful. After all she is the daughter of a Bleeder.

Image

History
Arcadya was the product of a forbidden love affair. Her mother Cadence an Active, Spirit-walker, her father part of the very organization sworn to kill The Active, her father, Derrick Shadows, one of the very best Bleeders. He had a reputation for being brutal when it came to the active. Yet when it came to Cadence he was in love with her. Soon the young women became pregnant by the well-known Bleeder and Derrick was able to hide her for five years, he kept his lover and daughter safe, but his haply ever after soon ended. Somehow the Bleeders had found out. Derrick hid Arcadya, but Cadence wasn’t so lucky. Derrick had one choice kill his lover and remain a Bleeder or they would kill her and he would go to prison. Five year old Arcadya watched from under the bed as her father brutally murdered her mother.

After the bleeders left, Derrick found Arcadya asleep under the bed, her cheeks stained with tears. At that moment he wanted to kill himself. He had to take his daughter away from all of this, he knew the one man that could help, Arthur Sayco. He took Arcadya to Sayco Manor, Arthur welcomed the two with open arms, even though Derrick was a bleeder, Arthur knew something was very wrong. With a simple pat on Arcadya’s head and a flash of memories, Derrick didn’t have to explain anything, because Arthur already knew. After a long discussion, Arthur agreed to take the little girl in and raise her as his own. After tucking his daughter in and giving her a bitter sweet kiss goodbye on the forehead, Derrick Shadows disappeared into the darkness, leaving his baby girl in the care of the very creature he vowed to rid the world of.

Arthur raised the girl, calling her Adya and giving her his last name so the bleeders would not suspect. Adya had blocked out the bad memories from her mind. She knew Arthur wasn’t her real father, but as far as she was concerned he was. She didn’t hate her father, Arthur had made sure that she didn’t resent him. Arthur had known Adya was an Active from the very moment he’d seen her, despite the fact that she couldn’t speak he was able to communicate with her, when other couldn’t. Everyone wondered why she couldn’t speak, Arthur would defend her saying she simply hadn’t grown into her voice yet. It wasn’t till her early teen years that she learned about her ability to put others in a hypnotic state as well as the fact that she could play a piano without touching it.

Syrus did not wake up gracefully, when he became conscious enough to remember someone stuffing a rag over his face he flailed his arms and legs, causing him to roll off of the bed in a tangle of fancy bed sheets, effectively taking a lamp from the bedside table with him, he was able to catch it before it broke however. "I was kidnapped.....by someone very rich it seems." He says to himself after observing the lamp and the room he was in. After a minute of fussing with the sheets he was able to untangle himself and stand up, placing the sheets on the bed in a lump and returning the fancy lamp to its rightful place.

He walks over to the window and see's the Mansion he is in is surrounded by forest and that he is on the second floor of the building. Syrus looks down on the desk by the window and spots a folded piece of paper lying on the desk. Syrus picks it up and unfolds the paper and reads it quickly.

Morning to you all,
I’m sure you’re all wondering what the hell is going on. I can answer all your questions if you join me in the dining hall for breakfast. It would not be wise to run or try and leave. I would greatly enjoy your company.
Yours Truly
Arthur Ford Sayco

I was Kidnapped by Arthur Sayco... A very rich and powerful man, rich and powerful tends to mean ties to The Saviors and The Saviors mean Bleeders... Syrus thinks to himself "Well isn't that dandy." He says with a sarcastic roll of his eyes. But... if He is in league with the bleeders my throat would already be cut open and i would be on public display, or i'd be tied up in some dark, dank place with a bag over my head, so i guess i'll go see what he wants.

Syrus walks over to the door and opens the door. Even though the note said to go to the dining hall, he was still surprised to see the door is unlocked. He leans out into the hallway and looked left then right, seeing no one he walked out and took a random guess and headed right. This could be a really bad idea, i should just jump out the window and run, not like my bones will break and i run faster than most people so i could get away...maybe. When i get there i'll just find a place near the window for a quick escape. He comes to a stair case and can hear the faint majestic noise of the piano, Syrus wasn't close enough to make out the piece, but anyone who listened to piano couldn't be entirely evil.

He walked down the stairs and followed the music through a large number of rooms filled with expensive furniture. I haven't seen a single soul, why would he need so many chairs and couches? Does he get bored of one room so quickly he has to have a large variety to choose from? As he was making his way through another room he heard yelling from upstairs, someone was very upset which got Syrus questioning just how many people did Arthur kidnap? As he fought his way through the maze of overly furnished rooms he finally makes it to a hallway where he see's someone standing through the doorway into the Dining room. “Is that Chopin? I love this piece! Oh, I assume one of you are mine and my sister’s kidnappers? I have to say, a nice bed, breakfast and Chopin? This is perhaps the nicest kidnapping fiasco I’ve ever been involved in.” Ha i was right! Syrus thinks to himself It WAS Chopin Since the man hasn't been jumped by now Syrus assumed it was safe to go in, He walks right past two girls standing in the hallway and Syrus assess that they have also been Kidnapped. "Good morning fellow abductees." He says as he walks past them into the Dining Hall where he see's the room is full of people. "Good morning abductors." He says to the people already seated around the table.

Mr. Sayco watched quietly at the head of the table as Active after Active filed through the door, most of them pretty calm about the situation, others not exactly happy and he didn’t blame them. The only thing they knew about him was what most people knew, He was an Active and The Bleeders didn’t touch him, most assumed he was powerful and selfish. He didn’t speak, as if he wasn’t there he simply watched the other, even when they spoke directly to him he did not answer, he was almost statuesque. Then finally once he had accounted for everyone, but Rose who he had seen sprint from the room, he glanced up to Edward, his head butler who stood next to the door and gestured for him to go and find her.

“Your sending the old man, I got this Edward, That girl is a maniac.” Maxwell said as he got up to go after Rose, shutting the door of the dining hall behind him as he left.

Without a word Mr. Sayco stood and the chaos in the room seemed to pause. Even the Mentors themselves seemed unaware of his next move and that was the brilliant thing about Arthur, he was unpredictable in the most predictable way. He looked over the group once more, before opening his mouth to speak.

“I realize that all of you are confused, I also realize that most of you do not trust me and I understand Why. I would like to start first by saying all of you are safe here, no one will harm you here, I will not allow it.” He spoke that last words sternly a promise he intended on keeping. “I’m sure you are all aware of who I am, but if you are not I am Arthur Ford Sayco, the owner of Sayco Manor and Sayco Wheat Co.” He spoke in a way that drew people in, there was a charm to his voice that was alluring. “I’m sure you’re asking yourself why in the world was I kidnapped, but be honest with yourselves, had you simply been asked to join Mr. Sayco “The Selves bastard, in the mansion on the outskirts of the city” you wouldn’t have come, you would have thought it was a setup a trap. There for kidnapping you was necessary.” He gave informed them, with the smallest hint of a smirk. “as for the reasoning behind why I have gather you all, I intend to train you all help you better control your gifts, then when the time is right we will make the Bleeders pay for what they have done to you all and your families, We are going to make the New Age an Active age, I will no longer allow my family to be treated as a pest a lower class.” He spoke the words as if reciting a pledge, there was no doubting his passion stained words.

The room was silent, as Arthur mad his way to the door and opened it, turning back to the group and stepping aside as Nathan walked inside the dining hall, loyal standing next to his longtime friend, depicting he was no longer concentrated on the force field to keep them in, not that they knew.

“If you do not wish to stand with me and fight for the freedom that is rightfully yours, you can leave, I am not holding you hostage, nor will I force you to put your life on the line if you are not willing.” He said honestly. “But, I promise for those of you who do fight I will protect you with my dying breath.” His blue eyes making eye contact with every single person in the room, every single word he spoke was laced with honor, loyalty, and promise.

Adya wasn’t exactly sure what was going on all though she had overheard something about this a week or so ago. She wasn’t exactly the friendliest with strangers, mostly because they always seemed to look at her like she was dying of cancer just because she couldn’t speak. As Active after Active entered the dining hall she seemed to realize that her father was putting together something, she had a bad feeling about this, but she would never question him, he always seem to know what he was doing.

She smiled when Jayce hugged her from behind and said good morning, of course she couldn’t ask back, not unless she went through the long process of hypnotizing him first, which didn’t exactly seem appropriate. When he asked if she was confused she simply offered a nodded. There was so much chaos she wished she could just yell at everyone to relax and cam the fuck down, she sighed to herself.

These people are fucking insane, what the hell is wrong with The New Age she thought to herself I’m glad I’ve stayed here all these years God knows how I would have turned out. she smirked a bit at the thought.

Then her eyes caught sight of a young man her age, the most amazing guy she had ever seen and she had seen a lot of guys over the years. From humans, to bleeders, to other Active, people were always in and out of the Manor, but he, he was different stunning.

Who was he? she thought.
She had never really wished that she could talk she had never been able to and she knew she’d never be able to so she had stopped wishing and dreaming about it a long time ago, but now more than ever she wished she could talk. She frowned gently, though pulling her eyes away from his perfection as her father stood to speak.

Syrus watches as one of the men seated at the table goes after the girl who was trying to run away. When Arthur starts to speak, Syrus listens. He certainly is Charismatic Syrus thought as he listened to the speech. When he concluded his speech by saying how he won't keep us here he tilts his head in puzzlement. "A very warming speech." Syrus says as he scratches his head. "But if you really meant that you won't keep us here, why did you send that man after the girl who thought it best to run?" Syrus asks. "I don't mean to step on your hospitality but i don't think you would go through all the trouble to bring us here, then say if we want to we can leave even though you just sent someone to go after that girl." Syrus says. "You may just want to tell her what you just said yourself, but if she can leave of her own will, why chase her down?" Syrus was taught to question everything, especially when they do not make sense. "I hope you'll forgive me for being so blunt."

Syrus was on the edge about Arthur Sayco, Syrus could feel deep inside him the honesty the man spoke, but he cannot be so blind to contradictions. What was the point of bringing them here then saying they could all leave? A false sense of freedom? A claim to choice that may be limited? Syrus couldn't figure it out but he wasn't about to leave, this is the nicest place ever and it had real beds with pillows and pianos, not to mention food and like minded people. Another thing that was on Syrus' mind was what would happen after they they bring about this 'Active Age' what will we do to prove to the humans that we arent evil or should be feared? Syrus hopes things don't get bad for the Regular Humans...

#, as written by Deguu
Sophia heard the name 'Sayco', and felt as though she had been kicked in the stomach by a mule. Sayco. Her head reeled and her world went black.

What had happened last night? She had been grabbed. Chloroform. Sayco. Her mind reeled as she lapsed into one of her minor blackouts. Her head fell back against the chair she was sat on, and her knuckles turned white as she clutched the table.

What the hell happened last night?

So she had been taken, and stolen. It was like the opposite of when she had left home. Mother. Father. Sister. Stranger. They were all connections. Friends. Family. Stranger. Her mind was a whirl as she thought this through. Stolen. Escaped. Trapped. As always. Nowhere to run. He claimed that she was safe. Was she? Red lights. Don't walk. Don't run by the side of the pool. Pool like luxury, like this manor. Like Sayco. But it hadn't been Sayco to catch her. Dark figures. Shadows. Alley. Dirty. Not clean like this table. Not like Sayco. Different people. One rich, one poor. Rich, is money. Money is payment. Payment for capture. Kidnapped. Stolen. Why? Sayco says training. Training. Sister was bound. Black. Black memory. Years passed. Aged. Darkness. Active? Active needs training. Like football. Like sports. Train to get better. To be safe. Black. Pain. Headache. Wrong. This darkness is wrong. Needs safety. Training. Sayco. Trust. Other people. Trust. Training.Stay.

And with that headache causing blackout, she found herself gasping for breath, after an unknowable time had passed by, but she had made her decision. Sophia wouldn't risk going into another bout of that blackout by changing it now.

Jessica stood close and simply stared as the events unraveled, she waited and watched as the others arrived to the dinner table.
She saw a boy with a long dark hair arriving at the scene, demanding for answers and apologizing for his friend beforehand, moments later a blonde girl stormed in like a mad woman, “"Would somebody care to tell me exactly what the fuck is going on before I kick somebody's ass?!", Jessica rolled her eyes in annoyance and laughed 'Well this is going to be fun. It seems like we've got a loud one in the group
' Soon after, another woman passed through the same doors Jess had minutes before. She seemed on the high alert, 'just don’t be another loud one please
' Jess thought as a silent petition, the girl ran like crazy, to the nearest exit or who knows where, while Jessica’s eyes followed her in surprise 'Yup, there’s going to be no room for boredom here' she finally smiled at herself. A girl followed after, wearing a grey track-suit bottom that made Jess wonder what she was doing before she was abducted.

Minutes passed and another girl appeared, a shy girl that moved in hesitation speaking almost as if in fear, “Excuse me...Mr. Sayco? I'm Sophia Hart...Am I in the right place?". Jessica smiled, 'and we have a shy one as well
' she thought, making another obvious observation.

It was then when Mr. Sayco had finally decided to explain himself, “I realize that all of you are confused, I also realize that most of you do not trust me and I understand Why. I would like to start first by saying all of you are safe here, no one will harm you here, I will not allow it. I’m sure you are all aware of who I am, but if you are not I am Arthur Ford Sayco, the owner of Sayco Manor and Sayco Wheat Co.” Jess listened carefully to every word as he continued, “I’m sure you’re asking yourself why in the world was I kidnapped, but be honest with yourselves, had you simply been asked to join Mr. Sayco, you wouldn’t have come, you would have thought it was a setup a trap. There for kidnapping you was necessary. As for the reasoning behind why I have gather you all, I intend to train you all help you better control your gifts, then when the time is right we will make the Bleeders pay for what they have done to you all and your families, We are going to make the New Age an Active age, I will no longer allow my family to be treated as a pest a lower class.” Jess was pleased and kept calm at Sayco’s speech, 'He sure lives up to his name I suppose'. Jess felt at ease, after all she could use any help she could get to finally use her powers and be able to gain her revenge. 'Indeed they will pay the double of what they actually deserve. Lower class huh?
 you can say that again.'

Jessica expected someone to talk or to give other response before she ever did, but was caught off guard when a man spoke with concern, “A very warming speech. But if you really meant that you won't keep us here, why did you send that man after the girl who thought it best to run? I don't mean to step on your hospitality but I don't think you would go through all the trouble to bring us here, then say if we want to we can leave even though you just sent someone to go after that girl. You may just want to tell her what you just said yourself, but if she can leave of her own will, why chase her down?” 'Good point stranger, but don’t forget their on our side
' Jess finally thought to herself secretly wishing that Sayco would answer efficiently.

Later on a young male entered the room with two older butlers grabbing each an arm of the young guy. She chuckled at the sight of the boy who suddenly turned invisible, he somewhat reminded her of her brother who had the same ability, if he would have been there with her he would have joined him showing off being the cocky lad that he was. And then a girl spoke, more like abruptly blurted out “What use is walking through people's dreams against the bleeders?" 'another dream walker!' Jessica felt a jolt of joy travel through her body, almost making her jump out of her seat, knowing that she had the same power. However, she felt hurt hearing her unrewarding and taking for granted her own power in such way, almost as if she was also offending Jessica herself.
Before Sayco had any change to talk either to the boy who had a good point, or to the girl who questioned her own skills another man walked. He began by introducing himself first saying that he had lived there for a while and explaining his point of view, “It's really simple, if you want to be treated like a second class citizen and hunted for the rest of your life, just walk out that damn door. BUT! If you want to be free, if you want to be able to live your life without looking over your god damn shoulder every five minutes, well then you better stay. So you over there, mister, 'question everything' ya got two choices, you can leave or you shut the fuck up and start being grateful for the people who are gonna give you your god damn freedom." 'Finally someone talking some clear sense', Jess remembered her father who wanted the same thing, nothing else but freedom and equality for everyone.

After the speech of the outspoken man sunked in with everyone, the girl with the comfy clothes took her turn and spoke her mind up, "If this place is really safe. I will stay. You'll need me if you're going to bring down the saviour empire, but I will not promise my participation. I will not risk my neck for this dream, not yet." Her voice was somewhat covered by the friendly fellows that had to be brothers, it seemed like the boy was blind and his 'sister?' was helping him figure out what was what, or more like who’s who. Jessica heard their conversation confused at their strange scoring, 'so I’m four huh?'.

Another female voice could be heard
 barely, "I'm staying” apparently it was the young girl, or as the strange/fun brothers would say, the “twelve year old wanting chocolate”. She spoke a bit louder now explaining herself, “For your information, I am seventeen. But you were close!” 'Cute' Jessica thought for a moment smiling at the sight of her playful grin. "I’m Aurora". Jess smiled at the young girl realizing that her name was the first name she had heard of the newcomers.


It was then when her eyes turned back to the boy she had seen before. Wishing she could decipher his name, and wishing that she had the power to read minds not only to discover his name but what was going on his mind. She turned her gaze at the boy with the beautiful eyes, noticing him stuttering with the girl that he had hugged before, fiddling and playing with his spoon. Jess chuckled finding the boy to be distracting and amusing. Her cheeks turned red at the sight of his smile, she starred into his eyes and for a moment it seemed as if his eyes reflected hers, his gaze was on hers now after he spoke enthusiastically, “Welp, I dunno about you guys, but that seems like more than enough questions, concerns, and general malarkey for now. We can all chat and learn stuff and begin the new age later. All that really matters is that you're safe here and... I'm hungry! Mr. Sayco can we eat now? You promised there would be breakfast and I've got a craving for waffles like nobody's business.” It was then when Jess stomach growled angrily, for a moment she had forgotten all about her hunger, embarrassed to the core she hoped that nobody, specially not her lovely blue eyes, witnessed her stomach’s loud cry.

Without a doubt this whole magical reunion was by far one of the most entertaining things that Jessica had witnessed in a long time. Knowing that she would spend time with other active’s made her feel joy deep inside, although she wouldn't admit it to herself. Even better, the idea of learning more about the boy whose eyes met hers briefly made her feel feel anxious and exited.


OOC: Oh Wow, was that a big post.... sorry about that, I wanted to do a recap of everything that has happened so far and I wanted to give my character's point of view on everyone. Hope that's ok (:

Mr. Sayco stayed calm despite the chilling and threating phone conversation he had just finished. He glanced up seeing a pretty young blonde already knowing her name, though the door was only slightly cracked open. “You should know," he heard the girl speak "I don't care how powerful you are, I'm not afraid of you." A small understanding smile painted his lips “Kila, I would never expect you to fear me. In fact I expected you to be the one to strike fear in the others.” He smirked “Come in?” he offered but before the girl could come in he heard a knock and Nathan’s younger brother entered sitting before him. He listened to him speak, before putting up his hand in a very gentlemanly manor, so that he could speak. Glancing back up to the blonde who seemed hesitate to enter.

“Joshua, Kila he nodded to each of them. The reason I have chosen who I have whether or not your powers are fully developed is the fact that you all have passion, anger, love and a drive. Older Actives are set in there way, they will not easily bend and there are very few older active left in this world.” What you see her at Sayco manor all of the Mentors, they are really the only ones of their generation left.” He sighed in healing the smoke from his cigar. “Why would they fight, for something they feel they have already lost long ago. You guys are young, you have your whole lives ahead of you to be free.” He said the passion in his voice was raw, he really wanted this for them. “You all deserve life, families, freedom.” He glanced to Kila, before glancing back to Joshua “And, this army of kids achieve anything, if and only if, they want it bad enough.” His southern accent was thick in the silence.

Adya hadn’t noticed the dark haired boy that was now watching her, to lost in her anger thoughts, but that same uncontrollable need to want to be near him began to take over once again. She couldn’t understand it, she didn’t even know him. She was smart enough to know he had to be near, that was the only time she felt that way, when he was near her. A wicked smile came to her face, as the thought of hypnotizing him crossed her mind, but then she decided against it. If her dad found out she had done that to a guest she’d be in a lot of trouble. Instead she changed the tune of her music to something more inviting and friendly. She wasn’t exactly welcoming to strangers but something about him was different.

This was a sign to anyone that they could now interrupt her if they wanted to. She glanced see someone just outside the door, she knew it was him and her heart pounded a bit faster, but she stayed calm. This time she played the piano with her fingers this time, instead of her mind. She looked right at him this time giving him a smile. With her head she gestured him to come in, although once he figured out she couldn’t speak he’d more than likely fell sorry for her like everyone else. She sighed at the thought glancing back down at the keys as she played the beautiful melody waiting to see if her secret admire would come out of hiding.

As he spoke, Jayce couldn't help but lock eyes with the blonde girl from before. Her eyes were the perfect combination of blue and green. Her eyes reminded Jayce of the sea. He'd only been there once, a brief moment in the time between when he'd left his own home and when he'd come to Sayce Manor. Still, he would never forget that precise shade, that playful mix of blue and green. As he finished speaking, he smiled at everyone, making sure to wink at blondie across the table from him, a playful smile blinking into existence before his expression was replaced with a more respectful one. As he sat, Jayce turned his attention to Mr. Sayco, his eyes alone speaking novels of his respect for Arthur Sayco.

Arther Sayco stood almost perfectly still as questions were shouted and accusations were thrown in his direction. He never wavered from his calm, stoic posture, he was like a statue. His will was iron; unbreakable. As the chatter died down, and people began to follow Jayce's example of quiet attention, Mr. Sayco finally moved. Though he stood still, his eyes inspected the room. His head barely moved as he looked at every individual in the room; studying each and every one of them with utmost scrutiny. Then he spoke once more. “I will no longer spend any more time on this matter, I have answered the question of why you are here, the way you feel about me I cannot control. I will not justify myself anymore today.” His thick accent was stern and fatherly, but it held no disrespect for the people who sat before him.

"For those of you who have made up your minds and are going to be staying, Sayco Manor is your home, the room you awoke in is yours. The grounds of Sayco manor are completely safe, you may use your gift without consequence. But, I cannot protect you off of the grounds. I will be in my office, please make yourself at home, you are no longer a stranger." He gave one last smile before he promptly left the room, heading off to, from what Jayce could make of the sound of his footsteps, his office. He must have had a lot on him mind.

As soon as Mr. Sayco finished speaking, Ayda stood up and left the room. She had a look on her face that was all too familiar to Jayce. It told him not to bug her and to give her a hug once she was finished playing her piano. Jayce sighed and dug into his breakfast. The others might have wanted to run around like chickens with detachable heads, but Jayce wasn't having any of it. Waffles came first, everything else could wait four minutes. Luckily for everyone else, it did take only four minutes. Though he ate quickly, his trademark smirk showing through hurried bites of delicious mapley goodness, Jayce did not eat sloppily. He was in a rush, because he had some things he'd like to discuss with blondie, but that didn't mean to turn into a slob to get there quicker. Jayce ate with nearly flawless manners, oft utilising his napkin and handling his fork and knife with utter surety and poise. Once he was finished, he picked up his plate, walked through the doors to the kitchen and bussed his dishes so chef wouldn't have to. "Thanks chef!" Jayce called over the general hubbub of the kitchen clatter, "Those waffles were delicious!"

As he exited the kitchen, instead of walking to his own seat, Jayce had a better idea. His smirk split his face and he clapped his hands together, loud enough to make a solid smack but not so loud as to be overly disruptive. As he walked over to the chair where blondie was, Jayce's face took on a new expression. He smiled wide, like a child, and kneeled down as he approached her chair. He rested his arms on the arm rest, and his chin atop his arms. He smiled once more, catching her attention. He smiled wide, getting her to giggle. She was so pretty. "It should almost be criminal, I can hardly focus... remember... your lines are..." Jayce's inner voice screamed as he opened his mouth and spoke.

"Hi! So, you're new here, huh? I've lived here for a while, and since you're new, I figured I might do ya a favor. Once you're finished with your breakfast, because it's an important meal and waffles are delicious, would you do me the impeccable honor of accompanying me around the grounds? I feel like talking a walk and you're new so we both get something out of the deal. Sound good?" Jayce asked, the wide, childlike smile still beaming off of his face. Once she was finished, Jayce stood and offered her his hand, to help her out of her chair. "Shall we?" he asked suavely, making a silly face and gesturing out the door.

Though Jayce appeared calm, collected, and entirely in control, he was sweating bullets. 'What if she hates me? What if she says no? I'll look like such an idiot! Calm down, calm down, you're in control here. The fact that she might deny you in front of all these people means nothing. You're a big boy. You can take it. Hopefully..." Jayce mentally panicked.

Jessica remained quiet in her seat, observing everything with outmost detail, almost as if she was studying everyone and everything around her, trying to discover as much as she could without getting a headache. However, her perfect concentration was shattered as soon as her eyes meet the stunning blue eyes, mixed with a beautiful green shade of the boy who was able to make Jess forget what she was thinking of in the first place. She starred at his eyes for a while in wonder, somehow his glare was able to make Jess feel alive and excited. Jess was somewhat fearful of his revealing eyes that made her feel strange, yet at the same time curious.

His eyes moved from hers for a moment as he smiled at everyone, meanwhile Jess couldn't stop starring at the boy with eyes full of wonder and was caught off guard as soon as he winked his eye playfully and soon after changing his expression to a more respectful one. She moved her eyes suddenly in embarrasment realizing she had been ogling the boy far more than needed and was caught off with red cheeks boiling in red color. What is wrong with me? she asked before she scolded herself for a brief moment. She shook her head for a moment as a reprimand to herself but was distracted again by none other than Arthur Sayco.

Once again, the man with a perfect composure remained calm even when people were throwing him accusations and understadably, untrusting looks. Jessica stood even more quiet this time, studying his every movements, and waiting for him to make his next move. Mr. Sayco finally moved, not his body but his eyes instead. His eyes moved carefully eying everyone in the room, he spoke again. “I will no longer spend any more time on this matter, I have answered the question of why you are here, the way you feel about me I cannot control. I will not justify myself anymore today." He said with his thick accent that sounded most fatherly, and Jessica couldn't help but remember her father, seeing this man's eyes that told he was speaking nothing but truth, yet she wondered if he was holding something out as her father did more than once.

"For those of you who have made up your minds and are going to be staying, Sayco Manor is your home, the room you awoke in is yours. The grounds of Sayco manor are completely safe, you may use your gift without consequence. But, I cannot protect you off of the grounds. I will be in my office, please make yourself at home, you are no longer a stranger." he said before he left the room. Jess had so many questions, and the one that mattered to her the most was whether if Arthur knew her missing father, and if he knew where he was. Even so, Jessica observed as some of them left the room and without second thought she decided to wait for the right moment to speak with him, after all she didn't want anyone else to know of her personal matters.

Jessica decided to wait despite her anxiousness and only focus on her breakfast. Even though her head was still a mess because of the drugs, and she was not as hungry, her stomach growling told her otherwise. Finally she thought to dig in the breakfast planning on eating everything except the juice, somehow she was not feeling like drinking orange juice and instead asked for some water. Before her water arrived though, she turned her eyes once again to the boy with the dark hair and saw him leaving his seat moving towards what seemed to be the kitchen. Jessica remained in her seat, distracting herself by once again observing everyone else at the table. The fierce girl from before was not there, and some others had already headed out... somewhere.

Suddenly she heard a noise, more like a clap, and turned around to see the same boy coming towards her. She starred at him and saw him smiling with a wide smile that made Jess feel all warm and fuzzy. He kept smiling at her and she couldn't help but to smile back, and then he kneeled down resting his wide arms on the arm rests letting his chin on top of his arms. She was speechless at his carefree demeanor and at his charming smile, he had all her attention, suddenly she couldn't help but to giggle at his captivating smile. Now that he was even more up close, she adventured into his eyes. so... handsome her mind slipped a thought.

"Hi! So, you're new here, huh? I've lived here for a while, and since you're new, I figured I might do ya a favor. Once you're finished with your breakfast, because it's an important meal and waffles are delicious, would you do me the impeccable honor of accompanying me around the grounds? I feel like talking a walk and you're new so we both get something out of the deal. Sound good?" the boy asked smiling like a child, she giggled once again before she answered changing her face to a serious one "Actually..." she paused for a moment, "I already finished eating" she said smiling, even though she had barely eaten anything as she was waiting for her water oh well, I suppose if they bring the water, they'll just leave it here. Truth was she could care less about what was on the menu for the moment being, "And walking sounds good, I guess I could use some fresh air." She said trying to sound cool.

He smiled offering his hand, "shall we? he asked after making a silly face that once again brought a smile to Jess face. She grabbed his hand carefully, sending sparks through her fingertip as his hand felt warm and reassuring. Please don't fall she begged to herself. She looked at his eyes standing up carefully without leaving his eyes she finally said "lead the way" giving him a tempting smile.
