The Academy of Mystical Beings discussion

((This is going to be interesting... :-)...))

Lynnette appeared. She smiled and studied the two platforms before her. "I guess I have a choice to make." Curious, she started forward and picked up the car to study it closer. "I wonder when the game begins."

Shigeki looked around, his eyes flashing yellow in the nearly dark room. He stared at the woman in front of him, then walked up to the platform to examine the two items, starting with the fish since the woman had the car. He didnt touch anything yet.

((ah, okay))

Shigeki jumped when he heard the words spoken and looked around to see who had said it.

Vivian jumped at the noise a bit,but didn't do much else.Nothing like this happend before,so it took a while to get her senses together.

Lynnette gingerly set the car back down, turning when she heard noises behind her. "Oh, hello." She gave them both a friendly smile.

((No one will know that they don't have powers unless you tell them, Jahlia.))

((Nope, no powers. It's a Virtual Game, they don't have magical powers.))

Shigeki smiled a little and wondered just how well the others would be able to handle being humans. He so rarely used his ablities that he figured it wouldnt be that bad. "Hello...my name is Shigeki Haliatus." He said formally, giving a short bow. Though he was only six years old, he was very polite, it was how his Onee-Chan Akihito had raised him.

"I'm Lynnette." She bowed back. Not being able to see the many time planes would be interesting. It wasn't like she had any other super powers.

Shigeki straightened up and said "I wonder what kind of tasks that we will have to complete will be." he looked up at the darkness around them. "I also cannot help but wonder where the other members of our group are."

"You are quite eloquent for someone with the appearance of a young kid."

Vivan looked over at the two talking.She would be a third wheel in a way,someone unwanted in a situation like this.And the annonouncement hit her.No powers,no family,no clues.

That's what she had to work with.

"My Onee-Chan taught me to speak eloquently and politely once I started to talk. And this is no appearance. I am in actuality, a six year old." Shigeki told her.

She looked towards the other visitor. "Hello, what's your name?"

Vivian turned and saw one of the other players.Might as well,she thought.Nothing else to do but say it,they were a team after all."Vivian.That's my name.So what's yours?"

"I'm Lynnette. What brings you here to the game?"

Shigeki turned towards the other member of the team and listened in.

Darza walked over on her hind legs, her long claws on all four feet showed her strenght, a huge sword layed across her back, she wore tight armor, her tail coming from behind, her horns long and slinder, her four ear, two on each side, also thin, and costently twitching for sound. her fur is white and black, with large, messy looking black stripes

Vivan shook her head,then said,"Don't know,i guess i just wanted to know what this was like,this whole video game thing." She shrugged,then said nothing else."I thought this would be fun,and i kind of lost a bet." She said the last part as if was a dirty word.

Darza glanced around and frowned, "interesting..." she grawled, glancing around, seeing the other people

Shigeki turned around suddenly when he heard someone growl and saw Darza.

"Lost a bet? What was the bet for?" Lynnette gave Darza a casual wave.

Darza's tail twitch, and she walked over, stnading taller then them call, "ware are we exactly? this room..its strange..."

"I dont really know where we are." Shigeki answered her. "All I know is that while we are here, we will not be able to use any of our powers or abilities. Basically, we will have to complete the game as if we were human."

she nodded thoughfully

((Still missing Fletcher's charrie Jamie))

Vivian shook her head,solemly."It's not important,but if you must know,it involed one legged hopping with a drink,and whoever stopped first had to do this.Obviously,i lost." She sighed right aftre.

Darza shifted slightly, "humm..."

Shigeki looked over at Vivian again and said "I am here because my Onee-Chan worried that I didnt get out often enough."

"Ummmm...." Vivan muttered,not sure what to say.Might as well get to know the team."Well,i'm not trying to pry or anything but....What is that? And i'm here cause i lost a bet with my brother and sisters." And they might as well get to know her.

"Onee-chan is what I call my foster sister Akihito. She is basically mine and my other sister and brothers mother, but she likes it if we call her sister instead. I am one of three. me and my brother and sister are triplets." Shigeki replied

"Ohhhh." Vivian replied,sounding exactly like that."You're a triplet." She paused,then went on."How interesting,i'm a twin." That reminded her just how lonely she was without Savannah,her twin.And the rest of her brothers and sisters,and family.They got her into going in the bet in the first place,and yet she missed them so so much.Her eyes prickled,and she had to look away.

"What are all of you in real life?" Lynnette asked conversationally.

Vivan turned to Lynnette,shrugging with tears in her eyes."It's kind of hard to explain,but i controlled weather.In my family,you each control something.We're all workers in my family at a certain thing." Her tone was almost cracked,like a window breaking.Now she realized how attached she was,and it was apparent that she was so much.

Darza listened quietly

Shigeki sighed and said "I kinda miss them, my brother and sister. See, its been a while since I saw them becuase I have been busy guarding over someone. I am a werecheetah."

Vivan discreetly wiped away tears with her arm them mumbled,"That's nice,the werecheetah thing.A mix of two different things." After she was done,she muttered,"I can see that.Missing someone is a universal thing."

Shigeki nodded and said "yeah, missing is a universal thing. It can be one of the many bonds that tie all creatures together."

Vivan nodded,and said nothing more.That's all she needed to say,and all she wanted to here.In addition to feelings,missing someone is universaly felt and cannot be denyed.

Shigeki stared up at the dark sky, unable to see anything. But that didnt bother him. He was so different from other six year olds, so grown up and mature. It was something he had no choice to do because of all the things that happened in his life. He ran a hand through his shock of blonde and brown hair. He was dressed simply in a sky blue t-shirt with a picture of a lion cub on it, jean shorts, and some worn looking red tennis shoes, the shoelaces undone, the ends of it tattered and frayed. His golden-amber eyes roved restlessly around the room.

Darza shifted and looked for someware to sit

"I suppose so." Lynnette answered. "These are all that showed.

Shigeki looked up at the city around them, eyes big. "these buildings are so tall" he said in an awed voice

Lynnette raised her hand. "From the description I read of this game, this was supposed to be a team event. How come you're pitting us against each other?"

(( OH MY GOD! I AM SUCH A...... I AM SO SORRY! I KNOW I CAN"T PARTICIPATE ANYMORE!!! BUT I WANT TO SAY SORRY, I HAVE BEEN BANNED FROM GOODREADS FOR SOME TIME)))

(( Also thanks, Jahlia you made my day of hell and guilt, COMPLETE))

Fiamma sighed as she heard the task.They were being pitted against each other,and they were supposed to be a team.So much for working together.Then she heard the next part,then ohhhhed.

This was so confusing.

Darza grawled softly

Fiamma raised her hand,somewhat annoyed."So if we all work to find the person you're talking about,we leave the game?"

Darza laughed "i'll be able to smell this person easy!"

Fiamma sighed.Of coursre."Ok,i understand." she muttered,nodding.For some reason,she was more easitly irriated in this virtual reality world thatn in real life.Maybe it was the surroundings.
