Sky High discussion

It's technically a metal wall with a very concealed handle.. And so it begins..

Tori sighed softly when Emery did not reply him and he tucked his hands into his pockets, before making his way to a door which he easily found because of the sound made by the opening and closing of it. He knocked on it, waiting patiently for Emery to answer.

Emery decided to ignore the door, looking at his ceiling as he lay on his bed. He was twirling a piece of scrap metal around his finger as he continued to ignore the knocking.

He was still patient but decided to lean on the wall next to it, before manipulating the gravitational force of a tree in front of him, making it levitate and float around. No, it wasn't amusing, but at least it helped him to keep his mind off things.

Finally Emery couldn't handle ignoring and he sat up, walking towards the door and opening it, looking at Tori from the doorway.

Tori set his jaw and let the tree down, the roots firmly anchoring into the soil. "I said sorry, so I expect some sort of forgiveness," he made it short and sweet. He always had a conscience and he would go to no lengths to clear it.

Emery stayed silent, contemplating his reply. For some reason he felt that Tori was requesting a forgiveness like he was the one Emery had apologised to.

Tori couldn't stand it so he made his gaze cold, staring at Emery's eyes as well. He was pissed, definitely, but he kept it in by using his cold stare.

Unfortunately for Emery he had pretty much a scary stare due to his eye mark. He returned Tori's gaze with an empty one, but even that could send perhaps a monster running. Behind those layers of blankness there was an emotion that didn't appear often.

Tori didn't flinch, so perhaps he really was emotionless or heartless, but he wasn't. Tori let Emery's gaze bore into him, and returned his own. The two seemed to have some sort of staring contest, until Tori turned away and started to walk off again.

"Fine. You're forgiven. Is that what you want me to say?" Emery muttered, rolling his eyes.

((Do you think that Tori and Emery will have this.. enemy thing?))

((Enemy thing? As in?))

He nodded but didn't look back, and walked away into the school, back into the hallway. He didn't exactly have a house to live in, but he would buy one soon, as long as he could finish the year's part-time job.

((Something similar to Rio and Yi.. just.. less.. or more harm.. XD))

Emery walked back in, closing the door behind him where the door handle went unseen, blending in with the metal wall.

((I see.. Okay! ))

Tori walked off, barely speaking when someone greeted him. He kept his head low, and struggled not to use his powers.

(( Yesh!! This will be interesting.))

Emery walked out of his room, looking out at the window and spotting a very common villain attempt an attack.

"Emery, if you please," The headmaster's voice echoed from a speaker.

With a sigh Emery made his way outside, dodging a rather slow gunshot.

Tori saw ths person and Emery, which made him sigh even more. He raised his hand and brought it down, so the man would just fall, making the job much easier.

As usual, the villain always wore a jetpack which enabled him to fly. Seeing Tori as a distraction, he decided to get rid of him first, using lasers to shoot. Emery decided that Tori could handle himself and raised a hand, metal following his commands as it latched directly around the man which stopped him, but he did manage to shoot the roof off the school..

Tori didn't respond, and snapped his fingers. Snapping of fingers would only make a soft sound but his was manipulated to be loud, which would also manipulate the villian's mind.

With a cry of pain, the villain fell down and ended up out cold. Emery had already left, feeling his help was no longer needed as it seemed Tori was perfectly capable of handling himself.

"That was easy," he said under his breath and walked away. Somehow he was like taking the job from Emery, but he didn't know it.

"Cobalt, Kotomi, to the office if you please," The headmaster called out.

Emery stopped by his door, changing direction to the office rather glumly.

Tori walked over, wondering what was happening. As he came nearer, he made out the shape of Emery and gritted hit teeth. He pushed him aside and knocked on the door.

"What the-" Emery kept himself from falling, waiting till their approval to enter was called out. He waited till Tori walked in, walking in after him and closing the door.

((Change?))

((Can you post first?))

Emery's eyes slowly opened and he shuddered. "Ah.." He muttered as pain seared his mind.

Tori was sitting a chair, dozing off when Emery started to wake up. Yawning lightly, he said, "You're finally awake."

"Wh-What happened?" Emery asked with a groan afterwards. His head pounded and his vision had white splashes.

"I have no idea, but I got a creepy suspicion that it was done by Eli," he said calmly and continued observing Emery.

"why does he dislike me so much? I didn't do anything.. To... Him..." Emery remembered being called Creed and also being called Cobalt. They must hav also mistaken Eli as Emery and gave him punishments too.

Tori knew he could say nothing to answer because he wasn't Eli. "I can't exactly answer you that, but I can only be your listening ear," he said.

"Listening ear.. Listening ear..." Emery thought, a theory coming to him.

"What?" he asked, tilting his head to a side in question.

((Battery is critically low! Cya tomorrow!))

"A big." Emery looked around before finally spotting something that definitely didn't belong. A button with the insignia of a magic circle on it.

"A bug..." he repeated. Then he saw the thing and his eyes widened, "I can make it such that our conversation were not heard, since I have those sound powers..."

"No, it won't work.." Emery sighed.

"Right..." he nodded and made a disappointed face, chewing on his lip to think of a solution.

"Eli.." Emery sighed, lying down on his bed.

"What did you do to make him hate you so much?" he asked.

"I don't know.." Emery shook his head, staring at the ceiling with one eye since the other eye was covered by hair.

"Then me neither," he said and looked at the place. "Oh yea, are you feeling better? From just now I mean," he asked.

"Just felt like I got fried, otherwise, I'm fine." Emery shrugged, blinking for a moment to clear some more blotchy spots in his vision.

He laughed, "Wow. Fried." That was new. "So what do us protectors of the school do?" he asked, wondering if he needed to attend lessons.

"You still need lessons.. I don't." Emery grinned, looking at Tori.

"That is bad..." he said, sulking. "I hate studying," he told Emery.

((Natsu?))

"I'll see if I can convince the principal if you'd like. An do you have a place to stay in? If you don't I can get the principal to assign you a room." Emery offered calmly.

He thought for a moment, "Well, I certainly would like not to study and also, I was intending to buy a house but I'm not sure of my money so I'll need you to help me talk to the principle about it, thanks a lot!" Who would have known that two people who were ready to glare each other down earlier were already helping each other out.

"But this doesn't mean we're buddies." Emery said, getting up and heading directly to the office, his mind going blank without any emotion.

"I never said we were," he said with slight amusment. Tori follow Emery, hands tucked in his pockets and head down to avoid others, as usual.

Emery's eyes were cold, holding their usual emotion which was nothing at all. He reached the door and pushed it open, not holding the door for Tori.
