Fire
Before he knew it, Julian walked right into a girl. "Ouch.." he said, rubbing his head. He looked to the girl, mumbling, "...Are you...Okay...?"
"...Sorry..." he mumbled, continuing down the hallway after staring at her for a few moments. She...doesn't know right? I hope not...
kat sighed and walked down the hall grabbing a bag she had dropped... and of course it was her heaviest she dragged it towards her room
Julian looked back at the girl he just ran into, now dragging her bag towards her room. Swiftly he came up to her and asked if she needed any help.
kat looked at him "uh... sure i guess. this bag is really heavy and my room is right over there..." she pointed
Julian nodded, picking up her bag with ease and walking it towards her room where she pointed. All that farm work sure came of use to him, but his light purple hair in his red eyes was making it difficult. Nevertheless, he placed the bag inside her room.
He nodded, feeling a bit shy, keeping his head down, "...No problem... ...Bye."He excited her room and headed for his a few doors down. Surely his orchid would be famished for his homemade soil.
kat sighed and closed her door... no one really seemed tto hang around her for more than five minutes...
Walking into his room, Julian noticed that there was a note on his bed. Strange...he was sure he locked the door...Opening the note, he stared wide-eyed at the words: Nice plant ya got there. You'd better come to the pool and get it, earth user, or else it'll drown...
-M
Quickly he jumped down to look under his bed; the orchid was gone. Cursing he, bolted out of his room past the girl and into the hallway, only to trip over his own untied shoe and skid on his face. He groaned.
kat didnt catch the guy's name... and she needed to ask him or some paper she walked over to the dorm she saw him walk into and knocked on the door
Julian started to get up, rubbing his face, and turning into his room. He didn't realize that he dropped the crumpled note. "Uh...Julian Odell...and you..?" He tried to look for some paper.
Julian's red eyes grew wide as he turned around to see Kat pick up his note. Horrified he tried to reach out for it. "Crap-!" he swore.
kat read it "looks like someone took your plant... i'll help you get it back if you want..." kat said
Julian's expression darkened as he went to sit on the bed, arms dangling over his knees. He felt defeated. "Yeah...but I'll still have to repack my things..." he smirked sadly at her. He just noticed how lovely her long, dark hair was. Too bad he won't be able to see it again.
His insides perked up, but he eyed her with narrowed eyes. "...You...You won't tell anyone...?" Was she really going to let him off the hook? When he was with his ruffians, other people would do anything to get him in trouble, and, right there in her hand, was the key to ruining his life here.
For the first time in a while...Julian actually smiled at her, taking the note she handed him back. "...Nah, no reason..." He couldn't stop smiling. Giving her the piece of paper she asked for, he said, "...Well, I'm going to go get my...plant...So if you want to come then by all means."He started to walk out the door.
kat wondered why he was smiling so big all of a sudden... but she wanted to see what happened so she followed
Quickly like he expected, Julian's smile faded into his usual blank expression as he made his way towards the pool. Whoever played this sick joke was going to pay......with FIRE.
While walking towards his room, Julian tripped and fell on his face, holding up the potted orchid with his hands.Yep. He was definitely reverting back to his usual self.
...Soooo not cool....
"..." He began to get up, ignoring the red mark on his face, "...Because my entire life lacks coordination."
"...You could say that..." he mused allowed, "...but after the seventieth fall, that doesn't really pose as a good explanation.... ...." He dusted off the orchid.
kat shrugged "so does your orchid have a name... since you can obviously talk to plants?" she looked at the beautiful flower
"Lana.... Her name is Lana....she seemed to like it." Without his help, the orchid opened its bud once more for the girl. Julian made a friend.
"...She seems to like you too..." he smiled down at the purple orchid, reading her thoughts.
Julian laughed, "Yeah. she's happy I made a friend that's not an adult-er reeeeeeeally old, i guess." He smirked at her, "I am too."Lana waved gently in Kat's direction.
kat smiled "well im glad i made a friends too... most people think 'goth' and walk away when they see me..."
Julian raised an eyebrow, confused a bit, "...'Goth'?... What's that? Is it a name of a gang?" Since he only knew of other gangs, many social terms were...unknown to him. He's never even heard of bullying, just fighting, lighting fires....Would Pyro be a term then...? He just didn't know.
Julian quickly adverted his eyes, a bit frustrated that he didn't know. "...I just thought... From where I come from..." he glanced down the hallway before he whispered to her, "Do you mind if we go somewhere....not so open?"
Julian closed the door and sighed. "...Listen... I'm about to share something personal, and I don't want anyone else hearing it. ...After the fire, I was taken into a society deep within the blazing desert. Life barely thrived and fire reigned supreme. The gang I was in-er still are, is called: Catchfire. Not so clever, I know, but it fit. I could never...associate with others around my age unless it was in a bloody humor battle... That being said...I won't know half the things you say...but I have to appear as if I do..." He placed Lana over on the table farthest from a burning poster. She never liked the desert all too much...
"yeah..." he sighed, leaning against his desk, "It's certainly...a lot to take in, but it should pretty much explain much of me and my cover here," he gestured to the room that looked like it was on fire itself, with all the posters.



Looking around-not that it mattered since his door was closed- Julian placed his purple orchid underneath his bed, adjusting the sun lamp and water feeder. He felt joy as the flower dipped in satisfaction, feeling stronger.
Julian smiled.
Once he stood back up, he look at his schedule, which read that science class was first. He loved learning the cell structure of plants, but if they had to dissect any, he was sure he would be sick. But, he has to stay and watch, since everyone would think he uses fire.
Heck, even his eyes are red. Locking the door behind him, he set out for the science wing, catching a glance at two girls and a boy heading for the pool area. When he saw the one girl's face, with the short auburn hair, he blushed, for she looked so genuine, so cute.
Still, he headed for science, with the face of an angel in his head.
