Aleksa nodded to the man and smiled at the girl who had opened the door for her. She walked close behind the man not wanting to lose her way. As she walked her nervousness began to climb and was visible through a constant flicker that ran through Aleksa's body every few seconds. "No not now..." she said as she teleported backwards but was immediately shot back to her original position behind the man. "Sir do we get our own rooms?" Aleksa asked.

"It is fine." Jinx said standing and patted Kurohime's back as if she was a person in need of a comforting. He turned and looked towards the front of the auditorium. "Apologies not needed. After all we monsters have to stick together." Jinx stated adding in a seriously dry chuckle. This girl was interesting and he planned on gathering more information about her unique characteristics. "I believe we should form this compact I read of...called a friendship." Jinx spoke looking at Kurohime with an emotionless face. He kinda forget to smile to add more emotion to his request of friendship.

A friend....

Did she even want a friend?

Did she even...deserve a friend?

Yet this is what this strange fellow had called her, or rather asked of her to be. Even with a lack of a smile, Kurohime could still sense the sincerity in his words, the warmth in his eyes. However, she didn't know what to think of this. Friends, twas something she never had in her short breadth of life, and quite amused was she by this youth, though it never showed. She supposed she could entreat this one's request....but then...those very words entered her mind, like a sharp dagger piercing through her skull, the cold chill of the blade upon her bleeding, marred flesh sending shivers to every ending of her frazzled, petrified nerves.

"Do not grow attached to anyone. You are here to learn, and that is all. The fate of the world is not our concern. If we hear different...there will be consequences."

No...she couldn't disappoint Master. God only knows what he would do to her, or worse...what they would do to her.

"I...I'm sorry..." Kurohime turned away from him, again her eyes facing nothing but the cold, bleak darkness of the dimly lit floor below as she whispered in a hushed, oft mournful tone. "You are indeed kind, that much I can discern, but....I'm afraid I must reject your invitation to...a friendship..." Solemnly she sighed, closing her blood red eyes. "It has nothing to do with you.... It's just....I don't think I would be the right friend for you..."

"Yes you do. There is a room down that hall with your symbol on it."the white haired man pointed down the hall. The he headed to the auditorium. "Please be seated. We have a lot to cover. I'm sure you all have questions. I will try to answer all of them."

Liz found a seat towards the front of the room and sat down. She had so many questions that she had no idea where to start. She hoped that the leader woukd answer them so she woukd have to sort through all the questions in her head.

Dusk would sit near the middle, watching the others like him, wondering exactly how was their powers supposedly connected to these signs. 'well tons to go through...' he thought to himself looking towards the front, having never used his power unlike some of the others, he wondered what he could do with it.

Oh, would you look at that, the guy finally came along with some other people. The bleeding of his nose stopped before anyone else could enter though which was cool for him. Miroku straightened his posture and then he would listen to whatever the guy would say. He had a few questions but other than those, he had nothing.

@Flightless_Soul

"Understandable." Jinx bluntly said. He forming a contract with someone he just met was gonna be tough so he decided not to force it on her. He noticed the head master walk in awaited the discussion that was soon the be. "It seems I'm not compatible with you in your eyes." Jinx said emotionlessly starring at Kurohime and then back at the head master. "I believe we are compatible..." He said not speaking directly to her but loud enough for her to hear.

@Slendy

Though her outer visage remained unperturbed, or so it appeared, inside, it was a different story. Her words...they had only served to slight the boy, to dash any hopes he...or she even had of a possible friendship, such words spoken in dry venom, that they too poisoned the blood of Kurohime, and brought a searing, intolerable agony to her heart, a heart she had thought broken and numb already.

"I believe we are compatible..."

And that did it....those very words he uttered from hushed lips of paroxysm and scorn, they were the final nails driven into the sepulchre of Kurohime's inner turmoil. "Then....believe what you will..!" There was a shift in tone as her eyes, gleaming brighter and more ferocious than Hellfire, turned towards the boy, her accustom whisper seeming more as an incensed growl. Suddenly, she turned for the worst, snapping at him as a dark, vicious hound of Thanatos, her frail, petite figure quaking and trembling with every utterance of flames from her lips. "Because we're not! So just...just leave me be!!" She screamed to the top of her lungs, echoing throughout the auditorium...for all to unfortunately hear.

Then...something felt warm against her cheek...streaming from her eyes glaring angrily at the boy. They were tears indeed....tears...of blood streaming down her face. She couldn't take this anymore. Pushing herself against the boy, she coldly and wearily shoved him aside, racing towards the exit and back into the cold of the Autumn afternoon. She found herself falling to the ground soon after, lying in lachrymose beneath the looming shadows of an ancient willow tree, weeping till the grass beneath her was soaked in a sea of crimson, the dark shadows forming around her body, as though a blanket of security to comfort and console her as her painful cries fell into breathless whimpers.

She didn't want this....any of this....

Aleksa smiled and walked to the back of the meeting room where she could listen. She looked around the room and watched the other children with and intent to try and see what kind of powers they had. For some it wasn't hard as they were just showing them off like a kid who was spinning a ball of fire in the palm of her hand. "So their just like me then" Aleksa said under her breath before letting out a rather large sneeze and teleporting forward a few feet. When she recovered Aleksa moved back and leaned against the wall to relax while waiting for the meeting to start.

"Welcome to the facility. Here you will learn to use your ability and how to work together as a team. You don't have to stay here. I could force you but I don't think that would win me your cooperation. However I will warn you that if you leave you will be on your own without my protection. If you stay I promise that you will be rewarded." the old man told them. He studied the group. He thought most of them would stay.

While listening to all of this, Kofi had a question "Sir, one question...yes we will be trained and all but what will we be up against? who or what is the enemy?"

@KatherinWinter

@King Tai
"You will be up against many enemies. Some will be humans but most will be creatures from another realm. We have discovered a warp between our world and another. Sometimes creatures through the warp. When they do they tend to destroy things or hurt people. You will be trained on how to capture or kill these creatures."The white haired man explained.

@KatherinWinter

"Creatures? will you be choosing who will be working together or can we choose? and if we are using teamwork, how many people will be on a team?"

Miroku was about to ask questions when the transforming guy got way ahead of him. Well it would be better to sit back and listen to the answers. Oh? So they were training them to be superweapons against other people and apparently, other creatures. Whatever those creatures may be must be hell of a powerful that they need the help of superpowered teenagers.

He raised his hand to ask a possibly stupid question, "These creatures... can we tame them or is it impossible?" Oh yeah, having a creature with epic powers is pretty cool. Given his childish thinking, of course he would ask that. It was far from a joke, however, as it may be a good thing if they can tame a creature. "And only teenagers have powers? No adults or anything like that?" He continued, wondering why they didn't just dispatch a bunch of adults to handle it. After all, they were much better than just teenagers right?

@KatherinWinter

@King Tai@Polaris North
"Yes creatures. Things out of books, movies,and legends. Some can be tamed but those are rare. And you have to have the right power and personality to do it. Right now you are the only ones in the world with these powers. You will all work together. Sometimes you will work in small groups or pairs. Each situation is different sometimes you will have more say then others. I will give you the choice when I can." the old man explained

@KatherinWinter
Dusk would sit forward listening to the conversation and looks to his hands "...What are all the supposedly powers that us kids suppose to have?" he asks "I haven't experienced this as of yet.. but I was told I was one and was told to come here in hopes to change a lot of things" he says before glancing at the others who already knows a concept with their abilities.

"Sphinx? Chupacabra? Krakens? Those kinds of creatures?" Miroku asked once more. Well they were myths and that guy just said that they were going to fight creatures that came out of those kinds of stories. Well then, that would be rather hard to put on some teenagers. Those kinds of things were pretty hard to beat from what he heard. Even with his super speed, he doubted he would be able to defeat them with just punches.

Hopefully they could give him more than just his hands. Maybe some weapons would be appreciated. "Soon enough the world will know about us right? Then why should we keep everything a secret?" His 'family' had to believe that he was going to some special school but he was well aware that it was not. He didn't like lying... or at least lying to his so called family.

@KatherinWinter

Willow will have be able to manipulate poison. Dusk you have the ability to manipulate. Storm will be able to speak any language. Hana is an empath. Jinx will be able to control metal. Miroku is super fast. Kofi will be able to change shape. Aleksa will be able to teleport. And Liz can heal." the old man pointed to each of them as he explained. "Yes those are some of the creatures you might face. Plus many more. We are hoping to keep your identidies secret until you are able to defend yourselves.
@BlackCat@olcharlieboi@Polaris North@King Tai@Emilyicepop@Slendy@The ghost in black

That was all of their powers? Wow, they do have some variety. Miroku was pretty much impressed. Manipulation, Teleportation, Super Speed, Transformation, Psychic Powers (or at least he assumed it to be) and Healing. Now he really wanted to meet the girl with the teleportation powers, see if he can compete with it. If he can't keep up with her, fine by him, teleportation was kind of like manipulating space itself so it would be hard to keep up with that.

"Exactly what kind of training would we do? Battle simulators?" This is possibly the last he would want to know, given that he didn't really need to know much.

@KatherinWinter

@Polaris North
"Yes there will be battle simulations but not right away. You will have power development, life skills, gym, and regularly school subjects to start off. Once a week we will have practice battles." the old man explained.
