Laikos[/color][/h2] [b][u]Location:[/u][/b] Newly Arrived at Academy [b][u]Interacting With:[/u][/b] No one[/center][hr][hr] [center] Odd things were happening around here lately. At least from her small understanding anyway. No one seemed to keen on telling her much of anything, but she got a weird vibe from this place. And instincts were usually pretty reliable things. Especially for her. And it didn't seem like anyone was much interested in the Hecate witch child who had been MIA for three years since her first acceptance into the school. The peculiar girl stood in front of the Academy and slowly looked around. Her long dark hair and the shadow of a likeness to her own mother's face covered in dark makeup, she wasn't exactly approachable. Her blank expression and mirror-like blue eyes were not exactly inviting. Three years ago she had been accepted here. Why had she stayed away so long? She had been so happy to get accepted... Maybe it was due to her anxiety. Other children of the Gods were here, some far stronger and much more in-tune with their divine parents and powers than her. Intimidating, yes, but not the entire excuse of staying away. Monster attacks maybe? Well, they had made it difficult to get in any public transportation but Nebraska wasn't oceans away from Utah. Even if it felt like it sometimes. No it was probably a multitude of things. Her own anxiety, suffering self-consciousness, not wanting to be compared to others... And being absolutely terrified of meeting siblings that surpassed her on ever level, solidifying that her mother saw her as a disgrace. And that was the reason she always kept her distance. Whew. Mouthful of a bad excuse... But she was here now. That [u]is[/u] what counted, right? Right? Ugh. No one cared about her self torture or family issues. They all had their own to deal with. So she guess it was time to strap on her big girl boots and face her fears. Just march up in there and... And what? Shrink into the background? No. Learn all that she could. She wasn't doing this for anyone else here at the school. She was doing this to learn self control and become a better Demi. Become the best version of herself that she could be. Yes. That was why she was here. Standing alone in the lawn, in front of an Academy filled with Demis who shone brighter than stars in the sky... Her hands shimmered red and she stuffed them in her jacket pockets. Her dark skirt fluttered a bit and she left her boots carry her forwards, dark hair trailing behind her like a shadow. Yeah. She was doing this to become better... So why did she suddenly feel so terrified? [/center]
