Yuri had heard the news that the Supreme's daughter wanted to talk to him and from what he'd heard nearly all the students at the school.  He wasn't one to complain, but a little insight would have been nice.  He's come to the Institute about 9 years ago and had learned how to control his abilities.  He was the "prodigy" as they called it.  The one student who could do things well, and some may say he was somehow the Supreme's favorite, but everyone knew the Supreme loved her daughter most of all.  When he first came to the Institute, he didn't speak, merely diving headfirst into learning and honing his skills.  During his spare time, he learned how to defend himself without the use of magic.  He trained his body, his mind, and his spirit.  Day in and day out he would wake up, get through his classes, train at a gym, and visit his aunt, a very powerful voodoo practitioner who ensured he was protected while attending the Institute.

His first encounter with Madame Muir was nothing more than pleasant.  It was like this all throughout his life of learning and she seemed to adore him.  There were times when he'd ask her a question and she would pinch his cheeks and tell him that the greatest power is the power within oneself.  Now in his early 20s, he recalled how much he'd grown from an 11-year-old boy to a very handsome, very popular young man.  To say that Yuri wanted for anything was a lie.  Yuri had inherited millions when his mother died and he turned 18, and even so his father doesn't let him spend a dime.  His father is an extremely wealthy man and powerful voodoo master who lives in Haiti but has houses in New Orleans and South Korea.  Currently, Yuri's father travels for business but has a sister who watches over Yuri.

Yuri arrived in the lavish dining room in the form of a luna moth that fluttered in and landed on a fellow student's shoulder.  This student, Remy, was Yuri's boyfriend, or at least he hoped.  They were in the beginning stages and he loved spending time with him.  To say that he was overprotective was an understatement.  Anyone who dared say anything about Remy got a fist to the nose or a hex that took them weeks to get rid of.  Remy often times would tell him to calm down and to control his emotions, and he would listen until someone would push too far.  Transforming into his normal form, Yuri wrapped his arms lovingly around Remy from behind and softly kissed his neck and cheek before sighing as he listened to Emelia speak on the contents of the book she held in her hands.  

It was all a lot to take in, and Yuri found himself questioning how they were going to make it out of this against someone so powerful.  Their Supreme had power that could rival a deity, but she was weakening as time went on and this was her way of trying to keep her power at the level she had reached.  They were no match for her in their current state.  They needed to learn how to protect themselves against such potent magic that the Supreme, Madame Muir, possessed.  Yuri rubbed Remy's arm to keep him calm because he didn't want Remy to be scared by the news they were all receiving.

"[color=7bcdc8]We'll figure out something babe,[/color]" Yuri said, his New Orleans accent heavy.

Looking up, he listened to Lithy, someone he'd bumped heads with a lot at the Institute, but never denied her prowess when it came to her knowledge and he oftentimes told her in private that he admired her knowledge.  Still, they had a Tom and Jerry type of relationship.  She was right in what she said about the Black Hill.  It wouldn't protect them.

"[color=7bcdc8]Sorry to be that person, but how do we know you're to be trusted Emelia?  This is a lot to take in and I'm not trying to upset anyone, but in all the years I've known Madame Muir, to say that she's capable of something like this is crazy.[/color]"

Yuri paused and sighed.

"[color=7bcdc8]But, she has been slipping as of late and she does seem off a bit the last few years.  I have to agree with Lithy.  We need to find a proper place to help us get stronger and protect us from her and her magic.  Maybe I can reach the Pantheon about this, but the next full moon is a couple of days away.[/color]"
