Skyline Academy (Academy of Heroes)

Rainna Rivera

The girl with the purple earrings spoke up as they approached her, confirming that she had seen what they had as well, and that she had come down for exactly that reason. She introduced herself as 'Yunnie', before her bright outfit turned achromatic, save the earrings and the glitter on her boots. Rainna blinked a couple of times at the Asian teen's clothes, finding that sudden display to be rather surreal. Sure, strange abilities were seen everyday at the academy, but this one seemed like a trick on her eyes. An illusionist, interesting. The pyrokinetic girl had made the fire disappear, much to Rainna's relief, though, she wondered why she had thanked her. Was it for calming her down? She seemed like an agitated one.

"Sin problema, Amiga," Rainna playfully replied before addressing Yunnie. "It could be important, or just something that we're thinking way too much about, but weird is definitely right."

That was when Dav decided that it was time for him to leave for the night. He had given them his dorm number and requested to be notified should they find out about anything else. He also mentioned just chilling earlier on, and Rainna could see herself taking him up on that offer sometime. Besides, they would probably be seeing each other around the academy. Same for everyone else who was currently gathered at this place, in fact. Fire Girl agreed that they should all call it a night, and asked that they kept what they saw among themselves for the time being.

Rainna shrugged and nodded before repeating after her. "Ayt."

Her mind went back to the party back at her dorm, deciding that it was probably too late to go and get what she had come down for and that most of the students there had already left for the night. In addition, she was not sure if it was even safe to leave the school after what they had just witnessed. All she had to do was shoo the remaining partygoers out before crashing. Tidying up could be done tomorrow. She walked back up with 'Aira', who introduced herself before they split paths.

"See you around!" She ended off, before making her way back to her own dorm.

Roxgeo Forest - Clearing

4:00 p.m.

@PokimKyOshi @King Tai @OliveYou @Cerces22 @Ken @Eric Horst @Rabidporcupine @sempis

Right behind the academy is a large piece of land covered in lush green vegetation. For as long as Skyline had been standing, staff and students had used Roxgeo Forest as their location for training to test the limits of their superhuman abilities, away from the densely-populated areas for the safety of the public, or as public as it can get in the small island city. The entrance to the forest is merely a short trip from the back gate of the academy, after which one would take a walk through a Sun-lit forest path to an area cleared specifically for the students' use.

The day of the week had come when students would be taken out to the clearing after regular classes to explore their individual powers. The teens would develop their abilities or train to better control them under the watchful eyes of the academy's staff members, who would be present and available should their students require any aid or coaching. Students would also be encouraged to help one another improve in this aspect in any way they can. This was what inspired the implementation of the buddy training system, in which each student would be paired with a different partner every week for the purposes of their learning as well as their safety.

The session had just begun, this time with the student pairings being announced by the Head of the Science Department, Dr. Allison Roy. As the crowd of teens listened to the teacher, a few keenly-observant ones might have noticed that the red-haired woman seemed slightly more wary than usual. However, all else was normal, with the students dispersing at the end of the announcement to proceed with their individual training.

@Fallenreaper I'm guessing that was intentional then, lol. Whoops!

Kai was relieved to see Ratte getting up from the layer of debris on the ground which the explosion had caused. She seemed to be alright at least. When she suggested that they look for the other member of their group at the harbor, he only nodded at her and went along, recalling that it was the place he had been heading out to before the whole chain of crazy events leading up to the destruction of tavern took place. As they made their way there, he could only hope that Isago was alright as well, and that he was where Ratte guessed he would be.

There was no sign of anyone else besides them at the harbor when they reached the place, as it was expected such an hour. Away from the commotion and chaos of the earlier occurrence, Kai immediately felt better. He found comfort in the salty sea air, the stars in the open night sky, and the sound of the ocean waves, remembering how it was what he used to have almost every night. Making his way out along one of the docks, he then to a seat at the edge of it and shut his eyes for a while, relishing the peace and quiet of his surroundings. He longed to be out at sea again, but for now, the memories of that freedom would have to suffice.

With a long sigh, he stood up and turned to Ratte. "It's been a rough night, I just... needed a moment. We can look for Isago now."

“It’s nice to meet you, Rebecca. Now, although I would love to have a chat with you, I would rather do it somewhere that is more cozy and warmer than here, don’t you think?”

@Darth Shadow

Rebecca? XD

@Darth Shadow If there's nothing else then sure, let's move on :)

Skyline Academy (Academy of Heroes)

@sempis Not at all, it's a cool idea. He's accepted.

Apologies to all who have not been able to participate much (or at all) so far, I plan to have a time skip up by this weekend so that your characters can jump in.

Skyline Academy (Academy of Heroes)

@sempis No worries, thanks for the update. We'll fit your character in when you get them up. We're not too active, we move this along around once a week or slightly slower. We only ask for a short heads-up in the OOC when real life gets in the way.

Guild of Dishonor

@Blueflame @xXSINXx I remember you both from the previous thread for this RP when the GM disappeared lol. Glad to have you back though. Also it looks like Jack can be another potential mentor for Kai. Either that or rival.

Kai heard Ratte's voice telling him that they should leave, and looking around, there were a couple of good reasons for that. The people in the tavern who had noticed the fire, the Captain and his companion included, had already begun to evacuate the place. It seemed like there was no preventing the establishment from getting destroyed. Ratte also had a point about getting out of there before more military personnel arrived at the scene. He dashed off, assuming that both she and Isago were not far behind him.

The the crackling of the fire commotion of the crowd escaping the tavern grew faint as he continued to run further away from the ignited building. It was only a matter of time before it blew up. Never mind the spare gunpowder that he and the rest of the group kept down in the basement, the place was a drinking establishment. Once he was far enough, the boy ran behind a wall, covered his ears, and waited for the explosion. He did not have to wait long, and when it was over, he peered around the corner, hoping to spot his teammates through the smoke.

Shall probably do a time skip to the next day after @Ken, @King Tai, and @PokimKyOshi get their last posts in. That should be sufficient to wrap up the conversation.
