Herculean Academy: Arc 1 - Welcome To The Academy

~Alexis Sinclair~

"Good morning to you sleeping beauty. I hope you're hungry cause I brought you breakfast."

Alexis heard Mishka coming a mile away. Well, maybe not a mile, but she did hear her. Her hearing was good. When Mishka came into the room, she didn't even look up from her laptop, on which she was currently browsing some forum message board. One of her less...sketchy past times on the internet. Usually she was either gaming, or trying out her hacking skills.

"No, not really." She replied, not looking up, or tearing her attention away from the computer. "Thanks for the rude awakening too, jackass. Appreciate it. No really." She shot Mishka a brief glare, before returning to her laptop. "I can take care of myself too, so you wasted your time bringing that."

It was more than a little obvious, she wanted nothing to do with Mishka and wanted her to just leave her alone, go away, and probably crawl somewhere and die. Well, maybe not that extreme. But she did want Mishka gone.

Hahahaahah! She got him good! That was hilarious! It was all she could do to restrain herself from laughing and giving herself away. He seemed pretty aware though, like...she was pretty sure he sprouted a few extra eyes!..curious. She was fairly sure he was not one of her kind...so some sort of Bio-manipulation then? Similar to her abilities, but not? Hmm...but how to go about this next! She needed this to be elaborate and good! First...distract him! But how how how without being seen...hrm...She wasn't getting out of her little hiding spot so easily. Switch places with the anatomical dummy?...no...she would be seen...not to mention she didn't fancy taking off her clothes...She'd have to do that some other time. Like...tomorrow!

It seemed like she was backed into a wall here. So how how how how....She needed to distract him somehow...

Tripping him could work.

yes, that was a wonderful idea! After he was tripped, she could swiftly move to her secondary hiding spot!

A thin, fleshy tendril snaked a complicated path across the ground again, making sure to try and stay out of his range of vision. Hiding behind desks, displays, and other things in the room. By the time it reached the kid, it had made quite the complicated path across the floor.

Just as he got a few paces from the back of the room where she was hiding, the tendril wrapped itself around his leg, giving it a sharp tug, pulling his feet out right from under him - or at least, that was the intended effect.

I take it that people are working today? Perhaps celebrating(if you live in the US)?

@Melkor

I was.

That's over now though...will probably get up a post for Alexis/Meredith soon.

Okay, It'll be an into level with a few more advanced concepts involved.

@Melkor

Which means the first years should have an intro class some time with you, too~ xP

annnyways, I'm off for the night. See ya all tomorrow~

<Snipped quote by Rune_Alchemist>

Cool. Quick question: Is the second year physics an introductory course? Or is it like physics 2 or something?

@Melkor

Well, you're the teacher...its whatever you want it to be/think is appropriate?

I think a little bit of both, might be good? I dunno, I've never had a physics class before...xD
Bio/Chem was my thing.

I come bearing bad news: my best friend's dog is dying :<

@Daxam

Doggie! D:

...well, I can't actually say I'm too upset.

I'm more of a cat person.

Herculean Academy: Arc 1 - Welcome To The Academy

Oh lord.

Ziska, what have I gotten you into...xD

Herculean Academy: Arc 1 - Welcome To The Academy

Posted for Ziska, Anastasia, and Meredith :D

Also, just to clarify...Alexis is the last person who would have a girly scream...just for people further information xP
She would not be caught dead going 'kyaaaah' or any variation of xP

Also, @Melkor Second years will be going to your characters class first :D

Annd...I think that's it.

have fun with Meredith, @Shifter_master

Herculean Academy: Arc 1 - Welcome To The Academy

~Ziska Seighild and Anastasia Tepes~

Last time we visited Ziska and Anastasia they were butting heads with each other. Let's take a look at what they are doing now, 7 hours later:

It was silent in the dorm of Ziska and Anastasia. On the one side there was the vampire girl, still silently observing Ziska and ready to pounce at her at a moment's notice. Although she looked a lot less aggressive then she did a few hours ago. On the other side of the dorm there was Ziska, who through the course of the night, had made some more tea, and was silently drinking it while Anastasia continued to glare at her. Her sword was laying at her side. It seemed as though, the human was true to her word that she didn't need much sleep.

So all in all... Nothing had really changed.

Until suddenly,

GODDAMN IT!!!!

A loud scream rang through the girl dorms.

Anastasia moved her head in the vague direction from which the sound came. That voice, it was familiar. It almost sounded like Alexis, although then possibly ten times as loud... And Alexis' dorm wasn't even close to this one so that's impossible. So to Anastasia there was only one explanation as to how she suddenly heard Alexis.

Anastasia gave an angry glare to Ziska, more so then previously. "Get out of my head, your trick doesn't work with me." She said in a noticeably less aggressive tone then when she spoke to Ziska 7 hours earlier.

"I have no idea what you're talking about." Ziska replied to Anastasia. Someone either had a very bad dream, or just didn't like being woken up. That was quite a loud shout too, not to mention the language. Hopefully whoever it was would show a bit more...restraint, in normal conversation. "That shout was not my doing." She took a sip of her tea, her voice indicating she did not care much for Anastasia's accusations. "Must you be so suspicious? If you would have just co-operated, then we wouldn't be currently having this ridiculous glaring match."

Anastasia sighed. "Sure, why be suspicious of someone who can mess with your mind without you knowing it. Not like something bad could ever happen..." She replied to Ziska in an annoyed manner. Seriously, why did she have to get roomed with Ziska. Anastasia would have preferred anyone then her...

But Ziska did have a point though, this glaring wasn't going to achieve anything. If Ziska was going to try anything then she would have done so already in the last 7 hours. Unless... That was exactly what she wanted Anastasia to think! She was hoping that Anastasia would let her guard down, but Anastasia would have none of that!

"So, why have you not slept yet hmm? You're still only human, you need your sleep don't you?" Anastasia asked, half out of curiosity and partly because she wanted to at least make the time pass faster by doing something... Maybe she should go take a shower or something...

"I believe I told you before that I require little sleep. Perhaps you should listen better." She replied, finishing off her cup of tea. "Or not. Then we'll likely be having this conversation again later." She got up off the bed where she was sitting, and walked over to a small counter where she had made the tea at.

This conversation was again, going nowhere. Like their little conversations had gone for the entire night. It was getting rather annoying, to be perfectly honest. Not to mention tiring. Having a roommate that didn't need sleep was going to make her sleeping habits harder to hide. She supposed she could take a little nap in the shower or something...

She looked at the clock that was sitting close to her bed. Well, an hour or so until class. Might as well start getting ready...second years like her had Geoffry first for physics class.

Anastasia rolled her eyes. She didn't even know why she asked, she didn't care to be honest. She figured that there wasn't a lot to do here other then just keep on glaring at each other, which she had enough of after 7 hours.

Anastasia thought it'd be best to start wearing something respectable as she couldnt really go to the first day of class in her sleeping attire. So sh stretched her arms and was about to get up from her bed when suddenly...

A short blonde girl walked in... Completely revealing her, euhm, everything. The girl then stuck her hands out in which she was holding a soaking wet book. The only thing she said was "hairdryer".

Anastasia blinked for at the girl as she had a blank expression on her face. She then briefly looked at Ziska, wondering what was going on.

Hearing the door open, Ziska turned to see who had thought it was a good idea to come into their dorm without at least even knocking first. She was quite surprised to find a girl, completely undressed standing at their door. Did...did this girl just walk down the hallway without a shred of clothing?

Ziska was pretty sure, for once in her life, she was completely dumbfounded. She looked over to Anastasia briefly, just long enough to catch the other girls eye. Just...what?

"Uhm...can we...uh...help you?" Ziska asked the girl. In hindsight, she should have probably gotten her a towel...or some clothes.

~Meredith Hillard~

Ooh, look! Someone finally decided to show up! Took them long enough to get her class. So this was going to be one of her delicious little new students, hmm? Hehehe, the first years were always so much fun! He didn't look any different. Ooh what should she do!? A little greeting was in order, yes! But what kind of greeting? It should be something that'll be memorable and not easily forgotten!

She peeked out from her little hiding spot in the back of the room. Currently, she was crouched behind some anatomical mannequins, boxes full of various supplies, and other things. Obviously, it was the best hiding spot in all of creation.

She giggled quietly to herself. Time to get moving. A small, fleshy tendril moved quietly from her arm, to the new student, snaking along the ground so that it wouldn't be seen easily from where he was sitting. After it reached his desk, it hovered above him for a bit, simply sitting there and watching him.

Before promptly whacking him on the head.

Quickly, the tendril retreated as quickly as she could make it, retreating out of his sight in mere seconds. She chuckled to herself. He'd probably think the place was haunted! Ooh! That was a good idea!...but how to make that work on a moments notice...hmm...
