School For Half Humans (REBOOT, IC)

[Tomia]

Eric chuckled and smiled when Salma tried on the necklace. "The only thing prettier than the necklace is you." He said to his girlfriend. He looked around the apartments for a place to hide the necklace. Then Eric saw an old wall with a loose brick. He took the necklace from Salma and wrapped it in a small cloth from his bag and wrapped the necklace in it and placed it into the wall behind the brick. From the outside you couldn't tell anything was strange about the wall so Eric figured it would work. "There no one should be able to find it there."

[New Cinoth]

Seth sighed, "Okay her memory has a giant hole in it. The magic only covers up the memories because they affected her so much taking them away might not be the safest option. SO I hid them quite well. As long as no one spill it to her or makes her try to remember she should be fine." he shrugged, "If she becomes a fallen angel she'll change but she'll be the same. However if we screw with her mind too much we'd completely break her. Her mind might become like a permanent ball of putty. Imagine that. A hobo could walk up to her and ask for to..." He stopped to consider precisely who he was talking to, "He could ask her to commit a crime and she would. Using magic to warp a mind is dangerous business. Thankfully dark magic makes it a bit easier and I happen to be quite adapt at the stuff, not perfect enough to hide it completely, but adapt enough to make sure it would take some serious looking and self reflection, not to mention a bit of a nudge in the right direction." He chuckled, "But as long as no one reminds her she should just create a nice little phony story that she believes happened."

[Nuridia]

Salma nodded in approval. "Perfect." She sealed it off by welding the mortar to the brick carefully with a jet of fire, so nobody would be able to move the loose brick without chipping the mortar. "Okay, so what would you like to do now?" "I think I need to go home and have a bath, but I had a lot of fun with you today." At the school Falan decided to return home through the portal and Raphael immediately went and closed Aurelia's door so she couldn't see and intercepted the wolf when he came out.

[Tomia]

"I had a great time too. It's the most fun I've had in a long time. We should probably head back to the school. It's getting kind of late." Eric knew he should get home soon. Eric knew John was probably furious with him.

[New Cinoth]

Seth grinned, "Oh! There you are Falan! I'm judging by the smell that everything is done. Did you find anything good?" He paused, "Oh and don't tell Aurelia about this trip. We messed with her memory so she'd forget about it. If you tell her it might cause her to have a complete breakdown. She'd suddenly remember and instead of guilt all she would feel is happiness. So she'd be traumatized for life." He patted Falan on the back, "Anyways, now that that is out of the way, how was your trip? is the town gone? Did you see the witch-hunters? Did you find anything cool to bring back as a memento?"

[Nuridia]

"I had a great time too. It's the most fun I've had in a long time. We should probably head back to the school. It's getting kind of late." Eric knew he should get home soon. Eric knew John was probably furious with him.

Salma nodded. "Okay." "I speed dialed Bergan while we were looking for the diamonds so he should be here soon." "Cause the jet might take a while to get there if I called now." As the pair were talking, the whirring sound and a strong wind blew above them, and the dragoon jet had arrived. A maid threw down the rope ladder for the two to climb on and Salma made sure all their stuff and Eric was accounted for before climbing up the ladder. In the school, Falan was surprised but he nodded, tossing the leader of the witch hunter's sword to Seth and went to go sleep in his room. After dressing Asteria and making her dinner, Aurelia was in her room listening to music, blissfully unaware of anything that was happening. Marie closed the door and went outside to where the men were and threw her arms around her husband, turning to Seth. "Is Aurelia gonna be alright? She seems really calm right now and it was hard keeping silent for that long but I did it."

[Tomia]

Eric followed Salma into the plane carrying his thugs with him. Once they were inside they sat together as the plane took off into the sky. As they sat together Eric took Salma's hand and looked at her "I really want to thank you for today. It was awesome and I've never been able to control the monster inside me like that. You're the best girlfriend ever."

[New Cinoth]

Seth grinned at Falan, "Why thank you!" I'll have to repay him for this lovely present later... He picked up the elegantly carved sword, "Morality blades... I've always loved these." Seth sighed, "Yes, she's going to be alright. As long as no one spills what happened. If anyone does it's a breakdown waiting to happen." Seth looked at her curiously, "Did you, by any chance, see anything interesting as the spell went on? It's said some people can see weird hallucinations." Seth was lying through his teeth about the hallucinations, but he had to know if she had seen what had happened.

[Mornovia]

Yuta laughed a little as he went along with Alex, making sure he didn't trip over branches or anything else on the ground. "It's not dark and gloomy at all." He said, grinning

"Yeah, it is kinda romantic the way the sunlight breaks through.." He was looking at Yuta before tripping over a branch, he did not see trying to find anything to keeping him from falling he grabbed Yuta's hand.

"Yea- Agh!" Yuta loses his balance and falls with him, and lets out a small "oof" as he (1) landed on top of him, (2) landed under him.

[Nuridia]

Marie nodded. 'I saw a huge bird, out of the corner of my eyes." "I didn't say anything, but it was really big and it glowed blue." In the plane, Salma grinned. "You're a really awesome boyfriend, way better than those stuffy princes my parents wanted me to end up with." "Most of them only wanted to date me to claim my throne, but you're a wonderful guy and the best boyfriend ever." "I hope we go on more dates and spend a lot of time together." As they chatted away, the plane soon arrived back at the school. Salma saw Seth and Aurelia's parents gathered in the hallway and climbed through the window to join them after giving Eric a farewell kiss on the cheek. "Hey Seth, why's everybody hanging around out here?" "Some secret meeting or something?" Raphael saw Salma and Eric return, and worried, placed a silencing charm around the bedroom so Aurelia couldn't hear anything.

[New Cinoth]

"It was certainly not a giant blue bird. you were hallucinating, which is quite common in the field of magic. I suggest you tell no one else of what you saw." Seth sighed, Great.... Hopefully she'll buy that for now. Seth chuckled, "It's not really a secret meeting." He looked at Raphael and Marie, "We were just discussing some business. Nothing important." He gave Raphael a look of Do not say a WORD about it. you know what'll happen if someone makes a mistake. He sighed and looked down at his new blade that Falan was kind enough to bring back for him, "Anyone know what werewolves like as gifts?"

[Nuridia]

Raphael gave Seth a look of "Do you think me such a fool? I'll do anything to protect my daughter! Even if it comes to..that act, which I hope it does not" the angel added as an afterthought. Even if Seth's spell did mess up, Raphael had a way to set it all right again, but it was a very hard and difficult process.

[Tomia]

Eric enjoyed the plane ride back, having time to talk to Salma. When they got out of the plane Eric saw it was getting dark. He said goodbye to Salma and walke to his room. As he walked he wondered what John would saw about Eric not contacting him all day. He still hadn't turned on his phone.
Eric walked through the hallway and opened the door to his room. The moment he stepped into the room a fist came flying out from the corner of the room. The fist connected with his nose and Eric heard a sickening crunch as blood splattered across his face. Eric fell to the ground to see John standing over him looking extremely angry. Eric got up holding his nose. "What the hell was that about?" John stared at him and said "Where the hell have you been?" "I was out with Salma, what's the big deal?" John looked even angrier "What's the big deal? You turned yesterday! You nearly kill two people so you decide it's a good idea to go running off with a girl you barely know, with your phone turned off and not telling me where you went." Eric started to get mad. "Hey it's my life I can do what I want and Salma has done more for me in the last two days than you have in your whole life. John grabbed Eric and threw him against the wall. "You selfish bastard! I'VE GIVEN YOU EVERYTHING! My whole life has been about protecting you! All I ever hear from Mom and Dad was "Take care of Eric" and "watch out for Eric". They cared about you more than me. All I've ever done is protect you so never say I haven't down anything for you." Eric pushed back against John "I never asked for any of that. You never let me do anything. This is the first time in my life I've ever had friends." He turned away and walked to the bath room to clean his face. John yelled to him. "That's right walk away, classic Eric. Don't blame me when you rip your little girlfriend's heart out of her chest." Eric turned around anger soaring in his mind. His eyes turned blood red and he let out a werewolf like roar. He threw John against the wall. "Don't you ever talk about her like that!" He stepped back and saw he was losing control. He grabbed one of his bags and stormed out of their room. John got up and yelled after him "Hey, where are you going?"
Eric walked over to Salma's dorm still extremely angry and knocked on the door his nose clearly broken and blood spattered on his shirt and face.

[New Cinoth]

Seth shrugged as if to say just checking. "Hmmmm.... I think a collar is out if the question.... Neither would a squeaky toy be acceptable. "Aurelia knows the most about Falan right now, so I could just ask her..... Unless anyone else has a helpful suggestion." He thought for a moment, Falan just had a huge meal so I doubt food will be a good gift.. His hea jerked to the side and his face split into a big grin, I smell an extreme anger..... Oh this could certainly be fun. Maybe I might secure another soul. Dammit I wish I had an imp around to go scope it out.

[Nuridia]

Salma saw Eric walking to her dorm and smiled. "Hey Eric, what did John sa...AHHH!" Salma let out a shriek when she saw Eric bloodied from his nose and all over his shirt. "Oh my God, what the fuck happened to you?!" Raphael looked him over. "Looks like you got into one hell of a fight, what happened?" He checked out Eric's face. "I can heal your nose if you like, if it's not properly set it may never heal properly." Aurelia still had a silencing spell on her door and so didn't hear the commotion outside her dorm.

[New Cinoth]

"I'll be back." Seth grinned and disappeared out the door. He followed the drops of blood back to where they originated form. So someone really angry is on the other side... Hopefully they are borderline homicidal. He knocked on the door, "Hello? Anyone home?" Now let's see how this person will go.... Maybe they might be willing to make a deal. Or I could at least soften them up for the future. He grinned to himself as he waited.

[Tomia]

Eric heared Salma's shriek and tried to calm her down, which was difficult considering how angry he was. "Don't worry I'm fine it's nothing." He walked inside and saw Raphael. He and John usually fixed their own injuries since you couldn't really take a werewolf or a demigod to a hospital, but he couldn't fix this himself. "Ya that would help thanks." Eric sat down with Salma to tell her what happened. He pointed to his nose and said "This is one of John's right hooks. He used to box if you can't tell."
John heard someone knock on the door and said "Who is it?" He was really angry as not much in te mood to talk.

[New Cinoth]

Seth grinned, He's speaking.... So he won't shut me out. "It's me, Seth. I couldn't help but notice your brother is bleeding. Would you know anything about that?" Seth asked , innocently enough. Having a silver tongue would go much farther than anything else when it came I speaking with upset people. "Did you two have a little scuffle? Was it because of his new girlfriend?" Seth took a shot in the dark. He knew those two left without John so it was possible he would be bitter.

[Nuridia]

As Raphael got to work on healing Eric's broken nose, Salma noticed Seth knocking on John's dorm door. "Looks like Seth wants to talk with John." she said questioningly. When she heard his sentence she was puzzled. "Now why in the world would he mention me?" she asked quietly but loud enough for Raphael and Eric to hear. "Did I do something to piss John off, or make him mad at you?" Her eyes widened as she looked at Eric's slowly healing nose. "Am I the reason behind this?!" she said with a mix of sadness and anger in her voice. The last thing she wanted to do was come in between Eric and John.

[Tomia]

Eric looked up at Salma while Raphael fixed his nose. His anger growing as Salma became upset. "No! Salma you did nothing wrong. It's not your fault it's his. He got all crazy about the two of us going out today without telling him. I didn't want him to know so we could be alone. He's just being an ass." When Raphael finished fixing his nose Eric got up and said "Hey, is Aurelia here? I need to talk to her."
John opened the door and let Seth in. "So he ran right behind his girlfriend's skirt huh? Whatever. I'm sick of taking care of him when he gives me nothing but grief about it."

[Nuridia]

Raphael looked at Eric after he was done and he started to get worried although it didn't show in his face, but he said nothing about the spell. Eric didn't know anything about the town getting destroyed so hopefully he didn't have to worry about that. But he wasn't going to take any chances, Eric's bloodstained appearance might trigger a memory. "She said she had a bad headache and didn't feel well, so she went to her room early." "I have to give her her medicine anyway so you can tell me what you want to say and I'll tell her."

[New Cinoth]

Seth whispered to him, "I can tell you've probably looked after him your whole life, right? And then he gets a girlfriend and you are no longer needed. And to top it all off he uses his superior strength against you." Seth sighed, "It's truly a shame. You provide for him , you protect him, you risked your life for him back in Hell and he just tosses you aside." Seth nodded, " If you want I can help you get even, if you want."

[Tomia]

"I just wanted to ask her a favor. I wanted her to go and check on John. I'm pissed as hell at him but I don't want him to do anything stupid. He won't talk to me but he might listen to her."
John nodded, everything Seth was saying was true. It was nice for someone to finally understand. John was puzzled at Seth's offer. "What do you mean get even?"

[Nuridia]

Raphael was picking up demonic vibes from John's dorm, Seth had just gone in there a few minutes ago. Not meaning to, he was actually able to hear some things from their conversation. This was the demon he trusted with his daughter's mind to boot! Now he had to be careful or she'd never be the same again. "I honestly don't like what I'm picking up in there." He looked pointedly at John and Eric's dorm. "It might get ugly, my angel senses aren't liking it." Marie stood up from where she was. "I'll go speak to John, my husband is worried for him." "And so am I, since Aurelia's not well enough right now." Marie knocks on the door of John and Eric's dorm and calls softly inside. "Hello, may I come in?" "John, are you in there?" Raphael looked at his wife with a look that said, "Be careful Mimi." "Don't get hurt in there, or else I might have to kill one of them." Marie smiled back at him. "Raph, I'll be fine love. I promise, just worry about Aurelia right now."

[New Cinoth]

Seth nodded sympathetically, "I can give you more strength so your brother can't just push you around like a helpless kitten. You can prove how much he really needs you an show him that all you've ever done is care for him." Seth grinned, "Things will be much better don't you think? Your brother won't be able to just walk all over you and force you to submit to him because of his strength. I bet if you weren't around he wouldn't be alive. I can't see how he could know that and just treat you like that. It's truly a shame."
