"Viking? Im not a vik-er I'm Lucas..."
Taking a moment of "deep" thought he asked Chess
"Say you want to be called Chess right? But are you a boy or a girl?"
Obviously a well thought out and completely appropriate question to ask (not) Lucas was just the person naive enough to ask it and not see any consequence.

Chess smiled a bit. "Technically," She said, unbuttoning her vest and shirt, revealing bandages wrapped tightly around her breasts, keeping them flat enough to be mistaken for pectorals on a guy. "I'm both." She continued, pointing to her amber eye. "When my brother Isaac was offed, his semblance fired off an overload, essentially merging the two of us, and leaving me with one working eye, and a shitton of scars." Upon closer examination, one could see that Chess' torso was covered in scar tissue, almost as if something had eviscerated her.

"Isaac's semblance was called 'Tether,' but it'd be accurate to say it made us one," Chess said, buttoning her clothing again. "Hence scars and eye. We could also see through each other's eyes and feel each other's sensations, including sound, smell, touch et cetera." Chess gave a slight smile, one of nostalgia. "However, when he was eviscerated, his personality merged with me, literally making us the same soul." Chess straightened her tie. "Believe it or not, but once I was a pristine bookish, shy maiden, without an ounce of perviness in me."

"That's pretty neat," Mentari pointed, "I'd have loved to see you as a shy book girl. Shy book girl's are cute."
She put Eclipse back onto the bed lovingly, squirming around in her bed as if she couldn't find a comfy spot. But it was actually just her enjoying her first day here. Her friends Chess and Charlotte seemed to have their own problems, but it wasn't something that couldn't be remedied by friendship. Right?
"Aaaaanyways, what're we going to do now?" she asked, stroking one of Eclipse's hilts.

Faal Lot Himdah wrote:Ning and Sirina
"An axe that is a rifle.... Nice." Sirina said, "Mine is just a cane, a rapier and a pop gun...."
Ning shook his head, "Ignore her. Anyways, there are seven chakras, each covers a different aspect. Muladhara, Swadhisthana, Manipura, Anahata, Vishuddha, Anja, and Sahasrara." He listed them, "Muladhara deals with the physical, so when using Muladhara, I gain a boost in my strength, but I take a hit in intelligence. Swadhisthana deals with emotions, when harnessing Swadhisthana I can enter a state of total calm, but I can't fight. Manipura is willpower oriented, as such when harnessed, my body and aura is fortified. Anahata is healing, so it's pretty obvious what I get from this, the ability to temporarily heal minor wounds. Vishuddha is intelligence, so I get a boost of intelligence at a cost of physical strength. Anja is concerned with mental communication, and with it I get the ability to locate anyone or anything, but I can't use it in combat. And finally, Sahasrara. Sahasrara is the awareness of illusions and the obtaining of a higher consciousness. It is the most draining of the chakras as with it I can learn pretty much everything about a person just by seeing them, well their aura. "

How long did she stand there until Adelaide's warmth faded from her body, the soft embrace the gentle way she wiped her tears just like she use too. How long had she waited after such a small but simple "See you later..." while her mind quickly replayed the entire series of events to this point with the two of them. Erde simply looked down from the edge of the cliff and sighed contently looking at the city below. It really was a spectacular view and she had only chosen it unconsciously encase she needed to drag Adelaide with her into a final death... No that wasn't entirely right...
Adelaide was one of the few people who Erde would find it hard to betray. Adelaide had seen the best in her... and had likely seen the beginning of her transformation into this creature she had become... and yet she still stood like a beacon on a dark night shining light towards her. With a small Sigh Erde quietly spoke to no one but herself while placing a hand lightly to her temples.
"Really Adelly... why can't you just kill me and end this suffering... I'd happily give you that right but your still far too soft... No maybe you are still hoping I can return to that child, maybe even i'm hoping for such an occurrence somewhere too.
Yes indeed Adelly, your really no Ozpin..."
As Erde then lightly shook her head, she then sighed and lightly then turned on her heels with her back to the city and then spoke lightly, but her eyes flashed with intense malice as her ears lightly flattened. She had noticed now for a long time the two presences that had silently watched her... one belonging to an old foe and the other... smelt strangely familiar... and yet distant.
"Now, now, now... Really; Good little boys and girls should be in bed quietly tucked under there covers...
Don't you know the "Reaper" is visiting tonight... or did you think I was actually going to test them yet... Leonard.
Because if you did you really you have no faith do you... I came on official business on behalf of Mistral...
But since you've made the effort to be such a pervert watching two young women reconnect after a long time away from each other at night... even you would accept a little punishment now wouldn't you..."
It was at that point Erde lightly then held her hand forward with its palm open. And then on command Erde's aura lightly glowed for a small moment before an object made from various lines of light formed crossing over each other until they formed a 3D graph of a swords dimensions. However as the lines disappeared, steel and iron took it's place in a dramatized slowness as it formed, As the sudden sword was quickly gripped by her hand and lightly swung downwards to a resting location at her right leg; Erde lightly smiled.
The blade itself was simple in design looking like a curved broadsword with no extravagance.
However as Erde looked in another direction, She unleashed only for a small moment all her bloodlust and smiled with a face full of pity... however such a face of pity quickly turned to a small mocking smile as she brought up her left and then quickly snapped her fingers.
"I can see you..."
With a loud snap that seemed to race out across the entire dock, five swords instantly appeared in the air beside Erde and faced forward to the unknown besides Leonard. There design was simple, tripronged thin blades akin to that of a Sai and yet they were thinner and quickly twisted within the air into that of five thin sharp rods resembling arrows and then with a fearful sound of a small shock wave. They indiscriminately fired forward towards the unknown watching with insane speed full of killing intent as the five steel swords seemed to scream as they tore the air apart.

Lucas stretched and yawned "Well, I dunno about you guys, but I'm gonna take a shower and go to sleep, maybe I'll wake up on time tomorrow."
He then gathered up his night clothes and a towel, as well as stuff like his toothbrush and left to the bathroom, shutting the door behind him and started the shower.
Once he was showering, he took the opportunity for a brief moment to think about the day
"So there are some trouble-makers, more trouble than usual I guess for different reasons..."
"I wonder how all my teammates fight and how we can work as a team?"
"Oh yeah! I need to think up my first prank...hmm something simple to start off with."
Once he turned off the shower, dried off, and brushed his teeth, he left the bathroom wearing very respectable pj's for someone who just moved into a co-ed dorm
Sweat pants and a muscle shirt, so he left and gestured to the bathroom which still had steam running out of it saying
"Okay, if you need your turn it's open, Goodnight"
And collapsed on the bed, quickly falling to sleep, his silence broken only by occasional heavy breathing and some random mumbled sayings
"You will fear my Laser face..." (RvB quote)

She hadn't specifically mean to cause their deaths, directly or indirectly, but it was just their misfortune and gross lack of skill despite their tough talk. Now, she could feel that thrill again.
She grabbed Tick and Tock from the holsters on the back of her belt, she then broke her stealth field. She manages to sidestep three of the blades, deflecting the fourth, and shattering the fifth with parries from her tonfas.
"I thought I recognized that scent, you seem to have recognized mine also. Never did bother to learn many of your names. You're one of the Fang's pets, weren't you? Or do you still answer to their beck and call like a tamed animal?"
She smirks before continuing.
"I doubt you came here looking for me though. Then again, I've heard what the Fang has started doing to its strays... I don't plan on being put down."
Erde couldn't help but sigh as she quickly smiled and then cooled off any murderous intent and then lightly waved with her free hand in a beckoning motion. As she took a light stance her eyes watched the girl and then spoke lightly.
"Are you kidding me... why would I waste my time on such a thing. Putting you down would be as simple as stepping on an ant..."
Erde then smiled flashing her canines and then like a mirage vanished into thin air, and reappeared only a second later behind the girl and extended a hand lightly onto a portion of her hair and hen brought a few stands to her nose and sniffed lightly before making a small huff.
"Hmm not bad shampoo and conditioner usage, the hair is rather healthy..." Erde then quickly let the hair fall and then quickly started poking, stroking and pinching touching the girls skin and clothing as she wished with a few fingers before quickly disappearing once more and reappearing only a few inches from the girls face. As Erde stared at her directly in the eyes she examined the faecal features and then she lightly smiled and then spoke once more.
"Hmmm... your movements are still slightly restricted... You'll need to lose some weight and gain a bit of muscle and increase your core further.
Well you are in your first year so your current sloppiness is due to mainly due to inexperience... Well maybe i am being harsh... after all you have put in a lot of effort to get this far haven't you Reina de Mazelle, or would you prefer Reina-Chan... Yes... I personally like the latter then the former, but don't worry, REINA -CHAN... I'm not here to kill you... so relax... don't look so worried..."
Erde then smiled further in an innocent fashion. And once more disappeared only to reappear quickly once more back in her original position. although she had changed how she was standing as she rested the blank looking blade's flat onto her shoulder. However her eyes never left the girl for a single moment as she resumed to stare once more.
"So Renia-Chan... would you like a present? You only get one however... your options are either a Weapon... Information... or some Experience on the vast distance still between us... if you choose the third, i'll be giving you this as a free lesson... if you wish to continue of course but for the moment it will only be the enrollment section of the course... are you up for such a..."Test..."."

She was confused. Everything was dark, dark and cold.
"Oh. You're dreaming again."
She wanted to get out. Get away from... wherever this was.
"Wake up. You can't keep on dreaming forever."
It was wrong. It was all wrong. She wanted it to stop.
"Even in a perfect reality, your world would still be flawed."
She started running, running headlong into the darkness, not knowing where she was going, just wanting to get away.
"Why is that?"
It... needed to stop. It needed to end. She couldn't breathe. Darkness was choking her soul. She heard a voice. Female, and young, simply... resonating through her mind.
"Who are you?"
"It doesn't matter who I am. What matters is who you are. Even so, you don't seem to care about that."
She kept running, but stumbled over nothing and fell, continuing to fall into the darkness, staring up at the blackness as wind rushed past her body. There was... something above her. A star? A moving star, twinkling and bobbing about. Stars weren't supposed to do that.
"Dreams die while reality lives on. But you'd rather live in in your dreams than reality."
She spread her arms, the wind whipping her hair about. She was cold. She wanted to stop falling.
"Could it be that you're afraid?"
"Dreaming? What're you talking about? This can't be a dream. My eyes are wide open, aren't they?"
"You don't have to close your eyes in order to dream. Keep them open. Time might leave you behind if you close your eyes for too long."
"I want this to stop. Make it stop!"
"If you don't like this dream anymore, then you'll just have to dream up a new one. Is that what you really want, though?"
She didn't understand. She couldn't think of the words to say.
"But I suppose if you want to dream, I'll let you. It's only fair."
"Stop messing with me."
"I gave you what you wanted. Why are you still unhappy?"
"I don't understand. I don't understand anything." Make it stop!
"You're dreaming, Charlotte. You're inside my mind, my world, my universe. Except everything you saw was made by you."
"Are you... Charlie?"
"Yes. Once you gave me a name, you created and entered your dream world."
"So... I'm not really... better?"
"Of course not. This is just your dream. You can see and do whatever you want here."
"Take me back."
"I can't. I took control of your body long ago."
...
"Don't be upset. I just wanted to have fun."
...
"I don't understand why you're angry. I'm just having fun. I took control of your body, but I still let you dream. I could've just ignored you, but I didn't."
"...I have dreams, so let me dream them..."
"You've been dreaming for too long. If you don't wake up soon, time will leave you behind and you won't be able to return to reality."
...
"But it's your choice. Once I take over your mind, you'll be able to stay here and dream forever."
Wait.
What am I supposed to do?
I don't know.
I just mess everything up.
I just mess everything up.
I just mess everything up.
I just mess everything up.
I just mess everything up.
"Yes... you do. Thank you for giving me a name. It gave me power."
In the waking world, she turned in her sleep, crying, and then reached up and dug her nails into her forehead, scratching long gashes across her face, barely missing her eyes.
WAKE UP!
In the waking world, she let out a small cry of despair.
In her dreams, however, she continued to fall...
Always, falling...
Into darkness...
Images flashing past her, memories, horrible memories that she had to hide, she knew what would happen if the truth were known, Reina had already demonstrated that.
"Damaged goods."
"I'm not damaged..."
"Yes, you are."
The star came into focus.
There was the face of a little girl.
A little girl... who looked exactly like Charlotte, before everything went wrong.
But in her eyes...
Charlotte saw someone else.
She realized who Charlie really was...
And the girl's next words only confirmed the horror.
"How else do you think I got here?"
Charlotte let out a terrified scream...
And shot upright in bed, gasping for breath, tears--and blood--coursing down her face.
This can't be happening.
But it was.

Images flashing past her, memories, horrible memories that she had to hide, she knew what would happen if the truth were known, Reina had already demonstrated that.
"Damaged goods."
"I'm not damaged..."
"Yes, you are."
The star came into focus.
There was the face of a little girl.
A little girl... who looked exactly like Charlotte, before everything went wrong.
But in her eyes...
Charlotte saw someone else.
She realized who Charlie really was...
And the girl's next words only confirmed the horror.
"How else do you think I got here?"
Charlotte let out a terrified scream...
And shot upright in bed, gasping for breath, tears--and blood--coursing down her face.
This can't be happening.
But it was.
Theriam heard the scream and his head perked up in reflex, like a wolf searching for their pups.
He looked at his brother with a glint of determination in his eyes and the latter let him go, pushing him with all the strength he could muster towards the end of the corridor, where their rooms were.
And upon arriving with quite the momentum, he tried to bring an opposite rotation to himself to stop before team CMCL's dorm room.
He crashed in front of it with a great thumping noise and scrambled around his belongings in his jacket to find his Scroll.
Barely managing to stand up, he tried to open the door with it.
Surprisingly enough, it did open, proof that somehow, somewhere within herself, Charlotte did know he would come, for whatever reason.
Once the door opened, he fell to his knees and tried to stand up again, his muscles making odd cracking noises in response, yet he did stand up, albeit painfully, he did.
Once he saw Charlotte with blood on her face and a terrified look, his emotionless facade broke as he managed to get besides her.
However, due to the exhausting fight, he simply collapsed on the bed, breathing heavily as a sad scowl showed itself.
"Charlotte... Those nightmares again? Here, let me heal you up a bit." He applied his hand upon her face and his breathing suddenly got ragged as he used the Spin to heal her again.
"There... All... All better..." He smiled weakly at her as his heartbeat started to slow down, the remnants of the Ripple in his body slowly disappearing, making him look his age a bit more.

She was still crying, almost hysterical, babbling in an incoherent manner.
"I... not better... she's... and I can't... so scared... dead... in my... alive... torturing me... scared... nightmares, don't... can't breathe... awful!"

He hugged her calmly as his heartbeat slowed down even more, making it seem like it was almost stopping.
For him, it was indeed stopping.
And little did he know that if he didn't learn the Ripple in the next few days, his heart will stop, and no defibrillators would be able to bring him back.
"There there.
Calm down, she isn't here for now, she isn't in control yet." His breathing became ragged again, however, this time, it was natural.
The reason for him learning the Ripple and mastering it so early were because of two main reasons.
The first being that his semblance eats away at him and actually rots his lungs like gangrene and the second being that ever since he was six, his heart was incredibly slow, at first, it didn't bother him, since he didn't know anything else, but once Leonard accidentally hit him over the head with the Ripple, for a few seconds, all of these problems were solved and right afterwards, they came back, hitting him harder than a bullet train, and the only way to heal him would be the Ripple.
Even his mother wouldn't be able to save him.

She pulled away, struggling against his grip as her voice became clearer.
"No... no, let go... please... let me go, just let me go..."
Her voice was small, and frightened--nothing at all like the persona she'd adopted to save herself.
"...I'm scared..."
