Northlake Academy ~ A part fantasy, part futuristic RP

"It's not much, but I like it." Summer grinned at Celia before groaning at Flynn. "Please, don't tease me. At least it sounds like one good thing about this place." She said, getting up and closing the door while finishing her bread roll. Multitasking. "I don't know if I actually have a roommate. There's another bed and other stuff-" She gestured at the furniture across from her. "But it looks like no-one's moving in..." She sighed. "Hey, I'm fine being on my own. What about you guys, have you met your roommates? Are they weird?"

 

[MissInnocent]

Celia thought for a moment, and said "I'm sure there's someone in my room, but I haven't met them yet. With my luck, they'll either be an ego-crazy maniac with fireballs everywhere, or a shy, blush-at-everything girl. But hey, I don't mind. As long as they don't snore.". She sighed, laying down on Summer's bed. "At least you've got a bed free."

 

[Runner]

"Sorry." Flynn stayed standing, and commented with a grin to Summer, "If you ended up without a roommate, you could push the two beds together and then have a massive bed to yourself. And not to mention, a lot more room for you to use up. I'm jealous, cuz' I think I have a roommate. But I'd love to be able to have a bed big enough for me to sleep at an 180 degree on without my feet sticking out."

 

[tamaturtle]

"...That is actually a really good idea, Flynn." Summer said, impressed. "I'll have to work on that later..." She lay down on the other bed, seeing as Celia had claimed the other one, and sighed. "You know, I guess this place is growing on me. Okay, so lessons today were pretty rubbish, along with the teachers, but the rooms are okay and the food's apparently great..." she lowered her voice. "But what's with the whole 'powers and non humans' thing going on?"

 

[Runner]

Flynn was about to reply when something occurred to him. "It'd be great to finally be able to talk about that, but hey, what if this room is bugged? I mean, for all we know, they could be listening to us right now- or watching us," Flynn went ahead and sat down on the floor against the wall, folding his knees up to his chest. "The thought is pretty scary, but it's a possibility. I wouldn't be surprised if that was the case."

 

[tamaturtle]

Summer frowned. "Huh. I hadn't thought about that. But if that's the case, there's an easy way around it..." She stood up and moved over to her chest of drawers, pulling on open and pulling her sketchpad out of it. Sitting nearer the others, she scribbled a quick message on it. Foolproof. SO, do you think other people here have powers or is it just us? Bit of a coincidence...

 

[MissInnocent]

Celia watched with a hint of amusement, putting her arms behind her neck. "Knowing them, they definitely do." she said, sighing. Swining he legs on the bed, she got up and sat down on the floor. The floor was hopefully clean -- the rest of the room looked clean, anyway.

 

[Runner]

"Definitely so. There's no other reason why somehow all three of us happen to have ended up in a place like this and all have powers. This school is likely meant to be a school for teens with powers.. And teens who aren't human. Why would they gather us all up in a place like this, though? Almost like cattle.." Flynn stared at the ground, deep in thought.

 

[tamaturtle]

"Or we're just the Chosen Ones brought together by destiny." Summer grinned, giving up with the sketchpad and throwing it aside. Then she became serious, looknig at the duvet and running her hand over the patterns on it. "...Do you think they'll actually use us in the war at all? Like... actually send us into Europe or whatever?" She shuddered. "God, I hope not. All I can do is draw stuff, I'm useless at fighting. Dunno about you two though."

 

[MissInnocent]

Celia shrugged. "I can't really do much except from turning into a seal, and I really don't think that's going to help me fight -- really, probably make me worse. I mean, shooting a seal is much easier than shooting a human." she frowned, leaning back.

 

[Runner]

Hesitating before answering, Flynn finally commented, "If they sent me into a warzone.. Well... I guess my powers would definitely work in a fight. I could probably kill a lot of European soldiers just by sending out a stream of lightning from around me. Most people can't live if they get electrocuted full on by lightning. I don't want to kill anybody for no reason, though. But since I'd probably be attacked, I'd have no choice but to fight back."

 

[MissInnocent]

Celia smirked slightly, and commented "Well, that's a reason not to get on your bad side." She thought for a minute, then said "Do you think they know what powers we have? I mean, if they do, they're gonna want Flynn here, first, really. Hey, no offense.", pointing with her thumb at Flynn. He was the most "powerful" here by quite a bit -- seeing as Celia could mainly just move water and turn into a seal and Summer could turn drawn things into real things. Which aren't exactly the most useful skills to have on the battlefield.

 

[Runner]

"Hey, well, actually, both of you could be useful. Celia, you mentioned something about seductive powers, right? You could be used as a spy, and as for Summer, well, they could use you to draw them super powerful weapons of mass destruction." Flynn lowered himself to the point where only his upper back and head were on the wall. He was shocked at how much had happened in one day. He had woken up, 13 hours ago at home, and now, here he was- at an academy that looked like a prison, had nasty teachers, and had students that had powers or nonhuman students. It was all so bizarre.

 

[tamaturtle]

"Yeah..." Summer frowned, biting her lip. "I'd try it now, but I don't want to end up with a massive weapon in my room I can't get rid of... besides, I have no idea how to draw one." She sighed. "What sort of powers do you think other people here have? They must be something vaguely useful for a war or whatever." Summer made an exasperated sound. "God, I wish I knew what was going on, here and out thete!"

 

[MissInnocent]

"Er, vampires? I saw a lot of pale skinned, sharp teethed people in the assembly. They could be useful, I guess, with their super speed and such. But if there are vampires out there, there has to be vampire hunters as well." she said, frowning. Celia shuddered. "Never have liked vampires though. Not since Twilight." she groaned, saying Twilight as if it were a distasteful person.

 

[Runner]

"I think just about any power would be useful for war, somehow. I mean, even an illusion maker could probably make an illusions that would freak out the other side and lower their spirits.." Flynn trailed off, and then smiled a bit at the thought of Twilight and all the cheesiness in it. "God, Twilight. It made vampires suck. I'm pretty sure that all the vampires here won't suck, though. Hopefully."

 

[tamaturtle]

"Of course they'll suck. They'll sck your blooddddddddd." Summer grinned, pushing Flynn slightly. "Does that mean we have werewolves too? That'll be a bit of fun every month..." She sighed, figiting slightly. "Argh, I'm getting clastrophobic. I want to go and walk around the school a bit, but there's probably a curfew or something... plus," She grinned again. "If there IS vampires, I don't fancy running into them..."

 

[Runner]

"I think most of the vampires are probably in their room, locked up. Who knows what the staff would do to them." He couldn't help but laugh at the thought of Mrs. Partridge holding a cross at a vampire. "Maybe you could draw yourself an invisibility cloak like the one from Harry Potter," Flynn suggested, as he relaxed and shut his eyes for a few moments before opening them again.

 

[MissInnocent]

"Don't forget the elder wand and the ressurection stone then." sighed Celia, rubbing her eyes. Agh, she was bored. She needed an adventure, after this boring old school. "There probably is a curfew, but we don't know the curfew do we?" she grinned, undoubtably hinting. "After all, Flynn and I need to go back to our rooms, and we don't know this place that well. We've only been here for, what, 5 hours. Getting lost in this place is quite easy." she said, biting her lip excitedly.

 

[Runner]

"I think we'll be able to tell when it's our curfew- when we start to hear all the students heading back to their dorms. In other words.. Probably soon. Since we came up early from dinner, we had some extra time to hang out here, but I'm pretty sur-" As if right on cue, the noises of footsteps and voices came from outside the door, signaling curfew. Flynn stood up. "Well, Celia, we'd better get going. Good night, Summer." Flynn began to walk towards the door.
