It's okay ZaddieCaso :) I hope your exams went okay btw :D

Sonnet

She left with him gladly, happy to be freed from the questions and staring of the other pupils. She was relieved that Iclisa had let them go, but she had a feeling she might have upset her.
They stepped out into the cool night, starting to walk across the velvety grass of the school grounds. Her heart was beating disjointedly and out of rhythm as she tried to think of something to say to him. Again, she was lost for words for the second time this night. It didn't help when he looked up at her with those intense grey eyes of his. She tried to speak but her words tripped over one another until she decided it was best to be quiet for a moment.
She shivered slightly as they ambled across the dark grounds; night had brought a cool breeze with it.
He looked at her and said in a light voice, "You cold? You can have my jacket."
He started shrugging it off, but she stopped him by placing a hand on his arm. "Such a gentleman," she teased, glad that her words seemed to be flowing more smoothly now. "I thought you wanted to run anyway? That would warm me up."
They stopped walking for a moment, as he pretended to yawn.
"I'm too tired..." he stretched out his arms, but stopped half way through and peeked at her with one eye, ruffling his dark hair.
"Race you!" he suddenly blurted out, running so fast it made Sonnet's head spin.
No way am I going to catch up unless I cheat, she thought deviously, laughing out into the dark night as she shifted, catching him easily in her serval form.
"Cheater!" he called back at her laughing, not seeming to tire at all. She stopped and switched forms, nursing a stitch as he skidded to a halt some distance away.
"Getting tired?" he quipped, laughing as her as she regained breath.
"You know I can't run," she whined.
He grinned and folded his arms. "You suggested it."
She laughed as the pain subsided. "You did, back in the hall!"
He joined her again, jogging the distance back to her.
"C'mon, let's keep walking."
"My feet hurt."
He rolled his eyes. "Then I'll carry you. I want to show you something, it's only a little bit away from here."
He started to walk ahead a little bit, and on impulse, she reached for his hand. A little shocked at herself, she reddened slightly but was glad the darkness hid it well.
"Here," he said, when they came to a giant oak in the gardens. She smiled; the gardens of Tarragon were a beautiful place, night or day. The darkness switched all the bright chromatic colours into many hues of blue, but it was just as beautiful. They sat under the boughs of the tree, leaning against the rough bark.
She felt slightly disappointed when his hand slipped away from hers, but the feeling of nervousness was much more overpowering. He kept motioning as if to say something, but his mouth clamped shut again after every try. She took a deep breath.
"Quin?" He looked up at her. "I have a feeling you wanted to talk to me about something." Her stomach flipped suddenly, as she waited for his response.

*Sorry, I wasn't 100% sure what he wanted to say so I'll leave it up to you :P*

"oh yeah hi, I'm new, Lee that's my name " Lee said. I nodded and we started to walk towrds the mix and mingle meeting.

"Jason, so what's your power" I said smiling.

"Gravity manipulation or something everyone here seems realy good at usig their powers what's your probably a manipulatre of something." she asked.

"no I'm just a healer" I said.

Mikael

What did i care. Let the schools resident psychic try and read my thoughts. All she would get for her trouble would be a head full of static and a head ache. Then again one of the others would probably out me. Not Jaden but someone would. Jaden new this was personnal and for that much at least i had some measure of respect for my enemy. Still for now i was going to enjoy this little mixer. Jaden could wait. He knew i was never going to let up yet still he would face everyday as if someday i would grow tired of fighting and we would actually deal with our pasts.
I have looked into the eye of the storm and stared it down. I am an adrenaline junky and i know no fear.

Iclisa

I came back from the toilet at the edge of the hall. Sonnet had left with some guy whom she knew a few minutes ago. I pulled my long sleeve and stared at my wrist. It was clean with no wounds or scratches but it was not like that a few minutes ago. I had scratch my wrist with a metal watching blood flow from it and in all due respect, i did not feel squimy or scared. For each time, i scratched my wrist with a piece of metal, there was something within me that feels good every time i do it.
I had alwasy done this during the war. With each painful event that had happened, i scratched my wrist just to let it go.

By the time i went out of the bathroom, the whole hall was full of students talking and chatting. I walked past several of them.

"No, i am just a healer," i stopped and i turned around and saw a boy and a girl talking to each other. The girl had long black hair with pale green eyes and skin. SHe looked sick. i stared at the other boy she is talking and i tried in my mind to try to talke to them. I was a passive person. i never talk to anyone unless needed and though i dread to talk, i gave a sign and try to approach them.

"So you are a healer as well?" i interrupted them while i pinch myself. "The...Then i am not the only one?"

"You are a healer too?" the girl asked me with a smile.

"Well, you can say that i am. Have you been to the doctor?"

'Why?"

"Well," i squirmed a little. I never like to brag. "he did some test to check on how my healing rate are."

"I've been there. He tried to scrape a few of my skin to know how long my skin would heal it." the boy replied.

"That's disgusting," the girl bellowed "Did it hurt?"

"Well not neccesarily, the injection was painful but that was all there to it." the boy said noticing that he was wearing a blue hat. The girl gave an awkward expression before she could give a sigh.

"Oh yeah what's you're name by the way? I am Jason,"

"Lee-Ann but you can call me Lee if you want," the girl smiled before she offered her hand.

"Iclisa," i replied shaking her hand weakly. "its nice to meet you,"



*i was talking to Jason and LEE

Lee~

"Iclisa." the girl replied sheepishly, she seemed nervous as if she thought me or Jason were going to attack her. I smiled to myself at that thought, at least I wasn't the only one scared here.

"So does this place have fights often?" I asked.

"Just depends on how some people feel. And if your in class they put us against each other to see how we fair." Jason said.

"Oh. . .I hope I won't be put up against someone to strong." I blurted out my thoughts. They both looked at me with different expressions. "So. . .um. . .how are the people I should watch out for?" I asked trying to get the conversation going.

"We may be friends and all, but if were being chased by crazy flesh eating zombies. I won't lie. . .I'll trip you."~ Me after watching the hills have eyes.

After the other girl got there I just sat and replayed the scene in the woods, how easy it had been to slip into that state of primal instinct. The pleasure I felt when I grabbed the deer kept on jumping out from the rest, but it never got any easier to see. I shivered and pushed my chair back.

Ashlyn looked up at me and I said, "Im hungry, not for deer. I'm gonna see if theres any food at the front. Wanna come?"

Ashlyn

I was starting to wander. Might as well meet new people. I streched. I really just wanted to go to my dorm. I wonder if anyone would notice if I just happened to slip out of here. I looked around. no one seemed to be paying attention to me. I smiled.

I walked casually past a couple groups of people. I saw Sonnet and Quin. I sighed. I wish I could talk to someone like they did. It was pretty much impossible for me. I didn't like people period. They bored me.

I accidently bumped into someone and appologized without looking at them. My destination was coming up. I pressed my hand against the door and walked out side. Someone grabbed my wrist. I sighed. Someone must have seen me walk out. I turned to face the person. I could easily wipe their mind clean, but I knew I should't.It wasn't right and I was already weak from earlier.

<Anyone can jump in. Poor Ashlyn, she has no one to talk to (:>

Iclisa

"I am not sure," i responded, "i have only been here a few days ago. I am not really sure who you to watch for? i know there was a fight here but that was all."

"Sorry," Jason responded

"Its okay," Lee answered back and for a few mintes tehre was an uncomfortable silence between us. None of us do not know what to talk. My mouth was dry of ideas and i tried o hold them back but failed.

"Hey," JAson soon said, "How about we take a walk outside. I heard that the school gardens are a beautiful place at night. Have you been there?"

I shook my head. The only places i have been was the classes, my room and the doctor's clinic. Lee shook her head too. At least tehre was someone here who is also new.

"that's a shame," Jason said, "Its really amazing. Do you want to come?"

"Sure, i guess so..." Lee said.

"How about the meet and greet?" i asked curiously.

"Well, here it is," Jason replied, "I meet new people, Lee and IClisa and you guys meet each otehr. So how about going outside."

i thought about it for a moment before i nodded my head in approval. There was not much else was tehre to do if i would neglect their offer. We started walking out of the hall and towards the gardens.

Hey, formertywcwriter, why don't you get your character to mingle with the others? It's probably the easiest option. Writers block is a total pain, I know how you feel unfortunately. :( :lol:

I'm waiting on ZaddieCaso to reply with Quin before I can go any further so why don't you have Mikael join Lee, Iclisa and Jaden on their walk? :)
