It looks like we can give everyone a list of minimum specs for running City of Titans. Please keep in mind that this is 'for now' until we are able to add more graphics and other system refinements. Currently you will need :
Windows 10 or later required; no Intel integrated graphics like UHD, must have AMD or NVIDIA card or discrete chipset with 4Gb or more of VRAM
At least 16GB of main DRAM.
These stats may change as we continue to test.

Sings Loudly filled Buckey,

Sings Loudly filled Buckey, Misty, and anyone else who could understand him in on what little they knew. *It seems one of the new students panicked and created this pocket dimension and an elven stronghold inside it. We need to find this person and get them to calm down. And I think she's up there.* He indicated the tree with his nose. *Might be a he, hard to tell with humans sometimes... But in the crown is where an elf-lady would have her war room. And even if she's not there, we'll be able to see farther.* He began climbing the tree with all the skill one would expect from a cat.

AIko began circling the tree in the other direction. She didn't pause, but recorded everything she saw and heard, and transmitted batches to Nightstrike periodically, or immediately on seeing something interesting. Like those anthropomorphic lizards, for instance....

Sebastian grinned at his

Sebastian grinned at his small little army of mixed skeletal creatures that crawled out of the swamp mire to crowd behind him ''Hmmm this little dimension Kami created changes the rules of necromantic reanimation. I rarely ever get this many skeletons of all kinds without spending a good chunk of my energy!'' Sebastian remarked excitedly, also noticing that the skeletons were actually magical creations....not undead of any kind, more of a manifestation of what this dimension could provide to his reanimation. He turned and spoke to his skeletons that were idly standing behind him waiting for an ordered ''Aim to incapacitate any hostile enemies you see. Do not attack anything that isn't actively trying to maim, injure, or kill us.''

When AIko sent her the

When AIko sent her the capture of the lizards, Nightstrike began moving back in her direction. She soon rendezvoused with the young android and began observing the lizards for herself. They appeared to be flickering like holograms, but also had a strange magical aura about them that appeared to have computer code running through it. Since AIko, to her knowledge, could not see what she saw, Nightstrike described the odd auras to her. "If they have auras, that should mean we can destroy them. But I'm not sure because I've never dealt with a mixing of magic and holographics before."

Putting yourself in another persons shoes emotionally is something that everyone has to experience eventually. It's part of learning to be a human being. Roleplayers do it for fun.

"Well, the holographics are generated from the danger room equipment, aren't they? And since we don't have contact with ESSI, that should mean there are parts of the danger room here... Unless it's the spells that are maintaining them now..." AIko shook her head. "Either way, the gripping hand is that these are likely what the test program was throwing at Kami when she cast...this." She gestured to indicate their current surroundings. "If they aren't around, or if she sees someone fighting them, it may help her regain her composure..."

The Lizards were high up on

The Lizards were high up on the tree, though they were wielding several objects that were wholly magical constructs. Anyone with any concept of a realistic weaponry would know that non of them would be functional under real circumstances. They didn't seem capable of seeing or detecting the two of them, though they did turn and start heading their direction, the two heads of the main lizard swiveled around, searching for something. The flickered again and roared, the magical energy seemed to be messing with the photonic matrix of the monsters quite a bit.

Kami had virtually lost the capacity to act, she fumbled with her cards and dropped her hand. She looked at the magic pool and then the door which wasn't even concealed, but at the top of a long stair case running down the middle. Sadly the angle she saw them at and their cloaking didn't allow her to view them, no detection magic...

___________________

"Huh? Oh, yeah!" Tobias glanced at the army of dead, and winced a little... "She really got into this card game, first version of this spell just made miniatures of the card monsters. Then she made big ones, I had no idea she could do this... She must have spent hours researching and writing this spell..." He shook his head and started heading towards the tree.

"I can sense a few others across the way... Distance is strange in here, usually my aura vision tops out at fifty feet, but that's way more than a mile away..." He nodded towards the tree... "I don't recognize most of the aura's except Kami's at the top of the tree... What the heck...? What's my cat doing here?"

*Bucky!?* Tobias tried thinking at the mental connection to his familiar.

__________________

*Ah, Tobias, I thought you would be in another class, I found another cat!* Bucky called back as he climbed up a branch. Bucky stopped on a branch and sharpened his claws in the bark, glancing over at Sings Loudly.

*My.... Well human isn't accurate... My charge? has entered the pocket world, should we attempt to join our parties?* Bucky asked, he could pop through walls, sure, but teleporting several people wasn't in his capacity. He squinted as he looked through the super position to another possible spot he could be in, then blinked... *And since we're already within a realm based in probability, I don't believe I can reposition myself...* His ears fanned back in annoyance as he looked down, taking a rest.

Before he entered the pocket

Before he entered the pocket dimension "Esse inform these student's teachers they won't be returning to classes. Well not Sebastian of course but tha other ones including anyone else that got stuck in there. Also send someone to take over my class. I don't know how long we be in that pocket so I need a substitute for the time being." Then he entered the pocket reality with Tobis and Sebastian.

"Hel ya say? Hel as in H, E, L or Hell as in H, E, L ,L ? By the way you need to work on your threat assessment. What were ya going to try to do? Torture me till I tell you where your sister was? I'm undead you could punch a lot of holes in me and I just shrug, would have to do something like remove body parts. That would be kind of non-helpful. Ya told me she was your sister, if I was really a villain then I could have used that against ya. Tha whole Do as I say or she suffers bit. On top of that tactically you could have kept ya spikes hidden and used them as a trump card surprise."

"Because I am responsible for both of ya, ya listen to me fully, no disagreement or running off to prove ya bravery. Normally I keep all my magic to myself, I use it for everything from talking, moving, to healing. However I have tha feeling I would have to rely on numbers." He looked to Sebastian "You think those skeletons are useful... I got a direct link to a Netherworld." Motioning before him he let his magic flow out creating six dark portals at ground level. Out of them rose zombies, three normal looking undead zombies, two in battle armor, and one rising via some kind of magic it didn't have any legs just a skeleton torso and ragged robes a fully empowered Lich. "You summoned Us?" "Right Basarab, we got a little girl to save." "Let her die... let her suffer..." "QUIET!" There was power in that shouting command not just the force of Hel's magic but the pure raw power of Ron's own personality. "I am in command here Basarab and I am yar Master. You shall do as I bid, that is saving people." "As you command."

Looking to Tobis "Don't worry He's more talk than true bark. He do as I will and not a bit more." Glancing over to where Tobis looked "Mile away or so? Alright we meet up with them." He then raised his hand and drew up the shadows creating a transportation portal to where the others were. "If ya hear voices, moans, and screams when ya walk through just ignore them it's just the damned." Noting the coming Qui Imps. "Larry, Moe, Curly. Go and intercept delay tactics. Then come join us on the other side of tha portal. Leroy and Bob you two guard us. If anything gets past Sebastian's skeletons and the three stooges ya intercept. Basarab ya keep a look out for anything larger than those buggers. And tell me if ya see something."
------------------------------------------------

Misty screamed as shadows started swirling to form the portal Ron was creating. "Something Happening people. Dark shadow stuff!"

"Errr, may have been H, E, L,

"Errr, may have been H, E, L, L, I don't know, all I do know is I found out about the place and the fact that it's the place of my biological fathers tribe of demons. I found a small dimensional pocket and freed a demon who claimed to be Chiron the "Lord of Violence" from demon summoners looking to enslave him." Tobias even put up the finger quotes, his aura ebbing to a dull pulse as they conversed.

"I went back with the help of a spell book he gave me that had some basic spell circles to create gates, had to fight to gain audience and when I was fighting in the arena I saved Kami." He shook his head again. "Her whole tribe was wiped out by another race of 'demons', they went by Laserta, for all I know it could just be a hellish parallel world. Though there were all the references to various mythos, and Dante's inferno, so it's up in the air, H, E, L, seemed more probably than H.E.L.L, given that I didn't see burning pits of lava and people being jabbed with pitch forks. "

"I... Er, sorry, I didn't mean to react that way..." He muttered. "I mean... I'm protective of Kami, okay?" He averted his eyes... "I didn't honestly think you were a villain, and I'm not much for subterfuge and planning..." He bristled and reformed his blades when the zombies talked of killing his sister, then exhaled slowly, obeying Rotten Luck... "Okay..." He exhaled again... "Lets get to it." The only affect that seemed to happen to Tobias as the dark portals and Netherworldly energy seemed to become more prominent, was the fading of his light aura, while the dark seemed to relish it. The whelps that just spawned were easily decimated by the undead mini army they summoned, Tobias was going to fly to the tree, but since portals were offered and forming, he waited for Ron's cue to get in.

*Absolutely. If your..

*Absolutely. If your...charge...is the sort to rush into dangerous situations, he'll need you to pull him out again. Or her. Why is she here? Or he?* Sings Loudly waited for an answer, but the silence was cut very short by a spirit screaming. He sniffed out the aura, then projected a message to Misty. *Don't worry, that's Rotten Luck, he's a hero. But he also is linked to the Norse goddess of the dead, so you may want to keep your distance if you're not ready to move on. But if you died fighting you can claim you're not in Her jurisdiction.*

''Okay Coach, just tell me

''Okay Coach, just tell me what to do and I'll do it to the best of my ability to aide Kami and help ease Tobias's troubled mind over there. Nice zombies by the way....'' he responded back with a amused smile, Rotten Lucks zombies were somewhat atypical accept for the armored ones and the Lich. He has never seen a Lich before...and it's quite interesting too see his first one being summoned to aide a Ghoul.

Rotten looked at Tobis and in

Rotten looked at Tobis and in his mind 'so this is the one he wants to forge into a weapon. You still going to let him Hel?' Hel's own voice echoes in his thoughts ' How many lives could he save by dying? His Father thinks it was his idea. Nothing happens in my realm I'm not aware of, not even the thoughts of others.'

"Alright step through and be careful. We don't know what on the other side I have to be last to hold the portal open."

---------------------------

"So because I died trying to be a hero he can't drag me to ... wherever?" Misty looked to the portal then. "Oh well. So think I could fly up to the top of the tree and find the girl?"

*Right. Hel gets murder

*Right. Hel gets murder victims and natural causes. Heroes and warriors get split between Odin and Freya. Hopefully She wouldn't think it worthwhile to bring Them in...* Sings Loudly considered for a moment. *Be sneaky. And if you see her, come back down right away; don't want her more scared from seeing a ghost. Or him.*

As Rotten Luck's portal formed, anyone with line-of-Magesight to AIko might notice that her aura flared slightly...

*Oh, that's definitely Tobias

*Oh, that's definitely Tobias, the girl at the top of this tree is his sister.* Bucky glanced around. *I imagine he sensed her energy disappearing, strange one, that...* Bucky nodded, remaining in place, watching the portals. *Hasn't quite got as much sense as a cat, so, I watch out for him. I suppose you could consider the girl at the top of the tree my charge as well, but she's less endangered than the boy. Ah, here he comes.* Bucky nodded and waited patiently, eying the top of the tree quietly.

_____________________

Tobias nodded and stepped into the portal first, a shiver ran through him and he closed his eyes, the demon in his head shouting obscenities and clawing at the surface, this dimension was much more subject to the incoming energies of the others there. He stepped out of the portal and was already in a combative stance, he was squinting though, he couldn't barely make out Misty, the aura of a ghost. He'd never seen one before so it was unfamiliar to him.

"Who's there?" He wondered, stepping to the side of the portal to ensure there wasn't any pile up. His light aura had all disappeared, leaving only the darkness. He looked up at the tree and waited quietly. *Who else is here Bucky?*

___________________

The Lizards still wandered around the fortress, going up the spiral stair case around the upper outside of the tree, their formations trying to cover all sides. They were quickly approaching the level Kami's pocket room was hidden in and she was not trying everything she could to do something, drawing a few new runes. She finally managed to find another monster to summon, the elven warrior standing guard at the door.

The sky above still seemed to be flickering even more. People on the outside of the bubble could likely see through into the pocket dimension through a few translucent sections, though it was very strange to look at for too long, giving a sudden sense of vertigo if you stared too long. The bubble however had started to recede, and Kami started to grow more tired as the effort of maintaining the dimension for so long wore on her.

Misty nodded "I see what I

Misty nodded "I see what I can do. I fade out so she won't see me, might mess around with anyone near her if she's in danger." She faded out and flew up to the top of the tree before she tries to fly through the wall she reached out to see if she could phase through. What do you know Misty learning to be careful.

Once her hand phased through she entered the room where Kami and the guarding elf. She then spotted the Lizards as she made her sout run. Thinking she might somehow give herself away if she tried something she looked around for anything she could throw at the Lizards. Oh forget it she saw the kid needed action and so outside the door so Kami wouldn't see she materialized and drew on the Lizards own energy. "OKay Uglies lets see if you can fly." Then using her telekinetic force she pushed them back.
---------------------------------------------------------------

Once Sebastian and Tobis went through he sent he nodded to Basarab "Follow us don't stick around here picking off small fries." He then walked through the portal and appeared on the other side the portal closed. Followed soon by the Zombies porting to where he was at. "Okay who's in charge over here? If no one lets get going we got a kid to save. Any of ya got teleport powers? Getting Tobis up to his sister would be tha fastest way to settle this. I could try porting, but inside a building I don't know could be dangerous. Not to mention I run the risk of scarring that girl even more."

Nightstrike whispered a spell

Nightstrike whispered a spell into her hand and a small hummingbird composed of energy formed. She spoke to it briefly concerning what she and AIko had found, as well as their current position. She then sent the summons off to find Sings Loudly and looked to AIko. "Ready to kick some holographic scaly butt?"

"Absolutely. Even if it's

"Absolutely. Even if it's magic holographic scaly butt." AIko began visually scouting a path up the tree. A copy of Mama Millie's flight pack would be useful in situations like this...

The messagebird started gaining altitude, then went into a power dive.

Having heard Rotten Luck's greeting and request; Sings Loudly (and Bucky, presumably?) stepped through the shadows to emerge within conversational range. Not being sure if the draugr could understand his normal speech, he used his communication spell. *I think the hunter in darkness is in charge, though I don't know her name among humans.*

He was interrupted by the arrival of the messagebird, but shortly he continued. *She and the construct-girl were scouting the base of the tree, and are about a third of the way around sunwise. They have spotted several construct-lizards, nearing the top. Bucky and I were climbing. The spirit you may have heard screaming went ahead. And I can get several human-sized people into any space that they will fit into, as long as we neither begin nor end the trip in direct sunlight. While this is Tobias' sister's stronghold, it is still an Elven stronghold, so even if she won't let us in, I still have authority to enter.* He looked rather smug, even for a cat.

Nightstrike pulled a spare

Nightstrike pulled a spare wrist grapnel and glove from her butt pouch, handing it to AIko. She showed her how to put it on, fire it, ascend / descend the line, and release it. "It's a back-up, so you've only got 20 firing charges. Also, in a pinch, it can be used as a weapon."

She then fired her own grapnel up the trunk of the tree. It stuck about seventy-five feet up. "See you at the top." she said, zipping into the air.

"Alright, get Tobias up there. Calming tha girl the top priority. The rest of us can handle the Lizards." He looked to his arriving Zombies "Alright lets go smash some lizards. Sebastian ya with me. Tobias get tha cat to take ya to ya sister." As he ran he looked to Sabastian "How good are ya with that ice powers? These are lizardmen, true holographic but tha simulation still follow set of rules. Cold blooded beings hate cold. Get my planing kid?"
____________________

Misty knocked on the door. "Kami? Help is here girl I keep the baddies away. You calm yourself figure out what you need to do. Others are coming as well we protect you." She still stayed outside the door and drew on the energy of one of the Lizards then started flinging random items she found in the hallway at them.

Sebastian started to fell

Sebastian started to feel some serious exhaustion from all the power he spent earlier but he decided to ignore it to complete the task at hand. Giving wide-toothed grin in response to Rotten Luck asking for his him to assist him fight of the lizard simulations, his hands and eyes emanating an icy blue as he initiated an offensive stance ''Pretty good for this occasion. Just give me the signal coach and I'll ice them.''

AIko accepted the launcher

AIko accepted the launcher and attached it to her left wrist. Her first shot hit a branch about 18 meters up, about 80% of Nightstrike's cast. She aided the motor by leaping just before the line went taut, and when she reached the other end she grabbed the branch and swung up on top of it, removing the grapple before standing to find her next anchor point and fire the grapple into it.

Maybe she intended it, maybe

Maybe she intended it, maybe she didn't, but Misty's push at the lizards chucked one lizard clean off of the tower. The railing beside the creature, snapped and the lizard plummeted, even though there were two or three balconies between the lizard and the ground, they all snapped under the weight and force of the creature falling. Soon everyone on the ground would see the lizard bouncing down the trunk of the tree.

Kami got to her feet and wobbled over to the forcefield at the door.

"Misty!" She leaned on the Elven warrior. "I just got so scared..." She started to explain, though it was obvious she was running low on energy. The other lizards who had been staggered by Misty's attack regained their footing and charged at the barrier, though they were soon pelted by broken branches and willow fronds. The lizard she blew off the walkway had dropped it's weapon, lucky for Misty as it was picked up and thrown through the

____________________

Bucky did take the shadow step back to the group with Sings Loudly, cleaning his paw quietly as he listened to the rest planning. He

*Might I suggest a Pincer attack?* Bucky would chime as he idly watched the lizard land and shatter into particles. *I could position myself within the room, cast a shadow within the Throne Room, it seems her focus has left that place.* Bucky nodded and then walked around the tree, a moment later he was slipping out from behind the throne room. The large glass mage light at the center of the room cast a huge shadow into the quarter of the room with the throne now that Bucky was standing in the way.

___________________

"I dunno about the rules about lizards, but I know the rules of rune fortress, forfeit, defeat or win, since we didn't see an enemy fortress on the way here, then we have to defeat the enemy boss for Kami to win." Tobias nodded, then watched as the lizard bounced down the tree.

"No need to worry about me coach, I can fly up." He nodded towards the path the bouncing lizard took down the tree, then he launched himself into the air and sped up that way. A few branches here and there helped him mark the broken path to the balcony. He waited, just below the platform the Lizards were on, for the cats to give him a signal for when to attack. He knew there was no way he'd get beat the large Lizard without help, though he understood now why Kami wasn't able, even with the constructs being fairly weak.

*Ready when you are.* Tobias sent to Bucky, who relayed it to the group, to Sings Loudly, as soon as possible.

With Tobias soaring up, and Bucky having used his own techniques and now casting a big shadow, Sings Loudly extended his spell to Rotten Luck and Sebastian before leading the way through the shadows to emerge from Bucky's shadow upstairs. *So, which way to this Enemy Boss Tobias mentioned?*

Making sure that AIko was

Making sure that AIko was keeping up with her, Nightstrike continued ascending the trunk in 20-meter intervals. Soon enough, they were nearing the top and Nightstrike hit the top branches at about the same time that the other group was reaching the throne room. Nightstrike sidled into a shadow and eyed the Lizardmen as they attempted to penetrate the barricade into the Throne Room. She drew her sword silently and was about to start creeping up on them when she noticed that there was one more set of branches above them.

Smiling, Nightstrike fired her grapnel and it pulled her up to this last set of branches. With a few leaps, she was poised over the Lizardmen, ready to literally get the drop on them. Before jumping, she looked back to make sure that AIko had been able to stay with her.

AIko had her grapple aimed

AIko had her launcher aimed at a branch above and on the far side of the lizardmen from Nightstrike. She held her aim rock steady as she turned her head slightly to nod at Nightstrike. She fired and the grapple went right past the rearmost lizard's head to sink into the branch. AIko didn't wait to see the lizard's reaction, she leapt up and forward, passing under the branch it was standing on. As the line went taut that branch became the new center of AIko's swing with a rapidly shortening radius that within seconds would put her right behind the lizard...

"Me and Sebastian would take

"Me and Sebastian would take the low road. Come up the path the lizards took get them from behind. I don't think Kami would be calmed by a bunch of Zombies, and Skeletal beasts coming out of the shadows." He headed of the Fortress main entrance to start up the path to the higher chambers. His three basic Zombies provided the main alpha strikes as the two Death Knights came up behind them and started firing dark magic at distance threats and sword swings at those that got near. A ring of shadows seem to rise up around Rotten inside it was normal all seemed fine. Just an outline of shadowy mist, outside of it thought Sebastian and Ron were hard to see two shadowy figures in a dome of darkness.

"First rule of a fight Sebastian, think. Don't matter what kind of fight ya in, thinking always part of it. Most fights are won or lost in a first few moments of a battle. There two basic strategies, some would say more but it's all just find points after the first choice. Choice one, give it all ya got and don't hold back, choice two keep ya self paced using only what ya really need. Now I'm going to ask you, what are the benefits of either choice?"

He summoned up a 7th being this one was made out of pure shadows. The shadow man started casting various darkness spells over the Lizardmen they came acrossed. Making it easier for the undead Horde to advance.
______________________________________

"I know you got scared Kami. Remember you are in a school full of superheroes, we wouldn't abandon you. Now we are in your creation so you need to think, tell us what we need to do to end this." She blinked as a lizard got to near and it's claws went through her head. It hurt.. well not quite like if she was flesh and blood. Still it was painful in a way having her self dispersed so.

Something snapped and Misty plunged her fist into the lizard and tried to drain it of it's very soul essence (or what would be the digitized version of it) then with that power she then send a blast of pure destructive force at the other lizardmen she saw. (soul drain, followed by Dark Obliteration).

Blinking coming to she looked at the results, "Yeah you stay safe in the room, others are coming as well. I make sure none of these things get past me."

Tobias waited until he sensed

Tobias waited until he sensed the others, he wasn't really worried about how, just that they were close enough, then he sent another mental ping to Bucky.

*We're sending them your way, make sure she opens it.* He hoped the cat understood his pronouns. As he floated zipped over the edge of the walkway and landed in front of the Lizards as Misty drained one completely. It flickers and bursts like the other one That left just a two more, Tobias lunged into the two headed Lizard with both blades from his wrist.

______________________________

Bucky sighed as they entered the room with Kami. *He's already attacking...* Bucky walked over and brushed up against Kami's leg. *Calm down, get away from the door and finish the test, the portal's expanding.*
______________________________

"I just got flustered, er very scared I must have forgotten something, so, okay, can't leave the door up Misty..." Kami bit her lip and backs away from the door. She was still wobbling on her feet, so she didn't to much besides move her elf forward to help, though Tobias was kicking the large lizard through the door while the Zombies and dark hexes seemed to arrive. Only one of the small lizards survived the assault but was definitely out numbered. Just the boss left, getting up from inside the door.

The elf moved in to attack while Kami backed up to the throne near Sings Loudly, the large two headed lizard got up and let out a cone of green mist from one mouth. The elf ended up getting pushed back from it and landed on the door frame, still 'alive'.

Nightstrike dropped out of

Nightstrike dropped out of the tree and landed on the shoulders of a Lizardman holo-construct as AIko swung up behind her target. The drop plus the weight of her body and armor was enough to drive the Lizardman into the ground. She drove her sword into the base of its skull, then withdrew the blade and did a forward roll off the body as it dissipated. Coming out of the roll, she unleashed a kick that slammed into the shin of a charging Lizardman. It went down hard and she swept her blade through its neck as it dropped.

Still crouched and without looking, Nightstrike swung her sword behind her and it bit deep into the torso of the final Lizardman on her side, nearly cutting it in half. The holo-construct vanished and she rose smoothly to her feet to see how AIko was doing with her three.

AIko struck the last lizard

AIko struck the last lizard with a simple hand strike, delivered with all of her strength and fairly good form. It burst into glowing strands of code. She moved through the dissipating cloud and grabbed the next two by the frills behind their necks and slammed their skulls together, producing a larger burst of glowing code. She looked past Nightstrike and gestured to indicate a door where an interior light was casting a shadow that looked like a two-headed lizard...

Sings Loudly stepped in front of Kami, facing the lizard. He drew on the energy of the stronghold, and grew. He now looked like he weighed fifty pounds, and all of it muscle and claws. He hissed at the lizard, and arched his back to appear even larger...

Misty now seeing it was clear

Misty now seeing it was clear well except for one more went to Kami "See I told you we help you out. Just got that big ugly one. No problem."

----------------------------------------------------------

Rotten and the undead horde came up and spotted Nightstrike and Aiko. "Good to see ya again Nightstrike. Left anything up here for us?"

"Oh, you know me, Rott. I

"Oh, you know me, Rott. I always save the best for last." Nightstrike said, gesturing at the door where the loud thumps of the giant two-headed Lizardman could be heard. Inserting her blade into the gap between the doors, she swept it downward to cut through any bars or locks. Turning sideways, she chambered her leg and unloaded a side kick into the doors, hopefully bursting them open.

"I'm sorry, the only way to

"I'm sorry, the only way to get out is to beat the lizards, and I forgot that so I panicked more..." Kami threw her hand up and a black bubble encapsulated her and Misty while Tobias disappeared completely, and the main doors burst open. The second head on the lizard belched some liquid that burned when it hit the ground, though it went out quickly. "I d-don't like lizards..." Kami shivered and backed away, the bubble rolling back with her towards the throne as she played another card.

"I um,,, Misty, can you keep pushing him back? I don't think the hologram sees you?" She shrugged, while her elf disappeared, replaced by a dragon about the size of the lizard. "Dragon's are different though...? Sorta..." Kami still stayed back while the dragon charged in and took the brunt of another poison breath.

___________________

Tobias disappeared, cloaked in shadows when the door burst open and spooked him.Then he remembered the others were supposed to regroup with them. The Dragon still wasn't as good as the Lizard.

"This explains everything, ya know." Tobias muttered, just within hearing range, which broke the passive 'don't see my blur' psychic field. "She shouldn't have played those buff cards either..." He added, charging back in, though he was not very effective, trying to dodge between two very large creatures in a large but now cramped room.

_________________

*Sigh, Kami, please, play something useful, or unplay something, can't you do that?* The cat glanced at the other cats, hoping they had some advice. *How come you weren't in this room before?*

"Ugh, this was a prototype spell, I still had to think variables at it, and yes, I could undo the armory." Kami pulled a card out of her wrist device and the lizard's armor disappeared.

When the doors burst open,

When the doors burst open, AIko was right behind Nightstrike, ready to put her shields up to block any area attacks, like that liquid fire...

Sings Loudly crouched back out of reach of the splashing fire, then when the armor disappeared, he lunged forward under the dragon to strike at the lizard's now exposed ankles. *There's a reason humans named this tendon after Achilles...*

"Don't worry I keep him away

"Don't worry I keep him away from you. Cross my heart and hope to.. er... Do what you need to Kami. We take care of Double Trouble." Misty said as she shiphan energy from the Two headed lizard and then redirected it to those she saw. First she focused on Nightstrike, the rush of energy and power would boost the woman's speed and reflexes.

---------------------------------------------

"Didn't expect to see ya at this party to tell ya tha truth Nightstrike. Saving youngsters from their own powers don't seem ya kind of thing. On tha other hand I'm glad ya are here. I know what to expect from ya." Rotten seemed to punched the air and a shadow seemed to blast from his fist and at the face of one of the two heads. Where the blast connected a shadowy cloud seemed to form of black mist. His attack was followed by his minions. The shadowman also started throwing shadow blasts at the Lizard as well as the Lich seemed to be drawing the shadows around the Lizards feet tendrils of shadows rise out of the darkness and went to grab the lizard. As Rotten's Zombies rushed forward for melee with the Lizard.

Nightstrike shrugged as she

Nightstrike shrugged as she flanked the two-headed Lizardman. "I happened to be in the area."

When Misty's magic hit her, Nightstrike grinned behind her mask and charged the beast, her movement a blur. She ran up its hunched back and plunged her sword into the juncture of the Lizardman's two tree trunk-like necks, then flipped up and over the pommel, between its necks, to hang from the sword. Her weight dragged the mono-edged blade downwards, slicing the creature open from neck to sternum. Nightstrike planted her feet and yanked the blade out, using her momentum to spin in mid-air and whip the blade across the Lizardman's belly as she fell. Landing in front of the creature, she dove between its legs and struck at the Achilles tendon that was not being attacked by Sings.

Nightstrike slid out from underneath the beast on her belly. She rolled over and kipped up, then spun to face it, ready to dive behind AIko's shield if it tried using its acid breath again.

The first blast hit the

The first blast hit the lizard right in the jaw knocking it's face upward, it was battered by with another dark blast. It tried to stomp at a zombie, but it's foot stuck in place by tendrils. Misty drained the lizard at the same time leaving the Two headed beast to roar and swipe at the zombie attackers as it was now unarmored, it probably only managed to hit once or twice in the mass of dark mist, grasping tendrils and energy siphoned off. Kami's dragon belched frost at the lizard from above, while Tobias was moving into position.

Next Nightstrike moved behind the lizard, while Tobias moved in front, the two heads were readying to belch the liquid and gas at the same time. Tobias jabbed his blades into the under side of it's jaws while Nightstrike sliced down it's back. The beast didn't quite cut clean in two but the glowing gash in it's flesh remained open while Tobias rolled out of the way, appearing after her struck and snapped of his blades, which still held its jaws closed while it thrashed. The beast was dragged to the floor while Night strike rolled away and she and the cats ensured it wouldn't walk anywhere.

The beast's mouths still tried to open but it only managed to rear up and burst the two cones over itself. The simulation was more realistic than a video game, so the lizard burst into flames from its own cones and promptly exploded into photons or whatever the hologram was.

Kami dropped her bubble then slumped into her throne, staring off for the moment. Around them the room would dissolve in a slightly different shimmer and the space seemed to close in. Though Kami didn't move from being seated. Wherever they were when they entered, the spell dropped them somewhere, safely, within the confines of the portals area, or near it. Kami ended up in a chair at a desk, now holding her face, making no noise at all, either brooding or something. Tobias was still hovering and retracted his blades.

"Okay, so when do I have your class?" Tobias asked, walking up to Nightstrike with a grin, at the moment right after victory forgetting about his sister.

________________________

*Are you okay Non-Elf?* Bucky asked Kami, nudging her, then standing away very stand offishly, but obviously looking at her.

"Y-yeah..." Kami was speaking through her teeth... "I'm trying not to panick...' She exhaled, a bit. "But I'm... I'm... I dunno? Cause I probably failed that test. And then I sent part of the school to my pocket dimension. Are any of those things against the rules Bucky? Are they gonna take Atrox or my staff away?" Kami whispered to the cat, stuck in quiet confusion about the entire process of school, the lizards were gone but there were still other reasons to worry.

*I do not know, probably not, close your eyes and breath.* Bucky headbutted her and Kami snorted, doing as he said. Bucky headbutted her arm, Kami sighed and stared at the cat.

"Do all cats on this dimension have magic?" She blinked, looking a bit drowsy, but whatever Bucky did had her calm.

*No, just a few, and we're not from around here.* Bucky nodded. *Neither are you, and I am a bit more curious.* He nodded and wandered off. Kami sat in the chair now and just leaned on the desk, just tired and confused looking.

Sings Loudly shrank back down

Sings Loudly shrank back down to normal size as the tree-fort faded. He examined his claws for traces of the lizard, but found only a trace of residual magic. He nodded to Bucky and Rotten and Nightstrike, and gave a long examination-type look to AIko. Then gave Kami a similar look, before using the shadow under her chair to go back to the control room in the other Danger Room.
________________________

AIko cut power to her force-field generators and reestablished contact with ESSI. While Tobias was distracted by Nightstrike, she walked over to where Kami was sitting, and knelt to bring their heads to the same level. "I think you may be the second youngest student at this school."

Cher was sitting reading a school pamphlet sitting on the bench next to Andy she tilted the paper as thing seem to be calming down "magically warded, who did they hire to do that, the local harry potter fan club?" She snickered "I know were I wont be pushing my powers, I would hate to make half the school glow in the dark because some cut rate contractor didn't insulate a door or something"

Nightstrike looked over at

Nightstrike looked over at Tobias. "I don't teach here. I was nearby and felt the spike in magic."

She nodded to AIko, Sings, and Rotten, then sub-vocalized a phrase and vanished. Once she was invisible and muffled, she moved off back towards the Control Room. Once in the Control Room, she reappeared and spoke another phrase. Her armor and weapons disappeared, leaving Roxanne in her training clothes again. Roxanne grabbed a temporary power suppression collar off the wall and jogged back to the room that Kami was in. She approached the girl slowly and knelt down next to her.

"Your name's Kami, right? I'm Roxanne, one of the instructors here. I know that you did what you did because you were scared, but I'm going to need you to put this on. You won't be able to feel or use your magic while it's on, but it will stop something like that from happening again." she said kindly, holding the collar out to the teenager.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"No kidding." Andy agreed, opening his eyes from his meditative trance. He was sitting cross-legged on the bench next to Cher and leaned in to look at the pamphlet. "Maybe there's a fault in the wards? Or maybe it was one of those crazy combinations of different power sources that seem to happen every week in Titan and break whatever governing rules affect both of them?"

Rotten found himself just

Rotten found himself just inches away from the Wall. "Hmm lucky me just a step more..." turning he looked to the Zombie horde "Did good work folks, I might get used to this style." He snapped his fingers sending them back to Hel and headed out to where the other students were "Esse how much time deviation did we get in there?" "Your Phone is now one minute behind. It's resetting the time now." "One minute not bad. OKay students brake time is over, given there not much time left for this class we can chill and I send ya to tha locker rooms. First thought that was an example of why we have this class. I'm not teaching how to use yar powers but how to recognize when and what triggers them. Any Questions?"
------------------------------------------------------------

Misty floated over to where Kami was "You didn't fail sweety. This wasn't that kind of test, it was so they know how strong you are and if what you can do was under control."

"Second Youngest? I'm eleven,

"Second Youngest? I'm eleven, who's younger if I'm too young?" She blinked, then turned as Roxanne returned. She did have a potent magical aura, and made no attempt to hide the point of her ears.

Kami's eyes went wide as she stared at the neck restraint. "But I won't be able to feel magic? My enchantments won't break will they? I can't carry all the stuff in my bag, I can control it, mostly... Not that field thing, please don't make me put it on, I've always felt magic." Kami really couldn't move away, she was stuck in the chair, but the had taken off the wrist device her cards were in.

"It was a card magic thing, I can't do anything else like that without this." She admitted, it was half true, but she couldn't possibly memorize the spell for the dimension, the monsters and traps were easier...

____________________

Tobias frowned, that was disappointing, then he turned around, having ended up in the room with Kami... "I should get back to class..." Tobias walked over to Kami and put his hand on her shoulder. "Look, if it turns out to be a problem, they'll take it off, or figure something else out. " Then he glanced at Roxanne. "She flips out when she see's lizards, could have told them that..." Tobias shook his head. "Listen to Bucky, okay?" Then Tobias left the testing room as well and walked back to chemistry class.

He lingered long enough to familiarize himself with the map. While looking at the school map he discovered, there was a mens room just below that testing room too! Though that hardly explained him being off course by most of the school building...

Tobias, of course, went into greater detail once at the front of class near the end of the period. According to him, he got lost and then trapped in a pocket dimension until some teachers rescued them from the place.

"Hm... There was a bathroom down the hall." Professor Leo added pointed in that general direction.

"Took a wrong turn... Or eight... I guess..." Tobias chewed his lip, then reached over and dropped the hall pass in the trash before heading back to his seat beside Ever.

__________________

Bucky watched Roxanne come and go, staying beside Kami and listening, though he would probably need to figure out what kind of creature from Hel she might be in order to figure out if shutting off magic to her was dangerous or not.

*If you feel dizzy or light headed, tell someone, but put it on, like your brother said.* Bucky nudged Kami, who then put the device on defeatedly, glancing at Misty, though once the device turned on she probably wouldn't be able to see Misty anymore. She exhaled quietly through her nose and folded her hands in her lap. *So?*

"Feels numb... And I can't see Misty as well anymore." Kami stood up and checked in her bag, pulling out her schedule and finding no difficulty with the enchantment.

Bucky sighed and nodded, meowing at Kami some more before going to find the other cat who knew elves. *Do what the paper says.* Then he darted under the chair, catching Sir Sings Loudly's scent and following it off to where it might belong.

Lexi walked with Kami for a bit. "I'm not even one yet. Most of my knowledge is either from the language databases that are part of my core programming, or from the internet. That was enough for me to pass the General Educational Development exams. Between that and my appearance, the administration here apparently decided to treat me as a junior. But if anyone says you're too young to be in this school, you can honestly say you're not the youngest... So, sempai, you have a problem with lizards? I'm still not up to speed on 'fear', but my moms say it has to be faced. Or faced down."

_______________________________________________________________________

When Bucky appeared in the control room, Sings Loudly turned towards him. *She has a lot of power, and a lot of fear, and not quite as much control as that much power needs. Does she have access to a mind-healer?*

"so...where did all the dead

"so...where did all the dead people come from, and go?" She said on the any questions thing "and coach would you mind testing this death trap out to hundred and fifty million degrees Fahrenheit for me? like all of it? and about 200 kpa of pressure? I really don't want a technical mistake or faulty wiring instance to happen, my "black ball of strangeness" will probably be a bit more fatal if I have an oopsie while trying to figure out what makes me tick." She said speaking to Rotten.

"Well from where they came

"Well from where they came and went to is kind of a long story. Simplified I pulled them out from another reality, some would call a hell or underworld. That reality ran by a being as close to a god as ya can get without being truthfully a God, though I'm sure she would say she was. It's the reality where my portals come and go." He then raised his brow "Ya get that kind of power out of ya. Hmm I have to double check. Not to mention a full system check after everything got warped."

He opened one of his portals and reached through and pulled a cart from the otherside. On the cart were two stacks of journal books. "Maybe I can get the okay to turn down the power drain on ya suppressors so ya can use some power, but not the max. I look into it."

"Now I said there be homework and only time I hand it out. So grab two journals one for when ya feel any aches, pains, and extreme emotions such of any type. I once knew a woman who generates explosive force only when ... Yeah that includes those monthly cramps girls. Record the date and time. The other is for when ya use yar powers same deal date and time, what ya were doing and how you were feeling at the time of ya powers. Each month I look them over see if there any links to adrenal, pain or emotions to power use. Now grab two books then head to the lockers and get ready for ya next class."
------------------------------------------------

"Most people can't see me at all Kami unless I really focus on keeping a visible form." She looked to the cards "You got a lot of power more so than even most powered people. Being able to make a... whatever it was. Is very very rare."

Andy was sitting next to Cher

Andy was sitting next to Cher on the bleachers and leaned in towards her after Coach Bolton had answered her question. "When you go boom, is it quick or does it take time to build up?"

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Once Kami had taken the collar and put it on, Roxanne gave her a comforting pat on the shoulder and left. As she walked back to the Danger Room, she moved through the crowd of hero training students and entered the room, then turned to look out at all of them. "The last half-hour has been a very good example of what can happen when you don't learn to control your powers. I find that kind of display highly unacceptable and it will not happen in my class. Am I clear?"

Bucky managed to find a spot

Bucky managed to find a spot under a desk no one was looking, slipped out of sight in one room then stepped through to another unseen point just before Sings Loudly turned, and walked up to Sings Loudly with a polite nod. He sat down and considered the questions a moment.
*I don't think she has much here, an orphan from what I understand. Some elf-look a like species lost in Hel.* He turned his head towards the main room, then back, swiveling his ears and settling a bit.

*Perhaps the humans may attempt to help. Though I am curious about her power and lineage; that much power, and from what I understand, she wrote it herself, were you? It may be important, the mind of a non-human child, and body, may not react the way the humans expect.* He tilted his head, keeping all of this quiet so the humans just thought it was two cats staring at each other.

_______________

Tobias laughed nervously taking the notes and looking them over. He started copying them, for good measure and practice, into his notebook. While he was copying his notes he couldn't help telling the real story to Ever.

"So, she ended up messing up one of her new spells." He said in a near whisper, scribbling out in his own horrible hand writing whatever was on the notes, he erased alot and it eventually became sort of legible. "I actually didn't do much, lead one teacher and this necromancer kid to her. though wasn't hard to find her I think...." He shrugged. "Cats did a lot of the leg work, some random hero showed up too and rolfstomped the lizard that scared Kami into messing up the spell. It was amazing..." He shook his head.

Professor Vyacheslavovich cleared his throat behind Tobias and glanced at the notes. "I'm glad you're catching up, but you may know the school policy is not to allow minors to assist in emergencies during class, unless authorized?"

"No, didn't know that..." Tobias blinked and looked up shocked.

"Ah, you must have, why would you tell me you got lost getting to the lavatory when you just mentioned watching a random hero destroy some lizards." Professor Leo sighed. "I'll have to write you up, stay after." The professors was nearly as quiet as Tobias had been, probably more, only Tobias and Ever, Tobias gritted his teeth and nodded, erasing his copy of the notes again and scribbling over the parts of the paper that survived.

Kami walked with Lexi atleast until they got to the gymnasium with Coach Bolton and the others in it. "I think that's a higher grade than me though... I'm only a... "She checked her schedule. "Freshman, whatever that is... I'm eleven times your age?" She blinked... "Though my grandmother was eleven times my age when I was nine. " Kami shrugged and played with the collar, looking in Misty's general direction

"Yeah, but I could, I always saw magic, it's not common here but there' still wisps and trickles..." She shrugged and snorted as she wandered into the gym and around the line trying to walk it. "I don't like Lizards cause these big lizard demons ambushed my tribe's caravan, but Tobias had Chiron get them." She explained... "Still don't like lizards though..." She shivered a little and messed with the collar some more, wishing they'd just taken her cards.

Evelyn frowns once the teacher walks away. She pauses for a moment, thinking. "You said you led a teacher and another student? Maybe you can get them to vouch for you. If the teacher did nothing to keep you from interfering, then they're either neglectful or they gave you the green light to help. Though... I'd understand if you were a bit doubtful. The pass was my idea and it got you in trouble... Sorry about that."

Dr. Tennant arrived at the

Dr. Tennant arrived at the gymnasium area shortly after Kami and Lexi did. He looked around for few minutes, finally spotting the small girl and heading in her direction.

Once he was near her, he cleared his throat and crouched down so they were closer to the same eye level. "Hi there, Kami. I'm Dr. Tennant, the school's vice-principal and one of its counselors. I'd like to sit down and chat with you about what happened during testing. Could you come with me, please?"

Lexi did a double take on

Lexi did a double take on hearing Dr. Tennant's name, but it took her less than a tenth of a second, he may not have noticed. "I'll be around for a bit after school, if you need company, sempai. But for now I have to get back to Ms. Smythe-Graeme's class. I hope The Doctor can help you with your lizard problem." She returned to the Danger Room right behind the last of the returning students, humming a waltz tune.

Cher shrugged at Andy

Cher shrugged at Andy "depends, when I am like this its pretty slow, when I am already....er charged? not sure what, but when I am a glowing formerly girl shaped thingy, not so slow. the guy who did the testing assumed to that it might happen if I keel over, as he believes my autonomic systems regulate the reaction. his words, not mine...pretty sure it means if I die I could explode? but no telling how big or when or if it will even happen" She stood and walked over grabbing four booklets tossing one to Andy as she sat back down "great now I get to write colorful detail about mood swings! dear journal this morning I woke up and was sad because my microwave called me a try hard, this afternoon I thought a lot about a pretty boy, then decided it would be more fun bashing my head into a rock then trying to explain myself to him, so i stopped! golly gee this will be fun" she said in her typical sarcastic tone, rolling her eyes "are you going to enjoy your notebook" she scribbled on the backside of hers and leaned it towards him.

Tobias winced and shook his

Tobias winced and shook his head at Ever, finishing his second, less legible copy of the notes. "I don't think I've got much of a case, cept to reduce, maybe a little detention instead of a lot." He shrugged and started looking through their text book for the material they would be covering next time... He exhaled slowly, twirling his pencil a little bit as he waited. He almost chewed on the pencil before handing it back. Since it was hers to begin with.

"I still lied too, got caught too, you'd have to lie for me to lie about my lie, no good, too complicated and drags others in. Just let it go..." He turned around in the chat and leaned back on the legs, waiting for the bell.

___________________________

"Principle?" She stared, then remembered Counselor from the encyclopedia, most of those had different purposes where she was from. "Are you um, sort of the vice lord?" She asked, almost whispering, watching Lexi leave with a quiet stare that was fairly mixed with fear. She kept one hand holding onto the neck thingy, the other at her side holding onto Atrox by a leg, thankfully zipped. "I'm so sorry, I made an accident and it was cause the spell wasn't ready and there were some dumb rules I put in, not sure I can debug them out, and I had to think at variables at the spell then I couldn't-" She blinked and stared, too tired to get worked up, but not too tired to ramble. This time instead of magic or quantum physics, it was frantic rambling. Misty didn't mention if it was the sort of test they could kick you out for.

__________________________

Bucky thought for a moment and bobbed his head as if he was fairly close to agreeing. *I suspect that be the case, they are nomadic, craftsmen when peaceful.* Bucky nodded and looked off towards the rest of the danger room. *How are relations with the Svartalfar and Ljósálfar, Dökkálfar is probably out of the question,* He shrugged though, he had no idea how any elves handled orphans, though he imagined immortality meant children were few.

"Well, as your new friend, I

"Well, as your new friend, I feel it is in my best interest as well as your own to let you know that I will try my best to keep you from exploding." he remarked as she got up to get the journals and he admired the view again.

Catching the tossed journals, he flipped a few pages back and forth as Cher made fun of the journals and the assignment. He joined in with some mockery of his own. "Don't forget the bit about pains and extreme emotions... Dear Diary, I stepped on one of my kid brother's LEGO today. It pissed me off and now that LEGO doesn't exist anymore."

He leaned over to read what she wrote and snickered, while also turning a bit red. He wrote something in return and showed it to her.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Dr. Tennant reached out and gently grasped Kami by both shoulders. As he did this, he emitted calming emotional waves. "Who whoa, easy there Kami. You're not in trouble. No one was hurt and there was only minimal damage to the school. Slow your breathing down or you're going to start hyperventilating." he advised, keeping his voice low and soothing.

Ever sighs, waves off the pencil when he offers it, allowing him to keep it. "That was a rather convoluted explanation. Still, sorry." Looks over as he balances on the chair legs. "Don't fall. Please and thank you."

"And I'm here still Kami. I

"And I'm here still Kami. I won't let anything happen to you, I swear." There was something good in Misty, sure it was hidden under her mischief nature, bad habits, and all around air headedness. Good none the less, it was that core of a good person that reacted and saved a young girls life way back when she died. It was that same element that was wanting to protect Kami.

Ron looked over the students "I was going to start teaching ya how to control yar punches today, that seem to been interrupted. So starting tomorrow we start proper punching. We begin with how to make a proper fist. What part of yar fist you use, and so on, I bet a few of ya have sore hands from earlier. The main part of the lesson will be control, tha fine art of pulling yar punches. There is a line between knocking someone out, and knocking them dead."

"I won't!" Tobias grinned,

"I won't!" Tobias grinned, still leaning back. "I can fly ya know?" He sat the chair back down on two legs. "Probably shouldn't do that in class though, it would blow things around." He nodded, gathering up note book, pencils and other things. He drummed his fingers again and pulled his goggles down, flipping through the HUD menus with his eyes as he sat there. He didn't make it obvious, just pretended to nap, but he was checking out everyone in class with the multi-spectral analyzer. He never gave the gadget back to Technosis after he used snagged them, though they never asked either.

_____________________________

Kami blinked and bit her lip, sighing quietly and breathing a bit more slowly, an obviously trained sequence of breaths. She looked up at Dr. Tennant then tilted her head again, then glanced at Misty, well where she thought Misty was right now. The lack of magic, exhaustion and the Principles ability gave her a bit of a glassy eyed look, even though she was responsive.

"I damaged the school? I probably have a book on repair magic somewhere..." She muttered, a bit more calmly. She reached up and touched the collar again, then glanced over at Misty. "Thanks Misty..." She smiled broadly, then looked back at the vice principles again. "Okay, can Misty come too sir? She's dead, but she's my friend, I can't see her right now..." She pointed at the collar, the only thing left that kept her shaken up a little was being exhausted and unable to feel magic. It was like having her nose or ears cut off.

Ron looked over "How did it

Ron looked over "How did it piss you off? Did it vanish because ya were angry or because of tha pain? Do you know what part of the pain triggered it, tha shock, tha adrenalin, tha endorphins? What was yar Fight or Flight response? Did you want to get away from the Lego or make it stop by attacking it? It's not a clear answer is it Andy? Any of those things alone could cause a power to function. Say tha Adrenalin was the trigger, well Intense pleasure would have the same biological effect of increased Adrenalin... so say goodbye to that girl ya want to make out with. Or maybe it was tha desire to make tha Lego go away, how many people in a moment of anger wish someone would just leave them alone, or go Away. Yar little brother being an annoyance just one thought crosses yar mind... and then ya are an only child."

He then looks at Cher "For someone who has a high level power suppressor on I would figure ya seek any means to get free of that gear. Even if it seemed silly or stupid. I'm thinking of ways for ya to use yar power without dangering others as I speak. Has one thought of how yar emotions affect yar power at all crossed ya mind? Would ya be willing to follow a Vulcan type of discipline to suppress all emotions to be free of that suppressor? Neither of ya I take as being stupid, but ya showing ya lack of thinking ahead, all about tha here and now, and distractions."

Cher cocked an eyebrow "well coach, pain and physical exertion, the triggering of my fight or flight responses makes it build up faster, burn hotter so to speak, but I went through like six months of poking to figure all that out, I can pass you my lab data if you'd like? emotions don't really bother my powers getting pissed off of course can trigger a fight or flight physiological response or so they told me, I am just parroting here. but yeah, I have not had a melt down in like four months, and that last one they triggered on propose. why they let me come to school."

Alicia reflexively tugs on her long sleeves before speaking up as Cher concludes. "There is also the issue of having power equipment on at all times as mandated by law," she states, her voice flat and toneless as always, "there might not always be a chance of having equipment removed because someone seems to be in better control than they were before."

Once she had gotten

Once she had gotten conformations from all of the students and distracted them enough that Lexi could slip back in amongst them if she wanted, Roxanne ushered them back into the Danger Room. As they entered, she counted heads and checked faces. Once everyone was inside, she looked out into the hall after noticing that Alicia was missing. She had everyone sit down, then headed off down the hall to check the other D-Rooms first.

Roxanne heard Alicia's voice as she was speaking in the gym class and poked her head inside, clearing her throat in the process. "Ms. Crane, do you plan on returning to the hero training program?"

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Once she was calmer, Dr. Tennant started cutting back on the power of his abilities and stood up. "The damage is nothing you have to worry about. It's mostly just broken light bulbs and damaged circuits. Of course, Misty can come. Like I said, I just want to ask you a few questions about you and your abilities."

He led the two of them out of the room and off towards his office.

Tobias grinned and put the goggles up after inspecting everyone through them. "So, are you a normal person who's just interested in super science of it? Or somethin'?" He asked, rummaging around in his bag. "Aha... need to talk about Kami putting some pockets, not pocket dimensions, just pockets... Extra space is nice but I'm afraid to dump it..." He muttered, clearing his throat as he closed the leather backpack... "And yeah, flight, not sure how, told me once, also got a few other possibilities explained, but didn't spend long at my grand-dads, very incognito sort..." He shrugged.

_______________

Since the invitation seemed open Bucky would certainly choose to follow. Thankfully few people watched cats for long, so he could simply walk further under the desk to follow Sings Loudly and walk through among the shadows close behind Sings Loudly, his tail low, but his ears high.

*I don't know of a variety from Hel itself, she's not a soul, certainly. * Bucky continued detailing what little he'd observed to help whittle their research. *Though it crosses a few realms as I understand? As potent as her magic is she can't be too far removed, elven mage types with out training, with books...* He seemed to shudder at the last part, otherwise making conversation.

_______________

"Oh, okay..." Kami nodded, holding the collar a bit while she followed him, finally letting go and following after, smiling around Misty's general direction, though drifting off, since she couldn't tell. She got a bit more nervous as the powers backed off, but waved at someone in the gym as they left.

She was quiet through the walk to the school office, mostly rummaging through Atrox' back, extracting a long staff, no point, but there was an ornate diamond on each end through a loop. The spell etching looked much older than the wrist thing she was wearing before. She would carry them both without mentioning anything about them until they got to his office, she couldn't use them anyway at the moment, even with powerful enchantments on them.

______________

Terry had been jogging or running around the gym, alternating, usually. He had a plan to start with, go around once jogging, then do short sides running, long sides jogging, at some point he got distracted in thought and just ran around the gym a couple of times, or jogged for awhile. He must have realized he wasn't paying attention because when Kami waved at him, he blinked, and just nodded with a polite smile, finishing up what he'd planned and sitting down. He was sort of sweating? He frowned and made sure to spill water from his bottle on his shirt as he sat down on the bleachers, wiped his face with the towel. Hopefully that was believable...

(Not at JDHS, but hopefully this will be a fairly brief diversion...)

Mei Ling Kowalski was putting finishing touches on a client's new website when Patton lifted up his head. He barked twice, then limped out into the living room. He was fairly spry for a dog with nearly no strength in his left rear leg, courtesy of a command-triggered IED in Afghanistan. But when the german shepherd got to the living room, he barked again, more quietly, but still excitedly. *Noisy Cat! Stranger cat! Play?*

Mei Ling put down the baseball bat after she saw who the "intruders" were, or at least one of them. "Hello, Sings Loudly. Is this a social call?"

*Business. Bucky and I need to know how to tell one type of Alfar from another. A priestess of Freya seemed to be the person to ask.*

She nodded to Bucky."Nice to meet you, Bucky. I'm Mei Ling. Let's see what I can find in the shrine..."

"True I did say I look into

"True I did say I look into it. Might have to take ya to another reality to cut loose. Just something to think about, if ya rely on that tech all tha time for control. What happens if it malfunctions, an EMP or Technokinesis causes it to deactivate. I had docs poke and prod me trying to figure out how I work. Only one person can say how it is to feel being me and that's me. Same with ya Cher sure those egg heads might scientifically know, but yar tha only one who feels it. I'm a firm believer in gut feeling, intuition, and will power. Tools people tend to ignore. Our subconscious pick up more, and process more than our conscious does. The trick is to being aware of what tha subconscious tells us."

"Tha idea of tha journals is to get ya to pay attention to ya body and yar subconscious. Even if ya can never gain control of ya powers there should be signs of trouble building up, enough time could be gained for some flyer or teleporter to send ya to somewhere safe. Seems ya already been thinking and focusing on this already. Tha Journals aren't part of ya grades, so can technically skip writing in them. They are for ya benefit even if ya don't see it now though."
______________________________________________

Misty followed along the lights started to flicker when she passed under them. As she does so she started to pull and manipulate the photons so she could appear to the spirit blinded "There is that better Kami? Oh that's a pretty staff... hmm kind of tickles when I get near it."

Cher smiled and nodded "I get what you are saying mister Bolton, makes good sense to me" She turned to Andy and handed him one of the notebooks talking quietly towards him "well I have got the subconscious notebook i figure since you keep staring you probably have a better view on the body section for me then I do, so ya know you could just write this for me, right?" She snickered and started to flip through the book she had again thinking these could prove to be useful, maybe not, but it was something to do.

Andy's eyes went wide just a tad when he was busted, but he played it off into a lopsided grin and quipped off-handedly, "What can I say? I like looking at nice things. And I was not staring... I was taking my time appreciating the view."

He sat up and seemed to flicker briefly, two mechanical pencils appearing in his hand. He handed one to Cher, then wrote in his journal about passing out after fixing the wall and accidentally creating the null time bubble when he was startled by the girl in the wheelchair. Once he was done with that, he slid the pencil into the binding and set the journal down, then hopped up to go speak with Coach Bolton.

"Coach, you said you wanted us to practice safe punching next. I have five years of experience in Aikido and Judo, including leading classes several times per week at my father's dojo. I could help with that practice, if you'd like. Sort of like a Teaching Assistant?"

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Having gotten over her sulk in the hallway, Portia was back to smiling as she sat down next to the new girl (Lexi) and extended a webbed blue hand. "Hi there, I'm Portia LeClercq."

Portia shrugged her shoulders

Portia shrugged her shoulders at Lexi's question. "Not really adaptations. I was born this way. My mother is a mutant with gills, enhanced strength, and enhanced durability. I never met my father and she adamantly refuses to talk about him until after I'm eighteen. What about you?"

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Andy nodded and stepped off to the side so that Ron could gather up the students.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Dr. Tennant looked back over his shoulder at Misty's comment. "I'm not sure where you got it from, Kami, but please put the staff away."

As he said this, they reached his office and he showed them inside.

Lexi shrugged in turn. "My parents were trying to make a desktop multi-channel communications and signals intelligence computer. They weren't planning on sapience, so you could say I was an accident. I have moderate strength and speed, good durability, good force field projectors, and an excellent communications suite. And I seem to have picked up a Blessing of some sort while in Egypt recently."

"Ah, guess it shouldn't be that odd. Normal people do out number the powered, I think?" Tobias shrugged, laying his head back down and watching the clock quietly. There was always so little to do in the first day or two.

Bucky followed behind and when the dog approached he tilted his head and sniffed noses with it. *A pleasure, sadly, yes just business. * Bucky added, to Patton, to Mei Ling. He bowed slightly to Mei Ling then went into some explanation. *To narrow the suspect, we're looking at a nomadic sort, may not have originated from, but traveled, crafted and traded in magical goods, in Hel, perhaps places around it and the other roots? No idea the extent of their travels.* He tilted his head to think of other important details. "Potent magic, darkish skin, pointed ears, on the side not top.*

Kami turned to Misty with a grin, now that she could see her and explained. "That's my normal uhhh, weapon, sort of? It's really ceremonial, I'm not supposed to hit people with it, just cast. Tap into the Mana, channel my energy, think the spell glyph or spell circle and it makes it. Other stuff too." She grins, then Dr. Tennant isn't pleased she got it out. "Oh... Sorry..." She frowned... "You wanted to know about my powers, so I thought I'd explain..." She shrugged, then put the staff back into her bag as they got to the office door.

She walks into the office and looks around with quiet curiosity. Definitely not what she expected, most lords or vice lords she'd seen had much more intricate throne rooms... She needed to go finish the rest of the encyclopedia, but it was buried in her book bag; Vice Principle obviously didn't mean what she thought... She wanted to go on about the tingling the staff caused, but being in his office, even with a vague idea why, kept her a bit sedated. She just lightly chewed in her bottom lip and sat down, obviously not in the nicer chair behind the desk.

"hey Mister Bolton, I did a lot of martial arts and was letter holding varsity in volleyball and soccer before I turned into...well whatever I am, just to let you know who your students are and such" She said not really sure why she blurted out, but did so anyway. I think it was more of the fact she heard the sports mentioned and got excited missing those activities and then she sorta deflated remembering she really couldn't do things like that anymore.

"You can help out too then

"You can help out too then Cher. The my goal of this class is so you students can have as normal a Gym as possible. "You all have enough trouble as it is with other people acting either afraid, or awed by what you can do. Here at least you're as normal as everyone else." He checked the clock "Alright class by now the Danger Room repair systems should have most of what was damaged during that issue fixed. So do a few laps don't overstress yourselves this isn't a race." He tapped the controls to reconfigure the Danger Room to remove the test dummies and reveal the track.
------------------------------

Misty whispered "sorry Kami... I shouldn't have spoke to loud. Then again he would have told you to put it away the moment he saw it anyway." She smiled her mischievous grin "want me to give him a Wedgie?"

(edit to add the bit about the track.)

Portia's eyes went wide as

Portia's eyes went wide as Lexi told her about herself. "Ummm, wow. I wouldn't have guessed. You look so human and felt so human."

Portia leaned in and studied her for a few seconds. "Although now that I take a closer look, you're almost... too perfect. You're definitely verging on uncanny valley territory."

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Dr. Tennant, having sat down behind his desk, dropped any facade and looked directly at Misty, his eyes glowing ever so subtly. Anybody who wasn't looking closely might think it was just a trick of the light. "I would recommend against that, Ms. Sinclair. I have allowed you to be a part of this session because you're obviously a calming influence on Kami. Don't abuse that trust."

And with that said, Dr. Tennant smiled and looked back to Kami. "Now Kami. I'd like you to tell me, in your own words, what happened during the testing session."

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Andy nodded to Ron and lined up with the rest of the students. Then the class began a slow jog around the gymnasium.

Putting yourself in another persons shoes emotionally is something that everyone has to experience eventually. It's part of learning to be a human being. Roleplayers do it for fun.

Mei Ling considered Bucky's description as she led the way out of the house to the shrine next door. "Doesn't quite match, physically... Although with nomads you sometimes get a lot of mixing." After unlocking the shrine and sliding the "The Gydhja is" sign from "Out" to "In", she went into her workroom, gathering components from a cabinet. Patton curled up in the main room, apparently he wasn't allowed into the workroom. "I'm thinking a spell for each potential humanoid species, run in a sequence, so unless she's got ancestors from off the Tree entirely you can get the rough proportions of her whole genome... Will there be someone you can ask to activate it, or should I make the physical form something you Cats can lay out on your own?"

"I prefer to think of it as 'very well designed', myself. But, yeah, some people can see that I'm not quite human, and some of those it makes uncomfortable." Lexi shrugged again. "But this is the way I chose when my moms asked what I wanted to look like, so I can hardly complain if a few people don't like it."

Cher jogged at what she

Cher jogged at what she figured was a slow pace...then cut that by half noticing the zombie like shuffle of most students, sighing not wanting to seem like a try hard, laps were soooo boring she contemplated cutting up with Andy but honestly her mind was preoccupied waiting for the bell to ring.

Andy had slowly migrated to

Andy had slowly migrated to the front of the pack and had turned around backwards, but was still keeping pace. He thought back on his training with his dad. "Aw c'mon, you buncha apes! At least make it LOOK like you're trying!"

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Portia smiled.

"Well, I wasn't registering a complaint. Merely making an observation. I've got no room to talk when it comes to looking 'abnormal'." she said, air-quoting and then running an open hand up and down a few inches from her body as if presenting herself. Her stark white hair, mottled blue skin, gills, webbed fingers/toes, and overabundantly athletic build did stand out even in a place like JDHS. The fact that she had to wear such abbreviated clothing did not help matters, but Portia still carried herself with a confidence that verged on swagger.

Bucky followed and smiled

Bucky followed and smiled sympathetically at Patton, hopping up to a perch around eye level, but outside to work room so Patton wouldn't feel too left out.

*Oh, she can cast the spell herself, if that will do.* Bucky nodded. *Little glad to know we're not alone in being confused by her.* He smiled, stretching and craning his head into the work room.

"They may be." Tobias nodded, shrugged, twirling his pencil and looking out a window. "Used to think normal just mean average, but with such a broad 'new' average, seems hard to think about at all." He chuckled, scribbling on the back of his note book.

____________

Kami gasped at Misty and shook her head.

"No no, I don't!" She sighed, then smiled at Misty. "I think talking will probably do... Um..." She bit her lip and moved in the chair a bit. "Okay, well... Ummm I got to testing level three, and it was lizards... So... I got scared and I tried to get away. I cast my Fortress spell." She held up her device and opened the compartment with the card in it, Elven Fortress. She removed the card to show the circle of runes and numbers with lines crisscrossing it. Another set of runs outlined the edges of the card space and lines stretched from it to the inner circle.

"It was tested but incomplete. Since I panicked, I forgot to think variables in the dimensions of the portal, resulting in a sphere, the easiest shape to form in the environment. Apparently it also means it expands without dimensions to constrain it." She babbled, it didn't seem like an obvious attempt to avoid any underlying reason. "I don't like Lizards... 'Specially big ones." Almost reflexively she started holding Atrox, petting the backpack lions ears.

"Ahh, that makes thing much easier. Can she read Futhark runes?" Mei Ling used the herbs she'd collected to prep the runestones, placing each one in a small envelope, and then, after waiting for an answer about the runes, writing the name of the race being tested for on the envelope. "Just have her take out each runestone in turn and hold it in her hand and concentrate on the image of the rune on it. Order doesn't matter, as long as she keeps track of which one she's using. Might be a good idea if she wrote down each result."

Lexi nodded. "The world would be a very boring place if everyone was 'normal'. So, how fast can you swim, and how deep can you dive?"

After providing himself as

After providing himself as back up to Rotten in the pocket dimension incident Sebastian went back to class with his teacher. Power exhaustion started kicking in full force now and Sebastian had no real urge to talk and socialize with his classmates anymore considering his last attempt....didn't go too well and on top of that he had no energy for it anyway. Since Sebastian had no suitable gym cloths for running laps and his fuel reserves were low he jogged at a slow, noticeable strained pace. He was too busy trying to push himself through the laps that he didn't notice that blood started gushing out of his nose...

Blood... for a moment desire

Blood... for a moment desire to eat shook him. All that would be seen of this was just a shake of his head. Turning to home in on the scent he spotted Sebastian "Sebastian report to the nurses office. You looked like something the cats dragged in." Ron reached into his pocket and pulled out a bit of beef jerky to satisfy that wave of hunger, it never works but stops the craving.

--------------------------------------

Misty winked to Kami then looks at the VP "Sorry Sir I be a good girl sir. All Gumdrops and rainbows from me." She made a face and caused a slight mist to form... enough to cause the light from the overhead lights to fragment producing a rainbow effect.

Dr. Tennany wrote something

Dr. Tennant wrote something down, then nodded to Misty before smiling back at Kami. "So the magic that caused the spatial disruption was from your... card-holder. Is that your typical source of offensive and defensive magic?"

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Andy shrugged as he pivoted to face front again and paralleled Cher. "I just channeled my Dad. He was a Marine unarmed combat instructor. Now he runs Donovan's Dojo here in Old Bradford."

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Portia thought for a second. "Well, I outran a cigarette boat in calm waters once. So I guess that would be something over 100 mph? And the deepest I ever dove was somewhere around 500 feet. But I think I can go deeper, because that wasn't hard or painful. What about you? Can you do anything special?"

Lexi was impressed. "That's faster than I can go on a bicycle! At least without risking damage to it... Let's see, I mentioned strength and speed, but you've got me on the speed, and my force fields... I can communicate on any radio frequency, and I'm pretty good at cracking encryptions...

Sebastian stopped his little

Sebastian stopped his little jog to a standstill at Ron's instruction. Finally noticing the blood gushing out of his nose at an alarming rate. Sebastian just nodded before he walked out of the gym doors, using the sleeve of his hoodie to stem the blood flow temporarily. He was feeling majorly weak and lightheaded as he tried to remember were exactly the Nurse's Office was....he hoped he didn't pass out before he reached there....

*Ah, yes, I've heard her

*Ah, yes, I've heard her practicing sight reading the runes, so she recognizes the symbol and the name.* Bucky nodded, peering down and stared some more, before hopping down and waiting by the door as well. *Though she doesn't seem to know any words to spell with them, using old Norse may trip her up.*

Kami smiled weakly, her eyes darting towards Misty's mist, then back at the Vice Principle, still scared she was going to do something wrong.

"I've been developing that most, it kind of extends to my hobby... But I can do other magic. Defensively I have a barrier spell that I learned, then I know one Etherial Spear spell, but I studied enchanting a lot. I have to memorize the whole spell sigil to cast it spontaneously." She pointed to the sigils on the device.

"So, offensively, it's the cards, though there are defenses, they're just not perfect yet... I've got no one to teach me, just all the books from my family." She explained as vaguely as possible. "Is that okay?" She asked, putting the card device back in her bag. "I generally need a tool to channel through in order to draw enough mana for big stuff, I think that's cause I'm only eleven. There's mom's staff, but I don't know how to use it well..." She frowned very deeply and settled into her chair, avoiding looking at him now.

Tobias groaned quietly, while the professor continued answering fairly inane questions about chemistry. Tobias was bored, obviously.

"Do you have a question Mr. Dragun?" Prof. Leo asked, he was one of those teachers...

"Eh... Um... Yeh, uhh, if oxygens burnable, how come the whole atmosphere doesn't go up?" He chewed his lip, kind of reaching, he didn't really know the reason, just that it didn't.

"Because it's not pure. There's water, and nitrogen, hydrogen and Methane, just a few. More trace elements. Chemical processes relating to Combustion are in section three, I have taken into consideration, as many as I can, unique situations that may shift the rate of chemical reaction." The man wandered over and held up the sylabus, then went on.

"Gravity shifts for instance changes the rate of pressure, changing the combustability, but improving condensation since the weight of the molecule itself makes the substance more prone to move towards a more stable state. Technically even water can seem to burn, with the proper ingredients and radio frequency. Though at that point, it's not water." He shrugged. "Class is structured to take into account powers. Though do not take this as facilitation of any pyrotechnics." He looked around the class, actually smiling, hopefully there weren't any who'd misuse the knowledge, but there always are.
