[size=2][color=#b22222]Thane brushed the hair out of his eyes as the landscape rolled past the windows. Mountains, trees, everything was just a blur as the bus he was on rolled through the winding roads. He looked forward taking in all the other people that were on the bus chatting amongst each other. Every seat was taken except for the bench seat in the back that he shared with one other person who sat at the other end staring out the window content on being alone just like he was.[/color][/size] [size=2][color=#b22222]A small smile played his lips as he remembered the guy who and tried to sit next to her but only succeeded in getting a bloody nose after hitting on her. He glanced at her from the corner of his eye. She had the longest hair he had ever seen it was a purplish white almost. [/color][/size] [size=2][color=#b22222]He turned his attention back to the window as the bus grew quiet. They were passing through several massive barriers and checkpoints. â??Seems they donâ??t want anyone getting in or outâ?? He thought to himself.[/color][/size] [size=2][color=#b22222]After the checkpoints the bus took them up a long road and soon a sprawling complex of gray and white buildings came into view. Thane could see several firing ranges out past the buildings along with obstacle courses and various other things. The bus pulled to a stop in front of the nearest building and a man dressed in a black and white military style uniform stepped on board. [/color][/size] [size=2][color=#b22222]He cleared his throat before speaking. â??Welcome to Hellâ??s Academy. This will be your new home from now on. Now I would like you to quickly and quietly exit the bus and make your way towards the field where the other students are gathered.â?[/color][/size] [size=2][color=#b22222]Thane followed the girl that had sat across from him to the field and stood at the end of the crowd. â??Why did I even bother to do this?â?[/color][/size] [size=2][color=#b22222]â??I have been thinking the same thingâ?[/color][/size] [size=2][color=#b22222]Thane turned to the girl not realizing he had spoke out loud. â??Not your scene eitherâ?[/color][/size] [size=2][color=#b22222]The girl shook her head as the intercoms came to life. â??Now that the last ground has arrived we can get down to business. The twenty of you will be designated into the eight different squads that were created yesterday before you arrived. When your names are called please step forward and we will show you to your dorm where the rest of your squad is waiting.â?[/color][/size] [size=2][color=#b22222]Thane let out a sigh as names were called. â??This is going to take foreverâ?? He let his eyes start to roam around when suddenly he heard his name.[/color][/size] [size=2][color=#b22222]â??Thane Marshell and Akieen Weathers please come forward.â? Thane started forward when he noticed the same girl was moving too. â??Akieen?â?[/color][/size] [size=2][color=#b22222]â??Thane?â? There was a brief silence and the irony of the situation then the two of them walked forward and were led to a solid white three story building. Their guide turned around and pointed to the top floor. â??That is where Sierra Squad resides who you are now a part of. The first order of business today is to get to know the rest of your squad and get settled in.â? With that the guide left them standing their in silence.[/color][/size] [size=2][color=#b22222]Thane contemplated about turning around and leaving but then remembered the amount of armed guards and checkpoints. He was pretty sure not all of the were human, some had to be werewolves. He started up the stairs with Akieen right behind him. When he reached the top he opened the door only to walk in and find a massive living room with a kitchen, five bedrooms and baths, study, dining room, pretty much it had the works. [/color][/size] [size=2][color=#b22222]Akieen shut the door behind her. Not a sound was made as they stood there. â??Guess no ones here right now. â??[/color][/size] [size=2][color=#b22222]Suddenly the door opened back up behind them and a voice reached Thaneâ??s ears. â??So itâ??s the last two members of my squad.â? Thane turned around to see a man a little bit taller then him extremely built with emerald green eyes. It was the eyes that made him uneasy considering he had never met anyone with the same colored eyes as himself.[/color][/size] [size=2][color=#b22222]The man turned around and yelled downstairs. â??Alphans, Sage get up here. Squad meetingâ?[/color][/size] [size=2][color=#b22222]OOC: There you have it. Darth is squad leader and everyone has their intro and you can already tell what the next couple posts is going to be about. After everyone has had a little bit of interaction I will progress the story.[/color][/size] [size=2][color=#b22222]Just so you know Alphans, Sage and Alexander(Darthâ??s Character) Arrived a day before Thane and Akieen so they have already met.[/color][/size]

"Respect you elders" sounds good on paper, but it's getting on my nerves. If I treat someone nicely and they treat me like crap, then I don't care how old they are, they are not getting my respect. Respect is earned and being older than me doesn't give someone a free pass to be rude.

[FONT=Calibri]Ladies and Gentlemen, this is your Reality Crew speaking. As foretoled by the Mayan calendar, the Universe is one year away from its final destination, where this reality will terminate. Please prepare to vacate the Universe. Please return all matter to its pre-atomic state, and place any left-over dark matter into the nearest available black hole, several of which have been placed throughout your local clusters for your convenience. If you require any part of your checkout procedure to be recorded as string theory equations, please collect and retain any dimensions you desire beyond the Third. Any remaining Time can be reclaimed as Space if you submit the appropriate Time Return forms. If you have not yet been issued a Time Return form, do not worry. The problem is merely an illusion caused by your limited dimensionality. Relax, and a certified time collection agent will have been visiting you. On behalf of our parent company, The Gods, and our Earth ground crew, the Mayans, we hope you enjoyed your stay in this reality, and ask that that you choose to participate in an inexplicable and random expression of spontaneously-generated space-time in what, for want of a better term, we shall call The Future. Thank you.[/FONT]
