RPG Dragonball: Battlefield - Post Apocalypse

[Flash]

[I]Half an hour after he had left, Tonberry returned. The new students were all gathered in the Lobby, some sitting, some standing, some in small groups and others on their own. Tonberry smiled, and walked over to the table where everyone had left their Student registration forms. The short, green figure scanned over them, nodding as he went. He picked up a clipboard, and began jotting things down while flicking through the forms. After a few short minutes, he tucked the papers under his arm, and spoke to the waiting students.[/I]

[B]Tonberry:[/B] Hi everybody. My name's Tonberry. First of all, I wanna get one thing straight--Don't think of this as a School. Think of it as a home. Secondly, don't think of me as a teacher--Think of me as a peer. After all, I'm still in training myself. Okay, now that we've got that sorted, I'll read out the Dorm list. First up, In Dorm A; Gigaslave and Shin. In Dorm B; Sabir and Xy--You guys are comfortable sharing a dorm together, right?

[B]Xy:[/B] Of course not.

[B]Tonberry:[/B] Ah, good. You know, sometimes people are uncomfortable sharing a dorm with a member of the opposite sex. Anyway, moving on... In Dorm C; Asuri and Ken--No problems there, right?

[I]Both Asuri and Ken shook their heads. Tonberry nodded, and continued reading from the clipboard.[/I]

[B]Tonberry:[/B] Okay, in Dorm D; Ben and Siren--Is that okay?

[I]Ben and Siren nodded in unison, and Tonberry went on.[/I]

[B]Tonberry[/B] Alright. Let's see here.. Dorm E is mine. In Dorm F; Mog and Seth. In Dorm G; Axel and Ageta. In Dorm H; Dan and Valygar. In Dorm I; Piro and Satari. In Dorm J; Blank and Yulaw. And finally, in Dorm K will be Kerndurnc and Shoryu. You guys might wanna go find your Roommates now, or something. You'll be spending alot of time together.

[I]The group shuffled around with people finding their Roomies. Soon, everyone stood in pairs. Tonberry smiled, and carried on.[/I]

[B]Tonberry:[/B] Great. Now, everyone in Dorms A through D, you go down to the left wing. Everyone in Dorms F through K, to the right wing. My Dorm is the first one along the left wing. All Dorms have their own Ensuites and kitchens, as well as a double bedroom with two single beds. There's also a small lounge area in every dorm. Now, it's getting late, and I'm sure you're all tired. Take your belongings to your Dorm Rooms, unpack, and get some rest. Tommorow, I'll show you around the Sanctum, and we might even be able to get some training in. Good night everyone, and I'll see you in the morning.

[I]And with that, Tonberry walked out of the Lobby, and to the door of his room. He enters the Three-and-a-half-foot door, and closes quietly it behind him.[/I]

[Chaos]

[i]Arano half sighed as he turned right sharply, this 'Yulaw' following swiftly behind him. He seemed cheerful enough. Just what Arano needed, someone to try and brighten his day. Or maybe Arano was doing it again. Maybe he was judging people wrongly. Well, considering his past, you couldn't really blame Arano...

A small, silver suitcase was in hand, a small backpack resting over his left shoulder, and a rough duffle back was in his right hand. His only possesions that he would need. Clothes, clothes, accessories for clothes, and a few books. Nothing more.

The dorm was actually, as Tonberry had hinted at, more like a penthouse suite than a dormroom. No matter. It was a roof over his head and a bed to sleep in. More than he could ask of, really. Post-urban cities had little of the afore-mentioned...

Arano sat in his selected room, already unpacked. A large leather trenchcoat was hung in the closet, along with several variations of his suit of which he was wearing at the very moment. He was anxious, believe it or not. Whenever he cleaned or kept clean, he was ready to do something. Figuring the Hell with it, he locked his door and stretched. So what if there was a remote chance of a workout tomorrow? It helps to be prepared...[/i]

[b]Arano:[/b] [i]I must get stronger. Control over ki is one thing...but the past is so much more. I want that power. It's the only way...[/i]

[DeathKnight]

[color=crimson][b]Ken[/b]: .. He said Left Wing, right?

[b]Asuri[/b]: Well, yea.

[b]Ken[/b]: Dorm C. Alright. Lets go.

Ken grabbed a small tan backpack that had been resting on the floor as Tonberry talked, and headed down the hall, walking at a somewhat brisk pace, the sheathed sword on his back shifting uncomfortably underneath his long black cloak. He stepped into his new home, and glanced around.

[b]Ken[/b]: Pretty damn snazzy.

Tossing the backpack casually on the floor, he glanced around, takeing the whole dorm in. It was a really nice room for a 'Dorm'- Honestly, he was suprised..[/color]

[Asylum]

[I]Ben, walking at a quick pace, headed down the left wing. He then noticed that Siren hadn't seen him leave.[/I]

[B]Ben:[/B] Siren... You coming?

[B]Siren:[/b] Uhh I guess so.

[I]The two then headed down the left wing, just seeing Tonberry's small door close. Ben walking slightly faster than Siren, eager to get some rest.[/I]

[B]Siren:[/B] Here it is, Dorm D.

[I]Ben pushed past Siren, took no notice at the wonderful dorm and entered a room. Placing his brown suitcase and backpack beside the bed he flopped down on the bed and quickly fell asleep. Not noticing Siren was still standing by the door.[/I]

[Juu]

[color=deeppink] [size=1]Asuri glanced around at the dorm. It wasn't as small as she had expected. In fact, it had a familiar home-feeling to it. She placed her bags down neatly by her bed, and walked around to check the rest of the room. She opened the closet, and glanced around. Asuri turned around, and walked to the bathroom, and looked around as well.

It seemed clean enough. The sink was neatly arranged already, with a few soap bottles and towels already hung up for them.

Asuri smiled, and sat down on her bed.

"Excited?" Asuri asked eagerly, leaning forward.

Ken turned around, and faced her oddly.

"About tomorrow. Aren't you anxious?"

Ken shrugged and nodded once, opening his suitcase and beginning to unpack. [/color] [/size]

[PiroMunkie]

[size=1][I]Piro walked down the left wing. With his gigantic steps due to his lankiness it seemed that he was a rather slow walker, but he covered a lot of ground in each step and was actually passing others that were ahead of him. His head moved only slightly from side to side as his yes followed suit checking out the others that walked the hall. It was apparent the Piro is quite the observer. His ears perked as hurried footsteps came from behind him. They grew louder as they approached, and the next thing he knew was that his right shoulder was bumped rather forcefully as a man came to his side ad stopped next to him. Piro recovered from the bump and glanced at this person who was now next to him. He recognized him as his roommate? He believed his name was? ?Satari?, or something along those lines. Satari had to walk rather quickly in order to keep up with Piro?s pace, is it was obvious he was not going to slow down.[/I]

[b]Satari:[/b] Sorry about that? So, how is it going?

[I]Piro remained silent as he looked over at his roommate with a humored smirk on his face. Piro had noticed this guy was rather cheerful when they first met when Tonberry asked that each person find their partners.[/I]

[b]Piro:[/b] It goes well? and you?

[I]Piro was not one to talk too much in a conversation. His answers were usually short and sweet, and occasionally with a returning question if a question he was asked.[/I]

[b]Satari:[/b] Pretty good!

[I]Piro?s bluntness left Satari without anything else to say, so they just continued to walk down the hallway. Piro?s pace was steady and unchanging. Satari would occasionally fade behind Piro and have to pick up his steps in order to get along side him once more. This man?s eagerness made Piro laugh on the inside as he bowed his head slightly and closed his eyes for a while opening them as they came closer to their dorm. Satari frequently glanced at him trying to think of something to say in order get acquainted with his roommate like Tonberry had suggested they do. He then noticed, that unlike any of the other students, Piro was not carry any bags or luggage of any kind. They arrived at their dorm room door, and Piro began to open it?[/I]

[b]Satari:[/b] Hey? where are your bags?

[i]As he opened the door, Piro looked back at Satari with that same humored smirk on his face.[/I]

[b]Piro:[/b] What bags?

[I]He turned and entered the dorm leaving Satari with a rather puzzled look on his face. Piro was already far into the dorm with the door left open when Satari noticed that he had not moved. Catching himself, Satari paced into the dorm and closed the door behind him. Piro had already turned the lights on and was in the center of the main room just looking around. This ?dorm? did not fit to its typical meaning at all. Quite elaborate, and much more than Piro had expected. Against a wall, there were two beds. Piro walked to them and looked at them both as Satari set his things down.[/I]

[b]Piro:[/b] Which one do you want? right or left?

[I]Satari turned towards the two doors with his hands folded across his chest in short thought.[/I]

[b]Satari:[/b] Umm? I?ll take the right, I suppose.

[I]With that, Piro further inspected the dormitory. There was a slightly wide closet in the far end of a wall. Also, there was only one bathroom in the whole dorm, which, to him, was perfectly fine. He would never have to use it anyway, it is how his body was created to work. Nothing goes to waste. Everything his converted into some form of useful energy. The only thing he would need to use it for was the shower and such.

Piro walked to his closet and opened the door. There was an array of several hangers along a bar that stretch to either end, and a few hooks along the back wall. It was all really more than he needed. Never the less, Piro lifted his hand up to the pendant on his cloak and gave it a twist to the left, which released its grip that had closed the shroud. His cloak seemed to just fall from his body into a black mass on the floor. He lifted it up from its fallen position and reattached the pendant, and then hung it upon a hanger. He turned with a slightly run and jumped onto his bed in a sitting position as he bounced up and down until the springs calmed?[/I]

[b]Piro:[/b] ? Springy.

[I]He removed his gloves and placed them on the nightstand, and then took off his boots and set them on the floor beside the bed. Then, he just sat there. Awake. Thinking about tomorrow?[/I][/size]

[Raiha]

[COLOr=royalblue][i]She smiled inwardly. This guy was definetly cute....worth investigating better. She wondered if he was okay with casual nudity....but banished the thought. Time for that later. Right now, she quietly followed him to Dorm B and he opened the door. Gesturing to her; she smiled at him and stepped inside. She set down her camping style backpack and looked around. Not spartan, but not luxurious....she liked it.

She quickly claimed the bed closer to the kitchen and sat down on the corner...removing her heavy jacket and folding it on her lap. Xy did a double take. She looked up at him questioningly.[/i]

Sabir: What is it?

Xy: Will you always be wearing just that?

Sabir: I hope you don't mind. It's the way I was raised....

Xy: No, it's fine. But the others might mind.

Sabir: Don't worry about that.

[i]Her eyes sparkled and snapped playfully. Definetly a good catch. She adjusted her shorts and fastened the clasp of her necklace. Then she opened the nearby closet....the only closet...and hung up her clothes neatly. There weren't many, the rest were folded and placed unerneath her bed. Then, settled down for the moment, she leaned back on the bed, jade stone resting on her bare chest...cold, but calming.[/i]

Sabir: Where did you come from?

Xy: ...a planet that survived the Ending. And you?

Sabir: Punhar.....the home for my people that is heaven. It's where I was born, and where my mother was tossed, before she became a star....[/COLOR]

[JesterSpirit]

Laird watched the others start coupling up but made no attempt to join in. He simply took off going down the left corridor and quickly coming to dorm A. Stepping inside he had to stop himself from gagging.

"What kind of room is this for training? Why doesn't he just give us diapers and some powder for our butts." He gave the room a look over sighing to himself. "Well atleast he never said we can't alter it to our liking."

He moved over to the two doors on the side of the main room and entered the left one letting out another sick choking sound. "This is going to take alot of work before its fit for me." He dropped his duffle bag on the ground and closed the door behind him deciding to hurry up and start his own renovations.

[Guest Musahi]

[color=darkred][i]Prometheus caualy walked over to Valygar and extended his hand.[/i]

[b]Dan:[/b] I am not to good at this so I don't know what to say. Um, you can call me Dan if you would like. But my full name is Prometheus Defiler.

[b]Valygar:[/b] Than say nothing...

[i]Valygar viciously slapped slapped Dan's hand away.[/i]

[b]Dan:[/b] What was that for?

[i]Valygar calmly walked towards the dorm. "What is this guys story?" Prometheus thought to himself. You would think he would be more eager to meet some new people, I sure am. He quickly ran after Valygar.[/i]

[b]Dan:[/b] Wait for me!

[/color]

[Shinobi]

[i]Shin stutters and stammers looking around in circles for "Gigaslave" as Tornberry called out. He was one of few who were still in the lobby, he looked around to find all couples beside him.[/i]

Shin: Hmmm, he must have went into the room, aint the freindliest of people is he?

[i]He murmered to himself. He stomped down the wing to the left, as Tornberry said. He turned to find the door slightly open, he walks in throwing his brown leather rucksack onto the middle of the floor. He pokes his head round the frame of the door, to find "Gigaslave" turning and flipping furniture. Shin clears his throat then proceeds.[/i]

Shin: Hello, you must be....Gigaslave?

Gigaslave: You can call me that if you like, my real name is Laird Tyranus, Gigaslave is a mear nickname, take your pick.

Shin: Riiight. So....Can I ask, What the hell are you doing?

Laird: Rearranging my room to my standards and satisfaction, Problem?

Shin: No, no. Carry on.

[i]Shin scouts the Dorm, much nicer than he expected. He found his room and unpacked his clothes, throwing his Bandana onto his bedside lamp, he lay, staring at the ceiling clutching his Katana at his right side, thinking.[/i]

Shin: Man, this guy is a real barrel of laughs...Tommorrow I'll try and break the ice. The others here seem nice enough, just some not very talkative.

[i]He kicks his boots off, with his size 22 feet hanging out the bottom of the bed, he rumffels about until comfy and sinks into a deep sleep.[/i]

[Warlock]

[I]Seth casually entered his dorm, and for the moment, did not pay any attention to his little moogle roommate. No, the just over six foot fighter walked straight to the nearest bed, putting a suitcase of things by it, before stepping onto the bed and crossing his legs, his eyes closing. [/I]

[I] Meditation was something he delved into constantly, his mind and body heading into a relaxed state, as the strange power he felt within him grew, spreading through the entire body. [/I]

[I] He didn't know how, but he had also had knowledge of this kind of meditation, as far back as he could remember... [/I]

[I] But thoughts such as that quickly fell from his mind as it moved into a subconcious state, and Seth's head bowed forward as his breathing slowed, and the beating of his heart almost stopped completely... [/I]

OOC: Incredibly sorry about the short length of the post, but I'm still getting back into the roleplaying spirit... Next post should be better.

[Raiha]

[COLOR=royalblue][i]High above the new Laporin, a new star flared into being. It pulsed brightly, then faded to a calm easy beat. The people on the planet looked up, smiled, and then continued with their work....rebuilding, restarting life, begining once again. Mechery watched their efforts from her throne, and then turned her gaze once more to the new star that had been born. Cinoris, perched on the lintel, watched as well.[/i]

Mechery: She is strong.

Cinoris: Someone like her would not go down easily....I am glad she's still here.

Mechery: Her husband is still around, as is his spawn.

Cinoris: Should I go?

Mechery: Send Tornait. He will help.

Cinoris: What about the star? Will she talk to her daughter?

Mechery: That depends on the child herself......

[i]The Spirit of the Winds turned to a jetblack plover preening nearby and nodded. Tornait spread his jagged wings, then flew from Punhar to the world waiting for him....[/i][/COLOR]

[Flash]

OOC: You know guys, I did say that you'd be sharing Dorm rooms. There are no seperate bedrooms within the Dormatories--Just one, with two beds on either side. Make sure you remember that.
-------

[B]Xy:[/B] Your Mother is a [i]star[/i]? How does that work?

[I]Sabir gave Xy a wry smile.[/I]

[B]Sabir:[/B] She wasn't [i]always[/i] a star. What about your mother?

[B]Xy:[/B] Don't have one.

[B]Sabir:[/B] I see. Did she die?

[B]Xy:[/B] No... I don't have one. I have two fathers.

[I]Sabir opened her mouth to say something, but pulled out at the last moment. Xy grinned, and unpacked his things. He was tired, and had walked from the other side of the continent to get to the Sanctum. This would be his first sleep in a real bed for a good two weeks. He rubbed his neck, and took off his shirt, throwing it onto his bedpost. He fell down on his bed, face first. His back was aching.

He heard Sabir's bed creak, and then footsteps. Before he knew it, Sabir was sitting on his bed, next to him.[/I]

[B]Sabir:[/B] You're aching.

[B]Xy:[/B] Is it that obvious?

[B]Sabir:[/B] Yeah. Backrub?

[B]Xy:[/B] Sure.

[I]Xy lay there, not moving, waiting for it. But nothing happened. He turned his head around, and looked at Sabir.[/I]

[B]Sabir:[/B] I'm waiting.

[B]Xy:[/B] Heh. Alright.

[I]Xy placed his hands on Sabir's back, and massaged his way up to her neck. He was firm--But not too much. Rubbing her shoulders with his fingers, he made circles with his thumbs on her lower neck.[/I]

[B]Sabir:[/B] Hmm. Pretty good.

[B]Xy:[/B] I try my best... By the way, you owe me one.

[Raiha]

[COLOr=royalblue]Sabir: I hate being in debt. I'll deal with your soreness problem right now.

Xy: How?

[i]The female in question walked into the bathroom, where she had stashed her various items, necessary for cleanliness....and then she found what she was looking for. Herbal case. She picked up up, and walked back into the bedroom, then sat down on her bed, opening it. He looked at her questioningly.... She smiled and rooted through the items before pulling out a small jar of something.[/i]

Sabir: Lie down. This might feel a bit tingly at first, but it helps.

Xy: What is it?

Sabir: ....my secret.

[i]She opened the jar, and a pungent, herbal scent filled the room, not alltogether unpleasant, but a bit strange.... With three fingers, she scooped out a portion, rubing it into her hands, then began to slowly push it into his back, starting at the scapulae, then moving down the spinal cord....spreading it evenly. He sighed, her touch was gentle, but smooth. The ointment stung for a second, then changed into a calm relaxed feeling.

She smiled and dug in deeper, reaching into his muscles.....then she stopped....and stood up. She brushed off her hands and sat down once more. He looked up.[/i]

Xy: Where did you learn how to do that?

Sabir: None of your buisness....

[i]With a mysterious smile, she folded her fingers gracefully and closed her eyes.[/i][/cOLOR]

[b][size=1]I AM NOT CHEERFULLNESS, TEH NEH!!! *hits him with a random dead wombat*
-----------------------

[/b][i]Yulaw unpacked his stuff, and put it all under his bed.
He didn't feel like 'knowing' his room-mate.
He lied down on his bed, facing upwards, and gave out a content sigh.

He turned and looked at Arano for a moment, and faintly smiled. Didn't seem so bad,..atleast he hadn't asked him annoyed him yet...[/i][/size]

[JesterSpirit]

((OOC - oops just one single room then. oh well just means I'm going to really annoy the crap out of Shin since I'm making it my business to create the most freaked out character I possibly can.))

Suddenly deciding to be nice he is mindlessly chatting to Shin while busy with his renovations. "You know some people laugh at my nickname considering it odd. Though really Giga is a reference to the powerful inner energy my clan says everyone has and that energy is generally in charge of us all."

All the while he has pushed his bed vertically up against the wall and nailed a pair of hooks and another pair of small circular metal rings to the ceiling. Then he attached a pair of ten foot chains to each hook. He takes a small rolled up carpet out of his duffle bag and unrolls it on the floor directly under the two chains revealing a red carpet covered in hundreds of miniature needles.

Shin opened his mouth to say something and was immediately cut off by a never ending Laird. "Of course its the goal of my clan to overcome our natural tendencies and take control of this energy so if I ever accomplish that I would have to change my name to GigaMaster."

He attaches two metal cufflings to his wrist and locks the chains to them. Holding onto to each chain with one hand he yanks himself up with a grunt planting his feet on the ceiling. Holding himself there for a moment he keeps right on going in a nice casual tone. "Of course no one has ever done that so GigaSlave has always remained the nickname of my father and his father and his father. Each of them failed to become a master and just passed the Slave name onto their son as a kind of blemish of failure I guess you could say."

Quite literally spinning around slowly on the ceiling he wraps the chains around tightly around his chest then moves down a bit sliding his legs into the rings. He finally lets out a sigh and stretches a little bit in his make shift aerial bed. "So I guess if I make it I would have to pass on the name GigaMaster to my son but he wouldn't be born a master and would have to learn to control his energy just like I did so I would have to call him GigaSlave anyway so my son is just doomed to be born with a mark of failure no matter what. Poor guy, or girl. Oh well thats his or her problem, i'm going to sleep now night."

He closed his eyes for a moment then opened them again suddenly looking at Shin. "Your one big guy you know that? Anyway good night." Once again going back to sleep.

[Progressive]

[i]The young Moogle sat on his bed scanning the room, he was so excited. After having a quick look at the bathroom he promptly starting flying around the room making whirring sounds as he went... At that point one of Seth's eyes snaped opened and he snatched Mog out of they air and pinned him to the bed.[/i]

[b]Seth:[/b] Okay. I think it's time to arrange some ground rules...

OOC: Oh dear lord! HELP ME JEBUS! Lol, J/K man.
_________________

[i]Shin was puzzled as to how Giga's new bed, could be comfortable. Giga was much more pleasant now, and Shin thaught to himself: "Mabey he won't be so bad, he's a lil' freaky, but he seems pretty cool". Shin snaps out of his little trance and replied with a simple comment to Giga's theatorical question.[/i]

Shin: Yup, I am pretty big, actualy my size is not out of the ordinary for Saiyans and not average either, yet I am only part Saiyan, but then again, there is many bigger than me, well Saiyans that is, or so I have heard, I have never met a full blood Saiyan before, or a part Saiyan for what I can remember, ok yeah I'm rambling. I geuss we'll have a chat in the morning?.

[i]Giga replied with a small snort and grumble, then arched his back and nodded and relaxed falling back to sleep. The clinking of the chains irratated Shin at first, but he got used to it and after about 15 minutes he was fast asleep.[/i]

[Yoda]

Valygar paced quickly down the hall way, as Dan ran to catch him. It was going to be like having a kid-sidekick, someone who'll follow you everywhere, giving out useless pieces of information, and asking about Valygar's past... most of which he did not wish to recall.

He opened the door to the dorm, and walked inside, his metal boots making a large clanging sound on the floor. The one duffle bad he carried, he tossed onto the floor lightly. He looked about the room, it was more than he deserved... but all he needed. A place to train, to shelter under, and to sleep in, not that he slept much. Dan walked into the room soon after, and was much more appreciative of the dorm room.

[B]Dan:[/B] This is an eye opener and no mistake...

Valygar said nothing, and just hoped than Dan was someone who needed a good nights sleep, and wasn't someone who wanted to stay up all night talking. If he was one of the latter, Valygar would soon drive him into being one of the former.

[B]Dan:[/B] So, ugh, which bed d'ya want?

[B]Valygar:[/B] I don't care kid...

[B]Dan:[/B] Okay then... I'll take the right one. I'm pretty tired, we should probably both get some sleep.

Valygar looked inquisitively at his room-mate for a moment, not really sure what to make of him. Then, he turned and sat quietly on a chair.

[B]Dan:[/B] Aren't you gonna get some sleep?

[B]Valygar:[/B] No need...

[Guest Musahi]

[color=darkred][b]OOC:[/b] Yoda, while I am not as anti-social as your guy, Prometheus/Dan isn't that talkitive either. [url]http://www.otakuboards.com/showthread.php?s=&threadid=19411&pagenumber=1[/url] My sign up is at the bottom.

[b]IC:[/b] [i]It was quiet all through the dorms. No sounds could be heard. The area was serene, and peacfull. Most of the fighters lay dormant sleeping heavily. Prometheus was aswell. Suddenly Prometheus was awaken by a small crash. He sat up in his bed looking around for any sign of Valygar. After a moment of searching he found Valygar sitting on his bed.[/i]

[b]Dan:[/b] What, what was that?

[b]Valygar:[/b] Don't ask questions.

[b]Dan:[/b] Fine...

[i]He sighed and turned back around. Covering himself in his warm, cozy sheets. He wondered if him and Valygar would ever be friends. The rate he was going they wouldn't. He was hoping here maybe he could make a friend or two. But the first person he met shut down on him already. This was going to be a long night.[/i][/color]

[Flash]

[I]5:50 am. Dawn. The sun rose over the mountains, radiating warmth and light over the basin where the Sanctum lay. The Horizon and clouds were alive with warm colours, pastel reds and oranges.

Tonberry stood atop a cliff adjacent to the Sanctum, overlooking the tranquil place. He smiled, and jumped down from the ledge, gracefully landing on a boulder at the bottom. He jumped from rock to rock, fairly quickly. He stumbled once or twice--The dew had made the stone slippery, and what's more, Dexterity was hardly his strongpoint. He landed on a patch of grass near the path that led to the Sanctum. He straightened his shirt, and walked the path.

He reached the front door, opened it, and went in. He was pleased to see a few people already up. One of them stood leaning against a column, eyes closed. Another was floating an inch off the ground, leg crossed and arms folded, Meditating. Tonberry was glad to see them up so early.[/I]

[B]Tonberry:[/B] Nothing like an early start, right guys?

[B]Seth:[/B] .....

[B]Xy:[/B] Yeah. I just want to get started as soon as possible.

[B]Tonberry:[/B] Great. The others will be up soon, I hope. Until then, I guess we'll just have to wait.

[PiroMunkie]

[size=1][i]Piro sat awake on his bed, as he had done all night. Well, not all night. When he became too terribly bored he walked around the dorm a bit. Rather aimlessly. On a lighter note, he could pretty much walk around the place blindfolded and not run into anything. We know, because he tried. Numerous times at that. He had to entertain himself somehow. On the occasion that he did not want to get up, but had to do something, he just turned himself towards his roommate, Satari, and watched him sleep. This guy slept like a rock. When Piro had been practicing walking the room blindfolded, he ran into a few things that made quite a bit of noise, yet Satari did not even stir.What an odd pair they were. One who is pretty much an insomniac, and a heavy sleeper.

Beneath the doorway, Piro could see light pouring through. People were waking up.[/i]

[b]Piro:[/b] Finally...

[i]... He said to himself. It had been quite a long night, and it was about time to get about and do some actual moving. So with that, Piro quietly grabbed his gloves off the nightstand between the two beds, and put them back on his hands. Next were his boots, which he laced tightly to his feet. He then arose from the bed and walked over to the closet. Upon opening it, he saw that Satari had made himself at home. Piro did not recall him putting his stuff away... but perhaps he had fallen into to deep of a concentration to notice anything. Regardless, Piro snatched his cloak off its hanger and slid it on over his head. The length of the cloak flooded to the floor hiding his feet, and his gloved hands peeked out from under the outer layer of his cloak. Ready to go, Piro took one last look around the dorm making sure he had not missed anything, and then walked out the door, leaving his roommate to get his rest.

It was not long before Piro was down into the main area. He paced himself much quicker in an open area than walking amongst others like he did last night. Upon arrival, he saw a few people had already gather, including Tonberry who turned to him as he emerged from the left wing, and spoke from across the way.[/i]

[b]Tonberry:[/b] Ah, another early riser, I see. Did you have a nice sleep?

[i]Again with Piro's patented, humored smile he continued a slower walk finding a cozy spot on a wall, leaning against it with his arms folded across his chest.[/i]

[b]Piro:[/b] What sleep?

[i]Tonberry stood puzzled for a moment, forgetting for that split second that he had brought in quite an array of people. Not all are going to have the same needs. He spoke once more, but more open and not directed at anyone unless they happened to be consciously listening.[/i]

[b]Tonberry:[/b] Quite the diversity we have here, heh.

[i]With his eyes now closed, Piro nodded in acknowledgement to Tonberry's words. Piro's deal was that his mind did not need sleep. His mind was the center of his 'greater' power, it was where the part of his Creator existed within him. His creator no longer slept, so Piro's mind no longer slept. Yet his body was still bound to the limits of the phsyical world. It needed to rest. So as long as Piro was not doing anything requiring great amounts of work, his body rested, and sleeped while his mind kept his existence awake, and his eyes open and conscious. It was quite an odd feeling, but Piro had no complaints. It was how he was made.

Interrupting Piro's thoughts, Tonberry inquired once more.[/i]

[b]Tonberry:[/b] Are you ready for your training? Looking forward to it?

[i]Piro opened his eyes fixating them on Tonberry as a grin spread across his face.[/i]

[b]Piro:[/b] As ready as I am going to be.

[i]Tonberry nodded, and Piro closed his eyes once more in slight meditation and focus for what was to come. It would not be long now...[/i][/size]

[COLOr=royalblue][i]Sabirsing rolled her hair between her fingers, then snapped it backwards in swift braids....she bound them up with two sticks, then adjusted her headband.... If she was going to be the only Laproin around, she might as well be proud of it. She looked up into the sun, shielding her eyes with one hand. It was then that she realized something was sitting on it, and she went ballistic.

It turned out to be a black hawk, shrunken down to a miniature size....and it nipped her hand playfully. Sabirsing's eyes half shut and she looked at it again....his eyes seemed to taunt her, tease her...and she backed away. The bird landed on her hand again, and began to preen.[/i]

Sabir: ...hello.

Tornait: Hello Sabirsing. Cinoris sent me to keep an eye on you.

Sabir: He....sent you...

Tornait: Yes.

Sabir: Oh...

[i]She sat down hard, mind a whirl of thoughts and memories... [/i][/COLOr]

Yulaw yawned and jumped out of his bed. He reached under it, and pulled out his set of clothes for the day. If he was gonna shine, he might as well be bright and colourful too.
He noticed Arano was not in the room.[/i]

[b]Yulaw: 'Damn it.. they're all probably waiting for me...'[/b]

[i]He rushed to the bathroom, and had a quick wash. He slapped on his clothes as fast as possible, and with that, he ran outside to meet up with Arano and everyone else who was up.[/i]

[b]Yulaw: 'Where are the other half?'
Arano: 'Sleeping still'
Yulaw: 'Oh..'[/b]

[i]The Tonberry waddled over in Yulaw's direction, with obvious enthusiasm and high hopes.[/i]

[b]Tonberry: 'My.. aren't we ready for training.. ^_^'
Yulaw: '...yes'[/b]

[i]Tonberry stood silently and uncomfortably with Arano and Yulaw for a few minutes, before he scuffled off to chat with Sabir.[/i][/size]

[Raiha]

[COLOr=royalblue]Tonberry: Troubled Sabir?

[i]She looked up...startled. The bird on her hand dipped its wings and chirruped. He stared. Sabirsing stroked his tail feathers and explained herself.[/i]

Tonberry: Your ....mother sent him?

Sabir: My mother is a star. My mother's companion sent him.

Tornait: ...actually, I was going to go to somebody else, but then Cinoris told me to come here....

Sabir: Oh thanks, I feel so happy now. A second place host.

Tonberry: I'll just....go see if the others are up yet...

[i]He waddled off and Sabir groaned. Another creature to taunt her. She flicked her wrist and he took off in a flury of black feathers. He circled overhead, then landed on her shoulder this time.[/i]

Sabir: So I'm stuck with you until...?

Tornait: I dunno, when I feel like leaving.

Sabir: Couldn't I just banish you?

Tornait: You could try...but you might get Mechery mad.

[i]Her eyes opened wider and she gritted her teeth. This was another excuse to keep an eye on her.[/i][/COLOr]
