Keladry spotted Jai and called out to him, "You there. Join our group and stick with us, you must stay in sight of a teacher at all times."

Krista waved slightly at Jai before shuddering back into pain.

Mandred relaxed as Nyirko seemed to start gaining control over her powers. His mind eased and he was able to concentrate on keeping the blockade up when a sudden humongous force lunged at them. "NO!" He screamed as he was thrown back into Melesha. His body shuddered but he forced himself back towards her, his only concentartion was on Nyirko and his earthen shield. He was unaware that Melesha had spoken to him. Unaware of SAyren nearby. Unaware of the voices of the evil ones that could now be heard coming from the storm.

He forced himself forward and grabbed Nyirko's hand once again pulling her back towards him. "Fight it girl, I know you can. I've seen you fight." He began working the magic back around her. "You can do it."

Kazu looked at the water instructor smiling "Of course" sitting down he took the modified roller blades off and slung them over his shoulder. "So which way to the nearest instructor sir?" asking with a little bit of nervousness in his voice "This is nothing compared to the first time that i had lost control of my powers, but then again the other school i was in isn't nearly as nice as this is on its worst day." While walking along kazu noticed a group of students walking towards the dorms "Sir, the other students seem to be heading towards the dorms, and i think i see one of the other adults directing them."
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Looking around at the young woman obviously a fire user, "I am here on the orders of Matt, I must report to the person in charge. You wouldn't happen to know the teacher in charge." Being very polite with his words and looking at his phone watching the storm move closer. "I have very impertinent information for that teacher," still looking at the storm getting very nervous and feeling his metal surge forming a ball above his head then a light bulb. "Oh and yes i do know that my metal is out of my full control but at least its not the sword it made earlier," hopefully calming some of the first year students in the group.

Miss Cooper's eyes brightened. "You have news from Matt, What's he got to say? " She cleared her throat, "Melesha is outside, and the other teachers are busy so I'd say I'm the teacher in charge at the moment. "

Krista watched his metal moving. "That's intresting, and least it's not causing you pain." She winced again.

(Any ideas on how Azure can help stop the storm even at the cost of his life please tell me. :]
Same with Archimedes because i don't know the anime they he based his character off. But i figure that when he dies the club he was forming will be turned into a memory club for him. )

Grabbing the nearest tv and creating a cable to transmit the signal "Well as you can see on this map this is a storm way out of the ordinary." Going through all of the things that he had just showed matt no more than ten minutes ago, "I would have to suggest that we send someone to gather more metal and perhaps sheltering either underground or maybe figuring out something to perhaps sheild us from the storm." Quickly opening up a auto-cad program on his cell he quickly started to draw a machine that could possibly work by causing an anti-wave to cancel out the storms affect. "Perhaps something like this, even though this is rough design they concept should work." Staring completely at the screen and trying to block out the noises "We would have to have one of the best teams of metal users to gather that much metal." Suddenly he thought of jaz oh no, is she ok, quickly sending her a text hoping she would check her phone quickly come to the lobby of the school, I'm here with the other students and some of the teachers. "So what do you think of the rough idea ma'am?"

((:XD Sorry I'm not posting.

Sayren: watching the event with Nyirko and ready to leap in at first inclination.
Jaz: Moving along with Cooper and the other students.
Kaito: I'll reply with him later, but he's given Kazu permission to move along with the other students: that's where he's going anyway.))

(You guys know that the storm already hit, right? It's the people that made it that are coming closer at this point. And the darkness.
Azure could help create some kind of barrier of sorts and end up using too much of his life energy to do it? Idk :XD

OH! Guys, feel free to jump in at any time to take over one of the badies if you want. :P I think you all got the idea behind it already :) )

Nyirko's grip on Mandred's hand was crushing. She shouldn't have the strength but that was all she could do. Her eyes squeezed shut as she tried. She really tried.
Nothing.

A gentle hand on her shoulder and she turns around, a big smile on the little girls face. "Mommy! Daddy!" They hug their child and tell her to be good just before they leave for work. "Don't forget, you have the heart of steel and the control of an anchor, sweetheart. Just don't forget." They leave, laughing merrily as their baby girl watches them with a pout on her face.
"Mom? Dad?" Nyirko tries to run after her parents, a sinking feeling in her stomach. Something wasn't right, something was going to happen to them. Her parents shouldn't go to work today. Something wasn't right. Instead of catching up with them, a hand grabs her arm and pulls her around, another little girl about 6 grinning and giggling. "Come on, Ny! Let's play in the sandpit!"
"Rinny?" Nyriko hesitantly follows her childhood friend, looking back once over her shoulder at the darkness there, wondering what it was that felt so wrong. "Ny!" She shrugs it off and follows her laughing friend, holding her hand along the way as a storm starts to flicker around them. The little grey girl frowns and then screams as lightning hits her, flowing through her to scorch the hand she holds. "RIN!"

Nyirko shouts the girls name in reality as she relives the things she wanted to forget. "REN!!!!!!!" She shudders as the power snakes through her to grab a hold of Mandred's hands, trying to burn him. She recoils, not wanting to go through all of that again, trying to shake the hand from hers. She tries to take all of the energy inside of her, tries to carry it away from everyone. Her metal chain escapes from its holder and curls around her and she becomes the conduit, becomes the carrier.

The shrill man screams with rage as his hold on his power slips. The child was absorbing it.

Nyirko's eyes slam open, the color metallic and glowing with the energy. Her eyes focus on Mandred. Her voice was raspy, hoarse, and otherwise unrecognizable as she barely manages to sqeak out. "Where does it all go?"

(Funny twist in the names....
And tell me if this is too much...I don't want to be god-modding or overpowering the rp :/)

Sayren jerked when he heard his name. His maroon eyes were wide as he stared at Nyirko, his breath catching as she began to absorb the energy. 'What should we do?" he asked over the sound of the storm about them. Navy hair whipped about his face wildly as he glanced to Melesha . . . and then back to his friend. He wanted to go to her so badly . . . it was killing him not to.

((:XD Don't know what to post, sadly. You're giving us a ton to work with, too! :headdesk: Silly, Es!))

(I know the storm has already hit silly :] I think Jai is just trying to figure out what to do. AND it gives me the perfect way to kill off Azure! :D I wanna have a flashback post too!! )

Mandred's eyes widened. He could suddenly feel the immense pain she was feeling, even through the Earth he had worked around them. Her crushing hands he could deal with, he had enough younger siblings. He could feel the death in the air, and had no idea where it was coming from. The electricity surging in and around the two reeked of darkness, of death.

As if her flashback of death had stuck a pin into his locked away memories, a sharp agonizing cry exploded in his thoughts. A gang fight in the middle of the streets in broad daylight. One of his younger brothers shot before his very eyes. It had made headline news in all of the papers. Footage from the fights had played on news stations for days.
-BANG, BANG, BANG-
the sounds of the gun shots echoed in his head until the screams of people, the sirens, his brothers dying wail were pounding and he screamed outloud sinking to his knees.

He'd dragged Nyirko down with him unknowingly and a real tree had begun forming around them, slowly it inched its way up, though it hadn't touched them or gotten above their feet yet. Below them the elctricity passing through him was shooting roots further and further into the ground.

He was snapped out of his painful reverie with a jolt as it felt as if his life and been yanked from him. The power that Nyirko was trying to control, seemingly succeeding in controlling was pulling some from him because he was in contact with her. He'd get it back, but she was unknowingly using his power to control the storm. His vision started to fade, he could see her chains glowing thickly against the confusion and mist everywhere else.
When her eyes snapped open, he couldn't remove his own from them. He could see the ferocity of the power within them. And he felt he understood something, but it wasn't something he could name. He barely heard her question it was as if everything was in slow motion. He blinked. "The earth, the sky, and the water." He didn't even realize he was talking. His vision was fading even further. "It all goes somewhere, but nowhere at all. I have outlets in the roots, you have them in the metal. If you don't know when it releases it, than you just haven't been watching it close enough."

His eyes were foggy as he looked at her. The weight of what had just happened suddenly took over him. "You did it Nyirko."

His eyes closed,his world going black. his hands were still tight around hers, than his body crumpled and he collapsed.

Miss Keladry Cooper stared blankly at the brainiac student in front of her. He kept pulling out all these gadgets, and showing her weather patterns. "Well yeah there's an evil storm outside, I think we've all noticed that, as for this .. thing." She indicated the screen, "There is no time to build something underground, we're being attacked here." She hissed the last part trying not to startle anyone that was near by and may be listening.

Krista had been paying attention far closer than the teacher was and she had been able to collect her breath during the explanation. The storm wasn't causing her as much pain now that she was in the dormitories. Her hand brushed her necklace and she looked up sharply at Jai. "Excuse me, I don't know very many metal users. But I do know one, maybe he can help. "

----------

"More toys to play with!" cackled the voice of the evil wind witch, who was controlling the strong winds steming the storm. "You may be losing control on your pathetic first attempt. But I have a delightful target right here!"

Raine froze in mid step outside. She'd gotten angry and made a wrong turn and gone outside, but by the time she got outside she didn't care. A darkness felt like it had descended upon her, she could hear cackling laughter, voices pawing at her mind, teasing her. Her hands trembled at her side, and she was unconscious of both feet lifting off the ground as she rose into the air writhing with pain. Her head was thrown back as she let out a scream.
Tohru cowered in the back corners of her mind, unable to do anything against the ferocious evil.
She'd been too willing to see the storm, to effected by her own rebellion to notice that the evil of the storm had started to control her from the beginning. It just needed one more chance to snatch her. Her power with the wind was weak, and the storm had jumped on that. Had scooped her up and would toss her like a rag doll. She felt like daggers pierced her as she writhed in mid air. Each flinch from a dagger sharp just of air that was striking her from all sides. Raine actually started to cry from the pain, yelling at herself that she had been stupid to believe that it would be her friend, that the evil feeling she'd got from it was one she could play with. But all that came from her mouth now was whimpers of pain as if her sound had been shut off.

(Esmee : If you don't know what to post here's a couple ideas. Nab a character and just start to post stuff, it doesn't have to be long. Like you can have Jaz reply to Jai's text freaking out. Or have her flinch from pain reacting to the storm. ect. Maybe she overheard Kel and Jai's conversation even.
You can have Keito show up at the dormitories, maybe explain the trek across the grounds, maybe he and Kazu happen to stumble upon Tohru just as she is lifted or something.
Also, don't forget about Becca :O she was last seen in Matt's defense class exercising i believe.

Kio: These are amazing twists, I have fun with it, and the god-modding is not so horrible that I'm going to complain. Infact I don't mind at all. Also, i don't think we CAN overpower it, because i think in a school of magical people. there would have to be something slightly more special about the group that is picked out to be roleplayed ^.~ Like Harry Potter :D)

Mr. Matthew Onis was hating the reactions that he could feel in the metal throughout the building, it was time to flee. He could sense through the metal that most of the students were out and already out of the building, just a few stragglers left behind and they were together. Good
He ran through the halls until he caught them. "Keito!" He was slightly out of breath as he caught up to them, he really should have kept in shape before all of this happened. "We're the last group in the building, let's get out of here." He nodded at the students that were trailing along behind the respected water teacher. His eyes rested briefly on Kazu who was surrounded by a shield of water, before he nodded approval. "Good idea, that."

((:sweat: I'm just being a butt. I'm being lazy!! LAZY! Bad, Es! Bad!))

Jaz clutched her phone as though it were her only line to life. The words from Jai's text stayed on the screen, and she couldn't help but tremble as the storm continued. She had been trailing along with a few others as they followed Vincent Keito through the halls. The silver-haired girl worried her lip piercing with her tongue as she felt pain spike through her. Every bit of metal felt like it was charged - and sparking continually.
This storm hurts. She sent the text, but it didn't go through right away. There was no service - not right away. It would be sent out the moment service came through.
-

Keito nodded, flinching as a wave from the storm's powers raked through the water of the school. Somewhere nearby something broke, and the instructor felt sweat bead on his brow as he forced the torrents to calm. It wasn't working as well as he wished it to.
"Kazu is a fire student. It was the only way to keep him from harming the rest of us." Vincent met Matt's eyes for a moment and nodded, knowing that they needed to get somewhere safe immediately. "I don't know how long I can hold this." Something else exploded - a pipe in a wall somewhere nearby. The shield about Kazu flickered spasmatically, wavering and partially disappearing before coming back to a solid orb. "Lead us, Onis."
-

Sayren shuddered as he heard his name come from Nyriko's lips. Instead of waiting, he could no longer contain himself. The student shoved himself to his feet and into motion, making his way to his friend's side. Pain exploded through him, but he was (as usual) too stubborn to back off. He wanted to be with Nyriko - he needed to be.
"We're gonna get out of this," he hissed, his hand finally gripping his friend's.

((OOOo! Becca! I forgot about the girl. :oops:))

(hahahaha, and you posted just before i went on vacation with no computer for a construction job. xD)

Matthew Onis nodded, feeling responsibility on his shoulders sink in. He wasn't the oldest teacher here, or the one in the best shape, as proven repeatedly lately. But he was the one that was available to guide these students to the dorms without them getting hurt, while Keito kept back as much as he could.

"Everyone stay close together, but do your best not to touch others of opposing elements. We need to walk fast, and may even have to run. " He'd felt the pipe burst and he shot some magic in its direction to seal it up again to try to help Keito a little bit. "I'll do my best along the way." He murmured so only Keito could here. "My metal isn't reacting too horribly yet, but it is reacting to this storm. I also had a student let me know of its origins. We need to discuss plans with other the other teachers in the dorms." With that he ushered them down the hall at a brisker pace than when he had been informing Keito of his own plans.

They reached the outdoors rapidly, and immediately the effects could be felt more severely. The storm was now raging with icy rain, and he cursed under his breath. He quickly forced the railings to the sides of them to spread out and form a barrier around the group, it acted kind of like a domed umbrella. Matt thanked whatever was listening repeatedly that the metal was not attached to him specifically, and wasn't magically touched besides having been attached to the school. It was much easier to control because of that fact.
(I made a Raine/Tohru outfit on here. If you guys want to see it :] )

Nodding, Keito grunted with the exertion of keeping the water from coursing through the school. "Thank you." His eyes widened as he reached up to wipe another drop from the frames of his glasses. "You're acting bravely, Onis." The instructor smiled grimly, ushering students after them more swiftly. He grimaced when they moved outside, but looked relieved when Matt formed an umbrella of sorts to keep the rain from hitting them.

((:XD Now I don't know what to do. :lol:))

(get a nice healthy post like you usally give, explaining what Becca's thoughts have been/actions she's been taking since the alarm got raised in Matt's defense class. :]
you could also post Jaz's response to Jai. Though Jaijin i currently posting at this very moment.
Keito can probably also release his old on the school. lots of repairs needed later of course. but that isn't their worry right now. :O ad could help with the guiding/relaz from using powers so much.)

"It's not bravery." He grunted, as he held the shield above them as they walked. "It's the old training speaking now." He kept walking, every now and than making sure all of the students were following, mostly sensing it through the metal, because he was spending most of his concentration on the shield and keeping the direction to the dorms straight.
"Okay, when I hold the shield to the side against the wind, when we get near the dorms, everyone run to the door and get inside. Understood?" it was a command. Maybe his military background was helpful after all.

Nodding to what the teacher was saying, “Well we could build a barricade that doesn’t act as a dampening field.” Quickly sketching it, while he was doing that jaz’s text came through as a notice in the top corner, hoping miss cooper wouldn’t see it he moved it to the side. “All it would require is three metal users and two earth users. It would fortify us in and they would have trouble getting to us while the teachers deal with them.” Smirking a little he was quite proud of himself at the idea. “Though the barricade would require all second year students to construct and maintain.”

Kazu was shaking as he felt his fire surge, seeing and feeling that the water barrier around him was flickering he shook harder trying to control it. It looked as if he had a fire barrier around him as he felt the warmest he had ever been. Is this what it’s like to be a high powered fire user? Am I even going to survive to see tomorrow? Seeing a person that looked like they didn’t belong in the distance. “I’m sorry teach but I need to get rid of this power somehow and he looks like he could use a good beating.” Kazu tossed his skates into the air and jumped landing in them as he latched them on he tore off toward the guy smiling If I live this will be one heck of a story to tell.

Becca hurried along with the other students, her brown eyes wider than ever. She was quiet - not that it was anything different. The dark-haired girl kept up with everyone; she feared being left behind. Listening to everyone panic and act frightened made the world seem so much more chaotic.
The earth called to her like nothing before. It felt like it wanted to rip open and consume everything and everyone. That very thought frightened Becca enough to attach herself to Keito's heel permanently. Though the instructors kept everyone in line it still felt like things were falling apart. It felt even worse when something caved.
-

Keito let out a breath as something burst inside the school. It was seconds later when a wave of water spilled from the nearest door, hardly stopping when it hit an invisible shield that Vincent shot up. The instructor released his hold on the school, casting a disapproving glance over to Kazu before forcing the tons of fluid back. It was trying to swallow them completely. The worst part was the temptation to just give in: to let it drink them up and just give up.
Of course it was Matt's military background that kept order amongst their ranks. What else would have kept them together? His words made Vincent grit his teeth and fight against the strange urge to just let the water rush over them. "I'm beginning to question my own judgement," the tall male growled, turning the closest water to a thick wall of ice. "I almost let it go."
-

When the water rushed them, Becca let out a yelp. For some reason there was something on Keito's face that made her afraid. Ducking down behind Matt, she shuddered . . . and watched as the ice was formed. She then moved farther from Vincent, looking up at Onis when he gave his orders. She wanted nothing more than to be safe in the dorms.

(I'm working on it! I'm sorry that I haven't been able to put anything up. My brain juices have been running low lately :/ But I am working on a post...mostly ideas for it >.<)

"Right." Kel stared blankly at the little screen of the students phone. than pointed at Krista. "You said you know another metal user, correct? Go find him, by now he should be within the common rooms somewhere with all of the other students. " She turned back To Jai, "Decent enough idea, and by the looks of it, its a sound plan. Go with her..." She looked at Krista again, "Sorry, what was your name again?"

"Krista."The startled girl said. She was still flinching a bit. But she had most of it under control now. Her body was telling her to curl up in a corner and cry until this passed over. Spoiled rich children, aren't particularly used to pain...

"Right, Go with Krista and collect the second year students that you can that will get the job done. If any teacher stops you explain the plan. They may be able to put in more input if its the correct element teacher as well. " She stared at the plans again, her thoughts confused. A protection shield that isn't a dampening field? "Well get to it! "

----------

"NO!" Matt Onis clenched his teeth as Kazu sped away on roller blades. "remind me Mr. Keito, that that boy, whoever he is, is in detention when this storm is over." He said it through gritted teeth out of annoyance, and as a general conversation piece to distract the students from the ... well the war that was raging around them all. They were about halfway across the lawn to the dorms now. It was a slow process with the concentration that both teachers were putting out to protect the students.


The group could hear the cackling cries of laughter all around them. If Kazu had been able to see clearly, he would have seen a group of people, instead of just one. The evil ones that had made the storm laughed with glee at the easy target that was running towards them. They knew nothing of the plans being laid within the borders of the dampening field. They could just sense the fear of every person on the St. Aethers campus. And they could taste the delicious death that was sure to take place in the next few hours. They would kill every last person. They could wait. They were patient.

Nyirko's eyes squeezed shut when Mandred said his last sentence. She had done it. And she wasn't dead. She opened them again just in time to see Mandred pass into unconsciousness. She turned her rather dull eyes to Sayren, her hand gripping his extremely tightly. Her whisper was part croak. "What did I do?" Her other hand snaked out to grasp a hold of Mandred again, feeling pain that she may have killed him. She didn't know if he was alive or not. She needed to get out of here. Her instincts were still telling her to run.

Screeching was heard that emphasized the lightning that was being brought by the user. He was terribly angry. He had finally reached the edge of the lake nearest to the other electricity users and the others. He pointed a finger at the trio, having forgotten that another was present. Words incomprehensible, he shouted as bolts shot from his hands, threatening to consume them.

Melesha had other plans. She would have rushed to make sure the children were alright but they weren't out of this yet. Having been watching and paying attention, her skin steaming where the rain touched, she saw the man begin his attack even before he had begun it. She had switched where she was standing, trusting the weak girl and unconscious boy to Sayren, and stood between the mad man and her precious students. Her face was calm and seemingly unbothered by the streak of lightning now descending on her. She blinked and a giant wall of flame flashed in front of her, absorbing the electricity. By rights, she should not have been able to stop it, fire being a rather…free spirit. But she had been doing this for years and her control was far better then most. Though sweat had finally started to drip down her face, she kept her concentration and whatever magic it was that kept everyone from keeping control still had no permanent effect on her.
When the lightning added it’s energy to her own, she moved a hand and her fire disappeared. She began to approach the electric user, fire literally in her eyes. [/color[
[color="DimGray]The man continued to screech, now at the woman approaching him. It appeared that he was starting to conjure something else up; something that was obviously big by the amount of energy it seemed to take from his surroundings.
Melesha didn’t give him a chance. Thanking her goddesses that she remembered her weapons that morning, she threw a knife at the man, aiming for his torso, his heart more specifically. It never hit its mark.
If it were light enough outside, the hand that had caught hold of the knifes handle before it hit his companion would have looked tan. Stormy red eyes turned on the Romanian woman, fury instantly lighting them up to match the fire in her own eyes. A grin then lit up the tall man’s face as long black hair swung behind him in the wind. Without obviously putting any effort into it, he flung a fireball of his own to hit his adversary, the rain not affecting it has it hadn’t the teacher’s fire. The little man behind him quickly moved away from the fire battle, hating it. He moved towards the three children, evil on his mind.
Melesha stopped moving, almost stopped breathing. It was only survival instinct that lead her to block the attack, stopping the ball in midair and letting it sizzle out. Her eyes no longer held that inner fire, having gone back to their natural black. They still glowed slightly, the control still trying to break free. Her eyes only watched the man in front of her; everything else seemed to be nothing. Her breath caught every time she took one. She spoke in her native tongue, her voice no longer full of her usual confident. “What are you doing here, Jumul?”

Nyirko’s eyes were going in and out of focus as she struggled with consciousness. This was really just too much. Her hand squeezed Sayrens even as it seemed to lose feeling from being cold. She realized she was drenched in cold water and she started to shiver uncontrollably. Her voice shook with the shaking when she whispered, “He’s going to try to kill us.”

"To hell with that," Sayren said, his features stony. He saw Nyriko's weakness and it tore into him like a blade: she was hurt, she needed attention . . . and this raving lunatic was causing more trouble than necessary. Sayren finally let his powers loose for just a moment - it was an accident, really. More like a momentary loss of control and outburst of rage and emotion.
Large column-like spikes of ice wrenched from the ground a few feet from where he held Nyriko. With a growl of exertion he felt frost form on the ground about them . . . and he swiftly tightened his hold on Nyirko as he felt her shiver. He could do nothing for her warmth - but he could try and help the instructor destroy the creature that threatened them.
-

Keito nodded at Matt, trying to focus on what he was saying. Something fogged his mind suddenly - like a tempting whiff of his favorite food. It was a familiar scent - one he hadn't tasted in a long while. Frowning, the silver-haired instructor felt his step falter. The group kept moving, but Vincent let his gaze focus on the wall of ice that he'd just brought up to keep the water back. Something's . . . moving?
Reaching his hand up to wipe away dusty frost, Keito frowned and took his glasses off. There was a figure just on the other side of the ice. She was . . . beautiful. The woman was the most incredible creature he'd ever seen: long hair flowing about her like a covering, her porcelain features full of fear; her eyes were even worse. They called out to him, pleading for help. Vincent first thought she was a student . . . but deep down he knew it wasn't true. This woman was a revenant of the storm: something unnatural.

Help me.

Keito heard her voice like warm velvet. It sent shivers through him . . . and compelled him to loosen his hold on the ice and water throughout the school.

Please don't let me die.

The instructor felt his resolve crumbling. How could he refuse her help? His hand fell away from the wall of ice just as it began to trick with moisture. It was dissolving.

(my post is going to be mad short this time. Jaijin and I are getting an apartment, and things are super stressful here right now.)

Matt felt a presence in pain out within the storm, but couldn't see her, or tell where she was. he rushed the others the rest of the way to the dorms and ushered them inside. "Keito. Find out what's going on in there. There's someone still out here." He gritted his teeth with frustration and concentration as he turned and found the teacher not there. All the chaotic emotions flowing around him and stopped him from noticing the other instructors absence. "Shit." He mumured under his breath. Than without a sheild around him he rushed back out into the storm. And was immedeitly faced with a huge decision. Save the girl suspended in air, or the teacher that was dropping his protection on the school. Even from here he could see the ice walls beginning to melt. "KEITO!" He screamed as loud as he could.

Raine's head jerked back in a spasm of pain and she let out a blood curdling cry, that she herself was deaf too.

Mandred felt like he was floating. Everything was so cold. But he'd done it, he'd saved her. A brief thought that he was dead passed through his mind, but he pushed it away. He was only knocked out, used to much energy. That had to be it...

Nyirko shivered in the cold but she didn't let it show on her face. She closed her eyes tightly, realizing that she had to be stronger then this. Not just for herself, but for Ren too. Keeping a hand on Mandred to make sure that he still lived at least, she used her other arm to hold herself to Sayren. It was as much of a hug as she could manage. Her lips brushed by his ear and she whispered very faintly, "He's all yours, Frosty." Then with strength that came out of nowhere, she shoved herself from him back to the ground so that he was free to do what he needed to. She gasped a bit when she hit the ground but rolled until she was closer to Mandred. She hoped her friend would get the message at least. She may not have control over her power but she had control over herself and other ways to help.

Without thinking about what he was doing, Archen flew up into the air straight towards Raine/Tohru. He was being buffeted from all sides but he had more control then he ever let on. His flight pattern did go askew a few times but he always righted quickly. He finally reached her and his not exactly strong arms clamped themselves around the girl and he closed his eyes against the power that was now being directed at the both of them. He sent out his own energy, thankfully keeping most of the blades of air away. He didn’t think he could keep it up for much longer, however. So he did the only thing that he could think of….both him and RT dropped to the ground as he threw out hand. Thankfully his magic was mostly working. The air caught them just before they hit, slowing the descent so that they merely landed on the ground instead of crashed.
Without waiting another beat, an arm still clutching to the girl, he began to run towards the nearest building, thinking that shelter would help at least. They never made it. Wind picked up and seemed to wrap itself around the two students, cutting off movement for it was like a cage. Archen’s teeth ground together and his normally pale eyes flashed completely white as he pushed with his own magic. Shit. “LET US GO!” He shouted but he didn’t know who he was shouting to. He couldn’t see the user.

He was getting closer. The darkness was coming closer after the chaos that the other elements created. He was standing on a height now, at the edge of St. Aethers, watching the havoc his minions were creating. He had no real substance. He was just…dark. Darkness with an evil grin on his face. If he was allowed into this sanctuary, he was going to destroy it.

(Hope you don't mind the nickname Archen gave Raine and Tohrun >.<
OH, and I'm working on Melesha's post. It's going to be an epic fire batter ^^ Sorry for the spoiler :D And someone might have to cool her down :XD)

Hearing his name, Vincent suddenly tore his gaze away from the floating nymph before him. Seeing Matt near the dorms, heading his way, the instructor blinked slowly. Instead of responding, the male seemed to offer his hand to the graceful creature that reached for him. Keito helped the tall woman step down beside him as ice shifted to release her. Water began to torrent from under doors and a few loud bursts signaled the first burst of many pipes. The school would be lost soon - to the storm, and to the elements that were ravaging over and through it.

As though stepping into the place of puppeteer the pale woman's white eyes flickered to Onis . . . and she smiled sweetly as her icy hair rose about her. Moving her arm as though to point to Matt seemed to bring Vincent to do the same. "Game over," she whispered, her voice coming out like the rushing of water. The movement of rain and waterfalls became a rush toward Onis as though intending to crush him.
She was using Vincent to control the frigid water - and she very much intended to get rid of Matt.

When he felt Nyirko's breath on his ear, Sayren seemed to understand her whispered words. He let her fall away from him, his maroon eyes ablaze. Ice spiked up all about them, creating a shield . . . and then whizzing through the air in small shards toward the attacker. Sayren's features became as cold and blank as his element; frost and frigid air became the only thing the youth could feel as temperatures dropped well below a comfortable level.
Channeling the rush of energy and power toward the creature that was threatening them, Sayren's cold mask became a part of him - just as the frost coating his arms and face. He would rip the thing to shreds if it didn't have a counter to his abilities. He didn't care if Melesha got in the way (or didn't seem to); he knew she could protect herself.

Matt Onis had intended to pull Keito's attention back to Earth. Something was distracting the man. He'd only wanted to get his attention so that he could save the student. But the world had suddenly taken a nasty twist. As if in slow motion he watched as Keito raised his hand and pointed it at him. A boy flew into the air from near him and grabbed the girl from the air. Then everything in the water around shifted and headed straight for him.

Raine felt the power of the storm release her as a huge weight hit her. She felt herself falling and wondered if she was dying, had her rebellions finally gotten to the peak point of striking back at her? All she could do was stare up into the sky and wait for the impact to come, it never did. Finally she blinked open her eyes and realized she was being carried by grumpy guts. Just before she could open her mouth to speak everything around them went still, and she found she couldn't move.
She could move her eyes though, and she looked at him with terror, "We're going to die aren't we? And its all my fault."
She could feel injuries all over herself, they could be cuts, or just raw marks from the wind that had attacked her. She didn't really know.
Slowly, as if groggily waking up from a dream she turned her head and looked around. There was a teacher outside their bubble. The storm was still raging on, but it was deathly quiet in their bubble, no sound of wind even. She forced her legs to stand on their own and pulled away from him gently, taking one of his hands so as not to lose contact. "We have to get out of here."
With the best effort she could, she forced Tohru to wake up her water powers. "come on you little weakling. We're going to need to work together. All of us."

The rain felt like bee stings as it pelted Matt ferociously. He reached out to the metal shield he'd used before and shoved it in front of him, slamming it into the ground. Just in time to stop the rush of water from crushing him.It swarmed into the metal with such force that he wasn't sure how long he would be able to hold up against the force.

(Bad guys profiles will be up soon)

“I didn’t’ expect you, soră.” Sister. He didnt talk in Romanian with Melesha except that one word, refusing to even speak his peoples tongue. ”Quite the surprise, of course. Don’t die too quickly, it would ruin my fun.” Without moving, grey fire spat at Melesha, burning very hotly.

She couldn’t see. Not truely. Her eyes were blind with emotions. But her body reacted to the feeling of it’s forever companion, treating the fire Jumul threw as if it were it’s own. The flames swirled around Melesha instead of hitting her, as if a tunnel of wind where controlling it, the color changing back to their natural Fall colors. Then she was back, and fire burned in her eyes as she glared at him. Her control had slipped but that was the last time.
Inhaling, the fire seemed to freeze mid-swirl. Then when she let the breath go, the fire screamed towards the evil man, faster then his had been.

He began laughing. For the first time, truly, he was having a real fight. Of course, his curiosity was getting the better of him. He grabbed the fire she spouted back at him and extinguished it with ease. ”I hope that isn’t all you have, soră. And what, may I ask, are you doing here?”

Finally, Melesha was back. Her eyes danced with flame as she smiled something cruel towards him. ”I work here, frate.” Brother. Suddenly, fire lit in her hand and blade of flame unraveled itself. She sprang into a run, faster then most should and striked at her brother. Her blade crackled and sparks lept from the fire as it crashed with Jumull’s own grey incendiu (fire) blade.
He sneered at her. ”Incendiu blades take a lot to use, Melesha. How did you learn this trick?”
"It comes with the job.” She disconnected and then lunged again, going for the kill. She was not in a good mood again.
Jumull parried and blocked every attack. Soon, they were flurries of fire and black hair, dancing around and through each other. Her fire was the only light that permerated the ground right then. Everything else was getting so dreary and dull and dark. They danced around the spikes of ice that shot up, an indication in the back of Melesha’s mind that a student might be in danger
Finally they stopped, having sprung apart. Melesha was littered with cuts that were still aflame, not that she paid them any mind. Jumull had fewer but he didn’t go unscathed. ”Leave, Jumull. This domain is no longer yours. And you’ll only get yourself killed.” Her eyes still burned with fury at him.
His only response was to laugh at her even as his fury that she could work in this place started to consume him.

The lightning mage cackled as he sprang deftly out of Sayren’s ice attack. It was nothing but child’s play. The man smiled nastily at his now oppoent. He would have the girl. That was the goal.
Sparks flashed as the man dodged the spikes, coming ever closer to the children. He had a plan, and he would electrocute the ice boy and take the girl. She belonged to him.
Nyirko watched from where she lay, hoping and praying Sayren wouldn’t get hurt. But then she saw it. What the man was doing. ”REN! DON’T LET HIM TOUCH THE ICE!” She shrieked at him, causing lightning, real purple majestic lightning to strike in the air. Something the makers of the storm weren’t expecting. There was supposed to be nothing real about their chaos.

Archen watched the teacher with nothing on his face. He was becoming what his parents had hated. Nothing. His voice was quiet and rough when he said, ” Would love to, RT, but that’s a little hard at the moment. I think water and wind are working together against us.” He used the nickname he came up with without thinking about it. ”If theres anyway you could distract the wind-bearer, I could assist the teacher. Or you could get control and help him while I deal with the wind. Either way, we got to act fast.” He was calmer. Far calmer then he should have been in this situation. His eyes were pure whit orbs as he worked his wind around the box that kept them in. He was trying to find the weaknesses.

As though Vincent was merely an extension of herself, the willowy creature smiled and stepped forward. "I almost feel sorry for you people." Keito's movements brought the rushing water from the ice walls crashing down about Matt's feet. It was only the beginning of the waves that seemed to form out of nowhere, lashing at the other instructor with enough force to knock him farther from the building.
Though dripping, Vincent looked deathly serious - he aimed to kill. The white woman controlling his actions wanted Onis dead and out of the way.

((:eager: Excitement!! Woot!))

Sayren heard Nyirko's warning just as the purple streak shot through the air. It startled him just in time - his ice broke around the mage like water parting around a stone. "Then what do I do?" The youth yelled in order to be heard, and he watched their opponent with a look of cold determination. "How do I stop him?"
The wear of using so much power was tickling the back of his mind but Sayren managed to ignore it. Pulling his frost back with much effort, Sayren growled under his breath and glared at the lightning mage.

Looking around for jaz, jai pulled out his phone I need your help jaz, where are you? still looking around "I remember you from when i pulled into the parking lot with my car, we need to find some second year students you wouldn't happen to know anyone?" looking around confused he thought of where the best place would be to defend themselves. Immediately he thought of the gap between buildings, it was large enough to hold the students and the teachers could easily defend them from there. "Quickly get everyone between the dorms not in them, if we are in them the can just collapse them around us." He yelled towards the teacher that he could no longer see due to other students.

Kazu just kept skating directly towards the guy, until he finally saw that it was a group and was shocked. He tried to slow down but noticed that his skates no longer had traction, when he looked down he saw a path of ice leading towards that guy he had torn off towards. Think you dummy what can you do so you can live till tomorrow, looking around he noticed that the sheet of ice was very thin. Turning up the heat on his skates he melted right through the ice and stopped in a what are you gonna do now mister bad guy.

As if on cue the ice user looked directly at kazu and said "So the little boy thinks that he can play with the big dogs." Laughing he formed a bow out of ice with no string, pulling back slowly where the string would be an arrow formed "Dodge This You Punk!" as he let the arrow fly towards kazu.

Kazu watched as the arrow came towards him, he responded as fast as he could by releasing all of the stored energy out of his body. When this happened, his knees buckled woah that was a bad idea. "I don't think i can play with the big dogs, i own the big dogs," quickly realizing that when he said this it would only antagonize him even more, kazu started to jet out of there dodging arrows left and right.
