We have added a few things to the requirements to power and ability upgrades. Be sure and read the details in the most recent update when you request a new power / upgrade.
Well, its the weekend here at MHS. Wouldn't it be great if all schools started on a Friday for the first day of school. What a way to start off. You get a weekend right after your first day. Well, this is because we are done with the first day of class. How so you ask. As you only went to one class. yes, but I am sure that doing the same thing for each class would get boring. So the one class you experienced is basically how all the classes are going to be.
Teacher posts role. Day gets started, end of class happens, everyone goes to their next class, or home..
Well, ezboard still hasn't confirmed anything on a final date when everything is changed over to Yuku. And we are working on what to do next. We all want user friendliness after everything is changed away from Ezbaord, and we are trying everything we can to ensure that we have just that when we are at a new board hosting site.
We have a guest book. Take a look. If you haven't taken a look yet, be sure and do so. ^_^

The Blind Leading The Blind((open))
Maaz sat by the lake, remembering the last time she had been near the forest. It had resulted in her and a few people she met end up in the nurse's office. Well, Maaz mostly. She was the one who had gotten hurt, all because she couldn't defend herself. Being blind definately had it's down points. As she sat down now, she didn't know what color everything was. She couldn't identify blue from green nor red from black. Actually, all she knew was black and white. Those were the colors in her head. Those were the colors she saw when she made mental pictures. Black and white. She was making a mental picture for herself at that moment, sitting by herself by the lake.
Her psychic arms came out, the four primary ones, and felt all around her immediate area. She touched herself first, trying to make a picture of herself. Maaz never knew how she looked. It didn't work, it never did. She then spread her arms around where she sat, feeling the grass and then labeling it as 'grass'. She moved out farther and touched the water. She had heard it as well but touching it with her psychic hands were better. She could feel the cool ripple of the water as her fingers grazed the surface. She dipped below it and felt fish. She spoke it aloud into the calm serene afternoon.
"Fish." Students walking up on Maaz would think her weird for saying random words like fish. But what did the word 'weird' mean to a girl born from the alignment of the planets?
Swimming through the lake, Merciah comes up from under the water to see a girl on the beach. Appearing to look at nothing but everything at the same time he is unsure as to what she is doing. With a closer inspection she appears to be concentrating on something, and what ever it is, sight is not being required, as he notices through the pupils of her eyes, that she is lacking the ability of sight.
"Good day miss." Merciah says, to anounce his presence in greeting.

"Good day miss."
Maaz stiffened and then backed away. She didn't know anyone was there. She had heard noises coming from the water but thought it was the fish. Who was he? What did he want?
"Miss? This one is not miss. This one is Maaz. Who are you?" Maaz stretched out her psychic arms in his general direction, trying to get a mental picture of the man talking to her. She didn't know if he was one of the men chasing her from before and didn't want to get caught unarmed and unprepared. Her psychic arms stretched out but didn't come into contact with anything. She moved them out farther and tried to find him.
Re: The Blind Leading The Blind((open))
Not sure how to react to her first words, but seeing her physical reaction as she stiffens, Merciah stops, and bows, out of habit, not to mock the girl, as he introduces himself.
"Forgive me if I startled you. I am Merciah, and I do not believe we have met before." Merciah answer the girls final question.

Re: The Blind Leading The Blind((open))
"Forgive me if I startled you. I am Merciah, and I do not believe we have met before."
Maaz, still cautious, stood and put up her psychic arms in defense. Her voice was flat and cold. "This one is Maaz. If this one does not know Merciah, why does Merciah want to talk to this one?"
Maaz wasn't normally this aggressive but she felt the need to being that she wasn't close to the school. He could be one of the men chasing her from before...
Re: The Blind Leading The Blind((open))
"Well, we were both here at that lake, and forgive me if I seem rude." Merciah begins evenly, "But I had noticed your eyes, and I wished to be polite by anouncing myself in greeting. If you wish not to speak with me, it does not bother me. I was simply being considerate."" Merciah finishes in reply to the girls question as to why he spoke to her.

Re: The Blind Leading The Blind((open))
Maaz relaxed a bit when he offered not to talk to her. The others would have attacked her by now. He could be trusted...enough.
"This one is...sorry. Maaz was rude. This one is unable to see so this one is always careful not to get into trouble. Maaz...likes company. Will Merciah be company?" Maaz said, a bit more gentle. Although still a bit nerved by him, Merciah sounded nice enough.
Re: The Blind Leading The Blind((open))
Listening to the way the girl speaks, Merciah thinks on his words, remembering when he had just gotten to Manga High School, and how he had even less control over the English language then this girl. "I suppose I could be company." Merciah offers.
After which, he decides to ask what is on his mind. "Might I ask? How long have you been in the United States?"

Re: The Blind Leading The Blind((open))
"I suppose I could be company."
Maaz smiled, happy that Merciah had decided to stay. His second question confused her for a second. It then translated to her as being 'how old are you?'
"This one has 16 years. How many years does Merciah have?" She wondered slightly what the United States was until she remembered her lessons with Decennium. "This one has been here for the same amount of time though this one also travels alot. This one can't stay in one place for too long..."
Re: The Blind Leading The Blind((open))
Listening to the girls replies to his question, Merciah is confused as to the reason why she has such difficulty with English if she grew up in the United States. In such, he asks. "I have another question." He begins, "Why do you have such difficulty with English if you grew up here?"

Re: The Blind Leading The Blind((open))
"Why do you have such difficultly with English if you grew up here?"
That stopped Maaz completely in her tracks. Difficultly with English? She always thought she talked fine enough to get herself by. It wasn't well but no one had ever said she was having difficultly with the language. Even Decennium said she spoke well enough.
"This one...doesn't think there is any difficultly with her English. Is there? Is this one speaking wrong?" Maaz asked, a little hurt.
Hearing the girls words, Merciah doesn't know how someone would be able to speak, and regularly refere to themselves in third person, without noticing the difference. "I admit, that I am not skilled at speaking this language, and I am still learning the words." Merciah begins. "Though I have not met anyone who regularly refered to themselves as 'this one' or by name or any other form of third person perspective."

Re: The Blind Leading The Blind((open))
"I admit, that I am not skilled at speaking this language, and I am still learning the words. Though I have not met anyone who regularly referred to themselves as 'this one' or by name or any other form of third person perspective." Merciah said. To Maaz, this conversation was becoming threatening. Why was he so curious about the way she spoke? Sure, she had been taught English but it had been about six or seven years since she spoke it regularly. Ever since Decennium...
"Careful, Maaz," a sinister voice whispered in her head. "He could be one of the scientists." Maaz tensed and stood, but her face revealed nothing. If he wanted to hurt her, Maaz could easily fend him off. He wasn't one of the beasts in the forest, he was just another human...
"Maaz speaks English fine enough. This one would like to know, Merciah, what is Merciah's power? Everyone at the school has one, Merciah should too." Maaz said, her voice flat once again. She could learn his power and attack him using his weakness, if he did indeed have a power and was a student.
Re: The Blind Leading The Blind((open))
As the girl listens to his words, Merciah notices that she seems to tense up. He notices by her bodily expression, and then her question. "If you were told that everyone at this school has a power, sadly, they were mistaken. As I am example enough of that, being I have no super human power, like the rest tend to regularly say they have." Merciah explains.
"I have just me and my body, nothing more."

"Good." Maaz said, smiling. She wouldn't attack him just yet, he didn't push her enough. Maaz was just being cautious. Nevertheless, her four primary psychic arms reemerged and set themselves about her, ready for any action that had to be taken. "Is Mer--...are... you hungry?" she asked, taking into account the way Merciah talked. It would be best, if he were a scientist, to act like him. It felt strange to Maaz to talk in this fashion but if she did indeed talk weird, they would find her...
Re: The Blind Leading The Blind((open))
"Why do you ask? Do you wish for something to eat? I had some vegetables prepared that I brought with me if you'd like some." Merciah offers the girl in response to her question of whether he is hungry or not.
Walking over to his clothes, he dresses himself, not haven been ashamed once the entire time he was in the water, even though he was unclothed.

Re: The Blind Leading The Blind((open))
"Why do you ask? Do you wish for something to eat? I had some vegetables prepared that I brought with me if you'd like some."
Maaz nodded, lying for the second time in her life. The first time she lied she had told admissions, along with a few others, her name was Rikku but she didn't use that name anymore, Maaz had completely forgotten that she was being pursued in the comfort of the school. She heard Merciah get out of the water and followed his movements with her eyes. He was moving away from her, doing something Maaz couldn't pinpoint, but he was far enough so that her psychic arms couldn't touch him. Maybe he really wasn't trying to hurt her, or maybe he knew the limits of her abilities...
"Who are you, really?" Maaz asked, once again mimicking Merciah's speech. She'd rather have the truth out in the open and hated being on defense all the time. It would be easier if she just knew whether or not he wanted to hurt her.
Re: The Blind Leading The Blind((open))
As Merciah finishes gathering the vegetables that he had prepared, he walks over to the girl as he saw her nod, with the food in hand. "Do you use chopsticks, as I am just noticing, I don't have anything else for eating with. I don't usually use western utensils when eating my food." Merciah asks, not knowing how she is going to eat, being blind, and knowing that the use of chopsticks is difficult, if near impossible to eat vegetables with if you can't see what you are trying to eat.
Then as he awaits her reply, she asks him a question. Who is he, really? "I am Merciah." He answers. "I am sorry. I thought I already introduced myself. I apologize for failing to do so." Merciah says, thinking he ahd already done so, but deciding either she forgot, or he remembered incorrectly. As he doesn't understand the intonation she means, when she asks the question of who he really is.
