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. ^_^

Time to repent (V)
He entered the auditorium with a straight face; he was over an hour early for the time he had written down on the note. It had taken him nearly two full days in the gravity chamber to come up with what he needed to say to the woman he had said with the rose. Then it took him the rest of the third day to get the gravity back under control and to come up with the letter to write her to get her to come here. The letter had been the harder of the parts. It read as follows.
“Dear V,
I know we do not know each other well. But I hope you will trust in me enough to come to the Auditorium at 7 pm on Friday. I must speak with thee,
Very respectfully yours, Jun-Bo Tsuen”
He did not have any better to right. He could not mention why in case it fell in the wrong hands and he did not know who he could trust with the task if getting it to her, so he had taken the time to wait tell he saw her go in her room and no one else was there and then slide the note under her door and knock to get her attention. The note had been folded in the form of a crane.
He moved down the steps, as there was no one there period. He had made damn sure no one was around. He sat down on the stage and waited. He did not know what else to do, he had wanted to beat her for sure so he had shown up an hour early. He was wearing jeans and a sleeveless shirt. The shirt said “God give you mercy, because the devil won’t”. He was sitting there waiting to find out if he gets to met the devil of god this day.
The (honorable; noble; samurai; tacit liar) fourteen year old boy, Jun-Bo Tsuen, goes through the motions. He stays in the gravity chamber; he aches. He, finally, pens a letter; and, perhaps more finally, lurks on the fourth floor of the dormitories, until he sees V go (alone) into her room.
Friday arrives, and Jun-Bo arrives at the school's auditorium early; the clock is as round as a full moon or ripened cherries. The hands inch forward. Tick tock; tick tock; tick tock.
Finally, the door opens, and a lone, slender shadow stretches from the hallway, down the empty space in front of the stage. Enter! V.
Jun-Bo's legs are dangling off the stage, and he's not hidden from sight; it's obvious she got his note. Now what?
Re: Time to Repent (V)
He heard the door opened and leaped down from the stage. He landing lightly as he listened and watched to see who it is. As the lass he has been waiting for enters the room, both sparkle and dappen a bit. He had been trying to get in a decent mood for this, but he was not sure how he could due such a thing. Once she could be made out, Jun calmly started striding towards her, he had made up his mind alright about how he was going to handle this and he was not going back on his own detrimination. He contuined to move along the pathway towards her. His own shadow look like a demon of a sort when you added in the chairs, but only for a second. Maybe it was because he felt along those lines currently. He contuined to move, his hands were empty of every but air. He wondered if she was armed. He decided he had better hail her before she thinks this is too creeping and bolts.
"Thank you for coming, and gracing me with your presence."
He was just speaking currently to bid the time he needed to get near her. If she could see behind him. He did have a tonto with him, but she does not know this yet.
Re: Time to Repent
He hops to the ground and comes striding toward her and, while his body is a boy's, his stride is a (war-like) man's; very purposeful, it eats the ground. And Genevieve stops, three steps in from the doorway, which is still open; a rectangle of light.
And it suits her; shadows define her shape, her features. Where shadows are not, light makes her skin luminous; catches in her golden hair [radiant] and even [ember-low] in her golden eyes.
At any movement, shadow and light slides; rearranges the composition - and she is very composed, although when Jun-Bo Tsuen comes striding toward her, his short samurai sword hidden behind, she doesn't move to meet him.
"You're welcome." Simple, enough. Quiet: "What did you want to say?"
Re: Time to Repent
He does not break his stride tell he is just before her and then he kneels down placing his forehead on the ground in front of her as he would his Clan leader. He keeps his head bowed as he speaks. His voice is one of a man worried about his misdeed and of a man ready to do what he must. His tonto was now visable with him leaned forward.
"I wrong you. Even if I knew not how or why, I have. I asked you here today so I could seek for forgiveness and ask for explaination of my misdeed againest you. As to why the rose made me a tratior."
He truely sounded hurt at the tratior part because he had never done such in his life. He was not sure how he did it now but it seems he had and he was ready to pay the price.

Re: Time to Repent
The slender, golden teenager is quiet throughout this play. And, really, what should she say? What is it she should do?
There is nothing beside quiet, and V doesn't interrupt when the (not quite a) boy kneels and bows his head. She has been called Hime/princess by different people who knew nothing at all about each other with entirely different temperaments; there's a reason for that.
Re: Time to Repent
He listened to her words and thought about it. He was not sure wither she was going to be upset about him having brought a rose or not. He wonder lightly what he should due. He raised him self up and looked to her. He was on his kneels and sitting on his heels. He looks into her eyes and tries to gauge how she was taking his actions. He does notice that her face is flushing or blushes he looks to her and bite his lip once.
"I am sorry I brought roses to the healers. I did not know that you hated them. May i ask why?"
He contuines to watch her for reaction. He was still ready to draw his blade if she was offended by his bringing the rose.
Re: Time to Repent
"You can ask. I've never liked roses; please don't ever bring them near me again."
He tries to gauge her reactions, and these are the tools he has to do so. His experience, somewhat faulty; his knowledge of V, certainly very little. When he looks up, she remains with her arms folded across her chest; her bright gaze, as warm as honey, as gold, shadowed - this is a trick of the light. Certainly, she is focused on him; certainly, her expression is serious. Grave. Just as certainly, she is to be noted for her poise; certainly, it seems an elemental part of who she is.
The pink is fading from her cheeks, although slowly.
Things V has not said.
1. You are forgiven.
2. It's okay.
3. I hate you.
Re: Time to Repent
He stared into her eyes and his face when calm as stone and his hand reached behind his back and he pulled his tanto lightly and then laid it open blade in front of him, the blade towards him self. He never took his eyes off of hers. He was calm as stone and his breath was even.
"What shall I do about it."
He have stated and half asked the thing. He now had his cermonaly blade in front of him blade towards him. Only those who studied the old Japanese ways or lived during his time would know what it ment. He looks to her and waited for her answer.
Re: Time to Repent
V has, apparently, been holding her breath; it hisses out on the exhale, and she doesn't flinch from Gideon's regard. She regards him; unfortunately, what she gives away, what he gives away, are very different things.
This is a scene from a film, where things take on mythic proportions; where samurai exist, and aren't just mouldy legends.
Jun-Bo's gestures are ceremonial; V's response is quiet. Light is defined by shadow; shadow is defined by light. "You are offering me your life?"
Re: Time to Repent
He looked into her eyes and smiled lightly. He wondered if he really wanted to trust his life in the hands of a stranger. With only a moment’s hesitation he answered confidently. His voice was level and to the point.
“Yes, I am giving you the right to chose with my crime is worthy of my life or if it can be forgiven, and forgotten.”
He was straight to the point. He was not too worried about wither he would die this day or not. He had died before and if he died now it would only be the end of a very long life. He could say he lived a long happy life. He waited for her to chose with a stone face, waiting for her to chose.
What does she think? The right to choose whether my crime is worthy of my life ...
Inscrutable as ever, Genevieve finally unfolds her arms, smooths a strand of golden (shining) hair back behind her ear. Then she holds out her hand.
"Let me see the sword. The - tanto?" The sentence is said naturally, the cadences simple; unadorned. No drama. V has such a nice voice, and such control of it, although a note of question was there in the last word. She doesn't know much about samurai weapons. She doesn't know much about weaponry.
Re: Time to Repent
He took the blade with both hands and raises it up so the hilt is facing towards her. He holds it with his eyes cast to her face. It was not normal for a man who was giving this right to look at the person's face but neither was his crime. He wanted to see her face, because he could tell things from it wither she wanted people to or not. He held the blade so that the light shined on the blade.
"Correct it is a Tanto"
He reffered to the blade by its type. He had given this blade a name long ago, because he had held it by his side for many years now. He just contuine to kneel there waiting calmly for her verdict.
Re: Time to Repent
"You would make a terrible Buddhist," she says, with the faintest of smiles. The smile is a shadow of what it should be (could be). A life spent schooling her expression; illegibility. She accepts the sword; holds it, and has, obviously, never held one of its ilk before.
What does she mean by that? Why, he can read that: He's there, kneeling and offering humility, the power to take his life, and he's not truly humble. His desire to see what judgement will come causes him to look up, and by that, make his offer less sincere?
And how could anybody consider him sincere? V, take somebody's life? She may not be all smiles and laughter, but she doesn't appear to be a killer. (This is not the sort of family business V has been allowed to be a part of. Cloistered-girl, raised away-from-the-world.) Her expression is very, very serious as she adjusts her grip to the handle.
Adjusts to the balance and the weight of it. And holds it, poised, to go through the base of his throat. They're still for so long the hallway's light shuts off automatically, and the fan comes whirring on. She'll say something, then.
And when that's been said, the (carved of light, truly) girl will offer the tanto back to Jun-Bo, and when he takes it, turn to go.

Re: Time to Repent
He listens to her speak of the Buddhist and remains solicit on his position. He sits there quietly as she takes the sword and looks it over. He does not flinch as she flips over the blade and points it towards his throat. He continues to look up at her. He waited calmly for her to slices his throat. After a moment she turns the blade around and hands it back to him. He stood slowly taking the handle of his blade and sliding it back into its place on his hip. It was symbolic of him taking his life back, or being given his life back. He bowed to her before she turned and then straightened his back. “I thank you for the trust.” He watches her leave before him. He had questions but this was not the time for such things.
Re: Time to Repent
Once she had left the building he slide the tanto back home and started his walk back to his room. He had things that needed to be done and things that since he was still alive could be done. He smirked lightly at the thought of her taking his tanto and dieing by it. He thought it would not have been a bad way to die. It would be far better then dieing by the hand of an eastern vampire. He sighed and shook his head as he opened the door and walked out of it with a shake of his head. He wondered lightly if he would ever get his old body back.
