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. ^_^

Akai arms were bare do to the nature of the shirt he wore, a simple muscled T, which clung tight upon his torso, bare shoulders were curtianed with the spillings of his now longer locks of hair. That hellish golden glow never ceased since he had reopened his eyes.
This thing, distraught, and fearful of him -- but that's not what Akai had wanted, he wanted this thing destroyed."I guess its true afterall. . . Only five around less than five minutes and causing a rift between he and his closest friend and for that -- he will never forgive this machine. ". . .androids do experience fear"
. . .can she sence it?
Amber started to move and though it may have appeared that Akai was not paying attention - when she moved this trained fighter instincts new it was with purpose, with intent -- intent and purpose to hurt. . .
. . .him!
Those eyes lifted up from the machine and turned towards Amber, she was fast - but nowhere near as fast as he was. An arm is what she wanted to clutch, an arm is what she want to grasp and press the Djibril against, and an arm was indeed clutched, indeed pressed against, but was it the arm she wanted to wanted? The heavy bandaged right arm lifted up and intervened [no skin to touch directly] -- and that's where she was held, at arms length, Akai was going to make sure Amber would not pentrate deeper into his defense, and he was prepared to do that at all cost.

Re: Return to Darkness. [open]"What is this. . ."
It took all of her might not to feel scared or worry. Djibril had not been for his arm, instead it was for her to make a connection. Any contact, anything to connect with him. Humans connect by touch and was a basic need at times.
Could he sense what she had actually been aiming for? No...not his arm but his neck, his face, something not bandaged. But she had not made such a hasty move for all she wanted was another try to reach "Akai" without having to use force.
"No more, it's enough." She hugged his arm tight. "Ramsey isn't moving...it's not right to hurt someone-or something while they're down."
Her dark eyes (so pretty when they carried the docile notions) stared up at him, waiting to see if he would strike out at her, push her away or...

The intense glare didn't falter in the wake of what Amber had said, but it did return to a more familiar site -- to those cold blue eyes. The golden flares, flicker once, flicker twice - then fades away slowly as the glacier surfaces again again. This is normal, this is Akai.
"I'm through wasting my efforts. . ." No glance is offered towards that pathetic waste of technogoly as Amber real intentions were still not determined. ". . .for now." A scoff rolled from his lips, as he put alittle distance between he and Amber -- taking a step back, offering his back to her as his twisted on his heels.
His hands slipped into deep tresses of the leather pants, gaze leveled out over the rest of the school, virtually staring out into the distance before him. A moment of silence gripping tight, reflective thinking spent on the past five minutes and what could've, what might have been done differently, but Akai was not some one who mourned mistakes made - he was someone who believed in his convictions.
"Never trust them Amber." A wind began to blow, ripping over and through the rooftops -- upon them, it howled spitefully at Akai, raising those black and crimson colored locks up from the back of his neck - the flesh was marked underneathe the hair and for the first time, she could see the roman numerial X. It was a mark of rememberance for from whence one like him came.
A mark that shall never be forgoten. . Edited by: Makurayami at: 2/13/07 2:04 pm
Re: Return to Darkness. [open]
The world around Ramsey was filled with unease and stronger emotions. Something inside RAmsey's mind would not stray form the purpose her father had set her out for. Learn to be more than the others, be normal. Ramsey's wings slowly started to retract to thier smaller more hideable size. Shi started to Stir, hir hands reach out for something, Ramseys head lulls to the side. You can see a hint of the roman numeral three on hir necck. The third in the Ramsey series, the only hope to make the operation a sucess.
Hir voice can be heard as shi murmers in her dream. Shi begins to wake, the fingers pull at the concrete as if trying to claw thier way out of it.

Re: Return to Darkness. [open]They all bear marks of the past and present...
"Never trust them Amber."
Akai had turned away, offering her his back while maintaining a distance. It may have been for the best as he wouldn't have to see the dejected expression that crossed the nephilim's face. Akai may have resurfaced, may have stopped from attacking the android any further than needed and yet...to be the recieving end of that icy glare from her friend was a painful reward.
Roman Numeral: X
Unable to say anything else to him, she walked over to Ramsey, peering over her to see if she was all right...as best as one could be at least. The winged girl says nothing and kneels down like a curious child looking over a bird, watching as Ramsey was in a state of sleep. Could androids dream? If they could then what do they dream about?
Roman Numeral: III
"No.....won't hurt anyone...."
Very few the nephilim would or could trust. Yet her accuracy in judging others was mostly spot on...or so she was told. Amber would follow what she felt, that was just her way.
"You won't. You are what you are made for, ne?"
A calm question that could pierce through dreams. Saying what she needed, Amber stood up and trotted over to where her sword waited; never once looking back to Akai or Ramsey. She had dropped it in a fit of fear but the image that had aroused that fear vanished, carried off by the wind's howl.
And the odd one out: the unseen, thick, henna-like vines snaking along the small of her back.
Amber slid the sword back in its laquer-dark scabbard, gold printed flowers glimmering in the moonlight. She clutched the sword close and without saying another word, stood up and walked towards the rooftop door.

Re: Return to Darkness. [open]". . .You are what you are made for. . ."
That sparked Akai to look at the nephilim, wondering why she couldn't see what he could see after saying that - the entire thing that sparked his outburst of violence was because of his knowing that Ramsey would do exactly what it was made for, be exactly what it's creator had hoped - to live up to the ambitions of a someone twisted.
To be a cold killer.
Ramsey was the third in a series of three, and Akai would never forget but he wonders what blinds his closest friend to that matter when chooses such parting words to speak to this thing. Focusing on her she sheathed her sword, teeth grazed the bottom lips as words started to draw out.
"Your words of encouragment. . .remember, remember. " That regal air, the way he carried himself, the way he moved to go and picked up his leather jacket was not something that could be taught, it was something that was bred into his DNA -- the bearings, the grace, the arrougance of a God. "For Ramsey, the android itself proclaimed they were made to kill. . ."
He turned to watch Amber near that door as he slipped back inside the constrictions of the leather, pulling it close, letting it become a second skin. "For it not to, goes against the basic principle of your words does it not? Was he the only with his eyes wide open to see the contradiction of the situation, that this machine who was created kill, will infact not kill?
What grounds does one have to be placing hope in a faulty machinery programming

Re: Return to Darkness. [open]
The winged girl held the door open with a delicate, bandaged hand but had dared not to look over her shoulder at Akai. The logic she used was rather simple, why she would say what she did to one who had the capacity to kill. Her small wings drooped, matching her morose mood.
But we all do.
"I'm surprised you did not see my reasoning, Akai. You know me rather well..."
Her tone was not angry but not entirely warm either. Amber shook her head, her coppery tresses swaying along with another cool breath of wind.
"She was made to kill, ne? But what's not what she said she was out to do. She wanted to know general normality...so I place good faith in what she aims to do. Besides..."
She had lifted her head to look at the sky and released a gentle sigh. To be a cold killer, wanting a sense of normalcy in a place where what wasn't normal became just that. It was all too familiar to Amber.
"She's not any different from me. We're both alike in the respect that we're riddled with faults that are or could be dangerous to others. You witnessed that of me, ne?"
Amber seemed to slowly close herself off, her wings enclosed around her for a moment in a gesture of introverted comfort. Finally she spoke with a soft, lukewarm tone:
"Just...Do what you feel. I'm going to my room." And with that she would cross the threshold and the door would slowly shut behind her.

Re: Return to Darkness. [open]
It was a filthy machine, nothing more. There was genius to it, there was no soul inside of this thing. It was programmed to kill, and ultimately Akai believed with his all - that is what it will do in the end. Kill. Who's hands will that blood stain, was his friend really wanting to bare to the weight of the sins this machine would inevitably create.
Akai would never see what Amber see. . .
Even now as he vision turns upon Ramsey, watching the machine with all the contemp in the world for it, wanting nothing more than to destroy it. Akai knows what it is like to be programmed, to be a slave of anothers will and kill -- it what he runs from everyday of his life and he knows that he can't run forever - so what chance does this machine have.
"Tell me, what chance do you have!"He growled in fury at the machine that was trying to claw its way back to a stand, in a flash of eye - he was standing Ramsey again. "You have no soul, no guts at all!" The golden fury surfaced into his eyes, nearly ready to explode with the bristling power. Skin was hot to touch, boiling and seething with rage as he confronted the one thing that remined himself, and his greatest imperfection. "You're nothing but circuits and wires!!!"
Bringing down the hammer. That bandaged arm crashed into that concrete where Ramsey's fingers were with a pure fury, its crumbles underneath the force of the strike. "How can you change what you were created to do, how do you escape a fate that you are destined to fullfill!!! The hand lashed again, Akai was anger was apperent now, it was directed at, or for Ramsey -- it was something else, something more personal than just his hatred of machines. And with his best friend, gone -- who was there to help him. . .
Re: Return to Darkness. [open]
Ramsey felt the cold hardnes of the roof under hir cheek. Her fingers move across the concrete looking for anything shi can use to protect herself. She turns her head at the sound of approaching footsteps, Fear laced her mind, shi coward under the person above hir. Looking up the legs tot he face was a slow process. The voice seemed to cut the fear like a knife revealing cold anger.
"Tell me, what chance do you have! You have no soul, no guts at all! You're nothing but circuits and wires!!!"
A raging beast, fury rolling form his body. A storm begining to buzz around them, Ramsey moved back as his hand came daown barely missing hir fingers.
"How can you change what you were created to do, how do you escape a fate that you are destined to fullfill!!!
Ramsey scrambled to hir knees, a cold bitterness could almost be felt in the air. Fear replaced with anger, hir mouth curled back into a snarl.
" I have every chance you have, I am alive and plan to stay that way. I am not all wires and circuts, my heart is real, my brain is as yours. My soul is here, I have much to learn, but tonight I have felt fear and now anger. You are an uncaring pig, you want to kill me...why I did nothing but as questions. ..Do you Akai..fear the queations or just the answers."
Ramsey stood up hir wings spread out behind hir, they block out the light. Hir voice raises it calls tot he heavens.
" I am not a killer...I am not just a machine....I am a live and I want to be free of your stereotypes. "

Just when there was a change visible in the horizon, a crack in the defences, a chink in the armor -- The android opened up its stupid mouth. To think, Akai was about to lower himself into thinking that he could actually be like this machine, that it may be a kindred spirit for him, someone who really understood what he was going through -- but alas, it wasn't the same.
"Pathetic machine. . ." Sneer, it was ripe on lips that parted again as Akai went on. "You actually think that you have a soul. . .Bake me!" [Fool] He stood up to the full of his height, this thing wasn't even worthy to looked upon at this point and it was treated as so when he turned his back to it.
Footsteps trail away, but Akai's harsh words didn't cease there. "You are not alive. . .you just exsist because of anothers will to end life. It's just as I thought." Stopping at the edge of the building, eyes looking down the to the ground before. One foot drew up to, placing itself on the ledge of the roof as he leaned forward.
"You're nothing." A grunt of disappointment, a feeling of uneasyness over comes him as his resolve returns in an instant to bid to this farewell -- for now.
"Ramsey serial code three. . .you are my prey." And with that, Akai disappeared over the ledge of the building.
