[Lunar Templar]

Sierra stopped 'radiating' her energy's and as they receded the light started to flow back into the room, and as she the glow to her eyes becoming far less noticeable, she did not however re-establish her illusion just yet. Didn't really want to, and she really didn't see the need to at a school like this, but she listened to Bill's explanation of 'what was wrong with her', it didn't really surprise her the problem was the human and demon in her not getting along, still, "Nothing to have been done other wise, by the time I started really using my powers, I was fighting off demons. It was ether deal with the pain and push through, or die."

Something then popped in to her head "If the two sides don't play well, then why can I weave enchantments for hours upon hours on end with no ill side effects, ya know, barring an aether back fire..." she asked, rubbing her still toweled arm

Alicia

"What the matter Pyro? Afraid of the dark .."

Alicia replied with a laugh, and a middle finger balancing a fireball. "Kiss my ass hellspawn...don't make me get the holy water." As the room go brighter again, she snuffed the fireball and stretched. "Well since there seems to be people moving about know, I'm gonna hit the campus gym...it's better than nothing." She hated the place since it was usually filled with frat boys working on their uselessly showy bulk; but after what'd just happened, it was probably better not to leave the grounds just yet.

Isaac

"People act quickly when they see that is their soul being drawn out of their body before their eyes."

"Ah, so a threat then." He replied, stating to rummage around the kitchen for a drink. "Assuming they got over the shock of it all, I think you'd've gotten on well with my minders...Father had a tendency to hire 'hard' men for the job; you know ex-SAS or Spetsnaz types." Ending his fruitless search for what he wanted, he sighed and looked over at Jarrah. "Say big guy...since Oz isn't too far away, you ever tried any Japanese beer? Is it worth drinking?"

 

[figment of mind]

"Um ... what light?"

"Like Bill said, your eyes seemed to radiate light while everything else darkened." Mirabelle said quickly, taking note of the fact that she didn't know that her eyes did so and as such, must have had no effect on her vision. She was a bit disappointed that there was no noticable effect on her vision...but she didn't mind that if it meant that her eyes didn't hurt like the rest of her apparently did.

She stood back and sat down, getting out of Bill and Sierra's way but not wanting to leave just yet. Truth be told, she was interested in what else could be learned from these two, and if they could find a way to stop Sierra from feeling pain in the wake of using her abilities.

 

[Knife-28]

Jarrah smirked at Isaac's antics and the Naga-Frat Boy's obvious discomfort, even as he slithered off. He half listened to the shapeshifter's reminiscing as he mainly focussed on snagging the biggest slices of pizza, at least until Isaac adressed him directly.

"You ever tried any Japanese beer? Is it worth drinking?"

"You know, I can't say that I have." Jarrah answered through a mouthful of pizza. "Might have to hit up some of the local bars some time and find out."

 

[Athol]

Alicia

She was half way out the door, when she stopped. No, this is going to eat at me unless I try again... With a bit of a sigh, she stepped back into the room and headed for Ohka's door. As she knocked on the door, she grimaced a bit when she saw the pink staining in the bandages, where blood was soaking through.

Not getting a response from her knocks, Alicia slowly opened the door, and spied a figure curled up on the bed. At first she thought Ohka was asleep, until she saw a red-rimmed eye peeking out from behind her dishevelled hair. "Hi...I'm sorry for snapping at you. I know we haven't known each other that long, but I know you wouldn't do those things you said..."


Isaac

"You know, I can't say that I have. Might have to hit up some of the local bars some time and find out."

"Now THAT sounds like a capital idea." Isaac replied with smile. "You know what makes a pub crawl better? When you have a smart, young, attractive, and obscenely wealthy fellow to finance it all..." Putting on his best 'Cheshire Cat' grin, he went over and put an arm around the titanic Aussie. "Fortunately for you, I happen to know just such a guy."

 

[mcpop9]

Ohka looked up at her. it was clear that she had been cry for a while, and would be now if she had any tears left. "I hate it... it's so unfair..." she said looking up at Alicia. "I miss her already..." she said, curling up tighter as if to make room for the other girl to sit. "i accept your apology... it just hurts so much... i'm sorry..."
[hr]

Birres looked at her and shrugged. "You don't need dark mana to weave enchantments. think of your human side as a mana filter. normal mana used for general magics, ones that can be learned, are accepted through easily. But when you draw up the dark mana, it's like trying to fit a square into a circle hole. sure you get it through, but not without a lot of pushing, shoving and damage along the way. We might be able to create a work around, but i'll need time to analyze and compose something." the demon said to Sierra rather relaxed.

[hr]

Rose shrugged as she watched the antics. "I haven't drank before. maybe getting something to drink in terms of alcohol would be nice." The shinigami agreed with her cold voice and took a step or two towards the Aussie mountain and shapeshifter.

 

[Lunar Templar]

'So my Enchantments are from my human side then, explains why their more useful over all' Sierra thought as Bill explained the differences in how her body handles the different energy's. "So when do we get started?" Sierra, while hesitant to trust this, or any demon, wasn't about to turn down help if it meant 'fixing' her problem.

 

[Outcast107]

Tomas was listening to the others talk as he ate another slice of pizza. Not sure if going out and drinking would be the wises of ideas. "Are we sure that is the best course of action? Going out to a bar to get drunk does not sound very...logical at the moment."

Wondering if they all forgetten about what happen not to long ago. Though he did guess they have to find some way to loosen up, but something more fitting then going to a bar.

 

[Athol]

Alicia

"I hate it... it's so unfair... I miss her already... I accept your apology... it just hurts so much... I'm sorry..."

"I know it's unfair." Alicia replied, sitting beside Ohka. "And you've got nothing to really apologize for, we all say...or do...things we don't necessarily mean when we're angry." Reaching over, she wrapped her bandaged are around Ohka's shoulders.

[hr]

Isaac

"I haven't drank before. Maybe getting something to drink in terms of alcohol would be nice."

"Well that's the spirits!" Isaac said, beaming at Rose. He was about to turn his attention to Jack and Tomas, but Tomas beat him to the punch.

"Are we sure that is the best course of action? Going out to a bar to get drunk does not sound very...logical at the moment."

His grin dropped, and he gave the half-breed a sour look. "Well aren't you the rain cloud on a sunny day..." He said. "But to answer your question...I have no bloody idea, but probably not; and as for logic? We're going to raise a pint or three to the departed. A tradition I picked up from a couple of Scottish friends back home. Don't get all weepy and morose when somebody dies...get your mates, hit up a pub, and drink to the memories of the departed if you know'em, and to their honour if you don't."

 

[Knife-28]

"Well that's the spirits!" Jarrah chuckled (or at least, did the closest thing to a chuckle with a mouthful of pizza) at Isaac's pun, intentional or not. Like the shapeshifter he too was about to ask if Tomas and Jack were game, only for the half-dragon to voice his view on the subject.
"Going out to a bar to get drunk does not sound very...logical at the moment."

And for Isaac to voice his rebuttal and when the shapeshifter had finished Jarrah gave his own. "Nothing about this day has been very 'logical' and fuck honestly I don't want to sit around here all day eating pizza and feeling sad."

 

[Outcast107]

Hearing both of them as he close his eyes and think it over. Perhaps they all needed to release some stress as he sigh and open up his eyes once more. "Very well. I'm sure someone needs to keep a eye on all of you anyways." Giving in to the idea of going out. Not sure if he will drink all that much but doing something instead of staying here all day and night does sound more fun.

"Anyone know where to go to for our drinks?" He ask as hope it isn't to far from the school. He rather not have to carry anyone home today if they drink themselves out cold.

 

[mcpop9]

Birres shrugged. "I'll need to formulate some ideas because of right now, i only know what the issue is. i'll need to figure out how to reroute your power. in the meantime, please refrain from using your dark energy." he said then looked around at the rest of the girls that were in sight. "If you are hungry, i'm more than willing to treat you girls to somewhere. I know it's hard to trust demons, but i haven't actually been in hell for quite some time. to damn hectic and prone to betrayal and death down there." he said, relaxing into the couch.

[hr]
Ohka leaned against Alicia, wanting to stay close to someone. "I don't know what to do now... i'm afraid those i'll get close to will die..." the girl said to alicia. "how do you cheer up? i don't want to stay like this..." she said, head still burried in her knees. She wasn't sparking from her powers, which was a good thing, right?

[hr]

Rose looked around. "Well, i don't know where we could go drink. i am not in the know of these sorts of things." she said, clearly for drinking. "Maybe i could use my soul vision to find a local bar. i'm sure if i searched for messed up souls i could locate one." rose suggested. "Give me a minute, i shall go get dressed properly." she said to them, before walking into the room, leaving the door open but changing out of site so she could hear them.

 

[Athol]

Alicia

"I don't know what to do now... I?m afraid those I'll get close to will die... How do you cheer up? I don't want to stay like this..."

Alicia squeezed Ohka tight when she leant against her. "If you spend all your time worrying about what might happen, you'll drive yourself crazy and end up just being alone." Almost without realizing it she cracked a smile. ?And what's the point in going crazy if you can't have someone to share it with?" She said, ruffling Ohka's hair with her bandaged hand. "As for how I deal with shit like this? I usually go beat the hell out of some poor defenceless punching bags...or know-it-all beginners if I was at my dad's gym."

[hr]

Isaac

"Nothing about this day has been very 'logical' and fuck honestly I don't want to sit around here all day eating pizza and feeling sad."

"You know Jarrah; the longer I know you, the more I like you." Issac grinned. "As to where, let me worry about the details." Releasing Jarrah, he dug his cell [http://cdn2.insidermonkey.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2013/10/Nokia8800_cybula00.jpg] out of a pocket, and made a couple of calls. The first was a fairly long one delivered in rapid fire Farsi, and the second was shorter but delivered in halting Japanese. "Okay, we'll have essential supplies in 10 and a ride in 15...I you want to change, go for it, but I wasn't thinking of going anywhere that has a 'dress code'."

 

[figment of mind]

Thankfully Sierra and Birres weren't getting too technical with their discussion of differing energies, letting Mirabelle follow along and understand as well. It was interesting to hear how the two energies worked within a human body and was a good thing to learn, even if it was non-applicable to her.

They seemed to have finished up soon enough, and with that, she was prepared to go back into her room...until Birres offered to take them out for food. She really had to wonder if this was going to be a regular thing, but if they wanted to pay and have her eat then she wouldn't stop them.

"Well...i don't need to eat so you don't need to get me anything but if the others are going, i'll go." She said, looking at Birres and Sierra and awaiting her answer.

 

[Lunar Templar]

Sierra snickered a bit when Birres said the demon realm was full of back stabbing, both literal and figurative. "Way to instill trust in those 'friends' I supposedly have down there" She snarked, she didn't trust them regardless but his comment certainly didn't didn't help "Anyway, if the others are up for it, sure"

 

[Sithmorack]

Jack simply stood there during the duration of the conversation before Isaac said

"Okay, we'll have essential supplies in 10 and a ride in 15...I you want to change, go for it, but I wasn't thinking of going anywhere that has a 'dress code'."

Right after he spoke Jack replied "Well since you have it all planned out i'll just sit on this chair and wait." There was a soft thud as he landed on said chair and got comfortable. "Just let me know when we're leaving."

 

[Knife-28]

"You know Jarrah; the longer I know you, the more I like you."

"The wonders of friendship at work." Jarrah said, giving Isaac a clap on the shoulder. The Yowie snagged the last slice of pizza as Isaac talked away on his mobile and nodded at the mention of getting changed. "'s a good idea actually, gimme a mo."

Jarrah walked into his room, and emerged a few minutes later wearing a white shirt, denim jacket and khaki cargo pants. "So, what exactly do you mean by 'essential supplies'?" He asked Isaac.

 

[Outcast107]

"I am fine as I am." Tomas noted as he was still sitting down. "And I would also like to know what 'supplies' you are talking about..and where did you plan on taking us?" Hoping it wasn't going to be a big thing that Isaac plan out as Tomas never like large crowds.

 

[figment of mind]

"Anyway, if the others are up for it, sure"

"Alright, so the two of us are basically confirmed to be going...i will go and see if Alicia wants to go out or if Ohka is in any condition to..."

Mirabelle squeezed past the two of them and headed for Ohka's room. She hoped that asking Ohka if she wanted to come along wasn't too rude, especially since she had just lost someone close to her. Knocking on it a couple of times, she opened it up a little and said, "Um...i just wanted to ask, Birres is inviting us out for food. I think he's trying to endear himself to us, or rather Sierra, since he is a demon and all. Anyways, i wanted to ask if you two wanted to come?"

"Um...i just wanted to ask, Birres is inviting us out for food. I think he's trying to endear himself to us, or rather Sierra, since he is a demon and all. Anyways, I wanted to ask if you two wanted to come?"

Alicia looked up as Mira knocked. "So we trusting him then?" She asked, before turning her attention back to Ohka. "So, you up for that, or would you rather stay here?"

[hr]

Isaac

Chuckling a bit as Jack dropped into a chair, he then switched to an overly dramatic 'hurt' look when Tomas and Jarrah both questioned him on the 'supplies' *Humph* "It's like you don't even trust me or something." He pouted. "And as for where we're going...don't have a bloody clue yet." The last bit was said with a mischievous smile.

Moments later his phone started ringing. "And that would be the 'supplies'." He said as he answered the call. Another brief conversation in Farsi resulted in a knocking at the door. Isaac opened the door to reveal a serious looking Japanese fellow in a suit, with a briefcase cuffed to his wrist, flanked by two equally serious looking Arab men in suits; each one with a Saudi Arabian flag pin on their lapels, and a suspect bulge under their left arms.

A hushed conversation in Japanese resulted in the case carrier producing a small tablet from his coat that Isaac signed, before one of the guard produced a key and unlocked the cuff, so the carrier could hand the case to Isaac. Thanking the men in their respective languages, he then closed the door and headed into the living room. Placing the case on the coffee table, he entered a combination into the latches and opened the case.

Inside were crisp American $100 bills in $10,000 stacks. Pulling out eight stacks of bills, he tossed two to Jack, Jarrah, and Tomas, setting the final stacks aside for Rose. "How's that for 'supplies'...and there's always more where that came from."
