Vampire Academy 2

[Callie]

The last set of students in St. Vladimir's Academy graduated eighteen years ago. A few months after they left, the school was evacuated and the students sent home. It was the worst Strigoi attack anyone had seen in centuries. No one's been back to St. Vlad's since, but this year is its grand reopening. Students are pouring back in, some new, some descendants of the last graduates. St. Vlad's is bigger than before, and guardians are also expected to train harder than ever before. The Royal Court seems to think that the Strigoi are getting stronger and stronger as the days go by, so the guardians are expected to keep up with that. The Moroi are expected to keep up with their studies, but there are many other Moroi that train their elements in secret. There are even a few Moroi teachers that help them, if you can find the right ones. However, is the new St. Vlad's as well protected as previously hoped?


The Basics

There are three types of vampires. Only two of them go to the Academy, though. The Moroi and the dhampirs.

Moroi
Moroi are born. From other Moroi. A Dhampir can't have a Moroi child. It's just not possible. Moroi can also wield magic. The four elements are controlled by them: fire, water, earth, and air. Except Moroi hardly ever use their magic anymore. Not for the offensive, at least. They can also use compulsion, but not against each other. That's why they have their guardians. Anyhow, Moroi drink blood, but they do not kill the human they drink from. They also have a really good handle on their thirst. Moroi lose energy if they go for too long without blood, and they can go out in (dim) sunlight. Too much of the stuff hurts their eyes. Recently, however, a new magical element has been found. Saint Vladimir, the first Moroi ever, had this element. Spirit (more about it in terms).

Dhampirs
Dhampirs are a mix between human and Moroi. They're what comes from a Moroi and a human reproducing. Or a Moroi and a dhampir. You'd think that that last combination would make the child 3/4ths vampire, but nope. Dhampirs have the senses of a Moroi, but they can't wield the magic. They also have the endurance and strength of a human, which comes in very handy when fighting. There are very few dhampirs these days, and most of the men become guardians, while most dhampir women are looked down upon because they usually become "blood whores". Or at least, they're assumed to be.

Strigoi
Strigoi are immortal. They also drink blood, like Moroi, except they always kill whoever they drink from. Unless they're doing torture. Strigoi don't usually stick together, because they have quick tempers and could turn on each other in a split second. Humans, dhampirs, and Moroi could all easily turn into Strigoi. One way is by force; a Strigoi biting into them to change them. The second is by choice... a dhampir or Moroi killing another being. Not a Strigoi, but either a human, dhampir, or Moroi. If you kill one of those, you become a Strigoi. Strigoi are impossibly fast, strong, and they're mindless killers. All of them. No exceptions. Strigoi also cannot stand sunlight. At all. They shrivel up and die if it touches them. There are three ways to kill them. 1) A stake through the heart. 2) Chop their head clean off. 3) Burn them.

Terms

Dhampir: see above.

Moroi: see above.

Strigoi: see above.

Guardian: a dhampir that protects a Moroi with their own life. All guardians have had the saying "They come first" drilled into their minds since starting school.

Royal: a Moroi that is one of the royal families. Anyone from one of these families can become the King of Queen of the vampire government (see below for list of royal families).

Blood Whore: a dhampir (usually woman) that lets Moroi men drink blood from her while having sex. This is considered terribly wrong in the Moroi/Dhampir world.

Stake: stakes are silver. They have magic in them, which is how they kill Strigoi. Strigoi are immortal and soulless, so they can't stand life, which is what the magic is.

Ward: wards are filled with the four elements of magic. They're meant to keep Strigoi away and out of places.

Compulsion: something only Moroi can do to make the person they're using it on do whatever the Moroi says.

Specialize: specializing is when the Moroi (dhampirs don't specialize) find the element that they can use the best out of fire, water, earth, and air. Oh, and spirit, too. Not specializing never happens.

Spirit: a widely misunderstood element. Spirit users can heal things and people, enter others' dreams, bring people back from death (which takes a hell of a lot of energy) and use compulsion extremely well. They can even use compulsion on other Moroi, because spirit users have incredibly strong compulsion powers. The one nasty side effect of using spirit is that you slowly lose your mind.

Molnija marks: the marks on the back of the neck that guardians recieve once they've graduated.

Rules

- Ask to be a Royal Moroi.

- All Royal Moroi will get guardians eventually.

- If you have a certain Moroi you would like your dhampir guardian to be assigned to, put it in other.

- Follow the regular rules. This is PG-15, please.

- You can't make a Strigoi. Well, you can, but they probably won't be used much.

- Feel free to make a teacher, or the Headmistress (it's still Kirova).

- You don't have to have been in the original Vampire Academy roleplay to join this one.

- Moroi using their elements to fight is still largely frowned upon, so if your chari does so, it should be a secret to most people.

- If you have a dhampir that's a descendant of a Royal Moroi, they can have the last name, and they'll be shown under the list of Royals (see "The Royal Families"), but they aren't really Royal. If that makes sense (they'll only be shown under the Royals if they have the Royal last name).

- Have fun!

Name: Nova Siory
Age: 18 years old
Gender: Female
Grade: Senior
Element: N/A.
Position: Student
Race: Dhampir
Picture:
Bio/Personality: Nova's a lot like her mother in many ways; she can be a bit of a tease sometimes, but not usually. She's definitely a flirt though, and has picked up some major sarcasm from her parents. Nova used to get teased at her old school in Oregon before, because apparently it was a disgrace that Adrienne ended up marrying her guardian, Trent. Hopefully, the discrimination won't be the same around here, but you never really know. Nova's also a really friendly person, and she hates it when people make fun of each other. She doesn't care who it is, as long as she doesn't hate the person, she'll defend them if they're being teased or made fun of. She's also a bit of a partier - she doesn't do drugs or anything, but she does drink.

Nova's had a pretty good life so far; parents that still love each other, a brother that she usually gets along with, a nice house, and usually completely spoiled. There's not much exciting that has happened in her life. Her grandma was mysteriously killed, and no one knows who did it. Nova's mom took it pretty hard, much to everyone's disbelief. She was allowed to stay at the Royal Court for a while before she had to move out somewhere else so the new Queen could move in. A while later, Adrienne discovered she was pregnant with Nova. A few months after that, Trent proposed, and Adrienne gladly accepted; she never thought it would last that long in the first place. And... well. End of story. Until a year later, Trent and Adrienne had another kid, a boy this time. Nova's brother, Adrian.
Tattoos, Piercings, And Other Distinguishing Marks: Shocking green eyes, like her mom's, but lighter.
Other: None.

Name: Christian Baker
Age: 18 years old
Gender: Male
Grade: Senior
Element: Fire
Position: Guardian
Race: Unknown
Picture:
Bio/Personality: Damon and Rosetta spend a lot of time out of the house, which means Christian is usually stuck at home; Jaimie doesn't trust him to be able to come along, even though Christian's always wanted to be a guardian, like her. Just maybe better, if he could. Christian's sort of... aloof, you could say. He doesn't interact with people much, and has an interesting sense of humor. He can be sort of morbid a lot of the time, and prefers being alone to anything else. He's also very sarcastic when you can get him to talk, and has a lot of smart remarks stored away. No one really knows why this is; why he's like this. Christian himself doesn't know. It's just... him.

Christian has lived with his mom, Damon, Rosetta, and Dimitri, Renee, Prudence, and Adrian all his life. Jaimie was Damon's guardian and she refused to leave Christian at some stupid adoption center sort of thing that would take care of him until he went to school. Damon and Rosetta were fine with Christian sticking around, so he did. He's still not very close to any of their kids, though. He doesn't talk to any of them very much, and if Christian really talks to anyone, it's Adrian. Like about theories. All of them wonder how Christian was even born; who his dad was. All Jaimie will reveal about him is that he was a dhampir, which makes no sense. Dhampirs can't have kids with other dhampirs. It's been decided that Jaimie has some sort of screwed-up system, though, and that's how Christian came to be. Sometimes he wonders who his dad was, and is often angry that he never got to meet him. That he never stayed with Jaimie. Christian doesn't seem to realize Jaimie never really was one for relationships in the first place, though. He also hasn't told anyone that he can control fire, even though he's a dhampir... isn't he?
Tattoos, Piercings, And Other Distinguishing Marks: Cold, gray eyes that seem to stare right through your soul.
Other: None.

Name: Prudence Ivashkov
Age: 15 years old
Gender: Female
Grade: Freshman
Element: Water
Position: Royal Moroi
Race: Moroi
Picture:
Bio/Personality: Prudence takes after her mother in a lot of ways; she looks like her, and she's not really the most talkative person. To Damon's disappointment, Prudence doesn't really use sarcasm, either. On occasion, it's been known to happen, but most of the time, Prudence is perfectly respectful and keeps her mouth shut when it needs it. Unlike Dimitri, who's always cracking jokes in that laid-back fashion of his. Prudence is a bit of a loner, but she greatly looks up to her older sister, Renee. Well, for advice and such at the very least.

Prudence has had a fairly boring life. Sometimes she wishes it would be more interesting, like in the books and movies that she loves so much, but she also realizes that while things like that may be interesting, they don't always end well; not like in movies and books. She learned that from Jaimie, who doesn't mind telling the story of how she died to anyone who asks. Luckily, it hasn't happened again. That might end badly, according to Prudence's dad, Damon. He's not sure he could bring her back to life again, and he's not sure if Rosetta knows exactly how.
Tattoos, Piercings, And Other Distinguishing Marks: Really bright blue eyes.
Other: Sometimes called Pru.

Name: Dimitri Ivashkov
Age: 18 years old
Gender: Male
Grade: Senior
Element: Earth
Position: Royal Moroi
Race: Moroi
Picture:
Bio/Personality: Unlike Prudence, Dimitri could probably be almost a clone of his dad. He's always cracking jokes, underage drinking, and all that other good stuff. Like partying. Dimitri loves parties. He's also a very laid-back type of guy; not one for fights or anything. He prefers to sit in the background and look amused, be uninvolved. He doesn't believe in getting hyped-up over very much, and he doesn't involve himself in politics of any kind. Some people may call him mysterious; Dimitri calls himself "unique. Just like everyone else."

Dimitri's had a boring life. Tons of friends, a few girlfriends, but none that got really serious. Not that he really minds; seriousness has never been his thing anyways. He can be a real romantic, if he feels like it, but that only happens on occasion. Dimitri also loves random sayings. There are a few he lives his life by and likes; "You're unique. Just like everyone else", "Live. Laugh. Love", "Common sense: it's not all that common", and a few others. He gets along well with all of his siblings, and most people in general. It's just... well, difficult to hate Dimitri.

Name: Dice Dessalines
Age: 17 years old
Gender: Female
Grade: Junior
Element: Fire
Position: Non-Royal Moroi
Race: Moroi
Picture:
Bio/Personality: Dice has never really liked rules. They're just not her thing. But whatever. She'll follow them. Usually. Well, unless there's something she really wants to do, and rules say she can't. Kind of like the time she wanted to stay in her current boyfriend's room at the Academy in France. It was against the rules, but of course she didn't listen. That's just how Dice is. Sarcastic, outgoing, rebellious, determined, and maybe just a little bit of a klepto.

Dice has a twin sister out there somewhere. Sierra. Dice has met her a few times, but she doesn't particularly like her. Sierra's with their parents; Dice got away as soon as she could. Her parents only wanted one kid in the first place, and Sierra's their little angel. So Dice sticks to herself and leaves her family alone. There's not really much to say about her life, and she doesn't normally share about herself. Says it's trivial. She'd rather talk about music or... well, anything, really. Just not her family.
Tattoos, Piercings, And Other Distinguishing Marks: Lip studs (as shown; there's one on each side).
Other: Her last name is pronounced "day-suh-leans". Occasionally called DD. Or Double D, if she's being checked out (calling her that is not recommended, if you like your health). She can also speak fluent French.

Name: "Shadow" Schuyler
Age: 17 years old
Gender: Male
Grade: Junior
Element: N/A
Position: Guardian
Race: Dhampir
Picture:
Bio/Personality: Schuyler has a very... bipolar sort of personality, you could say. Sometimes he's really outgoing, and sometimes he wants to wring the throat of anyone that comes near him. According to some of the people at St. Vlad's, he's the most interesting thing about this place, but that's mostly because no one knows him. They might think so, but, chances are, they're wrong. Schuyler doesn't share much, and when he does, there's a very good chance he lied. See, Schuyler's a compulsive liar. He can't even help it. He lies to get out of things, lies to get into things, lies for the hell of it. For the adrenaline. The thrill of the possibility of getting caught. You could say he's a bit of daredevil.

Schuyler, as previously said, is interesting. Mysterious. Unknown. Fresh meat. People don't know him, and he most certainly hasn't revealed anything. Honestly, Schuyler never met his parents. As soon as he was born, he was handed to a set of foster parents, who called him Mitchell for a while, then another set when he got to be too much for the first pair of foster parents, and they called him Terrance. Then he got too many detentions and was just too much of a troublemaker for that set, so he was sent to yet another set of foster parents. Vlad, Yuri, Isaac, Joseph, Will, Fredrick... honestly, Schuyler's lost track of his real name. With the latest set of foster parents, he set his school on fire, so they carted him off to boot camp for a while, where he started going simply by Shadow or Schuyler. After that, he didn't even go back to them. He headed straight for Montana, and he got into St. Vlad's. Of course, this is all very hush-hush. In other words, no one knows about it.
Tattoos, Piercings, And Other Distinguishing Marks: None.
Other: Some people call him Shadow, some people call him Schuyler. He prefers Schuyler, but he'll answer to Shadow as well.

Name: Noelle Montgomery
Age: 17 years old
Gender: Female
Grade: Junior
Element: N/A
Position: Guardian
Race: Dhampir
Picture:
Bio/Personality: Noelle doesn't really fit a stereotype. That's probably the first thing you should know about her. She fights, and she does it well, but she's also a bit of a bookworm. She likes a few video games, and she prefers horror/mystery novels over romance stories, while going around praising Stephen King as the best author ever. Noelle has never played World of Warcraft, but she's wasted more than a few hours on RuneScape when she should've been learning how to stake a Strigoi. Honestly, Noelle's something like a badass nerd.

Noelle's mom didn't want a kid. She really didn't. She preferred to sleep around with half the town, and that was how Noelle came to be dumped on the doorstep of one of those places that takes care of the kids the blood whores are too busy to keep. She was completely used to taking care of herself and minding her own business before she met this guy. But this isn't the typical story - it's nothing like that. His name is Adrian. If you knew him, you would know right away it's not the typical romance story. Especially since when Noelle first met him, it was the morning after Adrian had slept with some other girl in the orphanage. They talked for a bit over breakfast, and then Adrian tried to make a move on Noelle the next time he saw her. Noelle wasn't having any of it, and she let him know she just wanted to be just friends. She won't admit it, but Noelle has never had a relationship, and she's not sure she wants one. However, Adrian reluctantly agreed that they could just be friends, and he would try not to make any moves on her... but he couldn't promise anything. And that was sort of how the friendship came to be. It's been a few months since Noelle really heard from him, though, because they don't live very close to each other, and she knows Adrian is probably busy sleeping with half the town. So she keeps to herself, reading any book that looks good that she can get her hands on.
Tattoos, Piercings, And Other Distinguishing Marks: Her hair's pretty red, so it's kind of distinguishing.
Other: She secretly doesn't believe in love.

Bio/Personality: Sin's a ladies' man, pure and simple. He may not have the attraction power that some people around here do, but Sin's had practice. He's charismatic and charming, and with that, he can make many women like putty in his hands. The real Sin is widely unknown - most people take no time to look beyond the dickhead surface. Sin wasn't always like this, though, but that's another story for another day, and one he doesn't like to bring up.

He doesn't really talk about his past much.

And he's pretty thoughtful most of the time, so he'll apologize if he thinks he's offended someone. Kyle's into pranks, jokes, sarcasm, and the like.

It's just as likely that while she's talking animatedly to you, she's thinking about the most interesting way to kill you. You could say she's a little messed-up in the head. Actually, Taryn just gets bored easily, and death scenes have always fascinated her. She likes to try and recreate them with Strigoi. Not that it usually works.

Bio/Personality: Alexis is the daughter of Erik Drozdov and Elysia Badica, which makes her a sort of double Royal. She has a lot of friends but her family life's a wreck. Erik's never wanted anything to do with her, and her half sister, Regan, hates her guts. She's really close to her mom and Zaiden, who basically raised her.

Alexis is the sort of person who'll start a conversation or introduce herself, but doesn't usually go out of her way to do so, unless she lets her curiosity get in the way as usual. She tries to not hurt peoples' feelings, including Regan's, though that doesn't usually end well. Regan's had it out for her since they were old enough to get the social difference between being a Moroi and a Dhamphir. Alexis wants them to be friends again, like they used to, but it probably won't be happening anytime soon.

As far as elements go, Alexis knows she's a Spirit User, but that's basically it. She's never told anyone so nobody's known to teach her. Surprisingly, they don't seem to notice how easy it is for her to make friends with the other Royals.

Honestly, she knew her parents just tried harder to make Alexis feel like she was a part of their little family, but to Regan it backfired. She got into smoking, alcohol, drugs, you name it. Whatever she could get her hands on. Regan managed to get her parents brought to the Academy quite a few times, making her promise to start working on her grades, but as soon as they'd leave, she'd go back to her usual habits. According to her, you don't need anyone in life, so she doesn't try to make friends.

Age: 16
Gender: Female

Element: N/A
Position: Royal "Moroi"
Race: Strigoi-viu
Picture:
Bio/Personality: Renee's the quiet one, so to speak - no one has ever heard her talk. Ever. She's never made a sound, never uttered her first word yet. She's incredibly shy, as well. She can be a bit...weird, and strange, but that's because she was never fully developed.

Renee's lucky to be alive, as she wasn't growing properly while in the womb. Her mother, Rosetta, became really ill because of it, and gave birth to her prematurely. Around...5 months before her due date. And because Renee was so small and fragile, she was stillborn. The miracle is, however, that no one knows how she woke up in the first place - although, Rosetta knows clearly.

Speaking of Rosetta, Renee has some sort of bond to her. She can read her mother's thoughts, and can even sink into her mind occaisonally. Sometimes this can be to her advantage, sometimes...let's just say there's a new way of "walking in on your parents" now. It's disgusting.

Another thing about Renee is, although she is smart (she skipped 2 grades), she hasn't specialized yet. And that scares the living crap out of her.

She's the only one of Rosetta's children to encounter Serena and Michel.

OOC: How are we terrible?

If you have a specific request for dorms, let me know, and I'll try to fulfill it, by the way.

... Aaaand I got impatient, so here we go. First day at St. Vlad's; they've been going to some other Academy elsewhere until now.

Christian

I took a breath as I walked into the the huge room with Mom. Prudence lagged behind us, and God only knew where Dimitri and Renee were. "St. Vladimir's. School with the worst security in the history of school. No lack of drama, though, that's for sure," Mom said wryly, looking at me. "You'll be alright?"
I nodded and took a seat at one of the tables; Mom went up to the front table and struck up a conversation with one of the teachers.

Dimitri

I lagged around outside, making conversation with whoever walked through the gates, pretty much. I was feeling chatty today, and of course, Prudence wasn't, Mom and Dad were with her... I think... and I had no idea where Renee was. Besides, it was better to socialize with your peers, right?

I looked around as I headed through the gates. Gorgeous. The scenery around here was amazing. Absolutely amazing. I walked inside for the dining area and noticed it was beautiful, too. Well, they really outdid themselves, didn't they? I sat down at one of the emptier tables. Shortly after I sat, another girl (Nova) joined me, and started talking animatedly about... well, something.

Schuyler

I peered out from the window of the room I was in. Well. Good thing I'd beaten the crowd. I didn't feel like talking at the moment anyways. I shut the window and sat down on my bed. All I wanted to do right now was sleep. Sleep and sleep and sleep. Maybe for a few days.

[Ashley (;]

Alexis

I stepped out of the car, going to the trunk for my bags. "I really don't get why we had to switch schools anyways," I said quietly to Mom and Dad. "All my friends went there."
"Oh, shut up. You'll make new friends in minutes anyways," Regan complained.

Adrian

"Want some help with that?" I asked a blonde (Alexis) as I walked past the school parking lot.
"I think I'm good," she told me with a slight laugh. Okay, so maybe the girls weren't as gullible here. Fun.

[Callie]

Zaiden

"Guys, try to get along for five minutes," I said with a slight sigh, ignoring the boy that had come over. Boys. Near my daughters. Already. Ugh. Great.

Christian

Mom finished talking to the teacher and walked back over to me, but I put my head down on the table and pretended I was sleeping. I wanted nothing more than to escape from this place before the people started crowding in. By the way Mom was jerking around ever-so-slightly, I could tell she probably felt the same way.

Nova

I stopped rambling about the school for a moment and looked to the girl next to me. Why did I have the feeling if Adrian saw her, she'd be added to the list of the many he'd be trying to get his hands on? I swear, the boy collected women like some people collected rocks. "So what's your name?" I asked her.
She smiled politely. "I'm Dice."
Dice. Unique. "I'm Nova. It's nice to meetcha, Dice." I grinned and shook her hand. She gave me a small smile in return, then propped her head up with her hands on the table, shutting her eyes. Guess I wasn't conversing anymore for the time being.

[Ashley (;]

Trent

I walked inside the school with Adr- Well, he was behind me... "Adrian!" I called across the room before I realized that kid wasn't Adrian. Yet he somehow still resembled me just as much. I would've paid more attention to him, if it weren't for the girl even more familiar next to him. "Jaimie?" I asked incredulously.

Regan

"Alright, I'm going to find my room. Bye," I told my parents, giving them each a quick hug before walking off. Long goodbyes sucked anyways.

Alexis

"Wow, Trent and Jaimie?" Mom mentioned aloud after hugging Regan back. I walked over to a table with two other girls (Dice and Nova) sitting at it. "Hey, I'm Alexis."

[Callie]

Christian

Mom turned around to look at the crazy that had called me Adrian, and her eyes went wide. Well, whatever. "I'm gonna show myself around, ok, Mom?" I mumbled, getting up and starting to head out of the room.
She grabbed my arm. "At least go try to socialize?" she pleaded.
"Yeah, sure."
She started walking over to the one guy, and I managed to slip past her, undetected, and outside. I had no idea where I was going, but I was gonna find somewhere remotely interesting.

Jaimie

I walked over to Trent, realizing that my heart felt like it was about to beat out of my chest. I ignored it. "Trent... long time, no see," I said quietly, smiling slightly at him.

Nova

"Hey," I said with a slight smile. "I'm Nova, and this is Dice," I informed her. Dice just nodded slightly.

[Louise]

Renee

I frowned slightly as I walked into the school, my mum close behind. She was always keeping a watchful eye on me, always. It was perhaps the most annoying thing about her-- no, scratch that, her perverted thoughts about Dad was. I shuddered at the thought, and Mum frowned slightly. "Are you cold, 'Nee?" she asked, and I rolled my eyes. I would have said some kind of snappy remark, but I couldn't. I never could.
It was to my relief that Anita found me, and we walked off. I waved goodbye to Mum as I turned the corner. I could see out of the corner of my eye her head shaking in disaproval.

Anita

I laughed when we were a considerable distance away. "Glad I saved you?" I joked. Renee nodded, smiling slightly. Renee was my best friend, mainly because she didn't care that I was a reject. I didn't know who my mum was, so I was stuck living with my douche of a father, my step-mother and brother. I didn't like any of them, so I considered Renee's family my family. Her mother was pretty accepting of me anyway, and treated me like her own. So I spent more time over there than at home itself.

Cross

I slowly walked down the corridor, Saviour lagging behind me. Unlike everyone else, our parents weren't with us. They weren't allowed in the school...stupid wards. I was actually surprised we got through them - we were always reminded that it was possible we wouldn't get in, because, apparently, we weren't "Moroi" or some shit like that.
I turned the corner, and immediately saw Renee Ivashkov and some random. I stopped in my tracks and nudged Saviour. "Look who's here," I remarked, smirking slightly.

Saviour

I looked up from the floor and grinned when I saw her. "Oh, looky here," I mocked, "it's our favourite little feeder. And she's got a friend!" I smirked as Renee tensed. "How's your bites?"
"Who the fuck are you?" her companion asked, scowling at Cross and I.
I rolled my eyes. "Old friends of Renee, dear," I answered simply, before walking past them. Cross followed suit.

[Ashley (;]

Alexis

"Nice to meet you, too," I told the girl with a smile. I couldn't really decide if I wanted to sit down and talk to them or go exploring around this place. Something here had to be interesting.

Adrian

I walked over to where Nova was sitting, taking a seat next to her and the redhead who happened to be way more sexy close up.

Trent

I wrapped my arms around her tightly before my brain even had time to react. "God, I missed you."

[Callie]

OOC: But... but... I'll give you a recap.

Jaimie

I hugged him back for a moment before I broke away. "I missed you, too. I guess. So... which one's yours?" I asked him with a playful smirk, looking around.

Nova

"You too. Hey," I said, glancing over to Adrian. "This is my brother, Adrian," I told them.
"I... don't feel like introducing myself again," Dice said, leaning back in her chair and smiling slightly.
"This is Dice," I told him, then gestured to Alexis. "And that's Alexis."

Christian

After a while of walking around the property, I found a somewhat big building in the backyard, and walked inside. The church. Huh. I scanned the room with its high ceilings and pews and such, and eventually spotted some stairs off in the corner. I climbed up them and found myself in an attic-like storage place with a window and a ton of boxes scattered everywhere. Cozy. I sat down right next to the window and looked out it. It was frosty, which was sort of weird; it wasn't that cold out. Then again, it was pretty cold in here. I got up and rummaged through one of the boxes, finding a few candles. I set them near me and lit them with a match from my pocket.

[Ashley (;]

Trent

"You guess? Wow, Baker, I'm hurt. Two, actually. Nova and Adrian." I pointed them out at the table with two other girls. Not surprising, with Adrian being there. He was worse than I'd been in highschool. "What about you? Damon and Rosetta dropping their kids off?"

Adrian

"Dice, huh? That's a pretty unusual name," I told her with a grin. Alexis rolled her eyes slightly, walking off.

Regan

I stopped at my room and pushed the door open. Homey.

[Callie]

Jaimie

"Well, that, I'm teaching Advanced Guardian Combat Techniques this year, and I'm dropping my son off. He's... well, apparently he didn't listen and go to chat. He's around here somewhere, though," I answered, sighing slightly when I couldn't see Christian anywhere.

Nova

I watched as Alexis walked off and decided I might talk to her later or something, as well as Dice. I had the feeling she'd be busy with Adrian for a while. Well, until he got bored of her and went off to find some other girl. Since, even if the girl was like a female Adrian, he got bored with them before they got bored of him. So I got up and waved a bit to the both of them. "I'll talk to you later," I said before walking away from them and trying to decide where to go next.

Dice

I nodded and smirked slightly. "Yup. So... Adrian, huh? Nice to meet you." Well, this could be interesting. Kidding. I'd just have to get away from here soon. Manwhores weren't my thing, and I could already tell that this Adrian kid was. Pity, too. He was hot.

Christian

There wasn't anything interesting in the boxes other than some other spare bibles, more candles, and some songbooks and such, so I left them alone, going back over to window and holding my hands by the candles. Might as well enjoy my being alone before Mom came and found me.

[Ashley (;]

Trent

"Your son?" I asked incredulously. Well, so much for forgetting her personal life to be a guardian... It wasn't like it was a big deal. Dhamphirs were supposed to have more Dhamphir. So why did it make me so jealous?

Adrian

"Definitely a pleasure to meet you," I replied, glancing off to see where Nova was off to. Dad told me I'd had to watch out for her and everything, though I was pretty sure she knew how to hold her own.

Alexis

I walked along the pathway until I came across some sort of old church or something. Huh. Maybe it was haunted. I stepped inside, looking around. It looked so... empty.

[Louise]

Anita

Once the two mysterious individuals left, I turned to Renee. "Ok, who are they?" I asked, but all she did was shake her head. I sighed. "Alright, I might go get comfy in my dorm or some shit, kay 'Nee?" I told her, giving her a small hug then leaving.

Cross

"You are an idiot."
Saviour turned to face me, a menacing snarl on her face. "Am not."
"Are too," I retorted, rolling my eyes. "You were openly talking about what happened a couple of months ago. Someone could have seen, or heard."
"And what? We get a blackmail note saying I know what you did last Summer or something?" he laughed coldly. "You worry too much."
I resisted the urge to roll my eyes again.

[Callie]

Schuyler

I decided to go downstairs and maybe say hi to some people, make small talk, whatever. I walked out of the room and shut the door behind me, keeping my eyes trained on the floor as I did so.

[Louise]

Renee

I decided that I should do something other than look like a lost sheep, so I began to walk around. I looked around and took my surroundings in; Mum and Dad had described this place to me, it was amazing how much detail they remembered.
After a while, my ignorance caused me to walk into some guy (Schuyler) and fall flat on my ass. Great, just my luck.

[Callie]

Jaimie

"Well, ours, if you wanna be technical," I mumbled, looking down at the ground.

Dice

"I'm sure," I said with a slight smirk, getting up. "Well, if you'll excuse me, I have to go and check out my dorm, so maybe I'll see you around."

Christian

I tensed when I heard someone below me. What were they doing here? Well... maybe they wouldn't come up. That would be good.

Schuyler

Someone walked into me and fell over. I looked up and frowned slightly. "Uhm... sorry," I mumbled, holding my hand out to the girl to help her.

[Louise]

Renee

I frowned and took the guys hand, then steadying myself up. Curse Mum and her clumsiness, it was genetic.

[Callie]

Schuyler

I blinked. Man, she was pretty. Like... really pretty. I shook my head slightly. Snap out of it, Shadow. You're not here for that. "You alright?" I asked quietly.

[Louise]

Renee

I nodded.

[Callie]

Schuyler

I nodded back awkwardly, running a hand through my hair. "Well, I'll see you around."

[Louise]

Renee

I pursed my lips and shrugged, then walked off. I decided to try and find my dorm.

[Callie]

Schuyler

I ended up in a sort of dining area, where a bunch of students and adults were gathered. People talking, laughing, yellling and such. Not really my thing. Not at the moment, at least.

[Louise]

Renee

After walking for a while, I came across Dimitri. I waved at him and walked over.

[Ashley (;]

Trent

I felt my eyes widen, "But... that's not even possible... We're both Dhamphir."

Adrian

"You can count on that," I called after her. Well... That was fast. The blonde chick was gone, too... Maybe Nova had more hot friends already...

Alexis

I walked along the empty pews, tracing the wood with my fingertips. ['i]Why were there stairs there?[/i]' I wondered to myself as I glanced across the room.

[Callie]

Dimitri

"Hey Nee. How's it going?" I asked, leaning against the outside wall of the Academy as more people headed inside.

[Louise]

Renee

I shrugged. I would've said something like It's alright, but I couldn't do that, could I?

[Callie]

Dimitri

"I take that for a decent."

Jaimie

"Apparently I have some sort of defect. So Christian's a dhampir too," I answered.

Nova

I walked over to Dad, who was talking with some other girl. My jaw dropped as I got closer and realized who it was. "You're Jaimie Baker," I said, pointing out the obvious. She was sort of famous in the dhampir world for being an amazing guardian. Dad knew her?

Christian

I couldn't hear anymore, and I stopped breathing momentarily to try and listen harder.
