Oh Yes, We are Gifted.

Desra flinched and took a frightned step back as if she had been punched, swiftly taking her aura with her. "Just trying to help..." she murmured quietly, although too quiet for most people to hear, as she took her gloves. Good, boxing. She had taken karate before she came here, so she was pretty used to sparring. She didnt understand. Most people didnt notice the aura, they just noticed that they get very calm. Maybe this teacher could see auras, she didnt know. Then an unexpected voice sounded in her head. It said she was new. She hadnt meant to invade the assistant's mind, it had just sorta happened. That happens sometimes, when she gets annoyed, or confused, or frightned. It just kinda slips. It was really the only flaw in her powers, and she hoped by the end of this year she could fix it. Then she realized what the teacher had said. She had said, or more acuratly would be thought, that she was new. She wasnt new! This was her second year. Even if she had forgotten almost everything about the school, inccluding classrooms, and with the classrooms, teachers. Of course she remembered some, but she tried to forget the strict ones. Apparently, and somewhat unfortunatly in this matter, she had done what she had tried to do. Next summer, she would remember not to do it. Which was slightly confusing, but then she snapped out of her confused daydream, and payed attention. It was probably a very bad idea to not pay attention in this class.

Sparky stood in line, and took his gloves. He hated getting scolded like that. He smacked at a stupid flame that appeared on his shoulder, setting it out, and tried to pay attention. This proved to be a problem as an angry flame kept appearing on his shoulder. The thing was, it was angry, but he didn't know why. He put his hand over the flame, smothering it. But this just resulted in his glove (not the boxing one) caught on fire. Crap. He pulled off the glove and went about putting it out, setting the boxing gloves on the ground next to him. But, he still payed attention. He was kind of used to putting out fires and paying attention at the same time.

ooc: I love how I'm not replying yet...>.>
bic: Talon returned to his room with Tai following, and he got his schedual, it read:

1st:
Gym

2nd:
Art

3rd:
Elementals

4th:
English

5th:
Flying 101

"Well, at least it's a decent schedual this year..." Talon told, then he looked at Tai, who was reading his.

"I got really complicated ones..." then he read it out loud.

"1st:
Gym

2nd:
English

3rd:
Math

4th:
Art

5th:
Flying 101"

I only get two good classes...and they are all last..." He complained.

"Well, we'd better hurry up or we'll be late to our first class!"

To that, Talon and Taikato each ran off to their first period class, hoping to not be late.

Talon got to his class running and out of breath, "I am terribly sorry for being late..." Talon told.

______________________________________________

Taikato ran off to his class too, he was slightly behind Talon, and he finally caught up to him. "I'm sorry for being late..." He told, also out of breath.

((anyone else in first period art?))

Mayoi woke from her recent trance at just the right time. She moved around the room to check one last time. The mats were set up for calm meditation and the staffs and pads were set up for the ones who can't sit still. She resumed her position at the head of the room and waited in silence.

Jerry looked around the cafeteria. It was nearly empty now. He snapped his fingers and the broom and the mop jumped to attention. He jerked his thumb at the empty end of the cafeteria and the broom and dustpan raced off to sweep it up. Then he turned to the mop and instructed it to clean up any non-broomable messes. Then it went off with the bucket. He held the rag in his hand and headed for a nearby empty table, and started to clean it up.

[Icefire]

"Well, atleast we're not the only late ones..." Desra murmured to Sparky quietly, so the teacher wouldnt hear. She had had enough of his fussing and yelling. even though the class had barely started yet. Great! They were boxing. She had never done it of course, but she did take karate, so she was pretty good at fighting. She just wondered who it would be up against.

[ashiko]

Sparky nodded, wondering if the other late kids would get a scolding like they did. His glove was out, so he put it back on.

Great, they were boxing. He hated boxing. A lot of times, the ends of the gloves would touch his wrists, or people would make him take his regular gloves off. This usually resulted in a flash of the future, and a bout of dizziness. That or his opponent's glove would hit him, (he wasn't good at blocking, though he excelled at dodging) and he'd get a flash of the future that way. Either way, it sucked.

((OOC: Hey, can I be introduced as a new student or something? Cuz I don't want to try to catch up...))

[NiaZen]

ooc: i'm going to wait untill the gym teacher yells at Talon and Tai....

[ashiko]

((ooc: I'm gonna wait till gym starts. . .))

[Icefire]

((me too.... probably.))

[anarchyheartless]

((sorry everyone. I've been grounded.))

Olakunde rounded on the two boys who were late. A blood vessel could have popped from the look on his face. "Get a pair of gloves and line up." He seethed, his voice growing louder despite his control. He rubbed the side of his head for a moment and then glared back at the two of them. "There is absolutely no reason that you should be late; there is plenty of time between classes, and after breakfast, so that there is no problem to get the things you need and coming to class. I do not stand for tardiness." He said, his voice uneven with anger, his muscle twitched. He walked up to the line of students and started pointing. "One, two. One, two. One, two. One, two." He said pointing to each student as he walked.

Mat was thankfully a 'one', and Kida was a 'two' so gladly Mat wouldn't ever be paired up with her. Mat stalked off to the left side of the gym, where the ones were supposed to go. She stood with her arms folded across her chest leaning against the wall.

Kida was smiling slightly as she almost danced across the matted floor to the right side of the ring where the twos were supposed to stand.

Tiphanie looked around the room with a hopeful expression. It seemed that Ola had gotten out most of his aggression on just screaming and he might not ruin these kid's first day.

Art crept into the meditation room and saw a few students already sitting on the floor. He saw their shoes by the wall and he put his shoes there as well and sat down with the others. Once there, he noticed some older students standing on a different part of the room with staffs, moving smoothly, some with blindfolds, some just with eyes closed. He sat and breathed slowly.

((I hope by now, there's no one in Meditation p1 that's not already there))
Madame Kyouko peered inconspicuously as she heard Arts shoes tapping lightly. "The only new child this year... He's a timid one" She thought as she watched him sit. She waited until he was settled and went to start class. She rang a chime to call attention. "Good morning! Welcome to the first meditation class of the year! The only rules in this room are respecting each other, listen well, and do your best to control your tempers and powers. Enjoy the year!" She went to Arturo and sat next to him. He looked up at her, silently. She began to tell him meditation basics. "Hello. I'm Madame Kyouko. I assume you've chosen Meditation for your powers. You seem not to have much temper at all. For your meditation. All you must do is breathe in a pattern. In for 5 seconds. Hold. And out for five seconds. You find your base and feel your power flow. Good luck, if you need anything, just ask."

Art tried to do as she asked. He was okay for a while, but he just couldn't find his "center"



----------------------
Eevy checked attendance and smiled at her class. "Hey guys! Welcome to art class! I'm Ms. Aria. You gan call me Miss Eevy, Eevy, whatever. This is NOT going to be one of those 'cop-out' classes like a lot of people last year thought it was. Rules are simple. Work hard, don't be an a**, follow any other rules I say later. I hope this year will be as fun for you guys as it should be for me. Today's going to be a free draw to find your guys style, what you like, all that jazz. If you don't have a sketchbook, there's paper on the table over there" She pointed to the table by the wall, "Come and talk whenever you feel like it." She put her face on her hands then perked up "Oh yeah! I have music classes during break time in the afternoon and sometimes afterschool. Flyers on the table. Have fun!"

[ashiko]

Sparky sighed, he was a two. He headed towards the right side of the gym, still avoiding putting the gloves on. He really hated boxing. Not just boxing, but football, basketball, kickboxing, any contact sport, really. That was why he like golfing and cricket. Not much future flashes involved.

Jerry stretched. Half the tables had been washed, and the floor was done. The mop, and the broom, ect. were hanging out near him, bopping him on the head whenever he stopped, telling him to keep working. He yawned, and turned to another table.

[idyllian]

Mackenzie walked away the watch still beeping at a steady pace. Hopefully it would last that way.

He had been assigned the number “one”, it wasn’t that hard to understand. Although he had never taken boxing in his life. Technically shouldn’t they be doing the basics instead of immediately paring up and preparing to beat each other senseless. Of course he had no idea what they were doing , so maybe they weren’t going to be hitting each other right off the bat.

He walked over to the side of the mat where he was supposed to stand arms down at his sides waiting for further instruction. ~Just stay calm...calm and cool.~
