Saturday Lessons

[Justice]

Kane stood quietly outside the dorms awaiting his students to come outside. It was approximately six AM and the surrounding cherry blossoms hadn’t bloomed for the day quite yet. He had notified Solaris that he was to awaken the students in what ever way he pleased right now and Kane expected all students to arrive at the class for the day.

Kane had insisted that he be a teacher for Saturday Qi lessons and since he was the owner of the property and principal of the school, no one could tell him otherwise. Some would probably think that Kane was going overboard with waking the students up this early but they would appreciate it later when they got to feast in the dining hall on the most delicious foods and deserts Kane could find. But for now he had to focus on the lessons.

[Solaris Awren (Chronos)]

Solaris slipped out of the mainframe rather cheerfully...and phased in right beside Kane. He looked around smiling, it was foggy out, but rather pleasant otherwise...meaning it was to be a beautiful day out, perfect for the Qi practice that Kane had in mind. "So lets see here..." He muttered to himself in thought.

Pulling up a holographic control panel, he looked around for the spinker settings. And with a push of the button, turned on the ice cold sprinkers in the boy's dorms...should wake them up nice and quick.

As for the girls...something more creative. Holding out his arm, he start buzzing the nanites like bees...and in a swarm, sent them down the hallway. They were harmless, but they wouldn't know that...

[Matrim]

6am..... the clock said 6am.... i have.... mo..re... ti...m...e.. .to..... COOOOOOOOOOOOLDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD!!!!!!!!!!

Matrim shot up right in his bed, "Sprinklers in our *exploited deleted*'in rooms? WHAT THE *exploited deleted*"

He was used to waking up early, but this was different. Waking up on your own was a great feeling, waking up with a cold shower while you're still in your boxers, unforgivable. He quickly got up and put his pants on. He grabbed a grey hoodie and zipped it up over his father's necklace which carried a black venetian ring, no time to spike his blue hair, he decided it was OK not to wear shoes, after all he liked being barefoot no matter how cold it was.

He made his way outside, he had seen two teachers out there and assumed that they were the ones who decided to wake students up. "Oh don't tell me...." He would have cussed to himself if he had forgotten his mac, but luckily these were yestedays jeans, which had his MAC in the pocket from the night before. Running down to the grounds he fastened his belt and jogged up to the two teachers. He was the first student there, or maybe he wasn't supposed to be here....

"Good morning.... Mr. Kane, and Mr. Awren are your names, right?" He heard talk from the students, not to mention Orientation, he was usually horrible with names but he tried to make a point to remember there names. "Listen sirs, I'm sorry if I'm forgetting something, but isn't today saturday?"

[Justice]

Kane gave a questioning glace to the student before he spoke “apparently only a few were paying attention to the orientation beyond teachers names… here’s the deal, it is Saturday but that doesn’t mean you have the day off. You still have to train on those little special abilities of yours called Qi, but you will learn about that soon enough on the training course where you will be split into teams and sent out into it. But, once again that will be explained later.”

Kane stood tall and awaited for more students than just this one, they would all be forced out of bed and out into the courtyard and to Kane and Solaris. This Saturdays lessons was on the practical use of Qi powers, the first of many to be exact but the students would be rewarded well for hard work today.

[Corgan]

Corgan run to the little meeting place for Qi practice with his long hair trailing behind him. He knew of Qi, could even harness it to some extent, though only for meditation right now. But this was something different and he was extremely eager to see what it was. The problem was that even though he woke up in time to get there at the right time, he didn't know the layout of the school yet and he scolded himself for not looking a map up on his MAC where it likely held the info needed.

He arrived with a smile and a small wave.
"Wow, sorry if I'm late. I just got a little turned around on my way here. It won't become a habit, I assure you." He said as he stretched a little bit and mentally ran through his knowledge of Qi. He already knew that it was a person's internal energy and that some had been able to harness it in impressive ways. He never learned to do more than make a mediative Qi ball in his hands before though.

He looked around and saw the one kid from his history class with the Doctor along with Solaris and Kane Hikarai himself.
Hey hey, the head-honcho is giving the lesson? Well this should be fun. I can't wait for things to get going. He thought as a smaller smile appeared on his face. He wasn't sure what would come of this little lesson, but he would give it his utmost attention.

[Artemis Chekov]

Powerful.

Strong.

Cruel.

Fearless.




Destructive.


She had been called many things, insults and praises rained down on this femme fatal like the systemic sprinklers of the school. It was just another part of her life.

Thick soled black combat boots thumped down on the hallway floors, power rang out in each step. Leather shined in the florescent lights, so did the shiny black metal of her guns.

Buckles and straps kept them in place on her person. Artemis Chekov was a walking armory...she had twenty-three guns on her at the current moment.

Six pistols tied the outside of her left leg.

Six tied the right.

Two on the inside of her right leg.

Two on the left.

One on her left upper arm.

Another on the right.

One on tops of each boot.

Two rifles on her back.

One shotgun on her lower back.


She was not one to mess with.


Ever.


Granted all of these were filled with rubber bullets, as were the clips and refills that were attached to the leather corset she was wearing. Safety first remember?

Black and purple. These were her two main colors at the moment. The black of her leather bindings that you could call clothing....or armor and the dark sinister purple of her stained locks of silky hair. Of these dark and foreboding colors, there was one that stood out above all the darkness.


Her eyes.



They stood out among all else. Orbs of the deepest, darkest red that burned with the crazed passion of one who had seen all....and committed worse. Everything about these circles of fire screamed antagonist, screamed demon.

Artemis Chekov had no soul, had no conscience. One could witness this for at this very moment she was rounding up the stragglers, culling them like cattle to the place the Qi training was to be held. One of her pistols was in her left claw, black nails scrapping the metal trigger back to slam a child in the lower back with rubber pain. An evil grin turned the corners of her black lips as she strutted through the halls. A low musical laugh would bubble through those lips as she continued her work. The scars on her face and exposed flesh rippled in the pale light, dancing like sick slivers of moonlight on her white skin.

Artemis was what nightmares were made of.



And she loved every minute of it.



Fear was her sustenance.



When she wasn't drinking.

[Alex]

Alex made his way to the meeting spot where his father was holding a Qi lesson, his MAC in his pocket. Alex, unlike the other boys in the school who slept in dorms, didn't wake up to sprinklers giving him a early morning shower, he had woken up to the sound of music blaring from his cellphone alarm. He sat up in bed, the metal cross he had received from Kyoko bouncing back and resting on his chest. As soon as he got out of bed he had slipped on black jeans, a black t-shirt, and his normal black jacket.

He made his way outside, and immediately recognized Corgan, but the other student there, he didn't know, but he was sure he would soon find out. His footsteps made dull thumps as he reached his father and Mr. Awren. " Good morning...Mr. Kane, Mr. Awren." he said immediately, giving his father the respect he deserved, out here, in front of his classmates, his father was his teacher, but when not in front of them, his father was his father, plain and simple. He looked around he hoped that it wouldn't just be the three of them, but knowing his father, he had a plan to made sure the students came, whether they liked it or not.

[Matrim Aldon]

He tossed and turned in his sleep. Violent flashes of images flew in his mind as he slept. Yelling, howling and screams of rage as he was strapped to a steel chair and given horrible injections. Men walked across the floor. He could see himself there, as if it wasn't really him being tortured but him witnessing his own body being tortured. His Crimson red hair and Clover green eyes darted and swung then the steel vault doors slammed shut only to hear the echo of the howl.

He awoke with a start. Cold sweat ran from his bare chest and back. It was the same dream over and over again but it never stopped making him toss and turn. He stared at the blinking red lights of his clock. It was almost 6. He sighed as he got up and dressed. He wore cargo shorts and his usual black sleeve-less t-shirts. Today however he put on some steel toed boots. Dark Brown. Today was a lesson and he would definitely be wailing on some little children today. He also pulled out a belt with a dozen or so knives on it, combat and serrated knives, a 6'8" quarterstaff and put on his hand wraps. He was ready to kick some ass now.

He decended the stairs of his room and headed towards the court yard. He saw people were already there, he was 5 minutes late but who cares, he was the Vice Principal. He looked to see 2 adults a man and a woman who seemed to be strapped with weaponry, an AI, and a student there. The man was the Principal, Kane, he knew that since he was directly under him. The AI was the security AI and was easy to tell it was him. The girl he didn't know and neither did he know the student but the girl had a shotgun, two rifles and pistols placed across her body.

He sniffed. Feh, Gun buckets, what you can't kill toe to toe you just blow them away with rounds. He thought with distaste. Nothing wrong with people using guns against others who had bigger guns, but guns and firearms required no skill to kill someone with, it was point and click. Melee combat however, toe to toe, boxing, knife fights. All were signs that you were stronger and better then your opponent.

He crossed his arms and pulled up and let drop on one of the knives back into the slot of the belt. He looked to Kane, who spoke of something about Qi powers. He didn't really care about it other then the fact that it was like a super power, "So whats first?" he asked indifferently.

[sephora]

Sephora tossed in her J. Crew sheets. Her auburn hair was fuzzy around her head and she scrubbed at her eyes. She could hear screaming in the hallway and she rose. She slept naked, so it was not a big deal to throw on black panties, a vera wang skirt, and a banana republic t-shirt. Gucci sandals made the outfit complete in under fourty seconds. Deciding today she would go with the messy look, she threw her hair into a ponytail, grabbed her sunglasses, and slipped out the door.

Girls ran everywhere, screaming bloody murder. Looking down the hallway, she saw something crawling and in force. Deciding it would be a good idea to walk the other way, she followed the crowd swiftly, unsure of what it was that was chasing them all.

Making it out the building, she was happy to have snatched her sunglasses. Joining the group of other students, she looked in the direction of the faculty, standing and watching the students pour from the dorms.

[Alex]

Alex couldn't help but smirk as he saw students, boys and girls come pouring out of the school, some looking very drenched, others clearly pissed and annoyed, and others still drenched, pissed, and annoyed. Beside him, slightly behind him, he saw a girl with sunglasses on who had come out with the crowd, he centered his gaze on her, taking in her appearance before turning around and facing his father and the staff once again.

Considering that the guys that slept in the dorms were drenched, some of them looking like wet sheep dogs, Alex concluded that the sprinklers had been used to give them a wake up call, but as for the girls, he had no idea, must've been something very creative to have made them scream like that.

Alex stood there patiently, waiting for the lesson to begin, as he supressed a yawn, it was after all, early morning, and while he probably could tell that almost all the students were thinking this was ridiculously early for a lesson, Alex knew his father probably had something planned after the lesson was finished, the question was, what was it? They'd find out, later.

[Schwarzer Blitz]

Swartz slicked his orange hair back over his face as he slowly sat up from the bed, shaking it, the water left as he sighed, the book on his table, Sun Tzu's Art of War, had been soaked to bits, it was unreadable.
"Atleast I'm up." Streching his back, he got dressed slowly, lucky he had put his clothing in a bag, and dried his hair off with a spare shirt before throwing it in the bag. The sword came last, and he stepped out of the Dorm.

He was too tired to run, so he simply walked his way over to the group gathering on the grounds, yawning as he took a spot in the back.

"Dieses aufzuwecken ist früh verrückt und Sprenger?! Sie ruinierten mein Buch!" He said, he was slightly upset

[Justice]

Kane looked to the crowd and smiled as he stood before them. His words were quiet and patient but still loud enough to be heard over the crowd. He looked out to them all and said “Welcome class, to the first Saturday lessons of the school year. In this class you will be learning Qi powers and all I require is that you pay attention to what I say. Today’s lessons is a double lessons, first is a tiny bit of information on Qi powers and then we give an example of them in a fight between two teachers, and another fight between two students.”

He turned around and started to walk off towards the trees, aiming for an open battle ground he had designed for this school alone, he expected the kids to follow, for their lesson today would all be as they head towards the battle ground.

[Matrim]

Matrim followed the principal as he walked. He had just explained Qi, something Matrim was able to do. The very thing that got him landed with Murder one when he couldn't afford a decent lawyer, because all of his inheritance was spent on...

drumroll please...

being able to activate his Qi. Isn't that just great? Well, Matrim's Qi wasn't exactly perfect though. He still could activate it in a fight if he needed to. It was more reaction and instinct in a dangerous time then anything else.

"Can I be one of the students to fight?" Matrim asked, speaking up with his hand raised to show who had spoken, "I think my Qi would work well for other students to practice their Qi on... at least... the majority of students."

After all, Matrim's Qi was a shield which protected him from most physical harm and from most Qi abilities of the same skill level. Most people who added the elements to their attacks wouldn't be able to hurt Matrim with their Qi, and it would be a safer route for everyone. Of course, Matrim also really just wanted the fighting experience. He would fight the entire class that one day if he had to, even if he ended up limping away.

Then I'll get to see what everyone is made of....

[Schwarzer Blitz]

Swartz walked slowly in the milling crowd behind the principal, he was too lazy to do much more. As he looked around, he slipped through the crowd to the blue-haired person that had said he wanted to fight today. Swartz spoke to him as he countinued his walk.
"It is nice to meet you, I am Swartz, and I ask your name, but why would your Qi Power be good for the Students, or Us, to train on?" He spoke, he rubbed his arm, he felt embarssed to be asking such a question to a person he had never met.

OOC: Talking to Matrim-Mini, and asking a question

[Corgan]

Use in combat huh? Well I can't focus it that well, but I have been able to make those little electrical bursts, maybe this will be a good way to hone in on that ability. Corgan thought as he followed the headmaster. He wondered who he would fight, or if he would at all. The way Kane had said 'between two students' wasn't very clear, but Corgan was pretty sure that it meant that he would pair each student with another.
