Stuck at Assamoana High

[EJP]

(HEY VEROS! You still apart of this RP or what?)

*Tigerwolf looked at Aina. He to didn’t feel like playing High School, mainly because he wasn’t sure what to expect of it. However he lacked the edge needed to turn things around for him. Right now the only thing Tigerwolf could do with relative ease was to kill everyone around him one by one, but doing so would serve no purpose at the moment.*

Tigerwolf: “Look… person who I already forgot the name of. Just where would you go? Let’s face it; we have no known home, no weapons, no money, and no idea where we really are. Maybe we should play along until we are set up enough to do something?”

*Mahoro shook her head in agreement even though she was a bit interested in attending just to see what could happen at this school.*

Tigerwolf: “Now then… let’s see… lockers.”

*Tigerwolf lifted up his box and to look at the arrows on the ground. He and everyone else looking at them would notice 2 different sets of arrows that both had the word “lockers” in them but didn’t state anything past that. The arrows both lead away from the administration office and towards the center of the building. If anyone was to look closer at these arrows, one would notice that one arrow had a picture of a shoe below it while the other had a picture of a T-shirt.*

Star thumbed toward Tigerwolf. "Man's got a point, lady," she told Aina. "Those were pretty much my thoughts. It's our best option for finding anything out right now, and it's not like somebody's stringing you up by puppet lines and making you wear a bikini."

For now, since both arrows led the same way, Star just started following them, finishing the inevitable thought as she went. "I swear," she muttered, "if someone tries to get me to parade around in a bikini just to try to make me eat my words, they're gonna get hurt ..."

[This One]

"And besides," Riah reminded, "didn't someone mention something about our heads exploding if we acted like we weren't supposed to be here? I don't know that they can make that happen, but they brought us here, right? So who knows what kind of power they have? I don't want to be killed." She looked down at the two arrows, then back to Aina. "Um, but that's just my opinion."

With that, she followed after Star towards the center of the school.

[ketaro]

((!!!))


"Tch, pain in the ass." Rubricante commented offhandedly, shoving his hands in his pockets, and followed suit in walking where ever these arrows led. He was being suprisingly cooperative, not exactly wanting to risk underestimating whatever this opponent was that forcibly brought them here; he'd made that mistake before and look at the hell that brought him. Sherry didn't seem to have much of an opinion to toss out there while everyone else was sharing thoughts, silently trailing behind Rubricante. A shiver suddenly went down her spine however as Riah reminded them about that part where they could die at any moment should they reveal they don't belong. "W-well, putting aside the whole, um, head exploding thing, this whole highschool thing could be kinda fun, ya? I mean, uh, its highschool after all..." She laughed nervously, silencing herself soon enough.

[EJP]

(I'm bored of waiting. I may have a ton of homework to do, but I feel like posting so MEH! No more waiting. VEROS, if you still plan to be in this RP you need to post soon or I'm booting you out of it.)

*Tigerwolf watched as one by one the group started to follow the arrows away from him. He had heard Star's remark on wearing a bikini and simply thought that it was odd. While Tigerwolf did have some ideas in mind to mess with Star, getting her into any sort of swim wear wasn't on the list. What was on the list was tricking her into eating Soup de shoe, which was an old war joke for feeding someone their own shoes. However Tigerwolf was caught a bit off guard that Star was agreeing with him. He thought to himself if this could be a chance where he WOULDN'T end up getting thrown out of a window? Mahoro on the other hand missed Star's comments but listened to everyone's remarks. She worried about the whole head exploding thing but for the most part ignored it. When Sherry commented that it might be fun to go to school here Mahoro thought it'd be a good idea to ask something to her.*

Mahoro: "I hope it is fun here. It might not be the same fun I have back in my world with El Wray..... WAIT! I didn't mean it in a dirty way. I just meant that we have fun working together and- oh shoot. Errrrr... never mind that. What are high schools like Sherry?"

*Mahoro for the most part was home schooled due to her being a 3rd generation super hero in her family. While she didn't know any of the people there besides Tigerwolf, she didn't want it known that she is a super hero. Even though if they were from her world, they'd be able to figure it out by the way she was dressed. As for Tigerwolf, she knew he could read minds and simply figured that when they first met back in her world he read Mahoro's mind and found out her real identity already. While some people were following the arrows, Tigerwolf had other plans. Not fully convinced with what the voice said, he wanted to make sure all his powers were not working in even the slightest way. So while some headed for the lockers, he head for the next floor with box in hand, hoping to find a mostly empty room for him to test and see if his powers worked at all. Truthfully he already knew what he would find in his locker. While away from the group while looking for a box, he saw some students. To his horror, the students wore uniforms. With that in mind, it was simple to figure out that what waited in the lockers, were uniforms and maybe school supplies. The only other thing on his mind as he left Mahoro and the others was that if he didn't have mind reading powers, was he actually going to have to do school work?*

*As Star and the others made her way towards the center of the school they would notice that the arrows suddenly split in two different directions. The arrow with the shoe lead towards Star's left which would have Star moving out of main building but was apparently closer than the other arrow. The arrow with the shirt lead forward for a ways and then seemed to go around a corner. Everyone would continue to notice that the hall ways were empty of students.*

[Ninmast]

Star, figuring she'd knock out the nearest first, turned to head after the shoe arrow.

[ketaro]

Through with just following the crowd, Rubricante broke off from said crowd now and opted to follow the arrows following the shirt picture. Sherry paused for a moment, looking between the two, before quickly going to catch up with Rubricante.

[This One]

When the two arrows broke away from each other, Riah got an uneasy feeling that if she were to follow the one with the shoe, she would somehow end up wearing nothing but shoes. She wondered if that could give her that magically appearing money, but she didn't want money that badly. She'd rather be barefoot than naked, she reasoned, and went with Sherry and Rubricante

[EJP]

(Hey Psi, can you pick up your posts and post more than once every 2 weeks? I'd like to get this RP moving a little faster before I'm buried again in homework. VEROS, this may be your last warning before I sent off your character's Battle Royal collar and boot you from the RP.)

*Turning the corner and following the show arrow just a little more would lead Star to what appeared to be a bunch of small lockers at an entrance/exit to the building she was in. Each locker appeared to be measured at approximately 1ft by 1ft and was in stacks of 4 with a solid metal door with 3 air slits in it. If Star was knowledgeable, she would recognize these lockers as Shoe Lockers. If Star was to search through the lockers she would find a locker that matched the number on the key she was given to her (0666). Also if she was to search, she would find the shoe locker number that was Tigerwolf’s (0649) that was close by to her’s. Examining any locker further would reveal that it indeed had a key lock. If Star was to do a search check and roll higher than a 3, she would find that there was a piece of translucent tape on her locker that served no purpose. If she rolled anything under a 3, she wouldn’t notice the tape. As for the characters who didn’t head for the shoe lockers, after some more walking they would eventually end up at 2 locker rooms. One locker room was clearly labeled “boys” and the other “girls”. Spot checks of that area would reveal that there were no guards, locks, or anything to prevent anyone from entering either locker room.*

*Mahoro looked at the remaining party of Chris, herself, and Aina. Since both appeared to be lost in thought from her perspective she decided to move on and head for the Shoe Lockers, quickly leaving them both behind. Tigerwolf on the other hand had made it to the next floor and after a short while had found the library. The first power he had planned to test out was mind reading. Since he parted ways with the rest of the group early and went on a search for a box, he had tried using his mind reading powers, only to find them not working. When in the principle’s office, he was trying to subtly read minds but still found it not working. As it stood, the only mind he could read was Mahoro’s, but that was because she made it known that she was thinking of El Wray, her apparent boyfriend. To Tigerwolf the library was the perfect place to practice his mind reading powers since it should be quite and their should be students reading books, allowing him to easily focus on someone and pick up their thoughts. Tigerwolf opened the door with one hand while stilling holding onto his box. As soon as Tigerwolf stepped inside the library some strange music* started to play, which surprised him.*

Tigerwolf: “What the crap?”

*Tigerwolf took a step backward putting him outside of the library. As soon as he was out of the library, the music stopped causing him to look around a bit. Seeing no one, he stepped back inside the library and the music* from before started up again from the beginning.*

Tigerwolf: “You have got to be joking!”

(Note: Only Tigerwolf can hear the music. Unless your character suddenly appears in the library, they cannot hear the music.)

[Ninmast]

Star frowned thoughtfully. "Huh. Japanese-ish school. Shoe lockers. Makes sense. I wonder if there's a pair of uniform shoes ..."

Fishing out her key, she tried it on the lock. If there were, she'd go ahead and switch them for her outdoor shoes, which she would place in there to pick up when it was time to leave. Afterwards or otherwise, she'd follow it back and head to the other one for the locker rooms and where she expected to find the rest of the uniform.

[This One]

After finding the rooms apparently open, Azariah stepped inside the one appropriate for her gender. At least if they got uniforms she wouldn't have to keep wearing the ones covered with pseudo-blood.

She searched for a locker with the number she had been assigned.

[ketaro]

"Oh! Locker rooms! That makes sense." Sherry exclaimed before walking towards the locker room for girls. She paused just before entering and looked back at Rubricante who had remained standing in the middle of the hallway. "What're you waiting around for Ruby? Go into that one," she pointed towards the boy's locker room, "and you should find a locker that goes with the key you were handed. Ok?" She gave a short wave and entered the girl's locker room to find her own locker.

Rubricante crossed him arms after she'd gone in and looked at the door to the boy's locker room. "The hell is a locker..." Grumbling, he went ahead and walked into the room soon enough.

[EJP]

*Opening the locker would surprise Star. However the surprise would be in a good way as apposed to opening the locker and getting hit in the face with a pie or stink bomb. Then again this is Star so she could have gotten mad at what she found. Inside the locker was indeed a pair of white indoor school shoes, but there was more than just shoes. The shoes sat on top of a neatly folded complete school uniform. Searching the entire locker would reveal more things. Inside the locker was a pink cell phone that flipped open and had a camera built into it. Along with the cell phone was another key with a big keychain on it. Examine the key chain would reveal an address and phone number to what appeared to be an apartment complex, judging from the miniature map on the other side of the key chain that placed the complex 2 miles South of the school. The Last thing in the locker that Star would find would irk her. It was a blue with white strings string bikini that had a top that was 2 sizes too small for Star and a sticky note attached to the right breast. If the string bikini didn’t trouble star the sticky note surely would puzzle her. The note read “I noticed you couldn’t stop admiring this the other day. - Tai”. The sticky noted had a little chibi face of Tigerwolf on it grinning and giving her a thumbs up drawn on it. If star would search her memory she might not find a moment in her life where Tigerwolf had given her a thumbs up. She might clearly remember getting all sorts of hand gestures of the insulting variety but never a thumbs up from him. One thing was clear however, there was no way Tigerwolf, the one that powerless and stuck here with Star, could have put that string bikini into Star’s shoe locker. Unless, he was some how in on this scenario. He was the only one that could talk back in the white fog and it might appear that he was avoiding opening his envelope. Not to mention, he did find a box.*

Mahoro: “I wonder what treasures might await me in my locker.”

*Mahoro’s voice announced her presence. She was clearly behind Star but it was uncertain as to where exactly she was behind Star.*

Mahoro: “Now then, Locker number 0638. Where are you?”

*Mahoro was searching for her locker but was currently one isle over from Star.*

*Elsewhere! Riah, Rubricante, and Sherry trip to the locker rooms would be one of confusion. While searching for their numbers they would find that the lockers not only didn’t have their number but the lockers numbers only went up to 250 and that all the locks on the lockers were different with some being combination locks and others pad locks. Clearly, their keys went to the shoe lockers that they had passed instead of heading there first. As for the locker rooms themselves, they were rather basic with 250 long door blue lockers with metal mesh benches in between the isles. The locker rooms also had showers and a bathroom. Close examination of the bathrooms may have caused some concern to Riah, Rubricante, and Sherry. For the most part, the lockers room and shower areas looked basic but the bathrooms reveal that Riah and Sherry were in the boy’s locker room while Rubricante was in the girl’s locker room. Apparently someone switched the signs on the doors to the locker rooms. Luckily, no one was in either of locker rooms.*

*MEANWHILE in the library, the music continued to play for Tigerwolf. He looked around in bit of confusion. The music didn’t appear to be coming from anywhere within the library as the sound levels stay the same no matter where he stood in the library. This music perplexed him, but a last, he decided to ignore it and examine his surroundings. The library was small compared to some of the other libraries he has been in and it lacked computers. There were plenty of tables, chairs, and study booths. The one thing the library was lacking most at this time was students. Only one student was in the library. She was female with purple-ish blue-ish hair and was wearing a school uniform. She sat bare foot on pillow on the floor close by to a window reading a book with several books around her. Tigerwolf thought this she was a bit odd but for the most part the music that apparently only he could hear was far odder. She didn’t seem to notice Tigerwolf and Tigerwolf quickly paid her no mind and sat down at one of the study booths with his box.*

Tigerwolf: Well at least her thoughts should be easy to pick up. Now then, focus.

*Tigerwolf put his box on the table of the booth and closed his eyes. He tried to focus in on the girls thoughts. He cleared his own mind and his own bodily feelings and continued to focus. The music continued to play as if it was on an endless loop. Tigerwolf tried his best to ignore the music but the more he tried to focus the louder the music seemed to get. Taking a deep breath he continued to try and ignore the music but the music continued to get louder for him. Finally he snapped and grabbed both of the airsoft Mark 23 pistols of his box and fired them madly at the ceiling until they were out of 6mm yellow plastic pellets. Because they were plastic pellets they simply bounced off the ceiling and went all over the room with a few hitting Tigerwolf in the head. Tigerwolf was unfazed by the pellets but was breathing heavily once the guns went dry. The music continued to play but had gotten much quitter.*

Female voice: “Excuse me.”

*Tigerwolf looked over to see the girl who was sitting on the pillow now standing a few feet away from him looking at him with a blank look on her face.*

Female student: “Could you please stop doing that.”
Tigerwolf: “The music! It just-“

*Tigerwolf paused for a moment. The words from the epic voiced repeated in his head about his head exploding. Tigerwolf cleared his throat.*

Tigerwolf: “Sorry about that. I had this dream and I was being attacked by singing bats and I guess I woke up and went with by natural instincts thinking I was still in the dream.”
Female student: “Oh, ok then.”

*The girl left and sat back down on her pillow on the floor. Just as she left the music started getting louder again.*

Tigerwolf: Why do I get the feeling someone is trying to get me to talk to her?

Stepping out of the locker room, Sherry cocked her head in confusion and looked at the signs again. "Well that isn't a very nice trick. But, I guess this isn't the right place anyways?" She poked her head into the other locker room Rubricante had entered and saw him just standing there looking around. "Ruby, lets go. I guess you just took the wrong path." she says sweetly to him, earning herself a look of disgust from Rubricante of which she just missed. The two began backtracking towards the shoe lockers now.

[Ninmast]

Star glanced back at Mahoro from the note she was puzzling over, and instead pulled the uniform, phone and shoes out after plucking the note off and slipping it into her pocket. "They're our uniforms. And apparently our lodging." She held up the second key. "Mine's in an apartment complex about two miles off. I have a hunch that's where we'll all be." She slipped her street shoes off and put them into the locker, as well, before shutting the door and locking it again. "I'm going to go find a bathroom and get changed, track down my rooms for tomorrow, then find the others. I figure we're going to need to discuss our next step."

As she started down the hall and headed toward the nearest women's bathroom, she flipped the phone open and checked it for any contact or personal information.
