School for the Super-Enabled

Rai ignored the stranger in the room and studied Lucane’s features. Was he dead? Fainted or simply asleep? He seemed fine or sound asleep so he thought he’d wait it out and see if he would be fine, if not then he’d get a hold of a teacher or something. He thought it seemed like a good idea though so he walked over to his own bed and gently lay down, resting his head on his pillow while not taking his eyes of off Lucane, just to be sure. “Dracula?” Rai repeated in a whisper. What the hell was he dreaming about? That would surely be a turn of events if this Dracula had existed, maybe the human race was this dense? Refusing to believe in anything supernatural, besides someone here and there who fanatically dressed as vampires or even worse the thousands of teens wanting one to suck them dry. He rolled his eyes and sighed.

A shadow was moving closer, obscuring the light coming in from the hall outside. Yuu quickly tried to take a hold on his current state but he was far too drunk. Shuffling briskly as he edged himself to the end of the bed, trying to keep his head up and seem as sober as possible. He rolled over his slothful eyes towards Lucane and Rai, wondering if Lucane was going to be okay. He's gone more pale, Yuu thought as he stared at his face for a second, it told a hundred stories.

Yuu swayed ever so slightly from side to side, in his feeble attempt to stay upright. The figure started to move closer, almost into sight as the stranger walked closer into the room and towards the bed. Yuu could see what he thought looked like a feminine figure dragging a suitcase inside.

Tsukiko...Could it be?! He instantly sighed, but in that moment pictured a girl in his head, a girl that he did not know, but wanted to. Yuu flexed his back muscles like a wild cat stalking it's prey before it attacks. Foolishly wishing the vision of the perfect girl would be somehow mirrored in reality.

He almost snapped his neck he turned around so quickly. Shaking his head in disappointment to see it wasn't the girl he'd envisioned, but a guy.
His hopes wasted on nothing more than a waking dream, like many other times before. He felt victimized, he felt like a man dying of thirst. So easily deceived and seduced by the image of a natural paradise in a dry, and desolate desert. Only to arrive and to find it was a mirage all along..

"So, who are.. what are, You doing in here?" Yuu asked in a halfhearted drunken slur, trying to hide the fact it felt like a ton weight had been magically placed in his stomach. Before the guy could reply. Yuu turned to his side, picking up a pillow that he softly feathered up. A growing smirk fashioned on Yuu's face as he turned to the stranger and jumped up off the bed and threw it directly at Lucane.

"Dracula, Wake up!" Yuu shouted.

Lucane was watching the five hundreth bunny hop over the wall, it was fat and short, so it was hard for him to really jump. But the other rabbits were cheering him on, so he eventually got over the wall. The rabbit didn't land with his tail though, as it was stabbed on one of the spikes. There was no blood though, which was strange.

Then he felt something hit the back of his head, which startled him a bit. His eyes opened, and slowly he propped himself up on the bed. He rubbed his eyes a bit, looking around the room. Slowly he tried to think for a bit, but to no avail as it made his head hurt again, then after a silence for a couple of seconds, he combed his hair back with his hand,"What?"

[Neliel]

-Ryo-
Rain thought they seemed rather rude, ignoring her all together but it didn’t bother her it was simply inconvenient. “Well I guess I’ll see you guys around then, sorry again.” She was about to turn around when Yuu answered her and threw her the bottle of scotch. She had never had a drink before and frankly didn’t think Ryo was the person to have either. He was the poster boy of good parenting and had never done anything wrong, always been the perfect child with perfect grades. “Names Ryo, parents sent me here to improve my skill set.” She grinned and grabbed the bottle before taking a sip, letting it roll around on her tongue for a while before daring to swallow. “Wooow…. That…” She fell into a coughing fit before she finished the sentence. “tastes like crap…” She eventually continued and sat down on the very same bed Yuu had thrown a pillow.

-Rai-
Rai wasn’t sure if he should yell at Yuu or just let it be, he didn’t like the uncertainty of not knowing if Lucane was alright or if he needed medical attention and it was a mere pillow so he should be fine, right? He studied the stranger who ignored the fluffy pillow which flew into Lucane’s face, he hadn’t even taken a notice of it. Instead he continued taking small sips of scotch, coughing from time to time, making grimaces as he swallowed. He seemed so calm and collected, like someone who hadn’t done anything wrong in their life and who had been taught to mind their own business. He could learn to like this guy, that was after he got a reading on him to learn more about him, but first he had to sober up.

He smirked and chuckled as Lucane groggily sat up and seemed a tad annoyed. “We were afraid you had died, is that even possible.” He wondered, copying Lucane and propped himself up before he nearly rolled out of bed and walked over to him. “You seemed to have a bad dream, mumbling something about Dracula.” He wanted to ask but figured it wasn’t the time or place for such conversations. “What? You dreamt you had to bake for me again? I get it, it was probably horrifying, although I do miss those cupcakes.” He joked trying to lighten the mood.

[MagickMagpie]

"I was, err.. worried" Yuu said scratching his head, he knew how disorientated he was but he expected Lucane was on a completely different astral plane. He could see the terror in his face.. I wonder what he saw? Yuu thought as he quickly stood up, flailing his arms in alarm but quickly returning them to his sides.
"We should try.. and err sober up. Anyone got any ideas?"

Before anybody could reply Rai walked over to Lucane. Yuu's face saddened, he had to stop letting any signs of love around him be interpreted as pain, as a weakness.
He clenched his right fist then quickly stretched his fingers out as he quickly paced to the end of the room. It wouldn't stop spinning, leaning against the window ledge. Scrunching up his face, he turned his back and bowed his head.

[Kaonashi]

Lucane laughed a bit at what Rai said, it bringing a light smile to his expression. Though he was still kind of confused, he tried to think once more. He didn't know what sobering up meant though, probably having to do with how dizzy he was feeling at the moment and most likely the others.

Looking up at Rai, he told in a still dizzy tone,"I miss it too." It was a lot more simpler back then, as he thought about it when he thought back to those days. Then going back to thinking of a way to do this 'sobering up' he didn't really come up with anything. For a few seconds he swayed, before speaking up,"I don't remember.....what that means."

[Neliel]

-Ryo-
“Why sober up? I hear people say it’s fun to be drunk.” Rain added as she took another sip, she was getting quite used to it by now, although it still tasted rather funny. “What’s……” She was about to ask about the sadness in his eyes but decided against it, it wasn’t something Ryo would do, he’d mind his own business unless it was a close friend or relative who was in need. “Sharpen up mate, think of happy times.” He smiled and sent the pillow flying back in return.

Rain was wondering what went through Yuu’s head, although she had quite a few ideas. He didn’t deserve to be sad though, it had been their own damn fault, she deserved to die and so did he. He had betrayed her by trying to leave. She hated traitors; he had taken everything from her. He was supposed to be the perfect soldier, everyone liked him and eventually Rain started resenting him. He took it all away from her and he was the reason her father constantly reminded her of how great he was. This is what she told herself every night until she eventually believed it. The friendship they once shared slowly turned into anger and hate which she eventually managed to suppress, now she felt nothing but pure rage. Not for what he had done to her but their clan.

She didn’t let one glimmer of rage show on her features and although her blood boiled Ryo continued to seem like the innocent, caring guy he was supposed to be. She was nothing but professional, especially on missions.

Rai smiled as he sat down next to Lucane. “It was simple but we can’t continue to hide forever. I think my mom told me this the day we left, although you shouldn’t have felt forced to bake me things. Although they were greatly appreciated, hey can vampires even eat food? If not how did you manage….. wait was I your test subject?” he continued to joke, instantly turning serious as he said he didn’t know what sobering up meant.

“Well it’s a tad hard to explain. Sobering up is like…. Well…. sharpen up, or rather rid ourselves of the alcohol in our bloodstream as we’re rather intoxicated. Like "un-drunk" in a way ” he scratched his head unsure of how to explain this. “Get it? Anyways maybe drinking some water and actually putting the bottles down would be a good start.” He turned toward Lucane again. “Don’t worry the dizziness will pass soon enough, it’s perfectly normal.”

[Kaonashi]

A test subject, he didn't know what he meant. He remembered that Rai's mom had taught him to bake, whenever he was in solid form. It was nice to learn from her, and with what he baked he gave them to Rai. But he figured that it wouldn't be something to mention, because Rai was scary when he got mad.

After Rai had answered he didn't talk anymore. He rested his head down back on the bed, his head felt weird. It wasn't that, well his mind sort of blanked out again. Lucane spaced out for a second, actually it continued since he was falling asleep again. Never, ever, in his immortal life would he drink, he came back to reality. "Will it hurt?"he asked, wondering if it would.

[Neliel]

Rai had somewhat managed to fall asleep so when Lucane spoke he jolted up and looked around. He had dreamt some weird shit and was glad he was woken up, especially seeing as he tended to talk in his sleep. He didn’t know if the dream meant something or if he should put it behind him. Although it might have had something to do with confessing to Lucane moments earlier. It was still bothering him that he wasn’t sure where he had Lucane. “Hmm? Will what hurt?”

He scratched his head, slightly confused.”Oooooh…. you mean sobering up?” he chuckled at himself, he was still very drunk, either he needed more or he should drink some water and sleep it off because he was getting nauseous. “Well not initially but you may end up with a headache and perhaps throw up, depends on what kind of person you are. But the process won’t. try drinking some water or in your case maybe pure blood, and some rest. It will pass…… eventually.”

-Ryo-
The others seemed to be quite drunk so Rain decided she'd continue to drink while studying Yuu, she obviously made sure she didn't get drunk. This wasn't the time to have fun and she had to make sure she could defend herself. She may have been a lightweight but she could handle some booze. Besides if it got bad throwing up helped clear her head, she had learned this when she had tried some of her father's alcohol which he had saved up in a giant cabinet.

[Kaonashi]

Lucane didn't want to really sober up then, he didn't want a head ache. It really hurt, and ached. Throwing up he had never really done before, but he had seen other people do it sometimes, some after drinking which he now sort of remembered, some people were able to do it themselves. But he didn't want to either because it sounded like it hurt and it was disgusting.

He opened his eyes, keeping them to look at Rai. He wondered if he would have a head ache or throw up, he didn't really want to choose. Though he wanted to 'sober' up, didn't know how that word came to the world, but there wasn't any blood that didn't have alcohol around. Well, he would have to get over it sometime since he knew that he wouldn't want to feel like this forever and it was impossible, he sunk his head back into the fluff of his bed, dreading the consequences.
