Lady Violetta smiled and nodded before speaking."Please excuse me, students. Feel free to talk among your selves and I shall be back momentarily."When she saw the young man she smiled and held out her hand as she spoke."Hello, my name is Lady Violetta. I am the headmistress here at Caldwell's Academy of Magical Talents and Draconic Arts. Thank you Palantine for alerting me to our newest staff member. Please get the pizza party ready for the students. I am afraid that they might get restless just waiting around.Please tell me a bit of yourself so that I can suggest a position for your skills." Lady Violetta spoke in a relieved voice.

White Mage shook the teachers hand, smiling he said. "Sergeant Major James Pelash, at your service. I have been a Combat Medic in the Marines for 17 years.The military gives you a lot of life skills, but for me, even more so than normal. A Sergeant Major serves as an advisor to commanding officers of Marine units. Sergeant Majors act as a bridge between the enlisted Marines and their commanders, they assist in unit logistics, drilling, and disciplinary actions among their Marines. The Sergeant Major also communicates the needs and concerns of the enlisted Marines, and he offers advice on vital tactical or command decisions. In addition to advising the commanding officer of a unit, the Sergeant Major is also tasked with implementing the commanding officer's orders. Upon receiving orders, the Sergeant Major relays the information to the enlisted personnel and delegate tasks accordingly. This works hand in hand with the Sergeant Major's role as advisor to the commanding officer, and it allows an effective line of communication within a unit." He had really liked doing the duties of Sergeant Major, as he felt like he could help the soldiers around him best that way.

James took a breath and then continued. "But that was only part of my duties, for as a Combat Medic I was the only hospital around for any medical needs the soldiers had. I was also there to help with any physical and psychological problems a person might have in the combat zone. And I had to constantly try and keep the morale up among the men in my battalion, as well as to make sure everyone was in good physical condition at all times. And that's basically my life in a nutshell, at first I trained to be in the army, even in my youth, and then I had been in the service ever since. But to be honest, I would be looking forward to no longer being in a warzone." James still had a smile on his face, he felt like this was the perfect time to have gotten out of the military, he was done with all the death and hate that comes from being in a hostile territory.

"Well, I don't want to sound weird... but I did try to introduce myself back then... You and your friends kinda glared at me though so I backed out before getting anywhere near you. This whole situation... well it's kind of nerve wracking and I just wanted to say if you ever did want to talk about anything you could ask me... back there you seemed to need it..."At that moment, the cyborg walked in the door. It looked as though his entire arm had been shaped out of metal, possibly a gun before the reshaping. His jaw dropped a bit as he stared openly at the man with the metallic arm.

"Oh, yeah we kind of did that to other kids." Chastity said, she felt this pang of regret. But didn't like it so she tried to change the subject. "This is pretty messed up. When you're so used to living, and doing things a certain way, but then pulled away from it and expected to do things completely differently, it's jarring. And kind of makes you of want to try and do things that are familiar to you. Even if they don't work out the same way in the new environment." She was sort of trying to make an excuse for her outburst, even if she knew she shouldn't have opened herself up like that to all of them. Chastity saw that Zack was staring at something, she followed his gaze to see a man with a robotic arm, it almost looked like it had gun parts in it. She noted that he had a military backpack on, and figured he must be a part of some secret government project to fit soldiers with machine gun limbs. She wasn't really concerned about it, because if Lady Violetta could read minds, then she could certainly take out this a*s hole if she needed to.

Palastine brought her an energy drink, she responded saying. "Oh, thank you, but I don't need it right now." She tossed it in her bag for later.
