[u][i]Theresa Sindel Obott.[/i][/u]

Right when the conversation was going just so swell, Quinn had to come up and drop a bomb on Theresa. She herself had to double-take. What the [i]did[/i] Quinn mean by she has a dick? Like, she's a boy, or something else...? Maybe it was just a slip? Honestly, Tess didn't know how to take this news. So she had one way to handle it. Joke. "Whoooooooa, nelly, TMI, [i]TMI[/i]..." Tess followed that up with a bout of awkward laughing. "Get a hold on yourself there pal." Theresa was trying not to make a big deal out of it by being sarcastic and joking as always. Though, it was probably best if they forget about this. Just to keep things from getting awkward. "How about this? I'll forget that you ever said anything, if you'd accompany me to this jungle fair...." Theresa was about to finish it off by saying 'maiden' but she wasn't sure if Quinn was 100% on the 'Surprise! I have a penis' thing - And honestly, she didn't want to know. Might have been a simple Freudian slip.

There wasn't much more for Theresa to go over here, well, other than the scene at the pool table heating up. Shannon was being fiery as always, Tess didn't know why, but whatever it was; it got her [i]heated[/i]. She swore she heard a few mentions of murder, but wasn't sure. Deborah was talking her down. Scary Black Man was being scary, with mountain-man almost looking pretty racist. Vespera was doing her attention whoring ([i]Heh... and with that outfit, I bet literal whoring.[/i]). Ultimately, none of this was any concern to Theresa, because, heh, she's just an outside observer. Well, it was time to stop being an outside observer, and start being the adventurer that she is on the inside! At least do something in the jungle. If she can't find Henry, then she'll go hit the beach. Oh, she'll bring that bikini she liked, though wasn't really made for people like Tess. Well... Nobody would be watching.

Tess got up from off the couch, and gave Quinn a smirk. "Alright, if you're up to it, then meet me outside the front gates of the Academy. Don't keep me waiting!" Tess quickly ran off. She had to gather all her things. If Quinn didn't show up, then she was going to get the show on the road without her.

[u][i]Valjean Vaseal, & Abigail "Pink" Vincigarru.[/i][/u]

[hider=Grimm's Theme][youtube]timyAe6limY[/youtube][/hider]

At a beach not too far off from the docks, the famous 'Desert Scorpion' of the 218 was standing in the middle of the beach. Honing his skills. Since that disappointing match, he needed to blow off some steam since he didn't get the chance to [i]wreck[/i] some kids. Ugh, whatever. Jean was going to make sure he gives Adam a piece of his mind later. He was wearing nothing but a white tank top, and orange sweat shorts, with white sneakers. He had a towel slung around his shoulder. He wanted to try out this sand-manipulation technique he had in mind. He smirked. He punched the ground with all his strength. The sand began shifting and sliding around him. He drew sand from all over the beach (Though if it was wet, he couldn't touch it) and created a massive dome around himself of pure sand. It had to be at least four feet thick. He wanted to see if he could create shield of sand. Because his usual fighting style consisted of turning into a scorpion and kicking ass, but what [i]if[/i] he doesn't have a chance to turn into a scorpion and kick ass? He would need to adjust pretty fast. So why not make a big ass shield made out of sand like this? Held together from his sheer willpower! One problem, though.

He had nothing to test it with.

Ugh. Valjean shifted some of the sand out of the way to make a door and stormed out the dome. He quickly put the sand back in place. Already, he would need to try [i]extra[/i] hard for this ([i]Heh, just like I'll be when Debs drops her panties![/i]). He looked around for a large rock on the beach. Until he found one that was bigger than his hand! Good, this will do. Valjean bent over and grabbed it, he was strong enough to hold it. He walked back over to the dome, and focused. He was trying extra-hard to hold the barrier together. He cocked the rock back, getting ready to throw it. Valjean threw the rock, and despite his calculations, his shield stopped the rock, but not as well as he hoped. Maybe it was because... Maybe he couldn't focus on throwing the rock, [i]and[/i] holding the shield together? Shit, that old fart Adam keeps rambling about how powers are a subconscious thing. What if that's at work here. Valjean kicked the sand at his feet in anger. He needs to find some poor schmuck to punch this barrier.  

Finally revealing herself, the Leviathan, Pink, had finally shown herself. She swam up on the beach, and bobbed her head out (Only her eyes were shown). Staring at Valjean with an eyebrow raised. She couldn't really make out what he was doing, because her eye-sight wasn't that good. "The hell is he doing?" She asked herself. Whatever it was, Pink wanted no part of. The shark-girl got out of the water, and started slowly walking onto the sandy beach. She felt her power diminish as she left the ocean she was so familiar with. She shuddered. Pink would meet Ben and return to the ocean soon as possible. She is an ocean deity after all.

Trying to be stealthy didn't go as well as Pink wanted. He whipped towards her like he heard a bullet. "Hey you!" Valjean shouted at Pink, "Shark-gal! Come punch this for me!" It was his enhanced sense of smell and seismic sense at work.

Pink froze in her tracks, and rolled her eyes. She turned towards Valjean, and couldn't make out his features, more of a vague outline of him, at least from this distance. He was big and bulky, Pink didn't know what to say about that, but she pegged him as a jock. "Sorry, but I have things to do." Either way, it came down to Pink not wanting anything to do with him, and wanting to go along. She started marching off. 

"Hey, I got things to do too, pal! Like making [i]you[/i] test this!" Valjean pointed a finger at Pink, but she was leaving him in the dust. Well, she was standing on his domain after all. Maybe this trick didn't work too well on Quinn, but her, and that skimpy bikini... Valjean giggled as he put both hands on the sand. He created a spiral underneath Pink's feet, which forced it's way into her bikini bottom for the most uncomfortable thing ever....

"... [i]Fucking asshole![/i]" Pink hissed through her teeth, snapping her jaws at him. He got sand up [i]there[/i]. That prick! Pink was filled with anger. Because [i]no one[/i] ever fucks with her. Valjean quickly awakened her vindictive side. She turned her body towards Valjean. Her eyes started glowing blue, she activated the primordial power of the sea. She created a jet of water that sprung out from the ocean and shot Valjean across the beach. "[i]Go fuck a sand-castle![/i]" Pink shouted, her Latina accent was apparent. That was over with, she quickly used a bit of water to wash off the sand. She would use water to... flush out the sand. It'd be awkward to do it out here.

Valjean slid across the sand dramatically, landing on his side. He was [i]not[/i] about to let this bitch get away with that. He slammed his fist onto the sand and.... Instead of burying this chick in sand, nothing happened. [i]Aw, fuck. I'm too wet.[/i] He growled in his own head. He was completely [i]drenched[/i] in sea water. Water was the opposite of dry deserts. Which canceled out his abilities. By the time he got off the sand, that Pink haired girl was gone. He wiped the sea-water off his face, and balled his fists. It'd probably also cancel out his scorpion form too. Whatever. He would get even with this chick. In, or out, of that arena. Valjean followed after her. Though he had no idea where she went from the beach.

... Because Pink dipped behind the entrance to the docks and hid there. At least until this prick was gone. It was the first day of school- that she admittedly missed -and she didn't want to leave such a filthy mark on her record this early. Pink listened closely, and waited for his footsteps to pass. Once she couldn't hear him, she sighed and kept it moving. The problem with navigating this school was that her vision was terrible. It was amazing that she could even read a text message that well. Pink had to shuffle her way into the dorms, and find the student lounge. She thought of the fact that she'd have to [i]share[/i] a room. Hopefully she won't be paired with someone awful. Pink stepped into the student lounge, not going to explain how she found it. Here were so many scents going on here. She would need to focus and find that counterpart of hers.... There. Pink followed her nose, smelling deeping, and trailing Ben's scent, until she was standing right before him.

The moisture in the air went up by a very noticeable amount. She thought about the immense size difference between the two. Pink was a midget compared to him, but at least there was a reason for that. "Ben! There you are..." She said to him, refraining from giving him a huge. There was another fellow here, Pink had a very hard time making out his features, but he was tall, muscular, and... [i]Jesus? Is everyone here roided up or something. He's like the eight giant guy here.[/i] Pink didn't know things like the color of his skin, hair, eyes, and so on, because everything was black and white to her. "Sorry, I disappeared on you, this ocean is where I [i]belong[/i]." 

Then there was another scent. Pink could smell it, and it smelled quite strange. She didn't know what it was, which caused her to take some deep sniffs in. Ugh. Pink easily tracked it to a woman that wasn't far away. She was too far away for Pink to make out most of her features, but tall ([i]God dammit![/i]), wore this slutty get up? Pink couldn't tell anymore. Was everyone here tall, muscular, and [i]weird[/i]? Like, she looked like a bloody shark, but at least she was [i]different[/i]. Pink was going to ignore all these strange people for now. She just shot a, "Hi." At Abe.

"So, what's up?" Pink asked Ben, sitting on the side of the pool table, putting her shark-tail across it. Blocking any attempts to play pool.

[i][u]Dana Lucille Allcott, & Asae Sugiura[/u][/i]
[i](Written in collaboration with AgentFallenSoul)[/i]

Asae still mentally felt responsible for their situation, Dana without her chair and both of them stuck in the god damn woods. Carrying Dana was easy enough, but she was still quite shaken up, replaying the chaos in her head, critiquing herself, her sword stance, her reflexes. It was something she was almost programmed to do, if her father had seen her get disarmed, by a mindless bear no less, she would have been beyond punish. Phantom pain seemed to seep into her wrist, remember the punishments of her father for failing to beat the tasks he gave her. He was what people had come to call, a "tiger" father, everything was trash to him unless it was up to his standards, if it wasn't good enough she was met with a million demeaning words said to her face, if she was lucky it would be followed by more training instead of a slap to the face. Before she had met Tetsuya, all she knew was this, and now she was the cause of a injury easily preventable.

"... You ladies need a hand?" A new voice spoke to the pair, coming from the direction of the trees, not too far ahead of them. Dana lifted her head and turned it towards the voice. It was a woman, a strange one. She was at least in her mid-thirties and had an odd icy blue skin-tone. Definitely a sign of being a meta-human. She was beautiful, but calcuated, she was rather youthful. Her hair was a dark black color, and was kept in a long-style. Her eyes were rather blue, and she had a pink tattoo on her cheek. The outfit she wore was a thick black long-coat with a hood (It was down at the moment). She had on matching combat boots, gloves, and she had these cool aviator sunglasses on. Dana could swore she saw something on her hips.... This woman had a cellphone in her hand, which was at her side. Anyone attentive would notice that she was in the middle of a call.

This woman before her really made Dana uncomfortable... She didn't look like the staff at all, and was certainly too old to be a student. Just [i]who[/i] is she? Dana looked around and saw that she was all alone. No Henry. No friends. This woman was just out here? No, no, no. Something wasn't right here. Dana got close to Asae's ear, and whispered, "I don't know about this... something seems strange...."

Asae had stopped in place and held Dana a bit tighter once she heard the voice, instinctly wanting to run and protect Dana at all cost. She obseved the oddfully youthful women, she did have the aura of someone older but Asae had no way of telling how old she actutally is. Her youth and beauty only multiplied with the womens skin tone, an odd blue. What she wore made Asae feel on the fence about her though, it wasn't something she could see a teacher wearing, nor a student in honesty, meaning she was either a very different indivual(Though give she was blue) or she wasn't suppose to be hear. Only then did Dana manage to make Asae feel even more protective, whispering she didn't know the women, she looked down at Dana worried "If this turns into a fight, I'm going to need you to get yourself out of here someway, if you can't Ill run, but if there is some way for you to get away, find Henry and run back to save my ass, I have no faith in my skills as a fighter against her, she has an...off aura about her if that makes sense."

Asae looked up, a stone emotionless face looked at the women "we're fine, thanks for the offer though, but I do wonder what an adult is doing out here on their own, it's none of my business seeing as we are out here as well, but It is odd to see you're not with anyone. Might I ask if you are a teacher or a student or?" she started sizing up the girl, she was going have more then a tough time if the girls powers were ranged of any sort. Not to mention Dana was in her arms, and she couldn't very well drop her, she would have to figure out how to get her safely away if the situation came to that.

The woman quickly saw that they were whispering to each other... She heard what they were talking about just fine. A fight? Oh, no. That wasn't in her agenda. But just in case, the woman shoved the phone against her face, and whispered a message. If Asae was attentive she would pick out "[i]... If I don't call back in five minutes, come find me.[/i]" Before she hung up. The woman took a few steps forward, with her hands up in surrender. "Look, I'm not out here looking for a fight, if that's what you're thinking." She rolled her eyes. "I'm someone interested in the school, that's all you need to know.... But if it really convcerns you, my name is [i]Natalie[/i]." That wouldn't calm them down, but Natalie had a plan. "You're in trouble, and I think I can help you." She pointed back towards the school, "If you want to get back there, go that way."

When Natalie stepped forward, Asae reacted stepping back defensively, hearing prior that she was talking to someone else who was also on the Island. She couldn't know if Natalie was lying, but she wouldn't put her trust in that easily "Forgive me for not being completely trusting of you, doesn't exactly help you were talking to someone on that phone right now that's either close or somewhere on the island." She was however interested in why she was her on school grounds, it raised a number of flags about the headmaster here. She whispered to Dana "Does this school have any enemies that would attack as of right now?" she didn't remove her stare from the women, though if she were going to attack them, she would have most likely already done it instead of talking. BUT as the saying goes, better to be safe then sorry.

"... I'm not going to lie, both are true." Natalie said. Being honest. She was talking about a certain contact that's on this island, but [i]their[/i] business is not with these women. But, they're [i]always[/i] willing to lend a helping hand to the little man. "I understand your [i]lack-of-trust[/i], I'd feel the same if I was in your position." Then Asae whispered something else to the woman she's carrying. Enemies? No. 

The only people Dana could think of who could be '[i]enemies[/i]' of the school would be the rejects that were kicked out for not following the rules. "... I don't know. I..." Dana looked around again. "... If anything goes wrong, just throw me in the bushes...." That was the best way Dana could help. Even if she can't fight, she can find Henry in record timing.

She thought about something else "Have you by chance seen a Lizard man, really big, walking with another group of people? Or a kid about ya high, has a mouth on him?" she would much rather find Henry or even Matt at this time and point, simply because getting told which way would be the way to go from a complete stranger with blue skin, wanted to make her go the complete opposite direction and trace back her steps rather than get ambushed.

Natalie put a finger to her chin, and tapped it a few times. Thinking. "... Sorry, sweetheart. I didn't find anyone that meets your description." Honestly, she wasn't going anywhere with these people. They were scared out of their mind right now... On their toes. Paranoid? Well, it's not [i]unjustified[/i]. She took a few steps away. "Since you gals are fine, I'll just be on my way. Later ladies."

Asae suddenly blacked out and her right hand went to her box, opening it and her sword coming into view "How do you know...how do you know about that name? Were you there? Tell me what you know about me women, and dont dance around my questions, were you there the night Tetsuya was tortured?" by now her sword was out and sat Dana down "Were you there the night I watched my fiance beaten inches from death?!" she took another step, her voice wavered. It wasn't aparent to anyone, but Asae was going through a PTSD like state, her mind recalling a night that happened months ago, she had forgotten it, but the Man that forced her eyes open, watching Tetsuya get stabbed and beaten with metal bars, the man that licked her check calling her sweetheart, his [i]pet[/i] name for her. She was completely out of control of her inner emotion, and this wasn't even herself, but an Asae locked away deep from with in her.

Oh joy, this woman is going yonkers. Natalie turned her head back towards Asae and gave her a glare from the side. She looked bored. "Look sweetheart..." Her hands wandered down towards her hips. "... I've done a [i]lot[/i] of things. You weren't in any of them. So how about you simmer down, and let me walk off." There was definitely something mounted on her hips.

"Asae!" Dana said the second she was put down. She grabbed onto her friend's leg with both arms, intent on keeping her there. Dana was correct when she figured that Asae was in some serious business. She watched someone get tortured...? Jesus, god, that must have been tough. But that wasn't any reason to start a fight with this random woman. People could get hurt, and Dana hated senseless violence. "Put the sword away! You need to stop!"

Asae looked around for a moment "Where the fuck? What happened?" she looked down at her hand and saw her sword drawn again. She slowly put her sword back and looked at her hands, something had happened obviously between the women and her. She reached to pick up Dana again and almost all at once her memory hit her, sending her into a break down, she fell to the ground and started crying "What...why do I remember...why, I tried to forget, I tried...so hard" she reached for Dana's hand to make sure she wasn't losing it, that maybe she was just sleeping, that maybe she was just in some sick twisted dream and she was going to wake up without the memory.

Dana honestly didn't know how to respond. She could chide Asae for her recklessness, or try to comfort her - Ultimately falling on deaf ears. "... Look, Asae...." She looked around, and saw that Natalie woman leaving. Thank God. This all started with [i]her[/i]. "... What happened? Why... Why did you threaten her?" She put her hand on Asae's shoulder.

Asae was quiet, silently crying and her face looking at her sword. The women said something but she couldn't hear, her mind was replying the image over and over again of Tetsuya bleeding. And then Dana asked why...why she threatened her. Honestly Asae couldn't understand herself, because the last thing she remembered was the girl saying sweat heart. As if it was a trigger, another sensation of hate and sadness washed over her and she knew why. She looked at Dana's hand on her shoulder, then her gaze looked at Dana's face "When...when we were in Europe...we had made...a lot of enemies. Tetsuya and I, were and unstoppable duo, we stole from crime gangs and mafia's located all over there. There was one man...who we'll say was the wrong person to steal from. It was a simple grab and go, we had planned to break into his house and steal what he had stolen from us...but he was...he was waiting for us" 

She lifted her shirt, showing Dana a jagged scar cut, not huge but it was a bad one "His guys cut me, and held me at gun point, and Tetsuya...being the guy he was, instantly put his own life on the line for me. We were taken to a werehouse and there, they chained Tetsuya up and...and started beating him. First it was with wooden bats, but they didn't get the disired effect they wanted, so they grabbed metal bars, five of them all lined up taking swings at the same time. I tried...I tired so hard to look away, to break my restraints but a man, he held a knife to my throat and...touched me, licked my face, held my chin up to watch every swing hit Tetsuya. He called me sweetheart, he said that it was his pet name for me and that after they were done killing Tetsuya they were going to make me their pet and use me as they saw fit." she looked away from Dana, disgusted with herself. Her tears started to fall again, the images just wouldn't stop in her head.

[i]I... I....[/i] Dana was suddenly at a loss for words. Things were taking a turn for the worse, and honestly, Dana just wanted to go back home. Last time Dana checked, this woman was as closed off as it gets, but now? She's spilling [i]everything[/i]. She couldn't possibly empathize or understand what Asae went through. She was just a crippled girl that would never amount to anything. Asae? She watched the love of her life get beaten to near-death. "I..." Dana started off, "I can't possibly understand what you've been through." It wasn't the best thing to say, but Dana had a longer speech winded up. "But, you cannot let your past... your demons... Haunt you. Define you. [i]Control[/i] you. Letting that happen is no way to live. Just look at what almost happened here." She pointed a finger in the direction of Natalie. "You lost yourself and almost started a fight with that strange woman. You didn't know [i]who[/i] she was, or [i]what[/i] she could have done. You could have gotten people hurt for all the wrong reasons." Dana began her speech, narrowing her eyes. "I forgave you for cutting me, but I would not have if you started such a [i]senseless[/i] fight." She was giving Asae constructive criticism. "Until you get yourself composed, I refuse to go anywhere with you."

Asae did a laugh through her cry and wiped her face "I'd figure now would be a good time to tell you I blacked out eariler, but thanks for stopping me. It is fine if you do not wish to talk to me, but I made a promise to carry you back home or to Henry, and I cant go back on the promise" she stood up wiping her face and breathing out, for now she would keep her emotions bottled up and use Tetsuya as an emotional pillow later. She picked up Dana again, walking in the direction the women pointed though she hoped they could find Henry, she didn't want to get questioned as to why Dana's wheel chair was gone as well as why she was carrying Dana. She had already broken down, so she wouldn't be all that fit for question from teachers or others.

"Riiiight, smart decision there." Natalie.took her hands away from her hips, and crossed them across her chest. Whatever. Conflict resolved. Long as she didn't get blood on her hands. "I'll be on my way now..." Natalie walked the opposite direction from Asae and Dana. Before the chick flips the fuck out and cuts up a school or something. "Also, advice from woman-to-woman." Natalie put her finger up, "Never draw your weapon [i]unless[/i] you're going to use it." Which is why she didn't draw her own weapons. Natalie put her back to the two, and she was out of their sight. She immediately grabbed her phone and called someone, "... Everything went smoothly, [i]Luís[/i], almost got into a fight but..." The conversation went on from there.
