Storm was the silver haired woman that had convinced Makoto to leave her home with them. She is a very kind and soothing person but a force to be reckoned with as Makoto observed the woman's interactions with others. It was not hard to see that this individual was very intelligent or that Makoto took a shine to her quite quickly. On the ride over to The Academy it was clear that their powers were similar and Storm showed Makoto that control could be gained with guidance and practice. Storm had encouraged Makoto in great amounts in the short time they were together. Though nervous, Makoto walked with Storm to The Academy's main doors. The pair walked to the nearby office and spoke with the secretary about enrolling Makoto in the school. After a few words, it was decided that with some paperwork Makoto could begin attending class right after lunch.

"Here, I want you to have this." Storm said, turning to Makoto with a smile. Holding out her hand she presented an odd looking device. "It's a cellphone that a few acquaintances modified for me so that it could withstand my own abilities." Makoto looked at it and picked it up, immediately holding it close to her as if it may float away.
"Thank you Storm!" She exclaimed happily, bouncing a little on the spot. "What should I do with it though?" She wondered out loud.
"It's so that we can keep in contact with each other. I should be able to work on a new one within the next two weeks. This way we can stay in touch." Storm explained. Makoto's eye's began to water and without much of a thought she gave Storm the biggest hug she had ever given anyone in a very long time. She so appreciated the kindness Storm had shown her.
"Thank you so much Storm." Makoto pulled away, trying to wipe her eyes in a discrete manor.
"You are welcome, Makoto. Now I suggest you wait over on one of those seats there. Someone will come to show you around. I have to go now." This time Storm smiled a smile that showed she was happy Makoto. The two said their byes for the time and Storm left the building to re join her team.

Makoto sat in one of the seats, waiting for someone to show her where to go next and contemplating this new opportunity. It would be a good time to start over, maybe be someone better than she was before. She could leave the crushing sadness behind her. Maybe someone here could help her with that. With all of this came the question, should she keep her given name or choose a new one?

"Ah, the fact is, I can't turn my empathic abilities off. So I'd be able to win, simply by aiming for you weak spots. Pain particularly" Kalinda said, then flash McCoy a smile "I dont go fighting people, especially those that are...well, unstable at best. Because my own empathic abilities would simply make it horrible for me. And I dislike causing myself discomfort" she shrugged, "may I go?"


Flood just looked at her a bit more intently. "If you say so." He got up and walked out of the classroom. "I'm going to go train at my usual spot. Ask the Principal if you don't know where that is." He left the room and went up to the roof to do his usual routine. 200 pushups, 200 sit ups, the usual things. He usually did these things for an hour.

Bruce was reading reports on yesterday's events. The fact that the school had been targeted was an issue he wasn't satisfied with. They had left the students unguarded, which he had never meant to happen. Perhaps he had overreacted to a threat. and yet he was still unsure how the students were left undefended.

Was there a teacher in the school who betrayed his trust? He pushed the reports aside, and leaned back in his chair. He sighed softly, and rose, starting out his office, figuring to go check on security and see if there had been any glitch in the system yesterday, but along the way, he saw that there appeared to Storm, with a student he wasn't familiar with.

He was about to speak up, when Storm left and the student went over to the chairs. He thought on going over, but the girl seemed nervous, and it wouldn't do to intimidate her.
Phoebe watched the rest of the class as they tackled the rock wall. She knew they all had different levels, different ways of success. She knew the rock climbing had a meaning, a test of their skill and ability to find out a way over obstacles, and she didn't care about what time she had had. She had enjoyed helping out a fellow student.

Was she too nice? Was there such a thing as too nice? She didn't know, and she wasn't going to change simply to get the highest score in class. She took out her phone when she felt it vibrate in her pocket.

there's a new student in the office, who could use a friend.

She blinked, and looked about. She put her phone away, wondering what she could possible do for a new student. She looked to Ryan, and said, "I've been enlisted to help a new student" She smiled, and continued "So i'm going to the office area"

She started out, and was soon at the office. It didn't take long, seconds merely, to figure out that the girl sitting in the seats was the new student. She went over to the girl and said "Hi, I'm Phoebe. You look new" She smiled, hoping to appear friendly. "Do you need a hand?"

Nicholas was watching the other students climbing the rock tower but didn't care and would rather be some place else,One idea or place would be where Reinhardt instructed him to go but that would be for later in the day.He watched Phoebe walk away and watched Reinhardt also watching her with a grin on his face like he was planning something,"Don't even think about it" Nicholas warned him before walking away to follow Phoebe.

Makoto smiled a kind of half smile at Pheobe.

"Yeah, I just got here." she sighed. Standing up she straightened herself out and adjusted her backpack. "I guess you are supposed to show me around?" Makoto inquired. She had nothing to start from. After all, she was here with the clothes she had on her back, the few things she managed to pack in her backpack and Storm's cell phone. She may have left a notebook and pen from school in her bag, but that would only be if she was lucky. Meeting Storm and coming here seemed to her to be the only good luck she'd had in years. Makoto's mind drifted to the events of her childhood and of recent. She gripped the strap of her backpack herder with one hand. Thinking back made her feel like she was going to cry, like a stone had settled in her throat and like her heart was being squeezed so tightly that it couldn't pump blood. "I-... I really don't even know where to begin." she said, trying to force her voice not to shake as she looked out of the class walls of the office to the empty hallways.

Phoebe smiled kindly, and said, "I don't know if I'm meant to, but my F-uh, the head master seemed to think I'd be a good person for the job" She laughed lightly, and was about to continue, when it seemed like the girl sort of spaced out. Phoebe saw the tightening of grip on the bag, and it seemed like she was trying hard not to break down.

What had happened to this girl, to make her seem like this? Phoebe hesitated, and then said "Is everything alright?" She asked, concernedly

Nicholas was watching what Phoebe was doing consoling another girl that he didn't care about but was thinking of why she would care for a stranger that she just met,The young man had his hands folded watching her every movement a thought popping in his head that Reinhardt will come and spy on them or worse try to recruit her.

Makoto turned back to face Phoebe and giggled a somewhat hallow laugh.

"Yeah, I'll be fine." She said, expressing a half smile. Mkoto could still feel the sting of potential tears in her eyes but she wanted to be strong, make most of the opportunity she was given and ultimately make Storm proud of her. "I'm sorry Phoebe, I forgot to give you my name." Makoto paused, contemplating what name to give. "I'm Makoto but please, call me Gale."

Makoto chose this name because it suited her power and it also actually sounded like a legitimate name. The actual definition of the word, violent storm, suited her and her abilities more than she realized. Makoto had a lot to work through and a lot of grieving to compete before she could progress with much of the training that was to come.

"Maybe we should start with a time table?" Makoto asked, thinking back to how her high school was set up in terms of attending classes. This was a school after all.

(3.30 in the morning. Posting then going back to sleep)

Phoebe wasn't too sure that Makoto was alright. But right then, she wouldn't push it. Give her some space, so her the normal reutine of the school and all. Don't freak her out too much. "Alright. Uh. Timetable. Well" since they were still near the office, she grabbed a list of classes. "The only two you need to attend without choice is gym first thing in the morning, after breakfast, and power development after lunch. There's a class after gym, then lunch, and a class after power development. You can choose which classes to go to from here. You have a week to decide your classes" she sounded very offical without meaning to.

"Well. This is the office, you can use the computers nearby to register in classes, as well as registering for a dorm room. There are doubles and singles, and there is probably one or two single rooms left by now. This building has a lot of the classes in it, so let's get you a map too" Phoebe quickly acquired onw, giving it and the class list to Makoto. "Since it would probably take a little while to show you are this building, let's head outside and I'll show you the gym, the cafeteria and the dorms, as well as some other aspects. We have two pools I believe, inside and out. Therese several court yards, grass areas, gardens, uh, science labs, gym type areas for your more physical classes, I'm sure there's a theatre around here somewhere. The school prepares you for both aspects of a heroes or villains life-the normal side and the super side. A lot of students do degrees Here if they are old enough. I'm doing a business degree online, as an example" she talked as they walked, heading towards the cafeteria, "you can get all your meals here, and a good variety of them. Of course the city is close by if you want to do anything there or such. We will come back and have lunch when we've finished the outside." phoebe decided, moving towards the gym "we have our morning class here, and we never know what it invokes. It's a good gym, and a lot of functions are held here" she then started towards the dorms. "We can find an empty room here, and set you up if you like now" she said with a smile. "Sorry. I think my brother has been following us"

What did nicholas want? She had seen him come out the gym too, and follow her, but so far he hadn't stepped up, and spoken. She wasn't too sure what to do.

"Half brother actually. We only meet recently, so I guess it's still a little awkward. Anyway. Do you have any questions? I'll try to answer them. I've been here...jeez, going on 8, 9 months now I guess, and know the school well"

Nicholas kept watching her and the new student that Reinhardt was watching also the two are suppose to watch any students new and old coming along the school,For what reason he did not care but something told him in his gut that they would want Phoebe and besides he wanted to get to know the reason he was the monster he is today.

Kijani did mutter protests as Connor lifted her from the ground, but she wasn't truly in the mood to argue. She wasn't sure when he'd gotten strong enough to lift her like that, either. He'd changed, so much. It was partly her doing, she thought, but she knew she couldn't take credit for all of Connor's maturing. Still, her grandmother's words echoed in her mind. Connor would get what he wanted from her- maturity, confidence, even more- and then he would leave. Maybe he wouldn't mean it, but... Kijani truly couldn't stop her mind from denying the possibiliy.

She didn't speak until Connor set her down in bed. His voice was so soft, somehow hurt. "Connor, you can't stay here... They'll think we're sleeping together, we'll both get in trouble." She shut her eyes and curled toward the wall. "Besides, someone like you would become a great man, no matter the circumstances. It's always been in you. I'm sure no one ever doubted that you would be great." She let out a slow breath, one that shook. "Please go, Connor. I just want to sleep."

--

Devika managed to get the harness on properly, and she watched the wall for some sort of pattern before starting to climb. Slowly, she made her way up, nearly losing her grip twice before making it halfway.

Fury rose up in Connor. Yet he managed to keep his voice calm, collected. He watched as she curled towards the wall, away from him. "Why? So I can leave you to your thoughts, leave you to contemplate the words you parents, your grandmother have said to you, basically saying you are worthless."

He ran his hands through his hair in frustration, "Don't lie. I know that's what goes through your head at least daily. It makes you push people away. Push me away" Slight weariness entered his voice, but was quickly washed away. "You can't help but doubt" If he'd been quick enough when she'd been taken by her grandmother...would she believe what she had said? Was he being too patient? Would trying harder just push her further away?

What was he meant to do?

"It doesn't matter if people have ever doubted I'd be great. I doubted myself. By letting their words get to you, making them mar how you see people, mar you yourself, you're just letting them win. People only seek to destroy someone when they are scared of them. You can't let them, Kijani" he sighed, "I'm not going to go. I'll stay outside the door, only to prevent rumors. But I won't leave" Never.

I've been here...jeez, going on 8, 9 months now I guess, and know the school well"


Makoto followed Phoebe through the school. Looking at the size of the campus as well as all of the many places on the campus. Makoto decided that if her super power is going to be static electricity and goodness knows what else, she should stay away from the pools until she can control it. She figured that maybe the library and gym may be a place that would be the safest for her. Finally the two arrived at their end point so it seemed, the dorms.

"That would be great." Makoto responded, her smile beginning to brighten. "I do have a few questions. First of all; wow, this place is so much bigger than it looks. I think i'll stay away from the pools though... um, are there any health science kind of courses here?" Makoto looked around, mildly wide eye from taking in the whole experience. She also looked around for Phoebe's brother. "It's cool that you have a sibling though, even if he's a half-sibling, i'm an only child. Why on earth would he be following us?" Makoto thought she saw movement and tried to wave in that direction, though the idea of family brought her back to a melancholy state of mind. "If it helps, he is allowed to join us." Makoto suggested.

It was going to be a big change but she hoped that maybe Phoebe and her could be friends. It would be a good first step at starting a new life, turning a new leaf. She began to think of finding a safe place or someone around to show her how to potentially use her powers. Makoto found her self both struggling to get up the will to tackle the world ahead of her but at the same time excitidly making goals for herself. She had to remind herself to take a breath and take it all one step at a time.

Phoebe smiled, pleased to try and be able to answer the questions. "Well, I imagine there would be. You can ask at the office, or have a look on one of the computers" She said, "But I'm pretty sure there is such courses offered" She glanced about as well, then shrugged, "I really don't know why. It could be he just wants to talk...." She said musingly. "I haven't had much of a chance to really interact with him. I don't know what I'm suppose to do" She managed not to continue talking and just spill everyone on someone new.

"In any case, if he wants to join us, he will" She headed inside the girls dorms, "I know where a free room is, actually" Sue...I hope everything is alright, with you. The thought of her friend out there, saving the world made her smile. One day, she'd be out there too. "The student that had it graduated a little while ago, and I'm sure no one has taken it" She lead the way, and continued speaking. "I think we can do anything with the rooms as long as we don't destroy them. They're quite nice. Here we are" She nudged the door open, pleased to find it empty still.

"Here we go" She said, and smiled at Makoto.

Kijani flinched at the pain in his voice, at the hidden anger. She was hurting him- she was [i]hurting[i/] the one person who cared. Her body shook as she listened to him. He was right. He had always been utterly smart, and he saw through her like she was made of glass. Kijani wasn't sure that she wasn't, lately. She felt brittle and hollow, like she could crumble at a touch... Trying to force away the pain, she whispered. "Connor, I... I'm sorry for... for who I am." She waited until he left, before taking a small bottle from her desk drawer. She dry swallowed the sleeping pill before curling back up in bed and trying to fight the tears, waiting for sleep to pull her down.

Watching as the students climbed it crossed Kagerou's mind that she should get profile sheets on them all. Before too long she was going to be teaching them in one fashion or another. Part of the fun is figuring out their abilities though. Still she would need at least a list for attendance.

Through her musings it didn't take much to notice that several students were leaving. Only one seemed to have permission to do so. Making a mental note Kagerou resolved to fix that behavior.

Katherin studied the wall. She was pretty sure that she wasn't going to make it too the top. Her hands were sweating as she approached the wall. Things started well. She found hand and foot holds. She had even managed to catch herself a couple of times. She was pleased with her success. She thought she might even reach the top. But then something strange happened. The sweat on her hands turned to ice. Startled Katherin lost her grip and fell. "Well that went to better and worse than I thought."

Connor sighed heavily when he shut the door, and slid down to rest against the wall, dropping his head into his hands. If he could, he would hunt down those that had hurt her. If he thought it would do her any good, he would.

But he wasn't too sure if he'd be doing it for himself or not, so it wasn't a good choice. He glanced at the time. The only reason he had left the room was because he knew that she wouldn't sleep, wouldn't take a tablet if he was there. Having never taken sleeping tablets, he wasn't too sure how long they'd take to work.

He took out his phone, and tried to occupy himself. But couldn't. I wish I knew what to do. How I could help. What I'm suppose to bloody do to combat a life time of being told that she is worthless... Because he couldn't stand sitting there, he rose, and opened her door, going back in.

He stayed silent, and walked across the room, towards the bed, towards Kijani. Since he wasn't too sure if she was asleep or not, and he didn't want to wake her, he gently tucked the blankets over her, and carefully sitting down, so as not to disturb her.

"You never have to be sorry for who you are, with me" he whispered, "Never"
Kalinda stayed in the gym, but didn't interact with anyone else. Why fight, when she could observe. Find weaknesses. And use them. She watched the rest of the students climb the wall, and as Katherin climbed the wall, nearly reaching the top and slipping, she flicked a hand. Shadows, slightly solid, formed to cushion her fall. No sense in letting a classmate get hurt for no reason. And Katherin seemed genuinely nice.

With mild amusement, Kalinda rose, figuring that was everyone done, and headed out the gym. She found somewhere where she could practice the teleportation she had done yesterday. Trying to figure out how to replicate it.

Jack looked at the wall and laughed. "Really? Alright whatever. "He said clambering up the wall not grabbing the handholds. He did not need to. His powers made it easy. He went up without trouble and fired his webs to get down and landed next to Katherin. "Need some help? Also we need to talk about well us really. "He said helping her up.
Ryan had difficulty with the climbing. He fell a few times but eventually used his strength to get up the wall. He then sat on the bleachers and waited.
