[IC] Academy of Heroes and Villains

[knight125]

Anthony leads Ben to his car and quickly drives to his house. Once there, he tells Ben to follow him, and walks to a large hill about 500 yards behind his house. At the base of the hill, Anthony turns to Ben and says, "If you ever somehow get inside here while I'm not present, don't even attempt to enter the lowest chamber. It's sealed off from the rest of my lab, and if I'm not there to give speak the correct password, the security measures will kill anyone on the premises that isn't me." He begins walking up the hill, when a large opening appears in front of him. He leads Ben inside, and the hill closes behind them, leaving no trace of the entrance.

Ben looks around at the high tech lab that surrounds him and asks, "How did you afford this? Your dad fund it?"

Anthony chuckles as he walks to the right side of the lab and searches various compartments, "As far as the IRS is concerned, I'm a very successful real estate agent. My father had nothing to do with this."

Ben frowns as he waits for Anthony to finish whatever he was doing, and asks warily, "So what else do you do"

Anthony walks back holding

this

.

He frowns as he sees the apprehension in Ben's face, "Don't ask questions you don't really want to know the answer to, Benjamin." Anthony holds out the venom milker to Ben and says, "This is a rather crude way of doing this, but it's also the fastest. Simply bite the film over the top."

Ben does as he's told, and a thin, slightly green liquid begins to fill the cup. As the liquid near the top of the container, Anthony says with amazement, "Alright, stop now." He takes the milker away from Ben and looks at the liquid with interest and asks rhetorically, "How on Earth are you able to give out so much venom with just one bite? This shouldn't be possible!" He walks away from Ben and places the venom in a suitable storage space, and says, "Come on, let's go. After my date with Sue, I'll analyze it."

Having had plenty of time to examine the outside, Estella determined that there wasn't any compartments or things that could be open. She turned her attention to the inside and began to feel around for anything that might come loose. A couple parts came off but there didn't seem to be anything of interest. At least not to Estella. Wires and electronic parts. She tried pulling at the back panel where she had rested her head and it moved slightly. Pulling at it didn't get it open. It had been damaged from the landing and she lacked the strength to free it.

[Mistress Dizzy]

Kijani packed up after class was over, wondering what Mimic meant by getting dirty. She didn't have high hopes, at all. After all, she was still without her powers and would be for several more days. At least she could work on her swordplay. She headed to the weapons class and signed out a sword, practicing in the yard to burn off stress. She knew it would be time to meet Connor soon enough, and she was oddly nervous.

---

Devika wondered what she was going to do, with all this sudden time on her hands. The rest of the students seemed to have vanished with their friends or had other plans. She really hadn't had time to get any of that going yet. "Hmmm... Wonder if the library has DVDs."

[twave]

(There is a staff meeting. No more classes for the day. )

[knight125]

(Thank you t2wave)

[MarshiestMallow]

"If you didnt get the joke, then you are naive, not ignorant of things" kalinda said with a shrug, "what will you two be doing while there are no classes? Staff meeting. I wonder why they called it during class times" of course, they could normally do it during class times, kalinda didmt know.

Once connor arrived in town, He made his way to a few shops. More flowers. What could he say? His mothers teachings had been ingrained into him since he could walk and talk.

He had the flowers set aside to pick up on his way back. Next, his clothes really were too casual to go on a first date. So he picked up some clothes, using the incredible knowledge of the shop assistant to pick out a nice shirt, and long black pants. She recommended a nice pair of shoes as well. Connor looked dlwn at his worn trainers, and then nodded.

And then a hair cut. His hair had been getting a little long, and he had promised his mother he would avoid becoming "scruffy". So he had his hair cut a bit, but not a lot. Then he headed back to pick up the flowers. He handed the bicycle off to a kid, then took out his suit, setting down flowers and bag of clothes, he put it on, feeling better and better.

"Sir?" Ignot sounded hesitant, at least to Connor.

"Its Connor, Ignot"

"Where have you been, connor sir!"

"Long story" he picked up his purchases, all from local independent stores. Connor liked to support the little guys, "lets fly!"

He headed back to the school, landing just outside the male dorms, he would have liked to indulge a bit more in flying, but that would have to wait, he removed his suit, letting it fold back up, and into his dorm room.

He showered, dried his hair since it was cold outside, changed into his new clothes, which actually fit perfectly. He put on the new shoes, still wearing mismatched socks. He shrugged into his jacket, then looked at himself in the mirror.

somehow, you still look geeky he thought to himself, then laughed, oh, sure, dressy geeky, but still geeky

He finishedup his attire by putting on a watch, silver and bulky, it was quite useful. At least, he hoped it would be. This was his first time wearing it.

He checked the time. Still little while to go. Perfect
. He was suddenly incredibly nervous. He hadn't been all afternoon, and now he was. He sat down on his bed, took a few deep breaths.

What would any teenage boy going on their first date feel like? He wondered. Than shook his head. He stood, picking up his pack, and the flowers.

Sometimes, he thought, as he headed out, his was lucky to be normal, between his mother and her views on what was gentlemanly, and his father, who well, was his father. He locked up.

"Zack has no calmed down yet. I will most likely walk until he does. I don't like making decisions without him." Griff said with a shrug. He didn't know much about how the school schedule worked, he had never needed to pay attention to such things.

[MarshiestMallow]

Kalinda frowned, "well, I'm thinking about a night in, movie and popcorn" she shrugged, "Bens busy, devika doesnt seem interested in being friends, you don't want to make decisions without zac, and none of the other students have really given me the time of day. So a night in it is" she shrugged, picking up her pack.

[KatherinWinter]

Griffin frown. He felt like he had let her down some how. Hesitantly Griffin asked "Can...I join you? I do not wish to be alone. I have not watched many movies it would be an interesting change of pace."

[MarshiestMallow]

Kalinda stared at him, somewhat shocked. Someone actuslly wanted to hang out with ner? First Ben asking questions, and seeming genuinely interested, now this?

"Wow. Uh, Sure" she said, "that would be nice"

[KatherinWinter]

Griffin was glad she agreed. He was looking forward to spending more time with Kalinda. No one had caught his attention before. "Thank you."

[MarshiestMallow]

"What movies do younlike? Or betrer question since you said you haven't seennmany, what things do you like? Maybe I can work out a good movie from there" kalinda said

"Ummm.... I do not know what I like. I have never thought about it. I guess I like hunting, fast cars, and animals." Griffin replied uncertainly.

[Dioxide]

Sue

Class was cut short, and after the spectacle that she witnessed, Sue was still beat and tired from all the excitement and worry. She was almost glad that she didn’t have to go up against Mimic again, with the suspension of classes for the day. She picked up her bag and left for her room, not knowing that Anthony and most of the others had already gone by the time she had readied.

She was near the dorm when she remembered her missing friend Phoebe, the girl that decided to leave for her mother. Sue really missed her, and honestly if she had to make herself feel better she would force herself to believe that she should be happy for Phoebe, that she finally could see her mom. But Sue could not help but feel selfish and selfishly miss Phoebe. She had wanted to pass by Phoebe’s room again, but felt that it would only be a downward slope of unhappiness. She continued up to her floor, not looking back.

She entered her room and decided to clean it up for once. She could swear she smelt something funny amongst the pigsty of a bed. She gathered her clothes into a corner for cleaning later on. She picked up her trash and, in a bag, threw them out in a collection dump along the hall. Her room looked nicer and more spacious for once. She did not remember it being like this. Fortunately, or unfortunately, she was not allowed the pleasure of windows – having to rely on artificial light entirely. But now her light bulbs were going dim and she needed to make reminders for herself to get it changed, among other things she needed to do. She got busy, and even in the cold winter she was working up a sweat.

She now done, she collapsed onto her bed and breathed deeply. She, however, would not sleep. She needed to be awake and prettied up by the time Anthony came. She remembered her date, and she wanted to see loverboy.

Her eyes shot wide open, trying to figure out what she could wear for tonight. She looked into her closet and her heart almost dropped when she saw nothing but hangers.

She would ask her friends for help, but she had no idea where they’d be.

”Oh God” she thought to herself.

She dove into her pile of clothes and fished out whatever she could. She was panicking. She pulled out everything she could, ruining her hard work of cleaning up the past two hours, and found nothing worth wearing.

She found something that could work, but she didn’t know what they would be doing so she didn’t want to come up short.

She never got Anthony’s number on her phone. She was scared.

[knight125]

Anthony and Ben arrive at the Academy, and Once Ben exits the car, he immediately speeds back home.

Ben, not knowing exactly where Estella's shop was, just say on a bench in the middle of the main courtyard, hoping she'd walk by.

Once home, Anthony takes a quick shower, shaves, and gets dressed. By the time he got back to the Academy, he had nearly twenty minutes to get to Sue's dorm. Knowing that it takes him ten minutes when walking at his normal pace, he walks much slower than usual. After fifteen minutes, he arrives at Sue's door two minutes early. He gathers his wits, then knocks on the door.

[twave]

It takes Estella a liter while to notice that Ben was waiting for her. She stopped trying to pull back the seat and headed out to get him. Stepping out she waves to him Ben, over here!

[knight125]

Ben sees Estella and walks over to her with an embarrassed smile, "Hey, I forgot to ask earlier where your ship actually was."

[twave]

Oh. I didn't think about that either. Sorry. she lead him back to her ship. Here it is. I didn't find anything outside but you can look of you want. I think the seat can move but I can't make it go.

[MarshiestMallow]

"Hm. I guess we will see what I have then" kalinda said, starting out of the classroom

[twave]

Autumn looked at Jensen after the class was dismissed. "What have we gotten ourselves into?" she gets up and heads out of the class with Jensen. "I wonder what everyone does here once class is out."
