[IC] Academy of Heroes and Villains

[MarshiestMallow]

Phoebe stood up when no one else chose to go next, slightly nervous. She had never been in a show before, and definitely hadn't been in front of such a large crowd. She decided she had every right to be nervous. She bit her lip as she walked onto the stage. Everyone so far been so good, and that had made her feel as if hers was nothing.

She took a deep breath, and rather then just introduce herself, she got started She moved quickly, forming three large Chlorofiends. She manipulated their designs quickly, so it seemed like they were actually wearing clothes made of flowers over their plant bodies, then she had the music start. She had to concentrate as it did so the large plant monsters were not suited for dancing, and thus needed her constant guidance for their movements. The song was one she couldn't help but wonder about. The way the world was, it could easily happen. [b[big yellow taxi[/b].

As the song went on, Phoebe had the plant monsters move with what she thought of as grief, sadness, and just a hint of being resigned. They moved gracefully, and certainly wouldn't have bee able to do so if she wasn't completely controlling them. Normally, they were just bngs that stumbled about. As the music died down looked down, She didn't think her performance had been anything much, especially after going after Kijani's. But...she thought she had done alright.

Nicholas was probably the only one clapping a be it a few people clapping with him,He found her performance quite entertaining then most of the others which he found stall and boring.After clapping for what seemed like a few mins he sat back down ignoring the girls laughing at him once more because he would get his revenge sooner then he planned.

[Flood]

Flood stood up and clapped for everyone who had gone on stage after him. He sits back down and looks over at Nicholas. 'He's plotting. Good.' Flood gets up and moves to sit next to Nicholas. "What's the plan?"

[Mistress Dizzy]

Kijani sat in the audience as well. She was really rather impressed. Phoebe's dancing plants were an interesting feat. Perhaps if she got some more control, they could make excellent fighting drones. Maybe she could work out something similar with paper... then again, Phoebe's plants seemed to have some will of their own. Paper did not, luckily. She preferred to work with an element that couldn't fight back. As she applauded, she spoke in the direction of the males without looking at them.

"You might want to reconsider any rule breaking on campus. You get caught, and Principal Bats will have your powers sealed. So... don't do it." A smile appeared on her face. "Get caught, I mean. Having no powers sucks."

[MarshiestMallow]

As phoebe headed back to her seat hurriedly, she stopped by the girls. "That's just them dancing. You don't want to see them when they are fighting. Learn some manners, and respect, or better yet, shut your mouths, because there's nothing in your heads besides air that I want to here out your mouths" She said this with no attempt to disguise the underlying threat in her voice. She sat down in her seat, and crossed her arms.

"I doubt there's anything the teachers,or the headmaster, misses throughout the school" She said, musingly, "Except in our dorm rooms and such. tthere's camera's al over the place, right? The girls aren't worth it"

[Klyix]

Sitting in the crowd Kat watched along with everyone else, clapping at the right moments, though some of the acts were lost on her. When Katherin was on stage she heard people behind her mention 'Frozen' which she supposed was related to the act and not just an inane comment on the ice sculpture being created; if so it was clear why she had chosen it. However she was more entertained by the altercation in front of her, with the taunting and threats she could only hope it escalated into something far more interesting. She looked to see if the staff had noticed but they seemed more preoccupied with something else, whispering to each other as a couple ducked out of the room.

"I have something...but it will not be so...obvious..."Nicholas said ignoring the women speaking to them for he has something in mind for the women laughing at him but that would be for much later.

"Sounds fun. I'm in." Flood inserted himself into the plan with little to nor regard on Nicholas' opinion.

"Well will talk about this in private..." Nicholas said standing up to go on the stage for his performance.Once he got onto the backstage he moved pasted one of the teachers Mr.Fries the technology teacher who was watching him for the longest time even when he first got here and the young man wondered if he knew something about him or rather his father.

Once he got onto the stage he stood in the middle of the stage firstly bowing to them even though he found most of the students ugly and deserves to die,From his showman like bow he pulled his arm out showing off his arm that was turning a little green form his new found powers.He then summoned a large Venus fly trap like plant out as Nicholas stood inside of it bowing to the crowd before the planet suddenly snapped on him making them think he was being eaten alive by his own creation.After a few moments the planet spat out some bones thinking that he was dead but unknown to them he appeared a few moments later from a large beautiful and colorful plant opening up to reveal him bowing to the crowd as the light shown the crowd that he was alive and well.

Connor hadn't seen many of the performances, but he had made sure he saw Kijani's. When she was introduced, he'd returned from what he had been doing, and got as close as he could to the stage, watching as she Danced. He did not take his eyes off her the whole time. It wasn't just the way she moved, although that was impressive. It was more the meaning she brought across. Knock me down, but eventually, I'll get up again. He clapped and cheered when it was over, feeling like an age had passed, and wishing he could fight through the crowd to her. As more of the performances were done, Connor reluctantly chose to go after Nicholas. He went upz

For a moment, he just stood there. He realized he was beginning to panic, realized he wanted to run away. But he couldn't do that. Still, there was something different about being in front of a large group of people, when it was just him, and not him in his suit. He reached over to his right wrist, which had some sort of wrist watch on it. He clicked a button, and the mirrors he had suspended from the ceiling changed from the background of the gym, to what he wanted them to show. In this case, what appeared to be a light show. There was a rippling effect for a second or two as this occurred, and he could feel himself relax, as what he wanted happened.

After all, in magic it was all about deception. About distracting your audience, and yet amazing them. For a few quick seconds, he ran his hands over his body, showing that aside from his watch, he had nothing on him. No wires, no tricks.

And then he began to walk, as if he were climbing stairs, and he began to ascend in the air. He looked about, but it was like he wasn't seeing anything, as if he were concerntrating. He walked up about ten steps, and looked over the crowd, standing there, he began to wonder if anyone would figure out just how he did this. Most would assume, he thought, that it was something based on his engerneering abilities. He smiled, almost a smirk. He began to descend. When he landed, he leaped into the air, and appeared suspended as he jumped higher then normally possible. He hung there suspended a moment, before continuing. He dropped to the ground fast, stopping just before he touched the ground, then stepping to the ground. He flung out both hands into the air, and doves were flung in the air, cooing and flying around the room. With each flap of their wings, they seemed to change colours. Red, orange, yellow, green, blue, and more. And in the space of seconds, Connor seemed to have changed clothes. Rather then what he had been wearing, which had been his normal jeans and t-shirt, he now wore what seemed to be a plain white t-shirt, and black pants. He once more took to the air, and when he was nearly to the ceiling, he suddenly fell, and for one heart stopping minute, he feared he had messed up the trick, as the end of the trick didn't seem to come. And then he felt as if he had been through something unpleasant and seemed to bounce. as he landed on it, It was revealed to be a bubble of sorts. But it held him in the air. He stood, carefully, and then Bowed with a flourish, the bubble popping into hundreds of smaller bubbles, floating down wards as Connor slowly descended himself.

[Flood]

Flood chuckled at the horrified look on everyone's face when Nicholas was "eaten". He was impressed by Connor's performance and clapped when that was over.

[KatherinWinter]

Griffin sighed. He didn't want to go onto the stage. He didn't know how he had allowed Zack to talk him into this. He kept his back to the crowd as he carried a large log with him onto the stage. He set the log in the middle of the stage. If anyone one laughs I am kicking your ass. he told his brother. He went back to the edge of the stage and got his chainsaw and chizzle. He carried the two items onto the stage. He set the chizzle onto the stage where he could get it latter. He had choose to create something simple because he didn't want to take hours. He turned the chainsaw on and began cutting into the log. Within minutes a form began to appear beneath the chainsaw. When he had the rough outline done it looked it looked to be almost shaped like a man. Then then he set down the chainsaw and picked up the chizzle. He began adding details with the chizzle. Nearly another 10 minutes passed before he stepped back. The log now looked like a Zack in yeti form. Big dopey grin and all. He picked up his tools and left the stage without once looking at the audience.

[MarshiestMallow]

Kalinda cheer for Griffin, moving to the stage quickly and as she passed him, said "that was awesome!" Before climbing onto the stage. She introduced herself, and then she opened herself to the emotions around her. Happiness, sadness, grief, hatred, anger, resentment...and all the rest. She began to rise with her flight, and to music, which started, "Katy perry, Roar!".she went slow at first, more gymnastics rather then dancing, as if every movement was painful. She had to concerntrate, using her flight abilities and then adding the dancing on top of that, and then the emotions which she used to help fuel her performance. She slowly picked up her speed, graceful and expertly performing her dance in the air, enjoying herself as she did so, and not even looking about her. When the song ended, she fell to the ground catching herseld, and trotted off the stage, fearful that if she stopped and looked about, she might be sick

Nicholas was heading to the door to leave as he had done his part and would escape to his room but to his surprise the door was locked as he tuned around to look around the room of the suspect but calmed down taking a seat unknown to him he was sitting beside someone that would be his partner for some time.

"Hello....that was quite the show i didn't know that you could do such a thing but would expect form the son of Ivy and Scarecrow..." The blonde haired man said with a smile adjusting his tie.

[Klyix]

Wood carving was not an act she had expected and the dance was skillful, but Kats attention was distracted by the sound of the doors. With the interval coming up people were trying to get out before the rush she supposed, but couldn’t, the doors were locked and confusion began to ripple through the room. There was no purpose to locking them in, not if everything was fine, which could only lead her to believe everything was not. The confusion had spread by this point, the announcement of the next act left abandoned while people began to stand and either try to help open the doors or talk amongst themselves in hushed voices. Standing herself, she faintly cursed her outfit choice of the day before stepping away from the seating.

And then suddenly all the doors swung open but the students remained inside when they saw what was on the other side. We’ve been herded. Kat thought as she saw the unknown, intimidating forces step into the gym. There was only a few at each door but it was clear they were capable and no-one would be getting past them any time soon.

Kat calmly looked at each one in turn, a faint shimmer appearing about her fingertips. But she didn’t act, not yet. Instead she watched as an older man walked in, a purple cape hanging from his shoulders and a helmet which only left his face uncovered. “Hello students. I’ve come to have a talk with you.” Said Erik Lehnsherr as he regarded the group before him.

[Eviledd1984]

"I am Reinhardt that is what you can call me....oh i see you have quite a strong little power i have a deal that i want to make with you.." The blonde haired man named Reinhardt said with a slight smile his hands on his lap.His bright blue eyes looking into Nicholas bright green eyes with such a dull look that made Nicholas cringe a little form this.

"Why what do you want?What do you want form me" Nicholas said feeling a killer instinct that had Nicholas on the edge,He was ignoring Erik Lensherr because his mind was on Reinhardt although he wouldn't care what the old man said to them.

[Flood]

Flood's eyes widened as he saw an all too familiar face at the door. S.H.I.E.L.D. drilled him on many villains and there were some that you were to avoid at all costs. Magneto was near the top of that list. He was useless because of his reliance on weapons. He was going to have to pick a good moment if he was going to get out of here alive.

[MarshiestMallow]

Phoebe rose slowly, trying not to draw attention to herself as the people came in. She began looking for Katherin, or anyone else, starting to move through the crowd when she saw her friend. She decided she wanted to be with someone she trusted then and there, and Katherine and herself worked well together in any case. She looked about, disturbed that there wasn't any teachers. What had happened?

As Erik Lehnsherr spoke, she stopped. She spoke up, loud enough to be heard "if you were here for any thing more then a talk, you wouldn't have us trapped here. We maybe still in training, but there are more of us here then you" She refused to let the seed of fear that was flowing through her effect her tone, and she maintained a strong voice. Her only clear thought was to draw attention away from her friends, she knew she couldn't hope to draw attention away from all The students, but she could try.

As soon as it was apparent that something was up, Connor shifted his backpack closer drawing the zipper open, but made no other move to get his suit out. He looked about them, all around the group of students, his eyes calculating as he tried to figure out a way out of here, a way of keeping the students alive and unhurt, a way of...well being a hero.

He didn't have a way out yet, but he would. Eventually. As he continued to look about them, he tried to look meek, unthreatening and as if he wouldn't be trouble. Looks could be deceiving. His eyes landed on Flood, and he half smiled. He began to inch towards himz flood had a habit of having a lot on him, and generally varying equipment. He slung his backpack over one shoulder, and moved through the crowd, tapping flood on the shoulder. "Do you have anything that will blind them for a moment?"

---

As soon as it became apparent that this was not scheduled, and that it was an attack of some sort, Kalinda had disappeared in the shadows. She watched, barely breathing and wondering what was going on

[Eviledd1984]

"We meaning Magneto wants you to join him in his group...to join him why but to take over the school and teach the worthy of the most powerful students and the weak...the weak will expire..." Reinhardt said with a soft smile on his face now looking over at Phoebe and what she was saying before he turned to look over at her,"She would make for a good student don't you think" He added looking over at Nicholas.

"Idiot why did you speak..." He thought grinding his teeth before looking over at Reinhardt with a dull blank look on his face once more,"Do i have a choice if i want to join or not?" He asked wondered if he should stand up and go protect Phoebe a strange thing to do since she is the daughter of the man that took everything away form him in a way.
