Drew Sanders



"Hey who are you calling small?" the brunette shrieked, struggling in Drew's grasp. She glanced down at her with a frown, followed by a disappointed sigh.

"Ah, what a shame. And you were such a tiny muffin too… Or maybe like a cute little brownie or something."

Drew then released Arya from her long arms and shuffled back a bit, rubbing the back of her neck. She let out a small laugh, accompanying it with an awkward smile. "Guess you're not a fan of hugs, huh… That's saddening."

Clearing her throat, Drew straightened herself, attempting to introduce herself 'properly'. With a beaming smile on her face the girl would start all over again, this time in a much more formal manner.

"Ehem… So, again, name's Drew. You two Astra born too or?"

Before they could reply the girl would again interrupt herself. "Oh, and your names, too? Since we have the time we might as well converse in some way or another, right?"

Arya picked herself up, trying to compose herself after the surprise hug. "My name is Arya, Arya Lightwood. And he..." she gestured at Jacob, who raised a hand, still grinning at Arya "is my twin brother, Jacob. We're from Polaris. We used to live in Astra but..."she halted, choking back a sudden spurt of emotion. Jacob's grin dissapeared and his face vanished behind his book again. "Well, stuff happened. We prefer not to talk about it." She finished, looking to the side, her hand gripping her side. "How about you? I'm guessing this is your first year, judging as we've never seen you before."
Meanwhile, Jacob watched Drew quietly, taking in her aura. "She doesn't look to be threatening, despite being so tall." He thought to himself. "In fact, her aura looks similar to Arya's..." He was probably intruding on Drew's privacy by examining her aura, but it had become habit to him after his and Arya's years of wandering. It had saved them from a lot of trouble, and from trusting the wrong people.

As his female, fellow faculty member sarched the grove insearch of the student named "Yoru Noyuki", Hephaestus circled around "The Blight", searching for the anomaly that had caused the turbulence from before. His ship was his one connection to his past, the one relic that tied him to the world, and if anyone wanted to screw with his sentimental piece of machinery, then he was going to screw them with a taste of the Void. He reached the end of the port side, and started to search the starboard side, instantly finding the anomaly latched upon a "Propulsion" Glyph along one of the small wings. A disgruntled look on the teacher's face appeared when he finally understood the reason for the turbulence, a orb of vile purple appearing above his right shoulder. Whoever made THAT pile of Runic trash wasn't going to be ever getting it back. With a twitch of his brow, the ball made of the vile substance from the Void shot towards the anomaly, enveloping it and utterly annihilating everything within.

It's purpose achieved, the Void orb dissipated into the air, only the Aeon used for it's Manipulation returning to Nevada. The area where the anomaly was became spotless and new, as if nothing had been there in the first place. With a grunt, Hephaestus walked back towards the entrance of his airship, wondering whether or not he should tell his fellow teacher what he had found. It didn't seem quite that important to him, but maybe it would be for the bespectacled woman. There was one thing for sure: the armored male was going to have to pick up the next students, not her.

"Thanks i appropriate that...the name is Fredrick...nice to meet ya.." The undead man said putting his hand out nervously so she could shake it. The undead was looking her over wondering why she was being so nice to him,Being a bit specious of her actions since the last time he trusted someone he was nailed to a make shift cross for four weeks.

"So are you a teacher or a student here?" He asked her looking over over mostly staring at her tail.

"I guess they're here." Yoru says as he hops down from his tree branch, as he landed he saw someone else right in front of him.

"You must be a acquanted to the school." He continues as he looks at the teacher infront of him.

I see Meliona gesture for me to follow but I shake my head only to retreat further into the darker part of the corridor. I watch and I listen to the conversation.

Although she wouldn't mind having a friend she wasn't one to get close enough to a person to be called a friend. Maybe she just needed to stop worrying about everything and at least try to make friends, but for now she will just stay on the shadows for a little bit longer

Drew Sanders



"My name is Arya, Arya Lightwood. And he... is my twin brother, Jacob."

Drew's eyes sparkled at the mention of the surname. "Lightwood? Aw, that's a nice name… Lucky you didn't get stuck with a boring name like Sanders or something."

Drew swivelled her head around to see if anyone was eavesdropping. For, you know, reasons.

"We're from Polaris. We used to live in Astra but... Well, stuff happened. We prefer not to talk about it."

Ah… This was bad. Maybe she'd gone too far. Maybe she'd struck a sensitive nerve. Dammit, and she was doing so well too! Why did she have to ruin the convo with such a touchy question?

"How about you? I'm guessing this is your first year, judging as we've never seen you before."

"Uh… yeah. It is my first year," averting her gaze to the wall instead and keeping a small smile. "Astra born and Astra raised. Um, sorry about that, Arya. Didn't meant to, you know, er…"

In no way did she want these two siblings to feel uncomfortable. Sure, her voice had lowered to the point where she sounded like her father after a kicking too much monster butt a decrepit middle aged man, but she wasn't going to let something like this ruin the vibe! Returning to her much brighter self, Drew began to ask questions that would hopefully not kill their self esteem.

"Well, I guess you guys must be second years, right? Or third years? You must know some pretty powerful magic by now. What were they called again… Disciplines, wasn't it?"

Hana nearly screamed as Yoru appeared from the trees, instinctively slicing her fingers with her nails, and Sealed the teen into an already prepared Seal within her pouch. To her, it seemed to her like he appeared out of nowhere, but if only she had looked upwards while searching for the student, then she might not have overreacted as much as she did. When she finally calmed down, and understood what she did, she blushed in embarrassment and nearly kicked herself for accidentally assaulting a student in panic... Again. The Seal she had put the black haired teen within was securely locked, and she didn't have her 'key' to unlock it for him. She looked around the clearing, as if looking for someone that could have seen her mess up within the trees, and silently walked back to the airship. If she got lucky, then Hephaestus wouldn't notice a lack of a new student within his airship.

Entering the airship once more, any student that had been watching her would have noticed that she came back without a student. The ramp was raised, the door shut, and the airship was on it's way through the sky once more. As the female teacher sat in her seat, Hephaestus gave her a look. A single look. He knew. Hana chucked sheepishly, not making eye contact and looking away. He let out a sound, half-chuckle, half-laughing, and takes hold of the steering wheel as she shook his head. The next stop was the Halachstin's, and he hoped that they were ready, because they seriously needed to get in and out of that sector as quick as they could.

Meliona had an almost unnoticeable frown as she watched the young vampire slink deeper into cover. Didn't the kit want to meet someone like her, someone that was shunned by the world around them? Or was she afraid that he would reject her like the rest? Internally, the kitsune shook her head, saddened by the hurt souls of the world around her. The teacher was always disappointed by the prejudice that humans exhibit, always thankful for the kindness of her fellow teachers. She took the zombie's hand, shaking it almost gently as she answered his question. I'm a teacher here f-for "Dazzling the Universe", and "A Crash Course on the Continued Existence of Nevada". The brunette gave Fredrick a warm, gentle smile, feeling his discomfort and wishing for it to disappear. "I-if you study at this Academy, then I'll be seeing you in my class."

"Look, they're here." Lillian said before pointing at the airship closing to their house. It was as magnificent as they remember it to be. They had only ridden it at certain times of their school life but it was always an experience for the both of them but the one who was excited the most was Ulrich. Given that the airship was being kept afloat by using glyphs, it's no wonder the boy who used runes as his speciality would be amazed.

"I'm excited." Ulrich said with a grin before lowering his hood and then waving at them. He wasn't sure if they could see them but he didn't seem to care. He guessed that the same people would be greeting them. Ms. Hana, his instructor in his creation class and Hephaestus, Lillian's instructor in her destruction class. Ulrich could confidently say that he freely talks with his instructor when they see each other but he can't say the same for Lillian. She seems to be talking to Hephaestus at certain times but ignore each other at other times. Well, one shouldn't really expect a tight knit friendship between a student and a teacher.

As they neared the house of the Halechstin family beneath them, Hephaestus stopped Hana from getting out of her seat to greet the two students. "You can't go out there", the armored man said firmly, not looking at the female teacher as he steadied the airship for pickup. The bespectacled woman only sighed, giving a slow nod of agreement as she leaned back into her seat. The Creation Control teacher was too popular within this side of Astra, and would be swarmed with paparazzi in seconds of leaving "The Blight's" doors. They were on a tight schedule, and had wasted too much time trying to find Yoru Noyuki within the grove. The aging, black haired man gave the controls to his fellow faculty member, stepping out of the cockpit and opening the doors of his airship. The ramp lowered itself to the ground as Hephaestus continued his walk towards the two students, his armor clanking with each movement and his face in it's ever present deadpan. Stopping a few feet from the two, he looked over the two students, more his own than the other, and finding no problems within their person. A light gleam arose within his eye as he locked Lillian with a look, then he turned and gestured with a raised hand for them to follow. No words needed to be said. They would meet again within the "classroom" at a later date.

It would be no surprise to not see Hana herself out there, considering where they were. Inside the city proper itself where everyone knew of her achievements. Even so, Ulrich was quite disappointed to see the armored man exit "The Blight" to fetch them. He saw him looking at his sister, probably sizing her up. Three years, they've been together in a classroom to make sure that Lillian wouldn't go out of control and destroy herself and many other things around her.

"It's not like I would lose control in a short span of time Sir Hephaestus." Was what Lillian said before following the armored teacher inside the airship. It didn't seem like she was hoping for a response from her teacher, rather, she just wanted it to get out. Ulrich shook his head and snapped out of it before following, his flying ball familiar following him.

Once they had entered, they settled themselves in their seats and waited for the arrival at the academy. Their second and third year at the academy. No wonder they weren't going to be especially surprised with anything the academy can throw at them. Well you know, in theory.

As the Halechstin siblings entered the airship, Hephaestus started to retract the ramp. "Ms. Halechstin", the teacher started, reaching for the doors and closing them shut. His voice was a calm sea, filling the air between master and student. "If I believed you would lose control, we wouldn't be having this conversation." It was a fact. Should any of his students show any signs of losing control, the armored adult would send them to the Void before they could unleash it. The Void did not differentiate. It swallowed everyone and everything within it's path, user of it or not. "With two years of teaching under your belt, I have no doubt you can contain yourself." Hephaestus' deadpan voice was very unconvincing in the attempt of comforting the young adult, and would have probably made the situation worse had Hana not barged out of the cockpit to hug her student.

"Hi, Ricky! Welcome back!" The perpetually happy teacher was smothering Ulrich with her hug, but she didn't really notice. Hana, known as Ms. Juniper by her students, loved each and every one of her students as her own, and would readily show public displays of affection for them. The others on the ship who took her classes snickered as they watched the teen get glomped by a woman twice his age. Letting go of the poor boy, she held him out at arms length, and gave him a wide smile. "Did you miss me? Because I certainly missed teaching you!"

"I think that you would be my teacher since i am taking Existence.." Fredrick said looking at the kitsune.She could feel his cold hands against her own,He didn't know how to feel when she was getting all touchy feely with him."Well i wonder if i did take your class you can teach me all that you know?" The undead man said to her looking into her eyes.

Lillian let out a hollow chuckle. "You should really work on that reassuring tone sir. I feel like some new students wouldn't feel cozy with that." She pointed out. Three years ago, Hephaestus wasn't her teacher but she felt like he was a better teacher than the other. She never did know what happened to him. She then saw the other teacher exited the cockpit. Lillian knew that her close proximity with her brother would end up with her getting knocked off so she stepped aside, letting Ulrich handle himself against his teacher. Although it did bring a small smile to Lillian's face. After all, if she can't enjoy the blessings and curses brought by feelings, then it made her even a little bit happy to see that Ulrich is having a blast with them.

Well, Ulrich wasn't quite surprised about Ms. Hana's sudden gesture. He braced himself for the hug so he would avoid falling over. Thanks to the impact, his hood was thrown off and the blush could be seen. He was doing it out of embarrassment, mostly because he could just feel the others looking at snickering at him. This was his first time being greeted like that inside the ship. But he did smile. "Heya Ms. Hana." He said before he was put at arms length and then nodded. "I did! I missed you teaching me about more complex runes!" He then leaned in closer. "So how's your love life ma'am?" He asked, his voice was low so no one else could hear him. He decided to tease her a little bit.

Glad to switch subjects, Arya's expression brightened as she answered "Yeah we're second years. Our discipline is Existence control, with my elements being Fire and Lightning. I use this to control it." She patted the runed stave that was strapped to her back with a thin leather strap. Jacob then spoke up, saying "And I control Air and Soul. Arya and I have practiced combining our powers to do even more powerful stuff, but we still haven't mastered it..." He trailed off, remembering the disaster that was their last attempt at it, they having nearly destroyed a nearby forest in the process with a tornado of flame. He hoped they could practice some more in the controlled environment that was the school, and obtain better control of it. But Arya didn't seem overly concerned about it, as usual, and continued. "And how about you, Drew? What's your discipline?"

i watch as Meliona and what seemed like some sort of undead guy talk. i soon realize that the guy is a student at the academy. i begin to wonder what class he would be in but it seems like Meliona was one step ahead of me as i hear the student say that he is taking the existence class which means that they are both taking the same class so they would probably be in the same room. As this realization sets in i move further back slightly only to trip on a piece of stone and falling flat on my face.

"Ow..." i mutter as i forget were i am for a minute before getting up into a sitting position knowing that there was no use hiding now, with the amount of noise i had just made there would be no way they hadn't heard it. If anyone looked at her closely they would see a few scratches on her face bleeding lightly. If they looked at her she would wave a long taloned hand and smile widely giving anyone who would look a very toothy grin.

The moment Hana heard her student say "love life", the teacher's smile chipped slightly. "Oh... It's okay... I guess...", Ms. Juniper replied, her smile slipping off of her face as her thoughts wandered to said "love life". Multiple attempts to try and get the Headmaster's attention as discreetly as possible have led to several counts of injuries, property damage, assault, and arson. What that means is: She hasn't gotten the courage to ask him out yet. He just seemed so far away from her, despite her achievements within the Invoker community. It was like comparing a rising star to the sun, where the star tries so hard to shine as brightly as it can, while the sun always outshines everything else without even trying. There were the other two teachers as well, but she wasn't interested in either of them at all. One was too old, and the other was too young, despite the younger's complementary personality. Plus, Heffy was borderline asexual, while Gill was dealing with his own love problems. The woman let out a long sigh, wondering why Chaos Theory was so easy to her when it was complicated to others, but she couldn't even tell someone that she loved them.

"Heh.", the armored adult let out an unnatural, single sylable chuckle. Hephaestus didn't really mind if people weren't reassured by his way of speaking. If they didn't understand an affirmation when they saw one, then that's their problem. He gives Lillian a short wave, heading back into the cockpit to get the airship moving again. The Halechstin siblings weren't the only students to be picked up in Astra, and there still was Gaia and Hellios to drop by for the minority students of the Academy. The day wasn't over by a long shot, and students were awaiting the sight of "The Blight" within the blue sky.

"Ummm... I-I don't teach the Existence Control Class, M-Mr. Fredrick." The old Kitsune was quite flustered now that she actually had the zombie's undivided attention, internally hoping that he would just go back to half-ignoring her like the Undead did before. "T-That was just the t-title of my class, I-I actually teach History, which I will still be s-seeing you in, but M-Mr. Greenhorn is the Existence Control teacher. ", Meliona explained tentatively. The titles for the classes were made by none other than Hana Juniper, and constantly confused new students who joined their Academy. Thankfully, no one has accidentally entered the wrong classroom... Yet. The brunette would have explained more, but heard a sudden 'thump' coming from where the young Josephine was. Taking a glance at the vampire's position, she noticed that the kit had a few scratches on her face, as if she had fell, and gained and a happier smile as the red-eyes girl finally chose to wave towards Fredrick and herself. Finally. Hopefully, these two little kits would get together and become friends, like she had with Hana and Anna.

Ulrich noticed that his teacher started to think of it seriously. "You're way too obvious Ms. Hana." He pointed out. It was obvious that her love life wasn't even the slightest bit 'okay'. Well technically, a boy like him shouldn't really be prying but Ms. Hana really helped him a lot at his time in the Academy and he really looked up to her, probably more than any other student here. Growing up in Astra and learning about runes, one could easily look to her as an example. Achieving something at such a young age. Ulrich gave her a pat on the shoulder. "If you need any help with that, I'm right here. You know, as thanks for everything you've done." Was he really just trying to help someone more than twice his age with her love life? Yes, yes he was. Could he really do anything? He isn't exactly sure but it's the thought that counts right?

Lillian let out a silent giggle, hiding it behind a closed fist to make it look like a cough or something. She replied his small wave with a nod and her teacher disappeared into the cockpit. They shared a few words here and there but it was always a ride. His attitude makes him unpredictable really so the young Void user really did find their meetings interesting. Besides, it wasn't everyday you get to meet the Dread Corsair, unless you were a student at the Academy, and there was even lesser chance to talk to him unless you were a direct student of his. She then eased to her seat beside the window and then continued to look out, admiring the scenery outside with a neutral look plastered on her face.

DREW SANDERS



"Woah, Fire and Lightning? Air and Soul too?" Drew exclaimed, astonished at their rather exciting Disciplines. "That must pack quite the punch!"

"And how about you, Drew? What's your discipline?"

Although it didn't sound as cool as Arya's and Jacob's, her Discipline wasn't something to be looked down upon either. The fact that she used in a much more creative way would hopefully bring some light to her bland sounding Discipline. With a bright smile, Drew pointed a finger towards herself.

"My Discipline is Metal."

A Discipline passed down from generation to generation, strictly taught and creatively used. This was what the Sanders family was known for; and it would eventually become what Drew was known for.

"I mean, it's not as boring as it sounds. It's pretty useful, actually. Like, you can make all sorts of stuff from it, but only if you have a lot of Aeon in your system to back you up. I would give a demonstration now, but I don't want this airship plummeting to the ground after being hit with a gazillion of my swords!"

Drew's laugh continued to echo across the room as she clutched her wrenching stomach. She then swivelled around to face the siblings again, this time with an extremely worried look in her eyes.

"A-Ah, but don't get the wrong idea, though! I wouldn't go so far as to bring this entire ship down for some simple demonstration. Heck, I don't even think I'm allowed to be doing those sorts of things up in here! Plus, as of now, I'm only able to create around a nintey-nine swords at one time without exhausting all of my Aeon, so I'm basically an untrained peasant compared to my mother… Oh, but it's not just swords I can make though. Us Sanders usually go for moulding stuff into swords, shields and armour, so we've got a bit more variety."

That drawn out piece of speech was bound to send Arya's and Jacob's heads spinning.
