IC: Sky High College

[gagonthis]

I'm writing this initial one for Dragonlady
See the OOC thread here for more information: Sky High College OOC

Fall. Time for another term to begin. Time to buy textbooks. Time to head say goodbye to moms and dads for hte next few months. Time to see all your friends you didn't see over the summer. Time to go back to get back on the rocket bus and fly to school.

Nestled high above the clouds, away from the prying eyes of normal citizens, is the school of Sky High University. It was a college much like any other college. A beautiful campus, vibrant student body, enough dorms for all the students to live on campus. This was where it stopped being like a normal college though. This school was established as a place for super powered individuals to go and continue their education past highschool. These days it takes quite the education to be a superhero... calculating velocity when speeding faster than a bullet.. doing superscience to save the world.. these things require more than your rudimentary highschool education. Thus SHU exists to give aspiring superpeople a leg up in the world!
__________________________________

It was the first day of the fall term and Dante Smith was running late for class. He had overslept, a rarity for him. Dante was almost never late, a perfect student who though about nothing but his education at SHU. Unlike a lot of the other students he didn't take part in an parties, didn't go on dates, didn't compete in supersports like a lot of kids his age. It was due to this fact that Dante was one of, if not the strongest telepath and psychoshaper in the school. He outstripped many of his professor's abilities, instead using his time at school to do his own research on his powers. Still, Dante was committed to his studies, but today he was running late.. on the first day of the term no doubt. He ran around a corner and ran smack into a leatherclad girl with strawberry colored hair, sending them both spawling. As Dante fell he focused his mind and forced a cushion of air to rise up and prevent the girl from smacking the ground right as he himself collided hard with the floor, knocking his breath away.

Zema

(OOC : its great Thank you )


Zema was happily minded her own business when she felt someone ran her over knocking her softly on her ass , Pushing her hair out of her face she looked at the person who nicely ran her over with out saying sorry..

"Do you always run people over or am I lucky to be your first Darling " she got her self up off the ground and put her hand out to him .. "The names Zema and You are ?"

 

[gagonthis]

Dante fumbled around embarrassed, using his mind to gather up all the loose papers he had dropped out of his books when he had run into the girls.
"Sssorry about that." He said blushing and stuttering his words. He'd never been very good around women. "I was in a hurry and wasn't watching where I was going.." He focused his mind and a bunch of translucent hands appeared and began scooping up all of Zema's stuff she dropped before handing it back to her. "I'm... Dante." He said, his eyes still rooted on the ground.

OOC: He's a telepath so let me know if your character thinks something he think "accidently" overhear

 

[Dragonlady]

(OCC gotcha She going to be thinking about zaping him )

Zema looked at him oddly " Hello Dante nice to meet you .. " She wasn't sure of his Powers but she might as well ask where he was heading too "UM What Class are you Heading to in such a hurry ?"

She let her eyes glow .. its a great way to get charge for what she had planned ... She learned alot about her powers.. but she is a clutz none the less ..

 

[gagonthis]

Dante could sense her intentions, understanding he was probably a bit peeved that he had run into her. He stared at her for a second before her question penetrated his mind. "Oooh umm I'm headed to Professor Mantak's seminar on unlocking the human mind's potential. he's a great teacher, one of hte foremost on the subject. I've read both of his books, and though I've personally found some flaws in his argument as to the extent in which he predicts the human mind will change over the next hundred years I still find him to be a very interesting figure in the field. He's agreed to take a break from his work countering covert ops of a superhuman nature to come teach here this...." He sighed. "I'm rambling again. I'm sorry."

 

[Dragonlady]

zema

She watched him spout off telling her about the teachers class.. "YOu mean the Classic what we don't perseve is always Possible when are mind show us at the least Possible moment" she blushed ...

She hated showing people that she was smart but really she made her self over so she wouldn't look like a geek anymore , Her sister made her do this make over .. She couldn't understand the leather but she liked it .. People started to leave her alone and the ones that picked on her didn't reconise her as the Clutz Zem

(OCC He can see pictures of her geeky self as well)

 

[gagonthis]

His face lit up as she expanded upon his previous statement. "You know his work?! That's awesome. I've always felt he is given less than his due on the subject." He smiled as he saw her as the young geek in his mind. "I really do need to be getting to class though. Maybe..." he gulped thinking to himself come on man, you're a fucking superhero, grow some balls. "Maybe we could get together sometime?"

 

[Dragonlady]

Zema Looked at him amazed she gave him a shy smiled flashing some dimpled as she just put them there "I was heading to the roof.. IT seems our Principle want some Lighting " she looked at him "YOu can come with me if you like " she looked away blushing she wasn't use to talking to boys .

Mr. Gentleman (Teacher)

Erol Avery better known as Mr. Gentleman... a normally emaculately dressed 'hero' or 'villian' no one could tell what was on that man's mind. He seemed to be most all the students' favorite teacher as he didn't act stiffy and upstart like the others. He was down to earth, and oft times flighty causing a general ruckus among school grounds more than the students themselves. The faculty didn't know what to do with him, and the students wouldn't dare cross him so there was much to do about nothing when it came to the man with a strange name.

Entering his class for the day he found it empty. Snapping his gloves upon his hands he growled at this. He hated to have an empty class upon his arrival...checking his watch he calmed a bit realizing he had come a little earlier than planned. No matter...taking a seat he kicked up his feet and sat back relaxing as he pulled out his newspaper from his briefcase.

Malferon

Malferon sighed (actually, more like hissed, but we'll debate semantics later) in relief. Finally, he was on his way to conquer...damn it, he had the name of that planet in his notes somewhere. That's right. Earth. The planet of the woefully limited of limb Humans, whose females at least had plenty of curves to recommend them.

Malferon was starting on his senior project. Everyone else got to do things like set up interrogation camps on conquered minor moons or work up studies comparing the effectiveness of death rays vs. disintegration beams.

Not Malferon. No sir. When you're the offspring of the Talkerian Empire's most decorated and feared general AND the Talkerian Empire's most innovative and invase interrogator, you don't get to hand in easy senior projects. You've got to show you're a chip of the old block. And so Malferon was assigned the senior project of conquering some little backwater planet called Earth. It wasn't that it was going to be hard. Far from it. It was just so damn far from anywhere. It was going to take a whole Kalbazam to get there.

Malferon was pissed. He was going to take Jaleri to the the Wakani Dance. And Malferon was sure he was going to get to third base with her; maybe even get to put his tentacle in her Llakair.

And now he was going to be gone. He was pretty sure by the time he got back, his worst enemy, Vrokar, would be making Lagalaga with Jaleri.

And his parental units. Sheesh. His Mloram crying over him and giving him that ugly green Prishna to wear; she had heard that Earth's seasons were unreasonably cold. Then his Frakina had taken him aside and given him the talk about the Grubles and the Miznats, and to watch himself around those Earth girls who, even though they came from a backwater planet, were notorious for the willingness to Lagalaga with anyone who threw a few Penrims at them.

Well, all that talk was behind him now. Malferon was on his way to Earth. He had all the required reading material and protective devices. Weapons. Personal defenses. A wide array of Doom's Day devices.

Malferon looked at himself in the mirror. He was actually quite handsome for a member of his species. He stood eight feet tall, was covered in a fine white fur, had seven to ten tentacles (depending on his need) and very lovely indigo eyes. Seven of them, all about a thirty centimeters in diameter.

Malferon took a look at a printout he had gotten of a nude Earth female. Very nice. Maybe he would enjoy a little Lagalaga with one or more of them. After he took his first step of conquering Earth and enslaving the Human Race.

He was going to have to take out something called Sky High College. It shouldn't be a problem. He was a Talkerian, after all, which made him a member of a race feared through out the galaxy for its ruthlessness and cruelty. No being in the galaxy could match a Talkerian in mental prowness, physical strength, unflagging endurance or combat skills.

No, Malferon realized, the tough part was going to be preparing the twenty page paper that would accompany his senior project. Single spaced. With footnotes. It made Malferon want to tell his instructor, Mr. Tlakakapur, to go Lagalaga himself.

 

[gagonthis]

Zema Looked at him amazed she gave him a shy smiled flashing some dimpled as she just put them there "I was heading to the roof.. IT seems our Principle want some Lighting " she looked at him "YOu can come with me if you like " she looked away blushing she wasn't use to talking to boys .

"Well.... I don't know I should get to class..... but I suppose it wouldn't hurt to miss the first day, it's usually just getting the syllabus and what not. So yeah I'd be glad to go with you." He was staring at his feet now, blushing furiously. "Soooo ummmm what did the dean want lightning for anyway?"

 

[Dragonlady]

Zema

Zema smiled at him "Well it seems the Chemistry and Weapons department both blew a fuse .. I on the other hand have plenty to go aound " she gigled as she made it up the stairs and out on the roof..

"How come a good looking guy like yoru self doesn't have a girlfriend ?" she looked up at the sky as she tilted her head to the side

 

[gagonthis]

"Oh so like extra power. I might be able to help. I'm a psychoshaper. I don't have nearly the controls over elements like some of you guys do, but I can form tiny bolts and stuff when I need to." He blushed pure crimson when she called him good looking. "Oh ummmm well I don't know. I'm not very good with girls. And I spend most of my time studying and what not. I don't think girls are interested in me anyhow. The one girlfriend I had at Sky High was really offput by my telepathy.. I couldn't control it then so I'd pick up on everything it seemed."

Malferon

Malferon entered the orbit of Earth undetected. Considering that he had an Advanced No-Detection Cloaking Invisible Device running on his ship, it wasn't that hard to remain undetected. Particularly considering the dismal level of technology possessed by these Humans.

Malferon looked over his copy of An Idiot's Guide to Conquering the Earth. There were plenty of references to this Sky High College, but no exact location. It didn't matter. All he had to do was create a "natural" disaster and the heroes would come running. Once they did, he would simply use his advanced Talkerian technology to trace them back to Sky High College and then...

And then Malferon would destroy Sky High College.

Malferon located a suitable medium sized city on the land mass referred to by the natives as North America. Firing his Undetectable Tectonic Plate Shifter Ray, Malferon started a rather sizable earthquake. Now, Malferon told himself, I just have to wait for the heroes to show up. In the meantime...

Malferon put on some music and did the Talkerian victory dance. In the background, the Talkerian band was singing, "Do a little dance, make a little Lagalaga, get down tonight."

 

[Dragonlady]

Zema

Zema smiled at him "Well kinda but they need the purest of energy " she made her self glow make the sky form colors like no other .. She made sure each color bolt hit the metal poles as she started to get tired she sat down to take a break " Unfortantly it takes a lot of energy out of me alone for such a big source "

she looked away blushing ...

 

[gagonthis]

"Whoa that's pretty cool looking." He commented as she went to work with her powers. "My powers are very boring looking." He chuckled and then looked away blushing. "telepathy is not all that spectatular looking." Shit.. it was happening again, his control was slipping and he felt his thoughts entering her mind unbidden

Zema felt a sensation in her head, one that told her beyond a shadow of doubt that this kid found her attractive and that she was making him nervous because of his shyness.

 

[Dragonlady]

Zema

She looked over at him "Its a bit over annoying I bet to read other peoples minds ..Try being a shaft shifter and have your brothers use you as a party show" she smiled showing she didn't mind the intrusion.. "I don't mind just to let you know and I'm ok with it ..At least I know the voice I hear in my head is you"

Zema got up and walked over beside him "What is your favorite animal?"

 

[Kuuroinochou]

Rushing down the halls was Vivi who was on her way to Mr. Gentleman's room to inform him that the faculty needed his assistance with an Earthquake disaster down below. As she skidded around a corner she was running at top speed, not seeing the two students talking amongst themselve she blinked and called, "Watch out!"

Hardly able to stop herself in time she used her forward momentum and leapt from the ground flipped over them both and landed gracefully on the other side. Turning with a slight glare, she huffed but stood to her full height. "My apologizes for putting you in harms way like that. I must be on my way though..." With that she headed down the hall and into Mr. Gentleman's class. He was known to control seismic waves on a level, perhaps he could help with the current disaster.

(ooc: feel free to read her mind..hehe.)

 

[JackMoz]

Malferon

Malferon used his Super Remote Sneaker Peeker to see if the heroes had shown up yet. A thought occured to him. Perhaps the earthquake wouldn't be sufficient enough to attract superheroes. It might be consider too mundane for them, and relegated to the normal authorities. Malferon needed to up the ante.

The computer advised Malferon that the city in question was in a seasonal period that the natives referred to as "Summer." Let's give those natives something to think about, Malferon decided. Again, using stealthy Talkerian technology, Malferon caused a giant ice storm to appear right over the earthquake stricken town.

With the ice storm created, Malferon started doing the Talkerian victory dance to the sensual beat of "Lagalaga Healing."

 

[Kuuroinochou]

Mr. Gentleman snorted at the mundane idea of helping some earthquake ridden people below. "What business do you have asking me such a thing?" he questioned his superiors, after Vivi had given the information over to him he stormed off to the principle's quarters to have a word with her. "Its an earthquake quite natural for this time of year wouldn't you say?"

Upon arguing that fact he smirked. "Yes I suppose you're right but those people would need someone of your abilities to move rubble and debris."

"I'm not biting into this apple madame. It looks poisionous to me...call me when something of magnitude occurs. I have a class to teach..." He nodded curtly and turned on his finely clad heels heading for the door. Not even a second entering the hall when he was called back.

"Mr. Gentleman...."

"What now madame?"

"Would this be more on par of what you were talking about?" Upon her odd question Gentleman looked at the screen showing snow. Nothing out of the ordinary there, but being that it was the middle of summer in a tropical climate no doubt, snow was just way to strange not to investigate.

With a heavy sigh, Gentleman fixed his gloves on his hands drawing fists. "Very well its worth an investigation. Should I go it alone?"

"Actually take a small group with you. This is a perfect chance for a close encounter. About three students should do."

Gentleman sighed. "Very well madame but this was your idea. I could have very well taken care of the situation." With that he turned once more on heel in search of some students to assist in this most unusual matter.

 

[gagonthis]

She looked over at him "Its a bit over annoying I bet to read other peoples minds ..Try being a shaft shifter and have your brothers use you as a party show" she smiled showing she didn't mind the intrusion.. "I don't mind just to let you know and I'm ok with it ..At least I know the voice I hear in my head is you"

Zema got up and walked over beside him "What is your favorite animal?"

He chuckled at her, seeing the image in his mind of her as a child being forced to change shapes. "That sad! Siblings really are just there to torture you." He smiled. "I've always like monkeys myself, or sharks... fascinating creatures."

 

[Hikari]

Alexa looked over at the girl named Zema and the Boy named Dante. It was nauseating. The girl was whining about being about having animal shapeshifting powers as a child, but she assumed she wasn't a full shape shifter like herself. She could become anything organic within the physical laws on this planet. She herself hadn't had complete control as a child. She'd sometimes sneeze and become a squid, but now she had control over atleast 40 different forms. She walked by elaborately changing her form to a tall blue haired girl. That would show em'. Just then she heard a teacher yell at her.


"You!"


She ran as if she was being shot at. Down the hall and into a darkened room.

 

[gagonthis]

He reigned his telepathy in control right as the girl shot past him. He sensed she was angry? apprehensive? Sometimes emotions were so interconnected it was hard to distinguish between them, in any case she was just plain rude. Suddenly, his mind back under his control as he became more comfortable around Zema he felt the palpable worry and stress building up. "Something major has happened...." he said, zoning out as his mind searched out for a discernable answer amid the storm of thoughts. "There's been an earthquake... down below... and now... and ice storm in summer? People are hurting..." He frowned in thought.

 

[Dragonlady]

She didn't have to ask as she looked at him "Lets go " she Ran down the steps and right into Mr. GentleMen...

"G -Day Mr. Gentlemen Would you like some help?" she asked as she wondered if the big great teacher would make her fly him there again ..

 

[Kuuroinochou]

Sighing Gentleman fixed is suit more firmly to his form after being ran into. "Hello Ms. Zemo, Mr. Dante... I believe your services are needed at this time." He smiled knowing that Dante already picked up on it. "Considering time is of the essence I'll assume Dante has already filled you in and our meeting is not by chance. I will need your assistance posthaste; we have lives to save."
