<div align=center>To put it bluntly, there was only one way to describe just how Oliver felt at the moment- like hell. It was a rather mild day out, in fact it was rather pleasant. But even the clear blue skies and the gentle breeze conducting itself around campus hadn't the greatest impact on the current state of mind for the young boy. His body felt like it was on fire. A small hand clutched his chest as he felt his heart pulsate at an incredible rate, and with that heat flushed his system and made him feel not at all like himself. So instead of joining the lighthearted outdoor activities that were unfolding by a few students and staff out in the large field, Oliver was planning on making a quick escape to the forest where that sliver of his real self told him he'd be safe from both hurting others and himself.

Ever since that meet up not too long ago with Alice his health had declined, not just physically but mentally as well. Polite gestures as pleases and thank you's had turned into brutish retorts and rude behavior. Hellos with him were pushed off with angered silence, and if he was questioned he would snap back faster than a pissed off crocodile. But this was none of his doing. His own conscience had been shoved aside, leaving a tiny voice to scream and beg mentally to apologize and stop being such a little brat. But he was helpless at this point. He had isolated himself to avoid contact with others, but even then that wasn't working. Hell, on his way here he had gone out of his way to push his day of torture upon someone else, and, although his reputation earlier in his decline had made excuses for this, that was beginning to lose its effectiveness.

Primal aggression and this odd sense of evolutionary superiority had unknowingly sapped into his brain to replace humility and kindness. So, as mentioned, karma was coming back to bite him, and for once even that little voice that kept his sanity whispered that he deserved everything. Including a secret plan of revenge that had been set up from earlier in the week.

An older teen boy, a sibling of one of the school's younger attendants and a peer of Oli's just so happened to be a physic and saw just where he was heading. So naturally, the trap fell into perfect place. Just as Oliver was making his way down a small field to enter the area where many students were out and about to have fun. But this day was only going to go from bad to worse. Just as he made his first step down the hill, he didn't see without his glasses (as his pupils had constricted themselves and he couldn't see a damn thing anyway) that someone had created a practical mudslide for him to tumble down clumsily, falling off his feet and landing face first into a pool of wet dirt below. His scream was only met with a chorus of laughter, as his tormentor casted a shadow over his both scratched up and muddy body.

"Hey there."

The snicker rang through his skull, not only hurting his oddly sensitive brain at the moment but adding insult to injury at the situation. He looked up blindly, face covered in the brown muck presumably created by this man. ”H-huh?" He asked, both bewildered and hurt.

"You lil shit..." The boy chuckled amusingly, as well as the friends that he had dragged here to bear witness. "I heard from my little brother that you're the one that made him fail his class project. All because you wouldn't let him copy off of you... And now he's suspended for trying to cheat." Oh yes, that. Well, one of the good things that came out of 'new' Oli was that he wasn't as much of a pushover anymore. So when time came around to do a group project and his partner failed to do anything to help, Oliver, instead of typically giving in to help him, decided to pretty much say 'eff you, you're the one that's going to suffer for this, not me'. Of course now this wasn't quite such a popular decision, as now it appeared his ex-partner's sibling was going to make his life hell for dragging him down. "You're a pretentious little swine, you know that? Too good to help anybody, hm? Well guess what- you're just a no good kid who thinks that you're hot shit. So what's a pig without a stye, hm?"

”Stop it. N-no I'm not...” Oliver whimpered, looking down as to no longer face the boy and the humiliation that was beginning to turn his face red hot.

Well, this submission that had snapped 'old' Oliver back came as quite a surprise to the elder boy. Nevertheless, it as delightful to see that he wasn't so big as he was before. "Oh, not so tough now are ya? You're weak, I knew it. Hell I've seen you in the hallways. You'll cry if I look at you the wrong way. You're nothing here, and just because you're smart doesn't mean you're bright. Face the facts, and maybe you won't be such a tool in the future." The boy spat in a belligerent manner, his other friends laughing at him.

As the reprimanding got increasingly hurtful, Oliver became increasingly angry. He even resorted to covering his ears, tears bubbling at the corners of his eyes. ”S-shut up...” His shoulders bristled as soft sobs started to come up from him. ”Stop laughing at me! Please!”

But this only fueled the older boy's ego further. "Or what? What are you going to do? Cry? Tell the principal? Wow that's really something..." He then pulled out his phone, taking a quick picture of the ruined small child to show his brother as proof later. He snickered before pocketing it, turning his back against him. "You're gonna get pushed around all your life. Face it, you've got no backbone. You're either feared or respected in this world, but you'll never be either."

It was silent. That was, until Oliver said one more thing.

”And that's where you're wrong.”

And that's when Oliver officially snapped. He stood up, fists clenched to his side, snarl seen under caked mud. Hatred bubbled within him, for the bully, for the bystanders, for everyone who has ever done him wrong in his past. Hell, at this point everything and everyone was against him. And it was time to make them pay. Everyone was going to pay. Because you know what? Respect didn't get him anywhere as told by his darkening mindset. But fear... Fear was something he could do.

In a split second that last grasp of patience and submission created by the 'good' side of his mind had finally been pushed aside for the animal instincts that had been locked away under his concealment. But it had gotten too strong, too powerful for him to control. And now everyone was a target. Nobody was safe from the wrath he had wrapped up for twelve years. Nobody.

The artificial placement of his darker personality had taken full control of his brain. Hacked neurons sent triggers for him to transform and instincts bubbled to the surface. That last desperate grip on himself was long gone, leaving prehistoric instincts to flood the logic he had controlled himself with. In almost a blink of an eye his filthy clothes had ripped off as his body bulked and shifted to a more terrifying form. The shadow had been reversed over the tormentor, as the once small boy now towered over his figure. But he wasn't himself, oh no. His body was now that of a forty foot tall, eight ton, fully grown male Tyrannosaurus Rex.

And it was hungry. And it wanted blood.

An ear piercing roar shook the flat grounds, causing the posse to scatter. Well, except for their ringleader. He stood in the shadow of the long since dead beast, now trembling. He didn't see this coming. Not at all. But before he could analyze the fault in his ability he was hurled halfway across the field with a swing of the skull much larger than him, right in the middle of where a group of students had assembled.

There was no way he survived that.

The dinosaur stepped one step forward. Tiny eyes scanned the area, as a gaping maw lined with banana-sized teeth were antsy for a taste of whatever prey he could get his mouth on. It was time for the Terrible Lizard to once more take his reign on this planet that had long since tossed him to the extinction pool. And this time, it was going to show the true superior force to even the most specialized of humans.

After all, 70 million years was a long time to go without a meal.

Wong Ha Jung (with Pham Thi Anh Sang)

Tuesday and Thursday afternoons, a little before two, those were the times when Anh Sang normally came around to his office. In the beginning, it was for mostly conversation -more on the young girl's side than Wong Ha Jung's. Not that he minded. He was more of a listener than a speaker, after all. It was just what his job called for. Quickly enough, however, those conversations had turned into something resembling tutoring sessions. And sometimes like today, they were moved outside to the courtyard. The weather was nice and he had time. There really wasn't any reason not to and for kids like Anh Sang, it was good for them to get some time out anyways. Like many days, they had gotten off the subject of school a long time ago.

"-so I was trying to figure a way to separate the colors but it's just too hard!" the girl was telling him, scowling across the courtyard. She was swinging her short legs impatiently. "I started with the purple parts because they were the prettiest but it just keeps getting stuck together and looks like a mess!"

Wong Ha Jung simply nodded. "I see," he said peaceably, even though he really didn't. Obligingly, he examined the lumpy orb of light that the Korean girl presented him with, turning it over in his hands. For the most part, it seemed to glow a uniform color of white, but every once in a while, he'd see a flash of purple and green inside. Frankly, he thought it was impressive already but since he had seen some of the girl's other works, he could understand why she was still upset about it.

"I think that maybe I should just string them together for now," Anh Sang deliberated, doing something strange with her fingers. It took a moment for the counselor to see the thread-like strand of white light around them. "It's going to have to be something big, though. I just can't do small things with it. It's so annoying!" she complained dramatically, throwing her hands up and scattering the butterflies floating around her.

"Marbles seem to be working for you," Wong Ha Jung suggested as he handed the orb back to her. "Maybe stick with that."

Anh Sang pouted. "Yeah, but I just wish I could make things different! It's so boring just to be making the same things over and over again!"

The counselor just smiled, knowing that it was pointless to try arguing with her when she was in one of these moods. He listened to her complain more about her magic before suddenly changing it into this lecture about art. Not being much of an artist himself outside of calligraphy, Wong Ha Jung truly couldn't find it in himself to stop her, not when she already seemed so passionate about the subject. If only she would slow down... Some of her speech was becoming quite unintelligible, as a result of trying to speak too fast as well as the girl's still not very fluent English. Really, the only reason why the man could even still understand her was because he used to speak like that, too.

Suddenly, however, just as she was taking a breath, the girl was interrupted by a very loud feral roar that seemed to shake the ground slightly. Startled, Wong Ha Jung looked in the direction of the fields, where it had come from, to see a large shape rising over on the horizon. What on Earth... He had glasses that day so he could see quite clearly that it was a dinosaur.

Anh Sang squeaked at the sight of it but to the man's confusion and horror, the girl began running in that direction. He abandoned the bench to follow her. "Wait! Anh Sang! Come back!"

She stopped suddenly and Wong Ha Jung stumbled over his feet trying not to crash into her. "But I think that's Oliver!" she said, tugging his hand in an attempt to get him off the ground. Oliver, that was her roommate, if he remembered correctly. Dinosaur shapeshifter. Okay. That conclusion made a lot of sense. "Come on! Something's wrong! Oliver doesn't just do that!"

"I think we had better get one of the other staff members-" the man started. Neither of them had any powers that could stand up to something that large, after all, so it made sense to find somebody else on the staff who did. Everybody else would be safer that way. And in any case, children should not have to face other children in that manner.

Unfortunately, Anh Sang was both young and headstrong. She took off again before he could right himself and then, there was nothing else for Wong Ha Jung but run after her and hopefully keep her as out of harm's way as possible.

High above the chaos a mechanical bird watched as events unfolded according to it’s creator’s will. Made invisible by its cloaking device, the Yata Garasu unit flew gracefully over the fields, silently observing the hysteria below. Hysteria, in fact, was the best word one could use to describe it. Upon his transformation Oliver had caused quite the uproar. Both his tormentors and innocent onlookers where gripped with fear. They bolted across the field like mice, scurrying away from the looming predator that Oliver had become. To everybody’s horror, the body count begun as soon as his power was revealed; the ringleader’s body a bloody mess sprawled out across the ground. One of his friends sat frozen in shock by his corpse, the blood and innards of the dead boy splattered all over her body. She cried out in despair and fear as chaos continued to erupt in the fields.

People pushed, and shoved. They screamed and cried. They tried desperately to get away. Their fear was turning them into animals. Some barreled through others, knocking them down in the path of the lumbering saurian menace. It was terrible. It was a nightmare. It was chaos, madness and it was all part of a carefully orchestrated game. Indeed, this fact was the one thing that was unknown to all present in the pandemonium, but hand moving the pieces knew all too well. From high above, the robot bird simply watched it all. It obediently recorded, unfeeling and deaf to the screams below….just like it’s mistress, the grand chessmaster who watched her game unfold through it’s eyes…

————————

Many miles away from the chaos, Alice Mordrake sat comfortably before a large digital screen displaying the rampage. Despite the horrors playing in front of her she looked unstintingly relaxed, sprawled out lazily on a large plush pink couch. She had a twisted grin as she watched it all unfold before her. Snuggling a Pikachu plushy tight she giggled with excitement as the screen displayed everything she had set in motion. “Oliver, Oliver, Oliver….your such a good boy, you know that? Already your doing exactly as I want. It’s enough to make a girl blush!” Alice exclaimed as she continued to view the carnage. Full of excitement she took her plushy and started to happily bounce it up and down, giggling maniacally the whole time. “Pikachu Pikachu…look what we’ve gone and done! It’s so lovely, no?” Alice said with a giggle, turning her plush toy towards the screen . “Soon that boy will be all miiinnneee!!...He'll be another toy of mine just like you!” Alice said excitedly to her stuffed pokemon as she tossed it into the air and quickly caught it.


“Of course…I may need to break a few other things on the way…but when did that matter, they aren’t important anyway, right? I mean…there’s so many humans on this planet…I’m sure Gaia could lose a few and not even bat an eye!” Alice said happily to her toy. With another bout of giggling she returned to her view of the screen as the chaos continued. Heh. So the game is set. Now…Oliver…lets see what your capable of with MY help! Alice thought to herself in anticipation of her pawn’s next move.

When Jacob first heard what sounded like the roar of a large animal, he initially dismissed it as a figment of his imagination or that he was just mishearing something else like a piece of machinery. It was not the first time he had heard a strange loud noise while on campus, and he was not about to let it interrupt his lessons. But when his students closest to the windows began shouting about a monster or a dinosaur, quickly followed by the panicked screams of people outside, Jacob was forced to take notice and look out the windows too. Sure enough, there was an honest-to-God dinosaur on the loose and--holy shit--it was on a rampage.

"Everyone. EVERYONE! Sit down!"

It was like the storm. Jacob had to get out there and help. He closed his book and went for his sword, which was learning against his own desk.

"Stay inside this room until either I come back, or another teacher comes to get you! Is that understood? And stay away from the windows!"

His voice was stern and commanding, though he had no time to stay and enforce his rules. Before he was even finished, he was out the door and running for the exits. This time, he would be of more use. His new abilities gave him an edge he lacked when trying to save the kids during the storm before.

The moment he stepped outside, he kicked in his powers and he streaked across the grounds in a blur of speed. There were too many students to help individually. His best bet to minimize casualties would be to distract the beast itself. His speed would hopefully keep him out of reach of those teeth.

Just as he skidded to a stop in front of Anh Sang and Wong, Jacob spun around and swung his sheathe towards the dinosaur, sending out a shockwave of wind right at it. Preparing himself, he began to draw his sword. He did not know where the beast had come from, or that it was actually a student, but Jacob did intend on stopping it.

"Oy! Over here!"

<div align=center>Now, on a normal basis, the carnivorous beast would not only be under human control but be no different than the boy that held its form. Oliver hadn't shifted all that often since coming here, but when he did that building-tall dinosaur was just about as threatening as a kitten. He still held doors for people (albeit almost denting them), apologized in grunts and soft moans, and even occasionally tripped on himself... But for that last feature produced the exact reason why he chose not to shift all that often. On any case there was a good bond between the creatures he had been infused with and himself. Instinctual thoughts usually only flooded his mind when he was at peace with himself and under full control of his actions.

Sadly, this wasn't true this time.

Something, something was possessing him. His shared body and linked mind had gone out of sync and the dinosaur had taken full control. The boy was gone, lost in the void of his own consciousness. Perhaps it was mad at him for keeping it under restraints for so long... But it couldn't be that. Could it? After all it was a wild, undomesticated animal on its own. Maybe breaking away from the boy was to show that the link they had only existed out of inability to retain control. But now it was free. And it no longer had the pressure of a morally constrained boy to block out its true potential. It had to make the most out of the opportunity it was presented.

Screaming and crying only served to fuel the monster more, hurting its ears with shrill frail noises enough to tick it off even more. It gave another grumble before it turned back towards the crowd, almost ready to pounce after it and fling each individual around him like a rag doll. What could it say? It liked to play with its good before going in for the kill.

Something however caught the monster off guard, and diverted its reptilian gaze towards these people. A scent drifted across to him, a feature not applicable to the previously human boy. His heightened senses attributed the smell of a familiar person to being behind him. Though, if Oliver would have really been in control, this bonus would only be used to elate the boy as it indeed was his roommate and good friend, Anh Sang. But the dinosaur saw her no different then any other of the pathetic humans scattering like ants. In fact, familiar scents with it usually indicated prey it never quite got finished with. And now it was time to settle that once and for all.

The tyrannosaurus stomped towards the girl, it haunches raised and its mouth gaping. The first indicator that this was under no man's control was probably just how delusional its eyes were, filled with primal rage and hunger. Sure, the girl wouldn't make for so much as an appetizer, but it was worth the shot anyway. But just as it reared its head to strike it down, the dinosaur felt a wall of air hit if and cause it to stumble, disorienting its sense of balance. It shook its head to try to clear its rather sense mind before snapping its attention onto a figure that had suddenly appeared right before him. And if it wasn't angry as resistance before, it was now.

It let out another ear splitting howl before turning its body towards him. So this teacher wanted to fight huh? Well, it could manage that. In retaliation and no concern of the other two around it it swung it's massive tail in their direction, not giving a damn about who or what it hit. It just wanted people dead. </div>

Sylvia had been searching for a garden since her classes had ended, she had hoped to find some fresh fruit, and vegtables. What she found was a massive... Dinosaur? How could that be possible? Sylvia's first thought was to run away, but she saw people getting killed. 'I could help those people, maybe I can destract him? Thats stupid what if I get myself killed?' Sylvia dawned the Saryn Battleframe without thinking. She ran as fast as she could to the massive T-Rex, she fired a small dose of Venom at the beast trying to get its attention. She quickly found three other people "Whats going on? How can I help?" Sylvia asked, her voice sounded muffled but could still be heard fine.

Porky, you can go ahead and start hurting Wong whenever. =P God modding is fine.

Wong Ha Jung (with Pham Thi Anh Sang)

Oh Dear God. The counselor pulled Anh Sang back, trying to get the girl to run away. "It's not safe for you here," he told her, panicking. "Go back to the school!"

The girl wiggled out of his grasp. "That's Oliver," she repeated with wide eyes, looking around at everything at such speeds that she probably actually took in very little. Shock, that's what it was. "Why isn't he stopping? I don't know..." Anh Sang was ten years old and Oliver was twelve. Neither of them should have been there.

Wong Ha Jung started a little as another staff member joined them. "Jacob! That's Oliver Breckenridge!" he shouted at the teacher falteringly in warning. As relieved as he was to not be facing the out of control shapeshifter on his own, the counselor still was torn between his worry for the other students as well as his worry for what would happen to the boy himself. Or, for that matter, what had already happened to make him act this way. From what Anh Sang had told him, Oliver was one of the sweetest, most polite students on campus. And people like that didn't just snap into a bloody rampage over nothing.

When the other person joined them, however, the man didn't know what to think. Looking at the armor, he wasn't sure whether the person inside was a student or just a bystander or what. From the voice, it was still hard to tell, and just downright impossible when factoring in the noise around them. It was probably for the best that Wong Ha Jung didn't know for certain who was inside because if he had, he would have just been even more terrified.

There wasn't any time to say anything else to that person, though. No time to even say something as simple as Be careful. As the dinosaur's massive tail came sweeping at them, the only thing Wong Ha Jung could do was scoop up Anh Sang and try and throw them both out of the way.

"That's who?!"

In the heat of the moment, Jacob was not able to process who exactly the dinosaur was supposed to be. But his synapses were able to piece together that it WAS someone and it WAS a student. The blade that had been partially pulled from its sheathe was pushed back and locked into place. His plan of maybe slicing the beast up was put on hold in light of the knowledge that their situation was, unfortunately, a student out of control.

It was pandemonium on the campus, and few seemed up to facing the student-turned-beast. Jacob could not blame them. The sight of an ancient apex predator was probably hell on their psyches. But at least one other was stepping up to defend the fleeing students.

"Just try and--"

Jacob's orders were cut short by the massive tail of the Tyrannosaurus. He was only just able to defend himself with his hardened sheathe, which blocked his body from direct harm but the force of the sweep still sent Jacob flying.

Twisting in mid-air, Jacob quickly righted himself and rapidly began to spin, creating a miniature twister, which he then fired off back at the beast.

"Keep him away from the students! Incapacitate him!"

Landing on his sweet, Jacob cocked his sword back and took off toward the dinosaur, zig zaging in a blur, trying to draw its attention and thread his way between its legs.

Sylvia ran away from the T-Rex ,apparently named Olivier, to distance herself from it. She began charging another Venom attack, waiting for it to build up. ' Thats a student isnt it? Why is he attacking people?' Sylvia thought to herself. Her Venom shot was large enough but she held back on firing it ' It dosent matter why, hes attacking people so he need to be stopped!' she fired the large dose of venom at the T-Rex, it was fairly slow moving but Sylvia was hoping the beast wouldn't notice until it was to late.

It was a beautiful day for anyone to be outside in the open air of the coming summer heat. Claire sighed as she looked up at the sky, watching, for a few moments as the clouds drifted by her. She had always wondered what it would be like to feel weightless, or like nothing, as the clouds must feel like. She knew that the stories of sitting on the clouds weren't all that true, as you would just fall right through them, but it was still good for her to be able to think about it.

She closed her eyes slowly, thinking about maybe taking a nap before heading in the get something to eat or to go on an adventure in the forest. As her eyes were almost closed, she heard, in the distance, a disturbance, as if something was off balance. She waited a few moments and focused in on it, it was screeches, and roars. Though it sounded a bit too distant, it would still have to be close enough, at least in the school grounds, for her to be able to hear it so distinctly. She quickly shot up like a bullet to her feet and smiled. "Finally something to look at." She said as she raced toward the sounds.

{Lucy}
As she was casually walking through the fields of the school, she heard a loud roar coming from her left.She shot around to see, something, int he distance. It was tall, taller then any human or regular creature on this island. She smirked though, and looked around cautiously before racing to the large figure. As she got there, to her surprise, she was right It wasn't like anything she had ever seen, it was, a dinosaur. Lucy wasn't sure what to do. She could just simply go back and watch from the side line, but no, that wasn't her. She smirked again as she saw a few other people in the distance around the dino. "Well this just must be my lucky day."
