Cass watched the lurking figure peel away from the shadows while considering his request. Normally, she'd have given him directions and gone on her merry way, but there was a warning signal of sorts activated by her logical mind. He'd just stepped out of the Forbidden Forest at night. She'd had some sort of telepathic warning that he was there - which had never happened. Either he was incredibly lucky not to have been eaten, or he was incredibly powerful. Combined with the unusual head's-up, Cass found herself reluctant to aid him. That, of course, left her with the problem of what to say. Since her sojourn in those woods, her natural tendency to be suspicious had swelled into a paranoid tendency to fear for her own life on a regular basis. If he was powerful enough to saunter out of that forest looking for directions, as though he hadn't just taken a walk in the seventh circle of hell, he was probably capable of killing her.

Not the most trusting or carefree of approaches, but given her recent experiences, it made sense to her. Hands in her pockets, she watched him for a little while, not speaking. Just thinking of how to get out of the situation without dying or causing anyone else to die. "Maybe," she hazarded, eventually. "I guess it depends on what you were doing in those woods."

Sorcha slowly stood up as she realized that Naka was okay. She looked at the sword and a dawning comprehension lit up her face."Its the sword isn't it? That is why my force field wasn't stronger and the wind wasn't as powerful as before? The sword helped me to control it didn't it? And of course I want the sheath you crazy boy." She stepped up and compulsively hugged Naka and whispered into his ear,"Thank you, you have no idea how much this means to me."

She then turned around and looked at the assembled group surrounding her and Naka. She looked at Cyan,"So your the famous Cyan, Naka has mentioned you of course, and at the time, I did not put two and two together, my apologies. And for future reference, its only polite to let people know when you are standing there listening to their conversation." Looking at Miles she leaned over and slapped his shoulder,"I heard that comment you made earlier, that you had made my sword. It seems to me that you did a wonderful job, I will have to, of course, practice with it so that I may get the best use out of it. If this is an example of your work, then I shall tell people you did the magic on it and hopefully get you some more offers."

She looked around and finally found Tien flitting still next to Naka, she noticed the accusation in her eyes and heard what Naka had told her. She walked closer and looked at the fairy in the eyes and said,"You and I did not get off on a very good foot, and mostly that is my fault. Don't worry about letting the cat out of the bag by telling me about the sword. If you had not, then maybe everybody would not have been here to share in my excitement in getting it and trying it out for the first time. I would never hurt Naka, and because I know that you consider him a good friend I think we should try to be as well. There is a lot of things I know don't about being a friend so maybe you can help me work on that, and I can help you with the reading. And the best part is we can both irritate Naka together. Deal?"

Turning around slowly she looked at the group and realized that she had been given another gift today beside the sword, she had been given the gift of possible friends. Something that she thought she would never have. It was a good birthday indeed.

Miles scratched the weasel named Cyan’s shoulder blades. “If that had happened I may have accidently ended up throwing that weasel into the wall,” Miles said to Cyan, “It would have been in accident had that happened but it didn’t so let’s let bygones be bygones.” Miles thought about how this weasel was a student here to. He pictured the weasel sitting at a desk in class. It wouldn’t surprise him if he had to do that but it would be weird to watch a weasel doing the same schoolwork as you. “Is there any special reason you can talk?” Miles said to the weasel.

“We can practice later Naka,” Miles said to Naka before turning to the girl Sorcha. Considering that the girl Sorcha had complimented his work he said “Thank you for the approval. It’s fun to work on weapons.” Miles considered that the girl said that was smaller than another one she had made before. That meant this girl could pack a real punch if you weren’t prepared for it. “If you spread word I would most appreciate it.” He would try not to get on her bad side. She might make a good friend though. He decided it was time to put the weasel down and move on to his next work.

Nakata smiled when Sorcha hugged him and he kissed her cheek.
"The design specifications I chose were to fit the weapon for you perfectry. I wanted to make this your best birthday ever, but it's a little ear-Ly." He said happily. The fact was that she liked it, was more than enough to make the expenditure of the research ingredients worth it. In fact he was more than happy, simply for the fact that she had smiled. With control as the sword gave her, she might even be able to push her power just a little further. He had managed to keep himself from coming across as being too jovial... until he saw Miles scratching Cyan. Never in a million years, and this was most likely because of the fact that he talked... or because he was blue/green, would it ever have occurred to the Japanese student to pet Cyan, leading him to believe that he had been very much open minded to his arrival.
"Werr... I guess if you open your mind too much, your brain wirr farr out." He said out loud but to himself.

Tatsujin was glad he could act and happy about the device he had gotten. The question she had she had asked was to be expected, and he had gotten a nice brisk walk and managed to kill three beasts on his way here to think about his excuse. In the end, he decided the truth might be one of the best options.
"i was dumped here in the forest for having an ability and told good luck." He said, concealing his mission and placing an image in his head of getting pushed off of the helicopter and having parachute trouble. His voice was sweet as honey, he was an expert liar, trained in dealing with other people with powers, and made to hunt them down. This wasn't the first time he had lied to a telepath... assuming that's what she was, in fact the only ones he had trouble lying to were precogs. They tended to be able to see into the future... and some of them could see into the past which made them just so damned difficult to avoid killing, though he would be more than happy to eliminate this girl if she asked too many more questions. This remained hidden from his mind however as he continued to try to convey his innocence.
"I can bring the spirits of out objects and manipulate their form." He explained as he held the Ankh around his neck in shifted its form to that of a gleaming katana. He hadn't lied, it was one of his powers. After all, the best lies were often laced in truth.

Cyan looked up at Miles and grinned, "Heh, you're funny. I think I like you," he said matter-of-factly, "I can talk for the same reason I'm green, and the same reason you can talk. I was born that way. There could be more like me, but I'll never know. I was raised by a human lady, so yeah." Cyan had thought long about his ability to speak, and had come to the conclusion that it was of an entirely different nature than his powers. In response to Sorcha, once she finished addressing Miles, Cyan said, "Sorry about eavesdropping. And it's no prob, I'm guilty of the same. That is, Naka's mentioned your name before, and I didn't figure it out 'till, well, just now. Sorcha, right?" Cyan moved a bit closer to Sorcha once Miles put him down.

"If you want, you can use me as target practice in the future. He may be able to regenerate, but I'm downright indestructible, so it'll hurt less." Cyan caught himself as he realized that he might have been putting his nose too far into someone else's business again. "B-but that's up to you and him, of course," he corrected himself before his ears caught Naka's spoken thought.

"Yeah, we wouldn't want that. But you'd probably just grow back a new one, wouldn't you?" he said, turning toward Naka.

Sorcha looked at Tien awaiting her answer, "Excuse me Tien, just a minute"Sorcha listened to Naka, she still couldn't believe that he not only got her a present, but one that was specifically designed for her. That showed such thoughtfulness. She wasn't used to this kind of attention anymore. It had been so long since anyone had made an attempt to make her happy. "It doesn't matter that it was early Naka, just that it was given at all is a wonder to me. And I can guarantee you, it is my best birthday ever.

She ran her hands reverently over the sword and continued talking to him,
"I want to practice with my sword and work on control some more, I'm pretty excited to see how much I can intensify the effects now. I wonder if we can find some time to go somewhere safe and you can help me practice. We can even take the furry one with us too", indicating Cyan.

Miles decided to take this moment to work on his sword since he still had some of the food Naka gave him. He unsheathed the sword and placed it on the ground away from the others. He took the shock lizard’s blood and coated the blade of the sword in it. He then put his hand to the hilt of his sword and began to put his power into it. Once Miles saw the magic circle appeared he kept his power steady until the blood was soaked into the blade all the way. Sparks started to come off the blade when Miles finished with it. “That’s done,” Miles said and went back to eating.

“This will be interesting to watch,” Miles said, “I just hope the sword doesn’t get broken.” If something were to happen to the sword it would be a little depressing. The sword may have had the powers added onto it but that didn’t make it indestructible. He would just wait and see how this whole situation would end. Miles held his hand over his blade causing sparks to rise up. He then sheathed the blade so it couldn’t accidently zap someone when they got near it. Then thinking of what Sorcha said “Wait, that means I can’t come and Cyan can go?”

Nakata was more than happy to help Sorcha practice her powers. It would be good because he had come up with some combination attacks for them and this sword would help her do that.
"Of course you can come and watch. I'm going to try to institute the power I copied from you." He said. It would be a good chance to see how he used the gifts bestowed upon him.

———————————


Zetsuhiro watched his son from the shadows, fully concealed within them given one of his powers. Oh he knew about the scrolls, the ones created by gods to give humans the ability to be their champions, the one that both his and Naka's ancestor read over a thousand years ago that left the first born male of every generation with this ability. In Zetsu's case, it was precluded by the knowledge of how the world works on a level that escaped most.

He had also copied the power of another scroll, a power that he planned to share with Naka, but the rest of the scrolls would escape his son and he watched as he 'frolicked,' for lack of a better word, with his friends. With this, he would watch to see how he had progressed.
"Let's see if you are ready to handle the power of the lightning god." He thought to himself.

Cyan watched as Miles poured shock lizard blood on his sword. "Now that's just weird," he thought, until he saw the blood soaking into the sword and the resulting sparks, "Correction, that's plain awesome."

"Cool," he said when Sorcha told him he could come, "it'll be nice to actually DO something for a change, even though it is kinda late." Now that Cyan thought about it, it was a little cold out as well. His mind was taken away from the thought when Miles asked if he could come. "Oh, and can Tien come too?" he said as he remembered his goal of getting to know the fairy better, "We haven't had a real chance to really talk."

After hearing the response, Cyan remembered the cold again. "Um, hang on a sec," he said, looking toward the dorms, "Does anyone mind helping me get back to the dorm room? I think I need to get my doggie sweater." Cyan had purchased a sweater online, which was intended for a dachshund, but it still fit him. He wondered why he hadn't brought it before he went outside. "I could go myself, but it would probably just be faster if one of you long-legs, well, carried me."

Sorcha answered Cyan,"Of course Tien can come, in fact, the more the merrier." Looking at the fairy in question, she noticed that her color was a little off."Tien, are you feeling alright?, you don't look too good right now. Maybe you should stay here and go lie down."

As she walked to a bench to sit down she remembered what Cyan had just asked and in response she replied,"Oh, you won't need a sweater Cyan, I am sure I can help keep you warm, you do know that one of my shields becomes flames don't you? I have to get angry to create them, but with me, that might not be a problem, and you did offer to let me practice on you" She said this with a straight face, waiting to see if Cyan would offer himself up now.

She noticed that Miles was still eating and asked Naka,"You have anything left in that endless bag of food you carry around? Using my powers makes me awful hungry."
