Beach Time (open)

[Sidra]

Sidra took in a deep breath through her nose and let it out slowly through her mouth. Her black eyes were shut, revealing her long eyelashes, still something to contrast against her cream skin that was exposed as much as her black bikini bathing suite would allowed. She listened to the roar of the ocean...

Whosh...Crash...Whosh..Crash...

It reminded Sidra of a heart beat, the heart beat of Solstice Academy. "soon..some time soon i wont have one any more" she mumbled lightly to her self and opened her eyes. Her eyes wandered across the ocean, across the horison and then down to the sand to a leather messenger bag next to her. Sidra carefully neeled down and opened the front flap of the bag and pulled out a CT scan of a brain, the brain seemed normal except for a large white form towards the back of the brain.

Her fingers tingled like shards of metal where stuck in every nerve ending of her body. She gave a wince as she started digging a hole in the sand, and when the hole was big enough she put the CT scan in it and then she covered it with sand. "No ones gonna know, ok sid, no ones gonna know" she said to her self as she eventually smoothed out the spot with her foot.

"Im gonna enjoy my life!" she said stretching her arms out and declaring it to the sea. She let out a scream and then charged the ocean, the water was cool and carefree and soon up to her waist as she swished her arms back and fourth. "ahhh its soo nice!" she exclaimed happily and then dived down and swam about the shallow waters.

[blackfox]

Kaze sighed as he walked around the solstice grounds, looking at the architecture and the grounds. He took in every sight, sound and smell he could. "reminds me of home" he thought. "reminds me of what was left to love about my home" he also thought as he clenched his fist as a strong wind blew around him. He walked out towards the ocean to look and noticed somebody was already there. "wonder who else is out here" he said to himself.

He smiled enjoying the cool breeze of the ocean. He walked over and stood near the water looking out at the sun gleaming off the ocean surface. "this is a good place to be" he said as he looked out and then he looked over to was out there with him. "wonder who she is" he said.

[Sidra]

Sidra was twirling around in the water now, feeling the cool water skim across her fingertips and turn in to small pearls of sparkles. The water droplets spiraled around her as she spun before crashing back in to the blue waters. This simple action made her forget the more serious things for a short while and let her be able to relax for a moment.

She let out a loud bolstering laugh when she finished spinning and now was facing back towards the island, there was a tall figure, a boy about the same age as her standing there on the shore. Her head tilted to the side and then she waved to him, using her whole arm. She began wading back towards the island till the water was at her ankles. "Hello" she smiled to him, having to look up due to the two foot height difference.

[blackfox]

Kaze looked down at the wet girl and dint make any facial gestures at all. "hello" kaze said not very warmly as he went back to admiring the water. "sure is a nice day isnt it" he looked to her again with a ponderous look "have your powers ever scared anyone?" he looked to her with a sullen look in his eyes.

[Sidra]

Sidra watched him give mediocre ancwers, "is every guy my age that i meet as cold as you?" she asked with the tilt of her head, placing her hands on her small hips. She let out a sigh and looked back towards the horizon. "No not mine, but my younger brother, he is terrified of him self. He cant look at him self in the mirror with out it shattering and him running scared. The poor boy has Jinx powers that he has no control over, it kills everthing that he loves...actually it just kills everything" she said gravely and then looked back at the tall boy. He had a lovely face, nice bone structure and muscle tone for being so tall.

"Why do you ask? im not ever going to be scared of you, and if you want i will never abandon you" she smiled, remembering what she would say to her brother every morning when they would wake up. "oh and I'm Sidra by the way" she nodded and went to her sidesaddel bag and pulled out a carten of ciggeretts and a lighter.

[blackfox]

kaze looked at her very suprised at her bluntness "sidra huh pretty name" he said as he looked back out at the ocean "names kaze" he said "and no not everyone is cold btu i guess my past kinda haunts me.....hard to be warm..." he said as he looked to ehr and gave a small attempted smile.

"so you have a brother huh?" he asked questionably."and he has jinx powers? that kinda sucks, guess this school is full of wacky powers" he said as he once again looked out at the see as he breathed in and out as a small soothing gust of wind passes him. "so...that begs me to ask...what can you do?" he said as he looked at the girl pulling out ehr smokes.

[Sidra]

Sidra sat down on to the sand bringing the cigarette up to her lips and lighting the front of it and then she took a drag of it and then blew the smoke out of her nose. "Kaze huh, where are you from? one of the islands?" she asked referencing to the Hawaiian islands. She ruffled her hair lightly in her attempt to dry it off. "i guess everybody here has a past that haunts them, the only thing i can think of to say is just look to the future" she said with a shrug takeing another puff of her cig.

She watched him talk, she felt so small next to him, especally with him standing and her sitting. "hm? oh its useless to me by myself but i can grant other people wishes and i can shuffle randomly through powers." she smiled to him offering him the pack, in order not to be rude if he actually smoked as well. "what about you Kaze? what can you do?"

[blackfox]

"ya i am actually...good catch, and sometiems the future isnt always bright....dark and uncertain" he said a she looked down and took a ciggarette and lit it up "grant wishes huh.so do you come with a lamp or what?" he said with a slight chuckle.

"i have a few powers myself....earth in a way manipulate forms of energy but mainly wind....the other two i dont have great control of even wind is shakey sometimes" he said a she took another drag. "everyone here seems very reclusive to me." he said looking down to her and shrugged deciding to sit down next to her, "least its someone to talk to" he thought.

[Sidra]

Sidra laughed loudly, her usual loud boastering laugh, at his lamp crack. "no i come with a magical nap sack" she smiled and pointed to the leather side saddle bag. "Wind and other things, well that can be verry useful" she smiled to him warmly and took another drag.

"here you can hone in those powers and make them stable, you should see the control of the teachers, its crazy!" she laughed then looked up at him, he was still huge in comparasion to her, but sidra will always be 4'4'' and thats how she dose things. "and the uncertanty of the future is what makes it exciting and worth living for" she grinned at him before looking back at the ocean, "its so calm, it realy helps forgetting for a while"

[blackfox]

laughs at her comment "i see" looks back out at the open sea"forgetting is all i had for awhile....the future is something i always hoped id have set in stone but then catastrophe always has to hit you know" his cig burns out as hes looking to the sea lost in thought.

"i wanna hone my powers more than anything..." he says as he clenches his fist as wind surrounds it "for reasons other than just control.." he said with venom in his words "im just glad i emt someone who isnt shunning me right away" he laughs as he says it "i just worry when i lose control....when my powers go haywire..thats why people are scared of me" he said as he looks down at the dirt pushing some dirt aside and throwing the cig butt in it. "your really nice you know that" he smiles a bit a she looks to her.

[Sidra]

Sidra also threw her bud in to its shallow grave. "Well being mean helps noone, there's no point in going out of your way to be mean to people or shun them, so why bother" she grinned and rested her head on her knees. "and thankyou for talking to me, most people end up having me just have a conversation with my self" she laughed lightly.

"but people shouldnt shun you here, becuse they have been hunted, and shunned and ostricised from most of sociity, so they understand what it feels like and look for exceptacne from people like them selves. There are more nice people here so dont worry" she smiled to him and ruffled his hair back in to the way it was before the wind blew.

[blackfox]

"heh"he scoffed "you have a very optimistic attitude about things...if people knew what ive been through...they would understand why i act how i do" he once again said with venom in his words. "but you keep the way you think sidra...its more of a blessing than you know" he said as the wind swirled around her as he smiled and stood up stretching.

"i wish it was as easy as you say for me to act the way you do...but reality is i cant as of now" he sighed as he said it and then looked back down to her and smiled "and thank you for talking to me i thought i was gunan have to sit in my own little corner this entire schoolyear..means alot" he offered out his hand "where you off to and need a hand up?" he said with a slight happiness in his voice.

[Sidra]

Sidra listened to him speak and then took his hand "ive had dark things in my life, being optimistic is the only thing i can do." she smiled, she didnt want to tell him of how she was going to die soon, how she couldnt feel anything in her limbs anymore due to her cancer. She gave him a smile as she patted the sand off of her self.

"well i was going to bring Jubil, my brother to the library, other than that i dont know" she took up her side saddle bag and then walked up close to him almost two inches from him and then measured her hight to his, she came right under his chest, about where his stomach was. "Damn your tall" she said looking up at him and smileing "but im glad that you feel slightly better" she gave a wide grin to him.

[blackfox]

"heh height runs in my family...i guess like short runs in yours" he said as he laughed and stomped his foot as the ground under her rose up. "being tal isnt all its cracked up to be ya know" he said as he slightly smiled at her dorkiness. "and if you wan an escort ill gladly walk with you there" he smiled again "better than being alone thats for sure, and maybe i can meet this jubil ive heard so much about" he giggled as he said it

[Sidra]

Sidra lost her balance as he brought the earth up and made her as tall as him. "Oh GEze!" she said her face flushing and her hands flying up to his shoulders and gripping tight "sorry, im actually afraid of heights, and things moving me with out me actually moving" she smiled to him, shaking almost. "But yea, you can meet jubil, he doesn't talk much and i don't know how he would react to you, sometimes he likes people some times he doesn't" she said with a shrug. Welcoming the change in company other than her brother. "Besides, your realy good to talk to" she laughed.

[blackfox]

"i apologize" as he laughed and the earth drops back down into the ground."well well have to see i guess wont we" he smiled she was really ncie and it gave him soemthing to think about other than his own life. it was a nice needed break "well then shall we?" as he held out arm like a gentleman as he laughed a bit. "especially since i have no idea where were going"

[Sidra]

Sidra took her arm "Shall we skip and sing were off to see the wizard?" she laughed and pointed in to the direction of the dorms, where her brother was mostlikely reading or playing vidieo games. "see isnt it fun to just think about the now?" she smiled to him as they began walking to the largest building in the island.

[blackfox]

"yes yes we should..well depends is your brother the wizard?" he said as he laughed "and it isnt the now im happy to be thinking about its ncie to think about something othe than my own life." he said as he smiles down at her "you need to wear heels or something your much much too tiny " as he laughed at the comment

[Sidra]

Sidra gave a shrug, "Well, he dose have Jinx powers, that have been known to act like black magic, so i suppose he could be a wizard" she laughed as they began approaching the man planted greenery. Sidra gave Kaze a look for the heals comment. "Well maby you should start slouching over, cuz your a giant" she said puffing out her cheeks. Besides she allready was wearing heals...

[blackfox]

"slouch over? thats bad for my back, i wouldnt do that to myself" kaze said as he laughed "eh dont worry about it your fine, short isnt a bad thing" he smiled as he looked down at her

[Sidra]

"No, just sometimes inconvenient" she laughed and hedbutted his arm. "Yea, see im barely above your elbow." she said with a mock froun, Sidra began to wonder why height was the subject they were talking about and decided she wanted to change it...gradually. "so, what did you have to eat to make you so tall? people in iceland are the tallest people in the world because of dairy products." she said serving a bit, in a goofy manner.

[blackfox]

"really now" he said as he looked at her oddly "random piece of information" he said looking forward "is there something else youd like to talk about that isnt height related?" he said as he figured so because of the bizarre manner that was asked along with the information with it.

"like jubil why doesnt he like people? he just shy or...what?" he looked to ehr very questionably. "would you want me to carry you?" he said laughing "might be alot faster...no offense" ashe kept admiring the building structure as they walked. "and how and why did you get put in this school anyway?..sorry alot of questions i know" he smile das he looked to the sky.

[Sidra]

Sidra got somewhat quiet for a moment as she thought about Juibl. "Well.." she started out slowly looking down at the ground as she thought "He's not a bad person, hes rude sometimes, and insults people but thats just Jubil. His powers are scary, and they do bad things, they make people sick and natural desasters happen, and sometimes non natural. And he dosnt like people becuse he is afrade he will hurt them" she said as she thought about it for a moment, she knew jubil was the reason she was sick. But she loved him with all of her heart .
Sidra looked up at the sky and then at him, she then streched up her arms to him. "Fine then pick me up, if you thing im going so slow" she said in a mock grumbling voice.

[blackfox]

kaze raidsed his eyebrows " fine i will" kaze kneeled down and got her on his back as his powers lifted him slightly off theground as it was like he was skating across the ground. "we goin the right way?" kaze asked. "i hope jubil likes me, if i cna get him to understand he wont hurt me, i think well be ok" he said with a smile."im sure thats difficult though"he said as his mouth tilted laughibly.

[Sidra]

Sidra wrapped her arms about his neck loosely and pointed in the direction. "That big building, your like a crazy huver craft..." she thought out loud as she watched him glide across the air. "You should get a surf board and surf the clouds or something" she laughed.

Sidra gave a shrug "i don't know, he's diffrent with diffrent people. He's not that good with boys, i think its called a sibling complex?" she wondered out loud.
