Hallways and Corridors

Frost Tigress

Shawn looked up. "Maybe in eight or so years if we are still here, she could decide. I plan on getting rid of the council somehow, but it isn't possible as of right now."

"I see I might not be teaching by then anyway. This is just a job until I get my sister through school. I want to go find different artifacts from different times and cultures," he said realizing something. "About that boy, can you tell me how he got the darkness within him?" he asked.  

[Aelavi]

Shawn nodded in understanding. "I get that. And about the boy, I don't know enough to say for sure, but he said something about being a vessel for a dark entity since he was little."  

[RikaSuoh]

Arthur was sure he had read something like this before in one of his textbooks.
"I see. Then this will end up worse if we do nothing. He'll be unable to control it
and probably end up just as dangerous as the beasts. if there was some sort of
ritual involved then there might be a relic that can slow down the process but
I'm not totally sure if there is a way to stop it once the ritual was complete."
They passed another hallway. He started to think harder hoping something
would come to mind. "I think I might actually have the relic in my collection that I
brought with me."

 

[Aelavi]

Shawn looked at him. "Really? Let's hurry and get the body to the infirmary so you can go check and I can send out a school announcement.  

[RikaSuoh]

"Well, its only if the dark entity was transferred to him through ritual. If he was
born with it as a sort of reincarnation then nothing I have will work." Arthur
started getting excited over the subject. "If it was a ritual that I'd have to go see
the people who did this and learn what I can. This ritual is a part of ancient
magic," then he calmed down again. "But I wonder if it was in fact done by ritual
how many others has it been tried on?" Arthur saw the third hall coming up. "Am
I supposed to turn onto the third hallway or do i pass it and turn on the fourth
one?"

 

[Aelavi]

"I think it was transferred, though I'm not positive." Shawn looked at his map. "Third hallway, I think. My map is unreadable..." Shawn looked embarrassed. "I know you probably think I should know my way around this place by heart, but I don't really get to explore it much."  

[RikaSuoh]

Athur could feel the corpse growing heavier and colder as they walked. "I see
then. I'll go check my collection after we put her down. Though, I think we
should put up wards to keep spirits from trying invade her body." He said. he
was a very superstitious person and some of it was due to his studying in Japan
for a while. "No its fine. This place is probably too big to know every nook and
cranny of it."

 

[Aelavi]

Shawn saw a door and led Arthur to it. The sign was worn, but still faintly read 'Infirmary'. "Here" He pulled out a key and unlocked it.  

[RikaSuoh]

Arthur followed Shawn. When the door was open he walked inside the room
and set down the body on one of the beds. He took off his shirt that had gotten
blood on it. "I'll leave this here. I wont wear it again anyway." He took one last
look at her, "Poor girl, I hope you get to rest in peace." He turned to shawn. "I'm
gonna go back to the dorms to check my relics. I'll let you know if I find
something," she said as he started for the door.

 

[Aelavi]

Shawn nodded. "Call up to my office if you do." He let Arthur leave before he himself left, looking back once and turning the thermostat down to freezing. "I will do all in my power." He then left the room and locked the door behind him.

Tsukiko walked the lonely halls of the school she wasnt really enrolled as a student but she had to be here in order to find a new master to serve. She rubbed her irritated wrists where she still had the the leather cuffs with a few links of the chains that were binding her. It was all part of being a servant and there was nothing she could do to change her position since wasnt good at doing anything.  

[Karma Lovelace]

Monster timidly poked his head out of his dorm room and looked around to both ends of the hallway. Seeing everyone in the halls were preoccupied with their own business, he timidly scurried out. Monster had doused his clothing in men's deodorizing body spray in hopes to keep people from smelling his true scent. The body spray had worked, the smell of decay and dirt was minuscule at most. However, he reeked of the deodorant and if anyone noticed the smell, they would still be drawn to the boy's strange looks and potentially be afraid of the dead boy walking their halls.

Monster clutched his messenger bag as he walked as close to the far wall as possible to the classroom area. Unfortunately, the nervous boy tripped and lost all of his books from his bag. He fell to his knees and immediately scuttled about to find all of the books.  

[RikaSuoh]

Tsukiko turned a corner in time to see a boy picking up his books. She walked
toward him and helped pick up some of the books. She didn't do it to be kind or
anything it was just a habit. "Be careful," she said as she walked away. She
didnt even bother to really take a look at him. She was on a mission to find her
master. That would have to be the one who was emitting a strange presence
not too long ago. She also had to search the forest which itself felt a little
strange.

 

[Karma Lovelace]

Monster attempted to stammer a gracious thank you, but the girl had left before he could say anything. He contemplated following her to thank her, but was too afraid she'd be scared of him. Monster figured their paths would cross once again later in the school year. Besides, she had seemed intent on going the direction she was headed. So Monster quickly shifted his weight upward, clicked his bag closed, and speed-walked to the classrooms, being careful not to walk into any of the other students.
