Kindel Cain - Intro to Magicks

(Wow, this is totally going to be a lot more complicated than I thought.)

:: walks around the front of her desk and sits on the top of it ::

"Alright. It's obvious that many of you have a lot of different questions. I'll try to explain this as simple as I can. You're all here because you are special."

:: holds up her hand before anyone has a chance to interrupt ::

"Now, I'm sure most of you have been told that your whole life. But belive me when I say, none of you were special like you are now. You're Chosen. It used to be said that there was one girl in the whole world who had the strength and skill to hunt vampires. That's not true anymore. A powerful woman was able to take the magicks that made the Slayer who she was and channeled them into every girl who had the potential to be a slayer, to make her a slayer. Today, that girl is you."

:: stands up and begins to slowly pace the front of the classroom ::

" A group of these potentials were gathered before the spell. When they became Slayers, they were sent out and trained any new slayer they could find. That's where I come in. I was trained by one of the original slayers. Her name was Faith. She taught me to fight, to perfect my skills, to use weapons, and even to dabble in magick. After that, she left me on my own. I got a call from a man who told me about this place, The Academy. He wanted me to come and teach other girls what I know."

:: stops pacing and faces the girls, looking each of them in the eye as she continues ::

"You were each found, by a Shaman, because of your abilities. Whatever your backstories are, you're all here for the same purpose. You're going to learn to fight evil and you're going to do it in a classroom. So you're going to be taught like you would be in any other school. You are going to respect the rules like you would in any other school..."

:: looks over at Yale ::

"...and you will need supplies like you would at any other school. Any other questions?"

:: folds her arms across her chest in a slightly dramatic fashion ::

(Ok, they are so going to laugh at me for that one.)

:: shifts uncomfortably in her seat as she realizes what a stupid question she asked ::

(oh well, not going to let this bother me)

Yale- So I'm guessing we aren't going to be beating each other up in this class then?...heh...As everyone is probably very aware of, I haven't studied the magicks much, but I'm pretty excited about this class. ::looks around the class to make sure no-one is judging her::

(Come on Yale, you don't have to care about any one else's opinon..)
 
::mutters a laugh while nodding at Evie once more:: "Yeah, chosen? For real? And, you.." ::looks at Yale:: "Excited? I'm scared. I'll be the first to admit it. I've heard about what happens to slayers. They die out bloody quickly, how the hell can we prevent that?" (Too far, maybe. I can't help being scared..)
 
::makes an almost-disgusted look at evie's comment::

Yale- Magick is what this class is about, isn't it?

(take it easy, Yale, you don't want to start making enemies this early in the morning)

::turns to Eddie, thinking what a cool person she is::

Yale-I guess I don't really want to think about the consequences...I'm not that brave like you...able to admit that I'm scared... ::trails off::
 
:: Turns to Yale and Eddie ::

"Theres nothing to be scared about, there are thousands of us now, we're not special, if you dont want to take the risk, go."
 
::smiles softly at Yale:: "I know.. it's difficult sometimes, I guess. I've been brave for like.. ever. But now, I'm just terrified."

::nods at Cassie approvingly::

::turns to Kindel:: "So. Magicks, huh?" ::smiles in an uncertain fashion::
 
::turns to Evie quickly:: "Actually, my life sucked. To be blunt about it. Being introduced to all this mystical crap, is kinda different to guns and knives. I can handle that stuff.."
 
:: clears her throat ::

"Ok, that's enough."

:: moves back behind her desk ::

"I understand that some of you are scared and some of you are more...eager."

:: looks at Evie then back to the rest of the girls ::

"But there is something you all have in common. You're all here. That means you all care enough to want to do something. It's ok if you're scared. It's ok if you don't know what you're getting into. It's also ok if you want to fight the whole world. You're here to learn to become everything a slayer can be. Part of that learning includes magicks. And we wil be fighting in this class. We do, however, have a ways to go before that day. We're going to start out by introducing ourselves. I know you've done that a little, but we want to hear more about you. How would you describe yourself? What's your biggest weakness? What do you look forward to learning the most? Evie, why don't you start? Then Cassie, Yale, and last, Eddie."

:: motions for Evie to proceed ::
 
:: Rolls eyes and turns to teacher interrupting her::

"Ok, I didnt come here to make friends or listen to random girls life stories, are we having a lesson today?"
 
Evie: How do I feel? I feel like this is a huge waste of time, I was doing fine on my own before I came here. My weaknesses? I dunno. Why don't you tell me? All I want to do is kill something, OK? It's what I'm good at. It's what I'm used to.
 
:: looks severly at Evie her temper rising, but realizes she is still in class ::

Yale-I want to learn how to become a slayer, a fighter. I know nothing about the magicks, or how to use a knife. I did live a sheltered life, and I know I might not be thought of as the bravest or the most fiesty...I guess I just want to win. That's what's important her, right?

::rolls eyes dramatically:: "Ha. Evie, we're gonna have problems. I'm not here to tell my sob story, but you were asking. That's fair, right?"

::shuffles in chair:: "So.. introductions?"
