Cecil was five years old when his mother died from a deadly disease, and his father from a war. But his brother was eight years older than Cecil. And much more skilled at his powers than his little brother. Cecil was left alone and unwanted. No one to care or love him. Cecil grew up fast, and as Cecil did, his heart grew cold towards all people. It's now seven years later.He was enlisted in an academy, that his parents had put him into.He met many people there...... so many, some people wanted to be him.Cecil didn't care. The sensi he had now, he had known for a while since he started the school and was bumped up to his class.He was placed in a high leveled class, where one other person made it through. She thought highly of him, even when Cecil ignore her dumb comments. Even now, he heard her and his teacher calling.

A figure appeared out of the mist , wearing loose black pants and a dark red shirt, with a bulky black cloak. His eyes were bound with a red blindfold, and his skin was a jet black, so it was easy to see where a person would miss him in the gloom. Longish spiky brown locks framed his face and eyes...er blindfold... "You, you're a student?" he asked, his voice uncaring and calm. Many an odd alone child had stood awkwardly at these docks... this one was no exception.

Cecil just stood looking out into the misty waters below him as his black hair blew from side to side. His hands were in his pockets. He didn't even give him a glance, he turned away and said " yea." A small, far away figure of his other 'classmate' stood in front of him, yelling his name and waving her hand. Hm. when will you learn Shana. We're in a class together; nothing more. Cecil thought. As Cecil went off the dock he was on, all he could do was give a meaningless smile to make her happy. He continued to walk as she stayed behind. All Cecil could hear now was a slurred babble from Shana. The normal routene. A bunch of talking and then their teacher would come; she would straighten up and listen. Then would stare at Cecil.

Cecil suddenly realized what Shana was probably telling him. Her middle-length hair that went to her elbows was suddenly gone. The freckle faced girl had hair up to her chin now. Cecil didnt care, but it was however, noticable. "Very nice." someone called out. It was that voice. Cecil froze for a minute. A flashback came to his mind. An illusion of their teacher appeared from the darkness of ther fog. Cecil knew this trick, he'd seen it once before. He's.... here..... but ....why? Cecil asked himself. A man came up to Cecil. His gaze was like pure death, and he blended in with the fog. " Imposter." Cecil murmured. "Sensi*!" Shana replied, not seeing the difference between the people. " It's a trick Shana. How can you not see this!?" Cecil yelled. THe illusion wore off and showed the real man behind it. He looks just like Cecil! Shana thought. His short hair came to his ears and the jet black bangs swept over his eyes as the wind blew around. "Cecil." he said. "Dali." Cecil replied back, his gaze fixed on his brother. " Its been a while. Dali was his older brother, but had abandoned the family years before the deaths of their parents. Cecil couldnt bare the thought of his brother. He hated his brother with all his heart.The one obstacle Cecil had with Dali was his brother himself. All his father would talk about is Dali. When his mother was alone with him after school one day, she saw a few cuts and asked Cecil to stay out for a minute. She bent down to look at his arm, and smiled. " Ill be a minute Cecil." she reasured him. His mother was a pretty woman. Her long brown hair came to her hips and was always braided in the back. although a few stray locks fell out when she'd clean and cook while they were gone. Her hazel eyes were on a glow all the time. She was the only one who really talked to him and made him happy. She was a cheery person when she felt like being one. "What do you want?" Cecil asked angerily. "I heard this is where you got dumped at." his brother replied. "Shana, get out of here." Cecil said in a almost worried and demanding voice. Another flashback of Sensi* or his teacher came into his mind. A large man walked up to the six year old Cecil. " What are you doing out here? " he asked. Cecil had been out in a forest practicing for class the next day. He was just about over his limitations, but continued to train himself. " Whats it to you Rloea Sensi*?" Cecil asked throwing a dagger at a old tree trunk. (his old teacher at the time) Cecil was weak from doing it for so long. He fell to the ground, and suddenly felt a hand lift him up onto his feet. " How about you come with me."he told him. The darkness of the night started to creep in around them. " I have advanced you to another teacher. I am also one of his friends." the man told him. "Ok then." Cecil replied. Dali threw a dagger at Cecil. Dali..... you- " Cecil said as he saw blood come from his arm. Dali just smiled.

(Um... assuming that there's this weird imposter threatening you and some other kid I could care less about....)
The teacher wasn't exactly sure who this odd impersonater was, and not one to violence so quickly, he simply walked in between the students and the man.
"Is there any reason you're here?" he asked the man flatly, wondering what color the man's blood was.

"He's my little brother." Dari stated. " CECIL!" Shana yelled seeing him get cut. " I'm just fine Shana, stop getting so jumpy." He told her. " Now if you excuse us Sensi*." Dali said. Dali turned away, passing the fact that the other man was 'protecting' the two of them. Cecil passed their teacher and ran at his brother iwth his dagger pointed at him.

The teacher was next to Cecil in a second, and had a gloved hand tightly around the kid's arm. He inwardly sighed; it was going to be one of /those/ students. "If you want to go to this school, I suggest you follow me," he informed him, though not unkindly. "Any revenge you're planning on will be much more impressive after you graduate." "Are you attending as well?" he asked the girl and Dali. If 'Dali' wanted to play, he was quite allowed, but on their own time, because he had a class to teach soon.

"I already graduated from the place." Dali responded. Shana nodded. " The HELL! Let go!!" Cecil shouted tugging his arm out of the teachers clutch. " Foolish younger brother....." Dali said calmly. "I supppose you don't remember me Sensi*" Dali said giving a flashback to the teacher. He taught this kid's brother long ago. " Now, I just want to talk to my younger brother." he said walking up to Cecil. Shana saw him come closer and she shook stepping back.

"I've taught more students than I'd ever care to remember. Talk to him if you want, but I'll say it again, if you want to come to this school, then come. You've got a minute or so before I leave without you," he said to Cecil, looking at the stars as a clock. Looking back at Dali he said, "And I won't accept any more bloodshed," in a flat yet dangerous tone. An hourglass appeared in his hands, sand trickling steadily down into the bottom half, and as he said, they had about a minute or two.

Cecil just turned away, like he forgot about Dali. A blast of energy wooshed by the teacher and Shana as Cecil went back, dagger and all, at a charge to Dali. Dali punched Cecil's stomach and kicked him after the punch. Cecil spit out a little bit of blood as he hit the ground. " That all you got bastard!" Cecil yelled at his brother. Cecil got up shaky, and maybe a few hurt bones, but relentlessly, got up and threw his dagger at him. Dali picked Cecil up by the throat. "Foolish little brother..... " Dali said in Cecil's ear. " Why do you live here, doing nothing useful?" Cecil got angry and went to attack Dali, but he only squeezed his younger brothers throat tighter. " I killed father." Dali whispered. His bangs covered his eyes as the wind blew. Dali's blood red eyes gazed deep into Cecil. Cecil winced once he heard this, and he knew if he moved, then more pain would come; but he had to fight back. Dali released his grip and Cecil fell to the ground. Shana turned around at the sound of Cecil's yell. " Cecil!" she said running back to him. " How could you?! " Cecil's cold hardened eyes shut after a scream of pain, and he was unconcious.

The teacher sighed, as if dealing with two idiotic toddlers that wouldn't stop pulling each other's hair. He did in kind, picking up Dali by the hair to eye level, which was pretty high considering the teacher's hieght. "Don't mess with me. Leave," he said. He let Dali fall. Student abuse? Myess indeed. Picking up unconcious Cecil, he started walking across the lake, his feet a few inches above the water.

Dali calmly nodded and disappeared. He was not afraid, but he was to come back later. Cecil's navy shirt was ripped at the shoulder, where dry blood sat. Not only was he banged up, but trama to his body mentally was not so good. He was a suborn kid. He was definitly like his brother. Only, not so creepy. "Will he be alright?!" Shana asked. Why didnt I see this coming? She asked herself. A tear ran down her cheek. Her short hair flowed behind her as the red collared sweater she had on moved once she turned her neck to go into the building.

He.... wont get away...... with this.... Cecil thought. Cecil gripped his shoulder tight as pain felt like it was sucking the life out of him. His ribs were probably messed up as well. Cecil tried to sit up but it hurt too much.

The teacher felt the kid shifting, so he stuffed a small pill in his mouth, made by one of the school Healers. That should make him right, eventually. "Hey kid, I've got to get your schedule. There are the set classes, but also there's also Holy, Samurai, Puppetmaster, Music, and Life Skills as the optional classes. Pick what you want."

" Can't I... do that... later-" Cecil asked still in the teachers arms. Cecil consealed his pain. His arm was pretty bad, his shoulder was extremely hard to move. Cecil's navy blue shirt rippled at the collar as the wind went through his shirt. Every move and breath felt out of porportion to him.
