One girls beginning

[alyxchan]

She nodded and ran after him, losing her balance but quickly regaining it. "So how far to this Acadamy?" she asked shyly. She looked around waiting for his answer. She noted how there was hardly any birds singing.

[Angelus]

"The academy is only a few minutes across the lake. If it was not so foggy out, light from the academy would be able to be seen from here. Now hold on. We are about to begin."

Ly sander muttered something under his breath and the creature began to shift its body. Its muscles tightened as its body spun around and face the lake. Suddenly, the creature began to move swiftly through the water with very little resistance. The cool air became cold as the winds whipped through Lysander's hair. He held tightly on the creature's neck as they made their way through the water.

Suddenly, in the distance, a large wave appeared from nowhere amongst the glassy surface of the lake. The wave came towards the creature, Alyx, and Ly sander at an amazing speed. The wave collided with the largatha and knocked him over. As the creature capsizes, Lysander quickly jumped off into the cold lake.

"Hurry Alyx," he said, "jump before you are crush."

[alyxchan]

She jumped off after him "What the heck?" she screamed then turned to face him "What just happened?! I thought you said it was safe!" she screamed looking around for anything that might attack. She heard the waves crashing on the shore they had just left. She continued to look around as she felt something slip from her pocket. ~Dang it~ she thought diving after the item.

[Angelus]

"This should have been a safe ride," Lysander yelled as he tried to keep his body on the surface of the water. With all of his robes on, it was very hard to keep his body up.

"There is something wrong, but we may have time to still get to the other side." He glanced over his shoulder to see that the shores of the academy were only a few feet away from where they were at the current moment. He quickly began to swim until he felt the sandy shore and walked up on it. "Hurry...there is something in the water. Come here!"

[alyxchan]

She barely managed to recover the small item that had fallen from her pocket. She resurfeced{sp?} in time to hear 'something in the water. Come here!' from him. She looked at the water then at him. She swam as fast as her small-ish arms would carry her. "What...What is it?" she asked, placing the item in her pocket.

[Angelus]

Lysander pulled Alyx away from the lake's edge as fast as he could. He turned quickly to look into the dark lake to see a small disturbance only a few feet from Alyx was just at. A large fin, approximately 10 feet high, surfaced from the water for only a second and then plunged back into the water.

"Oh my god. I believed those creatures were extinct. The giant sharks of the lake were found to have disappeared years ago. It looks like they are coming back. They are very dangerous creature. Not only are they fast, they are incredibly smart and thus deadly. I suggest that you stay out of the water from now on."

"Anyway...time to figure our your schedule:

For the first 6 periods of the day, everyone will have the same schedule:
1: Magic
2: Weaponry
3: Alchemy
4: Beastry
5: Master
6: BREAK

Then comes the optional classes.

For period 7 classes, students choose ONE of the three:
Music, History, Potionry

For period 8 classes, students choose ONE of the three:
Holy, Flare, Summoning

For period 9 classes, students choose ONE of the three:
Dragoon, Samurai, Thievery

For period 10 classes, students choose ONE of the two:
Puppetmaster, Survival

I will give you a second to decide."

[alyxchan]

"G-giant shark?!" she squeaked, then looked up at the man who had pulled her to safety. "Umm...Period seven I would like music...period eight I would like...summoning...period nine I choose hmm...thievery. And for period ten...puppetmaster sounds good." she said standing up, smiling. "So now what?" she asked looking at him.

[Angelus]

Lysander waved his hand in the air and a small piece of paper appeared in mid-air. "Here you go," he said, "on this paper is your final schedule so make sure you do not lost it or you will not know which class to go to next."

---------Alyx Receives her Final Schedule----------

1: Magic
2: Weaponry
3: Alchemy
4: Beastry
5: Master
6: BREAK
7: Music
8: Summoning
9: Thievery
10: Puppetmaster

"Now before you go," Lysander said, "I think you deserve a gift for your troubles." He pulled out a small, blue orb.

----------Alyx Receives the Orb of the Ocean----------

Orb of the Ocean
A small, blue orb possessing the power of the ocean
Using this orb, the caster can summon a large water current to be cast against enemies. Remember, the orb does take energy to wield and may cause the caster to become incredibly weak.

[alyxchan]

"Thank you" she said taking the schedule. She looked it over before putting it in her pocket. She looked at the orb next. "Wow..." she whispered rubbing it to make it shine. "I'll take excellent care of it" she said with a beaming smile. And with that, she ran to the academy.
