Patience.....patience.......look a the clock nervously.....Why wasn't the girl there yet? Did she somehow decide not to go?
Jellon's amethyst eyes ran up and down from his paper to the large clock on the wall inside the classroom. He was a jittery fellow, invisble rimmed glasses on his face with the metal supports clinging against the backs of his ears, and a very old look about him. On the contrary, his age was much younger then his appearance....bad side of the gene pool, you see.
Tap...tap....tap... tap. tap. tap tap...tap tap tap tap.....SLAM! The clipboard was forced out of his hands and onto the desk with a crashing boom. His impatience grew as his student had been extremely late as time passed. Poor Jellon, for his nevers were sadly uncontrolably spastic and at an all time high.
"DANG FLABBIT!" he echoed in the empty classroom alone, the window so high above him it seemed like it had never brought daylight upon the earth yet, that it was still the late night hours. Waves of pale blue hair against the pale skinned man flew out of it's pulled back ponytail to reveal naturally stuck-out head of hair. Did he ever mention how he absolutely HATES lateness? Well, there you have it. Jellon's cream trench coat flew up in the back as his spine bent into a curve as his fingers went bright white with tension against the paper on the light-weighted clipboard now clattering against the hard oak desk in the far corner of the room.

Rain darted into the room breathless, as she had been running in circles attempting to find the class. "I'm sorry," She breathed, "I had a few issues and then I couldn't find the class." Her apology was genuine and her cat-like ears were bent flat against her head in embarassment. Frustrated tears appeared in her eyes. She hated being late for things as it seemed to leave such a bad impression on people.

Jellon's (who's name was almost JELLO XD) temper cooled as he came to see the girl finally arrived. Only some of his ponytail had kept intact, and the rest fell around his face.
There was a pause as those piercing amythest eyes put them directly on her, his fingers immediatly releasing the tension they held. "Well, I'm glad you could make it, Miss. Whisperer. It seems as though you got......lost? No matter, I suppose it's better you're in the room then not at all...." he said while pushing his glasses up from the brim of his nose. Jellon looked forty- he was currently twenty-five and very much a wreck if it wasn't for a glorious thing called therapy. (xD)
"So, I've been told that you're late Master Teacher has been called away- and will no longer be here. I'm to take over the class at least until they find another teacher...." Jellon had come from his desk and walked over to his student. "My name is Jellon. So, what kind of elements do you specialize in, per say?"

Rain watched Jellon as he spoke, and she began to relax. She had to fight herself to keep from smiling as she noticed Jellon's name seemed so very close to the word 'Jello'. "Uhm, alright. Well, I specialize in fire and recently found I can freeze things by withdrawing heat from them." Rain answered. She stared at Jellon, and one ear twitched slightly for no reason at all.

Jellon caught the snicker withdrawl and dismissed it. Wasn't it a few years ago that he himself was doing silly things like that? Heh, those good ole' days! A more welcoming, secretly UBER COOL personality within the man became more apparent as he felt as calm as he should have been this whole time.
That, however; did not include the natural mental instability that made him constantly move for the most part...tapping- clicking- pacing- something. A habit and a genetic curse.A small chuckle escaped him. "Don't cry, please. I'm already feeling like a failure as a teacher..." he mumbled, a wince creasing his aged forehead.
"Okay, that's good. Very good." he answered louder as to sound louder then what he quickly said to himself.

Rain frowned, easily hearing what Jellon had mumbled. Not being good with comforting people, she shifted on her feet. "I promise I won't cry.." She said softly. Rain's gaze drifted nervously around the room although she didn't see anything that seemed noteworthy. Then again, a quick look over doesn't exactly reveal all. Her gaze returned to Jellon, "So uhm... What exactly are we going to do?" She asked, her voice was super quiet and held her nervousness.

He didn't have anything planned with the time they had left.....so he should probably give her the orb...even if she had one already. He was told to give it to her until something could be sorted...and they'd then be able to get in something similar to a lesson.
"Well, I know you may have one of these already- but here. Try using this. It will boost up your elemental skills some before I see how good you are already." Jellon sighed, handing over the fist sized orb to the girl. So close up with him, you could tell something had happened to him that changed his appearance- but Jellon himself had forgotten about all that stuff.....Blue waves swayed under the airconditioning vent in the ceiling that balanced the temperature in the room to something reasonable, the other hand in his trench pocket.
He wanted to teach. Now he finally was!

Rain took the orb and studied it for a moment. "Any err... Trigger words I ought to worry about? Side effects such as rapid hair loss or loss of toes?" Her eyes remained on the orb as she asked the question. It was always good to be weary of such things here and she had heard some odd rumors around the halls...
((>.< Why can't I think of anything decent to write? Brain fart...))

"Just know that if you can't control the input and seperation between your emotions, you may loose them forever; if not as much as you put in. Also, it will drain your power easily," answered the man. "I reccomend you use it as little as possible once we get the basics down or have class together. It's a tough thing to master- and it's more for some quick fixes or a battle you can't get out of....."

"Crap. Sounds like an very complicated little thing." Rain sighed. She turned the orb over in her hands, her gaze not leaving it once. 'I wonder how they make these things...' She thought to herself. Rain looked back over at Jellon, "So, what should I do now?"

Jellon threw a strong water attack at his student intent on startling her to see her first instinct and reaction as to picking a source of feed for the orb. It's swirly magenta inside breaking specks through the back exterior. "On your feet!" he said in a warning and a very serious tone as he began his little method of teaching.....killing three birds with one stone.

"EEEK!" Rain let out a shriek of surprise as the water flew at her. She quickly covered the orb up with one arm, afraid that if the water hit it something bad would happen. Attempting to focus, she tried to quickly absorb the heat from the water so she could freeze it.

Hot water splashed to the ground, crashing to the floor in the form of ice, small puddles slowly forming on the hardwood floor. "Very good," he said with a sort of approvement to what she did, "I am sorry if that was a bit too surprising, Miss. Whisperer. Just trying to see how you focus under pressure and such. I'll admit, you froze it pretty quickly....but not everything you encounter will be monitored or fixed, which is why I had to throw the water at you." He had a few heavy mental illnesses, but out of five, three were acute cases which he could control: Schitzophrenia, Physconeurosis, Neurosis. It was enough though- that you could see the stressful effects all of them in total took on him- not to mention the other (and last) two cases of OCD and Bipolar. Those were things he wasn't able to help so much. "Now, other then the fact you were taken off guard, what emotion had you put into your orb?" he asked, sticking a hand into his trench to hide his twitching fingers. It lasted a minute, fortunately for Jellon. ****Jackie's new ITEM!****
Christos's Orb: This orb is mainly for battle, so don't get too comfortable with it! It's a great sidekick when you're out of ideas, but it costs you a lot of energy- not to mention the ability to take in the gathered emotion you send to it. Be careful user- it's dangerous to the point of stealing whatever emotions you feed him.....
Christos is a long forgotten elmentalist who was said to have mastered all the elements of the world. He was one day called endlessly by his country and King to fight so they could be spared from the opposing country's army; sworn to tear them into ruin. The two kings only wanted revenge, and Christos refused to help, humbly declining and sticking to his firm belief that it was a human's battle- not a magicks. The towns people formed a mob one night just as the old Philosoper and Elementalist was heading to bed. Christos could see the fires forming from the distance inside the gates, and he quickly found a decent place to place his abilities: An orb. When the townspeople found the Ancient Christos, he was pale and dead on the ground of his room, hundreds of glowing orbs brightening the room much more then the three candles originally in there. The people, angry and in a rave took the orbs to their king. Not even the brightest sages and powerful wizards could unlock the secret to these power sealed orbs. Christos left one note which the people never looked at on the board of his room:
"May none but pure in heart unlock my secrets. My power will only be used for the good of the world!"

Rain's ears were bent back against her head as she was unsure of if she should relax or not. "Uhm..The emotions?..." Rain repeated but mostly to herself as she thought about the question. "Lets see... A sort of surprise and some fear." She said at last.
((I'm super sorry for the shortness. My brain is dead. T_T ))

Jellon felt totally terrible, because it all seemed so wrong! He took a deep breath and shook his head, but not in response to her. "Alright, I suppose that will do for now......I'd like to see one more thing before we go."
