GIVE ME EVERYTHING YOU CAN THROW
cause nothing is more worse then what I already caught.

The day was long, and Everance was just returning to the Academy after a successful assignment. To blend in with the people around him, he had a walking stick that he swayed here and there to let him know he wasn't going to bump into a object or person. The black blindfold over his eyes was slightly loosen, hiding under locks of black-brown hair. His pale complexion, in this time of age, didn't surprise the residence around him considering the goth crowd, and the anarchy children. The somewhat loose black T-shirt and jeans just added to the 'civilian' image. However, he was no human - he was no civilian.

The sun was warm upon his face, and he somewhat smiled. This is what he liked about outside assignments that his doctor and commander allowed him every so often considering he seems to be the only experiment not trying to escape. Deep in his heart, however, he wants to disappear. Ever since they took his eyes from him, he wished for all the power in the world to destroy the world he was living in. Sighing gently, a clank reached his ears as the stick he held vibrated. He paused for a moment and walked around the metal box he almost bumped into. He didn't need this stupid stick - his senses were so elevated, he was able to see with his smell, taste and hearing. But the humans would ask one too many questions. Such curious creatures, always paranoid of what is so different then them, even within their own vast majority.

If he were to remove his blindfold, silver eyes would spill into those dark blue ones and the mere look would freeze the heart of the strongest. A scar running from within his hairline, down through his right eye is thick, visible but the eye undamaged. The pupil would span due to the light outside, and you'd know from the mere look into those eyes - his being, his anger and his identity. Scratching the side of his face, Everance made a few turns here and there. Walking was always something he couldn't bother with - but it was broad daylight. Should they catch him running at speeds even a car cannot reach, a riot would start and they'd have his head in Desderda.

Finally, the Academy came into view. There was a moment in life where he would cringe at the sight. However, he was now blessed without sight, and thus... the color of the trees, the towering Academy over the rest of the area around it, the flowers and large, metal gates were a mystery to him. A frown touched his lips as his stick touched the gates. He pulled them open and walked in, sure that the people around him took a glimpse at his back, sizing him up and asking the famous question of "How can I go in there?". Curious creatures. Dangerous.

Within the gates, he was able to put the stupid stick away. He walked up the doors of the Academy and walked through, seeing the halls a mass with many kids just like him. Some looked eight, others look five and the majority looked between eighteen and twenty five. He sighed as he walked through them to head into the main office, which isn't where the principal of the Academy was, or even the Secretary who was always doing her nails, sat. Despite it looking like a vacant office, Everance walked over to the first desk and sat down. There, he began to type and the computer, which should've been some cheap thing, was actually the best computer American can offer. Rolling his shoulders, he awaited for the camera to register and search for the doctor he typed in.

Dr. Shynn appeared on the screen and Everance could do nothing else but perk a smirk. "I'm back." he uttered, falling silent as she looked up to him. She had a petite frame, but she was the leader of this horde. "Good. Operation went according to plan, I hope. In need of a reboot?" Reboot is their way of healing. "No, Ma'am. Everything went according to plan. I'm unharmed." He wished he could utter a few choice words, but his compassion had to remain hidden. The kidnapping of a few orphaned children struck a cord, and he almost backed away if he didn't know what happened to the last experiment that walked away from the mission. Dr. Shynn dismissed him and Everance was able to walk away with ever curse word he could think of spilling under his breath.

The halls were slowly emptying as 'class' was beginning. Class consisted of either more tests, training, weapon of choice of other dangerous acts that kids shouldn't learn... but they weren't merely kids, they were killing machines. Demons... created. Shaking his head, Everance made his way to the cafeteria. A snack seemed like the perfect thing right now.

Who's to know if your soul will fade at all
The one you sold to fool the world
You lost your self-esteem along the way

There in the darkened room of her solitude she sat. kicking a doctor was against the rules, as was kicking anyone. But she had been there long enough to find that life just wasn't exciting if you did not fight back once in a while. so she took up kicking things. first it was the walls, then the other students, and well now it was the doctor's turn. one can't discriminate, although she just hated everything and everyone all the same. Kicking was her way of showing it, not that she did it very often. she was one of the better behaved experiments, and one of the privileged to leave the institute. her ventures were only at night something about large ram like horns didn't settle with the people very well.

her eyes shifted as the small beam of light inched it's way toward her foot. it wasn't her fault she was trapped in solitary confinement, alright so it was, but the doctor had it coming. cold hands for the fifth time in a row and a warning. his foolish behavior. her eyes stared at the beam of light which now just touched her bare foot. OCD was setting in as she pulled her foot away. so it was times like this she wished she could control the light.

her fingers slowly uncurled them selves and pushed her to the side to avoid the light, not that she didn't like it, it was nice once in a while but after three or how ever many days she was in here she couldn't take the snail light anymore.

"think about what you did. think about the pain you caused."

"think about the pain i have! why can't you just stop and think of us for once, we're not toys to be played with! we're real living creatures!"

to bad none of it was even heard. her eyes opened as she could feel the vibrations of foot steps coming down the hall. "you can come out now." the pause. "So long as your nice." the door opened and her eyes quickly closed from the dramatic change in lighting then slowly opened to a glare. she was never a nice player.

uj stood up and walked to the door holding her hands in a folded position and looked at the guard. she rolled her eyes and walked off. lesson learned for now, and off to candy-land she goes. she walked slowly as if just coming back from one of the mind numbing treatments the doctors so lovingly give out. she hate it here but pretended every moment. to her nothing was real.

"You should of seen it! Zero was amazing."

it was funny how people could still act as though they had a normal life even when stuck behind massive gates and entering classes that they really should never attend. she took a deep breath noticing the halls starting to empty. she her self should be going to her telekinesis class or something like that, but instead she pushed her way threw the doors of the cafeteria and stopped momentarily. it wasn't long till she found her self staring at what some people called food and sitting alone at a table once again watching the snail beam of light inch its way toward her. she sighed deeply and then pushed her self to the side, stuck her tongue out at the light and thought about eating. she took a bite of what ever was there and then stopped. her eyes shifted slowly to the blindfolded guy walking around.

surely this wasn't an odd occurrence but after all the years she had been at Desderda she had never seen him be for. she stared mostly out of curiosity. why hadn't she seen him before? "Hey, are you new?" she asked in a normal tone just to see if he would answer, he looked new but he knew where everything was even with blindfold on. maybe he was one of the seers.
