Party, booze, and teh hawt gay secks?
Correct. (Not! >3)

Now, these boys are special, containing powers over the elements.
The organizer of this little extravaganza had told them that they were chosen randomly but as the boys' powers begin to unfold the lie shows its true colors.
But why were they all called together to live in a mansion and then told to go to a high school a few miles away from their new homes?

<center>Students

Name: Jake 'Bakuzen*'
Age: 17
Appearance: Stands at about 6'0, wherever he goes he portrays grace and a bad attitude, striking fear in the hearts of some boys which in turn would change into a awe love. Known as a player, a drunk, a druggie, he moves around the school not paying any attention to the rules and taking on anyone who gets in his way, either physically or mentally. Glossy black hair with bangs that reach to just above his eyes, golden eyes that seem to penetrate the soul and show an ageless wisdom. Two black markings are located on his shoulderblades, on the right a normal cross, on the left an inverted one, they can be seen when he goes shirtless.
Class: Junior
Element: Darkness
Bio: At the age of seven, Jake was placed upon the doorsteps of some random family and taken in. The people that had 'taken care of him,' were thought to be a kind family, but behind closed doors they were brutal, taking all their pent up anger out on their child. When they were either drunk, frustrated, or feeling some kind of raw emotion, he would end up being bruised or battered. Technically, that wasn't something which would help one's social status, and Jake had grown into a 'bad boy,' skipping classes, smoking on the rooftops of the school, making complete fools of his teachers. You name it, he did it.

At the age of thirteen, he had taken enough abuse from his family.
By this time he had become cruel and cold hearted, the complete vision of a sadist, and finally gave the couple, that had taken him in, what they deserved. A beating that rendered both male and female nearly dead. He hadn't cared for them and would have killed, except for the fact that, when he had tried, the two black tattoos on his back would burn everytime he would let his 'parents' get near the dying point.

He then moved out and started making his living off of the streets, enjoying every little bit of what freedom he had. It wasn't everyday that one would, willingly, come across masochists and those clients that enjoyed being mistreated were always sent to him. After a while though, he grew tired of the fact that he was just another whore on the streets and cleaned up his act, renting an apartment in the middle class part of town. Through all these times he had been straight but it was an event to come that would send him through the passages to becoming gay.

He had been sixteen, his girlfriend had been living with him, making her living from his paycheck and the such. Everyday she would piss and moan about how her life sucked and that it was all his fault. One day he snapped, having been put through this s**t for more than a year. Jake had picked her up from where she had been sitting and had then preceded to the window. a dumpster was located underneath his window, a mere convenience. He threw her out the window, a dumpster was located underneath, and she was sent tumbling into it, a mere convenience. When she had finally gathered enough wit, the words spoken were the stupidest that had ever been uttered from her, something to effect that she was going to break up with him. His response was laughing harshly down at her and saying that he had never had any love for her, that he was actually bi, and she was just another convenience in his life, a piece of a** to be exact.

One year later he was choosen for a contest where he could win half a million dollars, he had accepted thinking that it would be easy to live with other boys his age. Later he would learn that things aren't as easy as they seem.

*This is not his real last name but the last name of the couple that had taken him in.

Bio: Until the age of 15, Cyrus thought that he was the son of the rich and powerful Twin Evans. He grows up always being pushed to be the best in everything he did. When ever he took second he was punished by his over achieving father. And behind closed doors it was only worse.

In the halls of school Cyrus was the big man on campus everyone knew him as, Red, and every one wanted to be him. But it is always the loneliest on the top. Cyrus grows up with no true friends and every girl that he went out with never truly loved him. This went on to the point that he almost gave up on them all together.

One day after winning the Country Championship Game, he over hears his drunk father talking to one of his many hoes about how Cyrus is the best investment he has ever made. He goes on to say that Cyrus’s hole life is a lie made up to make him rich, and all he had to do was kill his brother and then take Cyrus for himself. In a rage of anger and hate Cyrus kills Twin and the hoe, and runs away in search of his true past.

After, a year of living and the streets and dodging the police Cyrus enters a contest where he could win half a million dollars under the name of "Ken Powers". He had accepted thinking that it would be easy to live with other boys his age. Later he would learn that things aren't as easy as they seem.

Bio:His mother is terribly sick: leukemia. His family isn't rich at all... on the contrary, they're quite poor. They never thought they'd really need insurance, and they couldn't afford it anyways, and so they forgot all about it.

He led a happy, rather sheltered life before coming to the school. He never really thought about dating that much; he had had crushes, but he wasn't they type girls went after. He was a little too submissive, and shy, and quiet.

A boy of many words, he's friendly, caring, but views the world from behind a lense. Not one for sports, he was outcasted in his own school by many of the boys, for many reasons, not just his dislike for games. Spent much of his time videotaping the world rather than living it, and spending too much time in the developing rooms, where his pure chalk white complexion matured. His love for the film making caused serious rumours within his own school, especially when word got out of his preferance for males. Many accused young Valentine of creating illegal videos of the other males in his school, and outside of school too. However, police research upon the boy found no traces of evidence and so, Valentine was cleared. However, this caused the youth to feel even more outcasted, his talents were 'wasted' upon these people. Hearing of this new chance to evolve in a way Valentine never dreamed, a few quick begs with loving and doting parents brought the youth to the mansion and school.

A new begining in a way Valentine never dreamed...He hopes.

By seven years old, he had been tested as some sort of technical genius and quite a few schools offered tuition for the small boy. His father, being a traditionalist military man at the time, outright refused them because he wanted his son to follow in his foot steps.

An accident of friendly fire took his father's life two years afterwards and heart failure claimed his mother afterwards. He went to live with his grandmother in Kyoto, smothered often by her constant worry of him getting killed. But he lived a good healthy life in the old capital, though the old woman didn't have much to give him, he was more than content with the things he had instead of not having. The old woman was kind to him ever since he was small, so no matter what, he wanted to find a way to repay her for taking him in and caring for him.

One day, as bills were piling up for his grandmother's house, he was given the chance to gain half a million dollars, more than enough to pay off the mortgage bills to the house and keep them for a good while longer. What a better way to repay her kindness to him? Packing things up and kissing his grandmother good-bye, he left for Seijokyu High School.

Name: Anarki Barikell
Age: 19
Appearance: Standing at 6'3 1/2, most would think that it wouldn't be hard to spot Anarki, however it's the exact opposite due to his ability to withstand attention. He's quite the exotic form, having the accents of his Italian heritage peering through, giving his complexion a lovely light tan creme. His torso and back are quite longer than the average male, due to his body having to balance out his leg spam. His hair is quite long and unruly, usually pulled up in a braided ponytail that makes it look a lot shorter than it really is. It's plum curtesy clashing greatly with his slanted orbs of a stunning jade and his rusty amber colored bangs. His eyelashes, much like his hair, is equally thick and long, usually fading an unusual amber at their tips. Despite his usually estranged sort of clothing, he is gently toned, mostly his legs and arms have the advantage over his abdomen. Though overall, despite what he thinks, he's quite exotic looking, with the strangest of markings being started from his always hidden forehead, and then making it's way down to his back, making strange patterns until finally ending at the very tip of his left thigh. Though despite his unusual marking, he does have two quirks, one being his lip piercing which is located on the corner of his bottom right, and an eyebrow piercing on the corner of his left eyebrow.
Class: Senior
Element: Earth
Bio: Anarki hadn't a horror story to speak about. Neither did he have a tear jerker or fairy tale. He had spent his life with a family, though grew up in the hospital, literally. He had been diagnosed with many things, and each time he was to be cured of it, the aftermath of the side effects would make another illness he possessed worse, or even start a new. He, at times, had even undergone into a comatose lifestyle, after a while it became quite a habit. However, some things in the past he'd prefer to be left buried.

To be truthful, Anarki had never cared much for his family, just knowing that they were around, and not feeling an obligations to treat them any less as mere associates. He played his part as the son, the brother, and the role model, but never did it with emotional strings, never. He had went through his life with an eerie thought of mind, often exciting and yet intimidating his peers with his thoughts and artistic influences, assuming that he were troubled deeply. Thus how he was sent off to a shrink and therapist.

After realizing how his views simply got him into situations his didn't quite appreciate, he began to act like the minority to get the hypocrites off his back. Hadn't had much experience with affectionate relations or affections in general, and it seemed to spark up a strange form of claustrophobia within him. He has, however, come to terms with not scaring off any new acquaintances with his views, and to this day had taken up the belief of pantheism.

Rian's mother really thought that her 'angel' would make her famous, but it wasn't so. Let's just say that Rian wasn'y the most graceful person in the world and his mothers clothes weren't easy on the eyes.

One day, after Rian had failed to get a job, his drunk mother had called him a demon and devil's child before kicking him out of thier tiny apartment. Since Rian couldn't get back into thier home, he simply left. After a few weeks of sleeping on park benches and sarvation, Rian found an add o live in a house.

Contrary to popular belief, he has a kind heart, but when doing something he'd rather do it... differently than everyone else. He likes sitting by pools and going to the beach, but hates the water. He thinks very highly of himself, so if you don't listen to him or brush him off he'll get upset, but keep talking as if you were listening.
You never, ever... ever want to catch Dom depressed or upset. He will snap, scream and smack anything and everything that comes near him, he just hates when people see him crying or upset, a pet peeve if you will... only if he truly cares for you will he allow you to hug him or something of the sort, when it comes to feelings and touchy-feely stuff Dom fails.
He lived a rather normal childhood in Britain, and so he dons an accent. He's rather cold because he was rather ignored by his parents, they were important people in business and didn't have time for a child. He's a music fan, he was taught how to play the saxophone and he is wonderful at it.

He comes alive when in the presence of the minds of the open, basking in their glory, and his normal attire usually consists of comfortable yet trendy clothes. Everything from the normal Billabong to the preppy Abercrombie to something consisting of heavy eyeliner and chains. Anything that offsetted his nicely toned body. A tattoo of a brown stemmed and hybrud red rose curls up his arm from wrist to bicep.

Classes taught: Biology, part-time doctor at the infirmary
Element: Darkness
Bio: Spending a good few years at medical school, he decided on taking a good few extra years at teaching school before coming to this high school's payroll.
Having no particular past of interest, his only eventful moment in his life was when he was around 18 years old and had lost his eye to save his boyfriend of the time from an obsessive maniac in their school. Unfortunately to say, same boyfriend had commited suicide not long after when his sister got killed by the same maniac who was release from prison for good behaviour.
His heart still aches from his memories of that time, wishing he could have done something. He spent his life studying away to become a doctor and then a teacher so he could stop the same thing ever happening to someone else, whether they be male or female.

Name: Zayne West
Age: 25
Appearance: Zayne is at an average height, standing at about 5'7'' and weighing around 120lbs, which is rather light for his height and age, and it clearly shows through his abnormal slimness. His skin is comparable to the color of snow when it has first fallen, (and no this isn't a Snow-White spin off; that's scary) and is unblemished or marred in any way, except for on the inside of his wrist, where a small runic-type marking is shown, just because it is a requirement. His hair is the color of crimson and is rather strait, but thick, and shiny, neatly falling down to his mid-back and usually tied back into a low pony-tail with a black ribbon. His bangs hang at his chin, and are parted in the middle, the hair curling just so around his pretty face. Zayne's eyes are of the palest blue, surrounded by thick, black eyelashes. He is usually seen wearing a white dress shirt, black slacks, and a pair of tidy, but somewhat scuffed dress shoes. Teachers don't have great salaries. Deal with it.
Classes taught: Art
Element: Earth
Bio: Zayne was born and raised in a small town in Mid-Western United States. As a child, he discovered his abilities involving the element of earth, but didn't discuss it with anyone at the time, fearing early abandonment or being shunned by his Bible-Belt parents, friends, and peers. Later on, in middle school and early high school, he discovered some other odd things about himself, like his attraction to men, and the even odder marking on the inside of his wrist, which seemed to just appear there, as if by magic. But he couldn't keep any of these things a secret for long. At the age of 18, just after graduating from High School, he told his parents, not only that he had powers, but also about his homosexuality and the marking. He was immediately thrown out of his house, and left on his own to make a living for himself. So, he went to college, and found a job at Seijokyu High school, teaching Art.

Okay...only one here for now. I thought they said that everyone would be arriving soon..., he contemplates while sitting up on the counter of the kitchen, bare feet dangling and then swinging hypnotizingly. He had been forced into here out of sheer hunger, stomach empty from lack of dinner last night. Now it was taking forever for the microwave to tick slowly to zero and beep the end of the heating process of his frozen chicken nuggets.

Glaring at the technologic creation did not seem to be helping it move any faster, but he still did it. "Whoever made these blasted things so slow, needs to be shot," he hisses quietly, looking for something to chuck at the glowing 1:20 that seemed to mock him. He settles for an ink pen and sends it hurtling in the air at the machine. Seconds later, it lands with a thunk on the floor, no damage done to both parties.

(Sent PM. Read it. Dont reply to this.)

(Joinnnnnnn~~~!)

Kenneth stopped right before the mansion's steps, brown eyes looking up apprehensively at the building. He supposed it wouldn't be so intimidating if he hadn't been so far away from everything he had known...

Shaking these thoughts from his mind, he frowned determinedly. ~You're here to help Mom,~ he reminded himself sternly. ~You are *going* to walk up those steps and into that building.~

And so he did, swallowing nervously as he opened the door. "Hello?" he called, cursing his voice for shaking.

When he got no answer, he chewed on his lower lip nervously. Then, his sensitive ears picked up an angry voice down the hall to his right. ~Ah, well,~ he thought to himself. ~Might as well meet the person...~
He headed towards the sound.

((Wahahahahaha.... *is cracking up majorly*.... heart whee ))

Kenneth's eyes widened as he took in the sight before him, mouth hanging open very slightly before he remembered his manners.

~Oh... my *God*...~ seemed to be the phrase that his mind seemed to like most at the moment...

"Um, excuse me?" he ventured shyly. The boy didn't seem to hear, having been yelling at his chicken nugget. He'd just gotten up his nerve to speak again when the boy cried, "DAMMMMMMIT!"

Spooked again, Kenneth jumped. As the other tried to glare his food into submission, Kenneth coughed slightly. "Ah... excuse me? I'm new here?"

His nervousness turned his statements into questions.
