Welcome to Gaia! ::

In a world where no one ages past twenty-one and where death of old age is unheard of, humans live their daily lives. The world is a utopia, a "perfect" place of wonder and adornment. As few people die, in order to have a child you must first apply for one in, 'The Institue of Population'.

Now on this world have lived another race of human. These 'kids' only grow to be seventeen, each have a unique power, and can hold the memories of the one they fall in love with in a single kiss. However, after they reach eighteen, they are either turned in or hunted down and returned to the Institute to be 'recycled'. What is recycling? The scientists at the institute take the sould from the body, the power travelling with it, and move it to a newborn body. The old body and memories are lost forever, and their file in the institute is hidden back in the vault. On another interesting note, the new body also holds the memories of the loved one in their kiss.

However, a soul can only go though so much recycling before it is worn out. Eventually the soul fails to be moved and the power finds a new sould in which to attach itself. This has happened within the last thirteen to fourteen years.

These practices have gone on for centuries, and now, a fresh batch of souls have attained the powers. These kids are to change the world. Realizing their new fates, they must find out who they were before being recycled for the first time, escape the scientists, and teach the world that what is happening is wrong.

They are not alone. These eight kids are joined by children all over, educated in schools about them, friends of them, these children are also important.

SO now you will choose. Are you a scientist carefully watching the Recycled? Are you one of the Recycled who has escaped the first recycling? A teenage who's been recycled already? Or are you merely a friend of the recycled, helpign them to attain their freedom?
It's your decision, and whatever you choose, YOU WILL CHANGE THE WORLD.

Username: kokobean22
Name: Kiki/Crystal
Age: 16/Recycled
Appearence: Crystal/Kiki
Personality: Kiki/Crystal is fun and bubbly, though can have a slight attitude if defending herself. She's got abandonment issues however, and doesn't like feeling alone. She's looking for her true love whom she doesn't know holds all of her memories.
Power: Telekinesis (Psycic stuff mostly moving things + barriers)
Weapons: Two silver daggers
Bio: Crystal was born to a wealthy family, who had no idea of her powers or her destiny. She was raised to be a lady and learn to be successful in life. It was when she was thirteen that she discovered her recycled power, and her parents told the Institute. She met up with ((I want her partner's name to be Blake...)) when she was in highschool, discovering that he too was recycled. While he escaped at eighteen, she was turned in with no chance of escape. All of Crystals memories are now in the one kiss she ever gave to the one she loved.
Kiki was born shortly after Crystal was recycled. The institute watched the little purple haired girl carefully under the eyes of her middle class parents. She goes to highschool now, using her power to clean her room and do trivial things. Little does she know, that she'll be saving her kind with the other's.
Partner: (I still want his name to be Blake...)

Username: kokobean22
Name: Christopher/Edward
Age: 17/Recycled
Appearence: Christopher/Edward
Personality: Quiet and a bit shy, Chris/Ed always has trouble getting to know anyone. However, deep inside his shell is a sweet guy who'd do anything for the one he loves. As soon as he can find someone who can melt the ice...
Power: Freezing things (this includes time but only for short whiles)
Weapons: a Bow
Bio: Ed was born into a family who always told him he'd never be worth anything. They always put him down when he needed to be lifted up. Thus, in school he never made many friends. After they discovered he was one of the recycled, his parents were even more evil to their son. With all of this hatred he began pushing everyone away until a young girl melted the ice in his heart. They shared a kiss and he ran off with her. However, he was found out at eighteen, tryign desperately to save the one he loved. He was recycled a few years later into a newborn boy.
Chris's family adores their little blonde son. He's treated well, but became dependent on his parents and afraid of anyone else. As he reaches the age where he is to once more be recycled, he is afraid of what may happen, and begins to question his parents and their safety.

Username: pepecoush

Status: Reconstitution and Redirection Manager
Weapons: Syringe, cyanide pills
Bio: Juliet believed in the process whole heartedly until her affianced turned out to be one of the recycled. As she held her love as an infant, she began to doubt.

Username:pepecoush
Name: Alice
Age:unknown

Power:manipulation of sound waves
Weapons:semi automatic hand gun
Bio:Alice grew up in a relatively loving household, with parents who expected her to do her best. However, once she learned she could never meet their expectations, she gave up.

A few months before her 18th birthday Alice met Richard, another recycled, and found out what was to happen to her. Without a look back she left her family, and has been on the run ever since.
Partner: Richard

Username: Kikay_Ali
Name: Stacy/Amie
Age: 16/recycled
Appearence:Stacy/Amie
Personality: Stacy/Amie a great person to be around and can be a great friend, though she gives of a don't-mess-with-me vibe to those who don't know her. She doesn't really care for love, see as though she's had one relationship go bad and has decided to let play the cards dealt to her and see how they do.
Power: manipulation of fire. (sadly, she can't make it poof out of nowhere.)
Weapons: a handy pocket knife and her lighter
Bio: Amie was an only child, loved dearly by her mom who always wanted the best for her. Her mom didn't get payed much, but they lived with what they could. Amie was taught to be herself and never let anyone stop you from going after your dream. She met her love in her junior year of highschool, a wealthy boy whose family didn't approve of her much. But they didn't let that stop them. But during the summer after they met, he got into a horrible car accident. During Amie's senior year, she was caught and recycled.
Stacy lives alone with her dad, her mom died 7 years ago. Her dad is a little annoyed by the fact that Stacy spends a good portion of the school year either in the nurse's office or in the principal's office for starting or getting into fights at school. Stacy has tried to explain to her dad that she's only following mom's advice of "fight for what you believe" and her own motto "never back down." Even though her dad doesn't buy this excuse (something about the fact that she's taking the 'fight' part too seriously), she still gets into fights due to her temper. One thing that she's really been bummed about is that lighters aren't allowed in school, but that may be a good thing with all the fights. She's kept her power secret from her dad, afraid of him finding some reason to ground her.

Name: Blake
Age: unknown
Appearence:Blake
Personality: Blake was a all around relaxed person, but now he's more tense and worried of being found at any moment.
Power: persuasion
Weapons: throwing stars
Bio: Blake is the oldest in his family, and he's a pretty well-rounded kid. His parents care about him when he's in trouble, but for the most part they let him do want he wants.When he met Cyrstal he put his family aside (which made them furious) and only cared about her. He found out that she was recycled too, and planned to escape with her when they both were 18. Somehow their plan failed, causing Blake to escape while Crystal was recycled. Now he's been traveling around, trying to find the sould of Crystal.
Partner:Crystal/Kiki

Kiki sat in her final period class starign anxiously at the clock as the final minute drew nearer. She was going to the movies with Chris and a few other friends, and truth be told, she was tired of waiting. That's when the bell finally rang, causing Kiki to jump out of her seat and rush to her locker. Two lockers down stood Chris takign his time to unlock it and remove his things.
"I'm sooo excited!" Kiki squealed, her books flying into the air. Chris looked down and shuffled his feet, he always got like this when Kiki planned things.
"I don't think I want to go..." Chris said quietly. Kiki's eyes turned sad.
"But Chris...you promised this time...."

A few lockers down from Kiki and Chris, Stacy overheard them, even though she didn't need to eavesdrop. Kiki had been excited about going to the movies for a while, you didn't need to be a spy to figure that one out. But it was just this moment that Stacy decided that she'd go to the movies too, just to see if there was a way to bug the crap out of them. She hung out a little bit longer at her locker than usual, trying to figure out what movie they were going to watch and when they were going. She hoped it wasn't right after school, she wanted to grab her lighter from home just in case something came up. Stacy put some books into her locker.

Blake roamed around, outside of school that just got out. He lost count of how many schools he'd been to, trying to find the sould of Crystal. He didn't know how he was exactly going to know it was her, he just hoped that he would feel complete again when he saw her.

Stacy jumped back when the book went flying past her, but smirked. She found out when they were seeing the movie... And found out that she could run home real quick, hopefully avoid her dad, and grab her lighter. With that she gave one look to Chris, and walked toward the exit.

Blake scanned the students as they exited the building, making sure he got a good look at them before switching to the next.

Stacy walked outside, swerved around the buses and started to head home. She only lived a couple of blocks away from the school, so she either walked or biked there. But before she was completely off school property, she noticed Blake looking really out of place just standing there. She shrugged and figured that he was waiting for someone. She turned the street and checked her watch. "Crap." She muttered, realizing that she wouldn't have time to walk to the theater which meant that she would have to sneak her bike out of the house (her bike is in her room because her dad doesn't want it on the lawn).

Blake continued to search the crowd as he caught Kiki at the corner of his eye. He couldn't decide what made him so sure, but he was sure that his search had finally come to an end. He noted what direction she was going and stood there for a while, lost in thought.

Chris had taken his bus home, stopping inside to see his mother cleaning the house while his father was at work. His mother had a bit of a tummy bump, and she whistled while she worked. Chris had been glad his mother and father got approved at the institute to have another child. Perhaps then losing him in these few years would be easier. He dropped off his things then left again, his mother too busy to notice.
