In the town of Chirmont the 'children' are having strange dreams in their sleep... monsters and an ancient, untouched world pass through their heads in their quiet slumber... Some shrug it off, others can't wait to go to bed to experience the 'dream' again... but the dream is recurring, almost like a premonition. It is the year 2086, fifty years after the mudslide that nearly wiped the town off of the face of the planet. Our story begins with the beginning of a new day, Monday the 24th of June to be precise. Class is about to begin at the local high school and the students are just arriving, most walking to school on their own. --- Profile requirements: Send me a PM containing the following information --Copy and paste the below 'code'--[b]Gaia Screen name:[/b]((You know, what you log in with))

Slowly Ikoto approached the campus, he was wearing an unmarked jungle-green shirt and a pair of black jeans. His hair was a short tattered affair, the brown strands unable to decide one direction to grow in so they grew in all of them. His green eyes glanced around the campus as he approached the main building. Several groups of students lounged on the various benches, some ever in the trees. With a quiet breath he shifted shoulders with his backpack, his arms showing an above-average build of muscles on his arms which hinted to him possibly being an athlete.
"Another day, another twenty-four hours" he said in a cool, deep voice, smiling lightly to himself as he reached the doors of the main building and looked back one last time. A quiet moment looking at the trees and he entered the building. This definitely would be a good day for Ikoto Azshir.

In a blur and whurl of blue and kahki a tall dark haired teen rushed past his fellow classmates, an urgent look in his bright amber eyes as he pushed his way through the jocks and cheerleaders, his tounge hanging out slightly as he held his messenger bag tightly, his free hand shoving people aside.
Several shoves and pushs later, he stopped slightly out of breath his eyes grew wide before a small whimper could be heard, clinging to the vending machine he let out a rather loud cry before slumping to the ground still holding onto it.
"Nooooo!!!"
He cried, his muscular medium build hidden beneath an overly large black hoodie, the sleeves rolled up, though one could tell red flames traveled along the sides, a bird shape on the the back also formed by flames. His kahki shorts ended just above his knee, his black slip on shoes seemed to cling to his size twelve feet, also revealing he'd forgotten socks this morning.
"Why?! Why is it ALWAYS out of order?!"
He groaned leaning against the vending machine, his eyes seeming to darken as his stomach gave a rather large growl. For an upperclassmen he sure acted odd. His hair seeming to rush towards the front, his bangs spiking up and out giving him a pineappleish look. His sun kissed skin revealed he'd been out and about alot though one couldn't tell under all that clothing. The young junior groaned once more as the growls of his stomach grew louder, he was Tai Fayt, sixteen, hormonal, and sixfoot even, who wouldn't be hungry?!

Shay Vailen hummed lightly to herself, light-blue colored eyes scanning the campus as though expecting some terrible alien to appear and start ravaging the campus. She scooted closer to the tree she was sitting under, though there wasn't much room to do that, pressing her back firmly to it. With slight intensity she started rummaging through the rather large backpack, constantly halting every minute to fix a problem she found, be it rolling up the sleeves of her over-sized blue hoodie, tugging at her white khaki shorts that were longer than any girl dared to wear or just swiping back the long strands of black hair that she had the misfortune to call bangs.
Eventually she managed to retrieve what she'd been trying to find in the first place, pulling out a rather thick book that belonged to one of her classes. She’d forgotten to do the reading that was required for last night and now took the time to do it, if not quickly skim and pray she knew what was needed to be known. Shay quickly flipped to the chapter and set the book down next to her, taking a moment to stretch skinny limbs before folding them back up, grumbling at the same time as she swiped her bangs back again beginning to wonder why they weren’t long enough to stay in her low pony-tail. With that on her mind she picked up her book and began to skim read, fiddling with the shoelace of her black and white sneakers as she did.

Ikoto shook his head at Tai as he heard the boy's cry, he acted more like he was still in middle school, not high school. "What is it with you and that machine, huh?" he asked as he got close to him. "Is it 'not in the mood'? he continued with a chuckle, tossing a small bag of chips at Tai, something he usually kept on him just incase.
"You really should start carrying extra food into school, get another bag if you need to" Ikoto said as he leaned back against the wall, a clock above his head showed that there were only fifteen minutes left till class began.

Tai blinked and let out a yelp as the bag of chips hit him square in the face. The yelp turning into a slight scream as he let out a gasp.
"Ah!! the foods attacking! It wants revenge!"
Blinking as the bag fell into his lap he blinked slightly red, his eyes shifting over to Ikoto as his ears registered the comments. A small grin forming on his lips as he ignored the rather large amount of stares he was now recieving.
"Ah, didn't wanna go to round nine."
He replied almost moaning in pleasure as he quickly disposed of the small morsals in the bag. He seemed oddly full as he crumpled up the bags. Licking his lips he eyed the chip powder on his fingers and gave a slight twitch. He'd promised himself he wouldn't anymore, but there were days he couldn't help it.
Taking a deep breath he dusted his hands off, sighing he slowly stood and brushed off his rearend, eyeing the same clock as Ikoto had, he gave another grin.
"Iko, you know the principal won't let me bring food after what happened last year! Don't tease me about food...I can't help it i'm a growing man!"
He said with a slight frown giving the broken vending machine a small kick.

Shay walked into the building, managing to move swiftly past other students despite the heavy backpack on her back and her eyes focused inside the book she'd forgotten to read. She made her way down the hallway, heading to the vending machine. Swiftly she walked around Tai and Ikoto, not even seeming to notice them as part as her surroundings.
In a rather swift manner she lowered the book and held it in one hand, bookmarking the page she was on with her finger. With the other she dug into her pockets, eyes focused on the vending machine as she tried to find a suitable choice. At the same time she made her choice she produced money, quickly dispensing it into the machine and punching the buttons quickly. She sighed and tapped her foot, eyes focused as the machine slowly handed over her selection, a chocolate chip granola bar. She reached into the slot and snatched it before it even touched the bottom, opening the wrapper with one hand while reopening the book and holding it in her arm.
"Okay where was I..." She muttered to herself, taking a bite and skimming the book for the spot she'd been on last, still oblivious to people around her.

Ikoto shook his head as he pulled a soda from a seperate machine. "Looks like she's cheating on you to me, Tai" he said with a smirk. The 'kssht' of the can opening sounding out before he took a slow sip from it. "Maybe you two should see a councilor? Think we have a few of them hanging about here"

Tai couldn't hear a word Iko spoke, his mind fogged over by what Shay had just done. He'd been going to this school for three years now and not once had that bloody machine given him what he wanted, and most times gave him nothing at all. Yet this girl came out of no where and seemingly effortlessly got it to work for her, all while reading a book.
"She must be an angel or something..."
He muttered under his breath, his eyes traveling over her several times, those large amber eyes, that caused many a girl to shiver at the sight of them. Yet they were now glued to this single girl, who seemed to be oblivious to the fact that he lived and breathed not more than a foot from her.
His mouth became dry, his hands slightly sweaty and he could feel his stomach drop.
"Oh man..."
he muttered looking her over once more.
"She's...perfect...."

Shay continued munching away at her granola bar, chewing and staring hard at the book as she tried to finish the last few paragraphs she had left. She made to take another bite, noticing a piece of the wrapper de-attach and flutter to the ground. She blinked and glanced down at it, noticing the blurred color out of the corners of her eyes that her mind instantly identified to belonging to shoes. Suddenly she became aware that there was other around her, tensing up at the thought.
Slowly she lifted her gaze off the floor and at Ikoto and Tai, blinking and shivering slightly when she saw Tai staring at her. She blinked and stared back uneasily, becoming a little fearful.
'W-w-what is he s-staring at?' She thought in her mind, ideas suddenly popping into her mind left and right, none at all pleasant. She continued to eye him nervously, darting her eyes about to see if anything else might really be catching his attention it just happened to be in her same direction. She blinked, noticing the 'Out of Order' sign attached to the machine. Her eyes darted down to the garnola bar in her hand before looking back up at Tai, her gaze switching between the two as she put one and one together.
"Uhm...," she replied, her voice nervous as she stared back at Tai again, beginning to wonder now if he was going to mug her for using the machine and having it actually work, her paranoia beginning to work on her nerves.

"I'd suggest you take... hmm, lets say three steps to your right" Ikoto said, pushing off of the wall and watching Tai with a quiet chuckle. "He's about to hurt you in some way, though not intentionally I'm sure" He held the can between his two hands and crushed it shorter. Then with a deliberate motion tossed it underhanded at the trash can.
Ikoto glanced back at the clock, scratching the top of his head out of habit as he did so. "Ten minutes you two" he said, opening his backpach and checking the contents for the day ahead.

Tai opened his mouth, not breaking his stare as he tried to take a step toward her. He could feel his heart begin to race, and suddenly found himself oddly, even more so clumsy.
"H-hIIIII!"
He yelped falling forward, his eyes widening his natural reflexs seemed to kick in, as his arms came forward, and with the sound of skin meeting floor, his hand haulted him in a perfect push up position.
He blinked, sweating slightly at his almost fall. Looking up towards Shay he gave a nervous grin, chuckling slightly. Dusting his hands off, he blinked as the detatched wrapping paper stuck to his slightly red and still slightly sweating palm.
"Uhm...heh...Hi? Erm....I'm Tai...and is this yours?"
He gave a nervous grin, removing the wrapping paper from his palm. His eyes nervously staring into hers. He didn't know what was wrong with him, every other female he'd come into contact with he could handle just fine. Then again, he'd never seen her before. Was she new?

Shay blinked, glancing at Ikoto curiously at his suggestion. However before she had time to head his warning she heard Tai yelp, giving one of her own and jumping back a good foot away as he fell forward, the book clutched to her test as she eyed him nervously.
She looked at the wrapping paper Tai peeled off of his palm, eyeing it for a moment before looking back at him. She gave a small gulp, biting her lip slightly as she tried to keep her mouth shut, her heartbeat ringing in her ears. She took a sharp breath, slowly nodding her head in reply to Tai's question as she straightened up a little, still a little nervous. She noted that he'd given his name, wondering if she should give her own or just keep her mouth shut, debating the idea in her mind.
