![]() The story Characters what the place looks like Introduction The story begins on a lovely early spring morning. The location where the Zodiacs are being kept is sunny, but not overly warm. It is a comfortable temperature to be outside, but not if you were out there for the entire day. All of the found Zodiac have arrived at the location over the last few months, some earlier than others. Aeon has just woken up, and has called everyone down to breakfast. She has made a huge breakfast, with virtually every food you can imagine. She loves to make the teens feel as if they are at their own home, which is part of why she acts so motherly toward them. Your post should begin somewhere around them waking up//going to the kitchen for breakfast. Something of that sort. Edited by Dream, December 27, 2011, 5:20 pm.

![]() Stretching, a fairly small young man sat up in the soft bed. Despite being awake for a while, he hadn't moved until then, not quite ready to face the day. He almost forgot where he was when he first awoke that morning, but he couldn't live in that fake reality for long. He had to face the truth; he was in a strange place that he barely knew. Having only been there for two days now, he hadn't had enough time to explore his surroundings. In fact, he had yet to stray from his room and the kitchen. Deciding that it was about time he meet the others, he pushed the covers off of his legs. He figured that he was one of the last to arrive, he WAS from the most obscure place, after all. Anthony Roberts got out of the bed, and walked over to the bathroom. He quickly undressed, and turned on the water. Not bothering to turn on the hot water, he always took cold showers, he got in. A short time later, he got out, and pulled a towel off of the shelf. Wrapping the fluffy white material around his waist, Sonny leaned over to look into the mirror. He looked at himself critically, then moved a strand of dripping wet blonde hair from one side of his nose to the other. Satisfied, he then went back into his room, and over to the wardrobe. He dug through the clothes until he found a black t-shirt. Pulling it over his head, he grabbed a random pair of boxers, removing his towel to put them on. He then found his favorite pair of black jeans, and pulled them on as well. He threw a red button down shirt on over his black tee, not bothering to button it up, and headed toward the door. Putting his phone in his pocket, Sonny glanced out of his bedroom before walking into the hallway. Not seeing anyone, he continued on the path towards the kitchen. As he walked outside, he took the opportunity to look around for the first time. The previous day, when he had been through there, it was late at night, for he was slightly thrown off by the time difference. He had never left Iceland before, and it was all so different. That, coupled with the fact that it was the first day he didn't have his music blasting in his ears, meant that he didn't really notice anything around there. To his surprise, he heard the tell-tale sounds of a waterfall nearby. With sudden flashbacks of home, he abandoned his journey for food to search for the water. He spotted the fall, and smiled a rare smile, making note of its location for later. He would get food, and then return there. Mind still on the new discovery, the Gemini made his way to the kitchen. "Hello, Aeon." he said, taking an apple from a basket on the counter. He had met Aeon the night before when he made his late night journey for food. He sat down on one of the bar stools as the counter, and munched on the apple, looking around. ![]() Akira groaned, and pushed the soft blankets off her. She didn't want to get up, but the thought of breakfast was thoroughly appealing. She rolled out of bed, and pulled on her clothes. She wasn't much of a morning person. She didn't find any need to clean up much, she had showered that night, and was just going to grab some food. With that thought in mind, the girl made her way to the kitchen, where she grabbed a plate, and put a single pancake on it. She sat at the table, and began eating in silence. OOC

![]() Crystal woke up to the sound of her watch's alarm, a high-pitched beeping sound. She stretched and sat up, brushing her short hair out of her face. As soon as she opened her eyes, a confused look flashed across her face. Where was she? Oh yes, that's right, she was at this... group home. Crystal had just arrived there last night by overnight flight, and still wasn't too sure why she was there, either. Something about the shooting star that had fallen in the woods in the back of her house, perhaps. She had felt such a connection to that astral stone, it spoke to her in it's own way. It was one of the strangest things she had ever encountered. But, when she was taken to this house, the shooting star had been taken away from her. Well, she thought, it's not technically a shooting star. It's a meteorite. Crystal enjoyed calling them shooting stars, it reminded her of a childhood that was all too quickly slipping away. She tried to step out of bed, but her legs had tangled themselves with the sheets on her bed during the night, and so she fell to the ground with a yelp. Groaning, Crystal untangled herself and went into the bathroom to wash the sleep from her eyes. Pulling on a pair of jeans and a tank top, she grabbed her hat and walked out the door to her room. Climbing down the stairs quietly, Crystal heard people moving around downstairs. Birds chirped softly, and the sound of running water could be heard, coming from somewhere inside. This, she decided, was unusual, and something to be checked out later. Peeking her head around the corner, she saw a guy sitting at the bar, munching on an apple, and a girl eating a pancake at the table. There was also a motherly-looking woman at the stove, frying what smelled like bacon. Crystal walked into the kitchen, muttering something that vaguely sounded like 'morning'. She didn't make eye contact with any of them, but instead grabbed a few orange slices from a bowl on the counter, and turned around a scurried out of the room. She closed her eyes and listened for the sound of the running water, following it into another room. Oddly enough, there was a small waterfall, cascading down in what looked like a sitting room. Crystal sat down beside it and dipped her hand in the water, thinking reminiscently about her brothers. She realized she hadn't yet put her hat on, and consequently placed the old, ragged, black messenger hat on her head, turning it to sit at a rather jaunty angle. Crystal decided that she needed more food than just a few orange slices, and re-entered the kitchen to grab an apple, which she sat down at the table to much on. She felt a longing for the meteorite, though she didn't know why. |

![]() Staring outside a window as the sun rises over the horizon; Amelia Virtϋn could hear the walking feet of the others taken to this place. Amelia was sitting with her back on the mattress while sitting on the floor, the door behind her as well as a bathroom on the same side as the room’s entrance. She hadn’t slept all night as her weary mind floated to the idea to observe the sounds of this new place. The feel of this more enlightened place is definitely different from her life in Egypt. As Amelia admired the rising horizon, she had thought about the past and how she got here. Making herself angry and depressed for no reason, Amelia had felt the guilt that she may have caused her father’s death. She had no intension of being a chosen being in the broken world, snapping out of the day dreaming realizing a glow from her closed fists with arms wrapped around legs and her head lifting up from her knees. Amelia noticed her right fist glow a bright azure/royal blue color; opening her fist to see the oddly shaped die pulsating its pure sapphire form. The sun arose over the glowing horizon as the stars faded away, and the moon cloaked itself in the brightening skies. “So then… is it time to awake,” the nights were brilliant but there are some days she was able to slumber away. Noticing certain souls walking to the grand smell of flavors and smells she stood onto her feet, letting the tail end of her robes drape down just past her knees. Holding the open palm, facing up, that was holding the oddly shaped die, “Will I be a part of this morning’s group and discussions?” Amelia questioned the die, which in turn came from a glowing color to an intensified beam of blue light surrounding the jewel; dropping the die with a twist of the wrist the jewel instantly dropped to floor and rolled for a few bounces. She had closed her eyes took in a deep breath, but when she exhaled the worries away the die came to a stop and sent her a vision of a three numbers. In the center 6, above 11, and below 1, *So be it* her thoughts processed a remembrance of these numbers until the next decisions. Ames picked up the glowing jewel, touching caused it to go dormant as the jewel was also placed in a necklace. Stripped down throwing her clothes on the bed and took a shower to freshen up after being awake all night. Figuring that the hour was still early for some of the people dragged to this place, Ames took a bit of time enjoying the flow of water and listening/observing the feet and sounds of anyone awake and walking. After getting dried off, she actually had plenty of time for her hair to dry as she got dressed. Putting on undergarments, a skirt, a short sleeved shirt and her favorite hoodie, after which her hair could be completely dried off as it was groomed to her liking. Calming down from the refreshing cleanse, Ames sat down on the bed a fell back, lying on the mattress sideways and looking at the horizon once more, upside-down, “The light of sun calls for the morning hour. The smell of bacon and eggs seems delicious today,” she spoke out loud to herself. sitting back up to put on her shoes and walked out the door. She quickly found the breakfast area where others were awake and munching as well. Taking a seat at a table that had plenty of food for an army of people she spoke, “Good morning, this feast smells exquisite,” smiling gleefully filling a plate with bacon and eggs with a side of orange slices.

Sky never slept. Or rather, never slept at night. More often than not Sky would be found in a library of sorts, a book or manga over his face as he lay in a corner sleeping. It’s only when his body is too exhausted to sleep that he managed to finally get a cat nap into his system and that would keep him running for a few hours before needing another one. It was his inability to sleep that had Sky sitting in the windowsill of his room, reading a book by the sunlight that had been waking up recently. ”Now nice, to be able to sleep all night…” Sky said about the sun as he read the manga in his lap. Of course, technically he knew the sun did not sleep. Nor did it need sleep. It was merely a ball of burning gas that was positioned roughly 93 Million Miles away from earth. Besides, if it wasn’t warming his own particular area with it’s radiation, it was warming somewhere else. So it never slept. Just like him. Flipping the page of his manga, Sky heard steps pass by his door and turned his head while his eyes continued to read the words that were in Japanese still. After finishing a line, Sky’s eye’s flashed towards the door and watched it intensely, trying to imagine what was going on the other side of the door. It didn’t sound like a maid’s footsteps outside, rather a pair of cautious feet. Feet that didn’t know the layout of this house. With a sigh, Sky wondered how many others were there. He’d been here for about a month now. Some were here before him, others after. He saw their faces from time to time, however he didn’t pay close enough attention. Heck, there could have just been the same three he saw from time to time only to assume they were different people. Sky didn’t pay that close attention to them to say ‘this is person A, this is person B’. The most he knew was that there were others there with him. Others with the same fate as him. His nose was always in a book though so he never created conversation, or responded to it either. Not when there were so many books in a library here. With his eyes still reading the kanji on the book, Sky pulled on a grey tee-shirt to cover his bare chest that had been warming with the rising sun, and then also grabbed a zip up hoodie from a post on the wall. He is never one to really leave clothes around, even if it’s a hooded sweater he used to keep warm when wandering around. Instead of placing it on the bed that he hardly used, he hung it up properly, and made sure all clothing were put away properly. If he were to let the clothes start to pile up out of place, Sky knew he was going to have a huge mess on his hands in the room, and never alter his ways. It’s best to stay strict from the beginning because god knows nothing else in his ways were strict. So once he was clad in a pair of baggy blue jeans that were slightly wrinkled from being in all night, and a fresh tee shirt and his usual hoodie (zipped up half way), Sky reached for the door and never took his eyes off the manga. This was his third manga of the evening, and he wanted to finish it before getting down to the kitchen where food would be. He wasn’t particularly hungry, but he knew that he needs food, and the idea of other people being down there intrigued him. He heard new arrivals last night, and the night before as well. In hopes to finally get to know who these new arrivals were, Sky decided breakfast was as good a time as any. Not that he was going to elicit conversation. Though seeping in everything in the same room would suffice. Taking his steps slowly, Sky managed to finish the manga before getting to the kitchen, and smoothly slipped the manga into the hoodie pocket as he entered the kitchen where others were already. Scanning the room, he noticed the hostess of the house was there, as well as a few unfamiliar faces. They all looked his age, but while they felt familiar they also felt unfamiliar. His age, yet so different based on their different appearances. Sky never knew how different people his age could look. But then again, in a way he did. He was American after all. Born in South Korea, raised in America, only to return to South Korea for some time before being brought to this place. Wherever this place was. All Sky could remember was going over a couple bodies of water. If he had tried hard enough he could name the bodies of water, but he had been too wrapped up in his book to care. ”Hello…” he mumbled upon entering the kitchen, but didn’t venture in. The food smelled and looked delicious, but should he try some? He wasn’t hungry, so was there a point in getting food if he wasn’t going to eat it? So instead of venturing into the kitchen and finding food like the others, he stood next to the entrance, his back against the wall, and looked around at the others through his dark brown eyes. Studying the others. Wondering who they were, what they were like. Wondering who he’d seen before and who were new. So many questions went through his head and Sky wanted to chuckle at himself. No wonder he read all the time, otherwise too many questions would be going through his head at any given time. OOC

![]() Cassandra stirred from her peaceful slumber to the weight of a familiar being jumping onto her bed. Cassie lazily opened one of her eyes and found herself looking straight into the face of Lucien, her dog. She smiled and took a hand out of the covers to stroke Lucien's fur. "Je suis déjà réveillé", she said as she threw off the covers and stretched her hands in the air. Lucien got off the bed and paced towards the bathroom, understanding Cassie's sentence 'I'm already awake.' in french. Cassie got out of the bed and walked to follow Lucien. Her dog had dragged a towel towards her and Cassie pat his head as she took it and walked towards the shower. Lucien walked out, closing the door behind him. Cassie took a quick body shower, tying her hair up and enjoyed the water on her skin. She had an affinity with water and always liked to be anywhere near it. Once she had finished bathing, she went to her wardrobe and looked through the small suitcase she had brought along with her. She had only been here a few days but she remembered in the torrent of events before coming here, she had had only a short period of time to pack so she only brought her essentials. She was grateful that she was able to take Lucien with her. She momentarily wondered how her father was doing but she shoved the thought to the back of her mind as she brushed her hair and looked in the mirror. She had opted for denim cutoff shorts and a t-shirt. Her face was left bare and her charm bracelet jingled every time she moved her right hand. She smiled a small smile then did her bed. In America, she hadn't needed to do it but for the most part, Cassie was too used to doing things for herself that her habits just remained. Once it was done, she walked out of her room, Lucien following out behind her until she closed her bedroom door then proceeded to trot down towards the kitchen. Cassie heard the sound of a waterfall nearby and smiled. She had noticed it the day before and went exploring but she felt today would be more productive remaining in the house. When she got to the kitchen, Lucien barked happily at Aeon before heading to the little corner where the mother of the house had left food and water for the Pyrenees dog. Cassie smiled. "Good morning, Aeon." Cassie grabbed a plate and stared at the giant display of food. There was just too many good choices to make. Cassie settled for 2 pieces of pancakes, a banana and a few pieces of cut fruit, deciding that it wasn't polite to waste food. She sat down at the table, noticing the other teens sitting around the kitchen. Cassie smiled when she caught the eye of one of them then went back to her food. She wasn't typically shy but she hadn't eaten in a while. While she was eating though, she did steal glances at the others that were seated there. She didn't stare long to not be rude and despite her outgoing personality, she was a little hazy with the current situation. She had thought it a little insane that she was here in this house but she couldn't have been any other place. It was ever since she found that rock. And she felt more attached to it then she ever felt before, which was foreign to her but just being here felt right. Except she was still skeptical that there was more to this than what she knew..and she knew very little. |

![]() *This food is delectable* Amelia Virtϋn thought to herself smiling after the first few bites. Some like this was rare for her too, as good food was hard to make especially after living alone for so long. It was good to have the taste of someone who is proficient in cooking marvelous amounts of food, with a good taste as well. Noticing, with her eyes' peripheral vision, one person walk in with a shy movement and claimed a “hello”… It was kind of a good ice breaker amongst the silence of the morning that occurred, but he didn’t choose to join the breakfast table and decided to stay against the wall near the entrance. Then soon afterwards, another joined in but also with an animal. Adorable exclamation of a bark as she walked in and greeting the hostess, *I think she caught my slightly peering peripherals* Amelia thought once more, but once looking away to go back to eating the marvelous breakfast her eyes flashed from her normal green eyes, to a glowing blue color only for a split second. She felt awkward after that short moment but a number had appeared before her in mind *11*. She had not even finished the enjoyment gathered from the morning breakfast, and then this interruption from her inner zodiac spirit interrupts her. She sighed heavily and stopped eating to stand up to walk over towards Aeon. Upon arriving a slight distance in Aeon’s peripherals Amelia grinned and bowed her head slightly, “Good morning Aeon,” Amelia said lifting her head back up, “I wanted to ask you this question, sort of hovering in my head, but… what is this place that you had taken ‘us’ chosen people of this world?” The question was asked before she knew it, what a blunt question to bring at such early light and there were others that have not arrived for breakfast either. Amelia silently cursed at herself keeping her mind straight forward hoping for an answer “supposedly.” For years Amelia Virtϋn had dealt with the cursed exotic looking die that she wears as a pendant around her neck. Unfortunately, it was found the hard way that not rolling the day at least twice a day would cause her to have migraines and a searing, blood curling, high pitched noise ringing in her brain. Even though this was painful, it did not damage her body at all. A situation that was never understood, nor was it welcomed when such a thing occurred. She constantly has to fight with herself, to never lose such a rare object nor should she give it away to a willing hand, a horrible story that Amelia has to live with to remind her that such a gem could cause harmful damage but not to her. What she does not know is that the oddly, exotic, die-shaped gem carries a part of the Virgo’s spirit. Like a timed bomb, this high pitched noise carrier can cause permanent damage, or even death, to a willing hand that carries such a gem, which this had happen to a merchant Amelia, went to and traded the precious exotic die for food. When traded, she was happy to have food on her plate when she returned to a lonely home, but the gem was still connected to the Virgo spirit within, in which caused Amelia to hear low toned beeping noises like a grandfather clock would chime every hour. Counting down for a 24-hour time period, she went crazy and paranoid trying to find out what was happening, such a curse that she held, as when the chimes stopped after 24 hours she had thought relief had come at last. This was unfortunate as she lost hearing, gained a familiar migraine, and heard the same high pitched noise that wasn’t as painful as it usually was. When she figured out what happened it was too late, that is when she found herself in the trader’s home and seeing the slightly large man dead on the floor. She can still to current times see the man’s face of horror and blood, lying on his back and a death clutch with hands grasping his head. She cried in horror not even knowing such a thing could happen, but her migraine continued until the gem was once more in her hands, and she regained hearing and ate the food she had gotten from the man in unknowing guilt and pain. Coming back to reality after a few seconds of a flashback, she spoke in her mind as to converse with her inner spirits, *Why must I be reminded of such a horrible time in my life.* Amelia claimed to her spirits, but not hoping for an answer to appear in her head as she patiently watched Aeon's cooking in progress with a smile on her face. (History behind the exotic die pendant thing, thought it could use an explanation why she would have with her in plain sight)… ![]() |

Steven sat alone in the house, which was dark except for the light of the TV in his room. Struggling to stay awake he turned up the volume on the TV despite the fact he wasn’t listening to it. He ran his hand through his hair and yawned, his father should be home soon and Steven didn’t want to fall asleep before he knew his father was safe. Suddenly the TV cut out and Steven heard a pitch whistling sound. He instinctively reached under his bed and pulled out his IMI Desert Eagle and flicked doff the safety. Making his way over to the window he braced himself for the tell-tale signs of a bombing, fire, rubble, screaming people. Looking out his window he gasped as rainbow coloured meteors rained down across the sky. It was beautiful. He gave a cursory glance to the rest of the city to check that nothing was amiss before looking back to the sky. He dropped below the windowsill as he noticed one of the meteors heading towards his house. The whistling noise grew to a whine as the meteor smashed through his neighbour’s house and came to a rest in the small park across the street. “'Jo de puta!” muttered Steven as he rushed out of his room. Bursting out the front door of his house he had one thought on his mind. He had to get to the meteorite before anyone else. He didn’t know why, but he knew it was important. He skidded to a halt as the beeping of a car horn disrupted his thoughts. “Gilipollas” shouted the driver of the car. Steven ran towards the meteorite and the car zoomed off behind him. He reached the meteorite and knelt beside it. He flinched at the heat but remained where he was. It has mostly burned up in its flight through the atmosphere, what was left was the size of a jewel one might find on a bit of jewellery. Steven smiled as he imagined the small red rock embedded in one of the silver bracelets he loved to wear. Taking of his shirt he quickly wrapped it around the rock and rushed back home. Rummaging through his drawers, he found a sterling silver bracelet and removed the fake gem that came with it by prying it out with his pocket knife. Removing the meteorite from his shirt, he sat it in the indent left by the fake gem and almost dropped the bracelet in surprise as the rock fused itself into the bracelet flawlessly. Slipping the bracelet onto his wrist he climbed into bed and was soon asleep. |

Aristotle woke up just like every other morning to his positively WONDERFUL alarm clock, or at least he found it wonderful, being that it blasted a different song from his Ipod each day, and being that he had 10,000 song on the blessed thing it almost ensured never hearing the same song twice. He tended to wake up a little bit later than most people, only by say a half hour, just so his alarm clock wouldn't wake others. The best part being that each mornings song genre was MUCH different than the last. Today it was the song 'For the longest time' being covered by a British vocal group call 'The Overtones'. He got out of bed and danced around his room like a moron till the song was over till he turned off the alarm. He walked over to his closet, he had unpacked when he had arrived at 2 in the morning. He selected a pair of nicer jeans, a white undershirt, a whit button up shirt, and an vest of his that he liked. He put on his belt and put his stainless steel saber. It wasn't his usual practice to carry his fencing saber around on him, not in public at least, police officers, public standards and what not. However when he was somewhere he felt he didn't have to worry that much about his reputation he always kept it on him, it just made him feel safer. His right ring finger itched, he went to scratch it and then remembered how annoying phantom pains were, especially when his right ring finger had been gone for a year. He threw his Phone into his pocket and headed down stairs. Aristotle was the kind of person who always seemed to have enough energy to function, never excess so that he was bouncing off the walls, or so little he seemed like he was part of the mile high club. So when he got into the kitchen he said "Morning everyone!" loud enough to be head by all, but wasn't screaming it. He walked over to the woman he assumed was the house mother "you must be the house mother, nice to meet you, Aristotle" he said to her holding out his hand to shake hers. He then made a hefty plate of 2 pancakes 4 sausages 1 banana an apple 2 oranges and 6 pieces of toast. He didn't generally eat this much, but he hadn't eaten since a day before he left for his drive from Rome to Actually come to think of it, he had no idea where he was, I'm gonna want to figure that out he thought to himself. Between mouthfuls, as politely as he could, he tried to tell the housemother (whose name he still didn't know) "delizioso!". |

Nihil Temptatum, Nihil Potitum "I wish none of this had ever happened" "So do all who see such times, but that is not for them to decide, all you have to decide is what to do with the time that is given with you" "Youre ugly" "Youre drunk" "That may be...but tomorrow morning. I'll be sober, and youll still be ugly" | |

Aeon looked up from the sink, where she was busy cleaning dishes, and looked at everyone who has assembled. "Good morning children. For those who do not know, I am Aeon." she wiped the water off her hands on a rag, and turned to face them. "I hope you find your meals satisfactory." she then turned to face Amelia, "This place is a safe haven for you." she said, not explaining much. "As for where we are, you will learn that soon enough." she then turned to face the entire crowd. "There will be a meeting in the living room in ten minutes. I would like you all to be there." she stated before leaving. Sonny looked at everyone who had entered after him, and sighed. He nodded in Aeon's direction, his acknowledgement that he heard and would do what she asked. Once she left, he turned to the others. "Hello, everyone. I am Sonny. Gemini." he introduced himself. He ran his fingers through his hair, his foot tapping on the ground. He looked around, not quite sure what to say. There were quite a few people there, none of whom he knew. Being around people he didn't know was a new thing for Sonny. Having grown up in such a small town, he never was around people he didn't know. He looked around "Does anyone know why we're here?" he asked. He leaned back in a chair, and sighed. He had no idea what was going on, and could only hope someone else might understand things better than he did. He had a few theories, of course, but nothing was for sure. OOC

"Sonny, I'm Aristotle. Nice to meet you" Aristotle said as he held out his right hand to shake his. "Sagittarius" he added. Aristotle then went around to every other person in the room and introduced himself, making sure to remember their names. One girl took him by surprise just by how vividly green her eyes were. He didn't particularly pay attention to what the others did while he was introducing himself to the others. He realized he had two minutes to kill before he had to go to the living room, he quickly ran to his room and switched his saber out for his rapier, he just liked it better, it felt more natural in his hand and on his belt. When he was about to leave he realized he'd forgotten to make his bed. He turned around to do such and realized someone had made it for him. "Must have been Aeon....Oh well". On his pillow was a small brown package, about the size of his fist. He read the label, it was from his parents. Dear Aristotle, Your father saved part of the meteor that fell into the neighboring apartment complex. He thought you'd like it as a reminder of us whenever you use it. Sincerely, Mom and Dad It was in his mothers slanted handwriting. He opened the box and found in it two items. The first was a short laced necklace with part of the meteor on it, he quickly put it around his neck. The other item was a balance for the hilt of his rapier. It had a Greenish bluish looking jewel at the very bottom of it. He put it in his pocket and headed down stairs to change it with his regular balance once he got into the living room. When he got to the living room he hadn't realized how much time he'd spent in his room and only JUST made it in time. Once he got in the room he leaned against a wall and unsheathed his sword to change out the counter weight on the hilt with the new one. He'd have to remember to return the letter to his parents, but for now he'd just listen because he was rather curious about what was going on. Edited by Achilles, November 29, 2011, 10:30 am.

Crystal waited until after the announcement to sneak back up to her room. She didn't know the matron very well, so she decided she had best write a letter to express how she was feeling. [tab]Dear Aeon I am uncertain why I feel this desire, but I was wondering if I could please have the meteorite that was taken from me. Specifically, the one that fell in my woods, slightly before I was taken here. If you would do this for me, I would be most grateful. [tab]Sincerely, Crystal G. Mylas Crystal read the short letter over a few times. It seemed a bit too professional, but no matter. She took the note downstairs, and silently handed it to Aeon before going into the living room and settling down in the corner of the room. |

Watching everything from a distance without partaking in any conversation or anything, Sky couldn't help but feel awkward around all these other people. Some were outgoing while others were just as awkward as him. Watching the way they tried to figure information out though, Sky figured they were shy merely because this was their first time meeting others they don't know. Sky figured most of them would open up sooner or later, and when that happened it was going to be just like any other group of teenagers. So keeping to himself, Sky waited until the majority of the people started leaving. That didn't happen though until after one boy moved around introducing himself to others. When the person got to him Sky merely muttered his name awkwardly, not wanting to look the boy in the eyes. Luckily he moved on to another person nearby and Sky was free to do whatever he wanted. There was a meeting in a few minutes, and everyone disbursed to take care of things beforehand. Sky needed to do none of that so instead of filing out like the others, he wandered over towards the food with his hands stuffed in his pockets and stared at the remaining food. There was plenty for him to steal some, so grabbing a sausage with his hand he put it in his mouth and slowly started to chew on the edges so he could eat without actually using his hands. His hands then grabbed a waffle and a piece of toast and about half way finished with the piece of sausage he started his way out of the room. Just as he was starting to leave, a male asked if anyone knew why they were there. This caused Sky to stop his escape and merely lean against a wall instead. It would be interesting to hear if anyone had anything to say. But was anyone paying attention to him. The other boy had introduced himself when this boy spoke earlier, but now less people were sticking around and even less were talking. Just a small group of awkward teenagers. This is going to be a FUN meeting in a few minutes. "We'll soon find out, Gemini..." he said and then put the waffle in his mouth and started chewing on it. Sure, it wasn't the cleanest thing in the world to be eating a waffle from his hands without a plate, but he didn't need syrup or anything so just eating it like that was fine. Sky didn't really bother calling this boy by his real name because he honestly hadn't paid much attention other than to the sign he was. "I'm sure we'll get all the information we need when we meet with Aeon in the living room..." he then started his way out of the kitchen. |

Cassie looked at the boy that introduced himself as Sonny. She noticed that the group of teenagers that were in this household were a mix of different personalities. Some were outgoing, like her, while others pretty much kept to themselves. Cassie was generally a more confident person than she was acting right now but she felt a little insecure with herself. She was in a foreign location with people she didn't know. She didn't regret her decision because at the time, it had felt like a calling that she couldn't refuse. It had been absolutely terrifying but at the same time, it ignired an exhilaration in her that had been missing from her life for a while now. Cassie came out of her thoughts when another boy by the name of Aristotle spoke up. Sagittarius. Cassie noted for the briefest moment that he was good looking but pushed the thought aside, trying to register the faces of everyone in the room. It was a difficult feat as some of the teenagers had scattered from the kitchen after Aeon had told them about the meeting. That meant that not everyone stuck around to introduce themselves. Cassie figured that the introductions could wait until later and then she'd be able to put a name to each face. Another boy spoke up and Cassie paid attention to what he said. The boy had introduced himself as Sky. Cassie took notice of his exotic features. Her thoughts broke concentration when Lucien nudged Cassie's hand with his nose. She looked down and smiled at her dog. She looked up again to look at the time on the clock in the kitchen and realised that it was almost time. "Come Lucien." Cassie turned on her heel and walked towards the living room with Lucien fresh on her heels until she got near the room before overtaking her and waltzing right in. Cassie couldn't help but laugh to herself. Whenever she was in doubt, her dog somehow knew what was on her mind. She was a little unsure of herself but she took a deep breath and walked right in. It was a really big living room and Cassie made her way towards one of the long couches and sat closest to Aeon. The mother of the house had a calming presence about her that reminded Cassie sadly of her own mother. Her nostalgia didn't quite show on her face as she sat down. She wasn't going to open up to anyone about her past. Instead, she tried to be discreet but she couldn't help but look at all the other teenagers in the room. Now what?

![]() It seemed like answers were vibrant nor forth coming. An old fashioned game of follow the leader was what it came down to this morning. Hopefully the gaps of information between the time of the meteor shower to now, in this mystery place, will be filled by knowledge and words. For now though, the leader needed followers and that was what Amelia was going to set out to do. She had seen some of people in this room gravitate towards the exit, some started their introductions, a name and their zodiac affiliation. These two pieces of data were simple, but seemed important to the situation. As Amelia started towards the exit to head towards the living room, she paused for moment in her tracks *where is the living room?* Amelia thought to herself confused on the location of this room and realizing that she had lost sight of Aeon presence. "Great..." whispering quietly try to think of what she should actually do, but there was only one thing to really do at this moment in time, "I am Amelia..." stating her name for everyone to hear, "Virgo is my astrology." She put on a cheerful smile as she took a seat nearby where she had stopped walking. As the time comes down to its last few minutes, Amelia would stand to start the supposedly short journey to the living as well as everyone else. OOC

Light filtered through the window and onto Steven's face, his eyes squinted as he let out a long yawn. What the hell? Steven looked around with an air of suspicion. This was not the room he fell asleep in. He tried to remember if anything had happened the night before but all he could see was a hazy picture. He rose out of the bed and looked around the room. It was very spartan, there was nothing apart from the essentials in the room. Walking around his gaze fell to the cupboard, there was a note on the door. "Steven, I apologise for bringing you here in this way, but you would never have consented to come otherwise. You have been brought here with people who are like yourself, although they came in a more willing fashion. I can't tell you where you are but I promise you that if you are in the living room for breakfast you will meet your peers, and all will be explained. I promise we'll extend every courtesy to you during your stay but for a full explanation I would have you attend the breakfast. Apologetically, Aeon P.S. - The living room is downstairs to your right" Steven fumed, what was this nonsense about being taken somewhere? He opened the cupboard and saw his clothes had been brought as well. He pulled out a Liverpool jersey and some jeans, got changed and made his way down to the living room. May as well see what this Aeon person is on about. When he arrived in the living room, the occupants heads turned towards him, he wasn't sure who was who or if any of them were Aeon so he decided to just announce himself. "Uh, Hi. I'm Steven and could someone please tell me what the hell is going on here?" |

![]() The dark-haired Gemini looked around at everone once more, nodding in the direction of those who spoke to him, before making his way along after the crowd to the living room, where they were apparently going to find out what was going on. He made his way into the room, and sat down, his feet tapping to an unheard beat. Sonny was always like that, unable to sit still. He had this constant urge to move, to the point where he couldn't be completely still if his life depended on it. He looked at everyone around him, but found himself at a loss for words. It wasn't because he didn't know what was going on, which he didn't, but because he wasn't about to take a leadership role. He was no leader. He was independant, sure, and able to make his own decisions. But a leader? Never. At that point, Sonny noticed Aeon. Aeon watched in silence as the teens filed into the room. She waited until everyone was there before speaking. "Welcome. You are all wondering why you're here, I'm sure. Much of what is going on will be difficult to understand, and is, for that reason, not going to be revealed at once." she paused, mostly to take breath, and make sure she said things properly. "As you are all well aware, there is a war going on. The Third Great War, WWIII. Of course, you might not see what this could possibly have to do with you, but in reality, it has everything to do with you. Each of you are part of a different house of the sun, a different Zodiac. You already knew that. What you didn't know is that it is much more. Though you would never know from looking at you, you are the physical incarnation of your respecitve Zodiac. A Living Zodiac, if you will." she paused once again, this time for effect. That was a lot for any teenage child to comprehend. They were the physical incarnatinos of the Zodiac; the mysterious powers that everyone saw, but never really paid much mind to beyond the use in simple fortune-telling tricks. "You are here for a reason. My dear Ophiuchus has traveled the world, searching, and gathering each of you here, for one purpose - to learn. You must learn how to become the Zodiac that you are, learn how to control your powers, for powers you have indeed. You must save the world before all is lost." she stated. Sonny stared at the woman as she spoke. The physical manifestation of a Zodiac? Him? It was a ridiculous thought. There was no way he could be special...He was nothing. A boy from the middle of nowhere in the most god-forsaken country known to man. He couldn't be a freakin Zodiac incarnate! "Why couldn't you be?" his voice echoed in his mind as he contimplated the woman's words. "Who's to say you couldn't be special? You deserve it just as much as any other." he nearly smiled. It was true. There was confusion throughout the room, that much was obvious to Sonny before he even took his gaze off of Aeon. He didn't understand how it was that he knew that, but he did. He glanced at the others, and shrugged, letting them know that he was just as confused as they were. Edited by Dream, December 16, 2011, 7:52 pm.

Aristotle had just finished replacing the counter-weight on his hilt by the time Aeon started listening. He listened intently to everything she had to up till she said that they were all the living reincarnations of Zodiacs. At that point the foot he had on the wal he was leaning on slipped off the wall in disbelief. He listened to the rest of Aeon openly and thought about every word she said. After she finished speaking the atmosphere was that of shock and disbelief. The boy on the couch shruged. Which Aristotle understood that he was letting everyone else know he was just as confused, but shrugging didnt really help anyone. He broke the silence. "So...so were zodiacs, and we, we have powers? like what kinda powers we talking about? Telekenisis? blowing things up with our mind? Shooting lasers from our eye? " The fact was that Aristotle wouldnt believein the powers until he saw a demonstration of sorts, but he would go with it. HE would go with it till his death cause this was it. Whether this older couple were clinically insane and really believed what she had just told them, or they had just smoked WAY TOO MUCH weed, or by some divine intervention they werent high, insane and were in fact right and all of the kids plus him really were reincarnated zodiacs, no matter what, this was it. This was his chance to have real adventure. So whether this went horribly wrong in any way, it was worth the risk to him and he;d go with it to the ends of the earth. |

Crystal looked at Aeon skeptically. When Aristotle asked his questions, another inquiry rose to her mind. "Save the world from what?" she asked calmly. I mean, if this rag-tag band of teenagers was supposed to save the world, she wanted to know what they we're supposed to be saving it from. Ever since she woke up this morning, it had seemed to her like the beginnings of a bad action movie. How were they expecting her to believe this? There was nothing special about her, and now they're telling her that shes some sort of constellation-made-flesh? No way was she going to believe this. Especially the part about having superpowers. It just wasn't logical to believe that this kind of thing could ever happen outside of storybooks. But, assuming that Aeon was actually telling the truth, why her? Out of the trillions of people on this planet, why was she one of twelve special people that was chosen to be one of the reincarnations of the zodiac? She was just another girl, there was nothing special about her. Crystal took her hat off of her head and started playing with the brim of it, her bright green eyes glancing around at the faces of the other people in the room. Some of them looked just as skeptical as her. Then she looked back at Aeon. Why should she trust this woman in the first place? Why should she believe anything that these people said? They had just whisked her away from her home and everything that she knew and brought her to this house with a bunch of random teenagers, and now they were feeding her a bunch of hardly-believable fantasies. It would be nice to believe Aeon, but Crystal would need some proof before believing. "Look, you seem like a nice lady, but I find it very hard to believe that what you say is true." She said brashly. If everyone was thinking it, why not say it? "This simply seems too fantastic to be true. I don't want to be a Johnny Raincloud, but have you forgotten about reality? This sounds impossible. |

Confusion marred Cassie's features as she listened intently to what Aeon had to tell them. There was a heaviness building up within her that felt similar to something Cassie experienced long ago. Something that she never thought she would be able to. Her anxiety might not have only been apparent to everyone sitting in the room but from his resting spot near Cassie's legs, Lucien whined slightly and looked at his owner with slight concern. Cassie looked at her pet and gave a small smile. She was still ok. Zodiac? "..You must save the world before all is lost." After Aeon had finished speaking, it felt to Cassie as though she was experiencing de javu. It had been the same feeling she experienced when she was told that she was moving to America - without the only family she was used to, her mother. Given, the severity of both were uncomparable but to her, she knew that almost all she knew then was about to change. Cassie had to no idea she was holding her breath until she finally let out air. After regaining her breath, she thought about what being a physical manifestation of a Zodiac meant. She was a Pisces with the water element. Could it be after all the ups and downs throughout her life, there was a higher purpose than what she was 'destined' for. Her thoughts then wandered to her father and grandmother. What of them if she did this? What if she died trying to win this war? Cassie was conflicted but deep within her she knew that if she didn't try, all she knew would be lost anyway. Cassie snapped out of her revelry and looked around. Surely enough, every teenager in the room had a confused aspect about them but like she was, each were contemplating Aeon's words in a way that was unique to each of them. Her attention went to Aristotle when he spoke. So far, there were only a few people whom she knew the names of. Cassie blinked. She had let that equally important detail slip from her mind. She was meant to have power..but what kind of power? Another girl spoke up, asking another question that was important: what were they saving the world from? It sounded like there was more to it then them trying to stop adults from continuing with this war. Cassie waited patiently for Aeon's responses to the questions. |

![]() *Taken to an unknown place, meeting unknown people, eating an unknown breakfast… well, the breakfast was actually delectable, but that’s just besides the point,* Amelia thought to herself thinking about the past events that had happen, and why they might have happened. It was very intriguing to hear this “classified” information, being a person who wanted to know some of this knowledge long before. It seemed to make sense at some point, but why? *People had died, and could have truly been my fault,* this thinking was shaking her brain in all directions and what could she have done. *Stop thinking about, or else, your lack of sleep may as well just catch up to you.* Trying to stay focused on Aeon’s words proved to be difficult as she mentioned the fact that they were all similar in terms of being reincarnations, but the major issue was the idea of saving the world. A band of adolescent and miscreant teenagers, and they think that Amelia will take this lightly, to fight something paranormal or extraterrestrial with herself being of the same kind. Although, the idea of having powers was marvelous to hear. There was only one issue she cannot truly foresee, what would the consequences be to use such power or to be on a battlefield? Then Amelia's eyes flash and her mind revealing a number to her, "6", then returning to reality, “I’m sorry to respond to your words, Aeon, but is there truly a reason for us to be part of such danger that could happen?” Amelia questioned after hearing others speak out, “Does this have anything to do with the meteor that impossibly crashed before my eyes so long ago?” Questions and thoughts were surely running through everyone’s minds, but what good is it if Aeon is interrupted by such words, but Amelia calmed down and kindly took a seat to see what was truly going on in this damned world. If this was truly classified information, or something that the whole world should not have complete knowledge about, then listening to what this person has to say may be worth the time. Otherwise, why waste accommodations and fresh foods for something so ridiculous. Edited by TheNinjai, December 20, 2011, 4:25 pm.

A girl with blood red bangs and jet black hair awoke in a room by herself, she slowly sat up and looked around at the strange room. The girl's name was Anastasia and she had been an orphan all her life, she wasn't use to having a bed, she was use to have a few newspapers or a cardboard box. Anastasia got out the bed and looked around a little worried. She walked to a large mirror and looked at herself in it. Anastasia fixed her black and dark blue shirt and her hair. She held her arm and looked around the room again, she thought that she was dreaming this up but every time she pinched her arms, it started to hurt, this meant that this was real. Anastasia was an odd girl to most of the people that she met in her country, she was Russian and they found it odd how her hair was two different colors and how she seem to be able to survive in the harsh winters of Russia. Anastasia finally gathered enough courage to walk out the room into a hall, she closed the door and slowly started to roam the hallways. Anastasia looked at the walls and held her arms tightly, 'Where am I? How did I get here?' she thought to herself as she slowly walked farther down the hallway and arrived at an opening. She looked in the opening to another room, she slowly walked to the opening and peeked in,her red bangs covered her eyes as she seen people eating and talking. Having fear of people, Anastasia quickly ducked back behind the wall and remained quiet, she then slowly peeked out again and listened to what they were saying, 'I wonder if I should go out and talk to them?' Anastasia thought as she stayed behind the wall. [i hope this is ok] |

![]() Sonny looked at each of them in turn, listening as they each voiced a question that was sure to be on everyone's mind. He then turned to face Aeon, waiting for her to explain everything. Aeon, on the other hand, just gave the gathered teens a smile. "All will be understood in time." was all she said in way of explanation. She knew that the teens would never be satisfied with that, but there was no other option. She couldn't very well go through and tell them everything, they weren't ready to handle such information. Instead, she gave them what should be enough to keep them curious. The rest would come with time. For his part, Sonny was in the middle of a huge internal conflict. The rational part of his mind called everything that Aeon was saying insane. The other half, however, couldn't help but ask "why not?" It was a struggle that the young man went through every day, and could very easily be very bad. That was unimportant, at the time, however, because there was too much going on already for the young man to worry about whether or not he could trust his mysterious second half. Upon hearing Aeon's explanation, or lack thereof, he glared. Nobody was going to like hearing that, there was no doubt in his mind. What was worse was that it seemed that she was going to say nothing more, because sure enough, she turned and with a smile, left them to their own devices. Seeing that they were alone, Sonny turned to the rest of them. "So...what is going on here?" he wondered aloud. Edited by Dream, January 19, 2012, 6:56 pm.

WELL Aristotle said loudly in a 'well that's that' voice as he clapped his hands once. I do not know what they're smoking up here, but I wouldn't recommend lighting any exotic plants on fire, or drinking the punch. I'm gonna go look around, may as well at least learn my way around the place he said sarcastically as he left the room. Let's go explore he thought going out the other side that wasn't leading to the kitchen. He walked, opening up doors, making random turns and taking different halls and paths. He ended up going through a couple of rooms multiple times. He eventually found what seemed like the library, or at least it was full of books. He walked across to a door that had to small windows on either side of it. Oh this is too cool! he said as he walked out onto the walls of the castle. Oh this is just like in the history books and movies! he said filling with a sense of joy that made him smile ear to ear. He couldn't stop smiling, the wind was blowing across the castle walls and it was blowing his hair and ruffling his clothes. He walked all the way around the walls several times. Feeling the cobblestone under his feet, how it reminded him of the tales of the knights of old, with castles and dragons, that's what really made his mind up in the end. crazy or not, these people are my ticket to a real adventure. I'm in he though as he walked through the first tower. When he walked in he realized there was no electricity in the tower just some torches on the wall. Hahahaha, oh my god I cant believe this is really happening he said as he pulled out a Zippo lighter and with hopeful skepticism tried to light one of the old cobweb covered torches. It worked! he shouted with glee! he took it off the wall rack and lit the other two torches on that level. He looked around, alright, so I could do with more light, but I can definitely see around he thought as he walked head first into a ladder. Ow. he said quite calmly as he looked up at where the ladder led. a tarp door!he exclaimed as he immediately started climbing it with one hand, torch in the other. When he reached the top he finagled the torch in his hand so he could still hold on with one hand and open the trap door with the other. Dammit its locked he cursed as he climbed back down clumsily. He put the torches back on their racks and extinguished them before he left. Then he had an idea, Ill ask Aeon for the key! and at that he ran off to find her. |

Since there was really nothing better to do, Chris decided to go back to her room to think things over and plan her next move. Without glancing at any of the other teens there, she hurried up to the room she had been given. The squeaking of her bedroom door grated against Crystal's ears as she slammed herself into seclusion. She sank down on top of the worn-out mattress that she had been supplied with. A slight breeze wafted through the open window, sending pleasant shivers down her spine. She felt something in the small of her back, and reached down to grasp it in her hand. It felt like a piece of paper wrapped around a rock. When she pulled it out to look at it, lo and behold, it was an envelope with something lumpy in it. Crystal pulled out a familiar-looking stone, set in silver and attached to a pendant. It was the small meteor that had fallen in her woods. Almost immediately, a strange feeling worked its way into her limbs. As she clasped the necklace around her neck, doubts filled her mind. Should she trust these people? What did they want from her? Were all the other teenagers here in on it? She would just have to wait and see. Chris closed her eyes and started to drift off, a habit she picked up from her brother. When life got too complex, he would go to sleep and let his subconscious take over his thoughts for awhile. She thought back to the time when he explained it to her. [tab][tab]Crystal, here's a tip. Whenever you get overwhelmed by life, and it just feels like a tidal wave's about to sweep you off your feet, just go take a nap. It gives your mind a time to stop and think, and you'll wake up feeling better. He smiled at her and pulled her hair in a brotherly way. I'm just looking out for you, kid.
