She heard a male voice curse loudly behind her as she walked down the hall, but Tatiana didn't bother looking back. Now down at the office, Tatiana stood metres behind the other girls crowding around the list of dorm mates. She crossed her arms and shifted her weight to one foot as she waited for the girls to disperse. While she was waiting, Tatiana thought the lights flickered for a split second. Was there something wrong with the electricity in the school? The lights went off completely seconds after her thought. Tatiana heard babble around her, but stayed silent. What the hell? Did some idiot let his or her power out to screw with the lighting? Letting out a breath, Tatiana shifted her weight to her other foot and waited for the issue to be resolved.
((Jenna, could you make up the lists, or should we just pick at random? I dunno who she'd room with. o___o))

During the power surge, Locke had been unconcious, and in the medical building. He woke up after a few hours, but he saw nothing. The room was pitch black. 'What's going on?' He thought to himself. He held his head tightly as he sat up, knowing he had done something stupid. He got out of the cot he was in, and felt around the floor to find some kind of exit. He crawled for a few minutes, then felt his head bang against a woodern plank. He touched it, and raised his arms until he found a knob. He tried to turn it, but it was locked. 'Dammit!' he yelled in his mind. He stood up, still holding the knob.
He kept on twisting and turning the doorknob, and eventually, he gave up. He slammed his back against the door, and slid down to his buttocks. 'First day, huh?' he thought. He sat there, like a bump on a log. He could hear the clock ticking, second and second, then minute after minute. Just then, he head footsteps outside the door. He heard...two, no, maybe four, pairs of feet clapping on the ground. He kneeled down on the floor, and peaked through the crack under the door. He heard the feet stop at the door. Locke heard the gears clicking against each other in the knob. It slowly turned, and opened inwards. He quickly jumped back, as he saw several lights peek in. A few men walked in, two of which were casting a lighting spell. The man with the key in his hand stared at Locke for a breif moment. He klutched the keys, and placed them in his pocket. "Well well, water user. Looks like you've caused us a racket here." said the man. Locke cursed under his lips and tightened his face. "What did I do? I remember...I hurt a guard. But what happened to the light source?" he said. "Your energy," he said, "caused us a power surge. With the ammount of power in that one spell, not only severly injured the man, but created a disturbance in our energy sources. They malfunctioned, and stopped giving us power. It will take us a matter of days to fix them, all thanks to you. As your punishment, it will not be set aside. The higher ranks have decided, that either you give at least 100 hours of community service every month until we say for you to stop, or we expell you. Give or take, its not going to be a day at the beach." he said very firmly. 'Aw crap. Look what I've done...all because the waitress looked like my friend. Great, what a crappy start to my second year. My last year wasn't all that great at all either.' he thought to himself. "I'll do the community service, just as long as my privelages aren't taken away from me." he said. "Of course, with that power, we wouldn't want to make you an enemy towards us, just like-" the man stopped. "Never mind that. Get back to your dorm, and don't cause any more trouble, aright?" he continued. "Yes sir." Locke said.

H'Elle
He just made it back to his dorm room and was turning the knob when the lights went out. He sighed, and thought of changing - knowing that his cat eyes would be better in the dark than his human ones - and decided that, yes, that would be a good idea.
He willed the change on, feeling his body shrink and his skin ripple and tear as his body morphed. His clothes slipped to the ground and H'Elle fell forward onto four paws, his body shrinking all the more.
Soon, he was nothing more than a large orange tabby cat, in a tangle of clothing. After freeing himself, he went off to explore. ::
Beth
:: With the black out in effect, Beth grew more and more angry at everything around her. She pulled out the school map that was part of the pamphlet that was given to each new student - and, dodging giddy and frightened girls, as well as rambunctious boys, she made her way towards the training hall - where she could let off some steam. ::
ROOM LISTS
We all can be with NPCs for now, seeing as how there really isn't a lot of people...

((Ah, okay...I did notice some NPC activity here. I actually hate to have to do NPCs, since I find it boring...meh. *sighs and slams fist to table* Think it's okay if she has a room to herself? XD Seriously, I can't really NPC...if not, I'll edit this post. xP))
Tatiana waited for five more minutes, then the others left the room lists. She stepped over to the papers and let her arms down to her side. When she found her name, she noticed that there was not another name beside hers. Well, that was lucky. Tatiana reached into her bag for a notebook and a pen, wrote down her dorm number, then headed to her room.
After she put a few of her things away, Tatiana felt that she would actually look around the school for some unknown reason. She closed the door, locked it, then went off to wander. Since it was still dark, she used her skill to make a ball of fire follow her so that she could see. Tatiana walked the halls, fire floating around her head.

Locke exited the room after a few minutes. He followed the walls until he recognized the medical building lobby. He exited, and to his surprise, a few street lights were working. He wondered if a few of the energy machines were fixed yet. He continued his way until he went into the main building. When he entered the lobby, some people were casting lighting spells, others, using candles. He didn't want to be scene and pummeled senseless. He slid down the walls and took a shortcut to his dorm.
While he was walking, he heard footsteps. He crouched low, and saw a ball of fire circling soemthing. After a few seconds, he noticed what it was circling. It was Tatiana's head. And in instinct, he got up calling after her. He ran down the hall until he reached Tatiana and her little ball of fire. Locke had hoped she didn't know what he did, but he still wanted to talk anyways.

When she was just about to turn a corner, Tatiana thought she heard somebody call to her, and turned around on her heels, making her wavy hair flare out and spin. Since she didn't really look many people properly or in the eyes, Tatiana could not place the boy who just ran after her. Why would he want to talk to her, anyway? She put her weight on one leg and looked up at him, though not in his eyes.
"Hm," hummed Tatiana, "do I know you?" She crossed her arms, attempting again to figure out if she's seen this person before. No, she couldn't remember properly. So...why did he call her?

"Oh, I'm sorry!" Hikari said to the boy, a tiny nervous squeak swam between her words, "I-I-I, uhh..." She didnt know what to say. Maybe this was her destined love? " "Hmm... Were you the one who put out the lights? He said, "That mustve taken alot of talent!" She could not see it, but the boy was beyond smiles. "Here, this is my number. I dont think we can talk in a time like this..." Hikari was dead... not literally. Her body wouldnt move... *I know I havent even seen his face, but I really feel good about him!* She thought. She waved her hand in front of her, searching for the little paper. She found his hand, and took the paper. "Uhhh..-Uhh...-... th-thanks! I-I-I-'ll give you a call soon... B-b-bai!" She zoomed up the steps, tripped, got back up, and kept running. Her eyes turned yellow, and the power turned on again.

Hrm...well, the fact that Tia put out the lights, AW CRAP. I have to change a whole bunch of my posts...oh well...anyways.
Locke saw Tatiana quickly pacing herself to get away. He finally caught up to her, and saw Tatiana look at him...but it seemed like she didn't want to chat at all. Locke blushed as he put a hand on his head. He stuttered, then said, "H-Hey...Erm...well, we met at the assembly...I was the one who dozed off." He felt embaressed by the way it came out.

As she blinked, Tatiana noticed that the lights were on again. Good; now all the staff have to do now is punish the fool who lost control of his or her power. Really; how could such people belong to this school? Without moving, Tatiana put out the flame beside her head.
Seeing Locke's face redden, she breathed out audibly from her nose and tilted her head to the right. "I see." She said as if she were bored. Tatiana slid her eyes to the right momentarily, then tilted her head back at Locke, still not looking him in the eye. Okay, so he was that unfocused person who just had to sit next to her at the assembly. Hm. Shifting her weight to her other leg, she just looked at him as if expecting him to explain why he was talking to her -- which was, of course, what she wanted to know.

Wow. What a bit- haha no joking XD
Locke could see some irritation come out of Tatiana's expression. He could feel his head get heavy, and his body weak, and his forehead was burning up. He felt woozy, but cleared his mind. After a bit, he said, "Well, I guess I have no reason to talk...but I just wanted to apologize for earlier. I can tell that you don't want to be much of a person to 'hang out' with others constantly...I was like that too. Actually, I still am." With each word he said, he grew more confident in expressing himself around the school.
Locke felt, like he had accomplished something. Was it he became more social? The fact that he was able to talk to a female? He didn't know, but he felt good about himself.
Lol...I really don't know where to go from here XD

((Well, Tatiana's arrogant, and pretty cutthroat. XD I didn't mention the latter in her profile, though. ))
"It's okay," she said, "you already said sorry." It was fine until he started to analyze her behaviour. This really did irriatate her, but Tatiana wouldn't do anything that mean (at least, consciously) to a person she met recently that she didn't know much about. She would have said something about how she just doesn't like "hanging out" with people outside of school. She could have told Locke not to compare himself to her. But she decided to leave it alone.
Instead of that, Tatiana parted her lips to ask another question. "What's your name?" Tatiana inquired after a short moment of silence. She always asked another person's name before giving out her own. "And your ability?" She added, her eyes wandering all over the place.

Locke smiled when Tatiana asked him that. Had he actually gotten her to talk? He did, and he felt good. He knew that Tatiana seemed like a person who would shun most people, just like him, but she didn't shun Locke. He thought for a few seconds, of all the different ways he could say it. After a bit, he decided to just answer. Locke opened his mouth bit by bit, then said, "My name is Locke, and my power is the ability to control the element of water." He paused, then continued. "And what is your name and ability?"
Locke could hear himself talk really well. He was self concious about how others thought of him and the way he talked or did things. 'Dammit!!' he yelled in his mind. He could picture himself slapping himself across the face at a never ending pace. To Locke's surprise, it he could actually feel pain in his cheeks. Maybe it was Tatiana's power? Recreate the mind's thoughts into reality? Pondering and thinking as hard as Locke's brain could, he stopped everything working in his mind, because he heard Tatiana talk.

When she saw Locke smile, she guessed that he thought that she might be warming up to him. This was not the case; Tatania was just not very fond of this school right now, and she allowed some bitterness to show. She was not like this all the time. Well, better try to stop the attitude now. "Tatiana," she replied, "fire." She thought it would have been obvious, though; she did have fire next to her just a few minutes ago. Their skills opposed each other. Tatiana let out a short "hm", turned her head away, and tugged her scarf.
Out of nowhere, Tatiana spoke again. "I'm bored," she stated, turning her head back towards him. "Could you show me where the training hall is?" This time, her dimples showed as she spoke. Tatiana had nothing to do anyway, so she might as well. She let her arms down as if he already accepted her request. It didn't matter if he didn't want to go, though. Tatiana could go alone, but then she'd have to use a map. Meh.
((Lol, encounter with Beth? ))

Locke agreed to take Tatiana go to the training hall. "Sure...I guess." he said. He turned his head away, making a gesture for her to follow. As he took a few steps, he realized that it was stupid to ask what her power was. 'Didn't she JUST have a ball of fire around her? I'm pathetic!' he screamed to himself. He felt, uneasy...the walk was quiet, and silent. It reminded him of the riddle he had heard earlier. 'Don't say a word, it doesn't chang, say anything, and you've broken it. What is it?' was the riddle. He didn't realize himself say it aloud, but he did it anyways. "Duh, silence."
Just then, he felt like beating himself up.
Hehe, funny pun >.>
