Belle entered, and sat. He started asking her questions, so she tried to answer them to the best of her knowledge. How boring. Is this why he called me in? To question me about things he should already know?

Suddenly she got dizzy. Her vision got blurry, and everything went black.

 

[Everloving]

((Don't let her know that she was unconscious when she awakens. It is vital that no one knows anything odd is happening in the office...))

Once the girl was out, Horatio allowed his men to follow the same pattern they had the last time. Everthing went smoothly again and soon the girl was back in the chair, waking up...

Belle woke up a moment after her sight had gone completely black. I must not be getting enough iron in my system. That hasn't happened in over a year. Good thing it always passes quickly. Ouch. It feels like I have a headache. She held her hand up to her head and let out a groan. Her temples were throbbing, like they sometimes did when she had been in the sun too long. It wasn't out-of-the-ordinary. She had actually brought her own medicine for this kind of thing. She asked "May I be excused? I've gotten a headache."

After she left the office, she went directly to her room. She went into the bathroom and took out her pain pills. She filled a cup and took the pill, swallowing the water with it. I wonder if I could get out of classes... This stuff doesn't actually take effect for another half hour. She decided against it, and looked at the clock. WOW she was late. it had taken two hours? It couldn't have been more than half an hour! She shrugged it off, grabbed her backpack and went to her class, appologizing profusely at her tardiness.

Horatio nodded as the girl excused herself. Things were running smoother then he could have hoped. He buzzed his secretary again.

"Ms. Adams, I believe we are now prepared for our male trial. Send the message for Mr. Mateus to meet with me tonight after dinner. That will be all."

He closed his eyes and sat back. If things went according to his plans, he'd be able to find cures for all kinds of disease. He could heal cancer in a mere hour, maybe a little longer. But this was the beginning of miracles. Imagine the money he could make and the fame and glory he'd recieve. No one would ever ridicule him again, ever!

Dani walked into the dining room and saw that there were in fact eggs for breakfast. "Ha ha!! I knew it!!"

Riley slowly awoke to a loud blowing noise. As Riley's eye creeped open, they began to see the figure of her room mate hovered over the mirror. Riley slowly sat up in bed and scratched her head, then looked over at her clock, 7:12. "What are you doing at this ungodly hour of the morning?" Riley, barely awake, asked Amber her room mate.

"Unless you forgott, breakfast starts at eight, and i have alot to do to get ready for our first day of classes. " She said as she continued to blowdry her hair.

"But could you do all those things a little quieter." Riley moaned.

"Hey, i would have used one of the more lighted mirrors in the bathroom, but they were all taken. Tomorrow I'm just going to have to wake up earlier."

Riley moaned and rolled back over into her bed. "Wake me up at eight." Then riley covered her ears with her pillow and attempted to go back to lseep, but it was no use. Riley let out a big "uhhhh" Then got out of hr bed. She dug through her dreser, grabbed a pair of her favorite jeans and her yellow tee shirt from her old school, and headed out the door and down the hall to the bathroom, where she got dressed and brushed her teeth. Riley entered back into her room minuets later to find the Amber was finaaly finished with her blowdrying, but was no focused on her make up. Riley plopped back on her bed, stroked her long red hair a few times with her hairbrush, then looked at the clock. 7:25. "What am i goning to do now for another half hour?"

"OH my gosh, you should totally let me do yor make up." Amber said with her classic preppy attitude.

"Umm, no thanks. I think i'll just wait down stairs on the couch." Then riley sped out of that room as fast as she could.

 

[Praven]

((AUGH! I did post... Either I did nto push send, or CF cheated me...))

Kevin relaxed calmly in a lounge like area. He saw Riley enter and approach a couch.

He had left his room without waking his roommate. He did not take long at all to get ready, and most of his functions he could execute flawlessly in the dark. His phone vibrated once in his pocket. He pulled it out, and saw a message detailing that he meet the Principal after dinner.

 

[PixelPixie]

((Sorry for my lack of posting. Events and such keep me wrapped up.))

Aaron's eyes opened slowly as his body forced him awake. Looking over to the alarm clock it read 7:18. Aaron sighed and threw back the blanket, swinging his feet out of bed. Quickly throwing on a T-shirt and shoes, and running his hands down his jeans trying to get the wrinkles out, he left the room quietly, allowing his roommate to sleep away the morning.

"Nazgul!"

"Shut up! I know what they are!"

Aragorn stared at Addie as if she'd lost her mind. Maybe I have, she thought.

"Come, Addie! Run!"

She didn't obey. The Nazgul wouldn't hurt her, that much she knew. They may have just stabbed Frodo, and they could very well kill her, but Addie knew beyond a shadow of a doubt that they wouldn't hurt her. So she stood there on Weathertop, wind blowing her hair, staring into the dark abyss that was the Witch-King's face. Aragorn's warnings died on the wind as the Witch-King dismounted, glided toward her, and got down on one knee.

"Addison Payne," he said in that breathy, chilling voice of his, "It's time to get up."

"It...it what?"

"Addie, if you don't wake up now, you'll be late for breakfast. And you've seen how that one kid eats."

So it was a dream. The realization was at once disappointing and a relief. Disappointing, because this was the first time she'd dreamed about Middle-Earth, and a relief because she wasn't sure she wanted to be the Witch-King's ghost wife. Where would they honeymoon? What would their children look like? How would they get past the child welfare laws?

"Addie, come on! Get up!"

Addie reluctantly opened her eyes and stared at her roommate without expression. "Okay, I'm up. Ugh...what time is it?"

"Seven-thirty."

"And you're already dressed?"

"Yep."

Addie didn't ask how Elizabeth could be so chipper this early in the morning, but instead got out of bed, grabbed a pair of jeans and a T-shirt, and wandered down the hall to the bathroom for a shower.

((Just in case anyone didn't see, we're about two weeks into classes now..))

Xavier woke up and looked at his clock. 7:23. Cool, he'd have enough time to get ready today. He wasn't the kind of guy to set an alarm clock, but he always managed to wake up with enough time to look good and never be late. He looked over at his room mate. Still asleep. Adam had been in bed until breakfast evryday that they'd been at the school. Whatever, this guy wasn't his problem.

He pulled a fitted t-shirt over his head and pulled on a pair of dark jeans. He grabbed his comb and jel and quickly spiked his hair.

"Yep, I'm ready for class. Look out ladies, here I come."

 

[rockerchic]

Adam lay in his bed half awake, too lazy to get up. He had been up late last night and figured he'd skip breakfast this morning. He tried to fall back to sleep, but the sound of Xavier moving about the small room kept him up. He tried to ignore him, but then he heard a line he couldn't help but ignore.

"Yep, I'm ready for class. Look out ladies, here I come." Xavier siad ut in the open.

Adam sat up in bed, oh this was gonna be good. "Well at least your giving them fair warning, so they'll have plenty of time to run and hide." Adam said with a chuckle.

............................................................................................................................................

As Riley enter the lounge and headed strait for the most comfy looking couch. She was so focused on lying down that she didn't even notice her friend Kevin sitting not too far away. Riley liad down on the couch face first and grabbed a pillow in her arms, hoping to fall back asleep before breakfast started.

 

[Everloving]

Xaier turned and saw Adam sitting up in bed.

"Man, the only way a chic is gonna be running away from this is if you were standing behind me."

It was about time he gave Adam a bit of his own smack back.

 

[rockerchic]

Adam held his hands up to his heart. "aww, that really hurts", he said sarcastically, pretending not to care.

"You know I'm surprised you can stand, with your head being so big and all."

 

[Everloving]

Xavier laughed. "I guess it must be because I work out and stay in shape, tooth pick. It's a wonder you don't snap in half when the wind blow to strong."

Perhaps this was getting a little bit out of hand, but Xavier wasn't about to punk out now and be shown up by this boob.

 

[rockerchic]

"Toothpick?!" Adam's temper was about to yet again get the best of him. "I'll show you tooth pick." Adam dashed over to Xavier and swung a left hook at his face.

((i say you let Adam hit him, Xavier doesn't have any fighting experience.))

 

[Everloving]

((And let his pretty face get messed up?? Decisions Decisions...))

Xavier turned to leave for class when something suddenly hit him hard in the back of the head, sending him across the room onto the bed. He got up and glared at Adam as he rubbed his now throbbing head.

"What the heck was that!! What the frak is wrong with you, jerk??"

Suddenly, Xavier fell back onto the bed. The room suddenly felt as if it was spinning.

 

[rockerchic]

Adam didn't expect Xavier to turn, so his fist hit the hard back of Xavier's head. Xavier fell over and Adam pulled his throbbing hand back.

"You don't wanna mess with me!" he yelled back at him. Then Xavier fell beck onto the bed. "get up." Adam said unconcerned. Then Adam grabbed some clothes off the floor and left the room to go get a shower.

...............................................................................................

It was now eight and the cafeteria was now open. As Riley began to get up from her couch, she noticed one of the guys she had met a few days ago.

"Hey, Kevin." She said walking over to him. "Wanna eat breakfast with me today?"

Elya yawned and stretched. Glancing at over her alarm clock, she started freaking out.

"7:30! Dang it! I didn't shower last night!"

Elya rushed through her daily morning preparations; she only took 15 minutes in the shower, towel dryed her hair, combed it and mussed it up a little, skipped the eyeliner she usually wore a little of, threw on one of her many pairs of black pants, black t-shirt, and her favorite black jacket. The clock read 7:56. She looked over herself in the mirror and sighed. At least she was presentable and on time. Elya left her room and went downstairs to look for any of her friends.

Warren grumbled as he rolled out of bed. He had never been much of a morning person. He sat on his bed with his head in his hands trying to wake himself up. Blinking his eyes to get the sleep out, he stood up and started to get ready. Warren threw on his usual outfit and combed out his hair with his fingers. He left his room and headed towards the cafeteria.
