NISA School for the Magical Artes (11/24 Tuesday)

[Quillbell]

Holly grinned at the chaos. The students had all risen. Some had followed the boy out of the hall. Others were milling around in confusion. It was the perfect time to make her exit.

Frenchie's got spunk she thought with approval. She slipped to the rear of the hall and took escape route #3. She ascended a flight of steps, opened the window at the top and jumped through, landing lightly on the pavement outside. She was just in time to see the boy walk past her, heading towards his car. Suddenly a figure with purple hair thrust itself into the vehicle behind him. She was being pursued by an angry crowd. The car took off with a squeal of tires. Holly's grin widened.

Better and better. Let's see what happens. Glancing around first to make sure nobody was watching, she began to scale the closest metal electrical pole. Perched at the top, she pulled off her socks and shoes and delicately stepped out onto the wire. Electricity arched under her feet and she could feel it rushing through her veins. Bending her knees she pushed off, skating down the wires at an ever-increasing speed. She spotted the car after a few minutes. Choosing the right moment, she launched herself off the wire, landing on the hood of the car with a loud *thump*. With her transportation taken care of, she rolled onto her back and settled down to enjoy the ride.

Fiore was now completly awake, such a ruckus wouldn't allow him to be drowsy and so he started to make sense out of the shouts around him and since everyone was talknig about the same thing it didn't took too long for him to understand a catgirl had set the headmaster's hair in fire.

hahaha, I tought this school was going to be interesting but this is just too much.I must make aquaintaces with that lady.But where could she have gone too? He was smirking as he saw her dashing into a car.

"Alright let's go after it." Saying that he took off flying and started to go after the car.

[Necrofantasia]

Bernard was ready for some peace and quiet during the drive when his entrance into the backseat was cut off by a purple-haired catgirl. Heloise, quite surprised, remarked to him "Bernard, I do believe that" but was quickly cut off by a rathered flustered aristocrat who replied "Yes, Heloise, I just saw what happened." He turned to see the mob chasing them. "Now, as I don't want this vehicle destroyed by that rabble, I'd recommend getting as far away from them as possible. You're driving." The maid and her employer jumped into the front seat and took off.

Heloise attempted to assess the situation by asking what had happened to warrant a rabble's chasing them. "Oh, not much," said Bernard. "That cat in the back attempted to reenact the last scene of Gotterdammerung with the headmaster in the role of Brunnhilde. She has a real burning passion for magic, I suppose. In any event, we're fugitives now. Let's just get to some remote area to sort this out. I don't want that mob interfering."

They continued to distance themselves from the mob until, rather unexpectedly, a young woman fell onto the hood of the car. Without little emotion, Heloise said "Bernard, it appears we have another guest. You have such interesting acquaintances. Perhaps I should stay here instead of returning to France. At this rate, you'll be involved in a plot to assassinate the Prime Minister of Malaysia before long."

"I've never seen that woman before in my life" responded Bernard, his head in his hands. "This is an absolute disaster. Just drive into the little forest up ahead. It appears there's a road going in. We can hide there until this blows over, or at least until there's a police manhunt for that stupid cat."

[Quillbell]

"I've never seen that woman before in my life" responded Bernard, his head in his hands.

At this, Holly happened to glance back at him through the windshield. She waved cheerily, mouthing the words "mind letting me in?"

[Nazou]

I guess I really shouldn't have tryed to match the speed of a car... Fiore tought to himself as he saw the car getting further and further away from him. With that on mind he flew up to see further I'll just see were they are headed and make my way there on my own pace.

[Ubiquitor]

Dr. Sophismata frowned. By cruel circumstance, she would have to attend an important and impromptu faculty meeting. Seemingly, a recent occurrence has led the Headmaster to be quite vexed and, as such, willing to vent his grievances upon the entire school faculty.

She had attempted to evade this entirely by hiding in her office; however, this plan was soundly defeated by locked doors and 'misplaced keys'. Now found by colleagues and consequently swept up in the flow of teachers to the faculty meeting room, she had little hope.

As she entered the room, Dr. Sophismata groaned.

[Necrofantasia]

At this, Holly happened to glance back at him through the windshield. She waved cheerily, mouthing the words "mind letting me in?"

Considering what had transpired, it came as no surprise that when Bernard raised his head again, he saw the girl asking to get into the car. Heloise declared "Bernard, I do believe that..." "Yes, I know, Heloise. I believe your job description says 'maid,' not 'narrator.' In any event, we'll be wide open for a lawsuit if something happens to the young lady on our windshield." He sighed. "Pull over and we'll let her in."

He mouthed the words "Nous arrêterons" before catching himself and instead saying "We're going to stop the car." Heloise stopped the vehicle and Bernard motioned for the girl to get into the backseat. She piled in next to the cat and the car took off again. "Now," Bernard said "as there is a mob chasing this car and anyone inside will likely be facing discipline in connection with setting the Headmaster's hair on fire, it would probably be best if we were at least acquainted." Without looking back at his passengers, he said "My name is Bernard Moreau, soon to be Dr. Bernard Moreau. Seated to my right is my maid, Mlle. Heloise Gregoire. Now, could I please have your names? If we're fugitives, I'd at least like to know with whom I am on the lam."

[Quillbell]

"My name is Bernard Moreau, soon to be Dr. Bernard Moreau. Seated to my right is my maid, Mlle. Heloise Gregoire. Now, could I please have your names? If we're fugitives, I'd at least like to know with whom I am on the lam."

Holly's eyes twinkled. Quick as a flash she seized the young man's hand and vigorously shook it.

"Name's Holly Walker. Nice to meet ya, Bernie. Got a maid, do you?" She sized up Heloise.

"Must've cost you a pretty penny; this car too, I'll bet. Don't suppose it'll be 'Sir' Bernie to me, eh?"

[vampko]

"The name's Rin Lightfoot," Rin answered nonchalantly staring in the other direction, "there's someone flying above us?"

She was staring at the form of Fiore with a bored expression on her face. "Mom always said things were much more exciting than this..." She said under her breath, barely even a whisper.

[Nazou]

I'm starting to get tired here...how much farther do they plan on going? Of course they are going far you idiot, they are fleeing. I won't be able to keep this up for much longer. arg if only this was hapenig in a couple of months...No use thinking about it, for now figure another way to follow them.
As Fiore tought that he started to go down an landed on top of a truck that was going down the same road.
It's not nearly as fast and I'll definitly lose them soon but at least it's tall and I can rest for now. If I'm lucky we'll come across a fast cab. with that on mind he leaned back on his arms and enjoyed the wind.

[Necrofantasia]

Holly's eyes twinkled. Quick as a flash she seized the young man's hand and vigorously shook it.

"Name's Holly Walker. Nice to meet ya, Bernie. Got a maid, do you?" She sized up Heloise.

"Must've cost you a pretty penny; this car too, I'll bet. Don't suppose it'll be 'Sir' Bernie to me, eh?"

There was something odd about the girl's handshake. It was like she was trying too hard to be gregarious. Oh well. I guess there are worse things than this. Drawing his hand back, Bernard remarked "Well aren't we friendly? And that accent...Liverpool, if I'm not mistaken?"

"The name's Rin Lightfoot," Rin answered nonchalantly staring in the other direction, "there's someone flying above us?"

The cat is disappointed? Wistful? I can't tell. If nothing else, she seems to have some epicurean ideal, even a hedonistic one. Oh well.

Turning to his passengers, Bernard stated "I was originally planning to take cover in that forest over there. If someone is flying after us, that might be the best option. Are there any objections to this plan? We can return to the school once everyone is a bit less fired up."

[vampko]

"Sure, whatever," Rin still maintained her melancholy look as she said this.

[Quillbell]

Holly shrugged, neither confirming nor denying his observation.

"I'm just naturally friendly, mate." She cocked her head to the side, studying him.

"So what's your thing, then? What can you do? I know that firebug over there can light stuff up. So how 'bout you, doc? After all, we're all here for a reason."

[MizuMikomi]

Alana, still running, took a quick glance behind her and noticed the angry mob closing in on her. "W-what should I do!?" She she yelled out in fear.

She started to look around for a place where she could possibly hide from the mob, when she spotted a forest off in the distance. "Perfect!" She exclaimed as she made a mad dash forward, and dove into a bush near the front of the tree line.

[Necrofantasia]

"So what's your thing, then? What can you do? I know that firebug over there can light stuff up. So how 'bout you, doc? After all, we're all here for a reason."

"Hm? Oh, as you might have guessed, I'm a doctor in training. I can use healing and holy magic, which will come in handy if you ever get hurt, possibly from an angry mob or if the school is haunted." Bernard shrugged. "As for why I'm here overall? I have my reasons." He glanced over at Heloise. "It appears we're getting close to our destination."
