Yet another boring day, it had been that for quite a while now, the bullies had calmed down, the pracsters stopped doing pranks, god knows for what reason, thoguh Adam had an idea who it might be. Recently a new fashion trend had arised between the students, magical tattooes, very useful, but Adam was clever enough to not get one of those, especially not with a guy like Aldrich around. And true enough, many people had been caught by the him for abusing those magical tattooes.
Adam walked down the stairs in his blue jeans, and losely hanging white T-shirt, with each step he wondered how he should make the time go away, he wanted something fun to happen, not just having to walk around being bored as he were now.

That old and should just vanish.Because of his coplaints Jinx had to come all the way back to that school.She made her spets fast as she passed by the studenst,not really looking where she was going.She had quickly dressed herself in simple black dress and black boots before getting in her way there.She needed to make it fast,she had work to do.
As she kept going she accidentally bumped lightly in someone. "Oh,I'm sorry." She said before looking at the boy.

Adam felt something bumping into him, and then a female voice, saying something about her being sorry, Adam didn´t really mind, it had only been a light hit, not anything serious, if he had fell down the stairs, he would have understood it, but a light bump like that, there was no reason to excuse that.
"No problem." Adam said, as he smiled a polite smile, this woman obviously wasn´t a teacher, and she wasn´t a student either. "So, why are you in such a hurry?" Adam asked, keeping his eyes on the woman, as if trying to make her stay for a little chit-chatting.
The woman was wearing a well, actually pretty nice looking black dress, which really fit her well, though to Adam, she looked like one of those Goths he had heard so much about, people that only wore black, and she certainly looked like that. In his mind, he began to think of reasons to why she would be there, a person which no ties to the school, or had she? Adam decided to ask. "Is it because of those magical tattoos?" Adam looked curiously at her.

Jinx shifted her weigh from a foot to the other as she looked at the boy while replying his smile with one of her own.He was maybe three years younger than her,which meant that he was in his way to finish school.
Straightforward. She thought after hearing his questions.She closed her eyes for a moment and sighed, then rubbed the back of her neck and oppened them again. "Guess ya could say that." She replied with a roll of her eyes at the memory of the 'visit' of the old professor.That disrespectful bastard had destroyed her day but yet,here she was,to sort everything with the Headmistress.

"Guess ya could say that."
"I See, let me guess... you’re the one making them?" It was quite obvious actually, who else would they call in, there was no reason for it to be anyone else, especially if what the rumors was true, that they had used Professor Abendroth as the one leading the investigation of it, he would go directly for the root, instead of the leafs.
"I don´t really understand what their problem are? It´s not like they harm anyone." Adam said, as he looked around, just to make sure professor Abendroth wasn´t anywhere near them, he had a tendency to be like a ninja, going in the shadows. “I was clever enough to not get one, you know, the potion professor is totally crazy about it, I will bet he would have cut our guts out, if he was allowed to.” Adam said, not really knowing why he said that, he just felt like speaking today. “… Oh sorry, seems like I just keeps babbling about things.” He smiled slightly, and hoped the woman wouldn´t mind, he could use someone to talk to, of course he had Claire, but still, it was always good to get more friends, especially when you had people like professor Abendroth going around, lurking in all the dark corners, only waiting for a reason to strike.

"I See, let me guess... you’re the one making them?"
"Yes,that's me." Maria replied with a nod from her head.She was the one paying the price for the students choices,though in their place she'd do the same.Specially with the old bastard around.
"I don´t really understand what their problem are? It´s not like they harm anyone."
“I was clever enough to not get one, you know, the potion professor is totally crazy about it, I will bet he would have cut our guts out, if he was allowed to.”
That's it! Now she remebered.The old freak had been her potions professor.His class was a rather boring one.She always had the urge to sleep during the class.She deserved a medal for fighting that urge.Then her thoughs were interrupted by the sound of the boy's voice.
“… Oh sorry, seems like I just keeps babbling about things.”
"No problem." She said with a smile. "Well, they are no harm.Most of them were made for protection and nothing more.But it seems that the students have been misusing them, and I'm paying the price.Like if I was the one to blame.They want me to put restrictions to the kind of tatoo the students can get." Maria sighed and again shifted her weigh. "Someone should teach that old freak a lesson about respect and manners.If there was anyone at my parlor when he arrived there he'd have scared them." She rolled her eyes, for a professor the old bastard had very little manners. "Went as far as calling the students 'animals'..." She muttered the last part.

"Oh, sounds harsh, especially when it is Abendroth you have to deal with." Adam said, smiling a devious smile, he had had his fair share of angry Abendroth. "I know how it is; he has set his eyes on me for some reason... Just because he keeps spilling his potions around me." Adam said, as if he was complaining about the professor, a thing which he probably also were.
"Went as far as calling the students 'animals'..."
"Well... Considering that it is Him that said that, I would take it as a good thing, I have heard that he tried to use some of his students as bait to catch a rare meat eating plant.” Adam whispered slightly, as if he expected Abendroth to com at the mere mentioning of his name, of course he didn´t, but who knew, he could be anywhere, and with that MAGE of his, hiding things was impossible especially the truth.
“But well… Considering how the students behave, there might be a reason to how he views us.” Adam said, as if he was thinking. “Oh… Sorry about that did it again… My name is Adam, and what do people call you?” Adam asked, trying to change subject, since it wasn´t very pleasant to talk about the professor who always were out to get him.

"Well... Considering that it is Him that said that, I would take it as a good thing, I have heard that he tried to use some of his students as bait to catch a rare meat eating plant.”
"Of course because he is so old and rottened that not even the plant would try eating him." Maria muttered to herself with a roll of her eyes. Disrespectful,stupid and selfish bastard. That was what that old professor was.
“Oh… Sorry about that did it again… My name is Adam, and what do people call you?”
At this she shot him a smile as she shook her head.
"I'm Jinx.Nice meeting you Adam." She replied.

"It is a pleasure to meet you to, Jinx." Adam said, as he smiled a friendly smile, it seemed that they were going to become friends, since they had a common enemy, the professor, the mosnter that had been allowed to become a teacher here for some reason.
As ussual he had a rumor ready, he had heard about this Jinx, not only because she was the one giving people magical tattooes, but also because she had been a student here, there tended to always be rumors about people from older generations, especially older students, it was like a tradition for the younger students to make rumors about the old ones, of course not all were true, most were but not all. "So... Jinx, have you been a student here?" Adam asked, sounding curios for some reason.

Jinx smiled at him before answering his question. "Yes, I have.Not long ago." She said looking around, she could remember herself running around all the corridors and stairs as she tried to arrive at classes on time.What always seemed to be futile.She was almost always late.She then realised that the students used to spread rumors about the olders sudents.Jinx herself used to do that. What would they have spread about her? Nevermind. She then turned her gaze back to him. "Finished just a little over 2 years ago."

"Ah... I see... that is pretty recent isn´t it." Adam said, as he tried to think of something to say, she looked like a nice polite woman, even though she did wear black clothes, not that he minded. "So, what is your MAGE?" Adam didn´t know that Creating magical tattoos could be a MAGE, to him, you just made a tattoo, and put a charm on it, that´s how easy it would be.
Adam awaited her answer patiently, being a hydrokinetic had its advantages, he did posses the calmness of the sea, plus all the other aspects to, it was like he was the manifestation of the sea, calm yet fully capable of unleashing a furry stronger and more dangerous than most normal wizards, of course depending on age, and experience.

Jinx was,somehow, surprised upon hearing his question.She thought he'd at least suppose what it was.Oh,well,seemed that she was wrong. "Yes,recent enough for me to still have problems with professors." She said jokingly,though her ex-professor visit was anything but funny.
"My mage is actually the ability to create enchanted tatoos.Did you think that I only put a spell on them?" She asked him still with a smile.If that was the case anyone would have done it before,wouldn't them?

"Yes,recent enough for me to still have problems with professors."
"yeah." Adam said snickered slightly it was fun to talk to Jinx, she wasn´t like the other adults, she was different, in a good way of course, but still different, and that was good.
"My mage is actually the ability to create enchanted tatoos.Did you think that I only put a spell on them?"
"Well, yeah I actually had... But that´s a pretty nice MAGE you got, and very useful." Adam said, as he seemed to look at her differently, like a new spark of awe had been shot into his eyes, of course he was thinking about potential, her MAGE had very big potential, and if used to boost his own, who knew what that could do? A little smile were on his lips, simply because he was happy.

Now,what was that...
No!You are being paranoid.
But that spark...
There was no such thing.
Jinx was sure she had seen something.A saprk.She never like sparks.But a part of her mind keept telling her that there was no such thing.The boy was, indeed,a good to talk too.She was being paranoid.So she thought it better to forget that.
"Well,if it was just that someone would've had that idea before me.Now,what would be your mage?"Jinx was quite curious about his mage,she heard that there were many new kinds of mages appearing,and probably this would go on for a long time.No one ssemed to have a idea of when this would end.Jinx couldn't help but to think: What if it never ended?

"Well,if it was just that someone would've had that idea before me. Now, what would be your mage?"
Adam smiled slightly. “Well, I will show you.” Adam looked up onto the ceiling; he could feel the water pipes running through the place, so it was no problem for him to do what he was going to do. He moved his arm up towards the ceiling, as if trying to grab it. And then, the pipes broke, shattering the ceiling, and letting the water flow down onto them, of course he didn´t let it hit them, it just splashed out around them. “They call it Hydrokinesis, the power of total liquid control.” Adam said, smiling even more, he then moved his hand up slightly, more, and the water began to run and fly back into the pipes.
His hand fell loosely down, as if going numb, this much water was using allot of energy, very fast. He took his wand with the other arm and pointed it towards the place he had shattered. “Reparo!” Adam then said, making the ceiling mend itself, every stone flying back into their places, it was actually quite a sight.
When the job was done, he put his wand back into the pocket he always kept it in. His breathing had gotten a little heavier as if he had just been out running; it was nothing serious, just feeling the effects of his own MAGE.

“Well, I will show you.”
Jinx was curious,her eyes folowed gaze to the ceiling but since she saw nothing she looked back to him.When he raised his arm in the same direction she folowed it,looking again at the ceiling,this time moving her head too.Once she saw the ceiling shatter and the water coming on their directions she,on instinct,raised her right arm above her head,the tattoo on the back of her foreamr would create a protective shield if it was needed,but it wasn't.Once she saw the water's course change and it splash around them she let her arm fall,looking away from the water once she heard his voice.
“They call it Hydrokinesis, the power of total liquid control.”
"Cool".Was all Jinx muttered in responce before seeing the water going back to the pipes.After that he used 'Reparo' on the ceiling and it was all back to it's place.He seemed tired,she knew that some would get tired after using their mages and she was thankfull she wasn't on that list.
"You know,I could have fixed it.You seem pretty exausted.This must be really tiring."

"You know,I could have fixed it.You seem pretty exausted.This must be really tiring."
"Yeah, it really is tiring, the larger amount of liquid, the harder it is, of course it doesn´t help much, when there keeps being more water to catch." Adam smiled, well he had been able to do it, and that was what mattered, if he became tired of it, then it was because of his own weakness, and that would mean more training was needed.
“But don´t think about it, I have gotten used to it, I normally never need to control that much water, so I can normally keep it up for longer.” Adam explained, at least she seemed to show some interest, some people took their MAGES for Granted, Adam certainly didn´t, he knew only through hard work he would gain mastery over his MAGE, no magic could give him what experience could.
A bell begun to ring, it seemed they had been talking to the end of a class hour, which meant the entrance would soon be filled with students on their merry way to get some food. Of course Adam wasn´t going to go with those student, he wasn´t really that much of a person who could eat with others, he preferred to wait. “Want to get going? This place is going to be run down by other people soon.” Adam said, looking at Jinx while waiting her response.

"Yeah, it really is tiring, the larger amount of liquid, the harder it is, of course it doesn´t help much, when there keeps being more water to catch."
"Yeah,makes sence." Was all Jinx could mutter in responce for she was,once again, in her own thoughs.He had pretty much power to deal with,yet it caused quite a damage for him too. 'A two sided blade.' She thought to herself,while damaging a oponent it was also pretty tiring for him.
“But don´t think about it, I have gotten used to it, I normally never need to control that much water, so I can normally keep it up for longer.”
"Even if you've got used to it,it still may be quite troblesome." Jinx's statement was cut short for the loud bell ring.Her instant reaction was closing her eyes quickly as the muscles of her shoulders and arms tensed for a moment at the loud sound, then re-opening her eyes and rolling them.The sound was,just as she remebered, annoying.
“Want to get going? This place is going to be run down by other people soon.”
"The best thing to do I guess.Crowds are not really my thing." She said looking around.
