Welcome to Gaia! ::

Zhin blinked as they entered the room, his cat-like pupils adjusting to the dimmer light. Artificial light never bothered him, it was merely the sunlight. As he gazed around the room, studying each of the men, his eyes settled over the largest man, who abruptly set down his tome and walked over.

As he spoke, the same green eyes Ione had peered at him, studying him, seeking flaws in his appearance or abilities. At the mention that he was a Vampire, though, Zhin blinked again, but maintained eye contact, as he had been instructed. He didn't speak though, knowing not to speak unless directly adressed to.

[[I'll be adding you in momentarily, Beauty. I just woke up. @.@]]

Zhin answered back promptly, making sure his voice showed no emotion as he spoke. "I have only been a slave for a bit over a year now, and I've had only one previous master. He was very old, and very kind to me, but died soon after purchasing me, sir." His tone was blank, as was his face. He knew not to say anything past what he was asked.

Emerald eyes stared back into similarly emerald retinas, though Zhin's stare was much more calm and no where near inquisitive. His long silver hair, which covered his left eye at the moment, hung limply down his back, most likely demeaning his appearance. Nevertheless, cat-like pupils, now elongated by the firelight, looked on with more life than the rest of him.

[[I found that post strange...Mine, I mean. O.o]]

Avio looked at Celia with the most serious look he could muster, though his emotions said something...different. They were a mix between anger at himself at the utmost degree and hatred for the thought that he had earlier. "Some things are best left unsaid, Celia, they just are..."

Alex looked up to see the jet of water coming for him. I guess I'll try to evaporate the water. Alex thought. Holding out a hand in front of him, Alex made an extremely intense flame, so hot that it turned white. He threw the flame at the water, using pyschokinesis to control where it went. It hit it's target right on, and a sizzling noise could be heard. May as well put up a barrier, just in case. Alex quickly thought, erecting a small barrier that only protected him from an attack from the front.

Alex smirked. "I know you didn't want to spar yet. I put up the barrier in case my fire did not stop it. It was only a precautionary measure, nothing more." Alex said. Alex watched as Lazer gathered the water to his hand. It's a little different than fire, but I'll get the hang of it.

Holding his palm face-up, like Lazer did, Alex closed his eyes using the lack of visual distractions to be able to concentrate more. Alex could feel the water in the air now more clearly, using this kind of sense to expand and gather the water to himself. After about half a minute, water started to form visibly around his hand, swirling in a random motion. Alright, got the hang of locating the water, now to localize it. Using psychokinesis, Alex gathered the water he had expanded to his hand, forming a rough sphere that gradually became perfect. Alex opened his eyes, a confident smirk forming on his face. "Well, not as easy as I once thought, but it certainly was not hard." As he said this he was gathering more and more water to his hand, the sphere now in excess of two feet in diameter. In an instant Alex made the water turn into a mist, before gathering it into his palm again, and condensing it a little bit. "Well, I think I have the just of it." Alex said, as he simply released the water form his psychokinesis, allowing it to fall to the floor.

"Now, fire is a little different." Alex started, holding out his palm again. "Basically, the way I do it, is use the small dust particles in the air to create massive amounts of friction, thus creating heat and light, otherwise known as..." Alex said, the whole time going through the slow process. A small flame welled up in the palm of his hand. "...fire." Alex looked to Lazer. "It is quite easy to do, once you get a hang of it. Just remember that when you actually do build up enough friction, you have to condense it in order to make fire." Alex added, extinguishing the flame.

Lazer almost laughed. He could see the psychokinesis at work forming the water particles. "I must say, that's rather impressive for a first timer. But...My goal was for you to form water without using any other type of ability. If you can see mine form, it's rather obvious that it's purely control over the water molecules, not any sort of Psychokinesis."

Holding his hand out once again as he let the water dissipate into nothing, Lazer concentrated on the dust particles in the air, moving them with his mind as Alex had instructed. It was more difficult than he thought, creating enough friction. A few tense moments passed before he was able to pinpoint and solidify the heat, creating a small, candlelight flame in his palm. He blinked, slightly dissapointed. Nonetheless, he laughed, moving the flame into the shape of a small dragon with his Telekinesis.

(Reserved for tomorrow's post since I'm getting dragged off to bed. u.u; )

Lazer laughed lightly, letting the fire dissapear. "Well, I guess that's what training your entire life does to you, eh? Learning new things with your mind really isn't that difficult after a lifetime of training, but I still have a long way to go to master it."

Smirking as the small sphere of water formed slowly in Alex's hand, he nodded in approval, holding his palm straight out to him. In less than a second, the ball of water sped from his hand, expanding to the size of a beach ball, and then shrinking to the size of a bullet. He chuckled, letting the water flow back into it's original molecular formm. "Now I'm just showing off." He stretched, walking to a large thing that seemed to be just a rock. "Well, I haven't had a nice battle with just plain weapons in a while. How about another sparring match before dinner?" He said, smiling excitedly.

Pressing a switch, the rock's face opened to reveal a wide arsenal of hand-to-hand weapons, from daggars to spears. Taking a pair of curved knives from the bottom, he smiled, turning and walking back to the center. "Choose whatever you wish. If you're about to die, don't hesitate to use your Psychokinesis." he said with a shimmer of his eyes.
