Lake Ananke

Named for the ancient Greek goddess of inevitability, this lake holds deep secrets below its placid exterior. Like the cove, its ancient properties limit the use of abilities.

Be careful.

@L.Joe Feeling bored, Chanhee decided to walk over to the purple haired stranger. He hummed a small tune as he walked over, smiling. The skies were clear and the water smooth- he was in a good mood and the stranger seemed like he was a cheerful person too.

He looked up above, eyes reflecting the stars above, stealing their twinkle. His head lolled about and he laughed out loud cheerfully. He smiled brightly at the other boy, jumping up happily and waving enthusiastically.

Running the rest of the distance, he plopped down near the boy, tumbling down a bit, still laughing exuberantly. He wasn't cold and water was clear and the grass tickled his fingers pleasantly.


Chanhee was happy.

Tired and bored, Kaeun wandered past the school borders and somehow found her way to Lake Ananke. She walked slowly into the water, enjoying the cool feeling of it. Thinking of nothing in particular, Kaeun kept walking in until the water was up to her thighs. Kaeun sat down so that the water was up to her neck. She was alone and she was glad- It was calming here, away from all the other students who would constantly buzz around like annoying flies.

Here, Kaeun was at peace and was able to think without being interrupted. There wasn't much to think about, but it was nice to be able to here the voice inside of her head. The water rippled when Kaeun gently pushed at it, making a small bird nearby fly away. Even animals didn't seem to want to be around Kaeun.

@L.Joe Chanhee shivered, the cold winds blowing straight through his thin shirt. His fingers moved slowly, much to his consternation. Shrugging it off, he looked over to the purple haired boy- what was he doing? He looked so awkward with his purple hair sticking up and his expression uneasy. Chanhee chuckled- oops, that was louder than he had intended-

But a particularly strong breeze blew through, sending the water, which was oh-so calm and peaceful, to lapse into ripples. The surface no longer reflected the peaceful night sky; now it only reflected a twisted and distorted mock of the beautiful skies. It sneered at him, mocked him. Glaring at the surface, he huffed and- oh, the way his breath crystallized in the air was so pretty.

He coughed and cleared his throat, the cold finally getting to him.

@Chunji Byunghun withdrew his hand, his smile slipping off his face. He scratched the back of his head awkwardly. Idiot. What kind of idiot would wave to a random stranger? The stranger probably thought he was some kind of freak now. Especially considering his purple hair. Why had he dyed it purple, of all colors, in the first place? He wasn't a girl. Maybe because he was a freak, and that was what freaks did.

That was right. He was a freak. He would never fit in. Byunghun was sure, so sure, that everyone could see the secrets and the guilt he hid. That was why they avoided him. That was why this one stranger had a sour expression on his face.

Byunghun needed to strengthen his mask.

[[LOL WHAT IS THIS. L.Joe's easy for me to write for cuz he's screwed up like I am. o/]]

@L.Joe Movement caught Chanhee's attention. He saw movement from his peripherals, and he turned towards it curiously. There was a stranger, waving cheerfully and smiling. He shrugged at the other boy, hugged his knees to his chest and waved meekly, looking back at the sky. He hummed to himself, feeling the wind blow gently around him.

Wait- why was this guy waving at him? His expression soured as he ran all possibilities of why this guy-

He smiled up at the stars.
L.Joe [A] 11 years ago
@Chunji Byunghun wasn't sure why his feet had taken him to the lake, of all places. As a child of flame, an Ignis student, it seemed counterintuitive that he felt secure in the presence of the very element that could quench his flames. 

He dipped his unnaturally warm hands into the water, relishing the iciness that soaked him to the bone. Maybe that was exactly what he liked about water. It could quench his flames. Flames of destruction, murder, and death. Because, and the end of the day, he was always afraid of himself.

The earth was solid beneath his feet, the wind comforting. He breathed in, taking in the scents of nature around him. All the elements had a gentle side, all but fire. Fire existed only to destroy.

Byunghun sighed, looking across the lake. Apparently, he wasn't alone. Putting on his best "cheerful" face, he waved at the stranger.

Chanhee walked around the deep lake, slowly, leisurely, as if he had all the time in the world. At random times, he would bend down and skim his fingers across the smooth surface, watching the ripples disrupt the perfect mirror of the sky. He touched his icy hands to his cheek, relishing the shock of hot and cold. Trees reached out to him, whispering in the wind. The leaves shook and he sighed, a small puff of white appearing in front of him before quickly disappearing.

He stood still after making his third round around the lake, turning to face the sky. It was a cloudless night, stars bright and moon luminescent. He looked around him, where shafts of moonlight struck the floor, bathing it in vanilla twilight. He stood knee-deep in thought, thoughts of color and nothingness. Looking up at the sky again, he raised his hand and stuck out his thumb. He closed one eye slowly and reached out as if to grab the small, white orb. After a few seconds of futile grasping, he fell down upon the ground, landing in a ray of pure moonlight.

His eyes twinkled like the stars above as he looked and looked. A small, wispy cloud covered the star Chanhee was observing and his face fell, the stars in his eyes instantly disappearing. His eyes clouded over with melancholy longing and he waited, in his own little ray of moonlight for the cloud to pass and the stars to shine once more.

@Yeo Jin Goo She raised an eyebrow at his sarcasm, he really didn't need to tell her to do so. She would have voluntarily. She wasn't offended by his words though, why should she be? He was but a stranger that happened to walk by as she fallen and helped her, she was slightly grateful but nothing more. He
He obviously didn't want her help anyways, she was about to retort back when he collapsed onto the ground in a heap. She looked around not sure if she was to help in or just walk away, but in her nature, she helped people. Her attitude didn't make it seem like she would but she did, plus this would pay back her debt wouldn't it?
She sighed exasperated and walked toward him, noticing the heat he emitted and realized he was burning up, most likely the cause of his fainting. She cursed at the fact that she was here of all places, unable to teleport with ease.

Struggling at first, she pulled the boy on to her back with difficulty in the direction that she'd followed previously to what was the infirmiry prayng she wouldn't get lost.
Yeo Jin Goo 11 years ago
@Seohyun Jin Goo take a glance at the girl - ignoring her words as he still busy clean up the blood . " Just stay away from me . " He said sarcastically without looking at the girl . " That'll make me stop bleeding . " He said again . His body start to feel weaker . He already catch a fever . As he 's starting to walk away , he 's fainted on the ground .
Seohyun 11 years ago
@Yeo Jin Goo Seohyun ran a hand through her hair pushing it out of her face, looking at the boy, who probably saved her from drowning, skeptically. Where were her non-existent manners, non-existent of course. Was she really going to leave it at that though? She was, admitting, in debt, considering she could have drowned f not for him. She swallowed as the heavy silence draped itself around the two of them, heavier than the water than pulled her down moments ago.
"....You're not going to stop the bleeding like that"
Yeo Jin Goo 11 years ago
@Seohyun "Aishh . " Jingoo whined as he wipe his blood . Then , he widen his eyes as the girl woke up - the blood keep running . Jingoo immediately move far from the girl - wiping his blood with his handkerchief .
Seohyun 11 years ago
@Yeo Jin Goo She'd been underwater for how long, she wasn't sure. All Seohyun knew was the surface wasn't anywhere near her and she struggled in the water. She could swim, but just barely. This time, being caught by surprise, didn't help her lack of ability to swim. She squinted in the water as a figure approached her but her mind was fuzzy as the lack of oxygen was affecting her.

Her eyes didn't open again until she felt a solidness of the earth underneath her, she didn't think she'd ever be grateful for until now. Not sure how she got back out of the water without her knowledge. She felt a warm drop of liquid hit her arm as her vision cleared to see a figure in front of her. She immediately sat up alarmed but then realized that the warm liquid that had dripped on her arm was the blood that dripped onto her arm, she blinked in confusion as she stared at the boy
Yeo Jin Goo 11 years ago
@Seohyun Jin Goo widen his eyes as he saw the girl drown in the lake . He looked around . There is no one there . " How am I going to help when Icouldn't even help myself ? " He said to himself . Seeing how the vanish from his sight , Jin Goo take the next step by dive into the lake to save ther girl . He try to hold the pain he had as he bring her to the ground . As they reached on the ground , his nose start to bleed and his body temperature become higher .
Seohyun 11 years ago
@Yeo Jin Goo The lake was still, with a few moments where wind blew past. The low sun of the late afternoon shone on the lake making it glisten as Seohyun calmly but curiously walked along the rocks that rose just above the surface of the lake. An activity she would dare in front of others, she did alone. Looking at the lake below her, she wondered just what made the lake what it was. Why it reduced her to nothing but a simple person once again. She sang a simple song she once learned feeling more carefree than she often seemed to be.

Lost in her thoughts, not seeing where she took her next step. All in a quick instant the air around her felt heavy and pressured. Maybe because it wasn't air.
Yeo Jin Goo 11 years ago
@Seohyun Jin Goo went closer to he lake - slipping his hands inside his pocket with his calm look . He's smiling abit when he's look at the calm lake . He look up - widen his eyes as he found a girl there . He's start sweating ad hearbeat beats fast unlike normal . Then , he start to move far from the girl .

[ lol , yu're better than me ]
Seohyun 11 years ago
Seohyun neared the Lake wondering why she had found the place earlier. Of course she heard that, like the cove, she was rendered helpless here without her powers, but she could help it. She didn't like staying in her room like a grounded child and she wasn't the most social person in the world. Scratch that...by choice or not she wasn't social period. Not that she could help it, you couldn't change what you lived to be for 9 years after a simple "heartfelt" talk, if that's what it was to be called.
The wind blew by, rimming the water next to her. He'd been right, she thought. Of all the elements it seemed that water and wind went together the best...if any element were to get along. Of course being near a different element didn't make her comfortable most of the time, it didn't really matter since no power worked here anyways. The only hope was that she wouldn't get lost again, as always.

Victoria sighed as she moved over to the lake, and took her position to start her practices. Taking a deep breath she closed her eyes as she swayed her hands at certain angles and ways as she moved the water into the air
Ka-eun [Semi-Hiatus ~June] 11 years ago
After sitting on the land for a long while, Kaeun finally got up, knowing she had to go back to her sector. Soon, Kaeun was walking steadily out of the area and in the direction of her sector
Ka-eun [Semi-Hiatus ~June] 11 years ago
Only after Kaeun dragged herself out of the lake did she hear quiet movement. She turned to see that a few feet away there was a stranger sitting with her feet in the water. Kaeun looked at the siloutlette for a moment but turned away again and sat on the land.
Ka-eun [Semi-Hiatus ~June] 11 years ago
Tired and alone, Kaeun swished her hands around the water and kicked lightly with her feet. The water felt as light as air. Kaeun watched the sun as it set and woke up from the sleep she fell into to watch the sun rise.
Ka-eun [Semi-Hiatus ~June] 11 years ago
Walking silently without an expression, Kaeun quietly walked into the lake. She stopped when the water got to her knees and sat down. She sat there but her mind was somewhere else, not realizing where she was until a crow cried out loudly and a small wave hit her. Still, Kaeun just sat there
