[QUOTE="Calinon, post: 1319330, member: 13737"] OOC: Elementor, don't use that dark green, I can't read it unless I highlight it. "Thunder contacted all your families already. I'm surprised so few of you took advantage of the vid-phones in the sitting area," says Titan. "You'll have to wait until tomorrow at the earliest for that now, but not to worry, amigo's, your folks know you are fine." The bus rolls out and through the heart of New York. Despite the urge to sleep, the sights and sounds of the mega-city keep you awake, and rather wide-eyed. Eventually, you wind your way out of the city region and into a pleasantly treed area. The street lights, adhering to a no light polution policy, leave the sky amazingly star speckled on this clear night. You turn onto a side road, and a sign on each side of the drive, carved of white marble with inlaid lettering reads, "EPIC Headquarters." About a dozen feet in, a high wrought iron fence extends as far as you can see in either direction. As you clear the trees on each side of the road, you finally get your first in person view of the EPIC facility. A well lit grounds of neatly trimmed grass extends for a half mile before reaching a semi-circular building. Made of a white stone, it's of remarkably simple design, but asthetically pleasing, with windows on the front. Flags of each nation stand outside, lit from beneath by spotlights. Several flags stand at half-mast; EU, China and Russia. Australia is notably not present. The bus approaches and turns past the headquarters of EPIC, passing the west side where you see the new institution. A huge and elaborate building stands a half mile away. It is three stories high and every exterior wall is completely made of glass. Stretching off the back of the building which in your mind must be the school, are two small apartment blocks, probably the dormatories. Surrounding the school area, athletic fields, a full track facility and a rather incredible looking sunken stadium are visible. A few hundred yards on the outside of the track area, a giagantic building stands. The EPIC Jet is lowering down towards a long tarmac to the East, near the building. As the bus pulls up to the front of the school, you see Empath standing outside with several other people you don't recognize. Suddenly, red light floods through the windows as the entire area infront of the school is illuminated by fire! As you watch, a wall of flame appears well above the school, and slowly forms the words "Welcome Home!" As your eyes grow accustomed, you see a young woman flying about below the writing. She's completely wreathed in flame. In fact you don't think she's wearing clothes, not that it would matter with the flames. "Heh, showoff," quips Sanchez as she comes down the stairs. "Nova knows how to give a warm welcome," Titan quips. "Welcome to you new home! Now lets get you to your rooms, amigos." As you exit the bus, you see a truck coming from the tarmac. When it arrives, Raisa, Thunder and Grandmother emerge. [b]Raisa[/b] After talking with your mother, you join Grandmother and Thunder in the EPIC Jet and fly to the institute. As you debark the plane, you see the bus by the school, and the flames exploding into writing. A nearby truck gives the three of you transport to the rest of the students. [/QUOTE]
