Cassie looks down at her hand, and the patch in it.

Long seconds pass as she looks at it, unblinkingly. "I know what I was supposed to be...."

Looks over at Yoshi. "Do you think.. you and the others could help me find something better?"

Tears glistening in her eyes.

"No need to be melodramatic Cassie, before we knew that you were a good person, I think you have already shown that you are going to be something better, cool the tears, you won't be some killing machine, your Cassandra Prophet, a good person, with a good heart. If anything, your willingness to help with those dinos and then those terrorists is good enough for me," Yoshi replies, patting her shoulder.

"I'm sorry Yoshi, it's.. just a shock to learn you're not going to ever meet your mother and father.." sighs. "You're right though.. I'm not like them." smiles calmly. "Now, we've got to figure who to tell what we experienced adn more importaly.. how we can prove it."

Anika, First Appearance Generation Legacy Issue #3

6 hours earlier on an Aerodyne overlooking the Mediterranean Sea

The soft hum of the engines was soothing after the past few days for Anika, first being transplanted from her home, to Barcelona, and then finding out that she was to be moved again in such short time to Mudaba Adin, for more intense training, was a little unsettling. Especially many of her instructors seemed to be taken aback at how her powers had manifested, and what she could do, she an oddity among oddities, a somewhat liberating if strange emotion.

The rest of the passengers were no doubt baselines, and the in-flight movie was some strange artsy film, from France written by a brilliant baseline director, of course it made little sense and didn’t catch much interest. On her right, was her fellow passenger an old man who was busy snoring away on the flight, a businessman from Great Britain, who smelled of cigars.

She looked back out the window, and could see the waters speed along quickly, several tens of thousand feet below, the blue sky reflected in the afternoon light. It was at least peaceful.

At the present time, Anika’s new room

The trip from the aerodyne port was quiet, Mr. Kincaid, an elite by his own admission of Egyptian descent had picked her up, and given her a tour of Mudaba Adin, eventually arriving at the Institute, which was located within a nature preserve, and had a more rural quality as opposed to the more urban Institute in Barcelona. But her room was pretty much like the one in Barcelona, spacious, with a bathroom, a computer terminal, a bed, desk, a closet, and quite bare at the moment. But she already had a message on her computer… An image of Tommy McKain pops up on her screen and smiles to her and begins to speak.

Anika,

Hey glad to see you made it, it is me Tommy, heard you were coming down here, glad you could make it, this place is cool, I have a lot of friends here, I can show you around. Well unpack, I included some rudimentary info about the place, a layout, and well just a friendly hello!

The image fades leaving behind several files about the school, and the students, and the region around the school. Thankfully this would be a fresh start, and a chance to perhaps explore just what she could do. And if anything, all the other students here just like in Barcelona all had powers they were only beginning to understand…

 

[Agamon]

Anika reads the message left by Tommy. "Tommy...yeah, I remember him, the computer kid. How did he know I was...right, the computer kid," she thinks, looking blankly at the screen. Her brow furls slightly. I wonder what other information he's privy to..."

She clicks a few of the files, scanning them for anything she might find interesting. One folder contains a video file of the recent disruption at a local mall. "Yeah, I remember that. A half-hour speech on 'this is how the students of the Barcelona Institute don't behave in public' followed by lessons on what to do if we're attacked in public. I'll have to thank them for that." she thinks as she smirks.

The other file in the folder is a personal account from Tommy of something that happened in the local reserve, but didn't make the news. As she reads it, her eyes grow wider and wider. "Dinosaurs? Elite terrorists? What exactly am I being signed up for...?"

Anika rises from the computer and decides to go have a look around the campus.

Back at Cassie's room...

Yoshi nods, "I think I understand, but you can't worry about that now, what can you worry about is how we are going to make anyone beleive what just happened, and definitely warn Ryan... maybe we should go talk to him," he walsk to the door, as it opens, and glances into the hallway, spotting Anika walking down the hallway...

Whoa... another hot chick... and blonde to boot... man Yoshi some days it is good to be an elite! Yoshi thinks to himself as he smirks, "Hey you new around here, I didn't know we were getting another student, the name is Yoshi," he points to inside the room, "and this is my friend Cassie, welcome to the Institute."

Yoshi steps out into the hall and folds his arms and leans against the wall, he is a slim Japanese youth with dyed blonde hair, and a red bandanna around his spiky hair. He is wearing loose jeans, with white tennis shoes, and a blue shirt with some anime babe, leaning on a hot car... he grins.

Anika stops and smiles at the greeting. She wears her shoulder-length hair loose. She's dressed in a loose blue t-shirt and kahkis. "Hi. My name's Anika." she says with a strange accent, nodding to the two students. Yeah, I'm new here. I just came in from the Barcelona Institute. I'm not too sure why. They tell me to jump on an aerodyne, and I say 'Where to?'" She half-smiles, feeling a bit self-conscious

 

[Samnell]

Mark notices Ryan and James. "I'll take to you later, ok Tommy? Thanks. Cool Robot." He makes his escape.

"So what's the deal, guys?"

"Nice to meet you, Anika." smiles calmly as she tucks a bit of cloth into her pocket. "Yoshi.. why don't you show her around why I go talk about what..we saw." goes in search of a teacher that she knows will listen.

In the Hallway outside Cassie's Room

Yoshi nods, "Well I think we should go together Cassie, two people seeing the same things, they may beleive us much easier then one, besides," he places a hand on Cassie's shoulder, "we sort of need to think how we are going to explain all that."

Yoshi turned to Anika, "Sorry bout that, we kind of just had a next-level experience, like way next-level... saw some cool stuff, but I still have to wonder how it all happened, you know?"

Yoshi chuckles, "Man I sound all surreal, it is a long story, you might as well get used to it, strange stuff tends to happen around here."
