The Dance

Kiyana is on James arm, smiling and looking great, and quite happy to be at the dance. She gets a picture with James, to send home to her family, and well she just enjoys herself.

Kiyana smiles to everyone else, "Sakura Red and Kelly Mitchell were great, yes? Oh I love their music, and wow look at all the decorations, and that lats song dedicated to us, was great!"

She leans close to James, and whispers to him, "I can't wait for later, the lake sounds like fun!?"

John can find several of his friends quite easily, and many of the other students outside of John and Isabelle, who are still on restriction sadly. Sakura Red spends some time signing autographs, and taking pictures with fans, she seems to bask in the glow of attention.

Cassie enjoys the dance, enjoying the music and dancing wiht Yoshi. As the duet starts, she smiles. "They sound good together don't they?" Nodding towards Sakura Red and Kelly Mitchell.

She looks around and takes in the various couples and snuggles in close to him towards the end of the dance. "This feels good." she says with a smile.
 

Ryan shrugs. "Yeah, she's pretty good." She does't really deserve the media attention and cash lavished upon her, but oh well. Life isn't fair.

"I...uh...heard there's supposed to be some kind of party after this one. You want to go that?," Ryan asks neutrally, trying his best not to reveal his thoughts about the matter.

I just don't get life sometimes. Why wasn't I picked to be on Legacy? It hardly feels worth trying now. Ryan shakes his head softly, interrupting his train of thoughts. No, I want to be on the team, I don't want to be a failure. I'm tired of always being the loser around here.

"I'm thinking of starting a kind of extracurricular club around here. I mean, McCallister's teamwork classes are all well and good, but I think experience is what really counts. If that were actually true to the school administrators, I'd be on Legacy right now! So I was thinking about maybe practicing our skills in real life situations, you know?"

"Yeah, I heard about it too...but, I don't..." Anika stops in mid-sentance and seems to none-too-subtlely mentally chastice herself. "Uh, yeah, if you want to go, sure."

"Sounds cool. What exactly did you have in mind?" she says, her interest piqued.
 

Ryan shrugs again, speaking over the din. "Well, like it or not, most of us elites generally have powers that make us good at hurting other people. Sure, you get people like the doctor UN lady who makes all kinds of stuff, but really. What percentage of elites do you think are involved in one way or another with hurting people? Elites are soldiers, in a way. And I mean, that's what Legacy does: it fights people. So I was planning on little activities that exercise our combat abilities."

I hope she doesn't think I'm some kind of psycho killer now, cause that's what it kind of sounded like. I might be able to do this while the Legacy people take extra classes. I should start with me and Cassie. I could probably convince Kelly to join, if she thought it would help her join Legacy. Kal would want in, since it would involve kicking butts. How could I convince Cassandra though? She seems a little...unusual for someone who claims to be a supersoldier from the future. Why the heck would anyone want her as a soldier?
 

Mark displays a truly amazing lack of skill on the dance floor, nearly falling over once or twice. He manages to put on a reasonable showing for the song dedicated to Legacy, though.

"Sorry, Star. I really suck at this."
 

Charlotte stays around Victor/Arafina for most of the dance, moving with her natural grace around the floor. She's mostly quiet except for commenting on the music or just random things just for fun. When the last dance starts, she takes Victor by the hands and begins to walk over to the side walls with a mischievious grin on her face, taking off her shoes. Holding her partner in a waltz-like position, she takes the lead and they dance up the wall and soon find themselves upside down on the ceiling.

"I think tonight has been the best night in my life so far." She whispers as the dance ends.
 

Cassie

Yoshi smiles, “Yeah it isn’t half bad, those girls have a nice set of lungs on them. Especially that Sakura,” he turns back to Cassie, “Yeah it does feel good,” he grins, “But tonight is going to be better.”

He leads her over to James and Kiyana, “Hey so you’re joining us tonight right? I got plenty of stuff to go around, just trying to get a good idea of who will show up, you know only the cool people.”

Mark

Star smiles, “Don’t worry I can compensate for you, your better then I expected, given what you told me. This is fun, and very interesting. For someone with such speed, you really do have much to learn about rhythm.”


“Oh I wouldn’t say that,” a soft voice says from behind Mark, Sakura Red stands behind the speedy elite. She smiles, “Hey Mark, I just wanted to say hello personally, from what I hear about you, you’re an amazing guy.”

She offers her hand to Mark.

Charlotte

Victor does not miss a beat, “Interesting, although I would think that more conventional dancing would be lady like, this is much more fun. Not what I had envisioned for myself, but interesting nonetheless.”

Victor lets her lead, and enjoys the moment.
 

Kelly sighs when Sakura dedicates the last song to Mark and Legacy, it really hammered home that she wasn't a part of the group, that she hadn't even made any friends here at the school, she had been so busy preparing for the show. And just as she thought they would, all the guys were paying attention to Sakura and not herself. She could certainly see why, but it didn't stop her from being jealous of the older pop-star. Its not fair, everyone's looking at her, paying attention to HER, and I can't even get on some stupid super-hero team, she thinks, putting on a sad smile as she watches Sakura finish her song.

She floats herself back to one of the chairs set up by the stage and simply sits, watching everyone enjoying themselves, dancing with their dates, having fun, wishing that she was out there with someone, looking up at the stage, watching Sakura perform, that she was part of JE: Legacy.

"That's not a bad idea. Funny, though, isn't it? You're right, most elites' powers have such destructive capabilities. Makes you wonder if we're not here to fight some sort of war after all..." Anika says, her voice trailing off. She shakes her head. "But I guess it's all in how you use it, right? Kinda like how you healed all those poeple at the mall, that was pretty awesome. It felt all tingly..." she says with a chuckle.
