Welcome to Gaia! ::

Kaija McArthur/ Pyra's room

Pyra's room has a metal twin size bed in the middle of the far wall of the room. A window sits just above the head board and extends to the entire bed width. A metal bookshelf sits to the right of the bed and a stone floor lamp sit's on it's right. The walls right now are bare and will remain bare until she acquires decor for them
She has black sheets, and blanket with Grey pillow cases. These of course are made of anti-flammable materials.
The shelves are also bare at this time...

To the right of Kaija's bed is a door that leads to her bathroom which is also plain. With a white toilet, white sink and bathtub with a shower. The shower curtain is a plain dark blue until such time where she is able to decorate the bathroom to fit her tastes

Dea's Room:

Pyra took a quick shower and slid into her pjs. They consisted of black pants with flames woven through out the fabric and a black t-shirt. She slid on her gloves too, afraid to accidentally touch anything without them.

She went to her bed and sat on the edge, by her foot board for a while reading the information in the binder. She didn't understand it all but she took guesses.

After some time of just laying on the bed, staring at the ceiling, Pyra managed to fall asleep.

It was dark outside, on the streets. She didn't know where she was but she knew where she wasn't. She wasn't at the Institute.

There were sirens, blaring in the background, a familiar fire burned in the distance. Feet pounded on the slippery, wet pavement. It had been raining, but the rain had long stopped. She could hear the water running into a nearby street drain.

Somehow, she knew that the fire in the distance was caused by her. There would be people out for her again. But the building on fire was very large. It wasn't one that she had burned before. The lights on the street were also not familiar.

The sirens continued to blare, firefighters, ambulances, police men.

Voice shouted, "There it is! Get it!"

Footsteps ran towards her. That's all she was to these humans. They didn't know what she was, they just knew she wasn't human. To them she was an it or a monster. But they wouldn't dare say that again.

"It was your last chance, Kaija," a familiar voice said. The voice bleonged to none other than Logan. "You ruined it, you destroyed everyone's hope!"

"You have done the same that you did to me," another voice said. "My little flame...how could you."

The voices, sad and angry continued. The scene changed and she was running down an alley, faces of everyone that she hurt and everyone appeared and forced her to veer from her original path. She kept running and running.

It began to rain again, but it felt so real. The voices and pictures of the past continued, faster and faster. Blaming her, laughing, giving her all the reasons to harm them again.

"Leave me alone," she shouted and sat straight up in her bed. Her breathing was harsh as her eyes, filled with flame glanced around the dark room. She sat, stunned, scared and wet. The spirnkler system was going off and more voices came from outside her door.
Students were shouting about the sprinklers.

Pyra woke up with Logan's shouting. Her breathing was rough and her eyes darted around the room, fear was written in her eyes. Her flames were out with the help of the sprinklers and the girl was soaked.

She swallowed a few times and tried to slow her breathing as her eyes rested on Logan. Kids were shouting about the water, some seemed to enjoy it. Footsteps ran down the hall.

Pyra closed her eyes and her breathing started to slow down to a less panicked pace. She looked at the black mark on the wall from her flames and hung her head. She didn't know what to say right now, and she didn't know what to do. It all seemed so real...

Pyra stared at Logan for a moment until she was sure that she could speak without fear.

"I...I thought it was real," she mumbled confused. "It felt real...I-I guess I was..."

She paused and glanced back at the dark spot on the wall. She sighed. "I'm sorry, please don't kick me out," she begged, worried that she would be. After all, had she not woken up things could have been a lot worse.

She jumped out of her dampened bed, and slipped on the puddle of water that was on her floor from the sprinklers.
"Whoa," she exclaimed
On her way down, she grabbed the blanket from her bed and pulled it under her, in case the floor wasn't fire proof, and she knelt with her hands on the blanket, staring at Logan's feet. Feeling slightly embarrassed.

Pyra looked up at Logan and nodded. The punishment was expected if nothing else. It was only right. She picked herself up slowly from the puddle so that she wouldn't slip again. Not that she already wasn't soaked. She felt weak, but that's what water did to her.

"I'm sorry," she half whispered glancing back at the tainted wall. She didn't want to ruin her chances at living, and so far, she had been doing a really good job at it. More than anything, she was angry with herself for not waking up on her own. She was angry with herself for loosing control in her sleep and wondered if it ever happened before.

She began to walk to the door and away from the sprinklers, the bear that Logan had given her earlier was in her arms and hugged close to her left side. She decided that she would move her bed, away from the water sprinklers and away from the walls.

"Is everything alright?" Logan asked.

"Try and sleep Kaija. We will work on cleaning it in the morning," he then looked at his watch, "Damn it's nearly 5am."
