Home of the local screw up! (Open.)

[Roy Atenwood]

((OOC:This is open, but I'd like Tech and Vrac to post first.))

Roy walked into his dorm, a sparse room with several small freezers in it. A few devices were already set up. as Roy had Tech helping him with what he was going to do.

He was going to summon a Water Elemental. One of those would help ensure his flames never got out of control, and they were said to be kind, and understanding creatures back where he came from. Hell, he had even had a short, but serious, relationship with one, but that's another story.

He drew the magic circle, according to the book he had copied the spell from, as his friend Tech set up devices to help focus mana, and other such things.

"I'm going to start the spell in a moment. I've got to eat something first, though. You want some ice cream, Tech?"

[Brandon (Tech)]

"Yeah, that'd be nice" Tech had spent the past few days flicking together objects that he figured would help channel Roy's elemental energies. "You know what the good thing about being me is? I don't get a brainfreeze." He joked. The devices were allmost ready, he just needed to fine tune the remaing components and then channel his own energy to power them.
"I'm pretty much ready here, how about you?"

[Vrac Dudall]

"None for me, please."

This had been a strange night. First Vrac ran into these guys as they litter picked around his coffin in the lower academy. Then it all became a bit unstable but for some reason he was now sitting in here watching these two mechanical freaks run around and decorate the entire place with junk as if it was some big christmas tree.

"Just tell me again: Why did you invite me here?"

[Roy Atenwood]

"Yeah, I'm about ready....and Vrac, your here to bail us out if this thing goes nuts. Elementals still have humanoid bodies, and they can be killed. Remember how much I'm paying you, too."

Roy knew most vampires diddn't care about money, but he wasn't paying with money. He was paying with his dad's old Rapier. He couldn't use the thing, but Vrac most likely could. He had only told Vrac that there was something in it for him, though.

Roy walked over near the magic circle, and set a large bowl of water in the center. "Alright...things might get a little wet in here. And cold. I'm going to start now."

Roy raised his hands in the air, chanting, as the water began to move. He stood, as the water formed into a collumn. The machines helping to focus his magic were most likely the only reason he could do all of this, but he kept trying his hardest to contact an elemental.

He made contact! The water started to surge, and grow, and he knew it had soaked both Vrac and Tech, but he diddn't have time to check. The elemental was coming through! He continued the chant, but what he diddn't realize was that he had mis-pronounced "Aquillius" as "Aquolus". The water suddenly stoped moving, and dissapeared.

"What the hell?" He said, as he stared at the bowl. Nothing was happening anymore! Then everything started happaning all at once. In a huge splash of water, light, and wind, two portals opened, and Roy had to cross his arms over his face amd brace his boots into the carpeting to keep from being blown away.

"You guys alright over there?" He screamed to them. His deep voice could barely be heard over the screaming wind, but he hoped they heard him. A moment later, he sat two figures emerge from the bowl. The howling stopped, and everthing died down.

"Hello, new master!" One of them said. It appeared to be a teenage girl, tall-ish, with whispy white hair. The other seemed to be her twin, but slightly shorter, with green hair. "Is something wrong? I am an Oxygen elemental, not many people summon and bind us! My sister here is a Hydrogen elemental!"

"Ummmm...hi?"

[Vrac Dudall]

"Aquillius. It's aquillius, not aquolus. Is this the kind of situation you wanted me to help you with or do you think you can manage it yourself, half human?"

Vrac wasn't very happy. He had been suprised about that effect and it only strengthened his opinions about a) this guys talent and b) most mages were showoffs.
When he looked at the summoned creatures it was something really strange with them. Apparently he had failed a summoning but instead of something fun happening, such as a portal to the demons dimension or something, he seem to have done something else.
Vrac wasn't very much into chemistry so he didn't know about the connection between hydrogen and oxygen, at his time four elements, light and dark had been just enough.

[Roy Atenwood]

"Ok then....Oxygen and Hydrogen. Those are the base components of water......how did that happen?" He laughed in sheer amazment, and pulled a notepad out of a drawer on his night stand and began to take notes. "Amazing....honestly, truly amazing......I have no idea how this happened but....wow. Tell me, how did you two happen to cross through the portal?"

"Well......we heard a voice. Your voice, and we came toward it!" The one with white hair exclaimed cheerfully. "I'm an oxygen elemental, and I love being one! I'm one of your new fammiliars!"

"Don't you even kow what you did?" The one with green hair said to him. "You're hopeless. Can I go with the him instead? Please?" She said. Well, "she" was a relative term. It was really asexual. She pointed at Tech, and Roy laughed.

This was odd. Roy had completely ignored both Tech and Vrac, concentrating only on the beings he saw before him. Finaly he turned toward Vrac. "I botched the pronounciation, and it summoned theese two....amazing. Tech and I can handle things from here, Vrac. Take the Rapier hung on the wall, next to the door. It's a good blade, forged and enchanted by the elves. It's steel, not silver. Consider it payment."

Roy turned back toward the two Elementals. They were completely oposite in personality, and that in itself was fascinating. How could two beings who would join to become a Water Elemental be so different?

"I have no idea why you're staring at us," the hydrogen-being said, "but you need to stop. It's creepy."

[Vrac Dudall]

"Yeah, I think I'll leave it to you two. Just tell me what kind of an enchantment that lies on the sword and I'll be out of this joke."

This was really stupid. How could someone summon two halfes of a summoning? Or create the separate parts of water? Vrac could barely believe that it was possible even though he had just witnessed it.
He went over to where the sword hung and took it down and checked it. It was a pretty good work of art and the edge were sharp.

"This'll do nicely."

[Brandon (Tech)]

Tech had frowned when the water had ceased moving. Suspecting a glitch in one of his precious machines, he had moved in to investigate. It was a sad mistake, as he soon learned, the combined forces of water and wind smashing him up against a wall, the light almost shurt circuiting his artificial imgae processor. Despite Tech's best attempts it adjusted to light slower than his biological eye.

He got up unharmed and drenched, checking his clothes for damage. "Aww man. I liked this shirt." His complaining ended abruptly when he saw what had appeared in the room. He had never seen an elemental until now, but this not what he had expected. An unintentionel "What the fuck?" escaped his lips, Mech turning slightly from side to side, shaking his skull

[Roy Atenwood]

"Ummm..ok. So...you're my new familiars?" Roy said, astonished. He had never had anyone happy to see him, so he knew that something was horribly amiss. He diddn't like the way the Hydrogen Elemental was looking at him. Not one bit.

Hydrogen spoke up then, and said"Well......only if you can sway us. Diddn't you study the spell before you cast it? You make a pact with the elementals, and if we agree, you have two new friends, so to speak. If we don't......well....let's just say I'll have some fun" She/It had said it with a sick smile on her face.

"Oh...well then...ummm....hey, so what'you guys want? CuzI'llgivveyoujustaboutanythingIDON'TWANNADIE!" Roy was a little freaked out. Well, really freaked out. They would kill him? He'd had a rocky childhood, but death wasn't high on his to-do list.

He cleared his throat, and decided to speak in a more concise manner. Panic would just get him killed.

"So, what would you like, then?"

[Brandon (Tech)]

Tech had regained his calm, switching his artificial eye to ´analisys´ mode. He was ready to eject his blades and jump to Roy's aide, should it be neccesary, but for now he would remain a passive observer. Mech was also recording the events, both his recording camera and sound recorder working to catch everything that went on. Afterwards, they would check to see what had gone wrong, and if it had damaged any of their precious apparatus

[Roy Atenwood]

"Well, first off, we get to tell you our names! Yay! I'm Esiuhoieufe, The Oxygen Elemental! That's Ayschoine, the Hydrogen Elemental!" Esiuhoieufe exclaimed cheerfully. She looked at Roy, and started to pout. "I want to tell people about Oxygen Elementals! We almost never get summoned!"

"Well......I think I can help with that, Esiuhoieufe. I can make posters, and stuff." Roy just hoped Ayschoine had a reasonable request, as well.

Ayschoine looked at him, and smiled. "I want to see a star. Up close. I also want to see some of the gas planets up close. Maybe a nebula or two, as well. I trust you can escort me?"

"Umm...stars.....planets...nebulas? Can I just say that I'll try? I mean, I might be able to, if I learn Astral Projection. Would that be alright?" Roy said, his voice shaking slightly.

"It'll do. I accept, and I'm pretty sure that Esiuhoieufe does as well, as soon as she finishes playing withg that metal skull over there."

Roy looked over at Esiuhoieufe, and saw her playing with Mech, poking him over and over again. "Esiuhoieufe, maybe you shouldn't do that? Tech might get mad."

[Brandon (Tech)]

Mech responded to the provocation by hovering up, out of ´her´ apparant reach. "Don't do that" Tech said as if someone was rummaging through his personal belongings. "He's not a dog you know" Mech was a being with no sense of anger unless somebody decided to harm either Tech or their machines. He didn't count himself among their creations, however, and therefore he was not mad, but Tech was somewhat more protective.

Out of respect for Roy he kept his anger low, but it was still there. "What'd you do that for?" He asked the oxygen elemental as though she had just kicked a cat for fun. "I don't care how rarely you get summoned, you might wanna show some respect. And I hope you don't wonder why it's so rare"

[Roy Atenwood]

Roy suddenly heard sobbing. He looked over to where Esiuhoieufe was, and she was crybing. "You're NEGATIVE!" She yelled, and pointed at Tech. Immidiately afterward, she hid behind Roy. "Ummm...hey, Tech? Maybe you should calm down a bit. She diddn't hurt Mech, did she?"

He walkedover to the other side of the dorm, and pulled out a towel. "Dry off, and have some Rocky Road, Tech. Calm down." Roy laughed. All he needed was to learn Astral Projection, and he was already taking Dreamwalking, and that was walking on another plane of existance. Or something.

"Oh boy...this is gonna be harder than I thought." He said, suddenly realizing how different Dreamwalking and Astral Projection were.


"Ugh, you two are hopeless. Why the hell do humams enjoy eating Glucose Solids, polysaccharides, and various triglycerides? It's disgusting!" Ayschoine said, in a condenscending tone.

"Ummm......what?" Roy said, with a small tub of Ban&Jerrys in his hands.

[Brandon (Tech)]

Tech was confused, this was not at all what he had expected this to be, although he waasn't sure what he had expected. "Well sorry" He was scratching the back of his head, the bit where he still had organic tissue. "He just took me a long time to build, that's all" This was turning out to be somewhat more wierd than he had first expected.

"They please the taste-buds and gives them a sensation of pleasure, that usually develops into a minor form of addiction" was his response to the hydrgen elementals question, although he doubted she wanted an answer. "It's simply something that makes them, us" He corrected himself, as the chocolate addict that he was. "a sense of security." He gratefully accepted Roy's offer, that part of his brain was still organic and therefore had the same cravings

[Vrac Dudall]

"I have no idea what you're talking about, but I assume that you mean 'food' or possibly 'candy'. And most humans do that because they're gluttons that likes to eat. But I'm not complaining, it's like having a pigfarm breed itself for christmas, free food."

He knew that she wouldn't get it but he knew that Tech and Roy probably would get the idea.
He held the rapier so that Roy would see it.

"Now, could you please answer my question and tell me what kind of enchantment that lies on this sword?"
