				Some times, at the Academy, things went wrong. More often, it was something wrong beyond its walls, and in need of fixing.&nbsp; To encourage the students to handle these problems, and get some hands on experience, a mission board has been set up.<br><br>Missions are posted, not just by the faculty, but also by some students. When a mission is accomplished, payment is given out; most often in the form of money, which ends up back into the schools coffers anyways through things like the cafeteria, but some times items of value are offered up as well.<br><br>All students are expected to present proof of accomplishment before they can cash in the reward. Even if a student has accomplished the mission, but can't prove it, they will not be able to receive the reward. Upon completion, a student should take proof of accomplishment, along with the page outlining the mission, and turn them in at the main office.

				Name: Van<br>Place: in front of message boards<br>Who: Siren and open<br><br>Van looked at the list of missions that were posted, his eyes scanned each one to see which one would be the best choose, he knew the night ones would have issues with cause they would hopefully be busy that night working on something far different then fighting or anything that was related to fighting. He let his glance looked at each other, in turn. He first knew the training one wouldn't work, cause it just seemed not his style, and he wanted to make some cash.<br><br>His eyes caught on the mission to clean up the library which was neat, but he could see it turning bad now, some bullets logged into books, him getting into trouble for being loud, so many ways for which that mission could turn so bad, and in the end cost him money to do as well. That made that a rather easy no as well.<br><br>Given that left only the night missions and one other one. He looked at the other one, it paid something at least, and it seemed easy enough, he pulled it off the wall, and showed it to Siren, "how about this one, it seems good to me, I mean how hard can it be to find some truffles, plus maybe we will get to take on something tough and get some more experience," he said with a grin on his lips as he looked at Siren, wanting to double check the choose with her, sense he was going to do the mission with her after all.

				Who: Sparx Larsa<br>For: Siren, Van, and Open<br>Where: Heading to the Mission Board.<br>When: Mid Afternoon, Sunday<br><div class="floatleft">(http://img259.imageshack.us/img259/3635/sparxlarsa.jpg)</div><hr><br>Sparx came ripping across campus on his hover-board; his white jacket fluttering in the turbulance as it hooked around corners, shot through the hallways, and flew overhead whenever he happened to catch a bit of air. He didn't have time to pump the brakes whenever somebody got in the way. They'd just have to move, or he'd ave to dodge. Many a student almost met a terrible end at by means of taking a hover board to the liver, but all seemed to be able to make a narrow escape just before collision.<br><br>Sparx was on a mission.<br><br>He knew this year he would be forced to participate in one of the school's more dangerous hunts, so he only had two things in mind. He needed to find out exactly what type of missions would be going on so that he could pick the most simple of them all, and he needed to find somebody who he knew would protect him during such hunts. Everything seemed simple enough: He'd find Siren, enlist her as a partner (really, a bodyguard), and then only accept the truly mediocre missions he knew she would totally dominate single-handedly. Only problem was: Siren wasn't in the medical office.<br><br>That was bad.<br><br>Not only did he have to look all over campus to find her, but he had to do it quick enough to get back to the mission board and pick the easiest one before someone else gets to it. ~Dammit where is she?!~ He picked up speed for a moment, then suddenly pulled into a harsh brake. The hover-board stopped mid-flight, and Sparx paused to think out loud for a moment. "I'm just wasting time trying to find her now... But, if I go to the board first and select the easiest mission, then at least it will be reserved for when I do find her! Yes!" And with a quick turn, he was blasting off again, this time towards the mission board.<br><br>It wouldn't be long before the tech-geek tore through campus yet again, finally arriving at his destination. He jumped down off the board before it came to a complete stop and scooped it up underneath his arm, allowing him to make a light jog to the board. What he saw, however, froze him in his tracks. Yes, Siren was there, but so was another student: one Sparx was yet to be familiarized with. Neither of them would have saw the spiky-headed young man just yet, but he hesitated to make his forward approach. Had they already picked a mission to go on together? Knowing Sparx's luck, it was definitely the easiest on the list.<br><br>He felt his entire plan fall to shambles in that instant. Sure, he was a good strategist, but this was real life. The other students weren't just NPCs that stuck around waiting to give you quests. They had their own intelligence and moved through an open world setting in real time. They even had their own motives; most of the time that didn't agree with the gamer. With a defeated sigh he stood back, away from the two. He needed to come up with another plan fast, but his motivation was completely shot at the moment. He didn't know anybody else at the school besides Zaara and Chiya, but he hadn't seen either of them since Combat Training.<br><br>~Damn... I'm screwed...~ It pained him to know that he put himself into this situation. If only he was a bit more sociable or talkative. If only he'd take the time to interact with others, maybe he'd actually have people he could go to in situations like this. The life of a loner was cold and empty in the end; one that left you in the Yokai Forest without any support or protection. ~Now what...?~

				Who: Van<br>Where: mission board<br>Who: Siren, Sparx<br><br>He was focused a good deal on Siren, but that was cause he wanted to show off, as well as he wanted to spend time around the super hottie. He heard something though, it wasn't going to be right to just ignore the fact someone else happened to be nearby either. He knew the person, he had good hearing especially for a person, as well as great eyesight. He tapped on Siren's shoulder after a moment, "looks like we will be able to take this mission as a group of three after all," he said calculating the fact they would get more as a group, and still get 6 dollars per truffle they were able to find. <br><br>"Well now, Sparx Larsa, if I remember correctly, the one that was picked to lead our group too, you looking for a mission from it looks like to me," he said with a smile on his lips as he looked at the fellow student of his. "We are going on a mission that can have up to three people join in, and I am sure that Siren wouldn't mind having you come along for the mission. I know your really smart and could come up with a great idea to cover the most area and get the most truffles." he said respectfully. He figured that the more the merrier, he wanted to get along with all his classmates and be friends with them as well. Plus having help wasn't a bad thing at all.&nbsp; That as well as he could see just what Sparx was capable of as well, so he would have a better understanding of the young man's strengths and weaknesses as well in case they ever worked together again.<br><br>"So what do you say, Sparx, you up for looking for some truffles, could be some really fun monsters to take down, and fight, a real challenge, I can't wait to take them down, get the truffles and get paid," he said with a confident tone, he was very confident in himself which showed, but of course it wasn't confident to the point of being over the top, just a mater of fact confidence he had gotten from his experience fighting and hunting targets. <br>

At first, the young gamer thought Van would turn out to be the type of person to give him trouble for being picked as class leader, but it seemed his invitation to join in on the hunt was more sincere than that. Even better, Siren was coming along, which meant they would have someone with short and mid-range combat skills, as well as a quick-witted gunner for long range. The tech-nerd looked at the other student as he explained the situation and he couldn't help but allow a tiny smile to form on his face. "Umm, sure, if that's okay." His shyness was beginning to surface. He didn't know much about the other human aside from the fact that he used guns as his primary weapon. Sparx always found himself nervous around strangers. He felt like he had a certain expectation to live up to in order to fit it, or else risk rejection. No feeling is worse than total rejection, and the fear put a lot of pressure on the young teen to try and fit in. To bad he had almost no real-life social skills.<br><br>Aside from the social anxieties of real life, he now was apart of a team hunting Truffles. What in the world was a Truffle? Was it some kind of imp-like creature? They sounded Level Oneish, though, so he didn't think such a hunt would be too difficult. Even still, he was drawing a blank as to what type of creature it could possibly be. "What.... exactly is a Truffle, anyway?" As he asked, he took a moment to run the word Truffle through a few search engines to see if he could find out more about them. Most of what he got seemed to be some type of baked treat or candy. This couldn't be right, so he kept searching as well as keeping his attention attuned to any answers that might be given.

				Name:Siren<br>Place:Message Board<br>Who: Van, Sprax<br><br>Siren looked at the paper with the details for truffles. They may get to fight to. Which made her smile softly. She would get to test what it was that she had learned with her mother. And felt she would have no problems against low level demons who would decide to attack them. She wasn't the type of girl to crumple at the sight of a demon, she fought , and she does well at it.Biting her lower lip she nodded. "Seems easy enough. we can do it." With her wings she would able to fly about rather quickly. Although she wouldn't stray to far from Van.<br><br>The sound of feet scuffling along the tiled flooring caught her ears before, Van tapped her shoulders, her slight pointed ears perking at the sounds as she turned her pink gaze to the other human boy. "There you are Sprax thought you disappeared, when everyone was beginning to file into the lunchroom." Siren teased him offering him a smile. &nbsp;"Ohh that's a great idea,&nbsp; Sprax do say you will join us."She watched the nervous boy. she bet he was not used to this, and wondered if he knew any actual self defense.

				Who: Van<br>Place: Message Board<br>Who: Siren, Sparx<br><br>Van smiled as he looked at Siren, and nodded his head, "it should be really not to hard, the tricky part is going to be finding the darn things, they are not so easy to find, normally you have to use a trained dog or pig to be able to find them," he said as he looked at her, it was going to be a challenge that part. He had an idea though, they had three people, and while Sparx couldn't fight, he figured he had a tech ability that might be very helpful in this mission.<br><br>"Sparx, A truffle is a type of fungi, it is used a very expensive food, and grows wildly, not sure why people like to eat them, but I guess if people eat fish eggs, you can tell what else they will eat," he said with a smile as he looked over his fellow human and smiled, "here is where you are going to come into play in this situation, your not a fighter from what I can tell, but you are better at tech stuff then I am, or siren here. I want you to create a program to find the truffles themselves, use this program to help us find them, and then Siren and I will take down anything that isn't friendly. We will then hopefully come back with enough to make this worthwile," Van announced giving his idea to the both of them at the same time.<br><br>He had actually thought this all up on the spur of the moment, he used to be quized endlessly on how to react, and what the best tactics were by his parents during the middle of fights with various types of demons. He always found them to be the most annoying and useless thing in the world. Yet, perhaps they were not so useless, perhaps, he was able to learn something to be able to help himself, yet, he wasn't for sure going to admit that fact to his parents.

				Name:Siren<br>Place: Message Board<br>Who:Van and Sprax<br><br>Siren walked between the two human boys and smiled. She was a flirt she couldn't help who she was and what demonic line she housed within her. She placed a hand on both boys arms. "Okay so, we have the mission, and an idea shall we go off to its location?Now that there is three of us surely while some of us fight the demons that come to play while the other grabs the mushrooms that they could see. Sound good?" She cocked her head to one side. Listening to Vans voice as he explained what truffles were. She already knew what it was but still how he showed patience and explained it was still rather nice of him.<br><br>"Yes that would work..could you make a program meant to locate this things. Be a lot faster in truths."She smiled, batting thick dark lashes and looking into Sprax eyes with her own pink ones."yes and get back by night fall no later."She offered Van a small playful wink.

His blank expression was exaggerated by the bright glare of his glasses and his parted lips. You can't just develop a program to interact with the outside world. It just didn't work like that. He'd need a lot more than a string of codes to find a fungus in the back yard. He'd need entirely new hardware: sensory equipment at best, and designing something like that would take time, materials, not to mention research on how Truffles are different from other fungi so an X-factor can be developed... Who did they think he was?<br><br>That's when he remembered he probably did have something like that lying around his room. It was way back in middle school when he was attempting to modify his grandfather's metal detector. Sparx hooked it up so that it would be smaller, portable, and even installed a screen in which would only display the type of material it was programmed to pick up. The brown-haired teen could easily reprogram the device to pick up fungal spores in the air, which would allow him to follow the trail all the way to the source.<br><br>After some research, he could probably attune it to the specific characteristics of Truffles and single out all other fungal types. He wouldn't need a new program at all; just to retune an old dusty device from a few years back. He fell silent for a moment as he tore through volumes of WakiSpace and Yehoo Answers for as much information as possible. He then realized he was probably being awkwardly silent while the others stood there, and he looked up with an embarrassed smile. "Oh, sorry!" He laughed a bit and rubbed the back of his head with an awkward smirk. "I, umm... yeah, I could do that. Shouldn't be too hard."<br><br>His attention slowly drifted back to the datapad and he resumed reading the information on display. "Yeah... I think I can hook something up. It might take awhile though..." And then a breakthrough. Sparx found some information about the fungi's specific traits and scent that trained animals use to sniff them out. A lightbulb turned on above his head as he started forwarding the information to his main computer back at home. Oh yeah, this would be perfect. And with Van and Siren doing all the fighting, all he had to do was find them. Oh yes, this will be brilliant. Maybe he won't die this year after all.

				<br>Who: Van<br>Place: Message Board<br>Who: Siren, Sparx<br><br>Van looked at the genius tech guru of the group and then nodded his head as he listened to his statement about being able to find the truffles, his abilities would be the lynchpin of the whole operation, he knew that if this genius wasn't able to figure it out, then that the plan would go up into smoke and would do anyone any good at all. He was worried for a moment as he looked at him, and then nodded his head as he heard his statement that it could be done.<br><br>"Okay, how long, cause when you are done we will meet down in the courtyard and head out for the forest," he said calmly as he looked at the tech genius. "Well, while you do that, Siren and I will go get ready for the mission and then meet you at the location at the given time, does that sounds workable for you?"<br><br>Van waited for a reply, he figured it would take some time to get something new put together, and he didn't know the skill level of Sparx either, he figued that the genius had to be really bright otherwise, he couldn't understand just how the heck he ended up at a school for learning to fight demons. He looked at him and then glanced over at Siren as he waited, he knew if he could do this, this would turn out to be some serious easy money for them.
