Research (Open)

Researching creatures and everything to do with them was something that Aaliyah had been doing for a while and now that she was at Luna and had pretty much a whole library to her disposal meant that the girl was more or less spending nearly all of her time there, reading through the books and then writing short essay's based on the creature she was researching that week.

So it was no surprise to see the girl in the library.

However today the girl in question was looking for something that could tell her more about her powers. Her Healing Touch was something that she was glad to have however since she didn't exactly practice before coming to Luna she wasn't really sure what else, apart from healing flesh like cuts and bullet wounds, she could do with it so she hoped that there was a book or something that could tell her more.

"Seriously?" The blond scowled as she moved through the aisles with a frown on her face. "Is there nothing that can tell me about my power?"

Jules had heard from some of the students that Cassandra had some books that were vandalized and needed new copies. So Jules went to the book shop and bought some more for her, even though some of the books were rare and priceless Jules would make sure to be on the look out for more as she knew how precious these books were to Cassie.

Jules walked into the library and delivered the books to her. " Cassie? Are you here?" She asked throughout the library, she placed the books on a table and didn't see Cassie in her office so she decided to look around and see if she saw her anywhere. " Cassie! I have something for you!" She continued to call as she walked.

Jules turned right and saw a young girl in sitting there, she had seen her around before. " Good afternoon Ms. Burkov, studying for some school work?" She asked as she walked towards the young girl. Jules knew just about all of her students names and faces, she was one of those people that when they saw you she remembered who you were.

Aaliyah frowned and stared at the books, a pout appearing on her lips. It seemed that she would be unable to find anything to help her with her powers. Maybe she should go to the uni doctor? She jumped a tiny bit when she heard the voice of the Headmistress and quickly turned around to smile at her.

"Good afternoon Headmistress." Aaliyah said softly, bowing her head in greeting. "Not today. I've done most of my school work... I'm looking for a book that could help me understand my power." The eighteen year old frowned and sighed.

Jules noticed the young girl jump a bit when she spoke. Jules walked over to her and looked over her shoulder and to see what she was reading. " Hmm, I don't think this book will help you hun, maybe one of the one's i just bought could help." She suggested, she knew of the girls ability and had never heard of one like it before.

Jules flitted to the front of the library, grabbed the books, and flitted back to Aaliyah. " Here's some books I bought to replace the other copies. Not sure if any of these will help, but who knows? Maybe one has the answer to how your power works." Jules said with a shrug. " How are you enjoying Luna?" She asked curiously.

"Yeah, I don't think so either." Aaliyah sighed as she placed the book back on the shelf with a frown. It would seem that she would have to test her power to see how far she could go. She knew that she could heal flesh wounds but that was all she practised with before coming to Luna.

"Thank you." The blond smiled softly at the Headmistress. "Maybe one of them will..." If not she would just practice and see how far she could go. "I love it!" The blond beamed. "It's pretty cool and everyone here is nice when they want to be."

Jules could see how frustrating it was for her not to know how far she could go with her gift, she had been the same way when she got her gifts. " You'll find something eventually, either with these books or without them. When I got my gifts, i was scared to death, when i was human i got small visions of future events. I never told anyone because I was afraid i would be sent away, but when I was turned and I figured out my gift it got easier to control, how to use it, and how far I could see. Your gift is very different from mine from what I read in your transcript." She said with a kind smile.

Jules was glad to hear that Aaliyah was enjoying Luna. " I'm glad to hear that. Some of the people here are a bit moody I'll say, but everyone is genuinely nice and caring once you get to know them better." She said kindly. " Any particular subject you like out of all your classes?" She asked.

"I know." Aaliyah chuckled softly. "And yeah... I was like that as well... When I saw my power I totally freaked out. I just didn't know why I had this gift when no-one else in the family had it." She sighed. "I didn't tell anyone from my family because I knew they would freak and quite probably kick me out of the house." She snorted. "So I practiced with it and found that I can heal all types of flesh wounds... I haven't tried healing someone of a cold or a virus or things like that.."

"Not really." Aaliyah shook her head to the classes questions. "Though I do like English and History. Both are pretty much fascinating."

(OOC: I thought I posted, so sorry hun)

Jules listened to Aaliyah and nodded softly. " Luckily I wasn't alone Isabella has gifts, Ophelia also has gifts, hers are more deadly than either of ours but I was happy not to be the only one in my family with gifts. But now you're not alone Aaliyah, a lot of students here have gifts and you can all learn from your professors and each other on how to control them." She said with a soft motherly smile. " If they kicked you out than you don't need negative people like that in your life i'd think. But you also have to know people are afraid of what they don't understand." She said with a shrug.

Jules listened to her talk a bit more. " Hmm, well maybe next time a friend of yours gets a cold or something try and heal them and see what happens. I don't think it'll hurt anyone to try and if for some reason someone gets hurt Vince will take care of you." She said, when Aaliyah said she liked English and History she nodded. " History is interesting. I teach Advanced Combat training, which is for Juniors and Seniors only I'm afraid. So you won't have my class for a good couple years. But English is a good class, Azrael is a good teacher." She added.
