Volt's Temple is the most retarded place… EVER Well, already writing a story, but I had to xD What if… What if they were school kids stuck together in one big dorm, with some teachers.

Edit

8/16/07 There are some minor changes here.

Lloyd Irving

I wonder how exactly this happened. It was a normal day when Colette, Genis, and I were applying to Symphonia Academy. Apparently it was some big high class school that Genis applied for. Colette applied too, just to see if she was capable of making it. Well… I didn't want to be alone, and if Colette and Genis got accepted… I would be. In the end, we all applied and took the exams. I got in… barely.

Man, do I have the weirdest teachers or what? I mean, ok, Raine Sage, Genis' big sister who was a Professor there, well, she's ok, except for the part where she threw erasers at me. Then another teacher came in and started flirting with her and she threw erasers at him… And well, she happened to call another teacher in the hall… I guess it was painful for that guy. I mean, the Teacher the Professor called literally dragged the flirty teacher out and painful screams could be heard. I felt bad.

Colette Brunel

I feel really bad. The painful screams sounded really brutal. I wish I could've helped, but I guess when someone is like that… There isn't much you can do, is there? I wanted to go apologize for not helping, but Lloyd and Genis wouldn't let me. They said I had nothing to do with it, but I still felt really bad! I even bumped into him, then I apologized and was about to say sorry for the incident earlier where he got hurt, but Lloyd dragged me away before I got the chance.

I'm really happy at Symphonia Academy though! I met an old neighborhood friend of mine, Presea Combatir again. I used to live in a small town called Ozette, but the mom and dad decided to move to Iselia, which was far from Ozette, so I didn't see Presea anymore. To be honest, Ozette was in the place called Tethe'alla and Iselia was in a place called Sylvarant, they were next to each other, but still… Anyway, I think it was Presea, unless someone else has her pink hair!

Genis Sage

Damn it, Colette is way to apologetic. And that red-haired Teacher is an idiot! I mean first, he comes in the middle of class and then when Lloyd, Colette, and I are in his class… He calls me twerp! That stupid teacher! After an hour of trying to confirm whether the Presea girl was the girl Colette knew when she lived on Ozette Lane, well we did. It was her. I mean… She's pretty cute…

"Hey, Genis, you okay? Your face it turning all red." It is?! I didn't know that! Oh crap!

"I-I'm all right, just a little hot!" I replied hastily, just to get Lloyd off my case. Good thing, cause it worked. He just shrugged and said "Well, if you say so."

I'm a bit scared to face Raine after the house incident… Well, not like it affects me since I live in a student dorm now, but it affects her. She was pissed.

Raine Sage

Damn that Zelos! The nerve! How dare he come to me and try to flirt, and in the middle of class!? It was a relief that Sheena happened to be by, or I might've just gotten myself a bad reputation by killing that conceited man. I was in the middle of teaching! One of my students, who lived in my town, Colette Brunel, told me that Zelos had several bandages on him that day in class. I wonder what Sheena did to him… I need her to teach me to fight other then chucking books and erasers at my enemies.

What's even worse is… I heard I have to move into a Student Dorm for a few months! Apparently Genis left the stove on… And things didn't end up too pretty. We burnt (Or well, Genis) the majority of the house. Genis says we should find a new place, but I sure don't want to. I'm certain that I'm satisfied with the location of my house, seeing as it is a walking distance from the Academy, so I demanded they do construction on it as I see fit, and so the Principal asked me to stay in a Student Dorm. They told me they needed someone to keep watch of the wild things going on.

Kratos Aurion

This is going to be an interesting year. As usual, Raine was complaining about Zelos's flirtatious attitude. He came into the Teacher's Lounge with cuts, a lump on his head, and bruises. Sheena spoke up, "Well, it's about time you woke up."

"But Sheena, you hit me so hard! I guess my Violent Demonic Banshee was just speaking words of love through her actions. You know you should try going to a Therapist, they can--" Was all he said to her, curtailing his mini-speech, before he realized he had signed his very own death wish by making those claims. Apparently Sheena walked up to him and pushed the Teacher to the ground, rather painfully stepped on his limbs and dumped her can of soda on his face before she stomped out, without forgetting to kick his head.

I'm surprised the pitiful man isn't dead yet. Honestly, at one point (Maybe this was when I was half asleep or when Zelos decided to force sake down my throat at a party.) I thought maybe it's just his ghost we were talking to.

Sheena Fujibayashi

Well, that Zelos Wilder had it coming! First, he tried to flirt with Raine, one of my friends, in the middle of her teaching session and then when I drag him out, try to flirt his way out of getting hurt! I hope that taught him something! Oh, who am I kidding? It's impossible to teach an imbecile like that. I'm curious how a man like that received a job in the first place. I guess I like my students, although that Lloyd kid is a little dense. I met Colette too. I remember her, a little girl who came by Mizuho a lot when she was little. That was when she lived in Ozette. There was a forest between our towns. Gaoracchia Forest, it was fairly big, but made climbing over the mountain to get the other side which was where Mizuho was, well, absolutely nothing. The little girl came over for wishing tags and good lucky charms a lot. She stopped coming after moving to Iselia so I guess things got a little quiet.

This is going to be a long year. I heard that I have to live in a Student Dorm because the two teachers, Cacao and Marble are going off to visit Chocolat, their daughter/granddaughter because she got sick. Celsius and Luna, the Dorm Advisors offered to teach until the two get back, so Principal Martel asked me be a Dorm Advisor. I heard Raine got trapped in a student dorm too. Maybe I won't be so alone.

Zelos Wilder

Man, my Violent Demonic Banshee is still as merciless as ever! That hurt… a lot! I guess what Principal Martel told me made my day though. I get to stay in the middle Dormitory! It's the dorm between the Boy's Dormitory and Girl's Dormitory that Celsius and Luna, the Dorm Advisors use. It's a shame they have to act as substitutes while Marble and Cacao are taking care of Chocolat, so they can't stay there for now. I heard Luna is crashing with Undine and Celsius is moving in with the Sylph sisters.

I have some cute students this year! My Ultra Cool Beauty and Voluptuous Hunny are still here this year (I swear, I wonder every year if I'm annoying them enough to make them transfer schools!) and some cute girl students. There was this Colette girl who seemed so nice and pretty cute. She had a friend, Presea, who I heard about. I heard she's super strong or something. I'm a little scared… Seles e-mailed me and said she's going to visit. I mean, it's not like I don't want her to, but she'll cut my time with my Violent Banshee.

Presea Combatir

There was a 67 chance someone was stalking me, definitely. It was just Colette Brunel though, the ditzy girl who used to live in Ozette before she moved to Iselia. I'm surprised she made it to Symphonia Academy, one of the most prestigious schools in all of Symphonia, thus why it got the name Symphonia Academy. To be honest, the exams were not difficult at all.

These outfits feel somewhat odd. I'm not accustomed to wearing a white blouse with a black tie and black skirt. This is just the Spring-Summer uniform. The Autumn-Winter uniform was… stockings, long sleeves, and a coat for outdoors. Principal Martel gave me my Dorm room today, room 94, to be exact. She said it was probably crowded since I had to live in the Dorm Advisor's mini-dorm house in between the Boys' Dorm and Girls' Dorm, due to the room I was supposed to move into having rats found in it and it was being inspected.

I walked outside, heading to the dorm. I fumbled with my fingers until I got the right key, since Alicia had a habit of sticking a bunch of key chains on my key ring. It's a memento, or so she said. I creaked open the door, only to have met not the dorm advisors, but two teachers sitting next to each other, and another practically dead one.

"Um, excuse me?"

Regal Bryant

This was going to be fun, if Zelos doesn't decide to throw another party and nearly get us all fired. I opened the doors to my new room. Principal Martel needed a Dorm Advisor or two because Celsius and Luna had to be substitutes, so I had to fill in for them. I only met to see Zelos looking half-dead, Presea, Sheena, Kratos, Genis, and Raine discussing something while Lloyd dug through the Fridge.

"What is going on?" I asked curiously, raising an eyebrow. (Note: No shackles here.) Everyone turned my heads to me, and began explaining the whole situation.

"This will be interesting." I commented, just when Zelos jolted up.

"Oh, and Seles is visiting too!" Zelos said, but it was more like a warning beforehand.

"Oh… No… Anyone, but her! I'm out of here!" Sheena said, jumping up and heading towards the door, but Zelos grabbed and hugged her ankle. I was sure she was thankful she didn't wear a skirt today.

"Get off me Zelos! You know how I feel about that girl!" Sheena said, kicking Zelos's head.

"Um, Professor Sage, Mr. Bryant, Mr. Aurion, what's going on?" Lloyd inquired, but we all shook their heads, but the students took it as a sign that those two have a bad relationship, which was true.

On the Dormitory that night (No longer a POV)

"I'm hungry!" Lloyd complained, but only to have Sheena chuck a spoon at his forehead.

"Hey, what--!" Lloyd began, but Sheena cut him off. "Next time, it's going to be a fork." Lloyd took this as a warning, since he didn't need nor want a scar on his forehead shaped like 4 dots.

"That's my voluptuous babe, always--!" Zelos began too, but was shut up when there was a knife right next to him, planted on the wall, centimeters away from his face. Sheena didn't even turn to make another threat, since flinging a knife; it was centimeters away from his face. Zelos had to be smart enough to take that as a good warning, right? Wrong, because he didn't.

"Now no need to get violent, right?" Zelos asked nervously chuckling. At that time, he and Lloyd stay in the living room while Sheena, Colette, Genis, Regal stayed to cook dinner. Kratos had left a short while ago to negotiate with Principal Martel and Vice-Principal Mithos in order to find a possible way to avoid this. Raine was told to clean up because Genis feared her presence in the kitchen. Presea went to the convenience store to find the essentials, fans, ice, food, and all the commonly known items.

Zelos practically screamed when he nearly avoided the second knife that stabbed the floor he sat on. There was something different; it was a butcher knife. He looked at his now bleeding finger, acting like a picky little kid.

"Sheena! You cut me!" Zelos complained, showing finger to Sheena, even though she dare not look at his puppy face, but ended up doing so, anyway.

"Zelos, you're such a child. It's a small cut, big deal." Sheena said, turning her head away.

"But it hurts! Kiss it, Sheena!" Zelos whined again, irritating the short-temped teacher. The flirtatious Teacher would never miss a chance to get a kiss from Sheena, the hard-to-get girl, even if it was on her finger. Lloyd was in awe. He never expected a Teacher to be so childish, even Zelos Wilder. He and Zelos didn't hear the kitchen conversation though.

"Sheena, you should at least say sorry!" Colette scolded, washing a few fruits and vegetables.

"He had it coming!" Sheena replied slamming the knife which was cutting the vegetable.

"I don't blame her. I surprised she missed on purpose, I think I would've hit his arm or something." Genis replied, pulling out some spaghetti noodles and tossing them into the pot of boiling water.

"Genis, who taught you to be so violent?!" Colette asked, turning to the premature boy.

"Raine." He answered plainly, as if it was the most obvious thing in the world.

"Although his speech is childish, I think an apology is due, Sheena." Regal said, mixing the curry, while vegetables were slowly added.

"Fine, but it's only because it's from another teacher. I don't take orders from my students, they take orders from me." Sheena said, opening the drawer for a bandage.

"Because you are like a dictator." Genis mumbled, but felt a hand grasp his head, threatening to shove his head in the boiling hot water.

"Hey, don't be surprised to find a knife next to you when you wake up." Sheena said, releasing her grasp and Genis breathing deeply and calmly, but he was scared. Sheena stepped out of the kitchen, which really had no door.

"Fine, I'm sorry, happy?" Sheena said, walking forward to the Teacher.

"Now kiss it!" Zelos said, talking in a spoiled child's voice. She crouched down and removed the paper covering the bandage and stuck it around Zelos's cut finger.

"Kiss it!" He continued to complain. Sheena was on the verge of considering Genis's comment about really hitting him with a knife, but held herself back. She pulled the finger towards her face, hesitant, but swallowed her pride and kissed the single finger. Zelos smirked widely, before saying, "Now let me return the favor." Sheena was taken back by what he said, but even more taken back when he did what he did.

Zelos grasped Sheena's wrist and pulled her towards him and he…

He kissed her.

"Oh my god!" Lloyd exclaimed, crawling away from the two while Sheena acted like she was two shocked to react. Zelos pulled away and grinned widely, and Sheena realized everyone in the house just saw. Red as a tomato, Sheena without words, stomped into the kitchen, tearing open a drawer. Zelos looked curiously when Sheena arrived back out, hands behind her back. When he looked, Sheena revealed her hands, various knives of different kinds, sitting in between her delicate-appearing fingers.

"Zelos Wilder, you will pay!" Sheena said, glaring daggers at him. As if the poor guy didn't need more knifes.

"W-wait, Sheena!" Zelos said, backing away, making a run for it while Sheena attempted to strike knives at him, only hitting walls.

5 pieces of Shadow?! You have to be kidding me! Ooh, 7 pages. A long chapter in my terms. I think I really like the outcome of this xD Couples will be:

Lloyd x Colette

Genis x Presea

Sheena x Zelos (Obviously, after what you just saw.)

Kratos x Raine

I feel bad for Regal all by himself, maybe I'll bring in Alicia!

Preview

Although I couldn't see she was crying, I knew she wasn't happy. She was holding her tears back, I just knew it. I raised my arms and pulled her into a light embrace.

"I protect you, no matter what, so that stuff won't happen anymore, ok?" I told her, promising her that I'd keep her away from that kind of trauma.

"Thank you." Was all she said, but I understood it was more then that.

I was trying not to cry, but it was so hard, holding back the tears beginning to well up in my eyes. He stood there, stunned and I couldn't blame him. I felt my self pulled into a light embrace. It was him. Good he couldn't see it, since I was turning a little red.

"I protect you, no matter what, so that stuff won't happen anymore, ok?" He told me. I was so thankful he was right there, because it hurt to be by myself.

"Thank you." I replied, but I was sure the moment he heard that, he knew it meant more then just a thanks.

End Preview

And here's a teaser, just for you! This may be a little inappropriate, but it's not a lemon, really.

Teaser

"We shouldn't…" She told him, but he placed a finger lightly on her lips.

"It's fine. No one will bother us." He replied calmly and moved his arm back to her waist. Her arms were laced around his neck. He leaned in and kissed her, and she kissed him back. They only separated themselves when they ran out of the breath. He kissed her neck and she fiddled with his hair. Soon he came back up and kissed her a second time, this time, it was as one might call it, Second base. Yes, he slipped a tongue into her mouth. Just then the knob turned, but just when she was about to separate and pull away, he wouldn't let her, moving one hand to her head and keeping her kissing him, only because he didn't seem to notice the door and didn't know why the girl would stop so suddenly.

That's when the door busted open, only to have the boy opening it, stumbling back.

She and the man stopped and looked at the boy; white haired and innocent. "I'm sorry!" He choked out and the couple blushed furiously. Everyone rushed over to find the man with one arm holding the back of the girl's head and another holding her waist, while the girl head her hands laced around head neck, intertwined with his hair.

"Why you…" One girl said, twitching. "How dare you seduce my brother?!"

End Teaser

Well, it's sort of obvious who was in the room having fun, neh? Please don't hurt me for not putting this in this chapter. I was so tempted, but then I'd end up rushing the relationship, so I stopped myself. It should appear in the next few upcoming chapters, in POV version.
