Forever Seems Like Never{Open}

[Brent Raven]

Outside, the sun was high over the tower. Late in the afternoon the Mihael boy wandered the school. You had to wonder how Brent had gotten this way, The air outside, was crips and fresh a cool breeze filled the air, making it feel like sping had come early, the day was wonderful. Yet Brent's mood was poor. It was hardly his fault that the moon had rose high in the nights sky. His transformation, always made him irritable. He defiently didn't enjoy his little 'adventure' in the glow of the full moon.

Turning down a hall, his hazel eyes watched the stone walls. The corridor was empty. He knew where everyone was. Their absent laughter echoed off the walls, from the outside. The students we're enjoying one of the last warm days before the frost, the fall was comming upon them in a weird way.

The Mihael ran his hand threw his raven colored hair, the blue colored hair paint that faded against the dark color of his hair. Brent wore his black jeans, his favorite bright blue shirt with a old band title written across the front in white lettering 'Guitar Reign.' It was Brents old band. He missed his old band mated, Jacob Drago, Philip Jameson, and Trevor Tait. Brent had not seen his old friends in a long time, not since the unexpected death of his mother. The band, was over about a year ago, when their lead singer, left the band because of his differences with Brent and his best friend Jacob. Now that had taken a change. The once Guitarist of 'Guitar Reign' was now appart of a new band, called 'Lost and Found,' with his friend Jackie.

Shaking his head Brent heard the un-mistakeable sound of his cousin Kel and friends giggling down the way. Instead of having a stare down, and 'embarass' Kel in frong of her friends. Brent quickly opened the nearest door and walked inside. Looking around the large room, he blinked deeply. He had never been to this room before. Something about the room reminded him of Buri, the fresh ocean air rising him to memory's of his child hood. His home.

Something was terribly wrong. The end of the young girl's sleeve was singed, not the greatest idea to practice spells when one doesn't know any. The Mihael stared at her sleeve, it almost seemed as if staring long enough would make it go back to normal. Blinking a few times, the girl waved her now blackened green shirt sleeve in the air as little pieces of black fabric breaking from the shirt and dancing in the air till it hit the ground.

Quickly the thirteen year old pushed off the cold ground and grabbed her things. She needed to change into a new shirt that wasn't burnt and put some ointment on the small burn that was starting to show on her wrist. Grabbing the rest of her stuff, Munelisa Vincine wandered back into the school from the chilly outdoors. She started down the only hallway she knew led to her common room.

Just as she turned the corner a door suddenly opened in front of her, knocking her off her feet and onto her bum. The door luckily hadn't hit her, just surprised her.. Opening magically then closing quickly. Maybe things like that happened all the time at Hogwarts, who knew?

Grabbing one of her DC shoes that had fallen off in the fall she slid back into the shoe and stood up once again. Curious about the magic door she stood in front of it for a while, staring at it with brown eyes. Reaching out a hand she pulled open the door and slipped in.

[Brent Raven]

Brent could almost hear the waves crashing onto the shoar, that was just a mile away from where he had lived. When the sound of someone coming in interupted his day dream. Or was it even a dream? It was almost real. He almost forgotten again about the girl who had entered. Wow Brent your out of it today. Something about this room. Wasn't natural. It was odd though, Illusion had never mentioned a room like this before. She had been everywhere at this school. Well except the Forbidden Forest. Of course Brent's been there a time or two. But that was his reasonings.

Looking at the girl she had dark brown hair and she had lovely brown eyes. Well this was going to get even more interesting. Well atleast Brent could take his mind off the weird room and it's effects on Brents brain. Stiffling a yawn, Brent spoke. "Hi there...Brent Raven.1^st Year Mihael, Cousin of Illusion Rayne and sadly Kel Elliot." Brent said. Sure family history. But Brent was feeling bored and weird. "I'm only going to asume that you have a name.. But I can be wrong at times." he said with a smile.

[munelisa]

Munelisa blinked and stared at the guy, she hadn't expected to see another person in here. And a first year of the same house, imagine that.. Maybe it was magic after all.. It knew she was a first year so it put another first year in here too. But wait.. That didn't make sense.. Not answering his question right away, Munelisa opened her mouth to ask something.

"Excuse me, but are you real?" The girl looked the guy up and down from his slightly coloured back hair to his shoes, he seemed real enough. Once she had finished looking him over what she realized how rude she had just been.. And how incredibly stupid.

"AH! I'M sorry!" She said bowing her head quickly, as a sign of apology and to hide her embarrassed face. Sometimes she spoke without thinking first, then it ended up getting her into trouble.

"Nice to meet you Brent Raven.1st Year Mihael, Cousin of Illusion Rayne and sadly Kel Elliot. My names Mun." Munelisa said repeating his introduction and peeking up at the guy named Brent. "I also am a first year Mihael." Continued the girl before lifting one of her fingers up to her mouth, and biting on it nervously. The first person she had met here at Hogwart's and she had gone and asked if he was real.. If he really was real, who knows what he thought of her now.

[Brent Raven]

Brent bursted out laughing when the girl asked him if he was real. Well that was the highlight of his day. Of course he was real, maybe alittle strange in alot of ways. But completely and utterly real. The girl quickly appologized after maybe figuring out what a peculiar question she had asked him. Brent wasn't even hurt by the question instead he desided to make fun of it. "You know, if you think I'm not real. You can always poke me in the side. I've been told from time from time that doing that might help." he said with a grin.

"Yeah.. Well you can cut off everything from my introduction past Brent. If it TRUELY amuses you, you can call me Brenty.. Most do, well most girls anyways." Said Brent, his random act of talking. Wow, he normally doesn't go into one of those till later. Good signs for a interesting conversation if Brent was going to have it his way. "Nice to meet you Mun. Interesting name... So where are you from?" he asked her. Brent always met new Mihaels. They seemed to have more Mihaels than any other house. Why was this. Because people we're creative that's why.

[munelisa]

The girl rose an eyebrow as he burst out laughing, Munelisa let her finger slide out from her clenched teeth. Red teeth mark imprinted in her index finger. She smiled awkwardly at first, at least the guy wasn't freaked out or insulted by her earlier question. Shifting her weight slightly to the other foot she opened her mouth talk again.

"Rather have the benefit of the doubt." Munelisa stated, pausing before continuing, "If I did poke you and my hand went right through you, I would be way more freaked out then I would be pretending you are real." It kinda sounded like she still accused him of being unreal, but whether he was real or not shouldn't really matter, right?

"Brenty." The thirteen year old made a funny face, "Sounds a little weird, mind if I stick with Brent?" She asked, shrugging her shoulder. 'Brenty' sounded like something you'd name a dog.. Or a bread brand.

"Thank you," She smiled before nodding, she rather favored her nicknames more then her full real name. Sometimes people figured out the play on words that her father had created with her name. "Ahm.. I was born in Brazil.. But my uncle lives in Ireland.. and thats where I grew up." She had not remembered a thing about Brazil.. being a baby when she left.

"What about you, where abouts are you from?" She asked, finally lowering her hand back down to her side. Completely forgetting that she had a singed sleeve end and burnt wrist.

[Brent Raven]

"You can call me anything as long as it's not, something completely random like Rover. Or something to do with spiders like Spiderman..." Brent said with a grin. He hated spiders, he didn't like being called anything to do with a dog, because of him being a werewolf. But Brenty was just something that stuck with himself and his friends. Well Symantha and Illusion called him Brenty. That was a population in Brents mind.

"You have me there. If I were to poke something that wasn't real and I saw it. And I know I saw it. I'd like pass out. Which is highly un-manly and uncool. Which I'm both.. At some point of the day. You just have to get me at the right time." Brent said with a crooked grin. It was his humor that was comming out. Wow he really needed to get out more often spending to much time inside was getting to him. Or was it this room? It was the room, if Brent had to blame anything other than himself.

"Italy. Bari, Italy. I've lived there all my life it was right near the ocean, I used to go swimming there all the time. Until most recently. Now I'm living between France with my Aunt and two cousins, or one of my cousins adoptive father in Scottland. If you want me to make that less confusing, don't count on it. My family is a mess of confusion. I think it's my familys goal to make life like that." Brent said with a grin.

"That's cool you lived in Brazil, sure you don't even have to remember anything about it. You lived there. So when people ask where are your starting grounds, you can say 'I'm from Brazil' even though you only spent a few weeks and or months there. Well that's how my cousin see's it. Well one is from France, so she's proud to be from there, yet she can't speak the language. Then my other cousin, she's from Singapore, China, she's not very nice."

"Red rover red rover, send someone over." Munelisa recited, remembering the childish game where there were two teams each team had all its players link hands. Then one team would call someone on the other side's name, and that individual would have to run and trying to break the link. If they made it through they went back to their own team.. If the linked hands were too strong that player had to become part of that team. Then the process started all over again. "Remember that game?" She asked Brent, looking up from the short flashback.

"You not like Spiderman?" Munelisa asked, a little surprised. "Dude, he swings from buildings like Tarzan and does that cool shooting web thing." The Mihael immitated the web shooting wrist movement. Her middle finger and ring finger folded over.

Munelisa couldn't help but grin at what he said next, "Yeah.. And I'm Brad Pitt." She laughed slightly as she replied to his manly and cool comment. Her smile soon turned into one of confusion, trying to figure out why she had mentioned the name Brad Pitt.. Instead of any other celebrity.

The thirteen year old was trying to follow his family tree on her fingers, pushing them up and down for different things, "Yeah.. That was extremely confusing." Mun said glancing down at the pattern her fingers had formed. Shrugging she clapped her hands together, intertwined the fingers then pushed them out in front of her, stretching the joints.

"But.. Italy, France and Scotland. I've never been to any of them.. Your quite lucky yourself.. I heard that it is so nice there." Munelisa let her hands drop back to her side, tapping on her thigh subconsciously.

"I suppose." She grinned before continuing. "But that would be almost like cheating. And as for your cousins, I haven't met them.. So can't say if I agree with you or not." Munelisa shrugged slightly, what could one do when she had only met one other at school.
