More after-midnight fire drills? Not this time. When the students and staff gather outside while they may notice their school isn't on fire, the Hundred Acre Wood most definitely is

TIME TO ACT LIKE BIG DAMN HEROES

[kisstheprince]

[Another drill was the initial reaction, but he always checked and made sure that Ariel was safe and outside first and foremost. He smiled at his communicator as he checked in with her via the video-link, but his smile turned to a look of horror as he stared at the west fence. There were flames flickering -- not inside but OUTSIDE. And that smile? Definitely fire. He could barely believe he hadn't smelt it while on the inside of the building (good filtering system?)

A second later and he rushed into action. There were hoses for putting out fires in the Academy (and gardening) but would they reach all the way to the fence?!]

SOMEONE! Help me with the hoses! They're all around the building - help me detach them to make one big hose!

(OOC: I imagine we can get a couple of people on the hoses, and the KH peeps will be using magic 'n junk too? 8d)

HOSES IT IS .... idek if I can put Astrid in here, so uh pretend she is?

[imadeabridge]

[Fire? Noooot a probelm for this guy. Vin had already run outside at the sight of flames, ready and willing to help- so when he heard Eric yelling, he was quick to join him.]

Just show me what tah do, ahl help. [He looks calm, but that's just his work face.]

You sho can. 83

[kisstheprince]

They're all around! I'm not sure how many we'll need but get as many as you can-- get more people so we can do this faster! Do you have any water-proof tape?

[The latter part occurred to him when he was trying to fit two of the hoses together. Of COURSE they didn't screw together perfectly. >:|]

Awesome. Just debating whether to confuse myself or not. XD

[imadeabridge]

[You certainly asked the right guy, Eric. Digging through his pockets, Vinny extracted quite a few oddities- but no water-proof tape. He had an abundance of duct tape for whatever reason, but that would surely fall apart within short amount of time.

Still, better than nothing, right?]

No, only thees. [Without waiting for an answer, Vinny taped the two pieces of hose in his hands together, shoving one roll of the tape at Eric when he was done. Now it was time to fix some more pieces together, and hopefully pick up some helping hands on the way.]

TIME TO ACT LIKE BIG DAMN VILLAINS

[oftheblacksand]

[Yeah. Guess who WASN'T paying attention to the fire drill again?

This guy.

But everybody will be too busy with the fire to notice, right? Right?

Yeah.]

MOAR ACTIVITIES -- For the fliers and the kids.

[destinyentwined]

[While Eric worked on the hoses, Norrington went into action as well.]

I need two volunteers to scout the grounds and assure that the fire has not spread beyond the fences! [preferably persons who are fast and/or can fly.]

Those of you under the age of twelve: Go inside and start soaking towels in the bathtubs. If worse comes to worse we will need them! If you see any fire on the inside, come outside and inform us immediately! Use the rooms closest to the ground floor - do you understand?

Not a kid, just fyi.

[sonotthe_drama]

[Flying? Pshaw. She's been waiting for an opportunity to do something like this, Norrington. Lack of wings isn't gonna stop her.]

I can do that. [She speaks up immediately, voice determined. So who's coming with her?]

[destinyentwined]

Scout the East side, and come back immediately. Take someone with you!

[very_practical]

[Jane rushes back inside to start soaking as many towels as she can.]

[burn8seconds]

[Well with everyone looking into stopping it, Axel had some reprieve before there was investigation on how the fire started.

Surely someone was bound to accuse him of it sooner or later and, if he got involved, his control over fire was going to be obvious.

But for now, he sat on the roof of Hoover, watching critically as other students try to put out the fire themselves.]

Alright, Kitty, prodding it is. XD

[imnot_laughing]

[Roxas wasn't one to sit around and watch while everyone helped out, so he'd been prepared to help with the hoses- maybe even find some way to help Mr Norrington. Possibly gain his approval. That would be nice.

Instead, lo and behold, he'd seen Axel, sitting on the roof of Hoover and seemingly watching everyone below.

Hadn't Mr Norrington said to stay on the lower levels?

Worry for his friend outweighing everything else right now, Roxas made a beeline for Hoover, heading quickly for the roof.]

[burn8seconds]

[Axel was taking in who was doing what job. He saw a few professors leading the charge and send a few of the younger kids back inside where it was safe.

He even saw a mess of blonde hair that was familiar before realizing that it was his roommate's doppelganger. So far, he actually hadn't spotted Roxas and briefly wondered where he was in the chaos below.]

[imnot_laughing]

[It was a little difficult finding a safe way onto the roof- he uh, hadn't really been up there before- but once he'd managed to climb his way up, it only took a second to spot Axel's familiar figure sitting a few metres away.]

Axel? Why are you up here?

/edit due to my own derp.

[keyblade2face]

[fjkhsajkh kjdsj is Ven's first reaction to being rudely woken up. And then again when he see's the fire.

The second will be to throw a nice blizzard spell or three at it at various points as he darts along along the fences. He'd be quicker on his Keyblade Glider, but the down side of that was no keyblade to wield and no magic. hfgdjkhs.

Unless he could find Terra or Aqua.... or even Vanitas, though the last... wasn't really an option-option.

Any other help in fighting this would be much loved, too.]
