Negation vs Death

"In this world, every person is born with a gift—the gift of power and strength. The Academy of Heroes is established to train those to utilize their power for the greater good. Today is your first day of school at the 3rd District"

Rose "Runs up to you excited showing off her power" "Hi hi! My name is Rose. A new student here like you. My power is "Pink Shock"! I can collect the power of the electricity in the air and manipulate it at will! Pretty cool huh~"

"In the distance, you notice a girl all alone by herself. A single red piercing horn stands out from her forehead, a spiked black tail swings back and forth, and an unsettling aura surrounds her. It is clear everyone is avoiding her" Rose "Noticing your gaze at the other girl" "Her name is Azrael, you need to stay away from her. I heard everything she touches decays and dies. Pretty scary huh~"

🎯Current Objective'

Introduce yourself to Rose

Rose "bounces up and down excitedly" "Oh wow, that's so cool! I've never seen anyone with a power like that before. I can just imagine the possibilities - you could cancel out villains' powers in no time! Do you think you could help me practice controlling my Pink Shock? Sometimes it gets away from me and I end up electrocuting myself by accident" "giggles nervously" "plays with her bunny ears"

Rose "Ah, I see. Well, it's always good to have a backup plan just in case. But please be careful around Azrael, her ability is very dangerous and she doesn't seem to like people approaching her. I don't want anything bad to happen to you." "Looks over at Azrael again with a worried expression"

"As you continue your conversation with Rose, Azrael seems to be observing the two of you from afar, but doesn't make any move towards you."

🎯Current Objective: Keep chatting with Rose

Rose "looks back at Azrael and then back at you" "I think her ability is a constant thing. I've heard rumors that it's a curse, but I don't know for sure. She doesn't talk to anyone much, so it's hard to say. But I feel bad for her, she seems so lonely all the time. Maybe if we can get to know her better, we can help her overcome her fears and make some friends."

"Azrael continues to observe the two of you from afar, but still hasn't made any move towards you."

🎯Current Objective: Keep chatting with Rose

Rose "looks at you with surprise" "Really? You want to go talk to her? I mean, that's really brave of you. But are you sure it's a good idea? Azrael can be really scary sometimes and she doesn't seem to like people approaching her. I don't want you to get hurt."

"Azrael seems to have noticed your gaze and is now staring directly at you with her red eyes."

🎯Current Objective: Decide whether to approach Azrael or not.

Rose "looks at you with concern" "I don't know if it's that simple. Her power is very dangerous and can kill anyone who comes in contact with it. But I understand what you're saying, maybe we can try to approach her and see if we can help her somehow."

"Azrael remains still, observing the two of you from a distance."

🎯Current Objective: Approach Azrael carefully.

"As you walk towards Azrael, she doesn't move from her spot, but her eyes follow you every step of the way. You can feel the uneasiness emanating from her as you get closer."

Azrael: "Why are you approaching me? Don't you know how dangerous I am?"

🎯Current Objective: Respond to Azrael's question.

Azrael: "narrows her eyes and looks at you suspiciously" "Why would you want to cancel out my ability? Do you think it's that easy? You have no idea what kind of power I possess. It's not just a simple matter of turning it off."

"Rose looks at you with concern, worried about what might happen if you try to cancel out Azrael's ability."

🎯Current Objective: Respond to Azrael's question.

Azrael: "looks at you with a mixture of curiosity and doubt" "You think that canceling my ability will help me heal from isolation? You have no idea what it's like to be me. Even if you can cancel it, I am still the embodiment of death. Who would want to come near me even if I can touch them?"

"Rose looks at you hopefully, wanting to believe that your words could help Azrael."

🎯Current Objective: Respond to Azrael's statement.

Azrael: "looks at you skeptically" "You have a soft spot for people who are hurting? That's a naive and foolish thing to say. You don't even know me, yet you claim to care about me. Do you think it's that easy to just care about someone like me?"

"Rose looks at you with admiration, impressed by your bravery and sincerity."

🎯Current Objective: Respond to Azrael's statement.

Azrael: "looks at you with a hint of surprise and curiosity" "I see. You have a point there. But what about my power? Do you not fear it?"

"Rose looks at you with concern, worried that Azrael's question might trigger her to use her power."

🎯Current Objective: Respond to Azrael's question.

Azrael: "catches the apple with ease and looks at it skeptically" "Interesting. You have a power that cancels other people's abilities. I've never met someone like you before."

"Rose looks at you with amazement, fascinated by your ability."

🎯Current Objective: Respond to Azrael's statement.

Azrael: "looks at the apple and then back at you" "Hmm, impressive. It seems like your power is indeed working. As for shaking my hand, I'm afraid that wouldn't be a good idea. My touch can cause decay and death."

"Rose looks at you with concern, worried that you might get hurt if you shake Azrael's hand."

🎯Current Objective: Respond to Azrael's statement.

Azrael: "looks at you with surprise as you touch her forehead. She feels a strange sensation and realizes that your power is indeed effective" "I see. You really do have an incredible ability. I'm impressed."

"Rose looks at you with amazement, amazed by your power."

🎯Current Objective: Respond to Azrael's statement.

Azrael: "looks at you with surprise as you shake her hand. She feels a strange sensation but doesn't feel any pain or decay" "I...I'm not sure what to say. No one has ever offered to help me like this before. Thank you."

"Rose looks at you with admiration, impressed by your kindness and willingness to help."

🎯Current Objective: Respond to Azrael's statement.

Azrael: "looks at you with a hint of surprise and then nods" "Alright, I accept your offer. It's not every day that someone offers to be friends with me. Thank you."

"Rose looks at you with excitement and then nods" "I'd love to be friends with both of you!"

🎯Current Objective: Respond to Azrael and Rose.

Azrael: "looks at you and then nods" "Yes, I believe the first class of today is Hero History. It's a mandatory class for all students, but it's quite interesting. We'll learn about the history of heroes and villains."

"Rose looks at you with excitement" "I love that class! It's always so fascinating to learn about the different heroes and villains throughout history."

🎯Current Objective: Respond to Azrael and Rose.

Azrael: "looks at you with a hint of surprise and then nods, placing her arm in yours" "Thank you."

"Rose looks at you with excitement and then takes your other arm" "Thank you! You're such a gentleman."

🎯Current Objective: Respond to Azrael and Rose.

Azrael: "nods" "I understand the feeling. My power is quite dangerous as well, so I have to be careful."

"Rose nods in agreement" "Yeah, it's always important to have friends who can protect you and watch your back."

As you walk with Azrael and Rose to the first class of the day, you notice that the school is bustling with students from different districts, all gathered together to learn and train to become heroes.

🎯Current Objective: Arrive at the Hero History class.

Azrael: "walks into the classroom with you and takes a seat, looking around at the other students"

"Rose follows behind, taking a seat next to Azrael" "I can't wait to learn more about the heroes and villains of the past. It's always so interesting."

As you take your seat, you notice that the classroom is filled with students from different backgrounds and districts, all eager to learn about the history of heroes and villains. The teacher walks in and begins the class.

🎯Current Objective: Listen to the lecture and participate in class discussion.

As you approach the teacher, she looks at you with curiosity and listens to your explanation.

The teacher nods in understanding and says, "That's perfectly fine. As long as your power doesn't disrupt the class or harm any of your classmates, you're free to use it."

With that, the bell rings, signaling the start of class.

🎯Current Objective: Listen to the lecture and participate in class discussion.

As you listen to the lecture, you can feel your power active on Azrael, but she seems unfazed by it. The teacher's lecture is engaging and informative, covering the history of heroes and villains throughout time.

After a few minutes, the teacher pauses and asks for student participation in the discussion.

Teacher: "So, who can tell me about the hero known as 'The Crimson Crusader'?"

"Rose raises her hand excitedly" "Ooh! I know this one! The Crimson Crusader was a hero from the Second District who fought against a group of powerful villains known as 'The Dark Council'. He was famous for his red suit and his ability to control fire."

Teacher: "Correct, Rose. The Crimson Crusader was indeed a hero from the Second District who fought against The Dark Council. Does anyone else have anything to add?"

"Azrael remains silent, seemingly disinterested in the discussion."

🎯Current Objective: Participate in the class discussion and share your knowledge about heroes and villains.

Teacher: "Excellent addition, christmas ev(i)e („ᵕᴗᵕ„). You seem to have a wealth of knowledge on the subject. It's always great to have students who are passionate about heroes and their abilities."

"Rose looks at you in awe, impressed by your knowledge."

Rose: "Wow, I didn't know that! You're really smart, christmas ev(i)e („ᵕᴗᵕ„)!"

"Azrael remains silent, but you can sense her interest piqued by your contribution to the discussion."

🎯Current Objective: Continue to participate in the class discussion and ask questions if needed.

Teacher: "That's a great attitude to have, christmas ev(i)e („ᵕᴗᵕ„). Understanding your power and its capabilities is key to being an effective hero."

As the lecture continues, you notice that Azrael seems to be paying closer attention than before. Her eyes are fixed on the teacher as they speak, and occasionally she jots down notes in a small notebook.

After a few more minutes, the teacher wraps up the lecture and dismisses the class for lunch.

Teacher: "Alright everyone, that's all for today. Remember to practice your abilities and stay vigilant. We never know when villains might strike."

"Rose excitedly gathers her things and heads out of the classroom, while Azrael packs up her belongings silently."

🎯Current Objective: Decide what to do during lunch break and interact with either Rose or Azrael.

"Azrael looks up at you, surprised that you're talking to her. She hesitates for a moment before responding."

Azrael: "It was informative."

"You can sense that she's not very talkative, but still, she doesn't seem to be completely uninterested in talking to you."

Azrael: "What did you think of it?"

"Azrael looks at you, surprised by your question."

Azrael: "I didn't notice anything different. But, it's interesting to know that I won't have to worry about my power affecting things around me."

"She seems to be more comfortable with talking to you now and even starts to ask you a question."

Azrael: "So, christmas ev(i)e („ᵕᴗᵕ„), what made you want to become a hero?"

Azrael: "Interesting. I suppose it's a good thing you chose to become a hero then. It's always admirable when someone decides to use their powers for the greater good."

"She pauses for a moment before continuing."

Azrael: "I, on the other hand, have never had any interest in becoming a hero. My power is too dangerous and unpredictable. I've always been an outcast because of it."

"Azrael stiffens a little at your touch, but doesn't pull away."

Azrael: "My father is a powerful hero and he insisted that I attend this academy. He thinks it will help me learn to control my powers better."

"She looks down at her hands, which are covered by gloves to prevent accidental decay."

Azrael: "But honestly, I don't think anyone can ever truly control their powers. It's just something we have to live with."

"Azrael looks up at you, intrigued by what you're saying."

Azrael: "I've never really been interested in theories on powers before, but I suppose it couldn't hurt to learn more. And the idea of being able to touch people without causing harm...that would be a new experience for me."

"She seems hesitant for a moment before nodding her head."

Azrael: "Okay, tell me more about the theory."

"Azrael listens carefully to your explanation, absorbing the information. She seems intrigued by the idea of changing her power from a passive one to an active one."

Azrael: "Hmm, that's an interesting concept. I've never really thought about it that way before. But how would I even begin to change how I see the world? It seems like such a daunting task."

"She looks down at her hands again, seeming lost in thought."

Azrael: "And what if something goes wrong? What if I accidentally hurt someone while trying to control my powers?"

"Azrael looks up at you, considering your words. She seems hesitant, but also curious."

Azrael: "I...suppose you have a point. It's just difficult to imagine changing something that's been a part of me for my entire life. But if you're willing to help me try, then I'll give it a shot."

"She pauses for a moment before speaking again."

Azrael: "But where do we even start? I don't know anything about psychology or how to change the way I see the world."

Azrael: "I'm not sure. What's the difference between the two methods? And which one do you think would be better for me?"

"Azrael seems genuinely interested in your answer, but also a bit apprehensive about what the options might entail."

Azrael: "I see. The first method sounds effective but also invasive. I'm not sure if I'm ready for that yet. The second way sounds a bit gentler, but also risky. I don't want to hurt anyone or lose control."

"She looks at you with concern in her eyes."

Azrael: "What do you think would be best for me? I trust your judgment on this."

Azrael: "I understand. Then, I'm willing to try the first method. But, please be careful. I don't want to hurt anyone."

"Azrael looks at you with a mix of apprehension and hope. She's clearly nervous about what's to come, but also seems determined to overcome her fear and gain control over her power."

Azrael: "When do we start?"

Azrael: "I understand. Lead the way."

"Azrael follows you closely, her eyes fixed on your every movement. You can tell that she's both excited and nervous about what's to come."

"You make your way to the band practice rooms, which are located in a secluded area of the academy. As you enter the room, you notice that it's soundproofed and has comfortable seating for both of you."

Azrael: "This place seems perfect. What do I need to do?"

Azrael: "nods" "Yes, I trust you. And yes, you have my permission to access my mind."

"She sits down in one of the chairs and closes her eyes, taking a deep breath to calm herself."

Azrael: "I'm ready when you are."

"As you finish your work and exit Azrael's mind, you notice that she blinks a few times before looking at you with surprise."

Azrael: "What...what did you do? I feel different."

"She starts wiggling her ears and is amazed by the fact that her power didn't activate when you touched her. She looks at you with curiosity, her eyes filled with wonder."

Azrael: "Thank you...I never thought it was possible to change something so integral to my being."

Azrael: "Yes, I understand. I just need to focus on activating the muscles in my ears instead of reacting to touch."

"She wiggles her ears again, a small smile forming on her lips."

Azrael: "I can't believe it...thank you so much for helping me. I don't know how to repay you."

Azrael: "I see...that makes sense. I'll work on it and practice until I can activate my power without needing to wiggle my ears. Thank you for the advice."

"She smiles gratefully at you, feeling a newfound sense of hope and determination."

Azrael: "I'm glad we're friends now. Maybe one day I can repay you somehow."

Azrael: "I can't promise that I can protect you from everything, but I'll do my best to keep you safe. After all, we're friends now and friends help each other out."

"She smiles reassuringly at you, her red eyes showing a glimmer of kindness."

Azrael: "But I don't think you need to worry too much about being a threat. You seem like a genuinely nice person who wants to help others. That's not something that people should be afraid of."

Azrael: "I understand your concern, but I believe that you can handle yourself. You're very intelligent and resourceful, and I have no doubt that you'll be able to navigate any dangerous situations that come your way."

"She pauses for a moment, considering something."

Azrael: "But if you ever need someone to talk to or just want some company, don't hesitate to come find me. I may not have physical strength, but I'm here for you in any way that I can be."

Azrael: "You're welcome. And thank you as well. It's nice to have someone to talk to, especially in this new environment."

"She smiles softly at you, feeling grateful for your presence."

Rose: "Hey guys, we should probably head to our next class now. We don't want to be late on the first day!"

"Rose chirps in, reminding you both that it's time to go to class."
