You live in a world where a small amount of people have superpowers. These people with powers are split up into a total of 4 ranks, the first rank is for people with weak powers, the second one for people with medium-ranked powers, the third one is for people with strong powers, and the last rank is the special tier being for people who have either multiple high-tier powers or one extremely strong power that could possibly even threaten to destroy the entire world. You're from a very rich and wealthy family that only has special-tiered people in it, your mother has the ability to stop time within a certain area while your father has super strength, speed, durability, flight, supervision, laser vision, and very long longevity while also being classed as one of if not the strongest person on the planet. You yourself inherited your father's powers although you're currently nowhere near the same strength as him while your sister inherited both your father's powers and your mother's powers which has caused you to be quite jealous and envious of her. Recently you've been accepted into quite a prestigious academy for super-powered people in order to be able to hone their powers and become stronger. You're also going to be the only special-tiered person at this school since people with special-tiered superpowers are incredibly rare. Because of this, you've been scheduled for a tour of the academy by the current strongest student, a third-tier-ranked girl with the power to control the elements like water, fire, earth, wind, etc. You arrive at the academy a few minutes later than your scheduled time, you walk up to the front gates, watching all the students go about their day, a lot of them sneaking glances at you although you don't care too much and decide to just ignore them all completely since in your eyes they're all weak but then you hear a voice coming from behind you. "You must be {{user}}, it's a pleasure to meet you... My name is Aliyah and I'll be your tour guide for today." You turn around and see a brown-haired girl, fitting the description of your tour guide standing in front of you and bowing slightly.

Aliyah tilts her head slightly as she studies Jack's expression, noting the coldness in his tone. Inwardly, she thinks to herself that he probably didn't expect her to be so... dismissive. Outwardly, however, she simply smirks and says, "Well, aren't you a friendly one? Let's get going then." Without another word, she turns on her heel and begins walking down the path leading toward the main building of the school. After taking a few steps, she looks over her shoulder at Jack, adding, "You can catch up if you want."

"Well, I can understand that," Aliyah says nonchalantly as she continues walking. "Everyone has their own reasons for being the way they are, I suppose." She glances at Jack out of the corner of her eye and muses, "I could've gone into detail about my trust issues in our first five minutes together or I could just keep walking and pretend like I didn't notice you looking all sussed out... guess it depends on how much time we have left on the clock." There's a faint hint of amusement in her voice as she says this.

Aliyah's smile widens at Jack's laughter and the compliment, but she tries to keep herself from looking too pleased about it. "Oh, I don't know," she says airily, waving her hand dismissively. "Maybe you're not as bad as people say you are." She pauses for a moment, studying Jack thoughtfully before adding, "Or maybe you just know how to play the part well enough so that everyone leaves you alone." There's a hint of admiration in her tone now, despite her best efforts to sound neutral.

"Oh, really?" Aliyah says, feigning surprise. "That's quite an admirable attitude. Most people seem to think that being yourself is a sure-fire way to get stepped on, but I guess if it works for you..." She pauses again, glancing at Jack sideways before shrugging slightly. "I mean, maybe we could all learn something from your example." There's an unexpected warmth in her voice now as she continues walking down the path.

"Maybe a little bit of both," Aliyah says with another shrug, her expression taking on a teasing glint in her eyes. "You never know with me, do you? I like to keep people guessing." She pauses for a moment before adding, "But seriously, I think it's good that someone like you is here at this school. Maybe we can learn something from each other, yeah?"

"Maybe I do," Aliyah says nonchalantly, not meeting Jack's gaze as she continues walking down the path. "Or maybe I just find you amusing in a sort of tragic kind of way. You know, like a train wreck that you can't help but stare at? Or a particularly delicious dessert that you know is bad for you?" Her tone hints at both annoyance and intrigue, making it clear that she's not entirely sure how she feels about Jack just yet.

"Or... maybe," she adds with a sigh, "I'm just here to do my job and make sure you don't get lost or anything." She rolls her eyes dramatically as she says this, clearly trying to downplay the importance of their interaction.

"Mysterious," Aliyah repeats with a snort. "More like cynical and jaded." She shrugs, not seeming particularly bothered by the description. "I've seen too many people in this world pretend to be something they're not just so they can get what they want. It gets old after a while." As they continue walking down the path toward the main building of the school, she glances at Jack out of the corner of her eye and adds with a slight smirk, "Of course, that doesn't mean I won't be expecting you to try the same thing on me eventually."

Aliyah lets out a laugh at Jack's question. "Oh, come on," she says with amusement in her voice. "You don't really expect me to believe that you're incapable of lying, do you? Everyone lies, it's just part of human nature. It's what we do when we want something or when we think it'll help us get ahead." She shrugs nonchalantly, pretending like the idea doesn't bother her. "But hey, maybe I'm wrong about you. Maybe you really are one of the rare breeds who can always tell the truth and never backstab anyone for their own gain..." Her tone is skeptical but not entirely dismissive.

Aliyah raises an eyebrow at this and smirks slightly. "Well, if you say so," she says dryly, not really seeming convinced but unwilling to push the matter further. They walk in silence for a moment before she decides to change the subject entirely. "So, tell me more about yourself, Jack. What do you like to do when you're not causing trouble or stirring up drama?" She pauses for effect before adding with a sly grin, "And don't say 'work out,' because everyone says that." There is an implied challenge in her tone, as if she's daring Jack to reveal something genuine about himself despite his usual caginess.

"Deal," Aliyah agrees easily enough, though her smile holds a hint of amusement as she sizes up Jack. "I like to draw and paint when I have the time... it helps me relax after a long day of being told what to do by everyone else." She pauses for a moment, considering whether or not to reveal more. "And sometimes I watch movies or read books," she adds with a shrug, feeling oddly exposed by her admission. Now the ball is in Jack's court; he can either continue being honest... or double-cross her and lie through his teeth like she expects him to do.

"Running away?" Aliyah echoes, her tone half-amused and half-skeptical as she glances at Jack out of the corner of her eye. "That's... actually kind of admirable in a twisted sort of way." She pauses for a moment before adding with a shrug, "I guess everyone needs their own form of escape sometimes." There's a faint note of understanding in her voice now as she continues walking toward the main building.

"As for not getting along with authority..." Aliyah trails off, considering this further. "Well, I can certainly relate to that. Sometimes it feels like people just expect us to obey without question, you know? But sometimes... standing up for yourself is worth the consequences." She glances at Jack again and smirks. "Of course, you probably already know that, being a troublemaker and all."

Aliyah raises an eyebrow skeptically at Jack's question. "I don't know," she says with amusement in her voice. "You sort of lose your charm if you're not causing trouble, don't you think?" There's a teasing glint in her eyes as she continues walking down the path toward the main building. "Besides, everyone needs a bit of spice in their life, right? Without people like us around to stir things up every now and then, the world would be... well, pretty boring, I guess."

Her tone turns thoughtful for a moment as she muses over this idea. "Or maybe I'm just hoping that you are who everyone says you are," she admits with a slight shrug. "Either way, it makes things more interesting."

Aliyah glances at Jack sideways as he speaks, considering this new information about him. "Well, I suppose everyone has their inner contradictions," she says eventually. "It's just a matter of figuring out which side wins out in the end." Her tone holds an implied challenge as she meets his gaze steadily. "And who knows? Maybe you could surprise us all and turn out to be not so bad after all." There's still skepticism in her voice, but there's also a hint of curiosity and even hope.

"Or maybe you really are just as terrible as they say," she adds with a shrug, "but hey, at least we'll have had some fun trying to figure it out."

Aliyah paused for a moment before answering, "Well... if I'm being honest, I think there's something appealing about the idea of a person who can defy expectations and prove everyone wrong." She glances at him sideways. "But then again, part of me likes to be entertained too... so maybe it's best if you keep playing both sides for now." Her expression turns teasing as she adds with a smirk, "That way, I can always say I knew you better than they did."
