Introduction
Welcome to the Valley Reform Academy. This is a private boarding school that's considered the "dumping grounds" for difficult teens. The Academy was created in 1959 by General Malcolm Riverton. Riverton served in World War II, after the war, he retired and began training in the military. However, his passion lay in education and working with teenagers. He didn't want to create just another military school and instead, researched some of the world's most renown private schools. He then combined the disciplinary techniques of military school with the strict, competitive academic demands of the private schools to create an enriching boarding school for teens who were considered "troubled" or "unmanageable" and would provide them with not only the real-life, character building skills military school offered, but also the focus and hard work skills that private schools offered.
The school is considered an alternative to juvenile detention so alot of young offenders are sent here. It's a private school so only those who's guardians can afford to pay for it are sent, although some are sent on scholarships. Scholarships are difficult to get--these are usually reserved for few students who have a teacher or school that believes they have high potential but lack the necessary discipline to achieve anything and with parental consent are sent here. There are about 600 students (grades 9-12) from all over the world on an average year. This is NOT a school for kids who cannot keep up academically. It is extremely demanding and competitive.
The classes are extremely demanding and require a passing grade of 75% in each course. Students take a variety of courses, starting with the core compulsory courses: English, History, Science, Math, and physical education. Each course offers a wide selection of classes to choose from as well as several electives. Students are required to take 6 courses each semester (totaling: one English, history, math, science, P.E each as well as 7 electives).
All P.E courses are 1 year in length. The P.E courses are designed to teach students to direct their emotions into a healthy outlet. The Martial Arts that are available not only teach combative training but also provide healing, bring balance and teach students how to manage their emotions. However, there is also a strict code against using what they learn in class outside of the classroom. Violence is NOT tolerated at the Academy and if students abuse their training, not only will they be expelled but could possibly face criminal charges as well. To reach the advanced levels of these programs, not only do students have to pass the training but also must maintain an 85% overall grade average.
Students are also required to see a counselor once a week to deal with any academic pressures and the issues that brought them to the Academy.

Teams are assigned different responsibilities and are rotated each week in order to teach every student the different essential life skills.

Free Time: Students can earn an extra hour of free time at the end of the day a variety of ways such as: maintaining a 95% overall average in their classes for 1 month (and once grades fall below that, the extra time is taken away), a point system of good behavior (and also works in the opposite-bad behavior takes away free time and adds in extra chores), and various achievements made through extra circular activities.
Punishments:
The Isolation Cabin
There is a cabin a mile from the dorms and beside the faculty dorm. If you receive 5 negative points, you're sent to this cabin. There is no electricity, no running water, food is brought to you, a private teacher teaches your classes and you have to remain in the cabin at all times for 3 days. There is a guard positioned outside the door that keeps watch (to make sure you stay inside, no unauthorized visitors come, and that you remain safe). You aren't allowed to participate in any extra circular activities (and should there be punishments for missing a meeting/practice etc, you'll also receive that punishment (eg: if you miss more than 2 practices in a sport, you're "benched" for the next game/competition)).
Detention (4:30-5:30 pm):
If you're more than 5 minutes late for a class, you receive detention that day. Marked .5 a point
If you're late more than 2 times in a week for the same class, you get a week of detention. Marked 1 point
Incomplete homework will receive a "0" and 2 days of detention to complete make up assignment and/or study. Marked 1 point.
Extra Chores:
Are assigned to you if you receive 3 negative points. These extra chores are given by the team leader of your group and usually involve doing someone else's share of the work.
Grades:
If you're current grade in a class is below 75%, you're given 2 weeks to improve the grade (this involves extra assignments given by the teacher). If by the end of the two weeks you're still failing, you meet with your parents/guardians, the dean, teacher of the class and your counselor to discuss what needs to be done to pull the grade up and reasons for the mark.
Despite the Academy being very elite, most of the teachers are corrupted. The Dean, General Cornappilis, is an older retired military general who hates teenagers and views the school as a way to "set them straight". He's mean, overly strict, and borderline abusive--that is when he's not smiling for the parents and convincing them that he loves children and will guide their's like they're his own. He's extremely two-faced and believes that for most of the students at his school, the only way to set them straight is by beating the individuality and rebellion out of them. The students are only allowed to refer to him as "Sir".
Some teachers agree with Cornappilis' approach while others abuse their power in different ways. Some will accept bribes of a variety from both students and parents to give them passing grades on assignments. However, there are still some teachers that genuinely want to help the teenagers and become more than just teachers, and are mentors and advocates for their rights.
The students also find ways to break all the rules. Whether it's through paying off guards, teachers or fellow students or blackmail, students still find ways to sneak off campus, party, fight, etc. There's an underground gang of students, most are 12th graders. Only two freshmen are initiated each year and initiation is usually extremely dangerous. This group manages to find ways to deal drugs, smuggle alcohol onto the campus, participate in a fight club, and other illegal activities.
Monthly field trips include: going into the city, camping, hiking,

"yes please. Do you have any Sam Adams? I love that it's so good. But I could never have it because 'it's something a lady shouldn't drink'." she said in a Girly voice and smiled at him.
"ohhh so this is trick the guy you said id get along with huh." she smirked down at the guy with the flousy girls under his arms. Mackenzie looked at drew when he said for trick not to make a big deal out of it. What did he mean? What would he do? She thought.
She turned to drew and grabbed onto his arm and jumped up and down excitedly. "oh ooo oh oo hey Drewie! What about girls!? Can I wrestle with you? Or anybody." she smiled excitedly looking up at drew who was way taller than herself and bigger in his muscular stature. She looked up at him with innocent eyes and smiled a sweet looking smile at him, a genuine one too.

"No, I've been here since I was 8. Good guess at Korean though, most people think I'm Japanese. It gets quite irritating sometimes." She ran her fingers through her short hair and ate a spoonful of yogurt, then looked at his food, of which he had picked to pieces but not really eaten.
"You going to eat that, or just pick at it? It's not health, you know?"

Andrew narrowed his gaze at her, "don't call me Drewie," he said slightly annoyed, "you can call me Drew, Andy or Andrew if you want." He sad more gently and the other boy came over and handed her her beer.
"So um... Greg wants to meet with you tonight about that um...thing..." he looked at Mackenzie nervously and then back at Andrew, "what do you want me to tell him?"
"Looks like we're going to have to wrestle later," he winked at her and looked back at the boy, "call him and tell him I'll meet him at 7 and call Berry too and tell him he's late with my delivery. We've got customers waiting. Find out what's taking him so long." He ordered and looked back at Mackenzie. "And you... there's a few things you need to do before I can allow you to hang out here. You interested?" He asked, trying to think of an initiation that would be appropriate for her.

"oh ok," he smiled and took a bite of his fruit cup and blushed when she asked if he was going to eat or not. "I'm a slow eater," he laughed, "and not that hungry..." He swallowed and looked around, "so what do you like to do? You said you were in dance? What kind?" He asked, switching the subject and trying to eat more.

Then the boy who Andrew gave orders to and he obeyed them like a lap dog, he came back Over and gave Mackenzie her beer. She sipped it and swallowed it delicious taste. She looked up at Andrew when he said theyd have to wrestle later.
"Awh man I really wanted to though." she made a pouting face and giggled to herself batting her eyelashes innocently.
Then Andrew said something about she had to do some things. "what kind of things Andrew. Never mind I don't care! I wanna do anything you want me to do Andrew. " she smiled an stood next to him looking up at him.

"Dance? I'm in ballet and contemporary. Not that interesting really... I like to read, Umm, Listening to music. I like to keep busy. I don't know what I would do if I weren't doing so many subjects." She giggled and finished up her yogurt. He was really skinny... She wondered if he just wasn't eating because he was anorexic, But she knew better then to ask.
"What about you? What are you interested in?"
"What about you? What are you interested in?"

He felt bad for chiding her, but he had a reputation that he needed to uphold and he wouldn't get much respect with a nickname like Drewie so it was safer to nip it in the butt. He didn't mind that she was so eager to please, it made his job easier. People who wanted to do their own thing and challenged his authority were more difficult to control and they were everywhere at this school.
"Well... tell me what you're good at. I like to use people's natural talents--they enjoy it more and I have a feeling you're going to be pretty useful around here." He said with a smile. The boy walked away, pulling out a phone and whispering into it. "Common," he took her over to the other door that was near the tv and opened it up. Inside there was a small office like space with a desk and locked cupboards. Behind the cupboards were weapons, drugs, and money that Trick and Andrew had brought in. He pointed to the chair across from the desk and sat down on the corner of the desk. "So, tell me what kind of skills you could offer this group. We're involved in some...questionable deals and I'm looking for someone to help keep the school out of my business."

"Dance is great. I love ballet. My dad owns a bunch of opera houses and my adopted brother has a bunch of ballet studios." He managed to finish off his fruit cup while she talked, "I know what you mean about keeping busy. I swear the only time I'm still is when I'm sleeping or doing homework. I love school, it's kind of my obsession. I was supposed to be graduating this year but Valley Reform has a tougher curriculum so I decided to do 11 again. Besides school though... hmm I love to read. I'm really into psychology and religions. I like music too and chess and I love to run." He rambled, "what kind of music do you like?"

She listened to him speaking, nodding slightly, watching his mouth move as he spoke. She was never really interested in dance, it was more something her mother wanted her to do. She rested her chen in her palm, but sat up straight again when she heard, "I was supposed to be graduating this year but Valley Reform has a tougher curriculum so I decided to do 11 again."
'So you are ment to be in grade 12 this year? You dont look any older then me though!" She was a little confused, biting her bottom lip, trying to work it out, "So that would mean... I'm confused..." She pouted a little then smiled.
"Psycology is very interesting. I would love to be able to look at someone and know what they are feeling just by examining their body language... Religion isn't really my thing though... Too many wars caused over it." "I like music too and chess..."
"You like chess? I'm in the chess club. It's pretty cool. Oh... Music genre? Well, K-pop mostly. I like most Korean music. But I guess I like some classical and Jazz too. I like to listen to Classical music while I do my studying. It helps me concentrate."

Mackenzie was looking down at the ground slightly ashamed. She looked up happy at drew when he asked her what her talents were. She thought for a moment wanting to get every detail down that she could of everything she was good at.
Andrew then took her hand and lead her too what looked to be his office. Wow hes got everything he's so professional and important I love it. She thought to herself.
"well Im good at persuading men and causing distractions. That's pretty useful. And I can take a beating if worse comes to worse. I know how manipulate people and I'm great at reading people like their actions and I know how to user hands and mouth in necessary ways." she winked and smirked at andrew.

Egan blushed and chewed his lip, "I'm 15 and I skipped grades 9 and 10 so last year at school, I was in grade 11. My dad gave me the choice of graduating earlier and going to university sooner or I could go to an advanced school and graduate only a year earlier." He explained and listened to her talk. "I like chess, but I didn't have time in my schedule to go in the chess club. I'm already in the swimming and debate clubs. That's cool, I don't know any Korean music. I mostly like classical and jazz too but also older music, like 40's. So what else do you like?"

Andrew's jaw twitched as she talked abut what she was talented at. He smiled and nodded, "then I think you'll be pretty helpful around here. I have a little problem right now. I've been trying to arrange this shipment for some time now but they put a new guard on duty that watches the area where it comes in. I need someone to distract him tonight for about an hour or two while we bring it in and so he can get out without any problems. If you do well, I'll make sure no one fucks with you and that you always have a place here. But...if you fail... there's going to be some issues. Think you can handle it?" He asked, his eyebrow raised.

Mackenzie listened intently to Andrew's proposal of her job or task that she would have to carry out in order to be accepted and protected in this new school. She thought about it. 'Hmmm I guess there's always the possibility that I could get the guy to have sex with me and keep a close eye on the clock. But that would make me wayyy to vulnerable. And could hurt my rep here if some guys here found out that I slept with them for free. Hell no only if someone's life depended on it then I'd have sex. Anyway hmm I could get him to go to a bar or go to a place far away and get him drunk. Yup I think I can do that instead.' She contemplated all the possibilities in her head about how to complete it but just went that she would get him to go somewhere far from the shipment site and do what she could without getting hurt from there.
"I can do it. I might be kinda vulnerable but I can pull it off without a sweat. No worries. I have a plan already in my head for what I'll do with him." She winked and smirked at Andrew and leaned back in her chair staring over his desk at him confidently. "And then after, then you and I can wrestle." She laughed smiling at the thought of wrestling with him.

((I'm posting because I might not have time tomorrow. I will not be able to post Friday-Sunday as I'm going to be out of town and not near a computer. So please pardon my delay))
Andrew smiled, "good, I'm glad to hear it." He winked when she said they could wrestle. "I'm not asking you to have sex with him by the way. Just keep him distracted, take some alcohol with you if you want. I can even give you something to slip him to knock him out for a bit. If something goes wrong and he hurts you--let me know and I'll take care of it. I like to take care of the people in this group and if someone fucks with you and does something you don't want them to do--though I don't doubt your ability to take care of yourself, I'll take care of them for you. Safety isn't something you'll have to worry much about. I'm just glad you're interested in doing it." He stood up and finished off his drink and went to a cupboard and pulled out another bottle. Sitting down, he poured himself a glass of whiskey and lit a cigarette, inhaling the smoke slowly and swallowing half of his glass of whiskey. "So what grade you in anyway? I'd like to know more about you but don't feel like you gotta say anythin you don't wanna."

"You're 15? I'm 15 too! I skipped grade 10. I'm probably not as smart as you, but I am smarter then most of the dummies around here, and at my old school. At my old school I did grade 12 work because the grade 9 work was too easy..." She realised she was waffling on a bit and blushed, ruffling her short hair and listening to him talk. She heard about his schedule and moved to her bag, pulling out the even more stuffed diary and placing it on the table. She spoke as she flipped it open.
"Well, I like.. I don't know actually. I like Tai Kwon Do, Hanging out with friends... Boys. Well, I mean.." She blushed a little and smiled. "Not you. I've only just met you... And from what I've seen and heard, you are most probably gay-- But if you're not, I'm sorry!" She pushed her timetable over to him, changing the subject.
"Umm, This is my time table... Its pretty chocablock..." And she was right. The timetable was full to the brim, much of her free periods taken over with electives and extra curricular subjects. She was busy most lunches too by the look of her timetable.

Mackenzie smiled and sighed in relief as Andrew said she didn't have to have sex with the guard. "Oh thank goodness. I didn't really wanna have sex with him anyway. I'd be to vulnerable and I might not be able to get away after. And I was thinking of drugging him but I didn't know hoe you wanted the job to be done. If you wanted to keep it quiet and go totally unnoticed or if you just wanted it done under any circumstances." She said looking at him giving him a smile and she laughed thinking of just hitting a bottle over the guards head if she even was allowed too But that was no fun in doing that. Mackenzie listened to the deal if she needed help or got hurt that Andrew would try and protect her. She smiled at the agreement and nodded happily. "I'm just glad you'll protect me if something goes wrong, but I'm sure nothing will. But then again these kind of guys can be unpredictable so theres always a chance." She winked and smirked at Andrew. He poured himself another glass of whiskey and lit a cigarette. Mackenzie took a long drink from her beer and held it in her lap. "Sure ask away. and first off I am in Grade 11 by the way." She smiled and took another sip from her bottle.
