Kanjie Aditorin's Story

Good. The seniors have finally, arrived on their first day. I pushed my glasses up to the beginning tip of my nose. I looked at my watch, 8:05. Everything was on schedule. Perfect. "Scott!" I yelled to my son, leaning against the fence.

"No need to yell...I'm right here." He replied, rolling his eyes.

"The Day Class students are arriving! You know how first days are a little hectic, remember to keep those Day Class girls in line! I'm sure they'll be rioting to see the Night Class students, they arrive right after Day students do."

"Dad- I know what to do."

"Just making sure." I answered, turning my gaze to Fullshire.



The academy was simply amazing. Unfortunately, is was my duty to keep every little thing in line at this school. Without the help of the Disciplinary Committee, I'd probably be killing myself at this instant. Over the summer, the halls had been cleaned, dorms were empty, and complaints vanished. It was simply paradise. Now I had to go back to Hell. Well, that's why I became principal, right? Scott pushed the black steel gate open with a click of the key. I stepped in front with Scott at my side, as the familiar faces of the Day Class students surrounded us. I had already spotted the trouble makers. "Welcome back to Fullshire Academy everyone!" I exclaimed. The response was a dull silence. One, because the girls just wanted to see the Night Class students, and two, some of them were afraid to respond because of well, my harsh tolerance. "I'm happy to see you again! As you know, it's your last year here. Our year will be filled with memories, or punishments. You decide. You probably still remember the rules, but it's time to go over them as always." I was answered with purposed sighs and foot tapping. "Our black uniforms must be worn when you attend the Day Classes. Curfew is 10:30 P.M. I will personally send a Disciplinary Commitee member to recieve you. If this happens, it's one week detention with me. Let's just say, you won't enjoy it. You will stay in the Daylight Dorm- only! If we have spies that sneak out past curfew to the Midnight Dorm, it's one week detention. When school is over at 3:30, you can either stay in the academy, in your dorm, or travel to our nearby small town, Gavinsville. Is that clear?

A boring, "Yes..." Was the answer. I stepped aside to let the students through. Some reluctant, some hyper to get in. Whispers rang through the crowd. And yes, it was mostly about the Night Class.

"Oh, I have been planning to talk to Hunter! He's so charming in his uniform."

"Hunter? I prefer Luciano. So dreamy..."

"Kanjie is the one for me!"

Pathetic. I nodded to Scott as he traveled toward the Midnight Dorm along with Genesis to prepare for the stampede of girls that would be arriving just to get one glimpse of the Night Class. Many boys tagged along also, to marvel at the girls who belonged to the Midnight Dorm. I looked at my watch again, 8:15. The Night Class students approched the gates. They appeared with the exact faces from last year. Alexandra, Kanjie, Ai, Luciano, and Hunter. "Welcome back everyone." I said, with an honest smile. "You know the rules, the Day Class is waiting for you."

The year had begun.

Fullshire Academy. One of the highest ranked private schools in the nation. It was my brains that got me here, and thank God for whoever created scholarships because I'd still be stuck in a trailer cleaning up my father's beer bottles. Fun. I stepped out of my old, banged up van. Yes, of course it was one of the hottest cars I mean, who wouldn't want it? Right... I tugged on my black uniform and curled my blonde hair behind my ear. The gates were beginning to flood with students. I scooted up to the sidewalk as whispers ran through the crowd. I searched the students for Kanjie, I guess he was arriving next. I mean, he was part of the Night Class. Silence fell over the group as Principal Wilkins approached the gates. I pressed up against my toes to rise above the students in front of me. I could barley see anything, but I recognized Scott in his usual position who was leaning against the gate with a icy stare on his face. Are we prisoners or something?
Mr. Wilkins went over the rules, it happened every year because it was like he was dictator. I guess we actually were prisoners. My stomach grumbled. Had I really forgotten breakfast? I was thinking to hard again. Focus.

"Curfew is 10:30...Disciplinary Committe...Gavinsville..." Mr. Wilkins just kept going on, and on. I slightly yawned until I was hit in the back with a purse. The stampede! I completely forgot!

"Midnight Dorm!" A voice squeaked in the distance. "Shit..." The girls began to push and pull and fill into the gates, I was trampled on at my sides and my new uniform boots were stepped on many, many times. After I regained my composure, I took a deep breathe and walked through the gates of Fullshire Academy. The perfect private school. Rose bushes and newly planted trees lined the outer walls of the building. The two Dorms were seperated on each side. On the right, The Daylight Dorm. On the left, The Midnight Dorm where girls were screaming to watch the Night Class pass by. Why were we seperated? No one knew. I looked at the Disciplinary Committee pushing them back with all of their strength. Sometimes, I couldn't blame the Day Class girls. The Night Class students were truly beautiful. I couldn't help but stare at them entering through the gates. Alexandra with her long silver hair, Luciano and his charming looks, Hunter with a wide grin on his face, and Ai with her delicate body and soft look. Then there was Kanjie, pretty much my best friend. You could never tell what he was thinking... He always had a sullen look on his face. I guess that's why I could talk to him so easily, he was calm... and quiet. Criticism? Nope. Not a word out of his mouth. His long hair trailed behind his back as he blended in with the rest of The Night Class.

"Look! There they are!"

"Even more beautiful than last year..."

"He's so looking at me! Isn't he looking at me?"

"Yeah right, ho dosen't have the sense to look at you."

"Hey!"

The whispers of the crowd surrounding the Midnight Dorm sprung into a chant of love. My thoughts were interrupted when the sound of the bell rang. "Late on the first day? Great." I hurried to my homeroom, with Mrs. Revez.

Scott Wilkins

I leaned against the fence and tapped by fingertips against the iron gates.

"Scott!" My father yelled, pulling me out from my thoughts.

"No need to yell... I'm right here." I rolled my eyes.

"The Day Class students are arriving! You know how first days are a little hectic, remember to keep those Day Class girls in line! I'm sure they'll be rioting to see the Night Class students, they arrive right after Day students do."

"Dad- I know what to do." Sometimes, I don't think he trusted me. I had practically grown up in this school, but I still couldn't get through his thick skull. I rolled my eyes and took my foot off the fence, watching the Day Class students approach. "Here we go..." I grabbed the silver key out from my pocket, and placed it into the keyhole. "The first entry of Fullshire." I turned the key slightly as the steel doors burst open. I put they key back into my pocket and turned to see my father handing out the same rules every year. The familiar faces of the academy yawned and sighed. They were as bored as I was. I looked at my watch. "Where is Genesis?" I slightly shrugged and crossed my arms. The excited faces that couldnt wait to walk through the doors were overwhelming, what was so great about the Night Class? I had to admit, everyone including myself had fallen for their beauty or charm. But what did it matter? We could never see them, and they were not in our reach at any given moment. Maybe it's the fact that no one knows why we have two seperate classes. The fact that it's a secret because the Night Class is full of vampires. I stepped to the side as the stampede of girls flooded through. "Time to get to work." I murmured, taking a step towards the gate.

"Not yet Scott." My father said, grabbing my shoulder. "Aren't you forgetting the Night Class?" I turned my gaze towards the Night Class that began to approach. The faces of Kanjie, Ai, Alexandra, Luciano, and Hunter appeared.

"Welcome back, you all know the rules..." My father and I said. I smiled slightly as Ai gave a smile back. I followed behind the Night Class, heading towards the Midnight Dorm to push the crazy fans back.

Hunter Jerard

"I have to say, I did miss this place over the summer. I bet the girls missed us even more!" I exclaimed to the group, laughing a bit. I popped a couple of tablets in my mouth stepped up to the sidewalk. The Day Class had already dispersed, and most were heading towards the Midnight Dorm. Well of course, to admire me, oh- and of course the rest of the group. "Just like we remember it right?" I elbowed Luciano and met Scott's eyes. "Committee crap..." I'd always despised Scott. He was so serious, and behind that fake smile I knew he despised us too.

"Welcome back, you know the rules." Principal Wilkins said. I smiled back to Principal Wikins and shot Scott a look as Ai smiled at him. "I don't trust him Ai..." I whispered in her ear quietly. I pushed forward into the familiar gates of Fullshire along with the Night Class. The rose's sweet scent filled my nose and the girl's cheers filled my ears. "Well, isn't that lovely?" I said to Alexandra, smiling. The group was practically family now. I had the lightning of the group, Alexandra, the quiet one, Kanjie, the serious one, Luciano, and the clown, me. Who would want a better family? We approached the entrance of our dorm. Scott and Genesis had pushed the girls to the side and made a pathway for us. Most of the Night Class was silent, but I took advantage. "Hi girls! How was your summer? Did you miss me?" I blew the crowd a couple of kisses and winked at a few.

"Hunter! I love you!"

"I missed you Hunter!"

"Our summer was great! But we're more concerned about yours!"

It was paradise, until the thought of blood creeps in.

"Thanks for arriving, Genesis. Why don't we get to work?" I shifted over to the other side of the girls and began to make a walkway for the Night Class. "Girls, we don't have make this hard..." I mumbled.

"Scott why are you such a killjoy?"

"Yeah! You're so serious!" The girls exclaimed. My response was silence and pushing the girls back even further. I looked over to see Genesis, struggling I was.

"There they are!"

"Kanjie, I missed you!"

"Hunter, how was your summer?!"

"Hey Alexandra... looking good."

"Luciano, smile for us!"

"Ai! You look stunning!"

Pathetic. I turned my head slightly to watch the Night students pass. Hunter gave me a stern look. I think we've always despised each other, opposite personalities I guess. The girl's screams rang through my ears as the doors finally closed. "Get to your classes girls. You're already late." I said as the girls dispersed. I turned towards Genesis. "They're worse than last year! I guess it's just their last chance to see them." Genesis was like me- I think. She was hard to read in many ways. We had been partnered for a while, I had always admired her actually. Her willingness to the committee was outstanding. "Nice to see you again." I said shoving my hands in my pockets. "We'll have a year ahead of us..." I turned around and began to walk towards Mrs. Revez's class.

Alice Cartwright

Mrs. Revez began to chatter. "Welcome, everyone!" I began to drum my fingers against the side of my journal. It was homeroom, the class you went to gather your thoughts in before moving on to the next period. Most students talked, I didn't really have anyone to talk to but myself. I flipped the cover page of my journal to a white, clean sheet of notebook paper and began to sketch.



One of the roses that lined the bushes of the academy. I sighed as the bell rang. Onto biology. I took notes, many of them actually. My dream was to go to Yale; one of the most achieved colleges. Who knows what would happen.

"The science behind Biology is to create a statistic of..." The teacher went on. My hand hurt from writing when the bell finally rang. Math seemed to fly by, it was probably the most boring class to me. I hated numbers. Then onto Lunch. I scooted my tray across the iron rails to collect food, or what seemed like some sort of soup. I turned my eyes to the cafeteria, many cliques were together. Too bad I couldn't sit with Kanjie, they didn't eat with the Day Class. Of course they didn't. I sat at the nearest table across from some brown headed boy about my age. He looked familiar, I think his name was Valentine. I looked down at the soup. Disgusting. Might as well eat. I took a sip from the spoon.

"Ouch!" I exclaimed. The hot soup had entered my mouth, causing me to jolt my spoon out. Hitting Valentine. My eyes widened and my tounge burned. "Accidents...happen? Heh.." I said awkwardly to Valentine. My face turned red as I waited for his relply.

Alice Cartwright

I watched Valentine yawn as he glanced in a direction. "Nice meeting you again Valentine, see you soon." I stood up and brushed myself off, gathering the soup to head towards my next period.

Art. The best period I could ask for. This is the place where I didn't care if someone was looking, I just let my emotions flow through the paint or pencil. I twirled my hair around my fingertips, listening to the teacher carefully.

"I'm sure you have made many first impressions today, now transform them onto this piece of paper." She proceeded to hand out white paper. "I wan't to see what you can do!" She set the timer for us to begin, my hand began to circle around the paper.



It was the sketch of the rose I had drawn earlier, but more detailed. I guess it was my first impression. It's beautiful, but its throwns can cause you to bleed. I smiled slightly, placing it in my journal. The other classes were quick, history was OK, but at least in english I could get some of my thoughts out. I began to hum to myself lightly as the bell rang. I rushed my ways through the halls, escaping the main building. Fresh air. It filled my lungs as I paced myself to the Daylight Dorm. There were still, many rooms to choose from. I picked one that was on the end of a hallway, that had a large window looking out at the opposite dorm. I changed into some regular clothes, a comfortable, loose t-shirt with some denim shorts. My sneakers tapped against the sidewalk, and I headed towards the Midnight Dorm. Maybe Kanjie was out, so we could actually talk.

Alice Cartwright

I smirked. "Oh sir Kanjie, I was just here to get an autograph!" I laughed and stepped out of the shadows. I couldn't help the fact that I ran up to him and embraced. For not seeing him all summer, it felt like forever. I pulled back to study him. He still had the same light green eyes and that pale skin. He was still the same Kanjie. Good. I didn't like change. "How's the first day been Kanjie?" I leaned againt a tree. "Mine has been- interesting..." I mumbled. I turned my glance towards him. Standing there, with a stare on his face. "Including flicking my spoon at someone's face."

Alice Cartwright

I laughed at his comment about the spoon and nodded slightly. I had always known the forest was Kanjie's favorite place. I quickly ran up behind and followed him behind the Midnight Dorm, into the forest. Even though I wasn't even supposed to be close to the Midnight Dorm, I felt safe. I felt the breeze blow my blonde hair back, as we entered through the pine trees. Many flowers covered the forest, and the soft smell of nectar filled my nose. "I can see why you like this place so much..." I looked up at the stars and closed my eyes for a second. "It's calm." The soft buzz of crickets filled my ears. I turned my eyes to Kanjie. "What's this thing you want to show me?" I said, raising my eyebrows.

Alice Cartwright

"Don't peak." Kanjie's soft voice spoke. My eyes were covered by his hands. I smiled. I opened my eyes to darkness. I pondered about what he could be showing me in my thoughts. A rare plant? No... The lake? I laughed, "Kanjie what are you-" His hands lifted gently, and my eyes began to open. The scent of roses was strong, different colors of red and white, even yellow. A drooped willow tree's leaves hung above a small pond. I dropped my fingertips down slowly, feeling the breeze. I was speechless. "Wow. Just like a painting." I took my shoes off and threw them to the side. I danced around the rose bushes while laughing. "Kanjie, you really have a sight for beauty." I glanced around the setting, stopping my twirls. I turned my eyes towards Kanjie, staring at me. "Thank you Kanjie. For taking me here." I looked towards the pond while the stars shown down onto the dew of the roses. "It's calm." I fell backwards, landing on my back to take a deep breathe and look up at the night sky. My toes squirmed through the grass, feeling the soft prickles. I closed my eyes, still smiling. "Kanjie don't just stand there! Join me!" I scooted to the side of the pond, making a needed space for Kanjie. He sat down, looking around as I was. "I like the white ones the best." I pointed to a group of white roses. "They're pure, and full of life. Though they're small, the roses still manage to live on." I turned towards Kanjie, my hair blowing back. "What's your favorite color of a rose?"

Alice Cartwright

I looked at Kanjie. Through his beautiful green eyes, I saw pain and suffering. Like he was burning inside. My eyes pointed down to the rose, white tips with red as a base color. I took the rose carefully, admiring it. "You're right. It does remind me of snow." Although it was summer, it would soon come to fall and then onto winter. My favorite season, just because of the snow. Or maybe even the school holidays. "Thank you Kanjie, I will forever treasure it." I smiled slightly, my gaze still fixed on the rose. I looked up to Kanjie as the bell suddenly rang in the distance. I covered my mouth. "Curfew! I- I gotta' go!" I stood quickly, and ran around the pond but stopped in my tracks. "I wish the best for you, Kanjie. Have a nice evening, thank you again." I turned around, running off towards my dorm. I took a smell of the rose, soft and sweet. "Help Kanjie to be happy..."
