School of the Strange's Story

Autumn

My eyes fluttered open as the alarm rang loudly, as there was no one else in the house to hear it. I got out of bed, dressed up, and went down stairs. I started to make myself breakfast, some toast with jam. I put the toast in the toaster, then went outside to check the mail. There was a letter there that had a seal on it. I opened the letter while I walked inside. I stopped on the front doorstep, the letter had a message that I was admitted to a school, and a plane ticket to Australia. As I continued to walk inside, brown, yellow, and orange leafs trailed behind me.

(ooc- Autumn on my last post is my character name, but lets just make it the season too XD. BTW, the school is invite only, so Soren, your characters granma couldn't of enrolled her, sorry about that,I should of put it in the introduction)

Autumn

I went inside to pack my bags, when I went back outside there was a limo, this was strange. A man was standing next to an open door. No one was in the car yet, so I was either the first to be picked up, or the only one there, but as there where lots of sits, I guessed the former was correct. I stepped in the car and we drived off to the next house. After a while, the car started flying, but I didn't really care. I pulled a book out of my bag and started reading it.

(the limo is for people that don't have a proper mode of transportation, so you don't have to take the flying limo)

Autumn

The limo stopped in front of a different plane, a girl was in front of the plane, semi-naked. I didn't notice as I was still reading the book. The car door opened and I looked up. "oh...hi" I muttered, then went back to my book.

(forgot to add that Autumn is untrusting too)

Autumn

I looked up at her as she spoke. I understood almost all languages, but I didn't let her know that, so I waited until she spoke english before I spoke. "i'm good" I answered "how are you? Excited of a new school?". I felt the limo take off again as I was talking. I sighed and closed my book, waiting for her answer.

Autumn

As she spoke, I smiled. She held out her hand, so I shook it. "Nice to meet you, my name is Autumn." I said "By the way, I understood everything you said, thank you" I added, smiling. I took my hand away. As I pulled it away, three leaves fell out of my sleeve. "hmmm, that is getting quiet annoying" I muttered.

(BTW, I actually have no idea what your saying XD)

Autumn

I looked in suprise as the leaf burst in flames. At first I thought that I did it, but I could feel the power coming from Milli. "it's ok, I don't really care about it" I said. I felt the car stop. I looked out the window, and took a sharp intake of breath. The school was massive. "bloody hell" I muttered under my breath "that place is huge!". I grabbed my book, and stepped outside. I went to the boot to grab my bags, when a man came and grabbed my bags for me. "follow me to your dorm room" he said, to both Milli and me. I followed him, expecting for us to get different dorm rooms, but when he put both our bags in front one door, fumbling with a key, I was suprised. is there mixed gender rooms or something? I thought to myself. He opened the door and brought our bags in. I looked around the room, it was luxurios, with two queen sized beds, a HD 70" flat screen TV mounted on the wall, two of the most advanced computers I have ever seen, and two onsuites. "I hope you will enjoy your room, it's sunday tommorow, so school doesn't start until monday" the man said, he bowed, then left. I looked at Milli."so I guees we're sharing a room" I said.

Autumn

"hmm, oh, window, I like a view" I said absentmindedly. I was back reading my book, at quiet an interesting part. After I finished the book, I placed it down, and looked at the time. My eyes widened, it was already 7:00 PM, dinner time. As if on que, there was a knock on the door. I answered the door, and what seems like a lady teacher, stood there. "hello, you two must be the new students" the lady stated "follow me to the dining hall for dinner". I followed her to to what must be the main building. We walked up to two huge doors. the teacher opened them, inside was 100 huge tables, a hundred metres long, each. on most of the tables, people sat, students, teachers, and other people. The teacher with us left, so I went and sat at one of the tables that no one else was on after I got my food from waht seems like a canteen, but you don't have to pay. I got some roast beef, mash potato, and some water. I sat and ate my food.

Autumn

I looked at her as she was pretending to faint, I just noticed that she had fox ears pokeing out of her head, I wondered how I didn't notice that before. I continued staring at her as she walked away, then I continued eating. After I finished eating, I brought another book out and started reading.

Derek

I looked at the girl stepping of the plane. She had a tail coming out of her pant leg, but I was used to that, working at a school like this. "yo" she said to me. I saw a purple shadow sneak around behind the plane and I jumped, I hope that was my imagination. "Like what you see?" she snapped at me, I guess she thought I jumped at her. I walked to the driver seat, started the engine, and continued to the school.


(Derek is a butler like worker at the school, his 21, and has the power of flying)

Derek

"Yes I am" I answered "please get in the car... Ahhh, it seems our next student is here" I added, as I saw a young girl come up. I waited until both of them stepped into the car, then got back into the drivers seat and drove off.


Alli

The plane ride was boring. When I got off, I saw a boy next to a limo, he had a cloak over one of his arms, there was also a man holding the door open. I walked towards there, somehow knowing that it was the right limo, and stepped inside. I turned to the boy. "hi, i'm Alli" I said, holding out my hand.

As Dame sat down in the fancy limo he noticed a girl coming towards it and jumping in. As she extended her hand towards him he was shocked slightly but looked up towards her and he begun to extend his right hand out of his cloak before quickly puling it back into cover. He then just ignored what happened looked down into his lap and spoke. "Hey." Quietly and still nervously he began to wonder if she had seen his arm.

"My name is, D-Dame, Dameon Marconis." He muttered. ~She must have seen my arm, there is no way she didn't.~ "I should explain, I was born with this." Dame lifted his arm out of his cloak and showed her his huge bear limb. "I'm sorry you have to see this. Please don't tell anyone." He then let both of his hands lay on his thighs and looked out of the darkened window.

Autumn

Milli threw the blanket off me, so I tried to punch her, but I missed, as I was punching in the wrong direction. I groaned, and got up. "I hate you" I said, while changing my top "nah, not really. I grabbed some clothes, and changed in the onsuite. I came out with a white T-shirt, sneakers, and some jeans. The time said 6:30 am. I had my hands in my pockets. "so what now?" I asked


[u]Alli[/u

"don't worry, I won't tell anyone" I assured "I have a power too, necromancy, that's the reason for these seven pillboxes over my shirt, please don't tell anyone 'bout my power"

(sry about not posting for ages, I went for a walk in a huge black spot so I couldn't post from my phone)

Autumn

I finished my food and went back to the dorm alone, as Milli and Simia were still eating. I walked into the room and switched on the TV to one piece. Then I waited for Milli.

"Ok, I wont tell." Dame then stuck out his pinky finger to seal the promise but then noticed that they might not do that in other places so he withdrew it again. As he looked back out of the window the driver pulled up to the school and Dame basked for a moment in it's glory before getting out of the car. As he stood by the door he asked, "Where do we go?" In a bewildered tone.

"I'm sharing my room!" Dame exclaimed. ~I guess miss Branigans house is pretty big to have 6 bedrooms but I didn't think I would have to share with a stranger!~ Dame walked over to one of the large beds and dropped down to it leaving his suitcase by the door. "Is there not some way we can change this?" He asked puzzled by the thought of how they could force them to sleep in the same room. "Do they have privacy laws in Australia?" He continued to question the circumstance ha had been thrown into.

As Dame nervously twiddled his fingers he looked up at Alli. "I-I don't know? It must be breakfast by now. How about we go there?" Dame was still stuttering over his words because everything was new to him. It was his first time out of the UK and now he had to live here for a long time. He did not expect to have to share a room either especially not with a girl!

"Umm, I don't know. Is there not a map or something in the corridor?" Dame wondered as he pointed to the door with his human hand. ~There must be a canteen out here. I'm starving!~ Dame scratched his right arm as he often did when he was nervous as a result of the heat. He then stood up and opened his bag and begun to search around in it.

"Your brought apples! Thanks anyway." Dame muttered as he grabbed the apple with his brutish right arm. "It's a shame I'm right handed." He joked before letting out a small chuckle. ~Were like Beauty and the Beast.~

(sry I havn't been posting, my phone ran of baterries)

Autumn

''where is she?'' I half yelled. I started back towards the dining hall. I walked in, grabbed some apple juice and walked back to the table we were at. ''...did you guys...'' I heard Simia say. ''Hi guys, watcha talking about'' I called out. I had a feeling they were talking about me.
