Shermie made her way to the others, holding her wounded shoulder. as she stepped into the line, she began to lose herself in studying her surroundings. Realizing she was next to speak to the lady, Shermie diverted her attention towards the lady, supporting her wounded shoulder (from the fall), she steps up. "Shermie Chaos ma'am"

Shermie nodded and turned her wounded shoulder towards the lady. "Might I ask where I'm at?" Shermie had no idea of whats going on. "First I touch a painting and now I'm here, and I'm not sure what "here" is." she spoke in and almost quiet tone.

And still absolutely nothing was explained. At this point Ayaka was getting slightly annoyed since she was just working on a school project with a friend before seemingly falling through one of the paintings in the museum. Speaking of which, she now wondered if Ami and her parents were worrying about her. The lady did say she plans on explaining everything, but what did she mean during orientation?

With that in mind Ayaka waited a minute to see if anyone else was going to speak. When it seemed no one was she decided she will. "I guess I'll be next. I'm Ayaka Rain. It's nice to meet everyone."

Life sucked it up

(cause he is a vampire, get it.)

He spoke to get it over with, he was planning to play along as best he could, so he could get back home sooner or later, he thought.

"I'm.. Life Capello, Last name's Latin, First one's a b**ch." "nice to meet you all, I wanna go home."

Life's sentences almost ran together at the pace he spoke, he was not looking forward to making friends. He was confused and a little agitated about his slumber.

Irena saw some people introducing themselves so she simply considered that this was what the cool kids were doing "Irena Sealgair" she casually stretched her arms "I take this place isn't on our good old Earth, considering no school there would actually call me into it" She had already deduced the place was a school, it smelled like one and she knew the teacher type pretty well from the constant transfers she went trough

Jerome was very confused but he completely throw his confusion out the window. He wasn't the only person to fall from the sky so he wasn't the only one lost in the moment. He listened carefully to each person who stepped forward and spoke their names. If Jerome was now gonna be surrounded by these people for god knows how long, he might as well get some info on them. When he felt the time was right he stepped forward. "My names Jerome Aura, I guess its a pleasure to meet you all." He said in a nonchalantly way. Jerome didn't know why but some of these people didn't seem to be human. He started to slip into his deep thought like he always does and attempted to place his hand under his chin. When he did so his hand brushed passed three strips of materials that felt like metal. Jerome had no clue his physical appearance has been altered a bit. He didn't want to break into a panic so he stayed silent rubbing his cheek ending with the same result of feeling metal.

Lady Violetta decided to head on into the Academy.
"All right everyone. Please follow me to the Lecture Room on the Class Room side of the Academy." she spoke as she lead them into the Academy.

The Grand Doors opened wide to allow the students into the Academy.

Thomas waited to be last for some odd feeling that he had. He was not sure of what this feeling was about but it was definitely there.

Mystique was definitely curious and she hurried after Lady Mystique. She now was not thinking about being in her nightgown.

"To your right is my office and Thomas office is on the left. When we get a Doctor, his office will be ahead. Next to the infirmary is the Grandfather Hall Clock. He will keep all of us on schedule. All doors are the sliding type to conserve space. Through this door and to the right.Dining room is ahead for your information. Through these doors is the Class Rooms. Here is the Lecture Room." Lady Mystique walked into the room.
"Everyone find a seat in the front row except for Thomas. Thomas please stand off to the side."

((All maps are in the first post!))

Life walked alongside some of the other students, he was unsure of this but for some reason, intrigued.
Life had many questions, where did this place come from, where were they, etc etc.
He took a seat, nearest the door. And waiting for his fellow 'classmates' to take their seats.

Ayaka followed the headmistress with the others. So far it did seem they all fell through a picture just to attend a different school for some odd reason. One of them she noticed sat nearest the door. She half wondered if he just wanted to hurry out of here when this so called orientation was over, or if he just sat in the first place he saw. Thinking about it, wasn't he the one who waved slightly with his hand halfway up.

She didn't think much of it before because she was too busy trying to make sense of what's going on. Ayaka decided to just walk over and sat in the chair next to him. If she was going to be stuck here she thought she might as well start trying to make friends of some of the others here as well. "Hi, you said your name is Life right? Nice to meet you."

This had been the first class Irena had been interested in years, whatever it was it would probably have to do with magical rabbit hole paintings and that was really interesting. Still, old habits died hard and as soon as she got into the class she slipped down to the back row and sat there, stretching her hands and feet and making herself comfortable.

Life was surprised that someone had spoken to him, he look at her almost sheepishly.

@Ninkitty

"Hello, your name is Ayaka if I remember from our introduction."

"I don't typically make friends."

He tried to keep contact but his nature just kept him looking slightly away. Glancing back go her every couple seconds he spoke.

"Nice to meet you though, Ayaka. I like the ears, it's different, Unique even."

Jerome followed the mistress and tooken notes down on every site she pointed out to them on the way to the classroom. As he entered the room he couldn't help but run his face again wondering why did these random strips of metal appear on his face. Jerome decided to check more into it when he has time for now he sat in the front row seat that was farthest from the entrance. He'd try his chance at small talk but then again he wasn't much of a people person and he'd rather listen to music. Sadly he didn't bring it along before falling into the painting. So he just sat there getting boreder by the minute.

Tyler followed the lady like everybody else since everyone wants an explanation for what was going here at the moment. To be honest Tyler was half asleep so he didn't get everything she pointed out while walking to the classroom. Then when they got to the classroom, Tyler went to sit down in the back row since he sat there in all of his years of education at school. Still Tyler was already close to sleep since he was looking at the cook book the whole time without taking a break. He deciding whether to take a quick nap or not but he didn't want to miss what the lady might say so tried really hard not to fall asleep.

Elizabeth had been so adamant on seeing this supposedly haunted house, but when she finally found herself there, she was less than impressed. There were cobwebs
everywhere, and it all appeared to be in a dilapidated condition, but that was about it. Look beneath common, face fears, and one can see that cobwebs are not a sign of the lack of life, but of the flourishing of it. Even if the place was indeed t inactive, Elizabeth felt no fear.

Perhaps the most interesting thing in the entire room was a painting, unblemish by the hands of time. She felt herself drawn to it, which Elizabeth felt to be a good omen. At the bottom of the painting was the title of the painting, Cadwell's Academy of Magical Talents and Draconic Arts. There were so many questions that flew into Elizabeth's head. Who ,for instance, was Cadwell? Elizabeth,however, was faced with a more pressing dilemma. Why was she falling through the painting?

As she fell through the sky, her calmness surprised her. It wasn't as if she was expecting to survive, but rather, a neccessity made it so. Her fall was surprisingly graceful, if a bit rough. She had little time to collect herself, as a fairly large group was already on their way to somewhere else. Putting aside reason, which would dictate that she should be skeptical of unknown forces of which conspired in such a way as to result in herself falling from a painting, Elizabeth collected herself and hurried after the bunch.

Shermie silently followed the other students. She had already knew that Life was a vampire just by his scent, yet she wasn't bothered by it. She continued to remain quiet as they walked. Shermie then pulled out a very ancient black book, as she opened it a gust of wind released itself, blowing through Shermie's hair. The book itself gave off an eerie vibe to any of those unfamiliar with the presence of death.

@Diabolic

Ayaka wasn't sure if he was just shy or not as he kept looking slightly away as he spoke. He did say he doesn't typically make friends though. "Thanks," she said at the compliment about the ears. She took off the headband to show him why it looks like she has cat ears. "They aren't real though. I just grew up around cats. I don't know, I guess I just feel closer to them wearing this?"

Lady Violetta felt the wind from somewhere and instantly she knew that she had a student that had something that she should not have. Now she had to think of what to do about it. It was some lost arcane book of The Dark Arts but which one? Only time will tell.

"Young lady in the back row, please come to the front so that we may start the Orientation. I need to check the boxes and then Orientation will begin. If you have not moved by then, I will have to move you myself." Lady Violetta spoke then went over to the boxes.

Life looked at Ayaka as she explained something. About her cat ears, he was kind of paying attention. He heard.

"thanks" "not real" "grew up with cats"

Probably all he really needed to. He was not listening because he was perring from the side of his view, at Shermie. He thought what SHE thought of him as a fellow vampire. Some he knows can be territorial, or confrontational. usually one is in any area at a given time.

He looked back at Ayaka, pretending to look interested and like he heard all she said.

"I like cats, I had a calico once, at my cousin's house. It's name was Reae"
