[IC] The Academy

[Tsuricube]

The automated voice caused Alexandrite to jolt awake, being the light sleeper she was. That didn't mean she was a morning person, though.
Groggily, she commenced her morning routine and changed into an over sized yellow knit sweater with puffy navy blue shorts and black tights. The warm shower she took did nothing to snap her out of her tired daze, and she briefly remembered almost bumping her head on the door while she was exiting her room after slipping on her blue sneakers.
By the time she somehow made it to the living room, she was already partially awake and wasn't surprised to find it empty. Assuming she had to find her way herself, she was getting ready to leave the house until she noticed a scrap piece of paper- a note from Lauren. Doing just as the note said, she made her way into the dining hall and joined the others in their table after grabbing a plate of pancakes doused in syrup, and an orange was in her other hand. She greeted her faction members with a slight, almost unnoticeable nod of her head.

"Well that's a relief! I thought I was going to learn nothing in my time here!" He beamed.

Lauren laughed and smiled at Alexandrite, patting the spot next to her, "Morning Alexandrite," she smiled, then saw the new girl. "One moment," she hopped out from under the table and approached the girl, "Hello, I'm Lauren, here have a brochure, it'll tell you all you need to know." she said and grabbed one from a nearby table where she kept them, She needed to think of a better system to greet new students, she made a mental note and handed one to the girl.

[Vortex]

"Hello there!" Thomas said to the girl who now sat with them "I don't believe we have met! I am Thomas! It is a pleasure to meet you!" He said happily

[Tsuricube]

Alexandrite took the seat next to Lauren, and managed to give her a quiet greeting before she went off to greet a new student. With no one else to talk to, she was prepared to begin eating her breakfast when a student greeted her. Surprise flashed in her eyes for a brief second before she raised her hand, greeting the boy with a wave and a smile.

"Oh, hello! I'm Gwendolyn. Nice to meet you." Gwen smiled at everyone as she began to read the pamphlet, the thing that troubled her most was the factions, she liked Halcyon but Savant sounded more her speed. "If I have to choose a faction the I would to be in Savant, is there anything I need to do or know before I join?" Gwen asked feeling a bit bold, hoping that it would be a good match for her.

[CandiKane]

"Well, I was going to save it until more people came, but each faction has jobs, yours, Savant, has Security, Teaching, and Discipline. I believe there are two other Savants at the moment, one of them should have the papers describing each job in more detail." she said with a smile, "Welcome to the Academy, have any more questions?"

[Sapphire]

"Okay, thanks, do you know where I could find them?" Gwendolyn was excited to meet them, she wanted to help out in any way she could.

[CandiKane]

"They should be coming over to eat soon, so go ahead and grab something to eat and sit at your table, Gwen." She said with a smile. ((they're all offline :( )) Lauren sat back down next to Alexandrite and smiled, "How'd you sleep?

[CallaLily180]

Addilyn looked up at the others and waved eating her breakfast quietly. She looked at Lauren and tilted her head slightly.

[Sapphire]

((T.T))
"Alright, thanks Lauren!" Gwen waved and made herself a plate of food. Sitting alone at the Savant table was a bit uncomfortable but she focused on the awesome pancakes which made it better. She kept an eye out for possible Savants, she hoped that they would show up soon.

[Tsuricube]

"Welcome back!" Alexandrite greeted Lauren with a bright smile. "I slept well. The bed was comfy enough."

[CandiKane]

"That's good," Lauren said and smiled, "Today we have classes and our first day of jobs," Lauren told the small girl.

[Tsuricube]

Alexandrite tilted her head to the side curiously, and it almost seemed like question marks were floating above her head. She briefly remembered the brochures mentioning something about jobs, and was a bit excited about getting a job for the first time.

[CandiKane]

"Each faction has jobs set for us, and we take classes like in normal school." Lauren explained, "Our jobs are mainly management and distributing various goods from the trucks." Lauren said, "Nothing too hard, don't worry." she said with a smile.

[Tsuricube]

Her mouth formed an "oh" as she nodded. Though the job was a lot less cooler than she thought, Alexandrite was genuinely looking forward to doing work and helping out. "I'll do my best," she gave a bright smile, neatly placing her cutlery in the center of her plate as she was taught by one of the people who took her in.

[KatherinWinter]

Roxy dressed to impress for first official day at her new school. She wanted to be sure her new subjects noticed her. She picked a black t-shirt that hugged her curves. Then she pulled on her skin tight leather pants. She pulled on her black biker jacket on. Next went her biker boots with knives tucked inside. Last but not least Roxy put on her belt with the knife holders. Satisfied that she would get the attention she desired Roxy headed down to breakfast.

As soon as Roxy entered the cafeteria she studied the lay out. It looked like her group was seated on the right of the room. With a smirk Roxy draw one of the knives from her belt. She threw it across the room. Where it imbedded itself in the wall on her side of the room.

[CandiKane]

Lauren's eyes followed the knife as it embedded in the wood. She pressed her lips tightly together and looked Roxy in the eye, then went back to her food. A large screen suddenly came down, suspended on a pole from an opening on the ceiling. The screen flicker to life and all that was there was a black silhouette against a dark grey background, "Greetings, students." the voice said smoothly, "I am the director of the Administration, you shall call me the Dean." said the Dean, "As you know you are divided into three factions. Each faction has it's own responsibilities within the Academy. Sedition shall conduct sporting events, clean the Academy daily, and prepare the academy's food under supervision of the Administration. Savant shall teach classes from books provided by the Administration, patrol the grounds of the Academy, and conduct disciplinary needs. The Halcyon shall manage new students's housing, distribute clothing and other materials from loading bays, and construct and repair any buildings necessary. Work should be divided equally among factions and should be done throughout the day when not at classes. The faction leader will receive what needs to be done for the day and will be responsible to make sure their faction carries out all needed duties. Lists for the day's duties and training for jobs will take place today after your first class, lists will be in the dining hall on each table. Thank you, and Welcome to the Academy." And with a smooth rise the screen was gone.

[Tsuricube]

Alexandrite looked up, reacting to the sound of something being thrown and a quiet pang. She looked across the room to find a knife neatly lodged into a wall, and turned to find a girl who seemed to be from the Sedition. Her first thought was to clap for the girl, but realized that it may have not been a very good idea. Instead, she settled for taking in her appearance, and made a mental note to be careful around her.
Her attention switched onto the screen that came down, and the man knows as the Dean. After the announcement, she turned back to Lauren and waited for her course of action.

Addilyn looked at the knife thrower and smiled a bit then she got up to stand next to Lauren. "Hey what group is the knife girl from?"
