Your PLTs

Zane hurried to Lady Violetta as she was finishing the Bulletin Board.
" What is this note about? You could have either asked or told me to report instead of simply sending a note." she exploded.

Lady Violetta raised one eyebrow up and held out her hand.
"I do not know what you are talking about, Zane. I don't even allow paper on this planet and I won't use paper for anything." she informed Zane calmly as Zane placed the paper in her hand.
"The color of the paper should tell you who it came from. A simple elegant scrawl, perfect handwriting, glittery paper. This is an order from The Creator. I'd heed it. I can't go up again so you will have to go on your own. I hope for the best for you. I do not know what to expect since I have not been selected to go through one yet."

"ME!"Zane squeaked. "I will go because she sent it."

"How do you know that The Creator is a she and not a he?" Lady Violetta asked softly for as far as she knew it could be either.

"I only know what I know. Thank you for clearing it up for me. If Brother Thomas happens to come by to check on me. tell him that I am fine. I hope to see you again." Zane took the paper back and placed it in a pocket in her cloak as she left.

Lady Violetta simply shook her head as Zane left since she had no idea why Brother Thomas would ask about Zane anyways. Both of them were a bit odd. At least Thomas Skywalker, Avalon and Krystal were somewhat sane. Most definitely more so than the other two!

'Air," Tom thought to himself, 'I need air.' he as frantically swimming around near the floor of the lake, searching for... God knows what. He had been under the water for a minute or so, the boys that threw him in there probably long gone, and his vision was fading.

Then, he saw it: a painting, depicting a castle, at the bottom of the lake. Blue, sparkling currents were circling around the picture, and Tom reached out to grab it... Only to, in a matter of seconds, be sucked in and appear some odd feet in the air.

Tom spat out some water, then looked down, before falling a dozen or so feet onto the ground. "AHHHHHHHHHHH!" He shrieked as he fell, thinking he was about to die. But, he didn't.

When he landed, he was still soaking wet and began to cough. Looking up, Tom saw the castle from the painting, and mutters "Fuuuuuuuuuugh..." Before his head hit the grass and he passed out from exhaustion.

With a smile, Lady Violetta turned away from Zane and headed out the door for someone had 'fallen into' the academy. Whoever landed needed some help. Lady Violetta hurried out to see who was there.
"Thank you, Grand Doors. Lets see who it is.... A young man!"
Lady Violetta hurried over and knelt next to the young man. She gently placed a hand on his shoulder and gave him some healing. Then she leaned back to see what would happen.

Tom looked up slowly, trying to take it all in and process what was happening. Somehow he was transported to the castle in the painting, and now it seems that he's stuck here. He was scared; he obviously wouldn't know anyone here, he was stuck here for who knows how long, and, the first problem, the person who came to him was a girl.

He tried to say something, but of course couldn't. But, after a few seconds of trying, he did manage to say a simple word: "H-hello."

[Aisling]

"Good day, young man and welcome to Caldwell's Academy of Magical Talents and Draconic Arts. My name is Lady Violetta and I am the Headmistress of the Magical Talents and one of the teachers. How are you feeling now? Well enough to move? Because there will be hopefully a few more students 'falling in'. Let's move off to the steps, please." Lady Violetta spoke as she stood up. She had a lavender dress on with a darker velvet cloak on.

Kieran locked the doors to make sure that no straggling customers would try to enter the shoppe even though it was clearly marked, “CLOSED”. That happened far too often.

Sighing nonchalantly, he stuck a lollipop into his mouth and looked at the painting his manager had left for him. She’d left it on the floor, propped up against the baseboard of the wall she wanted it hung up on. Honestly, it didn’t look like quite the right fit for this place. It was a cool painting, sure, but what did a medieval castle floating amid a bunch of clouds have to do with ice cream? And why was it so sparkly around the edges?

Kieran moved closer to the painting and knelt down, to get a better look at it. The blue sparkles were seriously getting a little bit out of control. And what exactly did that plaque say at the bottom? Caldwell’s... Academy…

Kieran rocked forward on the balls of his feet, squinting to read the rest of the words. Only, he rocked a little too far forward, and grabbed the painting to regain his balance.

He didn’t get a chance to finish reading the plaque, because as soon as his hands made contact with the painting, he felt a strange sensation, like his whole body burst apart in a blaze of light and was put back together again in a completely different place.

Kieran blinked dizzily, noticing that he was now on his hands and knees, and his hands were pressed against a surprising amount of spongy green grass. Somehow, the lollipop had remained intact in his mouth. The painting he'd touched was nowhere to be seen. Come to think of it, the ice cream shoppe was also nowhere to be seen.

Tom picked himself up, rubbing a fresh bruise on his head. Trying to ring his green sweater out, Tom asks (in the same nervous tone from earlier): "D-did you s-saaaay magic aaaaand d-dragonic a-a-arts? If t-t-thaaat's the c-case, then I d-doooon't want aaaaany p-p-p-part of t-this... Can I g-go h-home?"

Lady Violetta smiled softly as she spoke.
"I am afraid that once The Painting chooses you, you can't go back. Look over there.... there is someone else who just fell in as well. Let's go meet him. Or if you prefer, simply stand on the steps and after a bit we shall go inside for an Orientation Lecture." Lady Violetta spoke then she went to the the young man that had 'fallen in'.

"Good day, young man and welcome to Caldwell's Academy of Magical Talents and Draconic Arts. My name is Lady Violetta and I am the Headmistress of the Magical Talents and one of the teachers. May I have your name?" she asked as she kept an eye on the other one.

[ariplotter]

Kieran stared up at the lady who had introduced herself as the Headmistress of the castle-like building that was looming behind her. Off to the side, there was a boy who looked a little younger than Kieran, and seemed just as confused and nervous about being here.

“Uh. Hm.” Kieran stood to his feet and brushed himself off, making sure that everything was still intact. “I’m Kieran. Did I just fall into a painting?” he asked, gazing around to get a feel for his surroundings.

"Yes, you did. Not everyone remembers that bit of information. I suppose that you are a very clear thinker. I do hope that you are not hurt in anyway." Lady Violetta spoke softly then turned her head towards the Grand Doors to see that Thomas was coming out of the door.
"Thomas, I am glad that you could join me. We have two students so far. This is Kieran. I am not sure what the other lad's name is. He is a bit shaken up. I think that he is leery of Magic and of Dragons. Could you see to him please?" she asked.


Thomas glanced over to the lad and nodded.
"Welcome to Caldwell's, Kieran. We will talk more later but I am the Head Dragon Master. If you happen to see my dragon, NightStalker fly in, don't be afraid. He likes to tease the new students. Stand tall and tell him to go see me." Thomas is always short on words and long on strides which he was using to reach Tom who kinda looked in shock.

"Hello there, lad. Welcome to Caldwell's Academy of Magical Talents and Draconic Arts. My name is Thomas and I am the Head Dragon Master here. Overhead is NightStalker, my show off dragon. Are you feeling any better yet?' Thomas' voice was warm and soothing as always.


"Let's stand by the Grand Doors. What kind of magic do you like or have you ever thought about magic?" Lady Violetta asked as she lead the way over to the steps.
