-Leo Octavius-
Leo packed his final bag by slipping his last t-shirt in it and zipping it up, the dark green suitcase was packed so tightly it looked like it was going to explode. Leo looked at his naked room. All his stuff that once lined the walls and perched on his dresser were all gone. They were all packed away in boxes and case, ready for a trip. Leo stood up from sitting on his bed and stretched vigorously, loosening his joints and stiffness. He dragged his suitcase, along with two other boxes, out into the hallway and down the steps. He leaned his suitcase up against the shoe rack the held only three pairs of shoes. His shoes, his mothers shoes, and his fathers shoes.
"Are you all set and ready, Leo?" His mom called out to him from the kitchen where she was preparing meat that would be made into a supper for later in the day.
" Yeah, everything ready to go." Leo shouted back equally as loud. Leo walked into the kitchen to say good-bye to his mom, when he stepped in all he could smell was the mixed aromas of a variety of different spices all bunched together. "It's too bad, I'm not going to be here for dinner."Leo's mother smiled at this and turned to him with a relaxed look.
"You're not going to be here for a lot of dinners. Starting today you're going to be living in the dorms at the school till the end of this school year." I tear started in her eye and she sniffled before continuing,"Our baby is leaving us for a whole two semester."
" Mom, you do this every time. The school is just one train ride away, and I always come back for holidays, you know that. Why do you always gotta be so emotional?" Leo's mother pushed his head in her chest.
"Just make sure you do your school work, and if you're feeling anxious, just pull out you're stress ball K?" His mom worried to much, and she made a big deal out of it every year. This is the third time, and so far this one is the worst one yet.
Leo hugged his mom and started to walk out of the kitchen and into the hallway. He would have also given his father a hug, but he was always working so he was never there for moments like these. Leo grabbed his suitcases and walked out of the front door. He raised his hand to block the sunlight from scorching his eyes, than started to walked down the street towards the trains station.

-Sophie Reynolds-
Sophie looked at the map that was given to her by the bus station clerk whom she asked directions from, it was a weird map with lots of curvy roads and tons of exits."We should be here by now, but I don't see a sch-" She cut herself off from continuing as she saw a massive Victorian-esque building. It was only the front few, but what she could see, it looked like it was the size of a college. The buss stopped with a jerk and the brakes squealed lightly. The regional bus driver didn't say anything, but he didn't need to, Everybody who's stop this was had ran off it like it was cursed. As did Sophie. With both suitcase and school bag in arms she walked up the steps to her new school. Her face lit up as she saw the beautiful interior of the building. She looked down at the school map which was given to her when she was enrolled a few months ago. This too was confusing to her.
"So I'm looking for room....153, in the left wing." She looked around curiously. there weren't many people around since it was early in the day. She thought there was going to be lots of people doing as she was doing, getting their things and settling into their new dorms. She tried to ask someone for direction but they all seemed busy with something, so she quickly got dismissed. As she huffed in exhaustion she saw a little girl walking down the hallways."She seems a little too young to be here...Maybe she's starting this year like I am, or maybe, her parents are dropping of her sisters who's going here..." Sophie watched as the young girl walked through the halls, seeming to know where she was going. The girl was short and had black hair, she also wore a blue tie that had a golden wings stitched into a fancy embroidery design." I guess she's the one that goes here..." Sophie didn't realize the golden wings meant the girl was a general so she quickly dismissed the young girl as she lost interest in her. She started to west through the build, hoping to find the left wing.
