Another day starts. But not like any other day , today is the day that they will have their festival. Today is the festival, the school dance, whatever you want to call it, no classes today, not even PE .

It is free time until lunch, even though noone ever skips breakfast, the most important meal of the day. 

"Morning" George says as he sits up 

"Dobre utra" Vera replies
"That's good morning in Russian" she explains . 

A knock on the door . It is Zee, ready to bring them clean clothes.  After dressing up, they go to have breakfast in the cafeteria.  Finally some good breakfast, pancakes with molten chocolate.


After an enjoyable time walking around and talking, it is time for bath, so they go to bathe and then have lunch

A pretty ordinary day , until afternoon. First, there is a demonstration of magic.  

"Welcome dear students to our yearly festival that revolves around magic, most of the time... Anyway, please welcome to the stage the three class counselours and presenters, Ms. Freimann, who will demonstrate air manipulation magic , Ms. Petrova who will show us water manipulation and Ms. Ramos who will show us some earth manipulation magic." was heard from the speakers

Everyone clapped as the three ladies appeared and become to get on the stage. 

"So, why did you name your part of the show 'AWE' ? "

"So, why did you name your part of the show 'AWE' ? " 

"Well, we named it Awe because 'AWE' stands for 'Air, Water, Earth' , which is the kind of magic we will be displaying" Ms. Freimann replied

"And why are the letters so badly ordinated?" A random student asked   

"Quiet" 

"It's okay, there is nothing wrong with a little critisism" Ms. Petrova said

The student that asked about the letters fell down

"Are you okay?"  

Everyone looked at the student, then at Zee, who is the only one who was smiling 

"What?" she asked 

"Well, anyway, I suppose we should begin" Ms. Freimann said, breaking the silence.

A magical demonstration, how little they know of magic and call themselves masters , what type of academy teaches so little about their subject, well, only the headmaster knows that, I see everything , dear grandchild. 

"Why are you telling me this story?"

Because , my child, this story will find us soon. 

"And how do you know everything in such detail?"

I see everything, the present, the past, the future.

A magnificent magic demonstration, then a dance. The school dance, in fact. 

"I am not a good dancer " Vera said

"I am not either" He responded

"Come on then!" Vera enthusiastically replied

The two of them danced, or at least tried to , there were lots of people types there  ,  those who always have someone to go with to the dance , those who would beg someone to pretend to be with them , those who go alone and dance, and those who go with friends and make fun of dancers.

During the dance Zee was serving drinks, non alcoholic of course. She sneaked up on them 

"Enjoy your dance, tell me how it went later" She said 

"Oh, look at the freak, look at him dance with the gnome" a voice was heard . 
"Ouch" the same voice was heard , along with something falling.

Zee just winked at them . As if the ground itself moved .
A generally happy time, too bad it ended so quickly . 

"The class counselour will not always be there to look after you and your girlfriend" the student said as he left

"Hey! You can't just assume I am his girlfriend! And I am not that short!" Vera said angrily

"well, at least I had a dance partner" George said as the other student walked away, the student then returned and grabbed George, ready to pick up a fight, and the two of them struggled

Both of them fell down, as if the ground itself moved beneath them.

"Both of you, to your rooms , grounded" Zee said as she closed in

"You are not a teacher!"  

"Oh, that's true, I am not, but I can take you to the headmaster" Zee said and grabbed the mischievous student by the ear and pulled him towards the headmaster's office.

Vera and George were left there laughing, before heading to the bedroom, tired. 

"Zee does stand up when she wants to" George said 

"Gnome" Vera replied , still angry about that name.

"Well, you are not the tallest person I know, but I wouldn't call you a gnome because of that" 

"Not helping it"

"Not trying to" 

They both smiled after that statement.
