It was just like how professor Debroux had said, a rosey cheeked middle aged woman stood before them. She was observing the children silently before fully entering the classroom, just seeing what sort of people they are. Once she drew her conclusions about the children, she fully entered the room, and clapped once to make the kids settle down.

Everyone looked at the teacher at once.

Good morning everyone! I am Eliza Lovett, Your headteacher. Please take a seat.

Miss Lovett was a strict teacher, but this was all just on the surface. Once the students got to know her, their opinions changed. She usually was their favourite among the cast of the teachers. Her posture was always up-right, just like her teaching methods. She had curly red hair, and was very short. Her face was otherwise very featureless, she tried to hide her emotions in front of the children. The only sign that she had emotions, was the cheeks that would instantly light up a room that she enters.

Everyone settled down, sat down to a free seat, and started listening to the teacher.

Good - She stated with a strict, stern face - Let's assign seats.

She pulled out a paper which had every pupil's name written on it.

First of all - she started reading out the names - Adam Green, Azaela Hummings shall take the first table. Betsy Watts and Bill Paul shall take the second. Charles Brooks and Chester John will take the third, Helena Parry and Isabelle Scott take the fourth. And finally; Nyla Scott and Zephyr Reed will take the fifth.

Everyone took the seat assigned to them, they looked at each other. Nyla was a shy, not very talkative girl with hazel eyes, tanned skin and dark brown straight hair. Zephyr did not look at her, but she had her eyes on him, examining his green eyes, and red hair. She thought this was very unique, but also felt like there was something else about him.

Excellent! - She said as everyone took their place - Now we shall discuss what equipment will be needed for the classes. - As she was describing the necessary equipment, Zephyr's mind was occupied with the happenings of the last two weeks. The teacher noticed that he's the only one that isn't paying attention, and spoke up - Zephyr, pay attention!

This snapped Zephyr out of his thoughts, he looked at the teacher.

I'm sorry - He said.

She sighed, and continued on with her speech.

First off: your headmistress will be Bianca Wallace your peasant studies Corbin Debroux. He is the teacher that led you all here. Reading and English will be my subjects. Maths will be Josephine Wilson. Physical Education will be Axel Gardner, Cian Mitchell will be Art, and Cole Wilkinson will be history.

Your Schedules should have been handed out by now, but it bares repeating;

Today you are going to meet with all of the teachers. Once you did, you are free to go home, studying will start tomorrow morning.

Let us meet your Maths teacher first - She said gesturing towards them to stand up.

They walked to the next classroom in line. There waited Professor Wilson, an old, wrinkled lady who had grey hair, and cold eyes.

Good morning everyone! - She said void of all emotions.

In my class, you are going to learn about adding, subtracting, and shapes - she said with an annoyed expession. Any questions?

The class stayed silent, Adam had a slight smirk on his face, which the teacher noticed

Wipe that look off of your face young man - she said very rudely.
