    Scar POV

    It'd been a while since he'd been to a public school. His parents kept him homeschooled after what happened at his last school, they were too worried.

    The school was called Double High. He'd never heard of it before, but apparently, his mother wanted him to go.

    So, there he was, standing awkwardly in front of a large school he knew nothing about.

    He heard a skateboard go by him, as well as a bunch of random chatter he couldn't make out. He gripped the straps to his backpack.

    Well, hello, school. He closed his eyes and took a deep breath.

    "You good?"

    He looked around to see a girl walking toward him.

    "I havn't seen you around here before, so I'd guess you're new?" the girl said. He nodded. "Well, welcome! I can help give you a tour, if you want." she smiled.

    "Oh, uh... well, its nice to meet you?" he stammered.

    She put her hand out. "Nice to meet you as well! I'm Cleo, what about you?"

    "Sc- Scar." he took her hand and shook.

    "Cleo! Oh I was worried, you disappeared on me!" Scar looked behind Cleo to see another man running at them.

    Cleo looked at him. "Ren, you don't need to be my constant bodyguard."

    He looked offended. "Why?!"

    "I dunno, maybe it's a bit excessive? I can protect myself, you know, Ren." Cleo retorted, folding her arms over her chest. Scar started backing away.

    He turned around to face the school again and started walking towards it. He had a piece of paper in his pocket that his mother told him would give him most of the information he needed. He pulled it out and looked at it. All it said was to go to the principal's office to get the rest of the information he needed.

    Wow, so helpful. He nearly facepalmed, but he folded up the piece of paper and put it back in his pocket. He kept walking to the front of the school.

    The inside was fairly nice. Pretty plain walls, not much decor, but it was in good condition. He found a map and found where the principal's office was.

    When he got there, the principal was sitting at his desk, and another boy was lying in a chair, his head on his arms with his eyes shut. He was quietly snoring.

    The principal nudged the other boy and muttered something in his ear. The boy yawned and stretched his arms up. As he opened his eyes, he turned around to look at Scar, who was standing awkwardly at the door.

    "Oh." he yawned again. "Hello! I'm guessing you're the new student?" he yawned yet another time, however, it was a smaller yawn. Scar nodded. "Well, I guess I'll show you around. It's the first day of the semester, there's not gonna be any classes today. What's your name?"

    "Scar, what about you?"

    "Grian." he put out a hand. "Nice to meet you, Scar." he grinned very sheepishly.

    Scar took his hand. "Nice to meet you as well, Grian."

    "Well, let's go, I've been told we have the same exact schedule and dorm so let's go to the dorms first." Grian stood up and walked over to the door, stretching his arms over his head.

    As they walked to the dorm rooms, Grian explained some things about the school.

    "So, according to legends and stuff, I honestly don't really believe in them, but people in this school are soulbound to another."
