IM NOT PART OF THE PACK

ELEVEN

It took them an hour and a half to arrived at the school.

Raven high is located outside the city. Its the most expensive school there, and almost everyone who has money or some special conections send their kids there. It was the most exclusive until three years ago. when the school principal of raven high decided to open their doors to students from public schools creating a program just for the best students, so they could spend their last two years of highschool studying there and getting the oportunity of getting accepted in almost every college.

They werent many places as far as they knew only 8 people from their school could go and it was already a big group. They heard that in other schools there were only 5 places or less.

"We are here!" Arlo said as he could see Raven high. "this place looks sick! Its like as if we are in a movie" Arlo wasn't exaggerating.

As they approache the wrought-iron gates of Raven High, they were greeted by a majestic stone archway with the school's emblem of a raven perched atop. Beyond the gates, the campus unfolds before them, surrounded by a dense forest that seems to cloak the school in a veil of secrecy.

The Gothic-style buildings loom like towering sentinels, made of gray stone with pointed arches and intricate carvings. The windows were stained glass, casting colorful patterns across the dark wood floors and walls. The campus was filled with the smell of damp earth and the rustling of leaves, and even on the brightest days, a haunting aura pervades the air.

The buss stop and everyone started to go out so they could grab their things.
Lucian look around as he felt out of place. He had seen Raven high on the Internet and he knew how big this school was but now that he was already here. He couldnt help but feel a bit overwhelmed.

The students of Raven High are the epitome of wealth and privilegie and they look like it. They wore designer uniforms with the school crest embroidered on the blazers and ties, while they carry expensive leather satchels filled with textbooks and laptops.

Arlo frown as he look at this. He didnt like the idea of using an uniform.
Soon a woman arrived.

She look young but she was old enough to be a teacher.

"hello. Im happy to see you all. My name is Anne and im the teacher of the biology class"

Everyone had already their things so they walk to where the woman was as they heard what she was saying.

"your the second group to arrived. In total there are three groups from three different public schools. Your groups is the one who has the most students that had got in the program. In total the three groups are made of 18 students."

18 wasnt a small number for a program like this, but Lucian heard some rumors saying that most of the students from the program fail to stay the two years for some reason.

"Okay now follow me so you can see the school" the woman started to walk as everyone started to follow her.

Arlo and Lucian look at the students.
The boys had neatly trimmed hair and chiseled jaws, while the girls have long, flowing hair and flawless skin.

They really looked like Rich kids. Arlo wonder if he could look like them if he wear those uniforms. Even if he didnt like them he still wanted to look like them. As they continue walking they got into the buildings and they could see the classrooms.

Inside the classrooms, the desks were made of polished walnut and the blackboards were framed in heavy wood. The walls were lined with framed portraits of former headmasters and founders, and the shelves were filled with leather-bound books.

As they look at everything the woman stop and look at the groups of kids.
"Maybe you have heard that not all of the students in the program get to finish the two years and are able to graduate from here."

Lucian was really curiouse about this.

"The classes here are rigorous and demanding, and only the most elite students can keep up. Thats why this program only accepts excelente students. If you start to fall on your grades or get into trouble. Belived me when i say that your going to be kick out of this place without a second look"

Everyone stay in complete silence as the air felt dense. Everyone started to panic and worry in their minds.

"Outside the academic curriculum, the students indulge in a range of extra-curricular activities. The athletic facilities are state-of-the-art, with a heated Olympic-sized pool, tennis courts, and a fully equipped gym. There is also a music hall, a theater, and an art studio, where the students can explore their artistic talents." the woman continue talking without carrying about the faces of the students she had just scare." So if any of you has a talent in a sport or in a cultural activity. You can think about getting into it. If your good you can get some preferences."

Arlo thougth about this as he node. He had already thougth of getting into an activity. This was the fastest way of knowing people and getting friends.

He already had an elaborate plan in his mind were he would get popular and get a girldfriend by the end of his school year.

The woman show them around for about an hour and when she finish she said "okay the last group is about to arrived. Now where are you staying. Most of the students here decide to go back to their house, but in your case this will not be possible. In this program we want you to expirience our student life as much as you can so youll stay in our dorms. The dorms are in the next two buildings and in the Door of each one is a list of the rooms you can use. Make pairs since the rooms are for two people. The women live in the first building and the men in the second one. If your found to be in a building were your not supposed to be youll be kicked out of the program. So dont do it. "

Everyone node and soon they all started to go to the buildings where they were assign.
