In front of the school was a seemingly stern lady holding a clipboard. "What is your name young lady?" She questioned, but the young girl in front of her seemed scared of her. "Eleanor of Dalona. I sent my registration form a few weeks ago." 

"Alright, let's see if your name is on the list Eleanor." Her eyes scanned over the paper in front of her, but her eyes briefly looked up at the young princess and noticed her trembling form. "Are you nervous young lady?" 

"A little." Her words came out stammered as Griselda finally found her name "Ah, Eleanor of Dalona. You can go in." She pointed her pen in the direction of the giant school behind her before her screeching voice called for the next person.

"What now? We're not on the list." Bloom asked, but Stella was one step ahead of the girls. "Yes, you are. I thought of everything. The princess of Calisto was supposed to come here this year, but she changed her mind. She gave me a letter to give to the headmistress, I just won't give it to her, that's all."

"Anyway, no one here knows the princess of Calisto. And for Kalani, some odd reason, there was someone here with the same name as you. So, you can just use her name. Easy as that." She ripped the letter from the princess of Calisto up and let the pieces fall to the ground.

"And you want us to take their places? That's lying- and it's not something small here either. What happens if they realize we're lying?" Kalani asked. She was skeptical about this plan, but Stella seemed more than sure that it would work. "Yes. And they won't find out. Now come on, it's too late to turn back now."

The walk to Griselda was filled with worry and fear, but Kalani mustered up as much courage as she could as they finally stopped in front of her. "Good morning, Ms. Griselda." 

Griselda seemed all but happy at the sun princess' attendance. "Well, if it isn't Princess Stella of Solaria. I never thought I'd see you here after what happened last year. I'm surprised you've chosen to grace us with your presence once again."

Her words had a hint of malice to them which Stella didn't seem to pick up on. "I don't give up that easily you know." But Griselda was still more than cold towards the young princess. "Humph. And who are your friends exactly?" She used the tip of her pen to gesture to the two earthlings. 

"The princess of Calisto, and Kalani." No matter how much digging she did, she could never seem to find a kingdom that Kalani came from, which made this story a little difficult. Griselda's condescending eyes raked over Kalani before looking over the paper for the names. 

"Ah, Viranda of Calisto and Kalani- ah it seems that your kingdom isn't listed. Likely an issue with printing." Bloom's form faltered a bit as she worriedly looked at Griselda. "That's me." Her hands twisted around each other as she waited for Griselda's response.

"You three may come in. But Ms. Kalani, Head mistress Faragonda would like a word with you before the day's end. She says it's important, so I wouldn't waste any time if I were you, young lady." 

She stepped aside and allowed for the three girls to pass through. "See? I always have great ideas." Although Stella spoke so low that Kalani almost missed it. "By the way Stella, what exactly did you do last year? Because Griselda seems to have a grudge against you."

"It was nothing major. Ms. Griselda loves to dramatize."

Two teachers stared out the window and stared down at the new students. "The new students are here. They all look so nice." Palladium spoke. He was the professor of potionology. He was rather skinny with auburn hair that went well past his waist.
