The world spun, glimpse of the castle walls, as they sped through, speeding past older years. They arrived at the grand staircase. It was this huge, carpeted of royal red and it went up so many floors, spiralling around their heads by the paintings of old historical supernatural's who the historians of their world were.Jinx finally stopped and there was three lots of students, the Venefica students stood in the middle, only a handful of them. 

Some had already put on their uniforms of chocolate-coloured pleaded skirts and the brown pants that mixed well with the light salmon-coloured jumpers and cream shirts that were buttoned up against their skin, though some students had disguinished looks. Whether their hair or the marks on their skin, all easily hidden, which was the point of this Academy. The Cruors to the right, furthest away from Lunae and once again, the range of uniform different. They had all their skin covered, unlike some Lunae who's brown pants were shorts, the cruor wore bootcut pants and skirts with thick knee-high socks. Thei pale skin nowhere on show, hidden behind all the layers, Cream shirts with their dark velvet purple jumper, their skirts had lines of purple threaded into them. Chanting and Howling as their head of year came round the corner, Luane jumped and tackled one another in excitement and were overlapping. Their uniforms were messiest of all. Untucked shirts, unbuttoned shorts and their laces all knotted and tangled. Their sweaters were dark green, with the Fancy L letter crest onto the right corner, each house had their crest somewhere in their clothes, on their belongings, notebooks, blankets, and food. Despite everyone being in proximity, they couldn't be further apart, no one mixing within the other houses. 

Terra fell flat on her bottom, as Jinx stood in front of her, handheld out to help her up as she smiled.
"A warning, next time Jinx"

Terras scolded taking the girls hand and getting up, dusting her hands against her thighs whilst Jinx grinned, "There's no fun in that."


She looked around and spotted the Venefica group and pointed towards it, "You're over there" she said to Terra and smiled finding her own group, Odins eyes staring into the back of her head as she pulled down her skirt slightly. The two groups were chatting between themselves, Venfica heading up the staircase and pale boy stood in front of the group of Cruor's. 

"First years of Cruor!" He boomed, his face was soft and his hair a pale brown, his voice low and he looked at the young children. "I am your head of house, and head boy, though I have no idea why Headmaster Alastor got us to meet but the staircase, because we're not using it," There was a few groans and a few cheers as he led them down the corridor, the lanterns on the wall flickering and dimming as it began to get colder and darker. 

"We are going to the dungeons, that's where our common room asides"

The boy, that spoke, his name was Aeron. A few years older than the first years he toured around the school. Terra waved as she walked past Jinx and Jinx smiled waving back before looking back at the dungeons ahead. 

"So, your friends with the adoptee?" A deep voice spoke in Terra's ear, making her jump in surprise as they walked the hundreds of steps on the spiral staircase towards their dorms. She turned quickly to see a boy, taller than her with dyed green hair, his dark roots showing through, his lips were a natural red and slightly parted as he looked at the small girl, whose braids were slowly coming apart. 

The girl replied innocently, "Jinx? Yes, she is the only one I know" 

The boy chuckled and nodded. "Well now you know two, I'm Jaylen, I help out with settling first years, I'm the year above."
