CHAPTER FOUR
( ASTRID )

Well, she didn't get her neck chomped.
Vanessa had showed her to her room, introduced herself and left her to take in her new room, and to put some clothes on.

She didn't know if she should trust the blonde, considering she's related to an heir and friends with them, she probably shouldn't. But, she seemed genuinely kind.

Although, Astrid decided to keep her guard up around her.

Her room was something out of a fairy tale, in her opinion. The bedroom was twice the size of their old apartment, and the bed! It was three times the size of the couch.

Last night she had discovered an Altas,
This world's version of a phone? She scrolled through her contracts and found her name listed under Estella Vega, her sisters under Roxanya and Gwendalina Vega.

She changed them quickly and found Darcy created a group chat with her and Tory.

They group called until they fell asleep. Tory had been involved in some mud dodge ball fight and Darcy had been tricked by the Aer Captain and his little followers before jumping off the roof and using her magic to save herself.

Astrid feared there ploys of making fools of them was only just beginning.

She'd fallen asleep at some point and when she woke up Astrid snooped through the wardrobe that racked up to the ceiling and found the school uniform, a bunch of yoga pants, shirts and sweaters with the ignius logo printed on them.

Her own private bathroom was stocked with cosmetics, a tooth brush, and the shower was a dream.

After showering putting her uniform on she paired it with knee-high socks and cute black flats before looking herself over in the mirror.

Her curls were still a little damp, the navy and white check skirt was pleated and brushed her knees, the white shirt was crisp and figure hugging. She put her blazer over her shirt, brushing her fingers over her the academy crest that was ringed with each symbol of the zodiac.

Astrid sighed, grabbed her bag and headed for Cardinal Magic class.

Sophia caught up to her and helped her find her way. They met with Tory and found Darcy inside class already.

"Hey!" Tory greeted, taking a seat on Darcy's Left, Sophia sitting beside her. Astrid took the seat to Darcy's right.

"Did you manage to avoid the Fire Asshole this morning?" Darcy asked Astrid.

Astrid nodded, "Fortunately," she muttered. "Not on purpose though, I'm not hiding from that asshole."

"We might have someone else we need to hide from," Darcy said, filling them in on her encounter with Geraldine.

"She called you your majesty?" Tory asked in disbelief and Darcy nodded.

"There's a fair few royal supporters in the school from what I heard," Sofia chipped from beside Tory.

"Que pasa amigas?" A guy who wore a black beanie hat with a white cross on it, dropped down in the seat in front of Darcy. He had a kind face, his skin deeply tanned but his eyes unusually blue.
