We walked out the door, idly chatting along the way to the new academy. Seto was practically jumping with excitement, and I have to say, I was pretty worked up about it, too.

After a while of walking, we saw it. A huge, looming purple mansion on a hill. "Wow..." Seto breathed.
"It's...spectacular..."

I was speechless. The school was so majestic, witches and witch hybrids--and humans--of every shape and size were milling around the large yard. "Come on!" I squealed, grabbing Seto's hand and dancing around the lot.
A few minutes later, a loud ring echoed from inside the school. "Uh, I guess we're supposed to go inside?" Seto shrugged and walked into the school.

"Oh, hello, dears! Now, what are your names?" A little old lady at the reception desk asked sweetly.

"My name is Ember," I answered, "and he's Seto."

"Ah, there you are! Alright, dearies, head on to your first class: Potions!" The woman smiled and dismissed us. Seto's face lit up as he heard what we were going to.

"I'm gonna ace this class!" He grinned. I just smiled and opened the door. We rushed in as a mob of people pushed through us. I squeaked as I was sucked into the flood of bodies. Seto stifled a laugh as I was shoved out, gasping. We took seats at the front of the class.

Everyone had calmed down by the time the teacher walked in. "Hello, class, I am Mr. Rockwell. Today we will be learning about Potions and what they contain."

I sat back in my chair as the professor droned on about spider eyes and whatnot. I smirked as I saw how attentive Seto was.

I was snapped back to reality when Mr. Rockwell tapped on my desk. "Ahem. You there, what are the ingredients of a Harming Potion?"

I gulped. Suddenly, I got a small note. It read, Harming: Fermented Spider Eye + Poison. Poison: Spider Eye + Awkward.

"Um...a fermented spider eye and a poison potion?" I replied nervously.

"And what is in the poison potion?"

"Spider eye and awkward potion."

"Good. For a second there I thought you weren't paying attention," Mr. Rockwell sneered and continued the lecture.

After class, Seto and I walked out the door. "Thanks, by the way, for the note," I smiled.

"What note? I didn't give you a note," Seto looked confused.

"Then who did?" My smile fell.

"I did."
