Hey guys who might possibly be reading this.
This is my first story I've ever posted. I originally wrote this for a class, we wrote fantasy stories, but I'm going to change the ending, and make it a little longer.
I really sorry, but with school, theater, dance, cross country, and track, I might not be the most reliable updater, but stay with me, I really love this story! Don't hesitate to vote, ore comment! I would really appreciate feedback, as a first time writer! So here's a little info!

Update 2.4.16
First few chapters need to undergo heavy editing

In England, a group of girls took tests when they were in 1st grade. If you excelled on this really difficult test, you were given more tests, and if you passed, you were accepted into a very prestigious school, allowing only one girl from each country. This school was called The European Girls Academy for Extraordinary Smarts, set up by various wealthy people all throughout the continent. Most attendants call it EGAES for short. The girls who attend this school are currently either 13 or 14, though they are doing things like calculus and physics.

Abigail Douglas: known by friends Basia and Isabella as Abs. Pale, freckled light redhead, electric blue eyes, victim to Scarlett and the Winters. She was alone until Bells and Bas came along, her roommate being Isabella, and she loves to read: she was chosen from Scotland. She was invited to be The River of The Garden after her friends were gone, but she turned it down. Her name means joy by the dark river.

Isabella Embervile: a pale, freckled fiery redhead, vivid green eyes. She was proud of herself until her sister committed suicide, after which she was victim to bullying by Scarlett and the Winters. She ran away 2 yrs ago, and is presumed dead. Her two best friends were Basia and Abigail, and she was referred to as Bells. She is from Ireland. Her name means a promise of fire.

Scarlett Frigidelph: the school bully, she's the reason Isabella ran away. Her two "friends" are the Winters twins, Gabrielle and Fleur. She had copper colored hair,  piercing gray-blue eyes, and a "flawless," pale complexion, and she was born in England. Her name means bloody ice.

Gabrielle and Fleur Desrosiers: They are twins, though not identical. Gabrielle is a pale blonde, with wavy pale blond hair. She was one of the first girls at EGAES to discover and wear makeup. She is a strong believer in Scarlett's ways, and believes in only the purest belonging at the academy. Her name means warrior of the rose bush. Fleur is also pale, but has light, mostly unnoticeable, freckles. Her hair is blonde, though it has darker streaks, and is straight. She just wants her sister to be proud of her, so she follows Scarlett to "fit in." Unknown to Scarlett or her sister, she is friends with a group of people called The Garden. She is called The Flower of The Garden. Her name means flower of the rose bush. The twins are the French geniuses. They are often referred to as the Winters, because they are ice cold jerks.

Basia Jura was killed 5 years ago by malaria. She was best friends with Isabella and Abigail, and was known by them as Bas. She had dark brown, nearly black hair that was down to her waist. She had bangs that went across her forehead. Her eyes made her seem wise, the blue-green irises sharp, yet kind. She was rooming with Scarlett, though they hated each other. She too had freckles, and she was from the Czech Republic. Her name simply means foreigner.
