first things first, I'm moving to a different school. By different, I mean "not ordinary".

You see, I used to be in those regular high schools. Just a regular, boring school with normal subjects. Cooking, art, science, subjects like that.

But then one day, I heard my parents talking down stairs in the basement. I was one of those curious girls, so I decided to quietly walk down the stairs of the basement and sneak around boxes. I hid behind the stacks of boxes at the end of the room beside the stairs. I popped my head out a little and peeled over.
"She's 15 now, we should send her to Phoenix Drop High. Back in our world" I heard mom say making me cross my eyes. Our world?
"We'll send her there tomorrow, get packing. We'll be living there too. I just got off the phone with her principle here telling them she's moving to a different school. So today, we just pack" dad responded making me walk back up the stairs.

I was in my room writing in my notebook until my parents came into my room. I looked up at them.
"Hi mom and dad" I greeted making them smile. Mom and dad placed unfolded boxes on the ground in front of them.
"Pack up sweetie. We're moving, tonight" mom said making me look at them, like I didn't even hear what they said in the basement.
"Then we have to call my principle-" I said but dad interrupted.
"we just got off the phone saying they say farewell" he said making me nod.
"Ok, um what school am I gonna go to-" I said but the door slammed shut before I continued. I jumped. They left.
"Ok then" I said making me jump off my bed and pick up an unfolded box and started to fold it up until it's an actual box.

I grunted pushing the flaps of the box shut and taped it down. I sighed when I finished. I filled about 11 boxes. Mom said I could just leave the room with its mirror, bed and dresser. I heard my door open seeing dad.
"Come on hon" he said as he picked up about 3 boxes stacked on each other and left the room. Mom came in a picked up 2, I picked up just one and carried it down. Mom and dad rushed back upstairs to get the rest of my things while I stood and waited down the stairs. I took a look at the house. I sighed. Vines were growing on the corners of the ceiling. The chandelier had vines to hold it up. My house was mainly a "green" house cause of all the plants everywhere. I've always wondered why vines and flowers have grown from the walls after a few days we moved here. But my mom said, she loves nature's beauty so she decides to grow plants around the house. I never see her watering the plants though. One time when I was 7, I spotted her touch the vine and it grew out instantly to more and more vines on the wall. I had always called her Mother Nature after that cause of her amazing magic with the plants. Meanwhile, dad on the other hand, he had always spent his day downstairs in the basement or outside on a stormy day. When my parents were out at work I visited down into the basement and looked around her room he told me not to enter. I looked around that room and I found cauldrons, smoking potions. It was like a wizards house or something. Of course I was 10 when I called my dad Wizard.

"Ok let's go" Mom said when I sat down in the van behind moms seat and fastened my seatbelt.
"Is it a far drive to the new house?" I asked when I checked the time. 11:55pm. It was nearly midnight.
"Just sleep for now honey, it's gonna be a long drive" she said when the van trailed off off the dirt path and into the woods. I gasped feeling myself bounce when my dad drove the car over stones. I yelped a few times until I looked down to my feet when I felt the van drive onto a flat surface. I crossed my eyebrows and then I looked up towards the drivers window making me gasp seeing a cliff right in front of us. I I held on onto my door handle when dad literally drove off the cliff. I screamed pushing back into my seat when the van tipped forward down to the water. I screamed.

we heard our daughter scream behind us making me look at my husband and smile. I looked forward seeing a water whirl pool. The van dove in and no water had entered the van. Blue swirls, curled around us seeing the the shades of blue go lighter when we went deeper. into the whirl pool. Then it was just plain white.

•Eunice•
my sight went white. I shut my eyes with my hands covering them. I didn't take my hands off my eyes, until I felt the van's engine roar, knowing, we were still driving? I opened my eyes and my mouth dropped open.
"Where...are we???" My lips spoke hearing my parents chuckle.
