School Of Magic

💮 ~ Chapter 1 ~ 💮

I was sitting down on the bench waiting for the bus to arrive. I was nervous because I was going somewhere where there are a lot of other adults, which was only 18 or 19-year-olds, and that there were different schools of magic, but the one I am going to was called Histirubia. I didn't know if this school was for the weak people that had weak abilities so that made me even more nervous. As I thought of the school, I then saw that the bus was coming down the street that I was at. I then started to shake lightly and then got up and walked into the bus when it had stopped. I then saw all of the other people talking and laughing discussing their abilities. "Why are they all not nervous? Is it just me who is nervous?" I started to think as I walked down the lane of the bus. I started to walk towards the empty seat in the back and sat there. The bus driver sat and waited for about a minute or two to see if there were other people coming onto the bus. He then closed the door to the bus and started to drive to another bus stop. As he drove to the other bus stop, I started to look at the trees and they were shaking and moving through the wind. It looked like they were waving goodbye, I found it amusing but it was just amusing. But, I started to think, "Why am I so nervous? Will my timidness go away so that I won't ruin my reputation?" As I thought of those thoughts, I then got butterflies in my stomach as the bus driver arrived at another bus stop, and I got really nervous because they were all guys. So, that made me look down and think about what they could say or think of me as they sit near or beside me. 

As they started to walk onto the bus, the bus got even louder and I started to laugh as they pushed and shoved each other to sit next to other girls. All I could hear is the boys laughing and the girls giggling at their stupidity. I shook my head at them and continued to look out the window. I then started to pull out my phone and look at my notifications. Most of the people on this bus had iPhones, so I got comfortable with that because I had one also. I saw that all of the other people were either talking to the people beside them or on their phones. So, I was calm about getting on my phone. As I got on my phone, my grandmother texted me asking, "Are you on the bus yet? Are you feeling okay? Grandmama misses you!" I laughed under my breath and texted her back saying, "Yeah I'm on the bus, I'm feeling alright, and I miss you too lol." I then sent and she replied back saying, "I'm happy that you are alright, if you need anything, then text or call me okay?" "Okay grandma, love you," I replied back and she then said she loved me and I turned my phone off. My grandmother was very kind and would do anything to help me, but on the other hand, that was not the case towards my real parents. They were abusive and very strict. I couldn't do much and finally one day, I told someone that I was being abused by my mother and father and that they would hurt me every day. They noticed that as I went to school with bruises and nosebleeds. They were finally taken to jail and now I live with my grandmother. She never knew that my parents would abuse me over small simple things, or even abuse me at all. So, my grandmother and I are really close and she and I would do anything to help each other out. 

Another bus stop arrived and it was just one woman. She was average height, light blonde medium-short haired, crystal blue eyes, and her body shape was pretty good. As she walked down the lane, there was only one seat left, mine. There were no more empty seats and the bus was completely full. So, she walked down the lane into my seat and sat there. She looked very determined all the time. She didn't smile, talk, or make any emotions, she would just sit there on her phone typing to someone. I wondered what her power was but just forgot about it over time. But as the bus drove, the bus driver then got his walkie-talkie and said to the other bus drivers that his bus was full. So, he had to go directly to the school. I then got butterflies in my stomach and squinted my eyebrows together. "Why are you nervous?" A random sturdy voice said. I looked around and saw that the person who said that was the person sitting next to me. She had a neutral face and I then hesitantly responded saying,"I-it's just that I don't like to go somewhere that I don't know." She raised her eyebrow saying, "Well...you have a point, but this is a place to control your powers, not to worry about your reputation," she responded. I just thought of that as I said that I was worried about my reputation. It was like she read my mind or something. "W-wait...did you just read my mind?" I asked smirking. She then smirked and turned her head straight-forward. I then started to narrow my eyes and looked out the windows. "Lucky you..." I said looking down glumly. "Why am I lucky?" She asked raising her eyebrows. "I...I don't know my powers yet," I said sadly looking at her with a glum face. Her eyes started to widen open as she asked: "Wait...you don't know your powers?" I shook my head and then said, "The thing is, my parents saw that there were odd things happening around me and that I would appear somewhere else when I was just sitting there." She then nodded her head lightly and said, "You haven't found your triggering point yet." I nodded at her acknowledgment and said, "And I don't know when." She then squinted her mouth and said, "Well, my name is Opal, Opal Fawn." I then smiled and said, "My name is Rose, Rose Aster," I said as I smirked. Opal seemed like a very determined person, but if you're close to her, she can be the nicest person out there. She told me that her power was the ability of invisibility, and the power of psychokinesis. I found it fascinating since her powers were rare in society so I got to ask how it was to have those abilities. 

 As we traveled to the school, I told her about my life and how I am trying to figure out what my powers were. She was more talkative since we got to talk more and I was less tense about going to the school so I was calm and relaxed, and she saw the real side of me and liked it very much. But then, we arrived at the school campus and I was being separated into sections and I was nervous because I didn't know my abilities.
