"..." silence consumed everything in the back seat of the limousine where two particularly extrodinary set of twin girls sat. With the look of misery and a hint of sadness etched onto their facial features, they stared out of the tinted windows. They knew they arrived. The girls looked towards the very man who brought them here. Mesphisto Pheles. Certainly a very strange looking man with a strange sense of style. Dark purple hair which highlights his forest green eyes. A tall sleek man, possibly 6'5" and is usually seen in an unique and elegant white outfit consisting of a long top hat with pink and purple around the base. Purple gloves cover his slender fingers and a pink tie with white dots finish the rather bizarre attire.
Gracie, the oldest twin and recognised as the fun and loving brunette with big bright sky blue eyes, looked in the direction of her twin sister, Tamsin. The girl full of determination with a sarcastic nature surrounding her and gleaming wide hazelnut eyes which complemented her slightly wavy light brown hair.
"Um...where are we?" Tamsin shyly asked Mesphisto and he only smirked "Why, at True Cross Academy of course! The very school which enrolls the best of students and trains the best of exorcists. The very school which the two of you will be joining." His eyes gleam of excitement whereas the girls gulp and stare at their surroundings.
"Oh and if you please, could you put on this school attire?" Mesphisto smiled and handed the girls a white blouse each paired with pink school skirts and true cross academy's stripy ties tied as bows along with knee high socks and black school shoes.
"Urgh pink... I can't stand pink. Do we have to wear this colour?" Gracie picked up the skirt in disgust and gagged and Tamsin did exactly the same.
"Is there any other colour we can wear?" The sarcastic girl asked and threw the skirt at Mesphisto to which he caught it easily.
"Hmmm... we can give you red ones?" He raised an eyebrow and the twins smiled for the first time since they arrived.
"Perfect" they said in unison.

The hot pink limousine stopped in front of the gates of a huge academy. They were here. The girls suddenly felt nauseous and uncomfortable and held onto each other for reassurance. It was clear they didn't want to be here. But they had no choice since they were left under the care of Mesphisto. Their parents pleaded Mesphisto to take care of the girls if anything ever happened to the parents. An unfortunate accident happened, leaving the girls to be orphans, children left on their own.

Mesphisto exits the limo ever so casually, leaving the door open for the twins to exit and that is what they did. They inhaled a steady breath and looked up at the building in awe. Internally they felt grateful to have found a safe haven but that relief suddenly turned to fear. Memories they were desperate to forget flashed through their minds but they simply shook it off and kept walking.

"Oh yes. I forgot to mention. There isn't any dorm rooms left." Pheles turned around and smiled at them.
"Then where the hell are we sleeping then?" Gracie raised an eyebrow looking at her sister in confusion to which Tamsin just shrugged, looking equally as confused.
Mesphisto grinned and explained "Since there are no dorms left, you will have to share a dorm with two others. This dorm has two bedrooms and a comfortable space downstairs so it'll be perfectly fine!"
Gracie shrugged and Tamsin remained quiet. "I guess that'll be fine."
"And the two you'll be sharing it with are twin boys too."
"Wait we have to share with boys?!"

"And finally, this is the cafeteria. I will show you to your exorcism classrooms that you will be attending." Mesphisto Pheles walks away gesuring the girls to follow him. He has completed the task of showing them around the school and letting them become familiar of their surroundings that they will grow bored of someday. Most of the time, Gracie looked around in awe, admiring the artistry of the building meanwhile Tamsin glanced around smiling slightly, looking uninterested in Mesphistos explanation.
"Let's go then!" Gracie beamed and took her sisters hand, dragging her to follow Mesphisto. Tamsin groaned and did so. But she did look forward to seeing the classroom too.

They all enter an empty, meek classroom which seemed cosy. It was small, perfect for the girls. Being in enlarged spaces and rooms increased their anxiety and made them feel sick. As long as this room wasn't crowded, they would relax here. It was currently the weekends so the students at True Cross Academy rested for the weekends at home or in their dorms.

The girls learned that there will only be a few classmates with them and that they were very friendly. They thought that they would get along well with them hopefully, despite being quiet at first. But they also knew that they didn't want to develop close relationships with any of the classmates. It would be too much for them to handle knowing their dark past so they avoided close friendships and relationships. It caused too much hurt and pain. They only had each other to depend on.
The twins shook their heads to rid of the dark thoughts consuming their mind and looked at Mesphisto, who noticed the grim look on their faces but he smiled with kindness at the girls, hoping to get them to at least change their feelings and make them feel welcome. It worked successfully because the girls smiled slightly and agreed to go to school here.
Mesphisto was the only one who knew what happened to the girls and their past. He felt sorry for them and admired at how strong they are especially with the burden of the past on their backs. It was clear that the sisters were close and could depend on each other and Mesphisto was glad they each at least had someone who cares.
"So... are we going to go to our dorms now?" Gracie raised her eyebrow and Mesphisto answered in his usual tone "Ah yes. Follow me!~" and the sisters obeyed and followed him down winding corridors and sharp turns.

Some time passed by before they both stood in front of a wooden door labelled dorm 706.
"Oh God... here goes..." Tamsin sighs and brushes out her hair slightly with her fingertips, letting the silky strands fall. Gracie gave her a nod and looked towards the direction of the door, smiling slightly to make herself look more presentable. Tamsin then raised her fist and knocked on the door gently three times. It took a short while for the reply 'just a minute' to come and clattering sounds was heard inside. The girls raised an eyebrow and waited patiently. It didn't take long before the door handle rattled, and then slowly creak open. All the time around them stopped as they let out a deep breath...
