Seth Claude - POV;

The headmistress was the first to officially welcome us into the Academy after we had arrived that morning. There was still an entire week left before the next semester would begin and since the school mandated boarding at the dorms as part of their 'Full Student Life Experience' policy, we all needed to prepare and settle down before the rest of the student body arrived to make things far more hectic on campus.

Besides, it was far easier to commute to the Academy from within the massive compound that from home since calling it merely distanced from the rest of society would be an understatement. The school was practically isolated from society with the closest inhabited area being about an hour's drive away.

We were instantly dragged to an area by the staff where a bulletin containing the names of students, classroom assignments and dorm assignments was posted. I scanned the long list of about one hundred and fifty students thrice before I finally found my name and allocations.

"Hey, hey. Did you see the limousine that pulled up earlier."

"Yeah, this really hot chick hopped out of it. She had all the right meat in all the right places!"

"Ugh, you guys are perverts! She is the daughter of Queen Seraphine you morons! You can't talk about a Crown Princess like that. You'll be executed!"

"Um.... that seems a little extreme for the boys, even if they are thinking dirty thoughts."

I shook my head as I overheard the conversatuon of the four man group. It had intrigued me however that apparently, a princess was attending as part of our year. How curious. Before I could ponder further, the teachers separated us into two distinct groups; male and female, before leading the way to our respective lodgings.

"This is the main hall of the dorm building. I am sure this will be a point of commuting for most of you over the next three years. The rooms are right up that stairway. Freshmen are on the lowest levels, followed by juniors and then seniors at the top levels. While it isn't explicitly 'forbidden', I wouldn't recommend journeying too far into the other year groups' territories however it would be fine for now since many have returned home for the vacation. Well, you can stay out as long as you don't exit the dorm building, but try to get to bed early because we will summon all of you for a special assembly early tomorrow morning. Well, welcome to Scarlet Moon Academy. Feel free to talk to me about any problems. Enjoy yourselves!" the male teacher shouted before leaving the building.

I went directly to my room rather than socialising with the other students. I had never been a quite social type of guy and that sure as hell wasn't just going to change  just because I entered a new school. I unpacked quickly and lay lazily on the fluffy white bed closest to the window which I claimed as my own since my roommates had yet to arrive. I scrolled through my feed on Twinter using my smartphone although my thoughts were elsewhere. It was still overwhelming how quickly my life had suddenly changed. 

The next thing I knew was the feeling of two arms shaking my body violently. My eyes shot open but i cringed at the bright sunlight streaming through the open shutters.

"Yo dude. They're calling us for the morning assembly. You want us to wait on you?" one of the guys inquired.

"No, I'll catch up. Thanks for the wake up," I replied.

"It's fine. You should probably come down soon though," the other male noted before they both left.

In my still disoriented state, I hadn't clearly made out any of their details but I was pretty sure that I knew who they were. I quickly washed my face and applied my trusty deodorant spray. As long as you smelled fine, it was alright... right?
