Pisces P.O.V
I could see the amazement on everyone's faces as they looked around the room. I could remember when I first arrived, which was yesterday. I was the second to arrive, Capricorn had been the first, Cancer and Virgo third, and Aries last.
Aries is just so mean! I mean she pushed me down a flight of stairs, which broke my leg! Thankfully O- wait you haven't been told his name yet. I'll call him Mr.O for now. Thankfully Mr.O was here to heal my leg with whatever potion he used. Taurus clearly wasn't that amazed because she walked over to Mr.O and started yelling at him.
"What kind of crazy person do you think I am! What's with all this zodiac stuff, and magic stuff!" She yelled angrily. Libra had a much different look though, he looked like he was in deep thought. I wonder what he was thinking about. "Taurus I'm going to ignore you for now. Let's split up to give the tour. Don't wanna distract the workers!" Mr.O said in his loud voice. "Alright, Capricorn you take Taurus, Cancer you take Gemini, Pisces you take Libra and lastly Virgo you get Sagittarius." Mr.O said and set us off.
I was told to take Libra to the science room first then I can go wherever I want next. "Yes sir!" I said giving him a little saluting motion before running towards Libra. "Okay Libra. Let's head to the science room!" I said with a wide grin and started marching towards a door to the next room on the left.
We had entered a smaller room. There was a bunch of test tubes on a table in the back that a person in a white coat was inspecting. There was a set of microscopes on a table and three more people there. The room had a dim lighting, for science reasons I think. Libra was looking around in awe at all the scientific devices, I think he thinks it's for the normal science you're taught in school. Time to break the news I guess.
"This is the potions lab. In other words, the science room." I said looking up at Libra. He just slowly turned his head towards me with the most confused look I've ever seen. "Potions?" He said slowly with a confused tone. "Yup, potions. You know how they used an attraction charm, well what they actually did was sprinkle a little bit of it onto your paper. I really don't understand it that much, but I hear it's really complicated stuff." I said with my signature smile. He just said nothing. This was too awkward, I had to do something.
"Let's, uhh, move on." I said and started to head towards the dorms. He nodded silently and continued to walk forward behind me. We had only gone through about three halls before arriving. I saw Virgo and Sagittarius talking as they headed to the science room. At least they were having a better time than me and Libra.
We had arrived and so I've gotta explain everything, so I might as well start to explain the dorms. "This is the dormitory. All of our dorms are in this room. Your dorm is," I looked around for Libras name on a door and found it,"right there!" I walked up to the door and pointed to it. "I see, you don't have to point it out." He said with his hands on his chin as if he were in deep thought. What a great conversation we're having now, right? Don't answer that.
We moved on to the next rooms and I explained each one. The research lab, the dining room, the kitchen, the laundry room, and lastly the meeting hall. I liked the meeting hall. It was large and had so many vibrant colors. There was also a giant table with so many chairs and one giant one at the the very head of the table! I loved it, although we were only told it was for meetings. Mr.O wouldn't tell us what the meetings were about which really stunk.
Then an alarm starting blaring and red flashing lights went off. "Pisces, what is going on!" Libra yelled at me as the sound got louder. Honestly I didn't know. "I have no clue! Maybe Mr.O nee-" but I was cut off by Mr.O's voice over loud speakers. "All zodiacs, please meet me in the meeting room."
At least we were aready there. Libra took a seat in a chair near the end and I decided to do the same. Virgo and Sagittarius came running in closely followed by Aries. Capricorn and Taurus came next and lastly Cancer and Gemini arrived. The only person missing was Mr.O.
