Chapter one: September 2nd , 4pm

The girl stared at the back of the man's head following him as he leads her down a hall, she could hear him talking but was too distracted looking around to focus directly on his words.The man stopped suddenly almost making catrina bump into his back.

" this is as far as I can take you ms.acosta, This is the training room there is someone there whom I would like you to meet." He pointed towards two people inside the brightly lit room sitting on some mats a girl and a boy, they looked fairly similar with dark hair , eyes and the same sharp features. The two had yet to notice catrina and the teacher walking towards them as she neared she could pick up on their conversation.

"It doesn't make sense... why would they want to do this to us," the boy was the one speaking catrina noted his tone was angry.

"dami , what have i told you about being so paranoid." the girls eyes flicked up to the boy besides her.

"Then why have they..." dami's voiced faded out as he came to the realization that they had an audience. "Now who could this be sutton ?" the boy turned his whole body towards catrina and mr.sutton, he was staring directly into catrinas eyes. She began to feel uncomfortable and quickly turned away from him to face the slightly shorter girl besides him. The girl made eye contact with catrina and offered her a smile. catrina noted that this girl's eyes were kinder than the boys. Warmer.

"well mr. kikyo this would be your new dorm roommate" said mr.sutton looking at damian.He turned to face the girl "She will be in your dorm room emily, i was hoping that you would be able to show her the ropes ms kikyo." same last name noted catrina , they must be siblings she thought as she assisted the two individuals in front of her.

"That wouldn't be an issue sir" emily said with a smile as damian rolled his eyes behind his sister mocking her. He picked up his gym bag and pointed at his sister "well finish this conversation later" he walked out of the room but not before giving his catrina a look as too which she could only describe as deadly.

" well now that you are all well acquainted i have school business to attend to." Mr.sutton gave a nod to the two girls and walked out of the room. An awkward silence feel over the girls, catrina began to look at the ground a wave of nervousness falling over her at the thought of having to make new friends all over again.

"Im emily" catrinas eyes snapped up to look at the tall girl in front of her , emily was holding her hand out waiting for catrina to shake it. Catrina took emily's hand "i'm catrina"

" well catrina follow me , mrs sutton probably gave you a really boring tour of campus so i'll just go over the basics"

"I wasn't even paying attention to his tour " admitted catrina , surprised by how relaxed she felt around emily. She hadn't felt this comfortable with someone since before her powers manifested.

Emily laughed " i figured that much, I remember my first tour with him, like six weeks after that i was still confused between where my classes were." emily paused " how about this, since i don't have that much time before ceremony to give you a proper tour, right now i'll just show you to our dorm room and then you stick with me and my friends during the ceremony and i'll be able to show you all the classrooms later."

" umm, sure" the last thing that catrina really wanted was to force herself into someone's group but she also didn't want to be the weird kid who walked into the wrong class and everyone begins to laugh and talk about.

"Well first things first , you already missed the first day of classes, but don't worry about that too much it was just syllabuses and entry tests about your power level"
