"Cassandra"

"Cassandra wake up!"

"CASSANDRA IT'S YOUR FIRST DAY OF SCHOOL!"

By then not only had I woken up, but I had also been able to hear her with out her shouting at me. She hiked up the stairs and threw a pillow in my face. I shot up.

"Cassandra you're going to be late. Some Rye toast is on the table along with some cactleberry juice. " she confirmed.

"Now get up and put your uniform on. We have to be early today to pick up your family crest, along with a couple of opals, Garnets and diamonds for Dragonology. It will help them be friends with you." she said.

"Wait, where is my uniform?'' I asked.

"It's in your library, It was the only place that was unlocked last night. And before I forget, make sure you lock up all of you're rooms." she replied.

I sulked across the room to get my uniform and put it on. I had to wear a white blouse with a grey sweater over the button down blouse. The sweater had a Pouspion emblem on it.

This animal has a scaly light gray hide and a body shaped like a hedgehog's. Its face resembles that of a snake and its eyes remind you of a squirrel's. It has a pair of mid-length antlers. Andromeda told me that they have a thin, but strong skin covered in thin feathers, which is usually either black, dark blue or light silver or a combination of these colors.They live in wet areas and are extremely rare. They're omnivores and their beaks and long tongue are ideal for eating grasses.They're crepuscular and rely on their taste buds and sight to get around. They do have wide beaks, but their sense of smell is not that great. These creatures are quite timid and their nomadic lifestyle has made them placid in terms of defending territory. They mate once a year and they mate with multiple partners throughout life. Which, with their fairly short lifespans, is quite common among other species as well. They are supposed to represent bravery, wisdom and unity.

Over that I had to wear my long fireproof cloak with was a pretty shade of pale grayish blue. I also had to wear knee high black fireproof and venom proof boots. We were supposed to wear venom proof tights which were also the color of our mascot. I wore my gloves and googles only in specific subjects.

I rushed down the stairs so I could eat my breakfast. The food was once again unsurprisingly delicious. I opened the pantry to make my lunch, but found my lunch already made. I took it and ran upstairs to get my backpack. Surprisingly the uniform was very lightweight, so it made it easier to run. When I ran back, downstairs, Andromeda was waiting for me. I rechecked my bag one more time before I left. Then we started our journey to Odin Institute.

As I walked up the stairs to my new school: Odin Institute, I adjusted my new family crest. I was really worried. I was in level 4 and I did not know what to expect. I climbed up the stairs and attempted to make my way to my first class, Dragonology taught by Sir Derek Aston. When I got there I barley had enough time to put my bag down before he greeted me. The eccentric looking man smiled at me and told me to choose a place to sit. I identified the kid with scraped up knees and sat next to him.

"Call me Sir Aston", Sir Aston said," It is wondrous to meet all of you. First I want to explain how this year will work. The book has been split into five parts. Each part plus activities will last about a month."

"What about the tests?'', someone asked.

"Forget about tests!'' Sir Aston exclaimed." That will give us enough time to interact and to fly dragons. But we will worry about that later."

"For now, these are your permanent spots", he continued. "We are going to learn a little bit about each other by telling your partner a little bit about you. And please be quiet, we do not want to interfere with the other masters boring presentations that I am not letting you spend your time on". he smiled at the class and sat down in his chair.

" You can go first", I said.

"My name is Laurence Walters and I have the most annoying father ever. He makes me call him master. I went to another Island, Earth. I got these things called video games and I love them so much.", he said.

"My name is Cassandra Darksmoke. I was born on Earth and have lived there for my whole life. I moved here three days ago. I am a lisztomaniac, and I was born with this.", I said pointing to my eyes.

"Time to go!" Sir Aston exclaimed.

I walked out of the classroom and up the stairs to get to my next class, Chemistry. When I got there I saw Laurence's father and a embarrassed Laurence.

"Call me Master L.K. Walters", My new teacher commanded. "You are two minutes late" he said, "Sit here and start mixing up the following things to make stuff. You can find it on page one of your Chemistry book. And I hoped none forgot anything" he said with a smirk, "I don't have any extra of anything and I am not giving anyone any of my things."

Everything else that day was fine except chemistry. I sat with the girl I sat next to in healing and chemistry at Lunch. She is very nice, her name is Sonia Arrlen. I got so much homework from my chemistry teacher but I finished it quickly. Andromeda made more boiled Ecobob for dinner and I went to bed.
