----Elizabeth----

I saw Nocturn Academy and didn't expect it to look so... so old. I took a quick look at my watch. Crap! Its almost 8! I wanted to admire the beautiful carvings of flowers on the door but I have no time! I ran inside into the dark hallway. I had no time to be scared of what might come out in the dark, so I ran as fast as I can. I stopped in front of a door, which said ''Principal's Office". Without knocking I barged in. Well, I actually almost tripped since the opened itself!

 "I'm so sorry, I'm late!" I shouted. The principal was sitting behind her desk and two girls were sitting on the chair. The other girl was a red head; she also had freckles slightly visible. Did she cry? The other girl was dirty blonde; she looked strong despite her fragile appearance. Together they look like a girl band.

 "Okay, Ms. Elizabeth, take your seat." the principal said. I placed my luggage on the floor and took a seat next to the redhead. "Please listen carefully." The three of nodded our heads.  "First, Ms. Penelope and Ms. Elizabeth, you will have the same classes with Laura. Here are your list of subjects and this;" She opened her drawer and took out two papers "is the map inside and outside of the school." I took it and so did she. I placed it in my folder.

 "Second, for the 3th time here in Nocturn Academy, I think this is a computer error, but we are completely fine with it, that 3 students stay inside one dorm room." Ms., I looked at her name plate, Ms. Divianne said.

 Ms. Divianne explained the time we should get up and the time to sleep. "This rule also implies to the three of you. Hall monitors go out around 11 pm. If you are caught outside your room, immediately, you will be sent to principal’s office and will be given detention."

 "Okay. One more thing," Her right... red eye flashed? "I am your guardian. Think of me as your mother." She smiled. What?! She's part cyborg? I didn't notice it! "Okay, one last thing, again, your room is 113 at the 2nd building at the 5th floor." She said.

 She dismissed us. I stood up and picked up my luggage then went outside the door. I waited for the other two. Finally they came out. "Hi, I'm Cinnamon Penelope, you can call me Cinn. I'm so happy to spending three whole years with girls!" Cinn said. She looks very nice and she's straight forward. "I'm Laura Milson... You can call me Laura. Nice to meet you." She said looking down. I think she is the shy type. "Hi. I'm Elizabeth Smith, I look forward to meeting you." I said.

 "Then let's go to our room..." Laura said. The three of us walked toward the back entrance to the 2nd building. We were going in when Cinn stopped walking. "Cinn? Are you coming?" I asked. Cinn snapped out. "Huh? Oh, yeah..." she looked down and her eyebrows were furrowed as she hurried.

Cut in POV:

----Cinn----

 The place seemed familiar... What could this place have to do with me? When I stepped on the entrance itself, I felt something rush from my chest to my head. I stopped in the middle of my tracks. What the hell was that?! "Cinn? Are you coming?" Elizabeth asked. "Huh? Oh, yeah..." I replied.  I was so confused. Might have been some kind of electricity rush?

Back to...

 ----Elizabeth-----

 Inside the 2nd building, however, was completely different than the first building. Everything was white except for the carpet, which was colored blood red. White marble floors, Cream colored curtains and the only thing black were the little spaces between the tiles which made it easier to look at.

 This is like Cinderella's Ball come true! "Whoa. It looks like my penthouse. Only much wider..." Cinn said. "Wait, you own a penthouse?" Laura asked, a little amazed. "Well, my father is the president of the Monteria Company and I am the only child." Cinn replied.

 "Well let's go to the 5th floor, let's play a thousand questions later in our room!" I said. We all agreed to my proposal and went up the stairs. "Dear students," We looked back and saw a tall man with raven dark hair looking at us "there is an elevator here."

 We looked at each other and walked down. "Perhaps, you three are the new transferee's?" He asked. "Oh, yes. We are." We all replied in unison. "Well, then I shall have the pleasure of bringing you to your dorms." He added.

 Oh, he's quite a gentleman!

 "Room 113 am I right?" He asked. We all nodded. "I'll have your luggages." He handed his hand. "Oh, no. We can carry it." Laura said. "No. It is my job to help." He took our luggages and walked toward the elevator. He moved slightly away from the door of the elevator and faced the wall. "Umm, I think you missed..." Cinn said.

 He looked back at us and smiled. He pressed the wall as if there was a button. Then slowly, a large square-like pod opened. It was big enough to fit a person. We were dumbfounded. The man placed our bag in it and dialed something on the keypad at the side. "Is this really a school dorm?" I said.

"Yeah right, it's more of like a ten star hotel... You know, all grand and stuff." Cinnamon added.

 "Ten star?" Laura wondered out. "Yeah, you know, like----" Cinn was cut off. The raven haired man gave the 'excuse-me-cough'. "The elevator is ready." We all went in. We stood silent in the elevator as it went up. The familiar elevator song playing. Then the certain *ding!* we've been waiting came. "This way, girls." The man said, gesturing us to go forward. We walked a white-gold hallway until we reached our room.

 "You're going to love this." He said. He opened the door and revealed a huge suite. "Wow. I told you, Laura! A ten-star hotel, dorm school!" Cinnamon said. Laura laughed. "You're right!

 I saw the man, smile at Cinns actions. "Your bags are here ladies." We looked at him. He pointed at the side. Indeed, our bag was there. "Well, ladies. Class starts the next day after tomorrow, which will give you enough time to unpack. If you need anything, please do not hesitate to call me. My name is Raven Miles. Nice to meet you." He smiled. But I think not at me or Laura. He was looking at Cinn who was at the corner, looking outside.

 "I'll leave my card here." He said. He looked around, and said "Then, I shall be going."

"Okay, thanks." I said. "Thank you, Raven." Laura said. "Oh. Okay then. Thank you." Cinn said. With a smile.

 I think these 3 years might be worth it.
