This morning was one of the best days in my life, I had won, Me Crystal Rayle a nobody who is hidden by her sisters shadow has won a Draw to enter Hopes Peak Academy For The Gifted Souls, Yes I know its a long name for some stupid fancy school, but they couldn't  have called it just hopes peak as that was all ready a school, this was a brand new building, a brand new academy, a brand new life for me that I got to be a part of. But their was a teeny tiny problem. My sister was selected as well to go guess I wasn't out of her shadow yet.

"Crystal, Crystal, Earth to Crystal" I hear a faint voice as a come back to reality after spacing out , My sister was speaking to me her voice sounded in a rush "come on hurry up and finish packing we have to leave in ten minuets!" "Okay mom." I sighed as I finished packing all my clothing and a few books "I'm ready to leave" I grabbed a blank and white bear as I left my room. I had it ever since My sister won it from a carnival game when we were kids That was before I was smothered in her shadow. Leaving my room I looked back a feeling of sadness hit me, as I would have to leave my family and friends for a while. Slowly my body took me downstairs and exited the house as my sister was waiting for me "You ready to go little Sis" I nodded and began walking with her, surprisingly we weren't that far away from the new Academy It was only a twenty minute walk from where we lived so its not like we cant visit our family on the weekends.

Once we arrived I stared up at the tall building "wow their must be at least four floors to that" I spoke to my sister but she all ready started to walk inside "Love you to Hag!" I yelled. My sister turned around and flipped me the bird "hate you two Witch!" She joked back  and quickly vanished inside. I giggled and began to take my first step onto campus

"GAH" what was this feeling, I've never felt it before. I tried to move but I couldn't it was as if my body turned to stone, I tried to speak but no words came it felt as if I was being strangled. This feeling, I've only seen it on shows or in books occasionally, this was despair the purest of despair, utterly hopeless I stood their, my body getting tired as my vision slowly faded to black what ever was happening to me or going to happen was something truly horrible. my vision faded to complete darkness and I knew my life at Hopes Peak Academy For Gifted Souls was doomed to be despair on only despair.

All I felt was a cold and empty feeling of despair, it was suffocating me. I couldn't do anything to stop this.....I wont do anything to stop this.

My vision slowly came back, I could tell I was siting in a desk by the feeling of the wooden table that was connected by a metal bar to a chair, it was a standard  School desk. I slowly sat up and began to look around the room. the windows where covered by metallic sheets and screwed in by giant screws "strange" I muttered to myself under my breath as I stood up and began to walk around. "Maybe some teacher found me and brought me here" and "maybe the windows are like this in case of natural disasters" 

I soon found a note in the hands of a penguin plush that had the name Mrs. Rayle that was my last name. i picked up the plush and the note reading it: "Hello Mrs. Rayle, Welcome to Hopes Peak Academy For The Gifted Souls, you may be wondering why the windows are barricaded but, everything will be explained in due time. Please make your way towards the gym: their is a map on the back: by 8:00 o'clock to meet your fellow classmates and an expatiation of whats going on, your principal". Placing the note on the desk I looked at the plush that was in my hand. Was it always a penguin? I thought to myself before thinking back in my mind to search for the answer. Yes I've always had my penguin plush.

I began to walk towards the gym following the directions on my map. "I should be arriving on time." I thought to myself as I walked through the gym doors. Upon entering I saw a lot of other students in the room. "I believe I am the last one here..." I thought as a commanding male wearing brown slacks and a brown pull over sweater, spoke up "This makes Sixteen of us here." "ya just as I thought, the last to arrive."
