A Twisted Tail

Prologue

Night Raven College is the most known magic college in the world. For years, many students work their tails off to get a split second to stand in its halls. Only a few potential students are selected to attend its classes they have to offer. The students would be made to stand in front of a mirror, that'll tell that student what dorm they'll be put in. Those dorms being Heartslabyul, Savanaclaw, Octavinelle, Scarabia, Pomefiore, Lginhyde, and Disamnia.

The each dorms have their own respected leaders. The only issue is, only a few of the nonstudents know who they are. It's uncommon to see many articles or new head lines about the dorm leaders, little alone the school all together. The only news headline that appears is the school news paper that normally has the normal 'Which dorm is the top for the month' or something to do with sports. I could really care less for both honestly.

I'm Lindsey Khan. And before you ask yes, I am the granddaughter of the Shere Khan. All I really know about him is that he was hungry for power in the rain forest and he was the 'top cat'. That and the fact he wanted to get rid of the man cub. But we don't like to talk about that among my family. The only two thing that makes me look like my grandfather was the my tail and my right ear. My tail looked like a copy to his and my right ear had a piece of it missing. We don't know why I was just born with it. I'm so happen to be one of the selected students to see if I have the potential to be a student at Night Raven. I already know I have the potential so I don't see why the head master don't just hand me my diploma now

About 350 other students are gathered in a singular room. It was decent-sized, just enough to hold the students, 7 floating coffins, and the 7 dorm leaders. Well, what we can guess what was the dorm leaders. All you can really see was the mouths on all of them. They were coated in a purple cloak with golden designs that differed depending on the dorm from what you can guess.

In the middle of the room was the about a 4 foot mirror. With a darken silver frame with a silver crown design ontop. It was floating in the center by what it looks like by a green line shining from the roof to the circular steps below it. A poison green fire slowly showed itself once the last bit of the students finally crammed into the room.

Only two of the blank faces looked familiar almost immediately. One being Maddie, or Madeleine Hightopp. The other Leif Hallowlantern. I couldn't push through the krowd to reach them. Trust me I would if I could.

Madeleine Hightopp looked just like her grandfather The Mad Hatter. It wasn't hard to tell, she had the famously known red cloak and top hat. She had the facial expression just like the hatter would have at times like this. You would mistake her for the hatter from behind if the hatter was a girl that is. She isn't crazy nor mad. Just..off her top hat a little bit.

Leif Hallowlantern was kind of a strange one here and there. I'm not completely sure who or what line he comes from. All I can say about him is he is doesn't understand something he'll question it, then join along. Don't get me mistaken, he is a nice fellow. There just isn't alot to say about him. His skin was as white as a boneb same with his hair that he kept pulled back in a loose ponytail. He's normally is having tea with Maddie when I spot them everynow and then.

The once lighten room slowly fade to only having 7 spot lights above the leaders. And of course the mirror and it's green light and fire.

A white tall figure steped from the darkness to the 8th spot light behind the mirror. He wore a purple hat with a raven mask that covered his eyes and nose. And had a purple dress cloak around his shoulders with black raven feathers. He was standing with a black cane in his right hand.

"Good evening students, I'm Dir-"

"OH MY GOD IT'S DIRE CROWLEY!" A group of girls started screaming near by. Some of the guys started growling at the girls fangirling over the head master. My ears folded backwards at the loud group starting to fangirl. Oh my lord, please shut up.

He put a hand up and the fangirling almost stopped immediately. The growling took a minute or two for it to come to a complete stop.

"Yes, I am Dire Crowley. I'm the head master here at Night Raven for those who don't know already." He scanned the room a little while speaking.

"As most of you know why you're here. You had been selected to see if you have the potential to study under this roof. When you're name is called please stand in front of the Mirror of Darkness. Then and only then you'll know if you are capable of being this school. You'll be called to come stand in front of the mirror. It'll tell you your dorm if you have the potential. If you aren't given a dorm and is asked to step down, please don't try to break the mirror. God knows how many studentd have tried already."

There is some small mumbles here and there. You can feel the room start to tense up from everyone getting scared at this point. Only 65% of these students will be picked to stay. The other will be asked to leave.

I crossed my arms knowing I won't be sent home to start with. My only worry was I won't get Savanaclaw for a Dorm. God forbid that.

"If you are asked to step down you'll be asked to be go ad stand where you're at. While those with a dorm will stand behind their respective dorm leader." Dire looked to his sides at the evenly spread out leaders.

"They'll lead you back to the dorms once the event is over. So now." He looked down and bowed with his arms spread out.

"Let's begin."
