I've hidden behind the lens of a camera since I was seven years old. My Mom dying turned me into a shell of a person; I stopped speaking, I hid behind fake glasses, my hair and baggy clothes. I let my father move us around, never asking questions when he would disappear for days at a time from the time I turned thirteen. The only thing that my father did that ever got the rare smile from me was when my birthday came around and he brought me a camera every year. The camera was my security blanket, another eye that I used to see things through, another way to observe even as I pressed that shutter button. Moving to a new town, a new school never fazed me; I never purposely drew attention to myself. I hid behind the camera, like I always did and that was when I started capturing them just like they started capturing my heart. *This is a work of Fanfiction based on C.L Stones Ghost Bird and Scarab Beetle Series'. I do not own The Academy or any of the Characters. They are all C.L's.* THIS STORY WILL CONTAIN MATURE CONTENT! I WILL PUT A AUTHORS NOTE WHERE TO EXPECT IT.

"Here be dragons" A phrase meaning dangerous or unexplored territories, frequently used in the 1700s and earlier by cartographers on faraway, uncharted corners of the map. It was meant to warn people away from dangerous areas where sea monsters were believed to exist. It's now used metaphorically to warn people away from unexplored areas or untried actions. Beware, this isn't a story about good people doing heroic things...no, this is a story about the bad guys. ***This is a fan-fiction based off CL Stone's Ghostbird series. The characters belong to her and I take no credit or financial gain from this story. I took creative license over the story line, but it's for entertainment purposes only!*** ***This is a dark horror story with some violent and gory imagery. If these types of things disturb you, I advise you not to read. It's not all about the blood, of course; humor and perhaps a little love is mixed in.***

the ghost bird fam are all gen z, so there's no way that they don't have a billion group chats and communicate using memes so here you go, some top notch banter with the ghost bird crew (Disclaimer: There is some profanity/swear words within the fic, just because this is the way a few characters - naming no names because we all know who - speak.) ((Also it gets better as it goes on, I swear. First few chapters may be a bit cringey, but they improve!) ---------------------------------------------------- ʟᴜᴋᴇ: i think i saw Dr. Green talking to a cat in japanese when he was really sleep deprived because apparently "they know Japanese better than English because they're nekos" ɴᴀᴛʜᴀɴ: What's a neko ɢᴀʙʀɪᴇʟ: it's cat ᴠɪᴄᴛᴏʀ: Neko is just "cat" in Japanese ᴋᴏᴛᴀ: Gabe, you don't even take Japanese, why do you know? ʟᴜᴋᴇ: he had an Anime phase ɴᴏʀᴛʜ: yeah that sounds about right
