Warning: This was written when I was very little. This is not at all what I wanted to do with the plot. This story is being properly re-written (almost unrecognizable) and is titled "Paper Crowns" please check it out

With just one glance, Robus Academy will completely blow you away. its grandness and beauty will leave you breathless. You'd be falling for the trap, laid ever so cleverly. A prime example of the saying "things aren't always what they seem" Just like how certain students aren't what they seem either. Certain teachers, certain parts of Robus Academy's history... we've all got our secrets, some should just never be told. Some should stay buried and unknown. yet they aren't. If evil ever decides to strike, does the human race have a form of defense? Or will they fail and fall? Love is known as the cure for everything, yet it becomes poison when mixed with things more deadly.
