"Everyone here has secrets. You have yours, I have mine, and the school has its own."
~Sasha Ivanov, Year 2, Optima Eruditione Academia
Optima Eruditione Academia is a myth. Everyone knows about it, but no one has ever found it. Satellites have mapped the skies of the Earth to search for this floating miracle. The poles, the equator, no place on Earth was left un-turned for the search of this floating haven.
As the legend goes among the commoners says, every year a handful of teenagers selected by the gods themselves are selected, who go to this school. The school is regarded to have been training the brightest mind, since 310 BC, after being founded by Aristotle, in Greece.
The school was originally built on land, but in 16th century a group of students at the Academy succeeded to defy gravity and made the school float above land, unseen by all.
But then, they are all rumors. Nobody know what the truth is. Yet, to till this date bright kids from the neighbourhoods all around the world go missing for unknown reasons, only to appear after three years.
Doesn't that make you wonder whether all of this is true?

At Rosebridge University, Mirabel and Caden meet again-not as lovers, but as best friends carrying unspoken history. They broke up in high school when Mirabel's grades slipped, and she blamed the distraction of love. Caden let her go, believing they'd find their way back someday.

Every four months, the school hosts tournaments that are basically legal ways to commit violence - fun, right?

Yeah, welcome to the Academy of Students with Extraordinary Abilities. AEA-Xylkor. And leading their "student armada"? Delia - whose mom can barely pay next month's rent. So... saving the galaxy might just be her best shot at skipping rent. Skateboarder, Rapper,Mathematician, all spices in the 6-ingredient broth. They're mostly tenth graders. They're confused. And apparently, they're the universe's last hope. A hidden force is rising, and it starts with one of them - harboring a power that could either save everything... or destroy it. Idk tho... So yeah. No pressure. Oh, and me? I just hope you enjoy it. Watch out though, because once you start reading, well... good luck stopping. 😏😂
This is Not My Home
What defines a home? Maybe it's where we lay our heads at night. Maybe it's the people we love and care for. Maybe it's a place away from civilization, or a feeling that can come only when we are at our greatest moments. Ollie Sky thought she knew the answer, enrolling into an academy she'd been asked to join. She was going to find a new home, one away from her family. She was going to make friends and join communities. Learn new things and perfect old skills. Life had been good, living in that academy. As one of its youngest students, she was always daunted by the large hallways, the professors, the students themselves. But most of all, the technology. Including time travel. Looking back on the question she was asked so long ago, it becomes obsolete and answerless. She has no home, no academy, no family, and no friends. A sixteen-year-old, trapped in a timeline that is not her own. ~ : ~ | + | ~ : ~ This is a prequel to Name by @Mizuthe_cat, following the character "Ollie."

She makes friends with the other kids, and they all join up against the scientists at the school, those that like to do tests and even experiments on them. Will the group ever escape the school? Or will the appearance of a new teen and 'experiment C' do them in?Complete

"Almost, Always" 🍁🌹 Some people enter your life like whispers...soft, sudden, and gone before you can hold on. She didn't expect to see him again. Not after years, not like this. Not when she had finally learned how to forget the boy who never truly left her mind. But fate isn't loud..it's quiet, casual... cruel.

This is a memory rewritten..with the ending she deserved.
