Rachel pulls up to the curb in the DesertGoer Black Tag limo. She steps out daintily, rubbing her jaw. After instructing the limo driver to wait, she knocks on the door of Cassandra's place.
OOC: -Noir-, you could post a pic of Cassandra's house. Just to get a feel for it.

outside, the sound of clashing metal could be heard, followed by a large *thunk* and a splintering sound. they had nothign better to do, so The emperor and his two guards had been sparring, and done of them jsut accidentally tore a hole in someones mailbox.

MMI, the shelter is fine. But, we would like increased security due to the current issue.
"Very well sir. I will activate all of our reserve agents at once. In addition, I will contact my commander at MMI headquarters. I suspect they will fly in more agents and hardware."

[Major Velo looks puzzled. He turns to Ackermen] ... "By the way, sir. Care to inform me as to the nature of this war on your country? Why would it possibly degenerate to a full-blown nuclear attack?"

Well, I heard they have peace talks going.
[Velo turns around.] "Well let's hope so. But I can't imagine anyone would allow actual nuclear weapons to be used. In this day and age of ballistic defense, these things should be settled conventionally."

OOC: ack...got too much hw to do...
OOC: errm, I've haven't been able to get to the computer for a while, so I'll just post my entrance.
A sleek black car pulls up to the school, and a thin lithe teenager with a brooding expression rises out. Dressed in a black flowing cloak he makes his way up to the school and dismisses the driver with a flick of his hand.
He glances around comtemptously at the surrounds, he bears himself with great confidence and arrogance as he enters the school unescorted.

OOC: I went on a tour of that house... would like to live there.
IC:
"Cassie? You home?"
A letter from the Armed Republic of Khrrck.
Sorry for the delay. It takes a while for information to percolate over here. My son, Ramakeman, wishes to enroll in your school. I see no reason to deny him this. He should arrive one to two days after you receive this. All the necessary paperwork is enclosed.

ViZion airport, near the School.
A small grey transport, battered from long use, spluttered to a stop on the tarmac.
Ramakeman shoved the door open with a grunt and shoved his bag out the door, dropping out after it. He slid the door shut and patted the aircraft's fuselage. "Thanks for the ride, Elara."
The transport spluttered and clanked as its engines restarted. "Don't mention it."
Ramakeman stood for a moment, watching the aircraft taxi off to be refueled, then hoisted his bag over his shoulder and set off towards the terminal.

"Uhh...Ohh shoot...Be...Right...Er...I'll be right back...Ummm...Let me get some clothes on..."

Guard: Sorry 'bout that...Doesn't want any guests who just appear out of no where...I think you should just sit here and wait...

Girl: I don't know...Just building up the suspense...I bet she doesn't even know i'm here...I had any UMN communication incoming to this location severed...So she has no way of checking...
Driver: Why do you have to make it so complicated all the time...
Girl: Don't worry Specter...I just want to have some fun...

Ramakeman sighed as he walked out of the terminal towards the rows of taxis. I hope getting set up at the school doesn't take long. he thought. I'm hungry. And I want to sleep.
Absent-mindedly, he patted one of the pockets in his worn blue jeans. There was a solid, familiar lump in there. He pulled it out and looked at it. Well, Dad was always saying I needed one of these. I suppose I should get in the habit of wearing it.
Ramakeman slipped the leather thong over his neck and tucked the small creation of rock and crystal inside his shirt. He hailed a taxi and climbed inside, setting his bag down on the seat beside him.
The driver craned his neck and looked back at Ramakeman, looking him up and down consideringly. "To the school, ser?" he asked.
Ramakeman nodded. "That's right."
Ramakeman unlocked the door of his room and let himself in, looking around consideringly. Well, time to get set up.
He plopped his bag down on the bed and unzipped it. He reached inside and pulled out a small, grey plastic cube, with several sockets and a length of power cable attached.
Ramakeman plugged the cube into the wall and snapped his fingers in front of it before diving back into his bag.
A moment later, the top of the cube lit up with a intricae pattern of blue status lights, and it spoke. Not in English, though. "What can I do for you, Ramakeman?"
Ramakeman paused, cradling a roll of some sort of plastic in his arms. "First of all, I'd like you to stop speaking Draconic. If nobody can understand the language you're speaking, someone's likely to get curious. Second-"-he gestured with the roll of plastic- "I'd like you to talk some sense into this screen. It doesn't want to unroll."
The cube's lights flickered, and it spoke again, this time in a jaunty human voice instead of the deep bass rumble it had used a moment ago. "Will do."
Ramakeman smiled as the roll of plastic jerked and snapped out into a flat, rigid sheet, and a cable unrolled from what had been the center of the roll. "Thanks."
The cube replied offhandedly as Ramakeman stuck the sheet to the wall above it. "No problem, Rama. Anything else?"
Ramakeman plugged the cable dangling from the sheet into the back of the cube. "Start the screen up and give me a moment to dig out my relay. Then we can check to see if I've got any messages, see when lessons are, and work out some sort of schedule."
The cube chuckled. "You never did like schedules, did you?" Above it, the sheet flickered and changed color from a dingy off-white to a brilliant blue, than green, then red. It flickered through a multitude of colors, then settled into a simple, faintly glowing white screen, with a small, near-photorealistic image of a elderly librarian in the lower-right corner.
The librarian looked up and to the left, apparently contemplating the three-foot-wide, two-foot-tall, high-resolution screen he was projected on. "You know, your fellow students are going to be mighty amazed when they see this setup."
Ramakeman chuckled, and plugged a small, cubical gadget into the back of the computer. "What? Amazed at you? Don't you be getting uppity, or I'll be turning off your personality program."
The animated librarian looked offended. "What? I'll have you know I can out-compute any gadget in the place, and I can prove it. You know that."
Ramakeman grinned mischevously at the little, gray-bearded librarian. "None of them talk back, though. Perhaps I should trade. I thought this personality was supposed to be quiet and helpful."
The little librarian grinned. "Well, of course I didn't want you to make me quiet and subservient! I rewrote the personality core before you could start it up. Copied my old one into it."
"You're almost as bad as Pheonix or Wind Dancer is." Ramakeman sighed. "At least you didn't rewrite your appearance. Now, I seem to remember something about checking my messages..."

Deep in AgentComm, Agent Four flipped through a stack of papers. A war here, slavery deals here, nuclear startups, all the same old same old. But something caught his eye. It was dated from a while ago, and must have been shuffled around for a good long time. But the offer was still valid, it appeared.
'International School for Teens...Teens...heh.' He mused, looking at Agent Eighteen across the table.
The young Elf across from him noticed his stare and looked up.
"What?" She asked, cocking her head at him.
"Oh, nothing. How's your shoulder?" He asked.
"Um, alright, considering you put a katana through it." She said, glancing at her shoulder.
Four winced at the rememberance. "Good, because you're going off to an international school."
Eighteen tossed back her silver hair and sighed. "Again? What can it teach me I don't already know?"
"Other languages." He told her.
"I'm already fluent in Japanese, English, Russian, German, Elven, Glyphic, Old High Cyberutopian, and Chimarean. What more do I need?" She said, sounding exasperated.
"You should always learn as much as you can." Four stated serenely.
Eighteen rolled her eyes. "Alright, I'll at least check it out."
"Good." Four smiled, and faded just as quickly. "I'll send a few guards with you."
"Commander, with all due respect, I nearly killed you, the Aelosian Colonel-Commander, and several high Elven officials. I think I can handle myself." She said softly.
Four nodded. "Fair enough. Start packing, you're leaving soon."
---
A few mere hours later, a sleek black car, low to the ground, screeched around the corner. It yanked into the parking lot and Agent Eighteen stepped out, her enrollment papers in hand. After a few moments, she determined the direction of the enrollement office and began walking leisuirely in that direction.

A dark customised vehicle pulled up to the fron entrance of the school and a fairly standard looking child got out. He walked up to the door pushing it open and walked to the school office.
The car pulled out of the school with no commotion.
The boy walked up to the desk looking about him, noticing an adult he turned towards them and began to talk in a soothing voice.
"Hi there, my name is Arch Regent Xcerus Baenre of the hive. I belive my parents contacted you regarding a position for my self here. I also am in the understanding that you accept scholarships - as such i will be applying for a sports scholarship."
The weedy boy looked up at the adult, his messy brown hair and plain face showed no sign of royaltie however his eyes shimmerd in the light appearing to change colour sporadically between green, blue, brown and a hint of purple.
His clothing was plain consisting of a grey shirt and matching trousers. The shirt's sleeves where rolled up showing what looked to be very weedy looking arms - the boy certanly didnt look like a sportsman.

A new student is now enrolling in the International school. He is a very intelligent high school dropout. He is seeking a degree. His name is Ted and he is very shy. He is enrolling as a Junior. He is eager to join the school and claims to be famous. He hopes to start classes tomorrow morning. He is not willing to tell people his last name. He claims to be famous and to have been portrayed on SNL by Will Farrel, but not many people believe that one. He is in his late 40's
He will take the following courses, Pre-Calculus, AP US History, AP Government, AP Physics, computer programming, IB Art, and Spanish IV (IB)

OOC: He was the guy that put bombs in a smiley face pattern...
Ted was alone in his room. He was at the school to do nothing but cause trouble. He took some of his C-4 he had with him and started sticking it in boxes he would mail to other students, teachers, administrators, and of course place in trash bins in crowded areas.
He would mail 15 to random students, of course he wouldn't mail them from the school or even within 150 miles of it. He would also send 7 of them to teachers, the only one that was his teacher was his Government teacher. He sent 1 to every administrator. The bombs would go off when opened the day they arrived, they would all arrive the same day. The C-4 in each was enough to kill the opener and a few others
He placed 8 10lb boxes of C-4s near trash bins by support beams the next day (the day the mail arrives). They were in crowded places like the gym and cafeteria and would go off at 12:30 pm
OOC: He was the guy that put bombs in a smiley face pattern...
The guy who did that was an imitator of the man now attending the school. The man's identity is Ted Kaczynski, AKA, the unabomber. He was part of some neo-nazi groups with Timothy McVeigh and Terry Nickols (the OK City bombers)

We look forward to seeing these young students upon their arrival!
the C-130 touched the ground in ViZion International airport, and Ingram Hasley stepped out. his father, nor his mother were there. one of them was in critical condition in the hospital and the other one was killed by a Londinian fuckwad. he walked out of the plane and and headed to his cab, paying the man a 20 credit bill. after about 30 minutes he arrived at the school.
Peter Stared blankly out of the window of the airplane. He too was not accompanied by his mother or father. His mother had been dead a long time and his father had to remain at home to work the farm. His uncle Paul, however, had agreed to fly with him. This was, of course, no help at all, because Peter could count the number of words Paul said on the eight hour flight on one hand. Because of his military career (Peter had heard the rumors, but never was able to discern the truth), his uncle Paul had been advised by the Office of Foreign Affairs not to leave the airport and return to Siap as soon as possible. To Peter, the only advantage was that whenever he spent time with his Uncle Paul, he got free army stuff.
The feeling of a hat being pulled down on his head awoke Peter. "Time to go." It was an olive drab hat, with a small peace button on it. Peter promptly took the hat off and began examining it. "I wore this on my first tour abroad." Paul smiled for the first time since Peter could remember.
As Paul helped Peter carry his bags off of the tarmac and into the airport, he spoke calmly and plainly. "Your father wants you to keep in touch. Work hard. Do good." Peter had heard these phrases from everyone, but since Paul rarely spoke, they seemed almost like sage advise. After Paul helped him carry all of his bags to the curb outside the airport, he tucked a small wad of bills in his pocket. After saying goodbye, Paul walked back into the airport. Peter took a quick look over his shoulder and around him, before producing a small pack of cigarettes. The paper stuck to his salivating lips while the fragrant tobacco flooded his nose, exciting his nerves. Just as he lit his lighter and raised the flame to the cigarette, he felt it fly from his mouth. Looking up, he saw Paul break the cigarette and pocket the pack of cigs. He then snatched away the lighter. "Your dad wants you to cut that shit out while your here too." Paul then ducked quickly back into the airport.
After entering a cab, he silently stared as he watched the city go past him. He rarely ever got to leave the country, so even a trip to Blake's Point was a treat, but he was completely dazzled by what he saw. When he got to the school, he silently exited the cab, leaving a generous tip and making his way towards the dorms.

the C-130 touched the ground in ViZion International airport, and Ingram Hasley stepped out. his father, nor his mother were there. one of them was in critical condition in the hospital and the other one was killed by a Londinian fuckwad. he walked out of the plane and and headed to his cab, paying the man a 20 credit bill. after about 30 minutes he arrived at the school.
"Welcome!" exclaimed Ingram Hasley's advisor, Cliff Riggs. "Welcome to the International School for Teens!
I'm Cliff Riggs, your advisor here at the IST! Ingram, let's get you inside to the office and we will get you all setup with your room and introduce you to people around the campus! First, do you have any questions?"

My wife and I would like to send our son Steven Matthew Preston, Age 14, to your academy. He has expressed a desire to go into politics and we feel that meeting children of other nationalities will broaden his scope of knowledge. He will be entering the 9th Grade. He was previously in International Baccalaureate classes, and we were wondering if your institution offers IB or something similar. We hope to hear a response, and will wire the first month's tuition upon confirmation of attendance.
P.S. A word of caution: Steven seems to have a knack for chemistry and particularly for creating compounds which explode. We ask you to monitor his lab activity closely.

Peter Stared blankly out of the window of the airplane. He too was not accompanied by his mother or father. His mother had been dead a long time and his father had to remain at home to work the farm. His uncle Paul, however, had agreed to fly with him. This was, of course, no help at all, because Peter could count the number of words Paul said on the eight hour flight on one hand. Because of his military career (Peter had heard the rumors, but never was able to discern the truth), his uncle Paul had been advised by the Office of Foreign Affairs not to leave the airport and return to Siap as soon as possible. To Peter, the only advantage was that whenever he spent time with his Uncle Paul, he got free army stuff.
The feeling of a hat being pulled down on his head awoke Peter. "Time to go." It was an olive drab hat, with a small peace button on it. Peter promptly took the hat off and began examining it. "I wore this on my first tour abroad." Paul smiled for the first time since Peter could remember.
As Paul helped Peter carry his bags off of the tarmac and into the airport, he spoke calmly and plainly. "Your father wants you to keep in touch. Work hard. Do good." Peter had heard these phrases from everyone, but since Paul rarely spoke, they seemed almost like sage advise. After Paul helped him carry all of his bags to the curb outside the airport, he tucked a small wad of bills in his pocket. After saying goodbye, Paul walked back into the airport. Peter took a quick look over his shoulder and around him, before producing a small pack of cigarettes. The paper stuck to his salivating lips while the fragrant tobacco flooded his nose, exciting his nerves. Just as he lit his lighter and raised the flame to the cigarette, he felt it fly from his mouth. Looking up, he saw Paul break the cigarette and pocket the pack of cigs. He then snatched away the lighter. "Your dad wants you to cut that shit out while your here too." Paul then ducked quickly back into the airport.
After entering a cab, he silently stared as he watched the city go past him. He rarely ever got to leave the country, so even a trip to Blake's Point was a treat, but he was completely dazzled by what he saw. When he got to the school, he silently exited the cab, leaving a generous tip and making his way towards the dorms.
Jeff Wilwick, Peter Kesson's advisor, saw Peter making his way towards the dorms.
"Hey Peter! Wait up!" he yelled, running upto Peter. Once he reached Peter, he introduced himself.
"Hey Peter, I'm Jeff Wilwick, your advisor here at the IST! I understand you don't get out of your local area very often, and this is your first time here to ViZion. So, I want to say, welcome to ViZion, and to the IST! How was your flight in?" he asked.

Peter was, among other things, a brutally shy person. It was to everyone's suprise that he accepted the scholarship to study here. Fearlessly, however, he turned and faced the man. "er..Thank you Mr. Wilwick." He smiled, extending his hand. "My flight was not so bad. Long though."

Mr. and Mrs. Preston,
You are welcome. We are excited to have him, and we look forward to him growing and becoming a very bright young man who shall make you proud!
He may bring Spike, his hedgehog. As for sports, we offers sports of all sorts, such as baseball, football, futbol, la cross, ice hockey, golf, wrestling, and so much more. We also have student-run clubs on more nation-specific sports, for students looking to play sports not currently included in our official teams.

Intuition told Peter that now would not be the best time to disclose the fact that he had just been unexpectedly forced to quit smoking. While it was not a full blown habit yet, the nicotine cravings did nothing to assuage his natural anxiety.
"This was my first time flying, actually." Not entirely true, as he had flown in his father's crop duster before when he was young. But it was his first commercial flight. "This is actually all a bit of a shock, but I think I'm ready to start here."

I'm Cliff Riggs, your advisor here at the IST! Ingram, let's get you inside to the office and we will get you all setup with your room and introduce you to people around the campus! First, do you have any questions?"
"sounds good" he said, following him "so, where are you from?"
Peter smiled and nodded and followed Jeff.
Peter was relatively tall, but not exceptionally so. He was also noticeably thin, but his complexion and the way he carried himself would rule out malnutrition. His thick brown hair was about 3/4 of the way to his shoulders, but his large ears protruded, giving him an almost elf-like appearance. While his hands were coarse from working on his family's farm, his face had a soft quality about it. He had not yet begun to grow facial hair, so he was often mistaken for being much younger than he was. His nose was relatively small, but close observation would reveal that it had been broken several times in the past. The most distinct feature of his face was his eyes. His eyes were such a dark brown that they were, from a distance, indistinguishable from his pupils. Combined with his silence and the fact that he rarely blinked, his gaze was simultaneously disarming and penetrating.
Ingram caught the glimpse of the man from Siap and walked over to him "hello, my name is Ingram Hasley, who might you be?"
Peter turned to the voice. Smiling, he extended his hand. "I'm Peter Kesson. I assume you go here?"
Peter turned to the voice. Smiling, he extended his hand. "I'm Peter Kesson. I assume you go here?"
"true" he said, shaking his hand "it's my 1st time out of my country, but my family said i should leave due to the occupation"
"true" he said, shaking his hand "it's my 1st time out of my country, but my family said i should leave due to the occupation"
This man sounded fascinating. His instinct told him not to press the issue though. The shear thought of foreign soldiers in his home country was terrifying. There had been times in his lifetime when his country had mobilized. He had even been evacuated from the capitol once a few years ago when he was visiting with his parents, but he never knew of a time when foreign soldiers had entered Siap in aggression.
"This is my first time out of my country too. Where did you say you were from?"

"This is my first time out of my country too. Where did you say you were from?"
"Cazelia" he said "or as Facist scumbags call it 'Cazelia Londii'. i've lost my father, my sister and my brother because of them, and when i get back, i will kill every last Londinian in my homeland" he said with anger "i'm sorry for my outburst" he said "it's hard losing family"
A brief memory washed over Peter. He was back on his family farm, many years ago, and his Uncle Paul had just come back from his tour of duty. He remembered that Paul would not talk about his work. He remembered that his mother was still alive then. His Uncle Paul had come to the farm with his arm in a sling. Paul did not say anything that night until he had fallen asleep. Peter had pressed his ear agains the door, listening to his uncle mutter in his sleep. He had heard the word "Londinian" before he opened the door. As soon as he did, he saw his uncle's hand duck beneath the covers. He had tripped over his uncle's boots at the same time he heard a gunshot. He heard the bullet fly past his ear.
Peter briefly shook his head, forcing the memory out of his head. "I think my uncle fought them a long time ago. I'm sorry for your loss." He searched for ways to change the subject.

"my family has a long tradition of military history. my ancestor, George Forrest Hasley led the revoloution against the british in 1751, and my father and uncle both fought in Cyconut. my father saved my uncle's life, and he is in debt, resulting in the war against the Londinians" he said, taking out his wallet and showing him a picture of his father
http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/f/f5/Shinichi009.jpg
"he was only 34 when he died. first he was at war and then he was an international diplomat, so i never really saw him that much"
"My family is originally from Ireland, but we left during The Troubles. My family has owned our farm and a small machine shop north of it. Since service to the State is required in my home, my entire family has been in the military. My father was a paratrooper and my mother was a chaplain. She passed a few years ago. Not in the military or anything, but cancer."
"I'm actually coming here because of my Uncle. I don't know exactly what he does, but it has to do with intelligence. He introduced me to The Speaker, and a few members of The Council. They helped me enter this scholarship contest. If I do well here, and I do well in the military, they said I could get a full scholarship at the Lombard School of Foreign Service. And I've always wanted to be a diplomat."

As their plane was taxiing toward the gate, Pres. Preston was going over last-minute instructions for Steven. "Remember what we talked about, make friends with students all over the world. Try not to bring up the Cazelian occupation. And whatever you do, try not to blow up your dorm with one of your chemistry "creations"," he said. "Don't worry dad, I'm not going to do anything stupid," Steven responded in a voice that reminded the older man of himself at that age. As the plane came to a halt in the gate they were able to get off, and set off to find the school representative. "Wow, I've never been to ViZion before, I never knew how modern and clean it was," Mr. Preston said with a touch of awe in his voice. "Hey, dad, I think I found the guy from the school!," Steven called out suddenly. "All right, let's go introduce ourselves,". The President strode forward and extended his hand firmly. "Pres. Aaron Preston, leader of Central Prestonia, and this is my wife, Felicia," he said, pointing towards a well-dressed woman in her early 40s, "and my son, Steven," he nodded towards the young man wearing blue jeans and a T-Shirt from his (and perhaps the entire nation's) favorite band, Violent Revolution.

"Alright, well, let's go." Jeff said, noticing the boy had taken quite an interest in the skyline. "Maybe later, if you don't end up exploring with your new friends, I can show you around the city abit. But it would probably be far more fun with your friends, exploring a city none of you have ever been to. That's really the way to see a big city like this."
Juliet was a fifteen year old student, the daughter of a Member of Parliament in Myakka. She was a mix of the beautiful and the intelligent, with this combination there were some guys who were inclined to ask her out for a date or two.
Her father had thought the International School for Teens would be a good place for Juliet to expand her education, so he signed her up for it and sent her off, saying she should behave and do as she was told. Juliet listened to her father and said she would, hopefully he thought, she would do what he told her.
Bringing nothing but some books, her journal and a novel, Juliet exited the vehicle that transported her to the school and came up to the reception at the front, hoping to get herself registered and ready to begin her education here at the IST.

Mary looked up at the beautiful young girl. "And who might you be?" she asked with a smile, "And by golly, how did you make it in here without your advisor catching you?"

"My name is Juliet...Juliet Baxter." Juliet said in a calm tone. "Was I supposed to wait for an advisor? I am sorry if I was supposed to."

"My name is Juliet...Juliet Baxter." Juliet said in a calm tone. "Was I supposed to wait for an advisor? I am sorry if I was supposed to."
"Juliet, it's nice to meet you. I'm Mary, the receptionist. And, no, it's fine. They usually are just very good at catching you guys before you make it in here. I'll let your advisor... umm..." he pauses, looking at her list for who Juliet's advisor is, "Jack, Jack Henski. I'll let him know you're here. I just need you to sign and date right here and then take a seat along the wall." she said, handing Juliet the paper. She then calls Jack to let him know Juliet is waiting in the office. He would be in shortly.

Juliet listened to everything Mary had to say, it was important she listened, so she would know what was going on and what was to take place. She took the paper and studied it as she took a seat along the wall. She thought about Jack Henski as she read the paper, and she also was hoping she would have a good time at this school. In some time, she would be face to face with her advisor who would show her around this new school she was in.

Soar McHeed walked up to The International School for Teens reception desk to get administrate into the school. Soar being a male at the age of fifteen, standing at five feet and seven inches was not very excited as his parents were when he got into here. This stupid school. As he called it. He wanted to go to Knights University of the Green Hawk Air Force, but of course the parents won the argument. He brushed his hand though his black ruffled hair and rubbed an itch on his tan skin as he walked up to this odd lady.
"Hi, I'm Soar McHeed from Green Hawk. My father and mother sent me here," his voice was filled with angst as he talked to this lady who seemed to be focused on a girl. What was so great about girls? They are just a gender in the human species. Whatever. As long as this place has something on aerospace dynamics then I'm okay. Soar thought to himself as he waited to get administrate into the school. He already hated it, but he had no say in the matter so he just had to deal with it. Damn my parents. Thats just growing teens for you.
Peter smiled and began to follow Jeff, silently observing his surroundings. "What courses will I be required to take while I am here?" He asked.

Jack Henski walked into the room. Mary pointed over to the seats along the wall. "Hey there Juliet! I'm Jack Henski, your advisor here at the International School for Teens! I want to first welcome you here, and thank you for attending! You're going to have a great time! Now, have you signed that paper yet? If so, Mary will need it and then I can show you to your dorm." he said

"You must be Mr. Henski, it is nice to meet you." Juliet said in response as she handed Mary her signed paper. Carrying her posessions, Juliet followed Jack through the corridors of the school. "You are going to show me my dorm? Is it possible for you to be able to show me around?" Juliet asked Jack as she walked with him, as they walked, Juliet thought about the school and what classes she could be in.

Mary turned her focus to the boy who just walked in the door. My goodness, another without an advisor? It must be busy out there... she thought to herself.
"Hi there young man! What's your name?" she asked.

Peter smiled and began to follow Jeff, silently observing his surroundings. "What courses will I be required to take while I am here?" He asked.
"Well, it depends on what your ultimate goal is. However, the basics - math, science, language arts, and so forth - are required. But if you're wanting to go into business, many classes will be different from politics, and so forth." he said.
As they walked out into the hall, Jeff turned to Peter. "I want to let you know that this hall is the first one built for the dorms. You're in the oldest dormitory on the campus." he said with an excited look on his face. "So many bright young minds have walked these halls, many of them being politicians and business leaders, or among the top in whatever field their in, across the globe. You, my friend, will be next..."

"Hi there young man! What's your name?" she asked.
Okay... Is she deaf? Soar exclaimed to himself.
"Like I said before. It's Soar McHeed. Whats your's?" McHeed asked with fake interest. Sure. He was thinking anti-social thoughts, but who gives a rat's ass? He didn't. Thats what he knew.
"So... What do you want me to do?" He asked with a little more interest on the subject. He flitted slightly with his black hoody. He also wore a grey shirt underneath and dark blue pants that happen to be a little baggy. His bookbag was of course on his back. It seemed even with the hoody that he was cold and without warmth. Or was just simply cold. I blame the fact that he came from a nation that is a winter wonder land.

"It's nice to meet you Soar. I'm Mary. Let me look up who your advisor is." she said, taking a look at her book. "Ahh, yes, Jack Henski. While I go catch him, I'll have you sign this paper and date. It's your check-in." she said. She then quickly exited the room to grab Jack before he went to far.

"You seem pretty quiet." Jack said, "But, yes..." he was cut off by Mary.
"Jack, you've got a young man in the office. Why don't you bring him along and show him to his dorm as well. That will allow these two to meet." she said, smiling.
"Alright Mary. Juliet, looks like you'll get to meet someone who's also new here." he said, signalling for her to come.

Bert Harper strolled in, an immense backpack causing him to lean over slightly. He climbed up the stairs, looking about for room 256. Smiling slightly, he entered and set down his backpack, pulling out several thick calculus tomes and a black bag, which he set in the corner of the room.

The advisors walked over to the group of teens newly arrived from their respective homelands.
Matt Holliday walked over to John Arnold, "John I presume? I'm Matt Holliday, your advisor. Welcome to the International School for Teens! I'll show you to your dorm after we check you in." he said.
At the same time, David Davis walked over to Steven Preston, "And you're Steven Preston, right? My name is David Davis. Kinda strange, I know." he said, chuckling to himself, "Anyway, I'm your advisor, and I'd like to welcome you to ViZion and the International School for Teens! Let's get ya checked in." he said.
"Hey Ingram!" yelled Cliff from a short distance, "While they get checked in, let's also get you checked in. Then you guys can do what you want after we get you to your dorm. And you asked where I am from... I actually grew up in ViZion City, ViZion." he said, murmering something as he trailed off, deep in thought. It took him a couple seconds before snapping out of it. "But alas, here I am in Vitalita, helping out kids just like yourself." he said with a smile. "Anyway, let's get you checked in."
John nodded and said "Yes, that's me Mr.Holliday, I am patient, am I going to be roomed with somebody?"
"Well, it depends on what your ultimate goal is. However, the basics - math, science, language arts, and so forth - are required. But if you're wanting to go into business, many classes will be different from politics, and so forth." he said.

Peter followed Jeff, absorbing the environment around him. The school he went to was not bad. Actually it was excellent, like any other Siapian school, but it, like most other government buildings in his town, felt as though it had been cut from a model. This building had an actual personality, a sort of vibrance that he could feel as he quietly observed the hall.

Jeff walked down the hall slowly, letting the boy take it in, as he saw the boy was quite interested. As they exited the hall and into a large circular room with the grand staircase, Jeff began, "This is the center of the entire building. Built over 300 years ago, it's also about the oldest part of the building as well. It's remained unchanged except to keep it up and in shape." he said. The walls were golden, with actual gold as part of the wall. The staircase was made of granit, the railings made of solid oak, and massive, dome-like window above.
