Chapter 2, Part 1: Welcome To Elphon Academy

Chapter 2, Part 1: Welcome To Elphon Academy

Dec 15, 2018

The P.E hall was massive, it was easily as big as a football field, how it managed to hide in a central building that wasn't as big is easily a miracle of magic. Calling it a hall was an understatement.
   "How in the hell can they fit this in here?" Annie asked, still with her squeaky pixie voice in her sisters shirt pocket.
   "With magic obviously but I've never seen spacial manipulation on this size before," Answered Elizabeth.
   Annie looked at Elizabeth with a cheaky pixie smile, "Well no shit detective, we've kinda never met a Joker before."
   "Who says I've never met one?" Elizabeth stated, clearly annoyed with Annie's comment.
   "I just did," Annie answered, flying out of Elizabeths shirt pocket to sit on her head.
   Elizabeth grabbed her sister in a huff and put her back in her pocket, buttoning it up for good measure, "Don't get used to the pixie form sister, " Elizabeth stated, walking towards the bleachers. 

The girls were seated in the crowded bleachers across from a stage that was set up for the welcoming ceremony. The bleachers sat all the students of the academy with some space to spare for the few teachers who weren't sat on stage.
   "Excuse me," Said a young boy dressed in black jeans, a short sleeved gray hoodie with messy black hair who was seated next to the girls, "You wouldn't happen to have the time would you?"
   Elizabeth looked at her watch, "4:29," She said with a friendly smile.
   "Thanks, names Richard by the way, you can call me Richie," The boy, Richie, streached out his hand to shake.
   Elizabeth shaked his hand, "My names Elizabeth Colère, nice to meet you Richie." 
  "My names Annabell," Said Annie "But you can call me Annie, the better twin."
  Elizabeth smacked Pixie Annie against her chest, "Your also the dumb one." 
  Richie chuckled, "Interesting sister you have there Elizabeth, does she always hide in your pocket as a Rosewood Pixie?" Asked Richie. 
   "No, thankfully, we just ran into a problem and haven't gotten the time to turn her back," Answered Elizabeth. 
   "Wait what?" Richie exclaimed. 
    "Annie has a control problem let's sa–" Elizabeth jumped with shock as Annie bit one of her fingers,"What the hell was that for, you pixie prick?!" 
   "I have no clue what you're talking about Liz," Annie stated in her annoyed pixie voice. 
   "You little shit–" "Miss would you please calm yourself and sit back down, we are about to begin!" Stated the  booming voice of an older woman with bright crimson eyes and brunet hair standing at a microphone on the stage. Elizabeth sat back down in a huff with Richie and Annie snickering beside her. 

Some lights in the hall dimmed and others aimed towards the stage opposite the bleachers. The woman who had told Elizabeth to sit down was now seated herself in her place at the microphone stood a man who looked to be in his forties, wearing a whole black suit with a blood red tie standing out in the attire. "Hello ladies and gentlemen my name is Ichabod Elphonheim, I am the Head master of the Academy," He said before clearing his throat, "I am not very good at speeches so I'll try to keep it short, here at Elphon Academy you shall be learning about magic, its practical use, history and other such things but of course you already knew this else you would not have applied to come here," He said with a nervous chuckle, "But you'll also be learning about the less magically inclined, simple maths and biology even science and there are extra classes which you shall probably take during your time here learning such as a pyromancy class and such but yet again I hope you already know this, so instead of drowning on about what you already know I'm going to pass the mic on to our head teacher who will hopefully tell you useful information," He said, waving his hands to get the crowd to cheer but only managing to goad a laugh out of the audience in front of him before sitting down. 
   The woman with brunet hair and crimson eyes sat up, removed her jacket revealing a prestine white shirt that contrasted her black skirt and traded places with Ichabod, "Isn't that the woman who told you to sit down sis?" Asked Annie. 
   "Yea, guess she's the head teacher, " whispered Elizabeth, as to not get told off again. 
   "What's a head teacher?" Questioned Richie. 
   "Oh their the teacher who sets up timetables and helps the head master put kids into the different classes," Answered Elizabeth. 
   "Hello everyone my name is Lindsay Rubrum and I am the Head teacher here at Elphon Academy, now before we begin proper allow me to give you this years timetable," She said waving her hand, summoning a small light on the laps of the students that left behind a sheet of paper with each students name, the class they were assigned to, class times and even dormitories rooms. 
  "Oh hey I have your one too Annie," Said Elizabeth. 
   "Hm guess she could tell I was here," Annie pondered. 
   "Hey what dorm you guys in?" Richie asked. 
   "Um Annie's in dorm three, floor four, room nine and I'm in dorm one, floor three, room six."
   "Hm seems we're neighbours Elizabeth I'm just room five, dorm one, floor three so it seems the dorms ain't split by gender." 
   "Rooms probably are though," Stated Elizabeth, hoping she was right. 
   Lindsay cleared her throat before speaking again, "Now on that paper I just summoned  is important information pertaining to your class and dormitory so please do not lose it, if you do just come to my office and I shall replace it but please spare me that trouble and don't lose it," She said shuffling her paper, "The dormitories if you do not know, is just across the road from the Academies main entrance, you'll notice a sign that reads 'Elphon Academy dormatories' so you'll know your at the right place, now I'd like to introduce our year representives for years two to five so they themselves can tell you their role," Lindsay sat down after finishing her talk allowing four people from the bleachers to walk on stage and speak. There was three girls and one guy all in the school uniforms, two of the girls had their hair in ponytails one with red hair, green eyes and freckles the other with navy hair and brown eyes both of a light complexion, the other girl let her hair down, it was a shiny silver colour with a neat red bow tied on her head and bright red eyes with a paler complexion than the other girls, the only guy among them had his black hair in a small ponytail, his eyes were an odd purple colour and his complexion a deep shade of brown. They all stood around the microphone. 
  The man among the group spoke first, "Hello everyone, my name is Javier Codicia," Stated the only man among the year representives, "And I'm the fifth year representive," Javier stepped back a bit to allow the shorter silver haired girl to speak. 
   The silver haired girl cleared her throat, "Hello ladies and gentlemen my name is Emily Rubrum, and I am the fourth year representive."
   Annie was pondering the new information, "What's up Annie?" Richie asked. 
   "Oh nothing Richie, just wondering why there isn't a 5 of them," answered Annie. 
   "Well the head teacher did say representative of year two to five not one to five, or were you too busy floating around Richie's head to pay attention lil sis?" Elizabeth said teasingly. 
   "We're twins and shut the fuck up!" Annie retorted, banging on her sisters head from on top of it. 
   "Miss do you mind calming your pet down!" Yelled the voice of the navy haired representative. 
   The navy haired representative cleared her throat in an attempt to calm herself before continuing, "Now as I was saying, my name is Rian Diana and I am the third year representative," Rian finished with a little bow. 
   The final representative, the smallest and youngest of them but she strangely radiated with a pride the others lacked, standing tall at the microphone, "Hello everyone my name is Minza Lilliard, and it's my honor to be the second year representative," Minza said with a wide genuine smile, "Now that we've all introduced ourselves, new students are probably wondering why the first year representative isn't here right? Well there isn't one yet."
   "Straight forward and to the point isn't she?" Richie asked the girls. 
   The girls nodded as a silent sign of agreement. 
   "In fact as the representatives first act of the year we will now pick a first year student to be the representative here and now," Minza nodded to the head teacher. Lindsay summoned a hat and handed it to Minza, "Now in this hat is all the first years names, if your name is called and you accept please stand up immediately and come to stage if not just remain seated and I shall call another name," Minza began to shuffle through the hat of names. 
   The room was quite, everyone was waiting for a name to be called, first years wondering if they were gonna be called, other years waiting almost as if bored of the situation. Minza pulled out a piece of paper, "Rubert Roland," No one stood up. Minza burned the paper to ash, leaving no cinders just ash. 
   "Hey sis," Annie said floating onto Elizabeth's shoulder, "Think you'll be called? You're perfect for the job afterall." 
   "I don't think so Annie, don't think I'd be up to it anyways," Elizabeth said anxious of if she would be called now. 
   "Don't worry Elizabeth even if you got called you could just stay seated," Richie said trying to calm his new friend. 
   Elizabeth sat, contemplating, anxious. 
   Minza had gone through two names during their conversation, neither had responded. Minza went through the hat once more, she pulled out the name and read it carefully almost like she wasn't sure of what she was reading or how to pronounce the name, "Annabell Colare?" Minza said uncertainly. 
   Elizabeth was shocked that her sister was called, even more so when Annie rushed down to the stage and suddenly transformed back to normal, still in her black tights and blue hoodie, just before walking on stage. Everyone in the bleachers started to applaud as Annie was welcomed into the representives by Minza. 
   "I thought you said Annie was having trouble transforming back to normal?" Asked Richie. 
   "She was, she's always has had trouble transforming back to normal," Elizabeth sighed, "Guess we're just gonna have to check later if she can do it again." 

Annie, now on the stage, nervously stood at the mic. Minza put a hand on Annie's shoulder, shocking her, "Don't worry Annabell, just tell them who you are." 
   "Um hi my name is Annabell Colère not Colare, just call me Annie and uh I am the new first year representative I guess," The audience clapped lazily. 
   "You may sit down now Annabell," Said the head teacher Lindsay, "You too Minza," Annie and Minza sat down next to each other on the stage. 
   "So are you a Prince Annabell or just fluent in transformation?" Asked Minza curiously. 
    "Oh I'm a Prince," Annie said cautiously. 
   "Awesome," Minza said starting to become excited, "I'm a Prince too actually."
   "Really? But didn't you use pyromancy to burn the paper?" Annie said, pointing to the small ash pile sitting at the mic stand where the head teacher stood, finishing the opening ceremony. 
   "Yep, I honestly love practicing it, so handy as you could see." 
   "Do you Prince's mind quieting down, don't need to hear your dribble," Said Emily Rubrum. 
   Javier Codicia gave his fellow representative a light smack, "Calm down the high and mighty act Emily, your stuck with these two get use to them," Javier sighed, "Sorry about her Annabell she has problems, I'm Javier by the way, I'm a Queen myself since we're sharing our classes," Javier said reaching out his hand to shake. 
   "Nice to meet you Javier," Annie said shaking his hand, "Call me Annie by the way, hope we can get along." 
   Javier nodded happily. Emily sighed and also reached out her hand passed Javier, who was seated in between herself and Minza, "Since we're stuck together we may as well attempt to get along, I'm Emily Rubrum heir to the Rubrum family, and my class is of King," Annie shook her hand and gave a wide smile. 
   "Oh by the way the one who hasn't introduced herself yet is Rian Diana," Minza said motioning towards her colleague who had her head down and eyes closed, "And she's asleep....again," Minza stated.
