The year is 2018 and through a tremendous accident, the world of magic was unveiled for the human race. Governments all around the world out of fear of their power, created separate housing and special schools that they are shipped to right after their 18th birthday to learn how to control their powers completely. It doesn't help that there is a small group of worldwide rebels who fight for freedom for all of the arcane. There is also a group of mages loyal to the governments and run the school and the towns thus granting them special privileges. The School is a enormous complex almost large enough to be called a city, it teaches every arcane novice from every part of the world. You are a child with the arcane gift and today is going to be your first day at your
new home for the next few years....

((Sorry StormWalker)) The men look you over and finally say "Alice Kirkland? Step onto the bus and don't think about running. The bus drains your arcane power." They say as they lead you to a bus more outfitted for prisoners it seems

(To Everyone The bus is a lot larger and longer on the inside but none the more pleasant. Guards sit at intervals with steel bars blocking the windows and the seats are barely cushioned (Everyone is on the same bus) A lone girl sitting in a seat is specifically guarded. Blood marks and bruises on her face but there is tears flowing down her cheeks

Dancin' Rick Daniels (thinking to himself):
"Man, I wish I had the power to bend these bars and stop this bus. This long ride is getting lamer by the second."

I look around and sit down far away from the beat-up girl.

I look up to the man declaring his name and see that most ignore him "Desmond." I say simply back to him. The girl who seemed like she would be a loner says "I'm Alyssa." She says a little quietly

At this point, Rick stands up on his seat. "I'm Dancin' Rick Daniels, and I'm here to boogie!" he shouts to the rest of the passengers. He then attempts to conjure up a beat, but is unable to due to his magic being drained, so he just starts beatboxing very loudly in the hopes that people will get up and dance.

Rick looks toward Nicholas blankly. "I had my name legally changed to it when I was 18. Dancin' Rick has been my legal first name for the past *counts on hands briefly while mouthing numbers* 15 years." Rick wonders for a split second how Nicholas could have been born just three months after his brother, but he gets distracted by a robin flying just outside the bus. "Fly, Robin, Fly!" Rick says in a soft but audible voice. "Fly, Robin, Fly," Rick says a second time in a slightly less audible tone. "Fly, Robin, Fly!" Rick says with the same audibility as the first time. "Up, up to the sky!" Rick then shouts at the top of his lungs.

A guard looks at Rick very sternly "Stop that nonsense." He threatens

Alyssa is the girl with the bruises on blood marks on her face "No, I'm an only child. You have three brothers AND a sister? Lucky..." She says with a bit of a pout. "At least you have someone in the academy who you know." She says

Desmond laughs at Nicholas, rick was definitely else. He thinks of his family at home. He's the oldest in his family. He heard some rumors about this school. The headmaster often acted liked a dictator and often showed no mercy to anyone, especially new students.

The Guard doesn't even looks at him "There it is." He says as a large walled city comes into view, the bus now on a bridge leading towards it and it looks like the only way into it. The guard laughs "Say your prayers, kid."

The bus keeps driving and finally stops in front of a large gate, Alyssa has curled up in her seat as the doors open to a courtyard overlooked by a large building. The bus parks in front of it. The Guards stand up, two of them grabbing Alyssa by the her arms. The guard that looks to be in charge says "Everyone off and follow me to orientation!" He yells

Alyssa seems quite frightened to the point she's even shivering a little. It's hard to imagine what a pretty and scared young woman did to get her own escort.

Desmond thinks to himself Orientation sounds more like cataloging . This place looks more like a fortress than a school, almost to keep people out rather than in but not by much.

Alice Kirkland: Well, whatever they say. I drag my bags up past them, and take a seat in the corner of the bus. There's already some boys there and one beat-up girl, but none of them are intresting, so, surreptitiously, I take some feed and hold it up to flying mint bunny. He glides down and lands on my shoulder, and I smile.
Then I realize the girl is staring at Bunny, as well as Unicorn (who's squashed behind me), and even Tink, who's perched on my head.
I stare right back. Right behind her, looming protectively over her, is a troll. It's obviously her troll, and it's mad at the guards. It keeps snapping at them, but the girl -I think her name's Alyssa- calms it by tugging gently on one of its arms.

Dancin' Rick didn't like the look of this place. To Rick, large gates meant a haunted house, and there was nothing Rick was more a-scared of than g-g-g-g-g-g-ghosts. He also didn't hear any music playing, even in the distance, so he knew this wasn't the place to get down and boogie.

Rick stood in place on the final step of the bus, debating to himself whether or not he wanted to get off.

The guards take everyone from the bus into the large courtyard. Guards place a band that tightens around your wrist. There are even more of guards surronding the bus. The girl steps off and she gets a collar instead. She gasps a little as it pushes down on her skin and she is taken aside from the group.

Desmond does as he is told and after getting his band on, he walks into the large group standing in front of a podium. Someone was going to speak.

Vladimir is walking down the hall of the adminstration building, his cabinet walking beside him. He always loved the intake of new students because he gets to put them in their place and that girl who gave them so many problems will be a excellent example.

Rick looks at Nicholas, trying to make sense of the tight collar around the girl's neck. He knew it wasn't a rave collar because it wasn't bright or festive enough, and the girl hadn't barked once on the bus, so he figured it couldn't be a shock collar. Rick looks down at the band on his own wrist, and then back at Nicholas. "What do you think they're gonna do to us?"
