*I don't own VA
** I also unfortunately don't own Dimitri (cries)
Rose and Lissa have just returned to St. Vladimir's academy for the Unique, A private and exclusive school for those with a gift of sorts. There are the usual, human calculator, Artists and those with a photographic memory, but there are also those with hearts of gold, great beauty or those that are exceptional at making people laugh. The girls learn how much can change in 2 yrs. **All Human**
I opened my eyes, looking at the blue walls. I groaned. I hated these blue walls. I remembered them from when I used to be here. I had just returned after 2 years of travelling with my family and my best friend, Lissa's family. We had both been homeschooled for the last two years as we had travelled to Europe, Asia and even Australia. We were back to finish our final year before college.
I rolled out of bed, shuffling towards the bathroom. Still with my eyes half closed, I reached into my shower, turned the tap on and started to strip off. The water was amazing, as it run over my hair and back.
Twenty minutes later, I had dressed in my uniform, brushed my hair gently over my shoulder, grabbed my bag, and locked up my room before heading over to the commons for breakfast. As soon as I set foot in there, I stopped.
Looking around, the wannabe royalty, were sitting in their usual spot, some had in our absence obviously been welcomed into the royalties folds. I saw Lissa, Mia, Eddie, Christian, and Adrian sitting at our old table. I smiled at Lissa, before going to go get a donut.
I walked back to the table with a chocolate donut and a cinnamon one too. I nudged Mia aside, and sat down between her and Adrian.
"Miss us" I said laughing as I hugged both Mia and Adrian. Adrian had had a crush on me for a while although he wasn't my type of guy. He was still one of my best friends.
Soon we were all talking and catching up even though we had all talked at every chance we got, but it had been hard to find an internet connection at times e.g. In the middle of the desert.
At our school, everyone had a gift of some kind, many were very obscure, but there were never two people at the school with the same talent. Mia, was a ballerina that was extraordinary, Eddie is amazing at soccer, Christian's protective and would do anything to guarantee those that he loved would be safe and happy, Adrian was manipulative to the extreme (it was a wonder how I had managed so far not to date him), Lissa had the biggest heart of gold, and I have an incredible love of martial arts and am great at it.
I was finishing my donut, putting the last piece, which was probably a bit big into my mouth, when the doors opened…
Cliff-hanger Sorry it's so short. Just a small taste of what to come. Tell me what you think, and I'll continue. Suggestions for future chapters more than welcome.
