Prologue/Chapter 1

Light.

Finally, at last there was light.

The girl felt the all too familiar moisture of her warm tears as she watched the doors to the van open to reveal the man and the woman who had captured her. Seeing this as a chance to escape, she launched herself at the two strangers, only to be pushed back inside the van by some unseen force.

What was that? She thought. She was sure nothing was in her way to separate herself from her and the people, but it had felt like she'd taken a head on collision with an invisible wall…

Still stunned, she was unable to continue the struggle as the male kidnapper lent into the van, grabbed her unexpectedly gently and tugged her out onto her feet.

She tried to pull away from his grip, but the man was far too strong. The woman, obviously noticing her fear, raised a hand to touch her face. The man had both of the young girl's hands held in his iron like grip, so the girl attempted to fight the womans hand away the only way she could see fit; by biting it…

The woman pulled her hand away just in time and shook her head, but there was no seeable anger in her empty grey eyes.

The woman, who appeared to be about 36 judging by the early signs of aging her skin showed, spoke in a soft, nurturing voice. "Darling, why are you crying? There is no need for tears and there is no cause for you to be afraid. We only want to help you understand what you are. You will face more ridicule on the outside world than here."

'What I am? Outside world?' she thought. The woman with ebony black hair who stood before her had just presented her with a new list of questions but she had no idea whee to even begin asking them. She didn't know where she was, all she knew was that in the early hours of the morning, whilst it was still dark, these people had climbed through her window (she didn't know how. She lived in a 6th floor apartment) and kidnapped her, put her in a van and driven her hee. Strangely, they'd also gone through her wardrobe and collected a few of her clothes, too. She'd tried to keep track of the directions, remembering that they'd taken a left, then a right, then a few more lefts, but lost count soon after…

She turned her head to face away as the man led her towards a building. The place they'd brought her to looked like an army base. It was obvious to see that she was in the middle of a desert. There were three hu8ge buildings along with three smaller ones and they were all surrounded by barbed wire fences.

"You are safe here," said the woman as they walked through the fences. She turned and locked the fence with a simple key. "Take her to the girls room, Officer Mason.

The man, now named Officer Mason nodded and began to walk her to one of the smaller buildings.

"I'll get out of here, you now. You can't keep me here." Said the girl to officer Mason.

"Nobody's trying to keep you here, young lady. Once you understand why you're here, I doubt you'll want to leave."

"Well why'd you kidnap me then?"

"Because you'd think we were crazy if we straight up told you the truth about yourself and asked you to come with us. Believe me, we've done that and been down that road before, it ain't pretty."

She started crying again as soon as they neared the door.

"Gee," he sighed and rolled his eyes as he pushed the door open to reveal a military type room lined with bunk beds. "None of the others cried as much as you. Matter of fact, hardly any of them cried."

"The others? You mean you people have kidnapped more!?"

He pushed her inside and closed the door. Just as she was about to start screaming at the top of her lungs in protest, two girls walked out from behind the bunkbeds closest to her.

One short, azure blue hair and amethyst eyes. The other was a blue eyed brunette with goggles on her head. One looked rather tomboyish and rough, the other seemed soft and girly. Both had big, happy smiled painted on their faces.

"Hi, I'm Hikaru," said the bluenette. "And this is Madoka."

The frightened girl turned to them, her eyes pleading. "C'mon we've gotta get out of here!"

"Get out?" asked Hikaru. "Oh no, no, no. You'll love it here, trust us. Besides, don't you wanna wait and see who else they bring in and what special abilities they have?"

"What's your name, anyway?" Madoka questioned on a totally different wavelength to Hikaru.

"I'm Nala. Nala Winchester. What others? What special abilities?"

"Madoka's eyes widened. "You mean they didn't tell you anything? Like, at all?"

Nala shook her head.

"I'll explain," Hikaru began. "The two who brought you here were Officer Mason, a trainer and Professor Kringle, a teacher. This is kind of like a special school. You'll learn average stuff here like math and gym, but you'll also learn how to control your specific gift. The headmaster searches the world every year to find new students and when he finds us, he brings us here so he can develop our abilities and make sure he gets us on the 'good' side before we're tricked into the 'bad' side. You, know, just in case an apocalyptic war between good and evil ever breaks out," she shrugged.

"Special abilities?"

"She sure asks a lot of questions," Madoka said.

"You don't even know what your ability is? Then this is all gonna be so new to you."

Nala pressed herself against the door, "Where the heck am I?"

Madoka stretched her arms out wide, "Welcome to Moonlight Academy!"

So that was the introduction. I honestly couldn't think of a better name than Moonlight Academy. I wanted something cool, like, I dunno, Mortal Combat but I have a feeling that's already taken ;)

Anyways, here's the OC form. I'm only accepting OCs that are submitted by review, just so they're all in one place and no guest reviews (sorry!). You can submit up to two characters.

I decided to do one of these OC Academy things. I'm still writing OCxCanon, so don't worry if I haven't done your chapter for that yet. I'm running a cold at the moment, so Fanfiction has been my savior..

Thanks guys!
