~Britannia Academy~

Well hello! Thank you for your interest in my story! :)

It's been quite a while since I've uploaded a story, so I apologize if I am a bit rusty and/or old school with lingo for Fan Fiction. I began writing in 2005 so I'm slowly getting back into the groove of things. This is my first Seven Deadly Sins story, so I hope you enjoy it! Feel free to comment let me know what you like, if there's errors that I missed (again I'm rusty xD) and again thank you for stopping by!

Cheers!

Prologue - Sweet Dreams

I can see it...

There I am, lying in a field full of small flowers and soft grass in the middle of a giant forest. The sun is shining and there's not a cloud in sight. A slight breeze rolls in and caresses my skin and ruffles my hair and dress. It's not chilly though, it's complementing the sun's rays as it warms my body. The smell of grass with a hint of sweetness from the flowers intoxicates me as I just lie there. My arms folded under my head lifting me up slightly. My legs are crossed as I lay in an odd obtuse angle. It's comfortable, It's peaceful, and in this moment I'm happy. I close my eyes and let the world engulf me with light and wonderment.

Then...I feel it...

A shift in the wind as if maybe… a storm is about to happen. The gust starts to chill me. It's odd because it comes out of nowhere but then I sense a presence. Someone is in the field with me. Do I know this person? Does this person know me? Whoever this person is don't move and is watching me from behind. I keep still, and my eyes are still closed as I hear them speak to me.

"Are… you..."

It's a boy's voice. His voice is so soft, almost mute, that it's almost hard to hear with the wind picking up. My heart begins to flutter. What is this boy doing here? Suddenly the wind began to gust more only this time it felt heavier. It wasn't cold either it was warm…hot even. It was no longer refreshing it was thick like…smoke? And the sun, it felt like it was falling on me. Everything was getting hotter and more uncomfortable. Yet…my eyes remained closed.

I try to move, and I realize that the soft grass that once was there is now hard... almost like concrete…no…its tile. What is happening? Where am I? and why does this feel familiar?

Open your eyes…

Slowly opening my eyes, I realize exactly where I am. I am in Danafor High and its on fire. I stand up only to be greeted with heavy smoke which makes me cough. I duck down looking around trying to find a way out. There is just fire everywhere around me. I run down the smoke-filled hall trying to yell for help but I end up coughing more. My eyes burn, and I can't breathe and at that moment I trip on my own feet and come tumbling down. Exhausted from the smoke inhalation and running I stay down on the hard floor. I curl myself into the fetal position trying to protect myself from falling debris. Is this it? Am I really going to die here? Panic, fear, and complete terror take over my senses until I hear a voice…

"Are…you…ok?"

It's the boy…the boy from before. He has found me. I try to tell him that I need help but have no strength nor voice to speak. I am completely useless as I just lay there waiting, hoping, praying that he finds me in this hell fire and saves me…whoever he is.

Please…Don't leave me…

I feel myself giving into the despair. Before I close my eyes for good I see him. The boy is here, and I can feel him trying to keep me awake by shaking me but I'm too weak. Before my eyes shut I can see the outline of him. Who is this mysterious boy who is trying to save me? I don't see his face, but I can make out his blonde shaggy hair and his voice is now crystal clear…

"JUST HOLD ON!"

I shot up from my bed in an instant, breathing heavily and sweating profusely. My hands grab my head as I shake myself fully awake. Running my fingers through my hair I take deep breaths to calm myself down.

"Another nightmare…"

Full Summary:

The Seven deadly sins, Greed, Lust, Envy, Wrath, Gluttony, Sloth, and Pride.

These words all describe the city of Britannia, A booming metropolis that continues to grow due to a big conglomerate that makes the rich, richer and the poor, poorer. A City that is divided by the high-class society and the low-class to the point that even schools are also divided. There are only two high schools in the entire city. Danafor High and Britannia Academy. Britannia Academy, the most prestigious school in the region that only caters to the wealthy of families whereas Danafor High has a reputation for catering to the hooligans of the city. But when a mysterious fire destroys Danafor High and a decision is made through the Council Elders to allow Danafor High students to attend Britannia Academy until the school is rebuild, the city becomes a war zone. The question remains, who caused the fire? Many people blame a group of high schoolers known as the Seven Deadly Sins who were all present that day. But there were others in the school as well including a young girl who is determined to find the missing pieces of who saved her. Will the merge of these two schools be beneficial or detrimental for the city of Britannia and its people?
