The New College Days
Chapter 1.
My names Eris Silver, I'm 16 years old and the youngest of my five siblings Shan, Ishani, Arcee, Dani, and my twin sister Strongarm who's 10 minuets older than me. I am currently attending Stronghold Academy with my twin and best friends Tsunami Ocean, Mordecai, and his twin brother Jay Howaito, along with their sister Suki Howaito. I enjoy the school and my friends, for it brings me many adventures in my life that I never thought I would have. I've learned sword techniques, hacking skill, aerodynamics, and even how to properly control my powers thanks to their support. Well that's a little bit about me, so enjoy the story's from school.
-Eris Silver
Eris woke up to the sound of the song "Lava" by James Ford Murphy, Torres Kahele, and Napua Greig playing on her phone telling her to wake up and get ready for the day. But as she listened to the calm tune of both the vocals and ukulele, she couldn't help but feel like she knew what the two volcanos felt, lonely, wishing she could find a good man she could say 'I love you' too and grow old with. "Tsk. Big planes for a 17 year old" she told herself turning off her phones alarm and heading towards her bathroom to get ready for school.
Jay woke up the best way possible. He was refreshed, both his twin and little sister were still out cold from their weekly sibling Halo tournament last night (he won that too), and his favorite song was currently playing on his radio waking him up from a good nights rest. Beyond the Sea by Robbie Williams. He closed his two different color eyes humming peacefully to the nice calm jazzy tune. And before he knew it his nice baritone voice was singing along with the tune.
Somewhere beyond the sea.
Somewhere waiting for me.
My lover stands
On golden sands
And watches the ships that go sailing.
Somewhere beyond the sea.
She's there watching for me.
If I could fly like bird on high
Then straight to her arms.
Then go sailing.
Before he went to sing the next verse he saw two heads out of the corner of his eyes watching him sing. "No no. Go on! Keep going!" His little sister begged as she continued to stare at him. "Yeah! Just pretend we're not here!" His twin said hoping he would take pity on them and keep singing. But Jay didn't and he simply got up to turn his radio off and get dressed for his day for school. "Oh come on big bro!" Suki cried out. "Why must you Troll us!" His brother complained. Jay responded to their cries by slamming his bathroom door in their faces.
"Thank goodness it's Friday" Jay said silently to himself. He was looking forward to a nice quiet weekend hanging out with a few friends. Then again none of his few friends were quiet. Except for Eris, she never really talked to anyone much besides him, Mordecai, and her best friend Tsunami. He never really could figure out how those two became friends. After all Eris was quiet and a book worm, while Tsunami was rather loud and very sporty. "Freaking Atlantians" he laughed to himself. That culture was full of warriors, guardians, and flat out pure soldiers. But that's besides the point, his friends, no matter how strange or obnoxious they might be, they were always great to hang around with. Speaking of friends one came walking towards him right now. "Hey Eris" he said walking towards her. "Hey Jay, you would you like to walk to music together?" "Sure why not?"he smiled grabbing her hand. He never really knew why he did, but ever since the two where little they would hold hands and go on all sorts of adventure together with their friends. And every time he held her hand he felt so warm and happy.
Once he sat down beside her the music (and biology) teacher Ms. Daring came out with her short orange hair a mess and her clothes slightly ripped. "Sorry I'm late kids! And rather a mess, some idiot in my other class tried to feed ice cream to a Velociraptor" some kids laughed as she brushed some dried up mud of her vest. "So I assume you all did your warm ups since Viki back there looks like she lost her voice, and Marco looks like he threw up his vocal cords" another class laugh. "Ms. Daring the best" Hay heard one kid whisper to his friend. "No I know you all just loved the music ever the school gave us for the school music competition last week, considering we one FIRST PLACE!" The whole class cheered as loud as they could. First place was hard to get. Especially when your up against the orchestra classes. "So as a reward for your bravery. I'm having your new project, which is due next week, to do a song of your choice for the class! You can pick your partners groups or even your only solo act of you like. So for the rest of the class start planing and get singing" and with that she bowed and went to her office as the whole class broke out in applause and started forming their groups. Jay look to Eris who was surrounded by boys asking to partner up with her, denying everyone of them she went and sat closer to him. "So Jay…would you like to do a song together?" She asked as the rest of the boys watched, begging he'd say no. "Sure, I think it would be fun" he smiled along with Eris. The boys finally backed off and went to join another group instead, Eris pulled out a notebook and a pencil in the process. "So I guess we should start with, what kind of song we should do. A sad, fast, slow, happy…" "What about romantic?" Jay asked leaning back into his chair. "That sounds cool. What love song should we do?" "Um…how about Romeo and Cinderella?" "That vocaloid song? That sounds cool. Let's do that" she smiled. Jay smiled at her before the bell rang for the next class. "Well I guess if you want you can come over to my house so we can practice" Eris said as she shyly grabbed her messenger bag. "Yeah. I'll uh. Text you after school then?" "Yeah see you later Jay" she smiled brightly hugging him tightly. "See you later pretty bird". Eris walked out waving to Jay as he headed for his next class right before her bummed into a short haired girl, wearing a red kimono.
