Hello! This has been a very long time hey? Well, i have done a new chapter for this so you might have to revisit this and any other stories. I just found it and realised I hadn't finished it!

Enjoy!

The flight had been very long and I was drifting in and out of sleep in the car to our secret location. I had to say goodbye to mum in America but dad came with me. It was weird, I was leaving them for the first time and going to a different continent.

England was so different from home but I loved it. For starters, it was a lot flatter but surprisingly cold. I should have listened to Sky's advice on packing warm things. Oh well, I could always buy some new clothes to fit in.

We arrived at a large, what seemed castle with barriers going all around the perimeter of the grounds. It was all very well maintained and obviously had to keep up appearances. I opened my car door and hopped to get out the luggage I had. It was two large suitcases, as I presumed I could leave some clothes here. Dad took the bigger of the two bags and I looked at him, I was only an inch or two smaller than him.

You okay, son?

Never better. I grinned, I couldn't wait for this; it seemed like my destiny. We entered the large oak doors to reveal a walkway that resembled Hogwarts. There were large artefacts on display from old paintings to school trophies. It was all just an act though. I knew that they would train us to become better spies and secretive people using our gifts to help us. Greenwood Academy was just a cover for the public, they also thought you have to be invited to apply to the school.

"Is this what you want to do Daniel? I will be proud of you whatever you choose to do." My dad asked, he seemed a little worried about me.

"Don't worry about me, I don't want to follow your footsteps and I know this is right, I can feel it here." I prodded my chest. "Doesn't mum always say to follow my heart?" I knew that mentioning one of mum's major sayings would persuade him more. He just gave a tight nod and we proceeded towards the registration.

When it was our turn, we were greeted with a young and tall man. He had short, dark hair and it was clear he had run his hands through it.

"Hello, my name is Mr Stirling though you can call me Kota. All the teachers prefer to be referred by their first names, you are 18 after all. What is your name?" He had a command in his voice and I knew he was authoritative when needed but could be great fun too. He wore thick rimmed glasses and had a slight beard on him, as if the stress has made him forget about shaving.

"My name is Dan Benedict."

"Wow, okay, a Benedict. One second and I can show you to your dormitory." He left a second and checked a long list pinned to a wall. I glanced at dad, I knew that he was unimpressed how many people knew us by our surname. I smiled and shook my head, it already gave me a head start to fit in and I was grateful for that.

"If you would like to follow me Dan, and Mr Benedict." He gestured towards a large set of stairs. "A little information, the dorms are split into flats of around 6-8 people all having separate bedrooms and bathrooms but shared living area and kitchen. There will be meals provided twice a day and the third you must fend for yourself, but we will give money to assist you with that. Unfortunately for you, the flat is on the top floor and no lifts on this part of the Academy." I smiled to myself, it wouldn't bother me, it would keep me in shape.

We finally arrived at a door that looked quite old, flat 410. He opened the door and walked in a bit so we could enter. It was an ultra-modern flat that was fully and precisely furnished and had plenty of rooms. My jaw dropped and I almost missed what Kota had to say.

"This is a smaller room so I presume you will only be sharing with 6 people. As everyone is a little older, we try to accommodate for it to look as similar to a university campus as possible. It is very much fend for yourself here but if we have any complaints we will not hesitate to step in." This is awesome! "I will show you to your room then leave you to unpack your belongings."

We headed to room 4 and he opened it. It was a medium sized room with a double bed, wardrobe, desk and spare space. Round the corner was a small en-suite that could be used just by me. I dropped my bags on my bed as Kota made his quick goodbyes. I looked at dad and he seemed really impressed too. I grinned at him and flopped on the bed.

"Dad, this is so much better than I expected." I exclaimed, I didn't really think about where I would be staying but I love the independence they gave us, so much more slack than Colorado.

"It certainly is more impressive. Shall we get unpacked then I will have to go." He didn't have to say it but I knew he came to help with some problems in the UK. I didn't mind though, I could explore my living quarters a little more. I didn't bring too much due to weighting on the plane so the unpacking was fairly quick. Dad left soon after, asking for me to stay in contact, even if it was by coded letters.

He left in a blacked out car and I turned to face the Academy. My new home.

Hopefully update soon but please can you guys leave reviews? if no one does, i probably won't bother with more.
