Pfffft.
They have arrived in front of Bloor's Academy at exactly 12 o'clock in the afternoon. They were not impressed by the building. It was ancient, dark, and forbidding, and even without going in they could feel that there were lots of bats and rats in there.
"Well, I've always knew that it won't be a Beverly hill standard mansion…" Yosemite mumbled, which made everyone laugh and their moods lifted a bit.
A freaky gardener took them in to the huge building, and separated them in to three cafeterias. Zoire, Katana and Glacie went to the green cafeteria, while Eve went to the purple one and Yosemite went to the blue one. Zoire, Katana and Glacie stepped in to a quiet green cafeteria. Everyone was wearing green capes like them, and the walls and ceiling were also green. When they went in, it got even quieter, if it was possible, and everyone stared at a gigantic man with a strait mustache who was sitting at a raised thingimajigy in front of all three cafeterias. All the teachers sat with that man. When Eve stepped in to the purple cafeteria, she thought that she would fit in. It was messy, noisy, and covered in purple. It was just the perfect place for her to just melt away without anyone noticing. Except, when she went in, everyone stopped talking and started at the same giant man the green kids were staring at. Yosemite, well, had the same reactions Zoire, Katana and Glacie had, except for the fact that the blue cafeteria was noisier, and the food looked way better. All was silent for a long minute, until the man finally spoke.
"We have five new kids here, kids. Welcome to Bloor's. The endowed children have to do homework in the king's room."
All the kids started to clear away their food, and started to shuffle towards the doors. The five girls had no idea where to go.
Zoire's Point of View
After that man shouted, everyone started to leave. She had no idea where to go.
"Girls, do you have any ideer vere to go?" she asked.
"Nope."
Zoire glanced around the room, trying to find a friendly face who she could ask for directions. The room was nearly empty, except for a cute African American boy and his friend, a really cute boy with spiky blonde hair and electric blue eyes.
"Hi! Ve're new. Can you tell us vere the king's room eez?" She asked.
"Sure! We'll take you there!" the black boy said, "By the way, I'm Lysander and this is Tancred."
"What's you're endowment? You're cute, by the way." Tancred said, not blushing a slight bit.
"How did you know that ve are endowed? Never mind. I can mesmerize people by singing. Thanks for the complement! You're cute too! Are you endowed? Theez are my friends Katana and Glacie. Say hi to them! This is Lysander and Tancred!" Once Zoire was on a roll, she could hardly stop.
Laughing, Lysander told them the answers.
"I can call up my ancestors, and Tancred is a weather monger. I suppose that you're friends are endowed too."
"Oh yes! Katana is telekinetic and Glacie can make ice. It eez very cool and…"
They started walking towards the king's room. Next to them, Katana and Tancred are in deep conversation on how to breed frogs and other random stuff. Glacie was just staring at them, with a kind of suspicion.
Eve's Point of View
Eve stared at everyone around her. She was just about to give up hope of finding anyone like her when she heard this really weird girl with bright purple hair call someone the head boy. How stupid am I, Thought Eve. I' can just go and ask that stupid head boy where the king's room is! So she walked towards the head boy. He was a tall boy with long dark hair tied in to a pony tail, with charcoal black eyes. Eve decided that the boy could be someone like her, whether he's a head boy or not.
"Hey. I'm one of the new kids, and I don't know where the king's room is. Can you tell me where it is, head boy? Or should I call you something else? Or sir?"
"I'll take you to the king's room for goodness sake. I'm going there myself. What's your name? I don't remember any new kids in the drama department. Are you Erioz?"
"No. I'm Eve. And I AM in the drama department. Say, are you Manfred? I bumped in to this stupid boy with his hair like a hedge this morning and he told me about trying to stay out of a scary person named Manfred, and he gave me a slight description of him. You are kind of like the description, but I don't think you're scary." Eve said coolly. Actually, she does think that going up and asking a stranger is scary, but she's not going to let anyone see that, and certainly not the head boy.
"Yes I'm Manfred, unfortunately. And that boy you bumped in to must be Charlie Bone. And… wait a second. Did you just say that I'm not scary?"
"Of course! What's so scary about you?"
Manfred stared in to her eyes, and she felt her mind going blank. He must be a hypnotist, like Zoire, Eve thought. She's had many practices with Zoire, so she was able to resist Manfred for a bit. Manfred was shocked that she could do that, but he didn't show it.
"Stop tarrying. You're going to be late and I'll have to give you detention. You must be that girl without a last name."
"Yes indeed. And you must be a Bloor, judging by how you're so hot tempered and trying to be mean," Eve said, then mockingly added "Sir."
Manfred's reaction was to push her up the stairs and into a room with a circular table.
Yosemite's Point of View
As she walked around the cafeteria, she saw that the ceiling has various instruments hanging. She saw a delicately carved wooden flute, and reached out to touch it…only to slip and crash in to someone.
"OUCH!"
The person that she crashed into was a boy with brown hair, long arms and a friendly smile.
"Hi! I'm Gabriele Silk; you must be the new endowed girl that Dr. Bloor was talking about!" He said enthusiastically
"Nice to meet you, Gabriele. I'm Yosemite Greenthumb. DON'T laugh at my name! Just call me Yosi or Greenthumb. You're one of the endowed too, right? Can you take me to the king's room?" Yosemite was glad to meet a friendly person, and even more glad to meet a friendly endowed person.
"Sure! Everyone who's new always asks that question! Well, every endowed new kid does. So! What's your endowment? I can feel the emotions of a person if I wear their clothing." Gabriele said, while he led her to the king's room.
"You can guess by my last name and nickname. All my ancestors who'd been endowed have the green thumb, like me. We can grow anything any where we want." She then raised a gloved hand and took it off, revealing a normal hand except that her thumb was a light shade of green. To demonstrate, she grew a pretty pink petunia out of a crack on the floor, and gave it to Gabriele. "Here, now you have a token of friendship!"
