It's me again! CT is up! Now what did I do with that mallet…
Golem pokes head out.
Golem: Why do you need a mallet?
So I can knock Jubilee senseless for taking off with my coffee. Jubilee flies by at fast speed and does loops in air. Come back here! Wait, I must compose myself. Go ahead and read the next chapter. I should remember what I was going to say by then. Picks up mallet again and charges after Jubilee.

After twenty years, the Cloud Tower Academy for Witchcraft had changed quite a bit. Miss Gryffin was no longer the headmistress, a woman named Arianrhod had since taken over and was now giving the new students the annual rules lecture. Some of the teachers had remained, but most were no longer there, meaning that there were many new instructors for the classes. Ryder fell into the second category, and it made her somewhat nervous that she would be teaching her younger half sister how to be a witch. She looked out over the sea of faces staring at the Headmistress, and spotted several she knew. 'This is going to be one very interesting year.' She thought.
Meanwhile a few rows down, Felicity and Raven were trying to guess who taught what.
"I still say that the lady with the pink spiked hair teaches Transformations." Felicity said. 2
"No." Raven sighed. "Okay, Ryder has incantations; and the lady next to her is Miss Eira, she's the nurse. I think that the man with the short brown comb-over is Mr. Farley, but I forgot what he teaches."
"Flight instructor." A small voice answered. Both girls jumped, then looked around for the speaker. "Over here, behind you." They turned to see a young woman with shoulder length brown hair and brown eyes. "Sorry to scare you. I just thought you might want to know."
Raven knew she knew the girl, but couldn't place her until after Fee spoke up. "It's okay, Sandy. We were lost."
"I should have told you I was here, though." Sandy sighed. "So, anything else I can help with?"
"Yeah." Raven said. "What does the pink haired chick teach?"
"And her name would be nice too." Fee rolled her eyes.
"I don't remember her name, but I think she does teach transformations." Sandy said. "Lots of guy teachers this year."
"I don't even want to start guessing before class." Raven groaned as the headmistress closed her speech.
"The first dance of the year will be held at Alfea." The lime haired woman said. "It is an inter-school dance, so the fairies and specialists will be there as well. I want you girls to be on your best behavior, or our new disciplinarian, Professor Grimm, will derive fitting punishment. You are now excused."
"That was interesting." Fee said as the three walked out.
"Not as interesting as that shirt, Rave." A blond haired boy chuckled.
"You're a riot, Jase." Raven growled. "Why don't you go find some other girls to harass?"
"But they don't react like you do." Jason fake pouted. "Ow!" He yelped as something made contact with the back of his head.
"I love doing that." An amber haired witch snickered. "You need to be on your guard."
"Funny, Amber." Jason grimaced.
"We thought so." A blue headed girl giggled.
"Why do you two insist on tormenting me?" Jason glared at the twins.
"What?" Amber feigned innocence. "Us?"
"You two can have at him any time you want to." Raven said.
"I have mail!" The blue haired sister chirped as she used her phone to check her email.
"You always have mail, Lapis." Amber said.
"It's from Sean." Lapis said. "And he said…. That little jerk!"
"What did he do?" Fee asked.
"I think he called her a bee-yach." Amber snickered.
"Oh, he is so gonna get it!" Lapis growled.
"Dare you to spell-mail him!" Raven smirked.
"Done!" Lapis said as she punched in some letters. "Now let's go find our rooms. I'll bet Amy can show us where they are."
"You girls wanna go see Magix when we get our stuff moved in?" Jase asked.
"Why not?" Sandy shrugged.
"Then we can get Sean in person." Raven snickered. "Any good ideas?"
"Turn him into something." Ambi said. "Something gross."
"Are we allowed to do that?" Sandy blinked.
"Sure." Raven waved.
"Our sister does it all the time." Lapis said distractedly. "I think I'll try something cute instead. Gross would give him too much joy."
"Two words: pink butterfly." Fee said. "He won't be able to do anything then. Just make sure it's a temporary spell."
"Yeah, we don't want to chase him around Magix for six hours like we did my sister." Jason said.
"No, Jay, you turned your sister into a daisy." Felicity corrected. "We had to chase you around."
"And you looked so cute as a hamster." Lapis snickered.
"Bite me." Jason said. "Now get out of here! I don't think we'll have the same rooms!"
"I should hope not." Amber huffed. She marched off down the hall and eventually found Amethyst. After showing the girls around, Amethyst and the girls and Jason headed into downtown Magix to cause a little mayhem.

Random comment of the day, if you have a Xanga, I will start posting my drawings on my site, sapphirewavejemstone. Sapphire should be up already, but I'll get the others scanned in soon.
