"finding my place"
-In the headmasters office-
The group had moved to the headmasters office after the girls sudden fight.
The headmaster coughed, attracting the attention of everyone.
"I would like you all to meet Cortland and Sarah." the headmaster waved a hand at the
two girls sitting in the chairs across from him.
Cortland gave a guilty smile and Sarah
puffed out her cheeks.
"Sarah is going to the day class-"zero went to interrupt but the headmaster spoke up. " Before you ask Zero, Sarah was asigned to watch over Cortland during her time here at Cross Acadmey." the headmaster explained.
Cortland sighed.
"I dont need a babysitter!" Sarah pouted.
"The last time you were out in public, you nearly told a whole town about vampires." Sarah joked.
Yuki sweatdropped. 'How do you almost tell a whole town?'
"Headmaster. Why wasn't I told about any new students?" Yuki asked.
"You usually tell us when new students come." Ui questioned and looked over a Zero when she felt his stare again.
Zero had been staring intensely at her since they got to the office. Ui felt her ear get hot.
"Hmm. Well. I couldn't find any of you!" the headmaster sighed dramatically.
"Thank goodness I found you all! Otherwise daddy would have had to do allll this work by his little own self."
Zero rolled his eyes.
The headmaster pulled out a new day class uniform from a closet.
"Sarah. Since you ran away before I could give you this.." the headmaster handed Sarah her uniform. "Here. This is required for you to wear.".
Sarah scowled and crossed her arms. " Its so bland!"
The headmaster gasped
"Of course its not! It's adorable!" He said pouting, and thrust the uniform towards her.
A pink aura clouded the headmaster as he twirled around in his chair.
"uh..headmaster?" Ui put of a hand in embarrassment, trying to stop her father from Hurting himself. Zero sighed and turned to the two guardians.
"Ui. Yuki. I'm going back to my room.." Zero said as he left.
"a-alright!" Yuki said tiredly as she tried to stop the headmaster from spinning out of his seat.
The headmaster popped back to normal and fixed his glasses that were slipping down his nose when he heard the door close behind Zero.
He coughed.
"As I was going to say before..Yuki I would like you to show Cortland to her dorm room in the Moon Dorms." The headmaster instructed.
Yuki smiled and saluted. " Yes sir!". Then headmaster turned to Ui.
"Ui. I would like you to show Sarah to her room in the Sun dorms."
Ui nodded.
"Well then! Off you go!~"
The headmaster twirled around in his chair, back in his unnaturally joyful mood.
-with yuki-
After Yuki and Cortland left from the headmasters office they turned down the cobblestone pathway that lead through the center of the academy. Yuki was starting to worry though. Cortland looked out of place and people would start to notice since she wore a Night class uniform.
Yuki spun around and faced Cortland who was holding a black lacy umbrella to cover herself from the sun.
"Soo. Cortland, right?" Yuki asked. (Even though she already knew.)
Cortland smiled. "Yes! My name is Cortland Eliza Jones of the Jones aristocrat family. And yourself?"
'Jones? Thats very western.' Yuki thought. "My name is Yuki Cross from the.. um I guess the Cross family." Yuki said. "Your last name sounds western. Did you live in America before or something? Yuki questioned.
Cortland nodded. "My mother and father raised me in America, we recently moved to Japan after I was accepted to Cross academy."
They passed by the the grey sun dorms. A few students sat together laughing and others were walking around to new classes or the academy's cafe.
Some day class students huddled together noticed the two and whispered among each other before one ran over to the two girls. "Um are you a new student in the Night class?" she asked, twirling her thick blond hair between her fingers and batting her eyelashes.
"Yes I am?" Yuki sighed and pulled Cortland away from the giddy blond who was now running back to her friends. A squeal of excitement was heard soon after. No doubt because now they had someone new to idolize.
"Yuki? What's wrong?" Cortland asked confused. She had only been talking to the girl.
"Night class students are not allowed to talk to or interact with the day class students." Yuki explained.
"Huh? Is it because of..well..you know.." Cortland pointed at her fangs.
"Yeah. The headmaster just doesn't want any trouble."
"I won't be able to see Sarah then?" Cortland asked sadly. Yuki chuckled, "The headmaster said Sarah and you are a different case. you can still be with Sarah."
They stopped at the dorm gates as the gate watcher limped around the gate check-point. "What business does a guardian have today at the Moon dorms?" he questioned, eyeing her suspiciouly. "I have a new student with me." Yuki pointed behind her to Cortland. "hmmm.." He limped past Yuki and looked Cortland up and down. "Everything seems to be in order then.. you can go." he croaked, limping back inside the gate. Cortland followed Yuki through the gate as the towering Moon dorms came into view.
The Moon dormitory was a HUGE building! 'It looks more of an aristocrat's mansion than a dorm!' Cortland thought. A large clink was heard behind them, the gate had closed. The moon dorm was surronded by large Oak trees and the only place to go was to the entrance of the dorm which stood tall.
"Currently the night class is sleeping, but they wake up near the time for the
transition, and get ready for the night classes." Yuki handed Cortland her schedule and dorm key.
"This is your offical schedule and this is your dorm key. Your room should be on the
third floor on the left side near the end." Yuki said.
"You aren't going in with me?" Cortland asked confused.
"I'm not allowed in the Moon dorms." Yuki said applogisingly.
"See you around Cortland! I hope you enjoy your stay here at Cross Academy." Yuki called
out before running back down the dirt path to her next period.
Cortland closed her umbrella and opened the giant Moon dorm doors.
"This is a dorm!?" Cortland whisper yelled, so as not to wake anyone.
"You must be Cortland Jones? Right?".
Cortland followed the voice and looked up.
" Lord Kuran!" Cortland said shocked.
Cortland bowed.
" It's fine. You can rise."
Cortland pushed her bangs behind her ear and blushed. This was her first time meeting
Lord Kuran, and she wasn't properly dressed! Cortland silently scolded herself.
"Welcome to the Moon dorms and to Cross Academy. I hope we will have no trouble
with you?" Kaname asked.
"Oh! Of course! I will be on my best behavior!" Cortland happily annouced. "I won't be
any trouble!".
Kaname smiled.
"I am deeply sprry for not beinging able to be there when you were meeting the
headmaster, but some issues had come up and had to deal with them."
Cortland shook her head.
"I understand my lord. Thank you for allowing me into the night class." Cortland said
gratfully before bowing low again.
"Of course, you must excuse me. I need to get back to my room."
Kaname waved absently and left. Cortland raised her head and watched as Kaname left.
"Oh my god! I finally met him!" Cortland squeeled to herself!
Cortland was told stories by her parents about the famous Lord Kuran when she was young.
Cortland had grown a obession with him ever made her way up to the third
floor and found her dorm. Cortland cringed at the sunlight that hit her face in the
large window near her door. Unlocking it she quickly went inside and locked the door.
"I think i'll skip tommorows classes.." Cortland hissedas her skin turned red.
She hadn't had her umbrella with her when she was in the forest.
It must have been adrenile that keept the pain of her burns out of mind. Her dorm was the
last dorm on the leftside of the third floor. The Moon dorms leftside faced the forest
and the lakes. The dorm layout was similar to the Sun dorms but slightly bigger, and
since Cortland's room was on the corner, it had a two more windows than most (other than
Kanames room of course). When you walk in, on you right, there is a small kitchen with a
sink and a small fridge. On your right there is a love seat and a small wooden table.
across from that is a tv and a stand with it. Next to the love seat is a door that
connects the room to the bathroom, it has a sepreate room for the bath and toilet. There
are two doors that connect to the front room, those are the two sepreate room for the
Moon class students (useally it is two persons to a room, but this room was unused until
now, so Cortland is alone..for now :3). In each room there is a window, a queen bed, a
desk, and a small closet to store uniforms and weekend clothing. (So thats the room, I
wanted to explain how I was going to make the dorms rooms look like in this fanfiction.)
Cortland looked around. It was actually much nicer than she thought it would look like.
'The headmaster DID say I didn't have a room mate.' Cortland thought.
"More room for me then!".
-with Ui and Sarah-
Ui panted as she tried to keep up with Sarah.
"Hurry up Ui! I want to see all of the campus!" Sarah cheered.
Her eyes wildly looking at the surrounding forest.
"Um, right. Sorry." Ui caught up with Sarah.
She was staring at the large Sun dorms infront of her.
"This is the dorm you will be staying in Sarah." Ui fumbled around in her shirt pocket
before pulling out a folded Schedule and a key.
"You'll need these to get around- Huh!"
Ui looked around for Sarah, who had somehow (no surprise) gone missing.
"Sarah!" Ui called out peeved.
Sarah popped up next to Ui with a wolfish grin.
"Sorry! I'm just so excited!" Sarah said energeticly.
Ui sighed deeply and walked inside the Sun dorm with Sarah right on her heels.
"This is the Sun dormitory. You and I are actually in the same dorm together so-" Sarah
intruppeted Ui.
"Oh em gee! No WAYY! You and I will get alone, like, so well!" Sarah squeeled.
Ui sighed again. Something she had been doing a lot of lately.
'I wonder, if I sigh enough. Will I die?' Ui thought to herself while watching Sarah run
up and down the stair.
"COME ONN! I wanna se our room!" Sarah sprited up the stair well and dissappered out of
sight.
"Wait!" Ui dashed after Sarah.
Ui gripped onto Sarah sleeve and halted her.
"We are on the second floor Sarah. You passed it." Ui amusingly.
"I knew that! I was just testing you!" Sarah quickly replied. Before grabbing Ui's hand
and dragging her back down the stair well.
They finally stopped at their dorm.
"This is our dorm." Ui opened the door using her key and swung the door open as Sarah
ran in."
"Which room is mine?" Sarah asked peeking into the rightside room.
"Mine is on the right, your is the empty one on the left. We already put your luggage in
your room so you can get unpacked now." Ui explained
Sarah shook her head.
"I want to go see Coro." Sarah stated.
"Who is C-Coro?" Ui cringed at the name.
Sarah smiled and twirled around.
" Isn't it ovbious? Coro is Cortland." Sarah snickered. "I've called Cortland Coro since
we met." Sarah giggled at the memory.
"Alrighty then." Ui backwards walked slowly towards the still open dorm door.
"I have to my class. Your first day offically starts tommorow. Your free to walk around
the campus anywhere execpt the Moon dorms.".
Ui grabbed her brown folder and went to class.
I promise to revise it later! Sorry for the long period of absence. I'm currently in New york for a wedding. Tell me if you see any mistakes in the grammer?
