Its going to be fun writing this..
Valkyrie woke in barn that was filled with hay. She groaned and rolled over, Banging her head on the stone floor. She cursed and a hand touched her shoulder, She looked up the Amelia, Who was wearing a medevil dress and was carrying school uniform over her arm.
"Where the hell am I!" Valkyrie asked. Looking around her.
"Took you back in time a few years, Baby doll. You're in the 1600's and you're attending BlackThorn Academy for Sorcerers. So i suggest you get changed behind a pile of hay and get going."
"What?" Valkyrie screached. "I am not attending any academy when i don't even know why i have been dragged back in time four hundred years. Let alone not having any deondrant!" Amelia rolled her eyes at the girl, She knew she would've freaked out the way she was.
"There is a boy going to school here that we want you to keep you're eye on for a little while." She said. "And here is a bottle of deodrant!" She cursed. Throwing it at her.
"You got some perfume aswell?" Valkyrie asked sweetly, And was given a bottle of Hollister strawberry perfume. "Thanks!" She said. Running behind a hay bush and getting changed, But as she did, She spoke to Amelia. "Why do you need me?"
"Because your a Official Santuary Detective. Even if you are only 16" Amelia said. Rolling her eyes again. "We couldn't get Skulduggery, He would be a little too obvious to..Don't worry"
"Who?" Valkyrie asked as she sprayed herself with the deodrant.
"You'll find out sooner or later." Amelia replied as Valkyrie came out of hiding. She was wearing a black School blazer that had white lines outlining all the trims and the colar. A red blouse hung around her frame underneith the blazer and a black skirt was on her waist. Black knee high socks were pulled up her legs and black boots were loosly tied up around her ancles.
"This isn't the kind of thing i was expecting for a academy in the 17th centuary." Valkyrie paused.
"Its a Magical academy. They do what they want. Regardless of rules."
"Right.."
"Come on. Where ment to be meeting everyone in the grand hall in a minuite." She said as she handed Valkyrie a bag, It was a black leather with blue clips and buckles. "Keep your stuff in the there" She said, Letting Valkyrie pile in all her stuff before they began there walk into the school grounds.
xXx
Valkyrie stood there nervously behind Amelia behind the giant black oak doors that led into the grand hall. Amelia adjusted the dress around her, It was a full length black thing that had a boddic which was pulled tightly around her chest. She carried a sword in a belt around her waist and her black curley hair was stretching down her back. The devilish look was back in her eyes.
A woman walked up to them. She looked to be in her 60's and she was wearing black robes. Pure silver hair was cut below her ears and was carfully curled. She had brown eyes and big, round glasses. Although she looked like a innocent old woman, Valkyrie didn't doubt she was dangerous.
"Hello, My dear" She said in a croaky voice, Giving Valkyrie a pat on her hands. She turned to Amelia and smiled. "Miss.." She trailed off, But was awnsered.
"Jones" She smiled. "This is my daughter Valkyrie Cain." She said. Indicating to Valkyrie who stared at her with wide eyes.
"What a beautiful name" The woman sighed and smiled at the same time. "My name is Mrs Scáth"
Shadow. Valkyrie emediatly thought, The Irish translation of Shadow. She was a Neormancer.
"It is your turn to go in now," The woman said, Pushing them towards the door. "Go, Go!" She said.
Amelia looked at Valkyrie before pushing open the door, Rows of teenagers sat on chairs at tables turned their heads to stare at them. Amelia walked with a stride up the the headmaster, Who was a tall, Strong man with black hair that was brushed off his face. He looked to be growing old with the clearly visable white streakes through his hair and he had a stubble around his face. He turned to them, His long black coat and black suit flowing around his frame. "Please welcome, Miss Jones and her daughter, Valkyrie Cain." He grinned, The teens at the tables whistled and cheered and Valkyrie stood there awkwardly, Looking down at her boots.
"Miss Jones is a highly trained Adept and her daughter her is a Neormancer-" He began, But was cut off by Amelia.
"-No, She's a Elemental with Neormancer powers. Thats what makes my little Baby Doll so dangerous" She grinned, putting a arm around Valkyrie who grinned and put a arm around her.
"Wow, Isn't that a coincidence. My son who goes to this school shares the same ability." He said. That was when Valkyrie noticed how velvety his voice was. How tall he was. How he was wearing a suit. How-
Buggeration. Valkyrie's mind cursed, Just before the man called out to his son.
"Skulduggery, Were the heck are you?" He cursed. A young boy around Valkyrie's age pushed himself off the wall and stood strait, Revieling how tall he was. He had golden hair that ended just below his ears and a fringe that was sprayed across his grey eyes - They had golden rims and lilac hints that blended perfectly with his slightly tanned skin. He was broad shouldered and strong muscled underneith his school uniform, which was just like Valkyrie's.
"Yeah?" He called back. Yep, That was him alright. And all the girls were sending Valkyrie death glares.
"Maybe you should come and meet the girl who shares a ability with you." He smirked. Skulduggery took long, Slow strides up the aile towards her. He stood there, infront of her his eyes fixed onto hers.
"I don't know why, Little missy" He said, Picking up a strand of her hair. "But it feels like i should know you. And yet, I have not heard who the devil you are." Valkyrie's eyes widened and she looked away. Fixing her gaze on the floor.
"Your cute" He said, A smile playing across his lips. But she didn't reply. "Not talkative, Is she?" He asked Amelia who nodded.
"Shut your face, Pleasant." Valkyrie growled and Skulduggery narrowed his eyes.
"How did you know my last name?" He asked, whipping his head towards her and she fixed a glare on him, Not responding.
"Being like that, Skulduggery" Said a voice. "Won't get you anywhere with the new girl"
"Shut your face, Eskrine." Skulduggery grumbled. Turning away from Valkyrie and walking away, Taking his place agaist the wall again.
Valkyrie looked out of the corner of her eye at Eskrine, He was the same, Just...Younger. He didn't have all the features he did back in 2011, But she could still tell it was him. He turned to Skulduggery and grinned. "Thats your perfect match, Mate"
"I'll shoot you." Skulduggery replied.
"I'll shoot the both of you if you call out again" Growled Mrs Scáth. Giving them both glares. They shut up and looked sheepishly at the ground, But Ravel looked up to her and gave that glistening grin and a devilish wink.
"Yori Lovegrowth" Skulduggery's dad called. "Show these people to the guest dorms."
"Which ones, Sir?" Yori said. She had long blonde hair that stretched all the way down her back and was thin as a rake.
"The ones near my quarters."
"But their still not ready yet, Sir"
"Oh?" He said. He looked back at the teachers behind him who gave shrugs saying they didn't know and he looked back and Yori. "Then take them to my quarters, I'll send them to another room from there." He said. But Valkyrie hadn't really took any notice, She was to buisy noticing the fact that Skulduggery's eyes kept on darting to her, Then darting away.
Yori skipped up to them, Her uniform flowing around her. "Come with me" She said. Amelia and Valkyrie both exchanged looks before they walked out the doors.
"I must admit." Valkyrie said. "That was a short introduction.."
Yori looked back at her and smiled. "He is no good at speeches, But really good at his job"
