Welcome to Sparks Academy!", the principal said over the school speakers."may all first years go to the second floor cafeteria for check in and assignments."
Why must I be around people already? I arrive with lots of people at the front, and I have to go to a bigger place with even more people. With my friends, Bella and Rosa, i'm fine but with 3 or more people, i turn into nothing but a girl with a lost voice
"Hey are you gonna be ok with this many people?"Rosa asked. There were about 200 people.
"I'll be fine if we don't have a lot of people with me." I reassured her.
We sat down at a table at the front and put our bags next to each other.
"Welcome to Sparks Academy. You are here to be kept safe and learn how to be kept safe. Now, here are your room assignments."
The assignments didn't take long but I got with Rosa and Bella. Thank goodness I wasn't gonna room with strangers.
"Oh, thank goodness!!"Bella and Rosa said." we thought we would stop living together and you would never speak again!!" I wanted to hug them till I drop but I wanted to be professional.
Once we got our student IDs and keycards, we went up to our dorms. When we walked through the door, our stuff was already there." they are really quick to have our stuff here already!"Bella gasped." what do you expect from a super power school with immortal people," ros asked." even when you're 300 years old, you can move as fast as hawks, the japanese hero!!"
"But the guy has wings and is too fast for his own good," I said." not to mention a bit sly."
"Look, we all have our names on our doors!"Bella gasped. 'Bella Willow' 'Rosa Rodriguez' 'Sarah Norway'
This is so cool. It's like we will be together for the rest of our lives. We go to our dorms to unpack and soon it's dinner. There is a big dinner for first years. We made a few friends too. I had trouble speaking a bit but I got used to it. Now it's all clear.
Suddenly we heard someone through a mic. It was our teachers. They had to change us all into groups/classes for our lessons, training and exams. My group was:
Sarah Norway
Bella Willow
Rosa Rodriguez
James Howard
Elizabeth Homer
Elle Spring
Xander Bolyne
Mark Ross
When I saw my team, it looked like I was gonna be alright. "Shall we introduce ourselves, then?" asked a boy. "We should get to know each other." he was right but my social anxiety kicked in.
"I'm James."
"I'm Elle."
"I'm Xander."
"I'm Mark."
"I'm Elizabeth."
"I'm Bella."
"I'm Rosa."
It was my turn now and I had sweaty hands. I wanted to speak, to move, to do something. "I-i-i'm Sa-Sarah." I said with shiever. "Sorry, I didn't hear you," Elizabeth said. "Can you repeat that?"
"You don't have to speak,"Rosa said. I wanted to hug her at that moment.
"Her name is sarah. She has social anxiety so she won't talk much to new people. It might take a bit for her to talk to you but try and talk and get to know her. That's the best way for her to not be shy." Bella and Rosa dont have to help me.
"Thats fine," Elle said. "I hope we all can laugh together one day. We can help in anyway, step by step." I was happy they were fine with me being the quiet girl but now I wanna talk even more.
