Chapter Two: Meet S… times two

The twins Starlight, Star for short, and Nova had been awake for hours because they were excited to finally be going to a normal school. They had gone to expensive private schools their entire lives, simply because their family could afford it. It had taken them both to nag their parents for months to let them go to Beacon Academy.

Star was sitting in her room brushing out her hair for the 100th time before standing and brushing off her clothes, even though there was nothing on them. Star was one of those girls that had to have everything perfect. And she was kind of a snob. To her, everyone was a servant; she always got her way, and if she didn't, there would be hell to pay. Meaning that whoever denied her had to deal with daddy dearest. Star had only fought to go to the 'commoner' school, as she put it because she couldn't bear to be separated from her sister, who was technically older than her by 3.5 minutes. The only time Star and Nova were separated was when they were asleep, getting changed, or using the restroom. Starlight had dressed in commoner's clothes instead of the normal dress she always wore because she wanted to fit in and get a feel for the environment at the school. Once she'd done that she would go back to dressing her normal way. Her objective for the first week was to befriend all the popular kids so that she could stay with her 'own kind,' as she put it.

Nova was sitting on the couch with a book, reading as always. This time it was a book called 'The Man with Two Souls,' and she was really enjoying it. Her reasoning for wanting to go to Beacon Academy was that she was tired of constantly being in high-end schools that didn't have very good libraries. She had heard that the library at Beacon was amazing and that there were also a ton of bookstores near the school. Nova, unlike her sister, didn't care about fitting in or sticking with popular people; she just wanted to go to class and read books. Sometimes it bothered her that her sister never left her alone, but she was learning that when she had a book in her hand, she didn't want to talk.

The Moonshine family had maids, butlers and tons of unused rooms in the mansion they called 'Moonshine Manor'. They were one of the richest families in Remnant. The family itself consisted of Starlight, Nova, and their father; their mother had died from cancer 2 years ago. Since her death, the family had become distant towards each other, except for Star and Nova.

Once it was time to go, Star left her room and met her sister on the front steps of the manor to wait for the driver to pull the car around. They had packed all their stuff into the car the night before so that it was ready. The drive to the airship drop-off was rather quiet; the driver didn't speak unless spoken to, Nova had her nose in a book, and Starlight was looking at the scenery while listening to music on her scroll. The trip, in total, lasted for about 20 minutes, and according to Star, it was uneventful with a side of boring.

When they arrived at Beacon Academy, Star and Nova went straight to the auditorium to wait for initiation to start. They didn't bother talking to anyone or stopping to look at anything. Nova was too busy reading and Starlight had to make sure Nova didn't walk into anything because she couldn't put the book down long enough to walk anywhere.
