---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I didn't know where I was. It was dark and I found myself strapped to a chair, with no way of getting loose. What was I doing here? I struggled and fought to find a way to free just one of my arms but I failed. Sounds filled this dark room, and I quickly reconized the sounds as broken sobs. They were coming from somewhere in the room....I looked around but it was useless. I could see nothing around me, only the chair I was sitting in and my arms planted out in front of my body. Just when I thought everything was hopeless and I was going to die, a door flew open, bringing in light. A man stood in the doorway with a large item..an axe? I hope not.

"Help me!" I screamed between broken cries. He didn't speak, he just drifted closer. I tried again. "Please, please, help me! Get me out of here!" He finally spoke.

"Hello Maddy." he spoke in a dark, deep ancient voice. I began to breathe heavily, and I could feel the shock planted onto my face. He raised the axe, and yes it was an axe, and chuckled. The sound made me shiver and I screamed again. "Welcome to Kettle University." and with that, he laughed again and silenced me to my death. I just felt the stinging pain of it cutting into me...

"NO!!" I yelled, jumping up out of my bed. Sweat poured from my face and I found myself without covers over me. I gasped for air and looked at my bedroom. My sweet smelling, pretty bedroom. I wiped my forehead with the back of my hand and quickly hopped out of my bed. The clock said 4:30am. With a groan I headed downstairs. My heart was still thumping loudly as I prepared a class of ice cold water for myself. Why did I have that dream? I obviously had the university on my mind before I went to bed..but it was nothing of dark thoughts. Just about what I was going to do, say and go when I got there. I swallowed loudly and my pulse was quickening at my nervousness. In just about an hour and a half my life would be changed. Again, the dungeon. The cell that I could never unlock. One or two years didn't seem so bad before, now it just seemed like forever.

"Maddy?" a voice called. I jumped and spun around quickly, throwing everything on the kitchen counter onto the floor with a gust of wind.

"Oh," I sighed "Mom. You scared me!" I growled. She just stared at the mess on the floor. I started to pick things up and finally she awakened out of her trance.

"I'm sorry, I just didn't think you would get up THIS early. I was planning to wake you at 5 for your train.." she mumbled. I groaned.

"I just woke up, okay? I didn't plan it, just..I don't know." I exhaled in frustration. She had a worried look on her face.

"Honey, I know your upset but it's going to be okay." she soothed me. I didn't look at her. I didn't want to be soothed, or even made to feel better. Today was going to be crap and I knew it. My parents knew it. I certaintly was NOT going to let my mother make me think otherwise.

"Yeah whatever." I threw the cup I was drinking out of into the sink and stomped off. I could feel my mother's eyes on me as I gritted my teeth and stormed out of the kitchen. I went back to my bedroom and began to get dressed. I refused to glance at the clock, because if I did I knew I was going to hyperventilate.

5:35am

The tears from my eyes kept coming. I was dressed, I ate, and now I was almost on my way to my cell. I had a funny feeling in my stomach, the feeling you get when your scared silly. For the past time I was taking deep breaths and constantly checking my labtop for emails that I would not be getting from anyone at any time soon. I knew that, of course, but I was just trying to keep myself busy. I nearly flew off the chair I was sitting on when my name was called.

"Madison, hurry up! We are going to miss your train!" my father yelled. I groaned and grabbed my bag. My blue suitcases were already packed in the car outside, so I rushed downstairs and out the door. My mom was smiling at me and my dad was just annoyed since he figured out he was the one who had to drive me to the station. My mom grabbed me in a big hug.

"I'm going to miss you so much! Promise to write to me as soon as you get the chance, and call me when you get settled in your room!" she cried. I laughed.

"Of course, Mom. Now, I have to go..dad is about to have a stroke." I rolled my eyes. She kissed me on the cheek and I got in the car. No matter how much I wanted to go, I wasn't about to cling to my mother and beg her not to send me. Certaintly not that. I watched her fade away as we drove further and further from the home. It was heart-breaking for her to lose her only child for at least a year, but she managed to keep a smile on her face. My father didn't say a word to me, so I guess he was just thinking about what to say when I had to leave. I sighed as we past the familiar houses out of town. I looked down at the floor of the car, fearing that if I saw anyone I knew I would cry.

I panicked as the clock read 5:53am and we were not anywhere near the train station. I didn't want to say anything to my dad, but we were only going 37 miles per hour. Couldn't he just..I don't know..go faster!? I bit my lip and looked out the window. To back me up, the train station was there. My eyes widened. Wait, it was NOT there a few seconds ago! I was sure of that..no not sure, positive. What the heck? I looked at my dad but he was just staring forward. He parked in the small lot and got my bags out for me.

"Well, Maddy. I guess this is goodbye." he just looked down. I nodded, but then gave him a hug.

"Bye dad, I will see you soon enough. I promised to call mom, so I will talk to you when I get there." I mumbled. He ended the hug, and got me a luggage cart to push my suitcases on. I sighed and entered the station. To my surprise there were MANY people there. I did not even want to think about counting them. It was weird though, no matter how many people were around me I seemed to be able to find everything perfectly. It was now 6:00 and I was waiting for my train. Biting my lip constantly and breathing deeply I managed to calm myself down. I kept thinking I missed the train but soon enough it came. I pratically ran to the door, handed the man my ticket, and found a seat.

I pushed through the narrow aisle, looking for a open seat. The train was filled, and I wondered how many kids had powers. I checked my breathing, it was slightly normal. I was about to sit down across from a girl but she had weird purple eyes, and that did not look friendly to me. A boy was sitting by himself in one of the sitting areas, but he had fangs. A vampire? Maybe. I hope not. I found an empty area and sat by myself. Like I said before, I did not want friends as freaks. I didn't want purple eyed girls or boys with fangs as friends. I groaned as I thought about how this ride would be 5 hours long. I wanted to keep myself busy the whole way, but how? Sleep? No way! I bit my lip and looked down the aisle to where the purple eyed girl was sitting. She was listening to music. Music! I pulled out my ipod and nearly shoved the plugs into my ears. I blasted a song by random and closed my eyes. My hair was in my face half the way there, so I gave up and put it into a curly ponytail. I found out the boy with the fangs kept watching me, and if he didn't stop staring I was about to go over to his seat and smack him..whether he was a vampire or not. I closed my eyes, again, but the suspense was killing me. I didn't want that boy to sneak up on me, so I opened them and just decided to close watch him. This was torture...ALREADY. I wasn't even at the school yet and yet of course I was already being stalked (basically).

5 hours later

I was a mess. That boy finally gave up watching me about 2 hours ago, and stared at the window. The purple eyed girl was not listening to music, but sleeping. I wanted to know how she had so much trust in this train of freaks. I had let a tear or two fall from my face, and when I noticed outside was raining I quickly pulled myself together. I could not stop thinking about that dream I had. Did it mean something? Who was the man, and why did he kill me? He didn't kill me but he almost did. If I had not woke up I probably would have- oof! My head hit the back of the seat hard, and I smacked it off a wooden bar. The boy with the fangs stood up, and I followed. Everyone was standing up and I almost crumbled to the ground. I was here. At..at..Kettle University. I was here. I grabbed my bags and dragged them out of the train. I walked down the train's stairs one at a time and gazed in front of me in wonder. My mouth fell open as I locked my eyes on the school. It was, beautiful! Nothing ever like the pictures, it was...perfect. I was took out of my moment of peace by a voice.

"Excuse me, are you Madison Kiown?" a voice called. I turned around and my jaw fell again. There standing in front of me was the boy with the fangs.

------------------------------------------------------------------------
