Boarding School

Boarding School

"Dear Student," the sign on the door says, "You and your entire class are invited to the most highly esteemed boarding school in London. Do not fret, a plane flight has been arranged, and your belongings loaded on the plane. Please proceed to the buses."

Everyone was shocked, and some yelled out. But in the end, they proceeded to the buses, to start a new life.

So, here is how this will work:

Everyone will get to pick one subject they like the most, and that will be the place you live. The subjects are:

Math

Writing

Art

Physical Activity

And no trading cards/collectibles are allowed in the school. Music has to be very old, like classical or medieval. Ok, here is the Character sheet;

Name

Age: You have to be under 18

Favorite Subject: listed above

Appearance:

Gender:

Pet(s); Max. Three

Would you like to be an Assistant Writer? Assistant Writers help me write the story.

Do you want a Social or Academic Plotline?; Social Plotlines are about the events and friends and crushes and that stuff, while Academic Plotlines are about studying, and getting good grades, and being a nerd and that stuff.

Also, at any time, you can change part of you character, and that will have impacts on the story.

Ready to begin?

I race to Lexie and Pound on the door, "Come in!" she chided, ugg if this is what she would do if someone like Thomas knocked on her door, she's doomed. I slam open the door, Lex is surprised but not scared.
"Come on," I take her to my dorm expling that not everyone here likes me, but I don't tell her about the people in the hospilte or what I did to Thomas, or Thomas in genral. she seemed to get the basice Idea, she scurried along behind me, like a lost kitten. Ash was waiting on my bed, looking sick with worry something told me this wasn't about Lex. I locked the door and went into the kitchen out of earshot form lexie. Ash told me what Thomas did to Hunter. "is he going to be okay?" I ask sympathicly, she shrugs. tears threating to invaid her eyes. a loud rappid knock takes us both out of the trance. I sit on the bed keeping Lexie pertectivly behind me while Ash slowly opens the door. thankfully it's only Leo.
"H-he knows, Hea-heard everything," he panted. This was bad Thomas knew that Leo was a double agent? I push a botten on my glasses and search for Thomas, he moving fast, towered MY dorm, he did know where the dorms are, this is warse than i could have imagened.
"knows what?" Lexie said. she was to innocent, was this what I was like? the purple eyes where my thing I was the only one in the family with them, Lex had golden eyes and long curly red hair, freckels acrose her forhead, and a head full of thoughts that would give me a toothach. I get up leaving Lex on the bed, I once again out of pure fear push the dresser against the door. and sit infront of it, If I could move it, Thomas would be able to. Leo gave me a puzzleing look but came over anyway.
"He just walked past?" I say. Thomas didn't even stop for a second, just kept going forward.
"Who?!" Lex said clearly getting angry we were ignoring her.
"relax, just a friend we're throwing a surpise party for," Ash said sothingly. wow Ash had a compleat diffenet side, but not for me, her stare shot daggers at me. I knew what she was thinking I should tell her what's going on and I will, just I don't want to  lose this little funny slightly annoying little sister and getting involed would do that, just look at me. I know it was selfish of me, but It's not like I'll keep it form her forever just intell I think she's ready, (which might take forever.)

Okay, I love the story so far but we are getting mixed up time-wise. So can we put things in order, please?

1. Gared wants to send raids to stop security and take down the Principal.

2. Thomas threw a knife at Hunter and it gets him right below the heart. He doesn't die, but will be close to it.

3. Lexie joins the school and PE, and finds Thomas hanging upside down from his ceiling fan. Right?

4. Ella is in the hospital with internal bleeding and broken ribs.

5. Ella is... out of the hospital now?

These are some of the things, all from different people. If we can put this all in order, that would be nice. I was thinking, Gared, maybe we can wait a little on the security thing so we can get everything else sorted?

And I think... if it is okay, that the part with Hunter being stabbed by Thomas should sort of be the last thing that just happened. I know a lot of you are joining back on here, so if you haven't, could you catch up on reading the parts? Thanks, everyone! I love the story so far, but things are getting a little confusing with all these different parts.

OMG! I never do that, but, Oh my gosh! I had a good idea. The principal takes the fights, and twists them to look like the scool needs some help, and gets police involved. Then we can have both storylines at the same time. So after the fights are finished, everyone relizes the principal is lying to get the authorities involved, then we storm the art room. That is the solution.

Okay, I like that idea. So then maybe I'll make a post as Hunter with him in the hospital (he won't be able to participate due to injuries). And one for Ash in concern for what happened. She gets angry at Thomas and the Principal for doing this and joins the swarm to the art room. And Thomas will sort of intervene after he gets out of the hospital.

So then they can storm the Art room. Bravo, great idea!

Okay, cool, Gared. So the police are gonna be the guards, right? P.S. I know I said I wasn't gonna post today, but I decided to not post VERY much today; and tomorrow I will not even go on the CB, because I know I will be irresistibly tempted to post.

I was thinking since we were near London, we could have the guards be London Police? I mean, they have the infastucture to deal with this thing.

News of the attempted murder - 3rd one this year - spreads like a wild fire. Thanks to Gared, I am out of that dreadful room. I rush over to the hospital wing alone and find Hunter's room. The nurse reached over the bed, muttering to herself, hands flying.

"Is Hunter Pierce here?" I ask from the corner of the room.

The nurse jumps, I tend to do that to people. She gives me her "sweet old lady" smile to lessen the stress. It doesn't work.

"Listen, I heard what happened. I would like to see him," I say, ignoring her always-happy personality.

"Darling, he's over here," The nuirse says softly.

I confidently walk over, prepared for the worse. What my "the worse" was, is obviously not enough. The sight of Hunter sends chills down my body and goosebumps form. The poison was bad enough. It could have killed, but I was only put in a coma. Hunter's whole body keeps on shooting in spasms. His eyes are open, glassed over, and wide. Mouth ajar. Blood soaks the sheets, chest, and gentle hands. I lay a shaking hand on his own as a tear rolls down my face.

You really don't notice how much someone means to you until they are on death's bed.

"We have no idea who did this. Your friend has internal bleeding in the head, broken bones, and was... was stabbed extremely close to the heart," the nurse says.

My eyes shoot up, but I say nothing.

"Don't worry, sweetie. He will only be here for a few days. Be glad another student found his poor soul. Again, we don't know who it was."

This is the snapping point. I let go of Hunter's hands and leap at the nurse, pinning her to the wall. I don't mean to be harsh, but this is too much.

"Don't you dare say that to me again," I growl. The nurse looks terrified, but I hold my ground. "We all know who did this. Who attacked the countless others. It was Thomas. It. Was. Thomas."

I come close to punching the lady in frustration but resist. Hunter would never forgive me for hurting an innocent nurse. I pull back, panting, sweat running down my forehead.

"I-I'm sorry," the nurse whispers. "But Thomas would never hurt a fly-"

"I said to not say that!" I shout, punching the wall inches from the woman's head.

She shrieks and ducks down, covering her head with frail hands.

"I apologize for my anger and your stupidity," I say, dangerously calm. "Let me say this one last time: Thomas. Is. Guilty. If you deny my words again, you will regret it."

"Sweetie-"

"Don't call me that!"

"D-Darling, I'll do my best to see what I can do."

"You better. I'll be back later. If you still think Thomas wouldn't hurt a fly, then you - and others - will be severely punished," I say, walking out of the room.

On my way out, my hand brushes Hunter's.

Don't worry.

We'll make it through this together.

Ok, no rush to heal and get all better. I need the charries to get really angry and voilent. So, about a week before the riots and stuff? 

submitted by Gared
(July 22, 2016 - 10:20 pm)

Yes, that sounds good. I had no intentions on having him heal quickly. You know, plot twists *grins cruelly* Thomas can do some real damage. AKA brain damage. The internal bleeding in his head, possibly? You'll have to wait and see.

But around a week for the riots sounds good. I'll help work up the tension until then.

According to Johns Hopkins, traumatic brain injury can cause violence, so the injury Thomas received could explain the murder attempts. It also can lead to problems with social skills and dealing with problems.
