Chatterbox: Inkwell

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?

Paralia sighed. She couldnt believe the circumstances of breakfast in this place. She spooned up a little of her sloopy glop, then put down down and pushed the bowl away. Why did she ever choose Art? She had wished for all four subjects, but the teachers wouldn't allow it. She sighed again. Anima next to her looked at her sympatheticly. Suddenly a voice came over the annoucement. A competition? And it was totally not fair that Art was against PE!! She envied the writing and math subjects. The PE students at the next table grinned wickedly. Suddenly, something growled behind her, Anima shouted, "Stay away, PE Brat!!", and Paralia fell to the floor, out cold.

Today is a holiday for many of our Writer students, so Gared is giving us a small break for the afternoon. Some of us quickly run to find peace and quiet in our dorm rooms. Others, like me, want to greet the new Writer Student, Izabell. 

I find the young girl outside, whispering to herself as she gently fingers the leaves of a small sunflower. I come up and sit down beside her, and say the first thing that comes to mind.

"That is a beautiful sunflower. One of the art kids planted it earlier this year so she could create a clay replica. Interesting, really. The replica is so accurate, down to the very veins of the plant."

Izabell turns to me, her eyes wide with excitement.

"Really? I love sunflowers and art! You must show me the figurine some day," Izabell says. "I don't know if you heard, but I am the new kid here... My name is Izabell."

"I love those things as well. Nature and art flow so perfectly together, like pen and paper," I respond, having found a new friend. "I heard we had a new Writer Student, but I never knew the details."

Izabell nods respectfully, and goes back to examining the plant. This is when I bring up the Writer's nightmare - the dance.

"Err... Izabell, I do not know if Gared mentioned this to you yet, but... there is a dance soon. He wants everyone to find a partner."

Izabell's green eyes glint happily as she jumps up. I follow her lead as she leads me to the edge of the woods.

"I actually did hear that from someone else. That is why I... I want to ask someone to go with me. But he is in there," Izabelle nods to the woods where shouts could be heard.

"You like Soren?" I guess simply.

"Sort of... He reminds me of someone I knew back at home," Izabell laughs.

I catch sight of Thomas, the PE leader, and shake my head.

"Well, I won't say you are wrong, but he is already going with Cloe. And anyways, Writers and Physical Activity kids don't mix well here. Sadly, we are seen as fish food, the bottom of the chain," I say with a sigh.

Izabell shrugs and heads back to the sunflower. She bids me farewell and says we can talk more later. I walk off, waving, and hope she is right.

~Izabell

I make my switch to math. Mathletes at my old shool was my favorite group. Mabye I'll feel more at home. "Grace," I tell my clumsy dog. "Let's go for a walk." I decide to walk in a secluded area, where almost no one goes. Sure, I guess I'm shy. But as my dog and I walk in the sunflower garden. I feel like a sun flower. perhaps beautiful, but always looking up to something. Let's face it, even though I was a champion in compitition. I was never popular. No wy a boy is asking me out. Soren is already with cleo. I'm not trying to cause violence so I push all the tiny jelous feelings away. Soren doesn't know me. I'm just the smart shy new girl. The nerd with glasses. My life is too ordinary to be mixed up on drama.

Hey, should I make a few more guys? I feel bad about making another girl- I didn't realize we had so many! Lots of girls won't have partners.

Writing and Math students, I will be doing dinner in my Dorm, well the Math Dorm, for anyone who does not want to go to the Dance. And I need a lookout for the insane Art and PE students, who really hate me.
