Chapter 6 - Arriving at the supernatural academy

Aurora's Pov

I was woken up by a gentle tap on my arm by a blonde girl with blue eyes, I immediately recognized her as the princess of the water dragon kingdom.

"Hydra?" I said in a sleepy voice.

"Hi Aurora" she said while grinning. "What's she so happy about". I asked myself

"Hey" I replied

"I never knew you would be attending the academy" she said. "Neither did I". I thought. "I don't know anybody here and I was also bored so when I saw you I decided to wake you up since you were asleep" she continued "hope you don't mind"She asked.

"Nope, I don't I was also feeling bored and that's why I fell asleep" I replied

"Oh thank goodness, I thought you were going to be mad" she said while smiling.

We ended up chatting till the plane landed. Getting down from the plane, we were approached by a tall dark haired man who seemed to have been waiting for us, his face etched with a scowl that almost looked permanent or is it?. On getting to us, he led us to a big black bus that will take us to the academy, apparently we weren't the only ones in the plane going to the supernatural academy, about fifteen other people were also led to the bus.

On getting inside the bus,Hydra and I walked straight to the back of the bus , inside the bus was really spacious, the interior were white and black, black leather chairs, while the windows were covered by white curtains, it was sparkly clean and extremely gorgeous. Some students were already seated in the bus when we entered, hydra and I took the two empty seats on the left side of the bus.

Where we were seated, there was a werewolf with blonde hair and bluish gray eyes who was also seated close to us, he was handsome and Hydra was totally smitten with him, I knew that cause she couldn't stop staring at him through out the entire journey to the academy. And she was too shy to talk to him so she just kept staring at him and I was totally sure he noticed cause he kept smirking whenever he looked at her, she wasn't aware of that and I'm not going to tell her cause I am enjoying the drama.

After some time, the bus came to a stop in the middle of nowhere, it was a forest, I'm certain, though I'm guessing from the sounds I'm hearing, we were all told to get down. After we all stepped out from the bus I scanned the area, definitely right, we were in a forest, everywhere was quite dark, we were surrounded by huge trees and sounds of different forest creatures, I love nature but there is something off about this forest, the aura it gave wasn't pure and definitely didn't give me the feeling that being around nature gave to me. The grumpy man stood at the front telling us to look and follow him carefully, that he wasn't going to go in search of anyone if they get lost. We kept walking then came to a stop when a woman with forest green eyes came into view, she has a stern expression on her face. After scanning us briefly she started waving her hand, chanting. A witch, I thought inwardly.

I was engulfed in a warm tingly feeling and I'm sure everyone felt it too because of the gasp that erupted from the lips of the other students. Almost immediately we found ourselves teleported to a different location. I looked at the witch who stood straight staring ahead impressed by her magic, she teleported such amount of people and she didn't feel drained or anything. Looking around I noticed we were in some sort of a valley area. The supernatural academy came into view it was built like a castle surrounded by mountains and huge trees. From where we stood a cliff could be seen at the north side of the school. The supernatural academy had an eery look to it, it was so dark and surrounded by dead trees, it was a seven-story castle. Everywhere was dark like it was nighttime infact it was darker than nighttime. It creeped me out. About an hour or two ago when we got into the bus it was daytime. afternoon to be precised, so what's going on.

We were led by the grumpy man past a bridge that led to the school grounds. on passing the bridge the grumpy man stopped moving and the witch with him stepped forward, I wonder why. It was after she walked into the school ground that mr grumpy followed telling us to follow him. Entering the school ground the witch stepped back while mr grumpy stepped forward,we were told by him to go to a large hall located at the ground floor of a building a couple yard from where we stood for some sort of welcome assembly. Throughout our journey to the academy,his face remained in the same scowl that was on his face when he first approached us, I think I'm going to call him mr grumpy. He said that we were going to be addressed about everything that we would need to know about the academy.

The building looked it was just recently built, it look more modernized than the castle, it looks like a typical modern school building while the castle look so old and ancient that have me wondering how it's still standing. Stepping into the building, it indeed looked modern, it was very bright inside, lockers were scattered across the main hallway of the ground floor. We walked down the hallway that led to the hall that Mr grumpy directed us to. Getting into the hall we realized it's already filled up with different supernaturals. "Guess we were the last set". I thought to myself. So Hydra and I sat at the back and almost immediately a tall man with good looking features appeared.

"Welcome students to the supernatural academy I'm very pleased to welcome you, my name is demitrey and I'm your principal " he began. He continued by stating the rules and also explaining what to expect in the academy. Afterwards he stepped down and a petite woman with black curly hair stepped up to speak.

"Welcome once again students" she said "Right now we will ask you to make your way to your dorm where you will meet your roommates whom have already arrived and has been addressed and also you'll find your uniforms and your schedule on your bed" ugh so we get wear uniforms". I groaned in my mind. "And the boys dorm is on the second floor three per room while the girls dorm is on the third floor two per room" she continued " And you are expected to be in the main dinning Hall by 8pm for dinner. So go and unpack your bags and get ready, thank you all and have a wonderful year" she concluded. Hydra and I, including the other students exited the building and walked towards the direction of the castle. Inside the castle was built in a Victorian era style, but it seemed like they were trying to modernize it, we were currently on the ground floor, a large chandelier was found on the ceiling of the entrance hall illuminating the whole place.

There was a large staircase at the centre of the entrance hall that is connected to two other staircase at the both side of the main staircase. Climbing the staircase at the centre of the entrance hall, we both took the other staircase that is connected to the left side of the main staircase. Hydra and I went in search of our dorm room she found hers first then she left, walking ahead I found a door with my name and another name "Lilith daemon". "What a weird name", I thought. On getting inside I saw a girl with red dyed hair seated on one of the beds.

"Hey" she said "I'm Lilith a demon".

"Ohhh so that's why her name is daemon". I thought to myself. "Hi my name's Aurora" I told her

"Nice name and you look cute" she commented.

"Thanks your hair looks gorgeous" I replied.

She smiled while staring at me like she was trying to figure out something.

"Erm is there something you want to ask" I asked her

"What are you?" She asked genuinely confused.

"Excuse me?" I asked confused.

"I mean what creature are you, cause from your smell, I can tell you're a dragon but there is also something else mixed with the smell or are you mated" she asked.

"Oh" I finally understood what she was saying. "I'm an hybrid" I replied "A dragon and a witch" I said while unpacking my bags.

"Wow that's cool" she said "So you must be powerful"

"Yh Not really" I shrugged.

"How come" she asked.

"In normal sense I'm supposed to be very powerful, but since I have no control of my powers I can't say so" I replied.

"Oh" she said and I was glad she didn't ask why. While unpacking I looked around the room and found it too bright for my liking. They really were trying really hard to modernize it, i thought to myself looking at the light pink fluffy covers and grey headboard, with pink fluffy pillows, the room was painted cream, with a cream curtains, a white bed side table, a night lamp and an alarm clock was placed on it. Two grey fluffy bean bags were placed in one corner of the room. Two grey wardrobe were placed at the corner of the room, a door at the other side of the room which I'm going to guess is the bathroom, the room was quite large and spacious though.

"I don't like the room either" she said "it's too bright for a demon but there's was nothing I could do" guess she saw the look of distaste on my face.

"I guess". I replied shrugging.

Lilith stood up folding her uniform, taking it to her wardrobe. That immediately reminded me of the fact that we get to wear uniforms, I immediately walked up to my bed to see the uniform and upon seeing it, I realized it wasn't that bad. It was mostly black, the uniform consists of a white collared long sleeve shirt, a short black pleated skirt with black stripes at the bottom, a black tie and a black jacket designed with white stripes, the school logo on the breast pocket. I also saw my schedule but decided on going through it later.

After unpacking my bags, I went straight to my bed exhausted, deciding on reading a book before falling asleep while reading.

I woke up from sleep to Lilith shaking me telling me it's almost time for dinner, great another Edna. I said to myself. I went into the bathroom and took my bath after picking up a simple dress to wear to dinner.

"Ok I'm done" Lilith said after dressing.

"Me too" I replied. But looking at the clock I realized we were over twenty minutes late.

"Looks like we are late" I said to Lilith

"Then let's hurry up" she said while walking out of the room with me trailing behind her.
