The chariot swiftly landed on the platform for the schools
entrance, the two adults hopping off and helping all of the
students off. Theo shakily hopped off. Don't look, don't look
down, it'll just make it worse... He squeezed his eyes shut.

AJ leapt from the chariot, and landed on her feet. 3-point landing.
She watched the rest of her "classmates", and tried to discern some
more of their powers. She followed the teachers, and wondered what
came next.
Once everyone was off the chariot, the adults ushered them inside.
Inside it was a grand hall with marble floors and various doors and
corridors and pillars with a big staircase in the middle. There
were various other groups of kids and various other adults, and all
the adults were making attempts to shush the students. Theo didn't
like the loud noises of everyone, and covered his ears.

AJ looked around in wonder. She could see people with the powers of
ice and thunder, wind and fire. And those with talents she couldn't
see could likely move things with their minds or something. She
waited to see what would happen next.
The teachers tried shushing all of the students before giving up.
And then one loud voice rang through the hall, echoing. "Silence!"
It successfully got everyone to shut up. "The headmistress shall
speak soon." The voice said, and nothing happened for a couple of
seconds. Most of the students started to get antsy, and the nosie
level rose again. Nobody seemed to notice a little girl leaning on
the balcony overlooking all the students, smiling and waiting
patiently.

Athena didn't find the grand school all that amazing. It looked
like her mansion. But her mind kicked into overdrive anyways,
noting all the shadows, the best escape routes, all the students...
She did this everytime she went to a new place, in case she needed
to make a quick escape from all the perfectness of the place.
Lunara... she was more of a silent observer all the way through. In
the chariot, she did have many questions but the guards and people
that escorted her did not listen to her. Almost like they were deaf
to her exclusively. Still though, as Little Miss Persuasion enters,
she immediately felt power crept. People with elemental energy,
draconic fires... and all she has is a bit of charisma.
Well if there is one small advantage is that, since her father
liked to ambush her as a surprise, she was one of the few who did
not flinch at the voice, instead just turning around a little
annoyed. What now...
You know the first rule in combat?
Shoot them before they shoot you.
Athena realized she was getting a lot of stares. Not again! It
wasn't surprising though, she had won many competitions and came
from a prestigious family, so she was often all over the news.
Still, that didn't make it any less annoying. Most people looked at
her with awe and even a little bit of fear, and it wasn't that she
disliked the attention, she just disliked what people looked at her
for. They were always oohing and ahhing, looking at her like she
was a goddess or something. All she wanted was for people to look
at her and see a normal person. Not the princess her mother wanted
her to be.
"Silence!" The room immediantly silenced again, and people started
looking around. "The headmistress shall speak now." The voice
boomed, and a second, more childish voice rang out. "Now now
Gerald, we must be patient." The voice scolded. It came from the
top of the stairs. There was a child on the stairs. "Hello!" She
said, waving.

Athena had noticed the child, but she had not expected her to be
the headmistress. This was going to prove interesting. She decided
to at least give this girl a try, and that was an honor in itself,
considering most headmistresses she'd met were waved away pretty
quickly.
Kitty looked up at the Headmistress in surprise. If the
headmistress is a mere child, she must have a large amount of
power. She glanced down at her hands, suddenly miserable.
And all I have is a weak fire power and weak healing magic... I
don't belong here.
Kitty turned around and headed for the door, head down, not paying
attention to where she was going.
