Sir Edward's School For The Supernatural

Sir Edward's School For The Supernatural sounds like a weird place. From the campus being lit up by raw fire with NO supervision (hey, I've been brought up in a world of safety) to the professors acting really strange, it doesn't sound like the kind of place I'd want to go to. Hell, I don't want to go there.

I groaned as I let my back hit the wall, my mother telling me I have to go to this place.

"Gerard, we both now about your condition, and this is for the best of us." My mother said, and I groaned again.

"Look, even your brother's going!" She said, pointing at my brother Mikey who had just stopped in the middle of rolling his suitcase out the door, wondering why his mother was pointing at him. I rolled my eyes.

"What are they going to do about my 'condition'?" I said, using quotation marks around the word. My mother sighed.

"There are people there like you." She said, and I bolted upright.

"There are?" I said.

"That's why it's called Sir Edward's School For The Supernatural, idiot!" She said, putting extra emphasis on the word.

Now something about that made me want to go.

See, the only other person I've met with a thing like me is my brother. My parents have told me over and over again not to tell anybody about it, which I haven't, and I think they're scared of us slightly because nobody knows where these things came from.

"Alright." I said, and my mother sighed in relief. She got my suitcase as I grabbed my bag, hoisting it over my shoulders and walked to the car.

I swept my pinkish red hair out of my eyes as I hopped into shotgun, my mother getting into the driver's side. I looked behind me to see Mikey on his phone in the backseat. I smiled and focused my attention back on the front as the car started moving, and we were on our way.

I must have fallen asleep at some point because the next thing I knew I was being shaken awake by my mother, and pretty soon I was grabbing my bags out of the trunk. After I got my bag over my shoulder and my suitcase in my hand, I truly took a proper look at the school.

It was stunning.

With the buildings on either sides of lakes and rivers sparkling slightly in the sunshine, and several people running around and shooting stuff at others.

The buildings themselves looked like they were straight out of the Middle Ages, sort of castle-y and really cool.

It's hard to explain this entire place in words, so I'll just have to say it is beautiful.

"Right. Let's go!" I heard my mother say, and I whirled around to see her walking towards an office like place, so I followed her and soon we were at the receptionists.

Once we were inside the main building, time seemed to go into reverse as everything looked like it was taken right out of the medieval period. Hell, even the phones looked old.

"Hello!" The bubbly receptionist said, and my mother walked over to the desk and started talking to her.

I waited around for a while, looking out of the window onto the campus, and just observing the students playing out there. It was weird, seeing people throw weird shit at another, but it looked like they were having fun. Once, a guy threw some fire at another, only to have it miss by a lot and land in a tree, setting it on fire, and someone had to put it out before other plants were set ablaze. It was pretty funny to say the least.

"Gerard? Michael?" I heard the receptionist say, and I turned around to see her standing up from behind her desk, holding out two keys in front of her. "Here are your dorm keys. Gerard, you are 2022A and Michael, you are 2009A." I was a little disappointed that we weren't going to be near each other, but it wasn't that far.

"Right. You better be off then" Mother said, slightly wiping her eyes. I went up and hugged her tight as a goodbye, and so did Mikey, and she left, leaving us to go to our rooms.

Eventually, after walking through the dorm halls for seemingly hours, we both found our rooms and said our goodbyes.

I stood at the door to my dorm, knowing that I had a dorm partner I was going to live with for the rest of the school year. I sighed and silently yelled YOLO as I slipped the key in and unlocked the door, and slowly pushed it open.

I entered and shut the door behind me, and I let out a breath I didn't realise I was holding as I looked around.

There were some posters of various video games, anime, and movies adorning the previously blank walls of the dorm. There was a TV room and a kitchen over looking each other, and two doors on the wall beside it.

Suddenly, I heard a voice.

"Who's there?" Someone yelled, and I froze as the door to the right flew open, and a young man stepped out.

He was fairly tall, with chestnut brown hair that was swept into a long fringe, and golden tan skin that almost glowed in the lighting. He had a sort of lanky form, and was dressed in a black t-shirt with equally black skinny jeans, and I noticed he had some little black earrings to finish off the funeral look.

He sighed in relief when he saw me.

"Oh. Gerard, is it?" He said, and I nodded slowly. He smiled and stuck out his hand for me to shake.

"Dan. Dan Howell." He said, and I smiled and took his hand and shook it. I noticed his hand was strangely warm, almost like a you're-sitting-infront-of-a-fire-and-warming-your-hands sort of way.

"As you can probably tell, your room is behind the door next to mine." Dan said, pointing to the left door. I nodded, and he shrugged.

"Okay, before you go in there though, it might be wrong of me to do this, but I kind of have to lay down some ground rules." Dan said, and I raised my eyebrow. "First, I don't fucking care what you do in here as long as you clean up after yourself, and that rule applies to myself too. Second, don't go into my room! It's dangerous and really hot in there." I nodded, and he took a deep breath. "Alright. You can go and put your stuff away and just chill out here if you want while I go do some school work." I nodded, and he smiled to me as he quickly shut the door, sending a blast of hot air towards me.

Eh, I don't really know how I feel about this Dan. Seems like a nice guy, but honestly, kind of giving me mixed feelings.

I sighed and opened the door to my room, to be greeted with a simple bed and nightstand, and a closet to the left.

I threw my stuff onto the floor with ease and closed the door behind me. I jumped onto the bed, feeling my body sink into the mattress. I'll get unpacked later.

This school was very weird and repulsive when I heard of it, but honestly, this place is giving me good vibes, and a small part of me think's that I'll enjoy my time here.

Notes

i know this is shit but it'll slow down soon

this is a mix of eras. Mikey looks like mikey from Three Cheers, gee looks like gee from DD, dan looks like dan from 2009 because his hair was so beautiful, and I'll explain the other characters when they come along.
