Aradia walked down the hallway, slowly. She wasn't sure where she was. She might be... no. It didn't exist. It was just a place her parents had told her about as a bedtime story, to get her to sleep. Sure, they had perfectly described the hallway she was now walking on, but... That's it. This must be a dream. Just a weird, weird dream. No way could she actually be in Magic School.
n/a: I know this is really short, but please review what I have so far. Thanks!

n/a: sorta
Besides, Magic School was for people with powers. Witches, her parents had called them. And she certainly wasn't a-a witch. She had never displayed any powers. Suddenly, she didn't feel so sure about this. She turned around, but there was only a brick wall behind her. Desperate to get out, she tried to push on the wall.
Then she began to feel dizzy, and a scene flashed through her mind. It was her, 10 years ago at the age of 5. She was walking this same hall, but this time an elderly man was walking with her, dressed in black flowing robes.
As quickly as it had come to her, the vision passed, and Aradia opened her eyes, frightened. What was that? Some type of freaky deja vous?

Yeah, that had to be it. The feeling she had just had... deja vous. Either that or she was finally nuts. Just then she looked up, and saw the man from her vision, still in black flowing robes, just watching her.
Great, she thought. 15 was such a young age to be insane. Couldn't this man wait a few more decades? Why did she have to go crazy now?
The man finally spoke up. You're not insane. I've been expecting you for some time.

n/a: sorry i keep writing this in little parts, but i just write as i come up with it, not really planning
Aradia looked up at him, startled. Had he just read her mind? No, that was impossible.
Nothing is impossible.
She backed as close to the wall as possible. This guy was really freaking her out. Pretty soon, this nut might start talking about
Magic.

Did he just say
Magic?
Stop doing that! What are you, some freakin mind reader or something?
Or something. He steps closer.
A week passes.
Aradia is in a dorm room, lying on her bed. There is a knock on her door. Come in! Please be anyone but..The door opens. Gideon! She frowns slightly, but by now she's learned to control her thoughts around him. Breakfast already? For the past week, Gideon had been the only face she had seen in this miserable little place. Stuck in her room until she was deemed 'fit' to go out amongst the other students, Gideon had brought her meals, and books to study her courses from. She had heard noises from the other side of her door, and she knew from what Gideon had told her that she was indeed in Magic School, was a witch, and most certainly wasn't alone. She fixed him with her usual stare, hoping he would let her at least walk the halls for once.
Breakfast. But there's more. He sets the tray down at her desk. I've watched you carefully, and you're adjusting very well to life here at Magic School. But the only way for you to fully adjust is if you meet some students. Spend the day with them, away from worries about school.
Why are you so worried about me?
You're a very special, very powerful girl, Aradia. He looks at her with a very paternal feeling. Now, let me introduce you to your new tour guide for a while.
A very hot guy, about 17, shimmers into the room. He smiles at Aradia, then looks to Gideon. You wanted to see me, sir?

Yes. This is Aradia, I'd like you to give her a tour of the school, then make sure she finds her way around. Tomorrow will be her first day of school. I've arranged it so she's in most of your classes.
He smiles. Cool. It's nice to meet you Aradia. He shakes Aradia's hand. My name's Jake.
Aradia begins to blush, as she takes his hand. Omg, he's so hot! I don't think I've ever seen anything that fine. She smiles. It's nice to meet you too. Finally pulling her eyes away from Jake, she looks to Gideon. Are you serious? I'm actually gonna get out of here?
Yes. He smiles paternally at her. I'm being called, I'll leave you two alone. He orbs out, leaving them alone in Aradia's room.

Aradia jumps back in fright as Gideon orbs away. This was the first time she had actually seen magic, besides his thought reading thing.
Jake looks at her in surprise. Are you okay?
Aradia looks at him in alarm. What was that? Where'd he go?
Jake tries not to smile. He orbed. Is this your first time with magic?
Is it that obvious?
He smiles, and they sit on her bed. No. Trust me, it gets easier. I was like that my first time. He studies her carefully. So, I guess this means you have powers?
I guess, I don't know what though. Gideon seems to think they're something special though. So, do you have powers?
Jake grins mischieviously, and gets off the bed, taking her hand. Yep. You wanna see them?
n/a: O:-) Please review!
