Brangwynn Boarding Academy For Gifted Students

Welcome To Brangwynn Boarding Academy For Gifted Students!

Welcome to Brangwynn Academy, a boarding high school where the students are definitely not what they seem. Those who register at this special high school are considered “gifted”, meaning that they have special abilities that often cause chaos at any normal academy. At Brangwynn, only the best personnel are chosen to teach the students the skills they will need as they progress in life. Brangwynn Academy has been around for many years, and we advice you to take a peek in our yearbooks. We hope that your yearly stay at this boarding academy will be a most pleasant one, and that the memories you create will remain dear to your heart for years to come.

Dawn took a deep breath. She opened her eyes and stared up at the ceiling. The sun shone through her window and birds sang glad tunes to greet the morning. She rolled over on her stomach and looked out her window behind her bed. Her dorm was on the third floor with the rest of the dorms. The looked out above the tree tops. Her dorm mate was still asleep. Dawn glanced at her clock and decided she had a little time to sleep in. Dawn got out of bed and made her bed. She picked out the clothes she was going to wear-an orange tank top and flare jeans. She walked into the bathroom and took a warm, refreshing shower. She dried herself off and got dressed. She walked back out and nudged her sleeping partner. Meadow opened one eye and closed it again. She yawned and stretched out before getting up and copying Dawn. Dawn finished up getting ready for the school day to begin. It was a Monday.
When Dawn and Meadow were both through, they left their dorm and walked down to the cafeteria. Dawn and Meadow went through the breakfast line and walked out of habit to the table that they had gotten used to sitting at. They sat down with their friends.
"Hey guys." Meadow and Dawn said together. The two had gotten used to it. They said the same things all the time. The rest of their friends had too. Their friends greeted them. Some of them wouldn't get here till later, though. Dawn looked around, as did Meadow. They were both thinking the same thing. Where is Adaline?
As if Trevor could read minds, which he could, he answered, "She is usually here by now, isn't she?" he said. He, too, looked around the table. "hmm, maybe she'll show up." he added. He took a spoonful of cereal and scooped it into his mouth. Dawn shrugged and took a bite of her buttered bagel. Meadow cut up her waffles and speared a piece to put in her mouth.

Dawn and Meadow turned heads as Adaline rushed to the table and quickly begin wolfing it down. "Your fine." Dawn said. "The cafeteria opened ten minutes ago and we've still got forty minutes till it closes and after that, we've got a few minutes till class starts." Dawn informed politely before taking a bite of her half-way-eaten bagel. Meadow drank the last of her milk from her finished cereal bowl and got up to place her bowl and utensils in the proper place to be washed and used again. She came back to the table with a grin spread across her face.
"Hey guys, did you know that they predict snow this weekend?" she asked. Meadow was a snow type person. She loved the snow and everything about it, including the cold. And if you think about it, it wouldn't make much sense for Meadow to have ice power and her hate the cold. She hate her power as well.
Dawn shivered. She hated the cold. She was fine with snow, she just didn't like the condition it had to be to snow. She hated the fact that she had to wear thick sweaters with undershirts and then a big heavy jacket to go over it and your fingers and toes still end up cold. She was glad she at least had the wind on her side.
Meadow laughed at Dawn. "Well, some of us will like it more than others." Meadow added with a smile.
some kids at the table was with Dawn, but most of them pushed that away from their thoughts and focused on the chance of the first snow of the year.
"How deep?" Dawn asked.
Meadow was a little stumped there. "I forgot." She said. "I think it was something like a foot in a half, maybe two."
Dawn groaned at the thought of the cold and hugged her self in her sweater.

"Huh? What?" Aravis looked at her alarm clock realizing the time. "OH CRAP!!!" she shouted, "It's friggin 9:00!!!" She grabbed her favorite outfit, quickly brushed her long, tangled hair, and grabbed her books. She was late again. "I'm so sorry mistress!!" she apologized hastily, "M-My alarm clock wouldn't go off a-and I-I woke up late" She cursed herself for studdering again. Meadow looked at her worried and at the same time a little like she was going to lose it from laughter. Aravis quickly turned her head turning red, and then realized to new guy was looking at her smiling. She couldn't tell if it was from laughter or some other reason she was hoping for. Then while she was writing in her journal a note dropped on her desk. She opened and turned even more red. She looked at the new guy then at the note about 20 times. It said something she never thought she would see or hear:
Would you go out with me?
Then the bell rang and she ran to tell the others.

There are two things wrong in that post. The first one, you used power-playing, which I said was off limits in the rules. (Power playing is controlling someone else's character without permission.) You had no right to do that.

Next, you pushed it. First, you made it nine-o-clock when the rest of us were on time and in the lunchroom. I didn't think too much about that part, but when you ended class, that was bad. How did you know I wasn't going to say what she taught or if there was homework?

So, I'm asking you to please go back and fix your post.]]

Dawn waited for Adaline to come back from putting her bowl away. Meadow stood up. "I told Mrs. Murphy that I'd help her out with a few things before class starts" Meadow said. "I'll see you guys later." With that, she got up and walked out of the cafeteria. Dawn sat there with the rest of the group. “So…” Dawn failed at starting up a conversation. “We still have five minutes, but we can start heading over to class.” Dawn suggested. “Or if you guys have another idea, because I have absolutely none.” Some of the people at the table shrugged, not really caring. Some didn’t reply, Adaline being one of them. Dawn waited for the others to reply.
