I let out a loud howl that bellows through our partially abandoned house. Pain is GRIPPING me head to toe and choking me. It feels as if I am bathing in the black plague. And now I know what this feeling is. It's anxiety. I've been punched, kicked, and beaten beyond all extremities, but my leaving this house with big brother hurts the most. I shake and grab my stuffed pig and allow all of my fears to come out through tears.
No academy could feel as good as home does. And it doesn't sound like something meant for me because all of the students there are focused and study all night. It even looks expensive... but I have my payments from my father thanks to a certain scholarship. I set my pig down.There has to be something I can do! I stand up and move to the door. What will become of me and Jaxon when we're so close? Well, if anyone gives him shit, they're getting a mouth full of fist! I walk out of the room with pride showing, but anxiety cloaking it.

"H-hi dad!" I smile at my dad for his usual sloppiness. He looks at me, green eyes twinkling.

"So I was wondering..." I pull off my 'daddy-I-don't-want' look, "Do I have to go to that college?"

"Yes. And that look doesn't work on me. You need to brush your hair," My father mutters and makes some coffee.

"Okay..." I pout and turn my heel. What was I thinking asking him? He won't do anything! I glower at the mirror as I brush my hair. My eyes are green. That makes me different from big brother. And my hair is brown-red. That makes me different from brother. I hate how we don't even look alike. I finish brushing my hair and walk to the kitchen, where my brother's friend, Dakota, is driving. Dakota holds the door open for me silently. As I walk out of the house, I sigh at Jaxon' s pre-packed car. I love him, but he really needs to work on being reasonable. Dakota, once again, opens up the  door for me and I step in to the indigo minivan. I attempt to keep CALM on our ride down. As we cross through Augusta Taurinorum, I realise what is happening. I've grown up and left my father. All the air leaves my body. I find my head in my hands and sobbing.

As we've arrived in my new habitat, I frown. I then turn to my big brother. To be enrolled we must seperate.

"Katie, good-bye for now."He acts petulant to my sad smile, a pinkness crawling on his pale face.

"Good-bye, Jaxon," I turn and disdainfully gather my stuff from the car and travel to a table where more students that I can or care to count are waiting. As I stand in line, a girl with golden hair and a skirt far too short escorts me to another room.

"First you get your medical needs fulfilled, and then you get sent to your dorm!" She smiled so bright I could seriously go blind. She grabs my hand and pulls me into the doctor's office. Don't touch me, lady.
The doctor smiles at me and the other girl lets me go. He doesn't look too old, maybe in his forties. He closes the door.

"Well Katherine, please have a seat. We're going to talk about this academy. But first..." He grabs a document and hands it to me.

"A NDA?" I gape. What the hell is this? I sigh and sign it and the good doctor smiles at me.

"Now, sit down," he pulls the document away from me and I lay on the chaise lounge.

"Grenwald academy is not your typical academy. We try to explore the secret senses of the human mind and psychology. If you stay here, of which you agreed to, you must watch certain explicit material. I understand how this all works from the exploit of the mind..." He continues on about feeding whilst I space out. They're gonna do experiments on me? Like a lab rat? What have I done...

"And finally I would like to lead you to your dormitory," he smiles again. A chilling, sphinx-like smile. I kindly accept and he leads me to the other side of the school and up a flight of stairs. We turn the corner and there are two women having a fight. I avert my eyes as if I were afraid, which was true.

"GIRLS!" The doctor barked. Both girls look in our direction. One girl is particularly short and skinny with black hair and bewildered hazel eyes. The other girl has white hair-woah- and seafoam eyes. Both girls remain staring.

"This is your new roommate. Be gentle with her;she's still young." And the doctor leaves. I stand, staring at the two girls.

"I can't do this," The white-haired girl murmured. I quietly step towards her, "Lynn, what do we do?" The white-haired girl whispered.

"Does she know what she got herself into?" The black haired girl, or Lynn, as I assume, makes me smile with memories of watching Sherlock. She has a voice that is light but laced with a British accent.

"You should run."
HOLY CRAP THIS CHAPTER IS HUUUUUUUUGE XD

I felt like I should make an upd8 every other weekend. It feels lovely.

Sherlock doesn't belong to me, for reference.
