AM I WALKING TOWARDS SOMETHING I SHOULD BE RUNNING AWAY FROM?
ADDRESSED: OSCAR MENTIONED: LUCILLE, SIBLINGS NOTES: YOU ASKED FOR IT, I JUST MADE IT HAPPEN! LOL TAGS: Aquila Ellie There were two buses that showed at the Quinton's house. Aletheia was crammed into the one in which all her older brothers and sisters would take. That made sense. She was still not used to sharing their bus.
Aletheia was twelve now. She sat towards the middle of the bus, thinking that was the most strategic seat to take. The back was were all the delinquents sat while the front is where all the 'small and wimpy' kids sat. If Theia wanted to be neither, she would have to 'create' her own placement.
With her head rested against the window, looking out at the house as the bus started to pull away, Theia had almost neglected to notice that her seat was suddenly occupied by another form. She side-glanced first, thinking to catch one of her siblings crushing her against the metal frame of the bus, but it wasn't.
After a quick glance around the bus, Theia concluded that the staff's son had no other choice than to sit next to her. While she didn't mind all that much, Aletheia had hoped to have a quiet bus ride without the reminder of her home seated right next to her.
"First time on the bus?" She asked, seeing the nervous look on the boy's voice. "You look like you're gonna be sick." Or maybe she's what made him nervous. The latter did necessarily bother her. It was better to be feared than walked all over like her mother was.
Aletheia Quinton would never be like her mother. She would never be the doormat wife for some random man to decide when, where, what, and how. No matter how much dosh he had.

Oscar had finished patting the dog and rushed to grab his things as the Nanny called out to him that he'd better hurry or he'd miss the bus. He looked automatically for Olivia to see if she was still upset, but to his surprise he found her with one of the Quinton boys that seemed to have calmed her down. He was surprised but also relieved that his sister wasn't about to have a fit before riding the bus. As he entered the bus, a new and unfamiliar experience it was, he was given another surprise to see his sister sitting with the Quinton boy. He had expected she'd be waiting to sit with him but he shrugged. It was good she was making friends right? Victoria would approve. He looked for an open seat as he moved down the aisle and found one next to the girl from the dining room. She probably wouldn't like him sitting next to her, but he plopped down before he could change his mind as the bus driver called out to hurry and find a seat as they were leaving. Oscar stared straight ahead and waited. He felt the girl's eyes on him as the bus lurched forward and everyone chattered on inside. "First time on the bus?"He quickly looked at her but found more curiosity in her eyes than any kind of animosity. "On a bus like this, yeah."She commented on the fact that he looked like he was going to be sick and Oscar almost smiled. He always felt that way. He let out a breath as he felt himself actually relax. It was the first time he felt calm since they entered the house this morning. He glanced back at the house through a window as they pulled away. "I feel better now that we are leaving here." He turned his head quickly and looked back at her wondering if he just said something weird.Most of their ride was made in silence, at least between the Quinton girl and the Cromwell boy. She didn't seem to mind the silence though he noticed. As they finally pulled up to their school, Oscar leaned forward to look out the window next to the girl as he looked at people coming and going on the school grounds. He didn't make eye contact as his quiet voice came across the space between them. "You're in my grade aren't you? My name is Oscar."

This was it, his last year at school, Damon had walked into the school and looked around yeah being the new kid was something he did not like much, but its not all bad some where in this mess of students he would find his two best friends Milo and Demitrey. Would they be flirting with the schools hottest girls or getting them selves in to trouble like always, I guess he would have to find them and see. His backpack slung over his shoulder in that bad boy way as he walked to his locker, everyone who saw his moved out of his way. Just the way he liked it, he never really liked school or people in that matter all he wanted was to be left alone. The two people he did put up with where Milo and Demitrey only because he they have been through a lot together and he considered them like his brothers. They where there for him when his father had died and made sure he would not end his life in his sorrows. Yeah it had been rough on Damon though few times since his father was gone. Thanks to Milo and Demitrey and of course his sister Catalina he stayed some what san. Speaking of the devils themselves Damon had finally found his best friends posted up at their lockers near his and a smiles escaped his lips as he approached them as they smiled back.
As Milo was talking to his brother about the sports they should do this year since it was their last and final year, he could not stop thinking of Damon and how he must be since he moved back. Yeah he was happy as hell to finally have him back after they moved to god knows where. Would he be in school today or at home. Like always his brother was checking to see if Catalina Damon's sister was around. Ever since he first met the girl that seems to be the only thing on his brothers mind these days. But she was no where in sight yet at least. Then Milo looked up and saw the one and only Damon walking up to them a smile plastered on his face. Its been a while since he has seen a smile on his face in a long time.
Demitrey was watching out for Catalina like he always did since he first meet her. He was attracted to her. He knew she was only fourteen but he could wait for her to become of age to be able to date her. For now they could be friends. He did notice she was no where in sight though and that made his spirit fall he was looking forward to seeing her at school. Looking at his brother he could tell he was thinking about Damon and how he was handling everything since his father had died. Just as Demitrey was about to talk to his brother Damon was walking towards them a smile on his face.
Addressed: No one Notes: Thought it was time to have Milo and Demitrey finally be introduced.

HARDSHIPS PREPARE ORDINARY PEOPLE FOR EXTRAORDINARY DESTINY
Nevaeh rolled the car out into the lot and turned the automobile off with a twist of her mother's key. She turned to her brother, hair messed with the wind, and smiled.
Dangling the keys in front of her nose, she clicked her tongue and threw them into her backpack, sitting behind them. "Told you we could get away with it." Nevaeh grinned, and the car door opened. She stepped out with her backpack flinging across her shoulders.
"So this is it..." She frowned, puffed out her lips in a pout and tilted her head as if that would change her view on the school somehow. "Our old school was much nicer, don't you think?" She glanced back at her brother with her eyes wrinkled in thought.
She started towards the school, passing a few strangers along the way. She took time to study all of their faces. Another pair of twins were sitting out front, looking out at the buses as if they were waiting for someone. She shrug it off. Didn't matter to her.
Her attention drifted from them when her brother stalked passed them. Damon had a way of walking that made Nevaeh roll her eyes. He was such a snob. Must run in the family.

"Told you we could get away with it."
Like those were words he'd never heard before. If he had a nickel for every time Nevaeh had said that well, he'd be rich. It was a nice familiar thing to hear that was strangely comforting in this new town. Nikolai laughed and turned his face to give his sister a smirk. She dangled the keys in front of his face in triumph as he grinned and shoved open the door to get out.
"Are you sure we just can't keep driving?" he gave a sarcastic laugh. He was joking of course, well sort of. He slung his bag over his shoulder as he inspected the buildings and the students milling around. He heard his sister mention their old school and that she thought it was nicer. Nikolai wrinkled his nose like he smelled something bad as he looked up at the old clock tower at the front of the school. "Yeah, I guess so."
"Guess we'll have to find a new group to hang out with..." As he glanced around he saw their brother Damon walk by. The rest of their family sure didn't count. He glanced at Nevaeh and saw the look on her face as she watched Damon. "Damon has friends...who knew?" his voice was full of sarcasm and teasing. It was actually quite surprising to see him smiling at his friends. They never saw him crack a smile at home, that's for sure.

HARDSHIPS PREPARE ORDINARY PEOPLE FOR EXTRAORDINARY DESTINY
Nevaeh's shoulder brushed against her brothers as their voices leaned in towards one another. Both their attentions had been directed towards their older brother. This was his first semester in his senior class. Next time Nevaeh and Nikolai walked through these door for the first time, Damon would be somewhere (hopefully) far away.
"Funny." Nevaeh narrowed her gaze towards the dark-haired brother socialising at the end of a bench. "How did he acquire friends already?" Nevaeh questioned, though the thought was more for herself, it was said out loud.
A new and cruel idea had her forced forward. The petite female twin crossed in front of her brother and swaggered over to where Damon and his 'new' friends were chatting.
One swift tap on his shoulder, and Nevaeh extended her brow upwards to get a wider look at her much taller brother. "Paid friends don't really count, you know?" Nevaeh twitched her lip upward to a quick smirk and then let her head fall to one side.
She loved to taunt her siblings. She loved to taunt Damon the most.

Damon stiffened when his sister Nevaha touched his shoulder. ("Paid friends dont count you know.") She had said. Damon gave her a dark glare and said "their not PAID Navaha, this is Milo and Demitery Horseman. They live in the town have been for years before father died i met them and became friends with them. Get your own life and friends abd leave me and mine alone." He spat at her as he turned to continue to talk to his friends.

AM I WALKING TOWARDS SOMETHING I SHOULD BE RUNNING AWAY FROM?
ADDRESSED: OSCAR MENTIONED: LUCILLE, SIBLINGS NOTES: SORRY FOR THE LONG WAIT... TAGS: Aquila Theia didn't usually agree with anyone, and when she did she would often pretend as if she did not just to avoid seeming 'easy' or 'agreeable'. Most of her wanted to be known as the girl that always had something to say. It wasn't boring. So when the newly introduced 'Oscar' mumbled something about the house, Theia's first gut reaction was to defend it and it's 'aura'; but she didn't, because she couldn't. Not even with a lie.
Without a reaction from Theia, the remainder of the bus ride was spent in awkward silence. She thought about moving seats, but she was trapped where she was. Fiddling with her fingers, Theia tried to glance over at him or even the window, just keeping her head down and waiting for the pain to end.
She only looked up when the bus stopped. Standing almost immediately, Theia readied herself for the escape, when the English boy decided that their time together was not yet over. He, then, formally introduced himself and offered a question, which Theia did respond to: "I think so."
She wasn't honestly sure. He looked about her age. He acted about her age. Still, she forgot how old she was sometimes. It was hard for her to even tell what 'grade' she was supposed to be in. "I'm Aletheia." She offered as a formality. "But only my mother calls me that or my sister when she's upset with me. Call me Theia." She finished with an awkward smile that laid mostly flat then actually extending upwards.
"Have you started here, yet?" She asked, suddenly turning the tables on herself and not allowing the conversation to cease.
The bus rolled away and it was just them walking on the sidewalk towards the school. It was strange to think that if her family stayed here, she would be attending this exact same school for the next six years.

At first he thought she wasn't going to respond but when she finally did Oscar was surprised at her polite and proper introduction. He was sure all she wanted was for him to leave her alone but she was smiling and continuing their conversation. Her name was Altheia but she told him to call her Theia. He nodded his understanding as he glancing behind them to look for his sister. She was with that Quinton boy and that little group so he wasn't too worried about her at the moment, but he was sure Victoria would be angry if she knew he wasn't looking out for her. "No, my sister and I are just starting today too. We haven't been here very long." He answered her question and the implication was clear, they didn't know anyone in the town yet. The first people he met here were the servants of the Ramsey House.He snuck a glance at Theia then. He had picked up a vibe from her that she was a loner type, just like he was. "Are you nervous about being here, starting a new school?" He was curious. He was a curious little boy, but he hadn't taken an interest in other people for quite awhile. His first impressions of the Quintons in general were they were a spoiled bunch, loud and obnoxious, but maybe he was being a snob too. This girl, Theia, seemed different to him.As they walked toward their school, the crowds grew and there were all ages of kids, some from the junior high and some from the high school. The crowds made Oscar uncomfortable. It was daunting starting a new school where the only person you knew was your little sister. He looked at Theia again. He wasn't sure how she was feeling at the moment, her face was a poker face. "At lunchtime, maybe we can sit together...if you want to." He looked down at the ground suddenly feeling embarrassed. Did he sound desperate or something? "I usually sit alone or with Olivia." Now he sounded pathetic. Olivia had always been better at making friends than he was. "Anyway..." He shrugged and smiled apologetically like she must be dying to get away already. "I'll see you around?"Addressed: Theia Mentioned: Victoria, Olivia, Quintons Tags: Piper Ellie Notes: Short but sweet just like Oscar XD

Nikolai snickered as Nevaeh teased Damon about having to buy friends. Sometimes Nevaeh could be so mean, and he always got a good chuckle out of it. Damon made some kind of retort and went back to his friends, ignoring both of them.
He glanced across the courtyard as the school bus rolled up and let off more students. He was so glad they took the car and didn't have to ride the bus with all of them. Just then he spotted Theia exit the bus with a companion and the two of them were walking toward the school together. He quickly elbowed Nevaeh and nodded at the duo. "Speaking of strange friendships...what the hell is that?!" He snorted a laugh. "Theia is hanging out with that weird kid from the house this morning. Aren't they two peas in a pod?" He chuckled and looked back at Nevaeh. He really didn't care who his siblings hung out with as long as it wasn't him."I don't know about you but I want to know where the cool kids go when they skip class?" He grinned at his twin. Their mischievous smiles were twins too.Addressed: Nevaeh Mentioned: Theia, Oscar, Damon Tags: Ellie Piper @aaka2013 Notes: Sorry this is short but I wanted to respond for Nikolai! word count tags whatever

It was there. The building was standing overhead, glaring down at them, and taunting them.
Nevaeh followed her brother's taunt with a brief glance in the direction of their younger sister, who was escorting the Englishwoman's son to the entrance of the school. She scoffed along with her brother, but added no other clever comment.
She let it die with him.
Nikolai had in turn switched topics almost immediately after her scoff. Both were hesitant to enter the building even as the bell rang and everyone walked around them and towards class. Nevaeh and her brother, however, had another idea on mind.
"Today is our first day in a new town..." Nevaeh pointed out with mischief behind every word. She glanced towards her brother with a smirk. "Let's say we went to school, but check out the town instead. There's gotta be something worth talking about here."
She lifted her shoulders upward and flipped her hair to the back as she turned on heel in one swift and easy motion. Her gaze narrowed upward at her brother, who was falling behind. It was a curse with them, their mother would insist; they could never say no to each other, and that's where the trouble began.

There was nothing exciting or remotely interesting about their new high school to Nikolai. Yes it was a new school for them all, but wasn't it just the same as any other really? An entire day of boredom loomed ahead, but luckily for him Nevaeh gave voice to the thoughts forming in his head. He could always count on her for that.
"A new town...." he responded as he let their collective minds work together in the best possible way. He gave his twin the side eye with a mischievous smile as he added. "Probably nothing new to learn in a classroom, we'll probably be repeating some of the same lessons even." Nikolai was actually a pretty smart kid when it came to academics, that's if he actually put in any effort. He grew bored easily after learning a new lesson and thus would end up causing trouble because he needed a distraction.
As was typical of them they encouraged each other's ideas until a plan was formed. "We would probably learn more checking out the town than we would at school." His eyes slid over to the car they had stolen to drive to school in just as Nevaeh started making her way towards it. He fell into step behind her. He didn't even need to think about it. There was never any consequence more urgent than the thrill of doing whatever they wanted...and getting away with it. The car was their ticket to anywhere. Anywhere else that was more interesting than this.
He picked up the pace as they hurried together to make their getaway. His grin was identical to the returning grin of his twin.
"Nobody ever learned anything on the first day of school."

AM I WALKING TOWARDS SOMETHING I SHOULD BE RUNNING AWAY FROM?
ADDRESSED: OSCAR, NIKOLAI, NEVAEH MENTIONED: DAMON, LUCO NOTES: I HAVE NONE TAGS: Aquila Ellie @aaka2013 @derek He seemed nervous. Aletheia tried her best not to be herself. Her mother always told her that she scared people. But what did she care? She'd rather be feared than loved, sad as it was. Theia shrugged her shoulders. "I don't know..." She responded uncharacteristically shy. "School doesn't really make me nervous."
Aletheia considered herself the smartest of her siblings. She knew that she was younger than half of them, but she had a better sense than they did. She was clever, more clever than the twins, that was for sure, and far more intelligent than Damon. Luco might be the only one that could outsmart her.
"I usually sit alone or with Olivia."
She felt sorry for the funny kid. He was a year younger than her, but she was still taller, which made him a kid to her. "Maybe I'll find you." Theia forced a smile. She didn't smile very often. "I'll catch you later, kid." She waved as he walked away.
When she was alone again, Theia sighed and looked around at the grounds. She noticed immediately that the twins were stalking around the outskirts, exchanging dangerous schemes together while the bell rang and everyone started for the doors.
Theia kicked her heels in the other direction, and walked through the people to find the twins, getting ready to run. "What are you two doing?" Theia asked, interested in the trouble they were about to create.
