It’s just another day at your average American high school for the magically gifted.

Dark magic is bent on destroying the school. A Drow princess is gaining powers faster than she knows what to do with them. Her best friend, a Jasper Elf can’t remember who she is, and her boyfriend turns into a wolf at night and runs with his pack.

By day, they’re trying out for the school play, worrying about who’s going to the fall dance, and oh yeah, are excited about Halloween when the dead can finally talk to the living again. Just your typical teenager in America when magic returns.

Alison, the Drow and her best friend, Izzie, the Jasper Elf are determined to get everything they can out of high school… even if they have to stay one step ahead of the Dark families to make it to graduation.

 /11 '''THE LOUPER TEAM TRYOUTS''' First year the sophomores were allowed to try for the team, and were very nervous. Luke had the support of his group -
-Ethan Kathleen, Izzie, et al. with special T-shirts with Team Luke “The Wolfman” Jackson Written in big bold letters across their shoulders .They would be in the stands rooting for him.  Professor Regency called out for the tryouts, on the Louper Field. “I want to point out that just because you were on the team last year does not mean you automatically have the right to be on the team this year. Now, since we do everything as a team, I want everyone to drop their things and do twelve laps around the field—no magic. You can all thank Wayne and Henry, since they can’t seem to handle the fact that I am short.” Luke took off, and  Wayne and Henry tried to push him off the field. Max used a spell to make the, itch, then reversed it. Eleanor Hudson was conducting the try-outs for the cheer-leading team, and had few takers. Magical teens didn’t seem to be interested.

 Max divided the older players up into two groups, keeping the sophs separate. Luke told them, “It’s not about how strong they are. It’s about how smart you are. I watched a Milltown Kemana game once where the newbie on the team beat the other member with a simple baseline character with no skill level. He was seriously all about showing us that it’s what you do with what you have that matters.” Ethan and Peter brought out bins with equipment, which Max gave out, explaining that it didn’t matter how many years you had been playing, you would be starting out at level one, then progresses from there. Tryouts will be several weeks long.
 “All right, so you will be using magically-enhanced virtual reality headgear on the open field today. This is not a battle. You won’t be challenging anyone, but it will give you the chance to get used to being in a virtual world and learn how to maneuver in it. This won’t be as shocking to those of you who have played before but for the few where this is your first or second time, remember that you will physically be playing the game on this field with everyone else. They will be in the same world as you, only when you look around during a game, you will see them as their character. Be careful maneuvering at first. Don’t get overzealous since you can be a bit wobbly your first time around. Your characters have been picked at random, and won’t have any bearing on who you are if you join the team. “Put on the headset and click the green button on the side. When you’ve had enough, come over and watch the upperclassmen. It’s quite a show during tryouts.” Luke’s  player was an Ice Creature with large shards of ice jutting out all over his body. He watched the frost wafting from him.

 Alison met Shay and Brownstone, took the flight to Miami (Brownstone sleeping all of the way), and took a hired car to the kemana, right outside the city. Settle in, and it is beautiful to Alison – the energies in swirling colors, making everything into magical paintings. She wondered for a moment if it was as beautiful to regular eyes as it was to hers.
-/18  '''AT THE KEMANA RESORT'''   After checking in  and getting settled, the three of them went shopping on the strip. While they were there, they noticed three Dark wizards. “I heard about these guys. They are scouts on paid assignment, to see how humans might be able to take over the kemana one at a time. Whoever they are working for must have ties to the resort business. Big money for a place like this.” They watched as a local official approached the three. He questioned them, and when they were evasive  one of them pulled his wand, and pointed it at the official. At this point Brownstone, shay and Alison stepped in, all backing each other. The three wizards were subdued and put out of the kemana, with a spell on them so that they would never be able to enter a kemana again. Then thet all went for ice cream.

 /19     Halloween coming, costumes were the talk of the day, each trying out their idea on the others, when Leira Berens drove up in her green Mustang. With Yumfuck. Leira had come there to visit her grandmother after hearing about all the dark magic happenings that had gone on near the school in recent days. Mara calls over the speaker system for all to meet in the Cafeteria, to celebrate Troll Day. Yumfuck takes over the mike, and shows off enlarging himself to eight feet, then shrinking to five inches, swimming in a bowl of Doritos, and morphing into different animals. He was enjoyed by all.

 Back in their room, Izzie is upset about Luke’s choice, but decides that she wishes him well, and is still his friend. All go to bed, and Alison decides to review the week, stopping at “now”. She doesn’t want to look into the future until she knows she can handle her abilities.
-/24   '''GYM CLASS'''   Annabelle Grant has taken over the class, and assigns them dodgeball. Magical dodgeball! . (See Miscellaneous [[Games}}) If they held on for five seconds or more, they won. In the past, others had tried to break the school record of two minutes and seventeen seconds. That record had been on the books for about seven years without anyone even coming close. Izzie won, topping the school record by four seconds.

Can’t find him for over an hour, then he appeared. Now about the size of a St. Bernard. They talked about naming him, and Emma told them that he already had a name, his own. “His name is Dorvu, which means ‘one who understands the ways of a dragon.’” They discovered that he liked s sprouts. They played with him all evening, as they felt sorry that he had none of his own kind, his clan, to be with.

 /28   '''THE TALENT SHOW'''  Mara receives a request from a contact in Charlottsville. Some of the elves had sensed more dark magic moving toward or inside of the town. They wanted her to come out and do a sweep. They hoped that whoever it was had left as quickly as they had arrived. This reminded her of Izzie and her finding of the Dark Magic trail, and Mara knew it would only be a matter of time before Izzie found out the truth regarding who she was, and who her parents were. She had hoped it would not come so soon. She went to her closet and got out the three memory balls. The dark spots pulsing on them had grown. The orbs now showed more darkness than light. Mara was worried for Izzie, not knowing what might happen when she remembered.
-She looked outside the window, at the Louper field, and the Teams then practicing there, and remembered her first experiences with the game, their first win. The money had been nice (maintenance), but she loved the comradery it created. She watched Luke high-fiving other players, laughing, and joking with people who had gone out of their way to bully him during freshman year because he was a shifter. The game brought people together and helped to take away some of the stigmas that the kids dealt with on a regular basis in high school.

 Mara goes to the Talent show. Alison is ready, and watched some of the other acts. The first student up was a magic act that included a dog his parents had brought through a portal for the event. He was funny and made the audience laugh, especially when the dog answered any question the student asked. The next couple of acts were comedians, some funny and some not, but the kids in the audience were good sports about it, laughing even when they struggled to find the humor. The next one was a tap dance, who used his wand, but it wasn’t working well, and his act was a flop. Needed a new wand.
 Next up is Alison, a sophomore who will be singing the great jazz tune Round Midnight by Thelonious Monk.” She walked to the center of the stage and stood in front of the microphone, just like during rehearsals, and cleared her throat. She felt a bit more than nervous. Her stomach was doing flip-flops, and her heart beat wildly. She saw all of the energy in the audience, with Izzie and Tanner in the front row. Izzie cast a spell, surrounding her with Faery light as she sang. The crowd was silent as they listened to her bluesy voice sing the song with ease. She closed her eyes and swayed her shoulders, listening to the chiming of the piano keys. She felt right at home up on that stage and stopped worrying about all the people in the audience. This was the song her Mother used to sing, and she remembered. The song ended with just a few extra notes on the piano. The whole room was absolutely silent, and she slowly opened her eyes, wondering if they liked it. Before panic set in, the whole room jumped to their feet and exploded in applause and cheers.  She brought the house down. Ethan ran down the aisle and tossed her a bouquet of flowers that everyone had chipped in on. Alison saw him coming and smelled the blooms just before she saw the flicker of energy flying toward her. She caught them and waved again, taking her leave from the stage.

 Alison boarded, found a window seat, and watched as the train whooshed away. A few minutes later (twelve), across the country, Alison was met by Peter, Ethan, Aya, and Kathleen. Kathleen had taken thirty-two minutes from Paris.
-/2     '''THE CONCSEQUENCES'''   Peter showed them a spell he had learned that sum (how to cause the ground to crack open in front of you), but he hadn’t learned how to turn it off, so some of the School’s wizards and withes cast a security bubble around them, and re-formed the side walk, with the warning to not do that in the town. They were back to school, and could not cast spells when “normies” were around!

 When they arrived, they were told that the Headmistress, Mara Berens, wanted to see them ASAP. Emma, Kathleen, Alison and Aya all went.  Izzie was already there. “I am wondering exactly what happened to your room, because when we went in this morning to deliver linens, it was torn up from top to bottom. I wanted you girls to learn the lesson on your own,” she said sternly. “Normally this could get you suspended, but I gather from the astounded looks on your faces, that you did. Nonetheless, you will be responsible for cleaning up the dining hall for the next week… at every meal. Maybe next time you will know not to bring random creatures up to your rooms.” Mara smiled at them all, behind their backs, as they left.
