How long had it been?  Much too long.  Not only did was there a detour, but a wrong turn as well.  How one could make a mistake from Luxembourg was beyond belief. The puppeteer pondered the subject on the ride to the French border. Seeing as it was a small country, the mistake was easily fixable. . . Compared to a wrong turn in most other countries at the least.  Luckily, she wasn't as late as she could have been, by only missing the first day.  Now finally in the vicinity of the school and no longer using transport from an aquaintance, her puppets were a great help in carrying her belongings towards the dormitory room where she would be staying. . .  Well, she'd make sure she got it all in the dorm after she figured out where her dorm was.

Katherine couldn't help but gawk at the sights of the town outside the academy.  She wasn't quite at school yet, but she sure as hell was going to get everything together today so she could start classes as soon as possible.  While she was a greatly competitive girl, she was also fairly studious.  Overall, anything to make her stronger was her goal.  As she walked through the town her small army of dolls followed behind.  

Then, for comedic effect for those around, she spoke, [color=green]"Alright, Doll Brigade, assume marching stance!"[/color]  A few seconds after the utterance of the sentence, the dolls started to march together in synchronized step.  [color=green]"I don't know but I've been told!"[/color]  She repeated the lines of some military cadence she heard while watching some American show about the US Army, but of course added her own lines to it.  There was a silence where the soldiers would normally repeat back, but the dolls don't talk of course. [color=green]"The Doll Brigade will reach its goal![/color]  Katherine added after the dolls should have said something.  She continued with a few added verses as the dolls marched through town with a smiling puppeteer leading them towards the school. . .

Then. finally, the small troop reached the school.  It was a great day to live. . . For Katherine at least.  Now she just needed to find her way around to the headmasters office.  Firstly to apologize for her tardiness and secondly to get her dorm assignment.  She needed to drop her belongings off before she considered going to class.  [color=green]"Now then. Which way am I suppose to go?"[/color] Katherine wondered as she slowly moved away from the path to the town.
