	[color=plum]"[sub]-si. Elysia.[/sub] LYSI, Wake Up!."[/color] The young girl groggily sat up from the backseat as she was, almost, gently shaken awake. She slowly rubbed the drowsiness from her eyes looking at the two sitting in the front seat who had been attempting to wake her for the last minute. In the driver's seat was Adelinde while her father Ryon sat in the passenger seat. "You were out like a log, Blueberry. Dreaming about what Wellington would be like?" Ely took a momentary glance outside the car. People. More people than she had expected. The girl looked towards her father giving a short nod. She had indeed been dreaming about what Wellington may have been like, but the not so great sleeping position, as well as her nerves, lead to the dream being a little on the bad side.

	First, she dreamed that she missed Move-in week. Showing up late, not being allowed in her room, and being unable to unpack her things as she was stuck in the main room. She was at her first day of class, and every other student the school had was there. They were forced to take turns introducing themselves. She was nervous beyond belief, and her family caught on to this fact. [color=plum]"Hey, are you sure you want to do this?"[/color]

	"Adelinde can turn the car right back around and I can try my hand at homeschooling you." Elysia shook her head no. She pulled out a piece of paper she had written on earlier because she knew that they'd try to talk her out of doing this. It reads, [color=lightseagreen]*I decided to do this. So, I can. Don't worry. Drive safe. I love you.*[/color] She quickly typed on her smartphone, the only remotely expensive thing the family owns. Even compared to the vehicle they were in now which on the outside didn't look like it could drive for an hour let alone nineteen. The phone piped out the message she put through it, [color=lightseagreen]"Tell Eliza I don't blame her for not being able to come. Work is important. Get rest before you leave for Iowa."[/color]

	The two in the front gave each other a look before both exited the car. Adeline went to the back to get Elysia's luggage while their father opened the back door for Elysia, giving her a long hug once she got out. "You always worryin' about us too much. You stay safe, and if you start to panic just remember what Dr. Stiles said to do and you'll be fine. I have faith in you." The teenager hugged her father tight scared to let go knowing it'd be a long time before she'd see them face-to-face again. After they finished hugging, Adelinde gave Elysia a hug as well. Despite the rocky start the sisters had, they had grown very close in the previous few years. They hugged for almost as long as Elysia and Ryon had. Letting go, Elysia rubbed the starting of tears away. Elysia grabbed her backpack from the car throwing it on her back and then took her suitcase from Adelinde.

	She walked over to where the other newcomers were waiting. She turned to look at her sister and father as they were about to drive off and signed, [color=lightseagreen]Bye. I love you.[/color] Then waved as they drove off. She looked at the others around her. There weren't all that many people here. The school was really small in number so not many new students usually came but they were all still new faces. There wasn't too much talking except for one girl who seemed to be talking to herself but also at them and the world itself all at the same time. There was also a boy sitting on the sidewalk that didn't seem all that approachable. Looking at everyone Elysia had settled on who to approach but then the coach arrived. Out of the driver seat emerged a man who looked like the ultimate gentleman butler. The impeccable suit, pristine visage, and excellent posture. Had she somehow found herself at an old-fashioned British boarding school? Despite his beanstalk physique, the man easily gathered everyone's belongings into the coach along with them themselves. He had a job and he was good at it. Was everything about this school so prim and proper?

	Elysia quickly sat herself at a window so that she could watch the scenery as they rode up the mountain. Not long after she sat, the girl who could talk to anything sat right beside her. It felt like she had enough enthusiasm to match everyone else and then some. The girl talked so fast that Elysia couldn't find the time to get any type of communication across. She even fumbled with pulling out the note cards she'd made which had her name and other general introduction pleasantries written on them. The view outside the window drew her attention from the attempt to introduce herself. Sure, she'd seen a lot of forests but she had never been up a mountain. The sensation of her ears popping was strange but the sights more than made up for it. The highlight of the drive had to be the tunnel though.

	The moment they entered the tunnel Elysia became glued to the window. She couldn't take her eyes off of it. It was so pretty. The fact that a student had made it caused it to be even better. When they finally exited the tunnel, the teen had a moment of sadness which soon became replaced with the desire to draw. She grabbed a sketchpad from her backpack and pulled a pencil from her pocket. She stared at the pad for a few minutes and was about to begin drawing when her attention was drawn to look out the window once again seeing that the coach had stopped. It was beautiful. Everything looked so amazing. So magical. She wanted to draw all of it but she noticed the driver was informing her that it was time to disembark.

	She got up carrying the sketch pad under her arm putting her pencil back in its pocket. She looked around for the girl who she had sat beside to introduce herself but she didn't see her anywhere. Other than those who had been at the pick-up area there were a few more people to the crowd. Some had started talking with others but Elysia looked around unsure of what to do. She knew she was supposed to wait for her dorm leader to come to her but what should she do until then? Elysia looked at the people around her and determined she would introduce herself before she missed her chance. Setting her sights on someone, Ely walked with her head slightly down straight for that person, holding out to them one of her little pre-prepared introductory cards.[/color]
