Temper: NIGHT

chapter six: the divison

The sky was a black and covered with stars like the last time Temperance had been there, and the three moons were still as large and as bluish. To their surprise, once they reached the dorm grounds, their fangs sprouted. “Yeah I forgot to tell you guys that..” Stan said apologetically, “these grounds have a certain magic that reveals species. So yeah, that’s normal..” Temperance gazed at Stan’s pearly white fangs as he spoke; she could feel hers in place with her tongue. “Awesome” she said and Pamela and Zach nodded in agreement. SO twenty-four seven we’re vampires, Temperance thought, just like Harper. “here we are!” Stan exclaimed, finally halting in front of a small, dreary looking cottage with a small sign with “Group Eleven” written in white paint., “The group across from you is group four. Ayden, Viktor, and Emmett. Make friends.” And with that Stan turned and walked away. The three of them watched them go, then Pamela opened the door to the cottage. They were surprised to find a well lit, modern, and clean room. It was spacious, had three full sized beds with white sheets and red draping. The floor was covered by a white carpet, three computers were lined up on once side, and there were three large dressers on the other side. “bloody hell! INTERNET!” Pamela laughed rushing towards the computers, Zach just walked silently toward the bed farthest from the other two and laid down on it. Temperance took it all in, then claimed the bed by the window, all their luggage already there in front of their corresponding dressers; but the unpacking can wait. “Oh cool! They’ve got this chat for all the dorms to connect!” Pamela exclaimed, “Look! I’m talking to Chad from group 3! He looks hott in his picture!” she added laughing. Pictures! Temperance panicked, she came out horrible in pictures, she walked toward Pamela and logged onto her chat room account. Oh God, they had used her school picture! Her hair was a bit longer than it was now, and she looked tired and bored, she looked horrible. Groaning she slumped in her seat, but she quickly sat up when she received a message. She eyed Pamela who was avidly chatting, and then turned to observe her message: It was Shawn. Smiling at his picture, which was one she had taken, she answered his typed hello:
Temperance Jay (11): Heeey.

Temperance Jay (11): Yep. This chat is pretty awesome. Unexpected. : )
Shawn Jay (Superior 2): Yeah well it was installed this year. A new feature so make the best of it, : P

Temperance sighed and logged out. She really didn’t feel like talking to anyone else. What Ayden had told her about Harper’s dark side had left her feeling sick. She turned to find Pamela still chatting and Zach absorbed by his ipod, so she turned back to the computer and opened up Ayden’s profile:

Ayden Alex Marshall
9/28/91
born: Canada
address: 417 Rose Ave., Mason Lane
………

The guy in the picture was incredibly handsome with straight, auburn hair and sparkling silver eyes; he was smiling and showed his perfect radiant, white set of teeth. No fangs, Temperance thought, so the picture was taken in the morning or in the afternoon. Temperance closed the page and stood up, stretched, and walked over to her bed. She laid down and closed her eyes, feeling her fangs with her tongue. IT felt strange having them out at this time, though the dark, starry skies of the division made her forget the notion of the actual time. It was an eternal night here. “Ha ha!” Pamela cried finally standing up and leaving the computer, “I’ve chatted with all of group 1, 3, 5, 8, 10, and 9! 18 people! What about you?” she added staring at Temperance, “My brother. and a guy, Ayden, from group 4..” Temperance said offhandedly, “Only 2 people. You’re a piss off!” Pamela said playfully and Temperance just laughed and shrugged. Pamela walked over and sat on the edge of her bed, “Let’s go. David from group one told me that we’re going to have a welcome feast/speech or something of that sort!” Zach snorted when he head this and laid back down on his bed, “Really? Well cool..let’s go” Temperance said, “Coming Zach?” she added. Zach jumped when he heard his name, “Uh sure..” he said unplugging the ipod’s earphones from his ears, pocketing it, and jumping off his bed. As Temperance and Pamela walked out the door, Zach followed them. Other people were making their way up a hill toward a large, sinister-looking mansion that just had to be the division. “I wonder what Canada’s division looks like..” Temperance whispered to herself, Pamela heard, and stared at her surprised, “It’s one of the suckiest in the world.” She said, “most coming of age from there move to other sectors to be able to ingress in other divisions..” “oh” was the only thing Temperance said as she shrugged and pushed open the mansion’s door. Zach, Temperance, and Pamela were awed at the luxurious room. It was an incredibly large room, with eleven long tables stacked with food, and a large stage on the other side of the room; all decorated with extreme detail. Temperance spotted her brother waving from on top of the stage, she waved back and headed toward the table marked “11” in which her father, and apparently Zach’s and Pamela’s parents too, were sitting. AS she approached, followed by Pamela and Zach, she couldn’t help but say to herself: The party has begun.
