Ms. Janice Taylor sat on the rocking chair with her cat Alfred on her lap. She looked over to the fireplace. The house was too empty; she needed help around the house too. 8 empty bedrooms, a pool, hot tub and basement that nobody ever bothered going in to… She always did want grandchildren, maybe this was a chance to invite some young people to her house, liven things a bit. The mansion could use some craziness; she smiled and pulled out a stack of paper.
Janice Taylor was a student for an all-girls academy up until five years ago. She was the most popular teacher between her students and although she treated them all equally in class, she did have a few favorites. Eight to be exact, she had met them all and their offspring at the reunion last year, they all seemed like nice children.
~*~*~*~*~*~
"Mooooommmm~ I'm home!" you call as you slam the door shut behind you. You slip out of your shoes and head over to the kitchen where you smell something cooking, Clam Chowder Soup. On the kitchen counter is an elegant beige envelope with gold symbols on it and last but not least with your name in calligraphy smack down the middle of the sheet.. Wow, you never knew anyone could make your name look so good on a sheet of paper. "Mom, what's this?" you ask as you pick up the envelope.
"Oh that, you remember Ms. Taylor, right? My teacher?" your mom replies as she scuttled around the kitchen looking for the ladle.
"Yeah... It's over there mum," you say pointing at the bowl in which the ladle sat in. "But yeah I remember," you reply as you hold the envelope delicately in your hands. She was a nice-looking old lady then one that gave you an impression of a rich, nice grandmother.
"It's from her, I believe it said that she would like to invite you over for the summer..." she mutters as she stirs the thick soup then took a taste. "Mmm... Too much cream!" she complains. You roll your eyes then pull out the message within the envelope.
Dear (Your char's name here),
I would like to invite you to my mansion for a 2 months period over the summer.
I have invited 7 other teenagers to keep you company. Please do come, the house has a pool, a bar, and a private beach, tennis court and not to mention is close to the city. The house has been far too quiet for too long and I would love it if some of your children had come to liven things up a little around here.
J. Taylor

-Melodie Isabella May(a.k.a. Mel, Melo)-
-17-
-Female-
-Melodie is the wild child in the family she has an older brother and sister who is quite opposite of her. Mel is also among one of the most popular girls at her school, she has the highest grades and not to mention is one of the most athletic and involved student. She can't sit doing nothing for more than ten minutes, which explains her need to occupy herself every for second of her life, and the number of activities she participates in.-
-Melodie's sister Elizabeth is a twenty-five year-old jewelry designer who just got engaged while her brother Daniel is at university studying law to become a lawyer. Melodie, unlike her siblings, has no idea for her future and plans on letting it take her where it will. Although her parents gave her everything she ever wanted Mel managed to stay unspoiled unlike most kids who's parents give them everything they want. Melodie is polite when it comes to adults.
Currently, Melodie attends the Parfé Elite Academy. She is popular among the students and teachers. Mel is also captain of the cheer squad, student council vice-president (she said it would be too much of a burden for her to be president so took the less demanding job of vice prez), the server on the senior girls volleyball team, and the captain of the senior girls soccer. the only thing that stops this girl is the dark, dingy basement... -

-Flannery Prescot (Nickname is Len.)-
-16-
-Female-
-Flannery is a high-spirited girl with a very large sense of humor and a somewhat tomboy attitude. She always tends to see a bright side to every dark situation and she never gives up in anything, even if it may appear hopeless! Being sixteen, she has her mature moments, but the majority of the time, she a sweet, hyper, bundle of fun! Unfortunately, there is always a dark side to everything, and for Flannery that just happens to be her temper. Tick her off and watch out!-
-Having grown up with three older brothers and her father, Flannery is the only girl in her house-hold. Her mother died only recently, and though the Prescot family is still grieving, Flannery does her best to keep the happy atmosphere up and running! In school she gets average grades, but has many friends due to her friendly nature and of course, good looks. None of this goes to Flannery's head though, and whenever she's in need somewhere, you can bet your life she'll be there to do her best!-

-Amy Evans-
-17-
-Female-
-Amy is more of the bookworm/nerdish type; she loves a good book or a nice game soundtrack! She is usually very quiet at first, but can become more talkative once you get past the shell. She’s also very sensitive, but that doesn’t mean she won’t speak her mind or get angry while crying over a hurtful insult. She rarely ever gets angry, so it’s best not to try to do so. Overall, though, she is usually a happy and seemingly carefree girl. She also carries a stuffed animal around with her that she sometimes talks to; a teddy bear named Sakura. She also has a beautiful singing voice, but unfortunately, stage fright usually gets the best of her, and although she will sing with someone else, you usually can't get her to do a solo. Usually. -
-Amy has been in the top of most of her classes, and almost all of them without a huge effort. Not to mention she loves to play the violin, and does quite well; she is in the lead orchestra chair. Some teachers suggested her being the “next big doctor” or at least the "next biggest thing", although the teenager cannot stand blood nor huge pressures like this. She can sometimes feel the envious stares of the other students, which she tries to ignore. This pretty much killed her social life quite a bit, since no one takes kindly to the “super-nerd“ (her given nickname), despite how nice she can really be. Her parents are a bit concerned that she isn‘t getting enough social time (and will sometimes act closed up in general), and encouraged her to take this opportunity to meet with some of her classmates again.-

-Emmett H. Dean ((Emmett or Dean))-
-17-
-Gender- Male-
-Emmett is usually a very quiet and studious boy. He goes by either Emmett or Dean which ever one people wish to call him by. He's very polite infact there will probably never be a time in which his manner is not polite, unless he loses his temper, which is an achievement to get on Emmett's bad side. Emmett is very easy going and laid back person, but he does have his pet peeves as everyone else. His first is being inconsiderate of others, he cannot stand it when someone is being taken advantage of or are completely ill-mannered. The second pet peeve is yelling, he's not really sure but yelling just gets on his nerves and he can't concentrate on anything. Emmett is also not someone who you'd have a very interesting conversation with, it would mostly be one sided, because, he doesn't much talk about himself. But he is the type of person people would go to for advice on a problem. All in all Emmett is more of a listener than a talker. Now Emmett not just all about his school work and studies, he likes to have fun like any normal kid would; Video games, soccer, Dirt bikes, ATVs, jet skis, swimming, and something that not most 17 year olds could say, he's licensed to fly an airplane.
-Emmett grew up as an only child with his mother and father. His father ran a flight school in the countryside and his mother was a secretary for a big advertising agency. So he grew up in a rather nice lifestyle. Private Schools, Private Tutors, swimming instructors, you name it Emmett pretty much had anything he needed. By the time he was 12 he had already clocked more hours flying then some professional pilots. But growing up he wasn't quite sure what he wanted to do when he grew up, his father insisted that he geta job at an airline but his mother thought he would be much better suited for a as a lawyer or to come work for their advertising company. So Emmett's tried to meet both their approval by continuing to fly and keeping to his studies. And it was a continous cycle he'd study, fly, and attend meetings with his mother. One of the more recent one's was a class reunion, he didn't know his mother had gone to an all girl's school and to be honest he felt horribly out of place and awkward being there. There were some other boy's about his age there but they seemed to feel just as awkward about being there as he did. It wasn't until he recieved the letter did he have to recall the memory of that reunion. His mother's old teacher, he could remember faintly but he couldn't understand why she would want to invite several probably unruly teenagers to her house. But with some comments from his mother he finally complied and packed a trunk.-
