It is 7:00PM, and the fledglings are just beginning to awake to prepare for a Monday night of school. The early risers are already arriving at breakfast, and the vampyres are awakening as well. Another night is about to begin under the meager light of a barely visible moon.

Philana woke to the steady buzz of her alarm clock. Sleepily she banged around on her nightstand a few times until she hit her mark and the buzzing stopped.
Still yawning, she trudged into her bathroom and took a shower before heading over to breakfast. What a Monday.

Lian sat and watched the sun finally submit to the darkness of the night, and she sighed contentedly. She had been awake all day; going sleepless didn't tire or bother her.
Sighing, she turned and headed towards the dining hall. She was starving, a result of staying up all day without sleep. She started jogging towards the hall, Cian squeaking in protest in her pocket. She thumped it slightly, quieting him. She smiled to herself.

An echo rang through the nearly empty grounds as the door to the boys dorm slammed shut. The soft rhythmic thud of his feet created a steady beat as he ran to the dining hall. He had been here just over a week, and was starting to get the hang of the change from day to night, though he still missed the feeling of the sun's rays on his skin, though he wasn't to upset once he realized how the night's breeze felt against his strangely light mark. The pounding of his feet appeared to be hypnotic to the animals of the grounds because they followed him where ever he went, but they continued even after he slowed to a walk in front of the dining all. "Would you leave me alone please? I need to get something to eat and get to class, and I can't concentrate on my studies with you guys following me." He pleaded. A look of disappointment swept the ocean of animals, but they all eventually turned and left. While he bade them all farewell he caught sight of the other young fledgling. "She's younger, and yet I get stuck with the height deficiency.." He sighed and rolled his eyes, walking slowly towards the hall.

Philana grabbed some food and slid into an empty table, looking around at the few other students already inside. It seemed forever ago- about a year and a half, since she was a fourth former now- that she had been Marked. She had had only one friend in her year, though, who had rejected the Change and died. Her only other ones had either Changed or been transferred to another House. She sighed, suddenly feeling very alone.

Rowan blinked awake to the sound of her alarm clock. She hit the stop button and muttered under her breath, "Stupid alarm..." After getting ready, she yawned and left the dorms, heading in the direction of the dining hall. When she got her breakfast, she saw a girl she recognized but didn't really know all that well ((Philana)). She shrugged and walked over to her. "Hey," she said with a smile.

It took careful manuevering, and fast movements to avoid running into the much taller students that surrounded him. "Hey." He mumbled, having to avoid a group of students. Never in his life had being short annoyed him quite as much as it did at the House of Night. It was as if his petite stature made him unworthy of recognition here.
Once he had gotten his salad and V8, he made his way towards the outer tables when he caught sight of a few girls from his Equestrian Studies class. Still, he had to spin and duck to get towards the table where the pair were. When he had finally made his way over to them he set his tray down with a humph. "You'd think that people would have learned some manners after they started the change, but I guess Nyx's blessing doesn't do anything for our morals.." He said to them, shaking up his V8 vigoriously. His biggest pet peive was the layers in the V8 juice. It bugged him to no end. "So, I'm new here, and I'm kind of ashamed to say I never really caught your names." His voice sounded much louder then his little body seemed to be able to project.

As Lian walked into the dining hall, she saw the two girls she recognized with a new boy. And he was short. Short. Didn't matter his age, all Lian saw that he was short.
Screeching in delight with a huge grin on her face, she ran through the crowd, tiping trays and bumping until she reached the boy. Not giving a moment for introductions, she latched herself onto him in a big, and strong for her age and size, hug, smiling like crazy.

Rowan turned to the boy and said, "Hey there, I'm Rowan. Its okay. What's your name?" She then leaned away, shocked as a girl, she thought her name was Lian, latched onto the new boy with a hug. Laughing a little, she smiled and said, "Wow."

"Philana, but everyone calls me Ana," Philana said, laughing as a girl came up to the boy. "What's yours?"

"Gah." He screamed, taking a larger step then normal to counteract her sudden weight. "Do you mind?" He asked a little impatiently. He had never been one to get attacked, even if it was by a girl. "You know, people do actually mind getting attacked." He gave a weak half smile. "Name's Michael. Nice to meet you Rowan, Ana." He gave a small nod to each of them in turn, then looked over his shoulder at the girl. "And you, what's your name?" His breathing had returned it's regular self. "And why did you feel the need to latch onto me? I mean, I know I'm irresitable and all, but still." His lips turned up into a cocky smile. "But seriously now, would you mind?" His voice turned unusually cool and collected. It was his acting voice, though the girls wouldn't realize it. He had only been here for a few days after all.
[Yes, I am actually in drama class, but irl I'm 6' even.]

Lian just smiled into his sweatshirt, and let go unwillingly. "I'm Lian." She smiled, then bounced over to get food and jumped into the seat next to Rowan. She smiled at everyone, then dug in.

Ana stared for a moment, then sighed and went back to her breakfast. "I've been here for about a year and a half, but I don't think I've seen you before, Lian... what grade are you all in?"
Her parents had freaked when she'd been Marked, and decided to jump on the "new life" thing by sending her literally across the globe, from Australia to Maine. But she had to admit, she liked snow.

"I'm a fourth former," Rowan said, pointing at the winged heart emblem on her black jacket, "I transfered here at the beginning of the school year from Florida. Oh, and by the way, its nice to meet y'all." She smiled and began to eat her food.

"Yes, well. It's nice to meet you and all Lian, but why did you feel the need to attack me?" He asked, sliding into a seat, shedding his black sweatshirt to reveal a tight silk button up with the third former's insignia on it. "I'm a third former. Just got here a week ago actually. It's not much of a change from my old school. More people though." He laughed. Alaska didn't even have the population of Rhode Island, so it wasn't a surprise to anyone who paid attention to eco.pop. studies. With a click, his V8 opened, flooding the near by area with the rich scent of tomato juice. He took a long drink before clearing his throat.
