EPISODE ONE: RAVEN SECTION

"Knock... knock...", Ashley knocked on the door of the Headmistress office while biting down on her lower lip to ease her nervousness. She had come to get registered and get settled in her dorm. She held her hand up ready to knock once again but she received a slight audible voice from the inside saying.

" Come in please ", said Headmistress with an irritated voice.o

Ashley moved her hands towards the door nob and turned it, opening the door. She strolled in with her head lower as her dark red hair was tied up in a messy bun which left her face clear with not a single strand of hair blocking her perfect features. Ashley was very nervous as she was here alone and also this was the first time she was attending school. Demon school, to be more accurate. She had been home schooled since she was little, and that made her very nervous. Nervous about the knew people she was about to meet. She mastered up the courage and raised her gaze up from the floor she had been looking at as she came to a halt.

The large office room was adored with flowers in beautiful decorated floral vase in each of the four corners of the room. There was a large brown floor to ceiling french window with a lively view of trees and flowers sitting outside it. Beside the glass window were two maroon flags hanging on each side of the window with a flame symbol in the middle. Book filled large cardboards were against the walls with a gorgeous woman sitting busily at her desk while frowning at the document she held in hand. Ashley's eyes found themselves been glued the perfectly outstanding woman before her. The Headmistress face had a hint of anger written on it. Apart from the irritated expression on the Headmistress. Ashley noticed she was very young looking and as well as beautiful.

Ashley was not only speechless but also surprised enough though she knew she shouldn't be, because it was known that demons could age up to or over a thousand years and still look young and her still be strong, in fact stronger and more powerful. And it was also know the demons could only die if their heart was ripped out or they were stabbed in the spin. The woman had fine thin lips which were coated red, slightly point nose, thin brows with complicated her bright black eyes with had anger in them. She wore a dark blue suit with her jet black hair laid down as it fell down her shoulders, while Ashley's hair was tied up.

" Useless. Totally, useless ", the Headmistress said with her voice carrying an angry tone. " I will not do such a thing ", she said as she tossed the paper to the side.

" Umm. Good morning Ma'am. "

Ashley said in a soft tone as she slowly took a step forward.

Sounding apologetic she remarked.

" Oh. l didn't see you there. I'm really sorry I had been so much engrossed in my reading I didn't realize you had come in. " She gestured towards the one of the seats in front of her. " Have a seat, dear. "

" Thank you Ma'am", Ashley sank into the left seat. " But, no need to apologise Ma'am l just got in. It hasn't been a while. " She lied.

" Okay then, well I'm glad you didn't wait long. Sometimes I can get really a

engrossed in my work. l'll go on and introduce myself. I'm Miss Isolde Sears. The Headmistress of Green Valley Falls. You are? ",

" Ashley, Ma'am. Ashley Lace ",

" Are you here to get registered in? Or this is there something else you come to for ",

The Headmistress questioned because of the document in Ashley's hand.

Ashley replied in her sweet innocent voice." Yes Ma'am, I came to get registered in. "

" Can see the document? I need to verify and also check the house you are to be assigned to. " with Miss Isolde's had stretched out, Ashley met her halfway through, handing out the printed document.

She stared at the paper then seemed to remember something, then looked up.

" Please, come me Miss Isolde. Ma'am makes me feel older than my sixty years. " She smiled showing her peal white teeth.

" What the f...

" No. Curse words please " , Miss Isolde said in a calm yet firm tone. " Here, in Green Valley Falls we have no cursing policy. Curse words have been proofed to promote and caused aggression. Anyone who uses curse words will be subjected to serving detention or worse. "

" Y...yes Ma'am. I mean, y...yes Miss Isolde ", Ashley gulped hard as her eyes were locked in Miss lsolde's tension filled gaze.

" I have checked your paper and everything is confirmed." She said with a slight pause then slowly.

" I'll just get your house number. Along with some other paper and you will be fine to go.

Miss Isolde began to search for the document which contained the available dorm in the school but school just couldn't find it anywhere on her desk. She checked in her desk drawers and in the last drawer she found and document she was looking for.

" House nine, room three in section D is available. I'm sure the Dove section is where you belong. ", Miss Isolde said referring to Ashley's calmness and gentleness.

" Don't let what you see fool you. I might be a trap know ", came a voice full with mockery.

The voice startled Ashley as she hadn't expected to hear this familiar voice so soon. She heart seen to drop in sadness. She felt a slight tension in her body.

"Ajax...", she whispered to herself. Her breathing seizing before it continued.

" Ah. Meet one of our very well known star delinquent of Green Valley Falls. ", commented Miss Isolde with sarcasm dancing in her voice as she showed her bright slime.

" What brings you to my office. You have the here there times this week excluding today's visit. "

She sighed highly out of stress. Shook her head and placed her hand on her forehead as to stop the arising headache. Ajax was very troublesome, but she knew Killian was worse. What was she to expect from them, especially Killian. It was obvious the day she set eyes on the boy, that he was just like his father but Isolde thought with Okelane begin mother of the boy. He would be different. But it looks like the saying ' Like father, like son " is true after all.

" What brings you here. And who did you fight with this time around. ", Miss Isolde questioned but realized it was stupid.

" Why? I missed you, that's why. Can't I visit my favorite person ", he was with sarcasm evident in his tone.

" You know what? Forget it, I just don't know why I asked. Where's Killian. His must be here by now. "

She said.

Ajax was standing with a bruised cheek as he had a smirk on his face. But his expression darkened. His green eyes turning red in rage upon hearing his enemy's name, Killian Donovan. He had just gotten out of a fight with Killian and it wasn't even his fought. Ajax was strolling through the school hallway when he was pushed. Ajax turned to look for who had pushed him but before he could even make a complete turn a hard punch came fly a him right at his left cheek. Blood spilled in to his mouth, some sipping out to the corner of his lips. Ajax felt a wave a rage in his heart and decided to return the gesture. But with stronger force. Soon the hallway turned into a wrestling ground. Mr. Winters walked in on them and asked them to visit the Headmistress's office. And that was how was he got the red bruise and why he was here now. But he lied to Miss Isolde saying that he was here to visit and because he'd miss her.

" Have a seat I'll deal with you later. ", she stood up and teleported away, after giving Ajax a warning gaze.

Ajax slowly walked towards the empty seat and sat down. He hesitated for a moment, trying to gather this thought before he spoke.

" Hello. ", he said in a mocking tone.

"It's been a while. I mean since I last saw you. "

" Jax. Could you please not do this? ", Ashley begged with her head now turned to face Ajax.

" But you look so good when you suffer. It brings out your eyes. ", Ajax said with the corner of his lips curled up while he held her chin looking intensely into her sliver eyes.

Ashley tried moving her face away but he's hold was tight and getting tighter with every move she made. She held his hand and with a pian filled voice said.

" Please stop your hurting me. "

Ajax ignored her complain and used his other hand to grab her hair, while freeing her chin. Ashley thought he saw about to pull her hair. So she did the one thing that came flying into her mind at the moment. She gave him a loud bewildering slap, which was caught by Mr. Winters who just teleported into the office. Ashley was was as shocked and surprised as Ajax even though she had planned to do it.

Ajax had his face turned to the other side because of the force making it impossible for Mr. Winters or Ashley to see his pained expression.

Ajax deeply hurt by Ashley's actions. He only intended to let down her hair, as to cascade down her shoulder. That was his only intention. To cover her neck.

She gasped trying to find the right words before she spoke. " Huh...I so sorry I didn't...

" Hmm", said Mr. Winters, making his presence known. " Another delinquent. "

" What's going on ", Miss Isolde reappeared into the room.

" Nothing ", Ajax said returned to his carefree behaviour.

Mr. Winters got angry, " I'll tell you. We have a new delinquent, Miss Isolde. "

Miss Isolde looked in shock. She sat down and said. " Miss Lace, I'll ask you to go to the Ravens Section. House twenty. Room five. You roommates have the room's key. You may take your leave. "

Ashley opened her mouth but was cut off by Mr. Winters. Ashley stood up and left the room. Feeling not only disappointed by worried about what Uncle Dimitri and Aunt Agatha would think. She walked through the empty hallway trying hard to forget the incident that took place between Ajax and her.
