we were a bit scared since we had never done anything wrong and had never even held a proper conversation with the principle, Sam was shivering and Lily was mumbling god knows what, since we were the most innocent bunch in our school, we walked into the principal's office, the walk was very quiet and frightening, we had just opened the door and all the teachers yelled congratulations! Sam almost fainted and lily actually did faint since we had no idea what was going on. The principle walked towards us with an envelope in his hands and showed us a letter from dragon. Now for those of you who don't know, dragon is the most prestigious university in the world, the university is called dragon because each of its alumni has achieved something normal people only dream of, getting accepted to this university means that you will reach great heights in your life. Continuing the story, my face lit up with joy as THE DRAGON UNI had also offered me a full scholarship which is completely unheard of.
We were allowed to leave school early because we are the only people this school managed to send to dragon university. We all ran to Sam's house to celebrate, his mother made us a full Christmas dinner, it was the best meal of my life. After the meal we went out, went to the arcade and spent 5 hours there which was awesome since the last 2 years all we did was study. We played every game there till we got bored, we had the best time. Three days later on the day of my graduation, lily was announced as valedictorian and she bored us to death with that stupid speech, I mean even the principle was snoring right in front of her, even though she is my friend I could not for the life of me stay awake. After we all officially graduated school we were joy ridden since my birthday was also in 2 days and I could finally leave the hell they call an orphanage. We left the school grounds and were going towards our favorite spot in this godforsaken town, it was an abandoned castle at the top of a hill with a killer view, on the way to this paradise we saw the liquor store and I immediately rushed in, although we had to bribe the cashier, we did get a nice bottle of absolut vodka. We went up the castle, it was getting dark outside and we reached the top just in time for the sunset, we opened the bottle and got super drunk in anticipation of entering this long awaited new chapter of our lives. But sadly the moment did not last, as I walked home and saw the satanic sister standing in front of the gate just waiting to agonize me, she came near me, took a sniff and hit me to her hearts content with a wooden stick. I was hospitalized and had also missed my birthday, I returned home 2 weeks after that incident and found out that the lucifer daughter of a sister was arrested for assaulting a minor. I packed all my belongings and left the orphanage, I went to live with sam, his parents are just the sweetest, they let me stay, didn't punish and they gave me the most delicious food, after staying a day at sam's house we found out that our reporting day at dragon had been preponed and it was in 1 day.
we left the town immediately and barely made it the uni in time for the orientation since this university was on a private island 30 km from the shore of england, it was an island that didn't belong to any country and was recognized as private shores by a majority of countries, to our surprise the island had everything one could need like restaurants, cafes, stores, bars and also a whole amusement park, we were so excited to start college especially lily, she had already bought all the material she would need for the 1st semester.
This university as mentioned before is the undisputed top university in the world. Dragon is top in every field, from science to politics and ironically, the university has no idea of its own origins, like when it was established or by whom, no records of it exist. The buildings in this university were an architectural marvel, the medieval style buildings and paths with a giant castle in the middle. There seemed nothing too special about it all if you think about it, except that the living conditions for medieval era people would be too harsh here. On the island, there was no farmland or anyplace for food production, the island was small and 90% was covered by town, in the remaining 10%, there was a park, a park so beautiful and mysterious that anyone could wander there for days and not care about anything. The park was definitely artificially made since it had a giant lake and a pretty nice waterfall in it but people say that no construction has been done on the island ever since the university was founded, although no one even knows of its origins so how could they possibly know of the construction fact.
The dragon entrance ceremony was starting in 15 minutes and we found ourselves to be lost in this massive university. We were running towards a map we saw in the distance, and BAM I collided with someone, I fell on my ass and dropped my phone along with my guides, I opened my eyes and saw that I was covered in sheets of paper and before I knew it I instinctively apologized, then I heard "its okay" in a woman's voice, I looked up and saw a girl sitting there, I questioned to myself "is she the one I collided with?", I looked again just this time with attention and she was the most beautiful woman I had seen. Her perfect face paired with hair made of gold and those piercing blue eyes that would remind someone of the ocean. we got up and started picking the papers, she apologized for not being careful and all I could do was nod, she left and my dumbass friends started with their bullshitting of how I couldn't even utter a word, I seriously wanted to punch them in the face, but we reached the map and found that we were beside the auditorium all along, it was just so massive we thought it might be the main building. The entrance ceremony was starting. A sloppily dressed middle aged man came up to mic and said "welcome to dragon I am your dean Norman pendragon." He left after saying this and a professor came up to the podium and explained to us everything about the dragon university.
We were surprised for a bit but then overheard some students sitting in front of us saying that he is a special case of genius even among geniuses, how had proven the starting and ending of the universe, but he was also an extremely strange guy for him almost never leaving his office and spending fortunes on weird artifacts of the ancient times. It was awkward for me to be sitting there since he was the first person I met that had the same surname as me, while he was leaving we made eye contact and in that short moment it felt as though I couldn't breath and would die in the a second, he looked away and I started breathing very heavily and was drenched in sweat, my friends looked at me with concern and I told them it was nothing, just a panic attack and fended them off. The orientation was over, it was nothing special, just a normal orientation you would find somewhere else, well except for the death scare.
