The story is set in modern times in a middle school in the loud, bustling city of Cloryn. Five main charecters, and severel secondary charecters are starting an expensive private school in the same grade, and basically the story starts there. There might be a few plot twists and unexpected events, but thats all I've got for now. 

There will be five main characters, a mix of nice kids and not so nice kids, and up to seven secondary charecters. Also, they'll be a few background charecters if we have enough people joining, who would might be teachers, parents, or kids who only show up once or twice in the story.

Please join!

I'll make a charrie:

Name: Robin Touriss

Gender: Male

Appearance: Shoulder length brown hair, slightly wavy, usually worn in a pony tail. He usually wears the school uniform with the sleeves rolled up and ripped jeans. Has pale skin and grey eyes, with a sprinkling of freckles across his nose and arms. He is very self conscious of the way he looks, and he walks with his head held high, looking down on other kids.

Personality: Stubborn, rude and sort of snobby. He has a large group of friends and is the head of popularity, in his opinion. He enjoys finding people's weaknesses and working with them if he doesnt like them. He is loud and sarcastic, and very funny.

Hobbies: he enjoys ganging up on people and bullying them.

Secrets: He still wets the bed, and is always afraid that his younger brother, who has pretty much the same personality, will tell everyone.

Habits: He tilts his head to the side when annoyed.

Generel Grades: Anything under C.

Others: hates school and enjoys annoying the teachers.

Name: Jake Schessel

Gender: M

Appearance: He has short blonde hair that is kind of leafy at the top. You'll find him brushing it back at times. He also is fairly tall, but he doesn't tower over everyone. He has pale but slightly tanned skin, and he has sky blue eyes. He's athletic, and playing sports are his passion. He also likes shoes, so he'll wear a cool pair every day. 

Personality: He kind of stays in the "sporty kid" click, and in that group, he's more of the popular ones. He can make anyone laugh, and he's also pretty nice to other people outside the group. Sometimes he can get people to laugh too much to the teacher's liking, so he's not a favourite of the teachers. However, he somehow talks his way out of things easily. He's smart, but not a genius, and he has also a quieter side to him.

Hobbies: Baseball, Football, and playing the trumpet.

Secrets: He's actually pretty wealthy, but he keeps it secret because he doesn't want other kids to think that he's a petty rich kid. Also, he likes Charlotte.

Habits: Tapping the pencil on a desk

General Grades: As and Bs

Other: He has a younger sister and an older brother.

Secondary Charecters:

Anybody who joins next

 

Ive decided to start the prologue with just the main charecters, so here we go:

Ravvena:

If anyone at her old school had seen the sobbing, heartbroken mess with the sounds of screaming parents and shattered glass mingled with her wailing cries, Ravvena would never show her face in public again. And she would do anything to avoid that. With her shaking hands, Ravvena wiped her tears away and took a deep breath. School was less than 12 hours away and she needed sleep in order to make a start impressing teachers, and students alike on the most important day of the year.

"Like that's going to happen." She whispered, her voice slightly higher than it would be. Her eyes itched with tiredness, but she couldnt get to sleep with her parents rowing and her little brother crying.

"Deep breaths," she whispered, "Its going to be ok."

Mirium:

Caitlyn twirled Mirium's hair in her fingers, wrapping the silky black hair around her index finger before braiding into a long plait down her back. As her Caitlyn pulled her daughter into a hug, Mirium rolled her eyes and pulled away from her mother.

"Mum!" She hissed.

"Are you ok, honey?" Cailtyn asked, tilting her head to one side. 

"Im fine." Mirium snapped, twirling her hair around her fingers and avoiding her mothers gaze.

"Big day!" Said her mother, "new school. Its ok to be nervous, honey-"

"Yeah, big deal. I told you I'm fine." Mirium stormed out of the room, slamming the door behind her. She climbed the winding staircase until she reached her bedroom. Tracing  her bare feet through the rugged carpet beneath her , Mirium gazed around her to see the all to familiar sight of the neat, colorful room which she was glad to call her own. Her mother was right, though. She was nervous. It was a big deal. Mirium sighed and traced her feet through her dancing routine. It was going to be a long day.

Robin:

"Robin? ROBIN? Yes you!"

"What?" Robin plucked his plugs out of his ears and turned to his angry mother who was watching him like a hawk.

"Don't you "what" me young man, are you ready for school yet?"

"What does it look like?" He muttered under his breath, but he wasnt about to say that to his mother. Instead he chose a non commited grunt and trudged down the halway to get his school bag, which he hadnt packed in the slightest. He stared into the halway to see a red faced, brown haired thirteen year old wearing a crumpled school uniform and a frown. Wasn't the whole point of going to this fancy school to get his grades up? He thought. "Like thats going to happen", he said aloud, pushing the other thought out of his mind. Maybe that was a mistake.

Charlotte:

Charlotte took a deep breath as she tucked her spotless collared shirt into her plaid skirt underneath her stiff blazer. The excited, nervous mess in her stoumach threatened to give back her breakfast, but instead she skipped down stairs and grinned nervously at her mother across the kitchen table. Her mum smiled back.

"Are you ready?"

Charlotte nodded.

"I cant believe it! My little girl is going to middle school."

Charlotte giggled, taping her index finger against her thigh and shifting from foot to foot.

"We're so proud of you. Now, the school bus will be here in a minute, youde better get going."

Charlotte snatched her neatly orginized school bag from the kitchen counter, pecked her mother on the cheek, and dashed out the door towards the local school-bus. Why was she so nervous? She was used to being an A+ star. Peice of cake.

Jake:

Jake trudged down the road in the early morning, birds tweeting from the blossoming trees with the sun stained sky shining down. It was the perfect day, and a perfect day was just what he needed for a perfect destraction. A destraction from the world he was living in. School. Right. Jake had always been a good student. He worked hard, especially in sport. But that was not what he needed distracting from. Charlotte.

Now, I'll be writing each chapter together, that was just for the prologue.

Chapter 1:

In the early morning, Cloryn Middle School seemed to glow in the light of the rising sun. The sweet morning air seemed to brighten the spirit as the school bus rolled into the grounds, carrying five nervous, excited, apprehensive students about to wittness their first day at a new school. 

* * * 

Ravenna cut her way throught the bustling crowds, not wanting to face anybody. Although she had her head held high, searching for an escape route, she still did not mangage to notice a similar desperate figure traveling in the opposite direction. Or not until they collided and stumbled to the ground. Ravvena looked up to see a tall, slightly freckly face with blue eyes staring back at her. 

"I'm sorry..." the boy began awkwardly, his eyes flicking from Ravenna's irritated, red face to her split school bag who's contents where spilling over the road. "Here, let me help you-" the boy reached out to pick up a dark textbook full of beautiful art and colour, but Ravenna snatched it up before he could take a look. The boy's eyes widened. "What are you looking at?" Ravvena snapped, and with that, she hurredly snatched her belongings and dissapeared into the crowd of wide eyed students around them. "I'm Jake!" The boy called after her. Ravvena did not reply.

 

Next chapter later. Guys I would really appreciate it if you could give me some feedback. Thanks!

Oh, and thanks Killim, that was really nice of you!

Name: Miss Zara Sedwell

Age: (I thought I might include this, because she is a teacher, but you can ignore it if you want :) 26 

Class: She teaches Language Arts 

Gender: F

Appearance: Honey blonde hair with perfectly dyed light brown streaks. It is cut perfectly in a layered blonde bob that will go from short to long. She has fair skin, a spotless face, and she has big brown eyes. She's slim and average height. She will wear a pair of bigger framed glasses that has a square shape but also circular. They are brown and a light gold, and they kind of compliment her soft look. She always has a sweet smelling perfume on, and her classroom smells like butterscotch or warm vanilla sugar. She'll usually wear proper and professional clothes that are also aesthetically pleasing, but she always looks nice and people compliment her.

Personality: She's a really good teacher, a lot of kids' favourite, even the bad ones. She's nice and sweet, but she will be strict if she has to. She's funny, and doesn't tend to give out much homework. However, she teaches well, not only using the because she uses the book and isn't boring, but because she also uses real life examples. Many students come to her with their life situations, and she listens and offers to help. She really makes school a safe and comfortable place of refuge.

Hobbies: She loves to play the piano, and likes things that are aesthetically pleasing. Her apartment room is full of aesthetics, along with her classroom.

Secrets: She kind of likes one of the teachers in the school, whom I will post a charrie sheet for.

Habits: Slightly biting her lower lip

General grades: She's a teacher, but because of her method of teaching, the grades that students get in her class are mostly good. 

Other: She has a Japanese bobtail cat named Kiwi.

~~~~
Second charrie! (The other teacher lol) 

Age: 27

Class: Science 

Name: Mr. James Powell

Gender: M

Appearance: He has really short black hair, and dark skin. He's lean but also has an athletic build. He has big dark brown eyes, dimples, and always has a smile on his face. He usually wears a shirt with rolled back sleeves and a tie, and pants and shoes. Sometimes though, he won't wear a tie, on his tired days when he's running late to work.

Personality: He can relate to kids well, and he likes to be funny and sarcastic. He was a sporty kid growing up, so he used to be on the college baseball team, but he quit to study science, his passion. He's the type of person that can make anyone laugh and lighten the mood of a serious atmosphere. He can also cheer people and students up easily. He likes to teach off of the curriculum, and he does so well, but he also makes sports analogies at times. One of the students' favourite teachers.

Hobbies: Playing and coaching junior baseball teams. He also coaches the middle school's baseball team sometimes. He likes to draw too, and is better at it than he thinks.

Secrets: He came from a rough family, where he his dad died as a police officer, his brother went to prison, and his mom had to work often. He is of Jamaican descent. However, his brother just got out of prison and is starting on a much better road. He just doesn't want anybody to know about his past.

Habits: He sometimes tosses a stress ball back and forth between his hands, or a pointer back and forth, etc. Basically whatever he has in his hands.

General grades: His kids get pretty good grades, for the most part, except for that kid or two who makes no effort to try at all.

Other: His apartment is pretty neat, but on the weekends, he either likes to play sports, hang out with friends, or grade papers while watching Netflix.

Chapter 2:

Robin tapped his pencil against his desk continuesly, gazing out of the classroom window to the school yard beyond. Blossoms slowly drifted down from the old cherry tree, swaying too and fro in the breeze, twirling in the sunlight like tiny dancers.

"So, kids, who can tell me how helogens and alkali react when mixed?"

Mr. Powell chatted away in the background and Robin yawned loudly. Why couldn't he be free, like the cherry blossoms?

"Ok, right you are! Fantastic, Charlotte."

Robin glanced across the room to see Ravvena glaring at Charlotte across the room. Typicall. Robin didn't want anything to do with Ravvena, not since they had been partnered on a history project in elementry school. Robin rolled his eyes, wincing at the memory.

"Now, I hope you've been studying hard, because I'm going to have to partner you up for your science projects, guys!"

A groan echoed around the classroom coming from the mouths of 14 tired students wanting to be somewhere else, all except Charlotte and Ravenna who were too busy glaring daggers at each other. "Unbelievabe." muttered Robin.

"Cheer up, guys!" Mr. Powell grinned. "Ok, I've pre selected your groups, and I'll just read out the name list now."

"Ravvena and Charlotte." The girls looked taken aback, then the grudgingly went to stand next to each other in the corner.

"Melony T. and Zack."

"Amanda and Whitney." 

Mr. Powell read through almost the entire class before he read out:

"Robin and Miriam." Robin scowled and dragged his feet towards Miriam's desk.

And that just leaves Jake. Sorry, mate, you'll havee to be in a trio. Charlotte, Ravvena? Do you mind?"

"No!" Smiled Charlotte.

"Yes." snapped Ravenna."

"Come on, kids, looks like you're going to have to co-operate."

Jake slowly shuffled towards the girls as the bell rung.

"Good luck, kids!" Grinned Mr. Powell.

Chapter 3

Miriam hissed like an angry goose and snatched the pencil oit of Robin's hand.

"How did you even manage to get into this school if you cant spell sodium?"

Robin groaned and stretched his arms above his head, yawning. "Im just tired," he grumbled, "do we have to study at recess?"

"At the rate you're going, yes!" Snapped Miriam, tapping her foot impatiently on the plain grey carpet. She fidgeted anxiously, watching the other children playing, yelling and chatting around her.

Robin suddenly grinned. "Hey, why dont you throw salt at a science teacher?

Miriam rolled her eyes. "Why?"

"Because its assault!"

Mirium groaned, but the sides of her mouth tweaked up into a small smile.

"Fine." She muttered, "we'll study tomorrow. Extra hard."

"Yes captain!" Grinned Robin, saluting. "But I didnt know you were so fussed about school work. I mean, their just grades."

"I'm not." Miriam scowled. "I dont care at all."

"Oh, ok." Said Robin, alarmed at Mirium's intensity.

Suddenly, Jake, Charlotte and Ravvena crashed towards them, looking worried and frantic. 

"Umm..hi, do I know you?" Miriam said coldly.

"Be quiet, Miriam." Sighed Robin, alarmed at the groups intensity. "Guys, what's up?"

"We-we need your help!" Charlotte spluttered, tears in her eyes.
